“Blow ye the trumpet in Zion,
and sound an alarm in My holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land
tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
A day of darkness and of
gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon
the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like,
neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.
A fire devoureth before them;
and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the Garden of Eden before them,
and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.” (Joel
2:1-3).
“A whole town was wiped off
the face of the Earth in the matter of 8 hours.”
“There is nothing left. All
my neighbors, except one, are gone.”

I don’t claim to know
everything about what is happening with the wildfires. And contrary to what
many people have said to me, I don’t believe everything I hear and see on the
internet. But, it occurs to me that the skeptics not seem to believe those YouTube videos because
they don’t want to believe the videos.
What I’ve been seeing there aligns
with Bible prophecy in accordance to all that Jesus has given the Seventh-day
Adventist church, and there can be no other guiding light today. That Bible
prophecy has been my guiding light on current events of late.
“The present is a time of overwhelming interest to all
living. Rulers and statesmen, men
who occupy positions of trust and authority, thinking men and women of all
classes, have their attention fixed upon the events taking place about us. They
are watching the relations that exist among the nations. They observe the
intensity that is taking possession of every earthly
element, and they recognize that something great and decisive is about to take
place, ― that the world is on the verge of a stupendous crisis.The
Bible, and the Bible only, gives a correct view of these things.” Prophets and
Kings, p. 537.
So, what do these “wildfires”
all mean? Where are they all going? I have some thoughts and conjectures, which
I want to speak to, but like I say, I’m going off of Adventist biblical
prophecy. Why must I do my best to warn of the coming trouble? Because of the
principle of Esther 4:8-14 and Ezekiel 3:17-21.
“He [Mordecai] gave him the
copy of the writing of the decree that was given at Shushan to destroy them, to
shew it unto Esther, and to declare it unto her, and to charge her that she
should go in unto the king, to make supplication unto him, and to make request
before him for her people….
Then Mordecai commanded to
answer Esther, Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape in the king’s
house, more than all the Jews.
For if thou altogether
holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance
arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s house shall be
destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time
as this?” (Est. 4:8,13,14).
Isn’t it our duty to give
warning to so many, whether they are willingly ignorant or not?
The people in the videos have given first-hand,
eye-witness accounts of what happened to them. They are trying to let others
know what they saw with their own eyes. Will anybody hear them? Will anyone
believe them?
“Son of man, I have made thee
a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at My mouth, and
give them warning from Me.
When I say unto the wicked,
Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn
the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die
in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Yet if thou warn the wicked,
and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in
his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
Again, When a righteous man
doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a
stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him
warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done
shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Nevertheless if thou warn the
righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely
live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.” (Eze. 3:17-21).
“Moreover He said unto me,
Son of man, all My words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart,
and hear with thine ears.
And go, get thee to them of
the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell
them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will
forbear.” (Eze. 3:10).
Why did “the northern army” (Joel
2:20), “My great army” (Joel 2:25), quoted at the top sweep through the land of promise? Was it punishment? Was it the Lord’s stumblingblock? “Yes”, to both. Doesn’t this sound so much like the trumpets’ prophecy of Revelation with its “locust…, ...cankerworm, ...the caterpiller, and the palmerworm” (Joel 2:25)?
Isn’t Joel’s message what the symbolism of Revelation 9’s Apollyon (“destroyer”) locust prophecy was based on?
“And I beheld, and heard an
angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe,
woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the
trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
And the fifth angel sounded,
and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key
of the bottomless pit.
And he opened the bottomless
pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace;
and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
And there came out of the
smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions
of the earth have power.
And it was commanded them
that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing,
neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their
foreheads.” (Rev. 8:13-9:4).
They would devour all faith
and joy, freedom and peace in the land.
“O LORD, how long shall I
cry, and Thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto Thee of violence, and Thou wilt
not save!
Why dost Thou shew me
iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are
before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.
Therefore the law is slacked,
and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the
righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.
Behold ye among the heathen,
and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which
ye will not believe, though it be told you.
For, lo, I raise up the
Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth
of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not theirs.
They are terrible and
dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.
Their horses also are swifter
than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their
horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they
shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.
They shall come all for
violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the
captivity as the sand.
And they shall scoff at the
kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every
strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.” (Hab. 1:2-10).
