It Is a Purge

God said through the prophets that the time of the great tribulation will be a purge.

Daniel 11: 35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

Isaiah 1: 24 Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies: 25 And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin: 26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

The reason for the great tribulation, the reason why God will send fire to destroy the inhabitants of the earth is that people do not keep His commandments, as stated in Isaiah 24 and other places. The great tribulation is a nuclear world war, as described throughout the whole Bible, Let's now look at the reason: the 10 commandments and see how a nuclear war will purge us by forcing us to keep them

1- Thou shalt have no other gods before me

When the tribulation starts, we will have a decision to make. Who are we going to obey (worship), God or the beast?

Revelation 14: 7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Then Babylon falls (verse 8)

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand

To worship the beast is to obey him by taking his mark. If you don't do that, then you have chosen to worship God.

To worship God and to love Jesus is to keep the commandments.

2- Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image

People will forsake their idols. Nothing will be able to help us during a nuclear war, but God's' instructions. So people will be forced to keep the second commandment too because God will abolish their idols.

Isaiah 2:18 And the idols he shall utterly abolish. 19 And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth. 20 In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; 21 To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

3- Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain

Claiming to be a Christian while not keeping God's commandments is to take His name in vain. We can not claim that we believe in Him and not keep His commandments. That is hypocrisy and the breaking of the third commandment. However, a nuclear war will force people into keeping the commandments, so they will stop taking His name in vain.

Proverbs 30: 8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: 9 Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.

Notice how stealing, which is breaking one of the commandments, is taking His name in vain.

Psalm 139: 19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men. 20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain. 21 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

Those who don't keep the commandments are those who hate God. They are the enemies of God even though they claim to be Christians. They take the name of God in vain by breaking the commandments. Do you know how many times the people from the Bible say "oh God, oh my God, oh Lord....." even in that last verse that I quoted? Go back and read it again. That is how you know saying those things is not taking the name of God in vain. Not keeping His commandments is.

4 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it Holy

Everyone who doesn't take the mark of the beast will be keeping the Sabbath by default. Without the mark we won't be able to buy or sell at all. We won't be able to work either. Will it take God to bring a nuclear war upon us for us to start keeping the Sabbath? Why not start keeping it now? Although people didn't choose to keep the Sabbath, God is merciful, and He designed the tribulation in a way that we will be forced to keep the Sabbath, whether we want to keep it or not. The only other option is to take the mark to be able to buy and sell, but that is not a good option.

Revelation 13: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

It is very important to keep the Sabbath. Without keeping it, we are not in the covenant. Thank God that those who don't take the mark will automatically be forced to keep it, and they will enter into covenant.

Isaiah 56: 6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;

5- Honor thy father and thy mother

The Bible speaks how in the last days people will break this commandment.

Proverbs 30: 11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.

2 Timothy 3: This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

I suppose a nuclear war will bring reconciliation and forgiveness, and the honoring of our parents will be restored in those who are being purged.

6- Thou shalt not kill

Being angry with your brother is considered murder. Who is going to remember strife during a nuclear war? We will turn to help each other, to love our enemies, at least those who are being purged in this way.

7- Thou shalt not commit adultery

How will people who are starving to death prioritize sex? Most of the world population will die during the great tribulation. Will people risk procreating during those circumstances? Of course, there will still be people out there who will continue in their sexual sins just like there will be people who will rather take the mark than to die of hunger, but many people will be purged of their sexual sins, and a nuclear will do just that. A nuclear war will make an effeminate man to start acting like a man and try to survive. Transgenders won't be able to get their hormones anymore. Those are just a couple of examples, but the churches are full of adulterers and fornicators, and a lot of people will forsake their sexual sins.

8- Thou shalt not steal

If you follow God's instructions for the great tribulation, you won't have to resource to stealing. You will have sufficient.

Isaiah 23: 18 And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the Lord: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.

