Truth is always strange; Stranger than fiction[1]
13 The sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the four horns of the golden altar that is before God.
14 It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”
15 And the four angels who had been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.
16 The number of the mounted troops was twice ten thousand times ten thousand. I heard their number. (200,000,000 in words two hundred million).
17 The horses and riders I saw in my vision looked like this: Their breastplates were fiery red, dark blue, and yellow as sulfur. The heads of the horses resembled the heads of lions, and out of their mouths came fire, smoke and sulfur.
18 A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths.
19 The power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails were like snakes, having heads with which they inflict injury.
20 The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk.
21 Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.
Revelation 9.13-21 kjv
13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. (200,000,000 in words two hundred million).
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts

There is a Claudius who is mentioned in the bible in the Book of Acts. There is also the Claudius the emperor. In the last verse of Trumpet number six it says:
Revelation 9.21
21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts
Let’s look at Claudius the emperor of Rome for a moment because we are still in a part Roman empire. The book of Daniel said this last beast (industrial, medical, military and financial complex) would be a type of complex monster.
Daniel 7.7 kjv
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it;
Daniel 2.40-43
40 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron—for iron breaks and smashes everything—and as iron breaks things to pieces, so it will crush and break all the others.
41 Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay.
42 As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.
43 And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.

Claudius (/ˈklɔːdiəs/ KLAW-dee-əs; Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus; 1 August 10 BC – 13 October AD 54) was the fourth Roman emperor, ruling from AD 41 to 54.
A member of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, Claudius was born to Drusus and Antonia Minor at Lugdunum[4] in Roman Gaul, where his father was stationed as a military legate. He was the first Roman emperor to be born outside Italy. Nonetheless, Claudius was an Italic of Sabine origins. Because he was afflicted with a limp and slight deafness due to sickness at a young age, he was ostracized by his family and was excluded from public office until his consulship (which was shared with his nephew, Caligula, in 37).
Roman Gaul controlled the areas in the map below[5]
……. Despite his lack of experience, Claudius proved to be an able and efficient administrator. He expanded the imperial bureaucracy to include freedmen, and helped to restore the empire’s finances after the excess of Caligula’s reign. He was also an ambitious builder, constructing many new roads, aqueducts, and canals across the Empire. During his reign the Empire started its successful conquest of Britain.
Here is the link between Rome and England that links the Holy Scripture of Daniel chapter 2 and Daniel chapter 7. We continue in the Wikki overview.
Having a personal interest in law, he presided at public trials, and issued up to twenty edicts a day. He was seen as vulnerable throughout his reign, particularly by elements of the nobility. Claudius was constantly forced to shore up his position, which resulted in the deaths of many senators. Those events damaged his reputation among the ancient writers, though more recent historians have revised that opinion. Many authors contend that he was murdered by his own wife, Agrippina the Younger. After his death at the age of 63, Nero, his grand-nephew and legally adopted step-son, succeeded him as emperor.
Family and early life
Roman imperial dynasties, Great Cameo of France, Julio-Claudian dynasty
Chronology
Preceded by Roman Republic Followed by Year of the Four Emperors
Claudius was born on 1 August 10 BC at Lugdunum (modern Lyon, France). He had two older siblings, Germanicus and Livilla. His mother, Antonia Minor, may have had two other children who died young.
Claudius’s maternal grandparents were Mark Antony and Octavia Minor, Augustus’s sister, and he was therefore the great-great grandnephew of Gaius Julius Caesar. His paternal grandparents were Livia, Augustus’ third wife, and Tiberius Claudius Nero. During his reign, Claudius revived the rumor that his father Nero Claudius Drusus was actually the illegitimate son of Augustus, to give the appearance that Augustus was Claudius’ paternal grandfather.
In 9 BC, Claudius’s father Drusus unexpectedly died on campaign in Germania after a fall from a horse. He was then left to be raised by his mother, who never remarried. When his disability became evident, the relationship with his family turned sour. Antonia referred to him as a monster, and used him as a standard for stupidity. She seems to have passed her son off to his grandmother Livia for a number of years.
