Prophecy and knowledge - The known and knowable vs speculation and "what seems right"

It's important to understand the difference between what is stated, black and white, no question about it, fact in the Bible vs what is speculative and guesswork. Even if it logically makes sense but can't be proven absolutely, it is not knowledge, it is speculation!

Things we know for sure:

• The events around the antichrist and his rule in the End Time.

  • There are multiple places that this is discussed. Here are a couple pages you can start with:

  • The ways we will be able to identify the Antichrist in the last days.

  • Revelation 13 gives us a lot of information about what to expect.

• The signs Jesus gave us about the End Time.

  • The generation alive at the time these signs are all happening will not pass away before all is fulfilled.

• The time we're living right now is 6000 years from creation.

  • The geneologies in the Bible give us exact time frames.

  • Science data shows the age of the earth.

• The falling away prophesied in the Bible is already happening.

  • 2 Thess 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first...

• The way we have to read Revelation (not sequentialy chronological).

  • 6th Seal, 7th Trumpet, 7th Vial, Matt 24, Ez 38 are all speaking of the same event.

• The Tribulation spoken of by Jesus is the final 3.5 years.

  • Jesus said when we see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet, then shall be great tribulation.

  • Who will have great tribulation? The world or the saints of God?

  • A break-down of all the scriptures that show us this 3.5 year timeframe, proving this point absolutely.

• The timing of the rapture.

  • Jesus and the Apostle Paul give us exact timing of the gathering of the saints (the rapture).

• The Mystery of God is finished at 7th trumpet.

  • The identity of Jesus is revealed to the world at the sounding of the Seventh Trumpet.

• Daniel 2, The final world power that will exist at the return of Jesus will be the Holy Roman/Islamic Ottoman Empires revived.

  • The modern EU and Arab leagues are the Holy Roman/Islamic Ottoman Empires of modern day.

• Daniel 7, four "nations" or "kings" that will be on earth at last day.

  • They will become power base of Antichrist in Rev 13.

• The Jewish Temple will be rebuilt.

  • In Revelation 11 we see that it will exist at the time of the Antichrist.

  • The Jews are currently planning and assembling everything necessary to rebuild the temple and resume animal sacrifices.

  • An article proving that the End Time temple is a place, not the human body and the Antichrist is a man.

• The timing of the wrath of God.

  • Revelation 15 and 16 show us the events which are the wrath of God.

  • Revelation 16 show us that the Mark of the Beast has been implemented before the wrath of God.

  • And, Revelation along with Matthew and Ezekiel shows us that the wrath of God is only poured out at the very end of the age. It is not long and drawn out, and only happens once.

• The timing of the wrath of Satan.

  • Revelation 12 show us the timing of the wrath of Satan.

  • The Great Tribulation is actually the wrath of Satan, not the wrath of God as most people believe.

• There will be a 1000 year reign after Jesus returns, where He will rule with a rod of iron.

  • Revelation 12 show us the child born to Israel (Jesus) will rule all nations with a rod of iron.

  • Revelation 19 shows that Jesus will rule the nations with a rod of iron when He returns and destroys the armies of the Antichrist (the battle of Armageddon).

  • Revelation 20 shows that Jesus will rule for 1000 years on the earth.

• We are expected to be watching and understand...

  • Jesus gave us several warnings to be watching and be prepared!

Things we do not know for sure, but are very likely:

• Daniel 7, the identity of the four beasts.

  • Russia, Germany, Great Britain and Islam.

• First 4 seals in Revelation 6 is a parallel prophecy of Zechariah 6.

  • Catholicism, Capitalism, Communism and Islam.

• First 4 trumpets in Revelation.

  • WW1, WW2, Chernobyl and time changing.

• The identity of the Great Whore and her daughters.

  • She wears scarlet and purple, sits among many peoples, is the "City of Seven Hills", etc.

• Islam will be the religion of Antichrist.

  • Satan engineered a perfect mirror of Biblical prophecy in Islamic prophecy and it will fool them all so completely...

• The False prophet will be the leader of a revived "Holy Roman" empire.

  • The False Prophet will almost certainly be the leader of the Great Whore.

• Total of 7 millennial "days" for the plan of God to be complete before the transition into eternity with new heavens and earth.

  • The geneologies in the Bible give us exact time frames showing we are at 6000 years now. The 7th millennium is the final 1000 years where Jesus rules with a rod of iron.

  • Revelation 20 shows that Jesus will rule for the final 1000 years on the earth.

  • Science data shows the age of the earth now.

  • The final millennial "day" will be that last 1000 years where Jesus is physically on the earth.
