PROPHECY NEWS ALERT! Prophetic Implications of a Civil War in Russia…Geopolitical Transition to Daniel’s Seventieth Week!

Over the past year a war has been raging between the West and Russia. In the news they portray this war as a conflict between Ukraine and Vladimir Putin. The reality is it is conflict between Babylon’s Beasts that start to fight in the End-time. Yesterday Civil War broke out in Russia. MSM (main stream media) is barely commenting on the reality on the ground in Russia. Do they really want you to know political world events?

Daniel 7:2, Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. 3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another… 5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.

You should recognize these as Daniel’s Babylon Beasts (empires) that arise over time and after these three Daniel has another separate vision that shows him the last Beast.

Daniel 7:7, 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; and it had ten horns. 8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.

What we have to wonder is if in the end, these Beasts that are “like to a bear” and “like a lion” and “like a leopard” are global or partially global in scale and may be indicative of global players like the USA, NATO, Russia, and the Ottoman Islamic Empire. Remember this final Beast has a great wound that is healed and regains his strength leaving everyone wondering after the Beast Empire.

Why is this important? Geopolitically how can you have this final Beast Empire arise composed of geographic portions of the other prior empires without an incredible change in current global politics?

Revelation 13:1, And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

Whether we view these beasts of Daniel 7 such as the leopard being Greece, or the Bear being Persia or in the end Russia, could indicate what events precede the coming of the final Beast with seven heads and ten horns. Notice this final Beast has the feet of a Bear. So, if you choose to say the Bear is Persia (Iran) it tells you the current state of affairs requires that Persia lose its dominance and become part of the final Beast as its feet. Or if you view this Bear as being the Russian Bear it would also require a circumstance that indicates the Bear itself loses its dominance and either in whole or in part (its southern regions) become part of the Final Beast Empire (Ottoman Islamic Empire) with seven heads and ten crowns.

Does the outbreak of civil war in Russia yesterday indicate that this war with the West increases in scope and results in Russia’s loss of dominance, or that this war increases in scope and both the West and Russia are so weakened by an all-out war that both empires lose their dominance over the Middle East and can no longer interfere on a large scale over events that occur in the formation of the final Beast Empire (Ottoman Islamic Empire), which will include the geopolitical territory of the feet of the Bear? 

“The history of Islam and Russia encompasses periods of conflict between the Muslim minority and the Orthodox majority, as well as periods of collaboration and mutual support. Robert Crews’s study of Muslims living under the Tsar indicates that “the mass of Muslims” was loyal to that regime after Catherine, and sided with it over the Ottoman Empire.” (Robert D. Crews, For Prophet and Tsar, pp. 299-300 Harvard, 2006)

What if the allegiance of theses territories finds its best interests now lie with the Ottoman Empire and not Russia?

“Muslims form a majority of the population of the republics of Tatarstan and Bashkortostan in the Volga Federal District and predominate among the nationalities in the North Caucasian Federal District located between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea: the Circassians, Balkars, Chechens, Ingush, Kabardin, Karachay, and numerous Dagestani peoples. Also, in the middle of the Volga Region reside populations of Tatars and Bashkirs, the vast majority of whom are Muslims. Other areas with notable Muslim minorities include Moscow, Saint Petersburg, the republics of Adygea, North Ossetia-Alania and Astrakhan, Moscow, Orenburg and Ulyanovsk oblasts. There are over 5,000 registered religious Muslim organizations,[10] equivalent to over one sixth of the number of registered Russian Orthodox religious organizations of about 29,268 as of December 2006.” (Wikipedia, Islam in Russia)

Either way Daniel’s final 70thWeek (7-year Tribulation) is indicative of a world that we do not currently recognize and would demand massive changes to occur in short order. What do we see happening shortly?

A loss of dominance either through war or economic depression that sidelines the USA, NATO, and Russia and the restoration of the Ottoman Islamic Empire (Revelation 13:3). 

The coming Two Witnesses will give a 1260-day prophecy with miraculous signs directing the nations of the world how to repent before God. This will result in worldwide torment and conflict between populations and their governments, conflict between lay church members and their pastors and priests, and conflict between churches over doctrinal compliance with the message of the Two witnesses.

All of these circumstances will polarize populations either for or against the Two Witnesses and their message of repentance. Everyone will be forced to choose a side and suffer the consequences of their choices.

Revelation 11:3, And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. 6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

Notice these Two Witnesses are appointed by God with power to do the miraculous. Through their prophecy there will be no rain for 1260 days. They will call down plagues on the nations. Their testimony is so effective after 3 ½ years they are killed and all the world rejoices over their death and give gifts because the Two Witnesses “torment” the whole world. 

Don’t diminish how this changes the world. They are so effective in plaguing the world that no doubt world leaders will send assassins to try and kill the Two Witnesses. Also, their testimony is so powerful it will cause a division in all of society at a national and local level that even church members will start betraying one another. LGBTQ+ Churches will likely call these Two Witnesses false prophets. True servants of God will follow and obey the Two Witnesses. Many believers will be called up for evaluation of their testimony about whether we should obey the Two Witnesses or not. God is separating the Wheat from the Tares.

Matthew 24:7, For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

Consider what will you do if your church teaches a doctrine that is contradictory to the prophecy of the Two Witnesses…what will you do? Do you follow God or your pastor? Do you follow the Bible or your pastor? Do you obey God or man? What will you do when the question is no longer if God exists, but “what do I do when miracles start happening and I can no longer hide behind the ambiguity of “living our own truth”? “What do I do when my beliefs contradict the calling of God to change”? You need to ask yourself… “Will God allow me to ignore the truth…because its inconvenient to what I want”?
