ARMAGEDDONS CRESCENDO

ARMAGEDDONS CRESCENDO

"The crisis will be reached when the hitherto upholders of the law shall become violators of the law"

It is the contention of this writer that we are now living through events that were precisely and succinctly described in the forward of the book titled “The Battle of Armageddon” published in 1889 by Pastor Charles Taze Russell.

His forward should be viewed in light of present day events. We quote it below and insert our own links and comments, forming a compelling series of events of our own recent history.

As A PRELUDE — the forward is from book four in a series. TRUE understanding comes with reading all these volumes. Suffice to say that when the Bible talks about “Armageddon” it’s symbolic, not literal. Instead of a great nuclear war between two nations i.e. Russia vs. America, this “battle” would be political and mainly a war of information involving all people who are styled “The LORD’S GREAT ARMY”.

This “army” would be composed of all classes of people on many sides, and would serve to tear down the present evil “world” or society in a terrible time of Anarchy mirroring the French Revolution, but which ultimately clears the way for Messiah’s Kingdom to assume power and reign.

We quote from Pastor Russell as follows: [with our comments and supporting links in brackets]

“Many noble people in this great army will assume an attitude quite contrary to their preference. For a time the wheels of liberty and progress will be turned backward, and mediaeval restraints will be considered necessary for self-preservation for the maintenance of the present order of things and for the prevention of the new order which God has decreed, the due time for which is at hand. …”

“…Even those who may be God’s people do not stop to consider whether it is His will that things should continue as they have been for the past six thousand years. The Bible says that such is not God’s will, but that there is to be a great overturning, that a new order is coming in.

For a brief time, as we understand the Scriptures, these combined forces of Armageddon will triumph. Free speech, free mails, and other liberties which have come to be the very breath of the masses in our day, will be ruthlessly shut off on the plea of necessity, the glory of God, the commands of the Church, etc. …”

[Pastor Russell warned it would be the “trusts and syndicalists” that would ignite the final outburst. Written in 1889 but transposed to our day, these “forces” are the globalists who are attempting to enforce their version of world order against an unwilling populace. See “TRUMP v. Globalism”.

Read the next paragraph against a modern backdrop: thousands of “new media” journalists like Infowars.com who are unwilling to be silenced by the modern media monopoly, greatly annoying the powers that be as we read...]

“…The safety-valve will be sat upon, and thus will cease to annoy earth’s kings with the sound of escaping steam; and all will seem to be serene — until the great social explosion described in the Revelation as an earthquake will take place. In symbolic language an earthquake signifies social revolution, and the Scriptural declaration is that none like it ever before occurred. (Rev. 16:18,19) See our Lord’s reference to it in Matt. 24:21.

The Lord’s Great Army

At this juncture, the Scriptures show, Divine Power will step forward, and God will gather the marshaled hosts to Armageddon — to the Mount of Destruction. (Rev. 16:16) The very thing which they sought to avert by their union, federation, etc., will be the very thing that they will hasten. Other Scriptures tell us that God will be represented by Messiah, and that He will be on the side of the masses. “At that time shall Michael [the Godlike One — Messiah] stand up.” (Dan. 12:1) He will assume authority. He will take possession of His Kingdom in a manner little looked for by many of those who erroneously have been claiming to be His Kingdom, and authorized by Him to reign in His name and in His stead…

…As an earthly king does not hold himself responsible for the moral character of each soldier who fights his battles, so the Lord does not vouch for the moral character of all who enlist and fight on His side of any question. His servants they are to whom they render service, whatever the motive or object prompting.

The same principle will apply in the coming Battle of Armageddon. God’s side of that battle will be the people’s side; and that very nondescript host, the people, will be pitted at the beginning of the battle. Anarchists, Socialists, and hot-headed radicals of every school of reason and unreason, will be in the forefront of that battle. He who has any knowledge of army life knows that a great army is composed of all classes.

The masses will be restless under their restraints, but will be conscious of their weakness as compared with the kings and princes, financial, social, religious and political, who will then hold sway. …”

[In Pastor Russell’s day these people were literal kings that he predicted would lose their crowns in 1914 and it came to pass exactly at the time he forecasted.

Today we surmise that the modern kings and princes are evident: they are those elites in government and business who are imposing a socialist, globalist agenda, enforcing an atheistic form of government upon the masses.]

