The Seven Mountain Prophecy by Johnny Enlow

A Prophetic Call to Fulfill Christ’s Mandate

“The Seven Mountain Prophecy” is written to give the reader a clearer vision and knowledge of the study of eschatology. Enlow discusses prophecy with a strategy for accomplishing Christ’s Kingdom purpose to impact today’s culture.

Enlow challenges the reader to “burn with zeal” in a pursuit of prophecy. He prophesies a coming spiritual tsunami that will eradicate status quo and will revamp and transform spiritual thinking and action. It will bring God’s rule to places formerly subject to evil powers.

Enlow draws a word picture of the power and dynamic of the coming Elijah Revolution. He reveals how the seven mountain prophecy includes the promise of God’s provision for power to fulfill His calling to displace evil principalities.

I found the book to be well organized. The topic headings within the chapter helped me assimilate the new material. This feature also serves as a helpful quick ready reference in the study and review of the material covered. The Scripture references are completely written out within the text. This helped me maintain continuity and helped correlate the scripture with the interpretation or concept. The content of the book is important and relevant for Christian leaders today in every denomination and culture.

There will be some Evangelicals who will take exception to Enlow’s writing; however, in light of global events currently transpiring, it is important to be alerted by “wake up call” nature of this book.

Enlow’s writing is significant, judicious and enlightening. He is a talented writer and gifted communicator. “The Seven Mountain Prophecy” has been endorsed by well known and highly respected international Christian leaders.

Prophecy and the American Economy

As I sat one morning pondering a prophetic message I received over thirty years ago about the American economy I wondered if it would even be worth it to write about it yet once again. I have explained it countless times over the years and some of those years were during the Reaganomic boom times in which no one including me could see how it had any significance at all. I set aside the question and perused through the mountain of emails I get daily and there found an impassioned request from a reader for me to elucidate further on what God had related to me about America’s economy. That email was the clincher.

After my conversion to Christianity almost 40 years ago I started to have hundreds of dream visions. Each one had to do largely with my own life or the lives of those around me. In between those dreams came larger more disturbing pictures of events that would affect our nation and the entire world. I have never doubted the more universal dreams mainly because the personal dreams were never wrong. Not once in all these years has one prophetic dream ever been wrong.

The very first prophetic dream I had came in three installments all in the same night. It was God’s way of showing me that he both could and would speak to me about the future. That night I awoke three times with three separate dreams. The first and second were easy to understand because they were clearly things that had previously happened and that were presently happening respectively. The third dream was the unknown.

I puzzled over the third apparition and finally in desperation I decided to give up and go back to sleep. First I said a little prayer in which I asked God if he could help me understand what all this dreaming was about. When my head hit the pillow it hit me, I saw the past then the present so the third dream must be the future. I felt an immediate sense of peace but that was only the beginning. Eight days later the dream happened in every detail to the letter.

After that I only needed one dream to see the future not three. With some rare exceptions I always saw events exactly as they happened; no interpretation needed. Like a full color preview it is always a “what you see is what you get” revelation and never a “what on earth does that mean” kind of thing.

As the dreams increased I found myself un-nerved because I could find no one in my church or elsewhere who had any experiences like mine. It drove me to question God. I pleaded with him to show me somehow why I had this acute ability to see the future as clearly as some men see the past. I found no consolation until God pointed me to a specific scripture passage that put the question to rest. In Number 12:6 the Bible says “And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.”

So far it has been mostly dreams that show me the future with a few exceptions. Those exceptions were the four or five times I heard God speak in an audible language, in English and that too came with a first time confirmation so I wouldn’t doubt.

After praying my self to sleep one night imploring God to hear me about my need to find work I fell asleep almost assured that I would have a guiding dream vision that would solve my problem. I was a hard worker and I hated to be out of work even for a little while when I was young. But I awoke in disappointment knowing I had not seen a thing in the night.

I sat up in bed and started to feel my heart sink a bit when I sensed a presence in the room with me. Then I heard a voice speak three separate times slowly, succinctly and deliberately. First were the words “Michael you are beloved of God.” After a pause those words were followed by “All your prayers have been heard.” Finally after another pause I heard a one word message that I had no way of understanding. It was the single word, “Weiss.”

