I väntan på Jesus

 

 

In church history, the following numbers are important and holy (most of them have a significance in the bible, but those who haven't, get their significance from church history): 3, 7, 12, 40, 44, 70, 77, 120, 300, 330, 900, 1200. 

 

To understand my numbers and my number symbolism in this essay, you have to remember that I suppose that 300 years has been added to the beginning of the Middle Ages (the "phantom time theory"). This is also prophetic in itself, because 300 is a holy number in church history. It is 3 X 100 or 30 X10, Jesus' age in the beginning of his ministry, amplified by 10 (ten is viewed in the Bible as a complete and perfect number). 

 

Then to the numbers:

 

 

About 300-330 years was given to the original, genuine, unspoiled apostolic church, the church that kept the traditions of Jesus and the apostles, yes the church of the first church fathers, which were the best ones, those who kept the traditions of universalism, for example. The church began in 25-28 AD, when Jesus began his ministry at his baptism (see this article). After 300-330 years the Catholic Church arose, it was somewhere between the First Council of Nicea in 325 and the end of Constantine's regime, and the edict of Thessalonika in 380. The Catholic Church, a very, very pagan church, with a lot of pagan bullshit, superstition and horror, crushed the original church and brought satanic (yes, I mean it!) doctrines into the church, doctrines like the one about eternal hell (preached by for example Tertullianus and Augustinus), and the one (which is not at all as bad) about Jesus being God, equal to the Father himself (the dogma of the Trinity). 

 

Wikipedia writes in this article: 

 

 

 

900 years is an important number in church history. The Catholic Church reigned alone in the western world during ~325-1530 (which actually should be 1230, because of the phantom time hypothesis). It is 900 years, 3X300 years, a tripling of the time of the original unspoiled church, and it was a dark time, with a lot of persecution and inquisition. 

 

Around 1530, Protestantism began to crush the Catholic Church in many European countries. This Wikipedia-article says the following: "Lutheranism would become known as a separate movement after the 1530 Diet of Augsburg, which was convened by Charles V to try to stop the growing Protestant movement."

 

Twelve centuries were given to the western church before big parts of it (especially in the North) was laid under the yoke of Protestantism, which was only a little better than the Catholic Church in the beginning, and which degenerated very quickly into a new form of papalism (remember the inquisitions of the Protestant world, for example the Protestant witch hunts. See also this article). 

 

 

 

Three centuries were given Protestantism before it gave rise to industrialism in England, which was a descent into hell, a hell worse than that of the Catholic Church. Industrialism began in earnest after the time of Romanticism, in the beginning of the nineteenth century, although it started in the middle of the eighteenth century. The sociologist and historian Max Weber (1864-1920) traces the roots of capitalism to Calvinistic work ethics (see this Wikipedia-article). Industrialism was at the heart of the beginnings of capitalism, so I would say that industrialism also came from Protestantism. 

 

Four centuries (the time that the people of Israel was in slavery in Egypt at the time of Moses) were given to Protestantism to enslave western civilization before sekularism came and liberated it, first in the form of liberal theology, that liberated us from dogmatism. This happened in earnest with the rise of modernism around 1930, 400 years after 1530. 

 

This last age of history, the age of modernism and modernist religion, began in the beginning of the twentieth century, will perhaps last for about 120 years, as long as Moses lived. It began around 1920-1930, and will last until the Second Coming of Jesus, which will perhaps take place in the middle of this century, around 2045, according to the Norwegian prophet and Smith's Friend, my father's friend Gunnar Bertelsen, who died in 2019. Also from 1904-1905, the time of the Welsh revival, history's greatest revival, to the "rapture" and the beginning of "the Great Tribulation", in 2024-2025, there is 120 years. 

 

The modernist religion only partly, or, on the surface, liberated humanity. To the core it was just industrialism deepened, enslaving humanity with capitalism, technology and globalization, destroying nature in the process. 

