                  SIGNS LEADING UP TO THE COMING OF CHRIST

                 ‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑

                

By Ronald Tyler                                                   07/19/94

             Fifty four years ago, a Theologian, Dr. Donald Barnhowser a

       Presbyterian, listed some trends that he felt Scriptures indicated

       the signs of the last times before the return of Christ.  Here are

       just some of his findings........

      

      

       1) The regathering of Israel in her land.  Amos 9:15:

      

       I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted

       from the land I have given them, says the Lord your God.

      

       Matthew 24:34: I tell you the truth, this GENERATION WILL CERTAINLY

       WILL NOT PASS AWAY until all these things have happened.

      

       In 1948, Israel became a nation, and in the 1967 war, Israel got

       Jerusalem back as their capital.  It must be remembered that        Jerusalem

       was destroyed in 70 AD.  Jews are still to this day are returning to

       their land from all over the world. Jesus said the parable of the fig

       tree (Matthew 24:32) would indicate that he was at the door ready to

       return.  Then he said: This generation will not pass away until all

       these things have happened. We are that generation! When Christ says:

       "these things", he is referring to also when the signs of the great

       tribulation comes. All these things that Jesus refers to is in

       Matthew 24:1‑35, (in verse 16, Judea is Israel). Jesus says Judea

       flees to the mountains, so here is another sign that Israel would

       become a nation, which happened in 1948!

      

      

      

       2) The establishing of the United Europe, (the E.U.) Daniel 7:7‑24:

      

          After that, in my vision at night I looked, and their before me

          was a fourth Beast terrifying and frightening and very powerful.

          It had large iron teeth, it crushed and devoured its victims and

          trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all

          the former Beast, and had TEN HORNS. While I was thinking about

          the horns, there before me was ANOTHER HORN, a LITTLE ONE, which

          came up among them, and THREE OF THE FIRST HORNS WAS UPROOTED

          before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth

          that spoke boastfully. As I looked, thrones were set in place, and

          the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as

          snow, and hair of his head was white as wool. His throne was

          flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire

          was flowing, coming out before him. Thousands upon thousands

          attended him, ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him.

          The court was seated, and the books were opened. Then I continued

          to watch because of the boastful words the horn was speaking. I

          kept looking until the Beast was slain and its body destroyed

          and thrown into the blazing fire. (The other Beasts had been

          striped of their authority, but were allowed to live for a period

          of time.) In my vision at nite I looked, and there before me was

          one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He

          approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He

          was given authority, glory and sovereign power, all peoples,

          nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is

          an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom

          is one that will never be destroyed.

         

                     The interpretation of the Dream

                    ‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑

                   

                   

          I Daniel, was troubled in spirit, and the vision that passed

          through my mind disturbed me. I approached one of those standing

          there and asked him the true meaning of all this. So he told me

          and gave me the interpretation of these things.  The four great

          Beast are four kingdoms that will rise from the Earth. But the

          Saints of the most High will receive the kingdom and will possess

          it forever‑yes, for ever and ever. Then I wanted to know the true

          meaning of the fourth Beast, which was different from all the

          others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws‑

          the Beast that crushed and devoured its victims and trampled under

          foot whatever was left. I also wanted to know about the ten horns

          on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which

          three of them fell‑the horn that looked more imposing than the

          others and had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully. As I

          watched, this horn was waging war against the Saints and defeating

          them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in

          favor of the Saints of the Most High, and the time came when they

          possessed the Kingdom. He gave me this explanation: The fourth

          Beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on Earth. It will be

          different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole

          Earth, trampling it down and crushing it. The ten horns are ten

          kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king

          will arise, different from the earlier ones, he will subdue three

          kings. He will speak against the Most High and oppress his saints

          and try to change the set times and the laws. The Saints will be

          handed over to him for a time, times and half a time.

                                                                 

                                                                  

          In the book: THE NEW EUROPE: MAASTRICHT AND BEYOND, published in

          1993, it talks about more or less, what we have just read in

          Daniel. The countries of the European Community decided to build

          their future together after centuries of costly warfare.

