Froglike Spirits, Gaza, Signs of the Times

1st September 2026, hej

 

There is no disagreement that whatever understanding of Revelation, the Apocalypse, all understand that its culmination is Armageddon.


I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. (Revelation 16:13)

The unclean spirits like frogs, are a voice from the 'earth' (or people) which is the revolutionary cry of liberty, equality and fraternity. None have any trouble identifying the French Revolution with the cry of frogs. But note – the lead up to Armageddon isn't the authentic voice of the French revolution, but something unclean that looks like the frogs.

Signs

These 'unclean spirits like frogs' are the greatest sign of the return of Christ. It won't be something hidden - In fact it will be so great and so obvious a sign that it might be hidden in plain sight! Let us go to Christ's other witness of the times.

There shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken (Luke 21:25-26)

No, they aren't perplexed about sunspots, eclipses or meteors – men, those without faith - are worried about what? The political heavens! Israel. Trump. Populism (oh! Democracy of the masses!). Elites worried the roiled masses might think or speak God's word and laws. Elites stirring elitists and the bored to mass protest. They come out, politicians and public figures even leading, weekly waving red and green flags or rainbow signs crying for human rights in a tumult of discontent. Not one place, but many. You can't miss it. It's a sign.

AI admits, Rainbow and Alphabet coalitions frequently co-sponsor and lead 'pro-Palestinian' demonstrations. These groups actively argue that liberation is inherently tied to 'Palestinian human rights'. Liberation from what? Truth?

Let's see where this sign was placed with focussed controversy – at the end of the world: the Sydney Opera house, Sydney harbour bridge, Melbourne State library, weekly in Melbourne CBD, Brisbane Queens Park, University of Sydney, University of Melbourne, and Australian National University. Protests have also occurred in Adelaide, Perth, Hobart, Darwin, and regional Coffs Harbour and Byron Bay.

Also in Los Angeles, New York City, Minneapolis, and Washington, D.C

London, Oxford and Cambridge. Berlin and Stockholm.

Hippy Nuclear disarmament - do they mean Iran?

Let us consider how remarkable this is:

Australia is considered a "low protest country"

Data provided to SBS News from international conflict monitor ACLED shows there have been 50,122 Gaza-related protests around the world since 7 October 2023, when Hamas militants killed around 1,200 people in Israel and took 250 hostages, 906 pro-Palestinian protests in Australia, 34 pro-Israeli protests. Australia ranks 9th globally for pro-Palestinian protests, and is 4th among non-Muslim majority countries. sbs.com.au


This one you can see the socialist anti God alliance

They congratulate themselves - for what we can't say, as words are useless. But they may congratulate themselves for fulfilling Christ's sign in Revelation.

Iran, via its proxies the Houthi's of course would not wish to advertise the return of Christ, but they have.

Yemen has held the highest number of pro-Palestinian protests - they stem largely from propaganda from Houthi authorities in Yemen.

Iran ranked after Turkey. I am not sure what 'protest' in Turkey does. We know what true protest in Iran looks like - lots of people die. Support all feminists except Iranian ones, or rather support Hamas oppression as part of the Iranian theocratic global revolution begun 1979, because it's anti Israel.. So any pro Hamas protest in Iran is not the poor rising up, but the elites in power wishing to speak to the world, the UN.

The most ironic matter of all is that this sign is given in Australia, also 6th for pro-Israel protest, closely followed by the “Palestinian territories”!

While these with all their effort and free time in far removed places at the end of the world draw attention to Israel, Israel is quietly taking back much of Gaza and settling to take power over all their ancient Mountains of Judea and Samaria. That's the other part of the sign!

He shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah (Judea) from the four corners of the earth. (Isaiah 11:12)

If everyone went home and thought on how to end the suffering in Africa, or to end slavery, then Israel wouldn't be a sign for the nations. If nobody could bother protesting against Israel, it might sink into obscurity and be as unremarkable as Iceland. But no.

