prophecy.

Now here is your host withthis week's guest, Pastor Robert
(00:29):
Thibodeau.
Foreign.
Hello everyone everywhere.
Pastor Robert Thibodeau here.
Welcome to the RevelationWarning podcast.
We are so blessed that you'rejoining us here today.
Today our guest is T.S.
wright.
Again, he's coming back on todiscuss what we are seeing right
(00:52):
now and how it all relates towhat the Bible says will be happening
in the last days just beforeJesus returns.
And what's especiallyconcerning to me right now is how
we see the entire world andangst against Israel right now when,
you know, as we said severaltimes over these past, this past
(01:13):
year, all they're doing isreacting to the unprovoked barbaric
attack on innocent civiliansand trying to secure their land from
further attacks.
And if there's every ever anydoubt, we're living in the last days.
I mean, what we see happeningright now should prove it.
Amen.
We see the war expanding,which is exactly what the Bible says
(01:33):
would happen.
We even seen a week or so agothe United nations, you know, trying
to impose their authority overIsrael's sovereignty.
And in case you haven't readyour Bible, that's the exact scenario
depicted in the book ofRevelation that's going to take place
in the end times.
Now, Scott writes back today.
He's the author of the GodCenter Concept Journal, has a unique
insight to prophecy in the end times.
(01:54):
And I just want to jump rightinto it, our discussion today.
So help me welcome back theprogram Scott Wright.
Scott, welcome back.
Hey, great to be here, Bob,and look forward to another fun and
fruitful discussion.
Amen.
Amen.
Now, as we're doing thisinterview today, Iran last night
just launched over 200missiles at Israel.
Is this the escalation we'vebeen discussing would be coming?
(02:19):
So here's what I think ishappening and I've, I've stepped
back and have thought about this.
And obviously Iran firing themissiles into Israel is a thing,
but also Israel attackingLebanon is a thing.
You know, let's not forgetthat the IDF is advancing in that
(02:40):
territory.
And, and they are absolutelygoing after any and all of these
terrorist groups that surround them.
And so you can tell that thereis, there is a very, there is a strong
intentional effort is the wordI was looking for, a strong intentional
(03:01):
effort to try to remove anyand all presence away from Israel
in which they could build upagain, just like Hamas did in Gaza,
and, and potentially hurttheir citizens in a mass way.
Now, are they going to everprobably stop the Singletons, is
(03:24):
what I call them, the littlesingle terrorist acts?
Probably on some level, yes,but fully probably not.
And I think we know that, atleast not right now.
However, this thing thathappened in Mass on October 7th of
last year is they're going toprevent that again.
(03:45):
And I think part of what'sgoing on is that, number one, Israel
has knocked out several oftheir leaders.
It's like every time the nextleader pops up, they're not there
very long.
I mean, Israel has removedthem quickly.
Number two, we've seen themstart to advance in Lebanon and then
now, number three, Iran isattacked and they're just outright
(04:08):
attacking now.
And some of their missiles gotthrough, obviously.
So there's going to be amassive retaliation.
Iran has, becauseunfortunately the Biden administration
lifted all the sanctions off.
Iran has had the money tosponsor this and build up some of
(04:28):
their military arsenal, if youwill, to be able to do what they've
done.
However, I do believe thatwhat we have in at this moment is
that we've got a, we've got asituation where Israel is prepared
for this and they're gonna,and they're gonna do it militarily.
I, what I really hope is thatjust on a personal level is that
(04:51):
the Biden administration, ifthe Trump, and if, if he doesn't
win, you know, if Harrisdoesn't win, Trump administration,
that one of theseadministrations will step up and
do what Trump did, and that isto not allow Iran to function financially
and that is to put heavysanctions on them so they can't do
this again and build up their military.
(05:12):
I would not be surprised ifIsrael does not go after their, their
potential nuclear arsenal.
Now.
I, I am, I think that's thenext step.
So now what we have is asituation of escalation.
So here's the question and Ithought about this.
Is this going to bring a majorplayer into this, into this besides
(05:35):
the US Right now we'restepping back, but we're staying
like, it's kind of like we'restaying right on the sidelines as
the backup players that can beinserted into the game if it needs
to be.
