Introduction
One thousand years of Messianic rule is promised before the final change over from physical to full spiritual existence. It is at the end of this millennial rule that HaSatan will finally be destroyed and the Father, Yahuwah, will finally come to dwell with mankind for all of eternity.
Of course, lying Christian leaders seem to bypass this crucial step towards our final glory by selling their listeners on the fable that Yahuwah’s Kingdom will be in heaven, not on earth; and that their followers graduate immediately into that Kingdom upon death. Many victims of this lie also believe that they will merely become like the angels. Meanwhile, the angels also face a judgement and await the glorification of man so that they, too, can advance to the final step of their perfecting.
This false Christian teaching is based on the lie that the serpent told to Eve – that we are already elohim and are fully capable of deciding right from wrong on our own. Well, we have all seen where that has gotten us.
Some of what follows will be my own fantasies, but I will also include scriptural support for some.
Man’s Rebellion against Elohim
Man was given the power of free choice by our Creator. There are only two choices to choose from – obedience to Elohim or rebellion against Elohim. The first man, Adam, chose rebellion and made the choice for all of humanity that followed. Since that time, it has only been the rare individual that chose to obey Yahuwah.
Since the time of Nimrod, man has endeavored to create a one world government of their own making that is anathema towards Yahuwah. They were in effect saying they could create their own eternal kingdom without the Creator.
The Book of Daniel only lists four world ruling empires, ending with the Roman Empire. Many will argue that there have been more than that; however, all that have come to power since the so-called fall of Rome, have actually existed alongside of the Roman Empire, not over it. As I have claimed in previous articles, Rome did not completely fall. The political leaders of Rome merely disguised themselves as priests and hid themselves within that church and have ruled from that base ever since.
Dan. 2:34 - You saw till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
35 - Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
45 - Forasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great Elohim hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
As I am sure everyone reading this knows that the “stone” referred to here is Yahushua HaMashiyack. The event happening in verse two is of the Messiah returning to destroy the kingdom of man and set up his own kingdom.
Dan. 2:40 - And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things: and as iron that breaks all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
41 - And whereas you saw the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as you saw the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 - And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43 - And whereas you saw iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
These are some of the attributes of the fourth kingdom. This is speaking of the Roman Empire. As history confers, the Roman Empire was divided east from west; as was the Roman Catholic Church (RCC).
Matt. 112:25 - And Yahushua knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
The very nature of this fourth empire guarantees its eventual destruction. The Eastern Empire eventually found its way into Russia, and today we have the US (the military champion of the Western Roman Empire) and her allies seeking a war with Russia. In fact, the entire world is basically divided east from west, with one having decidedly opposing views from the other. I fully believe that we are heading into a third and final global war to decide which will have dominance over the other. However, the victory by whichever side will be short lived.
Dan. 7: 19 - Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
23 - Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
These verses tell us that Rome, the Western division, will eventually win out. Its most significant weapon is its secrecy. For the past 2,000 years it has operated from within the RCC by fooling the world that it is only a church. The RCC is much more than a church. It is much more political than spiritual. And it has been controlling global politics from behind the scenes all this time.
25 - And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
The change to the “times and laws” came in and about 325 BC, when Emperor Constantine declared that no Roman citizen was to follow the customs and traditions (laws) of the Jews. Several years later he added to this declaring Sunday (not the Sabbath) to be the official day of worship for the Roman Empire. Along with changing the Sabbath, he commanded pagan annual holy days to be observed, rather than Yahuwah’s annual high days. This constituted dividing of time.
26 - But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
27 - And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
This kingdom was predestined to eventual failure, as was any attempt by man to form a future without Yahuwah. The new Kingdom, under Yahushua is sure and without any doubt coming. It will be ruled over by Yahushua and the saints. And, it will be an everlasting kingdom. It; also, will be a one world government. Yet it will be vastly different from the type of one world government man desires. I’ll get more into the differences later.
