THE SIGNS ANNOUNCING THE END TIMES, IN THE BOOK OF MATTHEW, ALSO CORRELATE WITH THE SEVEN SEALS OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION
And hello, everybody. Welcome to the show. I’m Sherry Shriner. A couple things I wanna talk about today. You know, I’ve been spending the last couple weeks in Bible prophecy. And so, kind of want to stay there tonight. Talk about the second coming of Christ and the millennial reign. And I wrote articles on this years ago. It’s on my website.
One of the interesting aspects is that whenever you talk about the second coming of Christ, people head to Matthew 24. That is, like, the most dominant scripture for the return of Christ in the Bible. Everybody heads there. And so, I wanna talk about that tonight. And on into some other things.
You know, the signs of Matthew announcing the end also correlate with the seven seals of Revelation, folks. In Matthew 24, verses 4-14, we’re given what are signs or labor pains. These are events that will occur over time, becoming stronger and stronger as the last days get nearer and nearer. And that is why and how I discovered that they correlate to the book of Revelation itself.
THE MANY FALSE PROPHETS IN MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE FIRST SEAL, THE WHITE HORSE OF REVELATION 6
If you look at Matthew 24 [verse 5], the many false prophets, it corresponds to the first seal, the white horse in Revelation 6. Another way of looking at that. It says,
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
in Matthew 24. And in Revelation 6 [verses 1 and 2], it says,
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
And if you correlate that with false prophets, they conquer, and they conquer the people with false doctrines and false teachings, while they claim everybody else is false, of course. And so, they spread out to build their followings.
You know, one of the things the Father was telling me on Sabbath day was that they build followers, they don’t fill His kingdom with sheep, they build followers of themselves. And so, so many. I’m not just talking about the people out there claiming they’re Jesus Christ, but all these false prophets making YouTube videos, coming out against me, against the truth. They hate, they spit venom, they build their follower bases. They don’t tell you to go sit at the Father’s feet, and to ask Him for the truth in all things. They want you to go to their YouTube channels and see what they say the truth is. And that’s not how it is, folks. That’s not how a real prophet works. A real prophet points you to the Father Himself.
THE WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS IN MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE SECOND SEAL, THE RED HORSE IN REVELATION 6
In Matthew 24 [verses 6 and 7] you have the wars and rumors of wars. And this corresponds to the second seal, the red horse in Revelation 6.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
In Revelation 6 [verses 3 and 4] we see,
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
So the rider of the red horse is war. Takes peace from the earth. Not just war, but also terrorism, these false flags. Taking peace.
THE FAMINES OF MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE SIXTH SEAL, THE BLACK HORSE IN REVELATION 6
The famines of Matthew 24 corresponds to the sixth seal, the black horse in Revelation 6. In Matthew 24 [verse 7] it says,
7 …and there shall be famines
In Revelation 6 [verses 5 and 6] it says,
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
A lot of famines coming.
THE EARTHQUAKES OF MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE FOURTH SEAL, THE PALE GREEN HORSE IN REVELATION 6
The earthquakes of Matthew 24 corresponds to the fourth seal, the pale green horse in Revelation 6. Matthew 24 [verse 7], it says,
7 …and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
In Revelation 6 [verses 7 and 8], it says,
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
The earthquakes can be literal, as in earthquakes, plates moving. It can also—in the Hebrew, is shakings and quakings.
THE PERSECUTIONS AND TORTURES TO THE ELECT OF MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE FIFTH SEAL IN REVELATION 6
Number five, the persecutions and tortures to the Elect of Matthew 24 corresponds to the fifth seal in Revelation 6.
In Matthew 24 [verses 8 and 9], it says,
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Revelation 6:9,
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Many, many Christians being targeted and persecuted throughout the world already for their faith. Asians being wiped out for being Christians. Africa, whole communities being destroyed by the Muslims for being Christians. Many will fall away. Lawlessness. The love of many will grow cold.
And, yet, the good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed to the whole world. And as you know, the Internet is, already, all around the world, people know who Yahushua is, who Jesus is, who a Christian is, what a Christian is.
IN MATTHEW 24, THE LORD IS DESCRIBING THE BUILDUP OF TIME UP UNTIL HIS SECOND COMING
In Matthew 24, the pains get progressively worse. He’s describing a whole buildup of time, up until His second coming. So it’s encompassing, not just a three-, or four-, or five-year period of time, it’s encompassing what’s going on up to the time of His second coming.
WHAT THE LORD IS NOT COMING TO DO DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD
The tribulation period is about the Lord’s judgment on the wicked. Yes, they will persecute and destroy many, and they already are. But when the bowl judgments begin, the last set of judgments during the tribulation period, it’s over for them. Because the last half—what we term the last part—of the tribulation period, it is His wrath and judgment on the wicked. The Lord is returning, not to revamp our failing economic systems, He’s not coming to cleanse the earth and teach people how to ascend to a higher spirituality, a higher dimension, He’s not gonna revamp our health care or save our dying ecosystems. He’s not coming to distribute wealth among the poor, form coalitions, or unite mankind. He is coming to destroy the wicked off the face of the earth.
In Malachi 4 [verse 1] we read,
4 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
Not one of them left. This is the elite. This is all the wicked and the proud. [Malachi 4:2-6]
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
What is the curse?
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
That’s Isaiah 11:4.
WHAT THE WEATHER WILL BE LIKE IN THE DAY YAHUSHUA RETURNS TO EARTH
He gives us a description of what the weather would be like in the day He returns to earth. In Matthew 24:29 and 30.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes (the nations) of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
In Zachariah you read that the clouds are His people. He is returning with His Elect and His Bride. He’s coming in the clouds. It refers to His groups of people.
MOST PEOPLE HAVE CONVENIENTLY IGNORED THAT THE FATHER SENDS HIS PEOPLE OUT, DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD, TO DESTROY THE WICKED – WHO WILL STAND UP FOR THE FATHER?
All these events happening shortly before He returns at the second coming. And I already went through the seals and the trumpet judgments, folks. What I find interesting is most people have conveniently ignored—one of the biggest parts of the tribulation period is that the Father sends His people out to destroy the wicked. He’s not going to do—He’s going to do it, but He’s gonna direct His people.
