The Rapture

Every kind of false belief puts us in some way in danger. This includes the false belief about the Rapture.

What we hear often is that we Christians are going to be taken out of here before the tribulation. That is not the case. This is, at best, a misinterpretation. For this falsehood is used by Satan for an advantage in his tactics against us in this the last hour of the last days.

Be smart, for God has told us in His Holy Word the second coming of Jesus Christ will not take place before the great apostasy from Christ. It will not be before Satan’s last stand when the restrainer is removed and God sends a perverse spirit which leads to credence in falsehood so that all who reject the truth and delight in evildoing will be condemned. ( Thess. 2: 1 -11)

We are God’s witnesses so that all people of this world may come to know that Yahweh is the one who made us all and who establishes all, and that Jesus is God who alone is the salvation of every human being, and that the Holy Spirit is God and the Mighty Force we are to live by.

Do not look to escape your call and privilege. Be with God. Do not look to flee the wonderful opportunity to grow closer to Jesus in this last hour of the last days. Do not fail to be reconciled and restored to Christ.

Heed God’s call to Truth in this time of great deception and of apostasy from Christ. We are to answer Jesus’ prayer that we be one as the Holy Trinity is one, that the world may believe that the Father sent Jesus. ( John 12:20-23)

Jesus said “Many who are first shall come last, and the last shall come first.” What Jesus is telling us here in Matthew 19:28-30 is that, just like the Apostles who would come to prove their love for Him through great tribulation earning a great closeness to God, we will have the same opportunity of evoking the divine generosity of receiving many times as much of what we lose for Christ’s sake and of inheriting everlasting life. Matthew 19:29)

The Word of God leaves no doubt as to whether there is a pre, mid or post rapture. It cannot be any clearer: It takes place “immediately after the tribulation of those days.” (Matthew 24:29.) It comes after the great tribulation. And it comes after the Great Apostasy from Christ.

The Word of God says:” Let no one seduce you, no matter how. Since the mass apostasy has not yet occurred nor the man of lawlessness been revealed… ( 2 Thess. 2:3)

Jesus is coming. But it cannot be before the Great Apostasy from Christ with the man of lawlessness on the scene. Jesus comes again after and not before the appearance of the lawless one as a part of the workings of Satan, accompanied by all the power and signs and wonders at the disposal of falsehood- by every seduction the wicked can devise for those destined to ruin because they will not open their hearts to the truth in order to be saved. ( 2 Thessalonians 2: 1-12)

Jesus is coming. But not before unleashing of the chain of Satan to the max for a short time, for the last time, at the very end of a long period of time of his being chained from doing much he wanted to do.

The mass apostasy has been taking place, and it is now in full bloom. The man of lawlessness will be reveled soon. The time is upon us brothers and sisters in Christ.

We are in the last hour of the last days. We are in a time when God calls for His revival and restoration in the most impossible time for it. Be with God. Want what He wants. If you want to escape this final witness of His remnant in the evilest of times, then you are not with God but are against Him.

Be true to Christ rather than to ministers and teachers who are deceived, deluded, and who are misleading many, who just do not get it, who are fooled or who are just so full of themselves they are unable to open up to the Holy Spirit. They prefer instead the counterfeit spirit posing as the Holy Spirit.

Most in Christendom as well as in the world have in some way or another given themselves over to an evil. You cannot serve both God and someone or something else and be saved. As just one example there are so many who worship their political party in this country of the USA who are lost because of it. ( 2 Thess. 2:8-10)

Read Matthew 24: 29-51 . What is most important to see is not who is being gathered first, the bad (weeds)or the good (wheat), or whether God sends His angels out to gather the wicked(weeds) for destruction or to gather the good (wheat) taken into heaven, what is being emphasized is the unexpected destruction coming in the last days and the coming of the Son of Man who will deal with the bad and the good in opposite ways. The discrimination between them is based on their readiness for the coming of Jesus in glory.

