HIStory, Our Future: An Overview

Last Updated: 07/02/2025 12:27    | Print This Page | |

This page and series of Bible studies is very much a work in progress. The outlines and scripts will be available in their raw forms as I’m working on them. I will be updating these studies primarily as I develop them into videos presenting the content. The studies will all be focused on the presentation content and I will then update the original site pages.

This page is intended to be an introduction to HIStory, Our Future: Pearls for the Bride Bible studies. It is for those who shy away because it’s too confusing, too controversial, or just never knew there were such accurate foreshadows, mirrors, and prophecies in the Bible. It is also for anyone who has already studied Bible prophecy, but perhaps with insights you may not have heard before. Given the amount of information, this is a jumping off point to look at individual studies and their consolidated perspective pages. I found it very beneficial to focus on topical studies to get to the root of understanding terminology often discussed in prophecy, but sometimes misunderstood.

There is a lot of information here, and just as I’ve struggled to put it together, I know most will struggle to follow along as it is an investment of time to dig into the depths of God’s Word, but the reward is truly unmatched. It took me a lot of introspection, repentance, and study to grow in the Spirit. While I still have a lot of growing to do, the foundation of understanding has built into a clearer view of the puzzle of prophecy laid out in scripture that I would like to share for those with interest. I pray as you recognize the time approaching for the end of life as we know it and the glory to come that you too are weaned from the carnal and become more heavenly minded, conforming yourself to the image of Christ.

1 Corinthians 3:1-3
And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
Hebrews 5:12-14
For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Isaiah 28:9-13
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? [them that are] weaned from the milk, [and] drawn from the breasts. For precept [must be] upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and] there a little: For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. To whom he said, This [is] the rest [wherewith] ye may cause the weary to rest; and this [is] the refreshing: yet they would not hear. But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and] there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

Concepts and understanding are spread throughout the Old and New Testaments. Each piece and perspective is true and accurate, yet many times only the bringing together of these shines a light on the full meaning. Many times doctrines and paradigms have been built on one part of scripture to the leaving out of other defining scripture. This has led to false doctrine and stumbling blocks in understanding. Admittedly, I may not fully understand things properly, but these studies are meant to get into the meat of the Word, examining history, archaeology, science, and prophecy from the foundation of the Bible. It is up to each of us who believe to search the scriptures for validation of what is right.

2 Peter 1:19-21
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
1 Corinthians 14:29-33
Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. <[The Bible interprets itself] For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
Amos 3:7
Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Mark 13:22,23
For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
John 14:26
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

HIStory, Our Future is my attempt to bring you on a comprehensive and scripturally based walk through of historical prophecy to show the fulfillment of God’s Word in the past to build your faith in the promise of fulfillment in your future. These are pearls for the bride of Christ, Yeshua revealing to His friends what He is going to do so that we are not in darkness and can be awake, aware, and unaffected by deception that is most definitely here and will only grow. The Holy Spirit worked through the prophets of old to bring us the Word of God. We have all we need within the Word to be protected from deception.

Bible prophecy is not only about understanding the future, but is also a proof that God knows and foretells the end from the beginning. Much of prophecy is never fully realized until after the events foretold. However, as we look from the last days throughout known history according to scripture, we have a more clear perspective than anyone previously of the Truth of God’s Word and its application to our lives and our understanding of our future. God has revealed His plans to His servants the prophets, whose words we read in scripture. These are meant to build our faith in God’s Word and therefore our relationship.

Isaiah 46:9-13
Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it. Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness: I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
Isaiah 48:3-7
I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass. Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass; I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them. Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them. They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
John 15:12-17
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. These things I command you, that ye love one another.
1 Thessalonians 5:1-11, 14-28
But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 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. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as [do] others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. Brethren, pray for us. Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss. I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

God’s wrath is coming on the disobedient and many are blinded by the things of this world while distracted from, or with little faith in, God’s Word. I believe this is a small part of the prophesied apostasy of the end times. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 They are also blinded by wicked people for whom God’s wrath is coming. This is why I place importance on watching what is going on so that I can alert those with ears to hear what I am seeing. We are not of this world, but we are the salt and light of it through Christ. I believe understanding what is really going on in the world in light of Bible prophecy will be an adrenalin shot to the heart of all who believe the Word of God. May it bring you greater faith and hope and love to share with those around you.

