The 2020’s will turn out to be a prophetically fateful decade

I am not going to make specific predictions for 2020 but I believed we have now arrived to the decade of the Rapture of the Bride of Christ. Shortly after the Rapture the tribulation period will occur followed by the fulfillment of all Bible prophecy related to the second coming of Jesus Christ. I think most of the end times prophecies will be fulfilled in the 2030’s although the four horsemen of Revelation probably will ride in the 2020’s.

I could be wrong about the tribulation starting in the 2020’s, but if I am, I don’t think it will prove to be of much comfort to those living through this decade. Because in that case, I think they will get to experience a world war more significant than any in history and then still have to experience the prophetic events that will be coming shortly thereafter.

The average American and European are totally unprepared for the events they are about to experience. Young people of Europe and America are much like the people living in the roaring twenty’s of a century ago. They were into luxurious living, partying, etc and were totally unaware of the soon coming great depression and second world war. Our 21st century roaring 20’s generation is likely to also experience a world war, an economic collapse and the worst civil wars that ever occurred on earth. People that have the means should seriously think about getting out of the big cities now before they find themselves living in bloody war zones from which there will be no escape.

The communist and Islamic takeovers already occurring to overthrow the Christian culture in the West makes it certain that any major war, grid down situation or economic collapse will bring about massive civil upheaval in western cities. Many living there simply will not be able to survive what is about to befall them. Those living in the cities will be fighting over ideology, food, water and turf in short order. It will be a Max Max situation until one group or another totally takes over. There also is no guarantee or even likelihood that civil people will gain control of the area where you live.

Even if Trump should be reelected, it is doubtful that the American Republic along with its Bible based Constitution can even survive its own domestic enemies for another decade. When the godless leftists regain control of the federal government, there will be civil war in America. If the left is hindered by American patriots, these domestic haters of our Republic already running the big cities, media, education, foundations and globalist corporations will still bring civil strife to our nation. The division between the God-fearing more rational rural people and the godless group think city zombies makes civil strife inevitable.

Do the leftist ideologues really believe that rural rational conservative people will allow Marxists to come take away our means of self-defense so that they can round up liberty lovers and imprison or kill those that will not conform? These Marxists need to get real! Just look at Virginia. The brainwashed group thinkers of the cities might have the numbers to pass unconstitutional gun laws there, but they will not have the means to enforce those laws in rural counties. It just is a matter of time before this turns violent. As the left gains control, you are going to see local militias forming in counties all over the nation in opposition to federal or state unconstitutional actions.

True Christianity is being outlawed all over the world. The time left for the gospel of grace seems to be about over. The remaining politically correct Christianity even in “Christian nations” is mostly just a worldly religion using Christian terms.

It looks to me like the world is receiving its last call. God is using the biggest rap star sinner in the world to reach those bound by drugs, porn and every kind of sin. Conversely, the biggest “Christian” “Holy Man” in the world (“the Pope”) is telling Christians not to convert people to Christ!? This clown Pope even said that those who hold on to the fundamentals of the Christian faith are haters and bigots. Time is short. There is now a false prophet leftist Pope in the Vatican priming the world for Marxism, globalism, extraterrestrials and a leader who will turn out to be the Antichrist.

The only thing restraining evil in the world is the gospel, and that increasingly is no longer allowed to be preached. There will be no point in the Church being on earth if the gospel of grace can no longer be preached. The proselytizing window is rapidly closing. Keep in mind, that the delay of the Lord’s coming is not so the Church can convert the world. The delay is only to take out a faithful bride for the coming King. The great harvest of souls happens after that to determine the people allowed to populate the Lord’s Kingdom on earth.

We should be aware of the signs of the times taking place that are totally unique to the last days generation. One sign is the rebirth of Israel. Bible prophecy could not be fulfilled before that happened. Another sign is that the stage is being set for the Gog war of Ezekiel 38 and 39 to be fulfilled. Russia, Turkey, Iran, Libya and the Sudan are now forming a military alliance to fulfill the prophesied army that comes against Israel. Take America out of the picture and there should be no question that the UN would vote to take back the lands acquired by Israel in previous wars. The Gog war is most likely a UN action led by Russia to accomplish that.

