I think we will all find out (in the not too distant future) that there has already been MANY arrests and executions. The movie that is now playing is solely for the benefit of the sleepies (to bring them along to the notion that the ruling elites across the world are a coalition of evil tyrants bent on completely controlling everyone and everything).

The other thing to remember is that God has laid out His plan for the end times in the Bible and that involves:

• The start of the tribulation (white horse, red horse, black horse and pale horse) - Revelation 6:2-8
• the appearance & ascendance of the Antichrist (the first beast) in the newly constructed temple on Mount Zion 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4
• the false prophet (second beast) Revelations 13:11-15
• implementation of the mark of the beast (Revelations 13:16-18)
• the persecution of and war with the saints (Christians) (Revelations 13:7)
• the Rapture of the saints (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18)
• the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21-22)
• the battle of Armageddon (Revelations 19:11-21)
• the millennial rule of Jesus Christ (Revelations 2:27)

It will be interesting to see how things develop. It most certainly will be turbulent and those that are not grounded in the faith will suffer greatly. I urge everyone that has not already done so, to accept Jesus Christ by faith and follow Him. He loves you and He wants to welcome you into the Kingdom of God forever - if you will only believe in Him. God bless you.
