The pharisees accused Jesus of casting out devil's by Beelzebub. The wisdom Jesus gave us from that accusation was that if it was true then satans kingdom would fall. For Satan to cast out devils would make his kingdom weaker not stronger, therefore it's not logical or feasible that the accusation was true. He went on to say a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.
So let's do the same thing in our current situation, use logic and discernment based of biblical wisdom given to us all long ago.
Satan is the ruler of this world. He offered all the kingdoms to Jesus, if He would only bow to him. Jesus didn't refute that claim, He didn't tell Satan he didn't have that power or authority.
So everyone in power of this world serve in Satan's kingdom/world here on earth. Now with everything we have learned the last several years is that all the wins we thought the good guys got were nothing more than a lie. The enemy had his people on both sides of the war. Which ensured that he would determine the winner and ultimately manipulate the circumstances to benefit his continued enslavement of mankind.
Now here we find ourselves entrenched in yet another major war, one might say the biggest one yet. If this is not the final battle that our Bible tells about, then it's just another war that is rigged. Satan will choose the outcome that serves him and his agenda, as has always been the case.
So I say all of this to say this. Jesus' words ring just as true today as they did then. Satan's kingdom cannot stand if it is divided against itself. Which is why I firmly believe that we are being manipulated by the enemy himself. Because he has his people in place on both sides of this war. Sure there's plenty to look at and think there's a entity fighting on our behalf. But it doesn't pass the smell test. It doesn't line up biblically.
Now I know practically everyone on here won't agree with my assessment of the situation. That's fine, it's what makes this country so great. We speak freely and let free men choose their position on the matter.
Yes I know God is in control and His will is sovereign. But His word does not speak of a world wide revival. He tells us the only time Satan and his kingdom is defeated is when His anointed Son comes back to defeat Satan once and for all. Until then, Satan is calling the shots as far these kingdoms go.
So I would caution you brothers and sisters to pray without ceasing. Seek God's wisdom on this matter. For I feel it is a salvation issue. To be deceived and misled into following the enemy and serve him. How could it not be a salvation issue? Sure people's intentions are righteous and true. But many have been led astray by good intentions.
I strongly believe that what God is telling His people to "come out of her my people." Not only the false traditions and doctrines of men, but the whole pagan system altogether. This manipulation of the mind and spirit is leading people into false idolatry worship. I'd go so far as to say worshipping the beast. We know what happens to those who worship the beast.
Most will mock and scoff at yet another warning from a simple servant of The Most High. So be it, it is written. If a man truly fears God Almighty then he will give heed to these words and give serious thought and at least take it in prayer to our Father. If your first reaction after reading this is to quickly comment to defend your position against mine. I'd urge you to pause, to not let pride speak for you. If after some thought, consideration and hopefully some prayer you feel led to show me the error of my way, then by all means have at it.
God Bless you brother/sister, may our Father guide you toward the straight and narrow path. Remember there be but few that find it.
You make some excellent points here, and I've also been feeling like most avenues or choices are tainted in one way or another - some just clearer and more obvious than others. AND I've found myself just naturally praying more and more. If I wake up in the night, I say the Lord's prayer before going back to sleep. When I'm alone, I'm literally talking to God like every day conversation. So, I do feel what you're saying just from the standpoint of current intuition and how my routines are innately being affected. And whether or not someone agrees w/you isn't the main point here in my view. It's more about REALLY getting nitty-gritty w/your personal relationship w/God - recognizing Jesus as your saviour if you haven't already, praying for discernment before acting, not allowing hateful thoughts or feelings to rule decision making, etc.
Thanks for posting this. If nothing else, what a great reminder to take everything to the Father.
That sounds a lot like “Pray unceasingly” spoke of in the Bible. Nice! I get frustrated and angry until I remember who is really in charge.
Read the way of the pilgram,it's a classic on how to pray without ceasing.
I agree with your post fully. As much as I want a reprieve from the atrocities of this administration, the reality is no matter who is in power, until the time comes that our Lord returns, things are going to continue to lead to the rising of the Anti-Christ.
You have stated very well the situation as I see it also. Whether you are right or wrong...people would do well to prayerfully consider your words and to seek the truth of the times we are living in. The funny thing about deception is that people do not realize they are being deceived and that's why deception is so dangerous.
