(This may be a lengthy post, but worth it, click on a scripture to open the Bible verse)
As stated in previous blogs, this post will prove that 'It Is Written' that Christians will be in the Great Tribulation that shall come upon the whole earth. More importantly, be ready to meet the Lord everyday; the perils that are happening in our country daily, we must keep our loins girt about us, keep the faith, press-in, pray and fast more, read God's Word more than ever before, serve and love like Christ. It's About to get Real!
I'm
not convinced that Americans should really be concerned about "when"
Christ shall come to take "ready-Christians" out of this
world, since I see America destroyed first, while
the with
the rest of the world witnessing the glorius appearing of our Lord.
America is quickly destroying herself from the inside out, no war, no hostile government needed with sins, backslidings, opposers of God and His people, numerous evils, violence and upheavals, and all the other things that bring judgement and utter destruction to any nation. America must Repent!
So
to keep this under 5 pages i'll emphasize those scriptures that
should obviously point to 'when' and 'how' not
day nor hour but
the "closeness of it by signs Jesus told us (yes
us)
to look for.
Daniel Chapter 12
10..."Many
shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do
wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall
understand.
11 And from the time that the
daily sacrifice shall
be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there
shall be a
thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he
that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and
thirty days.
13 But go thou thy way till the end be:
for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the
days."
[Notice
in verse 11... 1,290 days is 3 and a half years (Tribulation is 7
years long) and The Prophet Daniel was told in verse 12 "Blessed
is he that "waiteth" til 1,335 days...which points to an end of trouble and deliverance; This appears to indicate
the Saints are taken "out" in Revelation 7:14, The saints are "taken
Out of Great Tribulation, Mid-Trib]
In Revelation 12:6 it
says:..."And
the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared
of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two
hundred and threescore
days."
[1,260
days is 3.45 years, which tells us we are in a place prepared as the
Bible tells us until the "indignation be overpast"] in
...Isaiah 26
20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation (wrath) be overpast.
21 For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
[I've
heard alot of arguments from believers about this topic. There is no argument
needed, let's just live Holy, be ready in America to get out of here
at any moment with or without the catching away of Saints. Many
Believe "God would never ___..." as though we are "bullet-proof Saints", better than John the Baptist who was executed,
better than the Apostles who were crucified, better than Stephen the
first recorded martyr, better than Jesus who was stoned, beaten,
hunted down, mocked, whipped and crucified. Remember the Lion's Den, and the Firey Furnace. The Bible plainly
says "They shall deliver You to the councils, and persecute
you". In Matthew chapter 24 it should be plain to us that
we will experience Great Tribulation in the end. Jesus is
answering Disciples about When shall the end be. Notice Jesus says
"When You shall
see these things..." not when They shall
see these things.
Remember if we are afraid of the enemy in the end, or follow what the world says makes sense by taking "the mark of the beast" so we can eat, drink, buy, sell and continue with our lives, then we shall lose eternal life, but if we insist on waiting for Jesus and refusing this world's good then we shall find eternal life with Jesus Christ, Forever!]
Matthew 16:25
“For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.”
Matthew Ch 24
15"When
ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by
Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, whoso readeth, let him
understand:"
[Disciples
of Jesus will obviously still be on earth when the false prophet sets
up the "abomination of desolation", which is a beast
(possible nuclear-machine-programmed to keep every documented man and
things he own$) that the earth would fear due to it's destructive,
controlling, capabilities to disentegrate anything it's
programmed to target, and that the anti-christ would order humanity
to worship it, it's image, take it's mark and denounce all other gods
and worship him]
In Revelation 14:12 tells us plainly
that those who do not take the mark of the beast or his image are the
saints and it says] ...
12Here
is the patience of the saints: here are they
that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of
Jesus. Revelation 14
“For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.”
[Revelation
chapter 14 is very clear as a warning to Christians to not take the
mark and that the "Harvest of the Earth is Ripe", meaning we are about to be delivered] although this
should be the conclusion of this post .... let's look at
2nd Thessalonians Ch 2
[This
chapter tells us about our "Gathering together unto the Lord and
what precedes it, what will happen First. . It also tells us 'there will be a "great falling away" from the faith, (inevitable for believers who fear they've been left, since we are still here) Verse 7 is the one
most misunderstood by doubters of the Mid-Trib rapture...since
doubters believe the "mystery of Iniquity" is the Church
holding up the anti-Christ from showing up. Iniquity is sin, the
Church IS NOT the mystery of lawlessness! The unrevealed man of sin,
the anti-Christ is yet The Mystery, but shall be revealed The passage
of Scripture saying "only he that now lets (the mystery of
Iniquity work) will continue to let it work until he (son of sin) is taken out of
the way"; and the Lord will end up destroying him by the brightness of
Christ's coming.
The Brightness of Christ's coming is not the
rapture (gathering together of the Saints) The rapture is quiet
and swift, no brightness, no noise, quick as a bat of the eyes,
"Like" a thief in the night. The Word of God warns us that
"ye brethren are not in darkness, that that day should overtake
You as a thief, for I have fortold you". Some think this "darkness" is the Tribulation, but it's telling us we are not in the dark as to what is going to happen, we are in the light, we Know, because we have been forewarned. To the world it
will be a surprising shock, but not to us who believe, are wise, are
looking for Him and yearn for His return according as His Word have
said.
The Church, the Bride is not referred to as a "He"
in the Bible, when spoken of in the singular form we are called
"Bride" when spoken in a plural form we are "sons of
God sheep, servants, saints, etc; 2nd Thessalonians is not calling the Church a "he who
now lets". Be of good courage Saints, let not fears
and spiritual pride make us refuse, and say that "the Lord would
nevva, evva let Us enter Great Tribulation". Trust
God, Believe the Word. Watch and Pray!