So Russia right now is in aposition that I'm not sure they can.
Right.
China doesn't get involved inthis type of stuff.
(05:57):
They'll stay neutral, which iswhat they always do.
They've got their own thingsthey want to deal with, with Taiwan
and all of that.
But this situation right herewatching, I, I'm curious to see what
Russia does because they're,while they are definitely winning
the war in the Ukraine, there are.
They also have some issues andsome of their issues is that they've
(06:19):
depleted some of theirarsenal, some of their military and
they have, it has become veryunpopular amongst their people.
It was to in the beginning andit's even more so now.
So Putin has a problem.
He really can probably cannotcome to the rescue of Iran.
So Iran is now isolated.
Saudi Arabia is going to stayon the sidelines.
(06:40):
They're not going to getinvolved because we're there and
they wouldn't going to getinvolved anyway.
And I believe this whole thinghappened because Saudi Arabia was
going to normalize relationswith Israel.
That's exactly why I thinkthis happened back last October 7th.
So that's just kind of aballpark, an overview of what I think
is going on here.
I know and you talk about, youknow, Israel taking out the hierarchy
(07:03):
of, you know, Hezbollah andHamas now and Hamas and Hezbollah
now I guess in the order is done.
And you know, you can almostsee that it's hard for Iran to recruit
replacement leaders.
They're like, hey, we want youto take charge.
Oh no.
I mean, who wants to step up now?
(07:25):
I mean.
Yeah.
What.
How many of them have beentaken out?
It's.
Yeah.
I mean it's like, it's almostbecome to the point where it's like
one a day.
Yep.
Amen.
Amen.
And Israel, as you mentioned,is now actually making ground penetration
into Lebanon.
And in addition to the missileattacks on their leadership, they're,
(07:46):
you know, going after thesetunnels and which is supposedly more
extensive than even the onesthey had in Gaza.
Well, you know, as.
And I want to throw this inbecause I'm, I'm guessing that a
lot of the listeners here areprobably wanting to know kind of
what the feeling is of okay,so how does this attach to the end
(08:09):
times?
It's, it's what I've said before.
I don't think this is it.
What I think this is is likechess pieces being moved into position
that will eventually set upwhat will happen.
And, and look at it from this perspective.
This is like one of manythings we see.
It's what we talked about thelast time the advent of AI and it's
(08:33):
starting to take off.
It's not there yet but, butit's coming and it won't take that
Long Israel is setting upwhere there's going to potentially
be a situation where they can start.
Once this gets settled, what Ithink's going to start happening
is we're going to see morerelations normalized with other countries
(08:54):
in that area.
And I think it's going tohappen a little bit slower than maybe
what people think, but I thinkit's not going to be that long.
You have surveillance at alevel that, the capability level
of, level of surveillance thathas grown in leaps and bounds over
the last 20, 25 years, eversince 9 11.
(09:16):
That's what 911 did, is it?
It made the US governmentbecame a surveillance nation after
that.
So you have that and that'sgotten even stronger.
The ability of, of masstransportation and mass communication
on a level unforeseen in humanhistory that is just, it's, it's
(09:36):
even exploding now compared towhat it was five to 10 years ago.
And now we have thistechnological society.
You have Dubai, who is reallystarting to fit that description
of Babylon the Great.
You've got Israel in aposition where situ.
(09:58):
A situation where eventuallywe could have normalized relations
with the King.
I mean, and let's face it, thekingpin of that area is Saudi Arabia.
Right on top of all that, thisAI thing is just taking off.
We have surveillance at alevel we have, you know, people have
been talking about the markson the forearms and the foreheads
(10:19):
and you know, the barcodes,that type of stuff that's not far
fetched anymore.
These ideals are not farfetched anymore.
And so it's kind of like we'reseeing the wheel spin.
And I believe this situationin Israel is a setup to what will
eventually allow for this to happen.
And so it's almost,unfortunately, to say it this way,
(10:42):
it was almost necessary forthe events of the Bible to eventually
come true.
Oh yeah, you can see it.
I mean, I don't, I don't thinkthis is the end, but I think it's
setting all the ponds and the,the knights, the bishops and all
that stuff on the chessboardinto a position where it can happen.
Amen.
Amen.
