The Nuclear Bomb In Prophecy

The time has come to disclose the real hidden facts about the nuclear bomb, the facts no government authority can reveal to you, because they do not know! The unknown quantity about the terrifying nuclear bomb is what’s going to happen! After all, that’s what we all want to know? Will be used? Where? By whom? And when?

There is only one who knows the answers! The Creator God – He who made the earth, the heavens all that is and who now, actively, guides and controls the destiny of all nations and of the whole world, the God this world has ignored and forgotten, He alones knows these vital answers to the future, and God has revealed the answers in the prophecies of His Word, the Holy Bible.

In the face of the unbelievable destructive power of the nuclear bomb, God Almighty is about to step in and intervene in the misguided affairs of mankind, and bring us a New World of peace! And in the meantime, God offers you – yes, I mean you, reading this article, this instant complete protection and security, divine protection. From whatever terrifying destruction may be brought by misguided and God-defying human leaders! I say to you, in God Most High lies your only sure and safe protection in this perilous time. The time has come for you to put aside every other consideration, and seek the Eternal your God, in the way He tells you to seek Him, to put Him first in your life, and not second, or last, as most of you have been doing.

Let’s not deceive ourselves. Let’s not beat around the bush! This world now faces such fantastic forces of destruction that, unless God was very soon going to intervene and save us from ourselves, this world would destroy itself utterly!

Men try to calm their fears and bolster up courage by reasoning that the nuclear bomb is so frightening that it will act as a deterrent, unless, they add, some human leader in the seat of power in a fit of madness, or thru miscalculation, sets out to conquer the world with this terrible weapon. But, as one former President said: “insanity still exists”! I warn you also, that safety lies in God Almighty, and not in wishful psychology! The question now is: will the nuclear bomb be used? And if so, when, by whom, against whom? Did you know the answers are in the Bible?

It is about time we pause to realize that God is working out a purpose here below! God controls and rules not only this earth but the entire universe. It served God’s purpose to make us free moral agents to endow us, as He did for no other species of life we can see or know, with some of the very powers of God! He endowed us with minds. He made us with power to know and to learn, to think and to plan, and to execute and build that which we have thought out and designed. In other words, we have been endowed with some of God’s creative power.

But only some of it! God limited the human mind. He set a limit on human powers. Thank God He did that. And the Most High, in His governing power as Supreme Ruler, Himself decreed that mankind should be allowed certain free latitude, to use these God-endowed powers according to man’s own ideas, desires, and initiative. In other words, for a 6,000-year period God has chosen to keep hands off human activities – mostly. But not altogether!

Even though man has not been conscious of God’s over-all supreme authority and rule, even though mankind has not seen it, or realized it, yet God has always determined the destiny of nations, the rise and fall of Empires, the outcome, even, of wars!

Now, is the nuclear bomb going to be used? It’s about time we wake up to the fact that God is directing this universe, that He intervenes when it serves His purpose that He is working out thru human experience, that the Eternal sees what’s going on, and knows a lot more about this nuclear bomb than any human scientist or official - and He shall determine whether to permit some mad man in a seat of human authority to use it, or whether He shall restrain and prevent such use. He, God Almighty, is going to determine the outcome! Before we reveal to you whether this imagination defying destruction is to be unleashed against any city, or what cities and who or what power will perpetrate this colossal crime of the ages, it’s necessary, first that you realize God’s power, God’s concern and interest in this world chaos of the moment.

Now get your Bible. I want you to see these staggering facts that concern this nuclear bomb with your own eyes. Turn first to the 40th chapter of Isaiah in the Moffatt translation. “Why, the nations are a mere drop in the bucket, no more to him than dust upon a balance! He lifts lands like straw! Before him all the nations are as nothing: to him they are but empty and inane. Then whom can you compare with God? What can you put beside him? Can you not understand, cannot you see? Were you not told this from the first, have you not grasped this, since the world began? – that He sits over the round earth, so high that its inhabitants look like grasshoppers; he spreads the skies out like a curtain stretches them like a tent; he brings nobles down to nothing, he ruins rulers of the world, scarcely planted, scarcely sown, scarcely rooted in the earth, when a puff from him they wither, the storm sweeps them off like straws. To whom will you compare me, then, and equal me? as the Majestic One.” (Isa. 40:15-18, 21-25.)

God’s power is unlimited. Even the terrible power of the hydrogen and nuclear bomb are infinitesimal beside the power of God.

Now one thing we want first to all to make plain. God is going to permit the misguided hand of man to bring more evil upon this topsy-turvy, upside-down world? But that evil will fall only upon those who defy God, or those who ignore God’s protection! Evil men shall be punished! But, if you will trust God, surrender your life to Him, God promises you protection: “Happy the man who stays by the Most High in shelter, who lives under the shadow of Almighty God.”

“You need not fear the terrors of the night, nor arrows flying in the day; you need not fear plague stalking in the dark, nor sudden death at noon; hundreds may fall beside you, thousands at your right hand, but the plague will not reach you, safe shielded by his faithfulness. You have only to look on and see how evil men are punished; but you have shelter beside the Eternal, and make the Most High God your home.” (Ps. 91; 1, 5-6).

Now we are going to bring you the sure and certain answer as to whether, by whom, and against whom, the nuclear bomb will be used. God Almighty is able to give us the facts, before the events happen, for the simple reason that He controls what is to happen; God is working out His purpose here below!

