There is coming a time unprecedented in human history, a time of great sorrow and tribulation such as has never been since the world was created, and shall never be again, and were it not for the return of the Son of God, no flesh would remain. And we have entered into that time frame described by the Bible as the Great Tribulation in which the falling away of millions of believers will also take place. Not welcoming news to the “born again” crowd and rapture fanatics. But this is the truth, and truth is hard to accept when lies have spoon-fed the children since several generations. I could quote scripture and they could as well, think on Moses and the magicians in the Pharoah’s court. But at some point the Lord consumed the serpents and the magicians cowered in fear and trepidation. And it will be the same as the Lord says, “enough” to the lying prophets which lead his people to trust in lies and sleight of hand.
The Christian teachers of post-modern Christianity are leading the people to trust in lies, traditions, making false claims, incredible statements, and a spirit of deception is leading millions into apostasy, and the people will not listen to the truth but are consumed with the lies! How can this generation be saved? Thousands will be baptized, but to what are they being baptized into, the faith in Jesus Christ or the lies that will keep them away from the real Jesus? The personal Jesus is not the Son of God, but an idol created to make one believe that they are “saved” when in truth, they are deceived. A one-world religion is on the rise, and when it is finished then all, including the personal Jesus will be incorporated into it’s image. And all men will bow down to worship it, and those who won’t will die. So, you had better be sure what “god” you are currently serving and what spirit of “truth” you are following because if it isn’t adhering faithfully to the Scriptures, then you are already on the road to perdition without even realizing it.
A people who were raised in lies and believes those lies to be true will resist the truth spoken to them and will defend their lies to the utmost of their abilities even resorting to murderous violence when called upon such as Muslims, Hindus and even Orthodox Jews, and others. And when all religions are focused onto one deity such as will be the case with the image of the beast, then all will recognize their god in it which will make it easier for them to worship it. And it will become the true Christian believers ultimate litmus test of faith. And yes, the Christians will be here as all this takes place despite the fairy tale of being raptured away to avoid the persecution. You need to count the cost and ask yourselves if you really trust in Jesus Christ or your teachers who have helped to spread falsehoods. Once you realize that nothing which you have been told is true, will your faith collapse? Or will you, in humility, turn to the only one who will love you unto the end, and will be with you until that end, whereas the hireling will be nowhere to be found, the one who taught you lies, and is now running in fear from the horrors he had boastfully told you would not take place because you will be safe in heaven. They are lies and you need to let them go. The scriptures have made it very clear that you will be persecuted for His Name’s sake right up until the end of times. The Gospels warn you, the prophets warn you, the apostles warned you and Revelation warns you, but are you listening? Or do you even want to know?
The Lord has made it very clear that those who are timid, fearful, afraid and cowardly will not enter the heavenly city. That is why you need to strengthen those wobbly knees and feeble hands, and quaking hearts while you are able to do so before the hour of temptation strikes and you collapse in fear and forsake the Lord. Even now the swells are being felt here in the United States as the evil sweeps over this country and the righteous are being harassed on every side. But this is just a mere taste of what is coming. The social credit score is picking up and being discreetly used as a tool for insurance rates, loan applications, job qualifications and more. And those who are conservative and Christian in view are finding it somewhat difficult nowadays once they have been outed by the hateful ones. Whether it be on the job or in the school board meetings, their voices are being silenced as the cuffs come out or the promotion goes to a less qualified because of the pressure from Human Resources to conform to the social chaos spreading as a cancer across the nation.
You will be persecuted for My Name’s sake, and you had better get used to it. You will suffer the loss of many things to include having family members betray you, even turning you over to the authorities. Christians will betray other Christians because they believe it is the right thing to do, but in truth, they are fearful of their own lives being taken, though not realizing that they are also slated for arrest simply because they once were believers, and therefore still are in the eyes of the authorities. Once a Judas goat, twice never trusted. If you haven’t noticed as of yet, some stores are beginning to require a card to enter, a pin number needing to complete the sale. At the moment just hitting the enter key is fine but that will soon change under the upcoming new digital currency laws that will certainly be arriving soon. You really need to understand that life-altering persecutions will be thrust upon the Christian, and that this is a very real persecution that will cost you your life. So, what is the value of your life? Your possessions? Your wife, husband, parents, children? Either you love the Lord more than anything in this world or you don’t love Him at all. There is zero room for compromising here. And that is why you need to read the Bible for yourself and stop with the spoon-feeding nonsense! Your mothers stopped once you were weaned. When do you intend to be weaned? A silly question but in truth, a real one. As long as you are spoon-fed scriptures, you are still babes unable to ascertain the truth from the lie. And therefore wide open to all kinds of spiritual and scriptural twistings and falsehoods.
