The Time of Jacob’s Trouble – Part 1 “Woe to those who desire the day of Jehovah! Of what good is this to you? The day of Jehovah is darkness, and not light. It is as if a man fled before a lion, and a bear met him. Or he goes into the house and leans his hand against the wall, and a snake bites him. Is not the day of Jehovah darkness, and not light; even very dark, and not any brightness in it?” Amos 5:18-20 The “time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jer. 30:7) should in light of the Holy Scriptures truly be called the Seventh Week (Da. 9:24-27), but the world and most of those who are Believers generally simply call it the Tribulation or the Great Tribulation. Truly the Seventh Week is most accurate because there are seven years of time (plus possibly a bit more, 2 ½ months?), however, not all of that is actually the ‘Tribulation’, in terms of how it is thought about via Hollywood and many people, but half of it, the second half appears to be rightfully called the ‘Great Tribulation’. The time period between the Rapture of those who were truly Saved when Christ judged at ‘His appearing’ (2 Tim. 4:1) is seven years, therefore it should rightfully be called the Seventh Week. As an introduction let’s begin with understanding what the book of Revelation is about, as well as the key to understanding that book of the Bible. “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show to His servants; things which must...

“Then they shall cry out to Jehovah, but He will not answer them. He will even hide His face from them at that time, because they have done evil in their doings. Thus says Jehovah concerning the prophets who mislead My people, who bite with their teeth and call out, Peace! And whoever does not put anything into their mouth, they even prepare a war against him. Therefore the night shall be to you without vision; and darkness without divining. And the sun shall go down on the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them. And the seers shall be ashamed, and the diviners confounded, all of them; yea, they shall cover their mustache, for there is no answer from God. But by the Spirit of Jehovah I am full of power and justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin. Now hear this, you heads of the house of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel, you who abhor justice and pervert all equity, who build up Zion with blood and Jerusalem with iniquity: Her heads judge for a bribe, and her priests teach for pay, and her prophets divine for money; yet they lean on Jehovah, saying, Is not Jehovah among us? No evil can come upon us. Therefore, on account of you, Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house like the high places of the forest.” Micah 3:4-12 “For the inhabitant of Maroth waited anxiously for good, but evil came down from Jehovah to the...

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own lusts, desiring to hear pleasant things, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to myths.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4 “All Scripture is breathed by God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 “For truly I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the Law till all is fulfilled.” Matthew 5:18 The year is 2021 and we now live in a world where apostasy is full blown. This apostasy was prophesized in Bible and is yet another prophecy being fulfilled that points to our world being in the last days. Back in the 1990’s there was a lot of talk amongst more fundamental Believers about the Rapture, the Tribulation, the Antichrist, a one-world currency, the mark of the beast and numerous other things. This was not just limited to the fundamental Baptist, but there were other denominations that preached and talked about these subjects. Numerous books were written by extremely popular authors who seemed to use some liberty to describe the events in the way they assumed they would take place. While I haven’t read these books myself, I have seen a couple of movies regarding the events of the “time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jer. 30:7), better known as...

“Behold, Jehovah empties the earth and makes it bare, and distorts its face, and scatters its inhabitants. And as it is with the people, so it shall be with the priest; as with the servant, so with the master; as with the maid, so it is with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor. The land shall be completely emptied, and utterly plundered; for Jehovah has spoken this Word. The earth mourns and fades away; the world droops and fades away; the haughty people of the earth grow feeble. The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, and have broken the perpetual covenant. Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and those who dwell in it are held guilty; therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left. The new wine mourns, the vine droops, all the merry-hearted sigh. The mirth of the tambourines ceases; the tumult of the jubilant ends; the joy of the harp ceases. They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink is bitter to those who drink it. The city of emptiness is broken down; every house is shut up so that no one may come in. There is a cry for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land has gone. Desolation is left in the city, and the gate is battered and destroyed. For so it is in the midst of the land among...

“Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak to your shame.” 1st Corinthians 15:34 There is a term that goes around nowadays called ‘woke’. Everything is being questioned and supposedly new ideas are being interjected into the ‘old way of thinking’. For instance, the other day I read a brief article describing how some believe that automatic soap dispensers are a cause of systemic racism. Why? Well apparently they do not ‘see’ the hands of those with darker colored pigment skin, as well as from another, forces ‘black and brown bodies’ to show their palms. While this might be an extreme example (after all isn’t all of it extreme anyway), nonetheless it is quite simple that these automatic soap dispensers sense anyone’s hands, man or woman, black or white, make’s no difference whatsoever. So it is a baseless claim, but nonetheless shows the characteristics of how anything that can garner any amount of ‘sense’ by such people who are looking for evidence of supposed wrongdoing can pretty much find such ‘evidence’ anywhere. Things have been getting worse and worse in the United States, as well as around the world, for quite some time. This is not something that has just happened overnight, but has been ongoing for numerous decades. However, in the past several years there has really been a ramping up of trying to ignore God’s clear Word regarding certain things in regards to man’s opinion. One can not scoff at God or His Word. “Do not be led astray, God is not mocked;...

“Woe to those who desire the day of Jehovah! Of what good is this to you? The day of Jehovah is darkness, and not light. It is as if a man fled before a lion, and a bear met him. Or he goes into the house and leans his hand against the wall, and a snake bites him. Is not the day of Jehovah darkness, and not light; even very dark, and not any brightness in it?” Amos 5:18-20 Once more I want to address how the events in the world in the past year provide a sampling of what is prophesized to come. As the Lord leads, I believe different types of topics will be addressed in the near future, yet I have had a burden for some time to address this issue and will now address it. The seriousness of the situation in regards to the sinful world cannot be understated. While there is a wide variety of opinions out there regarding the future or current events, as with discussing anything of a political nature, understand that there are also certain truths that can be had regarding the world having experienced a sampling of oppression and governmental control. On a personal level, I ponder the common sense of the lockdowns and restrictions that have been placed on people around the world, I also do not forget the changing of the rhetoric that was told to us throughout the past year. When one looks at facts, not fake science or misused data, COVID-19 certainly is simply another unfortunate way to die. Recently I read...