You know, we have this victim mentality that everybody’s—that he’s [Satan’s] always gonna be able to destroy us, and we’re always just to lay back and be doormats for evil. And some of you are so pathetic that if Satan walked in your house, you would offer him a cup of tea. You’ve become so soft against evil.
Let me tell you something. There is a difference between loving your enemies and the Father’s enemies. There’s a difference. We all have enemies, but the Father’s enemies, they’re my enemies. And that’s the mentality you should have. The Father’s enemies should be yours. He asks in Psalms who would stand up for Him against the wicked? Because the church is in bed with them. They’re so soft on evil that’s why we’re in the conditions we’re in.
A warrior, someone who truly loves the Father, would want to rise up against His enemies. Now, I’m not saying you have to rise up in a violent way. What we do isn’t violent. We put out aether energy. And aether energy is a pure form of living energy. And guess what it does. It destroys anything evil. Hm-hm. The Father’s ways are a little bit different than our ways, folks.
BEFORE YAHUSHUA EVEN RETURNS TO EARTH, THE HEAVENS ARE IN CHAOS
Before Yahushua even returns to earth, the heavens are in chaos. The fallen angels have been cast down to earth. All of the angels that inhabit our skies, and under our earth, on the earth, they’ve mixed with mankind, it’s dark, there’s no food, there’s plagues and pestilences, famines everywhere. Babylon’s been destroyed, and whole nations have been destroyed. Billions of people have been killed that didn’t get away from the coastlines. They’ve been warned to get off the coastlines. And when He comes, it’s more like a victory march. He’s gonna come defeat the final remnant of wicked that are on the earth. And He’s coming in the clouds with His people.
Wanna read this. Matthew 24, verse 31 [and verse 37]. We’ll start at 24:29.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
THE ELECT ARE ALREADY IN HEAVEN, DOING EXPLOITS FOR THE FATHER, BEFORE YAHUSHUA GATHERS THEM FOR HIS ARRIVAL AT THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON
I wanted to point this out, because people misinterpret this part of the scripture.
31 And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet. And they shall gather together His elect from the four winds. From one end of heaven to the other.
Not one end of earth to the other. The Elect are already in heaven. What are they doing in heaven? They’re the ones casting down Satan and his minions. They’re busy doing exploits for the Father in heaven. And what He does, before He arrives to earth is He gathers all the Elect who are off doing exploits, so that they can arrive to earth with Him at the Battle of Armageddon.
WHILE THE ELECT ARE BUSY DESTROYING THE WICKED OUT OF SPACE, IT WILL BE THE MANTLE OF THE IT WILL BE THE MANTILE OF THE FATHER’S PEOPLE WHO ARE LEFT ON EARTH TO RISE UP AND DESTROY THE WICKED
See, you all think we’re up in heaven sitting on harps—playing string instruments, sitting on clouds. No, we’re busy. We’re busy. We’re gonna be helping the angels cast Satan’s minions down to earth. And they’re everywhere. They’re from one end of the solar system to the other. They’ve got exoplanets everywhere. They’ve got humans stashed everywhere. We’re gonna be busy freeing the captives. Freeing the humans, destroying the wicked in space, casting them out of space. We get to help with that. Now it sounds fun, huh? Because while we’re busy destroying all the wicked out of space, the Father’s people that are left on earth are gonna be busy destroying the wicked left on the earth. It will be their mantle to rise up and destroy the wicked.
THE ELECT OPERATES IN THE POWER AND SPIRIT OF ENOCH, AND THE BRIDE OPERATES IN THE POWER AND SPIRIT OF ELIJAH
And I point this out in my article, because it’s a truth we’ve missed for ages, folks. Are the Elect and the Bride the same two groups? No, they’re different groups. The Elect are part of the Bride, but they are also a group to themselves. In the Hebrew translations, “elect” was lost. It was—they translated it elect, it should have been firstborn, firstfruits. Bride is a different term. I wrote an article about it, The Two Groups of 144,000, and they have different roles on the earth. And what I find interesting is that one group, the Elect, operates in the power and spirit of Enoch. And the other one is the Bride, that operates in the power and spirit of Elijah. Interesting, huh? Enoch and Elijah. Good way of looking at the two different groups of the Elect and the Bride.
Because I always saw Enoch associated with the Elect. Always saw him associated with that group. And that’s why. Because we operate in his spirit and the way he did things. And he was the man—one of the greatest patriarchs on earth, one of the greatest biblical prophets, and the churches don’t even teach who he is. That’s how pathetic they are.
You can go to my website and read my article on the two groups of 144,000. Why are there two groups? The churches only teach one, when there’s two. I’m not gonna get into that tonight.
THE APPAREL OF THE SAINTS WHO RETURN WITH YAHUSHUA
We’re gonna jump on ahead [inaudible] the second coming. [reading occasionally from her article The Battle of Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ]
Yahushua predicted the suddenness of His coming, when He said, in Matthew 24 [verse 27],
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
In Zechariah 14:15 [Sherry means 14:5 –transcriber]—Zechariah, that was the scripture I was talking about. What are these clouds? They are the saints returning with Jesus/Yahushua wearing white robes. In Hebrews 12:1, believers are referred to as a cloud of witnesses. The clouds, then, would all be the church-age believers returning in immortal glorified bodies, with Yahushua, in the air. This will also include the resurrected Old Testament saints; Revelation 19, verse 14. And as the prophet Zechariah predicted,
5 and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
Zechariah 14:5.
The apostle John speaks of the apparel of the saints as they return with Christ.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
Revelation 19:14j. He explains the white linen robes.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Revelation 19:8.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YAHUSHUA STANDS ON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES – THE LAST GLOBAL CONFLICT DESCRIBES A GREAT THERMONUCLEAR AND/OR CHEMICAL WAR
And after the sign of the son of man in the heavens, He will return, and they will see His destination is to the Mount of Olives, and move over to the Valley of Jehoshaphat, as a combined effort, to where the Mount of Olives is located.
