I’m reluctant to share this, but I feel compelled to do so. What follows, no doubt, will sound ridiculous to many, but some will take it to heart.

On the morning of 4^th June, 2020, I woke up at 2.15am and could sleep no further. I got up at 2.45am and went downstairs where I prayed for a while. I then switched on the kettle for coffee. Just at that moment I clearly heard an inner voice saying, “It does not matter if children do not go to school anymore.”

Startled, and while thinking about what I heard, I heard the voice again, saying, “It is time to prepare for the New Millennium.”

I mulled over it again, and then three sets of Scripture came to mind, as if downloaded into my inner being.

The first was:

Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: .
Joel 2:29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
Joel 2:30 And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

The purpose of the global lockdown is to invoke God-awareness and for parents to change their ways in order to edify their children about the reality of God.

The second was:

Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
Malachi 4:6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

Similarly, families are to consolidate their relationships in obedience to the will of God.

The third was:

Rev 22:10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
Rev 22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

This says something about God’s timeline for the human race. God’s end-time judgements are fast approaching. Those who want to continue in their present ungodly frame of mind should do so. The consequences for the unrepentant will be severe, but those who transform and those who remain faithful will be rewarded.

The only thing that makes sense concerning no need for further schooling is the warning of the nearness of God’s judgement upon the human race as per the opening of the seven seals in Rev 6. They have already been opened and are being fulfilled as we speak. It should be borne in mind that the seven trumpet judgements (mixed with Grace) and the seven bowl judgements (final, no Grace) all fall within the seven seals. “But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.” (2Peter 3:7)

What is the point of education - or any worldly activity by anyone, for that matter - when the present age is coming to an end soon (by Great Tribulation) with the new millennium ushering in a brand new age for the world? Those who make it into the new age will make a brand new start. Education and the world system will follow a totally different format.

The current global lockdown was imposed by the governments of the world. It is God’s precursor to the judgements that are coming, which will bring self-imposed shutdowns by civil society around the world as a consequence of the severity of the judgements. Education and commerce and industry will be disrupted and discontinue without the need of a government-imposed lockdown. Anarchy will be the order of the day. There will be a One World Government, but it will not last for long. “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” (1Cor. 2:9)

There are two schools of belief among Christians concerning the rapture (catching away, removal of Christians from the earth) – those who hold to a pre-tribulation rapture and those who believe in a post-tribulation rapture. Whether it is one or the other, there will be a period of Great Tribulation. Christians will either be saved from it or they will have to endure until the end like everyone else, but they will be afforded protection.
