Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Lesson 29, The Beginning of Sorrows
Four Angels of the Euphrates
And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before
God, saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, “Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river
Euphrates.” And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month and
a year, for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:13-15
Remember: it was given that as the Four Angels that held the four corners of the Earth where
stopped from doing so by the one angel who had the Seal of God, with which to seal the 144,000, that it is to
this same symbolism that these the Four Angles of the Euphrates speaks of, and that they are now let loose, and
the full aspect of the Great War will then begin.
I am further convinced that the above is a discussion of the result that occurs because of the war started
by I.S.I.S., in that the verses speak of finally letting loose the Four Angels of the Euphrates River, which is
yet another symbolism of the Four Horsemen and a progression from a conventional war to that of a nuclear
war.
When Christ returns he by himself will destroy all those of Satan that remain, not numbered among the
faithful to God. However, before that, there will be a mighty world war, between the nations of Man.
That there is a reference to the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates, suggest to
me, that the war will begin, as a localized event, somewhere in the Middle East in the area bordering the
Euphrates River, as I.S.I.S. has done, but will evolve progressively into a World War, again as I.S.I.S. has done,
then into a Nuclear War, which may or may not involve I.S.I.S. but also the real world powers, the USA,
Russia, China, Europe, among others.
Four Angels Loosed
Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, “Loose the four angels which are bound in the great
river Euphrates.” Revelation 9:14
Page: 2
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
The Four angels of the Euphrates are loosed, which means that they are set free or given permission
by God, to engage, which will set in motion events that will lead to the nuclear holocaust. I do not see God as
the instigator of the war, but God does have the power to postpone the war and also to let the forces of Man
continue as is their nature when under the influence of Satan’s lies.
This reference to the “Four Angels of the Euphrates,” I see as being the same as the Four Horsemen of
the Apocalypse, as well as the Four Angels that held the four corners of the Earth. This verse then is once more
giving description of the same symbolism, and that is the cause of the Great War. I see the reason that God
refers to the Euphrates River as a way of showing from what region of the Earth that the war will originate in,
and as history has revealed, Iraq, Syria, and Iran all border the area of the Euphrates River.
Four Aspects of the Great War
In the above three examples, as given in visions by Jesus to the apostle John, the Four horsemen, the
Four Angels that hold the four corners of the Earth, and the Four Angels of the Euphrates, which are finally let
loose to bring war to the Earth, amounts to the same thing.
The Four Horsemen are symbolisms of the four aspects of the Great War.
The White Horse represents the cause and impetus of the Great War.
The Red Horse represents the death and destruction of the War itself.
The Black Horse represents the destruction of the world economies.
The Pale Horse represents the after math of the war, and the death brought about by famine,
pestilence and from the hungry animals.
The Four Angels that hold the four corners of the Earth represent these same aspects
of the war, only shown in a different way.
In using this second symbolism, Jesus is showing us that the Great War, though not
initiated by God, is subject to the will of God in that God causes the war to be postponed until
after the Saints of God are sealed, as is everything in this universe.
Page: 3
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
The Four Angels of the Euphrates, are also another symbolism of these same
aspects of the Great War, however in this symbolism, Jesus adds additional information which
gives us a location on the Earth where this Great War will erupt out of so as to assists us in
determining the identity of the King that rides the White Horse.
The Euphrates River is located in the area of the world known as the Middle East,
specifically it is associated with the ancient Babylonian Empire, which is modern day nation of
Iraq and Syria, but can also be associated with the ancient nation of Persia, which is modern day
Iran.
With this information we now know that those that are let lose by the Four Angels of the
Euphrates and come out of the bottomless pit, which are the lies and deceptions of Satan’s False
Gospel, and have as their king, Apollyon, will rise up from those people in the Middle East
either in Iran, Iraq or Syria.
These three different symbolisms of the four aspects of the Great War reveal a logical
pattern of the Great Wars expansion from a localized conflict into a World War. This also gives
evidence in history that it is in fact I.S.I.S. that is the root cause of the Great War, and it
eventually going nuclear.
Immediate Cause of the Great War
To date, the loosely knit religious extremists, of that area of the world have combined
into a mostly united military force that is currently being referred to as I.S.I.S. or I.S.I.L. I see
these loosely knit groups as those that are let loose from the Euphrates, and the unification of
those groups into I.S.I.S. as being the King or Apollyon. It is by their military advances that the
world will be drawn into war, which will result in the Great War and the nuclear holocaust
prophesized in these verses.
Page: 4
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Historical Cause of the Great War
Though I.S.I.S. is that which starts the war by setting out to conquer all other people around them, there
is a historical cause for I.S.I.S. becoming radicalized in the first place.
The hatred and mistrust being experienced by those who make up I.S.I.S. first originates in history when
the Pope of the Church of Rome, Urban II in 1095 A.D., issued a request of the kings of Europe to take armies
to the Holy Land in an effort to conquer the lands of Judea and freeing the city of Jerusalem from the Muslim
heathen that controlled it. This resulted in the First Crusade, and continued until 1487 A.D., all at the request
and sanctioned by the Popes of the Roman Catholic Church.
Until this time, the Muslim people of the area and those of Christian and Jews tended to live together in
harmony, but with the Pope, who is the leader of the anti-Christ religion issuing a declaration of war upon the
Muslims, Satan initiated the beginning of hatred and mistrust that still exists today.
With this Holy War, the Christians saw the Muslims as heathen and barbarians, and in turn the Muslims
saw the Christians as infidels and barbarians. This happened a long time ago, yet the hatred and suspicions
fostered ingrained disrespect of both sides for the other.
Whenever Satan can cause men to hate each other, then he will cause them to go to war. What Satan has
done through his power over the Church of Rome is to instill racism into the world. The Europeans saw the
Muslims and the Jews as inferiors, which is to say that the Europeans had no respect for those of the Middle
Eastern peoples. This is in direct opposition to what Jesus taught, “Love others as you would have them love
you,” which is yet another identifier that the Church of Rome is the anti-Christ. In this way the Church of
Rome initiated and promoted racial divisions between peoples of different skin color and customs and
languages.
Since that initial Holy War the nations of the Christian Europeans have dominated the Muslim world,
including the conquering and turning those people and their lands into colonies of Europe, this has built up an
even stronger and longer lasting hatred that is revealing itself in events of today.
The purpose of I.S.I.S. is to conquer the entire world and thereby impose their version and interpretation
of the Koran on all the peoples of the world. In this I.S.I.S. intends on eradicating all aspects of Christianity and
other religions from the face of the Earth.
Page: 5
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Remember: the Church of Rome and those religions that call themselves Christian are defined by
God as being the anti-Christ. Those that make up the ranks of I.S.I.S. and all other radical Islamic peoples
make up that which Jesus has defined as those from the Bottomless Pit. Both of these forces are aspects of the
power of Satan to influence and even control the minds of Man.
By using these two opposing forces, both controlled by Satan, Satan will attempt to accomplish his
purpose which is to destroy Man and all the life that is on this Earth.
Remember: Satan hates God, and all that God has accomplished and created.
Satan wants to take
all of it away from God; such is the intensity of Satan’s hatred of the Creator of the Universe that he will
attempt to bring about the death of the 7 Billion plus people that are on the Earth today.
One Day, a Month and a Year
And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year,
for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:15
This verse is a time prophecy, one hour, one day, one month and one year. The Four Angels spoken
of here are those that are kept in the Euphrates River, which as you may recall have the same symbolism and
therefore are one and the same as the Four Horsemen and those that stand at the Four Corners of the Earth.
My initial interpretation of the above verse is that this time prophecy is giving a date and time when the
nuclear aspect of the Great War will begin. I therefore see this verse as giving us warning as to when the start
of the nuclear aspect of the Great War will begin.
Four Phases of the Great War
I see the Great War as having four phases;
First: the conventional or non-nuclear aspect of the war, initiated by I.S.I.S. which then pulls the other
nations of the world into the conventional aspect of the war,
Second: the nuclear aspect of the war, brought about by the world powers being set against each other
that leads to the use of nuclear weapons,
Third: the aftermath of the nuclear holocaust, and the continuation of the conventional aspect of the
war, this leads up to the battle of Armageddon, which I see as taking place after the nuclear holocaust.
Page: 6
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Forth: the Great Tribulation, and all the pain and suffering brought about by a devastated world, and the
sickness and pestilence that this will bring about.
Calculating the Time Prophecy
Because today, we have 365 days in a year and the months have a different number of days in them, we
need to determine the starting date by first calculating the number of days according to how the calendar was
used during the time of Jesus and the Apostle John.
God tells us that these Four Angels of the Euphrates River were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a
month and a year, which calculates out to 391 days plus one hour. Even though the purpose of this verse is to
show us that the Four Angels of the Euphrates are finally let loose, it will lead to the Great War and the nuclear
aspect of the Great War, but I am uncertain as to whether this is a prophecy of when the Great War begins, or
when the nuclear aspect of the war begins or some other aspect of the war I as yet am uncertain about.
Regardless of what this verse is giving prediction of, the question has to be asked then, from what date
does this time prophecy begin?
How Time Prophecies Work
Whenever God uses a time reference in prophecy, it is for a reason, and it has meaning. I am not certain
exactly when this time period refers to, so let’s break it down to see if we can figure it out together. As a way
of assisting in giving understanding of how God uses time prophecies, I show you the following that gives
calculation as to the First Advent of the Messiah.
Jesus Ministry Begins
Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to
make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to
seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Know therefore and understand, that from the
going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be
seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous
times. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the
prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and
unto the end of the war desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:
Page: 7
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of
abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon
the desolate. Daniel 9:24-27
In the Book of Daniel, as given above, God gave us a time prophecy whereby we are able to calculate
the year that the Messiah would begin his ministry among other things.
This entire prophecy is explained in the Lessons, and through this explanation, I revealed that the
Messiah began his ministry in the Year 27 A.D., when Jesus is baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan River.
This is made possible because God provided a starting date, from the going forth of the commandment to
restore and to build Jerusalem.
With the time prophecy, One Hour, One Day, One Month, and a Year, God has as of yet not given a
starting date, or has he.
