Where Are We Now?
Christians who think that we are transitioning into a new season are correct, but they often misunderstand what this means, because they are confused about the next season. Before we can know what we should do, we need to know which season we are in. We also need to know which season comes next. And because the next season is a tough one, we need to know what comes after that too, or we will lose hope.

We really are at a pivotal time in human history. The Times of the Gentiles are coming to an end. The reason that Christians feel that the seasons are changing is that we are entering this Time of Distress. This is the short season that runs in parallel to the Times of the Gentiles during the final stages of this much longer season. We should be getting ready for this transition.

The Times of the Gentiles and the Time of Distress end together with the Fullness of Israel. This opens up the way for the glorious season when the Kingdom of God comes on earth as it is in heaven.

These five seasons are clearly visible in the scriptures, not hidden behind images or numerics. To help our understanding, the five seasons will be discussed in more detail in the following posts.

This is a totally new paradigm. You will have been well-trained in an old paradigm that is wrong, so it will be hard to understand this. You will have to set that old stuff aside, and begin looking at the scriptures through a new lens. This is hard to do.