It is in this Valley of Jehoshaphat, which we know as Armageddon, that Jesus will destroy the remaining armies on the earth and set His feet on the mount where they belonged so long ago, left from when He was there as a suffering Messiah. And that’s depicted in Zechariah 14,
When His feet touched the mount, a great earthquake results, splitting the mount from east to west. Causing a great gap as one half of the mount moves north, and the other south. It is at this time that the surviving Jewish remnant will understand the prophecy that this valley caused by the earthquake between the mount has been created for them. They will flee and run into it for protection from the terrible judgment that is about to be poured out on the surrounding armies described in Zechariah 14, verses 4,5,11, and 12.
His feet shall stand, in that day, on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem in the east, and the mount shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west. And there shall be a great valley. And half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains, and there shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem. Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
This is exactly what would happen if someone was caught in the middle of a thermonuclear blast, or exposed to an unprecedented chemical warfare blast. In their attempts to destroy Yahushua and His saints, these armies will destroy themselves.
This last global conflict describes a great thermonuclear and/or chemical war. It is a nuclear war that will cause the sun to lose its shining in a chemical war that could, along with a nuclear blast, describe the other effects. Of course, a thermonuclear blast itself could melt the skin off the soldiers in the surrounding armies and cause their eyes to sink back in their heads. For most of these armies, the last thing they will see on earth is Yahushua and His saints.
As Armageddon begins, Israel will defend itself against the threat of total annihilation by the Orient, the kings of the East, and empty its own nuclear arsenal on its approaching enemies.
THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON AS DESCRIBED IN REVELATION 19
As we read—where was that—Revelation, chapter 16, when the Euphrates is dried up, and the kings of the East, Asia, begin to make their way up the Euphrates and head towards Israel. The Battle of Armageddon itself is described in Revelation, chapter 19 [verses 11-19].
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his (robe) and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
And how does this war go?
20 And the beast was taken (captured), and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the (rest) were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN LUCIFERS GATHERS HIS ARMIES AT MOUNT MEGIDDO TO FIGHT AGAINST YAHUSHUA
Satan himself will eventually join them in the lake of fire. After the 1,000-year millennial reign. But what we see is the kings of the east, and the Antichrist and False Prophet gathering the armies of the earth that are left and able to gather and get over to Israel.
I don’t know what they’re gonna say. They’re gonna say that there’s some kind of alien attack coming from space or something. They’re gonna have to come up with something good. Because they get the world’s armies in Israel ready for a fight as they come upon Israel. Because Lucifer knows Yahushua’s gonna return. He knows it. And so, he gathers all the world’s armies in the Valley of Jehoshaphat, which we call Armageddon, because there’s a hill there, the Mount Megiddo. And he gathers them.
And what happens is Yahushua—you see the sign of the Son of man flash across the sky. He descends to earth with His armies, the hosts of heavens. His feet touch the Mount of Olives, a huge earthquake takes place, the remnant of the people in Israel head for safety in the valley that’s created by this great earthquake. And then His judgments are pronounced. And the armies gathered in Israel, every single one of them, are annihilated. And the birds feast of what’s left of their flesh.
I think there’s a description somewhere. That the destruction and carnage is about seven miles long. So many armies are there. Seven miles long. The Antichrist and the False Prophet are captured and chained by an angel, and they’re cast into the lake of fire. A angel. One angel, that’s all it takes to chain one of them and cast them into the lake of fire. These people aren’t bigger than life, larger than life beings, easily detained by an angel. So is Lucifer. He’s captured, and he’s put in chains, and he’s thrown into outer darkness, into the bottomless pit for a thousand years. He’s thrown into space, in chains. Can’t move, can’t do a thing, for a thousand years, until he is released again.
Now, what’s happening on earth is the Father’s going through His judgments on earth. The nations—you have the sheep—the judgment of the nations, the sheep and the goats. And you have the earth being destroyed and then replenished for 1,000 years while He has His reign on earth.
[cat meows in the background] [referring to her home] Boy, this place is just going ballistic. The cats are meowing, the dogs are barking. It’s the Monday night zoo. I have no idea what’s going on outside. I am busy. [laughs] You all have to look outside, look over at my house, and see what’s going on around here.
THE GOG AND MAGOG WAR DOES NOT HAPPEN UNTIL THE END OF THE 1,000-YEAR MILLENNIAL REIGN
All right. So let’s move on, because this is part of what has a lot of people…a lot of people misinterpreting the war with Russia, Gog and Magog War. That doesn’t happen this side of the millennium, folks. You’re all looking for a Russian war right now, it’s not happening. It doesn’t happen till the end of the 1,000-year millennial reign. So that’s not happening, and I’ve written an article on prophecy errors, where people have erred in interpreting prophecy. So I’m not gonna get into the millennial reign right now, for some reason. Uh, hm, I don’t know where my stuff is. I didn’t pull that article out.
JERUSALEM WILL BE REESTABLISHED AS THE FATHER’S CITY ON EARTH AFTER THE JUDGMENTS OF THE GOAT AND SHEEP NATIONS
Well, let’s describe…let’s describe some stuff going on afterwards. During the 1,000-year millennial reign. And you have to understand that Jerusalem will be reestablished as the Father’s city on earth. This is after the judgments of the goat and sheep nations. The goat nations who are cruel to Israel will be destroyed. And I’m not talking about the land of Israel, I’m talking about the people. The people of Israel, not the land. And those who were good.
And who’s Israel? His people. The ones who followed Him. Christians, Messianic Jews. The ones who follow the Lord are His people. It’s not talking about literal Jews, because the literal Jews that call themselves Jews, are fakes, they’re Satanists, they’re Khazarians. Ashkenazi Jews. It’s exactly what they are, they’re fakes. They are the ones who dominate Israel today. There is a remnant of Torah-believer Jews over there, but they persecute them, they persecute Christians over there. That’s why you’ll find more believers in America, and more real Jews in New York City, than you will in the land of Israel. It’s dominated by the Satanists.
IN THE NEW JERUSALEM, GOD WILL DWELL WITH MAN
So let’s jump ahead into eternity. Jump ahead. In Revelation, chapter 1, [verse] 21 it says [reading from her article, Eternity],
After the vision of the Great White Throne is completed John described the passing away of the heaven and the earth: "And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea" (Rev. 21:1).