The word Weiss had no meaning to me at all, I knew no one by that name and if it meant something else I was not aware of it. I quietly dressed and went to the city to search for work. Within an hour I found someone who agreed to hire me and I was to start the following day. I cheerfully exited my new employer’s place of business thanking God. Halfway down the block I remembered that I didn’t even know my new employers name. I returned stuck my head in the door and said “I’m sorry but I didn’t ask you your name. His reply was “my name is Julius Weiss.”

After that just like the initial first three prophetic dreams I only needed one voice or message not three. Until now I have heard such voices less than a handful of times but I have learned not to doubt. I have always been thankful that I don’t hear such messages more than I do because it is hard enough trying to convey to others the messages or the few revelations I did have. In this world people who hear voices are usually thought to be serial killers, quacks and self appointed seers with dubious motives.

The two most powerful compunctions that come with prophetic utterance are first that you do not want to tell anyone what you have seen or heard. The second is that you know you must tell everyone what you have seen and heard!

In the mid seventies I heard a four part message that at the time seemed impossible. It was prior to the economic boom of the eighties when home values were skyrocketing and the stock market was reaching to the stars. The message was in English and said “Michael you are a prophet” then came the words “you will speak to the American people,” followed by “This is the message you will speak, Ov, Ov Penury,” the final word was “not many will come out.”

All of my ideas of becoming a humble teacher in the public schools went south along with my secondary hope that I might want to became a gospel missionary in some foreign land. The message made no sense to me not only because America wasn’t experiencing shortages of almost anything but also because I hadn’t a clue what “Ov” meant. The word penury wasn’t even in my vocabulary and I had to look it up.

I finally found that Ov is an old English contraction for “overmuch” which more commonly means “a lot of.” The word penury means, a state of extreme poverty or scarcity. America, in a state of extreme poverty and scarcity! Try telling that to the American dream crowd pounding away at the house in suburbia with two cars, strong college funds for the 3.5 kids, good pension plans and success in careers or business.

I took some consolation in the fact that the exact same message was given to Pastor David Wilkerson of New York City’s “Times Square Church.” David Wilkerson became a household name in the sixties when the story of his life was portrayed in the movie “The Cross and the Switchblade.” Actor and singer Pat Boone played the part of Wilkerson in the film. Not long after the film was produced Wilkerson published a book called “The Vision.” In The Vision Wilkerson detailed the amazing events that God revealed to him after he fasted and went into a long prayer vigil.

From then to now every single element of the revelation given to Wilkerson has already happened with the exception of one. That part of his vision seems to have been delayed until now just like my own. He saw a stock market dive and other economic disasters that would leave the country reeling. Like Wilkerson I was early but at least I wasn’t alone!

So what does it all mean? Remember WYSIWYG that would be the short version. The detailed version is this. The world’s greatest “super power” is in for an awakening. It is apropos that judgments, chastisements and corrections should come to America through economic hardships but why. Put simply it is the only language we never misunderstand. The American dream consists of everything we hold dear, the home, the cars, plenty of everything and untouchable security. You can speak of the threat of terrorists or the explosive situation brewing in the Middle East but our own economic woes are as close to home as it gets.

My view of what God has told me has been colored, reinforced and given more particulars by a careful comparison of our history, other biblical prophecies and the general moral state of the nation over the past forty years. My view is that we will undergo a deepening of the economic crisis until the fluff is blown away. What fluff you say?

Almost everything that we take for granted will no longer be granted. Jobs will dissolve by the tens of thousands; goods will be harder to find including ordinary food supplies. Grain will not be used for fuel because it will be too precious. Banks will close, fortunes will be lost and the precious metals purchased for backup will be useless. The line from an old Christian song says it best, “A piece of bread would buy a bag of gold.” Pension funds will collapse or be diverted and securities and bonds will diminish rapidly in value. Stocks will plummet from blue chips to tech stocks. The word survival will once again take the place of success and riches as keywords in our everyday conversations as they did during the great depression.

