In writing to his “dear children” in the Lord, the apostle John tells them that “the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world” (1 John 4:4). The contrast here is between the Spirit of Christ and the spirit of antichrist; in short, God is greater than Satan.
First John 4 begins with an exhortation for believers to test the spirits of prophets or teachers: “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world” (1 John 4:1). What a prophet or teacher proclaims reveals whether he is of God or a false prophet of the world. John tells us how to recognize a false prophet: “Every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist” (verse 3). Anyone who teaches or proclaims falsehood about Jesus, such as denying His divinity, is a false prophet. These false prophets are actually speaking in the spirit of the antichrist on behalf of “the one who is in the world,” Satan.
The word antichrist means “against Christ.” Satan is the ultimate spirit against Christ. He is the father of lies and is against truth (John 8:44). He is called “the ruler of this world” (John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11) and “the god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4). He is “the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient” (Ephesians 2:2). Satan uses false prophets to lead people away from Christ by deceiving them with a false view of Jesus. Twisting who Jesus is perverts the gospel. It keeps people in the bondage of sin and in darkness. Yet Satan is not as powerful as God, and John reminds the believers in 1 John 4:4 that greater is He that is in believers than he that is in the world.
The bodies of believers are the temples of the Holy Spirit who dwells within them (1 Corinthians 6:19). John encourages those in whom God lives: “You are from God” (1 John 4:4, ESV). They are not of the world. John reassures them that they have “overcome” those who teach false doctrine and who can rightly be called “antichrists.”
John uses the concept of “overcoming” five other times in 1 John: believers have overcome the evil one (1 John 2:13, 14) and have overcome the world (three times in 1 John 5:4–5). The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead now indwells believers in Christ (Romans 8:11). The Holy Spirit is far stronger than Satan or any of his minions, the Spirit’s wisdom is greater than any of Satan’s schemes, and the Spirit’s protection is more than enough to thwart any of Satan’s attacks. Because he who is in us is greater than he who is in the world, we have confidence in God and at the same time put no confidence in the flesh. The power is not ours but the Holy Spirit’s.
By these encouragements believers can have peace and rejoice because Jesus has “overcome the world” (John 16:33). Believers need not fear Satan; rather, they trust in the Lord and obey Him. By the living Spirit of God within them, believers can overcome the lies and temptations of the powers of darkness. Those who are of God can boldly say, “Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.”
In sy brief aan sy “liewe kinders” in die Here, sê die apostel Johannes vir hulle dat “die een wat in julle is, groter is as die een wat in die wêreld is” (1 Johannes 4:4). Die kontras hier is tussen die Gees van Christus en die gees van die antichris; kortom, God is groter as Satan.
1 Johannes 4 begin met ‘n vermaning vir gelowiges om die geeste van profete of leraars te toets: “Geliefdes, glo nie elke gees nie, maar toets die geeste of hulle uit God is, want baie valse profete het in die wêreld uitgegaan” (1 Johannes 4:1). Wat ‘n profeet of leraar verkondig, openbaar of hy uit God of ‘n valse profeet van die wêreld is. Johannes vertel ons hoe om ‘n valse profeet te herken: “Elke gees wat Jesus nie bely nie, is nie uit God nie. Dit is die gees van die antichris” (vers 3). Enigiemand wat valsheid oor Jesus leer of verkondig, soos om Sy goddelikheid te ontken, is ‘n valse profeet. Hierdie valse profete spreek eintlik in die gees van die antichris namens “die een wat in die wêreld is”, Satan.
Die woord antichris beteken “teen Christus”. Satan is die uiteindelike gees teen Christus. Hy is die vader van die leuens en is teen die waarheid (Johannes 8:44). Hy word “die heerser van hierdie wêreld” genoem (Johannes 12:31; 14:30; 16:11) en “die god van hierdie wêreld” (2 Korintiërs 4:4). Hy is “die gees wat nou aan die werk is in die ongehoorsames” (Efesiërs 2:2). Satan gebruik valse profete om mense van Christus weg te lei deur hulle te mislei met ‘n valse siening van Jesus. Om te verdraai wie Jesus is, verdraai die evangelie. Dit hou mense in die slawerny van sonde en in duisternis. Tog is Satan nie so magtig soos God nie, en Johannes herinner die gelowiges in 1 Johannes 4:4 daaraan dat Hy wat in die gelowiges is, groter is as hy wat in die wêreld is.
Die liggame van gelowiges is die tempels van die Heilige Gees wat in hulle woon (1 Korintiërs 6:19). Johannes bemoedig diegene in wie God woon: “Julle is uit God” (1 Johannes 4:4). Hulle is nie van die wêreld nie. Johannes verseker hulle dat hulle diegene “oorwin” het wat valse leerstellings verkondig en wat tereg “antichriste” genoem kan word.
Johannes gebruik die konsep van “oorwinning” vyf ander keer in 1 Johannes: gelowiges het die bose een oorwin (1 Johannes 2:13, 14) en het die wêreld oorwin (drie keer in 1 Johannes 5:4–5). Dieselfde Gees wat Jesus uit die dood opgewek het, woon nou in gelowiges in Christus (Romeine 8:11). Die Heilige Gees is baie sterker as Satan of enige van sy dienaars, die Gees se wysheid is groter as enige van Satan se planne, en die Gees se beskerming is meer as genoeg om enige van Satan se aanvalle te stuit. Omdat hy wat in ons is, groter is as hy wat in die wêreld is, het ons vertroue in God en terselfdertyd stel ons geen vertroue in die vlees nie. Die krag is nie ons s’n nie, maar die Heilige Gees s’n.
