Rise of Islam




The Bible predicted the rise of Islam and the information  is found in Revelation 9 verse 1 to 12.
Chapter 9 follow a pattern of judgment.It continues the messages of the seven trumpets. In chapter  9 we come to hear the fifth angel sounding his trumpet. In this article we will unveil this prophecy.
                   
                                                          Apostate Leader

1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.

In Bible prophecy a star represent a leader , and a fallen one is an apostate leader. A key was given to this apostate leader, a key represent power and authority over which the key is given to open or close. The key that this leader had, was to open the bottomless pit.  The word "bottomless pit" comes from the Greek word "abbusos," where the word "abyss," derived and it means a desolate empty place and is like the Word "void" used in Genesis 1:2.  So this desolate place was the desert of Arabia and the apostate leader was Mohammed who founded the Islamic religion.He opened the bottomless pit and smoke came out.

       Great smoke darkened the sun and the air.

  •          Sun give light . Jesus is the light of this world ( John 8:12;9:5) 
  •          Christ is known as the Sun of Righteousness       ( Malachi 4:2)
  •          God's word is light and truth.                              (John 17:17)
Darkness is the opposite of light, so if Christ is the Word, the Truth and the Life then  the darkness that darkened the sun and the air  are error/false teachings.  (Proverbs 4:19,Luke 11:34,John 3:19-21,1 Peter 2:9) . The smoke or false teaching that came out of the pit darkened the truth of Christ in regions under it's control.
                                                                            Out of Mecca

3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

A beast in prophecy is a symbol of a kingdom, and here we see a lot of locus/beast representing the different Arab tribes.

 Power as the scorpions of the earth have power
  • Scorpions have their powers in their tail
  • The ancient and honorable, he is the head; and the prophet that teaches lies,he is the tail (Isaiah 9:15)
So the power of the Arab hordes that came from the desert of  Arabia was the prophet that teaches lies (Mohammed the Prophet). When conditions are good hundreds of millions of locusts may hatch at the same time. After destroying the local food supply, they spread out eating up most of the green plant in their path, leaving devastation in their trail. By the time Mohammed died the entire Arabian Peninsula was under the rule of Islam.Over the next hundred years the Muslim hordes spread out like a swarm of locusts across the earth until the year 732 until they were defeated at the Battle of Tours in France, stopping the Islamic threat.

The sanctuary in Heaven

Let them construct a sanctuary for Me, that I may dwell among them. 9 "According to all that I am going to show you, as the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its furniture. Exodus 25:8,9 God told Moses to build him a sanctuary according to the pattern that he sees. Does that mean God created a blue print for him or is it a pattern of something in heaven? Copy of the True Tabernacle The sanctuary that they built in the wilderness is a copy of the one that is in heaven. Yes there is a sanctuary in heaven. So if there is a sanctuary in heaven , does that mean there is a High Priest also? They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: "See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain." Hebrews 8:5

True Riches

 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? (Luke 16:11) KJV New International Version So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? Would you want to be rich ? You may so know ,but truth is the majority of humankind would prefer to be rich then poor. And yet only a few people are rich while the rest are in the middle class or poor. Question? Which one would you rather be? 1. A farmer  2. A beggar I know the answer already. All of you would choose to be a farmer. Who in their right mind would want to be a beggar? A farmer provides to society and is a person who has resources; while a beggar, well, just begs and consumes. A farmer works hard to produce and provide, while a beggar waits for resources to be provided to him. One of the reasons rich people are few, is because it requires a lot of efforts to become rich. Supply chains While the beggar is waiti...

When God calls you. The fiery way to God

 Why is my life so hard ? Why are these things happening to me? I pray to God for healing but there's no healing. I pray to God for better finances but no money is forthcoming. I am so tired of these struggles. I am on the verge of given up. I might as live life the way I want to and hope to die soon. Have these thoughts ever come to your mind ? These are thoughts many will encounter as they ascend the mountain of God. For many of us life began good. We had a great time in our youth, we believed in love, we believed that the future was bright, we felt whole as a person. But somewhere along the way harship showed up. An illness, a broken heart, the death of a loved one, broken aspiration sent us into despair and grief. Suddenly life becomes dark and hopeless. But somewhere along the way, we heard the voice of God. We hear someone preached, " come to Jesus and all will be well, come to Jesus and He will give you the desires of your heart." And so we come to Jesus hoping tha...
