[00:00:01] I'm Rich Young iii. And this is an amazing thing.
[00:00:17] I'm here to facilitate learning the word of God on a fundamental level.
[00:00:23] So join me and let's grow together and build a relationship with our creator.
[00:00:29] And that starts now.
[00:00:39] Hello, everybody. Welcome to an amazing thing. Thank you for joining me today. This is our early week lesson where we deal with Bible prophecy, current events, things happening around the world that let us know where we are in God's prophetic time clock. Today's lesson is a Scenario two, the War of a Third.
[00:00:56] This is a show that will talk about a scenario that could possibly lead us to that very devastating prophecy that's just ahead of us.
[00:01:06] To bring everybody up to speed, we know that five of the seven trumpets of the book of Revelation have already sounded. There are three series of seven, seven seals, the seven trumpets and the seven vials. I believe that the first trumpet was World War I. The second trumpet, World War II, third trumpet, the Chernobyl accident. The fourth trumpet, the shortening of the days. The fifth trumpet, the desert Storm, Desert Shield, when Saddam Hussein went and took a weight. And now we're just beyond or just in front of us is the sixth trumpet that the end result is supposed to be the destroying of a third of the population of the earth, when that's very, very amazing prophecy which is devastating.
[00:01:55] And the sixth trumpet tells us that there are four angels that will be loosed at a particular time. That's what. Where we get the, the month, the day, the. The hour and the. In the year to do a specific thing. We know that God, when the fullness of time comes is when God acts and allows things to happen. And that is the case here.
[00:02:16] So these, the scripture that goes on to, from, from. From not just the, the chapter nine, verses 13 through 15, it goes on to 21. But for the sake of this lesson, we'll stop there and continue to show you what this means.
[00:02:32] Who are the seven?
[00:02:33] Who are the four angels and what is their purpose here?
[00:02:37] Hebrews chapter 1, verse 14 lets us know that angels are ministering spirits to those who are the heirs of salvation.
[00:02:46] Well, these angels that are bound in the great river Euphrates, they are not good angels that are ministering for the good. They have to be evil angels ministering to those who are the heirs of damnation. And we know that a third of the angels rebel with Satan and these are probably in that class that they have to be bound because they are ministering spirits that are there to take away peace from the earth.
[00:03:10] So also the Bible refers to angels, especially the ones of this world, being ministering spirits or the princes of this world for evil things.
[00:03:22] And so we know that In Daniel chapter 10, verses 13 through 21, everybody's familiar with this. An angel appeared to Daniel to bring him an answer to the prayers that he was praying. He tells Daniel that I would have been here the first day is 21 days later, but the Prince of Persia withstood me and I had to have help from the angel Michael. And now I'm here with your answer to your prayer. And so obviously the, this prince, that is the Prince of Persia was withholding what God was doing in Daniel's life, so it would show you that he's evil.
[00:04:00] And there are three more angels that are also bound, that are evil angels and have to be bound or these things would come to pass long before God would allow them or set forth in time for them to happen here.
[00:04:17] So this appears to mean that every country has their own angel and with different ranks and over different territories, if you will. And so this is what we gain from these scriptures that we're reading here. Now this war begins at the Euphrates river where these angels are bound.
[00:04:39] And so all of the, the countries that, that house the Euphrates river, all Islamic countries, it starts up in Turkey, comes down through Syria, all the way through the duration of Iraq, and empties off along about 60 miles or so along the border of Iran. So this is very, very precise where this is going to take place. And this lets us know that the angels that are going to be loosed are going to begin this debacle. And the worst thing that we've ever seen as human beings on the earth will begin in that region.
[00:05:14] Okay, we know that God's time clock is very, very specific. The prophecies that come to pass won't happen before it's time for them to come to pass. And they won't be prolonged to come long after their they're supposed to happen. So that's what this, the, the time frame given is to show us there.
[00:05:34] So we are in a war right now with Iran. The United States is allied with Israel to take away Israel's attempt to gain a nuclear weapon. But we'll have to see how this can lead to this devastating thing that's just ahead of us now. When the angels are loose, they begin evil ministering spirits to along these four countries here.
[00:06:03] Much of Iran's military might and their ships and armaments have been destroyed, but they still have quite a lot of ballistic missiles. At the time of this recording. So we know that they're still able to do some damage to their neighbors and maybe some of the ships and armaments that the United States and Israel are using here, they may decide to go for broke and just launch them all. And so that's something that can very easily provoke other countries to become involved in this if they start to shoot at their neighbors, they're surrounded by and they have some of those weapons that are very long range, so they can reach a lot a long distance in territory away. Now we know that Iran's major allies are Russia, China and North Korea.
[00:06:56] So who could be provoked to intervene in this war if it starts to get out of hand for Iran? Neither Russia nor China tend to go all the way when it becomes to protecting one another.
