STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe that the Bible is the inspired
Word of God, that Jesus Christ is the Savior
of the world, and that He will come again
to establish a kingdom that shall never be
destroyed (Daniel 2:44). Those who are born
again (John 3:35) will have eternal life and
rule as kings and priests with Christ forever.
WHAT IS ENDTIME?
In 1968, Irvin Baxter Jr. discovered the United
States and other modern nations in the Bible.
He also found the Berlin Wall in the Bible
and that one day it was to be torn down,
re-uniting Germany, and that event would
be the catalyst to spark an international
movement called the New World Order.
These things have now come to pass. Irvin
Baxter Jr., a Pentecostal minister, began
Endtime Ministries in 1986 when he wrote A
Message For The President, a book explaining
the major prophecies of the Bible which
he had been teaching since 1968. After the
fall of the Berlin Wall, prophetic fulfllment
accelerated rapidly. The decision was made
to launch Endtime magazine. The purpose
of the magazine is to explain the prophecies
of the Bible and to show that they are now
being fulflled in intricate detail. Articles
focus on the soon return of Jesus Christ, the
truth of the Bible, and the need for salvation.
Endtime does not deal with doctrinal
controversies, as valid as they may be. This
will be left to other publications.
Endtime is published bi-monthly by Endtime, Inc., 449 Kingsbridge
Drive, Garland, TX 75040. Subscription price is

Editorial
Irvin Baxter - Editor-in-Chief
God-events
Tere are God-events that come along
only once in all of history. For instance,
there was only one food that destroyed the
entire world. If we say that a certain event
happened before the food, you know
exactly what we are referring to.
Tere was only one frst coming of Christ
to purchase redemption for the human
race. Consequently, all dates are either
indicated as BC (Before Christ) or AD
(Anno Dominiin the year of our Lord).
Are you ready for this?
Te world is now facing another of those
God-events. Im referring to the war
prophesied in the Bible that will begin in
Iraq and will kill one-third of the human
race. Tere is simply no event that compares
with this one in all of human existence. Not
even close!
Te most catastrophic war of all time,
until now, was World War II. Fify-two
million people died in this unprecedented
war. Now, multiply that carnage by FORTY!
Tats what lurks just ahead for the future of
the human race!
Tis edition of Endtime is devoted to
this apocalyptic event that lies just ahead.
Dont miss Two Billion To Die. Tere is
no doubt. It will be one of the God-events.
Middle East
President Bush and Condoleezza Rice
continue to attempt forcing a round peg into
a square hole. President Bush has announced
his intention to host an international peace
conference for the Middle East yet this year.
His goal is to resolve the confict that he
believes is the key to peace on earth. Te
next edition of Endtime magazine will deal
extensively with the future of the Middle
East in Bible prophecy.
Irving Kristol memorably observed,
Whom the gods would destroy they frst
tempt to resolve the Arab-Israeli confict.
Te Prophet Zachariah said it this way:
And in that day will I make Jerusalem
a burdensome stone for all people: all
that burden themselves with it shall be
cut in pieces, though all the people of the
earth be gathered together against it
(Zechariah 12:3).