Determining the Great War
And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year,
for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:15
It is from all that is given in the Book of Revelation that tells me, there will be a time of war and strife
that leads up to the use of nuclear weapons. In the above verse, Jesus gives us another Time Prophecy, whereby
we might be able to calculate when the conventional war begun by I.S.I.S. will result in the Great War going
nuclear, at least that is my interpretation of what God-Jesus is telling us, although I must admit, with what
information that is thus far given, this time prophecy may be giving warning of something else. I interpret this
time prophecy as foretelling the start of the nuclear aspect of the Great War, because the verses tell us that those
set loose will slay the third part of men, which is my understanding of another reference to the use of nuclear
bombs.
I am convinced that it won’t be until the war goes nuclear, before it is considered by God to be the actual
Great War. The reason for this is because Man has fought many wars over the centuries, and the war that will at
first be started by Apollyon will be no different from them, it won’t be until nuclear weapons, (The Great
Sword), are used that it becomes the Great War.
Page: 8
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Starting Date?
In order to determine this Time Prophecy that Jesus gives, you need to know the starting date. The
amount of time being spoken of is simple when you understand that one year as observed in the time of the
Apostle John was 360 days, not 365 as we currently observe a year. Each month consisted of 30 days, each
month being equal to the other. This was because the ancients assumed that the Earth rotation around the Sun
was circular, and there are 360 degrees in a circle. If you calculate this out you get 30 days divided into 360
days in a year, which gives you 12 months.
Breaking down the Prophecy
And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year,
for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:15
The above time prophecy can be broken down as follows:
[One hour] [One day] [One month] [One year].
This then calculates out as follows:
[1 hour]
Plus [24 hours in a day]
Plus [720 hours in a 30day month]
Plus [8640 hours in a 360 day year]
This then gives us a total of 9,385 hours as given in the prophecy.
If you take 9,385 hours and divide it by 24 hours in a day you get 391 days. If you know the starting
date when all this begins, then you can calculate when this prophecy will be fulfilled.
Remember: God wants that you take the time and effort to study and learn the Word of God, so that
you will have knowledge in facts and not accept what others tell you out of Blind Faith and for that reason, it is
required of each of us to attempt to find God’s meaning for ourselves.
Now that we know that this time prophecy calculates out to 391 days, we next need to determine the
starting date that the 391 days begins.
Page: 9
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
The Abomination of Desolation
When you therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in
the holy place, (who so readeth, let him understand :)Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take anything out of his house: Neither let him which is in
the field return back to take his clothes. Matthew 24:15-18
In the pages of the Lessons located on this Web Page, I have given in-depth discussion of whom and
what the anti-Christ is. If you have not already read the Lessons, then you may not understand or accept that
the anti-Christ started out as the Church of Rome, but then evolved into a worldwide religion, which includes
most of the Protestant religions as well as the ten nations of Europe that established themselves as kingdoms
after the fall of the City of Rome in 476 A.D., due to the disintegration of the Imperial Roman government that
had ruled Europe and the lands surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, for 644 years.
Stands in the Holy Place
We are in the attempt of determining the starting date of when the war, which currently envelopes the
whole world, goes from being a conventional war to that of being a nuclear war. In this effort it is logical that
we look at the prophecies as they are given by Jesus and determine what it is that they are showing us.
This prophecy, given by Jesus to the Apostle John in a vision, is telling us that this personage spoken of
as the Abomination of Desolation will stand in the holy place. Once he does we will have a definitive point in
history from which we can then calculate the time prophecy of “One Hour, One Day, One Month and One
Year, to determine the date on which the nuclear aspect of The Great War begins, or at least that is one possible
starting date.
We therefore need to ask two questions:
1: Who is the Abomination of Desolation?
2: What and where is the Holy Place that is being spoken of?
Page: 10
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Transgression of Desolation
Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, “How long
shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the
sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? Daniel 8:13
The above prophecy from the Book of Matthew refers us to the Book of Daniel, and the verse in that
book that speaks of the transgression of desolation is found in the above verse from the Book of Daniel.
Knowing who the Abomination of Desolation is therefore becomes necessary so as to know when the
Abomination of Desolation stands in the holy place.
In this above verse, the question is being asked, “How long will Satan’s power last to cause men to
transgress against God, thereby rendering them desolate?
The answer to this question is not important to our current discussion, but I include this verse so you will
understand that the Abomination of Desolation is the power of Satan to deceive Man, and the power being
spoken of in the verses preceding this one from the Book of Daniel, is the anti-Christ power, therefore, the
Abomination of Desolation is the anti-Christ.
Who are the Desolate
Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do
them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers giveth you. Ye shall
not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish aught from it, that ye may keep the
Commandments of the Lord your God which I command you. Deuteronomy 4:1-2
Remember: If you do not give worship to God exactly as God commands, then you are desolate, in
that you have no hope of being given entry into Heave or receiving Eternal Life. The above two verses gives
support for this in Gods own words.
Neither Add or Subtract from
The words, “Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish aught
from it,” makes it very clear that God commands that we give worship to him, “Exactly” as he has
Page: 11
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
commanded. If you take the Word of God and add something to it or remove something from it, then it is no
longer the Word of God, but Satan’s False Gospel.
When you believe and obey the Word of God, exactly as spoken by God, then you are righteous before
God. But when you do not accept that the Word of God as being the truth and anything spoken or written that
contradicts that which God has spoken is a lie, then you are deceived by Satan and will fall short of Eternal Life
and in this you are desolate.
The Date
You may recall: from the Lessons that the anti-Christ lost its power to make war on the Saints of
God in 1798 A.D. when Napoleon had the Pope arrested and placed under guard in a castle in France. Even
though the anti-Christ in the form of the Church of Rome lost its ability to persecute the Saints of God, it did
not die. Though the wound war great, yet it has healed, and the anti-Christ is still involved in preaching lies to
the entire world today through the Church of Rome as well as those daughters of the Harlot that separated from
the mother church during the Protestant Reformation.
Now that we have determined that the Abomination of Desolation is the anti-Christ, which is led by the
Pope of the Church of Rome, and that the Holy Place is the city of Jerusalem as its borders existed during the
time of Jesus, we can now determine on what date the Pope goes and stands on the Holy Place.
On May 30th 2014 the Pope Francis of the Church of Rome stood on the land next to the remnant of the
Temple Wall, thereby standing on the Holy Place. I suggest that it is from this date that the 391 day prophecy is
calculated.
The First Salvos of War
Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come
down to take anything out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
Matthew 24:16-18
I see this date, May 30th 2014, the day that the Pope stands on Holy Ground as a strong possibility of
being the starting date of the 391 day time prophecy, except for the fact that I am also convinced that the
warning given to Judaea in the above verses has to come to pass also, else it would not be the date being spoken
of in these verses. They both have to occur for the event to be the one prophesied in the 391 day prophecy.
Page: 12
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Military Attack on Judaea
In June of 2014, approximately five weeks after the Pope stood in the Holy Place, a missile assault on
Israel from the Radical Islamists in the Gaza Strip occurred. I am of the opinion that it is this missile attack that
constitutes the beginning of the conventional aspect of the Great War, but not the beginning of the nuclear
aspect of the Great War.
Determining the Date
And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year,
for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:15
With the prophecy concerning the Abomination of Desolation having passed as predicted, we can now
determine on what date the prophecy of an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year will begin and therefore
when the 391 days will end.
From the starting date of May 30th 2014 you add 391 days and you get, June 25th 2015.
I look forward to June 25th 2015 for the prophecy, prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month and a
year, to be fulfilled, which I am convinced is when those from the bottomless pit, because of their campaign of
conquest, will pull the rest of the nations of the world into the war making it a true World War.
Knowing this date as calculating out to June 25th 2015, I ask the question, “Does it mean that the
beginning date of this prophecy would give us the date that the first nuclear bombs are used in the war, or does
it point to some other aspect of the Great War?”
My Understanding as of June 2014
The following is the understanding, given to me by God, which reveals the meaning of the above
prophecy from the Book of Matthew and the warning given to the land of Judea.
In the last two weeks of May or in the Month of June of 2014, someplace in the lands of
Judea, Israel, the Nation of Israel will be hit with a military strike. A terrorist attack to be sure,
but with a loss of life and property greater than all others put together before this one. The
attack will be unseen and unexpected by the Israeli military for the vehicle to carry the weapon
will not be seen as a threat until it is too late.
Page: 13
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
When God gave me this understanding, I was mistaken as to the veracity and strength of the attack
against Israel; however, I was not incorrect about when the attack would come. During the first week of June
2014, Israel did in fact come under attack by missiles being fired from within the Palestinian territories. These
missile attacks are the first salvos of the Great War, but not of the nuclear phase of that war.
We began this study to determine when the conventional war begun by I.S.I.S. turns into a nuclear war,
and at the beginning I assumed that the above date of June 25th 2015 would be that date, but when that date
came and went and no nuclear bombs fell, I had to accept that my understanding was incorrect.
The False Prophet
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the Earth: and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake
as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them
which dwell therein to worship the first beast, who’s deadly wound was healed. Revelation 13:11-12
There is another End of Day prophecy that needs to be taken into consideration. It may be that it isn’t
the Leader of the Church of Rome that when he stands on the Holy Place is the starting date for the 391 day
prophecy, but perhaps we need to take a look at the False Prophet, in that it is the False Prophet which assumes
all the power and authority of the anti-Christ, making the False Prophet and not the anti-Christ that is Satan’s
power on the Earth during the End of Days.
Transference of Power
As shown in the above two verses, the False Prophet assumes all the power and authority of the
anti-Christ, therefore, and because the date of June 25th 2015 did not herald in the nuclear aspect of the Great
War, is it possible that it is not the Pope that determines the starting date when he stands in the Holy Place, but
instead, is it the False Prophet or its leader that determines the starting date when the leader of the False Prophet
religion stands in the Holy Place?
The False Prophet
Remember: the power and authority of the anti-Christ is given to the False Prophet as shown in
the above verses.
Page: 14
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
This transference of power from the anti-Christ to the False Prophet has relevance because it takes place
in the time of the End of Days, and before the nuclear aspect of the Great War, and I believe the False Prophet,
is another aspect of what it is that brings about the Great War and the nuclear holocaust.