Still another great sign for our generation is the numerical prophecy about the kings of the East. China now has 100,000,000 surplus men who have little hope of having a normal family life. This happened in our time because of China’s one child policy. These surplus men have a timely purpose. They come with the 200 million man army from the East (Rev 9:15-16).

Revelation says this great army was prepared for an exact time. The one child policy started around 1980 and ended in 2015. Many of the early born surplus men will be too old to fight after the mid 2030’s. Many of the last born men will become old enough to fight by 2030. There also are a great number of surplus men in India and elsewhere in Asia because of their own birth control and their infanticide of girls. These surplus men are uniquely prepared for our time to make up the two-hundred million man prophetic army that kills a third of all men on earth.

This army out of the East is a late tribulation event, so if it is to occur before many of the surplus men get too old to fight, the seals of Revelation have to start to be opened by the late 2020’s. China is now arming to the teeth and building a silk road infrastructure to support such an eastern invasion.

Another sign of the time that we live in is that Iran says it will destroy Israel and they are developing the nuclear weapons to do so. Does anyone think this will end well or that this can go on for another decade without a nuclear conflict? Thanks to Iran, there are almost two hundred thousand missiles pointed at Israel from Iranian proxies. It is obvious that we are not going to get through this decade without major war breaking out in the Middle East.

Iran just this week used Iraqi Shiite proxies to attack the US embassy in Iraq. They found out that Obama and Hillary were no longer in charge. One hundred marines quickly arrived by helicopters to protect our embassy. Four thousand additional airborne troops may be on the way. Yesterday, President Trump ordered an air strike to kill Iran’s top general when this terrorist leader arrived at the Baghdad airport to possibly orchestrate another attack on US forces in Iraq. We shall soon see Iran’s response to Trump’s decisive action to take out their number one military leader.

Anything is now possible, but the sure bet is that time is growing short for Iran to decide to dismantle their nuclear weapons program. Trump and Israel will soon accomplish that job for them using air strikes if Iran chooses to escalate this further. Any additional action by Iran to extend its control over the fertile crescent could also spark a regional war between the Sunnis and the Shia. America on the other hand, may soon find out the extent of Iranian sleeper cells in our nation and our vulnerability to surprise attacks on our electrical grid. As I have said before, America as we know it will not survive any extended grid down situation.

The world is almost 300 trillion dollars in debt. This huge amount of debt can never be paid. There are only two possibilities. Nations will default on their debts, or the debtor nations will print money and monetize their debt. Both methods wipe out acquired wealth and promises made by their governments to their people will not be fulfilled. This will bring about rioting all over the world. When many nations are in perplexity (Lu 21:25) it is time for the Antichrist to appear with all the answers and the paperless digital 666 buy/sell system.

It is no coincidence of time that block chain technology and 5G make the digital 666 system of the Antichrist possible in the 2020’s. There are plans to put up over 50,000 low orbit satellites this decade to allow digital communications from any location on earth. When all the major financial institutions of the world go under, the new system will come into existence in short order. I don’t see how the bankers can kick the debt bomb down the road for even the rest of this decade. In a time of world conflict that won’t even be possible. There will have to be an economic reset followed by a new world economic system.

We are all under surveillance and are dependent on our communication devices. Thanks to Obama’s giving away US control of the Internet to the UN, it is now making plans for dictators, Islamist’s and globalists to control all of it. Soon nothing politically correct will even be seen or heard. The only truth or reality you will get to see or hear is the politically correct version. AI will control it all and there will likely be total control over everyone before the end of the 2020’s. China already has control over most of their population and India is right behind. Just add another decade for the elitist fascists and AI to gain control over the rest of the globe.

You may be getting the message that this is the last free decade before the second coming, but all this should not be depressing to true Christian believers. The Rapture comes prior to most end time prophetic events. In the 2020’s we should be looking up, because our redemption draws near.

The 2020’s will turn out to be a prophetically fateful decade — 30 Comments

  1. Well, it sure is looking like all the signs are rapidly approaching! Turkey signed agreements with Libya not long ago, and just yesterday, their “Congress” or whatever it’s called, voted to authorize troop deployments to Libya.

