“Blinded eyes”
by Art Sadlier
August 20th, 2007

The biblical scenario of the End Time Prophetic Events is being fulfilled before our very eyes. We are living in the most dramatic, exciting and fearful days in all of history.

Day after day the world is being prepared for the coming, awful day of God's vengeance upon the world, and yet everywhere we look, the eyes of men are closing to what is happening around them.

Jesus said, to some of the men of his day, men who were blind to the great events that were unfolding around them, "O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but ye cannot discern the signs of the times." Someone has said, there are none so blind as those who will NOT see."

All around us the sign of the times are like flashing red lights that are crying out for men to take heed. Like a jigsaw puzzle, more and more of the pieces are falling into place.

Let me mentions some of these examples of this unfolding scenario.

THE REVIVAL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE, as Daniel foretold would take place in the Last Days. The E.U. is claiming emphatically that they are the revived Roman Empire. and that they have come to impact the whole world.

THE RETURN OF ISRAEL to her Divinely Promised Land, a return that is unfolding exactly the way God said it would. We actually see God's enabling hand upon Israel as demonstrated in miraculously giving Israel victory in three wars.

THE PROPHESIED ATTEMPTS to drive Israel off her land, and the attempts to divide her land with her enemies for a promised (false) peace.

THE RISE OF RUSSIA and her being prepared to fulfil her Endtime Prophetic Role.

THE RISE OF AN ALLIANCE OF NATIONS, whose intentions are to destroy Israel. This exact alignment is prophesied in Ezekiel 38 & 39., and is now forming exactly as Ezekiel foretold.

THE AWAKENING OF THE SLEEPING GIANTS OF THE EAST, and their being prepared to come to the Battle of Armeggedon at the close of the tribulation period.

THE RISING WORLD CHURCH which will unite with the Revived Roman Empire to rule the world. It is a fact that the official seal of the E.U. is a woman riding a beast, just as John describes in Revelation seventeen.

THE LOOMING WORLD ECONOMY and THE LOOMING WORLD GOVERNMENT, just as the prophets foretold. (see Rev.13:7, 16, 17.)

STORMS - FLOODS - EARTHQUAKES - WARS AND RUMOURS OF WARS - WIDE SPREAD DEPRAVITY AND UNRESTRAINED EVIL.

TERROR AND ANARCHY ALL AROUND US.

Wars and rumors of war, earthquakes on the rise in numbers and intensity, unprecidented storms all around the world, floods, droughts, epidemics and famines. None of these are new to the world, but the increase in numbers and intensity is unprecidented. This tells us we are living in the last days of the last days. Jesus described these days as the "Beginning of Sorrows." Mt. 24:8.

Terror and terrorists, are shattering our world more and more with each passing day. Terror attacks such as we are seeing are hard for civilized people to comprehend. Yet, we are becoming hardened to it all. We have the threat of nuclear weapons in the hands of rogue states and terrorists. Our world is sick and that sickness is terminal.

We are not surprised that the eyes of unbelievers are closed to this unfolding Last Days Scenario. We are troubled that some of God's people are unaware of and indifferent to the nearness of the coming Day of the Lord.

God's people are without excuse in not understanding the times. Paul said, "But ye brethren, are not in darkness that, that day should overtake as a thief." 1 Thess. 5:4.

Keep listening for the sound of the trumpet.

Looking for His glorious appearing! Titus 2:13