Deur hierdie aanmoedigings kan gelowiges vrede hê en bly wees omdat Jesus “die wêreld oorwin het” (Johannes 16:33). Gelowiges hoef nie vir Satan te vrees nie; eerder vertrou hulle op die Here en gehoorsaam Hom. Deur die lewende Gees van God binne hulle, kan gelowiges die leuens en versoekings van die magte van die duisternis oorkom. Diegene wat van God is, kan met vrymoedigheid sê: “Groter is Hy wat in my is as hy wat in die wêreld is.”

Bible Teaching of the Day
In John 14:12, Jesus makes an amazing statement: “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father” (emphasis added). Jesus performed many amazing and wonderful works—raising the dead, walking on water, and feeding thousands come to mind—how can it be true that those who have faith in Him will perform “even greater” works than those?
In saying that those who believe in Him would do the works that He did, Jesus was not saying that every Christian would walk on water and raise the dead. The apostles in the book of Acts performed some miracles that were similar to Jesus’ works, but even they did not walk on water or feed multitudes, as far as we know. The Holy Spirit gives different gifts to different people as He sees fit (1 Corinthians 12:4). Not everyone has the same set of gifts. Some believers have more public gifts, and others have quieter, more private gifts.
Jesus said that not only would His followers do the same works, but they would do “greater” works than He. Again, this is not a reference to the works’ being greater in power. Jesus had raised Lazarus, who had been four days in the tomb (John 11); humanly speaking, not even the apostles did a greater work than that. No one has ever exceeded the power or majesty of Jesus’ miracles.
So, what did Jesus mean that His faithful followers would do “greater” works than He? Without a doubt, the works of Jesus’ followers would be greater in extent. Jesus’ earthly ministry had been largely limited to Galilee and Judea; His disciples, however, were going to extend His ministry to the uttermost parts of the earth. When Jesus ascended to heaven, His followers numbered in the hundreds; forty days later, in response to the preaching of the apostles, that number leaped into the thousands (Acts 2:41). By the end of Acts, the gospel had made its way to Rome.
Jesus links the works of His followers with the fact of His return to heaven. In fact, He says His absence is the cause of their greater works: “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father” (John 14:12, emphasis added). Jesus later told His disciples that the gift of the Holy Spirit depended on Jesus’ return to heaven (John 16:7). It was through the Spirit that the church is enabled to do the work of God.
Jesus also links the greater works His followers will do to the promise of answered prayer. His very next words: “And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it” (John 14:13–14).
The words of Jesus in John 14 were of great comfort to His eleven disciples. He was about to be arrested and suffer a cruel and unjust death. The disciples themselves would be scattered that night. But Jesus assures them that, no matter what happens, God’s work will continue in the world. Even after Jesus’ earthly ministry ended, His work would go on. The followers of Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit, would continue to help and heal people. The gospel would have a worldwide impact. As God’s people pray in Jesus’ name, answers would come, and the greatest miracle of all—the spiritual transformation of a sinful heart through faith in Christ—would become commonplace, to the glory of God.
Bybel Lering vir die Dag
In Johannes 14:12 maak Jesus ‘n verstommende stelling: “Voorwaar, voorwaar Ek sê vir julle, wie in My glo, sal die werke doen wat Ek doen, en hulle sal nog groter dinge doen as dit, omdat Ek na die Vader gaan” (klem bygevoeg). Jesus het baie verstommende en wonderlike werke verrig – die opwekking van die dooies, die loop op water en die voed van duisende kom by my op – hoe kan dit waar wees dat diegene wat in Hom glo, “nog groter” werke as dit sal verrig?
Deur te sê dat diegene wat in Hom glo die werke sou doen wat Hy gedoen het, het Jesus nie gesê dat elke Christen op water sou loop en die dooies sou opwek nie. Die apostels in die boek Handelinge het wonderwerke verrig wat soortgelyk was aan Jesus se werke, maar selfs hulle het nie op water geloop of menigtes gevoed nie, sover ons weet. Die Heilige Gees gee verskillende gawes aan verskillende mense soos Hy goeddink (1 Korintiërs 12:4). Nie almal het dieselfde stel gawes nie. Sommige gelowiges het meer openbare gawes, en ander het stiller, meer private gawes.
Jesus het gesê dat Sy volgelinge nie net dieselfde werke sou doen nie, maar dat hulle “groter” werke as Hy sou doen. Weereens, dit is nie ‘n verwysing na die werke wat groter in krag is nie. Jesus het Lasarus opgewek, wat vier dae in die graf was (Johannes 11); menslik gesproke het nie eens die apostels ‘n groter werk as dit gedoen nie. Niemand het ooit die krag of majesteit van Jesus se wonderwerke oortref nie.