          Their are currently 12 members.  Remember in Daniel it says that

          10 HORNS came about than a little one came up and sprouted 3 horns,

          which makes 13 HORNS.  Right now we have 12 horns (COUNTRIES OR

          KINGDOMS). It must be remembered that Daniel was talking about

          the old Roman Empire, which today is the European Communities.

          The 12 member States are: BELGIUM, DENMARK, THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC

          OF GERMANY, FRANCE, GREECE, IRELAND, ITALY, LUXEMBOURG, THE

          NETHERLANDS, PORTUGAL, SPAIN, AND THE UNITED KINGDOM, plus in

          January 1 1995, number 13 will join, this country is AUSTRIA.

          So here we have all 13 HORNS (COUNTRIES or KINGDOMS). Now 3 of them

          according to the Bible, must fall to where we have 10 HORNS.  It

          all began in 1957 when Rome signed a treaty establishing the

          European Economic Community, where 6 countries signed with them,

          they are: FRANCE, FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF GERMANY, ITALY, BELGIUM, THE

          NETHERLANDS, AND LUXEMBOURG. In 1972, THE UNITED KINGDOM, IRELAND

          and DENMARK signed and in 1981, GREECE signed. In 1986 SPAIN and

          PORTUGAL joined. So here we have 12, and in January 1 1995,

          Austria will join making 13 HORNS (COUNTRIES or KINGDOMS).  BUT

          Ireland and Denmark were never part of the old Roman Empire.

          What  about them? The answer is simple, Daniel 7:8 states: I

          considered the HORNS (at the end time), and behold, three came up

          among them (the ten) another little HORN (number 11!) before whom

          there were three of the first HORNS PLUCKED UP BY THE ROOTS. Yes,

          once a TEN_NATION Western confederacy has been formed, number 11

          comes to power, plucks up THREE of the first TEN and replaces

          them with HIS OWN and TWO OTHERS. This leader will be the world

          dictator and infamous ANTICHRIST!  It would seem that the Bible

          is on target once again fulfilling another prophecy!

                                                                                                 

          Do you think AMERICA'S present and future are predicted in

          the Bible? What are these prophecies and where are they

          located? (NOTE; This is not from Doctor Barnhowser)

          What we are about to read here is from the book: "11:59 and

          Counting" by Jack Van Impe.

          We are going to look at the following books in the Bible:

          Isaiah, Jeremiah and John. We will start with Isaiah.

          Isaiah mentions a latter‑day nation that resembles modern

          America.

          What does Isaiah state?

          He says: Woe to the land shadowing with WINGS, which is

          beyond the rivers of Ethiopia: that sendeth ambassadors by

          saying, Go ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and

          peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a

          nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have

          spoiled! (ISAIAH 18:1‑2). From this Doctor Van Impe says the

          following:

          1) America's emblem, a bald eagle with outstretched wings,

             fulfills the Prophet's description of a land shadowed with

             wings.

          2) The nation is beyond the sea from Israel.

          3) This nation is scattered and peeled, meaning spread out

             and cultured.

          4) It is measured or staked out as well.

          5) This nation also has spoiled or polluted waterways that

             affect the land.

          What does Jeremiah state?

          In chapters 50 and 51 of his book, Jeremiah presents

          conclusive evidence that a "latter‑day" Babylon shall spring

          into existence far different from, and superior to, ancient

          Babylon. Modern America seems to be the fulfillment of these

          predictions because:

          1) It is a nation of mingled people (Jeremiah 50:37).

             America and Russia both have intermingled and interracial

             inhabitants, but Russia is not in mind as we will prove.

          2) This is a nation whose "mother shall be sore confounded"

             (Jeremiah 50:12), coexisting with "mother" at the hour of

             its decline. Ancient Babylon does not fit the bill since

             it was founded by a father‑Nimrod. However, America's

             mother is England who presently is confounded, confused,

             and near collapse, financially. This nation no longer is

             considered a superpower and soon mother and daughter shall

             both be challenged.

          3) According to the prophet, this country "dwellest upon many

             waters" (Jeremiah 51:13). This typifies America, bordered

             on each side by the worlds's two largest oceans (Atlantic

             and Pacific) and possessing the longest river system on

             the globe‑the mighty Mississippi/Missouri. Surely ancient

             Babylon, composed of barren deserts, was not in view when

             Jeremiah wrote such prophecies.

