September 2011

This month will see the Feast of Trumpets 2011. It will also see the arrival of "comet" ELE-nin. What else will happen in the month of September? The Lord knows. Could the escape from all rapture of the Church happen this month? It is possible.

What does this mean for us? We must be ready and we must be watching. What happens if the month of September is just another month of continual economic collapse (ongoing) and once in a century natural disasters (that are now routine and ongoing) and the rapture does not occur this month? We continue to watch and wait until our Lord shows up for us. Its very simple but not very easy to do.

We have half of us ready to go at all times and half ready to stay and wait. We are always torn between the necessity of living here from day to day while we eagerly await the salvation that will be revealed when the Lord returns for us. We are ready to go and ready to stay.... always. A tall order by any standard.

Whatever is happening to people today, it is not normal. This writers observation of people shows that something out of the ordinary is afflicting all of us. This writer certainly feels it. This writer also sees it in everyone he looks at in the world around him. Any explanation for what is happening around us that does not include some kind of extra-ordinary component is immediately dismissed by this writer as disinformation because it does not jive with what he is seeing firsthand.

Our bibles tell us that many extra-ordinary events are coming. Most of these events will be very bad for this world. Those who belong to this world, those whose entire hope is in this world oppose this message with every fiber of their being. Everything they hoped to get from this world is quickly escaping their grasp even now. Those of us who do not belong to this world are looking for our true home, which is with the Bridegroom in the heavens. This looking for the Bridegroom is also known as the blessed hope. Do not allow anyone to steal your hope today.

What is the Lord saying to this writer today? Focus on the fundamentals. Ask yourself what needs to be done and do it. Focus on the necessary few things, get those things done and only fit in the trivial many when and where there is room. Praise the Lord always. This is coming through to this writer's spirit loud and clear. PRAISE THE LORD ALWAYS. Its difficult if not impossible to remain in a depressed, hopeless state when the Lord's praises are continually rolling out of your mouth. We were meant to declare His praises. We are to enter His courts with thanksgiving and rejoicing.

Do you feel like a darkness and a heaviness is hovering over your head just about daily? If so, welcome to planet earth today. All of us who have any spiritual sensitivity whatsoever detect this darkness that lies of humanity like a blanket today. Want to break through it and get some brightness shining down on your spirit? Then start praising the Lord. Open your mouth, this is not a something you do quietly. Let all the heavens hear the praises and glory for Him who so richly deserves all the glory and honor and power forever and ever. When your praises are going up, the Lord is coming down right to where you are. No darkness can dwell with the all consuming fire that is our Lord. When you have the Lord's presence through your praise, the darkness MUST flee away from you. When you enter a room and turn on a light switch the darkness MUST leave to make way for the light...every time without fail. Its a law you can observe with your own eyes, so use it to your benefit.

Focus on the fundamentals. What few things does your mind understand that you must do every day? Do those things. Make sure those things include praise and worship and time in the Word. The Word is our life we cannot do without it. If you have missed days don't beat yourself up, get to it today. Yesterday is gone forever. Let the praise of the Lord be found in your mouth TODAY. He is worthy of receiving all of it.

Be ready. The month of September has the potential to be extraordinary. It could be just another month. Probabilities tell us that nothing "extra-ordinary" will happen. Thats why the word extra is in extra-ordinary. Do not confuse what is probable with what is possible. The world as we have known it seems poised to turn upside down both literally and figuratively any moment now.

Keep the faith. grace and peace

Earthquake

I felt my own house rumble with the major east coast earthquake today and I was nowhere close to the epicenter.

The only thing I could think was at this general point in time for the world its for real. No more free lunch passes for bad behavior. Lord help us all.

How Do We Watch?

The Lord has impressed upon this writer for many years now the need for us to be continually watching. So when you read the posts here you see "be watching" over and over and over again. If you have ever asked "how do we watch?" This post is for you.

Matt 26:36 Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” 37He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”

39Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

40Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. 41“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

Keep watch "with me" the Lord said and what was the Lord doing? He way praying...

Colossians 4:2
... Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;

Continue and watch in prayer is what "watch in the same" means here ^^^


1 Peter 4:7
... But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. ...

^^^ Here it is said directly "watch unto prayer"

Jesus was praying and he told the disciples "keep watch with me." So how was Jesus "watching?" He was watching in and through prayer. Why prayer? The sight needed to do the watching Jesus commanded us to do is spiritual sight. Spiritual things are seen with spiritual eyes and this is done through prayer as demonstrated by our Lord.

