This is the Bible News Prophecy Program, bringing you news and analysis of world events and the light of Bible Prophecy.
The following program is brought to you by the continuing Church of God.
Greetings, friends. This is Steve Dupuis for the Bible News Prophecy Program with Dr. Bob Teal, bringing you news and analysis of world events in light of Bible Prophecy.
Dr. Teal is Doomsday right around the corner.
Well, there's something called the Doomsday Clock, and it's maintained by the Science and Security Board or the Bolton of Atomic Scientists.
And it's been moved closer to midnight, certainly at the end of the world is closer.
I want to read a report about it from CVS.
Doomsday Clock moves to 85 seconds to midnight, closest point to catastrophe since its debut.
The Doomsday Clock, a metaphor of how close humanity is to self-analysis, was moved to 85 seconds to midnight on Tuesday, is closest point to catastrophe since the clock made its debut nearly 80 years ago.
The president of that organization said humanity has not made sufficient progress on the existential risks that endanger us all.
And the risks humanity faces, they say, from nuclear weapons, climate change and disruptive technologies are growing.
Every second counts and we're running out of time.
Now Michael Snyder also read about this.
He says that the people in our states of 342 million, they want to live to a ripe old age.
But as the world teeters on the brink of the unthinkable, scientists have just moved the Doomsday Clock closer to midnight than ever before.
When this year's announcement was made, the scientists are responsible for the Doomsday Clock specifically mentioned, United States, Russia and China.
At this moment, the 342 million people are living this nation, are working hard and trying to enjoy life.
But the truth is that the unthinkable is right around the corner in the clock is ticking.
I suppose living to a ripe old age is relative and depends on where you are living. What are your thoughts?
Well, I'm not believe that most Americans will quote live a ripe old age.
Great tribulation Jesus talked about in Matthew 24 is coming.
And United States itself is going to be defeated and conquered for passages in the Book of Daniel, the Book of tobacco, the Book of Isaiah.
Now this Doomsday Clock move as perhaps they're warning to or about Donald Trump, who spoke in terms at the world economic forum last week
that the globalists don't like. So I want to read something about that. This comes out of France, quote,
Doomsday Clock moves closer to midnight a year into Trump's term.
The Bolton atomic scientists set their Doomsday Clock, representing how the near humanities to catastrophe,
closer to never to midnight on Tuesday, citing accelerating winner takes off global competition and weakening nuclear reduction commitments.
The board members also voiced alarm over President Donald Trump.
The Bolton atomic scientists set this clock up the start of the Cold War.
They moved it closer than it was a year ago. This announcement comes a year into President Donald Trump's second term, in which he shattered norms, ordering unilateral attacks abroad,
deploying force at home and defiance of local authorities and withdrawing from a slew of international organizations.
Russia, China and the United States, and other major countries have, quote, become increasingly aggressive, had the serial and nationalistic said the statement announcing the partnership.
Trump has threatened to resume nuclear testing and is pushing a costly global dome missile defense system that would further militarize space.
Now, as far as this Doomsday Clock itself goes, back in 1984, the late past year general, the old world by church, I heard me W. Armstrong, he wrote about it when it was moved to three minutes before midnight.
So here's what he wrote about all this. He says, I'm writing from Australia, but wherever I am, it's needful to keep in touch with fast moving world conditions.
We all live in the same world, and the atomic scientists have now moved the Doomsday Clock one more minute forward, from four to only three minutes to midnight.
It says now, not long ago, if anyone mentioned the end of the world, people would have assumed him to be a crackpot Doomsday freak.
But today, the same as scientists and hesitations are talking about Doomsday and the end of the world.
He says, these sober men, they're not wild-eyed. Religious fanatics, they know what's actually happening.
They know how the evils this world are mounting. They know how the weapons of mass destruction have been produced.
They cannot blast all human life into extinction. And these sober leaders are worried.
One said, quote, I'm frankly scared, end quote.
They'll be wilder, confused and perplexed. They see no way to stop what seems to be inevitable.
This is because they don't see God in their thinking. They know not what God says about it. That's what Hiroshima said.
And the reality is, yeah, there's many events in the world that are worried scientists, and it's much worse than it was four decades ago.
And of course, most scientists and leaders don't know or they don't believe that God has a plan.
Dr. Diel, earlier you quoted these nuclear scientists as saying, concerns mount on nuclear weapons, climate change and disinformation.
Are they truly citing disinformation as a leading cause for the end of the world?
Not quite all of that sort of part of it, because they want people to leave a certain agenda now like it when people say something different.
But to a degree changes in the doomsday clock had been, in my opinion, mainly meant to send a political as opposed to a scientific message.
Now, the question is, are we closer to the end and answer it certainly.
