In the not so distant future a new politician will come on the global stage. He will be charismatic, intelligent and by all appearances a man of peace. This politician will gain control or become the leader of a country in the middle east some where around Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq or Iran. Shortly thereafter, he will gain control of two other local countries. From this position of power, he will form a ten country coalition. The ten countries will be allied but it will be a loose confederation, a marriage of convenience. The politician will have a partner. The partner will be a religious leader who also excels in charisma. This religious leader will be able to perform "miracles" and will use this talent to persuade the religions and peoples of the earth to follow the politician. The politician will make a peace pact between Israel and his ten country coalition. A real peace will be enjoyed for a time. The long awaited and wished for peace between the Jews and their neighbors will finally be realized. The world will applaud the peace. The news media will fall in love with the politician. The politician will allow the Jews to start rebuilding their Temple and will even help with the effort. Nations around the world will start to reduce their militaries to better use the money for other needs. All will seem well.
Three and a half years later the politician will break the peace and sneak attack Israel. The goal will be to finally wipe out the Jews. When the politician breaks the peace and attacks Israel he will be possessed by the same demon that possessed Alexander the Great. The politician will now officially be the antichrist. He will have the skill and luck in battle that allowed Alexander to conquer most of the known world. The remnant of the Jews that survive the initial attacks will be driven into the desert. Only the United States and the United Kingdom will stand with Israel but having reduced their militaries and suffering from incredible debt they will be near impotent. While battling the reconstituted tribes of Israel in the form of Israel, United States and United Kingdom, the antichrist will attack Egypt. Seeing their chance to acquire oil rich land, Russia and China will attack the ten country coalition from the east. While all this is going on in the three and a half years after the peace is broken, the world will be experiencing all the horrors in the Book of Revelation. God will be pouring out His wrath on the occupants of the earth. All the pawns in the global chess game will be drawn to the plains of Megiddo for the final battle. The antichrist and his ten country coalition will be on the verge of victory. The Jews will be close to being wiped from the face of the earth. That is when the long awaited return of the Christ will take place. Jesus and His saints will arrive and win the battle. Jesus will bind Satan and all his armies in the pit for one thousand years. The kingdom of Jesus Christ will be established. Jesus and His saints will form a government and rule the earth for a millennium.
Before the politician can be identified and take his place on the global stage a "taking away" must occur. All those who await the return of Christ will be called up to meet Him in the air. They will be taken to Heaven where they will be tutored at the feet of Jesus for seven years. It is they that will return with Christ and be a part of his new government for a thousand years. They will not die because they will be reborn as new creations in Christ. So if you don't want to live through the worst parts of the Bible pray each day that Jesus allows you to be one of the lucky ones who meet Him in the air and go with Him to Heaven for the reign of the antichrist. The choice is yours.

Wheat and Weeds
This blog is in response to a powerful, emotional blog I recently read on http://www.tormentedinhiding.blogspot.com/
In Wheatfield Bound Part 2, I was reminded several times of books I read on the subject of demonology: Hostage to the Devil by Malachi Martin, The Demonologist: The Extraordinary Career of Ed and Lorraine Warren by Gerald Brittle, The Screwtape Letters and Christianity and Culture by C. S. Lewis. Father Malachi Martin Ph. D wrote about 5 exorcisms of living Americans. Ed and Lorraine Warren have made a career investigating possible possessions for the Catholic Church in order to determine if exorcisms are warranted. The Screwtape Letters is a masterpiece in my opinion. C. S. Lewis wrote from the point of view of a ranking demon instructing lower demons on how to manipulate and handle their patients (human beings).
In Wheatfield Bound Part 2, the author speaks of hypnotism, black out periods and horror. These are recurring themes in the study of possessions. Ouija boards and hypnotism are leading catalyst for possessions. People who have gone through the tribulation of possession and exorcism often speak of entire periods of their life that are blacked out. They speak of people and experiences that they can recall clearly but they do not know it they were real, if they actually happened. In all cases or possession there are always tales of horror. We all are constantly under attack from the forces of Satan but for the extreme cases of possession it seems it is necessary for a person to allow or open themselves up to being taken over. That's what makes Ouija boards and hypnotism so dangerous they both by definition involve allowing access to you self by outer forces. C. S. Lewis "There is no neutral ground in the universe: every square inch, every split second is claimed by God and counterclaimed by Satan" Christianity and Culture. We have no choice but to choose who possesses us, God or Satan.
Satan has been extremely successful at convincing the world that he doesn't exist. We are so proud of our scientific and technological advances many people have come to believe that we are the center of the world, that no God or devils exist. This is exactly what Satan wants and is one of his greatest accomplishments. In one of the books in the Old Testament Pseudepigrapha Eve tells how Satan complains that we humans are at fault for his losing his former status and glory. Satan was the crowning cherub in heaven, chief musician and one of the most beautiful if not the most beautiful of all angels. When Satan rebelled and set himself up as a god, one third of heaven rebelled with him. They were cast out of heaven as a punishment for their rebellion. God planned to replace the perfect beings that had rebelled with imperfect beings that would show faith and devotion to Him. Later on Earth, fallen angels seeing the daughters of men, seeing they were beautiful took them for wives and had children with them. The nephilim (giants or titans) were the offspring of these forbidden unions. They were 600 feet tall and were devouring all the food of the Earth including humans. The nephilim were a major reason for the great flood. After the flood, their bodies died but their spirits being half angel couldn't die. They have remained here on Earth as disembodied spirits. These spirits are one of the perpetrators of possessions although possession by fallen angels takes place also. Living without bodies is such a horrible existence that they would rather live in pigs than be without bodies, as one of the stories of Jesus relates. These are the reasons why Satan is at war with us humans. Satan knows that some of us are destined to replace him in heaven ruling with our Lord. Satan is determined to stop or thwart God's plan as best he can.
Satan is a master general; he does not use his forces where they are not needed. As with the parable of the wheat and weeds. God only has plans for the wheat. The weeds are destined for the fire. There is no point for Satan to use his armies to contend with the weeds. They are already lost. Satan focuses his forces on the wheat. Those of us who have the ability to be of use to our Father, we are the targets of Satan. This is why the evil seem to have boundless good luck and the good always find hardship. It is said that no one comes to the Father unless the spirit draws them. Therefore if you feel the pull of God, if you want to be with our Lord rejoice He hasn't forgotten you. He hasn't given up on you. Don't give up on God and don't give up on yourself. Every prophecy that comes before the return of our Lord in the air to take the church to heaven for the seven year reign of the antichrist has been fulfilled. The final chess pieces are being moved into place. We are on the verge of seeing chapter 4 of the Book of Revelation come to fruition. Be happy that you have tribulation. That is your proof that you are a threat to Satan and a useful servant God. Look for the coming of the Lord and He will collect you and take you to the Barn.