God bless you Godly Patriot for speaking what is on your heart. I know you do it to try to open people's eyes...to prepare us for what lies ahead. I hope that your words will get people to think logically and realistically. The left as well as the right is capable of manipulation and deceit and we need to recognize that satan does own this world for the moment...but the ultimate victory is God's and the real issue for us is one of our standing before God and whether or not we are saved...not who we follow or support here on earth....
God bless you and yours richly and thank you for your honesty and boldness...I actually am saving this...it is so well expressed...I want to share it...thank you...
When I talk to my sister about all the things going on, I can get a bit worked up. Then we’ll say, Oh well.…God is in control! It sure takes the worry away.😀
Very well said fren.
“Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner.” Lather, rinse, repeat, endlessly.
My testimony: Started getting “hints” (at age 58) Christ was real after all. Saw some compelling info on the Shroud of Turin. Had an “oh shit it’s all true” moment. Okay, but what to do? Got another “hint” about “the Jesus prayer”. Started praying it as often as possible, striving for constant prayer. Everything changed. Read John and Acts with open heart and mind. Converted from atheist to Orthodox. Friends were shocked and dismayed. Who needs ‘em?
It’s true. I’ve become one of those annoying religious fanatics nobody likes to talk to because everything is about Him. It’s been all good. I even like going to church now.
Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner. Constant prayer.
There has not been any Christian generation in the past 2000 years who did not think they were witnessing the end of times immediately preceding the 2nd coming. What do you think Bible clutchers said from the pulpit during the first World War? What do you think they said during the second? There has never been a time since this book was written that people did not take the symbols and characters from the book of Revelation and assign political figures of their day to them. Every generation this happens and then the end is not yet and it happens all over again.
Death can come to any of us at any time, that's why it's important to have your spiritual affairs in order. Not because you're so intent on surviving the end of the world or qualifying for the rapture.
I see a lot of "God wins" written all over the place. Really. What does that mean? When has God ever won? If this planet has been ruled by Satan for the past 6000 years then when, tell me, has God ever won? I'll tell you. He wins every time someone realizes that whatever is going on in the world around him is irrelevant when it comes to their own happiness. Even in the midst of war and calamity, destruction and death, all that REALLY matters is that you hold love in your heart for yourself and your fellow man.
As for the macro, which is why we are all here--we all love the macro story--Revelation is the not the book I look to for inspiration. I look to Habbakuk 1 and 2.
And if there's anything I've learned from reading scripture and living life it's that God is NOT in control. Not that he couldn't be if he wanted to be, but he's not. He's clearly given human beings their agency and they can do as they will and only others exercising their faith and agency can do anything about that. I don't care if the Great Awakening is spoken of in the Bible or not. It's a dream I believe in. And it's a dream that is spreading. I do believe that Christ will crush the kingdom of the devil someday but not by making some grand appearance in the sky and asserting his almighty will and authority on the world, but his SPIRIT will do the crushing. The SPIRIT of Christ is spreading. The world has been covered for so long in darkness and faithlessness, but now in our age we finally have the tools at our disposal to turn the tide and win the war. We have forums like these. We have forums like Twitter. Faith comes by hearing the truth, and now the truth has larger forums than at any time in world history and the tide is turning. Good ideas spread very quickly nowadays. Faith is the moving power in the world. Inasmuch as men have love and faith and a medium to share that with others the world has a chance.
I choose to believe in that chance. You can mutter on about the Beast as much as you want. I've read your posts before. The Bible is your God. You think God is your God and the Bible is his word but really, the Bible is your God. You're a scribe. Not a prophet. I know the difference. You've spread about enough faithlessness on this site in the name of the Bible for me. The Bible is a helpful tool and valuable guide but it's not God. It's not the source. Your addiction to it fills you with dread. But GOD does not give us the spirit of fear. Maybe put the book down and start getting your inspiration where the men who wrote it got theirs. The Revelation game is tired.
The fact that you feel the need to comment on my post which you clearly disagree with on multiple occasions shows exactly what your about.
You feel a sense of arrogance to be the one who needs to express his opinion. When it's abundantly clear you only bring contention.
