“While what is going on may not affect us personally yet, what is going on will keep getting closer to affecting EVERYONE. Church of Jesus Christ, we MUST begin praying intercession and protection over this country’s freedoms we have enjoyed our whole lives but have taken for granted for probably that long too. Hold onto your faith. Reach out to others that need to know Jesus as Savior. Support each other and let baseless arguments end. We need to be in one mind and one accord to see the hand of the Lord rescue us, whether physically in this world or spiritually to get ready to leave this world. The endgame may have begun. Read Ezekiel 37, for it seems to already be happening right now … the people of Israel are returning to their country. That might mean 38 and 39 are upon us, and if so then we might be leaving sooner than was expected. Pray. Read. Share. Church of the Living God, Redemption is drawing nigh to ALL who know Jesus Christ as their Savior. We NEED a Revival of HIS people – ALL of the Christians and Messianic Jews alike! Read the Book, DON’T WAIT FOR THE MOVIE like White Heart’s song stated in 1986! Like so many of their songs that were prophetic then, they are even more so NOW in 2021.”
The words in the quotes was a post I put on Facebook 01/24/21. I thought it was only going to be a ‘post’, but as I thought about it hours later I realized it was the beginning of another Op-Ed meant for a much larger media outlet sharing. While it said what I was thinking about the most then it didn’t give the whole picture I’d intended. In case anyone thought I was making up the claim that many were going back to Israel then you would be completely wrong. I based this fact on actual verified news from two sources. It’s been happening actually since before Covid-19.
Due to several word-wide situations happening, including here in the United States, I’m aware that Christians all over the world are dealing with what all who claim Christ might face in even a few years from now if the Rapture doesn’t take place soon. Yes, I realize that people have been claiming that the Rapture would be happening at their certain dates, events, or ‘signs’ for as long as the oldest living person in 2021 has been alive. There are still defining things that really haven’t been around before now though, so those changes do make a difference that matters.
Technology has become a continually changing thing that could create some things spoken of in prophecy that couldn’t be explained properly by previous writers from hundreds to thousands of years ago. Even physical descriptions of today’s weapons would be different and unable to even be imagined for centuries. In writing my Eirinth Book 2 with characters from present-day Earth translated to medieval style Eirinth, I realized how different things could be viewed in that situation… computers and screens alone would be seen as ‘supernatural’ in nature.
Point of view is a thing that all writers have to consider while writing scenes, emotions, places, and even fighting sequences. With all of the different countries involved in following the anti-Christ and in the fighting during the end of the Great Tribulation Battle of Armageddon, I have to shake my head in horror and sadness from thinking about those that are on Earth then. My point of view right now is before the actual time, and I’m trying to find something to help as many as I can to understand that God Almighty made the Way to keep anyone from being in that!
How can mankind refuse the loving gift of Grace that costs you nothing but belief? “Wait!” some of you shout in anger, “I can’t do this, and I can’t do that, so it costs me everything I want!” When you really understand and believe that Jesus Christ died to save you from Hell then you WANT to follow what HE told His believers to do. ALL of what He says to NOT do IS to protect you. Do I understand WHY? Yes. It really helps if you study what the Christian Holy Bible says to see the reasoning for the whys and the NOTs. Doing a ‘NOT’ can end up being deadly.
I have drunk alcohol. I have smoked cigarettes. I have had sex outside of marriage. I have cussed. I have written some things that I will see burned up in front of me at the judgement seat of Christ too. I’m not perfect. I simply accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, Lord, King, and God Almighty in the Son. Do I ever doubt? Yes, I do. I also tell God all the time that IF I’m wrong and end up disappearing from existence at my death instead of being in Heaven with Him, then how could I have felt His Holy Spirit in me with His gifts being used? That IS my proof!
I would rather believe on Jesus Christ than go in the direction of any religion. They would lead to eternity in Hell with Satan and his demons. Heaven with Jesus or even existence dust would be MUCH BETTER than the alternative. All the other religions I’ve studied have a person ‘work’ for any hope of not being destroyed. The love and fellowship of my Jesus versus the coldness of religion is not even a point I consider. I’ve had the Holy Spirit move through me for the past 35 years in private and in church services, and that’s WHY doubt falls to my Faith experience.
Test the Holy Spirit. God told us to seek, ask, test, and even question in several scriptures. God Almighty wants for us to KNOW HIM PERSONALLY. This is what all ‘religions’ can’t understand. While Christianity is categorized as that too and even has songs with that designation used, I think we really should call it a Supernatural Experience instead. This is WHY the apostles were told to wait in Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit to come to them. Jesus wanted them to have the Comforter to remind them, console them, teach them, and empower them so doubt would fail.
It’s easy to get bewildered, frustrated, downtrodden, fearful, and even depressed right now with the crazy things going on in this world. I sometimes wish I could travel back in time to when things seemed more balanced than they are now. Then I think about possibly missing the moment when Jesus Christ returns to take His people, both Christians and Messianic Jews home to Heaven, and I can’t afford to miss THAT! I’m encouraging every person to take a spiritual test regarding Jesus Christ, compare the scriptures with the news, and PRAY for God to give you His Light!
