I woke up (as usual🙄🤦♀️) about two hours or so after I fell asleep. I got up and walked to my desk, and checked my phone; I noticed that there would be thunderstorms coming my way soon (around 2am). I tried to lay back down again, but because of what happened to the REAL President, Donald J. Trump, I could not help but vent to Abba for some time about it.
I know that “perilous times will come” (2 Tim. 3:1)–they are already here, along with the lawlessness that is abounding (Matt. 24:12). All the evil that we who CAN see what truly is going on, is just part of the pieces of the puzzle, that will eventually bring the Anti-Christ onto the world stage, to take over for SEVEN years (Dan. 9:27), bringing on the Tribulation.
What some people, even Christians, do not realize is–the FIRST SEAL OF JUDGMENT IS THE ANTICHRIST.
I am not here to mention anything about the Rapture or how or when it will happen (the Lord Jesus promised us He would take us Home with Him when it was time -Jn. 14:2-3- once He was done “preparing a place” for us), for no one knows that Day or Hour (Matt. 24:36)–just that it WILL eventually HAPPEN.
What I DO want to point out to you, especially to those who DO NOT BELIEVE, is that all who reject Jesus NOW, in 2023, and do NOT humble themselves and REPENT by the Time the LORD allows this FIRST SEAL OF THE 21 JUDGMENTS to be OPENED by the LORD JESUS CHRIST (the Lamb that was slain (Rev. 6:1-2)–those people, who are among our loved ones, friends, other family members, co-workers, etc., WILL BE DECEIVED INTO THINKING that this Anti-Christ IS the one who will save them from the world’s increasing economy and financial problems, social and political issues, etc.
They will end up BELIEVING A LIE–as they do now, by the very DEMONS who have helped them REFUSE and REJECT the Lord Jesus Christ into their lives–that this ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT LEADER–the ANTICHRIST–is going to solve ALL their problems.
🙏I stayed up and prayed for the next couple of hours, rebuking the enemies of our souls, asking the LORD to reveal Himself more to those who are BLIND and DEAF to Him, pleading with Him to do whatever it takes, to take their cold, stony hearts, and turn them into hearts of flesh (Jeremiah 36:26), so that they could SEE and UNDERSTAND that He LOVES them, and wants a relationship with THEM, and that they would finally accept the Lord Jesus into their lives, and ESCAPE the COMING JUDGMENTS.
🙏I ask YOU, dearly beloved, to do the same for your family and friends. Take out even an hour before you go to bed (or do as I did, if you wake up in the middle of the night), and PRAY mighty spiritual warfare prayers to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, asking the Godhead to allow those who still reject Him, to see Him in a new light, taking away the scales from their eyes, and unstopping their deaf ears to His Word, so that they may finally have a chance of eternal Life in and with Christ, for all Eternity.
The LORD is patient, but He WILL finish what He started several millennia ago. And the Time for the End is SOONER than we think.
Does the LORD hear us in our day of trouble? He sure does. Lately, this world hasn’t had a day or two of trouble–it is a DAILY thing now, as we approach the End of Days.
I know most people do not want to hear about that, even those who profess Christ. They want to continue on with their daily lives, doing what they want, how they want, and when they want.
But we all cannot ignore the obvious for much longer–it is evident to me and many others who are “sober and watchful unto prayer”, that the time that the Lord Jesus spoke about, and the prophets warned us about-even the Apostle John in his writing of the Book of Revelation-that there would come a day when THE Day of trouble–the Day of the LORD–would happen.
It IS approaching, and I suspect those of us who are paying attention, SEE and HEAR the signs and warnings of all that is going on around us.
I can only hope that many more will wake up to the reality that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have to FINISH what they started several millennia ago.
There was to be a generation of people who would experience such things. There was the generation in Noah’s day to experience the worldwide Flood; then the generation in Moses’ day to experience all the 10 plagues and the crossing of the Red Sea, and Moses coming down from the Mount with the 10 commandments.
There was a generation who witnessed the birth of the Messiah, and also in that generation of people, became some of His disciples and followers (and also His mother and foster father!). They saw and experience many miracles, and walked with the Image of the Invisible God for 33 years, until He was crucified for all of our sins, died, and then was resurrected, defeating Death and Hell in the process, making a way for all of us to have that opportunity to return to the Father–the LORD of Spirits.
There was a generation of believers for many centuries, starting with the first disciples, that became martyrs of the Faith, because they would not deny Christ. They longed for the Day that Christ would return and deliver them out of the evil they were witnessing more and more. But all of that was just the beginning of the walk of Faith with Christ and His Word. More was to be fulfilled, but many years hence.
NOW there is a generation, who after 2000+ years after the resurrection of Christ, that has seen MANY changes in this world, ESPECIALLY in the last 150 years or so. Rapid changes in technology, finances, society, behaviors, faith, families, etc.
Dare I say that since the 1960’s, there has been much more work in the demonic realm than anyone has seen in a long time. I do believe that we may just be that generation to see and experience much more supernatural events than we have ever bargined for.