The Fact of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture. More Pre-tribulation Rapture Proof.

This writer has written extensively on the pre-tribulation rapture. The pre-tribulation rapture is a FACT, it will happen, guaranteed by the scriptures. Yes, there are many writers, preachers, and teachers (more every day) who will argue with you about this but the bottom line is...they are wrong.

The Lord told us there is an escape from all coming (Luke 21:36). That's a fact. If there were no escape from all, that would make Jesus a liar, wouldn't it? Yes it would, and yet how many people today teach that there is no escape from all? How many people today that call themselves "christians" are calling Jesus a liar through their teaching and doctrine? Those who call the Lord a liar through their doctrine should tremble.

The Lord told us that we would be kept from the hour of trial (Rev 3:10). The hour of trial is the tribulation. I have read all the arguments against this as well and none of them hold any water whatsoever. Even the best arguments against this biblical fact are laughable absurdity. The Lord said that some people will be kept out of the tribulation and that is a fact. Anyone who teaches you that Rev 3:10 is not a promise to be kept out of the tribulation is a thief, a liar, willfully deceived, or something else thats not good.

The Lord gave us promises to comfort us. Who are these people who come to steal our comfort and hope? If the Lord promised us something, who are these people to take it from us? They are thieves, they are liars, they are murderers. That's what they are. If the Lord gave you something and someone else comes to take that away, what would you call them? What happens when the theft of a promise results in death? What would that make the person who stole and their stealing resulted in a death? That makes them a murderer as well.

Here's another interesting fact the Lord pointed out to me last night:

Fact: from the very first day that the church began all the way up through this very day NOT ONE member of the church (those who died "in Christ") has gone through the tribulation. NOT ONE. Let that sink in real deep. Millions, maybe billions of people have died "in Christ" as of today and not one of them had to endure one second of the tribulation. That's an absolute irrefutable fact. Today in these last days before the tribulation starts we are in the midst of a great apostasy which means there are few people in the world who are truly "in Christ" (Matt 7:13-28, 2 Ti 3:2). What that means is that if you were to look at the entire population that is the Church on a pie graph, you would see almost the entire pie except one small sliver that is already dead and gone, and one small sliver of population that is still alive today and "in Christ"

Okay, so what? So..that vast population that is the church that never tasted a second of the tribulation is a witness for the promises of Luke 21:36 and Rev 3:10. Did all those who died in Christ up through today "escape all" of the tribulation? Were they "kept" from it body soul and spirit? Yes they were. And I defy anyone to show me in the bible one shred of evidence that says the church is divided somehow so that this vast majority of the church is somehow exempt from the tribulation but the small sliver of true believers that exist today and destined for it. Anyone who tells you that the church is divided in this way is a satanic liar. Show me in the bible or put the argument away. Its not in the bible so their argument is dead on arrival.

More on point here, what am I trying to say? The pre-tribulation rapture, escape from all, being kept from all the tribulation event is coming sometime in the days ahead. Satan and those who serve him knowingly or unknowingly has tried to steal your promise and steal your hope. The Lord made us a promise and this writer knows for a fact that the Lord 1. keeps His promises and 2. does not lie.

We have all those who have died "in Christ" up through this very day as a witness that the Lord's Word is true. They indeed "escaped all" and have been kept from the tribulation. The promises of the Lord are another powerful witness of the truth of the pre-tribulation rapture of the church. Noah is a witness of the pre-tribulation rapture. Lot is a witness to it. Noah escaped all. Lot escaped all. Every single brother and sister who has died in Christ to this day escaped ALL of the tribulation. That is irrefutable FACT.

Those who argue with the facts laid out in the bible call Jesus a liar, its that simple. I would not want to be them. Why do men choose the doctrine of man over the Word of God? This writer does not know. Pride? Arrogance? Foolishness? All of the above?

The Lord gave us His Word to encourage us and give us hope.

