The War That Prepares the Way for the Antichrist--Don't be Deceived

 

A very informative and interesting video was sent to me the other day (HT Karen) that delves into the great WW3/Armageddon deception that is coming upon the world and its various aspects. I highly recommend giving it a listen. 

 

As you heard in the video the researcher believes that they are going to create proclaim WW3 as a fake Armageddon after which the false ET UFO connected false messiah/antichrist will come onto the scene. And it will be at this point that many will be deceived into following him. 

Jesus warned us many times in the Bible about the great end times deception that will come upon the world.

 

Matthew 24:4,5

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

 

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

 

Matthew 24:11

And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

 

Matthew 24:24

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

 

Mark 13:5,6

And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:

 

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

 

Luke 21:8

And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.

 

God also warned us to not be deceived about the timing of the rapture, which occurs at the Day of the Lord.

 

1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

 

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thes 5:1,2

 

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

 

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 2 Thes 2:1,2

 

In fact God tells us that the Day of the Lord/rapture will not occur until after the antichrist is revealed and proclaims himself to be god in the Temple.

 

2 Thessalonians 2:3,4

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

 

Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

 

And after He proclaims himself to be god, which is near the midpoint of the last 7 years, the world is given into his hands for the last 3.5 years.

 

Revelation 13:5

And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

 

Daniel 7:25

And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

 

Daniel 12:7

And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

 

After the antichrist performs the abomination of desolation and takes over the world is also when Israel flees into the wilderness.

 

Revelation 12:14

And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

 

Revelation 12:6

And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

 

Then after the last 3.5 years of the end times are finished the real Armageddon will occur and the true Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ will return to the earth to defeat the devil and his kingdom and set up the true Millennium.

 

Revelation 19:20

And the beast was taken, 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.

 

Revelation 20:3

And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

 

So, is this the way it will work out are they with lying signs and wonders going to proclaim WW3 as Armageddon and thrust the false messiah upon the world. Don’t be deceived, the next messiah that comes will be the false one Jesus will not appear until after the real battle of Armageddon occurs. A great end times deception is coming upon the world—don’t be deceived. 

This song tells the story pretty well!

What Really Happened on 5/22/2026? The Insidious 222 WW3 Code Hiding in Plain Sight

 

Insidious, have you ever heard that word before? I believe that word describes the current state of affairs in the world and it connects to 222 and the end times. Here is the formal definition of insidious.

 

in·sid·i·ous (adjective)

 

1. Primary Definition: Proceeding in a gradual, subtle way, but with very harmful or destructive effects.

 

Example: "The insidious effects of long-term sleep deprivation."

 

2. Medical Context: (of a disease) Developing so gradually as to be well established before becoming apparent or showing symptoms.

 

Example: "Glaucoma is an insidious disease that slowly damages the optic nerve."

 

3. Secondary Definition: Treacherous, crafty, or intended to entrap or beguile.

 

Example: "An insidious plot to undermine the committee."

 

Word Origin: It comes from the Latin word insidiosus (cunning), which itself derives from insidiae meaning "an ambush or trick." This etymology perfectly captures the core meaning of the word: a danger that quietly lies in wait to ambush you without making a sound.

 

And why do I believe that the world is in an insidious state, and how does 222 fit into all of this? 

A few weeks ago, in the post; Prophecy Watch: May 18, 2026, and Beyond. Updated--Watch Fulfilled, I issued a watch for 5/22/2026, which was day number 222 of the last 7 years. Here is what I wrote in an update on that post.

 

Update: Watch fulfilled, this is what I wrote above, "And since 10/9/2025 also pointed to 10/13/2025, which was 4 days later, I believe we should also watch 5/22/2026, which would be 222 days from 10/13/2025."

 

And look what happened on day number 222--5/22/26, we have this from Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

 

The gruesome UAV attack carried out by the Ukrainian armed forces on the night of May 22 against the academic building and dormitory of a college of Lugansk State Pedagogical University in Starobelsk, LPR, has become yet another glaring testimony to the Nazi and terrorist nature of the Kiev regime, which deliberately strikes civilians and does not stop short of the cold-blooded murder of children...

 

We warn foreign nationals, including staff of diplomatic missions and representative offices of international organizations, of the need to leave the city as soon as possible,

 

Russia responded by firing 111 missiles into Kiev and as you just read are warning more are coming.

 

And then there is this; 

 

   Reuters: NATO is preparing 60,000 troops for war with Russia, right now, 3 divisions are being formed on the territory of Estonia and Latvia 

 

And in response to that 5/22/26 day number 222 attack by Ukraine here is what Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of Russia's Federation Council just posted:

 

Citizens of EU countries, You should realize your authorities have unilaterally entered into a war with Russia. So be vigilant and don't be surprised by anything. The peaceful sleep is over. But you know who to ask why!