That’s because the demons and fallen angels themselves know, that That Day is NEAR. And they are getting bolder and acting out in the physical realm more than ever before. They know their end is near, and do not care how many humans they take with them to the eternal fires. The more humans they can trick and deceive into falling away from the faith, or staying away from The Lord altogether and continue to deny Him, the more they get to spite the LORD God for casting them down and sentencing them to an eternal death. Billions already have entered into perdition…
The Day of the LORD approaches. We must be ready for it–mentally, emotionally, physically, and most of all–spiritually. One day of trouble in a person’s life is nothing these days. The world is FULL of trouble, because it has forsaken the LORD God, and He is about to remind them very SOON, Who rules and reigns in Heaven, on Earth, and below the Earth. He will finally take back ALL that is His, including His children, and Israel, which is His inheritance. Anyone who is not of the Lord’s will suffer unimaginably with the 21 Judgments that are to come.
Be watchful unto prayer, and stay sober minded, beloved. Keep your sword (Bible) with you at all times, reminding all of That Day that is approaching, and quicker than ever before.
As I am going through the “Lauds” section of prayer today, I was reading this and it sounds just like mankind of today (and pretty much of what Psalm 14:1 echos as well).
It is amazing how BLIND humans are, even those who profess to know God and His Son (Luke 7:21) ; how much evil we allow into our lives, and just ignore it, or think those little vices and sins mean nothing to the LORD…
If sin was not an issue to the LORD God, mankind can live whatever way he would please to, and the LORD would not convict and sentence man to an eternal damnation. Why also then, would He have sent His Son Jesus (Yeshua), to the Earth, taken away from the eternal glory He already had with His Father from the Beginning (Jn. 1:1-4, 14; Colossians 1:13-20) only to be disrespected, rejected, and treated like dirt, even being MURDERED by mankind, if sin wasn’t something that stood in the way of having a relationship with the LORD Most High?
Even the angels who sinned, would have “gotten away” with all of what they have done–Lucifer (Is. 14:12), Samjaza, Artaqifa, Armen, Kokabel, Turael, Azazel, and all the others who rebelled against the Most High (see 1Enoch Chapters 6-8; 15; 66 and also Gen. 3 and 6:1-5), and did abominable acts like deceiving and lying to Adam and Eve, but also procreating with human women, making to themselves offspring who end up being even worse than they were, being half-breeds and beasts who some still now roam the earth (2 Peter 2:4; Jude 1:6); to get themselves not only removed from the Divine Council (Ps. 82:1; Deut. 32:8-9), but forever sentenced to the eternal flames come the Time of Judgment (Ps. 82:6-7; Rev. 20:10-15.
The LORD GOD has a way of allowing man the gift of “free will”–to CHOOSE who he will serve–either those evil ones who have “gifted” to mankind things those rebellious sons of God never should have shared with them, in exchange for their souls, making war, spilling blood, doing more abominable acts than ever before-only to lead to both the angels and the humans’ entrance into the eternal fires– OR–
Choosing to humble themselves before Him, repenting of their sins and transgressions, accepting the free GIFT of ETERNAL LIFE through His Son Yeshua HaMaschiach, Who suffered, died and rose again, in fulfillment of the Scriptures, in order THAT mankind would have a way back to the Father, and a spiritual REBIRTH (Jn. 3:3, 5, 7) that was lost at the Fall of mankind.
WHICH one will YOU choose?
Will you be like those sons of God who had EVERYTHING — they not only were created like we were, but SAW the Most High, LIVED in GLORY with Him, felt the LOVE and JOY of being with the Triune Godhead–and then gave it all up, and for what? To SIN, only to end up in the eternal flames??🔥🔥🔥🔥
WE have that opportunity to live in ETERNAL GLORY with the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, IF we choose wisely to TRUST and OBEY in His WORD–ALL of it, even if we do not understand it al right now. ALL He wants from us, is to TRUST and OBEY, and LIVE out the life He chose for each one of us.
🙏I pray that you think long and hard on this, because SOON, and VERY soon, That Day WILL come, when the LORD God will have to FINISH what He started here (Is. 24:21-22; Jer. 30:7-8; 46:10; Ez. 30:3-4; Joel 1:15; 3:12-14; Zephaniah 3: 11-13; Rom. 2:16; Matt. 7:22-23; 24:30-31; Jn. 12:48; Rev. 20:8-9). PLEASE do not give in to the desires of the flesh, the world, and the lies that the angels who sinned, and their offspring–the demons–deceive the whole world with!! You WILL end up in the same fires as they, for they ALSO will be judged(2Pet.2:4)!!
CHOOSE LIFE, by choosing to be a child of the ✡MOST HIGH GOD-Adonai Elohim Tz’vaot, and ✝YESHUA, His Son, and by accepting Him into your life, you will then have 🕊RUACH HaKODESH-the HOLY SPIRIT–🔥📖LIVE within you, leading and guiding you TO eternal life, as long as you TRUST Him with ALL your heart, and lean NOT to your OWN understanding (Prov. 3:5-6), as those rebellious sons of the Most High did, and transgressed before the LORD God, and lost all their positions in glory with Him, and are sentenced to an eternal Hellfire.
I put the Hebrew, Greek, and Latin here along with the English, so that you can clearly see it is written in the ancient languages. I use Blue Letter Bible to study these languages, and you would do well to utilize them or Logos for your Bible and ancient biblical language word studies.
