2016 Election: The Tribulation President?
November 2016

In the 2016 Presidential Election, businessman Donald Trump upset former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Throughout the year, Clinton led the polls and won the popular vote but on Election Day, Trump held all 2012 red states and broke through the blue wall to win Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and the 2nd district of Maine. Every state that Trump won, the incumbent senator also won which kept a Republican majority in the Senate. While this was a shock to the media, the Bible describes the next war between the US and China not Russia.

Now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant (Jeremiah  27:6).

You may think Donald Trump's victory is either good or bad. The answer is both. During the kingdom years, the Israeli people turned away from God and worshipped idols. Then God brought judgment to Israel through Assyria and judgment to Judah through Babylon. God is using Donald Trump to give the Christian Church a short respite from persecution to minister because time is short. The political class and even most Christians do not understand that Donald Trump victory brings judgment to America and the world that begins the seven years of Tribulation. God's plan is that all nations must fall before Jesus Christ reigns.

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God (1 Peter 4:17)?

Here are key prophecies of the United States being fulfilled before those seven years begin.

Daniel's Dream: Lion/Eagle/Bear/Leopard

Daniel 2 describes Nebuchadnezzar's statue as the gentile nations that rule Israel: gold head (Babylon), silver chest/arms (Media-Persia), bronze stomach/thighs (Greece), iron legs (Rome) and iron with clay feet (10 nation Tribulaton Beast). Daniel 7 describes the Tribulation kingdom as a lion (United Kingdom) with eagle's wings (United States), bear (Russia) and leopard (Germany). The mouth of the lion is English, the feet of the bear is socialism and the leopard's head was healed with German reunification. By Revelation 13, the eagle is torn away and the lion/bear/leopard gives power to the Antichrist (Revelation 17:12-13).

The beast [European Union] which I saw was like unto a leopard [Germany], and his feet were as the feet of a bear [Russia], and his mouth as the mouth of a lion [United Kingdom]. And I saw one of his [seven] heads [or nations - Germany] as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast (Revelation 13:2-3).

Four Horses

Most prophecy leaders that Four Horses of the Apocalypse occur within the Tribulation. However, the red horse of war (communism), black horse of trade (capitalism), chloros (green) horse of Death (Islam) and white horse of apostasy (false religion inside the church) have been fighting for centuries. The Antichrist  unites the four horses under a one world political, religious and economic system.

I looked, and behold a [chloros] horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth [Islam rules ~2 billion people], to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth (Revelation 6:8).

Seven Trumpets

The seven trumpets occur during a period of 120 years.Wormwood is Chernobyl and Destroyer is Saddam. World War I (trench warfare), World War II (sea battles, atomic bombs), Cold War (fresh water poisoned), Iraq War I (oil fire darkness), Iraq War II (helicopters, Abu Ghraib torture) have already occurred. World War III and Armageddon are still future. There is a correlation between the trumpets and Jewish holy days. See Jewish Calendar.

One woe is past [5th Trumpet]; and, behold, there come two woes more after this (Revelation 9:12).

Israel vs Islam

While Barack Obama and Senior Advisor Valerie Jarrett were Muslim sympathizers, Donald Trump's Senior Advisor is Jared Kushner, an orthodox Jew. As the president's most trusted staff member, son-in-law and friend of Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu, he focuses on peace in the Middle East and trade. The covenant (treaty) and trade bring us into the Tribulation. See Covenant.

He [Antichrist] shall confirm the covenant with many for one week [seven years]: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the [Jewish] sacrifice and the offerings to cease (Daniel 9:27).

China or Russia?

US relations with China and Russia will be critical during the next president's term. Hillary Clinton focused on Russian aggression but Donald Trump focused on trade with China. Revelation 9 describes World War III, a 200 million army that crosses the Euphrates (Iran, Iraq, Syria, Turkey). China fights the US during the first half of the Tribulation. Ezekiel 38-39 and Matthew 24 describe World War IV. A Russian-Islamic alliance fights Israel during the second half of the Tribulation. The seven years ends with World War V or Armageddon.

The second woe [6th Trumpet] is past; and, behold, the third woe [7th Trumpet] comes quickly (Revelation 11:14).

When you shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place [Jewish temple], (whoso reads, let him understand:) Then let them which are in Judea [West Bank] flee into the mountains (Matthew 24:15-16).

One American election has major prophetic consequences not only for Americans but for the whole world. Wake up Laodicean church! Stop being distracted by the world's system, know our time and encourage one another as we work together for the Kingdom.

Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke love and good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but encourage one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching (Hebrews 10:23-25).