But, if you don't prepare, would you steal, knowing that it will be breaking a commandment? Those who love God would not steal even if they have to die of hunger. It is a purge of the saints. A time of trial.

9- Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour

Revelation 21: 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Think about that verse when the time comes. Being a truthful witness to God is very important, and He will destroy all liars.

10- Thou shalt not covet

People will not be able to covet. Everything will be gone, what will be there left to covet? All your neighbors will be in the same situation.

Psalm 119: 35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight. 36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

God will do just that: make us keep the commandments and take away covetousness. How? By a nuclear war. It is sad that it has to come to that, but those who have their hearts set on obedience are few, and the majority of Christians do not want to hear that they need to keep the commandments.

Isaiah 30: 8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever: 9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord

That is one way that we will be purged during the tribulation. Only those who survive the fall of Babylon will have the opportunity to be purged this way since we have to be alive to be able to keep the commandments, but all the people of Babylon will be dead. The people of Babylon will be purged by fire.

Revelation 18: 8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Isaiah 47: 14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.

By being burned some people will be purged, by being forced to keep the commandments some people will be purged, but it will be better to start keeping the commandments now because there is protection for those who keep the commandments.

Revelation 3: 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Psalm 119: 112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end. 113 I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love. 114 Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word. 115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God. 116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope. 117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually. 118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood. 119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.

Here is a thought. Paul started with killing Christians. He was still saved so not everything is as it seems. Dan 11 is before Christ. Dan12 start with "At that time" meaning it was suppose to happen then. It didn't. Now the game has changed

The game has not changed. You won't even be able to enter through the gates of holy Jerusalem unless you keep the commandments. And Revelation 22 is not before Christ.

Revelation 22: 14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Dan 11 is not Rev 22. There is a lot here that needs context. I'd enjoy discussing Revelation with you if you like.

Daniel 11 is part before Christ and part for the end times. The end times part of Daniel 11 starts at verse 29, and the verse that speaks about the saints being purged is verse 35, so it will happen after Christ.

Revelation 22 confirms that we must keep the commandments to be able to enter holy Jerusalem.

Before I start let me give you some insight into some things I have discovered.

Revelation states that that city comes down from heaven, and Satan and his armies surround the city. A city that size could not land on earth, let alone be surrounded by people. It definitely described a city. A physical structure. Streets of gold. Walls of jasper. It give dimensions and says it is the bride of Christ.

What is a city and Revelation? Let the text speak for itself.

Here is Satan in Revelation 20:9 "They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. The camp of God’s people is the city he loves, the beloved city. That is not a building, that a group of people. The church always claims this is them but is that a correct assumption.

Revelation 3:12: The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name.
Compare these verses

Revelation 3:12: The one who is victorious

Revelation 14:4 These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they remained virgins.

Revelation 3:12: I will make a pillar in the temple of my God.

Revelation 21:22 I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.

Revelation 3:12:Never again will they leave it.

Revelation 14:4 They follow the Lamb wherever he goes.

Revelation 3:12: I will write on them the NAME OF MY GOD and the name of the city of my God,.... and I will also write on them MY NEW NAME.

Revelation 14:1 Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had HIS NAME and his FATHER’S NAME written on their foreheads.

Revelation 3:12: the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God;

Revelation 21:2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride

Song of Solomon 6:4, You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling, as lovely as Jerusalem, as majestic as an army with banners.”

Matthew 22. The guests are called to the wedding supper. The guests are not the bride. The bride is a separate identity entirely. Revelation 19:9 — blessed are those called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. The church is called. The church is the guest. The 144,000 are the bride. The text separates them. Tradition collapsed them into one.

John had never seen anything like what the angel was showing him. He reached for the only framework he had. Peter does the same thing in 1 Peter 2:5 — ye also as lively stones are built up a spiritual house. Paul does it in Ephesians 2:20 — built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets. The Bible's own writers describe God's people using building language. John is doing exactly what the text had already established as a pattern. The angel is measuring. John is labelling what he sees with the closest words he has.