We have the envy and strife mobs drawing attention to Israel's - success.

These frog-like cries are not coming from the 'earth' any more but from the Dragon, Beast and False Prophet. They aren't true frog but 'frog-like'. They are a facsimile. They are powers in heaven that copy the earth 'frog' to sway the earth.

Who are the three?

The Dragon was the pagan Roman military power as understood in Revelation 12 revived and continued in Constantinople that later became the Byzantine Empire. It is a Serpent, and lies like the original serpent. The Dragon gave power and the seat to the Beast (Revelation 13), this is because the Beast of Rome lived in the power established by Constantine in Constantinople, where he unified the Church. The Beast we see is the European powers. Now the EU. Then lastly from out of that beast of European power in Rome is the third as a 'horn' to that 'Beast', the papacy, the false prophet.

Over history there are changes that necessitated the detail of the vision of Revelation, but at the end there would be a time when we can know clearly the unclean frog-like spirit from the Dragon, Beast and False Prophet.

For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. (Rev 16:14)

The battle is in a place with a Hebrew name – Israel; we return to this.

The identification of the frog-like cries of the Beast and the False Prophet is easy but the Dragon might be the defunct Ottomans, who claimed inheritance or as we think, the Russians- but in any case these may be the same as Turkey may in some matters be aligned. In anytime in the past until the Russian Communist Revolution, the Russians were behaving as the Dragon. Communism is the frog-like cry in its extreme earthy form, and is based entirely on rights of the worker (though in actuality strange things happen and elites rule). Now the current Putin administration or people don't speak of rights, except – let us note - in the matter of Israel as Russia formally recognises Palestinian statehood, as inherited from the Soviet Union's recognition in 1988.

We do know that an unclean version of the French Revolution cry of 'unity' or 'Solidarity' from the hand of the papacy in Poland worked the miracle of breaking the power of the Soviets in Russia. The aim was to make all the world in the American form, but that was never the aim of the papacy. They always wished rather to control protestant America. Underneath the simplicity of the symbols is complexity of push and shove.


Dragon Russia or Turkey? (it's both as it's Constantinople!)

So people may mistake a few things: When Russia held most of Eastern Europe and was Communist, it was easy to see their role as the militant Dragon. But when Russia rebuilt under Putin, it returned to Russian Orthodox roots and firmly rejected 'human rights'.

The war in Ukraine is one 'Christian' world view against the other and split the Orthodox from Orthodox. Many may interpret Putin as Gog, but he cannot be. Rosh is Russia, but it's religious views will likely swing to follow the Orthodox leader at Constantinople (in Turkey). This is AI

The Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople emphasizes inherent human dignity and divine freedom.

Patriarch Bartholomew actively champions individual liberties as God’s gifts, using his global platform in a majority-Muslim country where it faces state pressure, to advocate for religious freedom, solidarity, and environmental stewardship. The Church uses its influence to denounce racism, modern slavery, and social inequalities, promoting solidarity over political partisanship.

The Ecumenical Patriarchate promotes engagement with modern human rights discourse, whereas other branches, like the Russian Orthodox Church, have historically criticized Western liberal human rights frameworks as incompatible with traditional Orthodox morality.

We see from Constantinople where the Russian Orthodox must be pulled shortly. Russia has acted as the Dragon frog-like voice – and it will again. As the EU breaks from America, we can see how the next Russian leader may see the opportunity to cry like a frog to unite all.

Papacy and Constantinople

In the Trump-Papacy dispute, over Israel and Iran (who controls Hezbollah and Hamas), if we look we can see something else – staggering.