“…The majority of the poor and the middle class prefer peace at almost any price. The masses have no sympathy with anarchy. They realize truly that the worst form of government is better than none. The masses will seek relief through the ballot and the peaceful readjustment of earth’s affairs for the elimination of evil, for the placing of monopolies and utilities and the supplies of nature in the hands of the people for the public good.

[SEE TRUMP vs. CLINTON November 8, 2016. The people voted SPECIFICALLY for the above: The Democratic candidate is allegedly involved in almost unspeakable crimes. She cheated in the debates. She looted the nation of Haiti. She is currently under investigation by the FBI and the Justice Department. The PEOPLE were aware of her “evil” and of her role in creating and supporting globalist monopolies favorable to her literal and personal plundering of earth’s resources or “supplies of nature”.]

“The crisis will be reached when the hitherto upholders of the law shall become violators of the law and resisters of the will of the majority as expressed by the ballot. Fear for the future will goad the well-meaning masses to desperation, and anarchy will result when Socialism fails.”

[HERE is a list of links showing that the aforementioned, “the hitherto (former) upholders of the law” are the governments under the Clintons and Obama and their governmental wings including the Justice Department and the FBI. (see links below.) Their anarchistic (lawless) response to the election of Donald J. Trump, an outsider, precisely fulfills the conditions Pastor Russell expected.

“The Lord’s saints are not to be in this battle at all. God’s consecrated people, longing at heart for Messiah’s Kingdom and the glorious Year of Jubilee and Restitution which it will inaugurate, will patiently abide the Lord’s time, and wait unmurmuringly for it. Their lamps trimmed and burning, they will not be in darkness respecting the momentous events of the impending battle; but they will be of good courage, knowing the outcome portrayed in the “more sure word of prophecy,” to which they have done well to “take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the Day dawn.” 2 Pet. 1:19"

Is Trump vs. Globalism “The Battle of Armageddon”?

This is the MANNA for JUNE 4

That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ-1 Pet. 1: 7.

It is your faith that is on trial now. In the calmer days when the sun of favor shone brightly upon you, you were quietly laying the foundation of a knowledge of the Truth, and rearing the superstructure of Christian character. Now you are in the furnace to be proved; summon therefore all your courage; fortify your patience; nerve yourself to endurance; hold fast to your hope; call to mind the promises, they are still yours; and "cast not away your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward." "In quietness and confidence shall be your strength." "Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him," and faith has gained her victory-Z '95, 135 (R 1822).

As the assayist in putting the gold ore into the fiery crucible seeks not its destruction, but its separation from the dross and its refining, so God gives us fiery experiences, not to destroy our faith, but to separate from it the dross of sin, error, selfishness and worldliness, and to make it in every way valuable, which will be manifested as worthy of praise, honor and glory at our Lord's revelation-during His Epiphany-P '36, 78.

Parallel passages: 1 Chron. 29: 17; Psa. 26: 2; 81: 7; Matt. 13: 19-22; 2 Thes. 1: 3-5; Heb. 6: 13, 18; Jas. 1: 3, 12; Heb. 11: 7, 17-19, 25, 29, 30, 32-39; Job 1; 2; Ezra 8: 22; Matt. 8: 23-27; 15: 21-28; 9: 28; 14: 25-33.

Governments Are Already Melting Like Wax

Governments Are Already Melting Like Wax

will be "shaken" by revolutions, and ultimately "carried into the midst of the sea"—lost utterly in anarchy

THE CONDITIONS OF THIS BATTLE UNPRECEDENTED

Pastor Charles Taze Russell "The Battle of Armageddon" Study XI The Battle of the Great Day pg. 551

According to the predictions of the prophets the conditions of this battle will be without historic precedent. As already suggested, this final struggle is graphically portrayed in symbols in the forty-sixth Psalm (Compare also Ps. 97: 2-6; Is. 24: 19-21; 2 Pet. 3: 10). The hills (the less high, less autocratic governments) are already melting like wax; they still retain their form, but as the earth (society) gets hot they yield to its requirements, little by little coming down to the level of popular demand. Great Britain is a good illustration of this class. High mountains (representing autocratic governments) will be "shaken" by revolutions, and ultimately "carried into the midst of the sea"—lost utterly in anarchy. Already "the sea and the waves roar" against the bulwarks of the present social system: ere long the earth (the present social structure) will reel and totter as a drunken man, vainly endeavoring to right itself, maintain a footing and reestablish itself: by and by it will be utterly "removed," to give place to the "new earth" (the new social order) wherein righteousness, justice, will prevail.