We are in the pages of Revelation even now and you still have time to stand with the Lord, but if you choose to ignore the warnings given and follow your false teachers then I will tell you that your house will crumble under the onslaught and you will abandon the faith in fear for your lives. And the number will be assigned and you will take it, thereby sealing your eternal doom.
This is a war that takes no prisoners. Either you serve the evil one or you serve Jesus Christ. The one will deliver you to death, the other to life. Why will you place your soul in the hands of a stranger? Would you turn over your money to one? Of course not, but you would your soul to the hireling who teaches and practices lawlessness and you will suffer the loss as well as the one who led you astray. Your religion cannot save you, your pastor cannot save you, your good works will condemn you, the evil one will slay you in your blindness and abject ignorance, your grey head will deliver you to the grave, your families will betray you, your guns will kill you, in other words, everything but Christ will turn you over to death! You need to start counting the cost today! Right Now! Shut off the television, the laptop, the smartphone, and put aside the books and magazines and begin to study the Scriptures which can show you the way, the truth and the life, but you have got to begin right now! Tomorrow may be too late if your soul is required this very night!
Why gamble with a loaded deck of cards? Why play Russian Roulette with your souls? Why abuse the time you still have by dallying in fields of sin? Your hour of departure could come at any second when you least expect it! You could be driving to a dinner with your husband, and be hit by a truck, and then instant darkness. You have left the land of the living and will know nothing more until you are awoken to face the Judgment. You could be playing cards with your friends and have a sudden stroke. And as the light fades from your eyes, they all see the great fear and terror in them as death sweeps in and takes you away, forever. You are riding a bicycle, and a car backing up didn’t see you and you are crushed under the wheel, and countless more examples, but you get the point, don’t you? Why gamble with time? You are not the master of your destiny, but a mere breath that is here today and gone tomorrow.
What you have built up goes to a stranger. What you saved inherits another. What goods you have collected gets donated or sold off. You spent your life on vanities, for nothing that you have will go with you, NOTHING AT ALL! You need to understand the value of your soul because the world can offer God nothing in exchange for it, and that is just how valuable the soul is to the Creator.
God, the Father, has commanded all men to believe in His Holy Son, Jesus Christ, the Lord, and to repent of their sins, and by responding in faith and love, you may inherit eternal life. But if you persist in your sins, let it be made clear that you will die in them and afterwards must face the wrath of a holy God whose Son’s blood you trampled upon and scorned His offer of forgiveness. And that point your fate is sealed and the Lake of Fire will become your home forever and ever.
In wrapping up this short article, once again, we are in the pages of Revelation, and the deceptions will increase to the point of absolute truth, but do not be deceived by what you are and will be seeing. The UFO enigma will actually produce aliens and their ships and will cause millions of believers to fall faster than a meteroite plunging through the skies. They are earthly and demonic in nature! Do not believe them them. You wll see a resurgence of evil giants, strange creatures, hybrid humans, technological marvels, great signs in the skies, massive earthquakes and storms, heat waves, more diseases and sicknesses, induced famine, increasing acts of fornication and unbridled lusts, worshipping of demons, and increasing hatred of Jesus Christ and those who love Him. YOU WILL BE PERSECUTED FOR HIS NAME’S SAKE!
Do not fear them which are able to kill the body but not the soul. Today, count the cost of being a true and faithful disciple of the Lord, and don’t wait until it’s too late. Do not lean unto your own interpretations or views or those of a recognized teacher, but read the word faithfully and walk as Jesus walked and do as He commands irrespective of what men say! He is your Lord and Master, not me, or anyone else! Trust in Him with all your soul, might, mind, and heart. Love the Lord and the brethren and strive to reach the lost and the backslidden ones. Judge no man, but be willing to serve all in Christ to the best of your God-given abilities. Be kind to one another and forgive one another as He has forgiven you. The world will know you as you reveal Jesus Christ to the world. Walk in love, faithfulness and obedience to His commands.
May the grace of God be upon those who love the Lord.
I remain a brother to those in the faith of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
