Just received the following from the daughter of beloved CCOG deacon Richard Close:

Hello

We just received word from the hospital that dad died shortly after midnight. We appreciate your prayers on his behalf.

Elizabeth

This means he died on the Roman calendar date of January 3, 2022 in his time zone.

Richard Close was a long time member of the Church of God. He was ordained a deacon in 1989. He lived in Towanda, Pennsylvania.

20 years of the euro!

Luc Luycx won the EU competition to design the reverse side of the series of eight euro coins back in 1996.

Now his designs are seen daily by 340 million people.

As the above tweet shows, yesterday marked the 20th anniversary of the European currency called the euro. Physical euro coins and banknotes entered into circulation on 1 January 2002, making it the day-to-day operating currency of its original members, and by March 2002 it had completely replaced the former currencies.

Over 30 years prior to that, the old Worldwide Church of God published the following:

Momentous, historic events are transforming Western Europe. … A new Western Europe controlling perhaps half of all world trade, by exclusive arrangements with dozens of nations who produce raw materials. A “United States of Europe” possessing one single currency – a currency so strong that it will replace the U. S. dollar as the kingpin currency of world trade. (Hogberg G. EUROPE’S COMMON MARKET RISING WORLD COLOSSUS. Plain Truth, April 1971)

So, yes, something like the euro was long expected by the Church of God.

And yes, the USA dollar is in the process of being nudged aside–and ultimately replaced.

This morning, a reader sent me a link to an article (see https://www.rt.com/business/544825-dump-dollar-gold/) that shows that the US dollar is becoming less of the world’s primary reserve currency. Though the article did not mention it, the other contender for the world’s primary reserve currency at this time is the euro.

Europe has been taking steps, however it does not have the type of global influence it wants, yet.

And, by the way, Europe also wants dominance over crytpo and digital currencies. We just uploaded the following video related to that:

EU to be ‘Sheriff’ of BitCoin & Digital Currencies

Will Bitcoin remain unregulated? The European Union does not think it should be and it released a paper titled “Proposal for EU Regulation on Markets in Crypto-Assets.” Christine Lagarde, president of the European Central Bank, earlier endorsed EU regulation of crypto and digital currencies. A Belgian declared that the EU was the “new Sheriff in town” to deal with the “wild west” of Bitcoin, blockchain, and other cryptocurrencies. The European Union now also has the European Public Prosecutor’s Office in operation, mainly to deal with financial matters? Will the Europeans end up controlling buying and selling associated with 666 in Revelation 13:16-18? Is Europe taking preliminary steps to do so now? Dr. Thiel address these issues.

Here is a link to our video: EU to be ‘Sheriff’ of BitCoin & Digital Currencies.

Many want to see a stronger federal EU. A reader sent me a link to the following today:

The German government is to support France in the goal of making the European Union “more sovereign”, according to the country’s new foreign minister.

Annalena Baerbock, the foreign minister of Germany’s new left-led coalition government, has pledged that her country will support France in making “a more sovereign Europe” — that is, one with more power over its member-states’ national governments. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2022/01/01/german-government-to-support-france-in-making-european-union-more-sovereign/

But Europe still faces issues.

CNN reported the following:

22 could be a make-or-break year for Europe

January 2, 2022

In 2022, the European Union must confront some of the most difficult challenges it faces if it is ever to become the geopolitical power its leaders so desperately want it to be.

The Covid-19 pandemic has left efforts to create a more assertive global Europe on the backburner — at the very moment when the global politics of the past two years has created myriad problems for the bloc. These will only get worse if prompt action isn’t taken. …

On Russian aggression and other military issues, the EU has proposed rapid deployment units tailored to specific missions, reducing the reliance on NATO and the US to protect the continent.

On China, Brussels is trying to counter Beijing’s giant global infrastructure initiative by offering alternative investment options.  …

The Trump years made Europe acutely aware that it could not afford to rely wholly on America as an ally.

Most European officials agree that the challenges facing the EU need to be addressed, but the reality of trying to achieve a common foreign policy has been uniquely difficult for a bloc of 27 countries with different domestic priorities.

“While the EU makes most of its big decisions on a super-majority basis, member states have always been very reluctant to surrender their veto power over foreign policy,” said R. Daniel Kelemen, Jean Monnet Chair in European Union Politics at Rutgers University. …

“The way the EU is currently set up fundamentally prevents it from addressing the crises facing us,” said Sophie in ‘t Veld, a Dutch liberal MEP. https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/02/europe/eu-foreign-affairs-2022-intl-cmd/index.html

So, it is widely understood that the European Union needs to somehow change its structure in order to go forward and become the global leader that it wishes to.

