Notes on End Time Struggles

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12
Events Before Jesus Returns

"Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by any letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. Remember ye not that when I was with you I told you these things? And now ye know what witholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way (notice the word restrainer isn't here anymore). 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, who's coming is after the working of Satan with all power and l-y-i-n-g s-i-g-n-s a-n-d w-o-n-d-e-r-s, 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: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

1. Jesus won't return until after there is first a great falling away.
2. Satan causes the lying signs and wonders.
3. God sends a strong delusion that they will believe a lie, those who have not the love for the truth.
4. The man of sin isn't revealed until after satan is doing his lying signs and wonder.
5. This anti-christ pretends to be God.
6. Jesus will free us from him when He returns coming from the clouds.

Amos 8:11-12 Famine Of Hearing The Words Of The Lord
"T-h-e days c-o-m-e-t-h, s-a-y-e-t-h the Lord, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. And they shall wonder from sea to see, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro and seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it."

Notes: As part of the lying signs and wonders, we are seeing scriptures change. This is corrupting scriptures to the point where there are verses we can't even make out what the original words were. Not only that but it looks like we are seeing mixing of scriptures such as "infidel" that Christians don't use and Hebrew Rights Movement stuff where there is many repeats of "God's law" within the bible.

Much of this is causing the famine for hearing the words of the Lord. If you are in the delusion, you can't preach what you can't read within scriptures. It gets more dangerous as scriptures change because people follow right along with the words as complete truth.

John 1:1
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

John 1:14
"And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us full of grace and truth."

Revelations 19:13
"And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood and His name is called The Word of God."

These scripture changes are creating a famine for what we know really happened in history. The bible is not just a fantasy story but real history…and it's being changed supernaturally. Scriptures is not "The Word of God" but was always "The inspired word of God". The book of John said that in the beginning the Word was with God and the Word was God. It then goes on to say that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us and by that alone you should know that the bible never became Jesus. This is driven home in Revelations where Jesus has a vesture dipped in blood having a name no one knew which is "The Word of God."

2 Corinthians 4:3-4
"But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."

2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
"And for this cause God shall send them a strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness"

There are two groups that see the lying signs and wonders that we are dealing with. We can only guess at why we all see the changes but for the most part we have concluded it's a combination of these scriptures. For the awakened people that see only the world changes, this would be because they still have a love for the truth. They realize the news and what we are being told doesn't seem to be matching up with what is really happening. They trust their memories about the things that are around them so when changes occur, it is noticeable to them that things are different such as the JFK car that changed, the Statue of Liberty moving islands, the Mona Lisa smiling, Curious George now having a tail, and many more.

The second group are Christians that have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and our Father in Heaven. We realize that scriptures were always just a manual/guide/map for us to follow to learn about our Father and Jesus and come to have a personal relationship with Him. It also served as a history book so that we could learn of our ancestors and what will happen before we will be reunited with Jesus after the tribulations. We all had different points where we completely became aware of these changes. Many saw these things way before I did. There was a whole 2 YEARS they saw these changes fully aware of them before I noticed things were completely wrong so don't be upset if you are just finding this out now. I had to metaphorically be hit over the head quite a few times where I thought things were odd but didn't give it a second thought to it.

Daniel 7:23-28 About Tribulations
"Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon the earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and tread it down, and break it in pieces. And the ten horns out of this kingdom are the ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. And he shall speak great words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints (used to say vex the saints) of the Most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time (some only remember half a time here). But the judgement shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it until the end. And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. Hitherto (huh?) is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart."

Notes: I typed these up before but the details I'm unsure of. Just remember that whatever craziness happens, do not turn away and leave your first love. Stick to what we were taught growing up and always follow our Shepherd Jesus Christ wherever He goes. Do not follow the wolf or allow it to dwell with you. Isaiah 11:6 always said Lion and not wolf will lay down with the lamb. Always remember that.

1. This is about the anti-christ pretending to be God.
2. He will subdue 3 kings (Don't know about this one.)
3. He will make war with the saints while saying very bad things about our Father.
4. He will think to change times and laws (possibly our history and scriptures)
5. He will be allowed to do this for a time and times and half a time.
6. His rule is eventually taken away and given back to the saints.

Jesus returns to save us from this wicked world and then we reign with him for 1000 years before Satan is let loose for a season (Small period of time. May not have said season though). He then goes about deceiving people into going against Jesus and God, where God wipes them out before they even get a chance to do anything. Then comes judgement at the end, before a new Heaven and Earth are made and we all live with our Father, Jesus, and all the other saints around us happily forever.

"He shall think to change times and laws"

The times he is currently changing are everything around us. Examples would be the Statue of Liberty being on Liberty Island instead of Ellis Island like how we always remembered, the ice land mass of the North Pole being completely missing, South America shifting east, the Panama Canal going north and south instead of east and west. The Kennedy car now being a 6 seater instead of a 4 seater. The Black Tom Event where Germans snuck in to take out one of our supply locations which unintentionally damaged the torch of the Statue of Liberty that people haven't been up in since. That doesn't match memories of people who actually have been up in the torch, but like everything else the evidence of them being there has since disappeared. The laws would be the bible changes possibly. All this together makes up the Lying Signs and Wonders.

Matthew 24:4-26 Jesus Speaks about Tribulations
"And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers(e) places. All these are the beginning of sorrows (birth pains). Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax (wane) cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom(I don't think it said gospel before) shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 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: ) (Editor: note the winky face hidden in the last parenthesis statement) Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck(another change in wording) in those days! But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall (if it were possible? Then shall written afterwards?) deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not."

Mark 13:5-27 Jesus Speaks about Tribulation
"And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you: For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers(e) places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows (birth pains). But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. And the gospel must first be published (published wasn't used in scriptures as a word) among all nations. But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit). Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) (again with the winky face) then let them that be in Judea flee to the mountains: And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house: And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment. But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck (different wording change) in those days! And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. For in those days shall be affliction (why isn't tribulation mentioned here), such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days. And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not: For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce (deceive), if it were possible, even the elect. But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven."

Note that Jude 1:14 in versions says He comes with "His saints" or "holy ones". Does not go with above scripture unless "holy ones" somehow means angels.

Luke 21:8-28
"And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions (replaces rumors of war), be not terrified (afraid): for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by (yet. Who says by and by?) . Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers(e) places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights (fearful sights?) and great signs shall there be from heaven. But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake. And it shall turn to you for a testimony (testimony?). Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay(?) nor resist. And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolk, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But there shall not a hair of your head perish. In your patience possess ye your souls. And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them which are in Judea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto. For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."

Luke 17:20-37
"And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold (behold insert again), the kingdom of God is within you. And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it (huh?). And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them. For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day. But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation. And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man (so too shall be the second coming of the Son of God). They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded (planted and builded? Really?) ; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed (It is the anti-christ who is revealed. Jesus doesn't need to be revealed. He will RETURN) . In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff (stuff wasn't in the KJV) in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. Remember Lot's wife. Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed (wasn't two men before); the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding (grain) together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles (was vultures before) be gathered together."

Isaiah 10:3-4
"And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory? Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still."

Final editor note on this: I'm not completely sure where I was going with this article, but posting for future study. This website got messed with while working on this and I was only able to save a little of the work done on it.