Jesus tells us that the weeds and the wheat are to grow together until the harvest and that the harvest is the end of the world when He orders the harvesters( His angels) to first collect the weeds and bundle them up to burn, then to gather the wheat into His barn. ( Matthew 13:30)

There is the theme of vigilance and readiness continued with the bold comparison of Jesus to a thief who comes to break into a house. Readiness for the return of Jesus, the Master, means a vigilance that is accompanied by faithful performance of the duty assigned to each one of us.

We are Christ’s servants. The servant who is an unfaithful Christian, and most in some way today are, will be placed where all hypocrites are placed, that place where there is wailing and grinding of teeth.

Jesus does tell us just how it will be at the end of the world as we know it. And His greatest warning is to those Christians at this time claiming to know, love and serve Him who are in fact caught up in the great apostasy. This is the catching up that needs to be talked of by men of God today.

But how many men of God right now are truly with Christ? Jesus saw and warned of the Great Apostasy now taking place on a grand scale. He warned of so many getting caught up in it. See Matthew 13.

See how it really is. Know of the great falling away from Christ so many praising Him and calling Him Savior. See how it will really be. Especially take note of how the Son of Man will dispatch His angels to collect from His kingdom all who draw others to apostasy from Him, and all evildoers! (Matthew13:41)

The fables are destined to burn. Believe what is true to God. Discern prayerfully with God based on sound doctrine and not on unsound doctrine as so many are doing.

God tells us : ” The harvest is the end of the world, while the harvesters are the angels.” (Mt.13:39)He tells us: “The Son of man will dispatch His angels to collect from His kingdom all who draw others to apostasy and all evildoers.” ( Matthew13:41)He tells us: “Then the saints will shine like the sun in their Fathers kingdom.” (Mt. 13:43)

What about 1 Thess. 4:13-18) ? This passage of Holy Scripture tells us that at the coming of our Lord Jesus in glory there will be no advantage for those alive. The dead in Christ will rise first and then those who are alive who are loyal to Him (who are truly in Christ) will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. This passage is about hope for the dead in Christ and not about an escape for those alive in Christ.

We are to live out our privilege of witnessing Christ in this time of great evil just before the Lord does indeed come back again in glory. We are Christ’s witnesses in this time of a great apostasy from Him. (2 Thess. 1:1-12) It is for Christ’s kingdom we will suffer in this time of the Holy Spirit and the angels of God no longer binding the Devil and his demons as has been in the past, restraining them no longer to hold back chaos. (2 Thess. 2:7)

God removes the restrainer in ( 2 Thessalonians 2:7) who is the Holy Spirit, but this does not mean a rapture takes place.

The Holy Spirit has been holding back the secret force of lawlessness. But just because the Holy Spirit ceases to restrain the greatest march of evil known to man in the world does not mean that the Holy Spirit will not be present anymore. It does not mean that He is absent.

Those of you saying the Holy spirit is to be taken away, repent! Stop misleading the people of God!

Taken away? It is not even possible. The Holy Spirit will be here with those, and for those, sealed by God during the tribulation.

Christ’s remnant has the Holy Spirit who dwells within, and they will still be here and give witness to Christ to the very end.

The Holy Spirit is not some angel. He is God. He is omnipresent. He is everywhere at all times. So, He is here in the world during the tribulation when He is no longer holding back Satan’s evil advance on a rebellious mankind against God.

There is no God free zone in the whole of creation. Please understand that the Holy Spirit will be at work in the remnant of God giving witness to God during the tribulation that all who might be saved be saved.

To further make the point: The Holy Ghost will no longer inhibit evil to the degree He had been when the Word of God says He is taken from the scene ( 2 Thessalonians 2:7) Removed from the scene does not mean removed from the world. It means being removed from the situation of holding back Satan’s full blown last stand against God. God allows this because most in this time of ours have not opened their hearts to the truth in order to be saved, including Christians who are apostatizing from God in so many ways with the acceptance of false gospels like that of “once saved always saved” of evils like abortion, adultery, transgenderism and the homosexual lifestyle, even to the point of ordinating priests and ministers who are active sodomites. God does this that all who delight in evildoing be condemned.( 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12)

The result of the Holy Spirit not holding back this great onslaught of Satan’s will result in a time of wickedness far worse than that of Noah’s generation.

