The Countdown – Sharing Truth https://cosmiccrossroad.com My WordPress Blog Mon, 04 May 2026 01:05:01 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 135006372 What is Happening?

When truth impacts society so greatly with change and hope there will be ever stronger forces attempting to push against it.  Every year these forces have grown darker and deeper and more irrational. We now have an Islamist, a Pope and a Jew in seats of great power opposing the effort by one man to stop nuclear holocaust. The Jew represents the fallen materialistic Jew in America and the worldly flesh who have sold their soul to Baal and idol worship. The Pope represents a false works-based Babylonian religion, and his background is no less antithetical.  Ironically both are heavily Anti-Israel and Anti-God.  The Islamist is ole Hakime Jeffries who loves calling Trump names and threatening him at every turn.  This guy is a real nut case and pure anti-God, anti-Israel, and anti-goodness.  He is probably the most irrational and toxic of the three.  This evil trinity represents seats of power full of pride and corruption seeking self glory and the destruction of the American system of checks and balances for a dictatorship of a few.

As Cardinal the Pope represented one of the most corrupt cities in America, Chicago. It has the highest murder rate and the most corrupt political machine in the world. The city and the man represent the darkened heart of America.  The Jew is the past leader of the Senate that tried to incarcerate the present President of the United States. He represents all the lies and deceits that have been concocted from the dark corners of Washington D.C.  He and his cohort in the House of Representatives organized a nest of corruption that controlled the weakest President in the history of the nation. Jeffries is true disrupter with little virtue or character, a man willing to destroy the people who truely make this nation great.

They almost destroyed the nation by opening all our borders and boundaries, inviting our greatest enemies in infiltrate every section and level of society. Like a virus it affected the soul and spirit of our nation to where we were no longer respected around the world. This invited Russia to attack Ukraine, China to threaten Taiwan and the Philippines, Islamic forces of ISIS to take over nations all over Africa, and the Ayatollah to coerce and control the nations of the Middle East. Europe was weakened by loss of will power and infiltration of Islam. The Western powers were at the brink of an economic collapse while the power and  influence of the BRIC nations and their growing coalition were filling the void.

The leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran have promised to destroy America which they call the “Great Satan.” And they promise to “push Israel into the Sea” after calling it the “Little Satan.” Yet the blind and corrupted media ignores the “Death to America” chants coming out of those Islamic cults and their leaders. Their eschatology calls for chaos which they believe will welcome in the 12th Imaan who will then destroy all the “Satanic powers.”  Ironically all three of this “crackpots” have chosen this Islamic cult over the leader of the free world!

Flying Dark – Part II for new book https://cosmiccrossroad.com/flying-dark-part-ii-for-new-book/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/flying-dark-part-ii-for-new-book/#respond Sat, 21 Mar 2026 16:52:44 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1280 Cosmic Crossroad Recount: God is Near: Hallelujah!

The Son of God gave up Heaven’s throne and breathed his first breath in a dusty feeding troth in Bethlehem. As Creator, the Beginning and End, He had made man from the dust of the earth. Could that be why He used mud to heal the man born blind? Why would he step down from Heaven to experience our frailty?  He knows that we are weak and easily tempted.  Obviously, He knew how much we need Him, so he became one of us and paid for our sins.  That is the greatest Gift ever given. The Life, Death, Resurrection and Return of Jesus Christ are God’s plan for eternal redemption for all who believe and trust in Him.

Jesus declared himself “Living Water” and said that “anyone can drink of it.” He declared, “I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life,” John 8:12. He gave us the Holy Spirit so that we will not walk in darkness. The Great Mystery is that God’s Spirit is sealed in all who believe in Him, guaranteeing eternal fellowship and life with Him.  And Jesus Christ is the Word (John 1:1) which is “living and effective and sharper than any double-edged sword, penetrating as far as the separation of soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It is able to judge the ideas and thoughts of the heart,” Heb. 4:12.  God moves in us through the Holy Spirit which helps us understand everything including prophecy and other profound Truths in the Word.

It is important to comprehend what is true or false and to never give up seeking the Truth. Jesus called Satan the Father of Lies and warned us concerning the last days that “no one deceive you.” Deception comes in many forms including saying that Jesus Christ is just an angel. There are other more subtle ways to deceive and that is why adding or subtracting to God’s Word or changing its translation and interpretation is dangerous. Since the Church was formed there have been heresies, false Christs, and misplaced prophecy.  We must see with eyes that see.

Ephesians 1:13-14 states, “You, too, have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed in Jesus Christ, you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until God redeems his own possession for his praise and glory.” Spreading the Gospel of salvation to every nation and tribe is the commission given by Jesus Christ just before He ascended into Heaven.  Satan wants to stop it and will do anything to deceive those seeking God or who are lost in sin. As Jesus said, he has come to set the captives free and give sight to the blind. Jesus accused the Pharisee’s of not seeing with eyes that see and failing to see the Signs of the time.  Ironically, we are now in an era where a prevailing system of prophecy is dictating the truth while not having eyes that see. They have failed to see the Signs of the time while blindly suppressing all other viewpoints.

The Apostle John who wrote Revelation states, “In the beginning, the Word existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. Through him all things were made, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life brought light to humanity. And the light shines on in the darkness, and the darkness has never put it out,” John 1:1-4. This not only sums up the Gospel but also the Character of Jesus Christ, Creator and Sustainer despite darkness.  Satan can deceive and lie but God’s steadfast love and truth will prevail. This is why God established a 2000-year Church Age prior to completing His Plan for the Ages. He has been and will be near us during this wilderness period where the Church is tested and strengthened.

Presently God is near to all those seeking Him. In the book of Revelation John declares, “He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him-even those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be. Amen,” Revelation 1:7. People will mourn because of past unbelief and failure to see with eyes that see and hear with ears that hear. It is important to understand prophecy so that you will see the signs and know how God intends to fulfill His promises and prophecies. You do not want to be like the blind guides who give false knowledge and views dependent on false interpretation of key prophecies such as Daniel 9:24-27. Listen and see the God that is near you. To the believer He is in you guiding you and sustaining you. Seek Him out.

John ends his Gospel by saying, “these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”   Jesus says, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no one comes to the Father except through me,” John 14:3. Throughout His ministry beginning with His Baptism we discover that “his name” is “Wonderful Counselor, Bread of Life, the Living Water, Resurrection and the Life, Great Physician, The Lamb of God, and dozens of others. They reveal the Heart of God and why He wants to have a relationship with you. He was also called “Good Teacher” and He greatly desires for you to know the Truth so that you can grow close to Him. Hell is the only place in the Universe where God is not Near. Presently Jesus is very near to all those seeking Him. Psalm 108, tells us that He is “slow to anger” and does not deal with us “according to our sins, nor repay us according to our inequities.” His anger falls on Jesus.  “The steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him,” Ps. 103:17.

His “Name” proclaims who He is and how He upholds and protects us. The incredible Truth is Jesus Christ is not only near but is literally in our heart.  The Word gives us clear hard Truth to guide us, comfort us and most of all fulfill our greatest needs. He is the Beginning and the End and therefore gives us a look into the future. He is the Author of Life and of the Future and therefore the time he gave us, the 3.5 years of His ministry, is the foundation of the Prophetic 7-year Timeline that completes history and crowns God’s mission to save mankind. Unfortunately, this is not what you will hear from the typical pulpit. The worse thing that you can do is to stop seeking Truth.