It will be impossible to reestablish the present order, (1) because it has evidently outlived its usefulness, and is inequitable under present conditions; (2) because of the general diffusion of secular knowledge; (3) because the discovery that priestcraft has long blinded and fettered the masses with error and fear will lead to a general disrespect for all religious claims and teachings as of a piece with the bared frauds; (4) because religious people in general, not seeing that God's time has come for a change of dispensation, will ignore reason, logic, justice and Scripture in defending the present order of things.

It will be of little effect then that the ecclesiastical heavens (the religious powers, Papal and Protestant) will have rolled together as a scroll (Is. 34: 4; Rev. 6: 14). The combined religious power of Christendom will be utterly futile against the rising tide of anarchy when the dread crisis is reached. Before that great army "all the host of heaven [nominal church] shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll [the two bodies which constitute the ecclesiastical heavens, viz., Papacy and Protestantism, as the two distinct ends of the scroll are even now rapidly approaching each other, rolling together, as we have shown]; and all their host shall fall down [fall off, drop out; not all at once, but gradually, yet rapidly] as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree" (Is. 34: 4); and finally these "heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements [of which they are composed] shall melt with fervent heat"—2 Pet. 3: 12.

"While they be folden together as thorns [for Protestantism and the Papacy can never perfectly assimilate; each will be a thorn in the other's side], and while they are drunken as drunkards [intoxicated with the spirit of the world], they shall be devoured [they shall be over-whelmed in the great tribulation, and, as religious systems, be utterly destroyed] as stubble fully dry"; for the Lord "will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time." Blessed promise! "For behold, the day cometh that shall burn as an oven: and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch [for further development]"—Nah. 1: 9, 10; Mal. 4: 1.

"THE TIME OF JACOB'S TROUBLE."

While the trouble and distress of this day of the Lord will be first and specially on Christendom, and eventually on all nations, the final blast, we are informed by the Prophet Ezekiel (38: 8-12), will be upon the people of Israel regathered in Palestine. The prophet seems to indicate a much larger gathering of Israel to Palestine within this harvest period than has yet taken place. He represents them as gathered there out of the nations in great numbers, and, with considerable wealth, inhabiting the formerly desolate places; and all of them dwelling safely at the time when the rest of the world is in its wildest commotion—Ezek. 38: 11, 12.

This is the MANNA for JUNE 3

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge. There is no speech, there are no words, their voice is not heard; but their melody extendeth through all the earth, and to the end of the world their words-Psa. 19: 1-4, Leeser.
The magnificent pageantry of the heavens daily and nightly should elicit our praise and adoration, and should inspire in our hearts holy and reverent devotion. Let the noiseless activity, the perfect obedience to Divine law, and the blessed shining of the heavenly hosts, impress their wholesome lessons upon us-of zealous activity without commotion or ostentation; of perfect obedience to the will of Him who doeth all things well, who is too wise to err and too good to be unkind; and of letting the glory of the Lord which has illuminated us shine from us in turn upon every beholder-Z '95, 121 (R 1811).

Not only do all the various objects and arrangements of nature manifest the Lord's attributes to our attentive minds, but we find that these objects and arrangements are used to symbolize things that manifest His attributes and Plan. Thus the new heavens will make known His character in the coming Age. The nights with their evils symbolize various times with the evils suffered therein by various evil classes, especially in the Epiphany. The days symbolize the times of dispensational blessings, the preceding ones shadowing forth the following ones, e.g., as in the harvests and parallel dispensations-P '26, 76.

Parallel passages: Gen. 1: 1-2: 7; Isa. 40: 26; Job 9: 8, 9; 12: 7-9; 28: 23-26; 37: 16, 18; 38: 4, 7-10; Psa. 8: 3-9; 104: 2-6, 24; 136: 5-9; Jer. 51: 15, 16; Rom. 1: 19, 20; Heb. 11: 3, 10.

