revelation

If God has something important to say He says it two or three times. In Revelation 18 God warns us America will be destroyed in ONE HOUR twice. As it is written it will be done. God knows all things and God knows we will not turn away from our sin (as a nation) So the ancient warning to the Jews that IF they forsook the God of their fathers they would be destroyed, NOW that curse falls on America. We would have healed Babylon but she would not be healed, sudden destruction comes. I have seen it.

Donald Trump Must Win: United Nations Plans One World Government, Anti-Christ and Mark of the Beast. And we are going to talk about what is at stake in this next election between Kamala Harris & Donald Trump. The 2024 election will not only shape our nations fate but the nations around the world. We are going to look at the bigger picture of what is going on the world right now. Donald Trump is the only thing standing in the way of Global one world government. Over 2,000 years ago the Apostle John warned us of this in the book of Revelation that a one world government with a global leader called the Anti Christ would emerge. We are going to take a look at a John Rich Tucker Carlson Interview in which he explains the Anti Christ, One World Government and the Mark of the Beast. For the first time in world history all these things are possible within on lifetime. The book of Revelation is playing out before our very eyes. I am also going to play a video from a United Nation official stating there plans for a global government. The United Nations know that Donald Trump stands in their way from accomplishing this. They are terrified of Donald Trump because we will fight against a global order and put America first. This is why Donald Trump is experiencing such fierce opposition such as impeachments, lawfair, lawsuits, and an attempt on his life. Donald Trump is standing in the way of the United Nations plans for a one world government. #endtimes #donaldtrump #elections2024 😎Invest in Gold with Birch Gold -Add Gold in Your 401K or IRA Today -Secure Your Financial Future in Uncertain Times Get Your Free Birch Gold Kit Today: https://birchgold.com/TornCurtain 😎Give a One-Time Gift 💰Pay Pal Donations: https://paypal.me/torncurtain?locale.x=en_US 💰Cash App: https://cash.app/$torncurtain 💰Zelle Donations: josh@torncurtain.org 😎Become a Monthly Partner for as Low as $5 Per month 👊https://www.patreon.com/torncurtain 👊MAIN YOUTUBE CHANNEL (Christianity) 👊PLEASE HELP ME GET T0 100,000 FOLLWERS- SUBCRIBE TODAY: 👊https://www.youtube.com/c/TornCurtainIJoshuaSimone 😎What is the Main Torn Curtain Channel About: https://youtu.be/HfkiH2CDARQ 👊Torn Curtain (Politics & News) 👊https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMcASQivhT1VI37e_tO7GOQ 👊 Torn Curtain (Evangelism & Apologetics) 👊https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWyGdvzLA6wA3-d5NA0r7OA ☑️LET'S CONNECT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ❤️Linktree: https://linktr.ee/torncurtain.org ☑️Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TornCurtainIJoshuaSimone ☑️Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/torncurtain.org ☑️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/torncurtainorg/ ☑️Twitter: https://twitter.com/torncurtainorg ☑️Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1272482 ☑️Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@torncurtain.org ☑️Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/torn-curtain-by-joshua-si 📧Join My Email Subscribers List: http://eepurl.com/hGeh4L 📧Contact for Channel: josh@torncurtain.org 😎About Josh: 🏫Education: BS Degree from NYU in Counseling MA Degree Theology Equivalent from Bethel University (Not Bethel Redding) and ORU University Studied Inner Healing and Deliverance at School of Ministry Graduate of Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Business Mini MBA Program ⛪Ministry Experience Several Years as a Youth & College Pastor Deacon At New Life Fellowship church home of Emotional Healthy Discipleship started By Pete Scazzero Mentored by Pete Scazzero and worked under him for 5.5 years Led living waters and cross current which is a program for the sexual broken and the LBGTQ community A ministry leader in Inner Healing and Deliverance for 8 years A US and International Chaplain Currently leading in a network of House Churches in NYC Torn Curtain promises to bring you the best and latest Christian content.

