Prophecy Update #488 – Bow WOW!

“The end is near!” used to be a warning associated with religious fanatics holding cardboard signs. Today it has become a theme in popular culture. You see it in movies, on TV, in advertising. Rarely does a day go by that some newscaster doesn’t use the word apocalypse.”

Even the rapture – once an obscure biblical event – is mainstream.

It’s therefore a good time to see the signs of the times and be able to give an answer to folks about what is really going n, and going to occur.

500 end times Bible prophecies remain to be fulfilled. You’d therefore expect there to be news, and trends, that anticipate their fulfillment.

That’s why each week we present what we call a Prophecy Update. This is #488 in that series.

We’ve been teaching a series on the Days of Noah on Wednesday nights. I’d strongly encourage you to go to calvaryhanford.com, find those studies, and either watch, listen, or read them. About five of them are posted, and there will be two or three more. They are less than 25 minutes long; only a few pages of reading, if you choose the PDF.

They are pertinent to end times prophecy because Jesus pointed us back to the Days of Noah. He said,

Mat 24:37  But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Mat 24:38  For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
Mat 24:39  and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

We’ve discovered in those studies that Jesus was describing a particular type of “marrying” that was occurring before the Flood. Fallen angels were marrying and mating with human women.
Their offspring were the Nephilim – a superhuman race of giants whose DNA was corrupted.

It is this corruption of human DNA that Jesus seemed to be pointing to as something we could expect to characterize the end times.

Guess what? Corrupting human DNA is all the rage right now. One article I read was titled, China unveils gene technology to create SUPERHUMANS with hyper-muscular test-tube dogs.

Excerpts:

ARMIES of SUPER-SOLDIERS were a step closer to reality today after China announced it was genetically engineering hyper-muscular SUPER-DOGS.

The dogs, which are test tube bred in a lab, have twice the muscle mass of their natural counterparts and are considerably stronger and faster.

The canine genome has been especially difficult to engineer and replicate – but its close similarity to the human genome means it has long been the prize of geneticists.

Now the Chinese success has led to fears the same technology could be used to create weaponized super-humans – typified in Marvel Comics by Captain America and his foes. 

David King, director of Human Genetics Alert (HGA), voiced his fears over what is widely viewed as the first step on a slippery slope. 

He told express.co.uk: “It’s true that the more and more animals that are genetically engineered using these techniques brings us closer to the possibility of genetic engineering of humans.

There’s a revolutionary new gene editing technique, called CRISPR. nature.com said, “Researchers the world over are fast adopting CRISPR to tinker with the genomes of humans, viruses, bacteria, animals and plants.”

It has made possible what some scientists are calling the absolute power to control what it means to be human.

It’s like in the movies – but real. It’s as it was in the Days of Noah, except instead of fallen angels, it’s being done by fallen humans.

We are not looking for any particular sign, or prophecy to be fulfilled. Jesus promised He’d return to rapture His church – which entails the resurrection of the dead in Christ of the Church Age, then the translation from earth to Heaven of all living believers.

It is presented in the Bible as an imminent event.

The apostle Paul when he was teaching on the rapture, included himself in thinking it could happen any moment when he said, “we which are alive and remain.”

Are you ready for the rapture? If not, get ready, stay ready, and keep looking up. Ready or not, Jesus is coming!
