THIS IS REAL-TIME PROPHECYThe time for casual faith has passed. The Shepherd is calling His own, and those who hear His voice must respond with obedience, surrender, and truth.It’s time to get your house in order—not just your dwelling, but your heart, your priorities, your witness. The refining has begun, and the remnant will rise. Choose this day whom you will serve, for the King is preparing His return. Listen to the podcast version: THE GLOBAL REFINING FIRE STARTS NOW:There are two kinds of Christian prophets rising in this hour: those who discern real-time events through the lens of active prophecy—connecting headlines to heaven’s timeline with Spirit-led urgency—and those who intellectualize prophecy, cloaking it in rhetoric, theory, and theological distance. The former speak with fire and clarity, awakening the Church to what God is doing now. The latter often speak with polish but lack power, offering analysis without anointing. One stirs repentance and readiness; the other risks reducing revelation to mere debate. Only the Spirit-filled prophet can rightly divide the Word and release it with authority.
The refiner’s fire is not punishment—it’s preparation.This is not an opinion—it is a prophetic warning. Whether self-proclaimed believers agree or not is irrelevant. What is about to unfold will shake the foundations of the world in ways never before witnessed. The refiner’s fire, soon to be released, is a holy heat that burns away compromise, pride, and impurity, leaving behind a vessel fit for the Master’s use. It is the final birth pangs before the Rapture. It is how God transforms believers from rhetorical opinionates into radiant reflections of Christ. The Refiner’s Fire is not merely personal—it’s prophetic. As Malachi 3:2–3 declares, “He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver…”—but the fire doesn’t stop at the individual, it will spread to the global masses. It will convict. It will awaken the authentic and provoke depraved rage in the fake Christians. This is why our Lord calls it separating the goats from the sheep. In this hour, God is refining His people not just for holiness, but for harvest.The furnace of affliction is forging voices that carry weight—not just words. As believers are purified, their witness becomes unmistakable. Their lives radiate the beauty of Christ, drawing the masses not by persuasion, but by presence. Zechariah 13:9 speaks of a remnant refined by fire who “will call upon My name, and I will answer them.” This remnant becomes the spark that ignites revival. Their surrender becomes the sermon. Their purity becomes the invitation. However, listen carefully, this refiner’s fire will ignite hatred and violence like never before in history. It is the final call for all Nations before the Rapture ensues. “Arise, shine, for your light has come… Nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” Isaiah 60:1-3 The Refiner’s Fire prepares the Church to shine—not with opinions and religious rhetoric, but with the radiance of Christ. And in that light, the nations will press for a solution, a global antichrist, or return to THE CHRIST. Prophetic Declaration: The Fire and the Falling AwayWe are in the hour of the Refiner’s Fire—a divine furnace ignited not to destroy, but to distinguish lies and false teachers. As the flames of purification intensify, the true Church (sheep) is being separated from the counterfeit (goats). The fire exposes what rhetoric cannot hide. It burns away compromise, reveals hidden allegiances, and calls forth a remnant who will not bow to culture’s idols. At the same time, apostasy is rising. Many who once professed Christ are now trading truth for tolerance, holiness for hype, and surrender for self. This falling away is not accidental—it is prophetic. As 2 Thessalonians 2:3 warns, “Let no one deceive you… for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first.” The Refiner’s Fire and the apostasy are unfolding side by side—one purifying, the other exposing. The fire is not just for cleansing; it is for bringing the dross, defilement, to the surface. It is heaven’s response to deception. And in the midst of the falling away, the remnant is being forged—pure, bold, and ready for the return of the King. As for the rebellious opinionates, it will cause them to beg for the Antichrist. Now is the time to choose: be refined or be removed. The fire is here. Let it burn. MY PREDICTION:We are entering a season where catastrophic events will shake the foundations of the West—economically, socially, and spiritually. The depraved ideologies of the masses, once whispered in shadows, are now shouted from rooftops, igniting a rebellion against truth itself. But this rebellion will not go unanswered. Yeshua is stepping into the chaos—not to calm it, but to clarify it. The hour has come for the great separation: the goats from the sheep, the counterfeit from the consecrated, the cultural Christian from the crucified