You can get the magazine here: https://lotuseaters.com/islander-2-11-09-24 QUESTIONS "Related to your post of death by heroism. "Is creating and nurturing life a superpower, e.g. creating families? "I can scarcely imagine the amount of joy there is in been involved as a parent, and seeing the progression in your daughter for example. "Why do the man-children avoid it? What is the fear?" "Hi Stef, I'm a couple of weeks behind on your show and working on catching up! If this has been mentioned before then please skip over my question :) I heard on the lotus eaters podcast that you have contributed an article in their latest issue of the islander magazine, which had me immediately purchase it. As a UK citizen I find their podcast to be very useful in navigating the maelstrom that my country has become over the past 2 months, so I am excited to hear that my favourite guide in moral reasoning (you) is collaborating with them again. It will be a few weeks before it is printed/posted out so I was wondering if you could drop any hints about the subject of your article? If you think that it's best that I wait to find out for myself then I fully understand!" "Apologies if it has been asked before, but I read implicit in your philosophy that God (if such an omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent being exists) has not made his approval known of any particular religion. Is the question of God and any potential source of divine revelation outside of the scope of your interest, does it seem like God has not approved of any religion or that any and all miracles are not credible, or something else entirely? "I ask this because as a Catholic I glean divine approval of Traditional Catholicism (such as it was before John XXIII) from the miracles of Catholic saints and the eucharist (and besides that the truth of the testimony of many Catholic martyrs)." "How can you tell the difference between a legitimate desire or need and a narcissistic impulse that demands to be satisfied? Sometimes I feel like the boundary between self-care and self-indulgence is blurry." "I posted a lengthy question in this thread a few hours ago on my relationship struggles. But then I remembered the RTR AI and pasted my question to it and received a thorough and amazingly helpful response. I’ve deleted my question here to give others more opportunity to get theirs answered, and want to call out the RTR AI and its benefits." "What do you think of the new YouTube policy where they will restrict/hide fitness & exercise content for teenagers because 'it can lead to negative self beliefs and body image disorders'" "Hi Stef, I'm noticing recently on Gab and other right majority platforms a marked rise in hatred for capitalism, ultimately basing their criticisms on things that are the direct results of state action. Why is it that many right-leaning people clearly understand the social consequences of government action, but appear to dismiss it entirely when it comes to economics?"

P6 Sunday, September 15, 2024 — HOLY SPIRIT LEAD! God told me to open the Holy Bible where He moves me and preach. God had me open to Daniel and then blew the page to Daniel 7, which is perfect to parallel with The Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ which we’ve been preaching and reading from over the last month as requested by my Mom. All the glory to God. PROVERBS 16:3 “Commit your works to the LORD and your thoughts will be established.” NKJV 🇺🇸❌37

Cause Before Symptom - With Your Host James Carner Are We Living In Satan’s Second Season? I never made this connection until I saw a video on TikTok showing Jesus’ image on a Byzantine coin. Are we living in Satan’s short period? The Byzantine Empire lasted for over 1,100 years. It was founded in 330 AD and fell to the Ottoman Empire in 1453. The Tartaria theory may be involved as well. Many have been saying we live in the time after satan was released after 1,000 years of Jesus’ reign on Earth. Did Jesus die and come back to reign 330 years later? The Byzantine Empire did put Jesus on coins. This practice began in the 10th century and was a significant departure from the traditional Roman practice of depicting emperors and mythological figures. The portrayal of Jesus on coins was a reflection of the Byzantine Empire's strong Christian identity and its desire to promote religious devotion. This doesn’t mean Jesus was here for a thousand years yet. The Bible, specifically the Book of Revelation, provides a detailed description of the New Jerusalem, but it doesn't give explicit measurements or calculations of its size. Instead, the text uses symbolic language and imagery to convey its vastness and grandeur. It describes the city as a cube, with its length, width, and height all being equal. The angel measuring the city finds it to be 12,000 stadia (a unit of ancient Greek measurement) in each dimension. This equates to approximately 1,400 miles or 2,250 kilometers. While this might seem like a literal measurement, it's important to remember that the New Jerusalem is a heavenly city, not a physical one. The symbolic nature of its description suggests that its size may represent something more than just a physical dimension. It could symbolize the vastness of God's kingdom, the abundance of blessings, or the infinite nature of eternal life. Ultimately, the exact size of the New Jerusalem is a matter of interpretation and faith. The Bible's description is meant to inspire awe and wonder, rather than to provide precise measurements. I have read that some scholars say the kingdom is a square or box 1400 miles high, too. If Jesus did return and the new Jerusalem was 1400 miles wide and long plus high, there would have to be there if it was physical. So if it was spiritual, then perhaps no evidence would be left. Where was the Byzantine Empire? At its greatest extent, the Byzantine Empire covered much of the land surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, including what is now Italy, Greece, and Turkey along with portions of North Africa and the Middle East. Many emperors ruled the Byzantine Empire, including:
 * Constantine I: Ruled from 306–337, he moved the capital to Constantinople and made Christianity the state religion
 * Justinian I: Ruled from 527–565, he led the empire to its greatest territorial extent since the fall of the Western Roman Empire
 * Heraclius: Ruled from 610–641
 * Leo III: Ruled from 717–741
 * Basil II: Ruled from 976–1025
 * Alexios I: Ruled from 1081–1118
 * Manuel I: Ruled from 1143–1180
 * Michael VIII: Ruled from 1261–1282
 * Constantine XI: Ruled from 1449–1453
 The Byzantine Empire was an autocratic state that lasted from around 330 AD to 1453. The emperor, or basileus, was the head of the government and church, commander-in-chief of the army, and controlled the state finances This would mean the Breakspeare family would have been ruling the world during Jesus’ reign. The dark ages started around the year 476 AD or 146 years after the beginning of the Byzantine rule. Could history have been re-written to remove Jesus altogether and be replaced by the Breakspeare reign? My studies have shown the Breakspear family did control Europe and the Middle East from around the years 1000 to 1500 and this is when the Orsini clan took over. During the dark ages, not a lot of advancement happened. Not a lot of progressive movements either. The term "Dark Ages" is a historical periodization that refers to the period in Europe between the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the Renaissance. It's often associated with a decline in classical learning and culture. Here's why it's called that: * Lack of written records: Compared to the classical period, there's a significant decrease in the number of written records that have survived from this time. This made it difficult for later historians to study and understand this period. * Shift in cultural focus: The focus of society shifted away from the classical ideals of Rome and Greece, leading to a perceived decline in intellectual and artistic pursuits. * Religious influence: The rise of Christianity and its influence on European culture and society was seen as a departure from the classical traditions. However, it's important to note that the term "Dark Ages" is a somewhat controversial one. Many historians argue that it's an oversimplification of a complex period and that there was significant cultural and intellectual activity happening during this time. In recent years, there has been a growing movement to reevaluate the Middle Ages and recognize the important contributions made during this era Christian scriptures do describe a period of peace followed by a resurgence of evil, but the details and interpretations vary among denominations and theologians. Here's how some interpret the relevant passages: * Revelation 20:1-3: Satan is bound for 1,000 years, but then released for a short time. This suggests a period of peace followed by his return. * Revelation 20:7-10: After Satan's release, there's a final battle ("Gog and Magog") where he is ultimately defeated and thrown into the lake of fire. This implies a final confrontation with evil after a period of his influence. Interpretations of these passages differ: * Literal Interpretation: Some believe the 1,000 years will be a literal period of peace on Earth before Satan's return and the final battle. * Symbolic Interpretation: Others view the 1,000 years as a symbolic representation of a long period of relative peace, possibly interspersed with smaller-scale conflicts. The entire world right now is surrounding Israel. Well it seems that way. It’s just the east and not NATO who supports Israel. Some say this is when gog and Magog from the east will try and destroy Israel which it really looks like they could try soon. It evens says Israel will be a thorn in the side of the entire world which it is right now. Arguments for: 1. The Prophetic Timeline: The Book of Revelation describes a period of peace (often interpreted as the 1,000-year reign of Christ) followed by Satan's release for a short time. This could suggest that we are currently in this "short season" of Satan's renewed influence. 2. Increasing Global Challenges: Many argue that the world is experiencing a rise in moral decay, societal unrest,and natural disasters. These challenges could be seen as evidence of Satan's increased activity, as described in biblical prophecies. 3. Technological Advancements and Moral Dilemmas: The rapid pace of technological advancement has led to new ethical dilemmas and societal challenges. Some argue that these developments are being used by Satan to sow division and confusion. 4. A Growing Sense of Spiritual Apathy: Many people feel disconnected from spiritual matters or are uncertain about the existence of God. This could be interpreted as a sign of Satan's success in blinding people to spiritual truths. Counterargument: 1. The Timing of the 1,000 Years: It's possible that the 1,000-year period of peace hasn't yet occurred. The Bible doesn't provide a specific timeline for these events. 2. Natural Cycles and Human History: The challenges faced by humanity could be attributed to natural cycles,historical patterns, and human choices rather than direct demonic influence. 