Q: I was checking the Greek for the word
slay in Rev 9:15. What do you think about
the meaning, to deprive of spiritual life
and procure eternal misery in hell? Do
you think it is possible that the war will
spiritually kill one third of mankind?
- Tom
REPLY
| As you stated, the verb used in Rev. 9:15
is the Greek verb apokteino. This verb (as do
most words) has a range of meanings. Usually,
an author intends on using only one of those
meanings in any particular usage. Discovering
which meaning was originally intended is
generally best determined by the context.
The word apokteino appears 74 times in
the Greek New Testament. The word can refer
both to natural death, as well as to spiritual
death. We know this by Jesus use of the term
in Matthew 10:28. He says, Fear not them
which kill the body, but are not able to kill the
soul Both times where the KJV says kill, the
Greek verb apokteino is used. That said, of the
74 times it is used in the New Testament, most
of the time it refers to physical death. When
it does refer to spiritual death, the context
usually gives clear indicators that this is so (e.g.
kill the soul Matt 10:28).
So, does Revelation 9:15 refer to physical death
or spiritual death? As I mentioned above, the
context of the passage will be the best indicator
of what John was saying. Revelation 9:18 tells
us that the 1/3 of men were killed by the fre,
smoke, and brimstone which issued out of
the horses mouths. This seems to indicate a
physical death brought on by physical means.
Also, consider verse 19: And the rest of the
men which were not killed by these plagues yet
repented not of the works of their hands, that
they should not worship devils This verse
contrasts those who were killed with those
who werent. If John was referring to a spiritual
death, separate from a physical death, this
verse wouldnt make much sense, as those who
were spiritually but not physically dead would
no doubt also not repent of their wickedness;
making the contrast meaningless. However,
if John is referring to a physical death, this
verse becomes clear. Although 1/3 of man was
killed through the plagues, those who were
not killed are so hard of heart that even this
observable catastrophe does not move them
to repentance.
To sum it up: Although the word apokteino
can be used both of physical and spiritual
death, in the NT, it is usually used of physical
death. When it is referring to spiritual death,
there are normally clear indications of this in
the text (e.g. kill the soul). This, along with the
context of Revelation 9:15, indicates that the
1/3 of mankind killed by the 6th trumpet war
are physically killed.
Q: Does the Church of Philadelphia
relate to any form of believers of today?
(Reference Rev 3: 7-10)
- Michael
REPLY
| The messages to the seven churches
of Asia in Revelation 2 3 are messages to
literal churches of that day. God was speaking
specifcally to the Philadelphia church and he
placed these things in His word for us to learn
from today. This does not mean, however, that
we are living in the Philadelphia church age
today. God allows each Christian to express
free will and decide what type of Christian they
will be. The value to us
comes when we take the
positive principals and
apply them to
our personal
relationships with
God and man.
Q: What happens when we die? Do we go
directly to heaven? When are Christians
judged?
- Linda
REPLY
| The answer all depends on the condition
of ones soul. For those who have been born
again according to John 3 and Acts 2, they will
enjoy entering into the presence of the Lord
according to II Cor 5:8, We are confdent, I say,
and willing rather to be absent from the body,
and to be present with the Lord. The context
of this passage seems to indicate that our spirit
and soul goes directly to Heaven. The physical
body goes back to the dust of the earth (Gen.
3:19). After the resurrection (rapture) we will
all receive a new body (I Peter 3:21). Romans
14:10 says, We shall all stand before the
judgment seat of Christ. According to Rev. 20,
the fnal judgment takes place 1000 years after
the rapture. As for the destiny of those who
have chosen not to walk with God, an example
was given by Jesus in Luke 16:19, about a rich
man who ignored a beggar named Lazarus.
Lazarus went to Heaven with Abraham, but
the rich man wound up in torments (Hell). The
Bible presents this story as true, and not as a
fctional parable for mere teaching purposes.
For a more in-depth study, we recommend
that you obtain Irvin Baxters teaching course
which deals directly with these subjects. The
course is a production of Endtime University,
entitled, Understanding the Bible with
Irvin Baxter. You may order the course at

Q: Does the mark of the beast happen
after the Antichrist is revealed? Does the
False Prophet come on the scene after the
Antichrist is revealed?

REPLY
| Yes, Rev. 9:13-16 provides a foundation
for the implementation of the mark of the
beast system. The Antichrist is revealed at the
time of the Abomination of Desolation (Mat.
24), which happens in the middle of the fnal 7
years, 3 1/2 years or 42 months (Rev. 13:5) after
the Confrmation of the Covenant (Daniel 9: 23-
27). Once the Antichrist is revealed in the newly
rebuilt Jewish temple on the Temple Mount in
Jerusalem (II Thes. 2:4), then he will soon usher
in the global-wide numbering system, designed
to control the personal buying habits of human
beings worldwide, thus gaining control of the
world economy itself.
As far as when the false prophet comes on the
scene, Rev. 13 tells us that he is actually the
one who persuades the world to worship the
Antichrist using false miracles. He helps to force
the implementation of his global numbering
system (666). In order for the false prophet to
help usher in the revealing of the Antichrist at
the Abomination of Desolation, he will have to
be very active prior to the revealing. Many who
understand prophecy will recognize who he is
based on the scriptures.
Q: How do you think two billion people could
die? We Americans have a see no evil, hear
no evil mentality as long as the good times
keep rolling, which is a similar mentality of
those in the roaring 20s before the crash.
We can speculate what the scenario will
be, but the fact is, the mark is coming as
prophesied and we can not prevent it, only
delay the inevitable. Isnt there enough pain
and sufering and evil in this world today?
As far as Im concerned lets get on with
eternity, even so come Lord Jesus. Keep up
the good work Irvin Baxter and staf. Your
program is one that makes end time news
and biblical truth an unavoidable issue for
humanity. Though it may be a difcult pill
to swallow, a needed pill none the less. Just
be careful concerning the speculating! The
Lord bless you and yours