Livia was a little kinder, but nevertheless often sent Claudius short, angry letters of reproof. He was put under the care of a “former mule-driver” to keep him disciplined, under the logic that his condition was due to laziness and a lack of willpower. However, by the time he reached his teenage years, his symptoms apparently waned and his family began to take some notice of his scholarly interests.
In AD 7, Livy was hired to tutor Claudius in history, with the assistance of Sulpicius Flavus. He spent a lot of his time with the latter, as well as the philosopher Athenodorus. Augustus, according to a letter, was surprised at the clarity of Claudius’s oratory. Expectations about his future began to increase.
Public life
….. When Claudius returned to the narrative later in life, he skipped over the wars of the Second Triumvirate altogether. But the damage was done, and his family pushed him into the background. When the Arch of Pavia was erected to honor the Imperial clan in AD 8, Claudius’s name (now Tiberius Claudius Nero Germanicus after his elevation to paterfamilias of the Claudii Nerones on the adoption of his brother) was inscribed on the edge – past the deceased princes, Gaius and Lucius, and Germanicus’s children….
Despite the disdain of the Imperial family, it seems that from very early on the general public respected Claudius. At Augustus’s death, the equites, or knights, chose Claudius to head their delegation. When his house burned down, the Senate demanded it be rebuilt at public expense. They also requested that Claudius be allowed to debate in the Senate. Tiberius turned down both motions, but the sentiment remained.
After the death of Tiberius, the new emperor Caligula (the son of Claudius’ brother Germanicus) recognized Claudius to be of some use. He appointed Claudius his co-consul in 37 to emphasize the memory of Caligula’s deceased father Germanicus. Despite this, Caligula relentlessly tormented his uncle: playing practical jokes, charging him enormous sums of money, humiliating him before the Senate, and the like. According to Cassius Dio Claudius became very sickly and thin by the end of Caligula’s reign, most likely due to stress.
Assassination of Caligula (AD 41)
On 24 January 41, Caligula was assassinated in a broad-based conspiracy involving Cassius Chaerea – a military tribune in the Praetorian Guard – and several senators. There is no evidence that Claudius had a direct hand in the assassination, although it has been argued that he knew about the plot – particularly since he left the scene of the crime shortly before his nephew was murdered. However, after the deaths of Caligula’s wife and daughter, it became apparent that Cassius intended to go beyond the terms of the conspiracy and wipe out the Imperial family.
Detail from A Roman Emperor 41 AD, c. 1871. Proclaiming Claudius Emperor, 1867.
In the chaos following the murder, Claudius witnessed the German guard cut down several uninvolved noblemen, including many of his friends. He fled to the palace to hide. According to tradition, a Praetorian named Gratus found him hiding behind a curtain and suddenly declared him princeps. A section of the guard may have planned in advance to seek out Claudius, perhaps with his approval. They reassured him that they were not one of the battalions looking for revenge. He was spirited away to the Praetorian camp and put under their protection.
The Senate quickly met and began debating a change of government, but this eventually devolved into an argument over which of them would be the new princeps. When they heard of the Praetorians’ claim, they demanded that Claudius be delivered to them for approval, but he refused, sensing the danger that would come with complying. Some historians, particularly Josephus, claim that Claudius was directed in his actions by the Judaean King Herod Agrippa. However, an earlier version of events by the same ancient author downplays Agrippa’s role so it remains uncertain. Eventually the Senate was forced to give in. In return Claudius granted a general amnesty, although he executed a few junior officers involved in the conspiracy. The actual assassins, including Cassius Chaerea and Julius Lupus, the murderer of Caligula’s wife and daughter, were put to death to ensure Claudius’s own safety and as a future deterrent.
As Emperor
Claudius took several steps to legitimize his rule against potential usurpers, most of them emphasizing his place within the Julio-Claudian family. He adopted the name “Caesar” as a cognomen, as the name still carried great weight with the populace. To do so, he dropped the cognomen “Nero” which he had adopted as paterfamilias of the Claudii Nerones when his brother Germanicus was adopted out. As Pharaoh of Egypt, Claudius adopted the royal titulary Tiberios Klaudios, Autokrator Heqaheqau Meryasetptah, Kanakht Djediakhshuemakhet (“Tiberius Claudius, Emperor and ruler of rulers, beloved of Isis and Ptah, the strong bull of the stable moon on the horizon”).