Ecumenical Patriarch and Pope Sign Joint Declaration Affirming Commitment to Unity, Rejection of Violence

At the Phanar, the sacred center of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Constantinople on November 29, 2025, His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and His Holiness Pope Leo XIV signed an historic Joint Declaration that reiterated their commitment, on behalf of both Churches, to continue to pursue dialogue for the ultimate goal of restoring full communion between the Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church. The Declaration also reaffirms the Hierarchs’ mutual rejection of using religion to justify violence. archons.org

The violence they reject now is only the violence they don't like- as they are for violence in Ukraine if it works to subdue their Russian brother Orthodox (of course)! They are against Israel's military success. They are against Israel using any means to defend itself. They are against Israel regaining Gaza. They are against 'violence' of Jewish worship on the Temple Mount. They are also against Hamas and Hezbollah violence, as they would be and anyway it isn't working! They seek to gain control by peace.

Through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. (Daniel 8:25)

What is the Frog-like Spirit?

The original real frog spirits of Liberty. Equality and Fraternity did miracles in de-powering the corrupt elites and the Catholic church in France. It went further and removed all power of the papacy in America. Frogs hide in damp earth.

The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. (Revelation 12:16)

We may understand the 'Earth' thinking and actions, but true servants of Christ never mistake the God assisted help of the 'Earth' for true belief.

There is only true liberty in Christ (Gal 5:1), but it is truly remarkable that in this small window of time post Cromwell's Glorious Revolution, the French Revolution and the American Revolution that we have, as at no other time in history, the best likelihood of freedom of worship of Yahweh in truth – globally. The original French frog sprits elevated the dissenting Unitarian Joseph Priestley to be their leader. Priestley refused power – he went to America. Preistley may have had some items of his belief and understanding of Revelation incorrect, but he understood the French Revolution as fulfilling the earthquake of Revelation and he expected Christ's return. He wasn't secular. He could have ruled France. He was asked to “come up” in fulfilment of Revelation.

And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. (Revelation 11:12)

There is nothing in the Bible about equality except the hope of eternal life, and even in that there is inequity as some will rule 10 cities (Luke 19: 17-26) and some be cast out. It is a great mistake to think equal outcomes are equality. What the French revolution Frog-earth did was to argue that jobs weren't based on your religion, or status, that the State ruled functional matters but not the Church, and the Church didn't rule the State, and every individual chose what they believed. This cannot be mistaken for the true faith. Christ rules all.

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: (Col 1:16)

As for fraternity, or brotherhood, there can be no unity in brotherhood if all believe as they wish! There is only unity of fraternity in truth, and that is fraught and based on meekness, which is hard to find even among true Christians, as none is free from sin. It is a labour, or work of faith

endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. (Eph 4:3)

The Reformation and Enlightenment (in which many questioned God's existence and such things as miracles), led to the Republic of the Cromwellian revolution, which achieved so little it isn't noticed in Revelation until it led to French Revolution. The French Revolution was con-current in ideology and preceded by the American one. Documents of human rights from this era came out of the Frog-earth thinking spirit. The Americans established the United Nations.

But the new unclean spirits are not from the frogs but Frog-like. Why are they unclean, not just a frog-spirit? The frogs of the earth live near the water of the Word, they need the water of life to live. It is well observed that only a lot of faithful Christian lives in a population can allow freedoms and that 'Democracy' only works with a Judeo-Christian background. John Adams warned the US Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people, by which he meant protestants.

Uncivil evil people need harsh repressive rulers.

What is the spirit out there now? It come from that frog spirit of human rights, but it is the next iteration called Social Justice.

Social Justice as a Spirit of the Age

The AI summary says Social justice is that wealth, resources, and human rights benefit everyone fairly, regardless of race, gender, ability, or background.

This must be nonsense as ability is given by God and so is reward –

He that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. (1Co 3:8)

And worse for the absurd theory – they may actually fight God!

For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another. (Psalm 75:6-7)

If we promote and raise up those God puts down are we trying to fight God? This does not mean we neglect personal compassion; to find the truth of all cases (Jer 5:1), lend to the poor (Pro 19:17), or feed our enemy (Rom 12:20) or bear the burdens of our brethren (not God's enemies Gal 6:2 and also bear our own burdens! Gal 6:5) as social justice is about rights to things – and we don't value things as our treasure is in heaven (Luke 12:33). In any case, reversal may not be the end, as God was so unequal as to allow Job to be targeted. Then he is blessed.

