Prophecy Monthly – March 2024

April 8, 2024 / By Prophecy / Prophecy News

March was a month of violence and idolatry. Easter and Purim were celebrated around the world. These ancient pagan practices, that God has warned against, have been rebranded as a way to praise God. This hypocrisy has permeated the world.

There will be a time when the world will learn war no more, but that time is yet to come. Wars raged on in the Middle East, Ukraine and Sudan with violence rising in Haiti. Protests against the wars as well as from farmers looking for a fair means of living brought people to the streets. Disasters, both man-made and weather related impacted lives across the globe.

The following map is a summary of current events related to prophecy. Below the map you will find the event details and relevant Scriptural references. Many people have been taught God’s Word in the past tense. This is incorrect. The teachings and scenarios in the Bible and God’s Word are all prophetic, pointing to a future time, and that time is now.

What is Prophecy?

A prophecy points to a future event that has not yet happened. Religious leaders are famous for saying something that is not in God’s Word will happen, and then it never does. Two examples are rapture and the physical ‘second coming’ of Jesus. While so called ‘Christianity’ is focused on these ideas made up by men, they have completely turned a blind eye to the actual prophecies laid out by God and His Prophets.

“… the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in My Name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the Word which the LORD has not spoken? When a prophet speaks in the Name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously…”
Deuteronomy 18:20-22

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
1 John 4:1

God’s Prophecies

God’s prophecies are both warnings and indications of what time it is, in God’s time. He made these warnings all the way back from the times of Adam, Abraham, Moses, the Prophets and Jesus. These warnings and indications all point to the present age, a period of time, not a specific day or hour. It is time to pay attention to the events God pointed to thousands of years ago. We are seeing these prophecies fulfilled on a daily basis with an ever increasing clarity, exactly as He said we would.

“…the Lord knows all that may be known, and He beholds the signs (indications) of the world. He declares the things that are past, and for to come, and reveals the steps of hidden things.”
The Wisdom of Sirach 42:18-19

“Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.”
Isaiah 42:9

“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done…”
Isaiah 46:9-10

Veneration of the Cross

April 28, 2023 / By aSiriusStar / Holidays of Man, Top Ten

“For they provoked Him to anger with their high places, and moved Him to jealousy with their graven images.”
Psalms 78:58

This Cross of Wales will lead the procession for the coronation of King Charles III on May 6, 2023. Embedded in the center are two slivers said to be from the “true cross” on which Jesus was crucified. The slivers were a gift from Pope Francis.

“The Cross of Wales, a new processional cross presented by His Majesty King Charles III as a centenary gift to the Church in Wales, will lead the Coronation procession at Westminster Abbey on 6 May. In a significant ecumenical gesture, the Cross of Wales will incorporate a relic of the True Cross, the personal gift of Pope Francis to His Majesty The King to mark the Coronation.”
The Cross of Wales will lead Coronation procession Provincial news Posted: 19 April 2023

“The relics of what is known as the True Cross were given to King Charles by Pope Francis, as a coronation gift…Set into the silver cross will be two small wooden shards, originating from what is claimed to be the cross on which Jesus was crucified. Such relics of the True Cross have been venerated for centuries, with pilgrimages made to churches where they are held. There has also been long-standing skepticism about the volume and authenticity of such relics and whether they could all come from a single cross.”

March Madness

March 30, 2023 / By Nemisistar / Biblical Light, Top Ten

The month of ‘March’ is named after Mars, the Roman god of war, which is madness in itself. The Romans have always been a war-like people. The original Roman calendar began with the month of March. Beginning with Spring, it is the time when they could all go out and begin fighting each other again. It was March Madness!

The God of War! WHAT?? — Mars, the Roman god of war

January is named for the Roman god, Janus; February for a Roman festival of purification. These were added later when the calendar underwent another reformation. The way they keep changing times and dates is sheer madness!

‘All Saints’ or ‘all gods’?

November 1, 2022 / By Nemisistar / Holidays of Man

November 1st is designated by the Roman Catholic church to give honor to all their gods. They call it ‘All Saints Day.’ Did I say gods or saints? In Latin, the two words have the same meaning. Such a play on words! Pantheon means, ‘all gods’. It’s polytheistic or having ‘many gods.’ It is said that a man with many gods has no God. ‘All gods’ was changed to ‘All Saints’ just to fool everybody.

“For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the Heavens.”
Psalms 96:5

The ancient Roman Pantheon was built to honor the King of all the gods, Jupiter. In the Greek Pantheon he was Zeus. In ancient Persia they had Ahura Mazda as their supreme head. Marduk or Bel/Baal reigned supreme in the Babylonian Pantheon. He was personified as a dragon.

Halloween is Pagan!

October 24, 2022 / By Nemisistar / Holidays of Man

Halloween or Hallowe’en is a contraction of “All Hallows’ evening” or “Holy Eve”. It is a celebration observed in many countries on October 31st, the eve of the Western Roman feast of ‘All Saints Day’. It begins the observance of the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering and venerating the Dead. This makes Halloween a pagan/heathen practice.

The Roman Catholic Church acknowledges its connection to Halloween and Halloween celebrations in that they are common in Catholic parochial schools throughout the United States. The question is: What does the LORD God, Creator of Heaven and earth, think about this pagan practice? And what will be the consequences to those who practice it?