Will that happen?

Yes.

Europe will finally reorganize and gain global leadership.

But not in 2022.

Here is some of what the Bible teaches will happen in Europe:

12 “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast.  (Revelation 17:12-13, NKJV throughout unless otherwise specified)

These ten kings have no kingdom, but are to attain one. Thus, this is a type of reorganization in verse 12–perhaps this will be dividing Europe into regions as opposed to simply existing nations. But ten is still a bit slow for managing, and hence we see a single leader gaining all the power. Since they give their power to the Beast in verse 13, this is a second reorganization.

It is very likely that it will take a series of crises (financial, migrant, religion, and pestilence) for those reorganizations to happen.

But they will come to pass.

Europe does have global ambitions, the Bible shows it will attain some of them (see the 17th and 18th chapters of the Book of Revelation), but the Bible also shows it will not last.

The coming European superpower will be replaced by the return of Jesus and the establishment of the Kingdom of God.

COGwriter

Is the end coming in 2022? What about 2023?

Some have claimed so.

Nearly two thousand years ago, Jesus’ disciples specifically asked Him how to know when this would happen (Matthew 24:3; Mark 13:4; Luke 21:7)–and He responded with details. Several of those details are yet to be fulfilled.

But sadly, many overlook what Jesus taught, but instead try to point to other things.

Related to nearly every individual year beginning in 2008, I have denounced false prophets as well as those that speculated on each of those years as to the start of the Great Tribulation, as all who did so were much too close to that date/year for it to be possible.

Consider, for example, that although some claimed that the blood moons in 2014 and 2015 may have marked the beginning, I correctly denounced that years ago (Blood Moons, Eclipses, and Prophecy; a related YouTube video is also available: Blood Moons, Prophecy, 2014, and 2015) and was proven right. I also denounced the so-called Shemitah year and the claimed devastation that was supposed to hit the world economy, etc. in late 2015 (see also 6000 years up and Jesus to return in 2016? and September ‘convergence’: a harbinger of potential disaster?), and again was right. On January 1, 2017, I blasted the idea of the claimed “Jubilee of 2017” would mark the end (see Can the Great Tribulation Start in 2017? Furthermore, I blasted the idea that the solar eclipse of August 21, 2017 (see Solar Eclipse and the Apocalypse) or Planet Nibiru would begin the tribulation or destroy the Earth (see Doomsayers: Planet Nibiru to destroy Planet Earth in four weeks). I also denounced the view that because of the formation of the tiny nation of Israel in 1948, that the Great Tribulation needed to start 70 years later, like in 2018 (watch Can the Great Tribulation begin in 2018?). Some wrongly claimed that something from the “Sabbatical Code” as well as a shemita-decree calculation or a message from Fatima predicted 2019 (see False ‘Great Tribulation’ predictions/calculations for 2019). Some pointed to astronomy and even John 20:20 as proof for 2020 as the beginning, but this was denounced as well (watch Could the Great Tribulation Begin in 2020?). Certain ones who claimed to be COG pointed to 2020 and/or 2021 were wrong (see PCG claims Revelation 17:12 prophecy can happen this year! James Malm wrong about 2021) and some pointed to Israel’s 1948 formation and the US presidential election in 2020 as pointing to 2021 (watch also 2021: The Great Tribulation or the Great Reset?)–which I also denounced.

Why?

Because according to the Bible, other events needed to occur, that had not yet occurred.

We must base the timing of the Great Tribulation upon what the Bible teaches.

The reality is that there are sufficient clues in the Bible, and such as in the books of Daniel and Matthew, that make the prospective of the Great Tribulation happening in the next three years impossible.

Yet, we have seen events occur that are getting us closer.

For example, all the societal deterioration we have seen is consistent with the following being fulfilled:

1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

With all this going on, could it still be possible that the Great Tribulation will begin in 2022?

Let’s look at the claims of some who have said it may be so.

