While we have concentrated thus far on terrorist bombing
attacks which appear to have been carried out by specific
organizations or ethnic groups with a very specific agenda,
or at least by persons who are sympathetic to their causes,
the tragedy of human rage and rebellion does not end there.
In recent years, the American press has been filled with
shocking stories of lone gunmen, or of one or two persons
who have lashed out at society due to some kind of personal
turmoil occurring within their own lives. We have read of
attacks being carried out in family restaurant chains, such
as McDonalds, in U.S. post offices and in other government
buildings, in hospitals, and even within the Public School
System.
For example, on January 25, 1993, a lone gunman opened fire
on employees as they arrived for work at the CIA, (Central
Intelligence Agency), Headquarters in Langley, Virginia,
U.S.A.. Two people were killed as a result of the attack,
and three others were wounded. About three and half years
later, a pipe bomb exploded in Centennial Park outside of
the Olympic Village in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A.. That attack
resulted in the death of one bystander and had the potential
for killing many more. Following are four more recent
reports from CNN regarding deadly incidents which occurred
at a Xerox plant in Honolulu, Hawaii, at a boat repair
facility in Seattle, Washington, at a church in Fort Worth,
Texas, and at a hospital in California:

Suspect in Honolulu Shooting Spree Faces First-Degree Murder
The Xerox Corp. warehouse where police say an employee shot
and killed seven co-workers was expected to be open for
business on Wednesday, with counselors available for shocked
and grieving staff. The suspect, identified as 40-year-old
Bryan Uyesugi, who joined Xerox 15 years ago, surrendered on
Tuesday after an armed standoff with police. Police said he
would be charged with first-degree murder. It was the worst
mass killing in Hawaii, a state with one of the lowest
murder rates in the nation.

Massive Manhunt Under Way For Seattle Gunman
A massive dragnet remains in effect in Seattle, as police
use helicopters and dogs to search for a gunman who killed
two people and left two others wounded in a deadly rampage
at a boat repair company. The gunman, wearing camouflage
clothing and sunglasses, calmly walked in and shot four
employees at the company without saying a word, then fled
the scene, police said. The attack came a day after seven
people were killed in a shooting in Hawaii.
. . .
Church Gunman Kills 7, Self, In Texas
FORT WORTH, Texas (CNN) -- Investigators early Thursday were
trying to identify the black-clad gunman who killed seven
people and himself at a Fort Worth church Wednesday night.
The killer and six of his victims remained inside Wedgwood
Baptist Church, and a seventh victim died at a Fort Worth
hospital, police said. Investigators closed the church to
check for explosives.
The man's identity and motive remained unknown early
Thursday. Police described the killer only as a slender
white man in his mid-20s or 30s, dressed entirely in black.
He shot himself in the head at the end of his spree, Mendoza
said.
In addition to those killed, another seven were wounded, and
some of those were reported in critical condition late
Wednesday. The wounded included at least four teens, two
boys and two girls, and a 12-year-old boy. Another five
teens were unaccounted for early Thursday.
The attack came about a half-hour after the beginning of a
prayer service and annual youth rally called "See You at the
Pole," at which teens gather at a flagpole and pray for
friends, families and nations. The rally attracted teens
from across the area, police said.
. . .
Three Employees Killed At Hospital
ANAHEIM, California (AP) -- A gunman said to have been
angered by his mother's death stormed into a hospital
Tuesday and opened fire, authorities said, killing three
employees. Police said the rampage ended when the suspect,
identified as Dung Trinh, 43, was grabbed by people inside
the hospital and held until police arrived. A gun was
recovered. Trinh was apparently angry at the West Anaheim
Medical Center over the death of his mother at another
hospital earlier that day, authorities said. Mot Trinh, 72,
had been treated at West Anaheim Medical Center in June for
an undisclosed illness. She was taken to Anaheim Memorial
West Hospital early Tuesday and died about five hours later.
After her death at about 10:30 a.m., police Lt. Steven
Walker said Trinh drove a few blocks to West Anaheim Medical
Center. "Suspect Trinh, armed with a handgun, opened fire,
killing three victims," Walker said.

Of course, out of all of these insane attacks carried out by
enraged American citizens, the most deadly one occurred on
the morning of April 19, 1995, when a massive truck bomb
exploded outside of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma, U.S.A.. This massive explosion resulted in
the untimely death of one hundred and sixty-eight persons,
and hundreds more were wounded. To this day, rumours abound
amongst conspiracy theorists regarding whether or not the
accused, Timothy McVeigh, who has since been sentenced to
death, and his accomplice, Terry Nichols, who has received a
life sentence thus far, really acted alone, or if they might
have just been scapegoats for a much larger conspiracy
against the American government. As I mentioned earlier, we
would all be wise to not blindly accept the twisted truths
which are spoon-fed to the population at large by the
government's propaganda organ, the mass media.