📖Psalm 31:1 Susúrrat iníquitas ad ímpium in médio cordis eius;* non est timor Dei ante óculos eius.
I put two pics here of Scriptures that have been mentioned, so that you can read and hopefully retain in your heart, what they say.
It is evident of the longer one, that THIS generation (which I am pretty sure is the last; if we are not, then the LORD will spare one more time at least, to move mankind forward into Time, until “the appointed Time” of the End) and the way it has been in the last few years, SO vile, violent, arrogant, full of hatred of God and His Word AND His people, that unfortunately, this prayer of the Psalmist has not been answered.
There are those who have (and still are, thank God!) waking up to realization that we ARE on a increasingly rapid downspiral of humanity. The days of peace, obedience, and love for God and His Son are quickly being diminished, and the days of Sodom and Gomorrah (“as in the days of Lot”-Luke 17:28) and the days of Noah (Luke 17:26), are NOW upon us, and INCREASING.
But you need to read that WHOLE passage in Luke 17:26-30, for in verse 29, because of how the people were behaving in Lot’s day, the LORD God held back His anger no longer, and the day He charged two of His angels to get Lot and his family out of Sodom, “it rained fire and brimstone from Heaven, and destroyed them all” (vs. 29).
THAT is what is yet to come, because verse 30 states, “So it will be on the Day when the Son of Man is revealed.”
The Lord Jesus TOLD us 2000+years ago, that ALL the vile acts that we see INCREASING right now, as we live and breathe on this Earth TODAY, 2023, WOULD happen–and they ARE.
So do you realize what that means??
That means, HE is 100% RIGHT in ALL of His Word. Remember, He IS “THE” Word of God–He cannot leave any of what was to come, “out” just because it may “offend” some people. ALL of it WILL happen, just as the Scriptures said it would.
And it looks like that we ARE that “generation” to see and hear many of these “latter day” events come to pass.
So if you still have doubts about WHO the Lord Jesus is, WHO the Father is, and WHO the Holy Spirit is, and have concerns whether or not the Word of God is REAL–buckle up, buttercup (and I say that with all love and respect-I really do!💖), because
YOU HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING YET. We are entering into what is called, “the BEGINNING of sorrows” (Matt. 24:8), which happens BEFORE the time of the great Tribulation. Basically, it is the “woman in labor” and she is “contracting” even more so, as that time moves forward to the coming of the Anti-Christ.
After all, the world’s spiritual atmosphere must be in such a vile and ungodly state, as to want to ACCEPT this “man of sin, son of perdition” (2 Thess. 2:3).
I think we are pretty much “there”…I ended up having my daughter Ashley via c-section (she was breech), but I still was very much aware of the contractions that I should have had. I’d 🤔say this world is between 6-8 (15-20 minutes apart), leaning heavier on the 8(10-15minutes) , especially for what has taken place with all the vile Sodom and Gomorrah acts in the past year or so. It is quickly advancing towards those days of Noah and Lot which each and every passing day here in June, 2023.
Any woman (and I do mean ONLY women!) that has had contractions due to childbirth, KNOWS what I am talking about. Those last couple of numbers (8-10) can happen very quickly. Bottom line–If you’re approaching contractions less than 5 minutes apart (active labor), you better be on your way to the hospital, or else you’re having that baby at home!
Can you imagine what 6 months from now is going to look like?
Will we approach near the “10” (less than 5 minutes) by that time? No one knows, but I would seriously get your spiritual life in order now. Once the “birth pangs” start=once those contractions begin, sooner or later that baby is going to arrive on the scene. What has been foretold in such passages as Matthew 24, Luke 21, Mark 13, Daniel 12:1-4, 2 Tim. 3:1-5, 1 Thess. 5:2-5, Isaiah 2:12 (these are but a few).
It will increase in ungodliness, because the Lord Jesus TOLD us to EXPECT more of it, and lawlessness (which we are already living in right now!).
Do yourselves a favor, and make sure that you ARE on the side of the LORD God Almighty, and that the Captain of the Host, Adonai Elohim Tzevaot, is Your Savior, Lord, Master, and KING. Keep Him first and foremost in your lives NOW, from this day forward, if you have been lax in doing so. I beseech you now more than ever, to please make sure the Lord Jesus IS not only Savior, but LORD of your life. 🙏📖✝
So when you DO say, “Lord, Lord”–HE knows you MEAN it, and it is not just words coming out of your mouth (Luke 7:21).
Every human being who has lived on Earth, is primarily a SPIRIT BEING.
We are 1)SPIRIT, 2)SOUL, 3)BODY, in that order (1 Thess. 5:23).
The LORD GOD Almighty is the FATHER of spirits (Heb. 12:9).
The spirit of a human returns unto the Father when the human’s body has expired (Eccl. 12:7).
The LORD sends it either (now that Christ has been risen from the dead) to the “Hell” portion of Sheol temporarily until both body and soul (Matt. 10:28) will be raised and judged at the White Throne Judgment (Rev. 20:11-15; 21:8), and from there, the spirit, soul, and body of the person will endure eternity in the Lake of Fire;
OR–if the person was a believer in the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, and His Word (granted, 99.9% of all humans living on earth sinned), accepting the Lord Jesus as both Lord and Savior of their life (Rom. 10:9-10, 13; Acts 2:21), and lived a life according to what the Father commanded in His Word, then being a believer, they would “enter in the joy of the Lord (Matt. 25:23). “The one who conquers will have this heritage (Rev.21:3-4), and I will be his God and he will be My son” (Rev. 21:7).
