This Week in Prophecy: Seeds of Inflation; Iran Drought; Ethiopian Volcano; AI Gospel Music

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Culture, Earthquakes/Volcanoes, Persia/Elam/Iran, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on December 2, 2025 by paulthepoke

Revelation 6:6 And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine!”

The four horses of the Apocalypse will ride. Hyperinflation is a condition at the onset of the seven year tribulation.

When Revelation was written by John in 94-96 AD, a denarius was a day’s wage for a working laborer. A quart of wheat would feed an individual or three quarts of barley would feed a family. Roughly a quart of grain was required to make a loaf of bread.

Likewise, luxury items like oil and wine are unharmed at this time. It would appear there is a gap between the “haves” and “have nots”.

Fast forward almost 2,000 years… Today, we are living the K Shaped Economy. This is the result of post COVID monetary policy.

The upper arm of the K (going upward): Represents sectors, industries, companies, or socioeconomic groups that recover quickly, thrive, or even accelerate post-crisis (e.g., technology giants, high-income professionals, asset owners, big corporations).

The lower arm of the K (going downward): Represents sectors, industries, small businesses, or socioeconomic groups that continue to decline, stagnate, or suffer long-term damage (e.g., hospitality, retail, travel, low-wage workers, small businesses).

A K-Shaped Economy is one where the rich and powerful get richer, certain high-tech/high-skill sectors soar, and everyone else continues to struggle—creating a stark, two-tier recovery. -Grok

For those new to the blog, we are of the opinion the tribulation has yet to begin. For example, there has been no red heifer sacrifice so there cannot be a 3rd Temple built. There is no 3rd Temple for the antichrist to defile. There is not a 10 member nation or ruling committee for the antichrist to subdue 3 members and take control. There are not 2 witnesses pronouncing judgment from Jerusalem.

But the stage is being set. Are we watching the seeds of Biblical prophetic hyperinflation being sewn?

The US dollar has been increasingly devalued since the link to gold was destroyed in 1971 by President Nixon. Some argue this began in the early 20th century with the creation of the Federal Reserve.

  • The US dollar has lost over 96% of its value since 1913, when the Federal Reserve took over the dollar.
  • The Fed devalues the dollar by printing more dollars without creating any value.
  • Nixon ended the gold standard in 1971, skyrocketing inflation.

Happy Thanksgiving 2025

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Culture, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , on November 25, 2025 by paulthepoke

Exodus 23:16b …And keep the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather your produce from the field.

Thanksgiving is a theme embedded throughout the Bible and across time. The ultimate expression of Thanksgiving is Communion and what Christ did for us. Communion is a memorial of thanks. Even Jesus is giving thanks to God the Father as He is about to become the expression of sacrifice.

1 Corinthians 11:23-26 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus, on the night when He was betrayed, took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.

Prior to Communion was the sacrificial system of the Old Testament. Specifically, we are going to look at the Fall Feast of Tabernacles or the Feast of Ingathering.

This festival is a week-long festival from Tishri 15 to 21. When working in the fields during harvest, people lived in tents. The tents served as a reminder of the forty years of wandering in the desert after the Exodus from Egypt. The holiday is a reminder of the provision and safety God showed Israel during their travels in the desert as noted in Deuteronomy 8. It is to be a joyous festival (Deuteronomy 16:14). Sabbatical rest without work is part of the holiday. (New Manners and Customs of Bible Times).

Three times a year, the men were required to come to Jerusalem and come before the Lord with a sacrifice. They were to bring their best.

All that said, many scholars believe the Pilgrims of the Mayflower patterned their first Thanksgiving after the Feast of Tabernacles in the fall. Legend has it the Pilgrims celebrated their successful harvest in the fall and gave thanks to God.

~

Zechariah 14:16-19 And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain. If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no  rain; they shall receive the plague with which the Lord strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.

Per Zechariah 14, the Feast of Booths or Tabernacles is the only God appointed holiday gentile nations will be required to attend. The nations will be required to go before the Lord Jesus Christ during the Feast of Booths. For those nations who do not attend, no rain for your crops.

The Bible also promises an incredible feast and other gifts of Thanksgiving to all people at some point in the future.

Isaiah 25:6-8 On this mountain the LORD of Hosts will prepare a lavish banquet for all the peoples, a feast of aged wine, of choice meat, of finely aged wine. On this mountain He will swallow up the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations; He will swallow up death forever. The Lord GOD will wipe away the tears from every face and remove the disgrace of His people from the whole earth.

God has a plan and we have so much to be thankful for with incredible gratitude.