Titus 2:13 while we wait for the blessed hope--the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,

Those who hold the pre-tribulation rapture as biblical fact are doing what we were told to do. We are holding onto the blessed hope by looking for the Lord's return today. The "other tribbers" are looking for Satan, the anti-christ, a peace deal for Israel etc...everything BUT Jesus Christ. What fools they are. Who are the foolish virgins of Matt 25? They are those who were not ready. They were not looking for the Bridegroom when He showed up and they were left behind with the door slammed in their face because they were off looking for something else that they should have already had with them when the Lord showed up.

There is no possible way you can go wrong in your Christian walk by expecting to meet the Lord each and every day of your life. You could die today and meet Him or He could catch you up in the clouds and you meet Him, either way if you are "in Christ" and watching for Him how can you go wrong.

This writer has read the arguments against us extensively and he has yet to read a single argument yet that holds a shred of value against being ready and waiting on the Lord every day. There is no argument against it and if there was it would have to be by a person who is either mentally and spiritually deranged or a satanic disinfo agent.

What the Lord gave me a mental picture of last night was powerful (at least to me it was). It was a circular pie graph showing almost the entire pie already dead in Christ and this small sliver of us who are still alive and remain today. Those in the graph are all the church. The only division is the barrier of death, most are already dead and some are alive today. The rest of the church did not have to enter the tribulation and neither will we. Our God is not a liar. He keeps His promises regardless of what todays apostate preachers and teachers tell you.

Be very encouraged today. Hold onto your hope. There is an escape from all coming for those found worthy of it. There is a blessed hope held out for us today. There is a purpose for the tribulation and that purpose is NOT to try or judge or bring wrath or vengeance on the church. Noah escaped all the tribulation of his day. Lot escaped all the tribulation of his day. The entire body of the church that has died in Christ up through this very day have escaped the coming tribulation. We are part of that church that has escaped all and will escape all of whats about to happen. That is a biblical fact. The Lord made us promises and He cannot lie. Be of good cheer and full of hope. Make every effort to be found worthy of the escape and the Bridegroom who is coming back for us.

These are the things this writer hears the Lord saying today. Keep the faith, stay in the Word. Grace and peace

The Tribulation

The tribulation could very well start this year and run through 2018. This writer is not predicting anything, just watching everything. The Lord told us there would be signs in the sun, moon, stars. He told us of great heavenly signs taking place that would make mens hearts fail them for fear of what is coming on the earth.

In 2014-2015 there are a series of lunar and solar eclipses that fall exactly on the Lord's Feast days. The statistical probability of this happening approaches the impossible unless the Lord had a hand in setting it up. Combine that with the incoming comets, and what is behind those comets (Planet X/Nibiru) and you see what constitutes a possibility of the tribulation starting soon.

This fall feasts days in 2011 plus six months three years puts us right on top of passover in 2014 and what would be the middle of the tribulation if it were to start sometime soon:

The Lunar eclipses break down as follows:

Passover April 15, 2014

Feast of Tabernacles October 8, 2014

Passover April 4, 2015

Feast of Tabernacles September 28, 2015

The two Solar eclipses connected with God’s Holy Days in 2014-2015 occur:

Adar 29/Nisan 1(new year) March 20, 2015

Feast of Trumpets September 13, 2015

Remember, this writer is not predicting anything. We were commanded to watch and pray. We were commanded to be ready when the Lord comes back for us. The Lord set the heavens up like a giant clock. How else could the Mayans build a calendar that is more accurate than modern calendars unless the heavens ran like clockwork? The Mayans built there timetracking tool after the precise workings of the heavens which our Lord created.

The Lord did not tell us there would be sings for his rapture return for us, but there will certainly be signs for the tribulation. The books of Revelation and all the prophets and the gospels are full of tribulation signs. If the rapture occurs before the tribulation and signs of impending tribulation are everywhere what does that tell us? The rapture of the church could be very very close.

Again, this writer is not predicting anything....just watching.

Why would the Vatican build a multimillion dollar telescope in Arizona that they keep super secret? Why would google and MSN and other star gazing software programs blackout places in the sky so we cant see whats there? Why would the US cancel its space program now? Why would anyone name a comet after a movie (Deep Impact) so we all know what they meant when they named it? Why would a doomsday seed vault be built in Norway? Why would so many governments the world over built so many deep underground bunkers and bases? Why would the US and other countries spent huge sum of money to build an observatory on the south pole right exactly on the prime approach of Nibiru (coming in from the south)?

