URGENT UPDATE:
The cross2victory mission has never been more urgent. The war of Daniel 11v36-44 is developing as a regional war in the Middle East at the very time it was most expected. Trump is set to return, and there are exactly nine months to go until the seventh anniversary of the Revelation 12 sign of 2017, a biblical sign of birth. (The actual timing of birth can only be approximated).
Birth is a blessing, but it also involves a great struggle. I expect that we are approaching nuclear war, but we must continue testing the signs to determine if they are true for our time. The evidence is looking very strong. The Revelation 12 sign depicts the birth of Jesus, and his escape from King Herod's slaughter of the innocent, but today we should consider the birth of the end times generation.
To be clear, the birth is NOT seen as the end. The birth in Revelation 12 is a new beginning, but still in this world. It involves a frightening encounter with the dragon, and a serious conflict, but the outcome is good. There is great celebration. Thankfully birth comes as a miracle for God's people, and a powerful ministry begins. A life long testimony begins with a biblical moment of birth.
Jesus was born with a sign in the sky so it would be fitting for God to use the same pattern again. The Revelation 12 sign originates from the dreams of Joseph in Genesis 37v9. It is understood to be a seven year sign because Joseph had seven good years in Egypt to prepare for a seven year famine, and then his family came, the sun, the moon and the stars bowed down.
The Revelation 12 sign appeared in the sky on 23rd September, 2017 as shown on the Cross2Victory website, the signs menu. Therefore in the next nine months or so we should know if we are arriving at the end times birth.
To understand what may be coming we must study the birth of Jesus to consider how his birth relates both spiritually and apocalyptically. These matters are discussed on the Cross2Victory website. This article touches on some of the main points.
Birth is a blessing to God's people. As for the end times birth, consider a great revival, an awakening, and the outpouring of God's Spirit. Many believe something special is coming. It is often called, 'the latter rain'. But the struggle of birth is serious. The struggle of spiritual new birth is repentance. As for the apocalyptic, biblical moments of birth involve floods, famines and war. The struggle comes first, and the blessings come "afterwards" - Joel 2v28.
In Revelation 12 the struggle of birth is described in terms that resemble the King Herod conflict. When Jesus was born he escaped King Herod's slaughter of the innocent. The sign of the dragon appears in Revelation 12v3. It is the devil, or Satan waiting in front of the woman to devour the child the moment he is born. God's family escape the dragon, and a great war is fought in heaven between cosmic powers, the angelic forces. The end times birth will involve real war.
The end times birth will be a painful moment for the world. One third of the people of the world are likely to die in the disaster (Rev 9v15), but those who are watchful and ready for action will hear God's call to enter his ark of protection. "Out of Egypt I call my son" - Mat 2v15. Many will respond instinctively. I believe the second coming of Trump will trigger a mass exodus of people out of the cities shortly before the cities are destroyed. I will explain why shortly, but what is the purpose of such an event? What will WW3 mean theologically?
THE MEANING
When I was in primary school I remember asking my teacher why Jesus needed to escape King Herod. What was the meaning of the story? I was surprised to be told, "It's just what happened. But a similar thing happened when Moses was born, so Jesus was fulfilling prophecy." I found the answer intriguing. It's in prophecy? Everything about Jesus has meaning, so the question remained.
Later I learnt that by escaping King Herod Jesus was foreshadowing the greater battle that he would fight and win for us at the cross. God does foreshadow important events. Was the King Herod moment a 'declaration of the end from the beginning' (Isaiah 46v10)? It would seem to make sense. But the life of Jesus, and may also be applied more broadly. How does it relate spiritually? What about the apocalyptic?
The meaning of the King Herod conflict goes deep. Spiritually it appears to relate to the struggle of repentance. The struggle of spiritual new birth is turning from sin and escaping the power of the devil. Establishing a relationship with God always requires repentance. But in Jesus' case we have a dilemma. Jesus was the perfect, sinless son of God. Jesus should not be seen escaping the dragon at birth because he never needed to repent from sin.
To resolve this problem, my suggestion is that Jesus acted for our benefit in an outwardly visible but purely symbolic way to demonstrate to us that the journey of salvation must begin with repentance.
Prophecy is lived out as a physical manifestation of the spiritual journey of salvation. Jesus lived out prophecy from birth to reveal the spiritual journey of salvation in the flesh. At God's appointed times he causes his people to give a 'lived testimony' which always begins with a miraculous moment of birth, and forms a journey that reveals the life of Jesus symbolically. In Scripture these manifestations are 'typological' revelations of Jesus, or 'apocalypses'. Therefore when the time comes for the end times birth we will have opportunity to reveal Jesus to the world symbolically, or typologically one last time. Again it will be absolutely miraculous.
Many of those who escape the destruction of nuclear war will demonstrate 'symbolic repentance'. This is a fascinating concept. The end times birth will be God's last great call to the people of the world for repentance, and his people respond in spirit and truth. We are promised success so that many lives may be saved miraculously, and many hearts may be opened to receive the gospel.