So, wat het Jesus bedoel dat Sy getroue volgelinge “groter” werke as Hy sou doen? Sonder twyfel sou die werke van Jesus se volgelinge groter in omvang wees. Jesus se aardse bediening was grootliks beperk tot Galilea en Judea; Sy dissipels sou egter Sy bediening tot die uithoeke van die aarde uitbrei. Toe Jesus na die hemel opgevaar het, het Sy volgelinge in die honderde getel; veertig dae later, in reaksie op die prediking van die apostels, het daardie getal in die duisende gestyg (Handelinge 2:41). Teen die einde van Handelinge het die evangelie sy pad na Rome gevind.
Jesus verbind die werke van Sy volgelinge met die feit van Sy terugkeer na die hemel. Trouens, Hy sê Sy afwesigheid is die oorsaak van hulle groter werke: “Wie in My glo, sal die werke doen wat Ek doen, en hulle sal nog groter dinge doen as dit, omdat Ek na die Vader gaan” (Johannes 14:12, klem bygevoeg). Jesus het later vir Sy dissipels gesê dat die gawe van die Heilige Gees afhang van Jesus se terugkeer na die hemel (Johannes 16:7). Dit was deur die Gees dat die kerk in staat gestel word om die werk van God te doen.
Jesus verbind ook die groter werke wat Sy volgelinge sal doen met die belofte van verhoorde gebed. Sy volgende woorde: “En wat julle ook al in my Naam vra, sal Ek doen, sodat die Vader in die Seun verheerlik kan word. Enigiets wat julle My in my Naam vra, sal Ek doen” (Johannes 14:13–14).
Die woorde van Jesus in Johannes 14 was van groot vertroosting vir Sy elf dissipels. Hy was op die punt om gearresteer te word en ‘n wrede en onregverdige dood te ly. Die dissipels self sou daardie nag verstrooi word. Maar Jesus verseker hulle dat, ongeag wat gebeur, God se werk in die wêreld sal voortduur. Selfs nadat Jesus se aardse bediening geëindig het, sou Sy werk voortgaan. Die volgelinge van Christus, bemagtig deur die Heilige Gees, sou voortgaan om mense te help en te genees. Die evangelie sou ‘n wêreldwye impak hê. Soos God se mense in Jesus se naam bid, sou antwoorde kom, en die grootste wonderwerk van alles – die geestelike transformasie van ‘n sondige hart deur geloof in Christus – sou alledaags word, tot eer van God.
Today’s Devotional
As Jesus prepared to depart this world, He knew that difficult days lay ahead for His disciples. He wanted them to be ready for the most challenging times they would ever face. Jesus explained how they could endure through the troubles of this life: “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world” (John 16:33, NLT).
Amid the storms of life in a dark and fallen world, inner peace is only possible through a relationship with Jesus Christ. The disciples could not depend on themselves to survive the trials and persecution they would soon endure. Instead, they would have to rely entirely on Jesus and everything He had taught them while living and ministering with them.
Fearing for their lives, the disciples would abandon Jesus at the cross (Matthew 26:56). They would be scattered (Mark 14:50; Acts 8:1), arrested (Acts 5:17–21), thrown out of synagogues (John 16:2; Acts 13:14–52), and martyred for their faith in Jesus (Acts 7:54–8:3), but they would not go astray because they would remember the Lord’s words: “Take courage! I have overcome the world” (NASB).
The Greek word translated “overcome” means “to defeat, to win a victory over, as in a contest or military conflict.” The “world” is the created physical realm, the domain of existence here on earth, which is considered distinct from the heavenly or spiritual realm. Jesus knows that here on earth we encounter trouble and sorrow. But He has overcome the world and every earthly obstacle for us.
What has Jesus overcome for us in the world?
Anxieties and cares: Christ’s victory over the world is multifaceted. First, He gives His followers peace to overcome their troubled hearts: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). Those who believe in Jesus Christ don’t have to live with anxious hearts but can experience the gift of His otherworldly peace (John 14:1). We do this by bringing every situation to Him in prayer, depending wholly on Him to meet our needs (Philippians 4:6). The Lord’s peace transcends all the confusion, fear, and anxiety of this world like a shield set over our minds and hearts as we live secure in Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:7).
Hatred and persecution: It’s important to remember that Christ’s victory over the world does not physically remove us from the battle. We will face the same hatred Jesus did: “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:18–20). We overcome the world because we belong to God. His Spirit lives in us and “is greater than the one who is in the world” (1 John 4:4).
Paul asked the Romans, “Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death?” (Romans 8:35, NLT). He answers his own question with a resounding, “No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us” (Romans 8:37, NLT).
Sin and temptation: Temptation to sin will always be a part of our lives in this world, but Christ gives us victory over sin. Before salvation, the Bible says we lived like we were dead in disobedience and sin “just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God” (Ephesians 2:1–2, NLT). We used to follow only the passions and inclinations of our sinful nature (Ephesians 2:3). “But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. . . . For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:4–6, NLT).
Spiritual forces: Jesus not only paid the penalty for our sin, but He also won a pivotal victory over Satan and all the supernatural powers of evil who are aligned with him (Colossians 2:15; Hebrews 2:14). The devil has been defeated through Jesus Christ. As believers, we appropriate Christ’s victory when we put on the whole armor of God (Ephesians 6:10–18).
Sorrow and death: Death is an inevitable reality for all people, but for believers in Jesus Christ, death means victory over our last enemy (1 Corinthians 15:26–27). Through His atoning sacrifice on the cross and subsequent resurrection, Jesus overcame the world by conquering death. He shares that victory with all who repent and believe in Him as Lord and Savior: “For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God” (1 John 5:4–5, NLT). Christ’s death grants salvation and eternal life to all who believe in Him.