          4) This nation's wealth plagues the nations of earth to the

             point of insane jealousy, for Jeremiah 51:7 declares:

             "Babylon hath been a golden cup in the Lord's

             hand...therefore the nations are mad.

          5) This country's space exploits are so utterly fantastic

             that it tries to "mount up to heaven" (Jeremiah 51:53).

             America's Echo 1, Echo 2, the Telstar satellites' voyages

             to the moon, and unmanned space flights to Mars are

             significant in the light of Jeremiah's declarations.

          6) Babylon will exist when Israel is back in its land.

             America is only 200 years old, and the new born babe‑

             Israel‑is a child. the new land of Israel was established

             in 1948, meaning that the prophecies could only coexist

             since that hour. Who but America can fulfill the

             requirements mentioned to this point and coexist with

             Israel?

          What does John say in the book of Revelation?

          He pictures two Babylons. One is portrayed as a WORLD

          RELIGION, geographically located on seven hills‑undoubtedly

          the seven hills of Rome (Revelation 17:9). The other Babylon

          is an internationally respected nation (Revelation 18).

          John describes the nation in the following terms:

          1) "The merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the

             abundance of her delicacies" (Revelation 18:5).

          2) It is laden with sins (Revelation 18:5).

         

          3) "She hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously"

             (Revelation 18:7). Sadly, this nation's superabundance of

             material goods produced idleness and sin.

          Are there any specific judgments administered against Babylon

          already identified as America?

          Dr. Van Impe says most assuredly so! A sneak attack, similar

          to Pearl Harbor, is PREDICTED upon Babylon in Jeremiah 50:24.

          God says: "I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also

          taken, O Babylon, and thou was not aware." John, in

          Revelation 18, describes the effects of this surprise attack.

          The bankers, merchants, and workmen all wail, saying: "Alas,

          alas that great city, Babylon, that mighty city! For in one

          hour is thy judgment come" (Revelation 18:10).

          All these signs, then, are directly related to Christ's

          return.

          No doubt about it. In fact, it all occurs AFTER the rapture

          and just before Christ returns to earth. Christ said in

          Matthew 24:29: "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." the sneak attack,

          then, is definitely a final tribulation occurrence.

          I also heard this sign from Jack Van Impe's television show

          on TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network).

          The coming of false peace.  1 Thessalonians 5:2‑3:

          For you know very well that the day of the Lord will come

          like a thief in the night. While people are saying "PEACE and

          SAFETY", destruction will come on them suddenly as labor

          pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

          Paul here is explaining that how God's END‑TIME JUDGMENT

          will come on the world. Look at the middle east, Palestine

          and Jordan declared peace with Israel, even though they still

          have some problems to work out, and now Syria is talking

          peace with Israel too! Is this the FALSE PEACE Paul was

          talking about?

          Now back to Dr. Barnhowser, now this has not took place yet,

          but even Jack Van Impe says this could take place very soon.

          3) The uniting of Russia and Germany EZEKIEL 38:1‑6:

          The word of the Lord came to me: Son of Man, set your face

          against Gog (The ANTICHRIST), of the land of Magog (RUSSIA),

          the chief prince of Meshech and Tubel; prophesy against him

          and say: This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against

          you O Gog (THE ANTICHRIST), chief prince of Meshech (Moscow) and

          Tubel (Tobolsk). I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and

          bring you out with your whole army‑your horses, your horsemen

          fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields,

          all of them brandishing their swords. Persia (IRAN), Cush

          (ETHIOPIA) and Put (LIBYA,ARABIC AFRICAN NATIONS) will be

          with them, all with shields and helmets, also GOMER (GERMANY)

          WITH ALL ITS TROOPS, and Beth Togarmah (ARMENIA) from the far

          north with all its troops‑the many nations with you.

          Magog is RUSSIA and Gomer is GERMANY. We will see if this

          comes to pass as time goes on.

          4) The increase of lawlessness. 2 TIMOTHY 3:13:

          While evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse,

          deceiving and being deceived.

