end times scenarios – OmegaBooks

This post will be short, but it is something I must write as I now do scriptural research regarding the so-called “end times” which likely leads to ‘the great tribulation.’ Of course, only God knows, but still….it just seems like we are heading into this time frame.

Do not assume the war between Israel and Iran sparked this scenario; after all, the two nations have been wanting to ‘war’ each other for years now. All those videos and pictures of Israeli PM Netanyahu claiming Iran is building a nuclear weapon….since the 90s! Then you have various US officials claiming Iran does not have nukes… but they have enrichment facilities that US president Trump wants them to shut down… There are time I wonder if Trump thinks he controls the Middle East… Hmmmmmmm….. He claims to want peace but seems to be threatening Iran’s government, which, right now according to videos and news sources, is bombing the heck out of Israel! My advice to Trump (not that he cares, but still….)–let these two nations fight it out and do not get the US militarily involved in this (you know, the draft? Remember Vietnam? I do, which is why I hate war! My brother lost one of his best friends…for nothing!)

Harking back to my previous post which states that the Bible claims there will be wars and rumors of wars and nations against nations and earthquakes in various places and famines (Gaza, but maybe also North Korea, parts of Africa, and other places) and also persecution of believers on Christ (including in Israel, where Christian broadcast networks show videos of Orthodox Jews spitting on Christians there), all of this is happening now; however, these events have been going on for many, many years. Can one recall any year over the past several hundred years that had no wars, no earthquakes, no famines, no religious persecution of believers, including persecutions of Christians…by Christians? Reformation and all that…. So, it isn’t as if these events are just happening now. But they do seem to be having a more negative effect.

Finally, technocracy is rising, which reminds me of what Christ said about ‘the days of Noah.’ During the days of Noah, what are now considered technocrats were, back then, folks who messed with human DNA. Genesis Chapter Six says it all: the sons of God (fallen angels) mated with the daughters of men to produce “giants” also called “nephelim”–part human, part non-human… Or, today it might be called “transhuman,” where folks are implanted with chips or whatever that changes DNA (uh, Covid “vaccines” maybe?). To where humans merge with “the cloud” or technology to “live forever.”

And another thing which is concerning: AI, or “artificial intelligence,” which can create whatever written paper or video or picture out of thin air with some form of human guidance…or not. This AI generation can possibly even create a fake “rapture” in order to get those believers of the so-called “pre-trib rapture” of the church–who see beings being “raptured” in the air but are not “raptured” themselves–to “backslide” against Christ because they thought they’d be raptured and were not–which angers them maybe into thinking all that Biblical prophecy stuff is BS and leave the Body of Christ behind….now wouldn’t Satan or the Anti-Christ love that one! It is this “fake rapture” possibility that is causing me to do more research on end-times prophecy and a likely conclusion there is no “pre-trib rapture.” It is more likely to happen AFTER the tribulation when the “wrath of God” takes place and Christ returns, the “second coming”…whenever that will be. Only God knows, and I suspect modern-day prophecy preachers have no clue.

More to come soon…but I will be busy this week and next week. Cheers!

It has been a few weeks since my last post, but that is because I have not been able to decide what the next post would be—another snippet post, or something completely different?

This will be something different, because over the last couple of weeks (while busy with other stuff), thoughts or inspirations have entered my mind regarding a possible new novel, but related to previous novels (most likely, another spin-off of The Prodigal Band Trilogy, as The Murder Rule is).

After completing the third novel in the trilogy, The Prodigal Band, I considered writing an “aftermath” type novel explaining what happens after the climactic events of this novel—after the band rescues keyboard-synthist Bry’s wife Mo from the evil satanically possessed Mark Besst who was about to impale her, the satan-figure, Corion, captures Besst within the evil red crystal the evil one uses to capture human souls. Further, the good spirit being used by God’s angels, the Tooters, called Morwenna, returns “home” to heaven, her missions having been accomplished, as she lets her employers, singer Erik and his wife, Ger, know via a note she left for them.

But, then what? Is there more to this story? The narrator of this novel, pop culture pundit Lloyd Denholm, surmises at the end of the novel that the prodigal band members, given “missions of God” by the Tooters, will complete their missions and spend eternity in Heaven, being “good and faithful servants.”

Thus, I have been thinking how this “aftermath” plays out. The six band members complete their missions, and pass on at some point, souls in Heaven. However, what is Heaven really like? Is it that “void” I’ve had them in, a white, timeless, soundless, sight-less, void that contains “dots” or “lines” as they move through the void? (Note: refer to Chapter Eleven of The Prodigal Band.) The Bible mentions “streets of gold,” “crystal seas,” and other beauty, but still…what does it look like for sure? What does God look like…after all, the Book of Genesis says God made man in His—actually, “our” image—while the Gospel of John Chapter One says “the Word” (Christ) was with God and was God. Thus “our” image…but still, what do these “images” look like? What does the Judgment Seat (Book of Revelation) look like? What does the “accuser,” Satan, look like…and does he have “devil horns”?

The other possibility is an “aftermath” predicting the “end times” narrated by one of the novel characters, possibly one from The Murder Rule, with a scenario of how the next few years historically and spiritually plays out, for we do seem to be entering what looks to be very dangerous times, wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes in diverse places…for instance, several in my area north of here, possibly due to oil fracking (after all, north of me is the Permian Basin, where the oil producing industry is huge, likely the largest in the US). And all those preachers predicting end-times events (such as the timing of ‘the rapture,’ and more…only God knows, right?).

So that, hopefully soon, I will be inspired, somehow, to begin writing the next novel, for it seems to me that time is getting short.
