PROPHECY OF 2 CITIES (Damascus & Babylon) & 2nd SHOE TO DROP BEFORE THE RAPTURE

America—A City Upon a Hill

 

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. - Matthew 5:14 KJV

 

This is the verse John Winthrop, who was the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and the chief figure among the Puritan founders of New England, had in mind as he composed a sermon while sailing towards America:

 

As Winthrop sailed west on the Arbella in the spring of 1630, he composed a lay sermon, “A Modell of Christian Charity,” in which he pictured the Massachusetts colonists in covenant with God and with each other, divinely ordained to build “a Citty upon a Hill” in New England, with “the eyes of all people” on them: 

"If we deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken and so cause Him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a byword throughout the world; we shall open the mouths of enemies to speak evil of the ways of God and all believers in God; we shall shame the faces of many of God’s worthy servants and cause their prayers to be turned into curses upon us, till we are forced out of the new land where we are going." britannica.com

Winthrop knew the importance of God’s promise in Deuteronomy 28 that if they followed the ways of God He would bless them and if they did not they would be forced out of America! Here we are around 400 years later facing a time where America has dealt falsely with God and so caused “Him to withdraw His present help from us”.

 

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. - Matthew 5:13 KJV

 

America has lost its salt and sadly is about to be trodden under foot of men!

 

A recent example of our nation’s moral decay is the travesty that is seen in Western North Carolina. If you go to any of the small towns there affected by Hurricane Helene, it looks positively apocalyptic. I am not easily moved but tears sprung from my eyes as I read this article by blogger Daisy Luther, The SHTF in Western NC. The Govt. Is Making Everything Worse. Her article—which is NOT misinformation—includes a number of short videos some of which are "incredibly disturbing".

 

What has happened to this nation and its current sad relationship with Israel is also incredibly disturbing.

America—Great City to Fall

 

If the United States is the Daughter of Babylon, then she has gone from being a shining city on a hill to being a city that will fall in one hour:

 

And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. - Revelation 14:8 KJV 

And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate. - Revelation 18:19 KJV

 

WHEN might America fall?

 

As has been my mantra for years now—when the Two-State Solution is established and Jerusalem is divided, America’s demise will be sealed (see Babylon and The Last Call). It is possible Those in Christ will witness this because the Daughter of Babylon (America) will be destroyed just prior to the Book of Daniel’s 70^th Week or The Tribulation while Mystery Babylon and Babylon the Great fall during the Tribulation.

DamascusàPeace PlanàShakingàRapture

 

In my studies I have seen a correlation between the destruction of Damascus and Babylon. I join those who believe we are on the verge (FINALLY!) of seeing these prophecies come to pass—prophecies indicating the imminent Rapture of Those in Christ!

 

Here’s my thinking/guessing out loud: It will be the fulfillment of Isaiah 17:1 and Jeremiah 49, the destruction of Damascus, that will end the current Middle East War. Israel has warned that it would destroy Damascus, Syria (see Israel Launches Offensive In Response To Hamas Attack posted October 9, 2023). In a message delivered to Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah through senior officials in the French government, Israel has threatened to destroy Damascus and may even consider eliminating Iran-backed Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

 

And here we are with Syria now front and center in the Middle East conflict:

 

“That’s it, ladies and gentlemen:

Assad is surrounded from east, south, and north.

The final battle will be over Damascus!

We are watching history!” Amir Tsarfati

2nd Shoe to Drop NOW then Rapture?

If Israel decides to obliterate Damascus, the nations will be outraged and will demand a Peace Plan that incorporates the Two-State Solution thus fulfilling the prophecies of the final dividing of God’s land, Israel. (I shared this possible scenario back in April 2024 with 2nd Shoe to Drop NOW then Rapture?) So perhaps the *preliminary covenant referred to in Daniel 9:27 that the Antichrist will later confirm is the Peace Plan at the conclusion of the Middle East War.