This Week in Prophecy: Auroras; Rod of Discipline; AI Jesus

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Creation, Culture, Signs: Sun, Moon, Stars... with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 15, 2025 by paulthepoke

Psalm 19:1-2 The heavens tell of the glory of God; and their expanse declares the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.

God is talking and He is telling us something…

A white church stands beneath a vibrant sky filled with swirling red and green auroras, evoking a sense of wonder and divine majesty.

Auroras occur when solar wind particles, guided by Earth’s magnetic field, collide with oxygen and nitrogen in the upper atmosphere near the poles, exciting the gases to emit colorful light. -Grok

God created constants in this universe and solar system. God is a master of order.

As humans created in the image of God, we have the ability to observe. We have the ability to see in color. We can calculate and understand these observable phenomenon. Humans have awareness and consciousness. God created us with the ability to understand His creation.

Proverbs 29:15 A rod of correction imparts wisdom, but a child left to himself disgraces his mother.

Matthew 24:24 For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.

Get into God’s Word… Read the Bible. We are going to need it. To quote Pilate, “What is truth?”

1 John 1:1-2 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life, the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us…

2 Peter 1:19 And we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts…

This Week in Prophecy: Nigerian Persecution; Poseidon; AP Bio; No Kings

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Culture, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 4, 2025 by paulthepoke

John 15:18-20 “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also. -Jesus

Followers of Jesus will be persecuted, said Jesus.

Here is the standard and expectation according to Scripture.

Mark 12:31 The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

Romans 12:14-21 Bless those who persecute you. Bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited. Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Carefully consider what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone. Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.” On the contrary, “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

This does not mean stand around and get slaughtered. We have the right to defend ourselves. As Christians, we should not be aggressive towards others and seeking violent conflict. Retaliation and vengeance belong to God. But we can protect and defend ourselves.

Luke 22:36 He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one.

Ezekiel 38:1-2 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him…

We know Magog and Rosh as modern day Russia. President Putin is talking radioactive tsunamis.

Sukkot/Tabernacles 5786/5950/2025: Peace Plan Phase 1

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Fall Feasts, Gaza Strip/Philistia, Peace Plan, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on October 8, 2025 by paulthepoke

Leviticus 23:33-36 Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘On the fifteenth of this seventh month is the Feast of Booths for seven days to the LORD. On the first day is a holy convocation; you shall do no laborious work of any kind. For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the LORD. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the LORD; it is an assembly. You shall do no laborious work.’”

This is the last of God’s appointed feasts or festivals. This holiday is known by many names. It is called the Feast of Tabernacles, Sukkot, the Feast of Booths, the Festival of Tents, or the Feast of the Harvest because it is after the harvest in the fall. Simply put, it is also called “the feast” or “the festival”.

Tishri is the seventh month on a Hebrew calendar. This festival is a week-long festival from Tishri 15 to 21.

On a traditional lunar Hebrew calendar, Sukkot began at sunset Monday, October 6, 2025 and runs through Monday, October 13, 2025.

For those keeping track on the solar Dead Sea Scroll/Essene calendar, the Feast began on Wednesday, October 1 and runs through October 8. Today, would be the Great Day or the 8th day.

Leviticus 23:36 For seven days you shall present food offerings to the LORD. On the eighth day you shall hold a holy convocation and present a food offering to the LORD. It is a solemn assembly; you shall not do any ordinary work.

Tabernacles is the last of three festivals where men are required to make a road trip to Jerusalem and go to the Temple.

Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. -Jesus

Tweet from Donald J. Trump announcing a peace plan agreement between Israel and Hamas, expressing pride and optimism for future peace.

Per Zechariah 14:16-19, the Feast of Booths is the only God appointed holiday gentile nations will be required to attend. The nations will be required to go before the Lord Jesus Christ during the Feast of Booths. For those nations who do not attend, no rain for your crops.

Zechariah 14:16-19 Then all the survivors from the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles. And should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, then the rain will not fall on them. And if the family of Egypt does not go up or enter, then no rain will fall on them; it will be the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths. This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths.

~

Leviticus 23:42-43 You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All native Israelites shall dwell in booths that your generations may know that I made the people of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.”

Believers in Jesus Christ, Pay Attention!!!

This Week in Prophecy: Yom Kippur 5786/5950/2025; Linen Garments; Brit Digital ID; Nigeria Persecution

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Fall Feasts with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on September 30, 2025 by paulthepoke

Leviticus 16:4 He shall put on the holy linen coat and shall have the linen undergarment on his body, and he shall tie the linen sash around his waist, and wear the linen turban; these are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water and then put them on.

Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement is the busiest day of the year for the high priest.

These are the instructions for the high priest before enters the Holy Place in the Temple.

Exodus 28 gives instructions for the priestly garments. The clothing for the priest is to be made of linen. 

Exodus 28:5 They shall take the gold and the blue and the purple and the scarlet material and the fine linen. 

The concept is stated seven more times in Exodus 28. Priestly garments are of linen (Exodus 28:6, 8, 15, 39, 39, 42).

~

Currently, there is a high priest in the Heavenly Tabernacle. He is of the order of Melchizedek. 

Hebrews 6:20 …where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

Before going to Heaven to be at the right hand of the Father, Christ the high priest was buried in linen. 

Matthew 27:59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth… (see also Mark 15:46, Luke 23:53).

The body referenced is Jesus after His death.

~

John 20:17 Jesus says to her, “Do not touch Me, for not yet have I ascended to the Father. Now go to My brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’”

After His death but before His ascension, Christ was clean and free of sin. He had become a sin offering at the cross. Jesus had overcome death or sin with His resurrection.

Christ is talking to Mary Magdalene. Because of her history, we know she was a sinful woman. Not to pick on Mary, as humans, we are all sinful. Jesus would have said the same thing to any of us if we were in Mary’s place.

Jesus’ resurrected body could not come in contact with sin before going to the Heavenly Tabernacle. Jesus entered Heaven free of sin in His glorified body. Christ presented Himself clean and pure before God the Father in the Heavenly Holy Place.

~

Revelation 13:16-17 And the second beast required all people, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark—the name of the beast or the number of its name.

This Week in Prophecy: Love Grows Cold; Palestine State

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Culture, Gaza Strip/Philistia, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , on September 24, 2025 by paulthepoke

Revelation 11:7-10 When the two witnesses have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will wage war with them, and will overpower and kill them. Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city—figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where their Lord was also crucified. For three and a half days all peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will view their bodies and will not permit them to be laid in a tomb. And those who dwell on the earth will gloat over them and celebrate and send one another gifts, because these two prophets had tormented them.

I have often wondered how humanity reached the point of celebration with the death of a fellow man in the verses above in Revelation 11. With the assassination of Charlie Kirk, we have seen plenty of examples of people celebrating on social media. As of September 2025, we have arrived. People are gloating, celebrating, and gifting over the death of a man.

The verses above mark the halfway point of the 7 year tribulation. I hold to the position the seven year tribulation has not started. Sadly, Scripture says our world will grow colder from this point in time.

Jesus confirms this coming time with the Olivet Discourse.

Matthew 24:12 Because of the multiplication of wickedness, the love of most/many will grow cold.

Mark 3:23-26 So Jesus called them together and began to speak to them in parables: “How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, it cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, it cannot stand. And if Satan is divided and rises against himself, he cannot stand; his end has come.

God’s Fall Appointments, 5786/5950/2025

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Fall Feasts, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on September 17, 2025 by paulthepoke

God’s Fall Appointments are the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles. It’s that time of the year and the Feasts are approaching.

Below is a brief 10 minute video that provides a framework for God’s fall appointed holidays. The video is compliments of T.W. Tramm. Check out his writings and his work in the links below. Facebook continues to remove his articles regarding the rapture. T.W. is always thought provoking and backs his writing with Scriptural evidence. Tramm does his homework.

Numbers 29:1 ‘Now in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall also have a holy convocation; you shall do no laborious work. It will be to you a day for blowing trumpets.

See also Leviticus 23:23-25.

The beginning of the Jewish civil new year is upon us within the next week. This is the Hebrew month of Tishri. It will be the Hebrew year 5786 on a traditional and secular calendar. The date for Yom Teruah is calculated to be near sunset Monday, September 22nd. Some will confirm the new year with the sighting of the new moon. The new year begins when the new moon is confirmed by two witnesses. The traditional Hebrew calendar is a lunar calendar.

As the Essenes mark time, the month of Tishri begins on Wednesday, September 17. The Essenes celebrate their New Year in the spring with the beginning of Nisan or Abib per Exodus 12:2. This calendar is a solar calendar.

Check out Ken Johnson’s Essene calendar work at https://dsscalendar.org/

Yom Teruah ends two days later.

The first fall holiday has many names. It is called the Feast of Trumpets by Christians. It is recognized as the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. Some refer to it as the “Hidden Day” or the “Wedding of the Messiah”. In Judaism, it is called Yom Teruah which means the “Day of Blowing”.