It would be nearly impossible to have
2 billion casualties without going nuclear.
The scripture also seems to indicate that
nuclear weapons will be used at the battle of
Armageddon according to Zechariah 14:12,
And this shall be the plague wherewith the
LORD will smite all the people that have fought
against Jerusalem; Their fesh shall consume
away while they stand upon their feet, and
their eyes shall consume away in their holes,
and their tongue shall consume away in their
mouth. Most of the major nations which will
most likely be involved in the 6th trumpet war
are nuclear capable nations. The news has been
echoing world leaders statements regarding
their potential use.
Q: My son, Andrew (13 yrs) and I are really
into your prophecy series and enjoy it. We
are trying to fgure out, based on news
articles on RFID chips, will RFID will be part
of the mark of the Beast? Do you discuss it
on any of your DVDs? Thanks so much
- Juli
REPLY
| We are glad to hear that Endtime material
is a blessing to you all. The passage where the
Mark of the Beast is found is Revelation 13:16-18.
Verse 18 contains the phrase, Six hundred
threescore and six, (666), which is derived
from the original Greek words: chi xi stigma
(pronounced key z stigma). This is the number
of the beast or of a man (the Antichrist). The last
Greek word in the phrase, stigma, represents the
fnal 6, and it literally means to stick or to prick,
a mark incised or punched for recognition of
ownership. Today, it is becoming increasingly
popular for RFID chips to be surgically implanted
under human skin. This procedure has been
approved and encouraged by both the US Food
and Drug Administration, and the American
Medical Association. We are not saying for sure
that RFID implants will be the mechanism used
by the Antichrist, however, its a real possibility
which we cannot ignore. Endtime Ministries has
produced 2 important DVDs which deal with this
subject, entitled, 666Satans Master Plan and
666How Close. We also ofer several DVDs
by Katherine Albrecht exploring the possibility
that RFID could be the mechanism used to fulfll
the technology side of this ancient prophecy.
You can obtain these at www.endtime.com or
call 1.800.ENDTIME (1.800.363.8463)
Q: I love the teaching, and prophetic
insight of Rev. Baxter. I was privileged
to enjoy Endtimes holy land prophecy
tour in the fall of 1995. In fact I was there
when Israeli Prime Minister Rabin was
assassinated. It was an awesome trip
that has ever impacted my life. Who are
Gods real chosen people? In the Bible,
Judah-Benjamin were taken captive by
the Babylonians, mixed with them, and
then adopted the Babylonian religions.
I believe that Christians are Gods chosen
people. Keep up the good work of
the Lord.
- Mike
REPLY
|You are correct that born again Christians
today are, in fact, Gods modern chosen people.
Israel has taken many twists and turns through
her lengthy history, and many times, she made
very poor choices which cost her dearly. The
fact remains, however, that according to Ezekiel
37, God promised to gather the Jewish people
back to their land, which you toured, and re-
establish them as a nation. This was fulflled
in 1948. This same passage also prophesies a
supernatural spiritual awakening for Israel that
still is yet a future event.
God promised in Joel 2:28 to pour out His Spirit
upon all fesh in the last days, which includes
the nation of Israel. Furthermore, Romans
11:25 provides this promise to the last-days
Jews: blindness in part is happened to Israel,
until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 26
And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written,
There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and
shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 27
For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall
take away their sins. By the way, the upcoming
Endtime Prophecy Tour of 2008 will be 11 days,
exclusively in Israel. For more information

6TH TRUMPET WATCH
MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM IS UP AND
RUNNING, MILITARY SAYS
Senior military of cers are saying that the
tracking radars and interceptor rockets of
a new American missile defense system
can now be turned on at any time. The
antimissile system could guard against the
risk of ballistic missile attack from North
Korea even while development continues
on a series of radars in California and the
Pacifc Ocean and on interceptor missiles in
Alaska and California.
BUSH SETTING UP AMERICA FOR WAR
WITH IRAN
Senior American intelligence and defense
of cials believe President Bush and his inner
circle are taking steps to put America on the
path to war with Iran. Pentagon planners
have developed a list of up to 2,000 bombing
targets in Iran. In a theoretical scenario put
forth by a senior intelligence of cer, the U.S.
would provoke a major Iranian response,
perhaps in the form of moves to cut of Gulf
oil supplies, to provide a trigger for air strikes
against Iran.
ALQAIDA PLANS NUCLEAR ATTACKS
ON 7 U.S. CITIES
FBI Director Robert Mueller said that al-
Qaidas paramount goal is to kill hundreds of
thousands of Americans. He said the threat
feels so real he lies awake at night thinking
about the prospect. In the book The Day
of Islam, author Paul Williams maintains
that al-Qaida is not content to blow up one
nuclear device or even simply a dirty nuke,
but wants to explode real nuclear devices in
seven U.S. cities simultaneously.
BUSH WARNS OF IRAN NUCLEAR
HOLOCAUST
In a speech to an American Legion group
in Nevada, and in an efort to convince
the war-weary public, President Bush said
that the war in Iraq was the central front in
the fght against what he described as the
Sunni Muslim extremism of the al-Qaeda
terrorist network and the Shiite extremism
fuelled by Iran. He warned that letting Iran
acquire atomic weapons risked putting
the Middle East under the shadow of a
nuclear holocaust.
CHINA THREATENS NUCLEAR OPTION
OF DOLLAR SALES
The Chinese government has begun a
concerted campaign of economic threats
against the United States. It appears that
Beijing may use its $1.33 trillion of foreign
reserves as a political weapon to counter
pressure from the U.S. Congress. Described
as Chinas nuclear option in the state media,
such action could trigger a dollar crash.
U.S. INTELLIGENCE OFFICER SAYS
CHINAS MISPLACED CONFIDENCE IN
WAR CONTROL A DANGER
Chinese of cials are studying the concept of
war control to evaluate scenarios should
fghting break out with Taiwan. China has
threatened war if the island tries to formalize
its de-facto independence. Washington has
pledged defensive weapons for Taiwan and
has hinted it would provide military backing
if China attacked.
EU WATCH
EU LAWYERS AGREE ON TREATY TEXT
Legal experts from the 27 European Union
countries have agreed on a draft reform
treaty. The treaty is set to replace the defunct
European constitution. A Portuguese
diplomat said Britain should be satisfed
with the outcome, but he insisted there was
no guarantee of an agreement.
EURO HITS ALLTIME HIGH
The euro reached a new all-time high
against the dollar. At its highest point, one
euro bought 1.4130 dollars. Pessimism
about the U.S. economy, worsened by the
housing crisis and the subsequent interest
rate cut pushed the dollar further down.
EUS SOLANA REFUSES COMMENT ON
NONUN SANCTIONS AGAINST IRAN
EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana refused
to comment on the possibility of non-United
Nations sanctions against Iran. Solanas
comments came after French Prime Minister
Francois Fillon said that tensions with
Iran were now extreme. Solana has been
negotiating to get Iran to suspend uranium
enrichment in exchange for political and
trade incentives.
EU AND THE GLOBALIST ALLIANCE
According to an article written by a
noted Norwegian blogger, Fjordman,
multiculturalism is a tool to divide and