The unleashing of many more demons upon us is a punishment from God for the sinfulness of man. But it is especially because of men and woman bearing the mark of Christ, saying they are saved in Christ but who really are traitors and cowards to the faith. ( Revelation 21: 8)

Hear what the Lord has to say through this prophet of His in need of God’s mercy and patience: This will be a time of evangelization, and of a unifying of Christians in answering the prayer of Jesus that we be one as the Father, and Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are one.( John 17:11)

There is to be this answering of His prayer for unity in Him in this most difficult and impossible time for that to take place. God shall prove Himself the Great Victor over Satan that He is. He will prove it in us, His loyal remnant.

The prophet of God does not deny what he hears from God. Nor should you who God also speaks to. Do not look to escape your true destiny in Christ.

Jesus did not ask that we be taken out of the world. Rather He asked that we be guarded from the evil one.( John 17: 15) Jesus saw this day we are living in. He knew it was coming. And He told us He would never leave us orphaned. He told us that He was going to ask the Father to send us the Holy Spirit who would remain with us. And then He did tell us that He would come back for us. ( John 14: 16-18) Jesus is coming back for us. But you must accept what the world cannot, the Spirit of Truth. Believe the Holy Spirit and not the false prophets, ministers and teachers.

Jesus is God. And Jesus is coming again. And when God comes, He will with the breath of His mouth kill the antichrist and overcome Satan and all evil. But how many, even of the very elect in Christendom, will repent of the evil doing before then. How many faithful will Jesus find on earth then? Will He find any faith on the earth? Why does Jesus ask this? Why does He bring it to our attention? (Luke 18:8)

Caught up in a rapture leaving the world Godless and God without any witnesses to the truth? Nonsense.

Many in Christendom have bought into Satan’s agenda. Many have in some way attached themselves to the sacrifice to Satan which is that of abortion. Many have attached themselves in some way to the free love movement which allows fornication and the gay rights agenda which is an abomination to God but a delight of Satan’s. And what you should ask yourself is not when is Jesus coming back but how many in Christendom will receive the mark of the beast? ( Rev. 13:16 -17)

Woe to Mystery Babylon! Woe to the Harlot! Woe to those bent on worship of Satan! Woe to those bent on a worship of God which is polluted! Woe to those wanting a false escape from God’s will them!

The companions of the Lamb ( yes we are still here) will not be defiled by abortion or immorality. We will be found by the Lord without deceit for we will not deny Christ in any way nor will we do homage to the beast by attaching ourselves to the devil’s evil agenda with any acceptance of abortion, fornication, sodomy or by taking the mark of the beast. ( Rev. 14:1 – 5)

Christendom is in great danger. More and more, with each passing moment, we are a people professing Christ who are divided and who are giving ourselves over to the delusions of the day. Most in Christendom are now caught up in some way or another in the Great Apostasy from Christ. That includes many looking to be caught up in a rapture, an escape from what must be according to God’s will, our being the salt of the earth, giving it the flavor of God to the very end.

Salt of the earth? When we go flat and have no flavor to give we become good for nothing. ( Matthew 5:13) When we are lost ourselves from God this makes it harder for the rest of mankind to see the truth and live by it.

I tell you true to God: Despite reproach and persecution, we , the loyal disciples of Christ , not looking to escape our destiny in Christ this hour, are what makes the human community valuable in God’s eyes. We are that salt of the earth, that people of God, who enlighten the world with the light of God’s prophetic word, which we must preach by word and example to the very end.

