The “Holy” Father now supports GAY RIGHTS openly and intentionally! We’re not talking about a casual “Who am I to judge?” type of remark, but an official letter (included below) and a meeting! You would never guess where this grand “coming out of the closet” event will take place!!! This is too big of a coming out to do in just any insignificant country, to be sure.
If he wants to get attention, he picked the right place by selecting the most densely Catholic nation in the most densely Catholic region of the world: Paraguay, South America. That puts him in the middle of a passionate fray, because Paraguayans are notoriously anti-gay, but they also love Francis! That’s a situation about as explosive as throwing a lit match into a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen. It’s also diabolically ingenious, for where else would he be loyally loved enough to offset the moral disgust evoked by the idea of a pontiff fighting to legitimatize homosexuality?
The fact is, Paraguay is arguably the toughest territory to tackle in terms of the gay rights movement. You don’t have to search to find out what the Paraguayan attitude is like toward homosexuality. Horacio Cartes, now President of Paraguay, exemplified the nation’s general attitude while running for the office he now holds:
ASUNCIÓN, Paraguay [Apr. 16, 2013] — Horacio Cartes, the tobacco magnate and front-runner for months in Paraguay’s presidential election on Sunday, has set off a fierce controversy here after publicly comparing gay people to “monkeys” and likening the support of same-sex marriage to believing in “the end of the world.”[1]
If you could hear the monkeys that inhabit the Paraguayan countryside, you might understand his remark—but there is another creature that makes an even better comparison: the locust, mentioned in the Bible. Regardless that the monkey comparison fell a little short of the biblical symbolism, Cartes more than made up for it with his unwittingly prophetic likening of the support of same-sex marriage to the end of the world. Paraguay is shaping up to be the last place on the planet that still considers sodomy equivalent to the end of the world. In that sense, it is not surprising that:
The country does not have any law regulating civil unions between people of the same sex, and organizations advocating human rights such as Amnesty International, criticize that it is the only state in the region that does not have a law against all forms of discrimination.[2]
As you can see, Paraguay falls far short of defending human rights, which is probably a factor that led U.N. Secretary Ban Ki-moon to visit the country to promote the sustainable development goals (for world security) earlier this year.[3] No U.N. representatives had visited Paraguay for about 60 years prior to that, and in this one year, the country plays host to both the U.N. and the pope! It is hard to imagine that Paraguayans would tolerate gays just for the sake of Mr. Ban Ki-moon, which means the only path to success would be for Papa Francisco to take the gay bull by the horns, being as careful as possible not to soil his white clothes, of course. There was probably no other way to achieve Paraguayan (and thus world-wide) support for human rights.
Do you grasp the meaning here? The insignificant little land-locked country of Paraguay represents the last foothold which is keeping the world from unitedly jumping into moral free-fall! It is the biggest roadblock to the human rights (for world peace) agenda. Canada already allows same-sex marriage. Mexico just fell. The U.S. will fall any day now. Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay already allow same-sex marriage. Chile recognizes same-sex unions. Soon there will be same-sex marriage across the Americas.
Everywhere are seen wrecks of humanity, broken-down family altars, ruined homes. There is a strange abandonment of principle, the standard of morality is lowered, and the earth is fast becoming a Sodom. The practices which brought the judgment of God upon the antediluvian world, and which caused Sodom to be destroyed by fire, are fast increasing. We are nearing the end, when the earth is to be purified by fire. {GW 125.3}[4]
With Paraguay shaping up to be the last bastion defending the biblical institution of marriage, you can see why God chose Paraguay to host His voice on earth, like the sound of many waters, as it is described in Revelation as well as in the Old Testament. The pope’s actions here testify to the crucial role that this country must play in this last drama of earth’s history.
The Social Compact Theory of Civil Government
I hope you are beginning to see the importance of this topic, but so far we have only broached the surface! The pope’s letter to the SOMOSGAY (WE ARE GAY) organization[5] opens with a decisive quote from Evangelii Gaudium (his apostolic exhortation) that includes key language. Here is the full letter translated to English (emphasis mine):
“OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION” CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY
RECTORATE
Asunción, June 4, 2015.
Mr. Simon Cazal
Executive Director
SOMOSGAY
Dear Sirs:
“In a culture which privileges dialogue as a form of encounter, it is time to devise a means for building consensus and agreement while seeking the goal of a just, responsive and inclusive society. The principal author, the historic subject of this process, is the people as a whole and their culture, and not a single class, minority, group or elite. We do not need plans drawn up by a few for the few, or an enlightened or outspoken minority which claims to speak for everyone. It is about agreeing to live together, a social and cultural pact.” (1)
Pope Francis visits Paraguay as “Messenger of Joy and Peace” and wants to share this message in the “Encounter with the Paraguayan Society for a Culture of Trust” since happiness and peace are based on mutual trust.
The Paraguayan Episcopal Conference, through the Organizing Commission of the Visit of His Holiness Pope Francis, recognizes the high impact of your organization in Paraguayan society. For that reason, it invites one (1) representative from the same to participate in this meeting to be held in the “León Condou” stadium (Marcelino Noutz near Spain Avenue - Asunción), on Saturday, July 11. The guest will access the stadium between 13:00 and 14:30. We enclose the registration form, which must be returned by this means within three days after receipt of this notice. The invitation is personal and non-transferable and must be picked up from the Metropolitan Seminary (Av. Kubitschek and Azara 661) on or after July 1.
We count on the presence of a representative of your organization as a contribution to help this meeting strengthen the development of a culture of trust that allows all Paraguayans to build a better country.
Receive our warm greetings and blessing in the peace of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Pbro. Dr. Narciso Velázquez Ferreira
Rector – “Our Lady of the Assumption” Catholic University...
(1) Pope Francis, in the Apostolic Exhortation “Evangelii Gaudium”, on the proclamation of the Gospel in today’s world.
Through his own volition, “Pope Francis...wants” this meeting. There has never been anything like this until now. When LGBT Catholics approached Francis before, his response was rather cold, just offering them a seat at his public address without any recognition.[6]
The purpose of this meeting is explained in his apostolic exhortation. He quotes very specific terms to express what he wants. Reader, do you know what “a social and cultural pact” is? Do you understand what that paragraph from Evangelii Gaudium is talking about? It is talking about the social compact theory of civil government, which has to do with the foundation of all civilization.
Social contract theory, nearly as old as philosophy itself, is the view that persons’ moral and/or political obligations are dependent upon a contract or agreement [a social pact] among them to form the society in which they live.[7]
The Pilgrim Fathers who founded the United States of America, for example, entered into such a pact before they ever stepped foot on the shores of the New World, declaring:
...We...do by these presents, solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God and one another, covenant and combine ourselves together into a civil body politick, for our better ordering and preservation, and furtherance of the ends aforesaid: and by virtue hereof do enact, constitute, and frame such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions, and officers, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the colony; unto which we promise all due submission and obedience.
