The high usage of blasphemous speech that is so prevalent today is a sign that the End Times are quickly approaching

JD: We’re talking about blasphemy. I remember reading in the book of Revelation chapter 13 I believe its verses 1, 5 and 6 that the design of the Antichrist when he comes on the scene is going to be blasphemy as well. The Antichrist is going to blaspheme God in so many different ways. But I have to come back and think for example family television. I see so much blasphemy put forth by the actors, the new movies coming out, the books you read, people talking in the street they’re all blaspheming God. Is this an indicator we’re quickly moving towards that scenario that’s found in God’s word for the last days?

JW: Absolutely and of course Revelation 13:5 says, there was given him the Antichrist a mouth speaking blasphemies and he opened his mouth and blasphemy against God, blasphemies his name and his Tabernacle. We see it now the whole world is gradually becoming what conditioned for this kind of thing the substitute for the glory of God something a mere man is seeing and doing.

JD: We see that the Antichrist is going to blaspheme. I believe as I John says the spirit of Antichrist is already here. Is this not evidence as well? We’re not only talking about world leaders blaspheming God, the Antichrist blaspheming God but even with our lips people today is becoming more and more common to hear the Lords name in vain and that’s blasphemy against God as well is it not?

JW: Absolutely and even born again Christians will give an account to Jesus at the Judgment Throne of Christ, I Corinthians chapter 3, for what they have said, for what they have thought, what they meant by what they said, and what they have done since they were saved. I mean even Christians they’re salvation is not in question but whether they receive an reward or lose one it will be determined by a loving, gracious, wise, holy God at that Judgment Throne of Christ which could begin to happen today.

JD: Dr. John Whitcomb with insight into the end times.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The wide usage of blasphemous speech is a precursor to the end times.

As John Whitcomb mentioned just a moment ago the mark of the coming world ruler the Antichrist will be blasphemy, that’s Revelation chapter 13:1, 5, 6. The common usage of the Lord’s name in vain and other blasphemous terms among adults and even our children is evidence of how close we may well be to the end time scenario that is found in Bible prophecy. 

In the Last Days Satan will dispatch evil angels to attack Israel

Listen to Today's Program

JD: I understand that angels were created on the first day of creation but just briefly rehearse for us how angels were created.

RS: Well God obviously is the one who created them to serve him. The Bible makes it very clear that God created the angels before he created planet earth. Job chapter 38 he speaks to Job and he indicates that angels were present when God laid the foundation of the earth on day one of creation they sang God’s praises as they saw him create planet earth.

JD: And as I understand then when you look at chapter 1 of Genesis verse 31 it says that everything God had created was good. Therefore can we conclude these were all good angels, evil angels doesn’t come into existence until after that?

RS: You’re right and the way that happened was the most magnificent of all the angelic beings that God created described in Ezekiel 28 became consumed with pride thinking he could make himself just like God the sovereign ruler of the universe. And so this angel God changed his name to Satan which means enemy or adversary. He approached other angels to persuade them to join him in his revolt against God. And so there were some of the good angels that made that fateful choice and once they did they were locked into being evil angels.

JD: Now we jump that span in history and we come and focus on the time of the Tribulation. That’s seven years of judgment talked about in the book of Revelation. Would you explain some of the evil angelic activity? Though the good angels are going to play a major role evil angels will as well.

RS: We know very clearly from Revelation chapter 16 when the next to last judgment of the Tribulation is poured out upon planet earth that Satan, the Antichrist, the false prophet are going to send evil angels, their demons throughout the world to persuade the rulers of all nations of the world to bring their combined military together to one location. Zechariah chapters 12-14 make it very clear that location is the nation of Israel and that’s going to be a major role that evil angels are going to play toward the end of the Tribulation.

JD: Dr. Rennie Showers with the Biblical account of the creation of angels, the fall of angels, and the attack on the Jewish people by evil angels in the last days.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

God will allow evil angels to gather all the armies of the world to Jerusalem.

As Dr. Showers revealed to us in my conversation with him evil angels play a key role in the end of times. They will gather all the armies of the world to Jerusalem in an effort to try and stop the return of Jesus Christ. These evil angels will fail. Jesus will return. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
