The Last Days Series Volume 1

114 evidence keeps piling up on its self to a generation that has no excuse not to faithe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Unlock your minds, folks, using the day=year principle; unlock your mind, whether we have to convert it with a conversion factor because we are coming from a BC standpoint, or just taking the solar calendar year, which I will show you later, that can be done to prove these verifiable facts. The Lord has given us the key that unlocks these mysteries.

Go to Revelation 12 and let us read verses 1-6 first.

Revelation 12:1-6 “And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and three score days.”

Now after reading these verses you probably have some questions as I did. Who is the woman? Who is the man child? What are the twelve stars? Who is the red dragon? Who are the third part of stars? Now I also have verse six here, which I will get to in a minute, but not yet.

Let me just give you the definitions of all the things I pointed out in this verse and then we will go back into defining it a little bit more. The man child is Jesus Christ. He is the only one that matches this description who rules with a rod of iron. How do we know that? Go to Revelation 19:15, “And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations; and he shall rule them with a rod of iron.” Who is this verse speaking of? The one “dipped in blood and His name is called the Word of God (vs. 13)”. We are talking about Jesus Christ. He is the one that rules with iron. Go back to verse one.

“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven (means literally, a great sign in heaven) a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet, her head a crown of twelve stars.” Go back to Chapter 12. The twelve stars are the twelve tribes which are the sons of Jacob. The red dragon is Satan in these first five verses who tried, by the way, to defeat Jesus at the cross. The third part of stars in verse four is the fallen angels with Satan as their general. He is their leader. The woman (we first see her in verse one) is the Jews. So you got that? The man child is Jesus; the twelve stars are the twelve tribes; the red dragon is Satan; the third part of stars is the fallen angels that followed Satan and they have him as their leader, their general; and the woman is the Jews. Look at verse one. I want to point something out which I will come back to in future teachings. “And there appeared a great wonder [a sign] in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun,”—sun there being the Sun of Righteousness, S-U-N, as Jesus is referred to many different times, specifically in the Old Testament. Where can you see that? In Malachi 4:1-3 in the Old Testament; go there with me. It is worth stopping here to make this point so you understand all the players in these verses.

“For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings”. By the way, look how “sun” is spelled there, s-u-n. Once again, this only describes Jesus Christ. “and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.” And
