Blog note. Jesus indicated that ‘fearful sights’ (various natural disasters) would occur leading up to the time known as the Tribulation and Great Tribulation (a combined seven year period of great destruction on earth). Although these types of things have occurred in the past for centuries and thousands of years, they could be identified as the ‘season of the times’ due to the ferociousness of these events. They would be occurring in greater intensity, severity, frequency, size, duration, scope … just like the pains that a woman experiences in labor the farther along she is in the labor process. We are in the ‘season of the times’ that comes just before the seven (7) year Tribulation/Great Tribulation period
… And great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, and famines, and
pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
(Luke 21:11).
… And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and
upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves
roaring; (Luke 21:25)
… Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which
are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken; (Luke 21:26)
… This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. (2 Timothy
3:1)
Jesus is giving a series of
prophecies about what to look for as the age of grace comes to a close. These
verses are several of many such prophecies from throughout the Bible. 2017 was
the worst year in recorded history for the intensity, frequency, severity,
duration and occurrence of a large number of severe natural disasters
worldwide. Earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, torrential
flooding, unprecedented wildfires in unusual places, devastating droughts,
excessive/scorching heat setting records everywhere, record snowfalls in Europe
and Russia. Snow in the Arabia. This list can go on. Most studied
Eschatologists believe these ‘fearful sights’ and massive natural disasters are
all part of the ‘CONVERGENCE’ of signs that this Biblical and prophetic age is
closing. Most people who study prophecy are familiar with the routine
reference(s) made that these things will be like a woman having labor
pains, growing in intensity, frequency, size and duration.
Trump is now averaging 36 (6×6) tweets a day. Pestilence of social media. Sixty (60) total tweets sets record. Sets single day record just Five (5) days after impeachment inquiry began.
October 14, 2019. The Week.
Impeachment has President Trump more hooked on Twitter than ever before.
In the week before House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) officially launched an impeachment inquiry into the president, he was still pretty addicted to social media, tweeting an average of 18 times per day. But the start of the inquiry has led Trump to double his tweet time, sending an average of 36 tweets a day, The Washington Post reports.
Trump set the single-day tweeting record of his presidency just five days after the impeachment inquiry began, suggesting across 48 tweets and retweets on Sept. 29 that his impeachment would cause a “civil war” and attacking Fox & Friends host Ed Henry 18 times. He then set another record last Friday, hitting almost “60 total tweets, including 33 in just 20 minutes,” The Post writes. That included the announcement that Kevin McAleenan was leaving his spot as acting homeland security secretary.
Trump’s tweet storm has coincided with another devastating new fact: He’s now averaging more false claims per day than ever before. Throughout his presidency, Trump has averaged 14 false claims per day, with a graph from the Post showing the daily total has consistently increased as he approaches his 1,000th day in office. In fact, over the past 65 days, Trump has relayed an average of 22 false claims per day, per the Post. That’s largely thanks to Trump’s phone call with Ukraine’s presidency and all the ways he’s tried to cover it up in the weeks since.
