9. Israel has been bombing the
suburbs of Damascus
They are targeting concealed
weapons. The Bible foretells a
time when Damascus will become
a ruinous heap (Isaiah 35:1).
10. Christians are mocked as
never before and Jews are
fleeing to Israel at a pace not
seen since World War II
(Matthew 10:22).
In the Iran/Syria region, a Chris-
tian is slaughtered every five
minutes, yet few show any con- Jesuit Pope.
cern. Christianity is being erased
from the region of its birth. All of
this intensified in 2015.
11. The technology giants want
to suppress the truth and
marginalize Christians
From YouTube, to Google, to
Facebook, to Twitter, and more,
the Gospel message is censored
and evil is glorified. They are
preparing the way for the "Mark of
the Beast" technology. This was
on overdrive in 2015.
Our own Ministry came under the
gun and was censored more than
once. Stories reveal that Windows
10 actually spies on e-mails,
credit cards, and more.
12. There was a cry
for a global religion
This came from Pope Francis to
the Parliament of World Religions
in Utah during 2015. If the world is
ever to be one, religions must also
be united. Pope Francis revealed
himself to be an apocalyptic
figure in 2015. We cannot "pin the
tail of the False Prophet" on him
quite yet, but even conservative
Catholics are troubled by this
In fact, this Pope represents
Marxism, environmentalism, the
New World Order, global govern-
ment, sustainable development,
the Jesuit agenda, unity of faiths,
a global constitution, a global
court, and a departure from
Catholic traditions. He is surely a
harbinger of a global religion.
13. Globalism went on overdrive
This is thanks to Barack Obama,
the United Nations, Pope Francis,
and a consortium of worldwide
Leftists. John Lennon, who prominent teachers are telling us
"imagined" all of this decades
ago, would be proud!
14. The push to make cash
illegal intensified in 2015
The move to a cashless society
won't happen overnight. Instead,
it is being implemented very
slowly and systematically in a
series of incremental steps.
All over the planet, governments
are starting to place restrictions
on the use of cash for security
reasons.
15. Israel's Temple Mount
was a focal point for
turmoil over the past year
With stage-setting for fulfilment
of Bible prophecy during this
Church Age winding up, it should
be of no surprise that there has
been tension on Mount Moriah.
That must be the most contested
35 acres on the planet!
16. It was the year Bible
prophecy was mocked and
attacked more than ever!
Believers in our blessed hope
were called "End-time Eddies and
Esthers." While this has always
existed, now more and more
not to waste our time on doom
and gloom.
17. Liberal, Godless
Europe imploded
Leaders like Germany's Angela
Merkel lost their minds, put their
people at huge risk as terrorists
took advantage of the "refugee"
situation, and have made Europe
a time bomb. The Antichrist will
take advantage of this as well.
18. It was the year Evangelicals
began accepting the gay agenda
and some asserted that Allah
and Jehovah are the same
The voices from the religious Left
encouraged this. The great end-
time falling away has much of the
Church going over a cliff with
results that cannot be rectified.
Finding a solid church became a
believer's biggest challenge in
2015. Things are not falling apart -
they are actually falling into place!
Can you hear the hoof beats of the
four horsemen of the apocalypse
in the distance? I won't be silent
about the signs of the times. If
Jesus chastised the Pharisees for
not knowing the signs of His first
coming, why would we not be
expected to be aware of today's
apocalyptic signs? Wake up, look
up, and rise up! - Jan Markell,
Prepare the Way, Issue No. 94.
