The Culmination of the End Times:

INTRODUCTION:

Many wonder about the culmination of the end times, when it will come, what part

will Christians play in it, how vast the destruction will be, how and why

wickedness will be destroyed, does destruction of the wicked violate the

principle of 'agape' love, and most of all how to survive. This great

destruction that will shortly be upon us is known to many as Armageddon and will

do away with all present political systems and replace them with direct rule by

God's (YHWH) appointed agent, Jesus (Yeshua) Christ.

However, Just as in times past, such as the days of Noah, the righteous will be

delivered while the wicked are being destroyed as shown at Matthew 24:37-39,

"And as were the days of Noah, so shall be the coming of the Son of man. 38 For

as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking,

marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark."(American Standard Version; ASV); And affirmed at 1 Peter 3:20, "that aforetime

were disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah,

while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is eight souls, were saved

through water." (ASV). So let's learn what will occur.

PRESENT POLITICAL SYSTEM IS UN-RIGHTEOUS AND WILL BE REMOVED:

The present political system is under control of the ruler of this system of

things, Satan the Devil, and will be destroyed as revealed at Revelation 16:14 &

16, "for they are spirits of demons, working signs; which go forth unto the

kings of the whole world, to gather them together unto the war of the gread day

of God, the Almighty, 16 And they gathered them together into the place which is

called in Hebrew Har-Magedon. " (ASV); And this is further amplified at

Revelation 19:19, "And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their

armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat upon the horse, and

against his army." (ASV) here speaking of the army of God (YHWH) under command

of his appointed agent, his Son, the Son of God (YHWH), Jesus (Yeshua), who is

shown as sitting on the horse when the political powers make war against him.

Now what is meant by referring to Jesus (Yeshua) as his Father's (YHWH's) agent?

Clearly it is vital we grasp this concept early in this discourse so we can

understand the Biblical facts better; As we will later vividly see, Jesus

(Yeshua) was not carrying out his own will, but the will of the superior one whosent him with respect to him leading the armies of God (YHWH) is the destruction

of the powers to be of this wicked system now existing. In fact Jesus (Yeshua)

said, Matthew 4:10, to Satan when he was being tempted, "Then saith Jesus unto

him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy

God, and him only shalt thou serve." (ASV); and Jesus (Yeshua) said, John 14:28,

"Ye heard how I said to you, I go away, and I come unto you. If ye loved me, ye

would have rejoiced, because I go unto the Father; for the Father is greater

than I." (ASV); Clearly these both show that Jesus (Yeshua) considered his

Father (YHWH) greater than himself, but there are those who mistakenly say they


2/8

are one and the same, preposterous! In an attempt to prove their error they use

Colossians 1:16-19, "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and

that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions,

or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17

And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the

head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead;

that in all things he might have the preeminence. 19 For it pleased the Father

that in him should all fulness dwell;" (Authorized King James Bible; AV).

Clearly they overlook that verse 19 says, "For it pleased the Father that in him

should all fulness dwell;" showing two distinct beings or individuals, and the

Jewish Law of Agencies or Schaliach Principle or their error would probably be

self evident to them.

Some may find this a difficult concept, but is is similar to someone giving

another a Limited Power of Attorney making him an agent to carry out an assigned

task as did His Father (YHWH) at 1 Corinthians 15:22-28, "For as in Adam all

die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But every man in his own

order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, eventhe Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 25

For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 26 The last

enemy that shall be destroyed is death. 27 For he hath put all things under his

feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is

excepted, which did put all things under him. 28 And when all things shall be

subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put

all things under him, that God may be all in all." (AV), testifies that God

(YHWH) had given his Son, Jesus (Yeshua) over all except himself when the

scripture says "it is manifest that he is excepted." Clearly showing they were

distinct individuals and that the Father (YHWH) was the superior one; hence they

were not CO-EQUAL.

HAR-MAGEDON WILL BE A WAR OF DIVINE EXECUTION:

Some think that true Christians will have a part in this war and the slaying

work; however, this is NOT the case as shown at 2 Corinthians 10:3-4, "For

though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh 4 for the

weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the

casting down of strongholds;" (ASV); And reaffirmed that true Christians would

play no part at Romans 12:19, "Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but give place

unto the wrath of God: for it is written, Vengence belongeth unto me; I will

recompense, saith the Lord." (ASV); Actually the fight true Christians NOW have

just prior to the climax is detailed at Ephesians 6:12, "For our wrestling isnot against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in

the heavenly places." (ASV).