Here is something from I Saw the Light Ministries trying to tie 2022 in with actual and non-actual Holy Days:

I Saw The Light Ministries

Section 1: Summary of the 2022 – 2025 Prophetic Timeline Aligned with 5 Holy Days

-1. On Purim, St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, 2022 = Opening of 5th Seal = The Abomination of Desolation of Dan.12 & Matt.24 = The Strong Delusion of 2 Thes.2. = Bashar Assad, president of Syria, appears in the sky in a fake coming of Jesus. Many people worldwide worship him. Beginning of 30 days of fleeing for the true saints of Jesus and for the Jews. Beginning of the 1290 and 1335 days of Daniel 12. The dates of the holy day events could occur on the traditional Jewish dates, or perhaps on the correct dates. The Jews are usually off by around 2 days of each holy day.
-2. Thirty days later, on the 1st Day of Unleavened Bread, April 16, 2022 = Gog Magog War = Invasion of Israel by Syria, Russia, Iran and other nations. Beginning of 1260 days of the Great Tribulation. The 2 witnesses begin their prophetic ministry.
-3. Pentecost June 16, 2024 = Opening of 6th Seal. Sealing of the 144,000.
-4. Feast of Trumpets, Oct. 3, 2024 = Opening of the 7th Seal. 1st Trumpet blows.
-5. Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) Sept. 30 – Oct. 1, 2025 = Blowing of the 7th Trumpet of the 7th Seal.

https://www.isawthelightministries.com/dates.html accessed 12/08/21

None of that is possible and the Gog and Magog matters happen AFTER Jesus’ second coming, not before according to scriptures in Ezekiel 38 (see also Ezekiel 38: For Russia & Iran in Our Day?).

Here is something accessed 12/01/21:

Great Tribulation/Judgement by Fire (1 h, sep 23, 2022 y – oct 19, 2028)

Description:

Also known as Daniel’s 70th Week, the Time of Jacob’s Trouble, and the Hour of Trial.
This is the Apocalypse – when the LORD God lays low the nations and judges the wicked; purging the earth of its sinners and their dominion over the nations. accessed 12/08/21 .https://time.graphics/period/949704

That is too early and not possible.

Here is another claim that is in conflict with the Bible:

The Great Tribulation and the End of the World in 2022 …

The Holy Bible is a coded book of prophecy written by inspired Jewish people that faithfully kept the Torah of Moses. There are many prophetic books within the Holy Bible that foretell the end of the world or the closing of the age of mankind. The book of Revelation written by John or Yochanan foretells the end of the world in the year 2022. But the end in the year 2022 is not easy to reckon especially when you are not inspired or being guided by the Holy Spirit of God (Shekinah).  accessed 12/08/21 https://kahalyerushalayim.com/index.php/prophecies/great-tribulation-end-2022

While God’s people follow His commands, the Apostle John did not foretell the end of the world in 2022. The Holy Spirit of God does not lead to error (John 16:13), but the above is erroneous. I have encountered many false claims about the Holy Spirit revealing information from Protestants and others.

One Sunni Muslim source has predicted that Jesus may return in 2022:

Jesus Christ’s return (coming back) will most likely be in 2022 (End Times Research Center. www.EndTimes2013.com viewed 08/11/12)

Another Muslim source, pointing what he considers numerous proofs, has similarly asserted:

The Second Coming of Jesus and the Mahdi (AS) ………… is in the year–2023 A.D. (https://www.scribd.com/document/239739419/Imam-Mahdi-in-2023-AD accessed 06/28/21)

Again, that is not possible.

Let me add that I saw a chart put out by a group that split from the Philadelphia Church of God which calls itself Church of God Faithful (https://setapartbytruth.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/2022-26-timeline-possibilities.pdf viewed 12/08/21). That chart falsely declares:

5th SEAL
TRIBULATION BEGINS
March 31, 2023 for 1260
days – end Sept. 12, 2026
(42 months Rev. 13:5-7)

That is too early and in error.

One Protestant pastor claimed that because there are 22 letters in the Hebrew alphabet, 22 chapters in the Book of Revelation, and those 22 chapters supposedly correlate with the first 22 Psalms, this points to the Great Tribulation beginning in 2022. That is nonsensical, but has been promoted, with one reviewer claiming:

“one can agree to it as coming from the Holy Spirit as Inspiration, no doubt” (accessed 12/07/21 chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/viewer.html?pdfurl=https%3A%2F%2Fnebula.wsimg.com%2Fbb00381b6a5f9208288b6019ab2d2120%3FAccessKeyId%3DD40106E1331C24ABD7C3%26disposition%3D0%26alloworigin%3D1)

God’s Holy Spirit did NOT inspire such nonsense. Nor do I believe that the 22 chapters of Revelation correlate to the first 22 Psalms the way some seem to believe.

