This week on Marking the End Times, I am talking about the new documentary film, Praying for Armageddon, and how it misrepresents those who believe in Biblical prophecy. I dive deeper into how this reflects a bigger problem in society that rejects God and rejects Christianity.

Subscribers have access to the exclusive edition of the show that includes an in depth Q&A session. I will be answering questions such as, “Who are the elect in Matthew 24:31?” and “Could the earthquakes in Turkey be the opening of the great abyss mentioned in Revelation 9?”

  3. The LORD had said to Abram, "Go from your country, your people and your father's household to the land I will show you. [Gen 12:1 NIV]

    Comments: God did not promise Israel, God Promised Abraham.

    "I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. [Gen 12:2 NIV]

    Comments: Fulfillment of that promise to Abraham came finally through his oldest son Ishmael and Ishmael progenies are the once who became a great nation Muslims today two billion, while Jews are 5 million only.

    I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." [Gen 12:3 NIV]

    Comments: The true message of Abraham is the submission to his creator the only God who has no partners or sons. And the only ones who fulfill this are Arabs through them the message of Islam came to correct the corruption made by Jews and Christian's.

  5. I have not yet viewed the “Praying for Armageddon” documentary (will be watching it shortly; actually wanted to watch an evangelical Christian Zionist response first), but honestly, I think that the concerns raised by it which Mark is pushing back on are actually valid concerns. I mean, I am an American evangelical Christian and I honestly see these things as legitimate concerns.

  6. For the record and for the benefit of whoever might read this comment:

    I am a devout Christian. I love the Lord Jesus Christ. I take the Bible seriously as God’s word and believe it wholeheartedly. But I regard the millenarian dispensational end times views of the so-called Christian Zionists to be seriously in error. Theirs is a relatively novel (and I would add misguided) interpretation of the scriptures (arriving on the scene in the mid nineteenth century) and has not been held by the majority of Christians over the last two millennia.
    Good theology and faithful interpretation of the biblical texts, of course, do not depend on the majority position; all I’m saying is that a person does not have to subscribe to these views held by Mark Hitchcock and others in order to be a Christian.
    And in all fairness to Mark, I think he would probably agree with my last statement.

  10. Gutless Hypocrite (… as clearly defined in the Bible's New Testament… you know, the one supposedly followed by Christians…)

    “Christian” Nationalists are intent on creating a ‘Goats Only Paradise’ (GOP?) in the U.S. per this explicit biblical passage:

    Matthew 25:31-46

    English Standard Version

    The Final Judgment

    31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,[a] you did it to me.’

    41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ 45 Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

    The ‘GOP- Goats Only Paradise’ is intent on creating the same hell on earth that awaits them in their biblically mandated after-life of eternal punishment since they proudly, and aggressively ignore the explicit teachings of Christ while gutlessly and sacrilegiously doing so in the name of Christ:

    Matthew 5

    English Standard Version

    The Sermon on the Mount

    5 Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down, his disciples came to him.

    The Beatitudes

    2 And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying:

    3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

    4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

    5 “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

    6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.

    7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

    8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

    9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons[a] of God.

    10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

    11 “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.

    12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

    And finally sealing the deal by ignoring Christ’s warning by constantly braying during obnoxious public displays of sacrilegious actions and prayers:

    Matthew 6

    English Standard Version

    Giving to the Needy

    6 “Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

    2 “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

    The Lord's Prayer

    5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 6 But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

    7 “And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9

    Matthew 23

    English Standard Version

    Woes to the Scribes and Pharisees

    23 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, 2 “The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat, 3 so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice. 4 They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger. 5 They do all their deeds to be seen by others. For they make their phylacteries broad and their fringes long, 6 and they love the place of honor at feasts and the best seats in the synagogues 7 and greetings in the marketplaces and being called rabbi by others. 8 But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven. 10 Neither be called instructors, for you have one instructor, the Christ. 11 The greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

    13 “But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut the kingdom of heaven in people's faces. For you neither enter yourselves nor allow those who would enter to go in. 15 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel across sea and land to make a single proselyte, and when he becomes a proselyte, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves.

