Hello, brothers and sisters in the Lord. This is Brother Rick. I hope you all are having a good day and still looking up, looking for the Lord to return, because He's gonna pick pop on the scene and there's gonna be so many people that aren't ready. But first there'll be what w what's called the rapture or the taking of the church. And the people left behind will be wondering what in the world, and that's when all the big trouble's gonna start, when Satan will be released completely, and all the people on earth will have big trouble. And there's been a bit of confusion that's been spread around that th in the end there'll be a a giant revival. Well, matter of fact, it's just the opposite. In Matthew 24, uh 10, uh well, Matthew 24 is a big chapter that the Lord tells about the end of time of what's going to be happening. Well, in uh verse 10 of chapter 24 in Matthew, uh the Lord says that uh there'll be big turning away from the faith. And there'll be those that will be traying each other. So any revivals that are happening now, folks better jump on board because there's going to be a great falling away, and then actually Christians are going to be persecuted pretty much the way the Jews were in Germany before World War II was uh broken out real bad. We'll be called rats and all kinds of ugliness and uh killed and thrown in jail and all kinds of stuff. Christian speech is already starting to get restricted in America, and America is the last stronghold. Europe has already faded away to nothing. There are pockets of Christianity everywhere, but that's just people that are following the Lord and they're holding on to their faith, and they're living by their faith. And that's what Christ says is going to happen. And in Matthew 24 and 11, it talks about there'll be many false prophets will show up and just leading people away. Say, oh, this is what he meant. This is what he meant. No, what he meant is what he said right here in the Bible. And people need to be reading it for themselves. Don't be believing what somebody's telling you. And like what we're having right now, it says uh in verse 12, it talks about uh wickedness will increase and the love of most will grow cold. Well, we're having that. Look at abortion and how people are looking at that. That's murdering children. The most innocent of innocents, not even born children. And it's like their nerve endings for feeling as they're getting cauterized and they don't care. I heard one uh actress bragging about she had like 25 or some kind of awful number of abortions, and she was bragging about it. She goes, It's easy to do, girls. Let's go. That lady needs to be careful she isn't held accountable for each of those lives she's snuffed out. And when all this stuff starts taking place, we have to proclaim Jesus and we have to hold on. If they ask us if we're a Christian, we say yes. Because Christ rightly says in verse 13, he says, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. We can't be saying, oh no, I'm not a Christian. God will understand. No, no, no, no, no. That's not the way it works. Because if we deny him, he'll deny us. And in verse 15, it talks about the abomination of desolation that causes desolation. That's when God says, enough, enough of this mess. But I personally believe that AI rising up like it is is going to have a lot to do with this. And in Revelation 13, verses 14 and 15, it talks about uh after the Antichrist is wounded, and he is healed miraculously, so-called miraculously healed from this head wound, that uh they uh set up an image uh to him. Something they build with their hands, and this image is given power to speak. And uh verse 15 it says that that it's uh given breath even. And the people of earth will be deceived big time because the Spirit of God will have been taken, and the Spirit of Satan is floating free. And in verse 15 it talks about again in Revelation 13 and 15, uh talks about that uh people that refuse to obey what the image tells them. Like if they don't worship the image, they'll be killed. And in 16, that's when the mark of the beast comes about, which probably is going to be some kind of a chip, I would bet. You would take into your forehead or your your hand, and you'll use it for scanning. We're pretty close to that now. We have uh cards that we scan to have money deducted from our accounts, and we're using eye scanners to show proof of identification and all this. So we're not very far from it at all, brothers and sisters. And everybody that's still left on the planet has to take this mark before they'll be able to uh trade in anything, food, groceries, pay bills of any kind. I really feel sorry for people that come the real it is come to the realization that they missed the boat, the original boat of the taking of the church going with the Lord. And it'll be hard to live and to make a living, and especially if you have a any kind of a family. There's going to be a seven-year peace treaty set up. The