The message was appendaged with the words “not many will come out.” I have never doubted what that means. Clearly the modern apostate church and the world at large will not haste to heed this warning. Human nature is ancient but little has changed in it. As in the old world today folks will cozy up to the voices that promise great things to come with no downside attached. Ancient prophets always gave their messages to point people to the Living God not to gather adherents to their own doorstep. Today it would be possible to preach the gospel of salvation of the divine pumpkin pie if you have a good enough publicist and access to some major TV time. For that “they will come out,” not God’s words but mine. But don’t worry there will always be “Philadelphian” type churches throughout America until the very end. (Rev. 3: 7f)

Some have asked where they should put their money. In keeping with the biblically derived formula that money saved is usually money wasted, money spent is money used and money given is money saved; I have only one answer. Give it away, as much as you possibly can. (Mt. 6:19) Find some organization that feeds and clothes children or drills wells in villages without clean water or give it to orphanages or ministries that are getting the gospel out. You will become rich in ways that have nothing to do with personal gain.

The poverty or scarcity God speaks of has nothing to do with hurting or harming the nation. It is a wake up call or what the bible calls “chastisement” for the most obvious reasons, God loves us. In the famous story of the prodigal son in the fifteenth chapter of Luke one element of the story that is almost always overlooked is what caused the prodigal to get so low that he had to feed pigs and to avoid starvation he was even tempted to eat some of their food. The element not often mentioned is the fact that he squandered the fortune that was given to him from his inheritance. He wasted the blessings of his father without regard to the future. He lived riotously and the party seemed like it would never end. All parties end.

Why does God send prophets, messengers and preachers to us so steadily so faithfully? I’ll let him answer that for himself from a passage found in the illustrious version of the bible known as the “Message.”

“Think about this. Wrap your minds around it. This is a serious business, rebels. Take it to heart. Remember your history, your long and rich history. I am God, the only God you’ve had or ever will have – incomparable, irreplaceable – From the very beginning telling you what the ending will be, All along letting you in on what is going to happen, Assuring you, I’m in this for the long haul. I’ll do exactly what I set out to do.” Isaiah 46: 8-10

Oh, Those Pesky Prophets who wont Leave America Alone

While we reel from the loss of our celebrities and pop icons a Washington based organization known as the TVC (Traditional Values Coalition) is fighting almost a lone battle against the passage of a hate crimes bill that could effectively protect a pedophile but punish a preacher. Finding news about that organizations fight would be very hard to do in the mainstream media. The interest in one story over the other is proof positive that the entire direction and purpose of the nation has changed.

The culture war is no longer a war between the neo socialists and PC advocates who think the war of ideas is won by just being nice and conservatives who don’t like America being tinkered with. It has heated up to the level of a social civil war where even though no shots are fired and no blood is shed there are nevertheless real victims and casualties wounded and laying around the perimeters. The saddest thing is that we are too busy following the latest pop craze for it to get to us.

Throughout history the one universal deterrent to the rise of any nation is civil war and strife. It can stop a nation’s growth but conversely it can bring it down from the lofty heights of power. In America both our national life and the churches are divided almost to the point of no return. Where is this going?

Some of my articles have ended up on astrology and religious web pages but I did not intend for that to happen. I have put them before the general public in the best online and print publications I could find and purposely declined to submit them to all but a few religious or prophetic sites. This fulfills the calling of my ministry but it also brings the message to the civilian population. It is in that sector that the fate of America will be determined.

I have wasted little time by entering into the church’s debate about true and false prophets. Reams of material is available on that subject but unfortunately the church is so busy labeling and putting down the false prophets they have failed to tell the nation who we should be listening to. In that process some certified ministers and their ministries have been hurt ignored or completely destroyed. God doesn’t call any of his prophets to play the role of sheriff in the kingdom of God. A true prophet is sent to proclaim not disdain.

False prophets can be cunning and deceitful charlatans but the average American is not easily fooled by them. Those who speak in God’s stead for ulterior or spurious reasons are like an eighteen wheeler coming down the road with all the night lights blazing. You can see and hear them coming from miles away.

Some are more subtle than others but certain things remain the same about all of them. The false prophet wants something from you and is very upfront about what that is, usually. How many wonderful offers of new information regarding America have been touted as the deepest, the most shocking and the only legitimate inside info there is, only to be offered to you for the introductory price of $39.95 or more? Is God’s message for sale? In a word, never!