national borders, the EU has facilitated the
largest migration waves in European history,
and that Stalin did the same thing with
moving large population groups around to
unsettle the state and keep it disunited. He

WILLIAM HAGUE CONDEMNS
EU TREATY
According to the frst authoritative analysis,
the new European Union treaty contains only
10 changes to the 250 proposals originally
outlined in the former EU constitution.
William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary,
said it was the EU constitution by another
name. By any honest analytical standards,
this treaty will mean, if it is enacted, a major
transfer of powers from Britain to the EU, he
said.

THOUGH FDA APPROVED, MICROCHIP
IMPLANTS LINKED TO ANIMAL CANCER
When the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
approved implanting microchips in humans,
the manufacturer said it would save lives,
but neither the company nor the regulators
mentioned that a series of studies stated
that chip implants had induced malignant
tumors in some lab mice and rats. The
transponders were the cause of the tumors,
said Keith Johnson, a retired toxicologic
pathologist.
ARIZONA ADOPTS HYBRID ID
APPROACH
Arizona is now the third state to volunteer
to develop a hybrid identifcation card that
combines a state drivers license with a U.S.
border-crossing card. Arizonas new drivers
license is poised to be one of the nations
frst to comply with Real ID requirements.
ALZHEIMERS PATIENTS LINING UP
FOR MICROCHIP
Up to 200 Alzheimers patients living near
Palm Beach, Fla., have been implanted with
the VeriChip. The chip contains a 16-digit
identifcation number, and the number will
be placed in a database in order to provide
medical information. Ida Frankel, who
developed Alzheimers disease, was one
of the frst patients to be implanted with a
VeriChip.
MICROCHIP IMPLANTS RAISE
PRIVACY CONCERN
The chipping of two workers with RFID
chips under the skin was merely a way of
restricting access to vaults that held sensitive
data and images for police departments,
according to CityWatcher.com, a provider
of surveillance equipment. The news that
workers had been injected with electronic
identifers to perform their jobs fred up a
debate over the proliferation of ever-more-
precise tracking technologies and their
ability to erode privacy. Ultimately, says
Katherine Albrecht, a privacy advocate, the
fear is that the government or your employer
might someday say, Take a chip or starve.
MIDDLE EAST WATCH
ARCHEOLOGISTS FIND 2ND
TEMPLE QUARRY
The Israel Antiquities Authority has
uncovered the ancient quarry where
King Herods workers chiseled huge high-
quality limestones for the construction of
the Second Temple. This is the frst Second
Temple quarry ever found. The enormous
size of the stones found at the site as well
as coins and fragments of pottery vessels
dating back to the frst century AD indicated
that this was the site used 2,000 years ago in
the construction of the walls of the Temple
Mount.
UN ENVOY: REVIVED MIDEAST
TALKS POSSIBLE
Michael Williams, the U.N. special coordinator
for the Middle East peace process, said
there are signs of hope that Israel and
the Palestinians can agree to revive the
stalled peace process in time for a related
U.S.-sponsored international conference in
November. He said the dialogue thats been
going on between Israeli Prime Minister
Ehud Olmert and Palestinian President
Mahmoud Abbas are encouraging signals.
There is a hope now which has been absent
for almost seven years.
OLMERT AND PERES: PALESTINIAN
STATE ON 100% OF WEST BANK AREA,
WITH SWAPS
According to an article in the Haaretz
newspaper, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert
examined a plan in which Israel would
transfer to the Palestinian state, areas
equivalent to 100 percent of the territories
conquered in 1967. The plan includes a
timetable for negotiations for the fnal
status agreement and implementing it.
Olmert met with Mahmoud Abbas and they
agreed that cooperation between Israel
and the Palestinian Authority would be
expanded. Our mutual goal is to realize the
shared vision between us and [U.S. President
George] Bush regarding the establishment
of two states for two peoples, who live side
by side in security and peace. We want to
achieve this as soon as possible.