3. The Role of Free Will: Humans have free will and are responsible for their own actions. While Satan may tempt and influence people, he cannot force them to sin. Here are some common conspiracy theories related to the idea of a "Satanic short season": 1. The New World Order: Some conspiracy theorists believe that a secret global elite, often referred to as the "New World Order," is working to establish a one-world government. They argue that this is part of Satan's plan to control humanity. One of the most pervasive conspiracy theories related to a "Satanic short season" is the notion of a New World Order.This theory suggests that a secret global elite, often associated with powerful institutions like the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund, is working to establish a one-world government. Proponents of this theory argue that this global elite is controlled by Satanic forces and is implementing a plan to undermine national sovereignty, erode individual freedoms, and establish a totalitarian regime. They often cite events like the creation of supranational organizations, globalization, and the promotion of a globalist agenda as evidence of this conspiracy. 1. Illuminati Control: The Illuminati, a secret society that allegedly existed in the 18th century, is often cited as a powerful force behind global events. Some conspiracy theorists believe that the Illuminati is still active and is working to promote Satan's agenda. Another popular theory involves the Illuminati. This secret society is believed to have originated in the 18th century and is often associated with Freemasonry. Conspiracy theorists claim that the Illuminati has survived and continues to exert immense influence over world events. They argue that the Illuminati is controlled by Satanic forces and is working to promote a globalist agenda, undermine religious institutions, and establish a New World Order. Evidence often cited includes the presence of Illuminati symbols in popular culture, the influence of certain individuals on world events, and the alleged connections between the Illuminati and other secret societies. Alien Invasion: Some theories suggest that aliens are working with Satan to manipulate humanity and prepare for a global takeover. They often cite crop circles, UFO sightings, and government secrecy as evidence of this conspiracy. The alien invasion theory suggests that extraterrestrial beings are working with Satanic forces to manipulate humanity and prepare for a global takeover. Proponents of this theory often cite UFO sightings, crop circles, and government secrecy as evidence of alien involvement. They argue that aliens are using advanced technology to control human minds, manipulate governments, and sow discord among nations. Some believe that aliens are preparing the way for the Antichrist's arrival, while others suggest that they are simply pawns in Satan's plan. Technological Control: Conspiracy theorists sometimes argue that advanced technology, such as artificial intelligence and surveillance systems, is being used by Satanic forces to control and manipulate people. The technological control theory posits that advanced technology, such as artificial intelligence, surveillance systems,and social media platforms, is being used by Satanic forces to control and manipulate humanity. Proponents of this theory argue that these technologies are being used to gather information about individuals, shape public opinion, and promote a globalist agenda. They often cite the increasing surveillance of citizens, the rise of social media platforms, and the development of artificial intelligence as evidence of this conspiracy. Some believe that these technologies are being used to create a digital prison,where individuals are constantly monitored and controlled. Moral Decline: The decline of traditional values and the rise of moral relativism are often attributed to Satanic influence. Some conspiracy theorists believe that this is part of a deliberate plan to weaken society and prepare for the Antichrist's arrival. The moral decline theory suggests that the decline of traditional values and the rise of moral relativism are part of a Satanic plan to weaken society and prepare for the Antichrist's arrival. Proponents of this theory argue that Satan is promoting a culture of individualism, materialism, and hedonism in order to undermine the moral fabric of society. They often cite the increasing acceptance of homosexuality, abortion, and other controversial issues as evidence of this moral decline. Some believe that this decline is a deliberate attempt to create a society that is more susceptible to Satanic influence. Doesn’t it feel like everything is speeding up? In the last 200 years we went from pulling wagons to Mach 10. We went from candles to LED lights. From an on and off switch to quantum computing. From earth moving to colliding protons. From death at 40 to 80. From dirt to concrete. From tents to skyscrapers. Technological advancements over the past 200 years have been nothing short of revolutionary. Here are some key areas where progress has been most significant: Communication: * 200 years ago: Communication relied on letters, messengers, and sailing ships. News could take weeks or even months to travel across continents. * Last 50 years: The invention of the telephone, radio, television, and the internet has transformed communication. Today, people can instantly connect with others around the world through various digital channels. Transportation: * 200 years ago: Travel was primarily by horse, foot, or sailing ship. Journeys over long distances were slow and arduous. * Last 50 years: The development of automobiles, airplanes, and high-speed trains has revolutionized transportation.Today, people can travel across continents in a matter of hours. 