While Claudius had never been formally adopted either by Augustus or his successors, he was nevertheless the grandson of Augustus’ sister Octavia, and so he felt that he had the right of family. He also adopted the name “Augustus” as the two previous emperors had done at their accessions. He kept the honorific “Germanicus” to display the connection with his heroic brother. He deified his paternal grandmother Livia to highlight her position as wife of the divine Augustus. Claudius frequently used the term “filius Drusi” (son of Drusus) in his titles, to remind the people of his legendary father and lay claim to his reputation.
Since Claudius was the first Emperor proclaimed on the initiative of the Praetorian Guard instead of the Senate, his repute suffered at the hands of commentators (such as Seneca). Moreover, he was the first Emperor who resorted to bribery as a means to secure army loyalty and rewarded the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard that had elevated him with 15,000 sesterces. Tiberius and Augustus had both left gifts to the army and guard in their wills, and upon Caligula’s death the same would have been expected, even if no will existed. Claudius remained grateful to the guard, however, issuing coins with tributes to the Praetorians in the early part of his reign…..
Claudius restored the status of the peaceful Imperial Roman provinces of Macedonia and Achaea as senatorial provinces.
Expansion of the Empire
Bronze head of Claudius found in the River Alde at Rendham, near Saxmundham, Suffolk (British Museum). Potentially taken from the Temple of Claudius in Colonia Victricensis during the Boudican revolt.
Under Claudius, the Empire underwent its first major expansion since the reign of Augustus. The provinces of Thrace, Noricum, Lycia, and Judea were annexed (or put under direct rule) under various circumstances during his term. The annexation of Mauretania, begun under Caligula, was completed after the defeat of rebel forces, and the official division of the former client kingdom into two Imperial provinces. The most far-reaching conquest was that of Britannia.
In 43, Claudius sent Aulus Plautius with four legions to Britain (Britannia) after an appeal from an ousted tribal ally. Britain was an attractive target for Rome because of its material wealth – mines and slaves – as well as being a haven for Gallic rebels. Claudius himself traveled to the island after the completion of initial offensives, bringing with him reinforcements and elephants. The Roman colonia of Colonia Claudia Victricensis was established as the provincial capital of the newly established province of Britannia at Camulodunum, where a large Temple was dedicated in his honour.
Great Britain and the harlot (the Bank of England)
Britannia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[6]
Britannia[7] (/brɪˈtæniə/) is the national personification of Britain as a helmeted female warrior holding a trident and shield. An image first used in classical antiquity, the Latin Britannia was the name variously applied to the British Isles, Great Britain, and the Roman province of Britain during the Roman Empire. Typically depicted reclining or seated with spear and shield since appearing thus on Roman coins of the 2nd century AD, the classical national allegory was revived in the early modern period. On coins of the pound sterling issued by Charles II of England, Scotland, and Ireland, Britannia appears with her shield bearing the Union Flag. To symbolise the Royal Navy’s victories, Britannia’s spear became the characteristic trident in 1797, and a helmet was added to the coinage in 1825.
By the 1st century BC, Britannia replaced Albion as the prevalent Latin name for the island of Great Britain. After the Roman conquest in 43 AD, Britannia also came to refer to the Roman province that encompassed the southern two-thirds of the island (see Roman Britain). The remaining third of the island, known to the Romans as Caledonia, lay north of the River Forth in modern Scotland. It was intermittently but not permanently occupied by the Roman army. The name is a Latinisation of the native Brittonic word for Great Britain, Pretanī, which also produced the Greek form Prettanike or Brettaniai.
In the 2nd century, Roman Britannia came to be personified as a goddess, armed with a spear and shield and wearing a Corinthian helmet.
Antoninus Pius One British Penny 1963
Bank of England Logo
When Roman Britain was divided into four provinces in 197 AD, two were called Britannia Superior (lit. ’Upper Britain’) in the south and Britannia Inferior (lit. ’Lower Britain’) to the north. The name Britannia long survived the end of Roman rule in Britain in the 5th century and yielded the name for the island in most European and various other languages, including the English Britain and the modern Welsh Prydain. In the 9th century the associated terms Bretwalda and Brytenwealda were applied to some Anglo-Saxon kings to assert a wider hegemony in Britain and hyperbolic inscriptions on coins and titles in charters often included the equivalent title rex Britanniae. However when England was unified the title used was rex Angulsaxonum (‘king of the Anglo-Saxons’).
