THE DECIMATION 6! This Side of the Whirlwind

The Decimation 6

Proponent Proposition:

The Great Tribulation pertains to Israel and not the Church

 Proponents: Preterists, Pre-Tribers, Mid-Tribers and any who support Post-Tribulation doctrines.  The A-Millennial viewpoint ignores the above proposition considering it moot.

 According to proponents the Body of Christ (the Church) will not be subject to the Tribulation Period because the “Church” is exempt from the Judgment rendered during the Great Tribulation and this Judgment because it is the Wrath of God (1 Thessalonians 5:9).

 Proponents consent to the idea the Body of Christ took over where Israel failed God in His plans for humanity; therefore, it is Israel and not the Body of Christ who is subject to the coming Wrath of God (which is taught to take place during the Great Tribulation).  The Saints are anticipated to be exempt because the Body of Christ has been set free from the Laws of Sin and Death and Israel has not accepted Christ’s sacrifice for sin.

Beauty of My Woman: Poetry

The Beauty of My Woman

The beauty of my woman is found not in the fit of her clothes, nor the application of her cosmetics.

 It matters not how plaited her hair or the fall of it upon her shoulders

 Neither does the color of her hair matter, nor the smoothness of her beautiful skin.

 All these fail to show the real beauty of who she has become to me.

Sweeter are the Moments

Here’s another one of my Prayers I stumbled across and thought you might enjoy.

Here’s to hoping Jesus enjoyed them each and every one!

Sweeter the Moments

Oh Lord, my God, sweeter are the moments I spend with You;

The Decimation 5b

NOW! Don’t be thrown by this first subtitle, “No New Salvations.”  This subject is still related to “Tribulation Saints” and what the Great Consummation message brings to this subject.

So, let’s press on.

(Excerpts, Excerpts, Excerpts from This Side of the Whirlwind)

Where else?

No New Salvations?

“Despair, you farmers, Wail, you vine growers, grieve for the wheat and the barley, because the harvest of the field has perished” (Joel 1:11).

• The ministers of the gospel are the farmers and vine growers who will mourn and weep for the lost.
• The wheat denotes the children of God, those who have received the gospel message but for whatever reason gave up before or during the Great Consummation.
• Frankly, I’m not sure exactly what the barley represents so I’ll leave that for God to reveal in His perfect timing.
• At the time of this harvest, all crops will and have failed and none were or will be saved.

A February Prayer: This Side of the Whirlwind

A February Prayer

Hey Whirlwind Fans, this is simply a prayer I offered on February 26^th 2019 because I was feeling moved by the Holy Spirit as a sense of His love flowed through my spirit.

How much more blessed can a people be than to actually feel the loving presence of their God!

So here’s the prayer:

Stars fill the heavens and streak across the night’s sky.

Brilliant and glorious light bathes our world every day in life warming beauty.

Then there’s that first cry of a newborn child

The first tears from a beloved

Laughter at a distance – listening to such delight in those we love.

The Decimation 5A: Tribulation Saints?

The Decimation 5a

Tribulation Saints

One of the tragic misunderstandings in the Pre, Mid and Post-Tribulation teachings as well as the A-Millennial and Preteristic viewpoints is the idea of Tribulation Saints.  Tribulation Saints as presented by these false doctrines represent those individuals, Lukewarm Christians and or secular peoples, who come to the knowledge of Jesus as Lord AFTER the Resurrection and Rapture of the Body of Christ has taken place.  BAD doctrine!

Once again, these wrong minded teachings are the result of Christendom not having the entire message for the End Times.  Remember, the Prophets Daniel and John were told by God to, “…Shut up the words and seal the book until the “Time of the End,” (Daniel 8:11-26; 12:4-9 and Revelation 10:1-7).

WE ARE the Tribulation Saints!

Those Christians living in the Latter Days “right now” will be the Tribulation Saints.

This Side of the Whirlwind: Eyes Open?

Eyes Open?

Hey Whirlwind Fans

The world is nearly in the throes of the Great Consummation (most call this period the Great Tribulation) and there are still several prophecies yet to be realized. The Body of Christ needs to watch for specific signs and not mimic the folly of the Jewish Priesthood before the days of Christ.

Many prophecies of that day were fulfilled under the very noses of the Priesthood and yet they remained oblivious or simply ignored the coming signs.

No! Christendom cannot afford to be so blind!

God’s plan required the blindness of the Israelites in their day, but the children of the light (that’s you and me) are not in darkness so that the coming of the Lord should overtake us, the saints, as a thief in the night.[1]

As the Body of Christ, we are to know the times and seasons and be ready.[2] In other words, MAKE READY!

This Side of the Whirlwind: What is the Meaning of Life?

Let’s revisit a truly important issue!

I’m keeping this simple because the “Meaning of Life Series” is pretty comprehensive.

A Prophetic Life? True-Life 41

A Prophetic Life?

Thus says the Lord, “One year from now you will have a son and he will be a man of God.”

These words were spoken – by a stranger – to my mother – 12 months before I was born.  I don’t know if I was born on the exact same day 12 months later but I wouldn’t be surprised.

Though not by choice at first I have lived a life filled with prophecies and interactions with God. Today, I would not have it any other way!

Some prophecies over the course of my life were given to me (for me) by others with prophetic giftings – some of those prophecies came to pass and some not so much.

So what is a legitimate prophecy?

This Side of the Whirlwind’s: Who Can Learn?

Who Can Learn?

Scripture supports itself!

Who can accurately learn and understand the message found in God’s Word?

Well, according to Isaiah 28:9–13 and Hebrews 5:12-14, God teaches and enlightens those who mature in the pursuit of His Word and His Will:

For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed into the image of his Son… (Romans 8:29 NIV)

So who will HE teach?