“And when they [the Lord’s
Dark Ages witnesses] shall have finished their testimony [post-1798], the beast that
ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall
overcome them, and kill them.” (Rev. 11:7).
“Hear this, ye old men, and
give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Hath this been in your days, or even
in the days of your fathers?
Tell ye your children of it,
and let your children tell their children, and their children another
generation.
That which the palmerworm
hath left hath the locust eaten; and that which the locust hath left hath the
cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm hath left hath the caterpiller
eaten.
Awake, ye drunkards, and
weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut
off from your mouth.
For a nation is come up upon
My land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and
he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion.
He hath laid My vine waste,
and barked My fig tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast it away; the branches
thereof are made white.” (Joel 1:2-7).
“And the LORD shall utter His
voice before His army: for His camp is very great: for He is strong that
executeth His word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who
can abide it?
Therefore also now, saith the
LORD, turn ye even to Me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with
weeping, and with mourning:
And rend your heart, and not
your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for He is gracious and
merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth Him of the evil.
Who knoweth if He will return
and repent, and leave a blessing behind Him; even a meat offering and a drink
offering unto the LORD your God?
Blow the trumpet in Zion,
sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:
Gather the people, sanctify
the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck
the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of
her closet.
Let the priests, the
ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say,
Spare Thy people, O LORD, and give not Thine heritage to reproach, that the
heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people,
Where is their God?” (Joel 2:11-17).
Yes, the prophecy of Joel is
very pertinent to our day, because his prophecy was used as a template for John
to wake up God’s people concerning Nebuchadnezzar’s ancient neo-Babylon and also the final Babylon that would bring another
war upon our eternal salvation, to awaken Jesus’ sleeping virgins to the urgency of today’s current
events—all of current events. The seven trumpets prophecies are not a fulfillment of
something that happened in the Middle Ages, but a last days’ event, even as the
ancient feast of trumpets had a major bearing on the Day of Atonement ten days later, to warn everyone
of the Day of Atonement and to leave no one with an excuse for not getting ready for it. Aren’t
we in the antitypical Day of Atonement? Then the seven trumpets of Revelation 8
and 9 have tremendous ramifications on these last days, and warn us of the woes
of the symbolic locusts of the bottomless pit.
What do those locusts do?
They cause torment through fire and smoke and brimstone (which is what the third angel’s message is about). They devour every
resource for “the new wine” (Joel 1:5) of joy and peace. Jesus said He wouldn’t
drink of it until we were all safely in the kingdom through His High Priestly
ministry. And today in this investigative judgment we must be ever so careful
not to take our rejoicing to the extreme and go beyond our Master.
We have this caution. “But
this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have
wives be as though they had none;
And they that weep, as though
they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they
that buy, as though they possessed not;
And they that use this world,
as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.” (1Cor. 7:29-31).
We must rejoice and again I
say rejoice. But when we worship our God we must follow the instruction of
David who loved Jesus with all his heart, “Serve the LORD with fear, and
rejoice with trembling” (Ps. 2:11). Ours must be a balanced joy, a true-hearted worship
before God, not “feignedly” (Jer. 3:6-10),
or flattering Him with our mouths and lying with our tongues, see (Psalm 78:36), but
truly, genuinely. “They that worship Him
must worship Him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24).
So, what do the huge
conflagrations in California have to do with worshiping God? What do they have
to do with the fifth and sixth trumpets that warn of the strong delusion and perdition
of the final production to which Satan brings “all the world” (Rev. 13:3),
“peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues” (Rev. 17:15), “them that
dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people”
(Rev. 14:6)? “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out
of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth
shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the
foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet
is”. (Rev. 17:8).
How could U.N. Agenda 21 fit
into all of this? It would help if you would Google “biodiversity map”. All the
red areas are labeled, “No human habitation.” And the yellow areas are labeled,
“Limited human habitation”. The green areas are labeled “Human habitation”. You
will see that the United States is mostly red and yellow. The United Nations
has mandated America to become a vast nature reserve. No more freedom-loving
Protestant America. No more Protestant U.S. Constitution that separates church
and state and puts the church in her proper place—a supportive help-meet to the nation, a
behind-the-scenes silent strength from above, rather than a great, militarized,
persecuting Christian religion. No more troublesome Protestantism. No more
troublesome Protestant Bible.
