If you listen to conservative mediaโwhich I do, by the way, and appreciate much of itโwe are entering a โgolden age.โ Those who understand the concept of the Millennial reign of Jesus Christ realize that it is the true golden age. But, that is not what the news analysts are referring to!
Their perspective is that the dumpster fire of the previous administration, who thought about evil continually, is in the rearview mirror. Righteous people didnโt think they could be shocked and re-shocked with the debauchery of the left, but each dayโs rundown of offenses were worse than the previous. When you have a Romans 1 mentality, you just think evil continually.
The leftist cabal had been drowning in evil and when voted out of office, they received an appropriate smackdown. But they are by no means on permanent hold. They are licking their wounds. They are plotting and scheming and planning a comeback. But in the meantime, at least in Washington D.C., they have some appropriate chains on and they have some restrictions.
Hundreds of evil outfits are being shut down through the efforts of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Yes, Elon Musk has troubling aspirations that include brain chips that sound Tribulationesque, and no watcher of the times is ignoring these things.
So, Is Godโs End-Time Agenda on Hold?
So, is this a respite? Maybe a reprieve? Has Satanโs agenda been put on hold? Is the rapture now on hold? Do you think that the globalists are going to relax and willingly turn their agenda over to President Donald Trump? Do you think that Klaus Schwab & Associates plan to take a four year hiatus and go quietly into the night? Do you think that Yuval Noah Harari will fade away because he acknowledged that a Trump victory would be the โend of the global order?โ
To all of the above, a resounding no way!
Letโs always remember that Godโs agenda never pauses. It is never on hold. If we think He is not actingโ that He is not raising the curtain on the last actโit is only because He wants more to be saved. He doesnโt employ stall tactics.
Godโs plan of the ages began before time began. It is never early. It is never late. It is always right on time. The โbirth pangโ markers we are to watch for have not diminished! North Carolina hurricane destruction was a recordsetter. Los Angeles fire destruction was unprecedented in modern history. They were warnings that time is running out.
The Powerbrokerโs Goal Is Still One World
I appreciate similar thoughts by author and commentator Jonathan Brentner who states, โWhile it might be tempting to think thereโs been a pause in the mad rush of events leading up to the start of the Tribulation period, the elite powerbrokers of our world remain busy. They are working behind the scenes to quickly set the stage for when they can openly enslave the world under their domain.โ
Brentner additionally says, โItโs tempting to think that way. I have found myself wondering if perhaps thereโs been a pause in the parade of events leading to Jesusโ soon appearing. However, two thoughts bring me back to reality.
โFirst, I remember Jesusโ assertion that the fulfillment of Bible prophecy will happen at the time sovereignly set by the Father (Matthew 24:36; Acts 1:7). God knows the precise time when He will send His Son to get His Bride and bring her to glory. He already took into consideration all that we see happening today, when He long ago set the time of our departure from this world.
โSecond, Iโm aware that a strong undercurrent in world affairs remains, which after the rapture will directly lead to the Antichristโs covenant with Israel, which will mark the beginning of the sevenyear Tribulation for the world. The lawlessness of those who seek to destroy our nation remains on full display.โ
Brentner concludes, โSo, does that mean that world events are accelerating toward Jesusโ appearing? I prefer to put it this way: the stage-setting for the future oneworld government has not ceased or slowed down in any way.โ
โIn the Last Days, Evil Will Wax Worse and Worseโ
Evil never takes a break. It never re-groups. It never gathers in a huddle to plot and scheme. It just keeps charging forward. It says in II Timothy 3:13 that โevil waxes worse and worse.โ And it has escalated exponentially since October 7, 2023, when Hamas invaded southern Israel and perpetrated genocide on Israel.
In March, Islamic radicals stormed through Syria, wiping out religious minorities, including Christians. The same is happening in parts of Africa.
Most often the targets are โpeople of the bookโโJews and Christians. This is a sure sign that we are not in any kind of โgolden age.โ The people in Ukraine have no โgolden age.โ Nor do the targets of Haitian gangs, nor victims of Islamic terror in parts of Europe who believe in open borders.
Further evidence is that following the October 7 slaughter, the world cheered for Hamas. What a perfect illustration of evil being called good (Is. 5:20); of an upside-down world under the sway of the evil one.
Godโs Golden Age
We are all thankful for the many actions of the new administration to rein in evil, waste and corruption! But even better news than this is that God has given us a wonderful promise: Jesus is preparing a place for us and will take us there to be with him forever: โIn my Fatherโs house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way where I am going.โ (John 14:2-4)
After that seven-year time period, we return to a golden age back on earthโthe Millennium. Itโs not perfection, but itโs good enough to be called a golden age. Kids can play near snakes and the animal kingdom even loves one another.
So, get excited when there is talk about a coming โgolden age,โ but keep it in the right context and in its rightful place in prophecy. It doesnโt come about through any efforts in Washington, D.C. Rather, thanks to the Hand of God, in His timing.