Rev. 13:1 - And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 - And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
5 - And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
Just as it was HaSatan (disguised as a serpent) that first led man to believe that he was already elohim, so it is this same being that gives his great power to the Beast/fourth ruling kingdom. Of course, it has exercised a great deal of power all along, but has never realized its ultimate goal of ruling over the entire earth. The final realization of this goal will eventually come about; however, its existence will be short lived – a mere 3 ½ years.
I expect there to be sporadic resistance to this kingdom throughout those 3 ½ years; however, the main branch of resistance will be those loyal to Yahuwah and His Son. These are, and will be, the most hated by the fourth empire. All efforts will be expended to wipe out this particular group. Of a certainty, some will suffer martyrdom at the hands of the Beast; but their end will not come about because of this martyrdom. The Beast may be able to destroy the body (as they did with Yahushua) but not the spirit, which will live on.
I envy those who are martyred because they will receive the loftiest positions in the Kingdom. All who follow Yahushua right up to this trial by blood will have passed the ultimate test of one’s loyalty to Yahuwah. Those who have never had to suffer this fate will never know if they would have passed. Yet, only Yahuwah knows their hearts and whether they would have passed or not.
The prime attributes of man’s attempt to carve out their own world ruling kingdom are as follows:
1 – Rebellion against Yahuwah’s purpose for mankind. Yahuwah created man in His own image for the purpose of creating a family of elohim. Man’s contention is that he is already elohim. This attitude was brought about because of impatience and pride.
2 – Abandonment of the laws of Yahuwah and the establishment of man’s own laws. This is precisely what the Christian religion (along with its spiritual mother – the RCC) has taught the world. They have and are attempting to bring all the world’s different religions under one umbrella. Unlike the Way of Yahuwah, which desires all to convert by reason of free choice, this end-time religious body will convert through military might. And, their laws will be absolute and forcibly adhered to.
3 – Changing of the times that Yahuwah has commanded us. The annual high days of Yahuwah all have prophetic meaning attached to them. Many significant events have already occurred during or around the time of these festivals. Many future prophesied events are yet to occur and will also be linked to these days. Therefore, it only makes sense that if one is not observing these days they will be caught off guard and will suffer because of that fact.
4 – Internal division. This is an attribute that has and will continue to dog this empire until Yahushua’s return. History has proven that it is impossible for the human race to agree about practically anything. All global religions basically follow in the same footsteps as the original model – the Babylonian Mystery Religion. Yet, all are at odds with one another. It is like debating whose lie is more believable than the other’s. It is like counterfeit money. Some come very close to the real thing, yet, there is always some little flaw that exposes it. Even within the Christian religion there are hundreds of different denominations at odds with one another – each claiming to be the one true religion. There can only be one true faith and that is the Way of Yahuwah. All others are counterfeits, and will eventually be exposed as such.
As the 6,000 years of man’s self rule approaches its end, we can expect much more turbulence and violence to occur upon the planet. In fact, the final 7 years will be the most violent in all of man’s history. Nation will rise up against nation. It will all culminate in a 3 ½ years period of almost absolute control by the Beast over the entire earth. Then HaMashiyack will return to destroy the Beast power and usher in His millennial rule.
However, this will not be the end of man’s attempt at self-rule. HaSatan will be imprisoned throughout the millennium. At the end of the millennium he will be released to once again deceive mankind. A very great multitude will follow after him and attempt to overthrow the government of Yahushua. In one great battle, all who rebel against Elohim will be forever destroyed.
The Millennium
So what will the Millennium be like? I imagine it will be set up much like the government of Israel shortly after the exodus. Yahushua will be the supreme leader (like Moses). Certain Believers (saints) will be set up to rule over the population (captains of 10s and 100s) . Others will preside over any and all disputes (judges). The Temple will be rebuilt. The priesthood will follow after the order of Melchizadek, where the oldest living human being will be the king and high priest of the entire earth. The eldest member of each family will be regular priests and lesser kings and will guide the rest of their family in how to follow after the Way of Yahuwah. There will be one basic law – the law of love. All other laws will come under this overriding precedent.
