You are likely aware that certain numbers used in scripture carry additional, significant meaning beyond just our immediate understanding. The frequency of use of these numbers and the patterns associated with them can be helpful in understanding the context of particular stories and lessons that we read. The number ‘3’ is one that is used […]

Lessons from early Israel for the end times ‘northern kingdom’ and ‘Jacob’-Judah remnant (Part 1)
In this passage, I will examine early biblical days in the land of Israel, and particularly the land that became the northern kingdom. I will relate certain signs and historical events observed in scripture to our current end times. More specifically, I will discuss signs and events that may apply to Israel’s ‘northern kingdom’ of […]
Prophecy in Jesus’ Parable of the Mustard Seed
The Parable of the Mustard Seed spoken by Jesus is a Kingdom parable. This means that it can be seen as having meaning for God’s upcoming Millennial Kingdom and beyond. The following is the actual Parable of the Mustard Seed as it was spoken by Jesus in the book of Mark: And he said, Whereunto […]
Isaiah’s personal and prophetic story (Part 1)
The same, central underlying prophetic storyline for our last days time period as seen through the Prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel, and as discussed previously on this site, is also told through the Prophet Isaiah. Actually, this story was told first by Isaiah who preceded his major prophet peers by about 100 years. Simply put, this […]

Children of Israel “Birthed” in the End Times (Part 1)
Many times God’s Word refers to the importance and significance of (symbolic) childbirth events. When looking at prophetic scripture, “travailing” and childbirthing events commonly take on particular meaning for the purpose of understanding the end times. God’s children who are “birthed” (or delivered out of Babylon’s “matrix” or “womb”) in the last days become those […]
The End Times Nation of ‘Babylon’ (Part 2)
In my last passage, End Times ‘Babylon,’ Part 1, I advocated for viewing ‘Babylon’ in a holistic manner. This includes having a general understanding about ‘Babylon’ as an overarching global anti-Christ kingdom, which will soon emerge more transparently in the Day of the Lord. This kingdom will have its headquarters, so to speak, in the […]
False Prophets in the End Times
When asked about the last days by his disciples Jesus said that many things would occur during this time and among these, he said, “Many false prophets will rise up and deceive many” (Matt. 24:11). False prophets are one major reason Jesus warned several times that we should be sure and not be deceived in […]
Being ‘Awake’ and ‘Watching’ for the soon coming of our Lord and Savior
After my introductory post it naturally follows that I might address the general biblical concept of ‘watching’ just a little more. As you might expect, this concept is presented differently in the scripture, depending on the context in which it is used. Ancient roots of modern-day surveillance and ‘watching’ At the darkest, highest spiritual level […]