 

— Dmitry Medvedev (@MedvedevRussiaE) May 29, 2026

 

And here is Russia’s response to the day number 222 Ukraine attack;

 

Major Russian attack kills at least 22 and leaves Ukraine pleading for help from Trump

 

The assault follows warnings of an intense new wave of attacks, as the Kremlin hopes to change the narrative of a war mired in battlefield setbacks and diplomatic stalemate amid growing signs of domestic disquiet.

 

With Russia's response to the 5/22/2026 attack by Ukraine and their declaration that Europe has now entered into war with Russia, did the infamous Seal 2 WW3 begin on day number 222? 

And let’s not forget that the whole Russia Ukraine war officially began on another 222 date--2/22/2022--when Russia issued the decree to invade Ukraine. The date of 2/22/2022 was a highly synced date of which I issued several watches for. 

So, did the infamous Seal 2 WW3 begin on day number 2222--5/22/2026? And if so, why would that be an insidious state of affairs? 

I see that as a definite possibility. And if as of 10/13/2025, when the peace deal was signed with the many, we entered into the last 7 years and Seal 2 has just been opened, then things are about to go from bad to worse. 

And all who have read their Bibles know that after Seal 2 comes the Seal 3 worldwide hyper inflationary famine followed by the Seal 4 “population reduction” as they call it, where 1 out of 4 dies. 

To be sure, the first 4 Seals are an insidious state of affairs, and the really sad part is that I estimate that 99.9% of the world population will fail to realize that we are in the last 7 years of prophecy because it will be proceeding in a gradual, subtle way, and unfortunately the result will be, very harmful and will have destructive effects. 

And after the first 4 seals comes the most harmful and destructive events—the Seal 5 arising of the ET connected antichrist, his takeover of the world, and the mark of the beast end times trap, which all who partake will be damned to hell. 

And guess what, the 99.9% who will be duped includes some Christians who will hang onto their false end times theories, including the pre-tribulation theory, that won’t allow for the possibility that a Christian will be here for the first 5 Seals. 

In case you were wondering it has been proved that the rapture occurs after the opening of Seal 6. BTW, to date no one has ever been able to logically and Biblically refute that proof. 

I have been trying to warn people for over 20 years that these days would be coming. And if the last 7 years began on 10/13/2025, which I believe it has, then the 4 horses of the Apocalypse will have run their course by the Spring of 2029 at which time the false messiah ET connected antichrist will take over the world.

Don’t Take the Mark!

One day in the near future all the people of the world will be faced with a choice of receiving a biometric I.D. implant in their right hand or forehead. The Bible calls this implant "the Mark" and tells us that no one will be able to buy or sell without the mark. 

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

 

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Rev 13:16,17 

The Bible also tells us that all who take the mark will be doomed to hell. 

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

 

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

 

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Rev 14:9-11 

If the last 7 years began on 10/13/2025, which I believe it did, then the choice of whether or not to take the mark will come about in 2029. 

Don't take the mark! 

Here is a song by Peace Light that would be great to share with others, which will enlighten and warn them of the dangers of taking the mark—it will land someone in hell. 

"Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." — Luke 21:36

Ground Zero: Do H.G. Wells and Ancient Prophecy Agree on Where WW3 Begins?

 

An interesting news item popped up in the news today from Israel365 that was featured at The Big The One. It concerned Bozrah or Basrah or Basra as it has been spelled throughout the years.

A few days ago, israel365news.com wrote a very interesting article on the subject of a well-known Bible verse. The verse says, "For the Lord offered a sacrifice in Bozrah and wrought great destruction in the land of Edom" (Isaiah 34:6).

On the subject of where these Edom and Bozrah are, biblical scholars are still guessing and no one can say for sure, but their border lay somewhere in the Persian Gulf region. And 400-500 years ago, in Syria, in modern Aleppo (formerly called Aram-Tzow), there lived the famous Jewish mystic Shmuel Laniado, who wrote such a long commentary on the verse quoted above that it turned into a whole book.

And those who know it say that reading it is like reading the headlines of modern newspapers, everything is there and is coming true before our eyes. And the main thing that is written there is that the Third World War will begin in the same Botzra, so we are following the development of events. 

Years ago, Cutting Edge Ministries alerted us to the predictive programming story by H.G. Wells of which I wrote the following in a previous post.

In 1933 H.G. Wells wrote a book entitled “The Shape of Things to Come.”  Look what Cutting Edge says about this book. 