          This is certainly happening today! We have so many false

          Teachers now to the point where we have certain churches

          minor and major denominations that are being deceived. Don't

          expect false teachers and evil people to reform and change on

          their own. Left alone, they will go from bad to worse!

          5) The interest in the Spirit world. (spiritism) 1 Timothy

          4:1:

          The Spirit clearly says that in LATER TIMES some will abandon

          the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by

          demons.

          Today we have on our televisions these psychics who fit this

          description. Paul said the false teachers were hypocritical

          liars who encouraged people to follow deceiving spirits and

          things taught by demons. Satan deceives people by offering a

          clever imitation of the real thing. The false teachers gave

          stringent rules. This made them appear self‑disciplined and

          righteous. Their strict disciplines for the body, however,

          could not remove sin. We must not be unduly impressed by a

          teacher's style or credentials; we must look to his teaching

          about Jesus Christ.

          6) The thrift towards Secularism and Apostasy in the

          churches. 2 Thessalonians 2:3:

          Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will

          not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of

          lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.

          Throughout history there have been individuals (false

          Teachers) who epitomized evil and who were hostile to

          everything Christ stands for. These Antichrists have lived

          in every generation (INCLUDING OURS) and will continue to

          work their evil. Today it's worse than it has ever been, even

          throughout history! These individuals are in some of the

          churches throughout the world today.

          7) An increase in natural catastrophes. Matthew 24:7:

          Nations will rise against kingdoms. There will be FAMINES and

          EARTHQUAKES in various places. Luke 21:26: Men will faint

          from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for

          the heavenly bodies will be shaken.

          We have more earthquakes and other natural catastrophes in

          this generation than in any other generations in the past.

          Plus in places where earthquakes are unheard of! We had all

          kinds of flooding in the last few years, we have monsoons in

          the India ocean and southern Asia, we have hurricanes in the

          Atlantic and Pacific oceans that are making landfall causing

          severe damage. Thousands of people have been killed do to

          these natural catastrophes.

          This concludes just some of Doctor Barnhowser's thoughts on

          the signs of the return of Christ. Keep in mind that these

          thoughts of his was 54 years ago! Do you think that some of

          these signs are accurate today?

          Here is a Scripture to think about: Psalm 9:17:

          The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations

          that forget God.

                              OTHER SIGNS

                             ‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑

          Revelation 6:8: I looked, and there before me was a pale

          horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following

          close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the

          earth to kill by sword, famine, and PLAGUE, and by the wild

          beasts of the earth.

          You have to wonder if the word PLAGUE could refer to AIDS or

          other major diseases that has popped up in the last 10 to 15

          years. AIDS has killed hundreds of thousands of people

          already. Is this one of the PLAGUES that will help wipe out

          the FOURTH PART OF THE EARTH, along with the famines that the

          Bible speaks of in the future? Is the stage set?

       

          Zechariah 14:12: This is the PLAGUE with which the Lord will

          strike all the nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their

          flesh will rot while they are standing on their feet, their

          eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in

          their mouths.

          We now have this FLESH EATING BACTERIA that is eating away

          slowly at the human body that just developed in the past few

          months. It is worth noting that we have NUCLEAR WEAPONS that

          can do the same thing in an instant!

              

          Revelation 16:8: The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the

          sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire.

          Could this be talking about the OZONE LAYER that is currently

          depleting? Look at all of the cases that the sun has caused

          skin cancer.

          Revelation 13:15‑18: He (THE ANTICHRIST) was given power to

          give breath to the IMAGE OF THE BEAST, so that it could speak

          and cause all who refuse to worship the image to be killed.

          He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free

          and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his

          forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the

          mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his

          name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him

          calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number.

          His number is 666.