At this time in prophecy we are now entering into Eternity. There are no more specific event-filled times given for us to know about now, no more judgments listed, no more rebellion and sin, or Satan. It will be a time of God and man in perfect eternal peace with each other. God will create a new heaven and a new earth. The former will be totally destroyed.
John then sees a vision of our new home: "And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven" (Rev. 21:2). Scripture describes this new Jerusalem as a literal city made of real material and precise dimensions. Jerusalem is the city that God loves the most above all others. It will be His capital city and all the saints will dwell in it with Him (Is. 2:2-4). Throughout mankind's history God has been in heaven while man has inhabited earth, but in the new Jerusalem God will dwell with man. It will be God's home with His saints. When Jesus was here He didn't have a place to lay his head, but in the new Jerusalem, we will be in His home created for us and we will be with Him.
THE SAINTS WHO INHABIT THIS CITY WILL HAVE GLORIFIED BODIES CAPABLE OF TRANSCENDING SPACE AND DEVOURING DISTANCES IN A FRACTION OF A SECOND
It will come down from heaven and be a city of great magnitude. Those saints who will inhabit this city will have glorified bodies capable of transcending space and devouring distances in a fraction of a second. There will be no need for any type or system of transportation because we will be able to transport ourselves more easily and efficiently than a mode of material transportation.
THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH WILL WALK IN THE LIGHT OF THE NEW JERUSALEM
The location of this city is not specifically given but the vision John had indicates that this new Jerusalem comes close to the earth but he never said that it actually sits or directly rests on the earth. It is spoken of as "the Jerusalem which is above". The nations of the earth will "walk in its light" which implies that this city is above them (Is. 2:2).
ON THE 12 GATES OF THE NEW JERUSALEM ARE THE NAMES OF THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL, ON THE 12 FOUNDATIONS OF THE WALLS OF THE CITY ARE THE NAMES OF THE 12 APOSTLES
In visionary detail John described this city: "Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. On the east three gates, on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb...
THE NEW JERUSALEM IS APPROXIMATELY 1500 MILES LONG, 1500 MILES WIDE, AND 1500 MILES HIGH
And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs ( a furlong is about six hundred feet, which means that this new Jerusalem is approximately 1500 miles long, 1500 miles wide, and 1500 miles high.
The base of this city would be in comparison to about two-thirds of the size of the United States). And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits (216 feet high), according to the measure of man...
A CITY OF GOLD AND PRECIOUS STONES OF MANY COLORS
And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones.
The first foundation was jasper (crystalline quartz); the second, sapphire (brilliant blue); the third, a chalcedony (pale blue or gray); the fourth, an emerald (bright green); the fifth, a sardonyx (deep orange-red); the sixth, sardius (bright red); the seventh, chrysolyte (transparent gold or some suggest olive green); the eighth, beryl (bluish green); the ninth, a topaz (dark blue or some suggest yellow sapphire); the tenth, chrysoprasus (apple green); the eleventh, jacinth (violet); the twelfth, an amethyst (deep or clear purple or bluish violet). And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every single gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were a transparent glass.
A CITY LIT BY THE GLORY OF GOD, THE LAMB OF GOD, YAHUSHUA
And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there....
THEY WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THE LAMB’S BOOK OF LIFE SHALL ENTER INTO THE NEW JERUSALEM
And there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's Book of Life" (Rev. 21:11-27).
IMAGINE A HUGE CITY IN THE SHAPE OF A CUBE TWELVES LEVELS OR FLOORS HIGH WITH A 216-FOOT WALL AROUND IT
This new Jerusalem is a prepared place of gold, pearls, and precious stones for a prepared people. The size of this city it 1500 miles high, wide, and long. The shape must either be a pyramid or a cube because it has twelve foundations or levels. In all certainty it will most likely take the form of a cube because God has used this form before in both the altar of burnt offering and the altar of incense (Ex. 27:1, 30:2).
The ancient Greeks also regarded the cube as a symbol for perfection. Imagine a huge city in the shape of a cube twelve levels or floors high with a 216 foot wall around it. Each floor characterizes a different gem and the city itself is 1500 miles high! Can you imagine the amazement of John who is trying to describe this city?
A CITY WITH NO LANGUAGE BARRIERS, NO TEARS AND PAIN, NO SEAS TO SEPARATE US, AND A MILLIONFOLD INCREASE IN KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
The inhabitants of this city will all speak the same language, for no more will language divide the people (Zeph. 3:9). There will be no need for light; no need for the sun, moon, or the stars because all the light we will need will come from the presence of God: His light will illuminate the whole city. There will be no night there. It will be a place of service and serving God. We won't be sitting around with wings, playing harps. It will be a perfect place with no more sin, tears, pain, sickness, disease, or pestilence. There will be no more sea and oceans to separate people from their loved ones on the new earth. This city will last forever and we will be able to understand all things, our knowledge will increase million-fold far surpassing that of any earth bound genius.
Those living on the new earth - redeemed Israel and the saved multitudes of the Millennium will have access to the holy city while the Church Age saints will be its residents (Rev. 21:24-26,Is. 64:4).
So people on the earth will have access to it, but they may not live there. The only ones who can live in the city are those who come out of the tribulation period itself. Those who were the Father’s Bride in heaven.
READ ABOUT THE NEW JERUSALEM IN REVELATION 21
After John is given [audio cuts out] that all things he saw and events would come to pass. And so, that was his description. You can read about it in Revelation, chapter 21. You can read about the Battle of Armageddon, the second coming of Christ, in Revelation, chapter 19.
TRIBULATION TIMELINE OF EVENTS
And this wraps up the show for tonight. I’m being told I have 90 seconds left. And so, these shows go quick. And so, folks, I wanna give you a rundown of the things that happen after [audio cuts out]—after the judgments on earth in relating to the trumpets and the bowls. You can also go to my website. I have a page on the tribulation period at Tribulation Timeline of Events.
Be back on Wednesday at noon with my half-hour show. And Friday at noon.
Till then, everybody. Yah bless.