AMERO MAKES COINAGE DEBUT
Parody coin designer Daniel Carr has
launched production of an amero coin.
He is selling the coins to coin dealers and

a common currency between the United
States, Canada, and Mexico.
UN REJECTS TAIWAN ADMISSION
APPLICATION
The United Nations has rejected Taiwans
application to become a member of the

WORLD RELIGION
ALBRIGHT: IGNORE RELIGION AT OUR
OWN PERIL
Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine
Albright says that in order to efectively
conduct foreign policy today, you have to
understand the role of God and religion. She
says we in the U.S. ignore the roll of religion
in politics with our belief in a separation of

CHIEF RABBIS, EU PRESIDENT DISCUSS
INTERFAITH UN
European Parliament President Hans-
Gert Pottering, in a meeting with Israels
chief rabbis, said that he would support
the establishment of an interfaith United
Nations. Chief Ashkenazi Rabbi Yona
Metzger said the president sent an envoy
to discuss in more detail the creation of an
international body made up of religious
leaders who could foster peace, and that he
envisions the body being based in the holy
city of Jerusalem.
ISLAMIC EDUCATION FOR ALL
A new government study, condemned by
the Christian ministry, the Barnabas Fund,
is being condemned because it would
move closer to imposing Islam in the United
Kingdom as a religion of state. Should this
report be implemented, education will be
handed over more and more to Muslims,
according to a Barnabas Fund analysis.
LISTEN TO EARTH, POPE SAYS IN

The prophecy hits you in the face like a ton of bricks! And
the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an
hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for TO SLAY THE
THIRD PART OF MEN. (Revelation 9:15)
My frst reaction wasthat cant really be what the
prophecy says! To slay the third part of men? That would
be two billion people dead! Surely not!
I checked the Greek. Sure enoughone-third of
mankind. I checked several other translationsone-third
of the human race; one-third of all the people on earth;
one-third of humanity. They all said the same thing!
A WAR IS JUST AHEAD THAT WILL KILL TWO BILLION
HUMAN BEINGS!
There simply is no precedent!
So that we can understand the enormity of this
prophecy, consider that, prior to the 20th century, there
had never been a war with one million fatalities. In 1914,
World War I broke out resulting in the death of 8.2 million
human beings! They called it The Great War! Some said it
would be the war to end all wars. But it wasnt.
Twenty short years later, the world was plunged into
World War II. This time there were not 8.2 million killed.
This time52 million! It was as though something had
come unhinged within the human soul! Six thousand
years of recorded human history and not one war with
1 million fatalities. Then, within 20 years of each other,
two wars had claimed 8.2 million and 52 million lives.
Even more ominous were the two mushroom clouds that
towered over Hiroshima and Nagasaki as World War II
came to its apocalyptic conclusion.
Fear around the globe was palpable. What would the
next war producewith these new weapons of mass
destruction flling the arsenals of the worlds nations?
World leaders just refused to think the unthinkable. But it
was frighteningly obvious that mankind now possessed
the power to wipe all life of the face of the planetmany
times over.
In a desperate attempt to insure that World War III
would never happen, the nations of the world decided
to create an organization designed to prevent war. They
called it the United Nations. Though many small wars
have raged around the globe since 1945, so far this new
system of global governance has contributed to avoiding
the nightmare scenario of World War III. All of us hope
that the tenuous peace that has largely prevailed will

hold. But will it? No!
The prophecy is crystal clear. World War III is coming!
This time, there wont be 8.2 million dead. There wont be
52 million dead. This time 2 billion human beings will be
annihilated from the face of the earth! We are talking about
40 times the fatalities of World War II! Its almost impossible
to comprehend, but it is going to happen. The only question
is: When?
The war will start in Iraq!
According to Revelation 9:14, the prophesied war will
originate from the area of the Euphrates River. The Euphrates
River is located mostly in Iraq where the United States has
170,000 troops stationed at this present time. Since fghting
is raging along the Euphrates today, we have to ask if the
Sixth Trumpet War might already have begun.
A war that kills two billion people will obviously be
a World War, making it World War III. James Woolsey, CIA
Director during the Clinton administration, says that World
War III began on 9/11. Thomas Friedman of the New York
Times agrees with him. Former Speaker of the House Newt
Gingrich also believes that World War III started on 9/11.
Finally, President Bush has added his voice to those who
contend we are now in WW III. On May 6, 2006, he stated
that the revolt of passengers on Flight 93 was, The frst
counter-attack of World War III.
When does the Bible say this war will occur?
The Sixth Trumpet War must occur before the
beginning of the great tribulation. The great tribulation is
that three and one-half year period that will immediately
precede the Battle of Armageddon. How do we know
the Euphrates River War must happen before the great
tribulation begins?
This prophesied war occurs in Revelation 9:13-21.
Right after this in Revelation 10, the beginning of the great
tribulation is recorded. In verse 5, an angel stands with
one foot on the land and one foot on the water declaring
that delay shall be no longer. Right after this, Revelation 11
describes the events of the fnal three and one-half years
preceding the Battle of Armageddon. In Revelation 11:2, we
are told that Jerusalem will be trodden down of the Gentiles
for the next 42 months (3 years). Then in Revelation 11:3,
Gods two witnesses begin their ministries, which continue
for the next 1260 days (3 years) until the end of the
tribulation period.
At the end of Revelation 11, the two witnesses are
killed, the last trumpet sounds, and the Battle of Armageddon
takes place. It is at this time that Jesus Christ returns to earth
to reign as King of kings and Lord of lords.
This same sequence of events is recorded in Daniel
12:1-7. An angel stands upon the waters and declares that
there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since
there was a nation even to that time, referring to the great
tribulation. One asked the angel how long it would be until
all this was over. He answered, Until a time, times, and an
half (3 years).
Both of these accounts describe an angel declaring
the beginning of a time of great tribulation, which will last
for three and one-half years.
Within the next 12 months?
According to the biblical prophetic timeline given
in scripture, four major prophetic fulfllments will occur at
approximately the same time.