          As far as Revelation 13:15‑18 goes, I would like to share

          with you something from USA TODAY: They are now creating or

          if not already going to shoot 840 satellites into space, the

          satellites are 23,000 miles in orbit, and when they look down

          on the earth they can pinpoint one person anywhere on the

          earth. Their is also a MEGA COMPUTER in the making in

          BELGIUM in LUXEMBOURG. Bank managers have been told about a

          totally cashless society as a result of this computer. The

          name of this computer is BELGIUM ELECTRONICS ACCOUNTING

          SURVEILLANCE TERMINAL, (B.E.A.S.T.). Now is this interesting

          or what! "Beast" is in the above scripture that we have just

          read! Could this be the IMAGE OF THE BEAST that Revelation

          13:15‑18, is talking about, this mega computer? Plus could

          this BEAST or computer keep track of every person on the

          earth with the help of these satellites? It is also worth

          noting that the United States is at any time now to release

          I.D. cards to all citizens, they are all computer I.D.

          cards!

          Luke 2:1: And it came to pass in THOSE DAYS, that there went

          out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that ALL THE WORLD SHOULD

          BE TAXED.

          In USA TODAY, they quoted Paul Harvey as saying that at the

          UNITED NATIONS as early as THIS OCTOBER of 1994, they could

          be voting on a WORLD WIDE TAX.

          In Luke 2:1, at this time in history the ROMAN EMPIRE, Luke

          mentions this TAX, now we have the revived or revised ROMAN

          EMPIRE (EUROPEAN COMMUNITY), which started in 1957 as the

          Treaty of Rome was signed.

          Matthew 24:3: Many shall come in my name saying I AM THE

          CHRIST, and shall deceive many.

          Since the year 1900, over 1,100 people claiming to be CHRIST

          have appeared on the scene. Just recently, David Koresh, in

          the Waco Texas incident, claimed he was the CHRIST!

          Revelation 13:11‑15: Then I saw another beast, coming out of

          the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, but he spoke like a

          dragon. He exercised all the authority of the first beast ON

          HIS BEHALF, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship

          the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.

          And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing

          fire to come down from heaven to earth in full view of men.

          This is a FALSE PROPHET, another MAN who will be the

          RELIGIOUS LEADER of the Antichrist. In Revelation 13:11‑15,

          describes the activities of the FALSE PROPHET who will

          perform miracles in support of the world ruler (THE

          ANTICHRIST), who is the beast out of the sea who will rule

          the 10 KINGDOMS which represents the 10 HORNS in Daniel 7:7‑

          24. Remember that there was 13 horns, then 3 will fall which

          will make 10, Daniel 7:20.

          the reason I quoted Revelation 13:11‑15, is because I heard a

          report that Prince Charles has put in a request to become

          KING OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY! In Revelation 13:1‑11, it

          speaks of a FALSE PROPHET a religious leader! He says that I

          do not want to be head of the Protestant Church of England. I

          want to be head of all these people (THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY),

          and I want to be the religious leader of ZOROASTRIANS!  Now

          from what I have learned about this is that in OLD BABYLON,

          they had an old religion and it became known as

          ZOROASTRIANISM. This was the group Constantine defeated when

          he wiped out the armies of Magsentous in 312 A.D. In

          Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, ZOROASTRIANISM

          means a Persian religion founded in the 6th century B.C. by

          the Prophet Zoroaster, promulgated in the Avesta, and

          characterized by worship of a supreme god Ahura Mazda who

          requires men's good deeds for help in his cosmic struggle

          against the evil spirit Ahriman. The last world religion

          found in Revelation 13:11, that produces this FALSE PROPHET,

          has on the forehead a name written: MYSTERY BABYLON THE

          GREAT, THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF

          THE EARTH. Who is mystery Babylon, ZOROASTRIANISM!  Could

          this be true???  Is it possible that this prophecy is about

          to be taking place right now according to what we have just

          read?

          In Leviticus chapter 23, it speaks of the 7 Feast of Israel.

          1) Passover, which refers to Salvation.

          2) Unleavened Bread, which refers to the Body of Christ, the

             bread of Life, the crucifixion.

          3) First fruits, which refers to the Resurrection of Christ.

          4) Pentecost, which refers to the Holy Spirit.

          5) Trumpets, which refers to the Rapture of the Church, which

             all believers in Christ is part of the Church which will

             be caught up in the Rapture.

          6) Atonement, which is the Tribulation which the book of

             Revelation talks about.

          7) Tabernacles, which refers to the Lord's shelter in the world

             to come, a rest period.