God protects us with His prophetic commands:  1.) “Come and let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool,” Isaiah 1:18. This fatherly command requires both faith and trust- a willingness to reason and walk with God in obedience. 2.) “Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature,” Mark 16:15.”  Again, have faith and trust to share the Gospel.  3.)  Concerning the Book of Daniel Jesus commands, “whosoever reads it, let him understand.” God wants us to study and discern the truth so that we can prepare for His Return.  4.)  In that walk to Emanus Jesus scolded them “Oh fools, slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken.” God wants us to see with eyes that see.  5.) In the book of Revelation, Jesus declares, “Blessed is the one who reads this message, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things that are written in it; for the time is at hand,” Rev. 1:3.  God will bless those who commit to reading and understanding His Promises, His Signs, and His Warnings because the “time is at hand.” He wants us to understand and decipher the signs of the time and the profound Truth in the Word so that we can pray in the Spirit for direction and discernment.

During Israel’s 70-year captivity God spoke to and through the Prophet Daniel. Some say he was a type of Christ, because his prophecies had a direct connection to the coming Messiah. In prayer and fasting Daniel interceded for the nation and received visions and a powerful message from the Archangel Gabriel. The most consequential is recorded in Daniel 9:24-26: Seventy sevens are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the Most Holy Place.”  Verse 25: Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.  Verse 26: “After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.” The puzzle of words and phrases above is God’s prophetic timeline for the Ages. Verse 27 is not quoted because it will be discussed in the next Chapter because it is even more confusing.

This announcement by Gabriel points to more than birth but also the Life, Resurrection and Return of Jesus Christ. The timeline spans over 2500 years from 457 B.C. to the Millenium period. The first period involves 49 years (7 weeks) to rebuild Jerusalem, then 434 years (62 weeks) until the Anointed Prince, Jesus Christ appears. The last Week or 7 years begins with the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist. The first half ends with Jesus putting “an end to sin, atoning for wickedness and bringing in everlasting life.” The 2nd half of the 7 years begins with the Wrath of God and ends with the Millenium. Between the two halves of the Week is the Covenant period of Grace given to mankind for Salvation to all who believe. The Rapture of the Church will rescue believers before the final 3.5-year Wrath begins. There is no 7-year Wrath of God. One must keep seeking the Truth to be prepared.

Unfortunately, as time has passed some key verses such as those in Daniel have been reinterpreted and poorly applied. What was accepted by early Church fathers has been twisted into one 7-year Wrath of God that omits the severe trials that the disciples were about to go through. It seems clear that Jesus was giving them the warning in the Olivett Discourse, after all He mentions “them” and “you” twenty-four times in that discourse.

This book will give an accurate, biblically centered explanation that fits the spirit of the Word. It recognizes that the nation of Israel was formed in 1948 fulfilling God’s Promise. Knowing this will help you understand prophecy and thus discern truth. The Holy Spirit will reveal to you God’s heart for Israel. In Jeremiah 31:3, God states, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore, with lovingkindness I have drawn you.”  This is just one of dozens of promises that God has made to Israel. God is drawing both Jew and Gentile to Him and declares, “All those led by the Spirit of God are Sons of God,” Romans 8:14. Jesus Christ wants us to know that He is not only God’s Son but also Lord and Lord of Lord’s. Our faith will grow as our understanding grows and as we share this Gospel to both Jew and Gentile. He helps, guides, and protects us and declares: “I will never leave you nor forsake you,” Heb. 13:5.

God literally walked with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. And He warned them and the Serpent about a future battle between their ancestor (Jesus Christ) and the Serpent’s seed (the Anti-Christ). Throughout His Word he reveals thousands of prophecies that light up our past and illuminate our future. They expose darkness, for He is a “lamp unto my feet, a light unto my path,” Ps. 119:105. Below is a simple outline of one of the most important unanswered prophecies in the Word of God. This is Daniel’s 70-Weeks Prophecy quoted earlier and spoken by Gabriel. Sixty-nine and a half of the 70 weeks have been fulfilled but the last portion of the final week carries with it the prophetic era of Salvation and rebirth that was spoken of by the prophets.

  • The 70 Weeks (v. 24): A set timeframe established by God for the Jewish people and those of the “anointed one” to conclude sin and bring in righteousness.
  • The 1st stage (v. 25): From the decree to rebuild Jerusalem until the “Messiah the Prince,”
  • Begins with Rebuilding (v. 25): Jerusalem will be rebuilt with streets and a moat, but in “troublesome” or “perilous” times.
  • Then a Mysterious Death (v. 26): After the 62 weeks, the Anointed One (Messiah) will be “cut off” (killed) and have nothing.
  • Destruction of What and When? (v. 26): The people of the “prince who is to come” will destroy the city and the sanctuary (Temple) in 70 A.D. or sometime in the distant future?
  • Desolation and Sacrifice (v. 27): Points to Jesus Christ and not to the Anti-Christ as is often taught.  And it means that the “covenant” is granted by Jesus Christ in the middle of the week. Those who receive Christ as their Savior will be born again. Jews are included and Jerusalem is now part of the Jewish nation fulfilling prophecy. But evil and rebellion will grow until the end comes with both the rapture and the 3.5-year Wrath of God. It is during this time that the first and second beasts will appear.

As we walk with Him through time we will see and experience His Steadfast Love.  We will see a unity of Spirit and Truth that holds the message together and carries God’s Spirit into our heart and not just our mind.  This is not an Academic study but is a dive into the heart of God and the trust and obedience that comes through Him.

There is no confusion nor doubt when one discovers God’s profound Truth and Love for us. In His steadfast love we find hope for our present predicament and future trials. God restores us and reverses our circumstance. His steadfast love endures forever and is expressed in redemption, sanctification and by His “great wonders” (like parting the Red Sea). He is our daily Good Shepherd that will help us learn and grow in Him (sanctification). There are other profound truths mentioned in the outline that will be discussed.  So, hang tight and allow the Spirit of God to touch and teach your heart and mind as you read the next Chapter.

Note that now more than ever the “weeds or tares are growing ever bigger along the fruitful grain,” Matt. 13:30. North Africa, Constantinople, and Egypt were completely Chrisian until the 7th Century.  Revelation’s 7-Churches were Christian and now they do not exist, The Sancta Sophia was the largest Christian Church in the world – now it does not exist.  In England girls are gang-raped and not prosecuted maybe because it has over 85 Sharia courts.

Do you remember what Jesus said concerning his execution: Jesus declared that he had 12 legions of angels at His disposal to rescue him?  However, His plan was much greater, to be a sacrifice for the sins of the world.  So where are those angels? Revelation states that thousands surround Heaven’s throne. However, Hebrews 1:13-14 states, “But to which of the angels did he ever say, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet?  All of them are spirits on a divine mission, sent to serve those who are about to inherit salvation, aren’t they?”  It is possible that those angels have been reassigned to protect Christ who is us. Therefore, they are helping those “inheriting” salvation. They play a part in the great 2000 year era of the Church. And prophecy concurs that the Church is upheld by God’s hand until the rapture.  We can have hope even in a hopeless world.

In the Next Chapter we will delve into the center of a deep prophetic debate that will reveal profound Truth and shades of falsehood that have grown within Christian theology. We will see how the mistranslation of just a few words changes prophecy and creates a fog of confusion. These Prophecies are central to God’s heart and His promise to both Israel and the Church. The danger comes when we ignore the Spirit and heart in which certain words are used and override it with an Academic matrix of uninspired ideas to fit preconceived notions.

One notion is that Israel was permanently rejected by God when Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 A.D. by the Roman Empire. These “enlightened authors” and others within the last few centuries concluded that the New Covenant replaced the Covenant given to Israel, overriding key Promises made to Moses and other prophets. This rejection of Biblical truth and other dogma helped birth Nazism and the popularity of Islam in the West.   Agnosticism and rejection of good theological truth has grown in popularity with each generation feeding antisemitism, transgenderism, homosexuality, angel worship, witchcraft, and very bad Eschatology (the study of Prophecy). These philosophers, often under the guise of Christianity, undermined the heart of God’s message to our generation. It has become an intellectual trap like a modern-day “Tree of knowledge of Good and Evil.”