Now, a true prophet of God realizes that any who claim prior to 2025 are in error. There is NO possibility that the Great Tribulation will begin in 2022, 2023 or 2024 nor that Jesus will return before 2028.

Necessary events that Jesus and Daniel mentioned have not happened that will allow for that.

A 2016 book by Daniel Speck (who appears to be some type of Protestant) was titled “Tribulation 2023: A field guide to the Apocalypse”. He also wrote a book in 2014 titled, “2030 Second Coming: 2023 Tribulation, 2016 7 years of plenty” While Jesus could come in 2030, the actual Great Tribulation cannot begin in 2023.

But the Great Tribulation itself cannot begin before 2025.

The Shemitah of 2022 and the Super Shemitah

According to various ones, including the Messianic Jew Jonathan Cahn, a Shemitah year runs from sunset September 6, 2021 through sunset September 25, 2022. Which is the beginning of the Feast of Trumpets in 2021 and then ending with the next one in 2022.

A Jewish source, because of the claimed Shemitah, has been pointing to 2022 as a possible year for the Messiah to come (see https://www.israel365news.com/194383/israel-prepares-for-the-pre-messiah-sabbatical-year-nations-offer-to-provide-bounty/). But, while Jesus already came and will return, He will not return in 2022. That is too early.

The idea of disasters coming from/during a Shemitah year was popularized nearly a decade ago by Jonathan Cahn, who is perhaps best known for his book The Harbinger. I looked into this before and DO NOT BELIEVE THAT WE ARE IN THE SHEMITAH YEAR, thus believe any claims based upon that are irrelevant.  He was wrong about what would/might happen at the end of the last one (see September ‘convergence’: a harbinger of potential disaster?)

Jonathan Kahn wrote a book on the Shemitah, then when it was, in my view quite wrong, he updated it. The updated book is titled: The Mystery of the Shemitah Updated Edition: The 3,000-Year-Old Mystery That Holds the Secret of America’s Future, the World’s Future…and Your Future! The back cover of the book states:

WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT? … Understanding this seven-year pattern is essential for understanding the prophecy and the mysteries of the Bible that are still applicable today … the rise–and possibly the fall–of America can be linked to the year of the Shemitah.

If this was ESSENTIAL for Christians, then, in my view, Jesus would have so stated. Instead, Jesus pointed to various signs as well as to the Book of Daniel.

It is not just Jonathan Cahn who has pointed to the Shemitah year. Notice the following from State of the Nation:

2022: The Controlled Demolition of Everything

July 26, 2021

The 2022/2023 AD time window was selected decades ago as the time frame to conduct a controlled demolition of the entire Global Economic & Financial System (GE&FS). …

TPTB {The Powers That Be} have long planned to coordinate a controlled demolition of the GE&FS under the rubric of the GREAT RESET. …

The year of 2022 was specifically chosen as the beginning of the “Year of Final Collapse” for various reasons, each of which mutually supports the other. …

First and foremost, 2022 is not only a scheduled Shemitah year, it is the year of the Super Shemitah.  The indisputable 7-year pattern of Shemitah years has been long established as explained here: The Actual Timing of the GREAT RESET Laid Bare. …

In all likelihood, the coming two to three years will make the First American Revolution look like a very tame Tea Party. http://stateofthenation.co/?p=75719

No, while I expect violence and a certain amount of chaos the next 2-3 years in the USA will NOT “make First American Revolution look like a very tame Tea Party.”

What about the Super Shemitah? Well, if the above source was correct, then it would run from sunset September 25, 2022 or more properly sunset October 4, 2022 (the Day of Atonement) through sunset September 15th or 24th in 2023.

NWO GLOBALISTS AND BANKSTERS ARE ACCELERATING THE GREAT RESET TO ALIGN WITH THE SUPER SHEMITAH of 2022/2023

July 16, 2020

Make no mistake; the GREAT RESET has been planned for centuries. Yes, centuries!

The New World Order globalist banksters have essentially owned and operated planet Earth over the millennia that define the present age which began with the Mayan Long Count Calendar.  That highly accurate and predictive calendar started well over 5000 years ago which means that the true end date can be any year going forward. …

Shemitah

It widely known that the field of banking, and particularly where it concerns the practice of charging interest, it always fell to a specific tribe which is recognized as the original international banksters. …

The Shemitah was a sacred seven year custom that was put into practice by the Hebrew communities which had the explicit purpose of forgiving all the debts that accumulated during the previous 7 years.