There is a twisted loyalty to Christ. There are fables loved and adhered to which allow us to follow our own desires with no fear of God. There is a freedom in Christ being believed which allows us to abandon righteousness for the sake of one’s own wants here on earth with the promise of never being lost. Satan has infiltrated us in a big way. We are in trouble. Things must change. We must fight against Satan in the Church.

But how many are left in God’s house who will open their hearts to Truth? Yet, even if a very few, we must do so, lest the number grow even fewer who are lost in God’s House, and many others lost never come back to God. Expect to be raptured out of here? What you can expect is great reproach and persecution, even at the hands of your own brethren.

Furthermore, there is no premature rapture, but if there were a premature rapture it would not be as arrogant men of God are telling it. If our Lord were to come back today, most who are Christians would find themselves still here. And Jesus would take up every sheep of His who indeed are of a pure heart and mind, Christian and non-Christian. With God there is no favoritism.( Wisdom 6:7, Matthew 16:27, Romans 2:5-11, Ephesians 6:9, Revelation 22:12) Jesus is the Good Shepherd who knows His sheep and His sheep know Him. ( John 10:14) Thus, if there was a premature rapture there would be no virtuous and holy men and women with hearts toward God left on earth, only wicked men and women. God will not hand the world He created over to the wicked. There will remain on earth hope for the wicked to the very end. For the Lord wants none to perish. And He wants all, even the very wicked, to come to repentance. What did Jesus say about leaving the 99 sheep for the one lost? Believe what you will, but all at the very least will be given the chance to hear the truth, to see its example, and to possibly embrace it.

As for the two witnesses ( Rev. 11:1-3)who must give their testimony before the return of the Lord, I know of one with the mark of Elijah who has sat for some time now, and who still sits, for the moment, working with God at refining and purifying men of God, who calls with God for all people who will take heed of the truth and prepare the way of the Lord to do so. ( Malachi 3:1-24)He is caught up in the struggle and he is in great need of prayer. He is just a man like any other who is tempted and who sometimes sins. He is a man, who without God’s grace to repent and do better, who without his using God’s grace to do so, would be of no use to God.

This messenger who yields to God in this call to help prepare His way has written many sons of Levi as God has asked. But as of yet not one has responded as he should have. As he should have! Who indeed will endure what is from God in this time of great evil even in Christendom and of centuries of lies mixed with truth? (Malachi 3:2)

The hearts of all are to be turned to each other in obedient love of God. Men of God who have ears to hear God are to be refined and purified that all offer due sacrifice to God. ( Malachi 3:3)

In measuring God’s temple and altar counted are those who worship God there, in that place where the truth is embraced. Embraced there is all the truth of God, especially that of God Himself in the Holy Eucharist.

Christ is real in the Holy Eucharist! And only in God’s truth of this Covenant of God will you find what you desire. Anyone who says different is not a prophet of God in good standing.

The false prophets will say otherwise. Those who are true to God will not argue against what is being said, for God will make known to them in their hearts: That if they do argue against it, then they will have aligned themselves against God and His true restoration in this time of a great demand from God, great testing, and also a time of great confusion and many lies mixed with truth, and of a great apostasy from Christ.

Embrace humility and open your eyes up to the many things you now do not see which God wills that you do see. Follow the lead of those who are bent on ignoring God’s witness and rebuke and you follow them to your own doom.

Do not be found among the many who will go on to the end mocking God’s restoration in this time of great trial and tribulation. Beware of those who go on holding up a false salvation in Christ, a false restoration in Christ, and other falsehoods such as a false rapture.

Stop fooling yourselves and others, you many men of God ,and you many following their lead, who believe in the fables fashioned from taking the Word of God out of context and fashioned from misinterpretations which allow the tickling of the ear which gives you over to following your desires, and which has you thinking you can do this and be saved by the Blood of the Holy One who died on the Cross that you indeed be saved. ( 2 Timothy 4:1-5) If you do not heed God’s rebuke and leave what it false and embrace what is true, you will perish in the Great Apostasy as you are unable to endure the rebuke of the Lord and the true restoration of Christ.