We want you to realize just how far God controls world conditions. The nations of the world may get together and make plans for controlling world conditions, but there is a Higher Power who rules supreme, whom the nations have forgotten!

Here is what God Himself says: “The Eternal wrecks the purposes of pagans, he brings to nothing what the nations plan; but the Eternal’s purpose stands for ever, and what he plans will last from age to age, from where he sits, be scans all who inhabit the world, he who alone made their minds, he notes all they do. Armies do not bring victory to a king, the warrior is not rescued by sheer strength; cavalry are in vain for victory, there is no winning by the strength of that’ (Ps. 33:10-11, 14-17).

In ways that few seem to recognize, God determined the outcome of World War II, by a series of three miraculous or absolutely providential events, which turned the tide of battle entirely!

In this 6,000 year period the Most High has allotted for mankind to write the supreme lesson of eternity in human experience, we are now already actually into the crisis at the close of this allotted span of this present evil world.

For 6,000 years God has kept hands off from direct ruling over mankind, permitting human-kind to voluntarily accept the beneficent rule and government of God, or to reject it and set up his own rule according to human reasoning, vanity, greed, and corruption. For 6,000 years mankind has rejected the government of God, rebelled against the ways and laws of God, and corrupted itself.

And now, in a world destroying itself in world revolution, God looks down and says this: “A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord. Thus saith he Lord of hosts, behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth. And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground” (Jer. 25:31-33). That could never happen until the atomic age, July of 1945.

In this present evil day, this last, or remnant, generation of this present evil world, God says of the descendants of His birthright nations, The House of Israel: “And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, as he goes through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver. Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off. And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots: and I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strongholds” (Micah 5:8-11).

I wonder if you realize that the 12 tribes of ancient Israel were divided into two nations, after the death of King Solomon! One of these nations, with the Ten Tribes, retained the national name Kingdom of Israel. That nation has the birthright promise that they were ultimately to become the most powerful single nation on earth, and also another great Commonwealth of Nations. That nation was not Jewish, it was never given the name, “Jew.”

But, the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin, with a considerable number of Levites, split off into a separate nation, and they were named the Kingdom of Judah. The name “Jew” is merely a nickname for the national name of that nation, Judah. Now the Jewish people are scattered all over the world in most all nations. This prophecy of Micah does not refer to the Jewish people, but to the so-called Lost Ten Tribes of Israel, destined according to God’s unconditional, unbreakable promise to become, part of them, a great Commonwealth of Nations, and part of them forming the one greatest, most powerful single nation in our time today, after the year 1800 A.D., and before the end of this world and the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Now Jeremiah was inspired to foretell of a great and terrible time of trouble to come on these nations descended from the ancient Ten Tribes of Israel, in our time: “For thus saith the Lord: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. Alas! For that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall b e saved out of it. For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him’ (Jer. 30:5-8).

That has not yet happened! But, at the second coming of Jesus Christ, contrary to all human teaching on this subject, these nations descended from the Ten Tribes of Israel are to be found in captivity, with a yoke around their necks. This Church tells you, it’s time to wake up to the TRUTH of this crisis situation! God has sent us to shout to you this last warning! God help you to heed!

Now, what power will place that yoke on the nations that constitute modern Israel, the Ten Tribes whose identity the world has lost? “Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate. I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke. And thou sadist I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart. Neither didst remember the latter end of it” (Isa. 47:1, 6-7).

That latter verse is quoted directly in Revelation 18:7, where this modern daughter of the ancient Babylon is identified in the 17th and 18th chapters of Revelation.

Who is this modern Babylon? In Rev. 17 is pictured the symbol of a weird beast, ridden by a woman. All Bible students, so far as we know, regardless of denomination, recognize this symbolic beast as the ancient Roman Empire. This whole system, this daughter of ancient “Babylon” is named in Revelation 17:5: “And upon her forehead was a name written, mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth.”

Now notice: “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is” (Rev. 17:8). This ancient Empire is to be resurrected. It will rise up yet once again by a union of ten modern fascist dictatorships in the territory of the ancient Empire: “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen and faithful” (Rev.17: 12-14).

So now we have the time of the prophecy! Just before the second coming of Jesus Christ! This is a power, soon to startle and stagger the world, which will oppose and fight against Jesus Christ at His appearing!

Now what about the nuclear bomb? Micah’s prophecy which we read to you says plainly that this invading power will cut off the cities of Israel. Only the atomic and hydrogen and now the nuclear bombs could do that.

The prophecies of Ezekiel are to the House of Israel, not to Judah. Of this time, God reveals thru Ezekiel, in chapter 6, verse 6: “In all your dwelling places the cities shall be laid waste.” In Ezekiel 12:20:”And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate, and ye shall know that I am the Eternal” – which in Ezekiel always refers to the second coming of Jesus Christ. And finally, in this time to come, what will happen to the coming union of fascist dictators in Europe? “And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and the Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath” (Rev. 16:19).

But Jesus Christ, at His second coming, will rescue Israel, remove the yoke of the daughter of the ancient Babylon, and restore Israel to prosperity and power, after they have learned their lesson and turned to the government of God. Notice Isaiah 14:1-4 “For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the Lord for servants and handmaids; and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.

“And it shall come to pass in the day that the Lord shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve, that thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! The golden city ceased!” against this modern Babylon that had invaded Israel! (England and the United States of America.)
