Why a One World Government, End Times and Revelation

Do you believe we are close to a one world government? We at B. C. Ministries, Inc. believe that our global world is on the brink of having a one world government.

For one thing, simply look at the global economy. Not only is the United States in trouble economically, but so too are most of the other nations of the world. Of course there are a few exceptions. China isn’t in trouble financially. However, she is in trouble over her water sources. We could see a huge confrontation for water rights, soon.

The third world countries that are selling oil to the world are having no problem with their economy. However, both China and these third world countries will be part of the armies that come against the Jews and Christ during and at the end of the tribulation period.

However, in order for the anti-christ to rule the entire world, he must first have a solution to help all the countries of the world. He will be able to do this.

In Revelation 6 the anti-christ is pictured as the rider on the white horse (v 2). The person on the white horse has a crown and a bow. He goes out conquering and to conquer. The anti-christ pictured here begins his conquest of the entire world, i.e. one world government.

Notice that the rider has a bow but no arrows. How is he going to make war if he has nothing of conventional warfare with which to use. He conquers through and by healing the economies of the world and through diplomacy. In the end anyone who buys or sells must have his approval—his mark—one their forehead or hand.

Our question isn’t, “Will there be a one world government, but when will it take place?” Something or someone has to fix the global economy! We believe this will happen real soon.

End Times, Lights Out and Revelation

Jesus tells you in Matthew 24:29, Immediately after the tribulation of those days the Sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall form the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

There will be a brief period of time on earth where there will be no light. Some who lives in western Kentucky witnessed a time of power outage in February, 2009. An ice storm left many without electricity for several weeks.

However, at night the lights of the stars and moon shown through. It wasn't totally dark!

Jesus tells you that it will be totally dark before He comes back. The created is being prepared for its Creator to return. When Jesus comes back, He will give the world light.

Ironic as it may seem, the above prediction came from Isaiah over 700 years before Jesus confirmed Isaiah's words (Isaiah 13:10). Further, Isaiah gives you a preview of this scientific event in 30:26.

The event above can be explained scientificly. When a star novaes, it burns 7 times brighter just prior to going out completely. This would explain Isaiah saying, "The light of the moon will be as the light of the sun. . .the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days. . ."

Even without scientific knowledge, Isaiah knew this event would happen before Jesus returns.

The 144,000 Sealed Evangelists of Revelation

In chapter 7 of Revelation, 144000 super evangelists are sealed (given God’s protection) to take the gospel of Jesus to the entire world. The anti-christ and his regime can not prevent these evangelists from doing their great works.

The 144000 super evangelists take God’s amazing grace to every person alive on the planet. Jesus said in Matthew 24:14, “This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.”

From where do the 144000 evangelists come? John tells you that they are from the 12 tribes of Israel. They are Jews with very Jewish names. Wonder if some of them are women (God forbid)?

Since they have to take their message to the whole world, they will have to speak in tongues (Oh no! Tongues died with the 12 apostles)! Do you see how silly some of our modern beliefs have become?

There are so many other interesting things about these 144000 sealed, super evangelists in our study of Revelation. Get your copy today.

The Mount Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24 and Revelation

When you compare the Mount Olivet Discourse of Jesus and Revelation in Matthew 24, you find that both of them contain much similar information. However, the Mount Olivet Discourse was spoken by Jesus, Himself.

The Mount Olivet Discourse of Jesus in Matthew 24 bridges the gap between Old Testament writers and Revelation. Jesus’ discussion with His disciples on the Mount of Olives about end times, makes the same topics of the Old Testament complete. Until Jesus gave His version of end times, for instance, you didn’t know exactly which times the prophets of old meant.

When Jesus told His disciples in Matthew 24 what to expect as the end of the world time drew near, He filled in several bits of information about expectations concerning the rapture of the church and the tribulation period. In other words Jesus gave us two separate times from which to view end time prophesies.

His discourse on Mount Olivet gave some enlightening information about the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem in AD 70 by Rome. Jesus had touched on this destruction in a couple other places, too. In Luke 21:20, 21, “When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then recognize that its desolation has come near. Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains! Those inside the city must leave it, and those who are in the country must not enter it.”

Why was Jerusalem being destroyed? Jesus explains this. He cries over the city (Matthew 23, and then He tells them that the city will be destroyed because they did not recognize the time of their visitation (Luke 21). In other words Jesus tells them that he brought the kingdom of God to them, and they rejected it.

Jesus warned them, too, that  “your enemies will build an embankment against you…” (Luke 20). The Mount Olivet discourse gave them other information about this destruction. Together with the book of Hebrews, the believing Jews—those who had accepted Jesus as Lord—were able to escape the destruction of the city in AD 79.

One thing we know from historians of that day, the city was surrounded and an embankment build against it, but the Roman general heard a rumor that Egypt was coming to the aid of Jerusalem. He pulled back his troops to meet the fictitious army. Therefore, those who knew the words of Luke and Matthew, fled. When the city fell, not a single believing Jew was killed in the destruction.

The Mount Olivet discourse from Matthew 24 and Revelation have so much other interesting information. You can learn how to acquire the information about both from the below. All you need do is email me with your request.