Here’s the key. The beast of
Revelation 11:7 and 9:1 and 17:8-11 is more than the beast from the Dark Ages
returning to life with the help of apostate Protestant America. The locusts are
the Jesuits and beast of the final Revelation prophecies is a Jesuit papacy.
The Jesuits were the solution to the hemorrhaging of the Dark Ages papacy. The
Jesuits’ sole purpose was to wipe Protestantism off the face of the earth. How could they possibly do that to the blessed nation of Protestantism’s God? Here’s how they would: They would corrupt
the Protestants and lead them to a counterfeit revival and false worship, like
the Balaam did to Israel in Baal-peor, and lead them to suffer the automatic
judgments of God. This would lead to the torment that occurs when the people of
the Lord are separated from their God and their hearts end up with a God-sized hole in them.
Has that happened to
Protestant Americans? Haven’t we become fully corrupt and completely forgetful of
our God of the Reformation? Haven’t even the churches disowned their
Protestant covenant with the only true God. Haven’t they welcomed their old
enemy from the Dark Ages, from whose terror-ridden captivity Jesus delivered
them five hundred years ago and said to them, “the [papacy] whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see
them again no more for ever” (Ex. 14:13).
What have we Protestant American’s done to this
land flowing with milk and honey, the bounties from which we were to “rejoice
before the LORD your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your
menservants, and your maidservants, and the Levite that is within your gates;
forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with you” (Deut. 12:12)? Haven’t
we turned this paradise into a land of Canaanites, filled with abominations?
And what has been the Lord
constant warning to His Protestants, as they faithfully studied and read the
book that they professed to uphold, the Bible and the Bible only?
“Defile not ye yourselves in
any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out
before you:
And the land is defiled:
therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth
out her inhabitants.
Ye shall therefore keep My statutes
and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any
of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
(For all these abominations
have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)
That the land spue not you
out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.
For whosoever shall commit
any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off
from among their people.
Therefore shall ye keep Mine ordinance,
that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed
before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.”
(Lev. 18:24-30).
How have we done? We
have shot ourselves in the foot.
So, we are in the process of
being vomited out of the Lord’s good land, “the pleasant land”, “the glorious
land” (Dan. 8:9; 11:41).
“Your country is desolate,
your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your
presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.” (Isa. 1:7).
“Their land also is full of
silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land is
also full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots [both of which
the Lord forbade because that meant copying the pagan ancient Egyptians]: their
land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which
their own fingers have made” (Isa. 2:7,8).
“Then the LORD said unto me,
Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the
land.
For, lo, I will call all the
families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and
they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem,
and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of
Judah.
And I will utter My judgments
against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken Me, and have
burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.” (Jer.
1:14-16).
“Therefore the showers have
been withholden, and there hath been no Latter Rain; and thou hadst a whore’s
forehead, thou refusedst to be ashamed.
Wilt thou not from this time
cry unto Me, My father, Thou art the guide of my youth?
Will He reserve His anger for
ever? will He keep it to the end? Behold, thou hast spoken and done evil things
as thou couldest….
Go and proclaim these words
toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the LORD; and
I will not cause Mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the
LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever.
Only acknowledge thine
iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast
scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not
obeyed My voice, saith the LORD.
Turn, O backsliding children,
saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city,
and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:
And I will give you pastors
according to Mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.”
(Jer. 3:3-5,12-15).
“Then shalt thou say unto
them, Because your fathers have forsaken Me, saith the LORD, and have walked
after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have
forsaken Me, and have not kept My law;
And ye have done worse than
your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the imagination of his evil
heart, that they may not hearken unto Me.” (Jer. 16:11,12).
“And the LORD hath sent unto
you all His servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have
not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear.
They said, Turn ye again now every one from
his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the
LORD hath given unto you and to your fathers for ever and ever:
And go not after other gods
to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke Me not to anger with the works
of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.
Yet ye have not hearkened
unto Me, saith the LORD; that ye might provoke Me to anger with the works of
your hands to your own hurt.
Therefore thus saith the LORD
of hosts; Because ye have not heard My words,
Behold, I will send and take
all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of
Babylon, My servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the
inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will
utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and
perpetual desolations.