The French Revolution: The Retributive Character of the Coming Trouble

The French Revolution: The Retributive Character of the Coming Trouble

"utter extermination with everything established, as to abolish the common forms of address and salutation"

Paul S.L. Johnson - Some Shorter Types of Parousia Messenger - E09 413

"Studying various crises in human history, he recognized the presence in his day of similar, but more magnified conditions than those that marked such crises. E.g., the unmanageable crisis that introduced the French Revolution he found exhibited conditions similar to, but on a smaller scale than those which he saw about him; for he noted that just before the French Revolution religion was disparaged, authority was disobeyed, strife marked the relations of capital and labor, class hatred abounded, bread riots occurred, deep-seated dissatisfaction prevailed, great social inequalities were in vogue, agitations for radical changes were carried on, safety in flight was sought by close observers of the trend of things, reformers offered their panaceas and optimists saw everything evolving to better conditions. These very things that indicated the crisis leading up to the storm of the French Revolution, which broke with devastating effect, he saw on all hands, but in greatly magnified forms. He therefore reported these and showed that they foreshadowed the Time of Trouble. Such passages as Luke 21: 26; Is. 29: 14; etc., he recognized as forecasting this crisis. Thus he saw many secular signs presaging the coming trouble and faithfully reported the matter...

Pastor C.T. Russell - The Battle of Armageddon - The Battle of the Great Day pg 536

The retributive character of the great tribulation on fleshly Israel in the harvest of the Jewish age was very marked; so also was that of the French Revolution; and so it will be manifest in the present distress when the climax is reached. The remarks of Mr. Thomas H. Gill, in his
work, The Papal Drama, referring to the retributive character of the French Revolution, suggest also the retributive character of the coming trouble upon Christendom as a whole. He says:

"The more deeply the French Revolution is considered, the more manifest is its preeminence above all the strange and terrible things that have come to pass. … Never has the world witnessed so exact and sublime a piece of retribution. … If it inflicted enormous evil, it presupposed and overthrew enormous evil. … In a country where every ancient institution and every time-honored custom disappeared in a moment; where the whole social and political system went down before the first stroke; where monarchy, nobility and church were swept away almost without resistance, the whole framework of the state must have been rotten: royalty, aristocracy and priesthood must have grievously sinned. Where the good things of this world—birth, rank, wealth, fine clothes and elegant manners—became worldly perils, and worldly disadvantages for a time, rank, birth and riches must have been frightfully abused.

"The nation which abolished and proscribed Christianity, which dethroned religion in favor of reason, and enthroned the new goddess at Notre Dame in the person of a harlot, must needs have been afflicted by a very unreasonable and very corrupt form of Christianity. The people that waged a war of such utter extermination with everything established, as to abolish the common forms of address and salutation, and the common mode of reckoning time, that abhorred 'you' as a sin, and shrank from 'monsieur' as an abomination, that turned the weeks into decades, and would know the old months no more, must surely have had good reason to hate those old ways from which it pushed its departure into such minute and absurd extravagance.

"The demolished halls of the aristocracy, the rifled sepulchres of royalty, the decapitated king and queen, the little dauphin sadly done to death, the beggared princes, the slaughtered priests and nobles, the sovereign guillotine, the republican marriages, the Meudon tannery, the couples tied together and thrown into the Loire, the gloves made of men's and women's skins: these things are most horrible; but they are withal eloquent of retribution: they bespeak … the awful hand of an avenging power. They bring to mind the horrible sins of that old France; the wretched peasants ground beneath the weight of imposts from which the rich and noble were free; visited ever and anon by cruel famines by reason of crushing taxes, unjust wars, and monstrous mis-government, and then hung up or shot down by twenties or fifties for just complaining of starvation: and all this for centuries! They call to remembrance the Protestants murdered by millions in the streets of Paris, tormented for years by military dragoons in Poitou and Beam, and hunted like wild beasts in the Cevennes; slaughtered and done to death by thousands and tens of thousands in many painful ways. …