That this war at the climax of the end times will be a war of divine execution

by God (YHWH) using his only begotten Son, Jesus (Yeshua), as the appointed

leader of his armies, in keeping with the Schaliach Principle is made clear at

Jeremiah 25:31-32, "A noise shall come even to the end of the earth; for Jehovah

hath a controversy with the nations; he will enter into judgment with all flesh:

as for the wicked, he will give them to the sword, saith Jehovah. 32 Thus saith


3/8

Jehovah of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great

tempest shall be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth." (ASV); And

affirmed at Zephaniah 3:8, "Therefore wait ye for me saith Jehovah, until the

day that I rise up to the prey; for my determination is to gather the nations,

that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all

my fierce anger; for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my

jealousy." (ASV); And at 2 Thessalonians 1:6-9, "if so be that it is a righteous

thing with God to recompense affliction to them that afflict you, 7 and to you

that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven

with the angels of his power in flaming fire, 8 rendering vengeance to them that

know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus: 9 who

shall suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and

from the glory of his might." (ASV); And this is testified to in Jude 14-15,

"And to these also Encoh, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, Behold, the

Lord came with ten thousands of his holy ones, 15 to execute judgment upon all,

and to convict all the ungodly of all their works of ungodliness which they have

ungodly wrought, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken

against him." (ASV).

This period of time, although short, will be dramatic unlike any ever known as

revealed at Revelation:15-17, "And the kings of the earth, and the princes, and

the chief captains, and the rich, and the strong, and every bondman and freeman,

hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains; 16 and they say

to the mountains and to the rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him

that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17 for the great day

of their wrath is come; and who is able to stand." (ASV).

WHY THIS WAR IS NECESSARY AND DOES NOT VIOLATE GOD'S (YHWH'S) CHIEF ATTRIBUTE OF

LOVE:

Many wonder why this war is necessary. It is necessary so as to clear wickedness

from the earth, to prove God's (YHWH's) right to rule beyond question, to both

magnify and clear God's (YHWH's) name, and to destroy wicked entrenched

political opposition to God's (YHWH's) kingdom. FIRST, we will deal with the

need to remove wickedness from the earth as shown at Psalms 37:10-11, "10 For

yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: Yea, thou shalt diligently

consider his place, and he shall not be. 11 But the meek shall inherit the land,

And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace." (ASV); And at Psalms

145:20, "Jehovah preserveth all them that love him; But all the wicked will he

destroy." (ASV); And at Proverbs 2:21-22, "For they that are upright shall dwell

in the earth, and the simple shall continue in it. 22 But the wicked shall be

destroyed from the earth: and they that do unjustly shall be taken away fromit." (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible; DRCB); And at Isaiah 11:1 & 4, "And there

shall come forth a rod out of the root of Jesse, and a flower shall rise up out

of his root. 4 But he shall judge the poor with justice, and shall reprove with

equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall strike the earth with the rod of

his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall slay the wicked." (DRCB),

clearly showing the wicked will be done away with.

SECOND, It is necessary to prove, once and for all, God's (YHWH's) sovereignty

and his unquestionable right to rule as shown at Psalms 83:17-18, "Let them be

put to shame and dismayed for ever; Yea, let them be confounded and perish;

(ASV) 18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH [(YHWH)], art

the most high over all the earth." (AV); And affirmed at Daniel 2:44, "And in

the days of those kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall

never be destroyed, nor shall the sovereignty thereof be left to another people;

but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand

for ever." (ASV). Ans a Isaiah 32:1 states, "Behold, a king shall reign in

righteousness and princes shall rule in justice." (ASV); And at Psalms 45:16,

"Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, Whom thou shalt make princes in

all the earth." (ASV).

That God (YHWH) will take over the rule of the earth and use his appointed

agent, Jesus (Yeshua), the Son of God (YHWH), to run it is made clear at

Revelation 11:17-18, "sayhing, We give thee thanks, O Lord God, the Almighty,

who are and who wast; because thou hast taken thy great power, and didst reign.