The U.S. already has a social pact that has become crystalized in its founding documents, and so does Paraguay and virtually every other country in the world... So what “social and cultural pact” is Pope Francis calling for? Yes, of course it is the New World Order: a new social and cultural pact to govern everyone on the entire planet. That’s not news. His apostolic exhortation is addressed to the whole world, not just to Paraguay—but why is this key paragraph quoted in his letter to the homosexual community? That is partly explained by the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, in the previously cited article about social contract theory. The basic criticism of social contract theory is that it does not remove the male-female hierarchy of society:
More recently, philosophers from different perspectives have offered new criticisms of social contract theory. In particular, feminists and race-conscious philosophers have argued that social contract theory is at least an incomplete picture of our moral and political lives, and may in fact camouflage some of the ways in which the contract is itself parasitical upon the subjugations of classes of persons.
In layman’s terms, the critics of social contract theory say that it is incomplete because it does not address the root cause of discrimination and inequality, as the liberal philosophers see it, especially in regard to gender. Simply put: men can still rule over women.
Are you starting to get the big picture? Do you at least see that the pope’s meeting in Paraguay has very deep implications that affect the whole world? Do you see that God’s design for marriage is at the core of the controversy? That is why statements like this are appearing:
Top Vatican adviser Jeffrey Sachs says that when Pope Francis visits the United States in September, he will directly challenge the “American idea” of God-given rights embodied in the Declaration of Independence.[8]
There is still more to unpack in regard to social contract theory, but let us come back to that point later. It should already be abundantly clear that same-sex marriage is definitely not a “God-given” right.
A Clear “Thus Saith the Lord”
Pope Francis is showing his true colors by urging implementation of anti-discrimination laws to protect LGBT persons. While the pope is not openly promoting the LGBT lifestyle, he is effectively doing it by prohibiting anyone—even in his own church—from speaking against it, thus giving room for the LGBT movement to thrive. This exposes him for the devil he is, masquerading as an angel of light.
The pope’s own stance has not changed since his famous “Who am I to judge?” remark, however. The difference today is that he is urging legislation aimed at forcing people not to judge, which in essence makes it illegal to teach the Bible, since the Bible plainly states (or judges) that the LGBT lifestyle is an abomination to God. The thrust in Paraguay is not just about discrimination at a secular or business level; it is hoped to “de-legitimatize homophobic speech” in Paraguayan society. That would include teaching the Bible, which is exactly what we do in our articles.
The Bible does not mince words on the subject of homosexuality. The topic is addressed in both the Old and New Testaments:
Thou [man] shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith [bestiality]: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion [mixing of species]. Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you [he did it before; he’ll do it again]: And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants. (Leviticus 18:22-25)[9]
The above passage equates homosexuality and bestiality as abomination to God, and reminds us that God casts out whole nations for these defiling sins. This passage also contains the very first use of the word “vomit” in Scripture, depicting that these sins are so disgustingly repulsive that the inanimate land itself will vomit out its inhabitants. Note the expression of “vomiting” out the inhabitants, because we will see that term again.
What does it look like when the earth vomits or spews? Geysers and volcanoes are clear examples of the earth spewing. Some researchers have found that in certain circumstances, an earthquake can trigger the spewing of burning sulfur high into the air, which then rains back down upon the land. That has been postulated as the scenario that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities of the plain,[10] where chunks of flammable sulfur are still found today.[11]
In previous articles, we’ve shown how trumpet after trumpet has been sounding on the exact dates that the Clock of God in Orion has prophesied.[12] Nary has a word of those scriptures gone unfulfilled, yet few have paid attention to the warnings because they have been mingled with grace, still outstretched to nations teetering into legalized homosexuality. We will summarize the trumpets again in the next section of this article, and you will see that the grace is about to end.
One reason the trumpet warnings have been held back is that the cup of iniquity has not yet become full.[13] God pours out his wrath in destructive judgments upon a people when they have reached the full measure of their iniquity. It was when homosexuality had spread to every quarter[14] of Sodom that the Lord destroyed it. That will be the case for the U.S. at the end of June, when the Supreme Court will issue its ruling on the case of same-sex marriage, effectively legalizing it nation-wide for the first time.
One particular denominated people will also fill the cup of their iniquity very soon thereafter: namely the Seventh-day Adventist Church, which is preparing to vote on whether or not to allow women to lead the church. Just like how Paraguay is shaping up to be the last bastion for God against homosexuality, the SDA Church is the last Protestant bastion for God against women ruling men. That “last bastion” status puts them in the limelight. In fact, if you recognize that we are participating in the judgment of the living, it puts them at the focal point of the entire on-looking universe! Those are a lot of eyes to be accountable to.[15]
When God set the stars of Orion in their places, He foreknew that there would be a Seventh-day Adventist Church. He foreknew the whole history of that church. He foreknew that if they would consistently reject His love, then on a specific day, that church would vote away the divine order of marriage. He positioned the stars to indicate the very date—July 8, 2015. No human being can do that!
We studied the trumpet cycle for the first time on January 31, 2014. Do you think that we arbitrarily “guessed” how to align the clock so that the sixth trumpet would point to July 8, 2015? How could we have known that the GC Session would plan their most important vote on that date? GOD SET THE DATE, because He foreknew it. Nothing is hidden from God, and He reveals His secrets to those whom He chooses.
When the General Conference of the SDA Church in Session votes to dismantle the marriage institution on that day, they will have filled the cup of their apostasy to the full. Then, through the Carmel Challenge on July 8, at the sound of the sixth trumpet, the Lord will show whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it.[16] We will review the trumpet warnings shortly, but first let’s draw a connection:
The time of God’s destructive judgments is the time of mercy for those who have no opportunity to learn what is truth.—Letter 103, 1903. {LDE 182.2}[17]
The trumpets are destructive warnings mingled with mercy, but when God begins to destroy a denominated people, the rest of the world should urgently seek the truth, which they had no opportunity to learn because of the human instrumentalities that blocked it from them. It will not be long thereafter—just three and a half months—till He will pour out His wrath upon the whole world, because the sin of sodomy will have become universal.
The Seven Trumpets in Review
Too often we are asked, “What about the trumpets? Why didn’t anything happen?” Let me open your eyes in the following sections!
Here is a chart summarizing the seven trumpets:
The dates of the trumpets are calculated by “unrolling” the Orion clock wheel across a period of 624 days, the duration found in Shadows of the Sacrifices, Part III.
Some overall principles should be kept in mind. The trumpets are cumulative; each trumpet adds to the previous trumpets. That means what started in the first trumpet is still going on (and increasing). The trumpets do not end, they swell...
The trumpets have not seemed to swell because there were four commands to “Hold!” the trumpets. That is explained in detail in the Mystery of Ezekiel. Those holds correspond to four individual trumpets. We initially thought that the holds applied to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th, trumpets, but now it is apparent in retrospect that they actually applied to trumpets 1 through 4. The new understanding harmonizes nicely with the biblical distinction between the first four vs. the last three, as explored in Babylon Is Fallen! – Part I under the heading “Categorizing the Seals and Trumpets.” It makes sense that the four trumpets which were held are not labeled as “woe” trumpets, whereas the three unrestrained trumpets are.