    Depending on Iran, Israel may be emboldened to preemptively take out one of Iran’s nuclear facilities, since they’ve long had plans on the books. Obama had stopped them from doing this in his second term. Iran will do something to set off a war, because they are insane. A sure sign they are controlled by the enemy. The Saudis are likely moving ahead with plans to acquire nuclear missiles from Pakistan, as was rumored a few years back. So, it won’t take much to set it all off.

    And sadly, America will fall, one way or another. The enemy within has corrupted too much of the population, and institutions. I do have an escape plan of sorts, with family & friends who live well outside of the major cities. With places even further out to fall back to.
    Unless, I find myself inside a blast zone? Then, I’ll see you all on the other side! The Lord be Praised!

  2. Hi David L,

    Egypt says they are not going to allow Turkey to do what they are planing in Libya, so we will see how that goes. It seems Turkey wants its Ottoman Empire back.

    It is interesting that Egypt is not mentioned as taking part in the Ezekiel war. All this hints at a wider war over who gets to control North Africa and the Middle East.

    I live deep in the Ozarks so am probably already in one of the most survival locations in America.

  3. Thanks Don another reminder that we are close. I sometimes wonder if we will even be here for the next election. Anyway, have a happy new year, should we make it. There is a lot of stuff happening and it seems there is more every day. The death of the Iranian general yesterday, I believe was needed and long overdue, but could easily set of a chain of events resulting in the Elam prophecy fulfillment too. I think that neither side wants a big fight but WW1 started when no side really wanted an all out war and things quickly escalated. Things seem so fragile that a repeat could happen over the next issue if not this one.

  4. Last week at my local YMCA the woman at the check in counter was told she could not have her bible on her desk. Today she was told she cannot read the Bible in the back room during an unpaid break. I never thought that would happen at the Y.

    I always thought Trump would be the last elected president before the rapture. I could see Trump and Pence and much of their admin disappearing and leaving the US in turmoil. Then an unelected godless leftist takes control. Just my two cents.

  5. Saying that each passing year is a year closer to end times is always foolish because of course it is… but it seems to me that the events of each year are more portentous and potent than the year before.

    Good article Don… it enumerates the present calamitous attitudes and events that are to come.

  6. We know the Gog/Magog war is soon, but seeing that any action from those characters would trigger a response from the Trump Administration, which means something, has to either distract us or prevent us from interfering. To me, that is either some kind of civil war, economic collapse, or the Rapture. Great article, especially the reminder that the great army from the east that they were prepared for a specific time.

  7. WOW – LOL What a great article Don 🙂

    I was telling my family yesterday that the Rapture may be much closer than we think. Currently in the world order we thankfully have Trump who seems to mean business with Iran etc. As Brother Pete noted above, take America out of the equation and we have a Magog scenario taking place in short order.
    Very astute point on China and the age of Chinese fighting servicemen peaking by 2030. That should be a major warning sign to Christians. I also was telling my parents that this seems to be the last decade – an exciting thought.

    Very interesting to see what comes of a response from Iran – my thinking is an asymmetrical series of hits, and what scares me is the tit for tat escalation that it may birth. I do think Trump did the right thing, something needed long ago, it is just a bad situation overall with repercussions any way you look at it.

  8. I like how that sounds

    “I believed we have now arrived to the decade of the Rapture of the Bride of Christ.”

    I’m going to start saying it that way but to shorten it I’ll say it this way..

    This will be the decade of the rapture. That will be a good way to get people to ask what do I mean by that then I can explain it.

    Very good article. Thank you.

  9. Since the Iranian regime is to unite with Russia and company for the Gog/Magog war, I do not see how Iran can retaliate against the USA and survive to play their part in the Ezekiel 38 prophecy. This leads me to believe that we will NOT see Iran, or its proxies strike any American targets. I did receive divine revelation as to why our wives fill our house with plants, they feel guilty for getting us kicked out of the Garden of Eden!

  10. With a 2030’s Great Tribulation, rudimentary math (using the overlapping 7 year periods) on my part has the first seal occurring within a few years, with “removal of the America” and Harpazo happening within short order (at this juncture, I put the latter before the former, if not instigating the former).

    I recall a very recent post on the Eschatology Today blogspot that put the rapture within the next couple years (which lines up with the above).

  11. I find China’s actions of late to be quite interesting. Military maneuvers with Russia and Iran, massive investment into Africa with self sustainable mega cities. Don, could China help fulfill some of the Gog prophecy as well? They sure have the numbers. Could the Gog war actually be a part of Armageddon itself? Thanks for all you do.

