This in glorious world is at a tipping point.

Hello and welcome to the weekly broadcast of the program Preach the Gospel. Trouble is Coming to the Earth. Presented by Jeshurun Ministry GB in the Bahamas. It's the program designed to give you solutions that will help you prevail in this season of turbulence.

Friend, the world is at a tipping point in three critical areas of life according to the experts. This means that there are three global dynamics in which the world has reached a critical and irreversible threshold. Another way of stating this is these three things were small yet growing problems and now they ballooned to their most disastrous stages and there's no turning back.

The speaker is not the one saying these things. Believe it or not, the world really is at a tipping point. According to scientists, economists, and geopolitical analysts, they are all saying and using the very same terms to describe the current frightening reality of the world in at least three areas. And furthermore, the book of Revelation prophesies about this. Believe it or not, the world is really tipping and disaster really is looming. And this also means that the earth and the world is ripe for the breaking of the seven seals prophesied in the book of Revelation.

Recently, we witnessed the signing of a deal between Iran and the United States to bring an end to the war in Iran, which was started by the US and Israel. Up to that point, the war had dragged on for three months, three weeks, and one day. However, at the start, the US had boasted that they would bring Iran to its knees in a week or two and bring the war to a swift end.

As you may be aware, the deal between the US and Iran started falling apart two days after it was signed because Israel claimed it did not recognize the memorandum of understanding and continued to bomb Lebanon, which was not supposed to happen under the terms of the New Deal. Please know this biblical truth, friend. Iran is Persia and Persia will be present for the very last battle that will be fought on earth, the battle of Armageddon. Iran is a mystery to many of the leaders of the world and today they are greater than before Trump and Netanyahu attacked it. Persia is gaining strength. This is a bad sign for the world. Nevertheless, God is in charge.

Father, we give You thanks and praise for this glorious and wonderful day that You have given to us and for Your many blessings which You have been showering upon us and we have been enjoying. We thank You. We pray that You would protect the listeners to this message during these troubled times in the world. Strengthen them with power from on high Father. We pray this prayer in Jesus Christ's name. Amen.

My friend, I thank you for pressing the subscribe, like and share buttons on this video so that you may receive more like this and the word of God may go around the world. The Lord bless and keep you in Jesus' name. Amen.

Now, back to the discussion. Bless the Lord about the tipping point. Yes, these three critical areas and even a fourth that I've added and any one of them is consequential enough to bring about significant collapse of established essential systems across the planet and could bring the whole world to its knees.

And so why am I sharing this information with you? So that you can see how conditions present conditions in the world are lining up to fit the prophecies about the great tribulation. The world conditions are almost ripe for the tribulation my friend.

So we begin with the ecology of the world which is at a tipping point they say because marine ecosystems are collapsing. The Amazon rainforest is in danger of becoming a dry desert, they say, and ice sheets in the Antarctic and Greenland are melting, creating giant tsunamis as they melt and the sheets fall into the water.

Because of destructive and wasteful human activities, the world is almost on life support. In fact, the Earth has failed its most recent regular health examination. The experts have done a complete health check on the earth, checking its pulse, its blood pressure, glucose levels, heart rate, water content. And unfortunately, the results that have come back from the lab are frightening. We've gone from a period of stability in the world and in the earth's system to a period of heightened vulnerability, they say.

Scientists say the results indicate we're not just facing a climate crisis. They show that there have been seven out of nine structural failures in the earth's system. Another way of saying it is seven out of nine critical boundaries that are important for normal functioning of the earth have been breached.

I will not bore you with the big scientific terms. I will simply say greenhouse gases are driving up the temperatures in the world. The oceans are becoming too warm and too acidic and this threatens marine life. Deforestation or cutting down the forest have altered rainfall cycles and caused the global freshwater shortage. They describe it as a domino effect in which one system is knocking out another system which is knocking out the next etc.

Let us see how this relates to the opening of the fourth seal found in Revelation 6:verses 7 and 8. And I read, "And when He had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see." 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 is a pale green or ashen colored horse. It is symbolic, they say, of the color of a decaying corpse or the body of someone suffering from a terminal disease. This horse represents a literal graveyard. The rider on the horse is named death and hell is following after him. Which means those that will be dying in this season are they that do not know Jesus Christ as Lord. 25% of the earth which is more than two billion people will be killed either by sword in war or fighting, by starvation and malnutrition and by plagues, epidemics like Covid 19 and even by wild beasts.

And then we go to tipping point number two. Institutions built to maintain global stability after World War II are at a tipping point. they say. They are facing severe stress tests. There's less cooperation among nations and active conflicts are heating up all over. In addition, governments of almost all nations are dealing with unmanageable interest payments on their outrageously high and unsustainable debts. And we will come back to this.

World War I and World War II were so devastating and so many people were killed that the Allied powers formed several global institutions to maintain political security, economic stability, and global trade as well. Institutions such as the UN, the IMF, the World Bank, and the WTO are the main ones.

The plan was that the United Nations would prevent and resolve conflict. The IMF would prevent monetary collapse, the World Bank would rebuild infrastructure, and the WTO would keep tariffs and competition low and fair. These organizations were founded because leaders realized we all need each other. No nation is an island unto itself. And this is why Jesus Christ said that the second greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. Yes, friend, no man is an island unto himself. And we are all our brother's keepers. Even though Cain did not think so when the Lord asked him where Abel was.

The world's present dilemma. Here are some of them:

  • Certain forces in the US and elsewhere are trying to get rid of these institutions. Sad.

