Reflections on shabat, June 5, 2026

 

  Images: From the left, 1) Archangel Michael and his angels fight against Satan and his angels in heaven. 2) Satan and his angels are defeated and cast down to earth. 3) During the end times, Satan, through his chosen charismatic leader, deceives all those people who do not accept faith in Adonai Yeshua, so that they can be saved. 4) Satan's false prophet and his anointed Beast are defeated and, after their rampage, are cast into hell. Rev. 19:19-20. Satan is cast there after his 1,000-year imprisonment after inciting the nations to war against Israel in Jerusalem. Rev. 20:7-10. Death and Hades are also cast there, as well as all those human souls whose names are not found in the Book of Life. Rev. 20:13-15


Let's reread the Bible verses in the picture:

>>20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Yehowah shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.<<  Isaiah 24:20-21

>>7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the Dragon; and the Dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great Dragon was cast out, that old Serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.<< Rev. 12:7-9

>>3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called Elohim, or that is worshipped; so that he as Elohim sits in the temple of Elohim, shewing himself that he is Yehowah.<< 2 Thess. 2:3-4

  From those Bible passages it becomes clear that Yehowah sees when the scale of humanity's sins is so great and that those predestined for salvation have already been sealed for heaven. Then he will fulfill his revelation proclamed through the OT prophets, Yeshua, the Book of Revelation and the apostle Paul. Events will inevitably move towards their end.

  As can be seen from the picture and its text, a war will first break out in heaven. As a result, Satan and his angels will be cast down to earth. He will have great hatred for the believers here, avenging him when Yeshua HaMashiach, the Son of the Jewish Mary, defeated him when he died on the cross. That is why he especially hates Israel.

  Satan will choose a Superstate suitable for his task, formed from nations, which will probably be an anti-Christian and anti-Zionist federation. I believe it will be the EU, which is now preparing itself for a military alliance and a Federal State in addition to the former economic union. The so-called 'Second Beast', i.e. the USA, has demanded that the EU's NATO members prepare for a great war. We notice this development in Revelation 13, where the 'First Beast' is the EU.

  We also notice in Revelation that the 'First Beast' and the 'Second Beast' also have a human ruler. They are Satan's chosen leaders for the great war against Yehowah and the Lamb and, in connection with it, against all the saints of the New Covenant. This war precedes the 1000-year Kingdom of the Messiah and the saints.


What time are we living in now?

  Everyone who believes in Adonai Yeshua and knows their Bible well clearly sees that the number of sins of the nations has already been fulfilled for all nations. We should use Sodom and Gomorrah as a point of comparison here, because according to the NT they are set as a warning to those who still live ungodly. 2 Peter 2:6

  The reasons why punishments like Sodom and Gomorrah have not yet been poured out upon the nations, even though it has been appropriate for years, are (at least) the following:

A) The message of salvation has not yet been proclaimed to all nations, as Yeshua requires.

B) Because of the above, it has not yet been possible to seal all those chosen for salvation.

C) The aforementioned EU-Federal State has not yet been formed and properly strengthened.

D) The manifestation of the Son of Perdition is being withheld by the Holy Spirit and the saints of Adonai Yeshua.

  However, the signs of the times indicate that the fulfillment of all four points is already near. It is interesting to note the prophecy of Adonai Yeshua concerning his manifestation and return to earth. In addition to the previous points, he also says that the people of Israel must first be gathered to Eretz Israel *). We read Matt. 24:26-34
*) Matt. 24:15-25, which I will not quote here.

>>26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise you, when you shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. <<

What generation was Yeshua referring to?

  He was referring to the generation during which all the signs he prophesied would be fulfilled. It is worth emphasizing in this context that the rapture of the so-called 'wise virgins' will occur before Adonai Yeshua returns to earth! Adonai Yeshua called Paul to be a teacher and authorized him to tell us the following: 1 Thess. 4:15-17

>>15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Adonai, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Adonai shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Adonai himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of Elohim: and the dead in HaMashiach shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Adonai in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Adonai.<<

  We can conclude from the teachings of Adonai Yeshua that this rapture of the 'Wise Virgins' will take place even before Adonai Yeshua appears to all nations. When he returns to earth, he will step onto the Mount of Olives, but during the rapture, which will take place before that, the 'Wise Virgins' will be caught up in the clouds to meet Adonai in the clouds of heaven. We read: Matt. 24:38-42

>>38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for you know not what hour your Adonai does come.<<

  It is good to ask, to what time will all those who are not raptured be left? They will be left in the next terrible time of great tribulation and persecution, the like of which has never been on earth before and which, according to the promise of Adonai Yeshua, will never come again! We read Rev. 12:10-13

>>10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our Elohim, and the power of his HaMashiach: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our Elohim day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens, and you that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time.

13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.<<

  Since such a terrible time is perhaps coming to the earth soon, it is very wise for the reader of this to give his life to Adonai Yeshua today at the latest!

Now is the acceptable time, now is the day of salvation!
