They draw iniquity and sin with cords of vanity, while mocking the return of Jesus Christ.

Isaiah 5:18-19

“Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as if with a cart rope…” Isaiah 5:18

The picture below depicts a person drawing iniquity and sin to self. The cord/cart rope being used represents vanity, emptiness, and falsehood. People are drawing iniquity and sin towards them with vain, false, and empty beliefs.

The Jewish people are drawing sin and iniquity towards them with vain, false, and empty beliefs. All sin and iniquity comes as a result of not believing God, who sent Jesus as the Christ and Savior of the world. The Jewish people have vain, false, and empty beliefs about Jesus Christ that cause them to reject Him as the Christ and Son of God. As can be seen in the State of Israel, they are filled with conflict, have the most liberal abortion rights in the world, and embrace the LGBQT lifestyles, etc.

The global government and its global culture are drawing sin and iniquity towards them with false, vain, and empty beliefs. Their faith is in the beast that gives them what to speak, do, think, and feel. They are atheists who deny God, reject Jesus Christ, and do not want the presence of the Holy Spirit in their life. The beast gives breath/life to the image of the beast to speak by speaking and living through people everywhere. By what they say and do they are groomed to the mark, name, and number of the beast. The global population is drawing sin and iniquity to them

“That say, “Let Him make speed and hasten His work, that we may see it…” Isaiah 5:19a

The Jewish people and the global culture are those that say, “Let Him make speed and hasten His work, that we may see it.” In other words, they are saying that they will not accept Jesus as their Christ and Son of God unless they see His works. They want to see a sign. Our Lord Jesus says that His resurrection is the only sign that will be given to them, “Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.” But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.” Matthew 12:38-41 Click here for the posts on the book of Jonah.

As followers of Jesus Christ, our born-again experience is the sign of His resurrection living in us, and is the sign of eternal life to come beyond the grave. Our born-again experience is the Gospel of Jesus Christ written on our heart.

With that said, there is a list of prophecies that have been fulfilled since 1940’s, as listed below,

• 1940^s: Airplanes are mentioned in Daniel 8:5-7. The ability to travel overseas by airplane is related to the ushering in of the global system of the beast. Airplanes capable of flying overseas began around 1920’s, but the airplanes talked about in Daniel 8 were created around 1940 [related to WW2].
• 1945: The global government of the United Nations was established immediately after WW2, which brought the government of the beast with it, as described in Daniel 8 and also Revelation 17.
• 1945 thereabouts. The beast that has power over physiology to give people what to think, feel, do, and say is here. That beast gives breath/life to the image of the beast to speak by speaking/living through people in every city around the world. The masses of the global culture are groomed to the mark, number, name of the beast by what they say and do. That is described in Revelation 13. That beast is the power center of the global government of the beast.
  
  The only place this is mentioned is in the Bible, so of course there are no public records of its beginnings. This is the one “…who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 The “him” in this verse is the “man of sin”. Click here for a post on the “man of sin”. “….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’” Revelations 2:24-25
• 1948: The Jewish people have been gathered to the State of Israel in 1948, where God unleashes the fury of His judgment on them, as described in Ezekiel 22:19-20, Ezekiel 36:22, and Ezekiel 20:34.
• 1950^s through 1970^s: The seven continents were not discovered until research revealed them through the 1950^s and 1970^s. The beast, in the book of Revelations, is known to be on seven continents involving ten kingdoms [making it a global presence]. We are living in the days of the global presence of the beast.
• 1988 or thereabouts: Global warming is here and is the Fourth Plagued mentioned in Revelation 16:8-9. The more powerful the United Nations becomes as the one world government, the hotter and more intense the effects of global warming becomes. Global warming is instrumental in destroying the power center of the beast [Fifth Plague], rendering the world government and its global culture powerless. At that time, the beast with power over physiology to give people what to think, feel, say, and do will not be functioning. That leads to the Battle of Armageddon in the Sixth Plague, followed by the Day of the Lord and the return of Jesus Christ. Click for a full post on the Seven Plagues.
• 2025: The President of the United States signed into law a bill to make the USA the “crypto-capital” of the world, called the “GENIUS Act”. This lays the foundation for the cashless society. Click here for an article on the signing of the “GENIUS” ACT. “For before these days, there were no wages for man nor any hire for beast; There was no peace from the enemy for whoever went out or came in; For I set all men, everyone, against his neighbor.” Zechariah 8:10 The phrase, “for before these days”, refers to the days leading up to global tribulation. Click here for a post on Zachariah 8:10.
• Also, Jesus Christ has come in the flesh 2000 years ago to fulfill the prophecies of the Bible.

“And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it.” Isaiah 5:19b

In the days of the Israelites, they lost all hope and quit believing in the coming of their Christ, as Isaiah prophesied about. They mockingly were saying, “…let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it…”. They should have maintained their belief and faith because the counsel of the Holy One did come, whose name is Jesus, the Christ sent by God. When He did come, 2025 years ago, they didn’t recognize Him as their Christ because they didn’t know the scriptures. The Pharisees and scribes were so spiritually corrupt that the prophecies of the coming of Christ was not even recognizable, as described in Matthew 23.

As followers of Jesus Christ, we maintain our faith that Jesus is coming again as prophesied about in the Bible. Let’s not be counted among those who mockingly say, “…let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it…”. All the signs are here for all the world to see, as described in the list in the previous section of this post. Global warming is in the sky for every single person in every city around the world to see. Global warming is the Fourth Plague of Revelations 16:8-9. “And men were scorched with great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God who has power over these plagues; and they did not repent and give Him glory.” Revelations 16:9

….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.