          We may also see God's clever design shown in the earthly

          week, the six Feast of work, and the last one (the seventh

          Feast) one of rest.

          The biblical history has indeed described some six thousand

          years, and if we are to foresee the Kingdom, somewhere in the

          NEAR FUTURE, then a logical one thousand year REST PERIOD IS

          COMING UP!  In 6 days God created the world and on the 7th he

          rested. In Genesis 2:2‑3, it states that by the seventh day

          God had finished the work he had been doing, so on the

          seventh day he rested from all he work. And God blessed the

          seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from

          all the work of creating that he had done.

          According to the Bible the times of the beginning of the book

          of Genesis to the present day, it has been six thousand

          years. Now the other thousand years coming up is the

          millennial reign of Christ according to Revelation chapter 20.

          Satan will be locked up for one thousand years to keep him

          from deceiving in the Nations until the thousand years were

          ended.

          Now from the New York Times, it says that one particle from

          the Comet that hit Jupiter on 07/16‑21/94, would wipe out the

          whole Earth. There is a unconfirmed report that a Comet would

          hit the Earth sometime after the year 3000. I believe in the

          Plain Dealer on Thursday 08/04/94, the government has

          approved of a bill that would allow astronomers to search outer

          space to find any Comets or Meteors that is one kilometer or

          more in size and at least ten years away. Now if you recall

          that at the end of the one thousand year reign of Christ, the

          earth would be destroyed and a new Earth would be made.

          Revelation 21:1: Then I saw a NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH, for

          the FIRST HEAVEN AND THE FIRST EARTH HAD PASSED AWAY, and

          there was no longer any sea. Is it possible that a Comet or

          a huge meteor could destroy the Earth after the millennial

          reign of Christ to make way for the new Heaven and new Earth?

          And is it possible that the six day and seventh day rest

          theory is accurate?

          Psalm 90:4: For a thousand years in your sight are like a day

          that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.

          2 Peter 3:8: But do not forget this one thing, dear friends:

          With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand

          years are like a day.

          Is it also possible that everything that we have just read is

          falling into place in our time to fulfill the prophecy of

          the Bible? Let's face it, so far every prophecy in the Bible

          that has been predicted has been fulfilled, or being fulfilled,

          I challenge anyone to read the prophecies of the Bible and look

          back in history to confirm it. Not one prophecy has failed!

          Whose to say that the predictions of the Bible can't happen

          in our time? Just some of the predictions that we have just

          read has come to pass!  So if all these prophecies has come to

          pass, then the Bible must be Gods true word, think about that!                        

          Then we have the argument that "well man wrote the Bible",

          that is true, but through GOD!

          2 Peter 1:21: For the prophecy came not in old time by the

          will of man: but HOLY MEN OF GOD spake as they were MOVED BY

          THE HOLY GHOST.

          2 Timothy 3:16: All scripture is given by INSPIRATION OF GOD,

          and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction,

          for instruction in righteousness.

          Oh, by the way, scientist says the Earth is so many millions

          of years old, but they can not prove it because they just

          recently discovered that CARBON DATING, is not accurate!

          But the BIBLE has hit every prophecy that was predicted, and

          it came to pass! See for yourself and prove to yourself that

          the Bible is accurate in every detail!

          How can we avoid these tribulations that are coming?

          What must we do to be saved? By simply turning your life over

          to Christ!  You see, God is very patient with us, but he

          will fulfill his plan very soon! Six thousand years has

          already gone by, now if that is not patience, I don't know

          what is!  According to what we have read, whose to say that

          we are not living in the last days!  I think our time is very

          short here on earth. But you must understand that if we turn

          our life over to Christ, we can be SAVED.  It is true that

          the Bible says that the wages of sin is death, this is the

          punishment that affects us all because of sin. But what is

          after death? Well, after death, we will have eternal life! If

          you've turned your life over to Christ that is. Heaven and Hell

          are real places, so what's the problem with many people

          today? They either don't believe in Christ, or Heaven or

          Hell, and if that's the case, where did you come from?

          Don't believe in evolution, because the scientist can't prove

          it to this day!