  • We have an evil regime in Iran dictating the economics of the world today.

  • A nuclear armed oppressive North Korea which was non-existent a 100 years ago

    is active and powerful.

  • We have a power- hungry Russia that is attempting to return to the size and dominance of the past.

  • We have a mysterious and burgeoning Buddhist world power in China whose aggressive agenda has made it equal or greater in power than the United States and this signals a major power shift in the world leadership.

  • Then we have a faltering leader of the free world that has lost its compass and is floundering.

  • We have a European Union of nations trying to establish an identity while trying to stand in the way of Russia.

  • And we have Israel, the most persecuted nation in the history of the world.

God's chosen nation, which has become more dominant and provocative to its neighbors like never before.

The collapse of these institutions will signal a time where society and its infrastructure collapses completely under the weight of human conflict and natural disaster. The world will no longer be a civilized world. It would be every man for himself.

Thirdly, the third tipping point alarm sounded due to the unstable age of misinformation and rapid advancements of AI is what the experts say. This threatens the stability of the entire world. Age old systems are set to collapse, they say, and massive job losses are being forecasted for the future.

The experts say that the problem is not simply that people will be believing false things. They say the problem is bigger than that. They say we are faced with the dangers of a systemic erosion of absolute truth altogether.

And one of the dangers they say is that any video, audio or document can be perfectly faked. This allows malicious actors to dismiss genuine evidence as AI generated. And so we will not be able to tell what is false and what is real. It took me a while to process, to understand what all the fuss is about this. And I'm still working on it. Because I could not visualize this happening. But it is a real threat and it already is beginning to happen.

Number four, I have added this fourth tipping point which is the collapse of global economies. There are two issues. The rich are getting richer and the poor are becoming poorer. And there's a huge ever widening gap between them. And this problem is a drag on world economies because the rich are few and can only spend so much and this slows down the economies. The real spenders, the consumers that drive economies have little or no money to spend.

So where is the world's money going? The answer is very easy. It is going into the pockets of the mega corporations and the mega moguls. The world's inequality report says that the top 10% of the population now control roughly 75% of global wealth and the bottom 50% owns only 2% of the world's wealth. This is a huge problem.

A more troubling issue is the fact that the nations of the world are struggling to keep up with their debt. According to various sources, total global debt has hit a record 348 trillion. Nations, meanwhile, are struggling with ever increasing interest rates and have difficulty keeping up. The heaviest chunk of their revenue is sucked up in paying interest. They cannot even begin to start paying off their debt. These nations will never be able to repay their debt and governments will be able to do less and less for the people. Furthermore, the rich will have even greater control over governments and government leaders.

And when this imbalance is felt more and more by the small man, hopelessness will set in. The younger generation are already experiencing this hopelessness, this pinch and feel that they will not be able to manage. They feel they'll never be able to afford their own home. Soon, my friend, unrest will cause economies to crash. Nations will be taken over by violent demonstrations. This will create bedlam in the nations.

No one knows what will happen when the perfect storm of these four world issues go bang bang at the same time. That is the economies of the world crashing, the leadership crisis across the globe exploding out of control, the destructive effects of climate change climaxing with catastrophic natural disasters and the devastatingly massive effect of AI and the proliferation of error which will cause truth to disappear. Yes, the truth of God's Word will be suppressed.

So how will it be when these four impact the world all at once? Let us now look at the breaking of the sixth seal according to Revelation chapter 6 verses 12 to 14. And I read, "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, and the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree castes her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind." And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

According to this text, six major cosmic disasters will come and there will be a great earthquake like the world has never seen before. The sun will be blacked out. There will be a blood moon. Stars will fall to the earth. The sky over our heads will vanish. And perhaps the second heaven where Satan and his demonic forces live will be wiped out completely. The landscape of the world will be reshaped. Islands will be wiped out or moved to different locations.

It will be so terrible at the breaking of this sixth seal that the kings of the earth. Scripture tells us and I read and the great men and the rich men and the chief captains and the mighty men and every bondman, every slave that is and every free man hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains 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 for the great day of His wrath has come and who shall be able to stand.

Friend, we hope that the church will have already been gathered by this terrible time. But fear not, God will rescue all His faithful believers. God bless and keep you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

You've been listening to this message and perhaps you do not know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. As usual, we want to give you an opportunity to make that commitment that you may avoid the wrath of God which is coming upon the earth.

Please engage your heart and say this prayer after me:

  • Father, I am a sinner.

  • I am sorry, Lord, for all my sins.

  • I crave Your forgiveness.

  • Please help me.

  • I have decided to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.

  • Dear Lord Jesus, welcome to my heart.

  • I give You the key to my heart because I now belong to You forever.

  • Please keep the key forever.

  • Please give me the Holy Spirit to teach me Your Word and to lead me into all truth.

  • To give me peace and comfort during these troubled times.

  • Thank You Lord for saving my soul. Amen.

Welcome friend to the body of believers in Christ. Many have been gathered and more and more are being gathered every day. In the meantime, we encourage you to let your pastor know that you've committed your life to the Lord and you want to be baptized the way Jesus Christ was baptized.

Begin reading the Word of God every day. Begin in the book of John. Then go to Matthew, Mark, and Luke, reading audibly as often as possible because faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Pray daily, attend at your local church, and one glad morning the Savior will come and receive us all unto Himself. And we shall indeed forever be with the Lord.

God bless and keep you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