We seen that Claudius possibly murdered people, allegedly took private lands to build canals and other public buildings and used bribery. “sorceries” It is Dr Barry Gumm’s view that the Bank of England and all the banks worldwide use derivatives (making something out of nothing) and when you take out a loan from the bank the bank at that moment creates the money from nothing. Therefore the word “sorceries” is both financial and spiritual acts of darkness.
We have seen that the whole of Europe and Great Britain is a massive political, financial and military complex A massive Empire that includes the USA and many other countries. It is just as the book of Daniel says. This is very important as it is gog and magog.
The Horns of the Altar speak
Revelation 9.13-21 niv
13 The sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the four horns of the golden altar that is before God.
14 It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”
We see that the alter speaks. The altar is a place of sacrifice.
| Altar | 2379 2378 2380 | A place of sacrifice Sacrifice To rush, breathe hard blow, smoke, (slaughter for any purpose) kill, (do) sacrifice. |
We see from the Strong’s Concordance it means to (slaughter for any purpose).
Who are going to be slaughtered at this time – is it the Russians or the Chinese or the terrible and frightening empire of the last first and second beast of Daniel and Revelation?
Now we see an overlay of Trumpet number six and vial or Bowl number six of Revelation 16.
Revelation 16.12-16
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
In 1990 Turkey turned off the water to the Euphrates river.[9]
It did it again in 2014.
Water Drop in Euphrates River Increases Tensions Between Syrian Kurds, Turkey in 2017.[10]
“A dramatic drop in water levels on the Euphrates River in recent weeks is adding to tensions between Turkey and Syrian Kurdish forces.
Kurdish officials in northeast Syria accuse Turkey of reducing the levels of water flowing downstream, causing an agricultural crisis and a major power shortage in the region…..
Russia is east of first and second beast of Revelation but North of the false prophet allegedly the pope.
Therefore it would seem that the Book of Revelation is indicating that the kings of the east would be China, North Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan among others.

China’s Military Capabilities by Michael B. Yahuda, Lecturer in Polities, Southampton University, England said in his book[11]
“China’s primary conventional capability is the People’s Liberation Army (P.L.A) which is estimated to be at the strength of a little over 2.5 million men, about 2 per cent of China’s manpower of military age. In addition, there is a militia force said to number over 200 million men and women.”
LM Wortzel · 1998 · Cited by 38 — military that has the potential to translate economic power … another 200 million males fit for military service available at any time.[12]
2021
THE WEEK STAFF NOVEMBER 14, 2021[13]
China is testing hypersonic missiles and building new nuclear missile silos. What are its goals?
What has China been doing?
Already in possession of the world’s largest fighting force of some 2.2 million troops, China has begun pouring resources into its nuclear arsenal. While it long had about 20 silo-based intercontinental ballistic missiles and some 200 warheads overall as a nuclear deterrent, new satellite images show China has been rapidly building hundreds more silos to potentially fill with nuclear missiles. The Pentagon believes its warheads will double to 400 in the next decade. That’s on top of a weapons construction spree that has seen China’s navy exceed that of the U.S. in number of ships — although many of them are smaller, less potent vessels — while its air force has built some 200 advanced J-16 fighter jets and J-20 stealth jets in the past six years. Its latest military budget of $209 billion is some 7 percent higher than the previous year’s, and three times those of No. 3 and No. 4, India and Russia. To flex its new muscles, China recently sent some 150 planes into Taiwan’s air defense zone and encircled Japan with its warships. “They are clearly challenging us regionally,” said Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, “and their aspiration is to challenge the United States globally.”
Why now?
The build up is the work of President Xi Jinping, who set a goal of 2049 for China to be able to “fight and win” a major war with the U.S. Xi has made the restoration of Chinese sovereignty over all its former lands a top priority and a unifying theme for the nation’s citizens. Textbooks focus on China’s past military humiliations and assert the need for strength; the country sees itself surrounded in the Pacific by U.S. allies Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and the Philippines. Xi said in 2018 that China “cannot lose even one inch of the territory left behind by our ancestors,” and since then China has crushed Hong Kong’s autonomy and warned that “reunification” with Taiwan “must be fulfilled”— by force if necessary. Because the U.S. intends to build up its forces in the Pacific by 2030, some analysts believe China might invade Taiwan in the next five years. Right now, the U.S. military is still vastly more powerful than China’s, but China is attempting to get ahead in new technologies, such as hypersonic missiles.