We are witnessing how bad dogma affects political movements and policy throughout the world. People do not realize that it is setting the stage for the Anti-Christ and the coming Wrath of God.  Just remember that Christ is Near and promises, “My Grace is sufficient for you, My Strength is made perfect in weakness,” II Cor. 12:9.

As we jump into the next Chapter remember that God often speaks to us through prophets like Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah and many more including King David. “Surely the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets,” Amos 3:7. Therefore, we must take care to accurately translate and understand truth that God conveys in His Word. He loves us and wants to strengthen us. This Psalm is for persecuted people under trial as Iranian Christians are and was sung by Priestly Sons of Korah. It reminds us that we are a Royal Priesthood (II Peter 2:9) and that we can approach Christ’s throne of Grace at any time, (Heb. 4:16).                                                                              “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
  Therefore we will not fear though the earth give way,
though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea
,” Psalm 36:1-2.

The Dark Sky of Prophecy: Part 2 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/the-great-prophecy-hoax-part-2-3/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/the-great-prophecy-hoax-part-2-3/#comments Thu, 22 Jan 2026 21:54:17 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1250 Chapter 2

Was biblical prophecy just an intellectual exercise that grew in popularity during a time of philosophical transition? This “renaissance in thinking” also saw the emergence of Marxism, Materialism, and Social Darwinism. The shift in theology began as did Darwin’s Origin of the Species in the mid-19th century, in 1848 to be exact. The author was Nelson Darby the father of modern dispensational theology. His system of thought predicts a 7-year “Wrath of God” that begins with the Anti-Christ deceiving Israel as he prepares to destroy the Jewish nation and take control of the entire world. The Anti-Christ’s deception involves a “false covenant” with the leader or leaders of Israel.

Darby promoted a new translation of a prophecy given to Daniel by the angel Gabriel in about 532 BC. Gabriel calls it the “70 weeks Prophecy.” The prophecy reveals that Jesus fulfilled 69 weeks when he made his triumphal entry into Jerusalem, a week before his death on the cross. Darby and the Futurists believe that Daniel’s final week of 7 years has not been fulfilled. Today the majority who speak or write on biblical prophecy take this same position. These proponents dominate most Prophecy conferences and rarely allow other viewpoints to be presented.

Most Baptists, Pentecostals, Methodists, Evangelicals, and members of Bible and non-denominational churches teach that Daniel’s final week represents a 7-year “Wrath of God” still to come. They teach that the Anti-Christ will begin this final week of judgment by signing a false covenant with the nation of Israel. Then in the middle of the week or after 3.5 years the Anti-Christ will place the Abomination of Desolation in a Jewish Temple that must be built in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount. This opens the idea that the Anti-Christ is alive today and may be Trump with his new peace initiative or an influential Jew like Jerud Kushner who recently established the Abraham Accord. This generates a false fear or anxiety and may be part of the Trump Derangement Syndrome.

The 7-year “Wrath of God” concept inspires a false flag mentality that may motivate insecure people to distrust good leaders who are peacemakers with a popular following. The “evil covenant” conspiracy can generate inappropriate fear that does not fit the context nor the basic logic of God’s message of love and grace. Why would God intend this? The Archangel Gabriel shared “Good News” of significant impact to both Mary and to Zechariah the father of John the Baptist concerning the births of Jesus and his cousin John. Gabriel did not appear to Joseph to calm his anxiety about Mary’s pregnancy. That was not his mission. Precedence indicates that Gabriel’s purpose focused primarily on events related to the coming Messiah.

When Gabriel spoke to Daniel, he was announcing the coming of an “anointed prince” or Messiah who “in the middle of the week” or after a 3.5-year ministry, will introduce a new covenant. Jesus Christ fulfilled this when he died for our sins after ministering God’s grace and love for 3.5 years. His death on the Cross and Resurrection ended the need for “sacrifice and offerings.” He was the one who was “made desolate” in the “wing of Abomination.” He was betrayed by Judas and in his time of need was abandoned by his disciples.  The Roman soldiers whipped, beat, mocked, and spit upon Him. They stripped off his clothes and forced a crown of thorns on his head. Alone on the Cross he took upon himself all the sins of the world past, present, and future. He was “made desolate on the wing of abomination.” No future commander nor Anti-Christ can fulfill this powerful divine prophecy.

Jesus Christ is our eternal sacrifice, and He purposefully ended the need for animal sacrifices and offerings for sin. From heaven He directed Gabriel to share this message of hope with the Daniel to encourage the exiled Jewish nation in 538 BC and later as they endured four hundred years of silence. Also, God may have wanted to alert Jews and a young Christian Church in the early-to-middle first century of an impending attack on Jerusalem by a large Roman army. The Roman Emperors who tortured and persecuted both the Jewish nation and the early Church represent the early stages of the mutant beast with iron teeth in Daniel’s empire vision. This Roman Empire was also the iron legs in Nebuchadnezzar’s metallic giant. It is interesting to note that in 90-91 AD Jesus Christ gave John the Apostle a vision of two more beasts that would persecute the Church and the tribulation saints.

From a historical viewpoint it was “commander” Titus who ended all Jewish animal sacrifices through the siege and destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple. Titus, as Daniel prophesied was just a commander, and not an emperor and was the one who destroyed “the temple and sanctuary.” As stated, Gabriel’s focus is not on the commander in the previous verse but on the “anointed prince” who spiritually ends the need for all animal sacrifices through the New Covenant and eternal forgiveness of sin. God’s plan would affect all of Heaven and earth. The New Covenant and Christ’s victory over sin and death is why history has the designation “Before Christ” and “After Christ.”

Gabriel gave the Jewish people hope during their captivity.  It would also influence what Daniel recorded in his scrolls. Teachers and students of the Bible agree that Daniel’s scrolls provided information that motivated Magi 500 years later to study the heavenly lights for a sign of a newborn King of the Jews. Gabriel’s focus was on the Messiah and his birth, linking prophecies given earlier by Isaiah, Malachi, Zechariah, Jeremiah, and King David to this special birth.

Gabriel’s announcement ignores Daniel’s earlier vision of the multi-horned mutant beast with metallic teeth and Nebuchadnezzars’ dream of the metallic giant. Those signs like the 4 Horses will follow throughout modern history giving each generation a healthy fear of God and the need for a faith filled life. God will be testing individuals, nations, and tribes and thus, His voice and shaking will be felt.  Through trials God will draw people to him. According to Revelation 19:16-20, Jesus Christ returns from Heaven after the rapture with an army of Saints and destroys the armies of the Anti-Christ, thus fulfilling the prophecy behind the defeat of the two supernatural metallic-like avatars. Jesus Christ, the Jewish Messiah, is the Rock that destroys Nebuchadnezzar’s metallic giant and the hero that overcomes the final metal toothed mutant beast in Daniel. He will also defeat the 2 beasts in Revelation. Changing or adding to any part of Gabriel’s important message would affect mankind’s understanding of God’s eternal plan and timing. It could alter our understanding of the Book of Revelation and the timing of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Note that God has warned us not to add or subtract from the message in Revelation.

Nelson Darby decided to change the interpretation of Daniel’s 70-week prophecy even though the early Church fathers did not entertain his theory. His theory runs contrary to the following comparison of Daniel’s prophecy with the books of Matthew and Revelation. 1) In Matthew 24:21-22, Jesus states, “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.  And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.”