The four trumpet angels that were bound (or held) are let loose at a specific time: namely at the sixth trumpet. The text explicitly says that they should be loosed at the appointed hour, month, day, and year. That amounts to 391 days from the date when the pope’s agenda was published by La Vanguardia, June 12, 2014, which shows how pivotal the sixth trumpet is, as we explored in the Last Call.
In the following subsections, we will see that the events which started in the first four trumpets were held, but are now resurging into the news headlines as the sixth trumpet quickly approaches!
The First Trumpet, beginning Feb. 1, 2014
The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. (Revelation 8:7)
The hail and fire mingled with blood symbolized the eruption of Mt. Sinabung, which happened on the exact date of the first trumpet and killed a number of people. The news channels at that time were full of anxious reports about the ring of fire awakening, but (Hold!) the situation seemed to stabilize.
What is happening now:
The news channels today are full of imminent warnings:
-
June 17, The Weather Channel: Indonesia’s Mount Sinabung Could Be on Verge of Violent Eruption, Experts Say
-
June 17, TIME: This Indonesian Volcano Could Be About to Blow, Authorities fear a major eruption at Mount Sinabung
Mt. Sinabung was quiet for some 400 years until 2010, when the Orion Message began. Then it began killing exactly on the first trumpet date, and now as the Hold! is just about to be released at the sixth trumpet, it is preparing for a “major violent eruption!”
Mt. Sinabung is just the sentinel, but the entire Ring of Fire is a resurging concern right now:
-
June 17, Weekly Observer: Asian Volcano: Pacific Ring of Fire Heats Up Again
-
May 15, InfoWars: 40 Volcanoes Are Erupting Right Now, And 34 Of Them Are Along The Ring Of Fire
Watch out! The trumpet warning is swelling!
The Second Trumpet, beginning Apr. 12, 2014
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. (Revelation 8:8-9)
The burnt up green grass of the first trumpet symbolized Crimea’s annexation by Russia toward the end of the first trumpet. The situation escalated, resulting in the first deaths in eastern Ukraine, exactly on the first day of the second trumpet. (See Trumpets with a Certain Sound for more details.) It was a crisis of great concern covered extensively in the news, and it drew responses from many countries, but (Hold!) the crisis ceased its escalation.
What is happening now:
-
June 17, Reuters: Putin says Russia beefing up nuclear arsenal, NATO denounces ‘saber-rattling’
-
June 15, International Business Times: Russia’s ‘Microwave Gun’ Can Disable Drones, Warheads Up To 6 Miles Away, Official Says
During this trumpet, we also saw the pope’s video appeal to Charismatic leaders to re-unite with Rome. For a time, the news was full of reports of top megachurch leaders holding ecumenical meetings with the pope, then things got quiet again.
What has been happening to date:
-
June 13, Sputnik: Establishing Bridges: Pope Suggests Unified Easter Date for All Christians
-
May 7, ZENIT: Pope Francis: Ecumenical Movement Is Taking Great Steps Toward Reconciliation, Peace
The second trumpet had a lot going on. The terrible effects of the Fukushima disaster reached California shores, as sad reports of the dead ocean were circulated.
The trumpet warning is only getting louder:
-
June 15, Collective Evolution: Fukushima: Almost Five Years Later And Look At What’s STILL Happening
-
May 21, Natural News: Pacific Ocean off California coast turning into desert-like dead zone
-
April 11, All News Pipeline: Mysterious Blob In Pacific Ocean Is Fukushima Death And It’s Coming For Us All!
-
Feb. 6, Natural Society: 6000% Increase in Cancer Rates at Fukushima Site Hushed up by international governments
The last area of concern in the second trumpet was the anxiety in the world financial stock markets, with the European Central Bank playing a prominent role. Greece suddenly became a very hot topic because of its inability to repay its debt to the International Monetary Fund. The crisis was held back, but the financial situation was never fully resolved.
What is suddenly happening again today:
-
June 17, The Guardian: Greek crisis: Athens protesters call for end to austerity - live updates
-
June 16, The Globe and Mail: Greek PM tears into lenders, euro zone prepares for ‘Grexit’
Watch out! The angel is about to be let loose, and the warning is swelling!
The Third Trumpet, beginning Oct. 12, 2014
And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. (Revelation 8:10-11)
The date of the third trumpet centered on the Catholic Synod on the Family and the Adventist Annual Council. (Read Babylon Is Fallen! – Part I for details.) God points to those two churches (and those two meetings). It’s not that other churches don’t matter, but those two churches represent the beginning and end of Christianity, and therefore they are especially distinguished in prophecy.
Into the third trumpet, ISIS threats and attacks began to rise and the pope called for the leaders of the world’s major religions to unite against extremism. After the pope’s Istanbul trip and the agreement of cooperation was signed, (Hold!) the rhetoric from ISIS seemed to slow down. Surely you can see the pattern of how each trumpet was held back, until we approach the releasing of the angels in the sixth trumpet...
What is happening today:
-
June 17, Breitbart: ISIS Releases New Video of Child Jihadis Training for War
-
June 5, Catholic Sun: ‘John 17’ unites Catholics and Protestants for day of prayer
-
May 20, Adventist Review: Your Guide to the GC Session Agenda
Indeed, the call for unity coming from the Catholic Church has resurged with an intensity of conviction that has the pope calling for preparation for martyrdom!
On the Adventist front, the recommendations that were made at the Annual Council are now coming up before the General Conference Session. The issue of women in leadership has brought the church to a point of crisis. The sixth trumpet itself points to the very date when the vote will be taken for the issue of women’s ordination in the church. This is the culminating point of our modern Elijah’s Challenge: Fire at Mount Carmel
Remember, the sixth trumpet date was marked in the stars before the world was created. How can it be that the trumpets have had a fulfillment on the very day which also matched every detail of the biblical texts and in addition to that, the trumpet warnings have resurged just when the appointed time of the sixth trumpet is approaching, where the text says to let the angels loose? How much evidence do you want God to give you before you join us in spreading the warning to the world?
The Fourth Trumpet, beginning Jan. 1, 2015
And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! (Revelation 8:12-13)
Exactly on the marked date, the sun (Christianity) was darkened by a formerly Adventist Pastor by the name of Ryan Bell, whose year-long experiment with atheism concluded with his choice to remain atheist. His apostasy from God sent shockwaves throughout the religious world, not just within Adventism. One of his biggest contentions with the church administration prior to his resignation was putting homosexuals in leadership! (For more details, please see Babylon Is Fallen! – Part II.)
While Ryan Bell was drawing attention, the church was working hard to hush-up a “compelling” series of sermons about the Godhead, which was delivered to the SDA Church by Pastor Stephen Bohr at GYC 2014. His series began exactly on January 1, 2015, the beginning date for the trumpet, and the same date when Ryan Bell finalized his decision to reject God. One sermon in the series (Jan. 2) was particularly relevant to the topic of women’s ordination, but he did not address the taboo subject directly. Nevertheless, there were enough obvious implications to solicit a “clarification” the following night (Jan. 3), as one website revealed in a careful statement they found necessary to write to defend why they featured that sermon.
All of that defensiveness shows the efforts that the church leadership has been putting forth to stifle the truth. Those are clear examples of how the last little flicker of light within the church was darkened in the fourth trumpet. Stephen Bohr’s sermon within the church was darkened (in relation to women’s ordination), while Ryan Bell darkened the light shining outside the church (in relation to the LGBT issue). What a dark fulfillment of prophecy!