  12. The Christians are one of the few groups among Armageddon deniers.
    It is the so called left who are spreading the bad news that the world is about to end if we don't destroy our heritage and nations and democracy. It is the left who are promoting that either the seas will rise and swallow us or the sun will burn us to a crisp. They say that their high priests of the climate models have said that we have to sacrifice our children's future to them and the angry goddess of gaia. It is the left that say we have to have lockdowns whenever the unelected UN WHO tell us to. Again Christians were the Armageddon deniers, who followed real science that told us that the virus was really not such a great threat to those who were not elderly and did not have significant comorbidities . The left were the ones behind the Gestapo-like impositions of the experimental vxxs.
    This is yet another set of the damn lies to go with their damn lie statistics.

  14. Doing that is evil. Condemning asap eight billion men, women, and children to horrific murder because YOU are virtuous and will be saved? Have a good look at your life and read the New Testament

  17. So if this woman did a docu drama about the Muslims wanting their Mahdi bringing in Armageddon she’d have a bounty on her heard or would be dead or beheaded by now like what happened to that guy in Denmark who had made fun of the prophet Muhammad in a cartoon section of a newspaper

  18. I like your messages but I noticed you save certain parts of messages to the end where only people who pay can watch why are you not trusting in God to provide if you are doing his work it’s fishie you tickle the ears and save the rest for who pays Christ never charged for his messages and if you are doing his work he will provide everything please check yourself

  19. Isn't it great to finally be hearing these " new" announcements that our Blessed Redeemer is on the way …I never dreamed I would hear these things in my lifetime and am so thankful to be one of His despite my imperfections…thank you Lord Jesus' …MARANATHA !!!😇♥️🌿

  28. Armageddon (mountain of troops) is an inner FINAL battle between the soul and ego (self) that happens in everyone whose end or last generation of egoism has come: I can share a lot lot about that because I experienced it and am still in the final hours of it. I want to share why people struggle so much with understanding Jesus:

    adding this even later because I can discern my writing below many have been too difficult to grasp without the anointing: I wrote this to the channel "TESTIFY" today and will put it here as well:

    If Jesus was before Abraham, we have to ask, what did Jesus mean by this? He also said ABRAHAM SAW MY DAY and was glad. 1) why was Abraham glad and 2) when did that happen? If you can answer those two questions, you probably will totally understand Jesus, no more questions asked and nothing in the whole Bible will ever contradict again by simply understanding the answer to those two questions: So let me answer them quick and soundly:

    1) Abraham was glad because the LIGHT circumcised his heart (the three animate levels he cut in half, which represent his DESIRES, hence the heart is the DESIRE of man which is why it is written to be more wicked and feeble than all things. The heart is the problem and it is written, out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks, so here is blasphemy and evil tongue (lashon hora) as well. Making the heart which is the BEAST that goes throughout the whole world, all nations, and all Kingdoms, into "MAN" is the purpose of the WORD which is Jesus Christ, the WORD made flesh. SO the LIGHT that is the LIFE of MAN (not mankind which is the creation) but MAN, the image and likeness of God. God creates evil (creature) and then FORMS the MAN within the creation. This too is written: So Abraham the first Jew, discovers the purpose of creation which is to be FORMED into MAN which separates his consciousness into three parts; God, Satan or the great darkness that the light reveals and MAN, the purpose of learning how these two together FORM this MAN we all must become.

    2) The LIGHT goes through the animate desires when it gains a GREATER DESIRE than the animate and makes its first choice to trust the UNKNOWN (God) in favor of the known that is no longer giving him the desires of his animate heart. Now, if he follows the light that reveals himself to Abraham little by little, then he moves in consciousness from Beast to MAN in four phases, hence the FOUR LETTER NAME YHVH:

    for another video about Muslims who speak of the gospel contradictions, I reasponded:

