W.A.H. — World According to Hiro

Fellow Watchmen,

Assuming our prophetic timeline continues to be confirmed by events, we have less than 4 years before we are reunited with our Lord. The amount of time we have left for effective ministry is even less. As covered before, we’ve (potentially) identified signs in the heavens declaring the breaking of the first four seals releasing the Four Horsemen. Before the 5th Seal is broken (which we expect by Passover 2028), the 4th Horseman is given authority over ¼ of the earth to kill with war, famine, pestilence and wild beasts. (Rev 6:8) Historically, although horrible, war casualties are a small part of overall deaths. Even if nuclear weapons are used, direct casualties may number a few million. The Ukraine + Russia conflict cost ~ 1 million deaths since their war started in 2022. (Compared to >70 million abortions annually.) What normally kills large numbers of people are the famine and sickness that follow.

For instance, stores, national emergency supplies, foreign aid, personal supplies and a person’s health take months to be depleted. As reported earlier, global supply chain infrastructure like refineries, power and industrial plants, ships and pipelines, have been specifically targeted since the war. Even if the Russia / Ukraine or the Middle East War stopped today, the damage already sustained will take months or years to repair. Multiple countries are seeing reduced harvests and missing the fertilizer and fuel needed for the next crop, but we have yet to see widespread harvest failures. The 2027 Super El Nino is forecasted to greatly reduce global harvests as well, we’ll see by how much. Many countries are already facing lower stockpiles of food, fuel or other resources as they enter winter with new supplies delayed or restricted. In famine, the death curve runs ~6 – 12 months after failed harvests (and no imports are available), sickness kills those weakened from hunger. Impacts are concentrated in non-agricultural rural areas, cities at the end of supply chains and among the poor. Richer areas historically experience only rising prices.

In the same way, a pandemic takes time. Even respiratory agents (which are the fastest acting) take weeks to seed internationally, then months of spread with a recognized infection rate, then the fatalities. Covid's global seeding took ~2.5 months and the bulk of deaths reported 6 – 12 months later. Since there are ~18 months till Passover 2028, we should see failed harvests and the beginning of a pandemic in the next 6 months in order for them to run their course and fulfill our expected prophetic impact, ¼ of the lands people dying. Iran is one of many nations experiencing the equivalent to failed harvests right now due to their war and supply chain challenges.

Additionally, we know (sometime after Passover 2028) the false prophet sets up an image (that can speak) of the Beast that will enforce worship by allowing people to buy and sell. (Rev 13:14-17) However, just as Nebuchadnezzar did not compel those in the Indus Valley, China, Mesoamerica, or Greece to worship his image, the Anti-Christ does not control all peoples, just one-quarter of it. Moreover, many countries may experience currency collapse or other economic issues. This week alone, Iraq devalued its dinar and Iran's rial and the Indian Rupee hit new lows. Hardship like that makes a system that controls who can buy and sell look like relief, not control or oppression. (Rev 13:16–17). Once people accept the mark to buy or sell, it's too late for them. So, while the Beast's reach may be limited, our time is limited too. Jesus said, "We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work" (John 9:4). We have around 18 months, let's make the best use of the time we have: preparing our families and fellow believers for what's coming, strengthening the weak, and preaching to the lost while the doors are still open. "Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil" (Ephesians 5:15–16).