          I read this from The Dake annotated reference Bible about

          evolution: Any denial of God or His plan for man in Scripture

          makes Him a liar, and will damn the soul. If some through

          ignorance of the Bible think that they can believe in

          evolution and the Bible at the same time, they are highly

          deceived by Satan, the deceiver of the world. One can not know

          the statements of both the Bible and evolutionist and believe

          both. Nor can he be neutral. He must take a stand either for

          God and the Bible or for evolution guesses.  "What more can

          I say?"

          And again, the Bible has not missed one prophecy that is

          predicted in the word of God! Look back in history, it proves

          itself!  So without a doubt, all things were created by God.

          Colossians 1:16: For by him all things were created: things

          in Heaven and on Earth, visible and invisible, whether

          thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were

          created by him and for him.

          I've done my research through the following books: The Bible,

          the King James and the New International version, The Dake

          annotated reference Bible, The new Strong's exhaustive

          concordance of the Bible, Storm Warning by Billy Graham and

          The New Europe: Maastricht and beyond. I also watch on the

          Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) the following programs:

          "Jack Van Impe." which deals with Bible Prophecies, plus his

          book called 11:59 and Counting! Plus a show simply called

          "Bible Prophecy," and "The King is Coming". Out of these

          following shows on TBN, I got a good deal of information

          regarding what we have just read. I have a book that I

          think you would be very interested in, it is called PLANET

          EARTH‑2000 A.D. by Hal Lindsey, published this year in 1994.

          this book covers almost everything that we have covered.

          I strongly recommend it! You may find this book in a

          Christian book store in your area for around $13.00.

          Also on certain scriptures, I used some Life Application Notes

          from a computer Bible program that I possess.                                        

                   

          If you have questions about your own salvation, I invite you

          to experience for yourself the truth of the Bible's teaching

          about salvation. Confess your sins to God, trust Jesus

          Christ for forgiveness, and then in faith claim God's promise

          of forgiveness and eternal life. He will surely give you what

          he has promised! He will take and accept you in any state

          that you are in, believe and trust in him and follow him, he

          will not disappoint you! And remember that he can and will

          deliver you from anything that you are suffering from as long

          as you ask for deliverance. God gave his only son, Jesus

          Christ, to die on the cross for you and me to be delivered

          from eternal hell, and to be with him for eternity in heaven!

          I would like to give you some scriptures that Bill Graham

          arranged in this particular order from his book "Storm

          Warning":

          Romans 3:12: All have turned away, they have together become

          worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.

          2 Timothy 3:5: Having a form of godliness but denying its

          power. Have nothing to do with them.

          In 2 Timothy 3:5, The "form" or appearance of godliness

          includes going to church, knowing Christian doctrine, using

          Christian cliches, and following a community's Christian

          traditions. Such practices can make a person look good, but

          if the inner attitudes of belief, love, and worship are

          lacking, the outer appearance is meaningless. Paul warns us

          not to be deceived by people who only appear to be

          Christians. It may be difficult to distinguish them from true

          Christians at first, but their daily behavior will give them

          away.

          Romans 3:19: Now we know that whatever the law says, it says

          to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be

          silenced and the whole world held accountable to God.

          In Romans 3:19, The last time someone accused you of

          wrongdoing, what was your reaction? Denial, argument, and

          defensiveness? The Bible tells us the world stands silent and

          accountable before Almighty God. No excuses or arguments are

          left. Have you reached the point with God where you are ready

          to hang up your defenses and await his decision? If you

          haven't, stop now and admit your sin to him. If you have,

          then this is truly good news for you!

          Ephesians 2:8: For it is by grace you have been saved,

          through faith‑‑and this not from yourselves, it is the gift

          of God.

          In Ephesians, here its when someone gives you a gift, do you

          say, "That's very nice‑‑now how much do I owe you?" No, the

          appropriate response to a gift is "Thank you." Yet how often

          Christians, even after they have been given the gift of

          salvation, feel obligated to try to work their way to God.

