The Calm before a Violent End

“The day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.” 2 Peter 3:10

I haven’t told anyone this before but I unfollowed Charlie Kirk on social media the morning of his assassination. I had nothing against him, I had just drifted more to the political middle than I had ever done before. I was upset and outraged at the manner in which the illegal immigrants were being handled and by the way people on the right cheered others pain. I believed and still do that Donald Trump is the Anti-Christ. This not having anything to do with politics but because I believe that the time is now and he is the only candidate and his personal character attributes and behavior are in complete opposition to the character and attributes of Jesus Christ. So naturally I started to pull away from those who support him including Charlie Kirk.

Charlie Kirk was assassinated on September 10th 2025. I was one in the crowd of tens of thousands who went to Charlie Kirk’s memorial in my hometown of Glendale, Arizona on September 21, 2025. It was a surreal moment. The people who I had been pulling away from and then suddenly we are dragged back together through a tragedy. This isn’t about politics, this isn’t about Charlie Kirk’s politics. I had never spent much time listening to Charlie as he was an apologist of the faith and a debater. As much as some think of me as a debater every day week month and year I grow more tired of debate and as I was pulled away from the conservative party under Donald Trump it was natural to pull away from people like Charlie.

Around September I was also caught up in the possibility of the rapture happening during Rosh Hashanah around Sept 23-25. Lot’s of things made sense. The Acronyms for “no one knows the day and hour” etc lining up with the Feast of Trumpets aka Rosh Hashanah. However my own timeline and belief about when the tribulation might start was always Spring 2026 but who doesn’t like to cut the line? I was excited by the possibility of a fall rapture. Now, I’m done talking about or thinking about the rapture or about specific dates for prophetic events.

With that said, with the anticipation of prophetic events that lined up for September including a possible middle east peace deal and end to the Gaza-Hamas, Israel-Iran wars the air was prophetically thick in September. On September 10th, 2025 the morning of Charlie’s assassination I drove into work and as I entered the parking lot I got a wave of something not being right. I was flooded with anxiety and something felt really wrong so I decided to use a sick day and just drove back home. I went back home and went back to sleep. I woke up went to the gas station for a soda drove home and as I was parking my wife told me through text “Charlie Kirk had been shot in the neck and was taken to a hospital.” My immediate thought was he was grazed in the neck and will probably be fine. Then, I looked up the video. Like a lot of us did at the time.

I have seen hunting videos, war footage, executions, beheadings but nothing affected me like that moment. The bullet struck his jugular and impacted the spine. You couldn’t design a quicker death. For Charlie, he picked up the mic and said his last word “Violence” and the next moment he was in paradise. Whatever you think of Charlie Kirk he was a faithful Christian, Father and Husband. He was in all ways a good man above reproach. He followed the sabbath to focus on God and Family. When people say Charlie Kirk preached hate it was because they disagreed with his politics, they consider his politics hate. But his politics flowed out of scripture. Homosexuality is sin, transgenderism is incorrect abortion ends a human being’s life. I get it, if you disagree with scripture and you call scripture hate, that’s fine but you won’t ever find a clip of Charlie Kirk actually saying anything hateful, you just wont. As the day’s and months since his death past on and the world and myself became more familiar with what Charlie actually said and did in his life, we realize the man was an intellectual giant who could debate anyone at anytime from Oxford to Harvard all without having completed college. He worked hard, he studied harder. The man was a saint.

With all of that context and personal experience and opinion now I want to get to what I felt, and what I spiritually heard.When George Floyd was killed, before the national looting riots and chaos that followed upon immediately watching the video I heard what I believe was a demonic call to action. You might say it was just natural moment of justified anger but it was something else. I remember it because weeks later we saw it happen. I heard in the spirit, “Burn the city to the ground.” It turns out I wasn’t the only one to hear it. What followed was mass national protests which spiraled into riots, into looting, death and most evidently in Minneapolis, arson. I remember watching entire large buildings being burned to the grown and then I realized, that voice I heard wasn’t my own, it was a spiritual beacon from the realm of the demonic as a call to violence. Immediately after I watched Charlie’s blood poor from his neck I knew his life was gone. At that moment I also heard something spiritual. In texting my brother I said “This world is coming to a violent end.” That’s what I heard, the world is about to be shattered and rocked by violence. Not as a result of Charlie’s assassination but as a result of the evil that is in us yet to be extinguished.

At the time I had gone through waves, months and months of internal anguish about what I call “Arafel.” I’m a huge fan of the Dune books. In Dune Paul and the other messianic figures use prescience which is like visions of the future to navigate a path forward for mankind. It takes all the way until fourth book, God Emperor of Dune before we are told what those who see the future were trying to steer mankind away from. Without ever addressing it before Frank Herbert sum’s it up in a very obscure Hebrew word. The word is Arafel which means “Thick Darkness”. That is what those with prescience saw at the end of time, a thick darkness and the word Arafel used to encompass a smothering apocalypse from which humanity will not escape. That is how I internally explain the feeling’s I was getting. Driving to work wondering why? Driving home looking around thinking it’ll all be gone soon.

