ISIS, Ebola, Ukraine: Is This What the End Looks Like?

It has been a busy September for answering readers’ questions. The news of ISIS (Islamic State) and Ebola and not to mention Ukraine and Gaza worries many of my readers.

It is scary, disturbing stuff. But does it mean the end is nigh? Is this what the end looks like?

As usual, I’m here to reassure you from the Bible why all these are just bad news and not bad signs.

 

Q. Ebola – “Is this the ‘pestilence’ spoken of by Jesus in Matthew 24:7?”

A. Jesus did speak of pestilence coming at the end. However, we can be sure it has nothing to do with the current Ebola outbreak or any other isolated plague like that. Here’s why:

The pestilence Jesus predicted is coupled with “famines” and “earthquakes” in “every place” (Mt 24:7 Hebrew). When you study it out, it matches a parallel prophecy of global cataclysm predicted in Revelation 6 – 8 to be caused by the undiscovered rogue dwarf planet named Wormwood.

Thus, Ebola is not a fulfillment of Jesus’ prophecy anymore than the 1912 Spanish Flu pandemic or black death of the Middle Ages was.

Q. ISIS – “Are they going to take over America or the World or produce the Antichrist?”

A. Experts agree that ISIS (or ISIL as Obama mysteriously prefers) is not an existential threat to the US. It’s also not found in Bible prophecy.

It may be scary to hear what they are doing and how they are advancing in Iraq and Syria, but we must put it in perspective.
These are Islamic countries where they can recruit as they go and conquer the destabilized swaths of land there. This is not a formula that is going to work the same in non-Islamic countries.
While it’s not like they are going to take over the world, they may pull off some successful terror acts like al-Qaeda did.

Q. Ukraine, Gaza….”Is WWIII Next?”

A.  As tricky to understand as Matthew 24 is, Jesus’ words are very clear about at least one thing. On the topic of wars and rumors of wars, he said “these things must come, but see that you not be troubled for the end is not yet” (Mt 24:6).

Yet, what do so many Christians do when they see these wars? They get troubled. They wonder if these wars are a sign of the end. If they will lead to WWIII?

But they are not. Wars have been with us since Jesus left and will continue until he comes to reign. There is nothing unique about wars. They cannot serve as an end time sign, just as Jesus said. Take Jesus’ advice and “see that you are not troubled.”

Did Nephilim Build the Pyramids?

Tim, I have really enjoyed reading your many articles! I have learned so much! I have a question regarding the Pyramids, I have heard that the Pyramids in Egypt were possibly created by the SONS OF GOD fallen angels children (from being with earthly women) and they learned about heaven from the fallen angels and built the Pyramids to show them what Heaven would be like. That the measurements of the Pyramids are the exact measurements that GOD gives in the Bible. What information do you have regarding this, is there already something on you site I may have missed.

I think you may be referring to the same theory put forth in Patrick Heron’s book about the Nephilim and Pyramids. I have not read his book and listening to him on an interview I heard a misunderstanding of the true nature of the nephilim that cast doubts on his research and conclusions.

Not having read his book or researched much into the pyramids, I do not know why he concludes that, but I have heard there are proven methods that mere men could have built them without help from giants… Herodotus reported on exactly that in the 5th century BCE. Check out these other pyramid construction theories as well.