Aside from the lethal 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah
Federal Building, undoubtedly, the incidents which have
shocked the American public the most, are those which have
occurred within the 'sacred' American Public School System,
such as the March 1999 shooting at Columbine High School in
Littleton, Colorado, U.S.A.. While I have employed the use
of the word 'sacred', please understand that I do not mean
holy to Christians, but rather sacred to the high priests of
higher learning, who subtly fill the hearts and minds of our
Christian children with their blasphemous lies concerning
EVILution and other false scientific distortions; who teach
our Christian children that gay and lesbian relationships
are acceptable forms of human behaviour; who persuade our
Christian children to doubt and passively rebel against
their very own parents, and who basically accuse God of
being a liar, and His Word a lie, because He, and it, are
contrary to their satanic teachings.
Being as I discuss this same topic at length in the article
'Plight Of The Children', I will forego discussing it in
detail here; however, I would like to provide you with a
chronological list of the growing number of violent and
bloody terrorist acts being committed by obviously unstable
American teenagers, since the last quarter of 1997. These
heinous and pre-meditated crimes have sadly resulted in the
pre-mature deaths of several dozen teachers and students:
Oct. 1, 1997 - Luke Woodham, then age seventeen, and an
eleventh grade student at Pearl High School in Pearl,
Mississippi, opened fire on his classmates with a deer
rifle. He killed his former girlfriend, Christina Menefee,
and Lydia Dew, a girl whom he had taken to the prom the
previous year. Seven others were wounded. Woodham had
already bludgeoned, stabbed and killed his mother, Mary
Woodham, age fifty, before he left for school.
Dec. 1, 1997 - Michael Carneal, then age fourteen, and a
student at Heath High School in Paducah, Kentucky, shot and
killed three female classmates, Kayce Steger, Jessica James
and Nicole Hadley, and injured five others during a
before-school prayer meeting.
Mar. 24, 1998 - Mitchell Johnson, then age thirteen, and his
cousin, Andrew Golden, then age eleven, ambushed their
fellow classmates as they exited Westside Middle School near
Jonesboro, Arkansas, following a false fire alarm. Four
students and a teacher were killed in that incident, and ten
others were injured.
Apr. 24, 1998 - An unnamed fourteen year old eighth grade
student at J.W. Parker Middle School in northwestern
Pennsylvania fatally shot a teacher and wounded two students
at an eighth-grade dance. He was later apprehended by the
owner of the dance hall as he fled on foot.
Apr. 28, 1998 - Two teenagers were shot and killed, and a
third was wounded while playing basketball at Philadelphia
Elementary School in Pomona, California, about forty miles
east of Los Angeles. The names and ages of the killer and
the victims aren't available.
May 20, 1998 - Jacob Davis, an eighteen year old senior, and
football player at a high school in Fayetteville, Tennessee,
shot and killed fellow teammate, eighteen year old Nicholas
Creason, in the school's parking lot.
May 20, 1998 - Kipland Kinkel, age fifteen, and a student at
Thurston High School in Springfield, Oregon, fired fifty-one
rounds from a semi-automatic rifle and two handguns. Two of
his fellow students, Mikael Nickolauson and Benjamin A.
Walker, were killed in the school's cafeteria, and another
twenty-two were injured before Kinkel was wrestled to the
ground by two other students and disarmed. Kinkel is also
accused of murdering his parents, William and Faith Kinkel,
the day before the shootings. Police found five bombs, a
hand grenade and a howitzer shell casing stashed under his
home.
Apr. 20, 1999 - Two students dressed in black trench coats,
eighteen year old Eric Harris, and seventeen year old Dylan
Klebold, set off pipe bombs, threw grenades, and selectively
opened fire on fellow students at Columbine High School in
Littleton, Colorado, a suburb located to the southwest of
Denver. Beginning their cold-blooded killing spree in the
school's first-floor cafteria, the pair continued firing at
students in the hallways as they made their way up to the
second-floor library. Witnesses claim that the deadly pair
laughed and hooted aloud as they shot their victims at close
range. They finally took their own lives in the library. In
all, fifteen people lost their lives, including students and
faculty members. In addition, dozens more were injured
before the deadly assault ended.