EVERY person who does not only PROFESS Christ as Lord (Matt. 7:21), but actually LIVES the life of a believer, and is NOT ashamed of Him as some are (those who are ashamed of Christ will be like those in Luke 9:26 and Mark 8:38), will be rewarded with not only a new life and Spirit here on Earth (John 3:3,5,7), but will go on to see all that inexpressible beauty and glory that Revelation 21 and 22 speaks about, when it comes to the New Heaven and New Earth.
They get to spend all of Eternity with the Lamb who was slain, and sit at the Marriage Supper (Rev. 19:7,9), because they were part of the Bride of Christ (Eph. 5:24-27), and although a metaphor there in those verses, believers know that they are to keep themselves as spotless (sinless) as they can, when they are presented to the Father by the Son as the “Bride of Christ”. Hence the reason why Paul prays that the believer in 1 Thess. 5:23 will keep their WHOLE spirit, soul, AND body “blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
BUT–the person MUST have a NEW SPIRIT (Acts 4:31; Luke 11:13) dwelling within their spirit in order to have Eternal life. THAT Spirit IS the Holy Spirit, living and dwelling within them. He ONLY dwells within those who have CONFESSED CHRIST AS LORD AND SAVIOR. 1 Cor. 6:19 plainly says that our bodies are to be TEMPLES of the HOLY SPIRIT. He is to teach, guide, correct, and remind us (Jn. 16:13; 14:26) of all that Christ in His Word, wanted us to know and learn.
The world, the flesh, and the devil (James 3:15; 1 Jn. 2:16) has made 99.9% of the human population think it is supposed to be BODY, soul, and spirit (and there are some humans who do not believe in anything spiritual), but it is NOT.
The body of a person becomes a VESSEL for other spirits who never belonged there–demonic entities who found a “crack” due to unconfessed sin in the person’s life, and thereby made themselves “at home” with that person. More can come in if the person is unaware of what is going on spiritually, until that person ends up vexed, obsessed, depressed, oppressed, or-worst of all-possessed. The person ends up in a “spiritual prison” right in their own BODY, being a “slave” to those sins, surrounded by evil entities that will NOT give that body up, until that person either confesses Christ, or those demons kill them off.
Our bodies were meant to be vessels of honor (2 Tim. 2:21) for the Lord Jesus, and the Holy Spirit to dwell within us-NOT dishonor, nor being taken over by evil spirits, who only cause chaos and seek to steal, kill, and destroy the human vessel (Jn. 10:10).
The SPIRIT of a person is the part that goes on to live FOREVER–whether in Eternity with Christ, or in Hell “prepared for the devil and his angels” ( Matt. 25:41), and ultimately, in the Lake of Fire (Rev. 20:11-15). You either are in darkness (evil) or light (Christ).
I am working on a book about the Holy Spirit, and pretty much everything else I can speak about concerning spirits, and how we either allow the SPIRIT of the LIVING GOD into our lives, or else we WILL end up with evil spirits controlling us in one way or another. After all, it IS of the Lord’s doing for me to work on this, as plain as my last name (Geist = spirit), that He revealed to me back in 2018.
I hopefully will be done with that book by the end of this summer, prior to starting my PhD in Bible Exposition.
No matter whether a person believes it or not, we ARE in a VERY SPIRITUAL realm, hidden by much PHYSICAL, earthly “junk” to distract us.
🙏I pray every day for the Lord Jesus to save as many souls from that prison of darkness and evil, and bring them to His light of Eternal life. 🙏Set them free, Lord Jesus; please set those souls free!!
This came to me as I was waking up this morning, and speaking to the Lord about all the evil that is plaguing this world.
I mentioned to Him (as I do every day as I wake up) how much I’d rather be HOME with Him, than be here, and that I cannot wait for That Day.
His exact response at that moment was, “YOU fight FIRE with FIRE; The consuming fire of God fights against the fires of Hell.”
As I started my morning routine and continued to think more about this and discuss this with the Holy Spirit, I felt led to make this statement.
We ARE in a fight for eternal souls; either mankind ends up in “the lake of fire and brimstone” (Rev. 20:10) because they have chosen NOT to follow God and His Word, or They will become a child of the Living Eternal Godhead while here on Earth, and have the fire of the Holy Spirit of God living and working within them, for the remainder of their time here on Earth.
Again, the choice is up to each individual human spirit, WHERE they end up, and what kind of FIRE they give themselves up to.
I ready today’s “Days of Praise” devotional from ICR, and it rang loudly in my heart and spirit. This is what I have been seeing happening in the churches more and more as the decades have gone by. More church leaders are willing to give up the very callings of God on their lives, and no longer teaching the truths of the Bible, in order to change with the times and follow Satan’s lead instead of God’s. It is creating a recipe not only for spiritual disaster, but imminent JUDGMENT from the Almighty that is prophesied to happen. This is the time of “mercy” that the Lord God has given this generation, since the time of His Son Jesus’ death on the Cross, and resurrection. But this time will not last forever.
