On July 31, 2019, at the end of the Democratic primary debate, Joe Biden (former senator and vice-president of the U.S.) told viewers to “go to Joe 30330 and help me in this fight”. Most viewers assumed this was a website name, but it turned out that wasn’t the case. Joe was just doing what Joe does best, he misspoke. He evidently meant to tell the audience to text 30330 to get involved in his campaign. This was just another gaff among dozens in the career of the former senator from Delaware.
This article, however, is not about Joe Biden in particular. It’s more about the power behind politics and the world system. This evil power has been influencing civilization since the beginning of time, starting with the fall of Adam and Eve and the expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Of course, I am talking about Satan and his army of fallen angels (demons). They corrupted mankind and the animal kingdom during the Antediluvian Age to the extent that God had to destroy all the people of the earth, except for Noah and his family, and most of the animals, with a great flood.
After the flood, mankind was again deceived by this wicked entity during the Tower of Babel incident. God had to intervene in the affairs of men again. This time He confounded their language (for they originally spoke only one language) which effectively separated them and scattered them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Throughout mankind’s history, Satan has always been influencing nations and the lives of people around the world. His influence is one of evil, for he is against God and God’s ultimate plan of redemption for man. Satan’s corrupt control over the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah was evident, during Abraham’s lifetime; as it was over Pharaoh and the idol-worshipping pagans in Egypt, during the time of Moses and the Exodus. His evil power corrupted the children of Israel during the time of the Judges, and later during the reign of the kings of Israel and Judah; when apostasy was rampant.
Satan is alive and well on planet Earth (just like Hal Lindsey said a long time ago) even to this present day…maybe even more so, as he has the technology to work with (and through) these days. His influence can be seen and felt throughout America and all nations of the world. He will not stop until all mankind worships him as God, and then he will turn on his subjects and destroy them. God, however, will not allow this to happen. He always saves a remnant of mankind for Himself.
Satan is a defeated foe and has been ever since Jesus rose from the grave after his crucifixion, and ascended back to Heaven. Satan knows his future, as recorded in the Bible “When the thousand years (Millennium Kingdom of Jesus Christ) are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 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.
And they went up on the breadth of the earth; and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever” (Revelation 20:7-10). Satan wants to take as many human beings to this “lake” with him as he possibly can. Sadly, many humans (and angels) will follow him willingly or unwillingly to their doom.
After the Democratic presidential debate, I started thinking about the number 30330 and why Joe Biden and his campaign advisors picked that particular number. You know good and well Old Joe didn’t think that up for himself, as he doesn’t think very clearly these days. I believe he takes the advice of someone, either person or principality; that tells him he should put his faith in the United Nations and world government, instead of God, to bring about “change”. As with Nimrod and the Tower of Babel, Satan knows he can control, enslave, and kill people more effectively if he can do his ungodly work through just one government or man, instead of hundreds.
As a new world order globalist elite, Joe Biden’s goal is to bring the U.S. into the one-world government system; where the U.N. will be in control of the government, military, and citizens of the world. Under a President Biden, and the powers and principalities behind him, America will succumb to the siren call of the New World Order, thus losing her sovereignty, power, independence, and freedom. America the Great will fall, and will never again rise to such prominence. We will soon become just another region under the dominance of one of the Ten Kings/Kingdoms that will rule the earth during the end times.
Eventually, the Antichrist will kill 3 of the kings and the remaining 7 will relinquish their control to him. That is when all Hell on earth will begin in earnest. It will be the time of the Great Tribulation, otherwise known as Jacob’s Trouble.
As for the number 30330, I can only speculate on why it was chosen. I believe the “30” at the start and finish of this five-digit number represents the U.N.’s Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development, which most progressive Democrats believe in. Agenda 2030 for S.D. has 17 goals for curing all of the world’s problems under the leadership of the unelected officials of the United Nations by the year 2030. All nations are required to follow their guidelines to bring about this new utopia on earth. They are to relinquish their national sovereignty and become a member of the New World Order. All members will be required to submit to the authority of the one-world government of the United Nations.
The next two digits in the number 30330 make up a very special number. “33” is a very significant number in religion, numerology, and the occult. Regarding the occult symbolism for this number, I gathered the following information from a page on the website: www.dtss: “The U.N.’s flag shows the globe divided into 33 sections encircled by olive branches. The flag’s color is blue just like the first 3 “blue degrees” of Masonry. 33 is the highest degree of Scottish Rite Freemasonry. There are 13 degrees of York-Rite Masonry. Our measuring system originated in Masonic France in the 1790s which explains why 13 standard inches is equal to precisely 33 metric centimeters. The Grand Orient de France of Freemasons was founded in 1733. The Masons base much of their traditions and rituals on the building of structures, such as the Tower of Babel and Solomon’s Temple.