 

Then they will cry, “Peace and safety” (1 Thessalonians 5:3). The Lord has revealed to me (and others) that in this time of so-called “peace and safety” His great army will arise as judgment begins to fall on the United States (see "New York, Chicago, L.A."), which includes a great earthquake that will split America in half. At this point in my understanding, I do not believe this is the time of God’s wrath yet! 

 

The spiritual battle is raging all around you, but I wish for you to rest in Me knowing all is in My hands and it is not My will that any should perish. 

Continue to watch, but also be at the ready for even a retreating army does not turn its back on the enemy! The time for My Bride to hear the last trump nears. She is not retreating but is being called home to rest. But til then, Beloved, fight on! I know you feel you have but a little strength but that is when My grace is sufficient and My strength is made greater within you! Shine, My brilliant ones, SHINE! You are the glory of My head and the joy of My heart and I too long for that day when we are together. [Excerpt from The Last Trump]

 

With America in this weakened state, foreign entities hidden within the nation will emerge to attack; then nuclear war will break out as World War 3 truly goes global. God has revealed the Rapture would occur as nuclear missiles fall (see TICK TOCK--WHEN THEY COME DOWN, WE GO UP!)  Also this great global conflict would lead to the rise of the man of sin who will confirm the Daniel 9:27 covenant and supposedly bring ordo ab chao —“order out of chaos”.

Rapture no later than Spring?

 

In Rapture Less Than 6 Months? Possible Clue With The Former & Latter Rain! Aaron from God A Minute YTC explains how the Rapture might occur in Spring based on the “former and latter rains”. I’m uncertain if Aaron mentioned this or not, but I wonder if the Lord coming for His Bride will be in the Spring (former rains) and His second coming to earth will be in the Autumn (latter rains).

In The Star of Jacob’s Trouble, Trump, and the Year 5785, I wrote about why the celestial signs, the Shemitah Cycle, the Essenes and even the United Nations together indicate Daniel's 70th Week is to begin in the Hebrew Year of 5785 (2024-2025). My hopeful speculation is the Rapture will occur no later than Nisan 1, 5785, (March 29, 2025) following the announcement that the Two-State Solution will be implemented. After the Rapture the Antichrist will gabar or geber, confirm or strengthen, the Two-State Solution making it a covenant of death with Israel in the Autumn of 2025. 

 

*Gāḇar refers to confirming or strengthening something that already exists as in the waters that prevailed in the flood:  

And the waters prevailed,[gāḇar] and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. - Genesis 7:18 KJV  

The waters were already there but increased. Therefore, it is my understanding that Daniel 9:27 means the Antichrist strengthens or makes more firm an already agreed upon covenant. 

I believe the covenant that will already be in place is an agreement incorporating the Two-State Solution. [Excerpt from  Lo, He Comes!]

The Dominoes to fall leading to the Rapture could begin this holiday season as some have warned. If this takes place, do not fear but be of GOOD CHEER realizing that things are not falling apart, they are falling into place for the Rapture! America is at the turning point of the 400-year mark. The Israelites were in Egypt 400 years then came their redemption! The world is a type of Egypt and like the Israelites, we are due to escape our Egypt!

P.S. How you can help

 

"I’m appalled that our FEMA tax dollars are housing illegal immigrants in fancy hotels and giving them thousands of dollars to get settled, while our own people are living in third world conditions."

Perhaps a church in your area is collecting donations for this effort.

 

Appalachia's Homestead with Patara is sponsoring a 🎅Giving Tree for 90 Mountain Children! In the Description Box there's a link for giving.

 

Also, our Brother Tyler at Generation2434 recently posted a live interview with Dr. Barry and Danialle Awe who are boots on the ground continuing to give aid in this crisis. Tyler pinned a comment listing links where people can give to Dr. Barry and his wife or through several other sources.

 

I realize many cannot afford to give financially but PRAYER as you are guided by the Holy Spirit is priceless.