Our successful escape from the cities just prior to nuclear war will show the world that God is with us. By God's grace I am sure that the church will be able to help many others, even non-believers to escape as well. A "mixed multitude" came out of Egypt at the time of the exodus, both Israelites and Egyptians, (Exodus 12v38). The good we are able to do to help people will bring hope to many. There will be a great awakening, a world wide revival. A physical escape will be symbolic, but those who repent in spirit and truth will enjoy the latter rain with citizenship in heaven. The great last days outpouring of God's spirit will be like Pentecost.
SIGNS
The birth and escape of Jesus involved signs and prophecy. At biblical moments of birth God always forewarns his people through signs, dreams, and angels or messengers, and he helps us to prepare. We currently have many awesome signs, and we can trust God to give us success. Birth is a miracle for the family of God.
On a personal note, I've had some powerful "dreams and visions" -- there is a link to a brief description of these in the footer of the website. In my mind this prophecy totally hinges on the return of Trump as the King Herod figure of the end times birth. With many more signs clearly evident I firmly believe that Trump is destined to push the nuclear button causing a slaughter of the 'innocent', and letting loose the four horses of the apocalypse shortly after his 'second coming' to office. I understood it through a life changing vision in 2015, and then God gave me the sign of the dragon as confirmation.
The 'Biblical Bloodmoon' eclipses of 2014 and 2015 are believed to be the sign of the dragon of Revelation 12 as explained on the Cross2Victory page called, "Eclipse Reversal". Some undeniable evidence that Donald Trump is the 'King Herod' figure of the end times birth is listed on the "777 Signs" page of the Cross2Victory website. There are links in the "SIGNS" menu.
As a fallible person I acknowledge the possibility that I could be in error, but that is not to cast doubt on the message that I carry. It is to acknowledge my complete dependency on the righteousness of Christ, because as a sinner Jesus is my only hope for salvation. My prayer is firstly that I may be a faithful and obedient servant to Jesus, and secondly that I may love and serve my family. This mission has been difficult. Please pray for me and my loved ones.
THE TIMING
As for the timing, we can't predict when Jesus will return because that's not for us to know. We don't even know how long we have to live in this world. But birth is different, a woman always knows when a baby is coming because the signs are clear. The signs of the end times birth include some seven year signs, especially the Revelation 12 sign of 2017 which points strongly to the latter part of 2024 or around that time, or to the second coming of Trump.
Already some signs have been fulfilled right on time. I have listed some significant signs of birth that have been fulfilled during the last two years. In addition to seven year signs we have two year signs, one year signs, possibly some nine month signs, and then the final third month / 50 day / 40 day signs:
TWO YEAR SIGNS:
Two year signs are seen at biblical moments of birth:
— King Herod was trying to kill children two years and younger.
— Joseph was reconciled to his family two years into the famine.
— Arphaxad was born two years after Noah's flood.
— King Saul reigned for two years before war began against the Philistines.
— The recently observed signs of Revelation 12 appeared two years apart.
The two signs of Revelation 12, the dragon and the birth appeared in 2015 and 2017 respectfully, separated by more than two years. They are understood to be seven year signs, and staggered two years apart they point to events from 2022 to 2024. This strongly suggests that the war of Daniel 11 has indeed begun.
In February 2022 the Ukraine war began just after the seventh anniversary of the Eclipse Reversal / Biblical Blood Moon Tetrad confirming it as the sign of the dragon (Revelation 12v3). The Eclipse Reversal sign was called a 'scientific discovery' in 2015 when I met an astronomer at the University of Tasmania, and I nearly died of shock, no exaggeration. Then I found scientific evidence: the reversal pattern is caused by the 777 draconic month eclipse cycle known as the Inex. Russia began the war on time seven years later.
With war continuing to build up towards a climax the birth is expected sometime in the latter part of 2024 or around that time, with the second coming of Trump. But there more signs.
ONE YEAR SIGNS:
-- Abram was given a one year announcement for the birth if Isaac (Gen 18v10)
-- Several other children were born with a similar announcement: Ishmael (Gen 16), Samson (Judges 13), Samuel (1 Sam 1), the Shunammites son (2 Kings 4), Mahershalal-hash-baz (Isaiah , John the Baptist, and Jesus.
In light of the Revelation 12 sign of 2017 it was expected that a one year warning would occur in the latter part of 2023 or around that time. Hamas attacked Israel on the 7th October just two weeks after the sixth anniversary of the sign. The one year warning for the end times birth began the Middle East phase of the war of Daniel 11v36-44.
Another sign is found in the life of Abraham who's birth date appears to be in parallel with modern Israel. Abram was born in 1948 AM and he was called at the age of 75 in 2023 AM. AM stands for 'Anno Mundi' or 'Year of the World', and counts the years after creation in the forwards direction as opposed to BC which counts backwards. Abram's call in 2023 began a 'chiasm of birth pains' spanning Genesis 12-21 as explained on the Cross2Victory website.
NINE MONTH SIGNS ??
Today, on 23rd January 2024 we are exactly nine months out from the seventh anniversary of the Revelation 12 sign. A human pregnancy naturally takes about 9 months so it is significant that we are currently seeing the war between Israel and Hamas expanding to become a regional war. In the last week and a half America has begun responding to the Houthis attacks on shipping in the Red sea. Other Iranian proxy groups are increasing their attacks too. The events of Daniel 11v40 appear to be in progress.