          Because our salvation and even our faith are gifts, we should

          respond with gratitude, praise, and joy. We become Christians

          through God's unmerited grace, not as the result of any

          effort, ability, intelligent choice, or act of service on our

          part. However, out of gratitude for this free gift, we will

          seek to help and serve others with kindness, love, and

          gentleness, and not merely to please ourselves. While no

          action or work we do can help us obtain salvation, God's

          intention is that our salvation will result in acts of

          service. We are not saved merely for our own benefit, but to

          serve Christ and build up the church.

          Luke 19:10: For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what

          was lost.

          Romans 5:8: But God demonstrates his own love for us in this:

          While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

          In Romans 5:8, "While we were still sinners‑‑these are

          amazing words. God sent Jesus Christ to die for us, not

          because we were good enough, but because he loved us.

          Whenever you feel uncertain about God's love for you,

          remember that he loved you even before you turned to him. If

          God loved you when you were a rebel, he can surely strengthen

          you, now that you love him in return.

          Hebrews 7:25: Therefore he is able to save completely those

          who come to God through him, because he always lives to

          intercede for them.

          In HEBREWS 7:25, no one can add to what Jesus did to save us;

          our past, present, and future sins are all forgiven, and

          Jesus is with the Father as a sign that our sins are

          forgiven. If you are a Christian, remember that Christ has

          paid the price for your sins once and for all. As our high

          priest, Christ is our advocate, the mediator between us and

          God. He looks after our interest and intercedes for us with

          God. The Old Testament high priest went before God once a

          year to plead for the forgiveness of the nation's sins;

          Christ makes perpetual intercession before God for us.

          Christ's continuous presence in heaven with the Father

          assures that our sins have been paid for and forgiven. This

          wonderful assurance frees us from guilt and from fear of

          failure.

          Romans 10:13: For, "Everyone who calls on the name of the

          Lord will be saved."

          Romans 10:9: That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is

          Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the

          dead, you will be saved.

          Romans 10:10: For it is with your heart that you believe and

          are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and

          are saved.

          It is that simple to be saved! The above scriptures that you

          have just read make it plain and clear. I also want to make

          something else clear, being saved or "born again", does not

          mean that you will not have anymore troubles, Jesus never

          says this in the Bible, but what he basically says, that he

          will help you to overcome problems if you will come unto him.

          When this takes place in a Christian's life, it will make that

          Christian stronger in his or her walk with Christ. I can

          testify to this personally!

          Here are some scriptures that the Lord gave me to share:

          1 Corinthians 10:13: No temptation has sized you except what

          is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you

          be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when tempted, he

          will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under

          it.

          2 Timothy 2:22: Flee the EVIL DESIRES of youth, and pursue

          righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who

          CALL ON THE LORD out of a pure heart.

          Pray this prayer with me and trust and believe in your

          creator:

          Dear God, I confess that I am a sinner and that I need your

          forgiveness. I am truly sorry for my sins and humbly ask you

          to forgive me and cleanse me. I believe that you Jesus Christ

          died for my sins and rose from the dead for my salvation.

          In faith I accept from you the gift of eternal life, and

          with your help, I promise to serve you as long as I live.

          I pray this in Jesus' name. AMEN!

          The Bible says, "To all who received him (Jesus), to those

          who believed in his name, he gave the right to become

          children of God."  John 1:12.

          This is a promise to live by!   WELCOME TO THE FAMILY OF GOD!

          Now what you should do is study the Bible which is the word

          of God. And find a BIBLE BELIEVING CHURCH and attend!

          And believe me, you will grow in Christ and see what we are

          really doing here and also see what is to come! You feel such

          a joy in your heart as time goes on when you are in the word

          of God, and in a Church, that you just want more and more of

          what God has to offer! Again, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

          If you have any questions or comments to make, I will do my

          best to answer!

          Just leave me Email on P‑C OHIO, My name is Ronald Tyler.

          I pray what you have just read will get you to think about

          your life. I am not trying to scare anyone by what you have

          just read, but I am just trying to let everyone know where

          this world is heading, according to what the Bible says.

          Again I pray that you made the commitment to accept Christ in

          your life from the prayer above. The Lord will not disappoint

          you!  PLEASE DISTRIBUTE THIS REPORT ANYWHERE YOU CAN.

                       MAY THE LORD BE WITH YOU ALWAYS!
