Revelation 12: Prophecy and Fulfillment

Sheila and Jeremiah would like to thank you for all the messages of love and encouragement received after the release of Part 1 of Revelation 12 and the Nuremberg Connection. This means a lot to them. Rob Skiba was a gifted public speaker and presenter for many years. As an actor, his ministries, his podcasts, radio shows, and his public appearances at many conventions.

He worked tirelessly researching and preparing. willing to discuss and debate his beliefs, and encouraged others to discuss and debate. He has published many books, posted many videos, and participated as a guest on many podcasts, radio shows, and conventions. Sheila has been at his side, working with him on all his projects in the background, and being there for support.

However, she has never been a public speaker. In fact, she is terrified of speaking on camera or in front of audiences. She has only made one presentation with Rob and felt this wasn't her calling. Sheila is still in grief over the loss of her best friend husband, and it is very difficult for her to smile and talk about Rob.

It takes great courage to be reading this last presentation that Rob prepared, so please be sensitive and understanding. Jeremiah Jeremiah and family and friends are there to support her. Part 2 of this presentation follows, and Part 3 to 6 will follow soon.

As Sheila and Jeremiah mentioned in Part 1 video, there are many other projects that Rob was working on, including Seed. Again, thank you, and now for Part 2 of Revelation 12 and the Nuremberg Connection. The concept of multiple fulfillments of prophecy.

The abomination of desolation, Daniel 9.27, and one week shall establish the covenant with many, and in the midst of the week my sacrifice and drink offering shall be taken away. And on the temple shall be the abomination of desolations, and at the end of time an end shall be put to the desolation. 1 Maccabees 1.54 Now the fiftieth day of the month Kaslu, in the hundredth, fortieth, and fifth year, they set up the abomination of desolation upon the altar. and builded idol-altars throughout the cities of Judah on every side. Matthew 24 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, whoso readeth let him understand.

Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains. 2 Thessalonians 2 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, so that he As God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. The concept of multiple fulfillments of prophecy. The war in heaven. Revelation 12.3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven.

And behold, great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his head. 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 had a place prepared of God, and they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not. Neither was their place found any more in heaven.

And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world. And he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now has come salvation and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ. For the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.

And they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea!

For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man-child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness. unto her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.

And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood, which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which kept the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. A reasonable case made by Preterist. Thus there was a star resembling a sword, which stood over the city, and a comet that continued a whole year.

Thus also before the Jews'rebellion, and before those commotions which preceded the war, when the people were come in great crowds to the feast of unleavened bread on the eighth day of the month Nisan. And at the ninth hour of the night so great a light shone round the altar and the holy house that it appeared to be bright daytime, which lasted for half an hour. This light seemed to be a good sign to the unskillful, but was so interpreted by the sacred scribes as to pretend those events that followed immediately upon it.

Besides these, a few days after that feast, on the one and twentieth day of the month Ayar, a certain prodigious and incredible phenomenon appeared. I suppose the account of it would seem to be a fable, were it not related by those that saw it, and were not the events that followed it of so considerable a nature. as to deserve such signals for before sunsetting chariots and troops of soldiers in their armor were seen running about among the clouds and surrounding the cities moreover at that feast which we call pentecost as the priests were going by night into the inner court of the temple as their custom was to perform their sacred ministrations they said that in the first place they felt a quaking and heard a great noise and after that they heard a sound as of a great multitude saying Let us remove hints. This is from the Wars of the Jews, Book 6, Chapter 5, Section 3. He goes on to describe the eastern gate of the inner court, opening on its own.

Then he says, Another first and early second century Roman historian named Tacitus also wrote about this event. The concept of multiple fulfillments of prophecy. A reasonable case made by Preterists. Prodigies had occurred which this nation, prone to superstition, but hating all religious rights, did not deem it lawful to expiate by offerings and sacrifice.

There had seen hosts joining battle in the skies, and the fiery glean of arms, the temple illuminated by a sudden radiance from the clouds. The doors of the inner shrine were suddenly thrown open, and a voice of more than mortal tone was heard to cry that the gods were departing. At the same instant there was a mighty stir as of departure. Some put a fearful meaning on these events, but in most there was a firm persuasion that in ancient records of their priest was contained a prediction of how at this very time the East was to grow powerful and rulers coming from Judea were to acquire universal empire. Tadikus Histories Book 5 A medieval historian named Sefir Yisipin Perhaps merely relaying the same story as told by Jesus, Antacetus also wrote, A reasonable case made by Preterists.

For one year before Bespian came, a single great star shining like unsheathed swords was seen over the temple. And in those days, when the sign was seen, it was the holiday of Passover. and during that entire night the temple was lit up and illuminated like the light of day and thus it was all seven days of the passover all the sages of jerusalem knew that it was a malevolent sign but the rest of the ignorant people said that it was a benevolent sign now it happened after this that there was seen from above over the holy of holies for the whole night the outline of a man's face the like of whose beauty had never been seen in the land and his appearance was quite awesome.

Moreover, in those days were seen chariots of fire and horsemen, a great force of flying across the sky near the ground, coming against Jerusalem, and all the land of Judah, and all the horses of fire and riders of fire. When the holiday of Shavuos came in those days, during the night the priests heard within the temple something like the sword of men going and the sound of men marching, and a multitude going into the temple. and a terrible and mighty voice was heard speaking, Let's go and leave this house. This came from Sefer Yosephon, A Medieval History of Ancient Israel, Chapter 87, Burning of the Temple. And there are other quotes along similar lines which you can read here.

As justification, preterists will typically cite a prophecy from Isaiah 66 15 which says, For behold, Yahuwah will come in fire and his chariots like the whirlwind, to render his anger with fury and his rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh, and the slain of the Lord shall be many. The problem is, if you read the previous chapter, you will see this is in a millennial reign context.

At the time when the wolf lies with the lamb. and a person dying at 100 years of age is considered a child. So the very proof text they use is actually in and as yet to happen. Future fulfillment of prophecy, not past.

Now for another interesting war in heaven event.