Yet sometimes it isn’t remuneration that is sought but only mere reaction. Pay attention to me, follow me, come to my church or read my materials are the motive. I wouldn’t make it an ironclad rule but my experience has shown that real prophets could care less whether you pay attention to them personally or not.

The single most effective form of false prophecy is not based on a lie but overemphasis on a truth. If I can show you chapter and verse where God wants you to be prosperous and happy I have told you no lies. If after weeks, years or perhaps a lifetime you hear me saying only that, you may need to find another minister.

In a time of deceit, upheaval or encroaching national danger the message of the happy and prosperous life is a distraction that if not brought into balance with other admonitions of equal importance becomes the grand lie of omission. No lie has any genuine prophetic quality even if it is popular.

Many legitimate prophets would prefer to live their own life outside of the public eye. Rather than being anti-social or indifferent it is the knowledge that people are going to approach what they say with skepticism and an attitude of I’ll take it or leave it if I want to. Many of the Old Testament prophets actually argued with God about doing the prophet thing.

Some prophets claimed speech impediments, said they were too old, too young, had farms and trees to dress and a plethora of other excuses were offered. One prophet pouted and got mad with God because after preaching the need to repent to one city, (Nineveh) they surprised the prophet Jonah by repenting! He was so reticent to speak to them in the first place that he had his heart and imagination peaked only with the thought of their destruction. A thought he was not ready to let go of easily.

The litmus test of a true prophet is provided in detail in the Bible but two items stand out above the rest. The first is that they will never say anything that God did not say, for any reason. The second is that if the perceived message does not line up with or adhere to the prior revelation (The Bible in its entirety) they will reject it out of hand.

As for the personalities or social standing of the real prophets it is safe to say they come in all sizes and models. Their most basic commonality is that they are ‘no respecter of persons.’ They are not swayed by dignitaries or the basest of all civilians. Arguments about their message are fluffed off because they realize they are in greater danger if they refuse to tell the message than from the naysayers who may not like the message.

The question that is far more important than true v. false prophecy centers on heeded versus unheeded prophecies. Most legitimate messages aren’t rejected they are simply ignored. Even after healing the sick, the blind, the deaf and the dumb and raising some from the dead Christ was forced to say “And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.” (Jn 5:40)

There are as many reasons for rejecting true prophecy as there are people. Near the end of time it is the collective reasoning born out of the pop or common wisdom of the day that is the most commonly accepted reason to reject the message. When the right stuff is replaced with fluff and the rap pulls the ear to the trap you can’t fool with the cool, that’s the pop illusion. The real picture is more like once pop gets to the top, the cool of the cool, is the cool of the fool. Kno-m-sayin?

In a world that has decided that we have evolved from lower forms of animals and we are now on our way to the stars, all appreciable accountability to God has been seriously deferred. Oddly, this too is prophecy. The extended time between the first and second coming of Christ is one of the reasons along with the pride of a bit of new found knowledge about our world that emboldens unbelief in the prophetic promise of God’s ultimate intervention and judgment of mankind.

These two reasons coupled with a predicted rise of deviant and prurient interest worldwide are said to close the ears of many millions of unsuspecting victims of the last day’s demise of man. The Apostle Peter warned “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” (2Pet 3: 3-4)

In America the new penchant is to claim that the messengers and their message is socially harming or defaming certain people, groups and their respective behaviors. Even while no prophet can actually physically harm another person under the commandment of Christ they feign character assassination, social rejection or as in Canada they need only claim their feelings have been hurt. Poor babies!

Many warnings are now emerging about the rise of the dreaded antichrist and they should be given attention. Unknown by many is that the Bible predicts that the spirit of antichrist long precedes the actual revealing of the man. It doesn’t take rocket science to discern what comes from the antichrist spirit. As the word implies it is anything that is opposed to Christ, his gospel and the words and admonitions of his apostles and prophets.

Our President may not be the antichrist but when he claims that the teachings against homosexuality found in the Bible are merely obscure verses that need not be taken seriously, that is the spirit of antichrist. The compunction or the inspiration that guided the nine justices of our Supreme Court to put Roe v. Wade in place against the warnings of scripture that clearly says all life is sacred is antichrist.