In the coming months many countries are expected to become involved, but Jordan will be delivered (Daniel 11v41). As an American ally this mention of Jordan has long caused me to believe that America will be a large invading force in a war against Iran and their proxies. The Iranian nuclear program has been accelerating and the IAEA says they now have enough highly enriched uranium to build several weapons at very short notice, something intolerable to both Netanyahu and Biden.
THIRD MONTH / 50 DAY / 40 DAY SIGNS
-- Mary went with haste into the hill country to visit Elizabeth and her baby (John the Baptist) leapt in her womb.
-- Israel made the Exodus from Egypt and came to Mount Sinai in the beginning of the third month.
-- Fifty day countdown from Passover to Pentecost is a parallel of the Exodus to Mount Sinai. 'Number the days'.
-- Moses was three months old when he was placed in the little ark.
-- It rained for 40 days and 40 nights during Noah's flood.
-- Jonah had 40 days to warn Nineveh to repent, and they did!
The Ninevites repented, and similarly, a "mixed multitude" of both Israelites and Egyptians escaped from Egypt (Exodus 12v38). Therefore I'm sure we will be successful in helping many non-believers to escape the cities before nuclear war.
SPECULATIVE THOUGHTS on WHAT MIGHT TRIGGER THE EXODUS JUST PRIOR TO NUCLEAR WAR:
I have some speculative thoughts on what the third month / 50 day / 40 day sign might be that will trigger the exodus of millions of Christians and others from the cities, and the final rush to prepare for nuclear war. Having had plenty of time to think about these patterns, and through observing the present state of the world I'll put forward a hypothesis for what may happen possibly in the mid or latter part of 2024 that would awaken us to the imminence of nuclear war.
Due to the speculative nature of the following thoughts please use extra caution and pray for wisdom while considering the following scenario. I may be partially right, but real events will probably happen a little differently. For instance, if Trump comes in the usual way, through winning the election, the war won't happen until early 2025. There are some who would say that I'm probably wrong about the whole idea of the end times birth. However I remain convinced that the basic framework of this prophecy is true, and perhaps many of the details will prove to be true or at least somewhere close to the truth.
I share the following speculative thoughts to encourage prayer and a desire to seek God's wisdom on what to do to prepare for nuclear war so that we may be ready and able to care for each other and as many people as possible (Gal 6v10).
THE PROPOSED SCENARIO: A Possible WW3 trigger
I suppose that a nasty attack on Washington could remove Biden and Harris from office, triggering the line of succession. Trump currently has control over the Speaker of the House position as we saw recently when his supporter Mike Johson took the chair, just a few months ago. The House Speaker is second in line to the Presidency, so the Republicans could quickly arrange for Trump to be sent straight back into office.
As for the attack itself, North Korea is the most threatening enemy of America, and they have the technology to carry out such an attack. They have recently tested a drone submarine that is capable of launching a nuclear weapon. There is a possibility that something bad could happen to create the circumstances of Daniel 11v44. After an attack Trump would certainly take revenge, and as nuclear weapons begin to come into use people everywhere will know that a full scale nuclear war is highly likely. After about seven weeks of extreme tension between the world's nuclear powers Trump will push the nuclear button.
In a scenario like this, the surprise second coming of Trump would foreshadow the second coming of Jesus in that it could happen very suddenly, at a time we don't expect. Many Christians and even some non-believers will flee the cities before the button is pushed. Then will come fire from heaven.
"In the latter part of their reign, when rebels have become completely wicked, a fierce looking king, a master of intrigue will arise. He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does..." Daniel 8v23-24a (NIV).
"Reports from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will set out in a great rage to destroy and annihilate many." Daniel 11v44 (NIV).
The birth pains will be terrible. A third of the people of the world will die (Rev 9v15), but God promises a miraculous escape for his people, and the good that we are able to do to get others out of harms way, and to care for the survivors will bring people hope. There will be a difficult period while we wait for the nuclear winter to pass, but "afterwards I will pour out my Spirit..." Joel 2v28. The end times birth will bring a great awakening, a world wide revival and the latter rain.
Please test these thoughts carefully. While I don't claim to know how exactly the end times birth will happen the above scenario would fit the pattern of what could be expected. Please pray for wisdom.
“Do not despise prophecies, but test everything; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil." 1 Thessalonians 5v20-22.
Don't fear, trust God. At Biblical moments of birth we often see a fearful moment, but the message from God is clear. Don't be alarmed, such things must happen but the end is not yet. (Mat 24v6). We currently have a valuable opportunity to prepare so that many lives may be saved. I have put a few thoughts on preparing on a page called "Prepare" on the cross2victory website.
God is good and he works all things for the good of those who love him. A powerful ministry lies ahead for the final generation in the years and decades to follow. Jesus promises to be with us until the end. Finally there will be a brief moment of the cross, but at that time Jesus will return to save his people, and to judge his enemies. When he comes he will bring a whole new creation.
