6-27-22 Approaching the Appointed Day

Approaching the Appointed Day - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2022/02/27/approaching-the-appointed-day-by-daymond-duck/ On Sept. 25, 2015, at the UN, the nations voted 193-0 for “a new universal agenda” called The Transforming Our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Three days later, Pres. Obama spoke at the UN and said, “Global integration (the merging of nations) is an agenda that transcends the narrowly defined interests of nation states.” As I understand it, Obama said merging the nations into a world government is more important than their national sovereignty. These UN Sustainable Development goals, which every nation will be required to keep, are a major step toward the globalist desired world government by 2030 or sooner. God warned everyone that a world government is coming that will last for seven years and be a time of judgment upon the nations (Dan. 7:23, 9:27; Rev. 13:7). Zephaniah said, “Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy” (Zeph. 3:8). “Indignation” is one of the names of the Tribulation Period, a time when God will pour out His fierce anger upon the nations. When it starts, the godless globalists will call it “the wrath of the Lamb” and the “great day of His wrath” (Rev. 6:15-17). (The good news can be found at I Thess. 5:9). Jesus said, “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Matt. 24:21). “Great Tribulation” refers to the last 3 ½ years of the Tribulation Period, a time that will be worse than anything that has ever happened or ever will happen on earth. Jesus said, “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken” (Matt. 24:29). The “tribulation of those days” refers to a future time that will end with the Second Coming of Jesus. Paul said, “And the times of this ignorance (a time when people worshipped gods other than Jesus) God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” (Acts 17:30-31). God has “appointed a day” of global judgment and commanded those that worship gods other than Jesus to repent. On one of his missionary trips, the Apostle Paul went to a place in Athens called Mars Hill (Acts 17:16-31). The Greeks had statues of many gods. They even had a statue to an unknown God. There was a time when God overlooked that kind of ignorance. But God is righteous, and He has appointed a day of judgment for those that reject Jesus (as the coming world government is doing). The resurrection of Jesus is a declaration that God is real, and people need to repent before the appointed day of global judgment arrives. God sent Jesus to suffer and die on a cross for the sins of the world, He raised Jesus from the dead to assure everyone that He is in control, and He will be very angry with those that try to remove every mention of Jesus from government, history, and society. Here are some recent indications that we are approaching the coming day. One, about 2 weeks ago, 2 earthquakes (3.6 and 3.8) struck Israel (no damage), and on Feb. 15, 2022, 2 more earthquakes (3.5 and 3.1) struck Israel again (4 earthquakes in about 2 weeks, no damage). This sudden flurry of earthquakes (and others in nearby nations) may not mean anything, but the wrath of God will cause a great shaking in Israel when Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others attack Israel from the north in the latter days and latter years during the Battle of Gog and Magog (Ezek. 38:8, 16, 18-20). These nations have troops in Syria (north of Israel) now, and many prophecy teachers believe that an attack could be imminent. Two, according to the Bible, rain will return to Israel at the end of the age, and on Feb. 11, 2022, it was reported that winter rains have raised the water level in the Sea of Galilee so that it is now just 4.2 feet short of maximum capacity. The water level is expected to keep rising, and Israel will probably have to open the Degania Dam to prevent flooding. Three, in the Old Testament, Antiochus Epiphanes, a type of the coming Antichrist, exalted himself, desecrated the Temple, persecuted the Jews, cast truth to the ground (lied), and prospered (things that will happen during the Tribulation Period; Dan. 8:11-12). Concerning Special Council John Durham’s report: on Feb. 16, 2022, Franklin Graham said, “For 2 years, the American people endured lie after lie put forth by the media, and Hillary Clinton’s campaign was behind it all.” There appears to be corruption in the media, Dept. of Justice, and the FBI because Hillary has a record of exalting herself and casting truth to the ground, but she keeps on prospering. Citizens will see lots of leaders like Hillary during the Tribulation Period. Four, concerning deceit and corruption in the mainstream media: on Feb. 18, 2022, prophecy expert and former White House Correspondent William Koenig, listed in Koenig’s Eye View, listed 5 scandals the mainstream media is not covering: Hunter Biden’s illegal business dealings. Hillary Clinton’s alleged spying on Trump. What John Durham’s investigation could find in the future. The alleged election theft in several states. Fauci’s role in Wuhan, China. Most of the news outlets are owned in