 

There are more prophetic details to this "last age of humanity":

 

The last genuine revival of Protestantism, yes of all humanity and all human history, was the 1904-1905 Welsh revival, the last revival before modernism began, which was also the spark that ignited the Pentecostal revival, of which the same could be said, that it was the last genuine revival in history. The start of this revival was 120 years before the "Rapture" and "the Great Tribulation" probably begins, in 2024-2025. 

 

 

1) The first is 44 years long (as long as the Finland-Swede radical pietist prophet Lars Ulstadius,1650 – 1732, was in captivity for his very strong and holy prophecies, this makes it a very holy number in church history), and marks the time during which the Pentecostal revival was still holy (Albert Lunde's revival in Norway was holy, so were also Frank Mangs' revivals in Finland, Sweden and Norway), spreading over the whole world (this is an important feature in this last genuine revival of history, that it is global. No other revival has been that before). Then something really serious happened. The state of Israel was born in 1948, and then some very important words by Jesus was fulfilled, namely these: 

 

 

What happened 1948 and after? Yes, 1) Israel (actually, in the beginning, Britons and rich Jews from the western world) occupied Palestine and killed and displaced many of its indigenous people (see this Wikipedia-article), which was a disaster, but, still, a fulfilment of Bible prophecy, because the Jews got their land back, and 2) the United Nations, the UN, was formed during the period right after the Second World War. This was a gigantic disaster, a beginning of globalization, and this really marked the end of the times of the Gentiles. And 3) a few years before, one of the greatest sins ever committed by the protestant world had been committed, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki with atomic bombs, a worse crime than even the Holocaust, because of the effects on nature and coming generations. 

 

Maybe these three horrible sins (and two world wars, full of protestants and catholics fighting, full of believers fighting, the world was not that secularized yet) was one of the reasons why the age of Grace for the Gentiles ended in 1948, and the spirit of God left the established churches, in order to live underground, in small house congregations and in conversation meetings only. Even one of the last churches to be corrupted, the always old-fashioned Smith's Friends, my mother congregation, was soon corrupted after its founder, Johan Oscar Smith (1871-1943), died. I know very, very much about this. The Smith's Friends were, for a long time, almost the last standing soldiers in Christianity. 

 

What happened to the church after 1948? Exactly what Jesus had prophecied, and this is hard to believe. An apostasy of enormous proportions began around 1948-1950, modernism entered the church in the western, rich countries, and took over completely. A "cultural revolution" happened in the Christian churches, around at the same time as communism (China's first "cultural revolution") took over in China (in 1948, see this Wikipedia-article). This was a culture of "spiritual father murders", and worldly music, worldly dressing, the acceptance of TV, mobile phones and computers, and worldly philosophies (like existentialism, liberalism, liberal theology, feminism, LGBTQ and postmodernism) and worldly habits took over in the church. Even the hippie-movement partly entered the church, the church became a slave of worldly fashion. What the world did, it did. In all areas, like a puppet or a marionette. This was "the second Great Apostasy", where the first was the one in the fourth century after Christ. So big an event it was. 

 

But the maybe strongest apostasy was the beginning of the false charismatic phenomena in the Christian church. This began with the "healing revival", that began slowly in 1946. Then the Christian church began to focus on outward "signs and wonders" instead of holiness and separation from the world, as the mark of a revival, the latter which always before had characterized revivals, also the Welsh revival. This new modern thing began in earnest with the Latter Rain movement in 1948, exactly 44 years after the Welsh revival began. 44 years is a prophetic number in church history because of the prophet Lars Ulstadius, and it signifies spiritually a strengthened 40 year period, and 40 years or 40 days in the Bible signifies spiritual preparation and a period of testing, trial or probation. The church was tested by modernism for 44 years, and fell at last. What a sorrow in heaven. I guess that in heaven they do not play music composed after 1950, for these same reasons, the music became impure in the Christian churches after that, infested with worldliness.