    Muslims are right and yet, they are also limited in understanding what the NT really says because they don't grasp the WORD in SPIRIT and TRUTH, but with the carnal (beastly) mind or five physical senses (virgins without OIL/anointing) while the five spiritual senses (virgins with OIL or the anointing) do understand the WORD spiritually and therefore KNOW THE TRUTH that set them FREE to go with the bridegroom while the carnal mind is LEFT BELOW. The carnal mind or ENMITY with God that he himself put at enmity with his seed (Messiah) can NOT KNOW God or be JOINED to God for flesh and blood can not inherit the Kingdom. If you don't have the ANOINTING, you don't have spiritual senses and you can't be ready for the bridegroom or RAPTURE. The rapture is an individual experience at an HOUR you don't know ahead of time but SUDDENLY the LORD comes into HIS temple, YOUR HEART and guess what? There is NO ROOM in the INN (Inner court, Holy Place, so Dan 9 and Math 24 explain, here is the ABOMINATION that causes all desolations in the earth: Muslims understand all this comes in a vision hence Zechariah 12 is a VISION the JEWS are waiting for, the serpent lifted up: It comes first to the house of David and then the other Mary's at the cross: The FOUR gospels are the FOUR PHASES of correction which is why there are differences in them; JOHN is the final phase or the renewing of the CARNAL MIND (Mary Magdalene) who could not cleave to Jesus till he ascends, meaning till the HEART is fully corrected and this is the place he makes ready for the nations to also enter into the Kingdom, the tabernacle of David, a HOUSE OF PRAYER for all nations:

  33. Most Christians believe that Jesus Christ did not have His second coming yet and that Revelation is pending fulfillment in our future. They don't believe that Jesus had his second coming back in the first century just as He said it would be. So, they say he is coming and then Revelation will be fulfilled. What a joke.

  34. Sounds like a good movie. Dispensational eschatology has many Zionists who believe that Matthew 24 applies to our future. Their misplaced eschatology imposed on our day for a fulfillment in our future is FALSE and is why the movie was made. Matthew 24 doesn't extend beyond 70 A.D. Christ second coming was in the first century just as He said it was to be.

  36. LORD is YHWH is Yahweh from Genesis 2 who is the Devil 👿.

    Use the Names of God (NOG) translation when you're reading Old Testament stuff. It's the only one I could find that doesn't remove the Names of God.

    It's in the like fifty different translations on most any Bible website (I use Bible Gateway).

    Read it like the Holy Spirit intended before fart-huffing Religious Dogmatics (we'll call them Pharisees) deemed the Names too Holy to NOT be removed, as if that makes any sense 🤪.

  38. What does an understanding of the New Covenant do to the Pretrib Rapture doctrine?

    Since the New Covenant is “everlasting” in Hebrews 13:20, how is the New Covenant Church age going to end seven years before the Second Coming of Christ? Why would anyone think God is going back to the Old Covenant system now made “obsolete” by the New Covenant in Hebrews 8:13? We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24.

    Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, modern Dispensational Theology falls apart, and the pretrib removal of the Church falls with it.

    The Capitol "C" Church, as we use the word today, is not found in the entire Book of Revelation. Individual church bodies in ancient Asia Minor are found. In Revelation 12:11 we find those under the blood of the Lamb. A person cannot be under the blood of the Lamb and not be a part of the New Covenant Church of Jesus Christ. Verse 12 of this passage proves at least part of the tribulation period is the wrath of Satan upon the people of God.

    Rev 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

    Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

    "It may come as a surprise to most pre-Trib prophecy students that the post-Trib position (in its primitive form) is the oldest point of view."

    (The quotation above is from the book "Will You Escape The Tribulation? RAPTURE [Under Attack]", by Tim LaHaye, copyright 1998, Page 197.) Tim LaHaye was co-author of the “Left Behind” books and movies which have convinced millions of modern Christians that the Church age ends seven years before the Second Coming of Christ. Recently, Pastor Matt Furse of Mountain View Baptist Church in Custer, S.D. has written a book titled “Which One Is Right?’, which reveals the recent history of the pretrib rapture doctrine, and the fact it does not agree with what is written in the King James Bible.

    The gathering of the Church is described at the end of 1 Thess. Chapter 4, and the timing of the event is found in chapter 5. The word “But” in the first verse of chapter 5 connects the two chapters, and the words “we” and “sleep” in verse 10 of chapter 5 prove the two chapters are connected.

    The Greek words for “wrath” and “tribulation” are not the same word, as proven by the verse below.

    Rev 1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

    ===================================

    Multiple Second Coming Visions in Revelation: (book not in chronological order )

    Christ returns one time in the future. However, there are several different visions of His return shown from different perspectives in the Book of Revelation.

    Christ returns at the end of Revelation chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are found in the Olivet Discourse.

    Those at the end of the chapter are hiding from the wrath of the Lamb.

    Why would they be hiding if Christ is not present?

    The "kings", "captains", "might men", "free", and "bond" are also found in chapter 19 at the return of Christ.

    He returns at the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible, and the time of the judgment of the dead in Revelation 11:15-18.