(11:03):
Yeah.
Think about when you removeIran, if Iran and their influence
is removed, what is to start,what is to really stop these other
nations to start normalizingtheir relations with Israel.
That's right.
Amen.
Amen.
Now you talk about possibletargets and stuff.
You mentioned the nuclear facilities.
In addition to that, I've seena news report I believe was last
(11:25):
night, or it could have beenearly this morning, that Iran is
now worried about one of theirmajor oil refineries is located at
some port, but you know, downby where the hoodies have been operating
and all over there.
But anyway, this port containssomething like 80% of all of their
oil refinery and one locationand it's within missile range of
(11:52):
what Israel has for their response.
And you know, because they,the news commentators are talking
about possible nuclearfacilities and all that.
And he goes, well that'spossible, but we also have to look
at this because that wouldjust cripple Iran's economy, you
know, if they took out theiroil refineries.
So.
And that's a, that's apossible way of crippling their economy
(12:15):
and making a big statement allat the same time.
Exactly.
No, if they think about this,what if they hit both and then the
US Brings massive sanctionsagainst them again?
What are they going to do?
Yep, they'll have nothing.
What will it will lead to is arevolution over there because oppression
(12:38):
and starvation breeds rebellion.
Yeah, that's right, it does.
One of the things Putin'sworried about too, and his nation
is, you know, things aren'tgoing well for him over there with
the Ukraine and I mean, youknow, he's making end rows, but as
you said, it's costing him alot more than he was anticipating.
(12:58):
You know, so with that.
So what do you think the U.
S.
Response would be if, youknow, this thing escalates between
Iran and Israel?
I think they will do exactlywhat they've been doing and maybe
continue to put more presencein that area.
(13:20):
Just.
And we already are.
The United States is alreadyadvancing more people in more combat
troops and more ships andweaponry into that area right now,
building up a potential wararsenal over in the Middle East.
I think the focus is, is to,is a deterrent and I think the United
(13:42):
States will continue to playthat role unless Russia gets involved.
But I don't think Russia isgoing to get involved.
I think they're, they're in aposition they really can't.
And you know, I always say this.
God has a way of maneuveringthings to get what he wants.
And unfortunately for, youknow, in this particular realm, I
(14:07):
will just say this if.
And we'll be armchairquarterbacks five years from now
on all this, of course, butsaying this now, it seems like Russia
has their hands tied wherethey can't be involved in this.
It's going to allow Israel todo what needs to be done and it will
(14:28):
set up a scenario whereIsrael, like I said, it could lead
to the facilitation ofrelations Being normalized.
I mean, think about this.
Russia with their hands tied,Trump gets elected, and he is the
one that really pushed theAbrahamic Accords.
(14:49):
So we know what those areabout and the next step.
And even Biden was trying totake that to the next step and get
Saudi Arabia involved, but heallowed Iran to build up their arsenal
too much by lifting thesanctions, and they were now making
all the money to be able tofund all that.
And had he kept this sanctionsin place, Saudi Arabia would have
(15:12):
normalized that because Iranwould have never been able to do
what they did.
Right.
Exactly.
Stuff would not have happened.
And so, and, and we prettymuch know that now.
If Trump comes back in office,which, if I'll just say this, if,
if things continue to go asthey are, it looks like he will win.
If they continue to go.
(15:33):
We always have the Octobersurprises, and we've seen a lot of
crazy things happen inelections, so we don't want to be
too much of prognosticator here.
However, if he does win, Ibelieve that over that next four
years, you could see himcalming the waters down, and it allows
for relations to benormalized, potentially with Saudi
(15:56):
Arabia by the time he's done.
I think that will take acouple of years to let this all calm
down, but I think that willcome back on the table.
And I think he.
Between what Israel is goingto do and what he will do, it will
put Iran in a position thatthey're not going to be able to do
anything about it.
Amen.
(16:16):
And quite frankly, SaudiArabia is probably just fine with
that.
I don't think they're going tohave any problem as long as Iran
is contained doing that,because they're, they're not an ira,
you know, they're not.
Iran's not their favorite.
I will just say that.
Right.
Amen.
Amen.
But that leads up to the otherpart of the prophecies.