The second fall holiday is the Day of Atonement. See Leviticus 16. Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement is celebrated on Tishri 10th. It is the last day of the 40 day period of Teshuvah or repent in the Hebrew. This holiday is viewed at the holiest day of Judaism. The day is a Sabbath day of rest. Yom Kippur is the only day a fast is required. The day begins at sun down. This is the busiest day of the year for the high priest with multiple animal sacrifices.

The beginning for the Day of Atonement in 2024 is calculated at sundown Wednesday, October 1st and ends the next day, Thursday evening, October 2nd. This date could be determined by the confirmation of the new moon 10 days earlier. The Essenes mark the date as Friday, September 26th through the next day.

Yom Kippur/Day of Atonement

Leviticus 23:33-36 Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘On the fifteenth of this seventh month is the Feast of Booths for seven days to the LORD. On the first day is a holy convocation; you shall do no laborious work of any kind. For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the LORD. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the LORD; it is an assembly. You shall do no laborious work.’”

The third and last fall holiday on God’s calendar is Tabernacles. It is also called Sukkot, the Feast of Booths, the Festival of Tents, or the Feast of the Harvest because it was after the harvest in the fall. Simply put, it was also called “the Feast” or “the Festival”. This festival is a week-long festival from Tishri 15 to 21 on a Hebrew calendar.

On our western Gregorian calendar, in 2025, the Feast of Tabernacles will be observed from about Monday, October 6th to Monday, October 13th. Or, pending the new moon confirmed at the beginning of the Hebrew month of Tishri.

This year, the Essenes mark the beginning of Tabernacles on Wednesday, October 1st (which happens to be the day the secular calendar calculates the onset of Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement) and runs through Tuesday, October 7th. The last and Great Day occurs on Wednesday, October 8th.

Isaiah 12: Jesus and the Water of Life

~

There are seven God appointed holidays communicated through the Mosaic Law. The first four in the Spring were fulfilled to the day by Jesus Himself with His death, burial, resurrection, and the giving of the Holy Spirit. If the first four Spring holidays were fulfilled by Jesus on the God appointed holidays, why would the Fall holidays be any different?

Mark 13:32-33 “But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come…”

It is easy to see why the verse above is true with all the calendar confusion. The post has covered 4 different time keeping systems for marking God’s Appointments. Ultimately, the question is how does God mark time?

Jesus is coming again…

Are you ready???

Remembering Charlie Kirk; Hamas Leaderless; Terrorism; Wars & Rumors; Persecution; UAP’s

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Fake News???, Gaza Strip/Philistia, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on September 10, 2025 by paulthepoke

2 Timothy 3:12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

Matthew 24:9 Then they will deliver you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

Conservative Charlie Kirk, 31, was fatally shot during a debate event at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on Wednesday, September 10, 2025. The founder of Turning Point USA, known for his conservative Judeo-Christian views on politics and culture, died from injuries after being struck in the neck by a shooter from an estimated 200 yards away. The incident has ignited widespread outrage, with President Donald Trump and lawmakers from both parties condemning the violence and calling for investigations into campus security and political tensions. -Grok edited

Please consider prayer for Charlie and his family.

Ezekiel 7:11 Violence has grown up into a rod of wickedness. None of them shall remain, nor their abundance, nor their wealth; neither shall there be preeminence among them.

Ezekiel 7:23 Forge a chain! For the land is full of bloody crimes and the city is full of violence.

Ezekiel 7:25 When anguish comes, they will seek peace, but there shall be none.

The Hebrew word “hamas“. Per lexicons and dictionaries in the Hebrew, “hamas” means violence. The word is translated as violence, wrong, or malicious in the Bible.

Everyone wants the Hostages HOME. Everyone wants this War to end! The Israelis have accepted my Terms. It is time for Hamas to accept as well. I have warned Hamas about the consequences of not accepting. This is my last warning, there will not be another one! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Qatar and the international community are condemning Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Israel grows increasingly more isolated in the world. And we wonder how we get to a place where no one will stand up for Israel when Ezekiel 38-39 come calling.

Ezekiel 38:13 Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you come to capture the plunder? Have you assembled your hordes to carry away loot, to make off with silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize great spoil?’

Mark 13:7 And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. This must take place, but the end is not yet. -Jesus

Israel is and has been fighting wars on multiple fronts: Hamas in Gaza, Houthis in Yemen, targeted strikes in the West Bank, Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, Iranian proxies in Syria, and Iran.