May 20, 1999 - Thomas Solomon Jr., a fifteen year old
sophomore at Heritage High School, located in Conyers,
Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta, opened fire on his fellow
students with a .22-caliber rifle. Six classmates were
wounded, none of them fatally, in the attempted massacre.
The student later surrendered in tears to the assistant
principle after a failed attempt at committing suicide with
a handgun.
Dec 6, 1999 - Thirteen year old Seth Trickey, a student at
Fort Gibson Middle School, located near Muskogee, Oklahoma,
wounded four classmates with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun.
Perhaps one of the most shocking things about some of these
shootings by high school teens, is that they occurred in
middle and upper class communities where both parents and
residents alike were of the mistaken belief that such things
could never possibly happen. Not only that, but in some
cases, the student killers were in good standing with their
schools, and were above suspicion. Sadly, they did happen.
Who can doubt then, that spiritually-speaking, something is
seriously wrong with the United States of America, just as
there is something seriously wrong with the entire world?
Truly then, precisely as the Lord prophesied so long ago, in
our current century, we are a planet which is clearly at war
with itself. From international wars involving many nations,
to bilateral wars and border skirmishes, to oppressed ethnic
groups rising up against their powerful overseers, to deadly
terrorist attacks carried out by Islamic fundamentalists and
other interest groups, to international and local drug wars,
to invisible economic wars to suppress and enslave nations,
to senseless shootings and killings by obviously unstable
individuals, to inner city violence and gang wars, and even
to wars within our very own families between parents and
children, Jesus's words have indeed been fulfilled to the
letter. Concerning wars between family members due to our
Christian faith, consider the following revelatory verses
prophesied by Jesus Himself:
"And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He
that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of
me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not
worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and
followeth after me, is not worthy of me."
Matthew 10:36-38, KJV
"Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the
father the son; and children shall rise up against their
parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. And ye
shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that
shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."
Mark 13:12-13, KJV
"Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell
you, Nay; but rather division: For from henceforth there
shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and
two against three. The father shall be divided against the
son, and the son against the father; the mother against the
daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in
law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law
against her mother in law." Luke 12:51-53, KJV
So again, this present generation is one which is literally
poisoned and filled with anger, rage, and wrath. If left
unchecked, simple anger can lead to violent rage, and rage
can lead to venting one's wrath upon others. All of these
things are clearly not of the Lord; for as the Apostle Paul
tells us, we should not let a day pass, we should not let
the sun go down, without resolving any issues which may
otherwise result in a root of anger or bitterness growing in
our hearts, which will poison our souls. Rather than resort
to violence and force in order to resolve our problems and
get our way, we must all learn to exercise a certain degree
of love, patience, forgiveness and diplomacy; for the latter
are creative and productive, while the former can only be
destructive. Consider the following verses:
"A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir
up anger...A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is
slow to anger appeaseth strife." Proverbs 15:1, 18, KJV
"He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he
that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city."
Proverbs 16:32, KJV
"The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his
glory to pass over a transgression." Proverbs 19:11, KJV
"...let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give
place to the devil...Let all bitterness, and wrath, and
anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you,
with all malice: And be ye kind one to another,
tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for
Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
Ephesians 4:26b-27, 31-32, KJV
"But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice,
blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth."
Colossians 3:8, KJV
"Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no
man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man fail
of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing
up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;"
Hebrews 12:14-15, KJV
It is interesting to note that in describing these wars of
the Endtime, the Lord specifically said 'For nation shall
rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom', as if He
was denoting a difference between the two. The word 'nation'
is derived from the Greek word 'ethnos'. While this word is
often used to refer to non-Jewish, or Gentile nations of the
Earth which do not worship the God of Israel, in its purest
form, it refers to those people who belong to a certain
ethnic group or tribe. At the same time, the word 'kingdom'
is derived from the Greek word 'basileia', which is used to
refer to either actual royal power and authority, or else to
the actual kingdom and territory which is ruled by a king.
If we look at our world today, it is very easy to see how
the definitions of these two words perfectly describe the
world's geo-political makeup. We have some Gentile nations
which are ruled by presidents and prime ministers, while
others are ruled by kings and queens. Not only that, but in
ancient times, a nation could be comprised of a number of
different smaller kingdoms which all made up a part of the
whole. Such was the case with the nation of Israel; which
under the leadership of Joshua and Caleb, was divided
between the descendants of the twelve Patriarchs, that is,
the twelve sons of Jacob, so that in essence, Israel was
actually twelve nations within a nation.