What is happening today:
-
June 5, Secrets Unsealed: Stephen Bohr - A Retirement Explanation - YouTube
We will unpack Stephen Bohr’s retirement announcement thoroughly in the next section, but the immediate point is that the waves that Stephen Bohr started to make in the fourth trumpet, he is making now through that announcement. He is leaving the payroll of the General Conference after having pastored in Fresno, California for over 18 years, and now he will stand alone, working for his own ministry, Secrets Unsealed.
All of the first four trumpets have been fulfilled, yet they were held back till the time appointed in the sixth trumpet, prepared for an hour, a day, a month, and a year! Do you see how we are standing in front of a tsunami of events coming all at once, because the four angels were bound (held) until the appointed time? The evidence is piling up to the size of a mountain!
What did Jesus say about a mountain, the sea, and faith?
Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. (Matthew 21:21)
Pastor Stephen Bohr’s “Retirement”
Before we unpack all that Stephen Bohr’s retirement entails, we should understand the big picture of the judgment of the living, which is partly described in Ezekiel 9—a chapter which we are strongly advised to study.
The judgment of Ezekiel 9 began with the elders of the house of God,[18] or in other words with those nearest to Him. In light of the change of venue of the court, we recognized when judgment began here in Paraguay with our group. As publishers of the message of the fourth angel, we are “nearest” to God. Light comes from the throne of God, and since we are bringing the light to you, we must stand closer to the throne—the logic is simple.
Now, wouldn’t it be nice to know when the judgment of God’s house is finished, too? It is only logical that if the judgment begins nearest to God, then it should end farthest from God, right? And if we logically consider where the darkest corner of the house of God (the SDA Church) must be, naturally it must be where the loud voice[19] of the fourth angel is most hated, most censored, most attacked, and most denied: at the General Conference, where Ted Wilson’s influence is strongest. We have a north pole, and a south pole—it’s that simple.
Ted Wilson has a whole panel of pastors who form a loosely organized team to support him and his false revival and reformation program. Their website is called the Final Generation Media Productions. The first person in the list,[20] Ivor Myers, is the one who spearheaded Operation Global Rain, which was adopted into Ted Wilson’s R&R program. In the section explaining the PURPOSE of this group, it clearly says:
We support strongly the revival and reformation initiative of the general conference and our general conference president Elder Ted N.C. Wilson as he continues to serve Christ and His church to fulfill the church’s mission in the times we are living in.[21]
The judgment is about choosing your loyalty. It’s about choosing whether you will be faithful to God, or faithful to Satan by default. Many people are quick to say “No, no! You can’t judge! Only God can judge! He knows if I’m being faithful to Him.” What you might not realize is that the judgment in heaven is playing out visibly on earth, and your visible vote on earth is the reflection of your standing in heaven! Is your loyalty with the North Pole, or the South Pole? There’s no invisible middle pole; everything is manifest.
Now in that light, and considering that Pastor Bohr is listed as one pastor among those who “strongly support” Ted Wilson and his false revival and reformation initiative, the recent announcement of his retirement from the General Conference—after 18+ years of faithful, loyal, and dedicated service—speaks volumes, weighted with gravity.
Pastor Bohr published the “explanation” video (linked above) to give an explanation of his retirement. Apparently he wanted to EXPLAIN something. Some people had thought, “Ah! Good for him! Now he can celebrate his retirement, and he can enjoy the relaxation and free time... Now his old, weary body can get some rest...” Not so! Stephen Bohr explains the contrary!
He says that he has several projects underway at Secrets Unsealed, and he will not be slowing down. He says that he has been blessed with GOOD HEALTH, and has the stamina to keep working for the Lord for years to come! Without saying it in words, he’s urging you to think about why he’s retiring, and he drops a few hints which involve timing.
Pastor Bohr timed his retirement so that his employment will end on July 1, 2015. Isn’t it a bit strange that a person would quit working after the first day of the month? Normally a person would quit working after the last day of the month! That deserves an explanation, don’t you think? And that’s why he EXPLAINED it in his explanatory video: he emphasized that he has a booth at the General Conference Session, and urged everyone to visit him there beginning July 2 when the Session begins! On his first day of “retirement,” he is employing himself to confront the issue of women’s ordination directly, by separating himself from General Conference employment to speak freely on his own accord at his GC Session booth.
He has drawn a line in the sand, saying in effect, “I cannot remain united with a church—remnant or not—that accepts women’s ordination without allowing me to speak.” That is a frontal attack on Ted Wilson’s unity-at-any-cost nonsense. By the way, here is one quote he didn’t include in his “Great Hope” hoax:
If unity could be secured only by the compromise of truth and righteousness, then let there be difference, and even WAR. {GC 45.3}[22]
This timely “retirement” is a resurgence of the issues of the fourth trumpet, and it draws attention to the series of sermons Pastor Bohr preached at GYC beginning January 1, 2015. Listen to those sermons! They make a solid case for why women in leadership is:
- A direct challenge to the very authority of the Godhead.
- A reenactment of the fall of Adam and Eve.
- A matter of eternal risk.
Those points stand in direct opposition to the General Conference leadership, and thus does Stephen Bohr. It remains to be seen if he will finish the fight he has begun, but at least we can learn some lessons from his fourth-trumpet sermon.
His decision has implications that even he probably doesn’t realize. Unless there is someone even closer to Ted Wilson who is yet to take an equally divisive stand, which is doubtful, then we have to recognize that the cleansing of Ezekiel 9 has reached the farthest and darkest corner of the church. His resignation date is exactly seven days before the fateful vote on July 8—which has been marked in the Clock of God since creation—when probation will close for the Seventh-day Adventist Church, forever. When he retires, the matter is finished!
And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me. (Ezekiel 9:11)
The verses that immediately follow are about the spreading of the burning coals of the Orion message from the fire between the cherubim!
Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne. And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight. (Ezekiel 10:1-2)
Women’s ordination became a formal issue for the church in 2011. Then, Ted Wilson’s Ten Days of Prayer initiative replaced Operation Global Rain, as a way to seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance. From that time onward—which we can mark as Sabbath, January 7, 2012—there has been nothing but drought. Exactly three and a half years of drought will have passed on July 7, 2015. During those three and a half years, God has been listening to the sincere prayers of the church, as faithful members settle into the truth regarding their position against women’s ordination and unity therewith.
The fireballs that we have been warning about since 2012 could have fallen any time we had warned of, but God honored the sincere prayers of His people and held the disaster back until now.
But when July 8 comes, the drought will be over, but not because of Operation Global Rain. It’s called OPERATION “TORRENT” because we now offer our entire website in “torrents” (torrent files downloadable with BitTorrent). [Note: Operation “Torrent” was replaced by Operation “144,000 Balloons” on November 23, 2019.] We urge you to participate immediately. If you don’t know how it works, ask around! The latter rain will come in torrents, so make sure you are standing on high ground! Spread the fourth angel’s message far and wide—like the leaves of autumn that Ted Wilson ripped out of the Great Hope! Your efforts to do that should be the means through which the man clothed with linen will scatter the coals over the city.