Revelation 16.14
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the Earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
In this verse we see that the kings of the Earth and of the whole world are going to be in the fight. However, is this the last war or one of the last battles?
The reason this is asked is that Trumpet number seven has not sounded yet. Mystery Babylon the Great – London and the Harlot do not seem to be being dealt with in this verse of the Sixth Trumpet and neither in the sixth bowl.
Would it be to presumptuous then to think that the terrible and frightening beast of the Book of Daniel being now Great Britain, USA, NATO and EU descended from the Roman Empire is first against China and the Kings of the East and later Russia and then Germany and the EU destroying Mystery Babylon the Great (London and the isles) in a later finial battle in Trumpet and Bowl/vial number 7?
To see how close China is to being ready to take on the might of the terrible and freighting beast of Daniel and Revelation we must take a look from a few aspects. To do this we will cite Ray Dalio’s book title: Principles for Dealing with THE CHANGING WORLD ORDER – Why Nations Succeed and Fail[14]
Ray Dalio says to look forward one need to look backward and Ray in his book looked backwards in history around 500 years but in the case of China he looked back some 1500 years. Ray has also produced a video[15] of subject of his book you can find it at this link: https://youtu.be/xguam0TKMw8
China was once the world’s dominant power:
The following chart Ray illustrates that China had been in a sharp decline for last 200 years until around the 1950-60s.
The grey vertical lines are major wars.
As you can see China’s relative standing of Great Empire is catching up to USA and its Allies very quickly and will if allowed become the greatest again.
Will the world be comfortable with this?
Will the USA allow its reserve currency status to be attacked for much longer, when will it say enough?
From the chart above China’s reserve foreign Exchange currency status is minor when Ray Dalio was writing his book in 2021.
Has the conflict with Ukraine and Russia changed this?
Has the conflict with Ukraine and Russia made China rethink its Reserve FX status and increase its momentum?
As we have seen according to Bloomberg news Russia this week (third week of March 2022) will demand “unfriendly nations” that buy commodities like gas pay for them in Rubbles not USDollars![18]
Ray Dalio says “History has taught us that there are five major types of wars:[19]
- Trade/economic wars;
- Technology wars;
- Geopolitical wars;
- Capital wars;
- Military wars;
To these he would add
- Culture wars and;
- The war with ourselves
If this is the case why is the Bible saying the kings of the east approximately 200 million plus all the people in the area and the military and militia from other countries going to fight in the Armageddon.
[20]The name Armageddon comes from the Hebrew word “Har Megiddo,” which means the “mountain of Megiddo,” according to Cline of science live. “By the Middle Ages, multiple nationalities, languages, and centuries had added an ‘n’ and dropped the ‘h’, transforming Har Megiddo to Harmageddon and thence to Armageddon,”.
From Wikipedia [21]Armageddon (/ˌɑːrməˈɡɛdən/, from Ancient Greek: Ἁρμαγεδών Harmagedōn, Late Latin: Armagedōn, from Hebrew: הַר מְגִדּוֹ Har Məgīddō) is the prophesied location of a gathering of armies for a battle during the end times, which is variously interpreted as either a literal or a symbolic location. The term is also used in a generic sense to refer to any end of the world scenario. In Islamic theology, the Armageddon is also mentioned in Hadith as the Greatest Armageddon or Al-Malhama Al-Kubra (the great battle).
The “mount” of Megiddo in northern Israel is not actually a mountain, but a tell (a mound or hill created by many generations of people living and rebuilding on the same spot) on which ancient forts were built to guard the Via Maris, an ancient trade route linking Egypt with the northern empires of Syria, Anatolia and Mesopotamia. Megiddo was the location of various ancient battles, including one in the 15th century BC and one in 609 BC. The nearby modern Megiddo is a kibbutz in the Kishon River area.