18 And the nations were wroth, and thy wrath came, and the time of the dead to

be judged, and the time to give their reward to thy servants the prophets, and

to the saints, and to them that fear thy name, the small and the great; and to

destroy them that destroy the earth." (ASV); And at Isaiah 46:8-11, "Yea, thouheardest not; yea thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not

opened; for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a

transgressor from the womb. 9 For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and

for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. 10 Behold, I

have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of

affliction. 11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it; for how

should my name be polluted? And I will not give my glory unto another." (AV).

THIRD, To both magnify and clear God's (YHWH's) name as is vividly shown at

Ezekiel 38:23, "And I will magnify myself, and sanctify myself, and I will make

myself known in the eyes of many nations; and they shall know that I am

Jehovah." (ASV); And affirmed at Psalms 74:10 & 18, "How long, O God, shall the

adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever. 18 Remember

this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Jehovah, And that a foolish people hath

blasphemed thy name." (ASV). Clearly then it is required for God (YHWH) to clear

his name as further shown at Isaiah 5:16, "but Jehovah of hosts is exalted in

justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness." (ASV); And in

fact we actually pray for this outcome when we pray the 'Lords prayer' as shown

at Matthew 6:9, "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father who art in

heaven, Hallowed be thy name." (ASV); And affirmed at Psalms 145:21, (Psalms

144:21 in the Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible), "My mouth shall speak the praise of

the Lord: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever; yea, for ever and

ever." (DRCB).

FOURTH, To destroy wicked entrenched political opposition to God's (YHWH's)

kingdom as revealed at Revelation 19:11 & 16 & 19, "And I saw the heaven opened;

and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon called Faithful and True; and

in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 16 And he hath on his garment and

on his thigh a name written, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords. 19 And I saw the

beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make

war against his that sat upon the horse, and against his army." (ASV); And this

all in keeping with Jesus (Yeshua) being his Father's (YHWH's) agent in keeping


5/8

with 1 Corinthians 15:20-28, ""But now hath Christ been raised from the dead,

the firstfruits of them that are asleep. 21 For since by man [came] death, by

man [came] also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, so also

in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the

firstfruits; then they that are Christ's, at his coming. 24 Then [cometh] the

end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall

have abolished all rule and all authority and power. 25 For he must reign, till

he hath put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be

abolished is death. 27 For, He put all things in subjection under his feet. But

when he saith, All things are put in subjection, it is evident that he is

excepted who did subject all things unto him. 28 And when all things have been

subjected unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did

subject all things unto him, that God may be all in all." (ASV). It is to be

noted that his Father, Almighty God (YHWH) has put his Son, Jesus (Yeshua), over

all, except himself as pointed out at in 1 Corinthians 15:27 above, and given

him all he needs to carry out his commission.

And that he, Jesus (Yeshua) has been given this authority by his Father (YHWH)

is clearly shown by Revelation 17:12-14, "And the ten horns that thou sawest areten kings, who have received no kingdom as yet; but they receive authority as

kings, with the beast, for one hour. 13 These have one mind, and they give their

power and authority unto the beast. 14 These shall war against the Lamb, and the

Lamb shall overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings; and they

also shall overcome that are with him, called and chosen and faithful." (ASV);

And re-affirmed at Psalms 2:2 & 5-6 & 9, "The kings of the earth set themselves,

And the rulers take counsel together, Against Jehovah, and against his anointed

saying, 5 Then will he speak unto them in his wrath, And vex them in his sore

displeasure: 6 Yet I have set my king, Upon my holy hill of Zion. 9 Thou shalt

break them with a rod of iron; Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's

vessel." (ASV).

DESTRUCTION OF THE WICKED DOES NOT VIOLATE GOD'S (YHWH'S) CHIEF ATTRIBUTE OF

LOVE, BUT IS REQUIRED BY IT:

This destruction of the wicked is necessary in the interest of showing his chief

attribute of love to the righteous ones who have been abused, harassed, and

worse by the wicked ones. All righteous ones experience abuse from the wicked

and God (YHWH) being a righteous God (YHWH) must bring this to an end, but he

takes no delight in having to do so as shown at Ezekiel 18:23, "Have I any

pleasure in the death of the wicked? Saith the Lord Jehovah; and not rather that

he should return from his way, and live?" (ASV); And is affirmed at Romans 9:22,

"What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, enduredwith much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction." (ASV); And at

Psalms 37:28, "For Jehovah loveth justice, And forsaketh not his saints; They

are preserved for ever; But the seed of the wicked shall be cut off." (ASV).

