Those of us alive today are living in an era of prophetic fulfillment, probably an era
of prophetic importance not seen since the first century A.D.
Welcome to Skywatch TV. I'm Derek Gilbert. This is Thursday, October 20th, 2016, a special
broadcast today. As again, we welcome the best-selling author of the Rabbi of Phan
Messiah, Be Thou Prepared, and his new book, When the Lion Roars, Understanding the Implications
of Ancient Prophecies for Our Time, Pastor Carl Gallops.
Carl, it's good to be here today. Thanks. In the book, you talk about a couple of things
that have been on a lot of people's minds lately, if they are interested in prophecy.
The Shemitah year, which just ended in September. And there are a lot of people I suspect who
are expecting something a lot more dramatic. We've seen, you know, maybe, okay, a softening
in the stock market, and this being the month of October, where things, bad things happen
in the markets. But what was significant about the Shemitah? Was it really significant?
It was really, really significant. And it's a shame that most of the church has missed
it. Because what I think a lot of people were doing, they were focusing in on a specific
date, looking for something to happen on that date, like it was going to be a magic day.
It's like people that set the day for the rapture, you know, and it comes and goes,
it doesn't happen, everybody goes, ah, well, you know. The same kind of thing was happening,
and some of us were out there screaming, no, no, no, no. Don't look at that date of the
culmination of it, because the Shemitah is a year. You know, now it culminates in a day.
But then right after it, in this cycle, was a super Shemitah, the Jubilee year. So there's
kind of a couple of year window there. Well, what happened in that Shemitah year and in
the super Shemitah? Oh, my gosh, I take a chapter and I outline it by month. And I go,
this month, look at what happened. I'm going to give some examples here. And this month,
look what happened in this month. And they're all prophetically profound things. Most of
them are never before seen. And some of them are world changing things that have happened
and or still in the process of unfolding. And they happened, all of them happened in
the Shemitah year. So let me just give you an example. Well, first of all, right in the
middle of the Shemitah year, June 2015, the largest Christian nation the planet has ever
seen, the United States of America, founded on the Judeo-Christian principles, are founding
fathers, Washington sworn in, takes Congress down the street, they go to a church, they
pray, they commit the nation to the Lord. Now, I'm not saying all these guys were stellar,
holy spirit, filled Jesus, loving Christians, but they, they weren't Muslims. They weren't
Hindus. They weren't Buddhists. They weren't a bunch of staunch atheists. They gave credence
to the Word of God, to the God of heaven, Yahweh, the Creator. They got on their knees
and they dedicated the nation to the Lord. So in the midst of that, the largest Christian
nation the planet has ever seen was born. To this day, it still is. And in the midst
of Shemitah year, June 2015, the largest Christian nation the planet has ever seen by decree
of Supreme Court law says, we don't know what a marriage is anymore. The foundation of God's
Word. I mean, we're talking Genesis 2 stuff. And the largest Christian nation in the world
spit in the face of God on his word and on his whole plan for mankind and said, it can
be whatever you want it to be. And following that comes the jailing of Kim Davis for the
first time in American history, an elected public official, keeping the law that she
swore of her state is put in jail under order of a federal judge because she would not acquiesce
that a marriage can be anything. I mean, this is prophetic. This is profound. But that's
just the tip of the iceberg. That was just the beginning point because then the radical
gay movement starts unfolding before us. The Obama administration starts exporting this
by demand, holding other nations ransom. We will not give you your aid money. And some
of them were depending upon that to eliminate AIDS, to eliminate starvation. In other words,
our government says we don't care if you starve to death or rot with sexually transmitted
diseases. If you don't acquiesce to the radical gay agenda that we have now declared and embraced
in the new Sodom and Gomorrah spirit of America, we will let you starve to death. Make your
choice. I mean, that began to unfold. Then Obama issues his transgender bathroom, locker
room, shower pronouncement. This all happened in the Schmeteer. That doesn't count. That's
not even taking into consideration that back in the beginning of the Schmeteer or just
before it, Russia shows up in the Middle East. China comes right behind it. That's hugely
prophetic. Turkey's on fire becoming an Islamic nation again. ISIS is erupting. The king
of Israel. I'm going to use that. Benjamin Netanyahu. As he said, well, he's not the
king of Israel. I know, but listen, folks, think of the history of Israel. After Solomon
divided north and south, Syria conquers the northern kingdom, Babylon's other kingdom,
it's gone. But the prophecy said, but in the last days, they'll come back to the land.
They'll be under one king. There'll be a united nation. They'll be in the land. God says,
I'll do this to show that I'm the Lord. In the last days, Israel will come back. Well,
it has. It's there. It's been there less than 70 years. Benjamin Netanyahu is the prime
minister. And to put it in Old Testament biblical terms, he's now the king of Israel.
