Tribulation Insights

Luke 21:25 . .There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth,
nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.

I'd imagine that folks infatuated with climate change would find the roaring and
tossing of the sea a useful political advantage. But of course down the road when
that actually takes place, climate change will likely lose much of its allure as people
will no doubt be far more interested in survival than politics.

Luke 21:25 . . Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the
world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.

That will be a very dangerous time for elder citizens as anxiety attacks can be fatal
to folks in advanced age.

"Climate change" is in essence a pagan religion of nature worship, that human activities on earth have hurt and offended mother earth, all these natural disasters are her divine retribution. The climate activists have politicized these disasters to manipulate people's emotions and push their own agenda, you know their slogan, "never let a crisis go to waste."

Rev 13:16-17 . . And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the
poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand, or
on their forehead, and he provides that no one should be able to buy or to sell,
except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of
his name.

The world saw a sampling of the mark of the beast during the Covid 19 pandemic.
In some areas folks risked the loss of their jobs, their careers, and their licenses to
practice for refusing to accept a Covid vacc, and shoppers had to show proof of
inoculation before they could even enter a store to purchase basic necessities. So
we can be fairly certain the passage above is at the very least plausible.


NOTE: There are folks whose very lives depend upon prescription medications. For
example: I take a daily pill for under-active thyroid. Were I to refuse the mark of the
beast, no pharmacy on earth, not even in Mexico, would refill my prescription.

Rev 12:1 . . A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the Sun,
with the Moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.

That sign is sometimes interpreted to be Jesus' mom; and I guess that's okay if the
Bible reader happens to be Catholic. But it's also possible the sign is a bounce from
Joseph's dream (Gen 37:9) which Jacob interpreted as a reference to his clan,
a.k.a. the people of Israel.

"When he told it to his father and his brothers, his father reproved him and asked:
What is the meaning of this dream of yours? Can it be that I and your mother and
your brothers are to come and bow to the ground before you?" (Gen 37:10)

As the family's prophet, Jacob's inspired intuition instantly caught the dream's
message; although it did make him a bit indignant. However, the olde boy didn't
brush the dream aside because his prophetic insight told him there just might be
something to it

The mother component of the family of Israel consists of a composite unity of four
biological moms-- Rachel, Leah, Bilhah and Zilpah. So the logical conclusion is that
the Moon's identity included all four rather than limited to Joseph's mom alone who,
at the time of his dream, was already deceased.

Anyway: I'm guessing that what we're told by the sign is that in spite of the
Dragon's best efforts, he has thus far failed to stop Christ from taking the reins. In
other words: Christ is still on track to return and no one can stop him.

"She gave birth to a son, a male child, destined to rule all the nations with an iron
rod." (Rev 12:5a)

That would be a reference to the 2nd Psalm wherein Christ's opponents are soundly
mocked as air heads; so to speak.

Down at the end of all with which we are familiar, the announcement below will be
made.

"Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do
right, and the holy still be holy." (Rev 22:11)

In other words: the people to whom those words pertain, will be stuck with who
and what they are with no chance of ever being any different. That's good news for
the righteous and/or holy, whereas really bad news for folks who end up on the
wrong side of things as they will be forever unfit for anyplace else.