(16:41):
In the Bible, it says, youknow, peace, peace, but there will
be no peace.
So even though it maytemporarily bring that calming situation,
it's just, that's one morestep to actually what we're looking
for.
Yeah.
Eventually the, the peace willbreak down.
(17:02):
I think.
I think what you'll see isit'll slowly happen.
And then whenever the eventsof the world.
And I, I keep saying it alwaysseems like these 30s, during the
30s is the time of upheaval inevery century.
And, and we saw that in the1930s, which led to World War II
(17:27):
and in the greatestcatastrophe in human history.
But it also led to theCreation of Israel.
You go back to the 1830s.
That was the greatestexplosion of shifting a the globe,
almost the entire world froman agrarian society into an urban
society.
(17:48):
It wasn't just industrialization.
It was, it was basically mass.
It was the mass movement ofpeople is what it was.
It allowed with the traincoming on, the telegraph.
So we've seen this, the 1730s,what was that?
It was in a spiritualawakening, the great awakening, the
(18:08):
1530s.
We go back to the 1530s.
King Henry VIII, he said no more.
And there was absolutelynothing the Holy Roman Church could
do about it.
And it led to the EnglishReformation, which was the.
To me, the culmination of theProtestant Reformation was King Henry
VIII declaring himself head ofthe church.
(18:30):
And of course that kicked offthe fifth age of the church.
And so the 1430s, there wasall kinds of upheaval against the
church going on at that time,especially in the later 30s.
And then the printing presswas being developed during that time.
It was invented, which wouldbe the greatest invention, the most
impactful invention in thelast 2,000 years.
(18:54):
Yeah, I mean there's been,hey, there's been dictator.
There's.
There was a dictator and Ican't remember his name, but this
is what he said.
He said, I'd rather face thebarrel of 10,000 guns than to face
one printing press.
Amen.
I mean, he did.
I was like, well that makes sense.
That's how powerful theprinting press is.
(19:14):
It is.
I mean, you know, the media,the press, the.
I mean today now it's socialmedia has replaced mass media as
the ultimate, as the ultimatevehicle for transferring news because
nobody trusts mass media anymore.
It's got less trustworthinessthan Congress and, and the President.
(19:36):
It's.
But you, and you understandwhat I'm saying.
It's these 30s.
So it would make sense that inthe 2000-30s is where we see this
massive transition in the 20sare set up to that.
And this could just be anotherevent that's a setup.
Amen.
Amen.
Probably so.
Well, Scott, we're about outof time.

(06:40):
They're not going to getinvolved because we're there and
they wouldn't going to getinvolved anyway.
And I believe this whole thinghappened because Saudi Arabia was
going to normalize relationswith Israel.
That's exactly why I thinkthis happened back last October 7th.
So that's just kind of aballpark, an overview of what I think
is going on here.
I know and you talk about, youknow, Israel taking out the hierarchy
(07:03):
of, you know, Hezbollah andHamas now and Hamas and Hezbollah
now I guess in the order is done.
And you know, you can almostsee that it's hard for Iran to recruit
replacement leaders.
They're like, hey, we want youto take charge.
Oh no.
I mean, who wants to step up now?
(07:25):
I mean.
Yeah.
What.
How many of them have beentaken out?
It's.
Yeah.
I mean it's like, it's almostbecome to the point where it's like
one a day.
Yep.
Amen.
Amen.
And Israel, as you mentioned,is now actually making ground penetration
into Lebanon.
And in addition to the missileattacks on their leadership, they're,
(07:46):
you know, going after thesetunnels and which is supposedly more
extensive than even the onesthey had in Gaza.
Well, you know, as.
And I want to throw this inbecause I'm, I'm guessing that a
lot of the listeners here areprobably wanting to know kind of
what the feeling is of okay,so how does this attach to the end
(08:09):
times?
It's, it's what I've said before.
I don't think this is it.
What I think this is is likechess pieces being moved into position
that will eventually set upwhat will happen.
And, and look at it from this perspective.
This is like one of manythings we see.
It's what we talked about thelast time the advent of AI and it's
(08:33):
starting to take off.
It's not there yet but, butit's coming and it won't take that
Long Israel is setting upwhere there's going to potentially
be a situation where they can start.