Judgment WILL come, and as St. Peter wrote in his letter, “For it is time for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do NOT obey the gospel of Christ?” (1 Peter 4:17). The judgment will start with God’s own—His leaders of the Church, and those who have at one time, committed themselves to teach His Word. Then will be all those who say they are Christians, from whatever branch of Christianity they hail from.
For the Lord Jesus, it will be both a time of happiness and sadness, because He will end up condemning some who have said, “Lord, Lord” (Matthew 7:21), but never really followed Him due to their fear of being “offensive” and hurting people’s feelings with the truth of His Word. They will find out the hard way that there was always to be division and offence in this world, because the truth of the Word of God is exactly what it is written as in Hebrews 4:12–“For the Word of God is LIVING and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, PIERCING to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” God’s Word is hated by those who follow the evil ones who deceive them and turn them away from His Truth, and the father of lies himself—Satan.
May we always strive more each day, to have an ear to “Hear what the (Holy) SPIRIT says to the churches” (Rev. 2:11a), so we do not get caught up in either learning or teaching wrong doctrines, and causing more division between the Body of Christ. Allow the Holy Spirit to do His job here—“When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth, for He will not speak on His own authority, BUT WHATEVER HE HEARS (from the LORD God) HE WILL SPEAK, and He will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take what is Mine and declare it to you” (Jn. 16:13-14).
TRUTH offends. TRUTH of God’s Word causes divisions, BUT those who are OFFENDED by those truths, are not really looking to be humbled by His Word. Their hearts are hardened like Pharaoh in Moses’ day. We all know how THAT turned out for him.
A major part of what the LORD God has been doing with me these past few years is written right in 2 Timothy 3:16–learning the right doctrine, for reproof, correction, for instruction in righteousness…”. He has shown me were my errors were, the corrections that needed to be made in my spiritual walk with Him, and now, after “maturing” over these past 6+ years, I will now be able to speak more about it, and pass on the information to you. But truth always comes with some pain—the “faithful wounds of a friend” (Prov. 27:6). I’d rather offend with the loving truth of God’s Word, than deceive someone with the hateful lying tongue of the enemy.
The Body of Christ has been split thousands of times over, that shreds of the Truth of Scripture has been spread out amongst the Body; some have much of the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, but are lacking in doctrine, while others have the richness and beauty of the liturgical truths, but do not pray through the Holy Spirit as they ought, leaving them powerless against demonic attacks and also personal growth and maturity in the Word of God.
The Body of Christ has been too busy fighting with one another, causing divisions, making their own gains in this world, and forsaking the reason why they were called to preach and or teach the Gospel of Christ to begin with. Satan loves that, and he makes sure that he keeps them chained up with just enough of the worldly lusts to make them a vessel of dishonor, instead of one to be honored by the Lord Jesus, at the end of their time serving Him on Earth (Romans 9:21-23; 2 Timothy 2:20-22).
Decide whether or not you will be the one who will cause divisions because you want to live in the worldly sense while saying you are a Christian, not becoming a vessel of honor, or–
Be like JESUS, Who caused divisions and offences BECAUSE He not only spoke the truth of the Word, but taught it and LIVED it.
I choose to be like JESUS. If I am to cause divisions, it is only because those who do not like to be called out for their sins of the flesh, the world, and all the lusts they love to live with, hate when I speak the TRUTH. It is “offensive” to them. TOO BAD.
I’d rather be right with the LORD God, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit at the End of Days and the Judgment Seat of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:10) as a true believer and servant of Elohim and His Maschiach, than standing naked before Him at the White Throne Judgment Seat (Rev. 20:11-15), hearing those words, “DEPART from Me, for I never knew you” (Matthew 7:23).
I do “get” what the LORD God is attempting to do—wake every single person up out of the satanic spell we’ve been under since Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate the fruit. I may not like HOW the LORD is doing it, and how much of the evil He is allowing to be infiltrated into our lives right now, but He knows that some will finally “wake up” and realize that this life here on Earth was never supposed to be all that wonderful; especially not after what happened at the Fall—of Angels, and Humans. This is a broken, evil world, and eventually, the Lord needs to destroy it.
Seriously—since then, we lost the power and ability of our higher spiritual “functions”, if you will = close relationship with God, and those of us who have accepted His Son over the last two millennia, still have struggled to live a life that would please Him. The only way to regain some of those higher functions is having a relationship with the Lord Jesus, and NOT the illegal way some others manage to “tap into” those powers. It is ONLY through Jesus Christ. Period. Any other way is satanic and demonically induced.
The rest of the human population is walking around, still under that same Satanic “spell”, and in all reality ARE “the walking dead” – spiritually. They are very OPEN (and most do not know it!) to the very LEGAL demonic doorways in their lives, and every evil entity that finds a “legal” doorway, takes it. Hence the reason why there are more and more immoral people out there, saying and doing things that we never thought in our lifetime we would see or hear, but it’s happening!!