    The beginning of chapter 12 is a history lesson containing the fall of Satan, and the birth and death of Christ, who is the seed promised to crush the head of Satan in Genesis 3:15.

    The Second Coming is found in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew chapter 13.

    He comes as a thief at Armageddon, and we find the greatest earthquake in history in chapter 16. This occurs when the 7th angel pours out his vial. How powerful is an earthquake which moves islands and destroys the mountains? What is happening to the planet?

    He comes on a horse in chapter 19.

    Chapter 20?

    Does He come with the fire, and the judgment of the dead at the end of chapter 20, which agrees with what Paul said in 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10, and 2 Timothy 4:1?

    (The time of the judgment of the dead is also found in Revelation 11:18.)

    There are no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Matthew 25:31-46.

    Why does an angel come down from heaven with a key to unlock the bottomless pit in Revelation 9:1-2, if the pit was not already locked before that time? Are there wicked angels in the pit in Rev. 9:11? If the beast "ascends" from the pit in Rev. chapter 11, where was the beast before that time?

    Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness?

    Revelation 9:14 proves some of the angels were previously bound in some manner.

    Because the two witnesses were bodily resurrected from the dead in Revelation 11, the "first resurrection" at the beginning of Revelation 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the book.

    The principle of "Recapitulation" means there are multiple visions of His return.

  39. Armageddon isnt comming. Horrible translation errors have been made.

    One of the reasons people misrepresent God / are confused about God are the horrible translation errors in our bibles made by clerks of "a certain denomination".

    They had no clue about God's intend, so made it fit their conviction.

    Luckely the original line is clearly visible.

    1: God created us after His own image and likeness. Gen 1:27.

    2: Man fell. That is what you see in this world: lust, greed, selfishness, strange philosophies, sicknesses, corruption, terrorism, death, etc, etc. Genesis 3.

    3: God, the spirit of life, manifests fully in Christ, pays the debt for mankinds fall so we can be indwelled again by His Spirit and be transformed back to origin. John 14-17.

    Pure grace, love, power of God for His creation.

    Hence the divine healing miracles and casting out of demons His first friends, i and many others experience up to this day!

    Some examples of these idiotic translation errors.

    Saved, from the Greek "Sozo" actually means: made complete, brought back to origin.

    Eternal life from the Greek "Zoë" means: life of God, divine life.

    "You will see Jesus coming on the clouds" actually reads: "You will perceive Jesus from a heavenly perspective"… who He is, what He did, who you are IN Him.

    "Everyone not found in the book of life will be thrown in the lake of fire" actually reads: "Everything not found in the book of life….". Every lie we believed about God and ourselves will vanish through Jesus's truth.

    Wrath from the Greek "Orge" means PASSION. So there is no wrath of God upon mankind. God IS love!

    Wrath from the Greek "Thumos" also means PASSION. There goes the "bowls of wrath" poured out by God over humanity… it's "bowls of boisterous PASSION through Christ" that are poured outt!!!

    Etc, etc, etc, look it up in the Kittel Theological Dictionary or in any Greek/Hebrew Strong's app. It's there.

    So now we have ignorant preachers parotting the lie that we have to be saved from God's wrath by Jesus (who is God….) and "have to repent or go to hell". Utter nonsense.

    In stead it is: God restores us through Christ by His own atoning blood sacrifice and indwelling Holy Spirit, from mankind's fall, to His own image and likeness (Christlikeness) because of… passion.

    For God so loved the world….

    God cannot be tempted to do evil….

    There is no turning or shifting with Him….

    If you don't love you don't know God, for God is love….

    The goal of all instruction is… love

    The Father Himself loves you….

    Jesus healing all….. love

    Jesus raising the dead….. love

    Jesus casting out demons…. love

    Jesus controlling nature….. love

    If wrath would be in God, it would be the tenth fruit of the Spirit…. and it is not!

    So… we're made for God's image and likeness Gen 1:27. Man and woman He made them. That got lost in mankinds fall. Hence all confusion, sicknesses, allien doctrines, egoism, etc, etc. Gen 3. Now God stooped down in Christ to, by His perfect sacrifice and Holy Spirit, transforms us back to…. Gen 1:27. John 14-17.
    God already came full circle. Yay!

    For us to embrace His Spirit and be changed back to original created value, by His Spirit.