In this way, all members of the community were regularly relieved of their indebtedness so they could start fresh, and then the whole community rejuvenated financially. …

The 7-year Shemitah cycles and Jubilees have been proven — beyond any doubt — to directly correlate with uncanny precision to many of the major world events of the past 200 years. …

Super Shemitah of 2022

Given the established timeline of every previous Shemitah calamity going back to the beginning of the 20th century, it’s clear that the upcoming Shemitah is actually the Super Shemitah. …

Which is exactly why the upcoming Super Shemitah will be the one to end all Shemitahs.  Which is also why The Powers That Be are surreptitiously and conspicuously setting up the GREAT RESET.

---

KEY POINT: The Super Shemitah of 2022/2023 is the final Shemitah of the era that occurs after the last Shemitah Jubilee that took place in 2015. See: The Great Tribulation Of The 3rd Millennium Foreshadowed By The Shemitah Jubilee

---

The GREAT RESET …

Clearly, the defining events of the Super Shemitah, that will start some time in 2022 and continue throughout 2023, will create a sufficient level of disorder so that TPTB feel they can impose the most draconian changes as dictated by those globalist-directed governments executing the GREAT RESET. …

TPTB will attempt to do anything necessary to preserve their status quo of absolute supremacy for themselves while inexorably pushing the 99% into permanent financial ruin and unending economic hardship.

This is exactly what the GREAT RESET is all about as businesses around the world have been shut down forever as national economies have been destroyed pushing the whole world into a “Second Great Depression”. https://stateofthenation.co/?p=72645

While globalists will take steps, no, the “Great Reset” is not going to be complete in 2022 or 2023.

You may also wish to note that some have claimed ancient sources pointed to 2023:

Nostradamus (public domain source)

Nostradamus: the World will End 4 months before 2023

The following quatrains of Nostradamus arithmetically predict the End-of-the-World and a frightening scenario of the future at the end of 2022. [1]

Jupiter and Saturn joined in Aries, Eternal God what changes. When after a long century the bad times will return In France and Italy what turmoil. Century 1. Quatrain 51

The conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn in Aries is very rare. The astronomical conjunction occurred almost two hundred years ago, and then again on September 2, 1995. …

We have September 2, 1995 as the starting point; now we need to find the duration of these troubles.

The third antichrist is soon annihilated, His bloody war will have lasted 27 years. The heretics/unbelievers are dead, captured, exiled. The blood of human bodies will redden the whole earth. Century 8. Quatrain 77

We can assume the third antichrist will be the last one in history. …

September 2,1995 + 27 years = September 2, 2022. …

Paracelsus: the World will End in 2023

Paracelsus (1538 portrait by Augustin Hirschvogel)

Paracelsus, in the Twenty Ninth figure of his prognostications, shows a lamb with a bishop’s mitre on its head feeding beneath a tree, and is accompanied by the following:

Thus shall it come to pass that each one will be led into its own pasture. For feeding in strange pasture causeth distress, contention, and misery in this world. …  not far from the year XX XX III. Paracelsus …

The fact that Paracelsus tells us this is a year is the clue to the correct interpretation of the figure. XX (20) XX (20) III (3) = 2023!  …

Construction begins on the abomination of desolation in 688 A.D.

On the death of Abu Bakr, Omar ibn al Khattab, advisor to Mohammed became the second caliph and ordered that a magnificent golden domed mosque, Islam’s third holiest shrine, be built… directly over “the most holy place” in Jerusalem.

The Mosque of Omar, The Dome of the Rock is the correct identification of the abomination of desolation.

Applying the date of 688 A.D. to Daniel

Biblical scholars acknowledge the words of Ezekiel who wrote 30 years before Daniel. “I have appointed thee each day for a year”. Using each day for a year,

688 AD + 1335 years = 2023

Having been given this final dating Daniel is then told, in the last verse of his book:

But go thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days. Dan 12, v13

The finality of this last verse is unequivocal and relates directly to the penultimate verse stating as it does that those who reach the 1335 days [years] are not only blessed but will have reach the “end of the days”.

Nostradamus: the World will End 4 months before 2023
Paracelsus: the World will End in 2023
Daniel: the World will End in 2023

Robert Singer: the World will End in 2023

The biblical reality is that necessary events that Jesus and Daniel mentioned have not happened that will allow for that.

