End Time Prophecies
indianabob:
Hi October rose,
Agree with your assessment of bit coin.
Seems to me it is about the same as our government monetary system, but with a different authority in charge.
The so called "federal reserve" is very similar to any other "fiat" monetary system.
Instead of smoke and mirrors and bits of data, it is smoke and mirrors and bits of colored paper or "bank notes". Since we are not on a gold or silver standard any longer. Dollars have value ONLY as long as other people will accept them in exchange for goods and services. So it is a confidence scheme that can change in short order, so that's why we should not put our confidence in money or in gold.

Yes, Indiana I agree.
The last part of the verse in Matthew above is
4 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come
What do you all think this is? Our gospel, the true good news of Jesus being the savior of the world and everyone eventually coming His Kingdom- is different from the gospel of the mainline churches and their free will and their forever hell. Do you understand then that the gospel of Jesus as Savior will be preached throughout the world and then He'll come ? Or just the knowledge of Jesus ? And if it's the gospel we believe in, then bibletruths is doing its part, I would say. Throughout the whole world means everyone hears, or that generally people in the world will know about Jesus ? What would Ray say ? :)

Yes Dave. It was posted on page 1.

Rev 13:16-17
16 And he causes 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 wild beast, or the NUMBER OF HIS NAME.
Dave -
Ray did touch briefly on the subject of buying and selling, in his article, Who Is The Beast, but there was much more involved that he didn't cover.. we know we are the beast, but do we understand that our earthly enslavement under the beast nation makes everyone completely depended on them for the necessities of life.
We may no longer consider ourselves part of this earthly kingdom, but we are inslaved by it none the less. . Yes, we should first concern ourselves with the spiritual aspects of these scriptures, but God is speaking of both the spiritual and physical, thus warning us of how money is the root of all evil, and then showing us just how that evil is manifested .
These tariffs prevent people from selling their goods, thus rendering them incapable of providing the most necessary things of life to their countries people. We only need to look at the impact tariffs have had on other countries in our time, to see the connection in prophecy.
There is even more to be understood about the marks. There is the spiritual and holy mark and also a physical, but that has not been manifested in the physical at this point in time, therefore any thoughts would be purely speculative.
