THE
KINGDOM CALENDAR--The Appointed Times & Seasons
The
Kingdom Calendar, also known as the Appointed Times &
Seasons Calendar, and the
Insights in Prophecy Lesson Guides (Revised and Updated, July 2012)
will take you through
the books of Daniel and Revelation for a thorough investigation into final
events. The Calendar shows how the
timelines of prophecy align between the Biblical/ Jewish Festivals (Hebrew: Moedim--meaning "Rehearsal").
The five prophetic time periods in Daniel ("seventy
'sevens'"--490
days,
"2300 evenings and mornings"--1150
days, "time, times and a half"--1260
days,
1290 days
and
1335 days)
are
directly connect to the often-repeated
1260 days (42 months; "time, times and a half") found five
times in the book of Revelation. The
3 1/2 days
of Daniel (9:27)--"the
middle of the seven" and the
3 1/2 days
of Revelation (11:9-11),
when connected to the longer
3 1/2 year period, reveal a prophetic time chart that both begins and ends
with
Bible times.
This alignment forecasts the fulfillment of end-time events known as the
"times and seasons" of Biblical prophecy.
The book The
Kingdom Calendar: Divine Dates of End-time Disaster & Deliverance
is available in paperback at Create Space by Amazon,
and takes you step by step through events of the final crisis, noting how
the great worldwide troubles begin and end within the time allotted by
God. Ecclesiastes 8:5-6
says, “...and a wise man’s heart discerns both time
and judgment.
Because to every purpose there is
time and judgment."

Pressures
Leading to Middle East War, World War III, Financial Collapse,
Disasters, Chaos &
Holocaust
"While
people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them
suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not
escape,"
1
Thessalonians 5:3
The Middle East is about to
erupt, and when it does it will lead to World War III. This
clash of the nations (Matthew
24:7) will begin with conflict between Israel and her surrounding
enemies (Syria, Palestinians, Egypt, Jordan, etc.), and also a US-European-Israeli battering of Iran
(the instigator of Middle East turmoil)... which will summons a Russian response,
likely thermonuclear war and
global holocaust.
Particularly
vulnerable to the Bear attack are three countries (horns/ribs-Daniel
7:5,8) on the Mediterranean coastline--(i.e. Greece, Italy, Spain and/or
Portugal). How do we know? Prophecy gives the direction of the growing
Papal power--the "little horn" (little nation--the Vatican), "started small but
grew in power to the south (i.e. Italy, Spain, Portugal) and to the east
(Greece) and toward the Beautiful Land" (Israel) (Daniel
8:9).
These European nations are currently under financial distress and internal
turmoil, and Russia will consider them wounded and vulnerable to an uprooting
attack. Out of this holocaust will emerge the power-base of the Man of Sin
(Antichrist), whose miraculous
arrival on the global scene will be buttressed by sky events, signs and wonders; the
whole world will marvel at his appearance. America's Middle-East victories will
be short-lived; her (and the world's) financial collapse, devastation and fall from
superpower status will be quick and decisive. No home will be left
unaffected; all mankind will experience calamity and fear that the end of
the ages has come... however, it will only be the "beginnings of
sorrows," (Matthew
24:8).
Deployment
presumably a warning to Israeli and Western officials regarding military
intervention against Assad...Russia’s increased presence in the region —
which began raising eyebrows in the US three months ago — represents one
of its largest sustained naval deployments since the Cold War, the Wall
Street Journal reported on Thursday.
Russia’s Navy
Chief says the task force may be reinforced with nuclear submarines, as the
country starts building up a permanent fleet in the region. “The task
force has successfully passed through the Suez Canal and entered the
Mediterranean. It is the first time in decades that Pacific Fleet warships
have entered this region,” the Pacific Fleet spokesman, Capt. First Rank
Roman Martov told RIA Novosti...The
Mediterranean has recently become a hotspot of military muscle flexing as
global powers seemingly vie for influence. NATO has been staging major naval
war games involving several countries, last October holding an exercise
code-named Noble Mariner 12. Russia held its largest naval exercises in the
region this January, with drills spanning both the Black and Mediterranean
Seas. The media quickly linked both the NATO and Russian war games to the
situation in Syria.
Tehran
apparently believes the West’s patience is running out quickly and that by
the end of the first half of 2013, or by the end of the year, Washington or
Jerusalem – or both – will decide on a military strike against Iran’s
nuclear facilities.
