World War 3 is at Hand
While we wait for Iran's annihilation and its regime change, let's check our own Christian faith, doctrine and knowledge of Him and His words.
Dan 11:33-35 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by intrigue. And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time."
people who understand shall instruct many
During World War 3, faithful Christians will pick up war victims in their vicinity. With God's miraculous help, they will feed, care and heal them. Many will accept Jesus and the gospel of grace. These faithful Christians will disciple these new converts.
yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame
After the war which lasts possibly 6 months (many days), the introduction of the One World Religion and then the One World Order (Period of Tribulation) by the Antichrist will test the faith of Christians. These faithful Christians will reject and rebel against these abominable demands, which will send them to damnation. They will rather face persecution and martyrdom (fall by sword - killed and fire - burned on the cross) for their faith in Jesus.
when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help
God has found these faithful Christians just like Stephen, full of faith and the Holy Spirit, so He allowed them (they shall be aided with a little help) to be martyred.
Acts 6:5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch,
Gospel Preached during Martyrdom
Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Just like Stephen (Act 7), these faithful martyrs will preach the gospel of grace for all those enjoying the scene of them being martyred. Instead of crying in anguish and begging for mercy, all the onlookers (in front of TV or hand phones) will be amazed to see the faces of these martyrs glow like the rising sun, and on top of that they will be joyfully singing and praising God. This is an impossibility for they were not suffering pain, but instead wholeheartedly pouring out the love of God and joyfully preaching the gospel of Christ, their Saviour.
They will then pray and bless everyone and lead them to repent and accept Jesus and the gospel.
Mat 10:18-20 "You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you."
but many shall join with them by intrigue
All those watching the martyrdom will be dumbfounded for more and more Christians offered themselves to be martyred by openly rejecting the One World Order and the mark of the beast and exposing the Antichrist as Satan himself.
some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end
Until Rapture (time of the end for Christians), our merciful and loving Father will always allow pains, persecutions, imprisonments, sufferings and tortures to refine those weak brethren who are still in the flesh.
Gal 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