The Three Woes
The warning, “Woe, woe, woe,” comes from the eagle[23] during the fourth trumpet.
And I beheld, and heard an angel [eagle] flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! (Revelation 8:13)
Knowing the date of the fifth trumpet (first woe) ahead of time, we were able to recognize when the eagle made his terrible announcement: President Obama announced his White House Summit to Counter Violent Extremism to begin exactly on the date prophesied for the first woe: February 18, 2015. I don’t think I need to keep saying how impossible it would have been for us to have planned the trumpet date to correspond to such an important event, when the dates are locked in place by the positions of the stars around the clock! It is God who points to these events.
At the time of the announcement, all we knew was that the summit would be about “countering violent extremism” but we didn’t know how the topic would take shape in the fifth trumpet itself. The clues that we had gathered led us to say that the preparations for the Sunday law must be coming—but we didn’t yet know how the twin institutions—Sabbath and marriage—would blend. Instead of Sunday law developments, the summit was about developments to tear down the marriage institution. With that introduction in mind, we can begin to understand how the first woe has really been a WOE!, culminating with the National Sodomy Law in the U.S., which will be announced by the Supreme Court any day now.
The Fifth Trumpet – The First Woe, Feb. 18, 2015
The White House summit kicked off the first woe by directly targeting the establishment of women’s rights and LGBT tolerance internationally.
President Obama listed an increased emphasis on human rights and democracy: “That means free elections where people can choose their own future, and independent judiciaries that uphold the rule of law, and police and security forces that respect human rights, and free speech and freedom for civil society groups.”. . . At the CVE summit, President Obama also specifically emphasized women’s rights...”[24]
Note that “free speech and freedom for civil society groups” is aimed at protecting the right of activists (LGBT activists, for example) to assemble, organize, and operate. That goes hand in hand with his emphasis on women’s rights, which was aimed especially toward the international front outside of the U.S., where women’s liberties are not everywhere taken for granted.
Understanding that women in leadership and LGBT tolerance are two successive phases of the image of the beast,[25] it becomes clear that the first phase which “specifically emphasized women’s rights” began on an international scale exactly on the date prophesied by the first woe. By contrast, the LGBT movement has been covertly present under the guise of human rights and free speech in general.
In the first four trumpets, the Holy Scriptures employed symbolism that is fairly easy to trace over the outline of unfolding events, at least in retrospect. The same is true of the fifth trumpet, now that we have a better view, looking back from the end of it.
The fifth trumpet (first woe) is in a different class than the first four trumpets, which we can see because it includes a background story to establish the “big picture” context for the actual events of the trumpet:
And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. (Revelation 9:1-2)
The very first symbol takes us back to the fall of Lucifer as also depicted in the third trumpet, and we are told about his activities on the earth. He opened the bottomless pit, symbolizing the opening of the Vatican by the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI. Next we are given symbolism of the smoke of Pope Francis’ election, coming from a furnace in the great Sistine Chapel. Then the scripture traces the smoke, which forms a smokescreen to darken or obscure. That shows how Pope Francis uses appearances as a smokescreen to cover his purposes. He wears white clothes, but his purposes are as black as Satan himself. With that background, the text now comes to the key point in the sequence of events that the trumpet date is actually pointing to.
And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. (Revelation 9:3)
Out of the smokescreen came locusts.
The Two Phases of Locusts
The locust is introduced here to represent a group or class of people. The locust has been accurately interpreted as a symbol for the Saracens (Muslims) who attacked the Christians in medieval times, but we must remember that the locusts come out of the smokescreen. As the papacy used Muslims then, it uses ISIS today as a mercenary tool to bring about the changes it desires in the world—but that is just the smokescreen.
Too many interpreters—like Anita Fuentes, Steve Fletcher, and even Adventist interpreters like Jeff Pippenger and others—are following the Muslim connection too far, and are looking at the state of Israel, which is nothing more than a smokescreen! Muslims as locusts is a well-established interpretation, which is why it serves so well as a smokescreen. It’s not all wrong, but there is a more pertinent interpretation to be recognized. In fact, history itself should lead to the correct interpretation:
Homosexuality in the Islamic world has long been known to Europeans from the early Middle Ages onward through reports brought back by travelers. Lurid descriptions of widespread homosexual practices of the Muslims in the Holy Land were, in fact, a principle element used in Christian propaganda attempting to rouse the Christians of Europe for the Crusades. The thirteenth-century Dominican friar William of Adam wrote of the homosexuality he witnessed in Egypt: “These Saracens, forgetting human dignity, go so far that men live with each other in the same way that men and women live together in our own land.”[26]
Let’s just examine this in the context of the White House summit, with what we know so far: we are dealing with women’s equality, and homosexuals, as two distinct phases of one and the same plague. Keep in mind that the locusts appear again in the sixth trumpet; the first and second woe themselves employ the locust symbolism in two phases—the first phase corresponding to the first woe (fifth trumpet), and the second phase corresponding to the second woe (sixth trumpet).
To gain a full understanding of the symbolism, we need to learn some things about locusts. First of all, they have two distinct phases:
Locusts differ from grasshoppers by their capacity to react to high densities. Under crowded conditions, their behaviour, morphology, appearance, physiology, habits and ecology change progressively (over several generations), a shift known as phase change. When phase change occurs from a solitary to a gregarious phase, locusts behave no more individually but form eventually dense bands of hoppers and swarms of adults.[27]
Locusts indeed have two distinct phases, related to their population. The “solitary” phase corresponds to a sparse population of locusts, whereas the “gregarious” phase corresponds to a dense population of locusts. That fits the increasingly worse scenarios of the first woe and second woe, respectively.
Islamic terrorism is just the smokescreen, but homosexuality is the plague itself.
The Women’s Rights Movement
The fifth trumpet began with a specific emphasis on women’s rights. The entire women’s rights movement is an affront to the God-ordained order of society, wherein the man—as the stronger sex—is the natural leader. Note how the locust perfectly symbolizes the women’s rights movement:
In the solitary phase, locusts exhibit sexual dimorphism with females being larger in size than males;
If you recognize that the family is the pillar of society, it is not difficult to see how domineering woman and morally weak men have turned the home order upside-down, which has led to the terrible collapse of society that we see today. It happens especially when the numbers exceed the critical threshold required for societal “phase change.” The locust provides a perfect illustration of that phenomenon.
The verse says that the locusts were given power. That was done exactly on the first day of the trumpet when Obama’s summit empowered the international community to fight violent extremism by establishing women’s rights. It’s almost laughable when you think about it, but in the devil’s twisted mind, it all comes together to serve his purpose of usurping God’s throne.
The verse compares the power of the locust to the power of a scorpion. The power of locusts is in their number, but the power of scorpions is in their tail. Locusts multiply their numbers by inserting the “tail” of the male into the “tail” of the female. It’s about sex—and it’s about inordinate sex. The more a dysfunctional couple does it, the more dysfunctional offspring they produce—just like locusts.