Computing: * 200 years ago: Computers were large, mechanical devices that could perform simple calculations. * Last 50 years: The invention of the transistor and the development of microprocessors have led to the creation of powerful and affordable computers. Today, computers are ubiquitous and are used in almost every aspect of modern life. 
 Medicine: * 200 years ago: Medical treatments were often based on superstition and folk remedies. Many diseases were incurable. * Last 50 years: Advancements in medical research, technology, and pharmaceuticals have led to significant improvements in healthcare. Today, people have access to a wide range of treatments for diseases that were once fatal. Energy: * 200 years ago: Most energy was derived from human power, animal power, and burning wood. * Last 50 years: The development of fossil fuels, nuclear power, and renewable energy sources has transformed the way we produce and consume energy. Today, we have access to a variety of energy sources that are more efficient and less polluting than traditional methods Hypothesis: Extraterrestrial Assistance in Human Advancement Occam's Razor suggests that the simplest explanation is often the most likely. Given the rapid pace of human technological advancement, especially in recent centuries, one possible explanation is that we have received assistance from an extraterrestrial civilization. Here’s a hypothetical scenario: 1. Ancient Contact: Extraterrestrial beings visited Earth thousands of years ago, possibly during ancient civilizations like the Sumerians or Egyptians. They shared advanced knowledge and technology with humans, influencing our development. 2. Hidden Influence: This extraterrestrial influence has been hidden or disguised throughout human history,integrated into our cultural and religious narratives. 3. Catalyst for Modern Advancement: The knowledge and technology provided by these extraterrestrials served as a catalyst for the Industrial Revolution and subsequent technological advancements, accelerating our development beyond what would be expected from purely human ingenuity. 4. Ongoing Monitoring: The extraterrestrial civilization may continue to monitor our progress and intervene periodically to ensure we stay on a predetermined path, possibly to prevent us from self-destruction or to harvest resources. Supporting Arguments: * Unexplained Phenomena: Anomalous historical events, unexplained artifacts, and ancient texts could be interpreted as evidence of extraterrestrial contact. * Rapid Technological Advancements: The pace of technological progress, particularly in the last few centuries,seems inconsistent with a purely human-driven evolution. * Hidden Knowledge: The existence of hidden knowledge or suppressed technologies could suggest that certain advancements have been deliberately withheld or controlled. Counterarguments: * Alternative Explanations: Many of the phenomena attributed to extraterrestrial influence can also be explained through natural processes, human ingenuity, or historical accidents. * Lack of Direct Evidence: There is no concrete, undeniable evidence of extraterrestrial contact. Claims of UFO sightings, alien abductions, and ancient artifacts can be disputed or misinterpreted. * Occam's Razor Revisited: While Occam's Razor suggests the simplest explanation, it doesn't guarantee its correctness. A simpler explanation might not always be the most accurate one. Conclusion: While there is no definitive proof that we are currently in Satan's "short season," the hypothetical case presented here suggests that it's a possibility. The interpretation of biblical prophecies and the understanding of current world events are complex and often involve subjective judgments. Ultimately, whether or not we believe we are in this period is a matter of faith and personal interpretation. Sources https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8eQer58/ 1.