You, who think you know it all and have it all, who refuse to let God tell you what He wants, who instead dictate to God, you are very much the Bride of Christ playing the harlot.

God does not renounce any of His people who are unfaithful. Those who are unfaithful renounce Him. The Bride of Christ is betrothed to Christ but not in doing what is wrong and evil. God means to chastise in the manner of a jealous lover longing to bring back his beloved. He wants to restore all in His House practicing harlotry to the fresh and pure joy of our first love. Woe to you men of God who sneer at this!

God will not be without His Bride on earth until His coming again. But Hs Bride will have a dutiful love based on the Covenant of God. It is a love fulfilled by the performance of mutual obligations.

God’s marriage is to be embraced and not forbid! The sacraments (foods) which God created to be received with thanksgiving by believers who know the truth is to be restored to all who go on with God. ( 1 Timothy 4:1-5) All the sacraments(foods) of God are good and none are to be rejected. And all the statues and ordinances for us from God are to be restored to all open to God. (Malachi 3:22-24)

The prophet Hosea began the tradition of describing the relationship between Yahweh and us in terms of marriage. You men of God skirting around the real issues of the day and the need of repentance by many who are the Bride of Christ, and of God’s true restoration would do well to reflect upon the Book of Hosea doing so with God and not on your own.

St John and St Paul both expressed in that same union of marriage between God and His Church. Blessed are those men of God who want the truth, the whole truth. Blessed are those of you who do not pick and choose what truth you want or do not want. Blessed are those of you who are not afraid of God’s refining and purifying and who will endure it!

Truth is not arrived at by a consensus. The Spirit of Truth does not depend upon a man or by consensus votes for truth. Stop with the nonsense and rebellion you men of God who are acting if this is not so. God is Truth! Hear Him! Obey Him!

In this, the last hour of truth against falsehood, it is Truth who wills the marriage between Him and His Bride be as it should be. It is Truth who wills that all of us Christians be restored in Christ to all things in Christ who is God.

You sons of Levi who are refusing to believe this with your actions or lack of them as they should be, who are resisting God, and who have acted against the marriage God wills, and who have acted against one of the Foods of God( Sacraments) which are to be received and not abstained from( I wrote you first Jimmy)( I wrote you second James), you do as you do in danger of being the very elect who are cowards and traitors to the faith.

It will not go well for you mocking and sneering men ruled by your prejudices and desires. Though you may speak the truth often, you do not have Truth in you.

Though in the past God’s mercy prevailed, the false movements in God’s House today which do away with God’s foods ( sacraments) have no place in the hearts of those in God’s House who will go on with God, who hear God and who love Him true. The watered down faith will have you standing in fire if you stand with it in this hour. Opposition to God’s restoration, beginning with the princes of His people, will not have you free from corruption but enslaved to it.

We are a very divided Christendom which God loves so much all of us.

God has not told me how this restoration and revival of His is to take place, only that all of us are to pray about it and seek the Holy Spirit who will show us the way.

The Holy Spirit pours out His grace upon us that each one of us be brought to the right attitude and action and we escape the great deception and there be in our lives love, charity, humility, lamentation and repentance, honesty and obedience and His restoration and revival. But we have to use His grace to do as we must. Then we have a sincere love of God.

Use God’s grace and come out from the spell you are under, all of you who have been praising Jesus but who have been turning away from the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit prompts us to reject the watered-down faith and to embrace the true gospel of Christ.

Those of you who have been drowning out God’s voice telling you that there is a drifting away by many professing Christ from the faith, from the salvation in Christ which is real to a salvation in Christ which is false- with its idols of arrogance, infidelity, blasphemy, perversion of faith, denial of truth, denial of Christ, and overconfidence and the like, embrace the Holy Spirit. Embrace Him! Embrace His rescue!

We must ready ourselves. We must ready ourselves, not to be taken out of here by God, but to give the greatest witnessing to Jesus of all time.