For some scriptural proof, let’s look at the account in Matthew 24:

4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 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. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

15 “Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), 16 “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. (Matthew 24:4-16)

There is no possibility that the Great Tribulation can happen in 2022 and those who rely on the Bible have realized this. It is only those who overlook scripture and rely on their own views and/or false traditions who make the mistake of thinking that the Great Tribulation can, or could, happen in 2022 or 2023.

Why do I state this?

Jesus pointed to Daniel.

Thus, one reason that the Great Tribulation will not begin yet is that one known as the final King of the North in Daniel 11 needs to rise up.

The Bible shows that the coming “King of the North” will make a deal of some sort with one called the King of the South just before the appointed time of the end:

27 Both these kings’ hearts shall be bent on evil, and they shall speak lies at the same table; but it shall not prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time (Daniel 11:27).

Daniel chapter 11 tells much about the end times and it involves both a King of the South and a King of the North. And while there was a president of the South and a president of the North in the Union for the Mediterranean (see Deal Leading to Psalm 83?), these individuals have not held the type of power (nor prerogatives) of the prophesied King of the North and the King of the South. Nor will the current head of the post-Lisbon European Union, likely be the final King of the North as she does not seem to fit that description.

Since the Great Tribulation will not start before there is an actual King of the South and an actual final King of the North –it is not yet.

Now the Bible shows that a “prince” will apparently confirm a peace deal with Israel:

26 And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the desolate (Daniel 9:26-27).

There are several reasons that this “prince” is referring to the leader of the developing European empire (see King of the North and Europa, the Beast, and the Book of Revelation). One is that it was the people of the Roman Empire of the 1st century that fulfilled the portion of Daniel 9:26 as they destroyed the city (Jerusalem) in 70 A.D. The European Union includes much of the land and peoples that were part of the ancient Roman Empire. And it is the “prince” coming from that people that verse 27 is referring to. Thus, this prophecy tells us that a lower level European leader will officially start to rise up about 3 1/2 years before the great tribulation (and yes, according to Jesus, some “tribulation” does happen prior to the start of the Great Tribulation). Another is the fact that the “beast of the sea” (Revelation 13:1) fits with the beasts from the “great sea” (Daniel 7:2)–and that is the Mediterranean Sea according to the Old Testament–hence this is an empire like the old Roman one (for more details, please see Europa, the Beast, and the Book of Revelation).

This portion of scripture in Daniel seems to be discussing some type of peace deal that the Europeans will either propose or at least one from Europe will endorse. Such a deal did not exist as of late 2020, or at least was not publicly confirmed by the “prince” by then. The deal will be broken 3 1/2 years later (Daniel 9:27; 11:31).

Therefore, even though the Great Tribulation is coming soon, it will not begin in 2022.

Christians, Philadelphian ones, are to understand Jesus said tribulation-related events tie in with Daniel. Yet, most who profess Christ do not fully get it. Anyway, after Daniel 11:31 and the fleeing (Matthew 24:15; Revelation 12:14-17), the Great Tribulation begins:

21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened. (Matthew 24:21-22)

This cannot possibly happen before 2025 and I currently doubt believe the Great Tribulation can start before 2026.

23:12

Can the Great Tribulation start in 2022 or 2023?

Much is happening around the world today. Is the Great Tribulation about to begin? Various ones have pointed to it starting in 2022 or 2023–and stated that they got 2022 from the Holy Spirit. What about centuries old predictions supposedly pointing to 2022 by Nostradamus and Paracelsus? Some Muslims have pointed to Jesus returning in 2022 or 2023. Is that possible? Should you rely on Jonathan Cahn’s views of the ‘Shemitah year’ to understand prophecy? What about the ‘Super Shemitah’ (also known as the Jubliee year)? Are there still signs that Jesus and Daniel pointed to that we need to see first? If so, what do they include? What is the earliest year that the Great Tribulation can begin according to scripture? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.

Here is a link to the video: Can the Great Tribulation start in 2022 or 2023?

But make no mistake about it–the end is coming and fairly soon–and probably, sometime in the next ten or so years. But the Great Tribulation will not start in 2022 nor 2023 (if there is a major war in the Middle East that is resolved by the Fall of 2022, then maybe 2026).

Anyway, if you are willing to believe the Bible, you can understand that the Great Tribulation cannot start in 2022 or 2023.

