Olufemi Sunday Afolabi

With many bible verses telling the world especially Christians on earth, there is all indications that the end is near. Two major bible verses copiously warn us:

1. Matthew 24: 33 says ‘So also, when you see all these things, you know that He is near, right at the door.’

2. The second one is what will be the pointer to the crux of the matter, Daniel 9:25 ‘ 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.’

With the declaration of Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel by the President of the United State of America yesterday- Mr Donald Trump, the second pointer to the end of the world has come to pass.

The first one happened on the 10th May, 1948 when Israel became a Sovereign Nation and gained independence as prophesied in the bible that all the remnant of Israel and those scattered abroad shall come back to the land Hosea 3: 4-5, Ezekiel 34:13, Zec 10:9, etc

We are in a time when we need to pay more attention to Current news : Donald Trump approved Jerusalem as the capital of Israel yesterday, December 6, 2017.

It is on record that both Israel and Palestine ( Philistine in the bible) claim Jerusalem to be their Capital, this has been a perenial war that Samson fought till he died, King Saul fought, King David fought, etc.

As you already know Jerusalem has been the Capital of the Jews from the time of King David in the Bible, until around Ad 35 to 70, when all Jews were forced to flee from Jerusalem to other countries.

What to Look out for in this Period:

Theere is going to be more increase of intifada, war of Isalmic countries against the Jews and against America – Yemen, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc.

The Jews need to build the Last Temple Prophesied in the Bible…. The recipe for this is already done by decalring Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel. Daniel 9:25 ‘ 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.’

From the quote above, the troublous times might mean many things. It could mean there would be wars as mentioned above. It could mean the fulfilment of the Great Tribulation as mentioned in the bible, etc

The Temple whose building material has already been prepared could only be built in Jerusalem, the exact place of the Dome of the Rock, which the Muslims see as the only SURVIVING Share (shrine) of the Muslims in the Middle East.

Anything could happen between now and the end of Trump’s Presidency.

Now these are the twelve major events to watch out for after this meeting between Israel and United States:

1. Moving Israel’s Capital
To Jerusalem.

2. Building of the Last
Temple in Jerusalem.

3. Rapture of the
Church

4. The Great
Tribulation

5. The Physical
Manifestation of the
AntiChrist

6. The 2 Prophets and
Their Ministry.

7. The War of
Armageddon.

8. The 1000 years millennial reign of Christ with the saints

9. Final Judgement of the dead and the living… total destruction of this sinful world and Satan & his kingdom

10. Emergence of the new heaven and the new earth

11. Believers being with God forever enjoying the presence and the glory of God forever

12. Believers Walking the streets of Gold… eat the fruit of the tree of life… while sinners (unsaved) spend eternity in hell fire with knashing of teeth forever and ever….

Please note that these events are not written in strict sequential order ie order of occurence

Are we truly close to the end of the world or mere coincidence?

He that has ear, let him hear- Mat 11:15, Rev 2:29
