It happened. Today, May 8, 2018, jaws dropped as the world watched the Trumpet President of the US announce from the White House that his nation is withdrawing from the so-called Iran Deal, which the Obama administration celebrated as its greatest achievement. Even though the “highest level of economic sanctions” the President signed immediately after his speech are directed against Iran, the other contracting parties of the P5 + 1 (the UN Security Council's five permanent members plus Germany) together with the whole EU feel like they have been hit over the head.

Trump said his warning is serious, and what he promised to do was not just for Iran, but for all other nations that would help Iran. In plain language, this is a threat to Russia, China, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the European Union. Even Kim Jong-un, who is said to be involved in supplying Iran's missile technology, is likely to lose a pound from shock.

These countries’ reactions to assure Iran of their loyalty and persistance within the parameters of the ruins of Trump's collapsed contract are therefore a challenge against the US. That is how Trump wanted it. He wanted to make America great again. Now it stands alone. The land of the second beast of Revelation, which was instrumental in introducing the mark of the beast, has only one ally left: Satan in person.

The world is calling for peace and security as preparations for World War III are in full swing. Everyone is familiar with the age-old prophecy of the apostle Paul:

For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. (1 Thessalonians 5:3)

It is not the theme of this short article, however, to expose the political and Masonic backgrounds of this game which the world powers are playing—we have done that elsewhere—but rather to set forth another fulfillment of an important prophecy.

In the broader sense, it has to do with the sixth trumpet, which will begin on June 3 with a throne line on the Orion trumpet clock. The frightening text of the second woe begins as follows:

And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. (Revelation 9:13-15)

After the trumpet text’s five months of the symbolically suffered torment of a long-endured waiting time in a world that seems to be drowning in LGBT immorality and Islamic conquest through uncontrolled immigration, the last of the Christians have decided where to place their banner. The sifting is over; the wheat has been separated from the tares. Each one knows where he stands: either with pink wig and gay skirt on the side of the UN tolerant ones, or on the side of the One who named homosexuality the image of the beast. Either you welcome the union of Christendom with the rapists of their own “virgins”, on the side of the “refugees” who founded their own Sharia party, or you’re silenced by Facebook, YouTube, and the mass media, on the side of those who are shedding tears over spiritual Jerusalem.

On May 25, the true anniversary of Christ's death on the cross, the new Data Protection Act enters into force in Europe. It is the end of freedom of speech, network freedom, and freedom of expression—the end of freedom itself, and the culmination of the time when no one can buy or sell without having the LGBT mark on their foreheads or the sickle-and-star banner in their hand. Anyone who fights back gets a knife to the neck or a gender brainwash, after which he no longer knows whether he is male or female.

How can a Christian who is plagued by these two species of locusts anymore ask, “Where was the torment of the five months of the fifth trumpet?” Many would rather have died than to watch the inevitable spread of debauchery and Satan’s religion of hate.

Are you prepared to die for your Lord yet? Death will no longer flee from you! The fifth trumpet will end on June 2, and its five months will end on May 13/14, when the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem will provoke even worse turmoil in the Arab world. The countdown to the end of Babylon has been under way since the 70-week prophecy was re-initiated on December 6, 2017.

Let's take a quick look behind us: By 2015, the end of the world was being awaited by the movement of the Fourth Angel’s message of Revelation 18, when the sodomy law went into force in the US on June 26. We had been hearing trumpets with a certain sound, but had not yet understood that Revelation 7 still had to be fulfilled:

And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. (Revelation 7:1-3)

By divine decree, humanity was to be granted a respite, because not all of the people who would stand on God’s side as His witnesses had been found.

Like today, May 8, 2018, we were standing on June 26, 2015, just a few days before the start of the sixth trumpet on the divine trumpet clock. At that time, the clock was pointing to July 8, 2015, as its beginning. We were busy teaching Adventists—who are still waiting for the “Sunday Law” due to a misunderstood (or literalized) prophecy of Ellen G. White—that prophecies are symbolic, and therefore it meant not a Sunday law in contrast to the Bible Sabbath, but the twin of the Sabbath, namely marriage. Humanity was permitted to take both of those institutions with them from Eden. Thus homosexual marriage is the mark of the beast, and while we were trying to teach the Adventists that, we overlooked the fulfillment of a prophecy that was happening in front of us, which I personally had been investigating for years. It is about a “paper” presented by an angel, with which he held back the four angels from Revelation 18, as the passage in Revelation 7 also prophesies.