Jesus told Martha after the death of her brother Lazarus, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me, even if he dies, will live. Everyone who lives and believes in me will never die” (John 11:25–26, CSB).
Christ grants that we overcome the world in Him, and He gives us the right to sit with Him on His heavenly throne at the right hand of God the Father (Revelation 3:21; Hebrews 10:12; Romans 8:34). There, in our eternal home in God’s kingdom, we will live forever in the Lord’s presence: “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever” (Revelation 21:3–4, NLT).
Vandag se Bemoediging
Terwyl Jesus voorberei het om hierdie wêreld te verlaat, het Hy geweet dat moeilike dae vir Sy dissipels voorlê. Hy wou hê dat hulle gereed moes wees vir die mees uitdagende tye wat hulle ooit sou teëkom. Jesus het verduidelik hoe hulle deur die probleme van hierdie lewe kon volhard: “Ek het dit alles vir julle gesê, sodat julle vrede in My kan hê. Hier op aarde sal julle baie beproewinge en smarte hê. Maar hou moed, want Ek het die wêreld oorwin” (Johannes 16:33).
Te midde van die storms van die lewe in ‘n donker en gevalle wêreld, is innerlike vrede slegs moontlik deur ‘n verhouding met Jesus Christus. Die dissipels kon nie op hulself staatmaak om die beproewinge en vervolging wat hulle binnekort sou verduur, te oorleef nie. In plaas daarvan sou hulle geheel en al op Jesus en alles wat Hy hulle geleer het terwyl Hy saam met hulle geleef en bedien het, moes staatmaak.
Uit vrees vir hul lewens sou die dissipels Jesus by die kruis verlaat (Matteus 26:56). Hulle sou verstrooi word (Markus 14:50; Handelinge 8:1), gearresteer word (Handelinge 5:17–21), uit sinagoges gegooi word (Johannes 16:2; Handelinge 13:14–52), en gemartel word vir hulle geloof in Jesus (Handelinge 7:54–8:3), maar hulle sou nie dwaal nie, want hulle sou die Here se woorde onthou: “Skep moed! Ek het die wêreld oorwin” (NASB).
Die Griekse woord wat as “oorwin” vertaal word, beteken “om te verslaan, om ’n oorwinning te behaal, soos in ’n wedstryd of militêre konflik.” Die “wêreld” is die geskape fisiese ryk, die domein van bestaan hier op aarde, wat as onderskeibaar van die hemelse of geestelike ryk beskou word. Jesus weet dat ons hier op aarde probleme en hartseer teëkom. Maar Hy het die wêreld en elke aardse hindernis vir ons oorwin.
Wat het Jesus vir ons in die wêreld oorwin?
Angs en sorge: Christus se oorwinning oor die wêreld is veelsydig. Eerstens gee Hy Sy volgelinge vrede om hulle onrustige harte te oorkom: “Vrede laat Ek vir julle na; my vrede gee Ek julle. Dit gee Ek nie soos die wêreld gee nie. Moenie dat julle hart ontsteld word nie en wees nie bang nie” (Johannes 14:27). Diegene wat in Jesus Christus glo, hoef nie met angstige harte te leef nie, maar kan die gawe van Sy bonatuurlike vrede ervaar (Johannes 14:1). Ons doen dit deur elke situasie in gebed na Hom te bring, en geheel en al op Hom staat te maak om in ons behoeftes te voorsien (Filippense 4:6). Die Here se vrede oortref al die verwarring, vrees en angs van hierdie wêreld soos ‘n skild wat oor ons gedagtes en harte geplaas is terwyl ons veilig in Jesus Christus leef (Filippense 4:7).
Haat en vervolging: Dit is belangrik om te onthou dat Christus se oorwinning oor die wêreld ons nie fisies uit die stryd verwyder nie. Ons sal dieselfde haat in die gesig staar as wat Jesus gehad het: “As die wêreld julle haat, onthou dat hy My eerste gehaat het. As julle aan die wêreld behoort het, sou hy julle liefhê soos sy eie. Julle behoort nou nie aan die wêreld nie, maar Ek het julle uit die wêreld gekies. Daarom haat die wêreld julle. Onthou wat Ek vir julle gesê het: ’n Dienskneg is nie groter as sy heer nie. As hulle My vervolg het, sal hulle julle ook vervolg” (Johannes 15:18–20). Ons oorwin die wêreld omdat ons aan God behoort. Sy Gees woon in ons en “is groter as die een wat in die wêreld is” (1 Johannes 4:4).
Paulus het die Romeine gevra: “Kan enigiets ons ooit van Christus se liefde skei? Beteken dit dat Hy ons nie meer liefhet as ons in moeilikheid of rampspoed verkeer, vervolg word, honger ly, gebrek ly, in gevaar verkeer of met die dood bedreig word nie?” (Romeine 8:35). Hy beantwoord sy eie vraag met ‘n klinkende, “Nee, ten spyte van al hierdie dinge, is die oorweldigende oorwinning ons s’n deur Christus, wat ons liefgehad het” (Romeine 8:37, NLT).