2) These verses complement Revelation 13:5 and 7-8 which states that a destructive beast, the Anti-Christ, will be in power for only 3.5 years, “The beast was given a mouth to utter boasts and blasphemies. It was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months.” And then warns, “The beast was permitted to go to war against the saints and conquer them.  He was given ruling authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation, and all those who live on the earth will worship the beast, everyone whose name has not been written since the foundation of the world in the book of life belonging to the Lamb who was killed.” Revelation 13:5 states that the Anti-Christ will “exercise authority” for only three and one-half years. So how can the Rider of the White Horse at the beginning of Darby’s 7-year Great Tribulation be the Anti-Christ? The Futurist insists on this because they claim the full 7-year period is God’s Wrath. This requires that the Anti-Christ “exercise authority” for a full 7 years and not just forty-two months.  This is a serious contradiction.

3)  Revelation 12:13-14 states, “When the dragon saw that he had been hurled to earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. The woman was given two wings of a great eagle, so that it might fly to the place prepared for her in the wilderness, where she would be taken care of for a time, times, half time (3.5 years).” Again, this verse warns of an attack on the “Woman” who is the nation of Israel and the male child which is both Jesus Christ and Christians (who have Christ in their heart). Those fleeing include the 144,000 “sealed” Jews and other believing Jews and Christians. The woman and child “are taken care of” when they are transported by those who have Jesus Christ in their heart- the “wings of eagles.” It’s possible that she flees Jerusalem in left-over tourist buses organized by Christians who have also prepared “the land” beforehand. This land is the Jordanian wilderness where dozens of Christians have bought and prepared hotels and motels for this exact purpose. Note that they will be taken care of for 3.5 years while chaos worldwide is happening. This chaos includes the Trumpet and Bowl Judgments.

Darby’s theory did not originate from any of the early Church fathers, not with John the Apostle the author of Revelation, nor with his associate Polycarp and Polycarp’s student Irenaeus. Their writings and those of other Church fathers do not entertain Darby’s interpretation. They saw and experienced great tribulation at the hands of cruel Ceasars such as Domitian, Nero, and Antonius Pius and were in the generation that witnessed the death of Paul, Peter, and James, and the destruction of Jerusalem. They were aware of the long siege that starved out the people in Jerusalem. Nero placed an image of himself in the Temple in 67 AD and the city fell three and a half years later in 70 AD. This is the 3.5-year period described in Daniel 12:7.  Jesus refers to this in Matthew 24:9-10 when he says to his disciples, “Then they will hand you over to be persecuted and will kill you. You will be hated by all the nations because of my name. Then many will be led into sin, and they will betray one another and hate one another.” This 3.5-year period is a precursor to the 3.5-year period of Great Tribulation or Wrath of God that will occur at the end of time. The early Church fathers understood that both Daniel and Jesus had warned the Church and other inhabitants to flee Jerusalem before the total encirclement of the city by the Roman army.

Darby’s focus on a 7-year Wrath and the Anti-Christ covenant has affected the teaching of prophecy in churches around the world?  Romans 15:4, states “For everything written in former times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we may endure.”  When we misinterpret scripture will it affect our hope and endurance? Revelation 1:3, states “Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy aloud and blessed are those who hear and obey the words written in it because the time is near!”  Note that this is an exclamation. Does this imply that the 4 Horses of the Apocalypse happened soon after John was given God’s Revelation? This was a time when Caesar Domitian and others like Maximus killed many of the leaders of the church and committed severe persecution on the Church. Many cults were forming, and many lies were being told. False Christs were trying to deceive young believers and non-believers, and wars and rumors of wars were spreading. The birth pains had begun and would continue to grow for almost 2000 years.

In his theory Darby sought to remove the idea that the Four Horses of the Apocalypse and their Riders had already been released. Artists, historians, and others however have depicted those “horses and riders” throughout history as causing cataclysmic geo-political events that ravaged nations, tribes, and entire regions. The early church fathers in the time of Irenaeus saw the death and distress caused by this Apocalyptical spirit in their generation. They and following generations experienced horrible wars, pestilence, famine, rebellion, and/or economic hardship such as slavery. We cannot ignore the bloody Arab invasion that occurred in the 8th century and the Ottoman Empire that persecuted Jews and the Church for over 400 years. World Wars and revolutions such as Mao’s cultural revolution and his war of independence killed millions of Christians and others.  Famines and pestilence killed millions more.

Romans 15:4 states, “Whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.”  This refers to prophecy and the correct interpretation of the Word of God. Misguided can affect the Churches understanding of both the timing and the sequence of prophetic signs, events, and warnings. Has the teaching of prophecy in seminaries undermined the “hope” that God intended? The phrase, “in the middle of the week, sacrifices and offerings are ended,” is not a prophetic Futurist event since Jesus Christ fulfilled it in 32 AD. Darby’s re-interpretation also ignores the true Abomination of Desolation that Nero committed around AD 67 when he put his own image in the Temple. This abomination caused a rebellion in Jerusalem that lasted over 3 years under five different emperors who continued to support persecution of Jews and motivated a siege on Jerusalem which killed hundreds of thousands and eventually obliterated the Temple. The five emperors or generals responsible were Galba, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, and Titus the son of Vespasian. Was this entire 3.5-year period of war against the Jews part of the abomination? It was all part of one campaign to punish and stop Jewish rebellion and therefore, yes it should be.

 

Does Darby’s change in interpretation demote the glorious sacrifice that Jesus made on the Cross for all who believe? No, but as shown, it does confuse all end time theology. The true message given to Gabriel transcends time offering Salvation to all who trust in Jesus Christ as both Savior and standard bearer of the New Covenant. His Name is above all names, and He is the New Covenant which supersedes the Old Covenant. The veil in the Temple was torn in two declaring that Jesus Christ is the mediator between God and man and no Temple is necessary.

In the 1st Coming Jesus Christ fulfils over 350 Prophecies given by God to Daniel and the other prophets. His Resurrection and the Gift of the Holy Spirit mark the beginning of the Church Age. The last 3.5 years or the “Wrath of God” will come after the Rapture of the Church and will begin after the great earthquake described in the 6th Seal Judgment. Following the chaos caused by this worldwide earthquake the devastated world will seek a strong leader who will be the Anti-Christ. He will take political control over the world and will organize a large force that will attack a rebellious nation of Israel and its capitol city Jerusalem.

The Anti-Christ’s army along with the million-man army from the East and the Arab armies will surround and destroy Jerusalem. This will be the third destruction of this great city. The first one occurred when Babylon conquered Jerusalem in 586 BC and the second when Nero claiming to be God put a statue of himself in the Temple. It was Nero who desecrated the Temple and caused the “abomination of desolation” mentioned by Paul in 2nd Thessalonians. He was the perfect Anti-Christ type. History describes him as the one who torched Rome and set live Christians on fire as living torches. Will the modern-day Anti-Christ behave in the same way? He will try to kill all those who do not receive the “number of the beast.” He will also kill the two witnesses that are preaching on the streets of Jerusalem. These two witnesses will begin their ministry before the attack on the city to warn its citizens and the citizens of other nations who sin against God. They will inspire the 144,000 who will be sealed by God, Revelation 7:3. The two witnesses will be killed by the Anti-Christ but will be resurrected by God in 3 days.