He comes to the Congress of the number one superpower that the world has ever seen, the
most powerful nation economically, militarily, prosperity, what that the planet has ever
seen. He goes to that Congress and he says, and I'm paraphrasing and it's all in my book.
He begs them, please, please don't sign a compact with Iran. And he comes at the Feast
of Purim when Esther went to the king of Persia. And he comes at the Feast of Purim and he
goes before Congress and he says, these people are ancient and they hate us. They want to
kill us. Please don't do this. Not only did Obama and his administration do it, but they
sought to punish Benjamin Netanyahu for being there and the congressmen that supported him
and Obama changed the day of the signing of the treaty with Iran to the exact day that's
in the Bible in the book of Esther, wherein Haman and Artic Xerxes entered into covenant
to destroy the Jews. The exact day. It's documented in my book. People all over the world were
erupting and oh my gosh, that is like blasphemy and it's prophetic. And you say, yeah, but
he manipulated. He did that just to jab Netanyahu since he came on pure. It's surely true,
but that's so biblical. It's so in your face. So you want to come on the Feast of Purim
and tell me not to sign a compact with Persia? I'm going to sign it on the day that it was
done in the Bible. I mean that happened in Shemitia. I could go on and on. The Shemitia
year opened. I document this. World financial markets were losing trillions of dollars. Huge
percentages of their economy was gone when Shemitia year rolled around. All of it's documented.
I know people listening to us now say, well, it was no big deal. Stop markets up and everything.
But you listen to the economic experts and they're saying, look, we know that, but it's
false. It's propped up. It's not going to last forever. You can't take it's a house
of cards. You can't take world markets that lost trillions of dollars of assets and then
prop it up and say, okay, everything's back to, you know, lovely times. No, it's going
to come crashing down. I'm not a prophet of doom and gloom. I just know what the experts
are saying. I can see the facts before my eyes. All of that happened in the Shemitia
year. And I mean, I could go on and on. I've got dozens of examples. I go month by month
saying, look what happened. Look what happened. For the first time in history, the UN flew
the Palestinian flag as broke their own rules as though there's a state. The pope declared
Palestine a state. Shemitia year. China comes in and sends troops to Russia in Syria igniting
this apocalyptic Armageddon kind of possibility in the Shemitia year. And we're still watching
that unfold. So to say nothing happened in the Shemitia year, you have to be blind. That's
the absolutely blind. And it's still unfolding. I think there's a tendency for people who
are living in the day not to see the significance of the events that are unfolding around them
until you can step back and look in retrospect and to see.
Yeah. That's why I wrote the book. That's the theme of my book. To get your face out
of today, lift your head up, look around. Go all the way back to what the Bible says.
Look what's happening. Look what's unfolding. Look where it's going. Look what the mainstream
media sources are saying. They don't even know what they're saying. Lining straight
up with scripture if the line is roaring.
One of the things that we should touch on, because a lot of prophecy books will attempt
to cipher out the timeline of things that are coming. And establish schematics. Yeah.
Charge graphs and timelines and everything. You don't do that in when the line roars.
Don't even come close to it. Why not? Yeah. Because I wanted this to be, right now, it's
really unlike any prophecy book on the market. And I don't say that braggadociously. I mean,
I truly wrote it not to compete with anybody else, but to just say, look, pastors are afraid
to preach this stuff. They're afraid to touch it. A lot of them are. Or they don't know
how or they're confused because there's all these schematics, charts, graphs, math, pre-trib,
post-trib, mid-trib, you know, historical pre-millennialism. Is it dispensationalism?
Is it amillennialism? And everybody has their little niche and they've got their, you know,
and grandma was raised this way. But now we think this way and the preacher thinks this
way and we don't want to split the church. So they just don't deal with it. Right. What
a shame. What a trick Satan has pulled. Yeah. So I wanted to get something into people's
hands with it. Say, look, here's what the Bible says. When Israel returns from that
point forward, what are the signs that would accompany, that would begin to build so that
you would know that you're getting close to the return of the Lord? And then after we've
examined that, what are the headlines saying? What are the military sites saying? What are
the scientific sites saying? What are the technology sites saying? What are the geopolitical,
what are the geopolitical wranglings? What's happening in the Middle East? What's happening
in Israel? What's happening with the king of Israel coming and addressing Congress and
our president attacking him? What's that about? And on and on, what are the world markets
saying? What does the Bible say about all of this? Put it all together and here's my
eschatological scheme. I say this book demonstrates that we're either very close to the rapture
of the church or very close to some tough times the church needs to be prepared for.
You take your pick. I'm not building charts and graphs and maps. I'm just calling what
is, what is. The book is When the Lion Roars. Carl Gallops is the author and he will be
a guest in an upcoming episode, couple episodes of Skywatch TV. Keep watch for those. And we

We are, very prophetic. Most profoundly prophetic times since Jesus was first coming.