CNN reported the following:

The Covid-19 case surge is altering daily life across the US. Things will likely get worse, experts warn

January 1, 2022

The US is ringing in the new year amid a Covid-19 surge that experts warn is exploding at unprecedented speed and could alter daily life for many Americans during the first month of 2022.

“Omicron is truly everywhere,” Dr. Megan Ranney, a professor of emergency medicine at Brown University’s School of Public Health, told CNN on Friday night. “What I am so worried about over the next month or so is that our economy is going to shut down, not because of policies from the federal government or from the state governments, but rather because so many of us are ill.”

The nation broke records at least four times this week for its seven-day average of new daily Covid-19 cases, reporting an all-time high of more than 386,000 new daily infections Friday, according to the latest data from Johns Hopkins University. …

Previous rules of virus are ‘out the window’

The latest surge, which has sent case numbers exploding across the globe, is fueled by the Omicron variant, the most contagious coronavirus strain yet, health experts say.

The virus is now “extraordinarily contagious” and previous mitigation measures that used to help now may not be as helpful, CNN medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner told CNN on Friday. …

“At the beginning of this pandemic… we all were taught, you have a significant exposure if you’re within six feet of somebody and you’re in contact with them for more than 15 minutes. All these rules are out the window,” Reiner said. “This is a hyper-contagious virus.” https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/01/health/us-coronavirus-saturday/index.html

Although on December 30, 2021, CBS reported Dr. Anthony Fauci said “If you want to be fully protected, get boosted,” that is not true.

Perhaps that is one of the “previous rules” that are ‘out the window’?

Some outside the mainstream are referring to Omicron as the latest “Scariant.”

Some items of possibly related interest may include:

COVID 19 is NOT the End, but could it be TEOTWAWKI? The novel coronavirus called COVID-19 is wreaking havoc around the world. Many states of the USA as well as countries in Europe are on lockdown with shelter in place /shelter in residence requirements. In France, a form is required when you are not at your house. In Spain, drones are being used to warn people who are outside to got back to their homes–does that bring up feelings of ‘Big Brother’? Italy, France, and other areas are using police and/or military force to encourage people to stay inside. According to the Bible could this be the end? If not, what has to happen first? Have the second and third of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse started their ride? Could COVID-19 be the fourth horseman? Why or why not? Could we be seeing The End of the World as We Know It (TEOTWAKI) like the R.E.M.’s 1987 single song discussed? Do Christians need to fear? What did Jesus teach? What did the Psalmist teach?

What did Jesus teach about pestilences and sorrows in the Olivet prophecy in Matthew 24? Could COVID-19 be the ride of the fourth horseman of the Apocalypse? Why was this type of disease expected according to the O. Here is a link to a version in the Spanish language: ld Testament prophecies in Deuteronomy and Leviticus? What has the US Centers for Disease Control warned about? What has the CDC reported about the flu? Were there lessons about fear and infections in the 2011 movie ‘Contagion’? Because of COVID-19, the World Health Organization (WHO), nation of Iran, and certain French locations are telling people not to use cash, but instead electronic forms of payment. The US Federal Reserve is now quarantining money repatriated from Asia to reduce the potential spread of the coronavirus on US currency bills. Is COVID-19 worse than we have been told or could this all be a ‘false flag’ event to encourage people to move towards a cashless society? If the thousands of deaths associated with COVID-19 are pushing parts of the world towards cashlessness, how much more likely will the ride of the fourth horseman and over a billion human deaths motivate people to move to making electronic payments that can be monitored? The Bible tells of a soon coming society that controls buying and selling to force allegiance to a coming European Beast power, known as 666 (Revelation 13:16-18). Does the ‘great tribulation’ begin before ride of the fourth horseman or with the opening of the fifth seal of Revelation 6? Do the words of Jesus helps us better understand the sequence of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse and the start of the Great Tribulation? Will the ride of the fourth horseman help lead to the rise of 666? Is that ride very close? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more in this video.

In his newsletter today, former Roman Catholic Mike Gendron had the following:

Paul VI Audience Hall (Photo from Gendron Newsletter)

The Pope’s Audience Hall Resembles a Snake

Have you heard of the Pope’s Audience Hall that was built in 1971. It is a building that is designed to look like a reptile. In essence, the Pope speaks to his audience from the head of a snake. The whole building and stage appear to resemble the image of a snake. The eyes, the shape, the scales, the fangs, all look like a reptile.