If we can demonstrate that all four of these prophetic
developments are occurring right now, then it becomes
obvious that the time for the Euphrates River War has
arrived! Please walk through the prophecies with me.
An international peace plan for the Middle East
Daniel 9:27 prophesies that the world community
and the leader of the world community, the Antichrist,
will confrm the Abrahamic covenant with many for seven
years. The Abrahamic covenant is the promise God made
to Abraham that the Promised Land would be given to his
descendants. The passage is Genesis 15:18,
In the same day the LORD made a covenant with
Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from
the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
This confrmation of the covenant will confrm Israels
right to exist in the Holy Land and will mark the beginning
of the fnal seven years to Armageddon. Halfway through
the fnal seven years, the Antichrist will order the stopping
of animal sacrifces on the Temple Mount, which will have
been resumed by then. He will then stand in the temple
claiming to be God. This could mean he will claim to be the
ultimate authority over the Temple Mount since it will have
been placed under international supervision by then.
Does such an international peace plan exist?
In 2002, it was decided that Israelis and Palestinians
simply could not make peace between themselves without
international intervention. A new international alliance was
formed called the Quartet. The alliance consisted of the
United States, the European Union, Russia, and the United
Nations. Its sole purpose of existence was to produce a
peace plan for the Middle East and to oversee its adoption.
In April of 2003, the Quartet presented a peace plan
to Israelis and Palestinians called the Roadmap for Peace.
The Roadmap called for the determining of fnal borders
between the Palestinians and the Israelis, settling the status
of Jerusalem and settling the status of the Temple Mount.

ENDTIMEMAGAZINE | September-October 2007 13 SubscribeNow| www.endtime.com| Call 1.800.Endtime
In June of 2003, the Roadmap for Peace was adopted
by Israelis and Palestinians at a signing ceremony that
President Bush attended. Since that time, the international
community has struggled to implement the Roadmap
without success.
At the beginning of 2007, the White House
announced that peace in the Middle East would be
one of the premier goals of President Bushs fnal two
years in of ce. A full-blown initiative to reach this goal
was launched.
Meetings of the Quartet were held, and a steady stream
of visits to the Middle East by high profle diplomats began.
These included the new Secretary General of the United
Nations Ban Ki Moon, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza
Rice, and European Union High Representative of Foreign
Afairs Javier Solana.
In June of 2007, the
Quartet upped the ante even
farther. They appointed Tony
Blair, the high-profle former
prime minister of Great Britain,
to be the special envoy to the
Middle East. In July, President
Bush announced his intention
to host an international
conference on the Middle
East with the goal of bringing
the implementation of the
Roadmap for Peace to a
successful conclusion.
Under the intense
diplomatic pressure, Israeli
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert
and Palestinian Authority
Chairman Mahmoud Abbas
agreed to begin meeting
face-to-face bi-weekly. The
purpose of these meetings
was to pound out a general
agreement on core issues
for adoption at the peace
conference, tentatively announced for November 15, 2007.
Those core issues were defned as fnal borders, status of
Palestinian refugees, the status of Jerusalem and the status
of the Temple Mount.
If a general agreement can be attained before the
conference on these core issues, then negotiators will fesh
out the details of a fnal peace treaty within the six months
after the conference. This would allow the signing of the
treaty during the fnal year of the Bush administration.
Will a peace agreement on the Middle East be achieved?
According to the prophecies of the Bible, some form
of an agreement will be reached on the status of the Temple
Mount. Revelation 11:1-2 states that a rebuilt Jewish temple
will be under Jewish control while the outer court of the
temple will be under Gentile control. This arrangement
will continue during the 42 months preceding the Battle of
Armageddon.
Jesus also stated that Judea (the West Bank) would be
a place of terrible tribulation during this same 42 months.
This indicates that this area will be placed under the control
of Israels enemies.
From these specifc prophecies, we can conclude
that a peace agreement will take place, and when this
occurs, it will mark the beginning of the fnal seven years to
Armageddon.
The building of Israels temple on the Temple Mount
We have two specifc prophecies that describe a
temple standing on the Temple Mount three and one-half
years before Armageddon. II
Thessalonians 2:3-4 states that the
man of sin, the Antichrist, will sit in
the temple of God, claiming to be
God. This is the event known as the
abomination of desolation, which
occurs three and one-half years
before Armageddon. Its obvious
that the Antichrist cannot sit in a
temple if there isnt one. Revelation
11:1-2 describes the measuring of
a temple on the Temple Mount 42
months before Armageddon and
the Second Coming. Of course,
a temple couldnt possibly be
measured if none existed.
Since both of these prophecies
foretell that a temple will exist
three and one-half years before
Armageddon, we know for certain
that the temple has to be built
prior to this time.
When will the temple be built?
When Israels First Temple
was completed in 968 BC, King
Solomon ofered an animal sacrifce at the dedication. After
this, daily sacrifces were ofered as mandated by scripture.
When the Second Temple was completed in 516 BC, again
the daily sacrifces were instituted.
When the Third Temple is completed, sacrifces will be
ofered again. How do we know this? The Bible prophesies
that the Antichrist will cause the sacrifce and the oblation
to stop. You cant stop sacrifces that are not in progress.
Why will the Antichrist stop the sacrifces?
Imagine the cameras of CNN and other news services
honing in on the little lamb being ofered for the morning
sacrifce and then another little lamb being sacrifced that
evening. In our present animal rights climate, how long will