part or influenced by globalists, and they are no longer reliable sources of information. Five, concerning Biden’s efforts to stop a Russian invasion of Ukraine: on Jan. 26, 2022, Paul Craig Roberts of the Institute for Political Economy said, “It is the U.S. that is being invaded (by illegal immigrants), not Ukraine.” Globalists want a more powerful world government and EU, and a less powerful Russia, China, and U.S. (FYI: Russia and China want to dominate the NWO, so they are trying to expand their power now, but they will not succeed. The Antichrist will destroy wonderfully (with satanic power and amazing high-tech weapons; Dan. 8:24), and he will prevail.) (Update: On Feb. 22, 2022, Russian troops entered 2 regions of Ukraine. I cannot predict the future, but some excellent Bible prophecy teachers believe Biden’s pathetic response will incentivize Putin to go after Israel soon. Time will tell.) Six, concerning the coming world government: citizens have now received a small glimpse of what it will be like all over the world by looking at what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (a student at the World Economic Forum’s school for future globalist leaders) is doing in Canada. Trudeau invoked the Emergency Act not to protect the people’s rights, but to crush a peaceful people’s protest because he has constantly restricted their rights (restricted Church services, ordered people to be vaccinated against their will, caused people to lose their jobs because they didn’t get vaccinated, denied people the right to leave the country without being vaccinated, refused to let people be with dying loved ones, etc.). Trudeau is a dictator that refused to even listen to the grievances of these non-violent citizens, and he targeted them simply because they disagreed with him. About 200 have been arrested, some have been tear-gassed, pepper-sprayed, shoved to the ground, kicked, hit with the butt of a rifle, lied about, called names, their bank accounts have been frozen, their vehicles have been seized, windows have been knocked out of their vehicles, families have been separated, a handicapped woman on a walker was reportedly trampled by horses, police reportedly fired rubber bullets at protestors, etc. The government seized more than 75 bank accounts, and the bank accounts of some people who are not even in Ottawa were frozen simply because they donated money to the protestors. The protestors are patriots that parked vehicles in the capital, but they have not destroyed police vehicles, burned buildings, or thrown objects at the police, as others have done without being arrested, punished, etc. They have peacefully protested the tyrannical actions of their government by praying, singing, listening to speeches, waving flags, etc. Pres. Biden and others urged Trudeau to crack down on these people, and if he gets away with it, it is this writer’s opinion that they will do it in the U.S. and other nations. Unelected globalist elites want to control every aspect of our lives (what we can say and can’t say, whether we can have a job or can’t have a job, what kind of medical treatment we can have and can’t have, where we can go and can’t go, etc.), and they are trying to deny people the right to express an opinion about what they say we can do and can’t do. The Constitution of the U.S. and other national guidelines (freedom of religion, freedom of speech, etc.) mean nothing to them because they have pushed through global laws and bought global agreements that they say prevail over the laws of nations. That’s right; they say many of America’s laws are no longer valid because America has agreed to abide by the “Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” goals. The World Economic Forum (WEF) told us we will own nothing and be happy, and Trudeau has already started seizing people’s bank accounts and property (but he can’t seize the treasure that people have laid up in heaven). (Update: On Feb. 22, 2022, it was reported that Ottawa’s mayor wants to start selling the vehicles the police have seized from the truckers.) On Feb. 21, 2022, the Canadian House of Commons voted to continue Trudeau’s Emergency Powers; so, it looks like Canada has fallen, and the nation will not get its freedom back until the Tribulation Period is over. Pelosi is already mobilizing the DC police and preparing to attack the U.S. truckers’ “Freedom Convoy” that is on its way to Washington. On Feb. 18, Biden extended the National Emergency Declaration in the U.S. This writer cannot predict what will happen, but stopping the globalist move toward world government has never been the Christian’s hope (our hope is the Rapture). Welcome to the beginning of the New World Order, the fundamental transformation of America and the world, the approaching day, the UN’s new universal agenda, the world’s new era, the day of governmental terrorism, the loss of freedom of speech and the right to say you disagree with government, the death of freedom, and the beginning of persecution in Canada, the U.S., and every nation on earth. Finally, are you Rapture Ready? If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this. duck_daymond@yahoo.com
