And There Will Be Signs
Whenever we see the word "sign" in scripture, we must always ask, "of what?" Are eclipses, blood moons, and constellations prophetically significant? Keep in mind that "correlation is not causation".

Salvation is an offer of adoption that you accept by trusting the Jesus who rose from the dead. It's a gift, so you can't earn it or work to keep it; you can only live in humble gratitude for it.
Jesus is the only way to be reconciled and adopted by God as our Father. This is the Good News! Jesus Christ died for our sins according to Bible prophecy (the word of God), then he was buried, and then he was raised on the third day according to prophecy.
When we accept this Good News, we’re sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, guaranteed eternal life and cleared of all charges. Then we live to please our Savior.

Spiritists, Occultists, and Esotericists, Oh My!
Much of what people think is new and better spirituality is neither new nor better. "What exists now is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done; there is nothing truly new on earth." (Eccl. 1:9 NET) The purpose of this study is to reinforce the necessity of God's Word as the anchor of truth and light that exposes all falsehood, and to expose all other spiritualist philosophies has having one thing in common: hatred of that true Light by the false light. "For such are fake apostles, fraudulent workers who try to pass themselves off as apostles of Christ. And this should come as no surprise; Satan presents himself as an angel of light. So it is to be expected that his servants also present themselves as servants of righteousness. But in the end they will get what they deserve." (2 Cor. 11:13-15 TGNT)

Mandela Effect claim: Bible over memory is idolatry
Idolatry refers to the worship of a cult image or idol as though it were a deity. Is it idolatry to defend and honor the Bible because it comes from God? If so, were all those who gave their lives to preserve the Bible (so Mandela believers could read it) idolaters, or perhaps just fools? How is it NOT idolatry to put one's own subjective memories above the words of God?

Because of that, we live in humble gratitude, since this isn't a license to sin.

The Star of Bethlehem
The Magi (official advisors to the king as “diviners”) from east of Israel, likely learned about this star from the influence of Daniel long before then. They arrived at least a year after Jesus’ birth (a few years BC), since later Herod killed all boys under 2 to try and destroy his imagined rival to the throne. An aster was any celestial body, and all celestial bodies move east to west. But this one moved south from Jerusalem to Bethlehem after the Magi asked Herod’s court about “his” (the King of the Jews) star”. It’s possible that it was the glory of God’s presence, which can move (Ex. 13:20-22, 2 Chron. 7:1). A desire to make it “natural” is a desire to make scripture bow to “science”.

The Tribulation: The Seven Bowls and Babylon
Covering mainly Rev. 15-19. It's likely that the bowls are poured out near the end of the Tribulation, as life will be impossible much beyond that. They appear to happen in rapid succession once they begin. Chs. 15-16 cover the bowls, while 17-19 focus on the doom of Babylon.

Salvation is an offer of adoption that you accept by trusting the Jesus who rose from the dead. It’s a gift, so you can't earn it or work to keep it; you can only live in humble gratitude for it. Jesus is the only way to be reconciled and adopted by God as our Father. This is the Good News! Jesus Christ died for our sins according to prophecy, then he was buried, and then he was raised on the third day according to prophecy. When we accept this Good News, we’re sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, guaranteed eternal life and cleared of all charges. Then we live to please our Savior.

The Tribulation: Midpoint Signs & Visions
Covering mainly Rev. 12-14. That the contents are identified as signs indicates that not everything in Revelation is to be taken symbolically or allegorically. Signs also point to realities, not mere concepts or ideals. These signs look both backward and forward in time.

Birthpangs of Judgment: The Seven Seals
Covering mainly Rev. 4:1-8:5. After the Departure of the Body of Christ, the wrath of God begins. The Seal judgments, also called “birth pangs” or “the beginning of sorrows”, begin with the formation of a “new world order” as a reaction to the shock of the disappearance of dead and living Christians from around the world. It’s composed of ten kings and their kingdoms, including a world capital of finance and religion in Babylon. This provides the environment out of which the Antichrist arises.