But if it's absurd in terms of inter-personal relations- how much more in terms of inter-national relations. The United Nations defines Social Justice as

“an underlying principle for peaceful and prosperous coexistence within and among nations.”

news.un.org

These look a bit like the three frogs of the Earth, but do you see how they are unclean? What does God of the Bible, Yahweh Elohim say about blessing and cursing nations (can we make straight what is made crooked)? What does the Bible say about race, that we are of one race one blood (Acts 17)! Then what is said about sex is well known.

At this point the task of the servant of God is to

“put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;” (Leviticus 10:10)

We can know what is unclean. Are human rights kosher?

The papal human rights discourse has drifted with the culture:

Religious actors and their political concepts are commonly assumed to be conservative, static, and aligned with the private contemplative world. Popes, however, regularly stand out. The article illustrates that religious ideas change. Three key findings: First, John Paul II dominates the human rights discourse, which has gained traction since the end of the Second World War. Second, although Francis takes an outside role in the papal discourse, he does not differ in principle from the mainstream trajectory of the papal human rights discourse. Finally, third, from the first evocation of human rights by a pope, there has been a persistent trend stressing both individual and collective human rights. jstor.org

The irony is that such a system of wealth and privilege, that for so many years held power absolutely and both crowned and rebuked kings, is speaking of rights. The 'earth' had to dethrone the papal 'moon' from the political heavens, so that the 'earth' had any 'rights' at all. The church had been judge, jury and executioner weighing in on every matter.

Equity of nations: the special case of Israel

There are many signs of the times, but the most powerful one is one we may miss is the call for liberty and equity in the Middle East - look whose mouths that comes from! Not the plebeian frogs, but the great of the earth.

It was not unclean that people break free from tyranny – Israel was to come from the house of bondage- (not to freedom but to chose to serve - What is unclean is when 'equity' is with oppressive Islam, and liberty is 'resistance' and fraternity of Catholics, atheists, Islam is used as a tool by those who hate the God of the Bible to deceive - even us.

Not the actual Frog voice, but Frog-like.

To call nations to war. In a place with a Hebrew name.

Pope Leo renews appeal for Gaza aid, human rights

International community urged to assist the people of Gaza, defend human rights, and return to dialogue ucanews.com

Last week Leo made an unprecedented appeal to US citizens to call their congressional representatives to come out against Trump’s attacks on Iran.

“One of the conditions of the acceptability of Catholics in the American political project was that the Vatican would not interfere with American democracy,” says Faggioli.

“The Pope doing what he did crossed that line … He is clearly trying to influence voters in America.”

Leo – heir to a progressive Catholic tradition committed to social justice – sees himself as a defender of the ideals of the multilateral order promoted by the US after World War II, according to officials in the Holy See. That is in line with the modern Vatican’s view of Catholicism as a universalist, humane and compassionate faith that should side with the weak and co-exist peacefully with other religions and beliefs.afr.com

- Pope Leo said on Sunday that the only solution in the decades-long conflict between Israel and the Palestinian people must include a Palestinian state, reaffirming the Vatican's position.

"We all know that at this time Israel still does not accept that solution, but we see it as the only solution," Leo, the first U.S. pope, told journalists on a flight from Turkey to Lebanon...

The pope said he and Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan discussed both the Israel-Palestinian and Ukraine-Russia conflicts. Turkey has an important role to play helping end both wars, Leo said. reuters.com

Turkey. But this is not limited to the papacy –

Europe the EU on one hand says it has a bond with Israel, and on the other

The EU is committed to engage against extremist settlers’ violence in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. From April 2024, the Human Rights Sanctions Regime also applies to specific individuals and entities that are responsible for serious human rights abuses against Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. eeas.europa.eu/

Russia speaks, as Sergey Lavrov,

An important role in upholding the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people belongs to pan-Arab and pan-Islamic organisations, whose activities we support, as well as to all truly responsible members of the international community. mid.ru

At this time, at this very moment the pope is speaking social justice and human rights to – Turkey! We can see how this will bring nations to war, as Turkey desires, and openly says it wishes to return to Ottoman control of Jerusalem, lost in 1918. Turkey says to all it wishes to take Jerusalem back, which Jordan lost in 1967.