I saw four angels who had a work to do on the earth, and were on their way to accomplish it. Jesus was clothed with priestly garments. He gazed in pity on the remnant, then raised His hands, and with a voice of deep pity cried, “My blood, Father, My blood, My blood, My blood!” Then I saw an exceeding bright light come from God, who sat upon the great white throne, and was shed all about Jesus. Then I saw an angel with a commission from Jesus, swiftly flying to the four angels who had a work to do on the earth, and waving something up and down in his hand, and crying with a loud voice, “Hold! Hold! Hold! Hold! until the servants of God are sealed in their foreheads.”

I asked my accompanying angel the meaning of what I heard, and what the four angels were about to do. He said to me that it was God that restrained the powers, and that He gave His angels charge over things on the earth; that the four angels had power from God to hold the four winds, and that they were about to let them go; but while their hands were loosening, and the four winds were about to blow, the merciful eye of Jesus gazed on the remnant that were not sealed, and He raised His hands to the Father and pleaded with Him that He had spilled His blood for them. Then another angel was commissioned to fly swiftly to the four angels and bid them hold, until the servants of God were sealed with the seal of the living God in their foreheads. {EW 38.1-38.2}

Since Ellen G. White had even seen twice—in two different visions—this “thing” that the angel swung up and down in his hand, it must be something important, something “tangible” that has to be deciphered.

It must have been something like a piece of paper, a record or a contract. In the early days of this movement, we even believed that God might in a special way deliver us the names of the 144,000 to be sealed, so that we could finish our work. It is far from it, as it turns out.

If we take a closer look at the history of the Iran nuclear deal, then we understand what it is that the angel held in his hand, and how the “powers were held back on the earth,” and what prevented the four angels at the Euphrates in 2015 from loosening the four winds of the sixth trumpet.

The Iran nuclear deal framework was a preliminary framework agreement reached in 2015 between the Islamic Republic of Iran and a group of world powers: the P5+1 (the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council—the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, France, and China—plus Germany) and the European Union.

Negotiations for a framework deal over the nuclear program of Iran took place between the foreign ministers of the countries at a series of meetings held from March 26 to April 2, 2015 in Lausanne, Switzerland. On April 2 the talks came to a conclusion and a press conference was held by Federica Mogherini (High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy) and Mohammad Javad Zarif (Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran) to announce that the eight parties had reached an agreement on a framework deal. The parties announced, “Today, we have taken a decisive step: we have reached solutions on key parameters of a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action,” which they intended to complete by June 30. Announcing the framework, Foreign Minister Zarif stated: “No agreement has been reached so we do not have any obligation yet. Nobody has obligations now other than obligations that we already undertook under the Joint Plan of Action that we adopted in Geneva in November 2013.”

The framework deal was embodied in a document published by the EU's European External Action Service titled Joint Statement by EU High Representative Federica Mogherini and Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif Switzerland, and in a document published by the U.S. Department of State titled Parameters for a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action Regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran's Nuclear Program.

On July 14, 2015, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action between Iran and the P5+1 and EU, a comprehensive agreement based on the April 2015 framework, was announced.

Even in March or April 2015, we could have realized that there might be a delay in the end of the time of mercy, but we were still hoping to be home soon. What the angel held in his hand was, in fact, the nuclear deal with Iran, and that he swung it up and down meant the ups and downs of the negotiations for this agreement, testifying to the difficulties that all parties had in reaching a solution.

The Euphrates flows through Iran, Iraq and Syria. There’s so much going on in Syria today that the Adventist Church has to drop propaganda pamphlets [Spanish] to the community from a great height to convince their sheep that the prophecies about Damascus and Syria in Jeremiah 49 and Isaiah 17 have no relation to current world events.

Early in 2017, we published in The Seven Lean Years how long this “thing” in the angel's hand would hold back the world powers, without ourselves even having deciphered it. We had received a new trumpet clock from God, which is also founded on the Bible, and indicates reversed time. Now we are in the fifth trumpet again, and the nuclear deal is off. No one holds back the four angels anymore, and the four winds of World War III will be loosed at the Euphrates, punctually on the hour, day, month and year.

The prophecy about the US in Revelation 13 will then also have come to fulfillment, because its trumpeting president will have called fire from heaven upon his nation and the nations of the world by quitting the nuclear deal.

And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, (Revelation 13:13)

When the storm has spread over the scorched earth, the time will have come for the two witnesses of Revelation 11 to finish their work, before August 20, 2018, when the plagues will begin with the blast of the seventh trumpet.

Woe, woe to a world with blind eyes!