In the previous lessons, I revealed that the False Prophet is identified as the government of the
United States of America, or that which controls the government, which is the godless
religion of Liberalism, which is based upon Satan’s False Gospel.
The False Prophet preaches immoral behavior, and like the anti-Christ will engage in the persecution of
the Satins of God as well as all who elicit the name of Jesus or any aspect of the Teachings of Jesus. What I am
saying, is that it will not be only those who can be defined as the Saints of God that will be persecuted by the
False Prophet, but Christians as well. Christians will be persecuted, not only because Christians preach God’s
morality, for there are those who call themselves Christian that do not practice God’s Morality, who will also be
persecuted, because they refer to themselves as Christians, who give voice to the name of Jesus Christ, which
the False Prophet and Satan hates. It is for this reason why it is important that we understand all the prophecies
concerning the False Prophet, to fully see when and how the Great War goes from a conventional war to that of
a Nuclear War.
Resignation of Pope Benedict
My first inclination was to assume that the starting time of the 391 day Time Prophecy is when the False
Prophet receives all the power and authority of the anti-Christ, which according to my observations of Current
Events, occurred in February of 2013 when Pope Benedict, of the Roman Catholic Church, resigned. As you
may recall, Pope Benedict and the President of the United States, had differing opinions of the Presidents push
of having condoms being given to employees of Church businesses within the United States and Pope Benedict
argued that it was against the Roman Catholic moral teachings to do so.
In that the Pope is the head of the anti-Christ religion as identified in the Book of Daniel, and the United
State of America is identified as the False Prophet in the Book of Revelation, I see this resignation by the Pope
as the transfer of power and authority to make war on the Saints of God, from the anti-Christ to the False
Prophet, from the Church of Rome to the False Prophet as lead by the government of the United States of
America.
When you do the math however, if you start at the date that Pope Francis becomes the new Pope, or
March 13, 2013, and go forward 391 days from that, you calculate a date to April 15, 2014. As of my writings
Page: 15
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
of these words, it is July 26, 2014, and to my knowledge the war has not begun, this tells me that this starting
date is incorrect.
Determining the Date
And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year,
for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:15
Knowing that the transference of power and authority from the anti-Christ to the False Prophet isn’t the
starting date, we then only need to determine when the leader, (the president of the USA), of the godless
religion of the False Prophet, (Liberalism), goes to and then stands in the Holy Place.
We now know which day that the Pope Francis or the leader of the anti-Christ religion stands in the
Holy Place, which happened on May 30th 2014, we must therefore determine when has the President of the
United States gone to Jerusalem and stood on the Holy Place?
Full Power Achieved
Though I was of the mind that the above time prophecy was a foretelling of when the first nuclear
weapons would be used, and that this would occur on June 25th 2015, that date has come and gone with no
nuclear detonations.
For a few weeks after that date, I assumed that I simply got the beginning date wrong, but I have been
shown by God that this prophecy may not be pointing to the use of nuclear weapons, but to something even
more destructive to the souls of Man.
What the prophecy may have been pointing to was the False Prophet achieving absolute control of all of
the governments of the Western Nations. On June 25th 2015, the Supreme Court of the United States of
America, rendered a decision that made it legal for Gay marriages, which is in direct opposition to the Law of
God, and it also reinvented the definition of the word “State,” as it relates to an unconstitutional law that has
become known as Obama Care, thereby upholding this unconstitutional law as being constitutional.
It is not these decisions that give the False Prophet his absolute power, but the fact that the Judges of the
Supreme Court followed their Liberal Ideology rather than the letter and intent of the words of the Constitution,
which is based upon the Morality of God. I see this as Satan exerting his influence and perhaps control of the
Judges of the Supreme Court.
Page: 16
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
With this, Liberalism, which is a godless religion and another name for the False Prophet, has taken
absolute control of the USA as it had already taken control of the governments of Europe years before. Is it
then that the 391 day time prophecy did not point to the starting use of nuclear weapons, but to the False
Prophet achieving full power to persecute the Saints of God?
False Prophet stands on Holy Ground
Though this is a possibility, I want that we give consideration to yet another possibility of the starting
date of the 391 day time prophecy, because I am still convinced that the 391 day prophecy is foretelling the start
of the nuclear aspect of the Great War and not the False Prophet achieving full power.
Current Events
As I write these words, it is October 14, 2016, and the war is progressing just as the prophecies foretold.
The power of I.S.I.S. is growing and the lands that it controls include most of Iraq and Syria, or those lands that
made up part of the Babylonian Empire in 600 B.C., which was the first of the Four Ancient Empire of Man
spoken of in the Book of Daniel as being one of the Four Beasts that comes out of the sea.
As the power of I.S.I.S. has grown, so too has the power of the second of the Four Ancient Empires,
Persia, known as Iran today, with this growing of these two local combatants, so too has the nations like Russia,
China, and the USA, been brought into the conflict in one degree or another. These nations are all nuclear
nations, and therefore, the possibility of this war turning nuclear is increased as the prophecies predict it will.
Recently: American war ships were fired upon by a group of Islamist supported by Iran, thus
escalating an already tense situation. Russia has declared it will shoot down any American planes that interfere
in Russia’s military actions against those forces in opposition to the government of Syria. All of these actions
are an escalation of the conventional war, which makes it going nuclear more probable every day.
A People Divided
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the
prince of devils. And Jesus knew their thoughts and said unto them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is
brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.” Matthew 12:24-25
Page: 17
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
God gives identifiers of who and what the False Prophet is, and because we know this already as being
the USA, I suggest that the army of Apollyon is set in motion as a result of the actions or inactions of this False
Prophet.
The Four Angels of the Euphrates are the forces or army’s that will stand up against the False Prophet
and it will be this collision of nations that will then cause the nuclear aspect of the Great War which results in
one third of the Earth to be destroyed.
As I have suggested, the forces of the anti-Christ in partnership with False Prophet will go to war against
the forces of those that come out of the Bottomless Pit, and that both forces are differing aspects of Satan and
his lies.
If you ask the question, why would the forces of Satan fight against each other, I have a possible answer;
God is greater than Satan, and just as God used King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire, around 600
B.C. to destroy the evil that the Nation of Israel had become, and then again caused the Evil Roman Empire, in
70 A.D. to destroy and tear down the Temple in Jerusalem, because the Temple Elders failed to embrace Jesus
as the Messiah, God can just as easily make use of the forces of evil represented by Radical Islam to combat the
evil that is the anti-Christ and the False Prophet.
As I have said before, however, I do not believe that God is at the root of this last Great War, but that
Satan wants to destroy the Earth and all life on it. How better to do this than to set two evil foes at war with one
another who have the nuclear weapons capable of ending life on this planet and, because of Satan’s influence,
are willing to commit mass murder by using those weapons.
Since these first missile attacks on Israel, the forces of what has become known as I.S.I.S. or I.S.I.L. has
coalesced into a strong military and economic force in the region, which has slowly taken over much of Iraq and
Syria, and has caused several nations to take actions to halt its advances.
As the prophecies of the Book of Revelation tell us, this progression of war and violence will continue.
Eventually, I.S.I.S. will engage in actions that will force the nations of the world to take decisive actions against
it, which will pull other nations that have an opposing military agenda to take military actions against those first
nations. It is this escalation of military activity that will pull the nuclear powers into the war with one another,
thus fulfilling the Prophecies of the Great War.
Page: 18
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Happening All Around Us
This is happening in the world today. Russia has its own agenda in the Middle East, and has placed its
support around the murderous regime in control of Syria; the United States, wants to topple that regime, and is
therefore putting its support upon those that Russia and Syria are fighting against. This can only result in a full
conflict between the USA and Russia.
Today, I.S.I.S. is out of control and spreading all around the world. This is happening because there is
no leadership in the world to put a stop to its aggression. The historical leader of the nations of the world, at
least in the last 100 plus years, has been the United States of America, which is now under the absolute control
of Liberalism, and as I have shown in previous lessons, Liberalism is Satan’s power on Earth which the Bible
refers to as the False Prophet.
Because Satan wants to destroy all mankind, Satan has, through his influence, prevented the President of
the USA to take lead in any effort against I.S.I.S. Having thus been deceived the President has in fact been
accommodating to both I.S.I.S. and the other great Radical Islamists in the area, Iran.
You should also know, that God is intent on ending Satan’s power over the nations of Man, and for that
reason, God has not given strength in the world’s leaders to combat and bring to an end these advances by
I.S.I.S. By allowing the conflict to grow and expand, God will let Satan think that he is in control, but when the
time is right, God will step in.
This is the last war that Man will fight against himself, and with this war God will wash the Earth with
fire, as God did with water during the time of Noah. In this way God will remove the powers of evil that are the
result of Stan’s False Gospel, the anti-Christ and the False Prophet, as well as the king Apollyon. Therefore, it
is a strong possibility that the war against all that is of God, his morality and his commandments will be placed
into full speed from June 25th 2015 forward, with the nuclear aspect of the war beginning at any time after that
date.
A wolf in sheep’s clothing
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the Earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake
as a dragon. Revelation 13:11
Page: 19
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
In this verse, Jesus is portraying this beast as one that looks like a lamb. This Jesus does so as to cause
us to see that the False Prophet is engaged in deceiving people, just as the anti-Christ is. When you look at a
lamb you do not see something that is dangerous or evil, and this is true about Liberalism as well.
Along with Jesus depicting the False Prophet as a lamb, Jesus includes a qualifier, “and he spake as a
dragon,” so as to show that though Liberalism has the appearance of something that is good, it in fact is evil
because it blasphemes against the Morality of God.
Satan is the Dragon
And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and
ten horns, and seven crown upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast
them to the Earth: and the dragon stood before the woman, which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her
child as soon as it was born. Revelation 12:3-4
The Dragon is a reference to Satan as revealed in the above verses.
Exercises All the Power
And he, (the False Prophet), exerciseth all the power of the first beast, (anti-Christ), before him, and
causeth the Earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Revelation 13:12
The power of the first beast, the anti-Christ, was the power to persecute torture and murder those that
did not worship as it, the anti-Christ, commanded that they must.
Mark of the Beast
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right
hand, or in their foreheads: and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the
beast, or the number of his name. Revelation 13:16-17
In that the anti-Christ and now the False Prophet preach words that are in opposition to the
Commandments of God and the Teachings of Jesus Christ, all but a handful of people today have been pulled
away from God and his morality.
