Nobama In 24 Hours
We are now only 24 hours away from the inauguration of President-Elect Donald Trump. That means that the anti-Christian who currently occupies the White House will have to vacate the premises and I think we can all be abundantly grateful for that. God has used this election to expose a tremendous amount of evil in this country and world. He has laid evil plots bare for all to see in regards to globalism and what is now called the "Deep State". He has shown millions of Americans to be emotional tyrants entirely deluded and unaware of reality.
That said, many millions of Christians will be tempted to let this temporary sigh of relief last indefinitely. It is this sort of business-as-usual attitude that is expressly prophesied before the rapture and onset of Daniel's 70th Week (e.g. Luke 17:27-30, Matthew 24:38-39, 1 Thessalonians 5:3). I firmly believe in a salvation that is by grace through faith, which means whether awake or asleep all Believers are going to leave this place, but with that said - many watchers run the risk of forfeiting their Crown of Righteousness if they are asleep and indifferent when the Lord comes. Stay awake!
And
I plead with you to stay awake and stay alert. Keep watching. Don't let the worries and cares of life and the deceitfulness of riches distract you from the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ is set to return quickly and soon.
Marantha!

Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you. - Revelation 3:3
And
Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day--and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing. - 2 Timothy 4:8

I wonder how many confessed believers in Jesus would actually trade their lives for the chance to finally meet Him via the rapture. Makes me think of the 10 virgins in Matthew 25. Only 50% of them were actually ready and prepared to go to Him, and so it was. I have a feeling that church attendance may not drop too much. Of course this is just one possible scenario concerning the parable of the ten virgins.
ReplyDeleteYou raise a good point. I think this attitude of indifference is also summed up well in Luke 17:11-19, where ten lepers were healed by the Lord, but only one recognized His authority, showed heartfelt gratitude, and wanted to be with Him.
DeleteI guess you haven't read Revelation 3:10 about the ONE out of SEVEN churches counted worthy to escape the tribulation. Or Jesus' parable of the 5 wise/5 foolish virgins. Those foolish virgins got locked out of the open door. Jesus is coming for a Bride 'without spot or blemish' and with lamps full of oil and extra oil stockpiled. Not a bunch of sleeping, clueless 501c3 churchians who think "once saved always saved" is Scriptural truth in SPITE of verses like John 6:66, 2 Pet 2:20, Heb 10:26 or Romans 11:21 that are clearly contrary to this doctrine of devils (that encourages complacency and spiritual laziness). Or all the other "demon-inations" who believe other false doctrines and hold to them over and above the Word of God and His true followers who "outside the camp" with HIM. Lukewarm Christians make God sick. Radical Christians have few friends or even FAMILY. Because His true followers have learned the hard way exactly what He meant in Matthew 10:22. And most of the persecutors are PEW WARMERS. "Let us go forth therefore unto Him, WITHOUT THE CAMP, bearing His reproach." Hebrews 13:13 "I have not sat with idolatrous persons, neither will I go in with the hypocrites. I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked." Psalm 26:4-5
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Donald Trump is pro-homosexual. You forgot to mention that in your "Wheat vs Tares" article. Jesus said you would know them by their fruits. This is why I stopped voting many years ago. Jesus said His Kingdom was not of this world. John 18:36
why november???No idea.The day of Judgement is Yom Kippur.Destruction starts during Yom kippur.