When Europe decided to give abortion and virtually every sexual orientation a wide open field and subsequently to disallow membership into the Union if nations didn’t comply, that is antichrist. The list is too long to complete here but the result is sure. When enough antichrist inspired rules, laws and popularly accepted notions are in place the only thing left is the actual appearance and seating of the antichrist himself.

To borrow a phrase from the commercial world of free enterprise “you get what you pay for.” To use a phrase from writ that even better defines the outcome of the trend toward the antichrist spirit check out what the Apostle Paul had to say about it. “And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:” (2Th 2:9-11)

How convenient is the latest trend among Christians reported by pollster and writer George Barna. Reports are that many are now giving up not only faith in Christ as the one and only way but the belief in a literal satanic personality the Bible refers to as the ‘god of this world.’ Just in time for the big push toward Armageddon and acceptance of every backward trend civilization can conger.

In America we have grown tired of our prophets and we set aside their warnings that no amount of tinkering with the market, the economy or health care concerns can offset the damage that is being done by America’s obsession with sex, pop culture and interests that can only be driven by the oncoming spirit of antichrist. No nation in history ever fell into conflict with God over its economy, it was always their morality. The two are inextricably linked but that may be deeper prophetic utterance than most can bear.

The prophet Jeremiah warned the ancient Israelites for an entire generation that their idolatry, prurient interests and preoccupation with material things would be their demise. In one of his final warnings to them as a few of them tried to escape from the Babylonian (Iraq) King Nebuchadnezzar they protested his prophecies with the retort that they had it pretty good while they were doing all the things Jeremiah said they shouldn’t be doing. (Je 44:1f)

They actually could not believe that God would take away all their goodies for what they were doing but associated their behavior with their former economic good fortunate. The very end of their nationhood was dismissed as some sort of bad luck, poor planning, relentless enemies or economic misfortune. Sound familiar?

No perversion is more perfect than to think it is our worst behavior that gets us our wealth and economic standing. The Bible is replete with warnings that only God can bless a nation with wealth and prosperity and only God can take it all away.

In forty years of hearing God speak through the scriptures and through revelation one of the most serious prophecies I was ever laden with has to do with America’s economy. I could summarize it in a word, collapse. Poverty will come on this nation as sure as the sun rises, in increments that are in equal and direct proportion to our immorality. Whether I appendage this description with kno-m-sayin or an amen the question remains, is anyone listening?

Mayan, Mahdi or Messianic – Don’t Ask the History Channel

Beware the hype of TV’s offerings of major disaster gobbledygook and the list of secret organizations that are furtively seeking the subliminal subjugation of all the poor unsuspecting souls of the earth. Which is it, the Illuminati, the Masons, the Rothschild’s or the neighborhood bowling league; who should we watch more carefully?

Starting with the secret organizations already mentioned do we think that the fate of six billion people will be decided by a few people clandestinely meeting under the banner of secret symbols, ancient knowledge and a nefarious hidden agenda? This is where we might want to come down out of the clouds generated by the television world of exasperated exaggeration and take a gander at the voluminous warnings of the scripture.

Judgment in all of its detail and description comes to the planet not for what is done in the meetings of secret organizations but rather for what is done in the worldwide public arena. In ancient times God could raise up neighboring nations and use them as a sort of whip to chastise those who had passed over the mark. In the last days when the aspirations of ancient Nimrod are again revisited and finally succeed in a one world government God has run out of whips. He enters into judgment himself.

In the Apostle Paul’s long list of behaviors that will be prevalent just before judgment falls he doesn’t mention secret organizations but rather he provides a list of personal sins that belong to everyman in those times. The greatest seems to be that men give up faith in God and simply become lovers of “their own selves.” (2Tim 3:1f) They are the generation that fulfills Solomon’s prediction that there would be “a generation that is pure in their own eyes.” (Pr 30:12)

The prophet Daniel warned that in the approach to the last days man would see an exponential increase in knowledge, he made no promise that wisdom would parallel that increase. If wisdom is the ability to successfully apply what knowledge we have regardless of how much we possessed then it is easier to understand Paul’s addition to the subject spoken almost 800 years later. He said man would be “Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (2Ti 3:7)