Moreover I will take from
them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the
bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the
light of the candle.
And this whole land shall be
a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of
Babylon….” (Jer. 25:4-11).
“For the punishment of the
iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin
of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.”
(Lam. 4:6).
As a nation, our probation is
closing. We have exhausted the patience and mercy of God upon America and the
world He sent to protect from papal despotism. But there is a gleam of hope and
a silver lining around the dark cloud before us—the Latter Rain of the Holy
Spirit.
“And He said, Go, and tell
this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but
perceive not.
Make the heart of this people
fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their
eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert,
and be healed.
Then said I, Lord, how long?
And He answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses
without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
And the LORD have removed men
far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
But yet in it shall be a
tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak,
whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall
be the substance thereof.” (Isa. 6:9-13).
But, before that great event
takes place, there must be a time of trouble that sends a message to the Lord’s
people today—His Adventists and Protestants. They are the holy seed, and in their
remnant will be found the seed of the gospel, substantial faith, faith that
works, faith that God had protected, and therefore the Jesuits locusts couldn’t devour.
In our approaching time of trouble I foresee
a captivity and enslavement. Such a condition doesn’t seem that it could happen
overnight, true. But the final events will be rapid ones. How long would it
take to set fire to all of America, like has occurred in California? Let’s say
that after California has conformed to the U.N. Agenda 21, then what might
happen next? The states of Oregon and Washington? Then what? A phalanx of the Rocky
Mountain states? Then the Great Plains states? Followed by North Dakota to
eastern Texas and afterwards, the Midwest down to Mississippi? And as the national fire
continues its sweep to the eastern seaboard, all the way from the west coast
the people flee to the major cities and their concrete jungles. Thus, by the
end of the great burn-out, everyone who survived the hundreds of millions of
cars sudden melting down and houses bursting into flames where no forest fire was, would be huddled into
cities and evacuated to a refuge in other countries where they will be put into
slavery and concentration camps.
In harshest circumstances and
deepest repentance, the remnant of Adventism and Protestantism will have their
Bochim and find their everlasting Father.
“And an Angel of the LORD
came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and
have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I
will never break My covenant with you.
And ye shall make no league
with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye
have not obeyed My voice: why have ye done this?
Wherefore I also said, I will
not drive them out from before you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides,
and their gods shall be a snare unto you.
And it came to pass, when the
Angel of the LORD spake these words unto all the children of Israel, that the
people lifted up their voice, and wept.
And they called the name of
that place Bochim [“weeping”, “weepers”]: and they sacrificed there unto the
LORD.” (Jdg. 2:1-5).
Out of deepest repentance and
gratitude will arise the 144,000 who take back the fruits of the Spirit that
the locusts devoured.
“Comfort ye, comfort ye My
people, saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her,
that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath
received of the LORD’s hand double for all her sins.” (Isa. 40:1,2).
“And the people believed: and
when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that He
had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.”
(Ex. 4:31).
“The voice of him that crieth
in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert
a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be
exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall
be made straight, and the rough places plain:
And the glory of the LORD
shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the
LORD hath spoken it.” (Isa. 40:3-5).
“Be glad then, ye children of
Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for He hath given you the former rain
moderately, and He will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain,
and the latter rain in the first month.
And the floors shall be full
of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil.
And I will restore to you the
years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the
palmerworm, My great army which I sent among you.
And ye shall eat in plenty,
and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt
wondrously with you: and My people shall never be ashamed.
And ye shall know that I am
in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and My people
shall never be ashamed.
And it shall come to pass
afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and
your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men
shall see visions:
And also upon the servants
and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out My Spirit.
And I will shew wonders in
the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
The sun shall be turned into
darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the
LORD come.
And it shall come to pass,
that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in
mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in
the remnant whom the LORD shall call.” (Joel 2:23-32).
Finally, the Lord will have a
people humbled and ready to give the Loud Cry of the fourth angel of Revelation
18:1.
“And he cried mightily with a
strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the
habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every
unclean and hateful bird.
For all nations have drunk of
the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have
committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich
through the abundance of her delicacies.
And I heard another voice
from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of
her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
For her sins have reached
unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.” (Rev. 18:2-5).
