Coronavirus is  One of the Signs of Things to Come

If you’re not new to Biblical prophecy you already have an acute understanding of how many prophetically related events have been converging on a global scale these last several years.  The accelerated increase in these prophetic events has even been labeled as ‘The Convergence” by those who have been faithfully watching and who are in the know.

In retrospect, it would seem that many of these events are foreshadowing larger-scale versions of the same events that will happen during the Tribulation, sort of like ‘sneak previews’.  These relatively smaller-scale events reflect God’s mercy, as they can be considered examples of God telling all of us, “this is your last warning”.  People would be wise to heed these last warnings and acknowledge the Creator of the Universe for who he says he is, and believe that the plans he has laid out for us in the Bible will be carried out.

A few examples of ‘sneak previews’ include:

• The sun has turned black as sackcloth which suggests solar eclipses.
• The moon has turned blood red which suggests lunar eclipses.
• Pestilence inludes Coronavirus (Covid-19), SARs, MERs, Ebola, and even Influenza.
• Plagues include the swarms of billions of locusts devouring crops in Africa, the Middle East, and now Asia.
• Christians are being beheaded for testimony that Jesus / Yeshua, is the Son of God, God in the Flesh, and Savior of Mankind.
• The astronomical alignment of September 23, 2017, could not have been more closely aligned with the description of the pregnant woman who gives birth to a male child in Revelation 12.
• Licentiousness is prolific. Pornography is free, dating apps like Tinder are being used for extra-marital flings, and human trafficking of women and even children for the sex trade is everywhere.
• Abortions are being celebrated and laws are passed that allow a child to be aborted (murdered) up until the point of birth.
• Witchcraft is flourishing.
• Homosexuality has been relentlessly promoted as normal and acceptable to the point that our country now has an unabashed homosexual running for president.
• The promotion of Transgenderism has crossed the line of just being ridiculous to being completely insane.
• Every major ecclesiastical denomination has experienced a split over issues that either involves women clergy and/or homosexual clergy.
• The stream of deception and fake news being reported by major media outlets is relentless. People are believing lies without question.
• The legalization of all kinds of drugs for recreational use is being voter-approved across the country.
• Major earthquakes have been rocking various places throughout the world.
• Multiple volcanoes are now actively erupting.
• The U.S. government has acknowledged that there really is something to all of the reports of UFOs and alien encounters over the last several decades.
• Turkey, Russia, and Iran have formed an alliance for the first time in history.
• Large asteroids have zipped through space barely missing our little spec of a planet.

Even today, 8 weeks into the Coronavirus pandemic, there are mixed opinions.  Some say it’s not that bad, that more people die from Influenza A.  Others say this is just the beginning, that it’s going to get a whole lot worse.  I don’t know exactly how this is going to play out, but based on the charted data I’ve seen, my opinion is that the situation is going to get worse before it gets better.

One possible interpretation of Revelation 6:7-8 is that the “beasts of the earth” may refer to lethal viruses, not wild animals like tigers, lions, and bears.  The word in Greek is ‘therion’, which can mean a little beast or a little animal, like a bee, or savage, a wild animal or wild beast. Of course, two thousand years ago science had not advanced enough for John the Revelator to have any idea what viruses were…but he knew what plague was.

No doubt, our Blessed Hope which is the Rapture is nearer than ever.  Keep looking up, for your redemption draws near. Maranatha!