As revealed earlier, the last week of Gabriel’s 70-week prophecy bookends modern history with one 3.5-year period happening during the ministry of Jesus Christ and the second one happening at the end of the Church age. The 1st 3.5-year period begins with the baptism of Jesus Christ. It ends with His Ascension in 32 AD. The total time span between the Ascension of Jesus Christ and the uplifting of the Church in the rapture is about two thousand years. The last 3.5-year period might begin in 2028 and end in 2032. The whole “Church Age” covers the gap between these two 3.5-year periods and represents rise and fall of nations and the spreading of the Gospel throughout the world. The final 3.5 years are God’s Judgment on sin and His Victory over Satan, the false prophet, and Anti-Christ. It will end with Christs 2nd Coming, the battle of Armageddon and then the Millennial Kingdom will follow.

Prophets like Daniel, Zechariah, and Joel spoke of this final 3.5-year period as being the “Day of Lord.”  In the book of Revelation, this period has also been described as lasting only 3.5 years.  As stated earlier the Bible never states that the “Wrath of God” lasts 7 years. For instance, why is the White Horse in the first Seal Judgment considered part of the Wrath of God? This horse and rider represent deception and lies and not death. This is an Anti-Christ spirit that has been active since the Gospel began. Apostle John warns about this deception, I John 2:18, “Dear children this is the last hour; and as you have heard the anti-christ is coming, even now many anti-christs have come.” These Anti-Christs will prepare the way for the Rider of the Red Horse who brings death, terrorism, civil war, and even world war.  This is man’s wrath upon man and not God’s Wrath.  The Black Horse and Rider represent economic suppression and a digital currency that will monitor all spending and savings. The Green Horse with Death as its Rider and followed by Hades represents the death of all those who are unbelievers. This has happened throughout history as God has guided “redeeming armies” to defeat the forces and powers of darkness.

Prophecy throughout scripture tells us that there will be a massive attack on Israel in the future. This large force will strike Israel and surround Jerusalem, and it will almost succeed since two thirds of the Jewish population will perish (Zechariah 13:8-9), “It will come about in all the land, declares the Lord, that two-thirds of the people living there will perish.”  In the last battle Jesus Christ will intervene as He splits the Mount of Olives in two allowing those who call upon His Name to flee down into the Dead Sea and then southward to lands prepared for their safe habitation. This is the second Coming of the Lord described in Revelation 19:11-21.  They will join the 144,000 Jews sealed by God (Rev.7:3) and others who fled into this southern wilderness over 3 years earlier, Revelation 12:14, “However, the woman was given the wings of a large eagle so that she could fly away from the serpent to her place in the wilderness, where she could be taken of for a time, times, half a time” (three and one half years). All of these believing Jews and other Christians will be safe while the Trumpet and Bowl Judgments severely shake the rest of the world. This will be Wrath of God.

The prior chapter explained why Darby’s Anti-Christ will not make a covenant with Israel and will not end all sacrifices and offerings in a future Temple. We know that animal sacrifices cannot happen without a Jewish Temple constructed on the Temple Mount. We know that Islam has imbedded itself in nations around the world and will not allow the construction of a Jewish Temple near their Dome of the Rock. They would declare jihad throughout the West. Third we know that the average Jew and most secular people worldwide do not want animal sacrifices.  And fourth we discovered that there is no “covenant” made by an enemy “commander of the people.”

It’s likely that Darby misinterpreted Daniel’s use of the phrase “Most Holy Place” in Daniel 9:24. This phrase refers to the “Most Holy Place” discussed by Ezekiel and others as the Temple or Holy Place in Heaven where the Ark of the Covenant rests. The message from Gabriel does not point to the nation of Israel nor the Temple Mount in the time of Jesus. There was no nation of Israel at this time. In his Triumphal entrance Jesus Christ cried for Jerusalem and condemned the religious leaders that had taken it hostage. The Temple Mount was therefore under God’s judgment. The Temple in Jerusalem at this time in history was not the “Most Holy Place.”

Also, the word “sacrifice” is not in italics in Daniel 9:27, but it is in Daniel 8, 11, and 12. This is because the word “sacrifice” was added by early translators, however it was not added in Daniel 9:27 since it was in the original text.  In the KJV any word not in the original text was in italic. The emphasis points to Jesus Christ ending the sacrifice. Note that Jesus, the Lamb of God, did not die in the Temple grounds, He was crucified on a cross “upon the wing of abomination,” or outside the walls of Jerusalem. The Temple Mount will only become the “Most Holy Place” in the Millennial Kingdom when Jesus Christ sits on David’s throne.

Darby’s Anti-Christ or “Commander” cannot and will not end the sacrificial system. There have not been any animal sacrifices since the destruction of the temple in 70 AD. If the Temple and its outer court were reconstructed today, it would be an “abomination of desolation” for the very fact that it would be a denial that Jesus Christ is the Eternal Sacrifice for all who receive Him. Christians, Jews, and even Islamists would be against it. For emphasis, most Jews do not believe that they need a Temple. They have lived two thousand years without animal sacrifices. The only supporters would be the ultra-orthodox and those zealot Christians who want to usher in the Anti-Christ.

The idea that the average Jew wants a Temple is a made-up theory. In fact, what prevents the destruction of Jerusalem by future anti-Jewish forces may be the very fact that the Dome of Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque are still on the Temple Mount. The Israel Defense Forces know that it shielded Jerusalem’s ancient city walls from missile attacks. The future “Commander and his people” will seek to destroy Jerusalem and not the Temple Mount because their focus will be to decapitate the government and kill soldiers and other Jews. The Word of God says that the two witnesses will preach in the streets of Jerusalem and not on the area of the Temple Mount for the very reason that the Dome of the Rock is still there. Islamic religious leaders would not allow this preaching and would incite riots. The rebuilding of the Jewish Temple is not popular with any political group in Israel nor in the world.

The Mystery of the Rapture unfolds in this Study of Daniel https://cosmiccrossroad.com/rapture-ready/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/rapture-ready/#respond Sun, 21 Sep 2025 04:13:24 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1242
Many Messianic Jews believe that a Temple will not be rebuilt and that we have misinterpreted Daniel 9, specifically 9:27.  The word sacrifice is not in italics in Daniel 9, but it is in Daniel 8, 11, and 12. This is because the word was added by the translators, but it was not added in Daniel 9. Added words are in italics in the KJV when they were not in the original text. It was not added in Daniel 9 because it was in the original text. The emphasis is that Jesus did the action: He took away the sacrifices. The antichrist will not do it. There have not been any animal sacrifices since the destruction of the temple.  If the temple were to rebuilt today it would be an “abomination of desolation” for the very fact that it would be a denial that Jesus Christ is the Final Sacrifice for all who receive Him.

The traditional KJV interpretation of Daniel 9:27 reads:  “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.”  These translators declare that the “he” is the Anti-Christ, yet when you read the whole passage in context it should be obvious that the “he” must continue from the first part of the passage which is the “prince” and therefore should be interpreted as being Jesus Christ and NOT the anti-Christ.  We know that it is Jesus Christ who gave us the New Testament Covenant through His death, resurrection, and shed blood at the Cross and at Heaven’s altar. The proper translation should read, “The covenant shall prevail for many for one week. He, Jesus Christ, shall cause the sacrifices and offerings to cease, and upon the temple all sacrifices shall be an abomination of desolation.”  What this means is that the 3.5 years of the ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ begins the New Covenant and ends all sacrifices and offerings for sin.  It also means that the final 7 years in Daniel’s 70 weeks are divided into two 3.5 periods, the later of which has not been fulfilled.  And take note that the greek verb used in Daniel 9:27 for the Covenant is not “confirm” which would be a man directed action but is instead “Prevail” which is what God’s Holy Promise does. It prevails.

