lessons today. ---Revelation 12:6 compared to
Revelation 12:12-14 is his thinking. ---John had this vision in future of his
own time, that during 1260 years (day = year principle of the Bible) an
apostate church in the hands of Satan would persecute the people of God. ---It happened as predicted in Daniel
7:25 and in Daniel 9:27 and in Jesus predictions in Matthew 24 of the
persecution ahead for the church. ---A Catholic was asking an Adventist
pastor recently, what proof do we have that the Catholic Church in the Middle
Ages persecuted anyone? ---Good morning. ---There is even a museum in a town in
Germany where you can go and see what the torture methods were for those who
were against the doctrines of the church. ---Lists of books were made for
publications that were taboo. The books were taken in a place where no-one
could go in. ---Even the Franciscans were persecuted
in the 14th century and documents are online. ---They created in those days a kind of
a church manual with teeth. The punishment was very severe. ---The remnant church will be kept in
the wilderness, protected by God in a place prepared for her. Wonderful. I
summarize what Finley collected in the Bible by God of promises how He will
help them in time of need. ---Ukraine is suffering a time of need.
All are praying for them. ---Putin got a spirit in him that is
similar to the spirit Nebuchadnezzar got after megalomania. And Sennacherib
when he was to hear that Taharqa the African ruler is going to kick him out of
Israel. So Sennacherib left. ---Sennacherib wanted the same
destruction of Lachish repeated in Jerusalem in 690/689 BC but God forbid it.
The Angel of the Lord slaughtered 5180 soldiers of Sennacherib in one night. ---Help in the time of need. ---Putin’s advisor Alexandr Dugin has a
strange spirit in him too. Sennacherib was killed in a temple by his own sons. Security
failed at the place of worship. ---In the end-time a global Time of
Trouble is coming and God promised to help those who are faithful to Him. ---We are to seek God on our knees and
render our hearts completely to Him. That is the secret. Are you on your knees?
