My goal is to post one or two per day. However, I thought I'd begin the thread with the first 10. There are several amplifying & reference links under each one at his website.
-------------------------------------------
1.
False Bible teachers would bring in heresies, have many followers, and cause others to reject God's Word (2 Peter 2:1-2). It is very common today to find people who reject the Bible out of hand because they have heard it misrepresented by a false teacher.
2.
These false prophets would be money hungry, smooth talkers (2 Peter 2:3). A growing number of TV evangelists epitomize this. They twist the Scriptures, using misleading words, to make merchandise of the unwary.
3.
The Christian gospel would be preached as a witness to all nations (Matthew 24:14; Mark 13:10; Revelation 14:6). Today, portions or all of the Bible have been translated into over 2,400 languages and dialects covering over 90% of the world's population.
4.
Global communications foreseen (Revelation 11:9-10; 17:8). The Bible prophesies that the entire world will see certain events unfold. The invention of the television and the deployment of global satellite networks during the 20th century allow news to travel the world at the speed of light for the first time ever. Remember that in the apostle John's day, news traveled at the speed of horseback.
5.
Mankind would be capable of destroying all life (Matthew 24:21-22). Consider that when Jesus made this prophecy the armaments of His day were swords and spears. But today, with nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons, it is possible to wipe out all flesh on planet earth.
6.
The use of nuclear weapons anticipated (Zechariah 14:12). The neutron bomb melts (dissolves) its victims just as God warned 2500 years ago. "Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths." This was unimaginable in Zechariah's day.
7.
There would be a global cry for peace (1 Thessalonians 5:3). Never has there been such a concerted, global effort to bring about peace at any cost as there is today.
8.
The Antichrist would use (false) peace to destroy many (Daniel 8:23-25). With all the problems facing mankind, multitudes are looking for a savior to usher in peace and prosperity without moral accountability. The Antichrist will promise the world and Israel such a peace if they follow him but his intentions will be sinister.
9.
In the last days Israel would have a peace treaty in place that the Antichrist will confirm and eventually break (Daniel 9:27). Currently the world's governments are striving for an Israeli peace treaty.
10.
Damascus would be destroyed (Isaiah 17; Jeremiah 49:23-27; Amos 1:3-5; Zechariah 9:1-8). Damascus, Syria is increasingly in the news and is extremely anti-Semitic. Many terrorist organizations have their bases in Damascus. God declares that they will become a ruinous heap because they have violently taken what was not theirs. In 2007 Israel vowed to wipe Syria off the map if Syria attacked by chemical weapons.
WELL PUT.
The millenia long plans of satan are progressing more and more rapidly in these END TIMES.
INDEED.
I was searching photobucket.com—a pretty family oriented site—for some humor, laughing gifs.
And the vile stuff under “hilarious” was hideous.
Lots of f word stuff. I may protest next time I go there. It’s just so rife. Incredible.
Example I will meet a friend of a friend. Well the friend tells me when the other did not know this either she knows how to “read”. Then wants to read me. Right away I jump and tell her in Blood of Christ you are not reading me. “oh it’s harmless “ Just amazing.
Yeah. There’s a host of occultic stuff being passed of as reasonable, normal and ‘good’ . . . evil called good and good called evil.
Sigh.
Thanks.
Interesting. Thanks.

I think DAMASCUS being slated for destruction is one of the most significant Biblical prophetic mile-posts that we have still pending on the near horizon.
Preterists, Replacementarians et al who contend that . . . essentially . . . more or less all the END TIMES Biblical prophecies occurred in 70 A.D. have always demonstrated a gross lack of logic and cluelessness. However to contend that Damascus was destroyed then never to be lived in again would be utter idiocy. So, they kind of slip and slide around that one.
Nevertheless, the puzzle pieces are increasingly fitting into place for Damascus’ utter and thorough destruction just as The Bible declares.
Here’s some links from Jim Tetlow’s website on that item of the 101 items:

Didn't you get the memo? Preterism is a totally discredited joke.
Tell me, what technology did they have in 70AD that enabled one man to number every person on earth, not just the known world at that time, but the entire globe, and to stop them from buying and selling if they didn't have a particular mark?
Hmmmmmm????????
We are the only generation in history that is seeing all the signs given by Christ, in conjunction with each other and happening at the same time, that tell us that His return for His Church and then His physical return to earth is about to occur.
I think we need to watch Damascus - the Isaiah 17:1 prophecy is looking like it's beginning to take shape.....

11. Chaotic weather would be prevalent (Luke 21:25-26). Jesus foresaw the seas and the waves roaring in the last days. He also likened these signs to birth pangs (Matthew 24:8). The Greek word odin, often translated as sorrows in Matthew 24:8, literally means birth pangs. Furthermore, the apostle Paul reminded us that the creation itself will be delivered from the curse at the end of the age (Romans 8:21). And that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs (Romans 8:22). As delivery draws near, birth pangs always increase in both intensity and frequency. Therefore, the creation itself would travail as the time of delivery draws near. Of course chaotic weather is not new, but there are many indications that we are witnessing an increase in extreme weather. See: 12. See: |
INDEED. INDEED.
I too *THINK* that the Damascus prophecy MAY well be on the near horizon.
There are some aspects of it that may not fit precisely the current situation . . . or they may . . . we shall see.
Certainly Damascus’ days are numbered . . . as are all of ours.
MARANATHA!

I just read Isaiah 17 and Ezekiel 38. It sounds to me like two different wars, with the first one (Isaiah 17) being pretty terrible for Israel and ending in the complete destruction of Damascus. Then, as Israel recovers, the Ezekiel 38 war occurs. Is this off the mark? It sounds like it’s going to be very bad for Israel initially.
Here’s some links from/related to the earlier prophecies from the 101 posted above:
From prophecy numbered:
1. FALSE BIBLE TEACHERS, CULTS
an INDEX of cults:
http://www.cults.co.nz/index.php
I have not viewed many of the pages. What I have scanned seems reasonably kosher in terms of description and perspective. I suspect there’d be some assertions I’d quibble with out of so much info.
2. FALSE PROPHETS
There’s a number of links re the GOSPEL OF GREED.
And, it’s a serious problem. However, I don’t like the broad brush used on some folks. The Bible does indicate that following God, walking close to God results in tangible blessings compared to those who don’t. Nevertheless, there are those who seem to walk very close to God and still live in extreme poverty. I don’t have a brilliant explanation other than that I’m utterly convinced that the poverty folks walking close to God will have great eternal wealth for their suffering.

Recent China disclosures probably call such stats into serious question.
I never have managed to sort that out in some linear timeline.
Your explanation is likely as good as any I’ve read.
Certainly God will discipline Israel at some point within an inch of it’s life for their foresaking Him and His ways.
The bulk of Israel currently is secular.
Existential issues of existence vs non-existence have a way of sharpening one’s focus on eternal issues
and on God.
I haven’t found anyone who seems to have it all figured out. I sure don’t.
And, I think God is too great a General to clue satan in on a LOT of things, ahead of time.
Thanks for your kind reply.
Thanks for the ping!