Horace Mann said that man could avoid all the pitfalls of falsehood by just getting a better education. Paul said the one thing man could not avoid is the pitfall of pride. If a little knowledge goes a long way then we can see how our scientific discoveries have brought us to the place we have decided that omniscience belongs to man rather than God. When Paul said “the foolishness of God is wiser than men” (1Co 1:25) he was not inferring that God and man were in a contest but only that God’s omniscience lacked the one element that man cannot dispense with for trying: pride. Thus Paul concluded that “Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.” (1Co 8:1) Love, Paul said, is far superior to knowledge, but in the last days even that would come at a premium according to Christ. “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” (Mt 24:12)

In the face of thousands of new discoveries that support intelligent design and in the blaring and continued absence of the untold millions of missing links to prove inter species evolution, we still insist that we are the progeny of apes and monkeys. Could it be that there is a little pride involved here? When the founders of modern education told us to question all authority did they forget to include themselves? Evolution is the crown jewel of modernity’s system of education and knowledge but so far all it has served to prove is that pride still rules in the hearts of men; real evidence and real knowledge notwithstanding.

So the picture of the last days is one of increased knowledge, decreased love and a time of immorality unprecedented in the in the entire course of human history. This is what precipitates judgment, intervention and the final consummation of the will of God. A few people gathered in dingy halls adorned with walls full of secret symbols will decide nothing.

One often overlooked but very important theology might be called the judgment before the final judgment. It is summarized in this passage penned by Paul. “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.” (Ro 1:28)

Reprobation is fundamentally simple. It is the inability to discern between what is actually good or evil. It is the mushy middle ground where all that can be accomplished is judging between the lesser of two evils. It is what makes us think that it is OK to expose elementary grade students to the gay agenda at the same time we gather to protest Ronald McDonald’s influence on the obesity of children. It is what makes clowns of us all. It is the very definition of the word, lost. Being “given over” as Paul says is a place where recovery is next to impossible. It is an inner light that has finally burned out.

What about the Mahdi will he appear alongside Christ in the Parousia or second coming? Should we worry about the obscure Muslim belief that half of Islam disregards and is not mentioned once in the Koran? That can be answered by the fact that there are no co-redemptive’s appearing at the second advent along with Christ. He alone comes in victory to subdue a world that has begun the worship of man (the antichrist) and he alone leads in the battle of Armageddon.

He alone will deal with the hordes of armies gathered 55 miles north of Jerusalem in the Valley of Jezreel. He alone will set his feet on the Mount of Olives from where he ascended.

Unlike the long list of despots, dictators, religious figures and wannabes before him he alone is chosen to appear in victory because of something he accomplished completely alone many years before. He alone spoke the words of life, he alone died for the sins of the world and he alone conquered death and the grave. In the final day he also stands alone as “the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.” (Rev 19:16)

What about the Mayans and the new interest in the Mayan calendar that assigns a date in December of 2012 to the end of the world? First, the bible clearly tells us that the return of Christ is not the end of the world. After removing the antichrist he will take over the rule of the entire earth and will continue to rule for a full one thousand years. (Rev 20:6)

Secondly Christ strictly warned that no man would know the day or the hour of his return. (Mt. 24:36) If the second coming does fall in or around that date it will be a matter of pure coincidence and nothing more. Even at that it is hard to deny that after weighing all the signs and fulfilled prophecies of our day it does seem that the period known as the tribulation looks like it may begin just about that time.

That period will be preceded with a relative calm in the world as the nations rejoice over the man they think is going to lead them to a wonderful utopian world of brotherhood and prosperity. Halfway through that seven year long period he will show his true colors and begin the systematic destruction of Christians and Jews. He will bring down direct intervention from God and cities will be flattened, mountains moved and death will ensue on a scale never imagined by anyone. We are talking about billions not millions of deaths and no one will dare say it is Mother Nature gone wild.

Most of these portents are seen in the book of Revelation but about one quarter of the entire bible is on the subject of Christ’ return and final rule. Oddly, the book of Revelation is the only book in the Bible that comes with a strict warning. It says that to add anything or take anything out of it will lead to a serious judgment for anyone doing so. (Rev 22:18)

In conclusion should we be bothered with Mayan calendars, the Mahdi, meteors and asteroids or should we acquaint ourselves with the promises, and full descriptive of the last day’s events as spoken to us by the one who conquered death? I will let him answer that for himself.

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” (Rev 22:16, 17)