Harry S. Truman, a 33 degree Mason, became the 33rd President of the United States. In 1933 Adolph Hitler became Chancellor of Germany. The Masonic Great Seal with the Latin “New World Order” was added to the dollar bill in 1933. During World War II, 33rd degree Winston Churchill gave us the “V” for “victory” two-finger salute, which since the ’60s became a symbol for “peace”. Before it stood for victory or peace and was a symbol of the 33rd degree. There are 3 joints to the knuckle on two fingers making 33; then held apart like a V is about 33 degrees. Likewise, the human foot has 33 joints. The human spine has 33 vertebrae. The number of turns in a complete sequence of human DNA equals 33.
All the pyramids in the world are near the 33rd parallel and also the area known as the Bermuda Triangle. The ancient city of Babylon was very near the 33rd parallel while modern Baghdad is on the 33rd parallel. This area was once thought to be the Garden of Eden and later, ancient Sumer. Mount Hermon is at 33 degrees latitude and longitude. In the book of Enoch, Mount Hermon is the place where the Grigeri or Watchers/Sons of God/Nephilim descended to earth.”
These are the esoteric and occultic beliefs of the elite, new world order acolytes including Joe Biden, one of the many 30330 men and women of the world. The 30 at the start and finish of 30330 means it’s important as it is mentioned twice. The number 30 represents the U.N.’s Agenda 2030 and 33 symbolizes the occult or supernatural.
However, for Bible-believing Christians, the numbers 30 and 33 represent something entirely different than it does for the new age guru’s and new world order radicals. The number 30 is a special number in four ways according to the Bible.
1) 30 is a designated measurement for building special structures. Noah’s Ark was 30 cubits in height (Genesis 6:15). Moses and the children of Israel built a tabernacle for God. It contained 11 curtains that were all 30 cubits in length (Exodus 26:15). Solomon’s Temple was 30 cubits in height (1 kings 6:2). It was the same height as Noah’s ark but wasn’t as wide or long.
2) 30 was the age for many men in the Bible when they had a life-changing event in their lives. The sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi had designated duties to perform in the Tabernacle of the congregation. All men from these families 30 years to 50 years old were to perform the work (Numbers 4:2-4). Joseph was 30 years old when he stood before Pharaoh King of Egypt (Genesis 41:46). David was 30 years old when he began to reign, and he reigned 40 years (2 Samuel 5:4). Jesus began his ministry at about 30 years of age (Luke 3:23). The keyword here is “about”. I believe he was more like 33 years old. That is about 30, but not exactly.
3) 30 days was a time of mourning for two great Jewish heroes of the faith, Aaron and Moses (Numbers 20:29 and Deuteronomy 34:8).
4) 30 was the perfect number of men that comprised an elite group in David’s army. There were actually two elite groups of men in David’s army: “the thirty” and “the three” (if you add them up, it’s 33). According to 2 Samuel 23:12-14. To become a member of these groups a man had to show extraordinary courage in battle and wisdom in leadership. The 30 captains were the most courageous and highest-ranking officers of David’s army. “The three” were three men who risked their lives for David by breaking through the host of the Philistines and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem and brought it to David (1 Chronicles 11:15-19).
Another aspect of the number 30 is when you multiply it by 13 (the number for rebellion or apostasy) you get 390. What’s interesting about this number is when you relate it to the history of Israel. “390 years is the whole duration of the separate existence of the ten tribes of Israel from the day they rebelled against Rehoboam to the day they were led away captive by the Assyrians.
Ezekiel prophesied about this in Ezekiel 4:4-5: The 390 years were to signify not only the years of apostasy but were also to signify the 390 days (13 months x 30 days) of the siege of Jerusalem. The siege commenced on the 10th day of the 10th month of the 9th year of Zedekiah (2 Kings 25:2-4). and it was taken on the 9th day of the 4th month of the 11th year of the same king. This gives a period of 18 months. The siege was raised for about 5 months, while Nebuchadnezzar’s army was withdrawn for fear of Pharaoh, King of Egypt, who had come up to meet him. Thus the siege lasted for 13 months before Jerusalem and the temple were destroyed.” {1}
“The numbers 3 and 33 are very special numbers in the Bible. The number 3 represents Divine perfection. It is associated with the Godhead, for there are 3 Persons in God; the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus himself represents the number 3 in many aspects, even though he is mentioned most as the number 2 Person…the Son. There were 3 years of Jesus’ ministry which testify to the completeness of Israel’s failure to accept him as their Messiah (Luke 13:7). Jesus 3-fold “it is written” replies to Satan show that the word of God is the perfection of all ministry (Matthew 4). The 3-fold voice from heaven revealed the completeness of God’s approval of his beloved son Jesus (Matthew 3:17 and John 12:28).