Page: 20
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
No other gods before me
Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3
What is a God?
There is only one actual God, all others through history that were professed to be a god, where false
gods. God is a living, sentient being. God has told us that there is no other God; therefore, if we believe God,
we also must believe that he is the only one that is Omnipresent who is also self-aware and capable of cognizant
thought.
Idols and other Graven Images
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above,
or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Exodus 20:4
Idols are, statues, carvings, paintings or any other man-made thing that is has a
religious or faith based purpose, made of wood, stone, silver or gold, and are therefore,
without life, or self-awareness.
A Graven Image is anything made by the artistry hands of Man, as seen in the mind of men.
In ancient times, statues and figurines were formed by artisans, and sold to the people as gods,
something to be worshiped. These carvings had no life, therefore they had no ability to think, or speak, yet
people knelt before them and gave worship to them.
Today, people by statues of a man professed to be the image of Jesus, and they kneel before it and give
worship to this statue. The image is not that of Jesus, and is Satan’s Lie. At no time did Jesus sit before an
artist and have his portrait or carving done. The image that people think of as being Jesus is an artist rendering,
commissioned by the Church of Rome during the Dark Ages.
The cross that is worn by Christians, is a graven image as defined in the Second Commandment, and as
such is forbidden by God.
Page: 21
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Do not bow down
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
Exodus 20:5
Satan Preaches:
It is correct to kneel down and give worship in front of statues and other graven images, in direct
opposition to God. Those statues and paintings that portray, Jesus, the Mother Mary, or any of the others of
angels or saints, are in direct opposition and disobedience to the Commandments of God.
In the Roman Catholic churches, when you come alongside a pew you must go down on one knee as you
look up at the statue of Jesus, before you are allowed to sit down. This act is in direct opposition to the
Commandments of God.
The Roman Catholic churches also have statues set on pedestals with candles in front of them, whereby
people can kneel before them and light a candle as part of giving prayer to whatever saint the statue is
reprehensive of. This is once again in direct opposition to the Commandments of God.
Those who Hate God
When you are disobedient to the Word of God, by doing what God has said not to do, then you show
your disrespect for the Word of God, and thereby show your hatred of God.
Showing Mercy to those who Love God
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Exodus 20:6
God is merciful to those who love him, but if you reject the Word of God as being Truth, then you show
your hatred of God, and he will have no cause to be merciful to you. In the above verse, God is being very
explicit, to show your love for God, to manifest your love for God, is accomplished by you're keeping his
commandments. The observance of the Seventh Day Sabbath is his Fourth Commandment; therefore you must
keep the Sabbath as God commands you to, else you show your disrespect and hatred of God.
Page: 22
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Take Not the Name of God in Vain
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that
taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7
When you give disrespect to God or his Commandments, then you are taking the name of the Lord in
vain. If you have or pray to statues or other icons, then you are showing disrespect of God, in that he has said
that you are not to do this.
When you go into a Church of Rome, or some but not all of the other churches of the daughters of the
Church of Rome, you will see, paintings, statues and other graphic depictions of saints and of Jesus. These are
an abomination and a sin against God.
The Name of God is more than, Jehovah, Jesus, or any of those others that men call God. The name of
God is everything that God stands for and represents his personal Honor, his Personality, and his Moral
Character, all of which are defined by the Ten Commandments and the Teachings of Jesus Christ.
When you live a life in opposition or disobedience to any of God’s moral imperatives, then you take the
name of God in vain.
Remember the Sabbath Day
God Says:
Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy. Exodus 20:8
Satan preaches:
The churches of the anti-Christ preach that the Sabbath Day is the first day of the week, or Sunday as we
currently call it.
Man must rest on the Seventh Day
God Says:
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work. Exodus 20:9-10
Page: 23
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
In these verses, God is being very clear, because God rested on the Seventh Day, then so too must all
Man rest on the Seventh Day. Despite the clarity of these verses, the entire world is of the belief that Sunday or
the first day is the Lords day of rest. I consider this to be the fault of Satan's greatest lie. Most lies are founded
upon 90% truth and only 10% lie, but with the first day observance as God's day of rest, there is nothing in
scripture spoken by God or by Jesus that gives support to this lie, yet the world believes it to be true even
though it is 100% lie.
To observe the first day of the week as the Sabbath Day is to accept Satan's Lie over the Word of God.
If you are not obedient to the Commandments of God, then you will be given the Mark of the Beast by GodJesus, and having this mark will exclude you from heaven and eternal life.
Many shall be offended
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. Matthew
24:10
If you believe that you know the true Word of God, and someone comes up to you and tells you that
what you believe is in fact Satan's Lies, you will be offended by this person. How dare he tell you that you are
wrong and that you are deceived of Satan? This will cause you to hate this person, who only wants to show you
God's Truth. But you believe you already know God's Truth, so you reject the words of this person, and many
will even go so far as to have this person imprisoned and tortured, and killed.
Persecutions
During this time of worldwide instability, the False Prophet will begin to exert its power to persecute the
Saints of God, but also anyone else who embraces the virtues of God’s Morality. Liberalism preaches immoral
behavior, and is therefore in direct opposition to anyone who embraces any aspect of God’s Morality.
Liberalism preaches that it is not a sin if you have your unborn baby aborted, (murdered), that it is
a right of women that they choose what to do with their own bodies.
God says that thou shalt not kill, which is what you do when you have your baby aborted.
Liberalism preaches that life begins at birth.
Page: 24
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
God tells us that John the Baptist was touched by the Holy Ghost at conception. This means that God
recognizes a human being as of its conception, not at its birth. Just think about it, if the embryo is not alive,
why then does it grow throughout the nine months of its development in the mother’s womb. Only if there is
life can growth occur.
Liberalism preaches that it is Child Abuse if you discipline your own child, and if you do you can
be arrested and your child removed from you because of that abuse.
God tells us that a child that is undisciplined by its parents must be thought of by its parents as
nothing more than a Bastard, not worthy of the time and effort in giving the child discipline. Do you consider
your child to be a Bastard?
Liberalism preaches that it is normal and clean for two people of the same gender to engage in sex,
and therefore has passed laws that make it a crime if you or I object to such relationships. This crime is called
Hate Crimes. If you voice an objection you can face, civil fines and penalties, arrest and imprisonment.
God says that ALL sex is a sin save that between a legally married Husband and Wife, which God
further defines Husband and Wife as a Man and a Woman.
With the full power of the False Prophet having been achieved, these and other persecutions of God’s
Morality will increasingly become crimes that will entail jail time, torture and even death, just as it was in the
Dark Ages under the heavy hand of the Church of Rome’s Trials of Inquisition.
Remember: Satan hates God and will engage in any and all efforts to remove God’s Morality from
the minds of men.
Because the False Prophet has absolute control of the governments of Europe and America, it will begin
a campaign of persecution that may achieve the same level of torture and murders as did the anti-Christ engage
in during the Dark Ages when the Church of Rome held its Trials of Inquisition.
History of Persecution
Since the second that Christ died on the cross, those of the faith of God, and the teachings and testimony
of Jesus Christ, have been persecuted and debased by Satan and those who promote and preach Satan’s Lies.
Page: 25
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
First by the temple elders, then by the Caesars’s of the Roman Empire, and then by Satan’s anti-Christ,
the Church of Rome and lastly by the godless religion of the False Prophet, which is another name for the
godless religion of Liberalism.
Through all the centuries since, the Saints of God prayed that God would intervene, it is only fitting
therefore that those prayers of the Saints of God are used by God to bring about the destruction of the forces of
evil that Man has become.
Nuclear Holocaust
A Great Earthquake
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun
became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood. Revelation 6:12
Whenever there is an earthquake, it is usually accompanied by some kind of volcano activity, if not
nearby the area of the earthquake, then someplace else on the planet. This verse suggests that the volcano will
be such as to pollute the atmosphere to the point that it darkens the sun and moon.
In the previous lesson, we studied those Bible Verses that gave prophecies of events leading up to the
start of the Great War, as well as some of the events that take place just prior to the Nuclear Holocaust that
Jesus gives prophecy of. In this lesson we will be studying those prophecies of the Nuclear Holocaust as well
as those that give insight into the aftermath of the holocaust which leads up to the Second Advent of Christ.
A Nuclear Explosion
I see the above verse as describing a nuclear explosion and not a naturally occurring earthquake. I do
not live in a part of the world where earthquakes are prevalent; therefore I have never experienced one. It is my
understanding however, that an earthquake by itself does not have the resulting effects as outlined in the above
verses, with the sun being blotted out, etc. I therefore suggest a different cause for the earthquake and the
resulting air pollution.
The above verse is a continuation from the previous lesson of Jesus’ explanation and description of what
will be the result of the Great Swords effect on the world. As I have said before, I believe that the Great Sword
is the nuclear bomb and the above verse gives a good description of the effects of a nuclear explosion.
Page: 26
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Consider This: Jesus is telling us of a war, but not just another war as is common in the history of
Man, but a Great War, and an aspect of this Great War will be that there is a new type of weapon, A Great
Sword.
In the above verse, Jesus is giving a graphic description of the result of this Great Sword, in that the
earth will shake, the mountains will tumble, and the sun and moon will be blotted out by all the resulting
materials thrown up into the atmosphere by the explosions, not of only one nuclear bomb, but several.
Nuclear Winter
The Great War will be a war fought with nuclear weapons, and all moral restraints will be removed, due
to Satan’s influence, so that a large number of nuclear explosions will occur all over the face of the Earth at
about the same point in time. These explosions alone will repel tons of material high into the atmosphere, and it
could be this that pollutes the sky to cause the sun and moon to become darkened and have the appearance of
blood red color.
The nuclear explosions could also account for the earthquake. With so many nuclear explosions at the
same approximate time, it will be like a pounding on the crust of the Earth, causing the continental mantels to
move, crack and shake, which will again result in volcanos adding to the woes of the Earth.
Stars Fall from Heaven
And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is
shaken of a mighty wind. Revelation 6:13
This verse suggests that the Earth will experience a shower of meteors, of such magnitude as to be
noteworthy in the Bible. I have never seen a fig tree loose its fruit to a strong wind before, but I have seen other
trees lose their nuts or fruits to a strong wind.