Once this gets settled, what Ithink's going to start happening
is we're going to see morerelations normalized with other countries
(08:54):
in that area.
And I think it's going tohappen a little bit slower than maybe
what people think, but I thinkit's not going to be that long.
You have surveillance at alevel that, the capability level
of, level of surveillance thathas grown in leaps and bounds over
the last 20, 25 years, eversince 9 11.
(09:16):
That's what 911 did, is it?
It made the US governmentbecame a surveillance nation after
that.
So you have that and that'sgotten even stronger.
The ability of, of masstransportation and mass communication
on a level unforeseen in humanhistory that is just, it's, it's
(09:36):
even exploding now compared towhat it was five to 10 years ago.
And now we have thistechnological society.
You have Dubai, who is reallystarting to fit that description
of Babylon the Great.
You've got Israel in aposition where situ.
(09:58):
A situation where eventuallywe could have normalized relations
with the King.
I mean, and let's face it, thekingpin of that area is Saudi Arabia.
Right on top of all that, thisAI thing is just taking off.
We have surveillance at alevel we have, you know, people have
been talking about the markson the forearms and the foreheads
(10:19):
and you know, the barcodes,that type of stuff that's not far
fetched anymore.
These ideals are not farfetched anymore.
And so it's kind of like we'reseeing the wheel spin.
And I believe this situationin Israel is a setup to what will
eventually allow for this to happen.
And so it's almost,unfortunately, to say it this way,
(10:42):
it was almost necessary forthe events of the Bible to eventually
come true.
Oh yeah, you can see it.
I mean, I don't, I don't thinkthis is the end, but I think it's
setting all the ponds and the,the knights, the bishops and all
that stuff on the chessboardinto a position where it can happen.
Amen.
Amen.
(11:03):
Yeah.
Think about when you removeIran, if Iran and their influence
is removed, what is to start,what is to really stop these other
nations to start normalizingtheir relations with Israel.
That's right.
Amen.
Amen.
Now you talk about possibletargets and stuff.
You mentioned the nuclear facilities.
In addition to that, I've seena news report I believe was last
(11:25):
night, or it could have beenearly this morning, that Iran is
now worried about one of theirmajor oil refineries is located at
some port, but you know, downby where the hoodies have been operating
and all over there.
But anyway, this port containssomething like 80% of all of their
oil refinery and one locationand it's within missile range of
(11:52):
what Israel has for their response.
And you know, because they,the news commentators are talking
about possible nuclearfacilities and all that.
And he goes, well that'spossible, but we also have to look
at this because that wouldjust cripple Iran's economy, you
know, if they took out theiroil refineries.
So.
And that's a, that's apossible way of crippling their economy
(12:15):
and making a big statement allat the same time.
Exactly.
No, if they think about this,what if they hit both and then the
US Brings massive sanctionsagainst them again?
What are they going to do?
Yep, they'll have nothing.
What will it will lead to is arevolution over there because oppression
(12:38):
and starvation breeds rebellion.
Yeah, that's right, it does.
One of the things Putin'sworried about too, and his nation
is, you know, things aren'tgoing well for him over there with
the Ukraine and I mean, youknow, he's making end rows, but as
you said, it's costing him alot more than he was anticipating.
(12:58):
You know, so with that.
So what do you think the U.
S.
Response would be if, youknow, this thing escalates between
Iran and Israel?
I think they will do exactlywhat they've been doing and maybe
continue to put more presencein that area.
(13:20):
Just.
And we already are.
The United States is alreadyadvancing more people in more combat
troops and more ships andweaponry into that area right now,
building up a potential wararsenal over in the Middle East.
I think the focus is, is to,is a deterrent and I think the United
(13:42):
States will continue to playthat role unless Russia gets involved.
But I don't think Russia isgoing to get involved.
I think they're, they're in aposition they really can't.
And you know, I always say this.
God has a way of maneuveringthings to get what he wants.
And unfortunately for, youknow, in this particular realm, I
(14:07):
will just say this if.
And we'll be armchairquarterbacks five years from now
on all this, of course, butsaying this now, it seems like Russia
has their hands tied wherethey can't be involved in this.
