Mick's Written Thoughts

When you spend over 3 years writing a book, it's often most difficult deciding what not to include in the final edit... and with such a rich and wonderful Living Word we have in the Bible, there remains so much more to share.
Please feel free to download a short thought, or two, and share them with someone you care about 🤗
Our Millennial Reign with Christ in Heaven pdf download to come
"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. " John 14:1-3
Within this beautiful promise, Jesus tells His disciples that He is going to His "Father's house", in Heaven, to "prepare a place" for us. Jesus then assures us that when He comes “again”, He will "receive" us unto Himself, as we "meet the Lord in the air" (1 Thes 4:17), so that we too may join Him in Heaven, in the place that He has prepared.
Without needing to reference any other scripture, Jesus’ own words declares that our thousand-year millennial reign with Christ (Rev 20:4) will be in Heaven.
Sadly, when we google search “our millennial reign with Christ”, an AI response is often generated based on what is typically preached online by most ‘mega-churches’ across the United States, that reads...
“Christ's millennial reign is the belief that Jesus Christ will rule the Earth for 1,000 years after his Second Coming. This period is known as the Millennium.”
To tell it straight, this is the “false prophet” speaking... of which God says...
“False prophets and those who seek their guidance will all be punished for their sins.” Ezekiel 14:10NLT
And what these "false prophets" are speaking, through this false doctrine of our millennial reign with Christ being here on earth, are teachings and “...doctrines of devils”.
“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils” 1 Timothy 4:1
Within this False-doctrinal teaching, our millennial reign “with Christ” (Rev 20:4) is often referred to as “Christ's millennial reign”, as the AI generated search result above also referred. But scripture reads...
“And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them...and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.”Revelation 20:4
Two very precious gifts are being promised in Revelation 20:4, for them “...that hath part in the first resurrection” (Rev 20:6). Those being the gift of judgement and the gift of life, living and reigning with Christ for one thousand years. “Come now, and let us reason together” (Isa 1:14), says the Lord.
If the earth shall be “burned up” at Christ’s coming, then how can it be that Christ establishes His Kingdom on earth at His second coming? “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.”2 Peter 3:10
This is why we “meet the Lord in the air” (1 Thes 4:17).
“Come now, and let us reason together”, says the Lord.
If the “place” that Jesus has prepared for us is in His “Father’s house” (John 14:2), being one of our Father’s “many mansions”, then would we not, at Christ’s second advent, ascend to be in our “Father’s house” also?
Yes, we do ascend to Heaven at Christ’s return. For our “mansions” within our “Father’s house” reside in the “holy city” called “new Jerusalem”, which eventually comes “down from God out of heaven”, upon the “new earth” (Rev 21:2,3). This “new Jerusalem” upon the “new earth”, this “holy city”, will be our eternal slice of heaven on earth and place of gathered worship. And, although we shall have our own home in the glorious lands of our “new earth”, as we...
“...build houses, and inhabit them; and they [we] shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them” Isaiah 65:21
...we shall also, for all eternity, have a home in the “holy city”, through which, I believe, we will always have a window into our Lord’s Heaven.
“Come now, and let us reason together”, says the Lord.
If God’s Throne is in Heaven, and we are given the precious gift of being seated “upon” thrones (Rev 20:4) with Him, being “priests of God and of Christ,” and reigning “with him a thousand years” (Rev 20:6), then would our thrones not also be in Heaven?
The truth of the matter is clear. Our millennial reign “with Christ” will be in Heaven.
The implications of falsely teaching that Jesus will establish His millennial kingdom here on earth at His second coming, relative to what I have shared with you in my book, leaves Christians vulnerable to accepting Satan as Christ on earth.
For those who are caught-up in this lie, those remaining in “Babylon”, it will be a seeming time of enlightenment when the people... “...shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Timothy 5:3
When Jesus said that “the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not (Luke 12:40), I’ve often thought to myself that there would be no greater time in human history when the people of the world “think not” that Jesus would come, but at an hour when the world believes that He is already here... reigning on earth.
Please don’t let this message pass you by.
Please study this out for yourselves and hold true to what God’s Word teaches us about such things. For, although the coming years may be full of nations rising...
“...against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places...”Matthew 24:7
“All these are the beginning of sorrows.”Matthew 24:8 ✞-------------------------------------
We have no King but Caesar
pdf download to come
Within this short but enlightening thought, we’re given further confirmation that the “first beast” of Revelation 13, the one whom will incite worship with the coming of the second trumpet (Rev 8:8), as spoken of in my book, is indeed the Papacy... and within, God demonstrates His amazing ability to speak prophecy through the very lives and events of the past.
Throughout my book we’ve often looked at biblical prophecy through the lens of ‘type’ and ‘antitype’ - As a reminder, a biblical ‘type’ is a symbol, person or event appointed by God to represent a higher/greater truth to come in the future, which is called the 'antitype'.
With this lens in place, please consider the following scripture...