Jonathan Cahn and other “prophets” have opened up a series of inspired schools of thought that converge on one particular year for the Lord’s 2nd Coming. They have independently determined that 2032 will be the year that the Lord will fulfill his Promises and establish His Kingdom on earth. We know that God gave Daniel the 70 weeks Prophecy of which 1/2 week has not yet been fulfilled. Those last 3.5 years will be a time of Tribulation with the 2nd half described as the Wrath of God.  Its details are revealed in Matthew 24 and in the book of Revelation from Chapters 6-20.  When we subtract those 3.5 years from 2032 we are left with 2028.5 giving us a span of time beginning with today for the Rapture to occur and for the Church, the Bride of Christ, to be lifted up to be with the Groom, Jesus Christ in the clouds. This is revealed in I Thessalonians 4;16-17.  This passage mentions the shout of command, the voice of an angel and the sound of God’s trumpet (which is the shofar) that announces the rapture of  both dead and living saints.  Note how it replicates the 7th time that Joshua and his annointed men marched around Jericho. They blew the Trumpets 7 times and shouted 7 times – at the command of the Angel of the Lord.  
As you may already know my last book also points to the time in 2031-32—-on which the 2nd Coming will occur.  Jonathan Cahn in his Dragon’s prophecy book lays out some very powerful date periods and historic parallels that relate to God’s divine timelines.  For instance he reveals that Satan has imitated God’s Jubilee with his own dark Jubilee that runs 6 years concurrent.  For instance the 1917 Jubilee runs back in time 400 years or 8 Jubilees to the 1517 conquest of Jerusalem by the Ottoman Turks (and the same year that Martin Luther nailed the 95 thesis on the Castle Church in Wittenberg). It also points forward one Jubilee to the miracle war in 1967 that released Jerusalem from the control of Jordan and Islam.   The number of days from that historical miracle war in 1967 to the day of June 5, 2017, in which the US Senate approved the move of the US embassy to Jerusalem (recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel) is equal to exactly 50 years.  Conversely the number of days from the 1973 war in Israel in which Syrian forces overran Israel forces on the Sabbath, to the date of the Oct. 7, 2023 barbaric attack on innocent Israel civilians was also 50 years.  This later Jubilee is the dark satanic jubilee. 
In my book, Cosmic Crossroad Countdown: The Invisible War and Final Chapter, I state that 1948 is a key pivot date for establishing the “generation” that begins with the budding of the Fig Tree in the Olivett Discourse.  Israel was “born” in one day. This last generation born since 1948, is the generation that will complete the Lord’s Promise for His Return and provides the timing for fulfilling the 2nd Coming.  It will also fulfill the beginning of the 7th Day of “Rest” or the Promised 1000 years of God’s Kingdom on earth.  Each of the 7 Days of Creation represents 1000 years.  2 Peter 3:8–9 reads: “But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness.”  Considering that Jesus Christ was crucified in 32 AD, the next two 1000 year periods would end in 1032 and 2032.  This last 1000 year period or the 7th Day of Rest begins in 2032.  That would infer that Jesus Christ will return in His 2nd Coming in 2032.
A powerful divine sign is the interesting mulitplication of the number 12 (which represents complete governance as in 12 months, 12 Apostles, 12 tribes and 12 foundations with 12 gates in Heaven) multiplied by the number 7 of perfection (as in those 7 Days of Creation, the 7 Angels, 7 Churches, and 7 Lampstands in Revelation plus the 7 Seal, Trumpet, and Bowl judgements):  7 times 12 is 84.   Add 84 to 1948 and the number adds up to 2032.  As Daniel tells us, history will end with 7 years of Tribulation broken up into 2 three and a half years– before the 2nd Coming.  The final 3.5 years will be the Day of the Lord or Wrath of God.  Another term often used is the “Time of Jacob’s Trouble.”  This Time of Trouble may begin in the mid-year of 2028.
Will the Rapture happen around the mid point of 2028 leaving 3.5 years for the Day of the Lord prior to the Lords 2nd Coming?  On  September 21, 2028 the Feast of Trumpets begins, which comes at first new moon in the month of Teshri (the 7th month) and during the period of Teshuva (which calls all Jews or those in “God’s kingdom” to search inward to forgive debts, seek forgivenss and Return to the Lord.)  Rosh Hashana or the Feast of Trumpets begins the New Year which after 10 days leads to the Day of Atonement.  The Feast of Trumpets is the only High Holy feast that begins  with the new Moon which by tradition is a Day that no one can tell the Day or the Hour.  For instance it would not been seen on a cloudy day or even when slightly overcast. And this Feastival is actually a 3-day period from September 20 to 22 and is similar to the period of time in 2017 when the Great Sign of Revelation 12 happened on the 23rd or the day after the Feast of Trumpets.  To learn more about the importance of September 23, 2017 read any book in the Cosmic Crossroad Countdown trilogy the latest being “The Invisible War and Final Chapter.”
Another important question is how can you prepare?  The best answer is to open the Bible and let the Lord teach and guide you as you pray for insight.  Ask Jesus Christ into your heart,  by opening your heart to change and answers from the King of Kings.  We are like fish in a fish tank.  The best way for the compassionate loving Creator to relate to the fish is to become a fish.  God sent his only begotten Son to show us His love so that we will not perish but will have fellowship and Life with Him.

This is the Roman Empire mixed with the Holy Roman Empire as we know it today.  This 4th Empire will be ruled by 10 kingdoms that will control the earth, Daniel 7:7-25.  This beast is also described in Revelation 13: 1-18 and Chapter 17.  In these passages John, sees a “composite” beast that rules the earth with 10 kings or kingdoms.  This ends when a small horn erupts that defeats 3 of the 10 horns producing a total of 8 horns or kingdoms or kings. The 8 horns last “1 hour” (a short time) out of which they will “give power and authority to the beast” or Anti-Christ (Rev.17:12-13). At the formation of this 8th horn, the Anti-Christ will impose his will upon the whole earth and will commit the Abomination of Desolation on the Temple grounds. Soon later he will assassinate the 2 witnesses who were ministering to Israel and to the world through the media for 3.5 years.  They have judged the nations and brought fire and drought to those who disobey God.  Therefore, they are not popular and when they are killed people will celebrate by giving each other gifts such as candy.  This is a practice that is celebrated by Radical Islam when killing Jews.  It is important to note that Islam has also been associated with this practice and with the Swastika- a cosmic symbol of Nazism and revolt against God.

This 8th horn represents and 8th kingdom that was and is and will be suggesting that it is an outgrowth of Hitler’s Reich.  Some believe that the Anti-Christ will represent a “resurrection” of Hitler or a Hitler-like figure that shows similar traits. Even today we see the swastika used by many groups that endorse lawlessness and brutality.  This spirit of the anti-Christ fulfills what both John and Jesus warned about. The Anti-Christ used the first 3.5 years to consolidate power over 10 kingdoms or the 10 horns and in the process will win over the world’s population including Israel with his charm and with the promise of peace and security. There is tribulation on the ten kingdoms or kings as the Seal Judgments are released by the Lamb of God.  The final Seal is a warning of the coming great Wrath to come. This is not the wrath of God nor the Day of the Lord.  The blood red moon and sackcloth sun along with the massive earthquake are warnings to the whole earth.  The Great Wrath comes only after a lead Angel commands 4 angels holding back the 4 winds “not to harm the land, sea, or trees until the 144,000 are sealed.”  Hence the Wrath begins after the 30 minutes of silence in heaven and after 144,000 pure Jews are sealed.  This happens during the 7th Seal and before the beginning of the 1st Trumpet judgment.