And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass [young in faith] of the earth, neither any green thing [believer], neither any tree [well-rooted Christian]; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. (Revelation 9:4)
A restraint is placed on the locusts to protect a certain group of people from the harm they cause in the fifth trumpet. This corresponds to the limited geographical and dietary range of the locust insect when it is in the solitary phase. In the context of prophecy as it is fulfilling today, the seal of God here refers to the mark on those who sigh and cry for the abominations that are done in the city.[28] Those who keep God’s order in their home are sighing and crying about women’s ordination and all the other abominations in the church. They are the ones who are protected from this first woe.
And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. (Revelation 9:5-6)
The first woe does not involve killing. It is about five months of torment, after which the killing begins in the second woe. The torment here is about the uncertainty of a victim’s survival, as when stung by a scorpion. The uncertainty is palpable in the church in regard to the women’s ordination issue: Will the vote pass? Will the church break (or die) as a result? These uncertainties are a torment to the church at all levels. In the world, the uncertainty surrounds the Supreme Court’s upcoming decision on the constitutionality of same-sex marriage rights. Will Christian marriage survive? Will the issue flare into civil unrest? Will liberty survive under the heavy hand of Jade Helm? The uncertainty is a very real torment, but killing and death is reserved for the second woe.
Now we come to a detailed description of the locusts, which reveals that they represent more than just the women’s rights movement. The locusts also represent the LGBT movement, which has been increasing as well, just as the locust transitions into the gregarious phase over several successive generations as the band multiplies. The Bible’s description fits every detail of the LGBT movement:
And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. (Revelation 9:7-8)
Have you seen how gays and lesbians pounce on Christian businesses, fighting them in court? It is a military movement that fights against godly morality. They have resources, too. Giant businesses support the gay cause. And the gay rights movement is not just about compassion for those who are “different.” They are GAP: Gay and Proud. That’s why it’s called Gay Pride. They are an active military force, not just a passive defense measure for some minority. The LGBT movement is like horses prepared for battle.
Who are the visible “heads” of the LGBT movement? Who are the icons that are held up on the public stage, and crowned with “honor” for their courageous demonstrations? People like “Caitlyn” (Bruce) Jenner and “Conchita Wurst” (Tom Neuwirth). They are drag queens—as in queens with golden crowns. Do you see how the prophecy fits so far? I don’t need to explain what a man’s face with woman’s hair means!
Who is behind all of this? Who is walking around, seeking whom he might devour with his teeth—as in devour with homosexual lust?
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: (1 Peter 5:8)
God addresses this theme to the church:
Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation. There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. (Ezekiel 22:24-26)
The High Sabbaths would have helped the church to see the difference between clean and unclean, and it would have helped the church to recognize the devil for who he is today: the one who protects LGBT persons, just as the next verse says.
And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. (Revelation 9:9)
Breastplates are for protection, and iron represents Rome; it is the Pontiff of Rome who is now coming out of the closet to protect gays.
Do you hear the sound of the locusts? Do you hear the pride of horses? If the sound of President Obama’s proclamation[29] was not heard, surely you are hearing the sound of gay activists in the press around the world as they swarm together in anticipation of this summer’s events. They will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the gay rights movement this summer. Anne Gardiner, a Catholic commentator, remarked on the horses:
Note that the locusts are twice connected to “horses,” which in antiquity were symbols of pride, lust, and atheism.[30]
Let's let her interpret the tails as well, right after this text:
And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them [Pope Francis], which is the angel of the bottomless pit [the Vatican], whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon [destroyer], but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon [destroyer]. One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. (Revelation 9:10-12)
The implication is that their deadly sting is treacherous. The application can easily be made to the male organ used in sodomy, which spreads a host of sexually transmitted diseases.
We would add that the LGBT movement was given five months during this trumpet to “infect” people with their tolerance ideas. The last day of the five months is July 17, 2015. That day (or the first after it) will likely prove to hold prophetic significance too.
One more quote from Anne Gardiner sums up the point that as Pope Francis introduces LGBT tolerance into the Catholic Church, he is actually showing his support of the sin of sodomy:
Of late, Catholics have been taught to “hate the sin but love the sinner.” It was assumed that the sinner could be distinguished from the sin. But one of the marks of damnation in Dante’s Inferno is that the sinner is completely identified with his sin. In our times, sodomites proudly insist that they must be fully identified with their sin. They even claim to be incorporated with it, to cherish it as their very essence. Raising sodomy aloft as a banner, they wave it proudly and follow it into battle against normalcy. For decades their cry has been, “love me, love my sodomy,” and beyond that, “God loves me and my sodomy.” But no thief has ever cried, “love me, love my thievery.” No perjurer has ever exclaimed, “God loves me and my lying oaths.” This is a transvaluation akin to Lucifer’s cry, in Milton’s Paradise Lost, “Evil, be thou my good.”
There you have it, coming from a Catholic author and contributing editor of the New Oxford Review. Pope Francis—by making the church a safe place for sodomy—is revealing himself to be Lucifer (Satan) in the flesh!
As you can see, every descriptive word about the locusts fits the homosexual army exactly! By the end of the fifth trumpet, the phase change of the locust is complete.
Do you see now why Jesus said to Laodicea that He would spew (vomit) them out of His mouth? Today, the Laodicean church is about to officially indulge in a locust-like order in the family, where the woman is the leader. Some Adventists are fond of emphasizing that the man should be the SPRITUAL leader, the PRIEST of the home. That is true, but by placing the emphasis where it doesn’t belong, the subliminal implication is that the woman is free to lead in all other areas as queen! Think about it, and catch the tricks for what they are! All this, while such ones profess to keep the Sabbath and have the seal of God.
When you realize that women in leadership is just the first phase of the locust toward homosexuality, you begin to realize how it must turn God’s stomach to see what is going on in the church with women’s ordination. It is a locust characteristic; it matters not whether it be in one phase or the other! To him, it’s the same as watching homosexuals smooch or something like that—it makes Him want to puke!
Sometimes we see comments about women who were leaders in the Bible... Deborah is a favorite. I wonder why nobody seems to recognize that a woman conquering in battle is the highest possible shame to man!? God put those examples to shame Israel! It’s like a hardened criminal getting beat up by a little ol’ lady with a rolling pin! Of course you would cheer for such a woman, but it’s no argument for women in leadership—it’s an argument for the men to be men!
The greatest want of the world is the want of men—men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. {Ed 57.3}[31]
We need men who will stand as true to principle as the needle to the pole. God will test the men who are given responsibilities in His work, and unless they show that they have a true idea of what Christlike principles are, He will remove them and put others in their place. {13MR 196.1}[32]
Have you felt the first woe? Have you felt the pressure of the gay lobby? Have you felt the pressure to have women leading your home, your church, your business? Have you seen the media flooded with gay filth, both subliminally and overtly? Have you been tormented as prophesied? Don’t tell us that you still can’t see the trumpets fulfilling!
The Sixth Trumpet – The Second Woe, July 8, 2015
And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. (Revelation 9:13-15)
We interpreted the beginning of the sixth trumpet in detail in the Death of the Twins article in the light of two other stories:
- The story of Samson, who brought down the twin pillars and the roof fell on his head.