“...and he [Pilate] saith unto the Jews, Behold your King! But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.”John 19:14,15
Within this historical event, as Jesus was about to be judged for crucifixion, God’s “people Israel” (1 kgs 8:16), the “chief priests”, turned their backs on the Son of God and gave their allegiance to Rome, declaring “...We have no king but Caesar.”
There is a time coming, and has already begun, when the Christian world, spiritual Israel, will be deceived (as discussed in my book) into turning their backs on Jesus, as they turn away from His Word, and declare their allegiance to the Papacy.
For who holds the title of Caesar?
In ancient Rome, the "Pontifex Maximus" was the highest-ranking religious official, held by the Roman Emperor - This very title of "Pontifex Maximus" is currently held by the Pope of the Catholic Church, as it refers to the "chief priest" in the Roman religious system, a title that was later adopted by the Bishop of Rome; essentially making the Pope the modern day "Pontifex Maximus".

Food for thought. ✞-------------------------------------
Kings of the North and South
pdf download to come
To help us understand the “first beast” of Revelation 13 and how his “mark” of Sunday sacredness (as discussed in chapter ten of my book) will come into play, God has given us, through Daniel, the prophetic tales of the kings of the north and the south. It is through this broad prophetic picture that we gain an understanding as by what means the Papacy will soon be given great power.
In Daniel chapter ten, Daniel has a vision that truly takes the wind out of his sails, when he encounters…
“…a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.” Danial 10:5,6
This “certain man” declares to Daniel…
“Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.” Danial 10:14
Daniel chapter eleven then continues with this understanding, beginning with describing the overthrow of the Persian Empire by Greece, followed by the dividing of Alexander the Great’s kingdom to his four generals after his death.
From verse five, we are introduced to the “King of the South” and the “King of the North”, who battle against each other throughout history. And although these two “kings” war against each other, they are united in destroying God’s people. There is an “interplay” occurring, as described by Bailey in ‘Externalisation of the Hierarchy’, p. 467 (see chapter 11 in my book), both deceiving us as to their joint orchestration and, as we see in Danial 11:6, also deceiving each other.
“And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table” Daniel 11:27
It’s important for us to note that both these kings “speak lies”, as they are united with the “father of lies” (John 8:44). They are both against Christ, and hence both antichrists.
“…even now are there many antichrists” 1 John 2:18
But although there are “many antichrists”, there are only two characteristics, or two types... Those being: “anti” as “opposed”, or “anti” as “in place of”.
An antichrist can be opposed to Jesus Christ and the salvation we have in Him, or an antichrist can stand in the place of Jesus Christ, corrupt His Word, and lead people to believe that salvation comes through them.
“…that they should believe a lie” 2 Thessalonians 2:11
From Daniel 11:20, we see the historical transition from “pagan Rome” to “Papal Rome”, and the identity of the “king of the north” is more clearly seen as an antichrist that attempts to stand “in the place” of Jesus Christ. The “king of the south”, in contrast, stands more openly opposed to Jesus Christ, and might be described as ‘secular’ or ‘atheistic in nature’ (not connected with religious matters).
Both these “kings” are against God’s people. Both are antichrists.
In verse forty we are told... “…at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him”
The 1798’s deposal of Pope Pius VI and the French Revolution paints a clear picture of the “king of the south” (the secular world of “reasoning”) pushing at the “king of the north” (the religious forms of the Papacy). And over the last two centuries, the “king of the south” has continued pushing, successfully driving Jesus out from our public schools, and proclaiming preaching as “hate speech”.
The secular antichrist powers of this world have been pushing with abortion laws, gender confusion and sexual displacement, evolutionary fabrications, and arbitrary actions that deny God His very existence. I believe it’s clear to see that corruption and lies have been leading the race around the world, as the “king of the south” continues to push.
But…
“At the time appointed he [king of the north] shall return” Daniel 11:29
And the “king of the north” has indeed come back, for...
“…his deadly wound was healed” Revelation 13:3
Although the Papacy lost its powerful union of church and state (constituting the “beast that was” Rev 17:8), almost as if “wounded to death” (Rev 13:3), it has continued to live, interweaving Jesuit lies into the world and manipulating the “kings of the earth” towards Satan’s plans to eventually receive worship through the “image of the beast” (Rev 13:15).
Standing now, in a place where much of the world accepts the Pope as having moral authority, the “king of the north”, the antichrist that stands “in place of” Christ, enables the “king of the south”, the “secular antichrist” powers, the “elites” if you will, to continue pushing for a short while longer... for it serves the Papacy’s purposes.
Please allow me to explain...
When a pendulum has reached its full swing in one direction, gravity begins to pull it back in the opposite direction. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Throughout 2020/21, in many countries around the world, such restrictive lockdowns and ever-changing rules made life confusing and fearful for many. I was living in Victoria at the time, and the constant in-and-out of lockdowns were ridiculous. Children banned from playing on outdoor playgrounds, beaches closed, and schools were thrown into turmoil at the drop of the next announcement… life had become irritably complicated.
