Oh how easy it is for many to brush off the Word of God as fable or story and accept the beliefs of man. Can't see, feel or touch so it must not be true. Yet they can readily accept the theory and beliefs of men. Yes even though the bible has made accurate predictions for thousands of years many who are elite, wealthy, powerful, well known and even so called educated shuck the bible off as old wives tales, stories, passed down fables and untruths. They prefer as the Word says, to pursue deceiving spirits.
Now Jesus said he also comes, get this, to divide. That means some will accept his teaching and some will reject it. Searching for something else they never find it or are trapped by another false doctrine. So in my opinion that is why Jesus says father against son, etc, etc, etc. Why should this be? Well because it must be for all that is to happen to come to be. It is that simple. If God wanted to enforce belief then we would not need faith, trust. By fact we would not have what we have as Christians, the Blessed Hope.
Yet as I stated and we know many have formed their own doctrines, beliefs, interpretations even though the bible is quite clear about this and actually speaks to it as prophecy. Well in those deeds they have once again fulfilled the Word of God for in the end time there will come these types. Many will come in my name preaching false doctrines that could deceive even the elect if it were possible. I like that word elect which many tend to overlook. It speaks to those God has chosen and therefore he shall not lose not one He has been given by God the Father.
Now a really good friend of mine, one very close, although not related, we call brother as in real brother, not religious, stated he does not believe the bible. He claims what is being talked about in that book, earthquakes, famines, wars, etc, etc, etc, has been going on for thousands of years and nothing has changed. It is the same as it was. Yes, even while I love him he is an example of prophecy fulfilled. Is he a good man, certainly and he truly believe in what he says and does. He finds no fault in it. In fact he leaves it all up to God. Many will say this is complete faith. No not works but trust.
Yes and he sits on the councils of a church and is considered knowledgeable. Yet he knows nothing of Gods word but what one tells him or talks to him about or he has made up himself. He never read it, really understood it or looked at it, yet people go to him for knowledge about Jesus Christ and God and he passes "his" beliefs onto them and they accept it. Now many of us do that. We selectively take what we want and discard the rest or find excuses for not believing it. [The View from the Pew] He now even influences the youth of that church and is even a lay minister in the church. Sadly, there are many like him. Professing openly their belief while inwardly believing something else and actually doing something else. Yes and not one in that church challenges him, why? If the Word is Literal why not all the Words. If the Word speaks to it why is it wrong why place another interpretation that fits man? Perhaps that is why we have so many denominations and consequently interpretations and subsequently confusion? Does this in of itself divide the house of God? No not confusion from God. His Word is very explicit. It is man who places the twists on it all.
He is also pro choice in a church that is against abortion yet he professes openly the Creed of that church and what beliefs that church holds to. How many others are there that do the same? So, why be a member of that church or any church if YOU do not practice what you profess?
Now prophesy was written by men hundreds of years before Christ came through the revelation of the Holy Spirit. You see you have to believe in God and know that God is spirit to believe at all. In those Words they told of his anticipated coming and how all would know Him. How he would come, the signs and every single thing was, get this, fulfilled. They also spoke HUNDREDS OF YEARS AFTER HE CAME as to how he will return . That is so they say, right? We can't even find anything concerning one Jesus Christ, right? Yet we can find things all about that point to it as fact and not fiction.
Now God said it is a work of faith. If God wanted it to be any other way he would have done it that way. No, only by faith are you justified. No proof necessary. So that in of itself points to why it is so hard for many to understand. The cannot see and are blind. No, nothing to do with education or intelligence. Like Catholic belief in the Word concerning the Eucharist, faith in that Jesus said it. Yes and many fled from that doctrine as well even though Jesus spoke about that very thing happening.
Now I of course am ridiculed for professing my beliefs by non believers and professed believers alike. How dare I speak to men with such knowledge and wealth. Well sorry, they are right, who am I nothing, a nobody. Yet I believe I am blessed for that belief. However, what I am saying is not what I have dreamed of or thought of or made up on my own but what God has said in HIS WORD. Yes and for that I am the one who is no longer needed in their church.
So God also speaks to the last days and he speaks to this very distinctly. He gives signs and symbols to be aware of. Oh, they have always been with us is the answer of those with their own doctrines. Yes and as God said believers, yes believers shall know when the coming is even at the door. WOW, how really significant. No not the day or the hour but AT THE DOOR.
The signs and symbols are scattered throughout the book and yes the Christian church even looks for his coming or is that just another day or weeks to some? Like advent for Catholics? Do they really look or is it just another ritual?
So this Pope, Russia, the weather, earthquakes, famines, how people are, wars and rumors of wars, ethic cleansing, financial wealth of great abundance, power in the hands of the few, greed, exploitation and evil that literally waxes cold are all here and now, before us.
So many will laugh, scoff and come with any number of reasons that what I and many have written to before is just fools work. Yet many in the church, up until now, did not take it as the time as well. Yet now, Israel has been restored after 2000 years [check out the Balfore declaration] Jerusalem has been returned to the Jews, Russia [Rosh, etc in the Word] is starting up her evil again. Will she persist, well check the latest threats from the West, hollow empty attempts to get them to back off. All the while the Kings of the East grow with each passing day numbering millions in their military might grows as it grows with each passing moment and for what purpose. Yes and people wonder why?
Iran, Persia, Syria, and the other Arab nations who plot against Israel, all coincidence, they have been around for thousands of years as well, right? The world looks at it all and looks with the eyes of the world. Those in the spirit look and see it all in a much different way and see Gods hand in it all.
Yes, should those in the world think any differently? After all, what faith will Christ find when he returns? I find it very interesting when we speak of the rapture. That I am not sure when it will come but multiple times it speaks that all will not die or be dead when hey meet the Lord.
It also says that God will start will this own house to get them right. There will be suffering and trail and that is to be expected. He also says this is a time to repent and make it all right before him. Certainly not all will understand this, nor care about it. It is just not in their thinking. As in the days of Noah.
Now will some who are borderline be here when Christ returns, you bet. Then they will know and recognize what took place. IN fact they are required to be here. They will be hauled before "kings and rulers" and asked to give an account of themselves, some will deny and some will die for Him yet live.
A fools tale many will say. Yet we know there will be no place to hide for those who reject Jesus Christ. No where. Not even under the rocks. So, I, a nothing, no prophet, of little importance to the world offer anyone who will listen His Word, not mine. After all he speaks to you as well directly.
In my opinion it is time to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, you and your household and get right with Him. I certainly know not the day or the hour, but like the bridesmaid we are to be ever watchful. Could it be close or still far away? Does it matter, only in the sense of getting right that we not be caught off guard. Yes look to Russia, the weather, the earth, to the middle east, etc for your answers for they are all before those who see with open eyes in the spirit. Do not worry about the next person for each has their own choice to make but concentrate on you and your loved ones and as many who will hear your call.
Peace be with you and for those of you who do not know and they say to you here is the Christ or there is the Christ or he is the Christ know that many will came saying "I Am" but as lightning flashes from East to West so will the coming of the Son of Man be. remember that if you find yourself one who I have spoken about and remember it well.

Top-level comments on this article: (1 total)Hi Robert, very well put together. There is no surprise in the scoffing. Peter told us it would happen. But what does it say? The Lord is not slack concerning his promises, but is patient, not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance. We are indeed waiting for the "fullnessof the gentiles" to come. I for one do not want to go just yet as there are still many who need to get off the fence. Not so many are watching Russia--but they play a huge role in the end times prophecy. Thanks for sharing and proclaiming truth. God Bless you!Please log in to respond to this comment.Teresa, hello and how are you and yours? I hope all is well?