THE SIGNS ANNOUNCING THE END TIMES, IN THE BOOK OF MATTHEW, ALSO CORRELATE WITH THE SEVEN SEALS OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION
And hello, everybody. Welcome to the show. I’m Sherry Shriner. A couple things I wanna talk about today. You know, I’ve been spending the last couple weeks in Bible prophecy. And so, kind of want to stay there tonight. Talk about the second coming of Christ and the millennial reign. And I wrote articles on this years ago. It’s on my website.
One of the interesting aspects is that whenever you talk about the second coming of Christ, people head to Matthew 24. That is, like, the most dominant scripture for the return of Christ in the Bible. Everybody heads there. And so, I wanna talk about that tonight. And on into some other things.
You know, the signs of Matthew announcing the end also correlate with the seven seals of Revelation, folks. In Matthew 24, verses 4-14, we’re given what are signs or labor pains. These are events that will occur over time, becoming stronger and stronger as the last days get nearer and nearer. And that is why and how I discovered that they correlate to the book of Revelation itself.
THE MANY FALSE PROPHETS IN MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE FIRST SEAL, THE WHITE HORSE OF REVELATION 6
If you look at Matthew 24 [verse 5], the many false prophets, it corresponds to the first seal, the white horse in Revelation 6. Another way of looking at that. It says,
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
in Matthew 24. And in Revelation 6 [verses 1 and 2], it says,
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
And if you correlate that with false prophets, they conquer, and they conquer the people with false doctrines and false teachings, while they claim everybody else is false, of course. And so, they spread out to build their followings.
You know, one of the things the Father was telling me on Sabbath day was that they build followers, they don’t fill His kingdom with sheep, they build followers of themselves. And so, so many. I’m not just talking about the people out there claiming they’re Jesus Christ, but all these false prophets making YouTube videos, coming out against me, against the truth. They hate, they spit venom, they build their follower bases. They don’t tell you to go sit at the Father’s feet, and to ask Him for the truth in all things. They want you to go to their YouTube channels and see what they say the truth is. And that’s not how it is, folks. That’s not how a real prophet works. A real prophet points you to the Father Himself.
THE WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS IN MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE SECOND SEAL, THE RED HORSE IN REVELATION 6
In Matthew 24 [verses 6 and 7] you have the wars and rumors of wars. And this corresponds to the second seal, the red horse in Revelation 6.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
In Revelation 6 [verses 3 and 4] we see,
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
So the rider of the red horse is war. Takes peace from the earth. Not just war, but also terrorism, these false flags. Taking peace.
THE FAMINES OF MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE SIXTH SEAL, THE BLACK HORSE IN REVELATION 6
The famines of Matthew 24 corresponds to the sixth seal, the black horse in Revelation 6. In Matthew 24 [verse 7] it says,
7 …and there shall be famines
In Revelation 6 [verses 5 and 6] it says,
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
A lot of famines coming.
THE EARTHQUAKES OF MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE FOURTH SEAL, THE PALE GREEN HORSE IN REVELATION 6
The earthquakes of Matthew 24 corresponds to the fourth seal, the pale green horse in Revelation 6. Matthew 24 [verse 7], it says,
7 …and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
In Revelation 6 [verses 7 and 8], it says,
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
The earthquakes can be literal, as in earthquakes, plates moving. It can also—in the Hebrew, is shakings and quakings.
THE PERSECUTIONS AND TORTURES TO THE ELECT OF MATTHEW 24 CORRESPOND TO THE FIFTH SEAL IN REVELATION 6
Number five, the persecutions and tortures to the Elect of Matthew 24 corresponds to the fifth seal in Revelation 6.
In Matthew 24 [verses 8 and 9], it says,
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Revelation 6:9,
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Many, many Christians being targeted and persecuted throughout the world already for their faith. Asians being wiped out for being Christians. Africa, whole communities being destroyed by the Muslims for being Christians. Many will fall away. Lawlessness. The love of many will grow cold.
And, yet, the good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed to the whole world. And as you know, the Internet is, already, all around the world, people know who Yahushua is, who Jesus is, who a Christian is, what a Christian is.
IN MATTHEW 24, THE LORD IS DESCRIBING THE BUILDUP OF TIME UP UNTIL HIS SECOND COMING
In Matthew 24, the pains get progressively worse. He’s describing a whole buildup of time, up until His second coming. So it’s encompassing, not just a three-, or four-, or five-year period of time, it’s encompassing what’s going on up to the time of His second coming.
WHAT THE LORD IS NOT COMING TO DO DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD
The tribulation period is about the Lord’s judgment on the wicked. Yes, they will persecute and destroy many, and they already are. But when the bowl judgments begin, the last set of judgments during the tribulation period, it’s over for them. Because the last half—what we term the last part—of the tribulation period, it is His wrath and judgment on the wicked. The Lord is returning, not to revamp our failing economic systems, He’s not coming to cleanse the earth and teach people how to ascend to a higher spirituality, a higher dimension, He’s not gonna revamp our health care or save our dying ecosystems. He’s not coming to distribute wealth among the poor, form coalitions, or unite mankind. He is coming to destroy the wicked off the face of the earth.
In Malachi 4 [verse 1] we read,
4 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
Not one of them left. This is the elite. This is all the wicked and the proud. [Malachi 4:2-6]
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
What is the curse?
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
That’s Isaiah 11:4.
WHAT THE WEATHER WILL BE LIKE IN THE DAY YAHUSHUA RETURNS TO EARTH
He gives us a description of what the weather would be like in the day He returns to earth. In Matthew 24:29 and 30.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes (the nations) of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
In Zachariah you read that the clouds are His people. He is returning with His Elect and His Bride. He’s coming in the clouds. It refers to His groups of people.
MOST PEOPLE HAVE CONVENIENTLY IGNORED THAT THE FATHER SENDS HIS PEOPLE OUT, DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD, TO DESTROY THE WICKED – WHO WILL STAND UP FOR THE FATHER?
All these events happening shortly before He returns at the second coming. And I already went through the seals and the trumpet judgments, folks. What I find interesting is most people have conveniently ignored—one of the biggest parts of the tribulation period is that the Father sends His people out to destroy the wicked. He’s not going to do—He’s going to do it, but He’s gonna direct His people.