LAWLESSNESS IS abounding, as the Lord Jesus stated (Matt. 24:12). We cannot go hide under a rock somewhere and pretend it’s not going on!! We cannot go on with our own lives, and IGNORE the truth of the amount of evil there is, because ONE day, it very may well catch up with US, or someone we love and care about (esp those who do NOT have the Lord Jesus in their lives!)!
The only ROCK we should be clinging to, is the LORD God Almighty! HE is our ROCK, our fortress, and our deliverer!! (2 Sam. 22:2-3; Ps. 18:2)! HE alone is the ROCK of our salvation (Ps. 95:1)! He is our REFUGE (Ps. 62:7). We should remind ourselves that we ARE to be that “light” (Matt. 5:14; Jn. 1:5)to all those who are in the darkness (evil)! TELL them (and let us remind ourselves as well!) that The LORD lives, and blessed be our ROCK, and exalted be the God of OUR salvation! (Ps. 18:46)
If WE do not tell them, beloved—if WE do not INFORM and WARN them now, we WILL answer to the Judge of all the Earth (Gen. 18:25) for it. IF they refuse—If they choose NOT to REPENT, and go further into the evil that is increasing every day here (and the LORD God is allowing it for a reason!!), it eventually will destroy them.
Let us do our part to continue to inform and warn everyone, and tell them that they DO have a choice—and that choice is to accept the ROCK of AGES (Is. 26:4) into their lives—Jesus Christ!! HE is the ONLY way a human being is to avoid what is soon to come upon the Earth, and also, eternal damnation and destruction.
I had to share these verses with you all. In order to do so, I had to divide them up into three frames. It all comes from Ezekiel 3. I suggest you read that chapter in its entirety. The Holy Spirit will share with you through me whatever else He feels pertinent at this time in this post. I highly suggest you take His Words in this post very seriously.
🙏🏼Lord God my ✡️Father, please allow every person who truly does seek You out, to find You, and no longer be part of the wrath and judgment that is to come. I plead with You, Abba—hear their cries of conviction, and see how they humble themselves finally before You, to accept Your ✝️Son and Your Word into their lives. 🕊Holy 🕊Spirit🕊, please enter into them, and teach and guide them into all 📖Your truth, with whatever time remains. I ask You this in the name of Jesus, my Lord, my Savior, my Master, and my King—Amen.
You will also see in that chapter, how the Spirit of God LIFTED Ezekiel up in vv. 12 and 14, and in verse 24 it actually says, “But the Spirit ENTERED INTO me (Ezekiel) and set me on my feet, and He SPOKE to me…” He did the same to the Apostle John in Revelation (4:1-2).
The Spirit of God has always been at work within His people-those who He has chosen to speak the very hard things that most people—sometimes even the ones He has chosen (like Jonah!) do not want to hear.
But sooner or later, we realize it IS all TRUTH—He and His Word IS the way, the truth, and the life—so we accept whatever that call is in our lives, and allow the Holy Spirit to ENTER into us, and do His work, until that particular work is finished, or our time here comes to an end.
For Ezekiel, it was not any different. He had a choice—to allow the LORD God to use him as an instrument of WARNING to the people of Israel (“to the Jew first and also to the Gentile”-Rom. 1:16), to turn from their wicked ways, and also warn them of what was to come in the future.
Most did not heed the warnings. Unfortuately, that is still the case to this very day, thousands of years later, and even AFTER the Father sent the Son AS THE ”Stone of offence and Rock of stumbling” (Isaiah 8:14, Jer. 6:21) to the House of Israel. Later on, it was to the Gentiles, to provoke Israel to jealousy (Deut. 32:21) as Paul the Apostle stated in Romans 11:11 and verse 14, having that verse in Deuteronomy come to pass.
Why would the LORD use His own Son as a Rock of “offence” and stumbling? To get every single human being to hopefully realize that they cannot make it in this life without Him. And also, that once this life is over, they do NOT want to spend eternity, writhing in pain, agony, weeping and gnashing their teeth while in the eternal fires (Matthew 13:42).
It was not going to be an easy job for anyone whom He called to give out such warnings to the masses, whether they were Jews or Gentiles. But the warnings needed to be given, along with the blessings of peace with God, and eventually, eternal life for those who would accept Him and His Word.
Much would be lost along the way for these people, who dared to ”pick up their cross” (Luke 9:23), and follow the LORD God whether it was prior to the Son being born of that virgin (Is. 7:14), the very sign the LORD Himself gave mankind, so to know what was to be. And yet, humans STILL chose not to listen, and rejected the Very One who would be able to save them from those eternal fires.
The messages of warning still go on today. The LORD still has much in His Word that needs to come to pass. There are many like myself, trying to get people to “hear what the Spirit has to say to the churches” (Rev. 2:11).
But as the Lord Jesus said in that verse which was repeated throughout Revelation 2 and 3, and even WAY back in Deuteronomy 6:4, which started the Shema—“HEAR, O Israel,…”, one needs to “have an EAR—meaning, they need to be LISTENING to what the LORD God is saying through His Word, and through the people, His prophets, who are trying desperately to get these humans TO listen to what He is saying.
You are being given a loving warning, from the Most High God, and His Son, my Lord, my Savior, my Master, and my King, to HEAR what the Spirit of God—the HOLY SPIRIT is saying and warning to you all about what IS to come.
