📖 Birth Pangs of the End Times — Episode 8 — The Gospel of the Kingdom (Matthew 24:14)

Jesus said, “This gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the world as a testimony to all nations — and then the end will come.”

What is the gospel of the kingdom, and how is it different from the gospel of salvation? Why did Jesus call Himself the Son of Man from Daniel 7? And what does it mean for us to live as ambassadors of the King instead of tourists waiting for heaven?

In this episode, we explore the five essential components of the gospel of the kingdom, the unspoken truce many Christians live under, and the permanent consequences for rejecting Jesus’ Lordship.

The Fifth Seal of Revelation reveals the martyrs under the altar crying out for justice. But why does God delay Satan’s downfall until the full number of martyrs is complete?

In this episode, we open the Scriptures to explore:– Revelation 6:9–11 and the testimony of the martyrs.– How Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 foretold waves of persecution.– Why the witness of God’s people becomes evidence in Heaven’s court.– How martyrdom plays a role in casting Satan down in Revelation 12.

When the Fourth Seal of Revelation is opened, a sickly green horse rides out—and Death rides it, with Hades following close behind. But what does that really mean for us today?

In this episode of the End-Time Disciples Podcast, we open the Bible to answer these urgent questions:

- Should we believe the Islamic Antichrist theory?

- What the “wild beasts” of Revelation include?

- Why judgment begins in the temple of God? Why will many who think they’re Christians face the same judgment as unbelievers when the Green Horse rides?

- What the Bible really means when it talks about Hell, Sheol, Hades, and Gehenna?

We explore the meaning of “Death takes the body, Hades takes the soul,” the difference between believers, unbelievers, and God’s remnant, and why the Green Horse’s mission combines all the judgments of the first three horsemen, then adds pestilence and wild beasts.

All this in less than one hour.

📖 Featured Scriptures: Matthew 24, Luke 21, Revelation 6, Ezekiel 9 & 14, Hebrews 2, and more.

If you’re serious about preparing for the end times—not with fear, but with faith—this conversation will challenge, encourage, and equip you to stand when others fall.

This episode dives deep into the meaning of the Black Horse of Revelation 6:5–6—a symbol of end-time famine and spiritual judgment. The team explores how this isn't just about food shortages and inflation, but also about a famine of hearing the word of God (Amos 8).

Scripture, history, and modern trends are brought together to warn of both physical calamities and a spiritual collapse coming within the church—the great falling away of 2 Thessalonians 2:3.

👋 Welcome to our first End-Time-Disciples.com video discussion!

In this roundtable conversation, four Christian disciples with diverse perspectives sat down to explore one of the most misunderstood—and most urgent—passages in the New Testament: 2 Thessalonians 2:1–12.

We talked plainly about:

* The coming of the Lord and our meeting together with Him

* The “apostasy” of believers and the rise of the “man of sin”

* Who (or what) is “the restrainer”

* Why deception and delusion are increasing—and who’s being deceived

* How transhumanism and false spiritual movements may be part of Satan’s last stand

* What it means to truly call on God’s name

But at the heart of it all is this message of encouragement:

Don’t be alarmed. Don’t be deceived. These things must happen first.Yes, the Day of the Lord is coming—but God has already told us the signs to watch for, and how it will unfold.