You know, we have this victim mentality that everybody’s—that he’s [Satan’s] always gonna be able to destroy us, and we’re always just to lay back and be doormats for evil. And some of you are so pathetic that if Satan walked in your house, you would offer him a cup of tea. You’ve become so soft against evil.
Let me tell you something. There is a difference between loving your enemies and the Father’s enemies. There’s a difference. We all have enemies, but the Father’s enemies, they’re my enemies. And that’s the mentality you should have. The Father’s enemies should be yours. He asks in Psalms who would stand up for Him against the wicked? Because the church is in bed with them. They’re so soft on evil that’s why we’re in the conditions we’re in.
A warrior, someone who truly loves the Father, would want to rise up against His enemies. Now, I’m not saying you have to rise up in a violent way. What we do isn’t violent. We put out aether energy. And aether energy is a pure form of living energy. And guess what it does. It destroys anything evil. Hm-hm. The Father’s ways are a little bit different than our ways, folks.
BEFORE YAHUSHUA EVEN RETURNS TO EARTH, THE HEAVENS ARE IN CHAOS
Before Yahushua even returns to earth, the heavens are in chaos. The fallen angels have been cast down to earth. All of the angels that inhabit our skies, and under our earth, on the earth, they’ve mixed with mankind, it’s dark, there’s no food, there’s plagues and pestilences, famines everywhere. Babylon’s been destroyed, and whole nations have been destroyed. Billions of people have been killed that didn’t get away from the coastlines. They’ve been warned to get off the coastlines. And when He comes, it’s more like a victory march. He’s gonna come defeat the final remnant of wicked that are on the earth. And He’s coming in the clouds with His people.
Wanna read this. Matthew 24, verse 31 [and verse 37]. We’ll start at 24:29.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
THE ELECT ARE ALREADY IN HEAVEN, DOING EXPLOITS FOR THE FATHER, BEFORE YAHUSHUA GATHERS THEM FOR HIS ARRIVAL AT THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON
I wanted to point this out, because people misinterpret this part of the scripture.
31 And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet. And they shall gather together His elect from the four winds. From one end of heaven to the other.
Not one end of earth to the other. The Elect are already in heaven. What are they doing in heaven? They’re the ones casting down Satan and his minions. They’re busy doing exploits for the Father in heaven. And what He does, before He arrives to earth is He gathers all the Elect who are off doing exploits, so that they can arrive to earth with Him at the Battle of Armageddon.
WHILE THE ELECT ARE BUSY DESTROYING THE WICKED OUT OF SPACE, IT WILL BE THE MANTLE OF THE IT WILL BE THE MANTILE OF THE FATHER’S PEOPLE WHO ARE LEFT ON EARTH TO RISE UP AND DESTROY THE WICKED
See, you all think we’re up in heaven sitting on harps—playing string instruments, sitting on clouds. No, we’re busy. We’re busy. We’re gonna be helping the angels cast Satan’s minions down to earth. And they’re everywhere. They’re from one end of the solar system to the other. They’ve got exoplanets everywhere. They’ve got humans stashed everywhere. We’re gonna be busy freeing the captives. Freeing the humans, destroying the wicked in space, casting them out of space. We get to help with that. Now it sounds fun, huh? Because while we’re busy destroying all the wicked out of space, the Father’s people that are left on earth are gonna be busy destroying the wicked left on the earth. It will be their mantle to rise up and destroy the wicked.
THE ELECT OPERATES IN THE POWER AND SPIRIT OF ENOCH, AND THE BRIDE OPERATES IN THE POWER AND SPIRIT OF ELIJAH
And I point this out in my article, because it’s a truth we’ve missed for ages, folks. Are the Elect and the Bride the same two groups? No, they’re different groups. The Elect are part of the Bride, but they are also a group to themselves. In the Hebrew translations, “elect” was lost. It was—they translated it elect, it should have been firstborn, firstfruits. Bride is a different term. I wrote an article about it, The Two Groups of 144,000, and they have different roles on the earth. And what I find interesting is that one group, the Elect, operates in the power and spirit of Enoch. And the other one is the Bride, that operates in the power and spirit of Elijah. Interesting, huh? Enoch and Elijah. Good way of looking at the two different groups of the Elect and the Bride.
Because I always saw Enoch associated with the Elect. Always saw him associated with that group. And that’s why. Because we operate in his spirit and the way he did things. And he was the man—one of the greatest patriarchs on earth, one of the greatest biblical prophets, and the churches don’t even teach who he is. That’s how pathetic they are.
You can go to my website and read my article on the two groups of 144,000. Why are there two groups? The churches only teach one, when there’s two. I’m not gonna get into that tonight.
THE APPAREL OF THE SAINTS WHO RETURN WITH YAHUSHUA
We’re gonna jump on ahead [inaudible] the second coming. [reading occasionally from her article The Battle of Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ]
Yahushua predicted the suddenness of His coming, when He said, in Matthew 24 [verse 27],
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
In Zechariah 14:15 [Sherry means 14:5 –transcriber]—Zechariah, that was the scripture I was talking about. What are these clouds? They are the saints returning with Jesus/Yahushua wearing white robes. In Hebrews 12:1, believers are referred to as a cloud of witnesses. The clouds, then, would all be the church-age believers returning in immortal glorified bodies, with Yahushua, in the air. This will also include the resurrected Old Testament saints; Revelation 19, verse 14. And as the prophet Zechariah predicted,
5 and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
Zechariah 14:5.
The apostle John speaks of the apparel of the saints as they return with Christ.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
Revelation 19:14j. He explains the white linen robes.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Revelation 19:8.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YAHUSHUA STANDS ON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES – THE LAST GLOBAL CONFLICT DESCRIBES A GREAT THERMONUCLEAR AND/OR CHEMICAL WAR
And after the sign of the son of man in the heavens, He will return, and they will see His destination is to the Mount of Olives, and move over to the Valley of Jehoshaphat, as a combined effort, to where the Mount of Olives is located.