book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation tie hand in hand. And in the book of Daniel, uh, chapter 9, verse 27, it talks about that uh the Antichrist will set up a peace treaty or uh an agreement to have peace for seven years, but halfway through it, three and a half years into it, it'll be broken. And that's when the abomination of desolation will take over will will occur, is three and a half years in. Because Israel has never known peace since God claimed them as his uh special people. And the Israeli temple will have to have been rebuilt, and the abomination of desolation will uh set right in the temple itself and desecrate it. And the book of Daniel is chocked full of nuts with information on this. And uh in chapter 12 it uh talks about how many days it will be after uh the desolation occurs when the uh putridness of that piece of junk sets that up. That came out wrong. I'm not I apologize. Uh I'm not belittling uh uh entities and beings because uh Satan is mighty, and I I just pray the good Lord watches over all of us and we don't be belittling on Satan. We uh just leave him alone. We rebuke him in the name of Jesus Christ because we get in trouble for it. And back to Revelation in chapter 12. Uh there's a lot of rev uh symbology in Revelation, and you have to read it a few times and start to get some of it. There's a lot of it that'll stay hidden until Christ reveals it to us, but in chapter 12 it talks about uh Israel being described as a pregnant lady and having a child, which turns out to be Christ. And verse 5 of chapter 12 it talks about that. But the few verses in that chapter before that talks about the red dragon or the devil, and he is trying to devour the child. He wants to kill kill the Lord, which he used the Pharisees and the hatred, the jealousy of those guys over Christ to have Christ killed, and when he popped back out of that tomb three days later, he said, Oh man, I really messed that up. But again, back to verse 5, it talks about that's when Christ is picked up and taken up to heaven. And in verse 6, this is when the first uh three and a half years of the peace uh of the original agreement that the Antichrist sets up. Well, Israel is given peace for three and a half years. Well, then it talks about the rest of the people. But first, again in verse 13 of chapter 12, it talks about that the dragon was after the woman. After he'd been hurled to the earth, he was angry. And he's after Israel, is who that is. And he's trying to kill them. And if anybody knows anything about history, Israel has been the most persecuted people ever, ever. Murdered, killed, imprisoned for nothing. And then verse 14 it talks about she's taken away and she's protected for time, times and half a time, which is three and a half years the way it works out. If, like I say, you have to read back and forth between Daniel and Revelation. That's when big trouble is going to happen for people that trust God or trying to hold on. And it's going to be real terrible because Satan comes full throttle after the rest of people that follow God and try to keep his commands. Because the Holy Spirit will already be taken. And there will be people that will believe, they'll understand, there'll be Bibles that they'll find and they'll look through them and they'll find the truth. And they'll be saying, Oh man, I did. I missed the boat, I missed the train to the get out of here, I missed the way out. And the only way out is Christ. And they'll be realizing it, but Satan will be hardcore after them, killing all that he can find. This is called the Great Tribulation, and I don't want to be part of this, and I don't think anybody else does either. And they just don't realize it's coming. But we need to warn people that God is uh He's about to have enough of this stuff, and we've pushed it and pushed it and pushed it like spoiled children, and with homosexuality and abortion and witchcraft and all just coming on stronger and stronger. I truly believe the Lord is going to finally have enough real soon. And as Christians, we need to stand up against this. We stand firm on the word of the Lord, and He is the solid rock, and He is the only way. Christ is the only way out of here. Well, brothers and sisters, I'd like to talk more about this tribulation, and I probably will because I really like talking about it. There's a lot to it, a lot of symbology that can be broken down and explained and understood. How the Lord wants it understood. Well, this is Brother Rick, and I'm going to get off of here for now. But I pray the good Lord save your souls and get you ready for the first taking. When he returns to grab his church and bring us home and let the world have at itself for a while till people learn a lesson. But like I said, this is Brother Rick. I'm going to get off of here, and I pray he saves your soul, the good Lord save your soul, and his face shine down upon you. And until next time, I love you in the name of Jesus Christ.