Kishon River is mentioned in the Old testament and my team and I showed in my book titles “Savage Kings” that a very interesting battle took place in the time of Deborah the prophetess involving some quite interesting technology. Following is a more extensive review of the passage and linking in (Ephraim) now Great Britain.
Judges 5
13 “Then the men who were left came down to the nobles; the people of the LORD came to me with the mighty.
14 Some came from Ephraim, whose roots were in
Amalek; Benjamin was with the people who followed you. From Makir captains came down, from Zebulun those who bear a commander’s staff.
15 The princes of Issachar were with Deborah; yes, Issachar was with Barak, rushing after him into the valley. In the districts of Reuben there was much searching of heart.
16 Why did you stay among the campfires to hear the whistling for the flocks? In the districts of Reuben there was much searching of heart.
17 Gilead stayed beyond the Jordan. And Dan, why did he linger by the ships? Asher remained on the coast and stayed in his coves.
18 The people of Zebulun risked their very lives; so did Naphtali on the heights of the field.
19 “Kings came, they fought; the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo, but they carried off no silver, no plunder.
20 From the heavens the stars fought, from their courses they fought against Sisera.
21 The river Kishon swept them away, the age-old river, the river Kishon. March on, my soul; be strong!
From my book “Savage Kings – Defeated”:[22]
We see that in the sky (heavens) the “stars” fought and they were close enough to the ground to fight against Sisera!
What are these shining objects flying in the sky in their courses or what we know today as their flight paths. It is not the intention here to prove they had these flying ships planes or objects at this part of this book. This was shown in a later chapter in my book “Savage Kings – Defeated”. They are also shown on my youtube channel. Link is footnoted.[23] The objective in the “Savage Kings – Defeated” book was to show you and note that water can be used as a weapon against people either by accident or on purpose.
In this case the ones in the “stars” we will call them UFO’s for we do not know what they called them back then but we do know they were shinning like the things we call UFO”s today.
They are made by the savage kings and fly using a different technology than that we are allowed and remain without using an identifying flying code because they do not want us the people to know about the second technology of today, The Real True Tesla Technology.
Therefore, we have UFO’s joining the fight against Israel, against God’s people. They had the superior Technology by far. However, we read in Psalm 91 the following.
Psalm 91:5-6
5 You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.
God here is saying don’t worry about the Laser Beam, the Lightning strike or the missile because if you are for the Lord then He will defend. This is what we saw in the book of Judges above, God protected the people. They did not have anywhere near the type of technology. However, in reality Almighty God’s spiritual power as Paul talked about in Ephesians 6.
Ephesians 6.10-18 – The Armour of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty
power.
11 Put on the full armour of God so that you cantake your stand against the devil’s schemes.
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
13 Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
When you have Almighty God on your side and you are in Him and He in you then you have all you need for victory.
Seeing the evidence of artificial lightning and Lasers and that God said don’t worry about the “arrows” or weapons it is entirely possible that the “UFO/Stars (stars the Bible called them “in their path”)” fired a “shot or two” at the Israelites and God fought for His people made their “targeting system misfire” the lightning or laser “arrow” into the water of the river Kishon. God set the correct target the savage kings and their armies and made the lightning bolt/laser ray or beam hit the water instantly overflowing the bank of the river. As a result of this the river Kishon swept them away in what was probably boiling water.
The victory was God’s. Why? Because they made war on God’s People.
River Kishon Today
The River Kishon even today is still a large river. To have it overflow from a “a laser / Lightning” or Directed Energy Weapon of some kind at the right point in the river (something that only God would know), Only God made the equivalent thereof would cause it to overflow burn and wash the enemy away. End of except from book “Savage Kings – Defeated”.
Was this a type shadow of the great battle that Revelation 9 and 16 are talking about?
Is Trumpet 6 in Revelation 9 and the bowl/vail in revelation 16 a great battle where China and other Eastern kings take on Ephraim (Great Britain) and all the other NATO countries including USA with conventional and black military weapons?
Will the black military weapons be destroyed at this time or simply revealed openly?
If we revert back to possible causes of this future conflict we see that Ephraim (Great Britain) Mystery being it is a “Corporation” [Babylon the Great] of the City of London Corporation – The Harlot and Mother of Harlots being the Bank of England as says the following in Revelation 18.