We must prepare to distinguish ourselves as God’s holy people instead of looking to escape our privilege. Rejoice and be glad! Give glory to the Lord who is our King and our God. Together with those in heaven, let us sing the song of victory! ( Rev. 19:5-10)

We are to be here during the tribulation coming. We are to combat evil. We are to root out sin and bad habits in our lives. We are to have positive resolves and actions of serving God better, of loving God and each other with pure hearts. We must not be looking to be zapped out of here up into the kingdom of God. We must not be looking to escape our responsibilities in this world we live. Rather, we must be looking to do our part to bring the kingdom of God to earth.

When the Son of man does come in His glory, He will separate all mankind into two groups, as a shepherd who separates sheep from goats. The sheep He will place on His right hand. The goats He will place on His left. The sheep are saved.

And just how does are Lord describe who are the sheep and who are the goats? See 9 Matthew 25;31-46)

We are called as God’s witnesses to Christ. Yet how many among us rather are pretenders to Christ whereas there are those non-Christians who do not neglect to do for the Lord what He asks of His sheep?

Be among those who are placed on the right side of Jesus at His second coming. For the King will say to those on His right, Christian and non-Christian alike: “Come. You have my Fathers blessing! Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world.” Then He will say to those on His left, both Christian and non-Christian alike: Out of my sight you condemned, into that everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels!”

Some who are wicked will turn virtuous in this last hour of the last days. While sadly many who were among the virtuous have turned already from God in many ways and many more will turn wicked in the days ahead.

Within the Christian rebellion against God, so terrible now as its banner evokes the name of Jesus in its evil, there is God who loves all of us, even the very worst of us, who works for all of us to be a people who when He returns will be caught up in the air with Him unceasingly.

Fight against the devil in the Church, not with the devil against God. You cannot do so without the Holy Spirit. Call upon the Holy Spirit!

You are not with God if you are against Him in His rebuke and restoration. Delight not in evil.

Many of you looking to be raptured out of here, what you are already caught up in is the Great Apostasy from Christ. (2Thess. 2: 1-12) Before the Lord comes again what we all must look for is to wash our robes in Christ’s truth.

For the moment, that which is greatly needed, rebuke and the ministering of lamentation and repentance, is being grumbled against. What is seen on a large scale instead in Christendom is the acceptance of lies and sin, merrymaking and flattery, prosperity preaching and insincere love of God resting in desires of the flesh and in compromises with evils and the world and the prince of this world, Satan.

Jesus is going to make very happy those of us who do wash our robes in His truth forsaking what is not of Him. As for the proud among us and all evil-doers, they are going to be the ones removed by the Lord.

Near at hand is destruction and great darkness and gloom. There shall be no escape for any on this earth, including the innocent, from Gods punishment. But the remnant, who are not braggarts looking to escape their privilege, who do not exalt themselves over others, who are a people humble and lowly, who shall take refuge in the Lord, the Lord shall have compassion on them and the kindness of the Lord is from eternity to eternity to we who fear Him.
( Psalm 103:17)

The guarantee of life and union with God is through the presence of the Holy Spirit in your soul. He who is Holy cannot dwell in a soul defiled. God shows no partiality. The unholy of Christendom will not fall heir to the kingdom of God. Do not be deceived. ( Corinthians 6:9-11)

The revelation of God’s choice of Israel to be the people of God did not mean He withheld the divine favor from other men. How can you not know this and know that it is true also concerning His Christendom? Would that all men of God realize what Peter realized and tell it: That Jesus is Lord not of a few( not just of Christians) but of all men. ( Acts 10: 34-36)

We Christians are the people of God to be His witnesses in this time. We are the Bride of Christ. Christ is the only way to the Father. But also true is that there is Baptism of desire. God alone is judge.

You men of God preaching Christ blind in pride, such as you do about who is worthy of a rapture, of who is worthy of heaven and who is not, stop!

None of God’s people are to live as witnesses to Christ blind in pride. Pride will blind you to the truth and it will lead you to one wrong turn after another.