Yes, there are disinfo answers to all those questions. Yes, there are answers for those who want and need to bury their head in the sand to make the truth go away. The simple answer to all of those questions is that something is coming from space that is going to create havoc on this earth. This thing from space is part of the creation and the Lord judges the creation through the creation. This thing coming in from space would satisfy many many of the requirements to fulfill what is written to happen during Rev 6-18. This thing coming in from space makes sense of all those questions asked in the paragraph above. When something coming in from space makes sense of so much much, should we disregard it? No way.

The Lord has had this writer with eyes looking up literally for many months now. I can count on one hand the number of other Christian writers who are doing the same right now.

Elenin and the other comets are just a marker for the arrival of the destroyer following behind. Comets have always been viewed as harbingers of bad things. Read the writings of ancient civilizations or just read the news from Japan around March 11 of this year for the details on why. We are in the alert area on the calendar where things may get very strange and very bad on this earth? No mumbo jumbo is needed to explain why? Our Lord told us that sin comes with a price and the price is death. Death and wrath and vengeance and judgement are what is coming to this earth because men have chosen their own ways and disregarded the only God who is God and is forever praised.

Sin is here in abundance and where is the repentance? If there was massive repentance I might hope that this world would be spared and we might get more time, but there is no repentance. Today what we see is willful arrogance, pride and sin. That can only end in a bad way.

Be watching, be ready. We were not appointed to wrath or judgement or vengeance. Pray that you may be counted worthy of the escape from all that IS coming because the Lord God said it is coming.

grace and peace

August 15th

The 15th is almost over and nothing remotely similar to the Japanese earthquake has taken place. Thank the Lord.

Be watching. Be ready. Next month is Sept and the Feast of Trumpets 2011 will be upon us. If this is the year the Lord takes us home let us be found as worthy servants doing what we were told to do.

Let us also have the patient endurance to wait for our Lord if He should tarry for many years to come.

Be ready to go home with the Lord tonight, and be ready to wait for years. That is what the Lord has commanded us to do. Will it be easy? No way, but thats what we have been called to.

from wiki:
Patience is the state of endurance under difficult circumstances, which can mean persevering in the face of delay or provocation without acting on annoyance anger in a negative way; or exhibiting forbearance when under strain, especially when faced with longer-term difficulties. Patience is the level of endurance one's character can take before negativity. It is also used to refer to the character trait of being steadfast.

grace and peace

August 15

Tomorrow is 8/15. This writer has no idea what if anything begins tomorrow, just be watching and ready.

What is coming on the world is described as a snare or a trap by the Lord:


Luke 21:34And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. 35For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Consider that in May of this year Mr Camping was exposed as a fraud when he guaranteed the rapture this year. What was the net effect of this? Guard and watchfulness and readiness are dropped by most people.

Could this be the year the Lord comes back for us? Yep. Could all the past fraud be a setup to have people not ready for the real thing when it shows up? Yep.

There is no need to predict anything here. The Lord never told us to predict anything before it happens. The Lord's Word has already done all the predicting that needs to be done. He did tell us to be watching and ready. So let us be found doing those things we were told to do when our Master shows up for us.

grace and peace

Update

We haven't even reached Aug 15th yet and its already starting, can you see it?

I have a couple bullet point thoughts from the Lord I need to share with you. I guess you could categorize this as stuff we should be doing, or how we should be thinking. People like to ask "what can I do about the things going on today?" Here's a partial answer:

1. John 1:47

When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, "Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is nothing false." We can strive to be like Nathanael. One of our personal goals in this life is to live a life such that when the Lord looks at us He says "Here is a true Christian, in whom there is nothing false." 2. We can set a second goal to be like Noah and Enoch. These are men who walked with God:

Genesis 6:9

This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked with God.

Genesis 5:24

Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

Note with me that both Noah and Enoch were rapture types AND they both "walked with God." Think theres something there for us? You bet there is. Enoch was literally raptured out. Noah was raptured in type, he was saved by lifting him up high above the earth...above the tribulation and judgement of his day. Enough there, you see the point.

3. His praise on our lips. The Lord recently re-impressed upon this writer the commandment to praise Him. If we don't do it, the rocks will but our Lord will be praised. If there is one thing this writer could ask you to do to radically change your world around and align you powerfully with the Lord, it would be to praise the Lord out loud, with your lips. Do your research in the bible. What does the Lord say about praise? Psalm 34 starts with "I will praise the Lord." What is David saying? He is saying that regardless how he feels, regardless of how the world looks, regardless of his situation, he WILL praise the Lord. Its a decision David made and its a decision we must make as well. We were not asked to praise the Lord, we were commanded to do it. We were, in fact, created for this very purpose, to praise the Lord.