  12. Hi Steve,

    I think China and the kings of the east would be mentioned if they were a major player coming with Gog. Apparently they are bound and they come later. The kings of the East is not even part of Armageddon, they come against the forces of the Antichrist. Armageddon is all nations being deceived by the Antichrist and False Prophet to oppose the Lord at the actual second coming.

  13. When are the 2 prophets going to show up in Isreal? After the rapture/before?

  14. HI Jeremy,

    They will appear 3.5 years before The Antichrist kills them. Since I believe in a pretribulation Rapture I believe they would show up after the Rapture.

  15. I believe you are right on target. And most true believer are able to discern the season we are in. I also believe the AI thing is a huge issue. I just don’t know how it comes into play with time so short. And this a little off subject but I drive for a living I don’t suppose their is anyway to get your commentary on audio?

  16. if Jesus died at the end of the 4th day then that really leaves very little room for guessing the year of His return. The 2nd coming would have to be before the start of the 7th day. The millennium would have to begin by the early 2030s or the 7000 year theory is false.

  17. Hi Jim,

    That might not necessarily make the 7000 theory false, I do not believe this, but some think the forth day did not end until the destruction of the Temple.

  18. Amazing, when our LORD Jesus uttered the words in Matthew 24 he was zooming past 1800+ years of history; right up and until the Jews would return to Israel in 1948, those who were there and personally heard Him were NOT supposed to get it, Jesus knew He was talking to the final generation and we would understand, their job was ‘to write it down’ just like Daniel who was told to just ‘write it down’ and seal the book; Matthew 24 is for the final generation of Jews and for the Church who is like the 5 Virgins ?

  19. Hi Joe,

    If that was a question, the Church is not the five virgins. The brides maids are not the bride. The Church has oil in their lamp by nature. Only spiritually born members in the body of Christ make up the Church.

  20. Don,

    I can’t imagine the reasoning behind that, it doesn’t make much sense to me either. It’s pretty clear we are told we are in the last days (last 3 days of the week) way before the temple was destroyed. Plus the 2030s fit in the eschatological timeline much better. The only way I see it being pushed back a few years is if the early 2030s is when the last 7 year’s begins instead of ends.

  21. Don, I agree with you. In the parable of the 10 virgins, they are not the bride. Jesus is speaking about His second coming. The bride is already raptured. These must be the tribulation saints. And yes, it clearly states they are bridesmaids. The church is the Bride of Christ. Also, in my opinion, if you are truly a child of God, you can’t fall away and be lost. I believe in OSAS. Because the rapture has happened, the church age (or dispensation) is over and things have reverted back to keeping the law in order to be saved.

  22. Hi Don thanks for posting this article. I am a Christian in my late 20’s and I want to put God first in every area of life. I also love America and I want it to survive. In light of this, I want to ask your opinion on something: I know that there is a lot of corruption in this country and the rest of the world is even worse in certain ways. In Genesis 18 God told Abraham that he would save Sodom if even 10 righteous people could be found there. In spite of the sin in this country I know that there are still a lot of good people in the nation. I know that the Tribulation will be far worse than any other period in human history. I also know that the Rapture happens before this. People talk about America being destroyed by Russia, China, Islamic terrorists or other enemies. The nation has done good things like support Israel, keep evil empires in check, and promote the spread of the Gospel. Here is my question: Is there a possibility that God could show mercy and permit America to survive the Tribulation? I would like for my country to still exist when Christ sets up his kingdom if he wills it. Either way, I know that the Lord is just and in control. God bless you!

  23. Hi Zach,

    I don’t think God is keeping lists of nation’s good or bad past deeds to determine nations that survive the tribulation.
    There will be many people that hear the message in the tribulation and survive the tribulation.

    Even so, the Bible says all nations follow the Antichrist in a rebellion near Jerusalem against the Lord’s coming. The Bible also says that all the cities of the nations will fall. So although most nations will survive the tribulation none of them will survive as the dominate world power.

    Every nation will have people that survive the tribulation and those led to their destruction. My concern is not that America survives the tribulation. My concern is that we even survive as a great nation until that great trial takes place on earth.