I do not want blood on my hands. I have done enough wrongs in my life, that thankfully, the Lord has forgiven me for, since I have confessed them before Him. YET, I also do not want to waste any more of the very little time we have left here, to go on living my life as a superficial Christian, barely doing or speaking anything, and worse yet, doing all that I have done, HALFheartedly, as the Father plainly told me I was serving Him beforehand.
That was said to me a little over six years ago, and I have been a believer all my life. But He wanted me to WHOLEHEARTEDLY serve Him, in the way and manner HE chose to do, NOT my way. Hence the life I have been living in these last six plus years.
There are always “consequences” to serving the LORD; those consequences are always in our favor eternally, but here on Earth, for those who are closest to us especially, there may be many “losses” along the way. I have had my share of those recently, and unfortunately, those losses which produce a broken heart is par for the course when serving Him.
People must make their own choices—“free will” is a gift from God, and He cannot overstep His own “prime directive”; it must be honored, if one chooses to reject Him, and the very people He has chosen to spread His Word, and give out His warnings. He is a very fair and Just God, although those who refuse to get to know Him think exactly the opposite.
Warnings will continue to be given, even when the most horrible time the world will ever face, will begin. It is being set up now, with certain pieces of that puzzle being put “into place” even as I write this out.
For those who desire to know, and to be prepared, do what the Scriptures tell you to do, and “SEEK the LORD” now, while you still have time, in THIS “time of grace” that has been given to us, but WILL soon end (Deut. 4:29; Jer. 29:12; is. 55:6-7; Ps. 14:2; 2 Chron. 7:14; Ps. 63:1; Ps. 9:10; Matt. 7:7; James 4:8).
I will end this with Psalms 119:2, and I beg you, dear ones, to PLEASE consider seeking the Lord, humbling yourselves before Him, and accepting Him into your lives, now, while you still have breath in you, and before the judgment of God begins (and no, we do NOT know the “day or hour” (Matt. 24:36).
For thousands of years He has been patient. He has sent His Son, Jesus, to be the perfect sacrifice-the spotless Lamb that was slain (Rev. 5:6), to save people from their sins, and from the WRATH that eventually has to be poured out (Is. 51:17; Ps. 11:6; Ps. 75:8; Matt. 13:41-42, 49-50; Luke 3:7; Rom. 1:18; 2:5; 5:9; 1 Thess. 1:10; 5:9; Rev. 6:16-17; 11:18; 12:12; 14:19; 15:1, 7; 16:1, 19, 19:15). God always keeps His Word. He has been gracious to give us this time to seek Him, and many warnings to heed.
But that time is running out. The “day” and the “hour” will SOON come upon this Earth, for the Lord Jesus Himself said that He IS the Alpha and Omega (Rev. 1:8; 21:6; 22:13), the First and the Last, the Beginning, and the END.
There WAS a beginning (Genesis 1:1), and there WILL be an end (Zech. 14:1-21; Matt. 24:14; 2 Peter 3:10; Rev. 13:1-18; 20:1-15).
“Blessed are they that KEEP His testimonies, and that SEEK Him with the whole heart.” Psalm 119:2
I don’t think the late Benedict XVI fully realized how prophetic his statement was. David certainly did not realize many of his Psalms were prophetic either, at the time when he was writing each of them. But we are actually SEEING this happen before our eyes, whether we are part of a “C” Catholic church or not.
The fact is, anyone who considers themselves a Christian—a true believer IN the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost/Spirit, and is baptized (Mk. 16:16), is a child of God, and IS part of the One holy “c” catholic (universal) and apostolic Church, regardless of what sect of Christianity you may hail from.
THIS AFFECTS ALL OF US—not just born-again, Bible-believing Catholics like myself who attend the TLM-Traditional Latin Mass-the very Mass that started it all, and yet the hierarchy has been trying to shut us down. Why? Because the TLM reminds them of how it all started, at the Last Supper between Christ and His disciples-that it’s all about HIM, and not the people in the seats. It’s FOR us in the seats, but the attention is wholly on GOD in that service, no one else, just like it was in the OT when the priests were in the tabernacle and even more so, in the Holy of Holies with the Spirit of God. And they hate that.
If you think that this does not or will not affect your church one day—think again. The power and spirit of AntiChrist has been here since the ascension of the Lord Jesus to the Father in Acts 1:8-11. The Apostle John spoke about it in his letters to the Church. He WARNED us that this would happen, and further more was able to explain and expound upon it when the Holy Spirit “raptured” or “snatched” his spirit up in a vision to Heaven in Revelation 4:1-2, and showed him some things that were at that time in his life that had to do with the Church, but the remainder of John’s vision had to do with what was to come in the latter days-the days WE in the 21st century, are living in presently.
You see, the problem with the CHURCH as a whole, is that one branch of the Tree thinks it is better, or holier, or more “Spirit-filled”, etc., than the others. Some branches do not at all accept the others as fellow believers, and would rather even dare to call them “heretics”; for that, the Lord Jesus will judge them harshly. It was Jesus Himself that admonished John in Luke 9:49-50 about this very thing; John and the other disciples saw someone casting out devils in Jesus’ name, and they told him to stop, just because that man was not in their particular group. Jesus said to John, “Do not stop him, for the one who is not against you, is for you.” But the devils and demons have done an excellent job in getting all of us to see each other as the enemy, INSTEAD of focusing on THEM! May the Lord forgive us for our lack of love toward one another!
