The heavenly signs, the Sixth Seal of the Book of Apocalypse

Mónica Boixeda Madrilenian

In the first four seals or prophecies of the Book of Revelation (the last book of the New Testament) the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse appeared, bearing false prophets, wars, famine and death; the Fifth announced The Great Tribulation, where the Christians are persecuted; in the Sixth Seal four angels appear who bring horrific natural disasters to the planet. When the Apostle John opened the Sixth Seal, it augurs terrible catastrophic events: earthquakes without precedent, the darkening of the sun and the moon, a rain of meteorites of devastating effect, the opening of the heavens and the quake and movement of every piece of land in the earth. In addition, all human attempts to be safe will be in vain. Some people say that these events have already occurred, but experts ensure that the heavenly signs are yet to come, and that these catastrophic events will strike the earth as never before, leaving the worst signs of horror and hardship. The earthquake will reach such dimensions that it will trigger landslides and volcanic eruptions, and the dust, the ash and the smoke will cover the earth so that the sun will not shine and the moon will turn red. But first, a fifth angel appears to ask the first four not to harm the earth until they have sealed the servants of God. Thus, 144,000 anointed ones will be blessed to preach the gospel of Christ, without fear of death. If the mission of the four angels were to harm the earth through natural disasters, the prophecy is ongoing… Throughout history many natural disasters have ravaged the planet, causing... read more

The Great Tribulation, the Fifth Seal of the Book of The Apocalypse

Mónica Boixeda Milanese

After the first four Seals or Prophecies of the Book of Revelation (the last book of the New Testament), which show the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse announcing their prophecies – false Christs and false prophets in the first one, wars in the second, starvation in the third and death in the fourth, now comes the Fifth Seal announcing the Great Tribulation, where the saints and the believers suffer martyrdom and severe persecutions. So, The Great Tribulation is the indiscriminate persecution against the followers of the Christian faith after Jesus has ascended to heaven. Matthew 24:9 defines perfectly the Fifth Prophecy: “Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name´s sake.” This Verse refers to the Messiah Followers Tribulation, which would begin at the time of Christ and will intensify over the centuries. Thus the Jewish nation would be persecuted and hated by other people and beliefs. Israel would be one of the hardest hit because of the Great Tribulation. Already in Roman times, the soldiers entered into the temples destroying everything they found. Over two millennia, the Jewish nation has lost billions of lives… The most shocking and bloody time in the history has been the anti-Semitic World War II, with the black episode of the Holocaust. Some years later, when the western world understood all the horrors and penuries that the Jewish people had suffered, they wanted to return them their national territory (in 1948). But still today the terrorist acts against the Palestinian and the Israeli people do not stop, and... read more

Screens are invading us!

Mónica Boixeda Milanese

You still haven’t opened your eyes and your phone rings the annoying alarm. You get up and while the coffee is heating you, turn on your computer to check your emails or to listen to some music. You also turn the plasma TV on to see the news. Then you go to your work and spend the entire day in front of a screen, big and wide enough to hide behind it. Have you noticed that since you woke up you´ve been in front of four screens? The nowadays children expect a more digital future. But this is our time, our evolution, and we must adapt to it! In ten years we have offices full of papers on desks with computers loaded folders. In ten years we have passed from offices full of papers to offices with computers loaded with folders. There are children who do not study with colourful notebooks, but they also have laptops. They learn how to properly adjust the chair, the screen, how to move the fingers across the keyboard and they understand the language of technology. But if you do not take care of your posture, your mental and physical health will be affected, because of a simple screen. The hearing will be tired and upset with a hypersensitivity to light, itching, irritation, dizziness, watering, blurred or double vision, headache … You’ll have eyestrain and with a hypersensitivity to the light, itching, irritation, dizziness, watering, blurred or double vision, and also headache. To avoid this, it is necessary to keep the screen clean, focused, with a homogeneous light and to rest occasionally. It´s also... read more