I also expect a return to an agricultural type of society where each family is allotted a certain parcel of land to work and produce food. There will be no GMOs. There, will be no dangerous fertilizers and pesticides used anywhere on earth. Everything will be organically produced.
The world, for the first time in man’s history is going to know true peace; and, that peace will last 1,000 years. During that 1,000 years, the earth will be restored to the state it was in the beginning – pure and undefiled. There will be no industries that will be allowed to pollute the earth. The air will be fresh and the water and food will be free of pollutants. The land will produce abundantly.
No one will die during the Millennium. The atmosphere will return to the state it was before the flood. Then there was no rain. The earth was watered by heavy dew which fell during the night. One speculation I heard suggested that the atmosphere contained more oxygen at the time, which is why both men and animals lived much longer. According to scriptural record, many lived almost to 1,000 years. We also know that reptiles do not stop growing as long as they are alive. This would explain the dinosaurs. I believe that this theory makes a lot of sense. And, I believe that the earth’s atmosphere will return to this state during the Millennium.
There will be no crime during the millennium. Since Yahushua knows our minds and hearts, He will be aware of anyone who even thinks to transgress the law. He will send one of His servants to say to that person, “See that you do not!”
Naturally, there will be no weapon manufacturing during this period of time, since there will be no wars.
Neither will there be any banking system. Everyone’s money will be perfectly safe stuffed in their mattresses or anywhere else they decide to store it.
The overriding attitude will be to please Yahuwah. Everyone will be working towards that end. They will not do as the Israelites – worshipping the law instead of the Lawmaker. They will strive to write the law on their minds and hearts and become one with Yahuwah.
There will be no sexual promiscuity, nor adultery, nor homosexuality. All sex while be pure and undefiled within the state of marriage.
Everything will be as it was purposed to be in the beginning. Happiness and joy will abound.
And yet, in the end, when HaSatan is released, many will once again rebel against Yahuwah. One might wonder how this could be possible. How could these individuals, following a thousand years under Yahushua, once again “return to their vomit”? The answer is simple – their carnal minds will remain with them, although deeply suppressed.
Matt. 5:18 - For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no way pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
The present heaven and earth is going to pass away. A new heaven and earth is going to be ushered in. All memories of the past heaven and earth will eventually fade from our minds. All will be of one mind, heart and nature as the Creator. Any thought to sin will be completely foreign to us. Until that time, the law must remain with us to teach us the mind of Yahuwah. The law must become something that we love to do because we know it is pleasing to Yahuwah and we desire to become one with Him as our eldest brother Yahushua is. This is what Yahushua prayed for on His last night in the flesh. Seeking this oneness with the Creator is what the Way of Yahuwah is all about.
The one world government of man is about taking control of the human race away from Yahuwah. They wish to bring about their version of “heaven on earth” by their own means. Their version of “god” will be a mere man (worldly emperor), who’s rule will be limited by death, who seeks to lead all worship to himself, rather than the One being who is eternal and who is eternally righteous. Every previous attempt by man to form such a government has met with failure. This one, too, will be met with ultimate failure. In the meantime, the human race will suffer as it never has before and reduced almost to distinction.
Yahushua’s Kingdom, rather than destroy and otherwise restrict life, will have an abundance of life. The creation of life is the cornerstone of Yahuwah’s purpose. He has the power to destroy all life, and has had abundant legal authority to do so, if that were Yahuwah’s will. However, Yahuwah is a loving and forgiving Elohim; and like any parent, desires only the best for His children. That can only come about through adherence to the all encompassing, law of love.
Are We Living in the End-times?
So, what is to be made of the frightening situation on the earth today? In the West we have the US (backed by the Vatican) seeking to establish a New World Order. In the East, we have Russia and China opposing the ambitions of the West and threatening to establish a one world order of their own. Which one will end up the winner is anyone’s guess at this point. However, in any case, neither will represent Yahuwah and will ultimately fail.
Dan. 11:40 - And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
41 - He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.
42 - He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43 - But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.