Nuclear Debris
If there are a number of nuclear explosions to hit the Earth at about the same time, thus lifting huge
amounts of debris into the atmosphere, this could be what causes this shower of stars, when that debris falls
back down to the Earth. Unfortunately, a large part of the debris will also be radioactive, which will kill more
animals and men, further out from ground zero, not killed by the explosions themselves.
Page: 27
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
A Multitude of Bombs
When one nation uses a nuclear weapon against its enemy, then all nations that have the bomb will soon
follow suit, due to Satan’s influence on the leaders of the world and the hatred and mistrust that exists in the
world today.
When you have hundreds and even thousands of nuclear bombs all igniting in the atmosphere at about
the same time as each other, the combined force of the explosions will also be multiplied, and the Earth’s crust
will be shaken throughout the world, which will cause the earthquakes and volcanoes to erupt.
I see the description in the above verses to be that of a Nuclear Holocaust which Jesus is foretelling,
which will take place upon the Earth in the time of the End of Days, which we are now living in.
The Heavens Scroll UP
And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were
moved out of their places. Revelation 6:14
The phrase: “the heaven departed as a scroll,” is best understood when you imagine that you are
looking up into a starry night and suddenly the stars rotate around in the sky and all of the constellations are
jumbled up and out of place.
An earthquake and a volcano are bad, but still they are natural occurrences, that we expect. For the
heaven to scroll back is impossible in the natural order of the universe. There are only two ways it could
happen; One is for God to make it happen super naturally, and the other is for some other event to occur that
puts enough pressure on the Earth to cause the Earth to roll over on its axis.
For the heaven to scroll could be the result of the above explanation concerning the nuclear bombs and
the cracking of the earth's crust. Perhaps all of this violence against the earth will cause it to roll over on its
axis. This would result in a scrolling of the heavens. This will also result in the islands and mountains being
move from their places. It is this that I see as what causes the above verse to come to pass, and is all the result
of a nuclear holocaust upon the Earth.
Page: 28
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Hide from the Wrath of God
And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty
men, and every bond man, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
And said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne,
and from the wrath of the Lamb: Revelation 6:15-16
This verse validates what I said earlier concerning those who love the wealth of the Earth and reject the
gifts of God. In case you have any doubt, the Lamb spoken of here is Jesus Christ, so the rich and mighty men
will run in fear of Jesus Christ. That they prefer the indulgences of this earth, to the Commandments of God, is
evident in that they run from Jesus, and not towards him. These two verses are therefore speaking of those of
Man who reject God, his law and his morality.
Great Day of God’s Wrath
For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Revelation 6:17
If you are a sinner, or have simply denied God and Christ all along, then suddenly find out that not only
does God-Jesus exist, but he intends on killing you for your lack of reverence, then it would probably seem
better to be killed by falling rocks than the death in Hells Fire.
Unfortunately for you there are two deaths, the Mortal Death of the body, and the Eternal Death of the
body and soul. Even though those in the above verse allow themselves to be killed by the falling rocks, they
will still be resurrected, and feel the pain of the second death. There will be no avoiding God's wrath.
A Vengeful God
These last three verses give suggestion that those who are being spoken of consider the war and the
succeeding earthquakes and volcanos as having been cause by a vengeful God; I don’t see it that way however.
God has not indicated that he is the cause of the earthquake or any of the other calamities, as I have said before,
“God is seeing that which will occur in the future, and then relays it on to us via his prophets.”
These events are not being caused to happen by God, but that he has seen them as happening in the
future and then proceeds to warn us of them through his prophet the Apostle John. It is because men know that
these warning from God exist, but they have ignored or not believed that they are predictions of things to come,
Page: 29
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
that when they do come, then belief will be manifest and rather than taking responsibility for their own short
comings, they will blame the holocaust on God and not themselves.
Those that seek death from falling rocks, do so, because they still reject God’s authority to punish them,
so rather than standup for God’s punishment, they prefer to die by some other means. Even in death, they will
reject God, which shows just how blinded by Satan’s lies that these people are.
Satan is the Cause
I see the war as being brought about by Satan and his two servants, the anti-Christ teamed up with the
False Prophet, as well as the Ten Kingdoms that established as nations after the fall of the Roman Empire. In
their effort to force their false religion upon the world, the forces of Satan, will cause this holocaust.
Either Man will submit to Satan or Satan will destroy Man off the face of the Earth. I do admit,
however, that God has it in his power to prevent this war and its devastation from happening, but chooses not to
so as to allow the destruction of human civilization, which God never intended that Man should achieve, but
came about because of Satan’s lies. By allowing the destruction of human civilization God removes Satan’s
hold and power over Man.
Silence in Heaven
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. Revelation 8:1-2
The verses from the Book of Revelation Chapter 6 from above, gave warning concerning the beginning
of the Nuclear Holocaust and a graphic explanation of some of the things that will take place as the result of the
Nuclear Explosions, the above three verses speak to us of what occurs, not on the Earth, but in Heaven just prior
to the setting off of the nuclear bombs around the world.
Smoke of the incense
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him
much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the
throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of
the angel’s hand. Revelation 8:3-4
Page: 30
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
There is “Silence in Heaven,” because those in Heaven are aware of God’s extreme anger, that his
beautiful Earth is so destroyed by the weapons of Man. Those in Heaven know that God will need to vent his
anger upon Man and Satan for having so destroyed the Earth and so much life on it.
A “Censer” is a bowl or cup in which incense sticks are burnt. In these verses, Jesus is
saying that the prayers of the saints are substantive, just as incense sticks are substantive, or solid, not just
words without form or substance.
The prayers of all saints: This tells me, I need to pray more often, if God makes use of our prayers in
such an important and holy way.
God’s Wrath Poured Out
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there
were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. Revelation 8:5
All of the above verses are a description of the holocaust caused by the nuclear bombs; these last two
verses suggest to me that the holocaust could have been stopped by God, but in the end, God has lost his
patience with those who reject his word and law, so God allows that the holocaust will occur, so as to exact his
wrath upon those that live on the Earth but refuse to give true and correct worship of God.
Nuclear Bombs fall from the heavens
The prayers of the saints have floated out of the censer and then the empty sensor is filled with fire from
the alter in front of God, and the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, which is then, cast it
into the earth, being used to rain havoc on the Earth.
I see this fire from the altar as being another description of the Nuclear Bombs and their explosions.
And there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake: I don’t see these as
being from God, but from Man and his powerful weapons of destruction, however, God does allow this all to
happen, even though it is in God’s power to stop it.
The voices that are heard are Satan’s False Gospel being preached to Man through the Churches of the
Harlot, and the daughters of the Harlot, but more recently those false and immoral preaching’s spoken by the
False Prophet through his godless religion of Liberalism.
Page: 31
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
The thunderings, and lightnings are the weapons of war and the devastation that they unleash on the
face of the Earth.
The earthquake is caused by the rumble and strain that the explosions of those powerful weapons exert
against the crust of the Earth. I see this earthquake as being the same one as spoken of previously in Chapter 6
of the Book of Revelation, in other words, this is a retelling of the same events.
Remember: in the previous Lesson, the four angels that hold the four corners of the Earth were held
back so that the 144,000 Saints of God could be sealed. Now that this is complete, the Four Horsemen of the
Apocalypse are let loose allowing the nuclear aspect of the Great War to begin; these above verses give
description of this.
All of the above verses, in this lesson, is a description of the holocaust caused by the nuclear bombs;
these last two verses suggest to me that the holocaust could have been stopped by God, but in the end, God has
lost his patience with those who reject his word and law, so God allows that the holocaust will occur, so as to
remove evil from the face of the Earth with the fire created by the weapons of Man.
Because of the multitude of nuclear explosions in the atmosphere not only the Earth's Crust will be
shaken but so too will the atmosphere itself, in the form of an immediate change in the weather patterns, which
will result in climate change throughout the world as haven't been seen since the time of Noah and the melting
of the Ice Age, with very powerful hurricanes and tornados all over the face of the Earth.
Hail and Fire mingled with blood
And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. The first angel
sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third
part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. Revelation 8:6-7
The above two verses reveal the end results of the nuclear bombs and the resulting fallout and its dire
consequences on the Earth and all life upon it.
The Seven Seals described above and in the previous lesson, give description of events that take place
leading up to and during the first months of the Great War, what you could call the pre-nuclear beginning of the
Great War.
Page: 32
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
The following Seven Trumpets will give description of those events that take place on the Earth during
the Nuclear Holocaust, and reveal the result of the severity of destruction that the nuclear weapons will inflict
upon the earth, as well as God’s venting his wrath upon those who are in disobedience to his law and word.
Nuclear Weapons are engaged
The First Horse of the Apocalypse, the White Horse, is the sign of the beginning of the non-nuclear
aspect of the Great War. The Second Horse of the Apocalypse, the Red Horse, brings about the war, but not its
nuclear aspect. The Second Horse brings about a conventional war that grows and grows until it causes both the
Economic Collapse, as shown by the Third or Black Horse, and the nuclear aspect of the War, which is the
aspect of the Pale Horse.
Now that God has marked the 144,000 Children of Israel, the four angels that have hold of the four
corners of the Earth, who also are representative of the Four Horsemen, are allowed to shack the earth, the
Great War and the Tribulation begins in earnest and with this the nuclear aspect of the Great War can occur at
any time.
Hail, Fire and Blood
And there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth. If you can
visualize what it will be like. Several nuclear explosions will occur in a very short time to one another all over
the Earth, when the explosions takes place it will cause animals and Man to be blown apart into pieces of meat,
bone and blood. These will be propelled up into the atmosphere that then will fall back down to the earth; it is
this that is being described in the above words.
Think of these two verses in the light of a nuclear explosion over a populated area. You have a mighty
blast that throws large amounts of soil up into the atmosphere, but the bodies of any people and animals would
explode into fragments and pieces from the power of the blast as well. These too would be shot up into the
atmosphere, and what goes up must come down.
