REV 16
8Then the FOURTH Angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and was given power to burn mankind with fire. 9And they were burned by the immense heat, but still cursed the Name of YAHUSHA, who had control over these plagues, and they refused to repent and give Him esteem.
WE SHOULD BE ASTOUNDED TO READ THAT EVEN WHEN THE SUN BEGINS ACTING AS AN ENEMY TO MANKIND, THE REACTION OF HUMANITY WILL BE TO CURSE THE NAME OF YAHUSHA. IN OTHER WORDS (AS WITH THE PHARAOH IN EGYPT) THE HEARTS OF THE WORLD'S REMAINING POPULATION WILL BECOME SO HARDENED TOWARDS YAHUSHA THAT EVEN THOUGH HE’S MADE IT CLEAR ...
IS IT ANY DIFFERENT IN OUR SOCIETY TODAY?
SATAN HAS SOWED HIS EVIL CORRUPTIBLE SEED WELL, AND DEEP AMONG THE ROOTS OF MANKIND. BUT FOR THAT SEGMENT OF UNREPENTANT HUMANITY, WHO REFUSE TO GET RID OF THIS EVIL SEED BY BEING WASHED IN THE BLOOD OF YAHUSHA ... THE END IS NEAR …
NEARER THAN WE THINK!
THE KINGDOM OF THE BEAST IS PEOPLE WITH A SPECIFIC BEHAVIOUR (JUST AS THE KINGDOM OF YAHUSHA IS). THE BEAST'S KINGDOM IS UNREPENTANT MANKIND, WHO CHOOSE TO WEAR HIS MARK (BEHAVIOUR) THAT IDENTIFIES THEM AS SATAN'S FOLLOWERS. THE 5TH BOWL IS POURED OUT SPECIFICALLY ON THE "THRONE OF THE BEAST" - WHICH DANIEL SAYS IS THE ABOMINATION THAT LAYS WASTE (THE DEVIL SEATED IN THE HEARTS OF PEOPLE) ... SO THE VERY ECONOMIC, POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS SYSTEM OF THE ‘INVINCIBLE BEAST’ (THAT HAS AWED THE WORLD) - NOW LOOKS COMPLETELY VULNERABLE.
MOST OF THE WORLD WORSHIPS THE SUN IN SOME FORM (WHETHER THEY KNOW IT OR NOT) AND NOW THE SUN, WHICH HAS BEEN THE SOURCE OF LIGHT, LIFE AND BLESSING, NOW BECOMES AN INSTRUMENT OF DIVINE JUDGMENT.
IN REV.6 & 8 THERE WERE SIGNS IN THE SUN, MOON AND STARS WITHIN THE SIXTH SEAL & FOURTH TRUMPET, AND NOW HERE A FURTHER SIGN IN THE SUN IS GIVEN UNDER THE FOURTH BOWL OF YAHUSHA’S WRATH.
... THAT HE'S THE ONE CAUSING THESE CALAMITIES AND IT'S HE WHO CONTROLS EVEN THE SUN WITH JUST A THOUGHT … RATHER THAN SUBMIT TO HIS MIGHTY AUTHORITY AND PLEAD FOR MERCY … THEY WILL ONLY CURSE HIM EVEN MORE.
THIS IS VIRTUALLY THE SAME STANCE TOWARDS YAHUSHA THAT SATAN HAS TAKEN SINCE THE BEGINNING. SATAN KNOWS WHO YAHUSHA IS, WHAT HE'S CAPABLE OF, AND YET RATHER THAN SUBMIT TO HIM, SATAN WILL FIGHT UNTIL HIS TOTAL DESTRUCTION.
10The FIFTH Angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and darkness covered the beast's kingdom. People gnawed on their tongues and gnashed their teeth because of the pain. 11And they cursed YAHUSHA, because of their pain and the sores they had all over them. But they still refused to repent from their evil behaviour.
THE WORD 'DARKNESS' MEANS 'BLIND OR EVIL OR SOMETHING THAT NEGATIVELY AFFECTS THE MIND'. PERHAPS THE EARTH IS VISIBLY DARKER DUE TO THE SMOKE THAT IS ARISING FROM THE ABYSS. DARKNESS SIGNIFIES 'THE ECLIPSE OF THE BEAST'S POWER … THE DIMMING OF THE POWERFUL INFLUENCE AND BEHAVIOURAL CONTROL'. THINK IN TERMS OF THE PLAGUE OF DARKNESS THAT YAHUAH INFLICTED UPON EGYPT:
EXODUS 10 “YAHUAH SAID TO MOSES, 'REACH OUT YOUR HAND TOWARD THE SKY, AND THERE WILL BE DARKNESS OVER THE LAND OF EGYPT, DARKNESS SO THICK IT CAN BE FELT!' SO MOSES REACHED OUT HIS HAND TOWARD THE SKY, AND THERE WAS A THICK DARKNESS IN THE ENTIRE LAND OF EGYPT FOR THREE DAYS. PEOPLE COULDN'T SEE EACH OTHER, AND NO ONE WENT ANYWHERE FOR THREE DAYS. BUT ALL THE PEOPLE OF YISHARAL HAD LIGHT IN THEIR HOMES”.
