Conferring with a friend, we discussed the myriad of News events, articles taking place all over the world which indicate the time of the Great Consummation is nearly upon us.
Standing alone each article tell the – unaware – little to nothing.
Did you know famine is raging across the Congo, Afghanistan and Madagascar and beginning to decimate 43 other nations. Would you call this a SIGN OF THE TIMES?
When the Rapture comes it will look much like the following verses.
Revelation 6:12-17, a poetic rendering for the day of the Rapture!
Notice, Christians are not included in this rendering – simply because Christians joined the Gathering and are celebrating at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb – in Heaven. Yeah, Buddy!
Revelation 6:12-17 –
12) I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold,
There was a great earthquake;
And the sun became black as sackcloth of hair,
And the moon became like blood.
13)Â
And the stars of heaven fell to the earth,
like a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
The busyness of the day BLINDs you to the FACT that we are currently living in the Beginning of Sorrows!
What’s my point?
Unlike a millennia ago, a century ago – YES – even a decade ago — the End-Times are here. No! the Great Tribulation of the Great Consummation has not started, but the Tribulation Period is just a few steps away.
So, what does that mean to me/you?
It means… playtime is over! If you have not been letting your “Light of Christ” shine in your daily life then you are shirking your God given responsibility.
Check it out!
You are the salt of the earth; (YOU ARE!) but if the salt loses its flavor, (You are not doing your job.) how shall it be seasoned? (Are you the salt of Christ?) It is then good for nothing – but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.
Love is the answer. Jesus said people will know us by our love. But, is loving others the Christian image most often interpreted by the common Man? No, not generally, or at least not often enough?
Too often the Body of Christ projects an unloving, judgmental, prejudicial, superior and hypocritical posture. Frankly I’ve never met anyone who does not exhibit most of these traits at least once during an average week. That’s why we need to saved by Grace, thru Faith, not of works, lest anyone boast… IT IS a Gift from the Big Kahuna in the sky. Yet… in truth… we often show love too. Anyone who says otherwise is also expressing an unloving, judgmental, prejudicial, superior and hypocritical posture.
So, who must we love? Our families, of course! So then, who is our family?
When was the last time you seriously challenged one of your belief platforms? There are 6 primary End-Times or Great Tribulation or End of Days teachings: whatever title you prefer. Listed below you’ll find the top six:
The Great Consummation teaching
The A-Millennial teaching
Pre-Tribulation Rapture teachings
Mid-Tribulation Rapture teachings
Post-Tribulation Rapture teachings
Preterism
Which one is correct? How do we know? And why are five of these teachings so completely off track?
Learn the answers in This Side of the Whirlwind’s, The Decimation Series.
Here, I’ll get you started with: The Decimation Part 1,
Let do the work the Lord has laid out before us while we still can…
While it is Yet DAY
On this day – in the life and times of Jesus of Nazareth – Jesus was walking past a blind man when one of his followers asked Him, “Lord, who sinned in this man’s life; was it his parents? Is that why this man was born blind?” (John 9:1-2 paraphrased significantly)
Jesus responded, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned; rather, he suffers blindness so the works of God might be displayed in thru his life.”
Following this exchange Jesus healed the man of the blindness and then told him to go and wash himself in the Pool of Siloam.
Believable for that day, the religious community in Jerusalem had a fit when they found out Jesus dared to heal a man on their Sabbath day. How dare HE! (pun intended)
Truly a Tree for the Forest type of blindness overran the Pharisees’ vision of this great work of God.
Tucked right in the middle of this section of scripture is a entirely appropriate comment from Jesus which just so happens to also be a Prophecy related to the End of Days:
Here is what Jesus said, “As long as it is day (day-light) I must do the works of HIM who sent me. The Night (time of darkness) comes when no one can work. As long as I am (Jesus) in the world, I am (Jesus) the light of the world.” (John 9:4-5)
Jesus was/is telling us that a time is coming when NO ONE will be able to do the works of God successfully. By sheer implication, the Saints of God will need to be here on the earth during this period otherwise the comment if moot. If there is no to do the work in the timeframe to which Jesus speaks, as in zero Christians on the planet, then Jesus’ comment would simply be useless. The phrase, “The night comes when no one can work” would be irrelevant; so why say it?