All the while, we were being told everywhere we turned that a “vaccine”, being developed at “warp-speed”, will soon be our saving grace.
By the time a “vaccine” had arrived, it didn’t take much to convince us… We were eager and waiting to “get the jab”, because getting “the jab” meant getting out of the complexities and heartaches of being separated from our loved ones. It was our ticket back to “normal” and, as I believe it was the "plandemic" that was manufactured as the answer for how to get billions of people around the world to willingly inject themselves with substances unknown... it was a text-book play.
It is this same “pendulum approach” that the “king of the north” is tactfully employing against the “king of the south” in these last days (or rather, against us) – for in helping the “elites” with their plans, meetings with the Pope (as they do) and co-orchestrating current events, the “king of the north” has indeed come “toward the south”
“At the time appointed he [king of the north] shall return, and come toward the south… but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.”Daniel 11:29
Unlike the “former” mighty power of the papacy during the “dark ages”, this time the “king of the north” has come “toward the south” with corruptible lies.
“With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant” Daniel 11:32
To put things in different terms, the Papacy has been “pulling the strings” from behind the scenes, while slowly growing in “stature”. World leaders frequent the Vatican to meet the Pope and “brush-up” on plans that support the current deconstruction of world systems (Bailey,p. 432) - Systems that we’ve come to rely on. This has been “The Stage of the Forerunner” that concludes this year, 2025... according to Bailey (p. 467).
As the “pendulum” reaches the summit of its climb, mixing "pestilence" and war (Matt 24:7), pushing the world to extreme measures that shake the conscience of the hardest of hearts, when child-trafficking and paedophilia are common practices amongst our leaders, and when all the world is angry for all the atrocities, we will cry out for change… we will cry out for God.
This is where the “pendulum” begins to quickly swing back towards the “king of the north”, as Christians, particularly protestant churches across the United States, start demanding change within the political world, as already has begun.
Attempting to do what is right, many Christians will be in favour of instituting laws (and already have) that they believe are aligned with God's Word, but in fact, are contrary to His Law. These man-made laws will, however, uphold the authority of the “king of the north”, the Papacy, and eventually these laws...
“..causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.” Revelation 13:12
But why would Christians align themselves with the Papacy by instituting favourable laws, if these laws are contrary to God’s Law?
Well, it’s important for us to remember that the “king of the north” is the “antichrist” that stands “in the place of” Christ. He is a deceiver and, sadly, many Christians (though devout in their faith), are biblically illiterate and have allowed much confusion to enter their lives.
For centuries, Jesuits have been re-shaping theological truths and driving “doctrines of devils” (1 Tim 4:1) into our schools, into our churches, and into our minds.
In short, we have taken our eyes off the Truth of God’s Word. We no longer “endure sound doctrine”, but rather have “turned unto fables” (2 Timothy 4:3,4)
If we no longer “endure sound doctrine”, then how are we to identify what is “contrary to sound doctrine” (1 Tim 1:10)? Isn't then that we become susceptible to believing "...a lie” (2 Thess 2:11)? ✞-------------------------------------

The Woman at the Well

pdf download to come
Consider this thought, and the beauty of God showing us prophecy (in ‘type’) through the actual lives of His people, and the amazing ability of Jesus to speak this prophecy to us through his simple discourse with the woman at the well.
“The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.”John 4:15-18
Could it be possible that Jesus is drawing our attention to Revelation 17:10 and the prophecies we see in the book of Revelation?... which is the “The Revelation of Jesus Christ” (Rev 1:1)
“And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.”Revelation 17:10
As explained in my book, the “five” that have fallen are Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome and Papal-Rome - with the one that currently “is” being the Papacy today.
“For thou hast had five husbands and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband...”John 4:18
No!... God’s Church, His adorning bride (Eph 5:22-32), does not belong to the Papacy.
Since the deposal of Pope Pius VI in 1798, at which time the “beast” received a “deadly wound” (Rev 13:3), being Papal-Rome and the fifth “head” of the “beast” ... the sixth “king”, or sixth “head” of the “beast” has taken the reigns.
“…and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads… And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” Revelation 17:3,5
As discussed in my book, since 1798 we have been living in a world where the persecuting “beast” power “is not” (Rev 17:11), and in its place the Papacy has raised up the Roman Catholic Church as we now know her today.
This “woman” who sits “upon the scarlet-coloured beast” is the Catholic Church, which is an extension of the “beast” and has been elevated to prominence.
She is “arrayed in purple and scarlet” (Rev 17:4), worn by Catholic Bishops and Cardinals , with “a golden cup in her hand full of abominations”, being the Catholic “Holy Chalice”
Through the Catholic Church, the Papacy, or “little horn”, has turned Christians away from “sound doctrine”, while posturing “fables” (2 Tim 4:3-4) and teaching “doctrines of men”.
“Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men…… ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.”Mark 7:7-9
I’m fully in agreeance with Jesus... The Papacy is “not thy husband” ✞-------------------------------------
