[Deathstar 80]

I hope nobody minds, but I would like to post some information in this thread that I have been researching in the past few months. In this thread, I would like to discuss about four different topics. They all deal with bible prophecy. Bible prophecies are predictions from the bible. The four different topics I would like to talk about are (1) A List of Bible Prophecies Fulfilled in our Generation, (2) A Bible Prophecy Concerning Global Government, (3) Global Economic Collapse, and (4) The Twelfth Imam. In this information that I'm about to provide to you, I encourage you to look this information up for yourself.

--------------------------------------------

1. A List of Bible Prophecies Fulfilled in our Generation

First, I would like to talk about seven bible prophecies that I've recently found. These bible prophecies are predictions from the bible and have recently been fulfilled. In parentheses, I will provide the bible verse that predicts the event. In brackets, I will provide a source that seems to prove that this bible prediction has been fulfilled. I encourage you that as you look this information up, please ask the questions, "What are the bible verses predicting?" and "Has this bible prophecy been fulfilled?" I urge you to look this information up for yourself instead of simply taking this information from me. Here are the bible prophecies:

1) The Rebirth of Israel (Matthew 24:32-35, Jeremiah 30:3, Isaiah 66:8, Ezekiel 36:24, Ezekiel 36:28, Ezekiel 37:21, and possibly Psalm 102:13-16) [fulfilled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel]
2) The Return of Ethiopian Jews to Israel (Zephaniah 3:10, Isaiah 43:6) [fulfilled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethiopian_Jews_in_Israel]
3) The Astonishing Fertility of Israel (Isaiah 27:6, Ezekiel 36:28-30) [fulfilled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agriculture_in_Israel]
4) The Miraculous Restoration of the Hebrew Language (Zephaniah 3:9a) [fulfilled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revival_of_...w_language]
5) The Gospel Will Be Preached in All the World (Matthew 24:14) [fulfilled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_religion]
6) Dramatic Increase in Knowledge and Travel (Daniel 12:4) [I think this might be a good source,but I'm still reading it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_revolution]
7) The Arab-Israeli Conflict Predicted (Psalm 83:2-8) [fulfilled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_wars]

The main question that I encourage you to ask is that if the above bible prophecies have been fulfilled, how could the people of the bible have been able to predict these events?



2. A Bible Prophecy Concerning Global Government

Both Grant Jeffrey and Glenn Beck have been claiming that there are people who are trying to create a global government. When considering whether or not this is the truth, we first have to see if there are people who are really trying to create a world government.

According to a book I have called "Shadow Government" by Grant Jeffrey, there are people today who are working to create a global government. Jeffrey also mentions an organization on his TV-show. The organization that he points out is the Club of Rome. The Club of Rome wrote a book called "The First Global Revolution" that encourages a one-world government. I've read a little bit. Here's the link to the book if you're interested: http://www.archive.org/details/TheFirstGlobalRevolution

Another thing to point out is what Glenn Beck has been saying. In the past few months, I've been watching Glenn Beck's show, but not for anything political. It's because he claims that there is a group of global elites who want global government, and he has provided proof on his show. Before watching any of his shows, I want to warn you that Glenn Beck does cuss. He also may show very graphic images, although he usually warns his audience before he shows anything. And to be clear, please be careful about political bias when you watch Glenn Beck's show or any other news show. Here are the shows:

November 10, 2010 Show:




November 11, 2010 Show:




Glenn Beck has continued on his show to explain that there are people who want a one-world government.

The entire reason why I became interested in whether or not there was a group of people trying to create a one-world government is because the bible talks about a one-world government during the Tribulation Period. If a one-world government is being made today, it's very possible that the rapture could be soon. And this is why I've became very interested in bible prophecy in the past few months.



3. Global Economic Collapse

I wanted to mention this because it's linked with the one-world government bible prophecy above. It all starts with the collapse of the United States economy. It involves the national debt of our country. Here's a video that might help:



To my understanding, we live in a world today that involves where countries are dependent on each other to buy their goods. Such as, China is dependent on us to buy their goods. If we had an economic collapse, China would have economic trouble. Afterward, China couldn't buy as much and therefore other countries that needed China to buy their goods would also begin to economically collapse. In the end, the entire global economic system will have collapsed. It's similar to dominoes. Once the United States has an economic collapse, everyone else will as well.

The main reason why I've been finding out whether or not there will be a global economic collapse is because this would possibly be an opportunity to create a one-world government. If everyone around the globe was in economic turmoil, it could possibly be proposed that a leader or group of people to fix and manage the economy of the world. In other words, a global government may be proposed.

I don't mean to scare anyone about this, but I personally believe we are about to experience an economic collapse. If this does happen, it's always good to follow the bible and to remember Matthew 6:25-34.



4. The Twelfth Imam

For my last point, I would like to mention something about the Twelfth Imam. To my understanding, the Twelfth Imam is known to be the "Islamic Messiah". I'm not clearly sure who the Twelfth Imam is, but I've noticed something very interesting in the past few months. It seems that there happens to be multiple similarities between the Twelfth Imam from the Hadith (an Islamic book that some Islamists follow) and the Antichrist from the bible. These similarities include that both: (1) kill Jews and Christians, (2) rules for seven years, (3) creates peace with Israel and then breaks the peace treaty, (4) rules the world and sets his global seat at the temple mount, (5) kills or beheads non-believers, (6) creates a "mark of the beast", and (7) ends with Jesus returning.

After knowing that, I then want to show you a video:

http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/2011/Ma...-is-Near-/

According to the video above, the leaders of Iran believe the Mahdi (which is pretty much another name for the Twelfth Imam) is currently living with us on Earth. I can't help but to think that if the Antichrist is alive today and might soon have the chance to attempt to create a one-world government, then the leaders of Iran (and whoever follows them) would think that the Antichrist was actually the "Islamic messiah" that they have been predicting and, therefore, be willing to follow the Antichrist.



I wanted to tell this information because I personally thought it was very interesting. I can't predict when the rapture will occur, but I encourage everyone to live in purity for Christ and to talk to others about Christ as if the rapture might happen soon. But at the same time, I encourage you to plan your future as if the rapture won't occur in our lifetime.