IN a passage found in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8 Paul admonishes us to not get prematurely stressed out or alarmed over the coming of the End of Days; rather, the signs of the times (Prophecies about this day and age) are good enough to let us know when the End-Times would be upon us… THEN
Paul tells us what is holding up the coming of that AGE and its incredible events:
Paul writes,
Remember when I was with you, I told you about these coming events?
You see, now you know what is withholding or restraining the coming of the Beast who will reap havoc during the Great Tribulation of the Great Consummation.
The mystery of lawlessness is already at work – it is simply that HE who keeps evil at bay (He who lets) will continue to keep the Beast at bay (will let) until HE (Jesus) is taken out of the way.
Then that Wicked One (the Beast of the End-Times) will be revealed.
You see, that day, the day when the Wicked One (the Beast) is revealed is ALSO the day when the Great Tribulation of the Great Consummation will begin.
Thus, Jesus is taken out of the way and the “Night when no one can work” has begun…
Because, the Light of the world has been taken out of the way.
Remember, Jesus said,
“As long as it is day (day-light) I (Jesus) must do the works of HIM who sent me.
The Night (time of darkness) comes when no one can work.
As long as I am (Jesus) in the world, I am (Jesus) the light of the world.” (John 9:4-5)
When the night comes – The Beast will be revealed and the Tribulation Period of the Great Consummation will have begun.
If you’re interested in more information on this topic grab a copy of your Bible and then get a copy of our book, “This Side of the Whirlwind, the Coming Apocalypse”. Online everywhere and possibly at your local bookstore.
Until then… God bless you and have a wonderful day!
(In case you’ve forgotten, our book, “This Side of the Whirlwind, The Coming Apocalypse” predicted to the month when the Virus would strike and the financial failures worldwide and the riots that followed. AND there is still more to come prophesied in This Side of the Whirlwind.)
Okay, on with the blog!
We’ve emptied our former home and put it on the market, no sell yet (26 days).
We know of other believers who have and are doing the same in preparations for the coming Great Tribulation of the Great Consummation. Definitely want to be as prepared as you can.
AS many of you may have determined… there is no question the world has entered the Beginning of Sorrows: https://wp.me/p7sC9J-1uV .
Here’s a simple question with far reaching implications:
Group A) One month into COVID-19 (say April 20th 2020) how many of you were glad you had a year’s supply of long-term food supplies and survival gear?
Group B) One month into COVID-19 (say April 20th 2020) how many of you were scared seeing the empty shelves in stores and wondering if you’d be able to secure short-term food supplies along with toilet paper and other family necessities?
Group C) One month into COVID-19 (say April 20th 2020) how many of you didn’t give it much thought because you had a year’s supply (or more) of long-term food supplies and survival gear AND you had a place all picked out for the Coming Storm?
Praise the Lord, those of us at “This Side of the Whirlwind” fit into Group C!
Yes! We are in the Beginning of Sorrows!
Do you know what that means?
The Great Tribulation is nearly upon us.
You should know (recognize!!!) the facial mask situation is merely a precursor to what is on the horizon. Are you outside of or part of the Mob-Rule which is taking place all over the world?
Can you see how this single tool of conformity will be used by every nation on the planet to mandate a STEP by STEP march into everyone expecting and even demanding you receive the Bio-implanted financial technology which will be the infamous Mark of the Beast.
Mark of the Beast: any piece of technology which is financially based and will go in or on the skin. The “Mark” will likely provide access to your medical records, financial information and of course clear identification as to who you are.
Whatever we do we cannot receive the Mark of the Beast!
Another included feature with the Mark of the Beast will be a confirmation the barer has received his or her government mandated inoculations.   OF COURSE you and your children with have to have this technology. Everyone will be required so that we can protect everyone from the plagues/viruses/pandemics/financial frauds/ terrorists and the list goes on…!
Remember, in case you’ve forgotten, our book, “This Side of the Whirlwind, The Coming Apocalypse” predicted to the month when the Virus would strike and the financial failures worldwide and the riots that followed.
Well, let’s keep this kind of short today.
While taking whatever Baby Steps you need to take to be ready for the Storm that IS Coming.
If you’re not sure what you should be doing then check out the 23rd chapter of “This Side of the Whirlwind”. You can find it on line or in your local bookstore.
Okay, love you guys – God bless you one and all AND have a great day!