Don’t forget Russia and Ukraine, Myanmar Civil War, Sudanese Civil War, Ethiopian Civil War, Nigerian Terrorist Insurgency, Burkina Faso Terrorist Insurgency, Syrian Civil War, Mali Terrorist Insurgency, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) Conflict, Afghanistan-Pakistan Border Conflict, Cameroon Anglophone Crisis, Niger Terrorist Insurgency, Colombian Conflict, Haitian Civil War, Afghanistan Civil War, Iraq Civil War, Central African Republic Civil War, Mozambique Civil War, Chad Terrorist Insurgency, Libya Terrorist Insurgency, Ecuador Civil War, and Nepal. -Grok

Back in July 2025, French President Macron called for recognition of a Palestinian state.

Protests across France are scheduled for Wednesday, September 10, 2025. Macron’s government has collapsed.

Coincidence or Divine intervention???

The Bible has answers. ALL things were created by and for Him (Jesus). And because of His work on the cross and His resurrection, ALL things in the universe are under His subjection.

Colossians 1:16 For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through Him and for Him.

Colossians 1:20 and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through the blood of His cross.

Matthew 22:37-40 And He said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.” -Jesus

This Week in Prophecy: Trump & Heaven; Greater Israel; 3rd Temple; Peace & Security; Quakes

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Earthquakes/Volcanoes, Gospel, Prophecy, Temple, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 24, 2025 by paulthepoke

Galatians 2:16 yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

“I just want to end it. If I can save seven thousand people a week from getting killed, that’s pretty good. I want to get to heaven if possible. I’m hearing I’m not doing well. I hear I’m at the bottom of the totem pole. If I can get to heaven, this will be one of the reasons.” -President Trump

Touting peace credentials before the LORD is not going to help your eternal heavenly cause…

Romans 3:27-28 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On that of works? No, but on that of faith. For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the law.

One cannot work or earn their way to Heaven no matter what one does. This has always been the plan before creation. There is no act or deed we can do to merit eternal life.

2 Timothy 1:9 He has saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works, but by His own purpose and by the grace He granted us in Christ Jesus before time began.

Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.

One’s great deeds will not get them into Heaven and eternal life with God.

See also Titus 3:5, Romans 4:4-5, Romans 11:6, Philippians 3:9, Romans 3:20, Galatians 5:4, 1 Corinthians 1:29-31, Romans 9:11-12, John 6:28-29, Isaiah 64:6, Jeremiah 9:23-24, Romans 4:2.

I don’t know what President Trump ultimately believes. Does he believe in Jesus’ work on the cross and His payment of sin for his personal salvation? That is between the Donald and our Creator.

Can God use a non believer to achieve His will? Yes, See Cyrus and Nebuchadnezzar as well as others.

Did God spare Donald Trump’s life from a bullet in Pennsylvania?

Encouraging President Trump’s spiritual advisors to have a sincere discussion with him. His current advisors include Paula White-Cain, Jennifer Korn, and Jackson Lane.

Paula White-Cain is his lead advisor. Count me suspicious of the President getting wise counsel with her history of pedaling the Prosperity Gospel on TV.

Prosperity gospel preachers teach their followers that the way to gain riches is to give more money to the kingdom, especially by giving to their churches and ministries. The quantity of material and financial prosperity one expects to gain is in proportion to what one gives.

https://learn.ligonier.org/articles/field-guide-on-false-teaching-prosperity-gospel

Material wealth, health, and happiness are the will of God and can be obtained through faith and positive thinking. The Prosperity Gospel assumes that material prosperity is a proof of God’s grace.

Preach this line of thinking to persecuted believers, brothers, and sisters in Christ in places like Rwanda, China, or Iran.

The Prosperity Gospel is a cruel lie.

Genesis 15:18-21 On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, “To your descendants I have given this land, From the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the river Euphrates: the Kenite and the Kenizzite and the Kadmonite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Rephaim and the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Girgashite and the Jebusite.”

These are the ultimate borders of nation Israel per God. They have yet to be realized.

This calls for the geography of Israel to stretch from the Nile River in Egypt to Euphrates River in the east. One could argue rather this implies the Arabian Peninsula or not.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently made waves on a TV interview with i24 News.

In the newly published interview he said he is on a “historic and spiritual mission” and expressed strong attachment to the vision of a Greater Israel, which is a longtime reference to Israel encompassing parts of Jordan, Egypt and Syria – along with the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip.

It would appear the Ayatollah Khamenei in Iran is paying attention.

Isaiah 2:2 In the last days the mountain of the house of the LORD will be established as the chief of the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.

This is from Middle East Eye, an Arab publication that is sympathetic to Islam. The tide has turned. They know the Third Jewish Temple is coming.

~

1 Thessalonians 5:3 While people are saying, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

Peace and security are hard work, just ask Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

Quakes in various places… -Jesus