It's going to allow Israel todo what needs to be done and it will
(14:28):
set up a scenario whereIsrael, like I said, it could lead
to the facilitation ofrelations Being normalized.
I mean, think about this.
Russia with their hands tied,Trump gets elected, and he is the
one that really pushed theAbrahamic Accords.
(14:49):
So we know what those areabout and the next step.
And even Biden was trying totake that to the next step and get
Saudi Arabia involved, but heallowed Iran to build up their arsenal
too much by lifting thesanctions, and they were now making
all the money to be able tofund all that.
And had he kept this sanctionsin place, Saudi Arabia would have
(15:12):
normalized that because Iranwould have never been able to do
what they did.
Right.
Exactly.
Stuff would not have happened.
And so, and, and we prettymuch know that now.
If Trump comes back in office,which, if I'll just say this, if,
if things continue to go asthey are, it looks like he will win.
If they continue to go.
(15:33):
We always have the Octobersurprises, and we've seen a lot of
crazy things happen inelections, so we don't want to be
too much of prognosticator here.
However, if he does win, Ibelieve that over that next four
years, you could see himcalming the waters down, and it allows
for relations to benormalized, potentially with Saudi
(15:56):
Arabia by the time he's done.
I think that will take acouple of years to let this all calm
down, but I think that willcome back on the table.
And I think he.
Between what Israel is goingto do and what he will do, it will
put Iran in a position thatthey're not going to be able to do
anything about it.
Amen.
(16:16):
And quite frankly, SaudiArabia is probably just fine with
that.
I don't think they're going tohave any problem as long as Iran
is contained doing that,because they're, they're not an ira,
you know, they're not.
Iran's not their favorite.
I will just say that.
Right.
Amen.
Amen.
But that leads up to the otherpart of the prophecies.
(16:41):
In the Bible, it says, youknow, peace, peace, but there will
be no peace.
So even though it maytemporarily bring that calming situation,
it's just, that's one morestep to actually what we're looking
for.
Yeah.
Eventually the, the peace willbreak down.
(17:02):
I think.
I think what you'll see isit'll slowly happen.
And then whenever the eventsof the world.
And I, I keep saying it alwaysseems like these 30s, during the
30s is the time of upheaval inevery century.
And, and we saw that in the1930s, which led to World War II
(17:27):
and in the greatestcatastrophe in human history.
But it also led to theCreation of Israel.
You go back to the 1830s.
That was the greatestexplosion of shifting a the globe,
almost the entire world froman agrarian society into an urban
society.
(17:48):
It wasn't just industrialization.
It was, it was basically mass.
It was the mass movement ofpeople is what it was.
It allowed with the traincoming on, the telegraph.
So we've seen this, the 1730s,what was that?
It was in a spiritualawakening, the great awakening, the
(18:08):
1530s.
We go back to the 1530s.
King Henry VIII, he said no more.
And there was absolutelynothing the Holy Roman Church could
do about it.
And it led to the EnglishReformation, which was the.
To me, the culmination of theProtestant Reformation was King Henry
VIII declaring himself head ofthe church.
(18:30):
And of course that kicked offthe fifth age of the church.
And so the 1430s, there wasall kinds of upheaval against the
church going on at that time,especially in the later 30s.
And then the printing presswas being developed during that time.
It was invented, which wouldbe the greatest invention, the most
impactful invention in thelast 2,000 years.
(18:54):
Yeah, I mean there's been,hey, there's been dictator.
There's.
There was a dictator and Ican't remember his name, but this
is what he said.
He said, I'd rather face thebarrel of 10,000 guns than to face
one printing press.
Amen.
I mean, he did.
I was like, well that makes sense.
That's how powerful theprinting press is.
(19:14):
It is.
I mean, you know, the media,the press, the.
I mean today now it's socialmedia has replaced mass media as
the ultimate, as the ultimatevehicle for transferring news because
nobody trusts mass media anymore.
It's got less trustworthinessthan Congress and, and the President.
(19:36):
It's.
But you, and you understandwhat I'm saying.
It's these 30s.
So it would make sense that inthe 2000-30s is where we see this
massive transition in the 20sare set up to that.
And this could just be anotherevent that's a setup.
Amen.
Amen.
Probably so.
Well, Scott, we're about outof time.