Of course some feel God (YHWH) has been slow about bringing destruction to the

wicked, but in reality he has been patient as shown by 2 Peter 3:8-9, "But

forget not this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand


6/8

years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his

promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you ward, not wishing

that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." (ASV); And at

Luke 18:7-8, shows when justice comes, it will come speedily, "And shall not god

avenge his elect, that cry to him day and night, and yet he is longsuffering

over them? 8 I say unto you, that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless,

when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" (ASV).

THE CLIMAX OF THE END TIMES OR ARMAGEDDON WILL COME SUDDENLY:

It will come during the marked generation as shown by Matthew 24:34-36 & 43-44,

"Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these

things be accomplished. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall

not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no one, not even the angels

of heaven, neither the Son, but the Father only. 43-44 But know this, that if

the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would

have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken through. 44Therefore be ye also ready; for in an hour that ye think not the Son of man

cometh. " (ASV) clearly showing all would occur in this marked generation and

that in the 1 st. Century even Jesus (Yeshua) did NOT know the exact time, but

only his Father (YHWH).

As alluded to in Matthew 24:44 above, the climax of the end times will arrive as

testified to at 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3, "For yourselves know perfectly that they

day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3 When they are saying, Peace

and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman

with child; and they shall in no wise escape." (ASV); And affirmed at Revelation

16:15, "Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his

garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame." (ASV); And at Proverbs

6:12-15, "A worthless person, a man of iniquity, Is he that walketh with a

perverse mouth; 13 That winketh with his eyes, that speaketh with his feet, That

maketh signs with his fingers; 14 In whose heart is perverseness, Who deviseth

evil continually, Who soweth discord." (ASV); There fore as Luke 21:34-35 says,

"But take heed to yourselves, lest haply your hearts be overcharged with

surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day come on you

suddenly as a snare: 35 for so shall it come upon all them that dwell on the

face of all the earth." (ASV).

THE CONCLUSION AND HOW TO SURVIVE:

FIRST, one must be a meek and righteous person as shown at Zepheniah 2:2-3,

"before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the

fierce anger of Jehovah come upon you, before the day of Jehovah's anger come

upon you. 3 Seek ye Jehovah all ye meek of the earth, that have kept his

ordinances; seek righteousness, seek meekness; it may be ye will be hid in the

day of Jehovah's anger." (ASV);


7/8

SECOND, those wishing to be saved on this day need to per Joel 2:32, "And it

shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of Jehovah shall be

delivered; for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those that escape,

as Jehovah hath said, and among the remnant those whom Jehovah doth call."

(ASV).

THIRD, we must be loving our God (YHWH) with all our might as shown by Psalms

145:20, "Jehovah preserveth all them that love him; But all the wicked will he

destroy." (ASV).

FOURTH, we must accept his Son, the Son of God, Jesus (Yeshua) as our savior as

testified to at John 3:16, ""For God so loved the world, that he gave his only

begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have

eternal life." (ASV); And re-affirmed at Romans 5:9-10, "Much more then, being

now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath of God through him.10 For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of

his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life." (ASV).

FIFTH, we must seek after wisdom as shown at Ecclesiastes 7:11-12, "Wisdom is as

good as an inheritance; yea, more excellent is it for them that see the sun. 12

For wisdom is a defence, even as money is a defence; but the excellency of

knowledge is that wisdom preserveth the life of him that hath it." (ASV).

SIXTH, we must let others know about God (YHWH) and his Son, the Son of God

(YHWH), Jesus (Yeshua) since Romans 10:10 clearly shows, "for with the heart man

believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto

salvation." (ASV); And given as an assignment to all true Christians at matthew

24:14, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a

witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." (AV).

SEVENTH, expect to be among the few in number who will be, per Matthew 10:22,

"And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to

the end, the same shall be saved." (ASV).