Third Part of the Trees
And the third part of trees was burnt up. What is known as ground zero, of a nuclear explosion, would
mostly be vaporized, but the further you go out from ground zero, the less there would be of vaporization and
the more there would be of things being shattered into pieces by the powerful concussions of the exploding
Page: 33
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
bombs. Any other combustibles such as tress and wooden houses would ignite into flames, so that when this
debris comes falling back down to the earth, it will catch fire to anything else in a radius around the blast area.
This is known as the Fire Wall that emanates out all around the perimeter of the blast area. This will result in
forest fires and grass fires for many miles out, all around ground zero. When you multiply that by several
hundred or thousands of nuclear blasts you will get a global catastrophe.
It isn’t just the trees that will be burnt up but the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass
was burnt up. In that 1/3rd of the trees on the Earth will be burnt up and all the grass reveals the extent of the
devastation.
One Third of the Earth
I think you will agree that this is a logical result of nuclear explosions and the resulting fallout. I am
convinced that the words, “all the grass,” refers to the grass within the 1/3 of the Earth were the nuclear
explosions are set off, and not of the entire earth, though I may be wrong about this.
I should like not to be witness to this. I would rather already to be dead before God rains out his wrath
on the sins of Satan and those men who accepted the lies of Satan. Though I might prefer this, I am certain that
as a servant of God, as I believe I am one of the 144,000, it will be my responsibility to live through the Great
Tribulation, to be witness to God’s wrath, and preach Gods True Word to those who have yet to accept it during
those dark days. I love the beauty of this world, and I will therefore find watching it being destroyed by Man
due to Satan’s influence on him, extremely heart wrenching. This will be an emotionally heart breaking time
indeed.
Mountain burning with fire
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea:
and the third part of the sea become blood; Revelation 8:8
That a great mountain burning with fire is cast into the sea appears to be a reference to a volcanic
eruption. I can also see this as a result of so many nuclear explosions happening at about the same place and
time, where even the crust of the Earth groans in protest to Man’s destruction. I see this as a Nuclear War and
the powerful explosions as being the catalyst that causes these volcanic eruptions.
Page: 34
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
O Destroying Mountain
Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the Lord, which destroyest all the earth: and I
will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
Jeremiah 51:25
My Bible gives this verse as a reference to Rev 8:8. It is confusing to me however. In reading verse 8, I
assumed a literal mountain was cast down and thrown into the sea, but if this verse Jeremiah 51:25, is a valid
reference, then it suggests the mountain to be symbolic and not a literal mountain. This verse in Jeremiah is a
reference to the anti-Christ, and Satan’s false church. It is Satan’s False Church that God is referring to as a
destroying mountain, which he God in turn will destroy. This assertion that Jeremiah is speaking of the antiChrist and Satan and not an actual mountain is given support in the following verse.
Christ is a mountain
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became
like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for
them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.. Daniel 2:35
If you think about it, Satan’s False Gospel and its several religions are worldwide, and as Christ is
depicted as becoming a mountain that will cover the earth in the Book of Daniel; then the above verse from
Jeremiah might be of the same type of symbolism. I further suggest that both verses concerning the destroying
mountain are valid, and that the nuclear explosions will in fact causes volcano’s to erupt, and that God will
bring to an end Satan’s False Churches because of the destruction brought about by nuclear war.
Satan’s false religions, (the Mountain), which now covers the entire world will be replaced by the true
Church of Christ. Therefore it is Satan’s false religion that is this mountain spoken of by Jeremiah and God will
make it a burnt mountain, which will tumble down and be no more.
Having given this thought and prayer, I see this interpretation as the most probable of Jeremiah 51:25,
but the wording of Revelation 8:8 do not suggest this symbolic meaning however. I see Rev 8:8 as being a
literal mountain and do to the severity of the weapons of war; the earth will protest in the form of earthquakes
and volcanos and as many volcanos are mountains, if they erupt, then some of the mountains will fall into the
sea. I do see the possibility that both meanings are correct however, which is why God gives two separate
descriptions of these events, one literal and the other spiritual.
Page: 35
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Sea Becomes Blood
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea:
and the third part of the sea become blood; Revelation 8:8
The third part of the sea became blood, this I see as an additional bit of information relating to the fact
that 1/3rd of the Earth would be burnt. Together this tells me that a full 1/3rd of the Earth will feel the direct
impact of the nuclear weapons. This will effectively render 1/3rd of the Earth uninhabitable for centuries.
In this reference, the word blood is symbolic of undrinkable, or polluted.
You need to understand the targets that these nuclear bombs would be directed at are the cities of the
opposing nations. Most of the largest cities of any nation are located along the shores of the oceans or rivers or
lakes. When the cities are destroyed and the debris from them are cast up into the atmosphere, then fall back
down much of this debris will fall into these waters polluting them and rendering the water undrinkable.
A third part of the Sea dies
And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, dies; and the third part of the
ships were destroyed. Revelation 8:9
This verse goes along with that above, if the sea becomes polluted, then those creatures that live in the
sea will die, not just from the pollution from the debris cast into the sea, but that of the radiation caused by the
nuclear explosions.
This verse gives reference to the ships of the sea being destroyed, tells me with certainty that these
verses are talking about a nuclear war. These verses are talking about the Great War. It is only logical that if
there is a Great War that many ships of the warring nations will be destroyed.
I do not see these verses as talking about a war of God against Satan’s false religion, but a war of Man
and nations of Man that war against each other, in other words, this is not a war of good versus evil, but yet
another war of Man against Man, except this time it will be fought with nuclear weapons.
Take note of the signs and images that these verses generate in your mind, these images are the
signs that are what to look for so that you will know this is the Great War that leads to the Great Tribulation,
and not just another of the long line of wars fought by Man over the centuries. God-Jesus is giving warning
Page: 36
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
ahead of time, (2,000 years in advance); so that Man will know that it is God who is giving these warnings, for
who but God-Jesus could possibly see so far into the future.
When you take the time to think about all of these warnings give two thousand years ago, happening all
around us today, then there can only be one conclusion, God is alive, and watching over you. It is not enough
that you realize this however, you must take steps to come into compliance and obedience to the
Commandments of God, else you will know Eternal Death.
Remember Too: these are nuclear explosions and as such much of the debris will be made
radioactive in those explosions, therefore, when it falls back to the Earth or the Seas, any life that comes into
contact or even near to this radioactive debris will develop radiation sickness and die. God has told us that he
will protect those of the 144,000 from the plagues brought about by the nuclear holocaust, but that doesn’t mean
he will protect them from the holocaust itself.
If you accept that these things being foretold, will and must happen, and accept that so many of these
prophecies have already come to past, then you not only need to make yourself right with God, you need to
prepare yourself and your family for the possibility of having to live through the holocaust and the Great
Tribulation that it will bring about.
Nuclear Aftermath
And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it
fell upon the third part of the river, and upon the fountains of water; And the name of the star is called
Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because
they were made bitter. Revelation 8:10-11
A Star named Wormwood
Whereas, the previous verses only suggested the impact of a meteor or the debris from a volcano
eruption, this verse tells us exactly what will happen. What this verse is saying, is that the falling stars are the
nuclear bombs being dropped, the radioactive debris from those explosions will pollute the fresh water of one
third of the Earth, which is a visualization of the same area of the Earth, where the grass will burn. If you are
not killed outright by the explosions of the nuclear weapons, but manage to survive, it does not mean you have
Page: 37
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
been saved. Without fresh water most animals and men will die just the same, it will be a prolonged and painful
death however.
Think of this in relation to not one, but several nuclear bombs going off at about the same time as each
other, but not localized to just one place but all around the Earth. Such a large amount of debris will be thrown
into the atmosphere, which will come back down in fiery fallout. In this you might imagine a great star falling
from heaven.
Understanding Wormwood
Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day
from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that
beareth gall and wormwood; Deuteronomy 20:18
The word “Lest” means: In Case, in order to prevent something happening, especially
something causing fear.
The word “Wormwood” is used in the Old Testament books to indicate a polluted or poisonous
water or food.
The phrase, “Whose heart turneth away this day from the Lord our God,” is a reference to those who
do not keep the Commandments of God nor have the Testimony of Jesus. If you cannot be defined as a Saint of
God, then you are not of God. There is only Good and Evil, either you are with God or you are scattered
abroad.
To go and serve the gods of these nations: If you do not serve God then you serve false gods, if you do
not believe the word of God as the truth, and therefore realize that all other words are false, then you serve false
gods.
Lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood: The word “Root” as used in
these words refers to Core Faith and as used it refers to those whose core faith is in that of Satan’s False
Gospel, and that they therefore bear gall and wormwood, which is to say that they are desolate, because they
fail to accept the Gospel of God, in short they are those who have the Mark of the Beast.
God uses the word “Wormwood” several times in the Bible and each time it is to reveal his wrath
against those who do not keep his Commandments, but who look instead to false gospel as truth and the word of
God as the lie. The following are examples of the uses of the word Wormwood.
Page: 38
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Remember Too: this debris is not just on fire but it is also hot with radiation, and this will quickly
make the waters of the Earth polluted to the point to drink the water will result in a slow death.
Those who turn away from God
To rephrase Deuteronomy 20:18, “In case anyone should turn away from the true worship of
God, and go serve false gods and their false gospels. God will remind us all of his power and
his wrath by allowing this event to happen. In doing so, God looks to encourage us to repent,
and turn our worship to him as he commands.”
With the fallout of the nuclear explosions, much of the waters of the Earth will become “Wormwood.”
So again, there is nothing supernatural about this prophecy, but a prediction of things to come.
A Bitter Medicine
Wormwood relates to the taking of bitter medicine, therefore what I see God as saying is that Man,
because he has turned away from the True worship of God, has brought this war and its aftermath upon himself.
The aftermath of the Great War, is the Great Tribulation, and it is this bitter medicine that Man has served to
himself.
Repent all ye who wear the Mark of the Beast
And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying,
“I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst:”
Deuteronomy 20:19
This is another of the verses in the Bible where the word “Wormwood” is used.
And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse. Those to whom God gives the Mark of
the Beast will hear this curse, yet will not heed the Word of God.
An Example: I see those religions and churches that call themselves Christian, but observe the first
day of the week, (Sunday), as being the Sabbath, as being part of those to whom this curse is directed.