We live in very distressing times. I see people literally in the process of losing their minds around me every day now. Its a gradual process but it is happening. While the world is in the process of losing their minds and descending into the abyss, we should be praising. We should also be praying for all men, that they all may be saved. The Bible tells us that all men wont make it in, but we should pray for all men anyway, especially for all those in positions of power and authority:

1 Timothy 2:1

... I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people.

1 Timothy 2:2

... Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. That's it. Quick recap here of what I hear the Lord instructing me to do, I'm sharing it with you: My top goals in life should be: To walk with God and to be a true Christian in whom nothing is false. To praise the Lord always and to pray for all men. We have no idea how short time really is. If indeed the Lord has directed this writers attention to what is happening in the heavens (3 comets, an asteroid and much more inbound to earth), then perhaps time is very short. How should we be living if time is very short? What should we be doing? What should our goals be with the time that is left? Some of these things have been answered for us today. Comet Honda arrives at earth perigee on Aug 15th. If you have been paying attention you can see that things are anything but normal here on planet earth today. Things are spiraling out of control. Should we fear? No, no and no. We are not of this world, we do not belong to this world. We are aliens and strangers here. We have a kingdom and a Bridegroom waiting in heaven for us. Our Bridegroom has prepared a place for us to come and live with the Father. Be watching, be ready, keep the faith. Praise, pray, worship..offer the sacrifice of praise from your lips to our faithful Creator who is forever praised. Be a person who walks with God. Be a person in whom nothing is false. Our Lord is coming back for a spotless Bride. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a thief and a liar. Not because this writer said it because my words are less than worthless, but because our Lord said it. Gotta go, grace and peace

Earth Changes

Comet Honda will be at earth perigee on Aug 15. Earthquakes are ramping up, volcanic activity is up. Check out the freeware called earthquake 3D. You can see whats happening for yourselves. Honda is inbound, ELE-nin is inbound, comet Levy is inbound, a large asteroid I've forgotten the name of is inbound and possibly the biggest surprise of all is inbound behind all of this. What we can see appears to be a warning for what we cannot see yet.

What happened to Japan on March 11, 2011 was real. It was not the figment of this writer's imagination and the event there occurred precisely on the day that comet 2000 PN9 was at earth perigee. Look around, be watching, be ready.

In case you have not noticed the world economy is not doing so well. Coincidentally? this is at the same time that all this space traffic is inbound to the earth.

What does this all mean? It means we need to be watching and ready for the Bridegroom. "What can I do about any of it?" is a question frequently asked today. You can pray, you can be found watching and ready regardless of what happens (good or bad) in the days ahead.

We have a Lord in heaven who has told us what we should be doing. It would be wise of us as servants to do what we were told to do. Do not count on men to tell you what to do. Read the Master's instructions for yourself...you can find them in the Bible.

Thats all for now. Grace and peace

In The Window

It is now August 2011. On August 15th comet Honda achieves perigee with the earth. Next month "comet ELE-nin" reaches perehelion with the sun, then in October is at its perigee with the earth.

The US "con"gress just signed the countries financial death warrant by piling more debt on top of the already staggering debt this country owes.

So what you ask? The fall feast days of the Lord are the only feasts that have not yet been prophetically fulfilled. Is it possible that this fall we see some prophetic fulfillment of those feast days? It is possible. Am I predicting that anything will happen this fall? NO

We have been tasked by our Master to be watching and ready. Why does this writer confront you with comets and economic doom? We have been tasked to be watching and ready, that is why. What does apparent near term doom have to do with watching and being ready? It has everything to do with it. When we stand face to face with our Master, either because we died out or we raptured out, we will be glad if we were watching and ready before we left the earth.

What happens if the worst happens and horrific natural and supernatural events afflict this earth over the next days and weeks ahead of us? What happens is it will be good for those who are found watching and ready for whatever happens. "What can I do about it" and "why should I worry" are two things this writer often hears. You should worry if you are not right with the Lord and what you can do about it is.....How many times can it be said? Be watching and be ready. Those are not my words, those are the Master's Words.

