What Is Eschaton Transition
PLEASE CHALLENGE MY BLOG ENTRIES WITH PRAYER & TAKE THE TIME TO STUDY, RESEARCH, AND COMPARE MY WORDS WITH THE WORD OF GOD, THE BIBLE, TO ENSURE THEY ARE IN AGREEMENT.
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15
“ (17) That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him: (18) The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints.” Ephesians 1: 17-18 KJV

Eschaton Transition is my blog dealing with the study of eschatology, and biblical & secular conspiracy theories, specifically related to Judeo-Christian prophetic predictions. To better understand what I will be posting, below are definitions of the following words Eschaton, Transition, Eschatology, Prophecy, Biblical, Secular and Conspiracy Theory from the New Oxford American eDictionary. Understanding these words, I believe, will help and act as a foundation in understanding future posts, the biblical eschatological predictions I will focus on, and related matters I will write about.
Definition of Eschaton Transition:
"Prophetic biblical events that are manifesting but will not be fully realized until their appointed time."

To conclude, my
end goal is to show the number of prophecies that have come to pass and are
coming to pass (transition) since the rebirth of the nation of Israel on May 14, 1948 {Amos 9:14-15} after its destruction under
the rule of 1st century AD Roman Empire {Jeremiah
44:11}.

Here is the sinner’s prayer if you are moved to give your life to Christ –
“Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name. Amen.”