Prior to the formation of the 8 kingdoms and during the time of the ten kingdoms the White Horse will spread Lies and Deception (the Anti-Christ) and soon later rebellion will occur or the Red Horse.  This leads to economic hardship and the control of trade, money, and all goods including food by the Anti-Christ’s enforcers (the 3rd rider and black horse).  Sometime during the first 4 Riders of the Apocalypse God will appoint the 2 Witnesses in Israel.  The two witnesses may influence where the 4th Rider of Death followed by Hades is focused. Most of these 4 Seal judgments will occur outside Israel and in the 4th Seal ¼ of the earth is devastated with the sword, famine and plagues. This implies that it may also be affected by drought and fire, which is the power given to the witnesses.  This 4th Seal judgment does not kill ¼ of the earth’s population as many believe. And the earthquake in the 6th seal obviously affects the whole earth for every island and mountain will be moved.  Some think that the Seal judgments only affect Israel—it actuality it is just the opposite.

Mexico, Canada and the weakened United States may form one region.  South America and Central America along with most of the Caribbean may make up another region.  Africa and India along with other destroyed Asian nations such as Pakistan make up a 3rd region.  The rest of Southern Asia and Australia make up a 4th region.  The Philippines, and other Pacific Islands along with Hawaii, Japan, and Taiwan make up a 5 region.  Russia and its old USSR make up a 6th region, China forms the 7th, and finally the Middle Eastern nations including Turkey and Iran make up an 8th.   Initially prior to the formation of the 8 kingdoms fire, drought and civil war weakened 10 military zones or horns with its 10 kings. The Anti-Christ quells the rebellion, the Red Horse, with a superior force. He restores order with the Black Horse. During this time the Dome of the Rock is destroyed and out of this struggle the 8 major kingdoms are formed.  The Anti-Christ creates a treaty or covenant with Israel so that peace will be restored in the region and allows them to rebuild the Temple. The Temple is completed under a year and from there the Jews call out to Jews the world over to return to Israel.  The Anti-Christ allows this migration.  Among this is group i9are the two Witnesses who begin the next stage of their ministry on the Temple grounds.

The Cosmic Crossroad is Beginnning https://cosmiccrossroad.com/the-cosmic-crossroad-is-beginnning/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/the-cosmic-crossroad-is-beginnning/#comments Fri, 13 Jun 2025 22:46:27 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1223 Anarchy leads to autocracy or strong controls to suppress rebellion for the sake of peace and security. When judges that compromise justice and ignore the law—dogma and more rebellion arise along with lies and propaganda that feed the masses. This scenario will allow the Anti-Christ to spread consolidate his power—for Satan is the Father of lies. Right now, we are seeing the stage being prepared. The international nuclear watchdogs have confirmed that Iran is building a stockpile of highly enriched nuclear materials for the making of nuclear bombs or missiles. Today we saw some of missiles penetrate Israel’ defenses. They know that allowing Iran to continue its pursuit of a nuclear weapon is an existential threat and so they will continue their attack. If Iran hits our military bases, we will join Israel in hitting deeper bunkers with bunker buster bombs.

I believe one reason Trump has been talking to Putin is to make sure that he understands that this attack is regional and not his business. There is a treaty between Iran and Russia —- so Trump is making sure that Putin understands that this attack is to prevent a nuclear war near Russia that could affect the underbelly of Russia. Hopefully he will abide by this effort and warning.

See with eyes that see so that you may know the Truth and walk in the Light and not the darkness. Pray in this time turmoil so that you may understand the Word of God. So many have misunderstood– that the Time of Tribulation is near. They have not seen the Signs nor heard the
winds of the Spirit blow. The rider on the White Horse will soon run his ghostly race to subdue the earth with lies and deceit. Are you ready?  Time is short and therefore the Author seeks help in every venue to get the message out. God wants the world to know that the Great Sign of Revelation 12 was a divine warning of “Invisible Wars” both natural and supernatural that will continue to shake up the world.

In the last 8 years, America and Europe have lost their way allowing dictators, dark spiritual forces, and emotion to command the stage. An irrational woke mentality seeks to dictate truth and policy. Our national debt has soared, and the threat of nuclear war and internal rebellion has inflamed the fears and anxiety of the masses. The war in Ukraine and the threats in the middle East and Far East are taking the superpowers to the edge of war. Like the Bethlehem Star and the birth of the nation of Israel, the Great Sign of Revelation 12 was meant to get our attention. It has a powerful meaning for our day. God calls it the GREAT SIGN for a reason – so why are so few investigating its importance? Is it a Great Sign because God is warning us of the soon to come Great Tribulation and His Great Wrath?

As we study this Great Sign and Crossroad that connects to it, we will unwrap other mysteries and the path to the future. There is still time, but we must act now to pursue God’s Truth for it will save souls. To keep up with events, read new posts at: CosmicCrossroad.com and ToGodBtheGlory.org. The fact that most people cannot open “the mysterious” Word of God shows its power and therefore it’s profound depth. In this book the Word is prayerfully used to reveal Answers. With God’s Word and the Holy Spirit, the blind can see and find hope. The rewards are inexpressible for Jesus Christ; the Author of Salvation is with us and wants an intimate relationship with us. He wants us to know and understand the love and hope in His message, many of which are revealed in his prophecies, warnings, and signs.  It is up to us to see with eyes that see and hear with ears that hear before these “Days of Noah” turn into the stage for the Anti-Christ.   Check this cool Movie Trailer that I made https://youtu.be/z2wQpcbLTD8

Does the Word Really Say 1/4 of Earth’s Population Will Die? https://cosmiccrossroad.com/does-the-word-really-say-1-4-of-earths-population-will-die/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/does-the-word-really-say-1-4-of-earths-population-will-die/#comments Mon, 09 Jun 2025 02:26:44 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1219
We have been deceived: Many Prophecy books, speeches, sermons, and film declare that ¼ of the world’s population are killed in the 4th Seal or during the ride of Death followed by Hades on the Green Horse. This is often used to support the idea that this must represent God’s great Wrath or the Day of the Lord. This lie is then shared by those who have been deceived. And so now 9 out of 10 people have been deceived. Open your Bible and read: Revelation 6:8 says, “I looked, and behold, a green horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.”   Check out the movie trailer for my latest book: https://youtu.be/z2wQpcbLTD8
It does not say that a fourth of the earth’s population is killed like many have been told and now share with others! There may only be tens of thousands who die as we have seen in Ukraine where there is total devastation of buildings and infrastructure, yet mostly soldiers have been killed. In Chapter 7, an angel appears that commands the 4 angels that have held back the 4 winds, not to harm the land, the sea, and the trees until God has sealed the 144,000 on their foreheads. This infers that in Chapter 6 even the “trees and land” were not devastated by that 4th Horseman on the Green Horse.
This is not God’s Great Wrath nor the Day of the Lord as many prophecy speakers want you to believe. WWI and WWII were much more devastating. The point is in the 6 Seals God gives us Signs or warnings of the Coming Wrath of God or the Day of the Lord. Logically it makes sense, for God wants to first Seal the 144,000 who will replace the Church which was raptured before this final 7-year Tribulation. In His Grace and Mercy, God wants to save as many people as possible. By this time the Kings of the Earth are shaken Revelation 6:15, and the Anti-Christ is in control and raising his army while consolidating his power over 10 Kings.
God wants to save as many as possible before they receive the Mark of the Beast and are forever forsaken. Even the 6th Seal with its massive earthquake and the impact by many “falling stars” is not the “Day of the Lord.” As stated in the book of Joel and declared by Jesus Christ in Matthew 24:29 these are birth pains or signs marked by a blood moon and sackcloth sun. They warn of God’s Wrath in the coming Trumpet Judgments which will devastate 1/3 of the earth and sea. During this time the Anti-Christ will commit the Abomination of Desolation and will kill the two Witnesses.