Real readiness is spiritual readiness. We can be spiritually ready for whatever comes our way in the days ahead. I can stock food and gas and silver and gold till it reaches the ceilings but if the Lord is not guiding my preparedness I do it all in vain. We focus on Him and He shows us where to focus in the world around us. He does this individually, one person at a time. What He has me doing is not necessarily what you should be doing. The caveat to this is what was said initially, we must focus on Him. That is something we all must do first.

Any day now things could get ugly. What's going on around us does not end in September or October or November. What this writer has obtained by a combination of God given senses plus faith, we are entering a time of indefinite length and tremendous potential for destruction.

Again, why does this matter? Re-read Matt 24 and Luke 17 and Genesis 7. The stories of Noah and Lot go how? Noah entered the ark THEN destruction came. Lot left Sodom THEN fire fell on the city. Is that my version of the story? No, that is God Almighty's version of the stories and He tells us that it will be exactly like the days of Noah and Lot sometime in our future.

Will the days of the tribulation be characterized by eating and drinking, planting and building, marrying and giving in marriage? When I read the book of Revelation, after chapter 5 all I see is death, death and more horrific death. The way death arrives varies but the theme is massive death and destruction. "These are the days of vengeance" says the Lord. Wrath, judgement, vengeance are what characterize the post Rev 5 book of Revelation, again, not my words...HIS Word. Go read it for yourself.

We are the Bride of Christ. The Bride is to be ready for the return of the Bridegroom. In fact, that is her primary duty once the Bridegroom goes away to prepare a place for her. Are we the Bride of Christ or not? Yes, undeniably we are. Has the Lord Jesus Christ our Bridegroom gone away to prepare a place for us or not? Yes He has, undeniably and without dispute He has. Should our duty be to expectantly look for the Bridegroom every hour of every day and night or not? Without dispute, undeniably YES it absolutely positively is our duty to do exactly that. Anyone who tells you not to do that should be considered a thief and a liar and a murderer.

Whoa brother D did you say a murderer? Well, what would you call a person who talked you into not being ready to enter the ark when the door was opened? What will characterize this earth after the door is closed (Matt 25, Rev 3, Rev 4)? Death, wrath, judgement, vengeance will be upon the earth. What will happen to believers who do not take the mark? They will be slaughtered. And what would that make people who talked others into missing the escape? It will make them murderers.

Fact: Noah escaped the flood of his day. Argue that.

Fact: Lot escaped the fiery destruction of Sodom. Argue that.

Fact: Another escape is coming, an escape from all. Just as it was in the days of Noah and Lot. The Lords own Words, not mine...argue that.

In Noah's day, the flood was a worldwide destruction. Noah was lifted high above the earth, over and above the destruction of his day. Only the blind and the willfully disobedient could miss the message. People today willfully ignore the command to pray that they may be counted worthy to escape all that is about to happen. They willfully disobey this because some men somewhere have convinced them that the words of men hold more power than the Word of God. So they do not believe the Lord Jesus Christ when He tells us that there will be an escape from ALL that is about to happen. Are there idle Words in the bible that the Lord should use the Word ALL when He didn't mean all?

There was a door open for Noah in Genesis 7. There is a door opened for the wise virgins in Matt 25. There is a door opened for the Philadelphian church in Rev 3. There is a door open in heaven in Rev 4. The Lord shut the door in Gen 7. The Lord shut the door in Matt 25. And what does He tell those who were not ready when the door was opened? That is something you and I NEVER want to hear.

These are the days of warning. We have all been warned. What if nothing unusual happens in August, or Sept or Oct, or Nov, or Dec 2011? You were watching and you were ready in obedience to the command given to all of us by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Each and every time something monumentally bad happens in this world we hear the same tired words from this world..."who could have known?" And each and every time when we look around we can see that a few small voices did warn them of what happened. The bible is a book of many things, but a major theme throughout all of the prophetic writings are a warning..to us.

I have been warned. You have been warned. Let us enjoy the days of grace that have been afforded us thus far in a time and age that is as wicked and sinful as any that has ever plagued this earth. Days of judgement and wrath and vengeance are coming. Our Lord has given us a simple command. Be watching. Be ready.

These are the things this writer hears the Lord saying today. May He have mercy on us all.

grace and peace