[00:07:09] And so I don't believe that both of them will participate as this thing progresses. If this is the scenario that leads to the war of a third, I believe that Russia will choose not to participate because she's already involved with a war with Ukraine. That's all they can handle right now, it seems to me.
[00:07:31] So who would be the opposing forces? Just see if this thing takes off and these allies of Iran join into the fight and starts fighting in the Middle east to get this thing spiraling out of control, we know that the United States will be leading these opposing forces and the opposing forces will probably be just. This is a scenario where this thing could get out of hand. We know that Japan, South Korea, Australia, the Philippines, Taiwan, who are already sharing bases and training maneuvers and things like that with one another.
[00:08:10] And China certainly see these countries as enemies.
[00:08:17] So as this thing will spiral out of control, we can see how the sides would form to make up the allies of each of these, of these people here.
[00:08:28] So also we'll know that the forces will be sucked into the conflict even more than the ones I named as this progresses. Now, this is a scenario that I'm painting. I don't know that it'll start from what I'm talking about here, but this is a scenario that could happen. But we know that the war is going to happen because the Bible says that it that is going to. We know that India and Pakistan are enemies and both of whom are, are nuclear powers. And so the war will include probably most of the Islamic world. Once you start shooting missiles at each other, you tend to people want to get even for past atrocities that they consider atrocities there.
[00:09:12] And so we can see how India and Pakistan are enemies and they're both nuclear powers. So we can See how that certainly could, could come into play here. And so not all the players that's gonna, this is obviously going to spiral into a world war. And not all the players of this will be there at the beginning. But as this war progresses, people will join on and get sucked in because of their allies with different countries and whatnot.
[00:09:40] And so we know that this talks about a third of mankind. And that's the most devastating war that the world will have ever known or will ever know. Our present population now is approximately 8.3, 8.4 billion that people say. So one third of that would easily go to 2.7 billion. And we have to remember that there has never been a war that reached into the billions. 52 million people died in World War II. And this will be 50 some odd times that war.
[00:10:19] And that certainly will be a situation that will certainly get out of hand. And so how long would this last and how would it end?
[00:10:31] Well, when you get into a situation like this, those evil ministering spirits will be enticed and then be. Entice other countries to, to join in with this.
[00:10:43] And many of them will, will, will start to use the nuclear weapons. Because, you know, when you start dealing with hundreds of millions of people dying, you'll, I believe that the nuclear weaponry will, they'll be motivated with this can end things quickly.
[00:10:59] But the aftermath of using nuclear weapons is a greater number dead.
[00:11:05] And so that certainly is going to be one of the considerations that they will use to try to end this.
[00:11:12] And so who will take, how long will it take to clean this mess up?
[00:11:18] Now, like we said before, once this thing gets out of hand and they start to use nuclear weapons, it's not going to be very last very, very long.
[00:11:26] It'll be very, very quickly to, to end this.
[00:11:29] And so the, the effort will have to be made to clean up after this war. And certainly United States is going to be involved in it.
[00:11:38] So the world will probably start to look at the United States as being, you know, the, the one who started all this trouble.
[00:11:48] And this is going to have to be started immediately for the cleanup for health reasons, you know, that, that many people did. Contamination tends to follow. We also will have nucleic floating in the air. So this is going to be the most devastating thing that we could possibly imagine.
[00:12:09] And you know, and some of the countries that have participated in the devastation will have to be a part of the cleanup effort and that effort will have to be done as quickly as possible. So we'll all have to be a part of that what will the world look like after this world war that has destroyed a third of the population of the Earth?
[00:12:34] Well, the world will look at what it considers the causes of these types of mass atrocities, such as religion. We know that that's a major cause for conflict, political conflict.
[00:12:49] And the conclusion that people will come, come to all over the world will be, we can't have this, that all religions are valid pathways to salvation and truth and living in the afterlife and all those kinds of things. Anyone opposing this view or this opinion would be considered a troublemaker, proponent of genocide and all those sorts of things, agitating for violence. You know, we've seen what this kind of thought has done. We've never seen a war like this.
[00:13:23] So we need you to stop being an agitation.
[00:13:28] You know, your way is not the only way. And we'll have. All the people who are politically and religiously exclusive will be seen as troublemakers. Well, when you think about Christianity as a whole, we know that Jesus said that unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.
[00:13:48] So that's probably as religiously exclusive as you could possibly get.
[00:13:54] But yet this, after this was over, that's going to be frowned upon. When people use that kind of language to say that their way is the only way. This will lead to beginning and the strengthening of the one world government that will already have been rising to try to stop this war that has killed so many. The European Union, which is not a participant in this war. How do we know that? We look at the aftermath and what the Bible says about that. And we'll have to have future lessons to let you know where these things are and how we can come to that conclusion. So the European Union is not a participant in this, but will be in the center of the power in the aftermath of this situation here. The Bible tells us that most of the participants will be destroyed because, you know, you start talking about a third of mankind, a third of the population of the Earth.
[00:14:48] You know, you, you know, that's a great deal of people.