IN JOHN'S MIND, THE CONCEPT OF DARKNESS IS NOT LIKE NIGHTTIME, BUT A NEGATIVE, SPIRITUAL DECEPTION OR BLINDNESS. THE KINGDOM OF THE BEAST HAS JUST BEEN HIT WITH SPIRITUAL DARKNESS TO BLIND THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF PEOPLE. THEY COULD NO LONGER REPENT AND CHOOSE YAHUAH BECAUSE THE CAPABILITY TO SEE THE TRUTH HAS BEEN TAKEN FROM THEM.
TO 'GNAW THE TONGUE' MEANS THAT THEY ARE IN PHYSICAL AGUISH AND MENTAL DEPRESSION BECAUSE OF GREAT AGONY. AND YET WHAT IS THEIR RESPONSE TO THEIR PROBLEMS? THEY CURSE YAHUSHA AND REFUSE TO TURN FROM THEIR WRONG BEHAVIOUR. "TO TURN" IS EXACTLY WHAT REPENTANCE MEANS. AND WHY WOULD THE PEOPLE OF THE BEAST'S KINGDOM DO SUCH AN ILLOGICAL, IRRATIONAL THING AS TO CURSE YAHUSHA, WHO HOLDS COMPLETE SWAY OVER ALL THESE CALAMITIES THAT ARE DESTROYING THEIR LIVES? BECAUSE THESE FOLKS ARE UNDER SPIRITUAL DARKNESS AND CAN DO NOTHING OTHER THAN TO SHAKE THEIR FISTS DEFIANTLY AT THE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE.
HEBREW UNDERSTANDING:
"DARKNESS": obscurity, duskiness, misfortune, concealment, gloominess, thick, the withholding of light, be dim, hide, misery, destruction, death, ignorance, sorrow, wickednes, an envelop of density, also a cloud, to flee away, weary, to shroud, to languish, cover, be overwhelmed.
SCRIPTURE UNDERSTANDING
PROV 25:2 "It is the power of YAHUAH to conceal something, but the honour of Kings is to search out a matter".
HIS SPIRIT IS THE LIGHT THAT ALLOWS US TO UNDERSTAND HIS LIVING WORDS THROUGH THE POWER OF THE ABSTRACT.
ACTS 26:16 YAHUSHA said to me, "Rise up and stand on your feet for I've appeared to you for this purpose - to make you a servant and a witness, both of these things you've seen, and of those things which I'll show you. Delivering you from the people, and from the Gentiles, who I now send you to. To open their eyes, and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to YAHUAH, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are set-apart by belief in Me".
HAVING THE INCORRUPTIBLE SEED WITHIN US ALLOWS US TO NOT ONLY BE ADOPTED INTO A DIFFERENT REALM, BUT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THINGS IN OUR LIFE FROM YAHUSHA'S PERSPECTIVE.
John 8:12 "Then YAHUSHA spoke to them again, saying, “I'm the Light of the world, and anyone who follows Me won't walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”
1 JOHN 1:6 "If we say we have fellowship with YAHUSHA but still behave darkness (ie hate our brother or sister) we lie and don't practice the truth".
LUKE 11:34 "The eye is the lamp of your body, and when your eye is clear, your whole body is full of light - but when it's bad, your whole body is full of darkness".
THE DRAGON'S BEAST SYSTEM HAS INFILTRATED EVERY FACET OF HUMAN LIFE AND BEHAVIOUR TODAY, ENSURING THAT THE DIRTY CORRUPT SEED OF DARKNESS REMAINS IMBEDDED STRONGLY IN EVERY HUMAN, SLOWLY EATING AWAY AT THE PSYCHY TO CAUSE SUCH DEEP-SEATED ANXIETY, STRESS, TRAUMA AND DEPRESSION - FUELED MORE AND MORE BY CORRUPT THOUGHTS AND PERVERSE BEHAVIOUR, TO SEER AND SCAR THE CONSCIENCE - PUSHING A PERSON EVEN FURTHER OFF THE RAILS OF MENTAL STABILITY... WITH THE GOAL THAT THEY WILL KILL THEMSELF AND END UP JUST LIKE SATAN AND HIS DEMONS: DESTROYED!
Somebody suffering from a dark, deep suicidal depression is experiencing the same thick darkness that covered Egypt. A darkness caused by a lack of Yahusha’s light and by demons and wrong behaviour. It wasn’t just that they couldn’t physically see each other or make out their surroundings, they were completely overwhelmed by this dark atmosphere of impending doom from which there was no escape. But while Egypt was wallowing in terror, Yisharal was celebrating!
SUCH IS THE SAD STATE OF THE WORLD TODAY AND IT'S ONLY GETTING WORSE ... BUT WITH THE LIGHT OF YAHUSHA WITHIN US (AND 3 RULES TO ASSIST) ... WE CAN OFFER PEOPLE YAHUSHA'S FORGIVENESS AND A FRESH NEW START AT LIFE IN HIS LOVING COVENANT.
