APOCALYPTIC SHAKING OF THE HEAVENS

KEY TO JUDGMENTS: ASTEROID TO HIT EARTH

Hebrews 12:26-28 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised,

saying, "Yet once more I will not only shake the earth, but also the heavens."

And this word, "Yet once more," signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, so that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.

Luke 21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in different places, and famines and plagues. And there shall be terrors and great signs from Heaven.

Mark 13:25 and the stars of Heaven shall fall, and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken.

God uses stars and the heavens as signs to those on the earth.

Matthew 2:2 saying, Where is He who is born king of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east and have come to worship Him.

Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to divide between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years.

Isaiah 38:8 behold, I will bring again the shadow of the steps, which has gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten steps backward. So the sun returned ten steps, by which steps it had gone down.

Joshua 10:13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stood still, until the people had avenged themselves on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jasher? And the sun stood still in the midst of the heavens, and did not hasten to go down about a whole day.

Secular history records that the plagues of Egypt affected all the Middle East and was a result of a comet hit. The hot stones that fell were meteorites.

COMETS ARE SEEN FOUR YEARS PRIOR TO A NEGATIVE EVENT ON EARTH.

Haley’s comet: 66 AD 4 years prior to destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem.

12 BC Herod builds Temple platform

1910 AD Before World War I

1988 AD Before Gulf War

August 9, 1974 Japanese comet seen 4 years prior to the fall of 10 nations of the common market and Nixon leaving office.

Hale Bopp comet: April 27 1993: British mandate in Israel ended. July 23, 1995 Hale Bopp went through Sagittarius the half beast representing the Antichrist; Passed through Orion in 1998 which the Jews say is a sign that the earth would be destroyed. The last time Hale Bopp was seen was 4200 years ago when Noah was building the ark.

Four years prior to 911 a star shaped like a sword was seen in the in the skies above Italy in the paw of Leo the Lion. This was also seen at the destruction of the Jerusalem temple in 70 AD.

Eclipses: Sun darkens and moon looks like blood: Blood moon sign of something bad happening to Israel. Sun eclipse means trouble for the world. No more than 7 eclipses in one year. This happened twice in the 29^th century in 1917 (Russian Revolution) and during World War II, and 1973 during the Yom Kippur War that almost annihilated Israel. World leaders were falling in 1973.

Last Days: Bizarre activity in the heavens. Final 7 years = Tribulation.

Daniel 12:1; Matthew 24:22; Revelation 6:16; Isaiah 13:9

And at that time Michael shall stand up, the great ruler who stands for the sons of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation; until that time. And at that time your people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

And unless those days should be shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the elect's sake, those days shall be shortened.

And they said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him sitting on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb;

Behold, the day of Jehovah comes, cruel and with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land waste; and He shall destroy its sinners out of it.

Revelation chapter 8 starts the seal and trumpet judgments.

WHAT IS THE TRIGGER? An asteroid hits the earth. This begins the judgments. The judgments are a result of the asteroid or comet. Mark 13:24-25; Isaiah 13:10,13. Earth knocked off its axis.

But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

Mar 13:25 and the stars of Heaven shall fall, and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken.

Isa 13:10 For the stars of the heavens and their constellations shall not give light; the sun shall be darkened in its going forth, and the moon shall not reflect its light.

Isa 13:13 So I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall move out of its place, in the wrath of Jehovah of Hosts, and in the day of His fierce anger.

Rev 6:13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs when she is shaken by a mighty wind.

Rev 6:14 And the heaven departed like a scroll when it is rolled together. And every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

There will be tsunamis and giant earthquakes. Science has reported that the atmosphere where an asteroid hits will be heated to 280 degrees. It will send molten metal in the atmosphere which will fall back down heating the air to 700 degrees. Only people that can survive will be in caves, caverns and bunkers. Particles would cover the earth and cause darkness for weeks causing starvation, pestilence and drought.

Results of hit

Tsunami causing destruction of ships destroying 1/3 of sea creatures and 1/3 of ships.
Water becomes undrinkable: wormwood. See Rev. 8:10-11.
Darkening of sun and moon. Asteroid or comet sends up covering. Rev. 8:12
Hailstones of fire. Rev. 16:21 1/3 of trees and grass destroyed.
Heat of the earth: Rev. 16:9. Men scorched with the heat. Science says the earth would be 7 X hotter than normal. Isaiah 30 speaks of 7 fold light of sun. People will run for bunkers, caves and caverns. Many countries already have these. Kings, great men, rich men, powerful men and military men will have access. Normal people will have to run for any shelter they can find.

WHERE WILL IT HIT?

Process of elimination:

Mediterranean or Black Sea: this would wipe Israel, Egypt, Lebanon out. These places exist to the end when Jesus returns to the earth, so it can’t be there.
Persian Gulf: This is the oil area. Antichrist will have the fat places (fat = oil) These countries still have a place in the tribulation to the end, so it can’t be there!
Atlantic Ocean: Europe! This is the kingdom of the Antichrist. Isaiah 2:10-11 gives clue to the location. Ships of Tarshish. This is located in Spain. (Remember the Spanish Inquisition)
Terrible earthquake levels mountains and causes the islands of the sea to disappear and cities to fall down.
France, Britain, Spain, West Africa, Ireland, Nordic area destroyed.
Tsunami will go to east coasts of North and South America to 50 miles inland (according to scientific speculation) Remember the movie DEEP IMPACT. They had it pretty accurate.

Nebuchadnezar’s great image had the two legs of iron. 1 leg = east and the other leg = west.

Antichrist will battle with the King of the North, South and East. The West is missing.

King of the North not Russian, it is Turkey. Turkey is a super power (never gets mentioned in media) but Israel well aware of their capabilities. They are the ones Israel dreads the most. They have military might.

No west: Western Europe wiped out and coastlines of North and South America.

Get ready! It is coming. Repent of your sins and ask Jesus into your heart today! You don’t want to be left behind to face these horrors and it is coming very, very soon.
