Welcome~

Hello and Welcome~


The world is blind to these SEVEN, pivotal facts:

1. The Bible communicates Heaven’s 'Multi-millennial Strategic Plan for Humanity'.

2. There are SEVEN ages appointed for humanity.

3. We are nearing the end of the THIRD age, a pivotal turning point in this strategy.

4. A GREAT falling away from the Christian faith is predicted during the ending days of this THIRD age, as a result of backsliding, general lukewarmness and outright apostasy among the heretofore faithful. Look around and this you will clearly see.

5. Biblical prophecies have been and remain seeds of human history.

6. Yet-fulfilled prophecies, unfolding apace, are worthy of diligent study.

7. Now is the time to get and stay on ‘the right side of Bible prophecy’.

Booty, Pre/Post Millennial Reign (Poem, Part 5)

(See the series here)


‘Have you gathered your army to take booty,
to carry away silver and gold,
to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’
(Ezekiel 38:13)


This key question is predicted at the start,
Of an attack on Israel, then defenseless!
Since nations at that time will be desperate, globally.
This war, the world will not be able to thwart!
Thus, this 5- nation attack will be audacious,
Unaware of The Lord's hand, moving strategically!


Against Israel, this huge war will be launched,

Sometime during the Great Tribulation.

During 7-years of massive death and destruction,

For life’s basics, desperate folk won’t be staunched.

Yet there’s gold in Israel?? Imagine! 1

How in the world can this be? Here is my opinion.


Ways nations accumulate gold now include:

                        -Mining, whether at home or abroad

                       -Military conquest of endowed nations

                       -Donations from endowed nations, gifts accrued

                       -From ancient times, treasure finds that laud

                       -Non-moneyed commercial transactions


By all these means, ancient Israel increased her worth,

From recent gold, gas and oil finds, the nation’s wealth will soar!

Even an ancient gold treasure has been unearthed. 2

Now imagine ‘great tribulation commerce on Earth’,

Onto the 6-6-6 money system’, judgments down poured.

As money fails, the gold standard might be rebirthed! 3


Some time earlier, on Jerusalem’s temple mount,

The third Jewish temple will have been constructed,

Possibly via a decision of the anti-Christ. 4

Recall, The Bible’s detailed historical account,

The tremendous amount of gold God ‘deducted’,

From Israel’s neighbors, plus much gold that Jews sacrificed! 5


The incredible wealth in Israel’s first two temples,

Was >>a magnet<< for foreign army invasions,

Her wealth carried away, and some was paid as ‘tribute dictate’. 6

In The Bible, like puzzle pieces, patterns assembled,

Reveal God’s blessings, and judgments for infractions.

Gog and Magog troops: To the 3rd temple, Come, like fish-to-bait!’ 7


Great wealth in gold and precious resources did freely flow,

In-and-out of ancient Israel, hear the sucking sound,

The Lord’s blessings and judgments, just as Moses predicted. 8

But soon, only Millennial Reign blessings will she know,

For a thousand years, GREAT wealth in Israel will abound,

And will be >>a magnet<< for the world’s final army, afflicted! 9


In The Bible, like puzzle pieces, patterns are portrayed,

To parade the past and predict the future,

To confound all who are fools, and advise all who are wise.

They give the faith-full great hope, but make the faithless ...dismayed.

So for how much of God’s Truth do you hunger??

Are you prepared for what in your life His patterns surmise??