In this book, he revealed a part of the Illuminati plan to start the World War III that would usher in the "Modern World-State" that will be ruled by "The Christ" -- Antichrist. Listen carefully to this part of the Plan, for we may see it come to pass in our Daily News: 

".. the plan for the 'Modern World-State' would succeed in its third attempt (Third World War) and would come out of something that would occur in Basra, Iraq." ["The Globalists: The Power Elite Exposed", by Dr. Dennis Cuddy, p. 50. 

The book was turned into a movie called “Things to Come” that was released in 1936. In the movie the great world war starts on Christmas day. It is followed by a total breakdown of society, and then a zombie like disease, which kills many. 

Then comes the arrival of a space man like savior type with superior technology who wants to rescue the world and unite it into a “Wings Over the World” New World Order. The war and all the ensuing problems are blamed on Nationalism, and it is voiced that uniting the world will prevent this from ever happening again. 

As you have probably recognized this is exactly what the Bible reveals will occur in the end times prior to the arrival of the antichrist—Seal 2: WW3, Seal 3: Financial collapse, and Seal 4: Death of ¼ the world’s population. And after this comes the UFO related antichrist, who will take over the world and unite it into the New World Order. 

So, the first article refers to the ancient location of Bozrah or Basra near the strait of Hormuz and the second the modern location of Bozrah or Basra in Iraq. Could the H.G. Wells information have the wrong Basra? Is it the ancient Bosrah—the strait of Hormuz—that the nuclear part of WW3 will come out of? Time will tell. But if it does the nuclear part of WW3 will definitely be part of Seal 2 and a definite sign that we are in the last 7 years. 

With all the war posturing going on in the Middle East this is definitely something to watch, but if 10/13/2025 was the beginning, then I would look to Christmas of 2028. 

Here is a song from Peace Light, part of which refers to Seal 2. 

 

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

Azerbaijan and WW3 Predictive Programming

 

The above popped up in the news today. Whenever I hear of Azerbaijan, I also think of its Iran backed mortal enemy Armenia, and the Predictive programming song 911.

The high priestess Lady Gaga released a song in 2020 called 911. In the song, which I do not recommend listening to, which I have not, or watching, it has what I believe to be several instances of predictive programming for the next 911 type event(s)—WWIII. In fact, in the lyrics “pop another 911” was repeated several times--predictive programming in and of itself

Now, here are a few screenshots from the music video that I believe also contain predictive programming and what I believe they are signaling.

The wrecked bike: (2 wheels—Seal 2), girl dressed in red—seal 2 red horse of the Apocalypse on white sands of the desert—within the framework of the White horse of Seal 1. With the horse and rider in black overlooking above—the Seal 3 black horse will soon follow after the Seal 2 event.

The black horse on white sands: Seal 3 black horse/famine. White Sands NM; notice the 3 stars, 3 is a trinity, this is a signal to the trinity nuclear test that was conducted in White Sands NM. This signals that a nuclear incident/war is coming which may follow or precipitate the Seal 3 hyperinflationary collapse. 

Nothing new there, any student of the Bible knows about Seal 2 and 3 and that they will one day come upon the world. 

Any signal to the timing? Ask why would they have a sign in the music video with Armenian film festival on it? 

Is it because just maybe these events might possibly follow an Armenian or Azerbaijan war event? 

So, has the predictive programming been deciphered, is the buildup of military assets in Azerbaijan a signal that the nuclear part of the Seal 2 WW3 and the Seal 3 hyperinflationary collapse, the red horse and the black horse, are near to occurring? Or will the war calm down and a yet future war be the precursor war. As always, time will tell. 

But remember when the horses are finished riding throughout the earth the world will be decimated which will include ¼ of the world’s population dead. Also realize that they may try to hide that fact from us. 

After that the ET connected false messiah will come on the scene offering the world a solution to all its problems. The world will fall for his deception, and the antichrist will be made the king of the world. The two witnesses will also arise at this time and then the Seal 5 persecution of Jews and Christians—great tribulation—where no one can buy or sell without the mark, will come into play. 

Thankfully not long after will be the Christian’s rescue from the war being waged against them via the rapture. The scriptures tell us that the rapture will occur after seal 6 has been opened which begins the Day of the Lord.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. 

1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thes 4:16 – 5:2 

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 2 Thes 2 

Most Christians believe the rapture occurs at the Day of the Lord event. But what most Christians ignore is what scripture says about its timing—the Day of the Lord begins after the sun is darkened and the moon is turned to blood. 

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come: Acts 2 

The sun is darkened, and the moon is turned to blood after the opening of Seal 6. 

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev 6 

Therefore, sound logic demands the following chronology of events.

 

Seal 6 opened—Sun darkened, moon to blood—Day of the Lord—rapture

Don't hit the snooze, wake up and prepare

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36