Unbelievers are not going to expect what is coming, but believers are supposed to understand and be in the light about it so that it doesn’t take us like thieves. Those who aren’t in darkness shouldn’t be surprised by anything that happens. It is easy in these modern times to be of the opinion that everything will just continue on as it has for millennia and this physical world we live in will remain as we know it. However, there is a time coming where heaven will invade earth and life as you know it will never be the same. The God of heaven and creation will dwell amongst His creation and each and every one of us will have to have made a decision to accept His plan of redemption or not, to exist eternally with Him or exist eternally apart from Him. The choice has been set before us, it is ours to make alone. I choose life.

The Lord always does things in accordance with His Word, which never changes. Yet if we allow it, it will always change us to conform to the image of Christ. While not every detail of history is apparent, there is a framework that revolves around God’s chosen people, Israel. So while not every detail is readily apparent we know God’s way from His Word. And so our actions, whether in accordance with His Word or contrary to it, will produce an expected result because God has made known the benefits and consequences of our actions whether aligned with or against His ways respectively.

Revelation 19:7-10
Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed [are] they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See [thou do it] not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

The HIStory is also related to that last part of the passage, the fact that the testimony of Yeshua is the spirit of prophecy. The Bible is centered on Christ, His selecting a peculiar people, His being born of a virgin through that people, His foreshadows of the plan for mankind and His interaction with us through appointed times and other commands viewed as odd to the rest of the world. He is the Creator, He is the salvation (יֵשׁוּעַ Yeshua), He is the Redeemer of mankind.

Hebrews 10:5-7
Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: In burnt offerings and [sacrifices] for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

Fulfilled prophecy, in my opinion, is one of the best tools to bring the reality and precision of Bible prophecy to life. The Word of God is alive. We are told loud and clear that we should understand God’s plan. He went to the trouble to spell it out for us so it must be important. Almost 27% of the Bible is predictive prophecy yet all of scripture is in support of this narrative, and it is all written about Christ. The purpose of scripture is for us to know our history, our God, and our Savior to be in relationship with Him based on how He describes Himself in His Word.

1 John 4:7-11, 17-19
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. ... Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us.

My desire is to focus on Christ and His plan for those who follow Him now, as well as His chosen people Israel, while hopefully making the confusing parts a little less so. This is thanks to the varied work of those much smarter than myself as well as insights from scripture that I feel the Spirit has led me to in answer to prayer. These insights almost always involve examining the text in context and taking God at His Word.

There is a lot of debate within Christianity on specific beliefs regarding the end times prophecies and I feel that, for some, this has pushed them away from trying to understand what God said about what is going to happen. It is my desire not to assume I’m right in all that is presented, but rather build on what I’ve learned from God’s Word and lay it out as best I can in hopes that it will expand your understanding and hopefully bring a little clarity to some of the confusion.

This collection of studies is meant to present the information I’ve found in my research from both history and Bible prophecy regarding the center of prophecy, Yeshua (Jesus) the Christ. Revelation 19:10 It is my honor to be sharing these studies in hopes of sharing the understanding God has given others and myself from His Word and the simultaneous confidence, faith, and peace in the coming turmoil and feeling closer to understanding God’s plan. I believe in the end the Bible will be revealed to those who love and honor it, taking God at His Word. I hope that this most of all leads to you reading the Word of God personally and taking it for truth, bringing you to a closer relationship with your Creator, Yeshua.

My prayer for you is that you grow your faith and understanding of the coming times to remove all doubt and fear, instead comforting and reminding all who read this to put your focus back on your relationship with Yeshua. All the things you have may be gone in the future, all you’ve built and worked for may go up in smoke. Trust in God, understand what is coming, and find that peace that passes all understanding. Share that with those in the world who have no hope.

1 Corinthians 14:1-5
Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
Proverbs 25:2
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
Acts 17:11
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
These studies are a work in progress.
