The Widow's Offering
End Times
God knows that some of us are facing a much harder time than others, and this will be considered when we meet Him before the great white throne (Revelation 20:11–13). We find reference to this in Luke 21 where Jesus allegorically refers to the difference in righteousness between the poor woman who gives much from the little she has and the rich man who gives little from the great amount of wealth he has.
Luke 21
As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. 2 He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. 3 “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 4 All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”
While the allegory refers to actual money, it can also include the energy we have, our natural mood state when we wake in the morning, our ability to socialize with others, and our physical and mental capacity more broadly.
Many of those chosen by Jesus to follow him are deeply traumatized during this age. This is because we are in a harvest season, a suntelia; the period that concludes with God coming in judgment to destroy the status quo to bring about a new world system. This was true leading up to the 70AD Roman destruction of Jerusalem when the apostles walked the earth and is true now as the American global system collapses to give birth to what will eventually become the Luciferian one-world order. We know from Scripture that such times involve the betrayal of God’s elect by family and friends, and the experience of intense hatred from the wider community (Luke 21:16–19). We are told further that during end times people’s hearts turn cold as they become increasingly wicked (Matthew 24:12), yet they carry on living up large, ignoring those with insight into the nature of the times (Matthew 24:36–39).
Luke 21 and Matthew 24 move from a prophetic reference to Jerusalem being surrounded and sacked, to a description of wider global turmoil, for they both point to a global tribulation. Such periods, we are told, exceed all other times in history in terms of their brutality, confusion, and division (Matthew 24:21). In my opinion they are two prophecies in one: one about the fall of Jerusalem in 70AD, and one about the fall of a global empire. Ancient Rome was a model and prototype for the American empire as indicated by symbolism, institutions and military might, and the two follow a similar pattern of degradation and collapse. However, it is America that has been used to develop and implement the structures and technology to enable the one world government system and its supporting financial and religious systems, which will collapse when Christ and the holy angels descend to wage war against the forces of evil. It was traditionally thought that prophecy was both prediction and pattern, and in these Scriptures we find a seamless weaving of both, hence the endless arguments about what time they are referring to.
I don’t know about you, but I feel overwhelmed by it at times. There are moments when I feel deeply in the Word and calm in the face of this storm. However, there are other times that the trauma of all the betrayal and hatred gets the better of me, and I want to give up. I feel a pressure in my mind to conform to the thinking of this world coming from politicians, media and those around me, and when I cut out the outside noise, I deal with involuntary thoughts sent in via witchcraft, astral projection and most likely V2K technology. Alongside the attacks come the involuntary flashbacks, and the resentment: the resentment about living my adult life with neurological pain brought on through a medical mishap in my 20s, and the issues that came with the treatments I used to address this; the resentment of living in a world such as this, where evil lurks even in our most cherished places and institutions.
At times I feel like throwing in the towel. By this I mean, taking down all the online work and hiding away somewhere; but this isn’t what God wants, and on good days nothing gives me satisfaction more than working for God. Moreover, even when fiery darts come from Satan’s kingdom in intense waves of psychic destruction, I take comfort in the fact that God knows I am doing my best. I have repented the times that I backed down from my work to try to fit in with the crowd, although I often have to fight this impulse from taking grip of my mind.
Anyone going through this will know what I mean. Satan, that dragon of old, is hunting the elect ferociously in this hour as he uses his worldly empire to bring in his global system (Revelation 12:13–17; 13:3–5). He needs to silence and demoralize those who may speak too loudly about what is going on, and weaponize society against those who dare to speak the truth, for Satan’s global system is implemented by deceiving the people (Revelation 13:14). To believe in and live in accordance with the Gospel in our age is to be considered mad, and if your opinions slip out in most social circles, you will be judged and rebuked with a series of pre-packaged lines inputted into the semi-conscious majority of the human population.
For those that are deep in this, you will also know what it is like to be gang-stalked, which is just another tactic by those operating in the ‘secret power of lawlessness (2 Thessalonians 2:7)’ to shatter your sense of security in this world, leading others to question your sanity if you speak out about your experience. You are starting to get the picture here: an immense war is going on within the mind, and the building of an intense pressure on true believers to renounce their faith and get in line with the powerful delusion controlling the collective human mindset. However, if you have experienced the Spirit of Truth in your life, you know that you can never unsee what you see, even if you wanted to, leaving you with the daunting reality of a lifetime of psychological and spiritual warfare.
Jesus tells us in Luke 21:14–19 that he will protect us and will even speak through us at times to create certain outcomes. Still, some of God’s elect are prophesied an early death at the hands of the authorities of darkness (Matthew 24:9; Luke 21:16; Revelation 6:9–11; 13:15; 17:6; 20:4)). Suspicious deaths, illnesses and setbacks are to be expected. However, it helps to remind ourselves that even when living in the midst of global turmoil and untimely deaths that God is still in control, and He ultimately decides when people have had enough, and it is time to come home. Moving into an eternal life in Heaven is also no punishment for a person fighting daily on the frontline against the kingdom of darkness, although it is intensely sad and confusing for those left behind.