- The story of Elijah, whose altar sacrifice was symbolic of the 2015 GC Session.
If you are not already familiar with that important interpretation which is time-sensitive, please do study it in that article. Here, I just want to focus on the fact that the letting loose of the four angels refers to the letting loose of the first four trumpet angels, at the appointed hour, day, month, and year of July 8, 2015.
From here on, we can apply our newfound understanding of what the locusts are:
And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. (Revelation 9:16)
The Bible here gives a figure of 200 million to identify the army. John heard the number, so this number was given to specify what army is being talked about. The largest army in the world is about a hundredth of that size, so it cannot be talking about a literal military army. It must be talking about a militaristic group of that specified size. The commonly cited estimate of the number of LGBT persons in the world is around 3%. We can calculate what percentage of the world’s population belongs to this prophetic army by dividing the number 200 million by the world population of about 7 billion. The result is about 2.8%, very near the commonly accepted estimate of 3%. Thus God identifies LGBTs as the horse-like army of locusts.
A detailed description of the horses follows, and we notice that the symbolism has become stronger:
And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. (Revelation 9:17-19)
From the description, we can see that the aggression of the locusts increases, with not only teeth of lions, but heads of lions. They now have mouths that speak fire and smoke and brimstone, symbolizing that they have political and legislative force to kill or silence their enemies. That will clearly be the case in the U.S. as soon as the Supreme Court rules in favor of same-sex marriage. Then they will have a firm legal basis for their existence and operation.
In addition to political power, the power of their tails (sexual power) has also become more satanically perverse than it was in the fifth trumpet. Now their tails are described as serpents with heads. The heads represent the governmental leaders who support them and are capable of speaking for them. That is how they hurt (kill) the people of God.
The sad conclusion of the trumpet warnings at the close of human probation echoes from the pages of the sacred Word:
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. (Revelation 9:20-21)
Earlier, we saw how the judgment of Ezekiel 9 is coming to an end. Then it’ll be over for the church... Those who can be saved, will have been marked by the angel with the writer’s inkhorn. We hope you are one of them.
We are not the first to interpret locusts as representing gays. We already saw a Catholic make that interpretation. Another commentator expressed it succinctly on a radio show:
Barber agreed [with LaBarbera], saying that progressives are just modern-day pagans and comparing gay activists to a “swarm of locusts” who attack “anything noble” in an effort to destroy it and leave nothing but a dried husk.[33]
Note some of the changes that locusts undergo as they transition to the gregarious phase:
In gregarious phase, they form dense and highly mobile (marching) bands of hoppers and flying swarms of adults (winged locusts), which behave as an entity.[34]
Note how they mate together, like in one big sexual orgy:
This gregarious behavior is reinforced by a synchronization of the biological events: mating, egg-laying, hatching, fledging. Thus, eggs hatch at the same moment from dense egg-beds and the newly appeared hoppers form immediately primary bands; after fledging, the immature adults will form swarms.
Note how the distinction between male and female goes away, as in homosexuals:
...the differences in size between the sexes become less pronounced and may sometimes disappear in the gregarious phase.
The Scriptures could hardly have used a more fitting creature to represent the gay movement! The symbolism is even reinforced by iconographic media like the well-known 13th & Locust St. crossing in the “Gayborhood” of Philadelphia, where rainbows adorn the street signs, and soon the crosswalks! That is Philadelphia, U.S., the city of “brotherly lust” where the satanic (13th St.) lord of the locusts, Pope Francis, will be visiting soon. It has nothing in common with the Philadelphia of brotherly love mentioned in the Bible.
Conclusion
It is not only the trumpets that are fulfilling now. News reports are reminding us that soon every mountain and island will be moved out of its place:
-
June 16, The Guardian: Mount Everest moved three centimeters after Nepal earthquake
That is just a gentle reminder that the sixth seal is also about to be closed:
And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. (Revelation 6:13-14)
(Annotation from August 2016: For more information regarding the fulfillment of the classical sixth seal, please see the addendum to History Repeats II. The fulfillment of the repeated sixth seal is explained in the addendum to Signs of the End and slides 101-114 of the Orion Presentation.)
Yes, that means the stars are about to fall again, but this time they will impact the surface. It is time for the fireballs to fall now, to destroy modern-day Sodom. “What about the Sunday law?” I hear the Adventists say. “National apostasy must come before national ruin!” Did you understand what we wrote in the Death of the Twins article? Do you understand that you can read the well-known Ellen G. White quotes in a new light now? For example:
The LGBT [was: Sabbath] question is to be the issue in the great final conflict in which all the world will act a part.—Testimonies for the Church 6:352 (1900). {LDE 135.2}
The substitution of the false for the true is the last act in the drama. When this substitution becomes universal God will reveal Himself. When the laws of men are exalted above the laws of God, when the powers of this earth try to force men to allow same-sex marriage [was: keep the first day of the week], know that the time has come for God to work.—The S.D.A. Bible Commentary 7:980 (1901). {LDE 135.4}
For the 168-years of the judgment of the dead, it was about the Sabbath. But for the three-and-a-half-year judgment of the living, it is about marriage. God sees the heart!
Let’s bring this subject back around to where we started. Now we know:
- Bible prophecy is fulfilling like precision clockwork as we speak.
- The women’s liberation and LGBT movements play the central role in the three woe trumpets.
- Pope Francis is coming out of the closet in support of sodomy, confirming that he is Satan incarnate.
What else is left of the apocalypse? In the next three months after July 8 till the seventh trumpet, Satan wants to “master the human domain” by taking control of the entire planet. By doing that, he would win the Great Controversy that is so dear to the hearts of Adventists. I cannot express how it makes me feel to see my church doing what it is doing—or not doing. To stand idly by and disregard the advances of the enemy, and add on top of that rebellion against God’s social order in marriage, is a crime greater than we can comprehend. Perhaps that is why the coming destruction is also greater than we can comprehend:
It is often the case that trouble is greater in anticipation than in reality; but this is not true of the crisis before us. {GC 622.4}[35]
Satan will not stop with the world’s throne. He wants God’s throne. He wants to be at the center of the rainbow that encircles the throne of God. Yes, the LGBT rainbow itself shows his motive:
As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake. (Ezekiel 1:28)
Now you begin to see just how blasphemous and satanic Gay Pride really is. If you watched Stephen Bohr’s GYC message,[36] you should recognize that homosexuality is blasphemous mockery of the special relationship between God the Father and His Son, in whose image man and woman were created.
