*SIGN OF THE TIMES: FALLING AWAY IN PARIS

 

FALLING AWAY IN PARIS

One of the great prophecies of things to happen as we near the end of this age is the falling away from God that takes place (2 Thessalonians 2:3).  I write about that falling away all the time because it is apparent in so many places.

Well, the opening of the Olympics should now demonstrate to even the least discerning of believers that the world is deep into falling away from God.  That the organizers and planners of the Olympics and the leaders of France would think it wise to have drag queens hold a mock version of the last supper should shake the very core of any believer.  What does this say?  That there are large numbers of leaders in the world – in this case in the Olympics and in France – that think nothing of shoving their thumb in the face of God.

If I had gone to Paris to attend the Olympics I would be thinking seriously of getting out of there; I would be wondering just how much longer the almighty would let that city endure, or at the very least those involved in that satanic charade called the opening ceremonies.

It is a dreadfully sad time and state we live in on earth today.  Our great joy of course is our knowledge that the return of our Lord is just moments away.  How many we do not know, and yes God surely has unbelievable patience.  Would you in God’s place have watched that drag queen version of the last supper peacefully?  Would you not perhaps have just put your powerful thumb down on those involved and squashed them like the bugs they are?

Well, that is the difference between you and me and God.  He still operates by his timetable and his patience and plan.

But obviously this part of God’s timetable, the time we are living in, is drawing to a close.  And the Lord is coming soon. 

Don’t’ let them go into the night, the Lord has told me.  I’m trying, Lord.  Wake them up, Father!  Wake them up.  Only you can draw them to Jesus!  Wake them up.

What a difficult time we live in!  Even so, never stop doing all you can to help the Father draw others to Jesus.  Ask the Holy Spirit for guidance.  But never forget, we have Jesus’ own words that it is only a few who find it, the way, the real way.  Still we never quit trying.

WATCHMAN WARNING: STAY ALERT

 

 
Not an easy time or pleasant time to be alive.  Not at all.
 
For just a few paragraphs to set the stage, let’s look at this world around us.  I focus here on the US although much similarly could be said of course about other nations.  In the US so many in the national government as well as in other positions of leadership seem to be acting in such ungodly ways.  Lies pervade their daily public remarks as well as so often the remarks of many of the media that are supposed to inform the public and remain impartial.
 
This is a day of evil like none we living now have ever seen.  I know there have been pockets of untold evil in the past, and moments of evil horror such as under the Nazis in WWII and elsewhere.  But this is a general evil that permeates the lifestyles and behaviors of so many people.  Large numbers obviously do not know they are themselves not telling the truth, or they just don’t care. 
 
Lost, confused people listen to the media and the government, and being ungodly themselves they are led astray.  So we get all the wild, virulent people saying things you know are not true.  But they obviously think they are.
 
This recent assassination attempt on former President Trump has shocked many even in the mainstream community.  Let’s be honest.  Most people living have not lived as adults when there has been such a thing happen in America. 
 
People like me who have lived quite a long time remember the ultimate horror of such a happening when the leader of the country was indeed killed.  The murder of President Kennedy was a horror that still has impact.  And all those living then gradually realized – or at least most did – that we were actually not being told the truth about what had happened.  Turned out more than just the shooter were involved.  The full disclosure of the investigation has not even now been released to the public, 61 years after the fact.  And thus began in full view the time of the national government deciding what is best for the people to know and what is not.  And thus also the beginning of many not trusting the government, a lack of trust that has grown up to today when people do not trust the federal security agencies, do not believe we will be told the truth in situations, do not believe many of the leaders.
 
I write all this as background leading up to a big statement.  And this is it.
 
People, dear people, please pay attention.  The times will only get worse on earth.  We are in the very last days of this human period.  The Lord will come any moment, and I surely hope it is indeed any moment, like today for example.  The Father obviously is still drawing others to Jesus.   We know from scripture how hard it all gets as the days go by, but we believers do know that at some moment we will be taken from this confused, dark world society as the final period of true horror on earth ensues.
 
The antichrist has not yet been revealed, although surely he is waiting in the wings.  When the true believers in Jesus are taken away, he no longer has serious human opposition to his efforts to build the one-world government and the Tribulation will go forward.  Already the UN and the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization are working towards that.
 
Remember always where the truth lies.  It lies in God, in Jesus, in the Holy Spirit, in the Bible.  Pray.  Seek to hear more always.  Live and operate in the guidance of the Holy Spirit.  Use the gifts of the Spirit, especially the gift of discernment, to survive on earth.  The Holy Spirit guides us in all truth.  He tells us of things to come.  He reminds us of things Jesus has said to us.  Remember?
 
There are large numbers of deceived, even deluded people out there, godless people whom the devil readily leads astray.  Living in the midst of all this requires wisdom on our parts and absolute attention to God’s guidance.  His words and his truths are absolute.  They are real and they work.  Remember again Jesus said his believers can do the same things he did, even greater.  Well, are you doing them?  Are you trying to do them?  Are you using God’s tools of protection?  Healing the sick?  Casting out demons?
 
I admit this is an unpleasant time.  I admit I have great difficulty looking ever at reports of what is happening on earth.  But we do need to know what is happening around us surely, so we should try to stay up to date – but just for short periods.  Don’t sit still and blindly listen and watch news programs for hours.  If you do be sure to in Jesus’ name order away from you all evil spirits.
 