Russian
Navy Admiral Viktor Chirkov said Sunday, May 12, that the process is
underway for creating a permanent staff to run Russian fleet operations in
the Mediterranean Sea. Speaking at Sevastopol, the Black Sea fleet’s home
port, Adm. Chirkov said a staff of 20 officers was already in place. And the
Mediterranean deployment would comprise five to six warships and their
service vessels as well possibly as nuclear submarines which, say our
military sources, are armed with nuclear ballistic missiles.
"He
(Putin) later spurned the approaches by Western leaders by stating that
Moscow would never permit another US-led NATO air campaign against Assad
like the one that overthrew Muammar Qaddafi in Libya in 2011... Since the
chances of dissuading Putin to abandon this strategy are just about nil, the
best Netanyahu can hope for by his face-to-face with the Russian president
is a limited accord on ground rules for averting an Israeli-Russian military
clash in Syria."
Military
source confirms delivery of missiles, according to an AFP report; second
official says
missiles will protect Syria from 'possible attack from the sea.'
Richard
Spencer, Middle East Correspondent, says that Israel's latest air strike on
Syria is more than just an attempt to stop weapons falling into the hands of
its enemies.
"US
sources said earlier Israeli warplanes had struck targets in Syria including
a chemical weapons depot outside Damascus, firing missiles remotely from
Lebanese air space and the Golan starting Friday and continuing up until
early Saturday, May 3."
Genesis
17 shares the story about the father of the nation of Israel--Abram and
his wife Sarai, and how the LORD appeared to
the 99 year old Abram. The LORD, said, "I am God Almighty...
I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you
greatly," (vs.
1-2). The story continues, "God said to
Abraham, "I will give you a son [Isaac] by her [Sarah]... and she will
produce nations." Abraham fell facedown. Then he laughed and
said to himself, "Can a child be born to a hundred-year-old
man?" Of course, Abraham already had a son by Sarah's
maidservant Hagar, whose name was
Ishmael--thirteen years old at this time; however, he was not the chosen
one--rather Ishmael was Abraham's attempt to fulfill God's promise of a
great nation because of his unbelief. As a result, Ishmael's
line--the Arabs, would became Isaac's--the Israelis, arch enemy from that
day forward; and, down through the centuries this bad blood would cause
the great conflicts of the Middle East between the Arabs and the Jews that
continues still today.
Rafsanjani & the US Led War on Iran
Watch
Joel Rosenberg's 2011 message about Purim, and understand why this
ministry has written about the prophetic end-time fulfillment
of this Festival. Purim could begin the prophetic time periods that will culminate three and one-half
years later at the Day of the LORD, just as The Kingdom Calendar shows;
however, this is God's mystery, and He could bring about His kingdom in an entirely different manner or
an entirely different timeline.
The Purim
rehearsal, repeated in the observance of this Festival year after year since
the historic events first occurred as found in the book of Esther in old
Persia. Some day, the
"appointed times" of Bible prophecy will meet their fulfillment.
Although the mysteries continue, God promised to unseal Daniels scroll and
fulfilled his Festivals,
"at the time of the end," Daniel
12:9.
For more than two decades, this ministry has joined others in warning of a
US led coalition against the Islamic nations of Iraq, followed by
Iran--the Goat vs. the two-horned Ram in Daniel
8:1-8. Iraq’s defeat by the American-led coalition commenced on
March 19, 2003, at Shushan Purim—the day Purim is celebrated in
Jerusalem. The second half of this prophecy involving Iran may also
begin at or near a Festival season, as a continuation of this
prophecy that began ten years ago with the attack on Iraq.
The shattering of the larger horn (Iran) that "grew up
later" initiates the beginning of end. Gabriel
told Daniel, "Understand that the vision concerns the time of the
end."
He reaffirmed
the point once again (as though once was not enough to convince the
reader), "the vision concerns the appointed time of the
end." Daniel
8:17, 19. Alexander
the Great, King Darius III and the war of 331 B.C.
over 2,000 years ago does not match the "time of the end"
prediction of war--the common teaching in modern-day commentaries. Daniel
11:2 identifies the instigator of the end-time war as the fourth
leader of Persia (Iran), a very wealthy man, who would stir up Muslims
against Greece (the Hebrew
word "Javan," translated often as Greece, in Daniel's day
generally stood for powers to the West). As
for the fourth and wealthy leader in Iran, Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani
(click here) fit the prophecy
perfectly.
Current
News Event
May 12, 2013
Editor's Note: There
are more articles about Rafsanjani and his 2013 presidential ran for Iran's
presidency in the last 2-3 days than I've seen in 10 years. So many, I'm
linking to a page just for Rafsanjani's current news articles here.