The exterior shape of the building has been likened to the head of a pit viper. Yet, it’s only after one goes inside that the full effect can be appreciated. If one stands at the far end of the hall and looks all the way down to the stage at the other end, where Francis and his four immediate predecessors have given their messages, there’s what looks like a gigantic viper staring back at one with the windows as the elliptical eyes so characteristic of the Viperidae family of reptiles. The stage is the mouth with pillars to either side of the middle shaped like fangs, the center aisle for a tongue, and the design of the ceiling and walls reminiscent of snake skin.

Here is some of what Wikipedia says about it:

The Paul VI Audience Hall (Italian: Aula Paolo VI) also known as the Hall of the Pontifical Audiences is a building in Rome named for Pope Paul VI with a seating capacity of 6,300, designed in reinforced concrete by the Italian architect Pier Luigi Nervi and completed in 1971. It was constructed on land donated by the Knights of Columbus.

It lies partially in the Vatican City but mostly in Italy: the Italian part of the building is treated as an extraterritorial area of the Holy See and is used by the Pope as an alternative to Saint Peter’s Square when conducting his Wednesday morning General Audience. (Paul VI Audience Hall. Wikipedia, accessed 01/01/22)

The New Testament has warnings about a power backed by a snake or serpent-type reptile, depending on the translation.

Notice the following from the 12th chapter of the Book of Revelation:

7 Then a war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels had to fight a war with the serpent. The serpent and its angels fought. 8 But it was not strong enough, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. 9 The huge serpent was thrown down. That ancient snake, named Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world, was thrown down to earth. Its angels were thrown down with it. 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, power, kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah have come. The one accusing our brothers and sisters, the one accusing them day and night in the presence of our God, has been thrown out. 11 They won the victory over him because of the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life so much that they refused to give it up. 12 Be glad for this reason, heavens and those who live in them. How horrible it is for the earth and the sea because the Devil has come down to them with fierce anger, knowing that he has little time left.”

13 When the serpent saw that it had been thrown down to earth, it persecuted the woman who had given birth to the boy. 14 The woman was given the two wings of the large eagle in order to fly away from the snake to her place in the wilderness, where she could be taken care of for a time, times, and half a time. 15 The snake’s mouth poured out a river of water behind the woman in order to sweep her away. 16 The earth helped the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river which had poured out of the serpent’s mouth. 17 The serpent became angry with the woman. So it went away to fight with her other children, the ones who keep God’s commands and hold on to the testimony of Jesus. (Revelation 12:7-17, CEV)

So, the most faithful will be protected from the actions of the snake, but the rest of the Christians will be persecuted by it and its backers.

As it turns out, the 13th chapter of the Book of Revelation tells of the persecution of the saints supported by a type of reptile called the dragon. Here are a few passages:

3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.  (Revelation 13:3-13)

Furthermore, the 17th chapter of the Book of Revelation ties these persecutors (Revelation 17:6,14) in with “mystery Babylon” (Revelation 17:5) of the “great city” (Revelation 17:18) of “seven hills” (Revelation 17:9), which is Rome, even according to Roman Catholic scholars.

There are various symbols in that chapter of the Revelation that look similar to some that the current European Union  uses.

As it turns out, he Continuing Church of God (CCOG) recently put out the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:

19:38

EU Babylonian Beast Symbols?

Does the European Union openly use pictures, statues, coins, and other symbols which may tie it in with the prophesied “Mystery Babylon the Great” that the Bible warns against? Where did the name Babylon come from? What about the Tower of Babel? Where did Europe get its name? Did a nymph ride a beast that was supposed to be the pagan god Zeus? Have we seen growth in the European project consistent with warnings in the Book of Daniel? Why does the flag of the EU have twelve stars? Are there ties to Marianism? Does the Bible warn people to come out of Babylon? Yet, do Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic prophecies actual look forward to ‘New Babylon’? Is the time for the rise of this Babylon getting closer? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and points to various symbols being used in Europe.

Here is a link to our video: EU Babylonian Beast Symbols?

That being said, it is interesting that the Vatican has a major hall that looks like the snake is backing their pontiff when he speaks.

It is likely more than a coincidence.

Related to Babylon, the Bible also warns that it will be destroyed and Christians should not be part of it:

1 After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird! 3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury.”

4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.  (Revelation 18:1-5)

8 And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. (Revelation 14:8-12)

Hopefully, the fact that the Pontifical Audience Hall looks like a viper/snake/serpent will help some see the connection to Babylon.