You see so many of these people on television in press conferences uttering gobbledygook, lies, falsehoods, nonsense, vitriol, and you see at times they actually believe what they say.  Your heart hurts for them.  They are lost.  They don’t know the truth.  They have no foundation in truth.
 
Jesus has told me so many things about his coming, and I have shared many of them with you.  “Don’t let them go into the night” is one of his statements to me. “When I come things will be different,” is another.  Thank God for that, I say.  And here are just a few more:
 
“Tell them I am coming soon.  My people have their eyes on me.  My people tell the truth.”
 
“It will be like a beacon, like a dagger, a moment, suddenly, no light surprise.”
 
“Tell them I love them.
 
  Tell them to stay focused.
 
  Tell them I am coming soon.
 
  Tell them not to be misled.”
 
Live and operate in the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Pray often and in the Spirit.  Develop your spiritual senses that you will be more discerning in all situations.  And WATCH! as the Lord says.  Be ready for his return.  Stay in the right relationship with him.  Don’t get lost in this lost world in which we all are living now.
 
Remember, our physical bodies may be living in this lost world but we believers – our very selves, our spirits – have somehow been lifted up and even now are sitting with Jesus in Heaven.  Paul wrote about that in Ephesians.  Believers know Jesus.  Believers have Jesus as their Lord.  They are citizens of the Kingdom of God.  They will soon be getting a new glorious body and will be spending eternity in that Kingdom.
 
Hang in there.  He is coming soon.

SIGN OF THE TIMES: HOW DO I GET HOME?

 

Home.
 
Well, what is home?  The house where you grew up?  The apartment?  Lots of people have moved so often there is no real such home like that.
 
Besides, that is just a building.   A place.
 
What is home – It’s where you belong.  It’s a place of peace, of joy.  A place you know you were always supposed to be.  According to Robert Frost, it is a place that, when you go there, they have to take you in.
 
There is only one true home for all humans, one real home.  And that is with the Creator – with God the Father, with Jesus.  Home.
 
But the only people who get to go to that home are believers in Jesus.  Those who have been born anew and have Jesus as their Lord.
 
All the others?  There is a place they are heading, but it is not the home I just described.  Nope.  Unless they change what they are doing, repent, and ask Jesus to be their Lord, they are heading to their ultimate lasting place, the Lake of Fire.  More popularly known as Hell.  There they will be with like-minded people and with the devil, the antichrist, and the false prophet for eternity.
 
Right now the overwhelming majority of people on earth are headed for that terrible eternal place.  Things can always change of course.  The only reason Jesus has not yet come no doubt is because the Father is still working to draw people to Jesus, to salvation.  But I haven’t seen any great signs there will be a huge number of the population suddenly shifting their fundamental behavior and beliefs and becoming true born again believers in Jesus.  Still, I pray that would happen.  We certainly work to tell people who Jesus is and that he is coming soon.  And huge numbers around the world have come to our short videos on this subject.  We will continue to work for more and more to be in the Kingdom, to help God the Father in his drawing them, to be a battle ax for an end time revival as the Lord has called us.
 
Most people live in a stupor.  Most don’t realize to be honest that God is real, Jesus is real, the Holy Spirit is real, the Bible is true, the devil is real, angels are real, demons are real, divine healings and miracles are real too and happen now in our day.  That is how I often started healing services – walking out and saying something like that. 
 
It is all about faith and belief in Jesus.  He is the only way to God.  Most people don’t have that.  Or they have some kind of intellectual faith in the wrong thing, like these terrible false religions like Islam or other things.  Or they perhaps do go so far as to attend a church on Sunday and maybe they even know some Jesus stories, but they never have come to grips with the truth that Jesus is real and alive right now, that miracles happen right now, that they can live in the presence of God right now and be guided by God right now.  They have never been born anew and do not have Jesus truly as the Lord of their lives.  And so they are lost too.
 
When the Lord collects his true believers very soon, that will be an earth-shaking, gut-wrenching moment to all left on earth, a moment like nothing ever before.  No doubt the lost governments will try to cover this up with some type of explanation, such as UFO’s taking the people away.  But whatever the explanation offered and how ever many are taken away, it will be undeniable that many people – including the most moral in society – have been taken away.  The ensuing period will be terrible.  Those who are left behind but do know some of the Jesus stories and maybe have a Bible will be the best off, for they should be able to realize what has happened.  And they should be doing their best to repent, to receive Jesus as their Lord, to get into the Kingdom.  Those hundreds of millions on earth in the false religions will have to rely on information they can find on the Internet, in bookstores, in church buildings, in homes of departed believers...if they even know what to look for.  Maybe they can watch our videos for a while and read our writings as long as they are posted, and maybe they can do that for many other ministries.
 
Going home.  I am ready to go home.  The believers I talk to are ready to go home.  They want to see Jesus come now.  They know that only God can lead people to Jesus, that they can do all they can to help in that, but that in the end he is the one who leads.  And each person seriously must ask Jesus to be their Lord.
 
Although believers hope and prefer their lost friends and family come to have Jesus as their Lord now, they do know these lost people will have a second chance to come to Jesus during the Tribulation Period, even though that time will be horrible.  Remember, John the disciple saw huge numbers of “Tribulation saints” in heaven in Revelation.
 
Home.  Believers are just about there.  Make sure as Jesus advised that you watch!  And that you pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man (See Luke 21:36).  Stay in the right relationship with Jesus!  Don’t allow yourself to drift away, to get so caught up in all the angst and turmoil and evil of this rapidly falling world in which you currently live.
 
Home is not far away.