I try to do the will of my Father in heaven by calling people to repentance, to not blindly follow the false light. To study the only thing God has given us for instruction aside from His Holy Spirit, which is His word.
I'm just one of the very few who go against the grain in here. I think that's what sets you off with the work I'm doing. I know if I'm right it shakes up so much of your belief system.
I don't operate out of fear. My fear is for the lost and the unsuspecting Christian who may fall in the snare of the enemy. I'm completely secure in my walk, as much as I can be I guess.
But I tell you what, how about you report me to the moderator. See about getting me banned. I'd be more than fine with being persecuted for simply trying to do the business of the kingdom.
There's scripture that talks about those who aren't gathering are scattering. So you seem to be prone to throwing shade on a servant of Jesus. So if your fine with scattering the flock by sowing discord amongst the brethren then have at it. I've told you before, your words testify against you. Good day and God bless.
I've yet to report you and see no need to do so. Your opinion is well within the bounds of appropriate on this site as I see it. I have always said that I think your intentions are pure. I just think your conclusions are wrong. And you feign an authority you clearly do not possess. You are a scribe. The scriptures should be your starting point, not your guidebook. They should inspire you to commune directly with God the way the prophets in the book have done. Instead you idolize their words and you squeeze square objects into round holes and do so with a holier than thou pride matched in the scriptures only by the Scribes and Pharisees I compared you to. You denounce anything that does not sound like what you've read or how you've interpreted it. You lack any new wisdom, any new insight, any new revelation because you have not established that connection between yourself and the source. You only parrot what the Bible says and mimic its way of speaking, I imagine because it gives you a sense of purpose.
Well I'm telling you this: that which does not inspire faith is not of God. That which tears down the faith you see growing in this community, the light that is spreading, the spirit that is growing as a result of the revelations that have come to bear in this age and the momentum that we are creating is not born of faith but of vanity. Your obsession with the book of Revelation is not new, and it's not impressive.
Perhaps my words do testify against me, but at least my words are mine.
Some wisdom from Jesus:
Luke 21:34-36
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. Not a blink, a twinkle.
Hear ye! Psalm 20:7-9 (NASB) Some boast in chariots and some in horses, But we will boast in the name of the LORD, our God. They have bowed down and fallen, But we have risen and stood upright. Save, O LORD; May the King answer us in the day we call.
How do we know we are in that frame of time? Some think the tribulations have already happened and we are in the 'little season'
Just food for thought.
From my perspective, we are very early in the tribulation or we are in the fast lead up to beginning the tribulation.
Why would science only in the last couple years come to realize and explain the celestial processes and events that are now anticipated to occur sometime within the next couples decades (plasma universe theory, galactic current sheet, 12000 year cycle and 6000 year half cycle, solar micronova, substantial measured planetary changes in every planet from Pluto to Venus in recent years, confirmation of increased dusty plasma in the solar system, archeological and geological evidence of a 12000 year cycle, earth's magnetic field and it's now accelerated decline in strength and the recent excursion from the poles geographically (since the Carrington event)) .
These celestial events and the catastrophe it will mean for earth line up beautifully with the trumpets, the scrolls, and the bowl judgements from the perspective of what will happen in the heavens from the earth's view. The reason science must discover, identify, describe, and show the world the mechanism of celestial events listed in Revelation is because the great deception cannot succeed worldwide if the Biblical account plays out in the sky and there is no alternate explanation to compete or discount the Truth given in the Bible. Therefore Satan will alert humanity to the mechanisms that cause the celestial events so it is easy for humanity to ignore the call to repentance when these things occur.
Additionally all things necessary for humanity to exist in a world like what the Bible describes as the Days of Noah are happening before us now. The world as a whole is lurching toward hedonism, the pagan religions of ancient times, long relegated to secret practice and following and those told to us in mythology are being reborn in slightly rebranded but recognizable (to one who studied history and symbolism) form. The nation's are setting up (perhaps even now they are in place) to generate the world dynamic that results in the Biblical wars and battles described.
Be vigilant fellow Christians. Keep oil in your lamp that you are ready. The journey will be marked with suffering and sorrow and hardship just as our Savior Christ Jesus demonstrated. Without the Holy Spirit whom Jesus sent, our feet will stumble and our hearts will fail on this journey.
