All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost completed at present

Trouble was brewing for Ahab and his kingdom.

Benhadad the king of Syria sought all that Ahab possessed.

Kings 20:And Benhadad the king of Syria gathered all his host together: and there were thirty and two kings with him, and horses, and chariots; and he went up and besieged Samaria, and warred against it.

2 And he sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel into the city, and said unto him, Thus saith Benhadad,

3 Thy silver and thy gold is mine; thy wives also and thy children, even the goodliest, are mine.

Isaiah 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth

Watching

Diverting from Kings for a post or two to Focus on Isaiah 40 and the passages that point to how awe inspiring the God of the universe is:

Isaiah 40:15 Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing.

----

The universe is an incomprehensible entity and here on earth we are small in comparison.

But God created it and every thing in the universe is in balance - even a speck of dust.....

Despite this bible prophecy dot connecting by christians who believe
the patterns they see in the ever changing culture of their time is true,
Jesus hasn't returned yet...Doh!

For 2000 years people have been incorrectly saying all bible prophecy has been fulfilled

Up til now - it couldn't have happened because the technology didn't exist.

You couldn't see something happening on the other side of the world - this passage below makes no sense to anyone living in Jesus time.

Only we today can understand the technology it takes for this to happen:

Rev 13:9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall SEE their dead bodies three and an half days lie in the street. (KJV)

This says other people from other nations will SEE their dead bodies in the street.

The tech didn't exist for people to be in a FIELD or someone on a ROOF and both 'simultaneously' seeing something they should act on i.e. the antichrist STANDING in the temple.

Math 24:15 When ye therefore shall SEE the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

Question is - How are you going to SEE the antichrist stand in the temple from a field or rooftop without a mobile device?

-----

3 1/2 years after we see the antichrist defile the temple - THEN Jesus will return

And it will happen

Men in their foolish ways - create idols to worship.

Which of the heathen idols can be compared to Almighty God?

Isaiah 40:17 All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.

18 To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him?

19 The workman melteth a graven image, and the goldsmith spreadeth it over with gold, and casteth silver chains.

Those that are impoverished will worship idols.

God questions this practice and asks how can they not know he exists, and has from the very beginning of time.

All power is in him.

Isaiah 40:20 He that is so impoverished that he hath no oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to prepare a graven image, that shall not be moved.

21 Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?

23 [He] bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity

There is no excuse for denying the existence of God - no matter how wicked a person is:

Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Ezekiel 39:6 And I will send a fire...among them that dwell carelessly in the isles

So far, recently, we've had some pretty serious volcanoes on the islands of Hawaii, Guatemala and now Galapagos, Ecuador.

All these islands have been known to worship idols.

God said he will send fire on those that dwell carelessly.

I would say worshiping idols is dwelling carelessly.

God has no equal

There will be one man - who will proclaim himself to be greater; but he shall fail...

Isaiah 40:25 To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One.

----

2 Thessalonians 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

He and He alone, is the creator of all things...

Isaiah 40:26 Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things

Isaiah 40:5 And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together

--

What's not revealed is how we shall all see the glory of the Lord together.

Is it as Jesus says in Matthew 24:33 When we see all these things - meaning via screen or is it an aura that surrounds each of us, that's the glory of the Lord?

We have almost the same thing happening after the gog magog war - or possibly it's the same timing.

Ezekiel 39:21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.

----
Here - it appears to be through a screen of some kind; due to the fact that there's a war going on here.

What exactly is the glory of the Lord?

From this source it says the glory of the Lord is impossible to define:

Defining the glory of God is impossible, I say, because it is more like the word beauty than the word basketball. So if somebody says they have never heard of a basketball, they don’t know what a basketball is and they say: Define a basketball. That would not be hard for you to do....

Defining the Impossible

So here is an attempt at a definition. The glory of God is the infinite beauty and greatness of God’s manifold perfections. The infinite beauty—and I am focusing on the manifestation of his character and his worth and his attributes — all of his perfections and greatness are beautiful as they are seen, and there are many of them. That is why I use the word manifold. ...

I suppose we won't know until we all experience his glory!!

We still need a peace force on the golan heights. Also, expect an incredible occurrence during the destruction of Ashkelon -- it will be amazing. That should kick off the destruction of all Palestinians leading to the battle of Armageddon. This is how I see it. There is much much more detail around these events that seem quite clear to me but am not at liberty to try to influence them. Coming soon to a theater near you.

Trump is the perfect person to put a peace force on the Golan Heights with the war in Syria coming to a close; but I suspect it will be from the United Nations. It does not change the story either way.

I agree with you

I think Trump will be the president when war breaks out.

The war will probably last until armageddon - which is what the book of Joel seems to suggest.

Jesus' transfiguration gives us an idea what the glory of the Lord will be like:

Small excerpt:

Therefore, the transfiguration of Jesus Christ was a unique display of His divine character and a glimpse of the glory, which Jesus had before He came to earth in human form....

[link to www.allaboutjesuschrist.org (secure)]

It appears from the transfiguration of Jesus that the Lord's glory will be brighter than the light - the kind of brightness we've never seen.

If we look at it directly - one could possibly go blind, as if starring at the sun.

So one has to wonder in what form will we see the glory of the Lord.

The book of Nahum also proclaims the greatness of God and praises him accordingly:

Nahum 1:5 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.

6 Who can stand before his indignation?

God may be slow to anger - but watch out once his fury rises up in his face (Ezekiel 38:18)

Nahum 1:3 The Lord is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked

If you trust him - he will provide shelter in a storm:

Nahum 1:7 The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.

Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen...

From strangesounds:

Cosmic radiation from giant star system is heading towards Earth on intergalactic winds

Small excerpt:

“We’ve known for some time that the region around Eta Carinae is the source of energetic emission in high-energy X-rays and gamma rays,” said Fiona Harrison, NuSTAR telescope researcher. “But until NuSTAR was able to pinpoint the radiation… the origin was mysterious.”

82 pages of nonsense.

Good grief.

I challenge you to go through the OP and determine if anything in it is not true today.

An honest person would admit everything in the OP is happening today.

You can guess at most about 4 things that might happen 2000 yrs from today. Here's your chance!!


But there are 100s of prophecies concerning our end times that are true today.

Amazing!!

Okay - I'll take that chance & I don't have to guess what will happen 2000 yrs from now :)

God will be with us in a new heaven and earth

Satan will be in the lake of fire

the antichrist will be in the lake of fire, along with many others

There will be no more tears or pain

I could go on and on....

Several verses in Nahum 1 gives one the impression we are dealing in end times:

6 ...his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.

8 But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof...