It is in this Valley of Jehoshaphat, which we know as Armageddon, that Jesus will destroy the remaining armies on the earth and set His feet on the mount where they belonged so long ago, left from when He was there as a suffering Messiah. And that’s depicted in Zechariah 14,
When His feet touched the mount, a great earthquake results, splitting the mount from east to west. Causing a great gap as one half of the mount moves north, and the other south. It is at this time that the surviving Jewish remnant will understand the prophecy that this valley caused by the earthquake between the mount has been created for them. They will flee and run into it for protection from the terrible judgment that is about to be poured out on the surrounding armies described in Zechariah 14, verses 4,5,11, and 12.
His feet shall stand, in that day, on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem in the east, and the mount shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west. And there shall be a great valley. And half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains, and there shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem. Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
This is exactly what would happen if someone was caught in the middle of a thermonuclear blast, or exposed to an unprecedented chemical warfare blast. In their attempts to destroy Yahushua and His saints, these armies will destroy themselves.
This last global conflict describes a great thermonuclear and/or chemical war. It is a nuclear war that will cause the sun to lose its shining in a chemical war that could, along with a nuclear blast, describe the other effects. Of course, a thermonuclear blast itself could melt the skin off the soldiers in the surrounding armies and cause their eyes to sink back in their heads. For most of these armies, the last thing they will see on earth is Yahushua and His saints.
As Armageddon begins, Israel will defend itself against the threat of total annihilation by the Orient, the kings of the East, and empty its own nuclear arsenal on its approaching enemies.
THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON AS DESCRIBED IN REVELATION 19
As we read—where was that—Revelation, chapter 16, when the Euphrates is dried up, and the kings of the East, Asia, begin to make their way up the Euphrates and head towards Israel. The Battle of Armageddon itself is described in Revelation, chapter 19 [verses 11-19].
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his (robe) and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
And how does this war go?
20 And the beast was taken (captured), and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the (rest) were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN LUCIFERS GATHERS HIS ARMIES AT MOUNT MEGIDDO TO FIGHT AGAINST YAHUSHUA
Satan himself will eventually join them in the lake of fire. After the 1,000-year millennial reign. But what we see is the kings of the east, and the Antichrist and False Prophet gathering the armies of the earth that are left and able to gather and get over to Israel.
I don’t know what they’re gonna say. They’re gonna say that there’s some kind of alien attack coming from space or something. They’re gonna have to come up with something good. Because they get the world’s armies in Israel ready for a fight as they come upon Israel. Because Lucifer knows Yahushua’s gonna return. He knows it. And so, he gathers all the world’s armies in the Valley of Jehoshaphat, which we call Armageddon, because there’s a hill there, the Mount Megiddo. And he gathers them.
And what happens is Yahushua—you see the sign of the Son of man flash across the sky. He descends to earth with His armies, the hosts of heavens. His feet touch the Mount of Olives, a huge earthquake takes place, the remnant of the people in Israel head for safety in the valley that’s created by this great earthquake. And then His judgments are pronounced. And the armies gathered in Israel, every single one of them, are annihilated. And the birds feast of what’s left of their flesh.
I think there’s a description somewhere. That the destruction and carnage is about seven miles long. So many armies are there. Seven miles long. The Antichrist and the False Prophet are captured and chained by an angel, and they’re cast into the lake of fire. A angel. One angel, that’s all it takes to chain one of them and cast them into the lake of fire. These people aren’t bigger than life, larger than life beings, easily detained by an angel. So is Lucifer. He’s captured, and he’s put in chains, and he’s thrown into outer darkness, into the bottomless pit for a thousand years. He’s thrown into space, in chains. Can’t move, can’t do a thing, for a thousand years, until he is released again.
Now, what’s happening on earth is the Father’s going through His judgments on earth. The nations—you have the sheep—the judgment of the nations, the sheep and the goats. And you have the earth being destroyed and then replenished for 1,000 years while He has His reign on earth.
[cat meows in the background] [referring to her home] Boy, this place is just going ballistic. The cats are meowing, the dogs are barking. It’s the Monday night zoo. I have no idea what’s going on outside. I am busy. [laughs] You all have to look outside, look over at my house, and see what’s going on around here.
THE GOG AND MAGOG WAR DOES NOT HAPPEN UNTIL THE END OF THE 1,000-YEAR MILLENNIAL REIGN
All right. So let’s move on, because this is part of what has a lot of people…a lot of people misinterpreting the war with Russia, Gog and Magog War. That doesn’t happen this side of the millennium, folks. You’re all looking for a Russian war right now, it’s not happening. It doesn’t happen till the end of the 1,000-year millennial reign. So that’s not happening, and I’ve written an article on prophecy errors, where people have erred in interpreting prophecy. So I’m not gonna get into the millennial reign right now, for some reason. Uh, hm, I don’t know where my stuff is. I didn’t pull that article out.
JERUSALEM WILL BE REESTABLISHED AS THE FATHER’S CITY ON EARTH AFTER THE JUDGMENTS OF THE GOAT AND SHEEP NATIONS
Well, let’s describe…let’s describe some stuff going on afterwards. During the 1,000-year millennial reign. And you have to understand that Jerusalem will be reestablished as the Father’s city on earth. This is after the judgments of the goat and sheep nations. The goat nations who are cruel to Israel will be destroyed. And I’m not talking about the land of Israel, I’m talking about the people. The people of Israel, not the land. And those who were good.
And who’s Israel? His people. The ones who followed Him. Christians, Messianic Jews. The ones who follow the Lord are His people. It’s not talking about literal Jews, because the literal Jews that call themselves Jews, are fakes, they’re Satanists, they’re Khazarians. Ashkenazi Jews. It’s exactly what they are, they’re fakes. They are the ones who dominate Israel today. There is a remnant of Torah-believer Jews over there, but they persecute them, they persecute Christians over there. That’s why you’ll find more believers in America, and more real Jews in New York City, than you will in the land of Israel. It’s dominated by the Satanists.
IN THE NEW JERUSALEM, GOD WILL DWELL WITH MAN
So let’s jump ahead into eternity. Jump ahead. In Revelation, chapter 1, [verse] 21 it says [reading from her article, Eternity],
After the vision of the Great White Throne is completed John described the passing away of the heaven and the earth: "And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea" (Rev. 21:1).
