Acts 8:34-40 New American Standard Bible 1995 34 The eunuch answered Philip and said, “Please tell me, of whom does the prophet say this? Of himself or of someone else?” 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture he preached Jesus to him. 36 As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch *said, “Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?” 37 [[a]And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”] 38 And he ordered the chariot to stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away; and the eunuch no longer saw him, [c]but went on his way rejoicing. 40 But Philip [d]found himself at [e]Azotus, and as he passed through he kept preaching the gospel to all the cities until he came to Caesarea. It's interesting to note that the meeting between Philip and the Ethiopian Bureaucrat Eunuch Government Official was quite brief because it was immediately after Philip shared The Gospel that The Holy Spirit snatched Philip away. Does it have something to do with Popular / pop psychology? (Also, as an Interesting Side Note: (Acts 8:26-40) narrative gives credibility to supporters of Short-term Christian missionary work because some Short-term Christian missionary work critics complain that short-term missionary work does Not allow Christian missionaries enough time to gradually develop a strong relationship with NonChristian people who need the Gospel.)

Hello, do you know the Great Commission is completed at the very end of the Great Tribulation. The only reason the Antichrist seems to be tolerated is to exploit his power to unify world media under one voice and to channel the Gospel through it to all tongues and nationalities. (Rev. 15:2) Souls are still being saved during the rein of the Antichrist (Rev. 11:7) The preaching of the Gospel continues during the Great Tribulation. (Rev. 11:9-10) The testimony of the Two Witnesses is enhanced by the Antichrist's unified global media. The Gospel will finally cover the earth in the end and the Antichrist usefulness will be no more. This is the 'end' spoken of in Matthew 24:14

Hey everyone! My name is Jeremy, and I'm posting this because I want to ask for prayer, spiritual guidance, or any kind of support I may be able to receive. For years I've used the tools that the Lord has given me to build my own kingdom. I've been a freelance graphic designer, I've worked as a music composer for film and video games, I've pursued a career as a singer/songwriter, I've done photography, I've written and published poetry and articles, and I've showcased my work through video production and editing. Yet, much like the servant who hid his talent in the ground, I too have been irresponsible, and my master is coming home soon. The Lord had impressed heavily upon my heart that the things he's given me are not for me, but for Him and for His bride. I've spent much time in prayer, in the Word, and in fellowship with other brothers in Christ regarding this, and have continued to hear the Lord say to drop everything here in California, and help out in the mission field. As radical as it seems, I am quite excited to see what the Lord has planned. I am partnering with missions organizations who will send me to various sites around the world, where I will be using my writing, photography, video production, music production, and graphic design, to raise awareness and support for the missionaries and humanitarian workers abroad. I will spend some time at various mission locations, immerse myself in the environment by physically involving myself with their projects, and document everything through photos, video, and interviews. When finished with a particular mission site, I will produce film documentaries, photos, and articles to tell the untold story about the missionaries there, and the people they help. The media will be used to raise awareness and financial support for these missionaries, by presenting it to their supporters back home, and also to gain new supporters through social media. Thank you dearly. Your brother, Jeremy