Sonde en versoeking: Versoeking om te sondig sal altyd deel wees van ons lewens in hierdie wêreld, maar Christus gee ons die oorwinning oor sonde. Voor verlossing sê die Bybel dat ons geleef het asof ons dood was in ongehoorsaamheid en sonde “net soos die res van die wêreld, gehoorsaam aan die duiwel – die owerste van die magte in die onsigbare wêreld. Hy is die gees wat werk in die harte van die wat weier om God te gehoorsaam” (Efesiërs 2:1–2, NLT). Ons het vroeër net die hartstogte en neigings van ons sondige natuur gevolg (Efesiërs 2:3). “Maar God is ryk in barmhartigheid en so liefgehad dat Hy ons, al was ons dood as gevolg van ons sondes, lewend gemaak het toe Hy Christus uit die dood opgewek het… Want Hy het ons saam met Christus uit die dood opgewek en ons saam in die hemel laat sit, omdat ons in Christus Jesus is” (Efesiërs 2:4–6).
Geestelike kragte: Jesus het nie net die straf vir ons sonde betaal nie, maar Hy het ook ‘n deurslaggewende oorwinning behaal oor Satan en al die bonatuurlike magte van die bose wat met Hom saamwerk (Kolossense 2:15; Hebreërs 2:14). Die duiwel is deur Jesus Christus verslaan. As gelowiges eien ons Christus se oorwinning toe wanneer ons die volle wapenrusting van God aantrek (Efesiërs 6:10–18).
Hartseer en dood: Die dood is ‘n onvermydelike werklikheid vir alle mense, maar vir gelowiges in Jesus Christus beteken die dood oorwinning oor ons laaste vyand (1 Korintiërs 15:26–27). Deur Sy soenoffer aan die kruis en daaropvolgende opstanding het Jesus die wêreld oorwin deur die dood te oorwin. Hy deel daardie oorwinning met almal wat hulle bekeer en in Hom as Here en Verlosser glo: “Want elke kind van God oorwin hierdie bose wêreld, en ons behaal hierdie oorwinning deur ons geloof. En wie kan hierdie stryd teen die wêreld wen? Slegs die wat glo dat Jesus die Seun van God is” (1 Johannes 5:4–5). Christus se dood gee verlossing en die ewige lewe aan almal wat in Hom glo.
Jesus het vir Marta gesê na die dood van haar broer Lasarus: “Ek is die opstanding en die lewe. Wie in My glo, sal lewe, al sterwe hy ook. Elkeen wat leef en in My glo, sal nooit sterwe nie” (Johannes 11:25–26).
Christus gee dat ons die wêreld in Hom oorwin, en Hy gee ons die reg om saam met Hom op sy hemelse troon te sit aan die regterhand van God die Vader (Openbaring 3:21; Hebreërs 10:12; Romeine 8:34). Daar, in ons ewige tuiste in God se koninkryk, sal ons vir ewig in die Here se teenwoordigheid lewe: “Kyk, God se woning is nou onder sy mense; Hy sal by hulle woon, en hulle sal sy volk wees; en God self sal by hulle wees; en Hy sal elke traan van hulle oë afvee, en daar sal geen dood of droefheid of geween of pyn meer wees nie; al hierdie dinge is vir ewig verby” (Openbaring 21:3–4, NLT).

Goedhartigheid Kan Nie Wag Nie:
Jy ken daardie bedagsame woorde wat jy graag wil sê vir iemand wat besonders gaaf was ? Of daardie bemoedigende boodskap wat jy beplan om te skryf aan ‘n vriend wat ‘n bietjie af voel ? Jy wil dalk nou daardie dade van goedhartigheid doen, want jy weet nooit wanneer dit te laat kan wees nie.
Terwyl ons daaraan dink om op te tree op ons vriendelike voornemens, kan ons leer by ‘n sakeman wat sy werknemers net betyds aangemoedig het.
Alhoewel hierdie man gewoonlik nie sy werkers se salaristjeks geteken het nie, het hy dit eendag gedoen. Die gereelde handtekeninge was uit die kantoor, so hy het die taak oorgeneem. Toe hy die tjeks geteken het, het die man die ekstra moeite gedoen om ‘n nota aan elke tjek te heg, waarin hy sy werknemers bedank het vir hul diens. Die volgende dag is hy onverwags oorlede, maar nie voordat hy persoonlik ‘n laaste woord van dank in daardie notas aan almal op sy personeel gegee het nie.
Een van die beste bewyse van ons geloof in Christus is ons goedhartigheid teenoor ander (Johannes 13:35); (Romeine 12:10). Neem vandag die tyd om ‘n boodskap van bewondering te skryf of om ‘n spesiale guns te bewys vir iemand wat jy liefhet. Moenie wag totdat dit te laat is om vriendelik te wees nie.
Laat ons God se ware dissipels wees,
Na ander se nood omsien,
Klippaadjies gladder maak
Deur ‘n sagte woord of daad.
Dis nooit te vroeg om vriendelik te wees nie, maar dit kan te laat wees.
Kindness Can’t Wait:
You know those thoughtful words you’ve been meaning to say to someone who’s been especially nice to you? Or that encouraging note you’ve been planning to write to a friend who’s feeling a little down? You might want to do those acts of kindness now, because you never know when it might be too late.
As we think about acting on our kind intentions, we can learn from a businessman who gave his employees a little encouragement just in time.
