I began this website in 2005 to keep track of my studies of Bible prophecy and news I felt was relevant to Bible prophecy. Going forward my focus will be less on the news of the day and more on continuing my Bible studies and clarifying the study of scripture as much as I can. It has continued to help me recall and share some of the amazing world events that are shaping into what God said would happen in His Word. For an overview of the resources and where I’m coming from and my conclusions, visit here.

Matthew 24:40-44
Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Matthew 25:10-13
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

Ezekiel 33:3-6
If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.

While the Ezekiel passage is specifically directed at a different time, the role of the watchman is still the same. I am here to study scripture, watch and share my journey with people who are as are interested in understanding the times in which we live as I am. My hope is that through the study of Bible prophecy, you will search the scriptures more yourself and most importantly, that you develop a personal relationship with Yeshua the Christ.

Luke 11:2
And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

We may have lots of ideas, but we must rely on God and desire His plans, not our own. God has promised to do nothing until He reveals His plan to His servants the prophets. Amos 3:7 I also believe God did that in the Bible we have today. Everything we need to know has been given to us there. He has also promised us that we won’t be in the dark that the day of the Lord would overtake us as a thief. 1 Thessalonians 5:4

About the logo:

In my research, I have come to the conclusion that our catching away to be with the Lord will occur at some unknown day and hour at or before the day of the sixth seal, this is a pre-wrath harpazo position. I believe the sixth seal occurs, beginning the first day of the day of the Lord, an approximate 1,000 year period of time, 2 Peter 3:8-10 | Psalm 90:4, which begins with destructive wrath from the Almighty. Isaiah 13:6-13 So the events of the sixth seal figures in quite prominently for both Christians and non-believers because that event will be the turning point in the lives of both.

Revelation 6:12-17
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

For those who have accepted Yeshua as their Savior and invited His Holy Spirit to dwell within them (temple 1 Corinthians 3:9-18) and obeyed His Word, this will be the time when we will be taken to meet Yeshua in the air. These are the bride of Christ and are taken to the marriage of the Lamb in heaven. Revelation 19:7-8

Luke 21:34-36
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Revelation 7:9
After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

For those who did not accept the Messiah, they will remain on the earth. After the sixth seal, there will be silence in heaven for ½ hour and then the seven trumpets will begin to sound. God’s wrath will be poured out on the children of disobedience. Ephesians 5:1-11 Obeying God’s Word produces love and selflessness. The 10 Commandments are shadows of love.

The agenda of this website and what it is all about, is to offer a warning to those who will listen of the coming times through presentation of God’s Word, which is fulfilled 100% to date. I hope some of the things I've learned will spur you on in your own journey through God's Word. Yeshua is coming for His bride, those that love Him. If we love Him, we will obey Him. John 14-15

There is a rebellion from obedience to the Word of God today in the world. I believe this is a form of the apostasia of 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4. However, more and more I'm looking at much of the focus of Bible prophecy, Israel, and the potential that the falling away will involve the majority of Israel accepting a man who comes in his own name while having rejected the Messiah that came in His Father's name. The rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem and the potential rise of what many Jews will believe is the Messiah conquering their enemies will leave only the revealing of the antichrist at the abomination of desolation as prerequisites to the day of the Lord and our gathering to Him. As those watching for the signs we were warned of, I'm watching Israel and events that may lead to the rebuilding of a temple and the revealing of someone who will assist in that goal against all odds.

Not only was fish a common food of the day, often used and referenced by Yeshua during His ministry, but the letters that make up the Greek word for “fish,” ΙΧΘΥΣ, also spell out a message about our Lord.

Iota (Ι) is the first letter of Iesous, Greek for Jesus (Yeshua).
Chi (Χ) is the first letter of Christos, Greek for “anointed.”
Theta (Θ) is the first letter of Theou, that means “God’s,” genitive case of Θεóς “God.”
Upsilon (Υ) is the first letter of Huios, Greek for Son.
Sigma (Σ) is the first letter of Soter, Greek for Saviour.