Khatami expressed hope that Ayatollah
Rafsanjani would run for president, saying, “The presence of Hashemi
would be a victory for all.” “If Mr. Hashemi comes, with the
help of God, we will pass through this difficult juncture.”
The Conflict
Over God's Appointed "Times & Seasons"
Written
June 26, 2012by
Kevin Swift
In the book of Daniel, we discover two very
interesting predictions about the final conflict of the ages. It involves
God's "times and seasons" or the "set times and the
laws" of Almighty God. While Daniel prophesies that our
Creator has the
ability to "change times and seasons," he also predicts that the
Man of Sin will, in contrast, attempt to "change the set times and the laws"
of God. Clearly, prophecy is asking us to pay attention to these details, and to consider
the opposing sides and what this means for the last-day saints. It
was just in recent days that this mystery became my focus, and I'd like to
share what I've learned with you.
The
Trials of Jerusalem
Worship at the Western Wall and Temple Mount will be
striped away, according to Bible prophecy--(Read Prophetic
Warning for Jerusalem & Israel). The last
generation of saints have God's promise of the final unsealing of prophecy--including a more thorough understanding of final events that
center around themysterious 1,290
days and 1,335 days of Daniel 12, which says, "From the
time that the daily [worship]... is abolished [at the Western Wall &
Temple Mount] and the abomination that causes desolation is set up [on the
Temple Mount], there will be 1,290 days. Blessed is the one who waits for
and reaches the end of the 1,335 days." In other words, a
disastrous tragedy such as an earthquake (link)
(link) (link)
(link)
(link)
or war will soon stop daily worship at the Western Wall and Temple Mount.
This is the decisive Jerusalem event that initiates the prophetic periods
of the appointed time of the end. Since this may be a Purim event, March
16-17, 2014 is the next watch period. Jesus even said, "There will be...
earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth
pains," Matthew
24:7-8.
"Since
the Arab Islamic foreign occupation of the land of Israel,
Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount — after building the mosque and
Dome of the Rock, it was a Jewish tradition that in the time of
the redemption of Israel when the people of Israel again dwell in
the land and the State of Israel is re-established, the G-d of
Israel will cause a strong earthquake which will completely remove
these foreign houses of pagan worship from the Temple Mount. The
Temple Mount will be ready for the rebuilding for the building of
the Third Temple... scientists stated that a very strong
earthquake will occur in the coming future and the epicenter of
the earthquake will be on the Temple Mount and the Old City."
TempleMountFaithful.org
Soon
after the Jerusalem disaster, Gentile troops will enter the City to
restore order, trampling on Jerusalem for 42 months (1,260 days--Revelation
11:2). The greater
part of the military forces will likely be European NATO
troops; the majority of Israelis
approve of a NATO presence in the West Bank (International
Troops Bound for West Bank?), which western border runs through the
City of Jerusalem. according
to a survey in early 2009. During the time of trouble that follows, the
City and Temple Mount with
religious structures will be rebuilt in Jerusalem (Daniel
9:25)... but this will only set the stage for the division and
ultimate destruction of the City of Jerusalem that culminates during
the 40 day Great Tribulation, because Israel will allow Antichrist
onto the Temple Mount to set up his idolatrous abomination.
America's
Decline & Judgment
Is
America ripe for judgment? Many years ago, Thomas Jefferson said:
"I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; and that
His justice cannot sleep forever. In recent decades, Billy Graham
quipped, "If God
doesn't judge America He will have to apologize to Sodom and
Gomorrah!"
A
secret message from Secretary of State John Kerry was delivered to Iran’s
Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani that said the United Stateswould support his possible presidential candidacy...the
White House would rather Rafsanjani win than Velayati but has contacts with
both. However, he said, to hope that either will change the regime’s
policies is delusional because not only are ultimate decisions made by the
supreme leader.
Iran
has dispatched one of its newest warships to shadow the world's biggest
mine-hunting exercise that has been taking place over the last few days in
the Gulf.
A
fleet of 34 ships will on Monday begin the world's biggest anti-mine
exercise in an international naval show of force after Iranian threats to
close the Gulf.
Rafsanjani
has dominated Iranian politics since the
1980s. Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, who
has registered as a candidate for the June 2013 presidential elections, has
been a dominant figure in Iranian politics since the 1980s.
Likud
lawmaker Tzahi Hanegbi said Israel has no more than a month or two for
stopping a nuclear Iran...Ron Dermer, a senior Netanyahu adviser and
Israel’s next ambassador to Washington, told a group of American Jewish
leaders Sunday that the time for action against Iran’s capacity to build a
bomb – which he termed an existential threat to Israel - must be counted
in months.