it take for the animal rights activists to begin marching
with placards: ANIMALS HAVE RIGHTS TOO! BARBARISM IN
THE 21st CENTURY! It wont take long.
We know that the sacrifces are stopped in the midst
of the fnal seven years (Daniel 9:27). From this we can
conclude that the building of the temple will be completed
not too long before this midway point.
How close are we to the building of the Third Temple?
For many years, the Temple Institute in Jerusalem has
been preparing the furniture and the utensils of the temple
in anticipation of the time when the temple will be rebuilt.
Within the last two years, the Institute has announced that
these preparations are now complete.
On October 13, 2004, the Jewish Sanhedrin was
reborn after being disbanded for 1,600 years. The
Sanhedrin was Israels supreme court in biblical times. It
was the Sanhedrin that put Jesus and many of the apostles
on trial.
At the Sanhedrins monthly meeting in June of
2005, they decided it was time to begin the rebuilding of
the temple. Since the Israeli government does not allow
Jewish religious activity on the Temple Mount, it was
decided that the temple would be built of-site, in the
same way that Solomons temple was built of-site and
then assembled on the Temple Mount. The decision was
made to prefabricate the building of the temple for quick
assembly once permission is granted by the government
to construct it.
On March 22, 2007, an article appeared in the Religion
News Service announcing the Sanhedrins plan to ofer a
Passover Sacrifce. They planned to sacrifce sheep on the
Temple Mount on the day before the Passover, which was
to start at sundown April 2. If the government will not
resist, we will do it, said Rabbi Dov Stein, a member of
the Sanhedrin.
The Sanhedrin bought a herd of 12 sheep, 110-150
pounds each, from a farm in southern Israel. Anyone
wanting to eat of the sacrifce can pay seven shekels ($1.67)
for an 8-10 gram slice, the minimum required by Jewish
law, Stein said.
The only thing standing between Israel and the
prophesied rebuilding of her temple is an agreement on
the status of the Temple Mount, which the Roadmap for
Peace calls for.
Preparations for the mark of the beast
Preparations for the mark of the beast must take
place in the frst three and one-half years of the fnal seven,
since the mark will be implemented during the reign of the
Antichrist, which takes place during the last three and a
half years.
The prophecy states:
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor,
free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or
in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell,
save he that had the mark, or the name
of the beast, or the number of his name.
Revelation 13:16-17
Economic sanctions are the favorite tool of the
United Nations against those states that will not submit
to the edicts of the world community. When sanctions are
levied against a nation, as is now being done to Iran, the
member nations of the UN agree to not trade with that
nation. The goal is to create such economic pressure that
the ofending nation will submit to the will of the world
government structure.
This same practice of sanctions will be used by
the world government during the great tribulation.
However, it will not only be used against nations, but also
against individuals.