That he bless himself in his heart. Rather than turning to God because of the proof of God’s prophecy,
people will say,
Page: 39
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
“I will give worship as I have been taught since childhood; I will put my faith in the
worship as I have always given worship. I have been told that I only need to profess Jesus to be
my savior and I will be saved, and in this I am confident in my salvation.”
In this way, because of the deceptions and lies of Satan, people are deceived into thinking that they are
giving true and correct worship of God, but to be deceived, is to not know that you are deceived, for if you
know or if you realize that you are being deceived, then you stop being deceived, and the light of truth shines
through.
“I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst.”
These people will think that they are saved, and in this thought will have peace of mind, but they will be
deceived, and their belief is only imaginary, for they have not taken the time and effort to know God’s True
Word themselves, but have accepted what they have been told of others. They accept false gospel preached by
devils dressed in the attire of clergy, spewing lies and blasphemes in the ears of the foolish.
Know this: to blaspheme God does not only mean to voice curses or obscenities against God, but if
you are afflicted by these plagues and enter into one of the False Churches and give prayer as taught by Satan’s
False Gospel, then you blaspheme God as well.
Know this: Those who have the Mark of God, who are the Saints of God, will be removed from the
full effects of the wrath of God. We will have to be witness to these afflictions that others will have to endure,
but we ourselves will be spared the torment.
Those Tormented
The plagues spoken of in these verses are a sign that those who think that they give true worship to God
should take note of. If you are tormented by these plagues, then you do not give true and correct worship to
God, and you need to realize this, and begin the process of reconciliation with God. The first thing you can do
to prove to God that you are sincere is to end your observance of the Sunday Sabbath and take to observing
God’s Holy Day, the Seventh Day, as the Sabbath of the Lord, but you must also remove yourself from sin by
learning and then keeping the Ten Commandments and the Teachings of Jesus Christ.
This is a sign that those who think that they give true worship to God should take note of. If you are
tormented by these plagues, then you do not give true and correct worship to God, and you need to realize this,
and begin the process of reconciliation with God. The first thing you can do to prove to God that you are
Page: 40
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
sincere is to end your observance of the Sunday Sabbath and take to observing God's Holy Day, the Seventh
Day, as the Sabbath of the Lord.
Eternal Death Awaits You
The Lord will not spare him, but then the anger of the Lord and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and
all the cures that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the Lord shall blot out his name from under
heaven. Deuteronomy 29:20
Even though those who are deceived give worship, they worship in error because of Satan’s lies and
deceptions, The Lord will not spare him, because God’s True Word can be found by those who seek for it.
Ignorance no Defense
You know the phrase, “Ignorance is no defense in the law,” well this is true in God’s Law as well as
the law of Man. If you are lazy and it is not worth the time and effort to you to learn God’s Holy Gospel for
yourself, then you are not an innocent, but are lax in your worship, therefore eternal death awaits you.
Then the anger of the Lord and his jealousy shall smoke against that man. Knowledge is the seed to
the true and correct worship of God, if you choose to go through life ignorant, then eternal death will be your
reward.
All the cures that are written in this book shall lie upon him. In the Books of Deuteronomy and
Revelation there are many curses and plagues spoken of, those who accept the false gospel and refuse to accept
God’s Word as truth, will be subject to all of these curses, for God is giving warning, repent now before it is too
late.
New Heaven and Earth
The Lord shall blot out his name from under heaven. Upon Judgment Day, when a man is found
lacking, he is thrown into the pit of Hell’s Fire, in this all that you are ceases to exist, in this way your name is
blotted out, for you will be no more. When you die the mortal death, your memory still lingers on in the
memory of those who loved you, and in the memory of God, but the second death is absolute and there will be
no memory left of you. When the Old Heaven and Earth pass away, all those who rejected God’s True Word
will pass away with them.
Page: 41
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
This also refers to the fact that the Old Heaven and Old Earth will pass away, and a New Heaven and
Earth will come in their place. In this New World, you will never have existed, for not even God will retain
memory of you.
Remember: you either love God or you hate him, there is no middle road.
These words that you
are reading give warning and tell the truth of God’s Word, accept this truth, and repent your evil ways.
Those Who Shun God’s Word
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; “Behold, I will feed them, even this people,
with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.” Jeremiah 9:15
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel. This is a pledge or an oath being made by
God. Know this to be true, know that he is angry that you accept false gospel, and know that your eternal soul
hangs in the balance.
“Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.”
Know that this is true and when it has come to pass and you will have no fresh water to drink, remember this
curse and repent. Know then that what you have been told is a lie and only through your repentance and your
personal search for God’s True Word will you have a chance of redemption.
Signs of Warning
Even at this point that we live in, and during the Great Tribulation, it will NOT be too late. When all of
these plagues afflict you, they are warning signs for you to take notice of. If you repent and go in search of
God’s True Word, and remove yourself from the churches that preach Satan’s False Gospel, then you might still
be forgiven. If you wait until the mortal death, then it will be too late for you. If you wait till the Second
Advent of Christ, then it will be too late for you.
God’s Wrath
And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it
fell upon the third part of the river, and upon the fountains of water; And the name of the star is called
Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because
they were made bitter. Revelation 8:10-11
Page: 42
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
These verses leave little doubt that it is God venting his wrath upon those who do not give worship to
him as he commands. I still do not see this as God who is causing these events to happen, however. It is the
weapons of war created by Man that are causing these things to happen and all that has been revealed in these
verses so far, however, it is part of God’s wrath upon the nations and people of the world that give support to
the anti-Christ, in that God could prevent this but chooses not to, for what reason would God have for being
merciful to those who show their hatred of him by refusing to accept his word as truth, and giving worship in a
way that he has not commanded? This brings to mind the following verse.
Showing Disrespect for God
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Exodus 20:6
God is merciful to those who love him, but if you reject the Word of God as being Truth, then you show
your hatred of God, and he will have no cause to be merciful to you. In the above verse, God is being very
explicit, to show your love for God, to manifest your love for God, is accomplished by you’re keeping his
commandments. The observance of the Seventh Day Sabbath is spelled out in God’s Fourth Commandment;
therefore you must keep the Sabbath as God commands you to, else you show your disrespect and hatred of
God.
God is calling out to you
My sons, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: that thou mayest regard discretion,
and that thy lips may keep knowledge. Proverbs 5:1-2
Attend unto my wisdom. In these words, know that God is speaking to you directly, not to Man in
general, but directly to you who are now reading these words. He is giving warning to you, “Give attention to
what I say, for my words are truth.”
Bow thine ear to my understanding. When you read the Bible, do not just read over God’s words as
you would a novel? If you do, stop, take the time to gain understanding of what God is telling you. Only in
knowledge can you find God, ignorance is Satan’s weapon against you.
That thou mayest regard discretion; the word “Discretion” is defined as, good judgment, the
freedom to decide based upon knowledge, the ability to make intelligent choices. In the
knowledge of the truth, as found in the Word of God, you will know right from wrong, you will know if you are
about to sin, and you will know that to sin is to bring you to eternal death.
Page: 43
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
To be tempted, but then to refuse that temptation is the path of righteousness, and the path to salvation.
Remember: Jesus was tempted by the Devil, and overcame those temptations. In doing so, Jesus taught you and
me that we too can overcome Satan’s temptations that are manifest in the world. Only through knowledge will
you know beforehand if the temptation is sin, therefore you need to educate yourself in God’s True Word.
And that thy lips may keep knowledge. In these words, God refers to your lips as keeping knowledge,
what this means is that if you know God’s Morality and embrace it as your own morality, then you will be
unlikely to speak lies and other abomination from your own lips.
Do you see the importance that God places upon your having knowledge and understanding of his Holy
Gospel? Ignorance is how Satan causes you to believe false gospel, and false gospel causes you to worship in
ways other than as God has commanded. To rely on the word of others without your researching and studying
the Word of God, is to accept blindly, and to fall into Satan’s trap.
In these writings that God has given me to place upon this Web Page, I have done most of the hard work
for you, but you still need to engage in your own personal search for God, else you will fall short of God’s
Mercy.
A Strange Women
For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: But her
end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on
hell. Proverbs 5:3-5
In the above God uses the example of sexual Adultery and Fornication to give emphases to his meaning.
For the lips of a strange woman, is such an example. A “Strange Woman” is to a man, a woman who is not
your wife, such as a harlot or a whore. Just as a “Strange Man” is to a woman, not your husband.
The only time God allows sex as not being a sin is when it is between a legally married husband as his
wife, of which God further defines as a Man and a Woman, all other sexual encounters is to engage in the sin of
Adultery or Fornication and are an abomination unto the eyes of God.
Homosexuality is all about engaging in sex, and because it is between two people of the same sex, it is
defined by God as being Fornication. It is for that reason that Homosexuals are an abomination unto the eyes
of the Lord, because all sex outside of marriage as defined by God is sinful.
Page: 44
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Fornication of the Soul
But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. When you engage in Fornication you
are engaging in sin. To sin, is to be unrighteous. Only the righteous will enter heaven, only the righteous will
know eternal life.
Accepting Satan’s False Gospel as the truth, is fornication of the soul, just as being with a Strange
Woman is fornication of the body.
Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. To sin, be it fornication, murder, stealing, or not
observing the Seventh Day Sabbath, will lead to Judgment, and Judgment is the path to Eternal Death, and
accepting Satan’s False Gospel is the road that takes you there.
God uses the above example to show that Satan’s False Gospel is like that of a Strange Woman, in that
the words sound true and unencumbered with guilt, but the result is sin.
Why Am I?
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.
Proverbs 5:6
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life. Have you ever given thought to who you are, what your
purpose in life is, or what all the work and efforts that you have put into your life amounts to?
When you die, all your accomplishments, regardless of your station in life, are left behind. When you
die, you take nothing with you, not even your body. So to what purpose is there in doing any of it?
In using the example of Fornication, God wants you to know, her ways are moveable. If you look up
the word “Moveable” in the dictionary it means: Something that can be moved, portable. When you
look up the word “Moveable” in the Bible Concordance the word moveable replaces the original Hebrew word,
“Nuwa” which means: to waver, in a great variety of applications, fugitive, to scatter.
Therefore, her ways are moveable is God’s way of telling you that to engage in sinful acts is futile, and rather
than bringing you closer to God, those sinful acts will scatter you away from him.