Although this man didn’t usually sign his workers’ paychecks, he did one day. The regular signatures were out of the office, so he took over the task. When he signed the checks, the man took the extra step of attaching a note to each check, thanking his employees for their service. The next day, he passed away unexpectedly, but not before personally giving a final word of thanks in those notes to everyone on his staff.
One of the best evidences of our faith in Christ is our kindness to others (John 13:35); (Romans 12:10). Take the time today to write a note of admiration or to do a special favor for someone you love. Don’t wait until it’s too late to be kind.
Let us be God’s true disciples,
Caring for the needs of others,
Smoothing rocky paths
By a gentle word or deed.
It’s never too early to be kind, but it can be too late.

Bible Prophecy in the News
Digital Health Advancements Creating Trojan Horse To Digital ID?
Though the Digital Health Ecosystem has the intention of streamlining health care, it could shape up to be a globally harmonized tracking mechanism that plays right into the U.N. and WEF’s plan. It could eventually mandate a digital ID to buy, sell, travel, pay taxes, or participate in the national or global public square. In the wrong hands, it’s the book of Revelation in real time.
In less than a year, the Trump administration has made great strides to untether the United States from globalist chains (such as withdrawing from the World Health Organization) and return to upholding foundational constitutional freedoms. But now, a Big Tech-backed, Trump-approved digital personal health tracking system has appeared on the national landscape with a “Patient-Centric Healthcare Ecosystem” announced at a recent White House event hosted with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Though this public-private initiative promises to “kill the clipboard” and streamline health care services for Americans, it threatens Americans’ privacy and is a step closer to a dystopian centralized tracking system. While the proposed health tracking system plan to be rolled out in the first quarter of 2026 will be optional, it implements a digital prototype that could certainly be expanded or made mandatory in the future.
This government-initiated Digital Health Ecosystem will work with Amazon, Anthropic, Apple, Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, Oracle, and others, including World Economic Forum (WEF) partners who are working with global elites to build sugar-coated, white-labeled Chinese credit system-esque frameworks worldwide.
A Network of Global Giants
For better or worse, the geopolitical, business, economic, and social landscapes are being transformed by a brilliantly marketed global plan labeled “multilateralism.” On the surface, multilateralism promotes global cooperation, convenience, and connectivity, especially when global emergencies arise.
A closer look reveals a network of global giants — the United Nations, World Economic Forum, World Bank Group, Fortune 500 companies, “shadow industries” (lesser-known businesses or enterprises implementing the same agenda), technocrats, and various government leaders — collaborating to create a global infrastructure and digital framework.
This sets the foundation for a global surveillance state that would allow globalist elites to force a tyrannical “digital gulag” upon the world.
Could the seemingly benign, supposedly HIPAA-compliant Digital Health Ecosystem be one of the wolves in sheep’s clothing inching the world closer to implementing a track-and-trace global surveillance state?
A National Forerunner of a Global Blueprint
As the Trump administration navigates this global technology revolution and seeks to empower Americans, the dangerous elements of this “new world” must be resisted, and strategies must be enacted to shield humanity from future despots.
Though the Digital Health Ecosystem has the intention of streamlining health care and riding the wave of the “Fourth Industrial Revolution,” it could shape up to be a globally harmonized health grid and tracking mechanism that plays right into the U.N. and WEF’s plan. The Digital Health Ecosystem could eventually mandate a digital ID to buy, sell, travel, pay taxes, or participate in the national or global public square. In the wrong hands, it’s the book of Revelation in real time.
In a New American article, writer Veronika Kyrylenko expressed concerns about this “sweeping new vision for American healthcare” and connected the global dots for the American people. She wrote:
“Though branded as a domestic initiative integral to the mission of Making America Healthy Again (MAHA), the U.S. Digital Health Ecosystem mirrors plans already circulating on the world stage.
“The UN’s Global Strategy on Digital Health (2020-2025) promotes universal digital IDs, biometric records, and interoperable networks as the foundation of resilient healthcare. It ties this architecture to the Sustainable Development Goals and World Health Organization objectives.
“The World Economic Forum’s Digital Healthcare Transformation framework similarly promotes AI diagnostics, centralized data exchanges, and cross-border sharing of health records — managed by public-private consortia.”
When Spreading The Gospel Becomes A Crime – How Do We Respond?
The Christian worldview begins with the truth that all people-whether in London, São Paulo, or the remotest jungle-are created in the image of God, but separated from Him by sin. Secularism views every culture as morally neutral, equally valid, and untouchable. In their eyes, it is “imposing” Western religion to share the gospel with different people groups.
“It’s a familiar pattern,” wrote Ruby Conway in The Times. “I download the dating apps again; I swipe half-heartedly, I trepidatiously go on a date. It’s a process detached from real desire, my hand guided by that of external pressure.” No, Conway is not simply expressing her vexations with the modern dating landscape. She’s addressing hook-up culture and how she, and apparently a notable percentage of Generation Z, are leaving it behind.
As great as this sounds at the onset, in reality, it’s not necessarily worth celebration. Mostly — if not entirely — because the reasons for this withdrawal from hook-up culture are far less about swapping a bad lifestyle for a good one. Rather, as Conway herself conveys, it’s about “dating app fatigue,” societal pressures, and lousy men leading to exhaustion and disillusionment.
