Full Transcript
In the book of Revelation, in chapter 18 and in verses 9 through 11, we read, And the kings of the earth who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her shall bewail her and lament for her when they shall see the smoke of her burning, standing far off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come, and the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her, for no man bathed their merchandise any more. Listen, friends, the nations of the world line up like dominoes, ready to fall one upon the other, and that will usher in the reign of Antichrist. After all, the nations each have already collapsed morally.
What's one more collapse? Whoever thought all the world governments would legalize sodomy and rejoice in their decision? The cup of iniquity of the world nations is full to the brim. Judgment is ready to fall from heaven. I believe the nations will fall one upon the other through a global financial collapse, and as the nations fall into financial chaos, then the Antichrist will appear on the world stage to take control of the whole ball of wax.
They will be like putty in his crooked hands. He will be the financial savior of the nations, and he will control all buying and selling on a global stage. It will be then that he will demand that each person take the sign of the beast, so to speak, by having a mark put on their forehead or hand in order to buy and sell.
This is the devil's barcode that will control the commerce of the world, and if you don't take this mark on you, friend, I believe you'll first be put in prison and then be put to death. At least that's my take on it all. When all this takes place, you can't come back and tell me I was right or wrong because I will be gone with that great company in the sky by way of the rapture of the church, and those of you stuck here during those dreadful days will know what real evil manifested is like.
In Revelation 16, 15, we see the coming of the blessed hope, the Lord Jesus Christ. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.
These days, friends, are the end of the end times. If you can't read the writing on the wall and see the signs all around you, then you will be caught fast asleep. The curtain is fast coming down on the world stage and the lights will go out on Broadway for the last time.
If you are not saved, friend, then you better become a seeker of God and turn from your wicked ways to have pardon from sin. You must get unto the blood through repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ is the only remedy and refuge from sin.
Get to Christ, friend. Salvation is Christ. Repent before it's too late.
Let us pray.