We find the very same kind of geographical divisions
occurring today. For example, in some countries, a nation is
divided into different states, such as in the United States
of America, and the Republic of Mexico; which in Spanish is
known as 'Los Estados Unidos Mexicanos', or 'The United
Mexican States'. In other countries, the land is divided up
into different provinces, such as in Canada and France; and
yet in others, such as in Japan, the country is divided up
into prefectures. At the same time, we also have large land
masses, known as continents, which are divided up into
different countries which each contain their own ethnic
groups, like Europe, Asia, Africa and South America.
So, if we consider the actual literal meaning of the Lord's
prophecy, based upon the information I have now shared with
you, we see that it was a very precise prediction which has
indeed been fulfilled; because not only have nations risen
up against nations, but individual ethnic groups have risen
up against each other, as well as against the tyrannical
rulers of the countries within which they find themselves.
Consider the example of the Kurds, who are currently spread
out between Turkey, Iraq and Iran; or the Palestinians who
primarily occupy Jordan, but who are fighting for a homeland
in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip; or the current strife
between the Muslim Kosovar Albanians and the Christian
Serbs; or the Muslim rebels in Chechnya and Dagestan who are
now at war against the Russian government; and on and on it
goes.
Just as the Lord made mention of the prophecies of Daniel in
His Endtime sermon found in the twenty-fourth chapter of the
Gospel of Matthew, where He speaks of the Abomination of
Desolation and its related events, it has occurred to me
that perhaps when He speaks of nation rising against nation,
and kingdom against kingdom, He may also have been referring
to another prophecy written by Daniel in one of his earlier
chapters. Consider the following verse which I also discuss
in such articles as 'The Kings Of The North And The South':
"And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they
shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall
not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with
clay." Daniel 2:43, KJV
While I suggest in other articles that this verse might be
referring to the different forms of government which exist
in our world today which are at odds with each other, such
as democracies and dictatorships, or capitalist countries
and communist countries, perhaps we should now expand that
definition, by suggesting that it may also rightly describe
the civil unrest, racial wars and 'ethnic cleansing' we see
occurring between such groups as I mentioned a moment ago.
One thing is for certain; the sea and the waves, that is,
the people and the nations of the world, are indeed roaring
against each other like they have never done before; and
someday soon, some of them will unite under the Beast and
roar against God Himself, and blaspheme His Name, as I
explain in other Endtime articles. So it is clear then that
the wicked people of the world are not at rest. Everywhere
we look, there is some degree of war and civil unrest. The
symbolic waves of the worldwide sea are truly roaring.
Consider the following revelatory verses which support this
allegory:
"There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked."
Isaiah 48:22, KJV
"But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot
rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace,
saith my God, to the wicked." Isaiah 57:20-21, KJV
"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and
in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with
perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;"
Luke 21:25, KJV
"And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where
the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations,
and tongues." Revelation 17:15, KJV
While on a family level, part of this turmoil is due to some
members being willing to contend for their Christian faith,
while other members actively fight against them, Jesus and
the Apostle James also inform us that the basic cause of all
wars and human turmoil, are nothing less than the sins of
selfishness and greed, lust, pride and jealousy; which are
all signs of an absence of real love in the world. I discuss
this same topic in the article 'Selfishness: A Sign Of The
Endtime?'. Consider the following verses:
"And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall
wax cold." Matthew 24:12, KJV
"From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they
not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye
lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot
obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask
not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye
may consume it upon your lusts. Ye adulterers and
adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world
is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of
the world is the enemy of God. Do ye think that the
scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us
lusteth to envy? But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he
saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the
humble. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the
devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:1-7, KJV
One thing is for certain; as James clearly states, Satan is
indeed the author of war and confusion; and he is definitely
running wild in the world at this current time; igniting
wars and causing bloodshed wherever he goes. Thank God that
the Bible tells us that in a time not too distant from now,
our adversary, Satan, will be temporarily prevented from
ravaging the Earth during the glorious Millennial Reign of
Jesus Christ and His Resurrected Saints; as we see in these
verses found in the Book of Revelation:
"And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of
the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he
laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the
Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And cast
him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal
upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till
the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he
must be loosed a little season." Revelation 20:1-3, KJV
Having now closely examined the first part of Jesus' Endtime
prophecy concerning 'wars and rumours of wars', let us move
on now and discuss another part of His prophecy. As the Lord
said, 'there shall be...earthquakes, in divers places'. The
phrase 'in divers' is derived from the Greek word 'kata',
and means throughout. In other words, there will be temblors
in many different regions of the world. Now, it has occurred
to me that some scoffers and unbelievers are bound to say
that there have always been wars on the Earth, and there
have always been earthquakes as well. That being the case,
why then do Christians find such significance in the Lord's
words? If I were a child of the world, who understood very
little of the Bible's contents, I would have to agree with
such people; because on the surface, Jesus' words do not
appear to have that much significance; because there indeed
always have been wars and earthquakes.