The Lord has shown me that Satan was once an honored angel in heaven, next to Jesus Christ. His countenance was mild, expressive of happiness like the other angels. His forehead was high and broad, and showed great intelligence. His form was perfect. He had a noble, majestic bearing. And I saw that when God said to his Son, Let us make man in our image, Satan was jealous of Jesus. He wished to be consulted concerning the formation of man. He was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred. He wished to be the highest in heaven, next to God, and receive the highest honors. Until this time all heaven was in order, harmony and perfect subjection to the government of God. {1SG 17.1}[37]
Now we are coming to the reason why the pope is supporting gay rights, and why he is calling for a new social and cultural pact. The primary criticism of social contract theory according to the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy is that there is a more fundamental contract between men and women which renders the social contract incomplete. The following quote makes the point clear:
Carole Pateman’s 1988 book, The Sexual Contract, argues that lying beneath the myth of the idealized contract, as described by Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau, is a more fundamental contract concerning men’s relationship to women. Contract theory represents itself as being opposed to patriarchy and patriarchal right. (Locke’s social contract, for example, is set by him in stark contrast to the work of Robert Filmer who argued in favor of patriarchal power.) Yet the “original pact” (2) that precedes the social contract entered into by equals is the agreement by men to dominate and control women.[38]
To reframe that feminist observation in biblical terms, we could say that the “original pact” that precedes the social contract entered into by equals is the marriage institution—which is not about “domination and control” as the feminists say, but about oversight and submission. Thus, the woman’s rights movement is a direct challenge to the marriage institution, which was patterned after the divine similitude of the Godhead. As such, the feminist movement directly attacks the Godhead, and is thus purely satanic, as Ellen G. White—who is often quoted to mean the opposite—frankly stated:
Those who feel called out to join the movement in favor of woman’s rights and the so-called dress reform might as well sever all connection with the third angel’s message. The spirit which attends the one cannot be in harmony with the other. The Scriptures are plain upon the relations and rights of men and women. {1T 421.4}[39]
Maybe after voting for women’s ordination, the Seventh-day Adventist Church should drop the “Seventh-day” part of its name in its effort to sever all connection with the third angel’s message! Then it would be easier to fall in line with the Sunday worship of the pope’s new social and cultural pact! No, friends, it should not be so.
Even the Satanist feminists recognize that the marriage institution forms the underlying pact that all society is based upon, and that is precisely what they have a problem with. When God created Adam, He created him complete. Then he took out a rib. The ribs are the covering of the heart; by forming Eve from his rib, God uncovered Adam’s heart and made a visible display of it through Eve. You see into the heart of a man when you see his wife, as you can see God by looking at His Son. The two become one flesh, which means they become one dynamical system where a law of conservation governs their relationship. What one does affects the other. Husband and wife are like two quantum particles in a state of entanglement—measuring the spin of one reveals the spin of the other.
The Bible makes it clear that the submission order within the Godhead is essential to the plan of salvation. Let’s follow the plan step by step. It all started with God as the Great Author of all.
God invested all authority in His Son by creating all things through Him, and by putting all things under Him.
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. (1 Corinthians 15:27-28)
Jesus exercised the authority that the Father had given Him when He created the earth and its inhabitants. God designed the human race in His image, and instituted the “original pact” of marriage to establish the order of human society. Adam, the patriarch of the human family, was the representative of earth until the fall, after which Satan became the new representative of the earth.
Jesus was incarnated to redeem the fallen race. As heir of heaven, He still held title to the heavenly estate—He was the King of Heaven, born in a feeding trough. By becoming a man, Jesus gave Himself (and His estate) to the human family. What a treasure was held in His Person! Satan, being the representative of the human race, thought he could acquire the title to heaven and become equal with God by killing Jesus. He knew that upon Jesus’ death, the inheritance would pass to the survivors of the human race, which he represented.
Although Jesus had bequeathed or willed the heavenly estate to the human family, Satan’s supposed victory was actually a defeat. In the same act of his death, Jesus redeemed the race and became its Representative anew. Jesus returned to heaven to represent (intercede) on man’s behalf, until the time when the redeemed should inherit the Kingdom. They must first be holy, then they can receive the Kingdom.
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? (Romans 8:32)
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. (Revelation 3:21)
The work of redemption involves consequences of which it is difficult for man to have any conception. “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9. . . . To human beings striving for conformity to the divine image there is imparted an outlay of heaven’s treasure, an excellency of power, that will place them higher than even the angels who have never fallen. {COL 162.4}
With that plan, God demonstrates the full circle of His love. Love is only love when it is given, and God shows that He loves and trusts us enough to commit heaven—and even His own Person—into the care of human hands! In the human realm, that is what a husband does with his wife. She becomes his equal, and what is his is hers, all within the parameters of the original pact which was formed in the image of God.
Committing Himself to the care of His creatures is the ultimate expression of God’s impartiality.
Are you ready to accept that responsibility? Will you take good care of Him and His household? Are you prepared to be obedient even unto the death of the cross? Will you be willing to give up your eternal life for Him, like Jesus did, when called to do so? Does your holiness measure up to His character? That is the high calling of this generation, the 144,000!
We are in the judgment of the living, and cases are being judged to decide who is worthy to take that responsibility. Before you judge another, you should be willing to give your life for that person. Before God can be vindicated in the great tribunal of heaven, the jurors must be willing to give their life for Him.
No rebellion can be allowed in heaven. God is the head of Christ, and Christ—though equal—demonstrates perfect submission. If it were not so, the Son of God would be in rebellion against His Father, like Lucifer is! But the Son remains in perfect submission, and God remains all in all. God is a God of order, and love is demonstrated through the order of submission.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:5-11)
Christ is the head of the church, and the church must also come into perfect submission to Him.
Where are our women, who, thinking it not robbery to be equal with men, will make themselves of no reputation, and being found in fashion as a woman, will humble themselves, and become obedient to their husbands? Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus! Where are our men, who are vested with the authority to fulfill the responsibility entrusted to them? Where are our men and women, who will be obedient unto death, even the death of the cross, for Christ’s sake?
The order of headship is God’s design for the government of society under Christ. It is an extension of the very government of heaven. God ordered and instituted marriage as the building block of society.
Do you see why Pope Francis is calling for a new social and cultural pact? We already have social pacts, but they assume a culture of godly marriage which is derived from the original pact. That is why he wants a new pact that is not only a social pact, but also a cultural pact—one that replaces the original culture of marriage with a culture of equality for women and gays that would remove the last vestige of God’s authority in the government of man.
Thus he purports to deliver on the ancient promise of a better form of government to the hosts of heaven—one where all are equal. Satan wants to “master the human domain” (the motto of Jade Helm for the next three and a half months) because the earth is the sandbox for proving the concept that he hopes to transfer to the whole universe. If all humanity accepts his form of government here on earth, then where is the church? Where is the bride of Christ? Where are those who will vindicate the Father, and the Father’s order in government?
Like homosexuality, women’s ordination tears apart the very fabric of God’s order in society. It is not just a matter of earthly government. By voting for women’s ordination, the church would be justifying Lucifer’s rebellion. It would be deciding in favor of unraveling of the very warp and woof of the universe: the relationship within the Godhead itself. That is THE blessed tie that binds not only our hearts in Christian love, but the whole universe under God. Those who dismantle the marriage institution or tolerating the ones who do so are fighting on the wrong side of the Great Controversy.
Can God trust Himself to a church where divine order is not maintained? Is such a church worthy to be wed to the spotless Lamb of God and inherit the everlasting estate of the Father? This is not just a question of personal salvation—it is a question of the survival of the unfallen universe! The Lamb’s bride must make herself ready!
Starting from July 8, there will be just three and a half months till LGBT equality becomes universal, and then the plagues will begin.
This is it. Take your stand for God now, cost what it may. There’s no more time to “halt” between opinions.