Who would you back that up for us from the Bible?
Well, consider that in the Book of Romans, Romans chapter 13, starting verse 11, the Apostle Paul wrote,
and this do, knowing the time that it's now high time to awake out of sleep for our salvation is near than we first believe.
The night as far as spent the days at hand, therefore, let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the honor of light.
And we are certainly closer to the start of the Great Chipulation and then the return of Jesus that we've ever been before.
So, yes, every day we're closer to this and the establishment of the Lionel Kingdom of God, which will be preceded by a time which can be called the end.
Is this the end?
Well, Jesus listed various things in Matthew chapter 24, and he also said in verse 60, the end is not yet.
There are specific events that are supposed to proceed the event.
So, Jesus was asked about the end.
So, I'm going to go to Matthew 24 and pick this up, starting verse 3.
Now, as he said in the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying,
tell us, one of these things, me, will be the side of your coming, any any age, this age, the age, verse 4.
Jesus answered, said to them, take heed to no one to see if you.
From Daniel, say, I'm the Christ, no, to see many, but you're going to hear the wars and rumors of wars, see that you're not trouble.
For all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For national rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.
All of these are the beginning of sorrows.
When Jesus says, take heed that no one deceives you, because he referring to disinformation.
Well, I guess you could call it that.
Look, back in 2 Timothy chapter 3, I read a few verses from the Apostle Paul, it's chapter 1.
It says, but know this, that in the last days, perilous times will come, for men will be, it's good on verse 7.
Always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of truth, verse 13.
Evil men and imposter will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
Now currently, we seem to be in the time Jesus called the beginning of sorrows, and all that is close to the end, the end is not yet.
Now what happens afterwards?
Goal continuing in Matthew chapter 24, starting verse 9.
Jesus warms, they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you.
You'll be hated by all nations for my name's sake, and many will be offended.
We'll betray one another, and we'll hate one another.
The many false prophets will rise up and deceive many, and because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
But he who enjoys the end will be saved, and this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the roles of witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Now that part hasn't happened.
The time of persecution is coming, and the gospel of the kingdom will be preached to all the world as a witness.
Once God believes that it happens to the degree he intended, notice that is when the end comes.
After the gospel is preached, what happens next?
Well, there's some other specific signs that proceed to start the great tribulation.
If you're still in Matthew 24, I'm going to start verse 15.
So Jesus says, therefore, when you see the abomination of desolation spoken up by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place,
whoever reads, let him understand.
Then let those who are in Judea flee to mountains, let him who's on the house top, let go down to take anything out of his house.
But what are those who are pregnant? Those who are nursing babies in those days.
And pray that your flight may not be in the winter or in the Sabbath, which shows the Sabbath still being kept.
Then there will be great tribulation, such as not benches beginning the world until this time, no nor ever shall be.
And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved.
But for the elect's sake, those days will be shortened.
While international tensions and environmental matters are consistent with beginning of sorrows,
there are specific signs that Jesus said, Chris is our supposed to see before the end actually comes.
And those people who put the dunes day clock together, they don't realize that.
Now, Jesus said, however, for his disciples, as far as they should watch, so they know in the end would be.
As well as the old escape was coming.
Now, we've been in Matthew 24.
A lot of the same things are talked about in the book of Luke, the 21st chapter.
So if Jesus goes and lists several things or in Luke's account, the list of the same basic things Jesus is talking about.
Now, if you go to Luke 24 and you go to verse, excuse me, Luke 21 and you go to verse 34.
You could go to the wrong chapters, not there, obviously.
Luke 21, verse 34.
Jesus said, but take heed to yourselves.
Lest your hearts be weighed down with cruising, drunkenness, and the care is this, this life that today should come upon you unexpectedly.
So a lot of people will say, I have been nearly 2000 years, you know, whatever.
People always saw it's going to happen, but we're supposed to watch because most people won't get it.
Verse 35, Jesus says, for it's going to come as a snare and all those who dwell on the face of the earth.
They're going to say, oh, you know, people talk about this forever, it is not coming.
So what are we supposed to do is Christians watch therefore and pray always that you may be counted,
worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass and to stand before the sun, the man.
Which, by the way, you're not supposed to pray that you be protected.
It's supposed to watch, you may be counted worthy, so you'll change the counted worthy.
Now the Bible clearly teaches that what's called the end of the world is going to come.
And it also lists specific events, Christians should look for which will show us how close, you know, the end actually is.
The Bible also clearly teaches those who properly watch, pray, and live their lives as Jesus wants them to be protected by the way,
from the coming tribulation according to Revelation 3 verses 7 through 13, Revelation 12 verses 14 to 17, if they are Philadelphia Christians.
Thank you, Dr. Teal.