The New World Order will result from a series of international policy
changes in response to the
growing
global financial crisis and the desire for a new global currency,
escalating disasters of war, nuclear holocaust, poisoned air, and nature's wrath, along
with supernatural signs and wonders (eg. Marian sightings), and religious
unity based on Vatican/Catholic "Sunday-promoting"
governance centered in the Europe Union (Lisbon Treaty), promoting the
"common good" of all nations under Papal and European
NATO
rule. This will ultimately lead to a global marking system for buying
and selling, and 10 divisions of the world (10 Kings) of Revelation
17:12-14.
There is a Catholic teaching
that before the great climax of human history a righteous Pope will first
rule the world, turning many to Christianity, followed by an evil Pope or Antichrist who would
emerge to fulfill the apocalyptic predictions of Revelation.

The
conclave of cardinals that will choose the next pope is expected to
convene in mid-March. Lombardi, the Vatican spokesman, said “we
should have a new pope for Easter,” which this year falls on March
31.
"It
is as if the 'Keys to the Vatican' have been passed from Malachy Morgair
to Malachi Martin to Tom Horn and Cris Putnam. Petrus Romanus: The Final
Pope is Here, is unquestionably a more comprehensive inquisition into
the Vatican than the Inquisition itself. You've unraveled quantum
entanglement and distilled it to Occam's Razor. Amazing!" - Sue Bradley,

The
Following Excerpt is from the Insights in Prophecy Lesson 10,
Written in 2003
Chapter
10 introduces Daniel's final and lengthiest vision, spanning three full
chapters (Daniel 10, 11 & 12). The future, end-time fulfillment
of Daniel's vision is announced right in the passage itself: Daniel
10:14 says, "Now I am come to explain to you what will
happen to your people [Israel] in the future, for the vision concerns a
time yet to come." The King James reads, "what shall
befall thy people in the latter days."
"And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines,
pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows,"
We should continue to watch the region of Indonesia for massive changes to come, including very large-scale volcanic eruptions. Nearly all of the planet’s current 15 tectonic plates, and in some cases, sub-plates and volcanic arcs are heavily stressed by the recent violent mobility of tectonic plates shaken by earthquakes. I’ve never quite seen a pattern this fraught with potential hazards, or as heavily laden with seismic tension. The planet is now experiencing a major geological crisis, and it’s showing some indication of worsening.
CONSUMING
FIRE: A Biblical Challenge to a Brutal God &
Eternal Burning Flames
What is
the Biblical teaching concerning the future punishment of sinners?
Will men, women and children suffer fiery torture for endless ages? The
Scriptures paint a picture of the demise of sinners, and you might be
surprised what you find when you start in the Old Testament and work your
way through the New. Examine the passages and see for yourself how God
will deal with sin and sinners. You may gain a fresh new perspective about
the compassionate God we serve!

OUR
RESPONSIBILITY

to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be

OUR
LIMITATION
"O
the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How
unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past finding out! For
who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been His counselor?"
Romans 11:33-34
The Word of God points to the
value of prophecy. We can be confident that any effort expanded to dig
deeper and learn more about God's prophetic Scriptures will be time well
spent... especially as the Day approaches.
"The
secret things belong to the Lord our God; but the things that are revealed
belong to us and to our sons forever," (Deuteronomy
29:29).
"Surely
the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret counsel to His
servants the prophets," (Amos
3:7).
"I
am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me,
declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things which
have not been done... I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass. I have
planned it, surely I will do it," (Isaiah
46:9-11).
"[Jesus
said] 'Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I
did not come to abolish, but to fulfill,'" (Matthew
5:17).
"[Jesus]
said to them, 'These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still
with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and
the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled,'"(Luke
24:44).
"Of
Him [Jesus] all the prophets bear witness that through His name everyone who
believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins," (Acts
10:43).
"The
prophets who prophesied of the grace that would come to you made careful
search and inquiry, seeking to know what person or time the Spirit of Christ
within them was indicating as He predicted the sufferings of Christ and the
glories to follow," (1
Peter 1:10-11).
"We
have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay
attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place... But know this first of
all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,
for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the
Holy Spirit spoke from God," (2
Peter 1:19-21).
"The
revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show His servants what
must soon take place... Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this
prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is
written in it, because the time is near... The testimony of Jesus is the spirit
of prophecy," (Revelation
1:1,3; Revelation
19:10).
