“Days of Noah” Are Here

The most important decision you will ever make in your life is who or what you put your faith in. Everyone is putting their faith in something.

The days of Noah were characterized by pervasive wickedness with deceit, sexual immorality, violence and coldness of hearts. The world was going through each day doing the same thing unaware of the approaching end.

Have you noticed that each decade has gotten incrementally worse since after WWII? So, by extension, the next decade (written in 03/2019) will be worse than now. That should definitely tell you something.

Approximately 150,000+ people did not make it through today, and tomorrow the same thing will happen.

REPENT or PERISH

When tragedy and disaster happens there is often this false idea that those affected did something wrong or perhaps God was angry with them.

The truth is time ran out for all of them and any opportunity to repent has been lost forever.

Jesus said “those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them”, do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.” Luke 13

“The wrath of God” is poured out in the coming tribulation as a result of complete wickedness and persistent unrepentance.

CALL FROM HEAVEN: CHANGE YOUR DIRECTION

Turn now and make peace with God and do not wait until it is too late. You are not promised tomorrow so take that to heart. That was the mistake made during the time of Noah as well who did not listen to the pleas from Noah to Repent and make peace with God. It is a tactic of the enemy (Satan) to distract you with the problems of this world and your wants until time runs out for you.

It is like a fire coming over a hill and you run to get on a boat that is leaving. The ship master says he does not know you (there is no relationship) and turns you away. You are terrified at that point knowing it is over and nothing can save you. Not your good works, not your money, your friends, your intellect, your reputation, not even God.

That is the experience of an unbeliever when his/her life ends or any unbeliever that is still here for the return of Jesus.  

There is good news however. If you are reading this, it is not too late!

There is a difference between knowing of someone and having an actual friendship. There are people in an apartment building for example, that you say hello to politely each day and probably know their name. In fact you could know a lot about them as well. If you went to their door and said you wanted to live there, they would say no, they do not know you.

The word Repent means to change your direction. It is your thinking and beliefs that determine your direction. Jesus started his ministry with the message of repentance first. There is a profound change that happens when you do not make excuses and are willing to see yourself as you really are. God often makes things difficult when there is a call to repentance, so that you do not go over a cliff.

The command is to reconsider your thinking, behavior, what you believe, and ask God for forgiveness. There is a change in behavior and words, that is noticeable and persistent, when true repentance happens. The opposite of repentance is excuses, apologies, self-deception, denial and lies.

There are two doors that close. The first is the end of your life when you leave this world. The second door is the one to heaven that closes if you have no relationship with Jesus.

This world is a temporary place that God has created, giving you a fixed amount of time to turn to the Lord. Do not make more of this world than what it is! The world system is spiritually dead and opposes God. It will keep you bound unless you turn to God.

The present creation is now passing away at a faster rate and you will perish with it as well if you are not in the Ark. You cannot live in two worlds. It is in the dark times when the grace of God is even more abundant.

What I can tell you after 25 years as a Christian is that God loves you, knows your past, and where you are now.

Make peace with God through Christ Jesus for the new and everlasting life. Know peace, healing, truth and relationship with God before it is too late. Do not harden your hearts and resist the Lord when he knocks at your door.

“Everyone who calls (believes in their heart) on the name of the Lord will be saved. “

Prophecy and Revelation

The scriptures tell you where things are going in the end times. There is a new world order coming however it is not going to last long.

Matthew 24 – There will be natural disasters, many wars, increasing wickedness, coldness of hearts and many false prophets.

Romans 1:24 – “They started worshiping creation instead of the creator who is forever praised”

Book of Jude

Antichrist and Globalism: The Final Act

Book of Daniel has a lot of prophecy concerning the end times tribulation period. The Antichrist will invade middle east nations and then sign a peace agreement with many.

That starts a 7 year tribulation period. There will be a period of peace at this time although natural disasters and such will continue. After 3.5 years, the Antichrist breaks the peace agreement and terrible times will start with another war.

Daniel 8:23 – During this time when the world has become completely wicked, a leader with a fierce or bold appearance will emerge. The Antichrist is an emerging political leader from Europe (king of the north), from an alliance of western nations. He will invade nations in the middle east and this time Israel as well. “And with deceit he shall attack and destroy many suddenly when they are at peace.” He will persecute Christians to death, abolish the daily sacrifice from the temple and magnify himself above God . He is destroyed by the splendor of the return of Jesus.