NONE of us in any branch of the Church has it “perfect”; as a matter of fact, there wasn’t supposed to BE thousands of splits in the BODY of Christ! As the picture with the Scripture states, we were and ARE to be, ONE BODY, ONE SPIRIT in Christ-ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM, with ONE GOD and Father ruling OVER ALL of us (Eph. 4:4-6). But we managed in 2000+ years, to majorly screw that up to the point even the devils and demons themselves scratch their heads wondering how we managed to let it get that bad!
If after reading all of this, you still think that some parts of the whole BODY of Christ are “heretics” or “non-believers” because they do not worship exactly the same way you do, or sing the same songs you do, or preach the same way you do, or speak the Mass/service in the same language that you do, OR they do not seem to be as “holy” as you and your branch of Christianity is, well get ready to be KNOCKED OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE like Saul of Tarsus was (Acts 9:1-6)!
The Lord Jesus did it then, and in order to get HIS BODY of believers back to where it was wayyyy back in the time of Acts, there’s going to be some —actually, MANY of us who just may be going back to the “catacomb” days that soon followed in that first couple of centuries. So He will ALLOW it to happen, in order for us all TO become what He Himself prayed to the Father for in John 17, that we would be “sanctified in the truth, for Your Word is truth” (vs. 17), and that “the glory that You have given me I have given them, THAT THEY MAY BE ONE EVEN AS WE ARE ONE” (vs. 22). Jesus continued in verse 23, “I in them and You in Me, that THEY (that is us!!) may become PERFECTLY ONE, so that the WORLD may know that YOU sent Me and loved them even as you loved Me.”
The prayer in John 17 by the Lord Jesus has YET to fully be answered, because the BODY of Christ has been too busy arguing, fighting and condemning each other, instead of turning toward the Lord Jesus, and LISTENING to the HOLY SPIRIT, allowing HIM to lead and guide us, and grow us into the true BODY of CHRIST we were always meant to be, with ONE TRUE Spirit —not hundreds of evil spirits leading us into judgment and God forbid, even damnation!
PRAY and ask the Holy Spirit to REVEAL to you, how YOU as a believer in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit —the ONE TRUE GODHEAD—should be praying about this. Allow Him to HUMBLE you, and let Him show you what can do about all of this in this ever increasing evil time when the CHURCH BODY is and will be continuing to go through MUCH TRIBULATION in the days to come.
With much HUMILITY, REPENTANCE, and ALL of us in the Body seeking FORGIVNESS of such sins against each other, we may just be able to once again, stand strong (Eph. 6:10-18) against the TRUE enemy of our souls—the evil ones who have since the beginning of the time of God’s creation of humanity, sought out to STEAL, KILL, and DESTROY (Jn. 10:10) us off the face of the Earth, just because the LORD God loves us, and created us in HIS image. Also, because He sent His Son, Jesus, to SAVE us from our sins (Matt. 1:21), IF we were to ACCEPT Him into our lives.
Mark my words, mark Benedict’s words, and most importantly, mark THE WORD OF GOD—because ALL Scripture will be fulfilled, and the Church WILL go through a time of persecution and tribulation this world has yet to see. But it is coming. And sooner than any of us who ARE watching and seeing it happen, would like to admit.
PRAY and SEEK the Lord God, and His Son, and ask Him to humble you and your church body, in order to work with the other true branches of the Body of Christ. Those who ARE truly His, will desire to do HIS will, and work with one another, in love, in humility, in reverent fear of the LORD God and His living Word, which IS His SON, the LORD JESUS (Jn. 1:1-2, 14), Who is and always will be the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE (Jn. 14:6) for all that accept Him as both SAVIOR and LORD of their lives.
Remember the words of the Apostle Paul in Galatians 3:26-29, and LIVE them out, in love, humility and service to one another, fulfilling the law of Christ, and answering His prayer to the Father:
“For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither JEW nor GREEK, SLAVE nor FREE, there is no MALE and FEMALE, for you are ALL ONE in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to Promise.”
May the LORD GOD Almighty have mercy on us, and forgive our sins of highmindedness, and help us once again to become the HUMBLE servants of the Most High He desired all of us in the Body of Christ to be—one HOLY, CATHOLIC, and APOSTOLIC CHURCH. In Jesus’ most precious Name—Amen. ✨✝️📖✨✝️📖✨✝️📖✨✝️📖✨✝️📖 Pope Benedict XVI visionary….(from 1969)
WE ARE HERE ! The prophecy of Fr. Joseph Ratzinger in 1969: “We will soon have reduced priests to the role of social workers and the message of faith reduced to political views. Everything will seem lost, but at the right moment, right in the most dramatic stage of the crisis, the Church will be reborn. She will be smaller, poorer, almost catacombal, but even more holy. For it will no longer be the Church of those who seek to please the world, but the Church of the faithful to God and His eternal law. Rebirth will be the work of a small remains, seemingly insignificant yet indomitable, passed through a purification process. Because that’s how God works. Against evil, a small flock resists. “