44 - But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.
45 - And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.
Note that in verse 40, the beast power is identified as the “king of the north”. In verse 44, it states that his king will be trouble by news (tidings) out of the east and the north. If the Beast is the Vatican backed USA, what could this mean; and is it happening today?
Today we have the US and NATO heavily involved in the affairs of the Middle East. Russia has already established itself in Syria and the Chinese are threatening to get involved also. It is like I have been saying for years, that there is no way Russia and China will stand idly by while the US gains control of all the Mid-Eastern oil. This could be the tidings out of the East that Daniel was referring to.
But, what about the tidings out of the North? Is this speaking about the sovereign territory of the Beast nation itself? Again, if talking about the US, there are many disturbing tidings coming out of that nation. The most disturbing is the rumors of impending civil war. Other tidings are of coming natural devastation from super earthquakes and volcanoes. And then there is Planet X. Who knows what calamities its approach is going to bring?
The main population of the US has definitely made its free will choice to stand against the Way of Yahuwah. Again, it is reminiscent of ancient Israel rejecting Yahuwah as their King and demanding a human king over them. Again, this is going to be a situation that demands punishment from Yahuwah (in the form of foreign invasion and natural disasters). Therefore, the US is not only taking on all the nations of Earth but also the Kingdom of Yahuwah.
Man’s efforts to establish a global government that will usurp Yahuwah’s planned government, will come to naught. The globalists think they are smart enough to pull it off – but they are foolish. For a short time (3 ½ years), it will seem as if they have succeeded. But, again, man will find out the hard way that Yahuwah is the absolute ruler of His creation and none can stand against Him.
Yahushua’s Kingdom is coming. Even atomic bombs cannot stop him. He will establish his Kingdom and it will be the greatest time of global peace ever experienced.
At the end of the 1,000 years, there will once again be turmoil; but it will be very short lived. That is when the present (physical) heaven and earth will be destroyed and the new heaven and earth will come into existence. That is when the dead will be judged. That is when those who qualify will graduate from the physical to the spiritual. This is what every follower of Yahuwah looks so anxiously forward to.
Conclusion
Some in the community of Believers think that the Tribulation has already begun. Like I have said in other articles, I do not believe that it has. I believe the key piece of evidence that the Tribulation has begun will be the manifestation of the two end-time witnesses. Some have taught that Yahushua will return immediately following the death and resurrection of these two witnesses.
Rev.11:13 - And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the Elohim of heaven.
14 - The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
This verse follows the resurrection of the two witnesses. The manifestation of the two witnesses is the second woe. A third woe is to follow. If the manifestation of the two end-time witnesses signifies the first half of the Tribulation, then there is still another 3 ½ years till the Messiah returns following their death and resurrection.
Dan. 8:12 - And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.
13 - Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spoke, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
14 - And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
The taking away of the daily sacrifice will follow almost immediately after the resurrection of the two end-time witnesses. That is the event that will begin the 3 ½ year countdown till the return of Yahushua. Those who have speculated that we are already in the tribulation appear delusional in contrast to this most definite and indisputable starting point.
The two end-time witnesses have not yet made their debut. Re-construction of the temple has not yet begun. The restoration of the sacrificial system has not yet been occurred.
Some of these assumptions have placed the beginning of the Tribulation in 2010-11 and ending in 2017. They are totally fictitious. As eager as we are for the return of Yahushua to come, we must be patient and not jump to conclusions. We are definitely in the end times, but the Tribulation has not begun yet.
There are terrible times coming. Between global wars and natural disasters, the world is going to experience the most turbulent times in all of man’s history. Some of are going to survive it – others are not.
However, in the end, the followers of Yahuwah are going to see the glory of Yahuwah and the culmination of His promises. For now, we must continue to trust in those promises and not be carried away by false doctrines.
It is time to stand up and declare our allegiance to Yahuwah before all the world and stop hiding our lights under a bushel.
So let us all shed the veil of darkness, and take the bold step into the glorious light of Yahuwah.
Yahuwah Bless