The prophet Jonah was in the belly of a great fish for 3 days and 3 nights. “Now the Lord had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah: And Jonah was in the belly of the fish 3 days and 3 nights (Jonah 1:17). This event pre-figured Jesus’ death and resurrection. In the New Testament, Matthew verified this: “For as Jonah was 3 days and 3 nights in the whale’s belly, so shall the Son of man be 3 days and 3 nights in the heart of the earth” (Matthew 12:40). Matthew mentioned 3 days and 3 nights (33) twice which signified its importance.
Jesus started his 3-year ministry when he was probably 33 (33.5) years old. In the year AD 33, at 3 PM Jerusalem time, Jesus died on a cross having been crucified. There had been darkness in the land of Israel for 3 hours before Jesus uttered his last 3 words, "It is finished” (John 19:30). Mankind’s salvation was now secure and complete for all who put their trust and faith in Him.
In Exodus 33:11, Moses spoke to the Lord “face to face” as a man speaks to his friend. This was probably a theophany of God the Son, Jesus Christ. David, God’s anointed king of Israel, ruled for 40 years; 7 in Hebron and 33 years in Jerusalem (1 Kings 2:11). He started his reign in Hebron when he was 30 years old. David was the 33rd generation from Adam (1Chronicles 1 and 2).
Gideon, one of the judges of Israel, defeated the Midianites with only 300 men which he divided into 3 companies (Judges 7:16-23). Gideon originally had 22,000 warriors, but 12,000 of them were too fearful to fight. That left Gideon with 10,000 men, but God devised a test to see who was qualified to fight. Only 300 men passed God’s test (Judges 7:4-8). Gideon fought the vast host of the Midianites with only 3.33% of his army. However, he had the Lord on his side who gave him a great victory (Judges 7:5-25).” {2}
In the Bible, the number 33 can also be seen as 33.33% or one-third. There are numerous examples of this in both the Old and New Testaments. In 592 BC, the prophet Ezekiel gave a prophecy regarding the destruction of the Kingdom of Judah, the city of Jerusalem and the Temple, and two-thirds of the Jewish population. “One-third of you shall die of the pestilence, and be consumed with famine in your midst; and one-third shall fall by the sword all around you; and I will scatter another third to all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them” (Ezekiel 5:12).
This prophecy was fulfilled six years later in 586 BC. Nebuchadnezzar and the army of Babylon was the tool God used to accomplish it.
Six years after Ezekiel’s prophecy was fulfilled (580 BC) Zechariah prophesied about a similar account regarding the Jews; only this would occur during the end times of the Tribulation/Jacob’s Trouble. “And it shall come to pass in all the land, says the Lord, “That two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die, but one-third (33.33%) shall be left in it: I will bring the one-third through the fire, will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; and each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ ”
(Zechariah 13:8-9).
“One third” is mentioned twice in these verses which means it is important. It has been 1440 years since Zechariah made this prophecy. It will surely come to pass in the near future, for God has ordained it through his righteous prophets. God always saves a remnant of mankind from total destruction; those who will call on the name of the Lord for their deliverance. Even the numbers of the chapter and verse (13 and 9) signify a bad or disastrous event. The number 13 represents an ill-omen, rebellion, or apostasy and 9 represents judgment from God.
Jesus, the Word/Son of God/Yahweh/LORD, gave John a heavenly vision of the end-time events of mankind and the earth. John the Revelator had this to say about the end times and the powers and principalities behind the scenes: “And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads. His tail drew a third (33.33%) of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born” (Revelation 12:3-4). The great red dragon is Satan. The third part of the stars of heaven are the fallen angels that have pledged their allegiance to him and rebelled against God. Satan and his demons will be cast down from heaven to the earth at the mid-point of the Tribulation. Woe to those who are still alive on the Earth at this time!
Although 7 is the dominant number in the book of Revelation (mentioned 58 times); the number 3 is mentioned quite often as well. “Three” is used 11 times and “third” is used 22 times; for a total of 33 times. Is this a coincidence or what? In my opinion, it is “or what”.
These are Biblical truths that the 30330 “citizens of the world” will never understand. “Wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and to be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness” (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12).
But for those who love the truth of the word of God, a different path awaits them. “Behold the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in His mercy, to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His holy name. Let your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, just as we hope in You” (Psalm 33:18-22).
Amen. Even so, come Lord Jesus.
