Good write up. I figured someone would bring up the fig tree generation. The problem is that the current state of Israel isn't made up of Israelites. Jews are not Israelites, they are Canaanites. So saying that Israel is the fig tree is more of a stretch. It is quite possible that merely the land is being spoken of.
As I stated before, I don't buy into the whole MK theory, it's something I've recently run across and am processing. I'm gonna play the devil's advocate and point out some obvious points.
Revelation 20 1And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Notice verses 1-3. Satan is bound for 1k years. Verse 4-6 states those who died in Christ are to sit on thrones and rule for 1k years alongside Christ. This was known as the first resurrection (of Christians who died for Christ) all others will need to wait for the second resurrection which will come at the end of the 1k years. At which time Satan is released for a short season. 1/4 of 1k years would be considered a season, so a short season would be slightly less than 250 years or thereabout. It's during this time the rest will be resurrected. These are the people who lived before Christ. All the souls who lived before getting a chance to either follow Christ or Satan before ultimately being sorted. The wheat from the chaff. The wheat being gathered and the chaff being thrown into fire. This theory doesn't discount prophecy but moves our point closer to the ultimate end.
Look into tartaria and the mudflood. Lots of architecture showing either a j or an i instead of a 1 On the dedication plaque. Thus saying the year of the Lord.
It's a compelling theory of nothing else. I'm sure I'm missing lots on info, but that's more or less the premise.
The number one sign you're in the end times is the lies and deception. Every bit of our reality has been created to control our minds and perception. Everything we've been taught is a lie
I believe Israel is the believers in God who are spread throughout all the nations many of whom are not yet bringing forth fruit fit for the kingdom.
I can’t see even a hundred years anywhere in history where satan appeared to have been bound.
I believe the mud-flood was Noah’s flood.
I do keep an eye on these ideas though because they can stir up new information and understandings.
The problem with history is that it has been manipulated, largely in part because of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church came about as a means of controlling the growing Christian population. I've actually thought about this 1k years long before hearing this theory. It's possible that it came during the Renaissance. I've got a couple videos to screen, if they are what I think they are I'll share them.
So you do recognize the mudflood. If you believe it then you also recognize that buildings all over the world were sunk. Including buildings in the US. Buildings in Washington DC, and practically every major US City. This would have been impossible unless shave civilization were here already. This would show we were intentionally lied to to cover up history. We've been lied to about everything else so why not history as well.
The flood in Genesis destroyed everything that was not on the Ark.
I think that building conventions, particularly accommodation for servants in attics and basements, soil/dust deposition, which occurs at a surprisingly high rate, and soil liquefaction during seismic activity account for the effects shown in these videos.
Looks like a lame attempt to make a contemporary elaboration of preterism in a red-pill stylee to me.
The Reformation preachers unanimously identified the papal system as the Antichrist, and the Roman Church as Babylon—causing a mass exodus of believers out of the Catholic institution.
Because Rome realized that the Reformation could jeopardize her position as a religio-political power, she employed five strategies in what became known as the Counter Reformation. One of those strategies was the creation of futurism and preterism, two different interpretations of the prophecies in Daniel and Revelation. These interpretations contradicted the reformers' stance of historicism.

The Oxford Handbook of Eschatology says that futurism “argues that Revelation looks beyond the first century to the period immediately before the end times. Thus the book was not written for those who received it, but for those living much later. Jesuit scholars after the Reformation refined this approach to prove that current attempts to identify the Pope as the Antichrist could not possibly be true since the Antichrist will not be revealed until far into the future, just before the Parousia (Christ’s Second Coming)."i
The same book explains that preterism sees Revelation only in terms of its immediate historical context: Revelation [is] described [as] the plight of Christians in the late first century, and its apocalyptic symbols pointed directly to [the city of] Rome as the church’s persecutor...Most modern [preterist] interpreters...insist that the book was never intended to predict conditions or events beyond the first century.ii According to futurism, the Antichrist is still to come.
According to preterism, the Antichrist was in the past. However, this is not Biblical, as Jesus spoke in Matthew 24 of the great apostasy taking place in the future. Both of these false systems disagree with the reformers’ belief that the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy is taking place throughout history.
Throughout the Counter Reformation, preterism and futurism diverted attention away from prophecies identifying the Roman Church as Babylon and the papal system as the Antichrist.
