Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
Isaiah 54:17 no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me,” declares the LORD.
2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
First that poem was beautiful and I will be saving it. I have been in Christ 39 years. I was born again at the end of reading The Late Great Planet Earth by Hal Lindsey. I’ve since grown past that book’s teachings but I credit Hal with my salvation message sticking That time for life.
The reason for my wondering is Melissa Red Pill. I just love her and the message of hope and Julie Green too. When I look over the growth and changes in my beliefs as I matured in Christ from Pretrib to post trib, heavy on law and heavy on Grace, the two seed lines, all these teachings presented over the 40 years.
Now I’m a Kingdom Christian expecting the 1000 years of peace. Feels like a natural progression feels good in my soul but then the doubt. Am I deceived? Should I expect the kingdom of God or antichrist? Now don’t think I am not advanced and haven’t studied prophecy I have but am I correct in my interpretation!?
What if the sabbath keepers are right? What about the Hebrew roots? So much going on in The church world.
I am no expert always learning as we should all be. Revelation 3:10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth. this give me hope to believe that pre tribulation is how it will go, but whether I am right or wrong or whether you are or anyone for that matter, what does matter that remember these things; James 2:14-26 Faith Without Works Is Dead What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
Matthew 7:16 “Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?”
Revelation 3:15-17 I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! 16 So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. 17 You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked.
Revelation 2:10 Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown.
Mark 9:35 Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”
I would only add the armor of God to this list of encouraging Words.