We were never supposed to love this world and are here to bring people into the kingdom of God in preparation for an eternal life in a better reality: the resurrection of the righteous (Luke 14:4); the paradise that Jesus tells the convict he will be with in after their crucifixion (Luke 23:43). Some believe this is eternally in Heaven, others argue it is temporarily in Heaven and then in the New Earth outlined in Revelation 21, while a third group suggest that the saved resurrect from death into the New Earth, as time is only a construct so an intermediate waiting period in Heaven is unnecessary. Regardless of the finer details, the New Earth as expounded through a literal interpretation would much more resemble Heaven than this world we are currently in, so both scenarios equate to an eternal life in a realm that reflects God’s mind fully, with a similar intense level of joy and lack of pain.
Luke 16:19–31 contrasts those resurrected into paradise with those condemned to Hell, and states that a ‘great chasm’ exists between the two domains: a difficult passage to manage for those that want to dismiss the existence of Hell (a word that means ‘a hidden place’). Revelation 20 and 21 describe this fate waiting for unbelievers, whose names are not written in the book of life, as a lake of fire. Paul describes the fate of unbelievers — those he says do not know Jesus and do not follow the Gospel — as everlasting destruction; a state of being permanently cut off from God (2 Thessalonians 1:9).
I have had people say to me that my take on all this is not in line with the belief that God is love and that Jesus defeated Satan on the cross and our focus should be on this world, as the kingdom of God resides here too. While this is true, there are other aspects of the Bible that need to be considered and the book must be read as a “single integrated message system”, as Chuck Missler liked to call it. God has created a narrative that must play out, and this involves the introduction of the one-world Luciferian system before the return of Christ. This end time scenario is the fulfilment of the human fall into Satan’s grip as outlined in Genesis 3, and the prophesied war on Earth between the seed of the serpent and the seed of Adam (Genesis 3:15).
While Christ struck a mortal blow at Calvary against the serpent, the great war continues, and things will get worse before they get better. For the Gospels, Daniel, and Revelation all tell us of a great fight and global calamities of all types that must occur before the final redemption, including the persecution of the elect, and that there will be periods where it seems as if Satan has the upper hand (Daniel 7:25; 11:33–39; Revelation 13:11–18; 2 Thessalonians 2:1–12). While attempts have been made to argue that aspects of these prophecies were fulfilled by ruthless Roman emperors of the past, or even the Catholic Church, it is in my opinion a preposterous stretch to argue that they have all been fulfilled.
Until Christ returns, and especially during the end times, his followers must carry their own cross if they wish to be disciples (Luke 14:27). Jesus speaks many times in this way (John 15:18–21; 17:14); hence John tells us that we are not to love this world (1 John 2:15–17). It is true that his first arrival brought the second Adam, and the puncturing of the thick web of darkness in which humanity is caught. Yet, for now it is a narrow path, meaning only a select few break free from the metaphysical prison of our fallen nature, and are reborn in Christ, so the kingdom of God is at present limited here on Earth. Moreover, as Paul tells us, even as reborn believers, we live here as dual creatures, with the sin operating system of this world living alongside the sanctifying force of the Spirit of God.
The worldly, modernists whose Christianity dismisses the supernatural elements of all of this and treats Jesus as a type of social reformer that brought in attitudes of justice and forgiveness are living in an intense denial. Imagine knowing about or at the least given easy access to information exposing all the atrocities in the world and saying that there is no Satan, and claiming we are living in a world run by Jesus. It takes a special kind of mind control and denial of reality to reach that conclusion. It is also going to be increasingly bizarre as we enter further into the age of great global turmoil and the revelation of the blackmail, crime, violence, paedophilia, corruption, mind control, paid murder, and lies that have been keeping the status quo intact; and perhaps worse of all, the fact that human souls continue to be trafficked around the globe by those in the highest places, fulfilling the prophetic statement in Revelation 18:13 that the global satanic regime, “(Mystery)Babylon”, would buy and sell the souls of human beings. It is also unbiblical, and I say this as someone who was indoctrinated into such a watered-down version of Christianity in my 20s but then decided to do a deep personal read of the Bible to figure things out for myself, including what Jesus meant when he called Satan the ‘prince of this world’ (John 14:30; 16:11).
So, we find ourselves in a great age of turmoil, with our minds and bodies under constant siege. We find ourselves being betrayed and rejected, scapegoated, and spiritually harassed. However, we should take heart in the fact that this all shows that we are on the right-side of the great war, and that a joyful eternal reality awaits us. The attacks, particularly those of a supernatural flavour, only go to strengthen our faith as they provide more evidence that we are in the midst of a vast spiritual war, so long as we don’t allow the global Beast System to convince us we are insane. For all those going through this, hang on and keep fighting, and don’t be too hard on yourself when you fall short, for God knows our intentions and limitations, and the struggles we face. When times get particularly tough, we may wish to turn to the following verses, and call out to our Father consistently with our wounded souls laid bare:
Luke 18
Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. 2 He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. 3 And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.’
4 “For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or care what people think, 5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’”
6 And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. 7 And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