At this time in prophecy we are now entering into Eternity. There are no more specific event-filled times given for us to know about now, no more judgments listed, no more rebellion and sin, or Satan. It will be a time of God and man in perfect eternal peace with each other. God will create a new heaven and a new earth. The former will be totally destroyed.
John then sees a vision of our new home: "And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven" (Rev. 21:2). Scripture describes this new Jerusalem as a literal city made of real material and precise dimensions. Jerusalem is the city that God loves the most above all others. It will be His capital city and all the saints will dwell in it with Him (Is. 2:2-4). Throughout mankind's history God has been in heaven while man has inhabited earth, but in the new Jerusalem God will dwell with man. It will be God's home with His saints. When Jesus was here He didn't have a place to lay his head, but in the new Jerusalem, we will be in His home created for us and we will be with Him.
THE SAINTS WHO INHABIT THIS CITY WILL HAVE GLORIFIED BODIES CAPABLE OF TRANSCENDING SPACE AND DEVOURING DISTANCES IN A FRACTION OF A SECOND
It will come down from heaven and be a city of great magnitude. Those saints who will inhabit this city will have glorified bodies capable of transcending space and devouring distances in a fraction of a second. There will be no need for any type or system of transportation because we will be able to transport ourselves more easily and efficiently than a mode of material transportation.
THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH WILL WALK IN THE LIGHT OF THE NEW JERUSALEM
The location of this city is not specifically given but the vision John had indicates that this new Jerusalem comes close to the earth but he never said that it actually sits or directly rests on the earth. It is spoken of as "the Jerusalem which is above". The nations of the earth will "walk in its light" which implies that this city is above them (Is. 2:2).
ON THE 12 GATES OF THE NEW JERUSALEM ARE THE NAMES OF THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL, ON THE 12 FOUNDATIONS OF THE WALLS OF THE CITY ARE THE NAMES OF THE 12 APOSTLES
In visionary detail John described this city: "Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. On the east three gates, on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb...
THE NEW JERUSALEM IS APPROXIMATELY 1500 MILES LONG, 1500 MILES WIDE, AND 1500 MILES HIGH
And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs ( a furlong is about six hundred feet, which means that this new Jerusalem is approximately 1500 miles long, 1500 miles wide, and 1500 miles high.
The base of this city would be in comparison to about two-thirds of the size of the United States). And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits (216 feet high), according to the measure of man...
A CITY OF GOLD AND PRECIOUS STONES OF MANY COLORS
And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones.
The first foundation was jasper (crystalline quartz); the second, sapphire (brilliant blue); the third, a chalcedony (pale blue or gray); the fourth, an emerald (bright green); the fifth, a sardonyx (deep orange-red); the sixth, sardius (bright red); the seventh, chrysolyte (transparent gold or some suggest olive green); the eighth, beryl (bluish green); the ninth, a topaz (dark blue or some suggest yellow sapphire); the tenth, chrysoprasus (apple green); the eleventh, jacinth (violet); the twelfth, an amethyst (deep or clear purple or bluish violet). And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every single gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were a transparent glass.
A CITY LIT BY THE GLORY OF GOD, THE LAMB OF GOD, YAHUSHUA
And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there....
THEY WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THE LAMB’S BOOK OF LIFE SHALL ENTER INTO THE NEW JERUSALEM
And there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's Book of Life" (Rev. 21:11-27).
IMAGINE A HUGE CITY IN THE SHAPE OF A CUBE TWELVES LEVELS OR FLOORS HIGH WITH A 216-FOOT WALL AROUND IT
This new Jerusalem is a prepared place of gold, pearls, and precious stones for a prepared people. The size of this city it 1500 miles high, wide, and long. The shape must either be a pyramid or a cube because it has twelve foundations or levels. In all certainty it will most likely take the form of a cube because God has used this form before in both the altar of burnt offering and the altar of incense (Ex. 27:1, 30:2).
The ancient Greeks also regarded the cube as a symbol for perfection. Imagine a huge city in the shape of a cube twelve levels or floors high with a 216 foot wall around it. Each floor characterizes a different gem and the city itself is 1500 miles high! Can you imagine the amazement of John who is trying to describe this city?
A CITY WITH NO LANGUAGE BARRIERS, NO TEARS AND PAIN, NO SEAS TO SEPARATE US, AND A MILLIONFOLD INCREASE IN KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
The inhabitants of this city will all speak the same language, for no more will language divide the people (Zeph. 3:9). There will be no need for light; no need for the sun, moon, or the stars because all the light we will need will come from the presence of God: His light will illuminate the whole city. There will be no night there. It will be a place of service and serving God. We won't be sitting around with wings, playing harps. It will be a perfect place with no more sin, tears, pain, sickness, disease, or pestilence. There will be no more sea and oceans to separate people from their loved ones on the new earth. This city will last forever and we will be able to understand all things, our knowledge will increase million-fold far surpassing that of any earth bound genius.
Those living on the new earth - redeemed Israel and the saved multitudes of the Millennium will have access to the holy city while the Church Age saints will be its residents (Rev. 21:24-26,Is. 64:4).
So people on the earth will have access to it, but they may not live there. The only ones who can live in the city are those who come out of the tribulation period itself. Those who were the Father’s Bride in heaven.
READ ABOUT THE NEW JERUSALEM IN REVELATION 21
After John is given [audio cuts out] that all things he saw and events would come to pass. And so, that was his description. You can read about it in Revelation, chapter 21. You can read about the Battle of Armageddon, the second coming of Christ, in Revelation, chapter 19.
TRIBULATION TIMELINE OF EVENTS
And this wraps up the show for tonight. I’m being told I have 90 seconds left. And so, these shows go quick. And so, folks, I wanna give you a rundown of the things that happen after [audio cuts out]—after the judgments on earth in relating to the trumpets and the bowls. You can also go to my website. I have a page on the tribulation period at Tribulation Timeline of Events.
Be back on Wednesday at noon with my half-hour show. And Friday at noon.
Till then, everybody. Yah bless.