Signs of the Times
When Spreading The Gospel Becomes A Crime – How Do We Respond?
The Christian worldview begins with the truth that all people-whether in London, São Paulo, or the remotest jungle-are created in the image of God, but separated from Him by sin. Secularism views every culture as morally neutral, equally valid, and untouchable. In their eyes, it is “imposing” Western religion to share the gospel with different people groups.
The Guardian recently published a sensationally worded article with the headline, “Missionaries using secret audio devices to evangelize Brazil’s isolated peoples.” The subtitle sounded equally ominous: “Solar-powered units reciting biblical passages have appeared in the Javari valley, despite strict laws protecting Indigenous groups.”
One would think, from the tone, that the world’s last untouched civilization had been subjected to some dangerous biochemical weapon. In reality, these “secret devices” are nothing more than small, solar-powered radios loaded with Bible passages and gospel presentations–tools that have been used for decades by missionaries to reach those in remote corners of the globe.
Christian ministries often distribute such devices in places where entering physically is difficult or even impossible. They can contain audio Scriptures in local or trade languages, allowing someone who has never seen a Bible or met a Christian to hear about Jesus for the very first time. Yet to those with a secular–and, frankly, anti-God–worldview, even the idea of an Indigenous person hearing the gospel is a threat.
The Guardian quotes Brazilian officials calling these efforts “stealthy” and “under the radar.” The nation’s policy, in place since 1987, forbids evangelism among certain tribes unless the Indigenous group initiates contact. In other words, the Brazilian government has granted itself the authority to decide whether a soul gets the chance to hear about Christ. And some officials even boast that the new “sophisticated” methods are “almost impossible to combat.”
From a purely biblical standpoint, this is nothing new. Governments and rulers have been trying to silence the gospel for 2,000 years. In Acts 4, the apostles Peter and John were arrested for preaching about the resurrection of Jesus. The religious leaders commanded them to stop. Their reply was simple and unflinching: “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge, for we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard.”
This is the heartbeat of Christian mission work. We are called to obey authorities–but only so long as those authorities do not demand we disobey God. And Christ’s command is crystal clear: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” (Matthew 28:19). The command does not exclude dangerous regions, hostile governments, or tribes “known for their deadly expertise with war clubs.” It includes them.
Here lies the worldview divide. Secularism views every culture as morally neutral, equally valid, and untouchable. In their eyes, it is “imposing” Western religion to share the gospel with a people group, even if that group remains in spiritual darkness, bound by fear of evil spirits, tribal warfare, or generational cycles of violence. Better, they say, to leave them alone–forever.
The Christian worldview begins with the truth that all people–whether in London, São Paulo, or the remotest jungle–are created in the image of God, but separated from Him by sin. That separation carries eternal consequences. If we truly believe that Christ is “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6), then it would be the height of cruelty not to share the good news.
This is not cultural imperialism. It is not Westernization. It is love–love enough to take risks, to endure government opposition, and to face possible death to tell someone about the Savior who died for them. When Paul wrote that “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15), he did not add, “except for the ones behind government borders.”
The Guardian’s article frames this missionary work as covert, almost sinister. But Christians understand it as obedience. Solar-powered Scripture players are not weapons–they are lifelines. They bring hope into places where there is no hospital, no school, and no written word. They speak of a God who entered human history to rescue us, even at the cost of His own life.
History shows us that the gospel is unstoppable. From the underground church in China to the house churches of Iran, believers have found ways to proclaim Christ despite every effort to silence them. If missionaries are now using discreet technology to reach the unreached in Brazil, they are simply carrying on the same mission the apostles began two millennia ago.
And so the choice remains for every Christian: will we let earthly powers determine who can hear the gospel? Or will we stand with Peter and John and say, “We cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard”?
No government decree, no hostile policy, and no physical isolation can erase the reality that Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords. The Great Commission is not a suggestion–it is a command. And until every tribe and tongue has heard, faithful believers will find a way to speak His name… whether the world approves or not.

5 Seals Opened, 6th Seal Next!
5 Seals Opened, 6th Seal Next! By Pastor Dirk
The 1st Seal = The White Horse = Catholic Believe system = Opened
Rev 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
Rev 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
The 2nd Seal = The Red Horsemen = Communism and Socialism. = Opened
Rev 6:3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
Rev 6:4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
The 3rd Seal. The Black Horsemen = Capitalism = Opened
Rev 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
Rev 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
The 4th Seal = The Light Green Horsemen = The Islamic State. = Opened in 2011
Rev 6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
Rev 6:8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
The 5th Seal = Christian Tribulation. = Opened in 2012
Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Rev 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
Rev 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
The 6th Seal = The 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ , The Rapture and the Battle of Armageddon.
Rev 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
Rev 6:13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
Rev 6:14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
Rev 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
Rev 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Rev 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
Jesus says this in His own Words!
Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, andthe moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
Mat 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
1Thess 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
1Thess 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
(Immediately After) = The Great Tribulation.
Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Jesus gives 4 Clues.
1. the sun be darkened
2. the moon shall not give her light
3. the stars shall fall from heaven
4. the powers of the heavens shall be shaken
We have one Sun, one Moon and Starry heavens.
This means the Sun will not shine anymore!
The Moon will not reflect the sunlight anymore!
There will be no stars in the sky , it will appear like all stars has fallen from the sky, the reason , no sunlight will reflect from it anymore for us to see the stars.