It’s easy to dismiss prophecy until it happens. It’s easy to call people interpreting the times as those under “religious psychosis”. We heard this a lot around September with the false prophet Joshua and those who followed him bringing the rapture doctrine to the spotlight. I agree it is safer to do nothing, to interpret nothing, to assume that everything will continue the way it is. This is the path most people take. It’s important to understand the root. I came back to prophecy because I felt Donald Trump could be the anti-Christ even though I voted for him. On election day I told God “If he is the Anti-Christ, I will oppose him.” That’s what I’ve been doing. It has gotten to the point when so many things line up, I no longer need the confirmation and may not be here for it when it happens that he is the one, the Son of Perdition.

The peace deal for Gaza did start on September 23rd, 2025 and was signed and witnessed to on October 13th, 2025. What was started then has not concluded. We remain in this holding pattern, the calm before the storm. Phase 2 of the Gaza peace deal to be rolled out shortly. Donald Trump to take his seat at the head of the Board of Peace over Gaza. Saudi Arabia, Syria and others may soon join the Abraham Accords. So although the rapture didn’t happen, I believe September was still prophetically monumental. We do not fully understand God’s timing or how prophecies will be played out but they are being fulfilled. I believe we are in the middle of the peace deal that leads to the tribulation. A new middle east, the land divided, paid for with a price, with the help of a foreign god (Islam). Trump is making peace between the Jewish Nation and it’s Muslim neighbors. A peace that we have never seen in the middle east. It’s easy to underplay this because 90% of the media hate Trump and naturally underplay and counter anything he says or does. You don’t hear Christians sounding the alarm about Trump being the Anti-Christ because they are so blinded by earthly politics and the man which they voted for.

People are generally simple minded with loyalties, my team verse your team and whatever my team does is right and whatever your’s does is wrong. That’s why you often see people on the right generally excuse the deranged behavior of the man who should be presidential. His midnight insults, deranged social media rants, nasty name calling and general un-Christ like behavior. It’s easy to excuse these things when what we see on the other side is genocidal Abortion, children being mutilated because of gender dysphoria etc.. We see what we know is evil and assume whatever is opposite must be right. If they are wrong how could we also be wrong? That mindset is exactly the type of mindset Satan aims to deceive with. Yes, the Anti-Christ can be an 80 year old American Republican who claims to be Christian who half country hates. The bible clearly says Satan is a deceiver and a liar, he appears as an angel of light and those who follow Satan do the same thing.

This thought that the Anti-Christ must arrive by means of which we already conclude as dark and evil is non sensical. I am more suspicious of those who appear as angels of light but have fruits as dark as night. Donald Trump is the furthest thing from Christ a human being can get and I’m not going to relitigate the ways, I think deep down we all know. The pride, the vanity, the lust, the selfishness, the anger, the insults, the craving and utilization of earthly power etc.. The point being, we are still on this timeline. We still exist under these circumstances and what was first started in September will have an ending possibly in the Spring. There will be a conclusion to the peace deals and middle east current crises and ultimately to the world.

Most of what I write is not for those here and now. I do not care if I get a view or not. In fact in writing such long post’s in a world driven by Tiktok brain’s where we endlessly scroll video, reading is the stumbling block to true knowledge and those who read will always unlock more than those who simply view content on their devices. What I heard when I saw Charlie Kirk’s blood drain from his body is still true today. The way of the current world order will end violently. The peace among nuclear powers will not last forever, the gap between world war’s will not be eternal. With all of the news and everything cycling around us, Arafel remains on it’s way. For those in Christ an escape, a wedding supper and for those who remain on earth, utter devastation. No apocalypse movie could prepare you for everything that is coming and I try not to dwell on the plagues lest anyone should think I fear. I do not fear Arafel or the Tribulation as we Christians know it, whether Christ raptures us Christians or not my fear is not for myself but for you. For the doubting Thomas’s who needed to see in order to believe. For those who are looking for answers when the world begins to crumble beneath their feet and maybe stumble upon these words.

The warning is not so you can hoard, it is not so you can prepare your homes or buy guns and ammunition. The warning is for the spirit, for the soul at shock. The world is going to undergo a change and already is. Like the sleeping woman who’s water just broke, so we will be who remain. Tranquility then destruction, peace than war. We slept for quite long enough and I feel in the next few months we may start to see the signs intensify, the contractions closing in on each other until the time of arrival.

I feel another event like Charlie Kirk’s assassination is coming, something to wake us up from our false sleep to the reality of where we are in time. No one want’s to believe they are the one’s to see the end after everything we have seen before us. After almost 2,000 years how could it be us? But before Christ arrived there were wise men on their journey to Him. See the signs, see what’s going on in the middle east with Israel, with Trump and understand the time may be short.

“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.” – 1 Corinthians 15:52
