A person on FB posted this…..CORONA
How many letters are in CORONA? 6
How many numbers are in each letter?
C =3, O=15, R=18, O=15, N=14, A=1
If you add CORONA it’s 6, and if you add the numbers that make up CORONA, it’s 66.
Which is where you get 666.
Yes it’s a play on words and numbers, make no mistake about it, but I don’t think this is far fetched.
In Matthew 24:7, Mark 13:8, and Luke 21:11, the Lord Jesus prophesied two things. In some of the verses, above these verses, the Lord Jesus prophesied about the destruction of the temple which occurred in AD 70.
The destruction of the temple in Jerusalem took place in just under 40 years after the resurrection of the Lord Jesus.
If you’re not careful, you will miss that this was a defining signal regarding the end times.
Look at Hebrews 1:1-2 (NKJV Strong’s)
“God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;”
Remember. Jesus operated in all 5 ministry gifts, but when He gave this Word to the disciples, He spoke prophetically which had unmistakable end time implications.
Yes, Jesus was the Prophet that the Lord God told Moses would come.
Deuteronomy 18:15-19 (NKJV Strong’s)
“The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your midst, from your brethren. Him you shall hear, according to all you desired of the Lord your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, nor let me see this great fire anymore, lest I die.’
“And the Lord said to me: What they have spoken is good. I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him.”
Then the book of John said this about the Lord Jesus.
John 4:16-19 (NKJV Strong’s)
“Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”
Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”
The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.”
Mark 6:4-5 (NKJV Strong’s)
“But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house.” Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them.”
The various plagues or pestilences that has come since the Lord prophesied the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem, should be no surprise to those that know their Bible. But what’s happening is that we’re being swarmed with relatable information. As one person clearly put it.
A convergence of a series of events.
So many events that he and others can’t keep up with reporting it.
Some of the information that he doesn’t use is fake, but the pieces of information that he shares are crucial, credible pieces of information that indicate the fact that while this isn’t the end, it’s a signal to us that they end is getting closer.
Just like when you have a destination and you look for road signs so you won’t miss the exit.
The fine tooth combing or fine print of events have a way of becoming so distracting that we fail to preach the fact that people need to be ready. For years, many have been talking about the coming of the Lord and many have become so disappointed, that preachers don’t warn the people and sinners any more.
2 Peter 3:1-4 (NKJV Strong’s)
“Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.”
My fellow ministers, while I’m aware that the Spirit of God may be leading you in various messages, it’s important to keep at the forefront the fact that the Lord is coming.
Some of us have been saying this with a hallow ring because it’s such a common statement in many of our pulpits. But when you see the events of our time rapidly occurring, if you’re not watching, and the music stops, you may be without a chair to sit in.
This nation and other nations have had experiences with plagues in the past. But nothing like this where you’re put on “time-out.”
The most important thing that we can tell you is that the Lord is coming, be ready. The Prophet gave us what to look for, and this is no time to ignore the signs and become complacent. This is not the time to set aside these events. It’s very important to pay attention.
Another thing that I’ve observed is that there are preachers that are leading people to pray and that’s good. But be mindful that you can’t stop the events that the Lord Jesus told us would come upon the earth.
We can intercede or stand in the gap and ask the Lord for more time to share the gospel to see loved ones come into the kingdom. We can ask the Lord to have mercy before it’s too late. We can do these things, but the events that must come to pass cannot be stopped.
Postponed, delayed, but not stopped.
The Lord factored in His long-suffering and He has a point in time where the end of all things must come to pass.
In the fine print of events, we know that the forces of darkness is at work to assemble the new world order.
This is nothing new.
From the time that Nimrod attempted the first World Order. The tower of Babel.
Also with the children of Israel that were exiled to Babylon, it would be there that Daniel would receive insight into the end times.
Today, we’re seeing this World Order reassembling.
From installing a higher way to stream information (5G), control information, no cash transactions, vaccines, working at home on your traceable computer, controlling your movement, ecumenical religion, globalized policies, unify currency, and other NWO (New World Order) efforts.
All of these are signals that Babylon, as the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ told us, is forming.
You’re already being tracked. Smartphones have GPS technology. Your cars have GPS technology. Your credit cards have chips. Your work ID’s have chips.
And it’s been reported that the financial picture for the world economy that’s already stretched profoundly beyond any means to repair it, will be worse than the 2008 economic recession. And it’s been said that the economic disaster that may be coming upon the world will require somebody to get us out of this.
HINT!!! HINT!!! HINT!!!
Since many of the G8 countries are shutdown, commerce is effected and there may be no recovery in sight. This is no time to be outside the kingdom of the Lord on this. This is the time to pay close attention.
Finally, a question was asked.
Will we come back to normal?
Since we don’t know the timing of the coming of the Lord, it’s foolish to assume that we may or may not go back to normal lives. Be prayerful and watch. This is no time to be in the foolishness of sin. The world is on time out.
As believers, we need to stay out of sin and stay close to the Lord.
Closer to the Lord than we’ve ever been before.
So all of these signs that are occurring in real time should be alarming, but the Lord said that these are the “beginnings of sorrows.”
Preachers, preach your popular messages that promote you all you want, but these are clear signs that the greatest event, the coming of the Lord, may be closer than we all think.