Were in the Bible do we read of an event were the Sun will be Darkened and the Moon not signing anymore?
Revelations 16. The Wrath of God. (After the Mark of the Beast was implemented)
Rev 16:7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.
Rev 16:8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
Rev 16:9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
Rev 16:10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,
Remember the Opening Verse!
2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
Let’s Continue with the Wrath of God in Rev 16.
Rev 16:15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Rev 16:16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
Rev 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
Rev 16:18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
Rev 16:19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
Rev 16:20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
Rev 16:21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
SO WHAT DID YOU JUST READ FROM THE BIBLE?
1. Jesus will come after the Great Tribulation.
2. Jesus will come after the Sun was darkened.
3. Jesus will come after The Moon does not reflect the sun anymore.
4. Jesus will come in Total Darkness.
5. After Jesus arrived the “Rapture” will take place.
6. After the “Rapture” there will be total destruction on Earth.
3000 Year old Prophecy of Zechariah comes to Life! By Pastor Dirk Flemix.
In the Old Testament the Prophet Zechariah recorded this Prophecy.
Off 4 Chariots and Horses traveling from one direction to another. This the Angel explained to be evil spirits that report to the lord of the World being satan.
We read of Chariot with Red Horses, a Chariot with Black Horses , a 3rd Chariot with White Horses and a 4th Chariot with Grisled and Bay Horses being Light Green Pale Horses.
Zec 6:1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3 And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.
4 Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
We read of the same color Horses in the New Testament in the Book of Revelations by John. In revelations there are no Chariots or multiple Horse, But a Single Horse with a Rider. And the Rider is explained in detail.
What is interesting is that in both the new and old Testament this is recorded in the same Chapter and the same verses.
Zec 6 v 1-8 and Rev 6 v 1-8
Rev 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
This also the 1st 4 Seals opened according to John.
This 4 Horses with their Horsemen describes a spirit of believe system controlled by satan.
The 1st Horse in Revelations. The White Horse
And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
This was the Catholic Believe system that started around 70 AC and at the head of this believe system the Pope.
The 2nd Horse in Revelations. The Red Horse
And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
This was Communism and Socialism that started around the 1800 AC. Countries like Red Russia, Red China and Red Romania.
The 3rd Horse in Revelations. The Black Horse.
And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
This was Capitalism and Free Trade that Started around the 1900 AC.
The 4TH Horse in Revelations. The Pale (Light Green) Horse.
and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
This is Islamism or ISIS that was born in 2011.
What is interesting is the Directions these Horses went in the Book of Zechariah.
Zec 6:6 The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country.
Zec 6:7 And the red went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
Zec 6:8 Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
The Black Horse being Capitalism went into the North Countries. Being the North America’s and Europe. And the White Horse being Catholic Believe system went after them. This is where the Illuminati were born.
Note that the Grisled Pale Light Green Horses went into the South, Being ISIS in the Middle East. And the Red Horses moved with the Light Green Horses but went to and fro through the Earth and at the end they both walked to and fro on the Earth. The Grisled Light Green Horse = Islamism or ISIS Currently and The Red Horse being Communism leaders Russia and China.
We are currently seeing that Communism and Islamism are riding together, The Alliance between Red Russia and Islam’s Iran and Turkey. Russia inviting these two Islam Countries into the BRICS Country alliance.
BRICS Being, Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. And now the 2 newest member countries Iran and Turkey.
The Red Horse Riding with the Light Green Horse to and fro over the Earth.
We are currently seeing to World forces competing.
The Black and White Horse Alliance. The NATO , EU World Order.
And
The Red and Light Green Horse Alliance. The BRICS Alliance, the New World Order.
In Zechariah 6 v 8. it speaks of an invasion.
Can this invasion be that the Red = Communism and Light Green = Islamism alliance want to invade the North Countries being North America and Europe = NATO EU and the Illuminati?
Or is it that The North Alliance are trying to silent the New World Order being the Red and Light Green Horses alliance = The BRICS Alliance.
Maybe the 5th Seal opened according to Revelations can shed more light to this Question.
Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
We see in these verses there was a Christian Tribulation explained.
Currently Christians is being killed with the Sword = beheaded in over 12 Islamic controlled Countries and the Islamic Invaders into Europe are now doing the same. 5 of the 7 Countries under the BRICS Alliance are not Christian Countries. The Only Countries claiming to be Majority Christian is Brazil and South Africa. Both Russia and China are from the Red Horse origin and Iran and Turkey from the Light Green Horse origin. With India with several believe systems but in majority Islam, then Hindu and then a list of other believe systems, with a minority of Christians.
And Russia placing a Ban on Evangelism in 2016.
NOTE: That the BRICS Country Alliance will be the Army that will invade Israel according to the Ezekiel 38 and 39 wars. The Gog = Russia and Magog = Iran War. This Alliance is mentioned with Turkey and more countries.
Your question now! Who will be the World Order at the End of Days during the 7 Year Peace agreements and the Great Tribulation?
This Gog and Magog army that will invade the North Countries and Israel.
Eze 39:1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
With most of the BRICS Army defeated by God Himself. The Old World Order. NATO, EU and the Illuminati will become the New World Order again and scream Peace, Safety and Security and arrange the 7 Year Peace Agreement.