God is telling you that to engage in sin is to engage in unrighteousness, that thou canst not know them
you must refrain from sin, and seek only right not wrong in your life. If you want to know where you can learn
Page: 45
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
what is right and what is wrong as defined by God, you can start by studying and learning the meaning of the
Ten Commandments and complete your study with the Teachings of Jesus and the morality that he taught.
God’s Way or Eternal Death
Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth. Proverbs 5:7
Hear me now therefore, O ye children. In these words from the Book of Proverbs, Christ is calling to
you, and warning you. In Jesus you are justified in your hope of salvation, but it is only a hope. To achieve
salvation you must also remove yourself from sin. Just declaring Jesus your savior will not give you salvation,
you also need to be free of sin. Only through your knowledge of what constitutes sin can you hope to keep
away from sin.
Depart not from the words of my mouth. The Bible is the only place where you can find the Word of
God spoken from the mouth of God into the ear of his prophets. Study the writings of the Bible and gain
understanding of what those words truly mean, then with this knowledge you will know righteousness from sin.
You can only know what sin is by knowing the Ten Commandments, and the Teachings of Jesus. Only in
embracing the morality of God, which is the opposite of sin, can you have redemption and through redemption,
salvation. Only the righteous will know heaven, therefore only the righteous will know salvation.
According to his Deeds
Who (God) will render to every man according to his deeds: to them who by patient continuance in welldoing, who seek for glory and honour and immortality, they will receive eternal life. But to them that are
contentious, and do not obey the truth, (of the Word of God), but obey “Unrighteousness”, indignation and
wrath, tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil. Romans 2:6-9
If you are “Unrighteous,” then you are not “Righteous,” to be Righteous is to keep the Commandments
of God and embrace the moral Teachings of Jesus, anything short of that and you will know God’s wrath.
God Defines Evil
God defines “Evil” as those who do not obey or are in opposition to the Word of God and
his law. If you fail to keep even just one of the Ten Commandments, then God considers you Evil.

Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
If you do not keep the Seventh Day Sabbath, just as God spells it out in the Fourth Commandment, but
instead observe the Sabbath on the first day of the week, (Sunday), then God considers you to be Evil, and as
such you will wear the Mark of the Beast.
Not all Israel are Israelites
Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of
the law, and the service of God, and the promises; whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh
Christ came, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen. Not as though the Word of God hath taken none
effect, for they are not all Israel, which are of Israel. Romans 9:4-6
What Paul is saying is even though all who were at the time of Jesus, who were citizens of the Nation of
Israel, were not all Israelites as I have defined above.
Sun and Moon Darkened
And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon,
and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part
of it, and the night likewise. Revelation 8:12
When you have the combination of the debris from the nuclear explosions and the forest fires and grass
fires, with all the smoke and soot going into the atmosphere, you will have such conditions as is being spoken of
in this verse. It is in this way that a Nuclear Winter will be brought about.
As you can see, these things like the sun and moon darkening are similar to what was given in previous
verses, and are in fact further discussion of those same events.
In the Day of God’s anger
For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be
darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. And I will punish the world for
their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay
low the haughtiness of the terrible. I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the
golden wedge of O’phir. Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the
wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger. Isaiah 13:10-13
Page: 47
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
As you can see, these things like the sun and moon darkening are similar to what was given in previous
verses, and are in fact further discussion of those same events.
These verses of Isaiah are in direct relationship to the downfall of the Babylonian Empire, however,
anyone with knowledge of history would know that no such events took place back in 600 to 550 BC.
End of Days Prophecy
This leaves me to believe, that God is using the Pagan aspects of the evils of the Babylonians as a
prophecy of the End of Days. The reference is given to make us realize, that these words are directed at the city
of Babylon the Great, which is prophesied to be in the End of Days as being the capital city of the anti-Christ
religion. I therefore consider this to be an event yet to come from when I am writing these words.
Through my research and study of the Bible, I have come to discover that the city of Babylon the Great
exists already, (Rome, Italy), as I have explained in other lessons, and not something that has yet to be built, as
many deceived by Satan believe.
The Nuclear Bombardment ends
And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe,
woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which
are yet to sound!” Revelation 8:13
As bad as this war has all been, with the above revealed nuclear holocaust, this verse is telling us, that
God’s Wrath isn’t over, and Woe are the inhabitants of Earth indeed. This verse marks the end of the nuclear
bombardments of the war.
The next verses give more in-depth description of the forces involved in what caused the war and the use
of the nuclear bombs that ravage one third of the Earth, Sea and Man.
The World at War
And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand, thousand: and I heard the
number of them. Revelation 9:16
If you multiply 200,000 by 1,000, you get 200,000,000, or 200 million. Armies of these numbers has
not been assembled since the end of World War II, so this suggests to me, that World War III will be at least as
Page: 48
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
terrible, yet other verses suggest, millions upon millions of people will perish in this war. If you take the
number of people that live on this world as of 2016, there is over Seven Billion people alive, take 1/3rd of that
and you get, 2 Billion, 333 Million. To put this into perspective, this is more deaths than in all other wars
fought between men since Cain killed Able. The devastation of this war will be immense.
Fire Smoke and Brimstone
And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of
jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued
fire and smoke and brimstone. Revelation 9:17
As I have suggested earlier, the Book of Revelation is predominately spoken in symbolisms of what God
actually intends.
Remember: Jesus began this series of prophecies by speaking about the Four Horsemen of the
Apocalypse, with this above in mind, Jesus returns to this discussion of them, and it is they who he is giving
description of and not the human combatants.
I interpret the Fire, Smoke and Brimstone as being the explosions of the nuclear weapons, which tells
me that with this verse Jesus is now discussing of the nuclear aspect of the Great War.
Third Part of Men Killed
By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone,
which issued out of their mouths. Revelation 9:18
In that nuclear explosions are likened to the visualizations given in the above verse, I see these three
aspects of the nuclear war as being that which this verse is speaking of.
This above verse also suggests to me, that perhaps the Fire, Smoke and Brimstone are not just the
nuclear weapons, but also, the result of Satan’s False Gospel that the anti-Christ, the False Prophet, and those
that come from the Bottomless Pit preach. After all, these are religious fanatics, whose religion is based upon
Satan’s False Gospel and not the Word of God. This understanding is given support by this next verse.

Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Power In their mouth
For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had
heads, and with them they do hurt. Revelation 9:19
Whenever God refers to the mouth, it is a reference to words spoken. In this case the power of I.S.I.S.
is in the false gospel that it preaches. From that false gospel evil people are encouraged to join their cause, and
so the ranks of the I.S.I.S. fighters grow.
In the above verse Jesus tells us that their power is in their mouth, it is out of the mouth that lies and
deceptions spew, and these extremists do entice others to join them from their false words. This interpretation
is being given credibility in that today I.S.I.S. is recruiting people from all over the world, and their recruiting
tools is the dogma of the false religion that they preach.
No Repentance
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their
hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood:
which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Revelation 9:20
The nuclear holocaust will result in the death of one third of the human population of the Earth. To put
that into perspective, there are just over 7 Billion people on this Earth at present, one third of that calculates out
to 2.33 Billion people will die just from the nuclear weapons, not counting the subsequent Great Tribulation that
follows the bombs.
In all the wars ever fought by Man since Cain slew Able, including the Second World War and all the
wars since, add all the dead up and I do not believe that they will equal 2.33 Billion. It is for this reason that
God calls this, the last war of Man, the Great War.
Despite all these warnings in the Books of the Bible and especially the Book of Revelation, that has
existed for thousands of years, people still do not believe, and still rebel against the Commandments of God.
Such is the power of Satan over the minds of Man.

Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Evil Ways
Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
Revelation 9:21
If these events were truly of a super natural aspect, do you really believe that those not killed would not
see that the conflict was God’s doing and thus give repentance? If on the other hand this is a war between
nations of Man, then there would be less likelihood that Man would see God’s hand in any of it.
Only those of us, who have taken the time and effort to study Bible Prophecies and therefore have
knowledge of what all these events represent, will know the truth and see these events for what they truly are.
All of those things listed above that are affected by this war represent sins against the Ten
Commandments and or the Teachings of Jesus. Despite all of these tribulations that have been foretold ages
ago, those that remain after the devastation and destruction, still do not recognize God; such is the success of
Satan in telling his lies and deceptions.
Sorceries
Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
Revelation 9:21
By the way, the English word sorceries, is a confusion of the meaning of the Hebrew and Greek words
used. In fact the word “sorceries” as used above, is better replaced with the words, mind altering drugs or
medications, and not something to do with witchcraft.
This understanding tells me that God is making it known that those who use drugs or abuse alcohol are
engaged in sin. Your body is the Temple of your soul, which in turn is a Temple of God, which holds the spirit
of God, for you to abuse your body by polluting it with drugs and alcohol is to pollute the essence of God, and
is therefore a show of disrespect for yourself and for God.
Water to Wine
There are those, I am sure, who will say that that is not true, they will point out that Jesus turned water
into wine, therefore it is not a sin to drink wine. The wine that Jesus turned the water into was not fermented
wine. If you read the verses given in context to Jesus turning the water to wine, you will see that it is referred to
as the “Good Wine,” which means that it was nothing more than grape juice. Wine before it is fermented.
Page: 51
Lesson 29: The Beginning of Sorrows
Take Note: what Jesus is telling us in the above verses is that they, those who have the Mark of the
Beast, won’t repent their murders, nor sorceries, nor fornication, nor their thefts. These things are all
covered under the Ten Commandments or the Teachings of Jesus. What Jesus is telling us is that those that
survive the nuclear holocaust will still reject God’s Law and continue on in the worship of false gods and
religions.
I see many of these survivors turning to religion for solace, but the religions they turn to will not be
those that give true and correct worship to God as God commands, but will be based upon Satan’s False Gospel,
which is the anti-Christ or the Sunday worshipers, and the False Prophet which is the godless religion of
Liberalism. It is those so deceived by Satan that will bear the pain and suffering of God’s Wrath.
A Temple of God
Your body is the vessel of your soul, which in turn is a Temple of God, which holds the spirit of God,
for you to abuse your body by polluting it with drugs and alcohol is to pollute the essence of God, and is
therefore a show of disrespect for yourself and for God.
