Luke 21:7-36
7 They asked Him questions, saying, “Teacher, when therefore will these things happen? And what will be the sign when these things are about to take place?” 8 And He said, “See to it that you are not misled; for many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not go after them. 9 And when you hear of wars and revolts, do not be alarmed; for these things must take place first, but the end will not follow immediately.”
10 Then He continued by saying to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, 11 and there will be massive earthquakes, and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrible sights and great signs from heaven. (The liberal groups in this nation and the conservative groups in this nation will rise up against each other. I have spoken in the past about the swarms of great earthquakes that will strike this nation, I believe we are very, very near to that time. The solar storms will be a large part of the terrible sights and great signs from heaven. )
12 “But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, turning you over to the synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors on account of My name. 13 It will lead to an opportunity for your testimony. 14 So make up your minds not to prepare beforehand to defend yourselves; 15 for I will provide you eloquence and wisdom which none of your adversaries will be able to oppose or refute. (You will be brought up before churches, their pastors and teachers. Do not try to plan what you will say because when it is needed the Holy Spirit will speak through you. I have experienced this very thing. But you will also be brought up before governmental authorities, i.e. courts of law, House and Senate committees, to explain why you hate abortion, why you are against homosexuality, transexuality, same-sex marriage, etc. You will be called bigots, haters, etc. Since these sins have been legalized you will be fined and/or sentenced to prison for "breaking the law" by discriminating against them. The liberals in the Congress will enact laws to this effect in the near future, whatever God means by "near" 16 But you will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, other relatives, and friends, and they will put some of you to death, 17 and you will be hated by all people because of My name. 18 And yet not a hair of your head will perish. 19 By your endurance you will gain your lives. (Yes, even your closest relatives, your parents even, will speak against you and demand that you be put in prison and/or executed because they will fear for the loss of their businesses, their homes, their jobs if they dare to agree with your views)
20 “But when you see Jerusalem (substitute Washington, D.C. for Jerusalem) surrounded by armies (Russian and Chinese), then recognize that her desolation is near. 21 Then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains, and those who are inside the city must leave, and those who are in the country must not enter the city; (This will be the time to flee to the places of refuge the Lord has prepared for you - you will know where they are when it is time, and He will provide the way to get to them) 22 because these are days of punishment, so that all things which have been written will be fulfilled. 23 Woe to those women who are pregnant, and to those who are nursing babies in those days; for there will be great distress upon the land, and wrath to this people; 24 and they will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations (This will be the great slaughter and enslavement I talked about in my first message on this blog "The Destruction Of The USA"); and Jerusalem (again, substitute Washington, D.C.) will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
25 “ There wills be signs in the sun and moon and stars (great explosions of stars and comets and also the immense solar storms that will paralyze huge areas of this country), and on the earth distress among nations, in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, (These will be the unbelievable tidal waves that will hit the coasts)26 people fainting from fear and the expectation of the things that are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. (This will be great cosmic events that the world has never seen) 27 And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 But when these things begin to take place, straighten up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”
29 And He told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees: 30 as soon as they put forth leaves, you see for yourselves and know that summer is now near (This will be the time of the last great harvest of souls in this nation). 31 So you too, when you see these things happening, recognize that the kingdom of God is near. 32 Truly I say to you, this generation (Jesus was not talking about the generation of that time, He was talking about the generation that will be living at the time of these things) will not pass away until all things take place. 33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
34 “But be on your guard, so that your hearts will not be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that this day will not come on you suddenly, like a trap; 35 for it will come upon all those who live on the face of all the earth. 36 But stay alert at all times, praying that you will have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
In the past year or so when God showed me that I would be the head of a homeless ministry in Dallas in a very few years, He also let me know that I would be preparing those people for the endtime harvest. I am now 76 years old and think I will live another 20-25 years, so this will begin shortly. That's how near we are to those times spoken of above. I believe we are the last generation. However, this nation has a few years before those horrible times are upon us - whatever God means by a few years. His judgment has already begun upon this nation with Covid-19, and I believe it will continue to get worse each year until the horrible signs from the heavens begin. The great division in this nation will cause civil war here. The hatred between the political groups is going to continue to get worse regardless of who the President is. The leaning to the left will continue regardless of which party is in power. I fully expect the Supreme Court to declare abortion illegal, and all the Christians will rejoice. However, the Democrats will expand the Supreme Court and pack it with liberal judges who will once again legalize it.
Folks, these times are upon us. People have asked me about other countries, my response is that the Lord has not revealed to me about the rest of the world. I only have knowledge about the USA.