follower. This is not symbolic—it is sovereign. The dividing line will be unmistakable, drawn not by politics or popularity, but by purity and allegiance. Dr. Phinney, I disagree with your views on the End Times! - A Substack Comment This statement is at the core of Christian depravity. To think or believe that human opinion has value and can change the prophecies is blasphemous. It does not. It matters not. If the scriptures speak, we should not only listen, but also repent if our grave opinions that attempt to change God’s Scriptures. Those who truly belong to the Shepherd will rise—not in fear, but in faith. Their lives will shine with the unmistakable mark of the indwelling Christ. And as the world trembles, the remnant will stand, refined by fire, ready for glory. Now is the time to examine your heart, your house, and your hope. The shaking has begun. The separation is near. Choose this day whom you will serve. I believe that the Islamic extremists will unleash their fury upon America and other nations that are viewed as “Jew lovers.”Biblically, we know that nations will rage, alliances will fracture, and hostility toward God's covenant people—both Israel and those grafted in through Christ—will intensify. Jesus warned in Matthew 24:9: “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.” The spiritual war behind geopolitical unrest is real. As America continues to stand with Israel—whether politically, symbolically, or spiritually—it will increasingly be seen as a proxy target by those who oppose God’s covenant. But wrath from man is never the final word. So what will the mainstream Christians do?Sadly, they will morph into liberal Christianized doctrines that match the spiritual ideologies of the Antichrist. Psalm 2:1–4 reminds us: “Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? … He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord holds them in derision.” While the threat is real, so is the sovereignty of God. The shaking may come, but it will serve His purposes: to refine the Church, expose deception, and prepare the remnant. Now is the time to intercede, to stand firm, and to get our spiritual house in order. The separation of sheep and goats is not just coming—it’s already underway. Watch closely—a major geopolitical shift is on the horizon. Rumors of war will no longer remain whispers; they will erupt into conflict. And America, long seen as a symbol of strength and influence, will soon become a primary target for unrest and mayhem. The shaking has begun. As a wise old man once said, If people are gathering in masses, stay home. Fact: We now live in a culture where it is no longer safe to be a part of mass gatherings where unrest, violence, deception, and spiritual volatility are prevalent. The wisdom of avoiding mass gatherings is not rooted in fear—it’s rooted in discernment. Scripture reminds us that there is “a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing” (Ecclesiastes 3:5). We are called to walk not by impulse, but by the Spirit. Yeshua Himself often withdrew from the crowds to pray, to protect the purity of His mission, and to avoid premature conflict (Luke 5:16; John 7:1). Likewise, Paul warned of perilous times when “men will be lovers of self… having a form of godliness but denying its power” (2 Timothy 3:1–5). In such times, like now, gathering without discernment can expose believers to spiritual compromise, ideological confusion, or physical danger. Avoiding mass gatherings is not a rejection of fellowship—it’s a call to intentionality. The early Church met in homes, broke bread in small circles, and grew through Spirit-led connection (Acts 2:46). The remnant thrives not in numbers, but in obedience.So let us be wise. Let us gather where the Spirit leads, not where the crowd pulls. And let us remember: the safest place is not among many—it is under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1). After all, any terrorist worth their salt knows, targeting the places of mass gatherings is the “sweet spot.” This is not an opinion—it is a prophetic warning.The hour is late, and the shaking has begun. The world, particularly the West, is teetering on the edge of catastrophic upheaval. Depraved ideologies are no longer hidden—they are celebrated, legislated, and weaponized against truth. As darkness accelerates, Yeshua is preparing to separate the goats from the sheep—opinionates vs. indwelt believers in Yeshua. What side are you on?Those who walk in compromise will be exposed. Those who walk in covenant will be refined. This is the season to get your house in order—spiritually, relationally, and missionally. The dividing line is being drawn, and neutrality is no longer an option. Be wise as a serpent—discerning, alert, and unshaken. Be gentle as a dove—anchored in love, truth, and the Spirit’s leading. The remnant must rise, not with noise, but with clarity, not with fear, but with fire. The King is coming - SOON. Let the Bride be ready.