Revelation 18.7
7….In her heart she boasts, ‘I sit as queen; I am not a widow, and I will never mourn.’
Will the first and second beasts of Revelation have a determination that China will not be allowed to have the “reserve currency status” and create a war to destroy China’s powers of influence?
It is commonly noted that first and second beast of Revelation have finance both sides of every war since time of Napoleon.
Could this be the reason?
Could this be the reason the SDR’s may become the reserve currency?
Could this be the reason why China was given the task by the IMF – International Monetary Fund to set up the Social Credit financial system to then draw them into war over it?
China has a plan and so does the second beast of Revelation and will encourage the first beast of Revelation to execute the plan.
Revelation 13.11-14
11 Then I saw another beast (second beast – Industrial Military Medical Financial complex), coming out of the Earth. He had two horns like a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon.
12 He exercised all the authority of the first beast (Great Britain/British Commonwealth – Ephraim) on his behalf, and made the Earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.
Thus In my book “ANTICHRIST REVEALED”[25] I reviewed the work of Dr Barry Gumm and his book “Mystery Babylon the Great-er London[26] who showed (with news articles) who the wounded head that was healed is and we showed in “ANTICHRIST REVEALED[27]” the 8th whom came out of the seventh and he is also the 11th Horn from the Book of Daniel who pushes 3 Horns out……Read the research in the book quoted “ANTICHRIST REVEALED”. It is important please read the book “ANTICHRIST REVEALED” the pdf copy is free of charge on my website here: http://padreaustralia.com/antichrist-revealed-3/
13 And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to Earth in full view of men.
See the missiles and other wonders in the sky, like lasers and hyper sonic missiles in Ukraine and many other countries over the decades. The technology is advancing rapidly.
14 Because of the signs he was given power to do on behalf of the first beast, he deceived the inhabitants of the Earth.
What could these deceptions and delusions entail?
- False climate change policy;
- Machines that create the disasters that go so fast you need to slow the videos down by 90% to see them;
- The false need to hate Russians and other nationalities.
- and the future false need to hate the Chinese;
- The false need of battery power instead of the true Tesla technology and that of Professor John R.R. Searl although some believe petrol is ok.
- The inflation narrative that is actually the deflation of the purchasing power of the USDollar;
- The false need to have SDR’s and Central Bank Digital Currencies as reserve currencies;
- The COVID WAR[28] – as ex-President Trump declared;
And many more deceptions do they deceive the common person. We expand on this in the chapter titled “The Little Scroll” in the “Idea of Concealment” the invisible enemy which is taken orally or by vaccine injection.
Summary Trumpet Number Six
- God is allowing the drawing nations to an area of ha-gammon (Armageddon) due to disobedience;
- The River Euphrates has been drained. Whether this is so tanks can drive on it or a sign that this Trumpet is close to being completed. We will need to wait and see
- Four angels go forth from the river Euphrates to draw the armies of the Earth to battle.
- The number of the kings of the east army is approximately 200 million strong which seems not include the other NATO countries military(s) including Black Project Military and Space Command/Forces;
- We see kings of the east military is defeated because the First Beast and the false prophet are still in control and will be dealt with in Trumpet number Seven. Revelation 13, and 17;
- Fire, Smoke and Brimstone will kill 1/3 of mankind, therefore the assumption is that missile will go far and wide to many nations
- Fire and Brimstone means the following types of war
- Kinetic weapons
- Missiles
- Thermobaric weapons[29]
- Nuclear weapons
- Electromagnetic – Directed Energy Weapons
- Laser Weapons and many more
- Additional note: The possible destruction of the Kings of the East Naval ships due to the diabolical destruction of the volcanoes around the Ring of Fire, may be the reason the Kings of the East go overland to the battle of Armageddon
In my book “COVID WAR Revelation 6 – 7 Seals[30]’ I tried to show that the “vaccinations” of around ¼ of the Earth population was to find the correct mixture of chemicals, gene therapy and Nanotechnology to enable the maximum optimal composition of an injection to connect 24/7 to the IoB (Internet of bodies) as we see with the little scroll/book in the next chapter God has warned us of this by way of demonstration and potentially of its timing, which may be between the sixth and seventh trumpet sounding as demonstrated by John eating the little scroll described in the next chapter.