Obedience or Repentance? https://cosmiccrossroad.com/obedience-or-repentance/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/obedience-or-repentance/#respond Fri, 07 Jun 2024 19:06:36 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1195 Our nation is on the way down as were many of the ancient and modern-day empires.  Only Israel was born again out of the ash-heap of history– a message and Sign that God honors His Covenant with Israel and that He holds that nation in high regard.  A new beginning, however, has happened for Jesus Christ opened the door to Heaven to all who believe in His Name and receive Him as their Savior– a chance to be Born again of the Spirit.

I have a question for all those optimistic pastors that have stated or suggested on TV that God will delay His judgment and thus the Rapture based upon a particular Church or regional revival.  Revival is good, but God did say that these last days are like the Days of Noah and those “people as a whole” did not repent even though they were heavily forewarned by Noah for 100 years. So I ask those leaders and you, do you really think that repentance can happen when half the church believes that Israel is not relevant in Biblical Eschatology and that God no longer has a Covenant with the nation of Israel? Sorry but God has an appointed Day and Hour for the Rapture and the leaders in the Church will unfortunately try everything to convince Christians not to worry but to keep the agenda and things will work out. They want the weekly income and are unwilling to believe that things will change.

The important thing to know is that God is in control but that His control means that He will bring judgment to the nations around us that are directly rebelling against Him. The most rebellious nation may just be America as we are the promoters of gender transition and puberty blockers that are destroying children. Pfizer and other big Pharma make billions on these life altering – soul destroying drugs.

We also have the largest most lucrative gambling, pornography, and drug abuse markets in the world. We generate the most idols and other bad thinking that is hurting the hearts of people throughout the world. So do you really believe that God is going to ignore America and passover the doors of evil that are being glorified by our wicked government? Wake up Church, get your life in order and stop worshipping your idols!!!!!!!!!! Start sharing the Gospel and read the Bible. 7 years ago I was warning of a foreshadowing of the 7 years of Tribulation and warned of prophetic events to happen in 2024 and 2025 or primarily in the Jewish year of 5784-85. Read the book Cosmic Crossroad Countdown: The Invisible War & Final Chapter. All the book does is just point out what the Prophets have said and the Great Signs that God has given us yet we do not see with eyes that see and hear with ears that hear.

We are too confused and distracted by the world and our own anxieties. And do not missunderstand. Repentance is importance but the key element is Obedience to His Word—to His Name. Obedience is better than sacrifice and frankly in America or the average church repentance is not sincere enough to reflect even a big sacrifice. How many really change their habits long term?

Is it just a coincidence that we have a bizzare incompetant leadership in this trying time? Is it coincidence that perversion as mentioned in Romans 1 is a dominant part of our culture? God has already judged our nation and the next stage can be understood if you read the history of the fall of Empires such as the Roman Empire.

Why is All this Happening? https://cosmiccrossroad.com/why-is-all-this-happening/ https://cosmiccrossroad.com/why-is-all-this-happening/#respond Wed, 29 May 2024 23:35:46 +0000 https://cosmiccrossroad.com/?p=1184 Just as God used Daniel and heavenly lights to point to Christ’s first coming, does it not make sense that He will again use His Heavenly Lights, elements of Daniel’s Prophecy and historical markers to point to His next coming? A Solar Eclipse with Blood moons, a Virgin with child, a Dragon with a Lion, a comet titled P67, a horribly evil invasion on October 7 against God’s Promised nation, ancient mysteries and the prophetic number 7, Iran’s attack against Israel, and today’s uncertainty and anxiety being felt at all levels of society point to a surprise answer that will solve the Puzzle of the Ages.

Dr. Hofmann will show how carefully God intervenes in history linking the natural to the supernatural as His promises are fulfilled in sequences of time marked out by 6-Days in Creation. In the center is Jerusalem, the mystery of New Beginnings, three prophetic books and the divine connection of Festivals & Jubilees. This is a warning beacon in our Time to draw us to Truth and to solve the puzzle of the century before it is too late. Just as the scholars and scribes missed the signs 2000 years ago, people may miss divine joy unless they read this book. It is a sign that points to both Israel and to the United States.

The Bible has many mysteries, but the greatest mystery linked to Revelation is rarely discussed. Recently a renowned Prophecy speaker announced that he was beginning a program on Bible Mysteries. His list did not include Revelation 12, which contains at least 5 major mysteries. Revelation the Key Prophetic book given to us by Jesus Christ himself, is the only book that promises a Blessing to anyone who reads it, hears it, or understands it. Why? Because it is relevant to our faith and to understanding the Return of Jesus Christ, the Judgment of the Earth, and the Kingdom to come including the His Eternal Heaven.

The book centers on Revelation 12 which explains the Great Sign of the Woman and the Casting of Satan and His Angels out of Heaven. It is a Banner Chapter to get our Attention! It cannot be in Chronological order because Chapter 7 presents the martyred saints in heaven, and Chapter 11 reveals the murder of the two Witnesses.  How could Satan kill these saints on earth, if Satan and his angels are still in heaven accusing the Saints in Chapter 12?

You will discover Answers that will make total sense. This enigmatic chapter in Revelation speaks of a Dragon, a Child, a Woman, and an array of stars that form the Great Sign. Nowhere in the Bible does God mention a “great sign” except here. Yet, pastors and other leaders negate this Sign by saying it happened before the beginning of time. So, I ask you, why would God call it “A Great Sign,” if people were not yet on earth to see it. Are our leaders afraid to address this because God states that anyone who changes the meaning of His Revelation will be cursed? Remember God also says that anyone who reads, hears, or understands His Revelation will be Blessed. This makes the Book of Revelation the most important book in the World to read and understand.

Despite the severe warning many Bible translators have taken great liberty in re-interpreting words in Greek to fit their own agenda and prejudices. A good example is the description of the key 4th Horse of the Apocalypse- the only rider and horse that is given a title and that title is Death. Translators claim that the word “Chlooros” can be interpreted as “yellow” or “pale” which is NOT TRUE. We get the word “chlorophyll from Chlooros” and chlorophyll is bright green. The ancient Greek word for yellow is Xanthos and “pale” is not a true color because it can be used to describe many different colors. A pale face is not the same color as a pale horse. In the case of horses it is an off-white. The translator I talked to said it cannot be green because horses are not green. What? So my reply was, “This is NOT an earth-dwelling horse- it is a supernatural horse because Death is riding it.” Maybe God wants us to know that none of the horses are natural horses! The point is the translators are wrong again- and why would God select another White Horse for Death? It undermines the prophetic meaning. So some translators have made up a new color “pale green” even though nowhere in the text does it suggest that color! NOPE, the color is plain jane GREEN – like a green lizard or snake or grass. The same word Chlooros is used in Mark 6:39 when describing the grass that Jesus and others sit on to eat.

God motivated and inspired Dr. Hofmann to write the series because the Tribulation period is fast approaching. He gave Dr. Hofmann the vision of a great scroll opening in the sky with Hebrew letters- and showed him that it was not a dream by separating the scroll into 3 scrolls—each in a Primary color – and bringing them together—was a profound message to him as an artist. Now he sees numbers like 7 as prophetically divine. Things are not going back to normal as the dark pyramid and principalities of evil widen their control and power. These powers include many well-known corporations and lesser-known entities involved in witchcraft and wickedness. Just as with the spread of the invisible Covid, every level and sector of society is being attacked by an invisible wave of natural and supernatural darkness that is full of lies and celebrates evil. God is shaking the Church and believers must keep in prayer. God wants us to stand up and share the Gospel and be both a Light and Salt to a very lost world.  The books Movie Trailer is below and you may order the newest edition at Amazon as softback or as an E-book for as little as $3.