Yeshua - Christ - God’s - Son - Savior

Matthew 4:18-20
And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

My desire for this website is to share the Truth of God’s Word I have learned, building faith in what He said to build up the bride of Christ and give a reason for the hope that is within me.

Other Watchmen:

This list is hardly complete and as I continue my research, I know I will find many more than these, but here are a few people and places I do know are good to go to for understanding of the coming times. If you have a resource to offer in watching for Yeshua the Christ and understanding His Word, let me know!

Rise of Europe

• Bible Prophecy Talk - Chris White is a filmmaker and host of several online radio programs on various subjects. He has written several books on Bible prophecy which he offers freely at Bible Prophecy Text and I highly recommend reading them all. Statement of faith
• Constance Cumbey - With a vast knowledge of the the New Age and a watchful eye on European politics, Constance has worked diligently for years as a watchman on the wall. She brings valuable insight to the spiritual aspect of the rising antichrist kingdom which will lead to future worship of the man of sin and the spiritual influences working to prepare the unsuspecting population, ignorant yet unwilling to trust God’s Word over all the other options out there. She is currently a practicing lawyer and has a very sharp mind that remembers much.
  
• A Time, Times, and Half A Time - A blog space dedicated to monitoring the activities of the United Nations’ Alliance of Civilizations (Alliance of Civilisations) Initiative. It is my personal belief that the AoC is the vehicle to be used to conduct the war on the saints and those who keep the commandments of God as foretold by the prophet Daniel.
  
• Ted Montgomery - Bible based believer as all here with some great commentaries on what he’s seeing in Europe.
  • European Neighbourhood Policy: A Progressive Seven-Year Accord Involving Israel Ted Montgomery - This page displays the dates and relevant documentation leading to the new ENP in effect right now. He also shares his perspective of the 2007-2013 timeframe being the 70^th week of Daniel. My take is slightly different, distinguishing between God’s 70^th week dealing with Israel and the antichrist’s 7-year plan dealing with Israel.
    
• The 70^th Week - This is a site created by two friends who for the past 4 years have been seriously studying the details of the 70^th week of Daniel as described in the Book of Daniel, Chapter 9.

Apostasy Watch

• Lighthouse Trails Research - Exposing the Truth About Contemplative/ Emerging Spirituality, with over 425 pages on our research site, nearly 500 articles on our blog, and thousands of links on both sites.
  
• Thomas (Tommy) Richards - “This Web Site was set up to combat misinformation about the Jews and other disinformation going around blaming many other groups. When it comes to fascism and other abominations in the earth, ‘ALL ROADS LEAD TO ROME.’”
  
• Enjoying God Ministries - “Enjoying God Ministries exists ‘To Proclaim the Power of Truth and the Truth about Power.’ This isn’t just a catchy phrase. It reflects both what is lacking in the church today and what is burning in our hearts. We can no longer deny that many Christians are either woefully deficient in their knowledge of Scripture or noticeably devoid of any experience of God’s power. The Lord never intended this for His people. Like you, we’ve seen firsthand the joyless intellectual arrogance that the absence of spiritual power can produce, as well as the fanatical emotional excess that comes from a lack of theological integrity. Perhaps most of you have witnessed this tearing asunder what God has joined together and have felt the same frustration we have. Dr. Storms believes God is inviting him to devote the rest of his life and the gifts and resources he has entrusted to him to help reverse this terribly destructive trend in the church. But we must never forget that truth and power are not an end in themselves, but serve to evoke and energize enjoyment of God. Enjoying God is the end or goal or pinnacle we seek, for “God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied [i.e., when we rejoice fully] in Him” (John Piper ). Both the truth of Scripture and the power of the Spirit are necessary if we are to encounter Jesus in a place of intimacy and joy and experience the life-changing, sin-killing, God-exalting satisfaction of soul for which He created us.
