00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,960
Hello everyone, we want to welcome you once again to the podcast we are calling the Bible

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:10,960
Prophecy Master Class. In this fourth episode, we are continuing our deep dive into all of

3
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,600
the Bible's prophecies as they relate to the end times, beginning with a verse by verse

4
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:21,360
dissection of the 18th chapter of the Book of the Revelation. This is and will always be a study

5
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:27,920
rooted in a prophecy series written by Mr. Alvin Mitchell. And I, Erica, will be your host for this

6
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:34,240
episode. Let me remind you that our conviction here in the Bible Prophecy Master Class is such

7
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,120
that the road to Armageddon can be subdivided into at least three main broad categories.

8
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:45,360
Number one, the fall of Babylon the Great, which must and will occur first, per Revelation chapter

9
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:50,720
18. Number two, the rise and the global dominance of the Jews and Israel, which could occur

10
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:57,680
concurrent with the collapse of Babylon, or very quickly thereafter, per Ezekiel chapters 38 to 39.

11
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:03,680
And number three, God's systemic destruction of the earth, which will without question and without

12
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:09,600
fail begin some time after the collapse of Babylon, the rise of the Jews, in accord with God's plan to

13
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:14,960
rub His presence in the face of a world in rebellion by elevating them to the level of global prominence

14
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:20,320
and dominance over an unspecified period leading into the period of John's apocalypse, per

15
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:26,560
Revelation chapters 6 to 19. Thus, you might say that the thrust of our study will proceed

16
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:32,240
according to three primary subcategories of this class titled as follows, all detailed in three

17
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:38,720
books written by Mr. Mitchell, available soon on Amazon. Number one, Judgment Day, volume number

18
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:45,440
one, Prelude to Armageddon, part one, the United States of America in Bible Prophecy. This volume

19
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:50,960
will be the basis for the next 20 plus episodes of this podcast. Number two, Judgment Day,

20
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:57,360
volume number two, Prelude to Armageddon, part two, Israel catapulted to global superpower,

21
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:03,680
and number three, Judgment Day, volume number three, God versus Gods of Earth. In this fourth

22
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:09,200
episode, we will finish our verse by verse portion of the podcast by considering Revelation verses

23
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:15,440
4 to 24, where God identifies the offensive preoccupation of Babylon, calls for the nations

24
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:20,880
to collaborate so as to affect her downfall, and, we are shown the devastating impact that collapse

25
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:26,720
will have on them as well. We saw last time that the expression Babylon the Great here in chapter

26
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:32,640
18 and in chapter 17 is actually a, play on words, so that the two are in no wise related.

27
00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:38,960
That is, the entity in Revelation chapter 18 has nothing to do with Babylon the Great in chapter 17.

28
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:45,120
We also settled the fact that, where the historical record is concerned, there is only one foot that

29
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:50,960
can fit the shoes of Babylon the Great, so that she is neither past nor is she future, as rather,

30
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:57,280
she is in truth a very much present end times reality. With that bit of introduction behind us,

31
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,280
let us pray that God's will, will be done and that he will bless this study.

32
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,280
In Jesus name, Amen.