"In no work of the French Revolution is this, its retributive character, more strikingly or solemnly apparent than in its dealings with the Roman Church and Papal power. It especially became France, which after so fierce a struggle had rejected the Reformation, and perpetuated such enormous crimes in the process of rejection, to turn its fury against that very Roman Church … to abolish Roman Catholic worship, to massacre multitudes of priests in the streets of her great towns, to hunt them down through her length and breadth, and to cast them by thousands upon a foreign shore, just as she had slaughtered, hunted down and driven into exile hundreds of thousands of Protestants; … to carry the war into the Papal territories, and to heap all sorts of woes and shames upon the defenseless Popedom. … The excesses of revolutionary France were not more the punishment than the direct result of the excesses of … Papal France. …

"In one of its aspects the Revolution may be described as a reaction against the excesses, spiritual and religious, of the Roman Catholic persecution of Protestantism. No sooner had the torrent burst forth than it dashed right against the Roman Church and Popedom. … The property of the Church was made over to the state; the French clergy sank … to a salaried body; monks and nuns were restored to the world, the property of their orders being confiscated; Protestants were raised to full religious freedom and political equality … Catholic religion was … abolished.

"Bonaparte unsheathed the sword of France against the helpless Pius VI. … Berthier marched upon Rome, set up a Roman Republic, and laid hands upon the Pope. The sovereign pontiff was borne away to the camp of infidels … from prison to prison, and was finally carried captive into France. Here … he breathed his last, at Valence, where his priests had been slain, where his power was broken, and his name and office were a mockery and a byword; … the rude soldiers … for ten years held to his lips a cup of … bitterness. … It was a sublime and perfect piece of retribution, which so amazed the world at the end of the eighteenth century; this proscription of the Romish Church by that very French nation that slaughtered myriads of Protestants at her bidding; this mournful end of the sovereign pontiff, in that very Dauphine so consecrated by the struggles of the Protestants, and near those Alpine valleys where the Waldenses had been so ruthlessly hunted down by French soldiers; this transformation of the 'States of the Church' into the 'Roman Republic'; and this overthrow of territorial Popedom by that very French nation, which, just one thousand years ago, had, under Pepin and Charlemagne, conferred these territories.

"Multitudes imagined that the Papacy was at the point of death, and asked, would Pius VI. be the last pontiff, and if the close of the eighteenth century would be signalized by the fall of the Papal dynasty. But the French Revolution was the beginning, and not the end of the judgment; France had but begun to execute the doom, a doom sure and inevitable, but long and lingering, to be diversified by many strange incidents, and now and then by a semblance of escape, a doom to be protracted through much pain."

We must expect that the approaching trouble will be no less bitter and severe than these two illustrations...

Vol 4 battle of Armageddon

[[Editors Note:  As Pastor Russell himself said, we would rather pass by thoughts of the prospect of these horrible things occurring in silence, were it not for the grand and wonderful hope of the Kingdom of Messiah being made known right on the heels of this event which is to be man's last experience with sin and disobedience before the Kingdom is set up.  It is our hope to forearm others with the Truth on all this.  RB]]

This is the MANNA for JUNE 2

I determined not to know any thing among you, save, Jesus Christ, and him crucified-1 Cor. 2: 2.
Our observation of those consecrated ones who have permitted other themes than "this gospel" to engross time and attention leads us to advise such to be very jealous in husbanding time and talent for the ministry of the Gospel, leaving all other subjects, however interesting, to others now, and to the future life for ourselves, when all knowledge shall be ours. Those who for any avoidable cause turn aside from the ministry of the true and only Gospel, we have invariably observed, are quickly turned out of the way or greatly hindered in their course toward the attaining of the Kingdom-Z '95, 116 (R 1811).
Christ Jesus and Him crucified signifies our Ransom and our Example. It therefore comprehends our justification and sanctification and is a brief summary of what Christ is to His followers. Our interest in one another as God's people should have this thought permeating all our relations with one another. We may profitably as fellow-disciples of Christ concentrate our attention upon this thought to the exclusion of all other things-P '32, 62.

Parallel passages: Gal. 6: 14; Phil. 3: 8, 13, 14; Acts 5: 30, 31, 42; 13: 23, 26-33; 16: 31; 17: 2, 3; 18: 5, 6; 19: 4; 20: 20, 21; 26: 22, 23; Rom. 5: 8-11; 1 Cor. 1: 17, 24, 30; 2: 3-8; 4: 1, 2; 3: 5-10; 2 Cor. 3: 3, 6; 4: 5; 6: 1.