[00:14:52] You know, China, who will probably be involved, has a population of about 1.4 billion. India about the same.
[00:15:01] So if you destroyed most of China, most of India, you still have a lot of millions of people that you'll have to. That will have to be destroyed in order to equal that number. And that number tells us that these are the people that would be destroyed. Well, you could have, you could be somewhere with some type of contamination or sickness, wishing you could go on to the hereafter and can't so that's just the part of the devastation of what this is going to be about. And how long will it take that people will live on with the ailments and things that this war has been a part of that brought on to the world. And we can't answer those questions because we've never done anything like this before. So there's nothing, no pattern that we could use. We know that the Bible tells us that the United States will not be totally destroyed because we protect Israel throughout the Great Tribulation, we which is a future event beyond this war of a third.
[00:16:02] So we know that we live on here now.
[00:16:05] The United States will be considerably weakened by this, having to use up a lot of its armaments and whatnot, and will be considered a pariah. They're the ones who stirred up all this trouble because we believe in a nation state, which is what our prison administration believes in, and we don't want to be a part. And traditionally we've never been a part of any worldwide system. And we know that our founding fathers, in particular, George Washington, warned us against becoming a part of these sorts of things. So this will continue throughout this time frame, even though it's not going to be very long. When you start thinking about the final seven years and the Great Tribulation and these things, that's not a long time for us to get away from what this country has traditionally believed. So I believe that will continue, especially if members of the present American administration go on to maybe win the next election after Donald Trump's four years is up.
[00:17:14] But the United States will maintain enough power to be a formidable player in the end time, to be the foe as well as an enemy of the one world governmental system that will rise at that time.
[00:17:29] So the United States will continue to be a part of it because we know that the one world governmental system is that system that will come against Israel at the end of the Great Tribulation, where we will have protected Israel all the way through the Great Tribulation. So we know we maintain some power to be able to do that and to be a formidable foe of the one world governmental army. They may eventually, I mean, they'll be threatening us throughout this period of time. But will they?
[00:18:04] You know, we don't know how what they'll, how they will view America. We do have third and fourth and fifth strike capability. And I believe that our nuclear sub subs and those kinds of things is the catalyst that will protect us from them and as well as protect Israel from the one world governmental system. Throughout the final days that's just ahead of us, most of the world will see one girl world governmental system begin to grow. You know, this world war will have, have, will be the source of such great disdain for war and these types of things that peace and well being of the world will be built. And they'll build that one army that will be, have teeth. And probably in the next few weeks we will produce a lesson talking about that one world governmental army and maybe our next early week lesson where we'll have to go and talk about that more.
[00:19:02] But the one world governmental system, which will be seen ultimately as peace through strength, you know, they'll look at that who can fight with them and, and you'll hear people say, you know, one army can't fight with itself. So one army is a necessary thing to prevent us being able to go to war against other countries who won't go along with the way we see things.
[00:19:28] But we know that any system that is that strong as the Bible predicts that this one world government is going to be and has absolute power, it always produce, produces a tyrannical leader in charge of a tyrannical system that wants to force the people to bow to its edicts and to the things that they're going to believe that we know that that one world governmental system is going to produce this one world leader which is the Antichrist and the false prophet is going to be a part of it. And that is the, the system that is going to lead all these, these things that are going to come in just ahead of us to come to pass.
[00:20:13] We know that our president American administration don't want to be a part of a one world governmental system.
[00:20:20] President Trump and his cabinet believes in the, in the nation state, which has been downplayed and said that this is a disastrous thing throughout the world. And so I think what's just ahead of us is going to be what brings this one world governmental system into power and most of the world. The Bible says that all the world, he'll be in charge of all the world.
[00:20:47] But when we read certain scriptures, we know that there are some countries that are going to elude him because he fights wars all the way through his power, which is three and a half years of the great tribulation.
[00:21:00] So we know, kind of know how this is going to turn out. But what we're seeing right now certainly is going to be a part of it. And whether this particular event that we're witnessing right now between us and Israel and Iran trying to fought their nuclear Ambitions certainly is one aspect of how a scenario like this can come to pass. We know that it's going to come to pass. Now, whether this is it or not, we don't know. But we can kind of talk about the scenarios. And the purpose of this show is to get us used to talking about these things and possible scenarios so that we can understand the things that the Bible is saying to us and how they could possibly come to pass.
[00:21:45] And so that is something we'll talk about. And we'll be right back right after this message.

[00:23:05] This has been a scenario to the war of a third and like I said before, it doesn't have to happen this way. And if this Iran situation dies down and the United States and Israel accomplishes what they set out to accomplish and there's a regime change in Iran, then something else will have to pop up because we know we are living in the time when these things will come to pass.
[00:23:31] But this is just a scenario and other scenarios will pop up if this is not the one that that leads us to this.
[00:23:38] And so we will continue to have shows like this and I thank you for being a part of an amazing thing and make sure you subscribe to the show so that you won't miss anything.