Daniel 11:32 – He (antichrist) will use flattery and favor to turn unbelievers against the people of God (Israel/Saints), “but the people who know their God will firmly resist him (be strong and do great exploits)”.

The Mark

This is a digital tattoo or implant under the skin on your right hand or forehead, that brands you for destruction. The Antichrist world leader will require you to receive the mark during the tribulation to buy or sell anything. Remember, what you put your faith in is the most important decision you will ever make, and the setup paved with lies and fear is now coming your way.

There is a declaration and last severe warning (or plea) that anyone taking the mark of the beast have no hope left for salvation. It could buy you a couple of more years near the end but consider the cost.

Two Witnesses and that Great City

Consider the two witnesses and their 42 month ministry as a milestone. They will minister according to the will of God from that great harbor city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt. It is called the Whore of Babylon that rules over the kings of the earth. Sodom was and Egypt is a gentile city. That great city has made many nations wealthy with trade, she is a political power and full of wickedness.

Jesus was crucified outside of the holy city (Jerusalem) representing the gentile world. The two witnesses will be raised from the dead by God as a witness as well that God will resurrect his saints. The Antichrist will rule from Jerusalem for a limited time after God sends the beast kingdom to destroy that great city and change the world order briefly to fulfill his purpose. Remember, God is sovereign.

Rev 17:15 – “The beast shall hate the whore (USA) and make her desolate”

Call to Encouragement

Jesus said from Matthew 28:18 – “all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me”

Rev 14:9 is a call and encouragement for the saints to patient endurance and perseverance through all trials (tests). If you fall away during imprisonment, hunger, homelessness or hatred from others you are not really a believer. You are still trying to live in two worlds and don’t want your faith to cost you anything.

Rev 12:11 – “They defeated the enemy (satan) by the blood of the lamb (Jesus), and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives even unto death.”

At some point the church everywhere should start resembling again the early church of Romans 16 as an example of true Christian fellowship.

John 13:34 – A new command I give you: “Love one another. As I have loved you, so love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have genuine love for one another.”

There are many Christians that will endure the great tribulation until the Lord returns. Why would God remove all Christians and have no witnesses?

The Great Commission: Witness!

Jesus says in Matt 24:14 – “and this gospel will be preached throughout all the world as a testimony to all nations and then the end will come.” There is Rev 7:14 that point to believers who go through the great tribulation.

Rev 20:11 – “Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them.”

Rev 21:4 – “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

Spiritual Warfare

Love is a tactic of spiritual warfare. Do not step into the trap of offence or unforgiveness, giving the devil any advantage. Live the authentic life, turn to Jesus at all times and for all things, Do not swim upstream all the time by resisting what God is trying to do in your life. If you do not know then be still, wait patiently on the Lord, seek with a pure heart, listen and obey. Associate only where there is true fellowship and true worship.

Resist the attacks of the devil knowing your struggle is not with flesh and blood (others), it is with spiritual wickedness. The sword of the spirit is the word of God and your weapon when under attack. Meditate on it to renew your mind and strengthen your faith. Speak it to yourself and others as encouragement. Select what you watch, are around and listening to all the time since the wrong things have an erosive effect.

2 Peter 5:9 – Resist him, standing firm in your faith and in the knowledge that your fellow believers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of trials and suffering.”

2 Tim 4:7 – When the devil attacks, then stand. “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”

Lead with Love – witness from love and not pride or selfish motives. Testify to the goodness of God and how the Lord has blessed and changed your life. Answer questions making known that we are all sinners and how sin destroys. Some will listen and some won’t. It is something you live each day in your daily life as well.

You are not being a friend to anyone when you support and accept a lifestyle that is destroying their soul. Never judge either!

Proverbs 18:21 and Matt 12:36 – Your words have power. In fact the “power of life and death” are in them.

Consider your words carefully knowing you can speak life or death to another. Sometimes you can decide to say nothing at all. This is a time to prepare your hearts and minds. Do not be troubled by the current things as the Lord said.

The great commission is the salvation of souls. Any work that does not support or directly accomplish that is in vain.

The word of God is the source for revelation truth, joy, power, comfort and warfare. Always refer to the word of God and consider the early church for examples of pure authentic Christianity. Why think yourself so different from them?

Faith, Prayer and hearing/reading the word of God then work together. Singing hymns as Paul and Silas did will move you into the presence of God.

Spend more time in quiet stillness and have your mind continually renewed through meditating on the LIVING word of God.