In the past frog-spirit led Napoleon, who after some success in the Holy Land offered Jews a state in 1799. The frog spirit of 'fraternity' united the Germans, their Kaiser encouraging the Ottomans to the First World War. A frog spirit of 'equality' led to Marxist socialism, that led to Hitler reading Marx in prison that then led to the Second World War. The papacy at any time would be intriguing in all, and had done so with Hitler. But the picture of the unholy trinity of 3 unclean frog like spirits from 3 great powers of the earth wasn't quite true.

In the past we might wonder how all the nations are brought to war – but in fact these voices for rainbow, red and green social justice are now global, to a lesser or greater degree affecting every nation, inspiring Islam, apostate Christians and those who hate God to unite to remove Jewish Israel from Jerusalem.

All nations Iceland to New Zealand, Spain to Mexico.

When it comes to all the human rights protests, all these all agree on equality of 'palestinians' (which in practice is resistance of the PLO and Hamas, which means violence in Hebrew).

Why are they protesting, so much, so often if their governments are fully in agreement? If the UN is in agreement? It's because they want to influence even you. Perhaps they wish to influence the heavens, which will have them in derision. But perhaps also that there might be left some that think.

What a banner! What a sign! - through the lie that the made-up nation since 1967 is indigenous, the lie that they are victims of Israeli aggression in need of equality and rights. Did they forget the rights their 'god wills'? Isn't their 'god great' – enough? The lie that Israel is a colonising power (in that it obtained the Temple Mount in 1967), when Islamic Arabs colonised vast areas even Africa and Europe, and Asia today! Do they really call for an honest justice? Is their foundation truth?

None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. (Isaiah 59:4)

But God is interfering to raise up Israel right now and make a mess of others, the proud - so when we look out there, we have to ask if we think we need to fight for social justice, are we fighting God?

God raises up the meek. God brings down the proud.


Real and True Justice

God messes in the lives of rulers. There is every evidence, this is the case from Pharaoh, to the kings of Babylon to today’s news. If Yahweh Elohim can't mess in our lives, why would we pray? Every faithful prayer is answered - but in ways that are right for eternal life. In any case there is learning by experience.

God shows he is powerful for his people to bring real justice.

The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be established for ever. (Pro 29:14)
God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah. (Psalm 82:1-2)

As to the poor now,

What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it. (Isaiah 14:32)
If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they. (Ecc 5:8)

So we may trust well that indeed we will be avenged if we are meek and poor and trust in God.

So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. (Job 34:28)

As for Job - life is not a moment, a beginning, middle or end; some are born in wealth end in poverty some are born in poverty end in wealth - but all experience of inequality here is nothing to compared to the blessing of eternal life.

There us time and chance. No, it's not to our thinking, fair. But

I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. (Psa 37:25)
And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. (Joh 6:35)

Tasteand see.

There is a time of true Justice coming

The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful. (Isaiah 32:5)

Time no Longer

Then we return to the signs pointing to Armageddon, to that the Frog-like call from the three, calling all nations, the liberty, equality and fraternity of the 'united' nations - ironically perpetually at war to the last war and consider the end – the end of Babel, the city, the founder of all cities and the power of the Dragon Serpent, the Beast and the False Prophet.

It was always simple; if it's not all truth- it is a full lie. The serpent from the beginning always sounded plausible, Babel that promised unity on human rights terms was always on the wrong side of history, as it was established in defiance of God's plan.

And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. (Rev 16:17)
And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. (Revelation 16:19)
Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. (Revelation 16:15)
