The Last Days
“But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” II Timothy 3:1-5
Description of what it will be like in the last days prior to the end of the age Or the dispensation of grace
End of grace age will be succeeded by Christs reign in righteousness
“Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.” Revelation 11:15 ESV
“And to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.” Daniel 7:14 ESV
“And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, nor shall the kingdom be left to another people. It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever,”. Daniel 2:44 ESV
“and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 1:6 ESV
Birth pains of events will trigger signs of when will Jesus Kingdom be
“And Jesus answered them, “See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.” Matthew 24:4-8 ESV
Birth pains-like birth pains at child bearing will grow closer together to allow the baby to position itself into the birth canal
“that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.”. Romans 8:21-23 ESV
As the time of delivery draws near, birth pangs always increase in both intensity and frequency. Therefore, the creation itself would travail with increased frequency as the time of delivery draws near.
The speeding up of time or shortening of days
“For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.” Matthew 24:21-22 ESV
““Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.”. Matthew 24:29 ESV
This is the climax of shortened time but most likely it will have begun and are we seeing it now to some extent?
““And on that day,” declares the Lord God, “I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight.” Amos 8:9 ESV
Daniel 12:4 tells us that the time of revealing we will see knowledge increase
Revelation 11:14 says the third woe is coming quickly. The speeding up of things
“Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.” Revelation 11:15 ESV
God’s kingdom is a Holy Ghost takeover. First the heart of man and then to receive the world back to himself. Thy Kingdom come on earth!
The devil is not just gonna lie back and let it happen. Through history we have seen the devil opposing.
Could we be on the horizon of the last Passover or the last Purim?
Hebrews in bondage to Egypt for 430
“Now the sojourn of the children of Israel who lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years—on that very same day—it came to pass that all the armies of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. It is a night of solemn observance to the Lord for bringing them out of the land of Egypt. This is that night of the Lord, a solemn observance for all the children of Israel throughout their generations.” Exodus 12:40-42 NKJV
Jamestown[a] settlement in the Colony of Virginia was the first permanent English settlementin the Americas. It was established by the Virginia Company of London as “James Fort” on May 4, 1607

Could we see anti christ revealed in 2030?
World Economic Forum video on 8 predictions for 2030 which includes the surrender of the United States to the United Nations – they just say the US will no longer be the world Superpower. They will end eating meat, hence Gates’ investment in meat alternatives, will make fossil fuels history which is why Biden said in the debate he will end the fossil fuel industry and he will rejoin the United Nations.
A quote by one of the “architects” of the European Union. Back in the 1970’s the Belgian Prime Minister said, “What we want is a man … to lift us out of the economic morass into which we are sinking. Send us such a man, and be he god or devil, we will receive him.” When the audience in the sanctuary heard this, There was an audible gasp!