It is pride which blinds many in Christendom to the false notion of a premature rapture. It is pride which blinds many in Christendom to judge other people unworthy of this rapture- either because they are not Christians or they are not Christians like them in their beliefs. Christians are not the only sheep of the Lord.

We are a Christendom divided and under a great attack which has us looking for the wrong things.

We are on the run and wrongfully treating God by wrongfully treating other sheep of His. Our relationship with God must be one with contrite hearts embracing humility. With the help of God we all can realize, not only that there are sheep of God, but that we Christians are in great danger of being lost sheep of Christ.

Wake up! We are Christ’s witnesses to the very end. Realize that we are a people which for the greater part are compromised with evils in some way or another. Leave the fable of a premature rapture and all other false fables as well and run to the Holy Spirit moving all to lamentation and repentance and a true witness to Christ in this last hour of the last days.

The Lord is more powerful than Satan in the affairs of those who truly love Him. Jesus will be greeted on the other side of great tribulation by a Bride who prepared herself for the wedding by using His grace to be loyal and devoted to Him in a time of great confusion, many lies mixed with truth, and a great falling away.

The Bride of Christ does not foolishly look for Him and want what is selfish. The Bride of Christ keeps in mind to the very end that Jesus gave Himself up for her, to make her holy, purifying her in the bath of water by the power of His Word, that He present to Himself a glorious Church, holy and immaculate, without stain or blemish.

The Holy Spirit gathers a people to a living faith in Christ and not a dead one. The Holy Spirit gathers a people to receive and not reject the Foods of God (sacraments of Christ) which He created which give life and strength as Satan works to have the members of Christ’s family take their leave.

Jesus is coming again. But not before He who is God and who is always in complete control gives Satan his last stand and men and women their last trial, His last trial, including His virtuous Christians.

Jesus is coming again. And what does God tell us must be before then? ” Let the wicked continue in their wicked ways, the depraved in their depravity! The virtuous must live on in their virtue and the holy ones in their holiness! ( Rev. 22:11)

” But when the Son of Man comes, will He find any faith on earth? ” ( Luke 19:7-8)Jesus said this that we would not fall victim to the great apostasy from Him. He said this so that we not be of a self-righteous mind and attitude but of a fundamental mind and attitude of a Christian disciple true to Him. Being true to Him demands that we must recognize sinfulness and complete dependence on God’s graciousness. Yet it just may be that He finds little faith on earth.

Again, Jesus is coming again. But not before unleashing even more the devil for a short time, for the last time, at the very end of a very long period of time of his being chained from doing much he has wanted to do and has asked God to do.

Again, Jesus is coming again. But not before the lawless one appears as a part of the workings of Satan, accompanied by all the power and signs and wonders at the disposal of falsehood- by every seduction the wicked can devise for those destined to ruin because they have not opened their hearts to the truth in order to be saved. ( 2 Thess. 2:8-10)

Abortion is evil. Any acceptance of it is evil. Fornication and sodomy is evil. Any acceptance of these wrongful sexual desires is evil. Same sex marriage is of Satan. The use of human brain organoids with computers is evil. Any acceptance of any pf this and more that is evil is allegiance to Satan.

These are some of the tests of our time. God is just as He has sent upon the irreligious perverse spirits which leads them to give credence to falsehood so that all have it not in them to believe the truth but who delight instead in evil doing will be condemned. The Lord is fair. It is men and women who are not fair. ( 2 Thess. 2:11-12, Matthew 16:4, Romans 1: 24-32)

The serpent is being freed from his prison to the point of his doing such things as to bring the Most High to send him and those who join with him into the utter darkness of oblivion for all time.

Be with Christ. Receive the Holy Spirit. Receive the Spirit of Truth and reject the counterfeit spirit posing as God.

God be with you. One who loves Christ and seeks to follow Him as He asks, and who needs to do better, your brother Eddie John Soblotne