However, I am not a blind child of the world; and because I
believe that the Lord, by His Spirit, has given me a certain
degree of understanding regarding some of these issues, I am
of the opinion that what is truly intended by our Lord's
words, is a little deeper than what appears on the surface.
In other words, for Jesus' words to be a true prophecy, they
would have to be prophesying something which would be above
and beyond the norm, so that it would stand out and be
recognized by those people who have a discerning heart. To
say it more plainly, I believe that Jesus really meant for
us to understand that the wars, earthquakes, and other signs
He gave us regarding the Endtime, would be much greater in
their numbers, much greater in size, scope and intensity,
and much more destructive in nature, than in all previous
years since the world began.
In the case of wars, as we have already clearly seen, wars,
skirmishes and civil unrest have heavily marked this century
since the very beginning. Not only that, but it is only in
this century, that we have seen wars fought which have been
truly worldwide in scope; even to where the warring nations
are separated by literally thousands of miles of ocean. To
add to this fact, it is only in this current century that it
has become possible to kill literally tens of thousands, or
even millions of people, by the mere pressing of a button!
Whereas in times past such a feat would require days, weeks,
months, or even years to accomplish, some evil governments
of the world can now do the very same thing in less than an
hour! Need I remind you of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Or need I
mention that deadly chemical and biological warfare did not
sear the public conscience until the war in Southeast Asia
in the 1960's and early 1970's, when napalm was used to
destroy untold acres of farmlands and jungle, in order to
expose the Viet Cong? In my mind then, Jesus' prophecy
regarding wars and rumours of wars has truly come to pass.
So what about earthquakes? Can the same be said of them? As
you will see by the time you have completed reading this
rather lengthy section of our series, I believe that we can
also answer in the affirmative. Unlike man's wars, the onset
of which are rather predictable, earthquakes strike without
warning, and depending upon their magnitude, they can be
extremely devasting. Consider the following excerpts from an
October 1999 AsiaWeek report regarding the Kobe earthquake:
----- Begin Quote -----
Beyond The Aftershocks
Kobe Shows Its Mettle Following Its Quake
At 5:46 a.m. on Jan. 17, 1995, an earthquake of magnitude
7.2 on the Richter scale ripped through the Japanese city of
Kobe. Over 6,400 people were killed and 40,000 were injured
in the last major East Asian quake prior to the Taiwan
disaster. More than 250,000 buildings were destroyed or
damaged in the city and environs. The transportation system
was shattered, the economy crippled. But the city, indeed
the entire nation, mobilized to rebuild Kobe. Within three
months, Shinkansen bullet trains cruised smoothly into Kobe
station, and in five months the dense local rail network was
running as well.
----- End Of Quote -----
Upon performing a study of the Holy Scriptures, we discover
that there are quite a few references found throughout the
Bible, which mention great earthquakes occurring as a result
of the Lord's wrathful judgments upon wicked men. Due to the
oft times symbolic nature of the Scriptures, sometimes it is
difficult to know when an earthquake is meant to be taken
literally, and when it should be understood in a figurative
manner. Not only that, but it is also difficult to determine
at times, when the Prophet is referring to an event of the
past, and when he is referring to one of the future.
Consider the following series of verses, found in the Old
Testament, which describe these many events:
"But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her
mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto
them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall
understand that these men have provoked the LORD. And it
came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these
words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and
their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah,
and all their goods." Numbers 16:30-32, KJV
"And there was trembling in the host, in the field, and
among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they
also trembled, and the earth quaked: so it was a very great
trembling." 1 Samuel 14:15, KJV
"And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the
LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and
strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the
rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and
after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the
earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD
was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small
voice." 1 Kings 19:11-12, KJV
As we continue our discussion in part five, I'll be sharing
some more examples from both the Old and the New Testaments
regarding earthquakes. In addition, we will be examining
such topics as the Lord's triumphant Return upon the Mount
of Olives, the Brook of Kidron, Gethsemane and the Mount of
Olives, and similarites between the Valley of Jehoshaphat,
also known as the Valley of Decision, and the Valley of
Megiddo. I trust that you will join me.