The Antichrist will control the people of the world
during the great tribulation by forcing every person on
earth to worship him (pledge allegiance to him). Those who
do will be given a mark or a number permitting them to
participate in the economy of the world. Those who refuse
will be sanctioned economically by denying them the
privilege of buying and selling. Only since the invention
of the computer and the birth of the Internet has such a
system of worldwide economic control been possible.
The system is being set up now!
On May 11, 2005, President Bush signed the Real ID Act.
This law, advocated by the 9/11 Commission, was designed
to give the government control over every person in the
United States. The rationale behind this huge suspension
of freedom was that the only way to spot terrorists is to be
able to track and control everybody.
The Real ID Act mandates that every American have a
national ID card obtained from their state Bureau of Motor
Vehicles, by May 11, 2008. Coded into this card will be your
birth certifcate, your number (SS number), your digitized
picture, and your biometric identifcation (fngerprint or
eyescan).
It is rather sobering that the prophecy states the mark
will be in the hand or the forehead. Our fngerprints are on
our hands, and our eyes are in our foreheads. Too close for
comfort, isnt it!
The key to total control
The Real ID Act requires that each state place all this
information into the database of the BMV. Furthermore, the
state is then required to link its database with the databases
of the other 49 statescreating a national database. Once
every persons information is placed into the national
database, the federal government can then access your
records at the push of a button!
Furthermore, without a national ID card, a person
wont be able to board an airplane, open a bank account or
access any service requiring approved federal ID.
Without your ID card, you cant buy or sell
Sec. 707 of Homeland Securitys Immigration Bill
reveals exactly what proponents of big government intend
to do. Section 707 is titled: Report on social security card-
based employment eligibility verifcation.
(A) A requirement that social security cards that are
made of a durable plastic or similar material and that include
an encrypted, machine-readable electronic identifcation
strip and a digital photograph of the individual to whom
the card is issued, be issued to each individual (whether or
not a United States citizen).
(B) The creation of a unifed database to be maintained
by the Department of Homeland Security and comprised
of data from the Social Security Administration and the
Department of Homeland Security specifying the work
authorization of individuals (including both United States
citizens and non-citizens) for the purpose of conducting
employment eligibility verifcation.
(C) A requirement that all employers verify the
employment eligibility of all new hires using the social
security cards described in subparagraph (A) and a phone,
electronic card-reading, or other mechanism to seek
verifcation of employment eligibility through the use of
the unifed database described in subparagraph (B).
This bill would have required you to have a national
ID or else you would have been unable to hold a job in
America! No job? No buying and selling! The administration
and Homeland Security pushed for the passage of the
Immigration Bill with all of their might. Thankfully, it went
down to defeat. However, the danger is not past.
In spite of this decisive defeat, Homeland Security is
determined to enforce its system of total control over the
populace through its national ID scheme. The Real ID Act is
still law and due to be implemented starting May 11, 2008.
You can be sure that Homeland Security fully intends to
fnd another way to require a national ID as a condition of
employment.
Realizing that the implementation of the national ID
would spell the end of freedom, as we have known it, many
states are moving to reverse the Real ID Act. Seven states
have now passed laws against its implementation. Twenty-
seven others have either passed resolutions against it or
have introduced bills against it in their state legislatures.
The government is justifying this obsession with
control by contending that the security of the nation
requires it. However, we must not forget that control and
freedom are opposite terms. If we are controlled, we are
not free.
Whats behind the Real ID?
CNET news disclosed on October 26, 2005 whats
behind this drive for the implementation of a national
ID. The International Civil Aviation Organization, a United
Nations agency, has set globally interoperable standards
for identifcation documents. So what we are really
witnessing is not just the setting up of a national ID. We
are actually experiencing the establishment of a global ID
system.
Great Britain is also in the process of establishing
a national ID card. George Bush and Tony Blair agreed
that Britains cards would be readable on Americas card-
reading machines and Americas cards would be readable
on Britains machines. Then the other 26 nations in the EU
decided they should make their ID cards compatible with
Britains ID cards; thus they will also be compatible with
our cards. Consequently, the national ID will now be good
in the U.S. and throughout Europe! You get the idea. The
national ID is quickly being transformed into a global ID.

Is the mechanism for the mark of the beast being put in
place right now? Obviously!
The Euphrates River War
The fourth prophecy that will be fulflled just before
the fnal three and one-half years begins is the Euphrates
River War. Obviously, this prophecy does not even require
discussion. The fact that it is in process of fulfllment at this
moment is self-evident. The United States has 170,000 troops
fghting up and down the Euphrates at this present time.
The checklist:
International peace plan for the Middle East
Building of Israels temple
Preparing for the mark of the beast
War fought along the Euphrates River
Since all four of these prophetic fulfllments are in
progress right now, it appears certain that the present
Euphrates River War is the Euphrates River War of Revelation
9:13-21. If this is true, then we know that two billion people
will die before this war comes to its culmination.
President Bush has about one year left of his term. Since
this is his war and considering that he has the temperament
to participate in such a war, it certainly seems probable
that the prophesied apocalypse will occur while he is yet
in ofce.
If these things prove to be true, then two billion
human beings will die in the next 12 months!
God help us all!
Will the national ID become the mark of the beast?
All of the elements needed for establishing
the prophesied mark of the beast are present in the
requirements of the Real ID Act. The only thing that
would have to be added would be some type of pledge
of allegiance to the Antichrist or to his one-world
government. If the Real ID Act is not repealed, it appears
almost certain that it will ultimately become the mark of
the beast.
The entire world is preparing for the mark
Out of 193 nations on earth, 188 of them either have
a national ID card or are in the process of implementing
one. The only nations without a national ID are Mexico,
Ireland, Congo, New Zealand, and the Philippines.
