jc 49 seems to have an ability to get his point across without making himself above everybody else.

If you had excluded all the errogant remarks, you may not have met so much flack

Mind I too have been given a burden for the church in America particularly because I have seen great evil come into the body of Christ in the past 46 years of my christian walk. Church's that were on fire for God, now want God to be on fire for them. It is called the prosperity doctrine.

When I got saved Holiness was preached, some in my own family have believed that God has changed and sort of winks at his own Holy laws, because repentance is no longer preached in the church.

When I was saved there was a hell to shun, as much as there was a heaven to gain. That is not taught anymore. I was taught that God expected something from me, repentance! Now the church is being taught that we are to expect from God, and we have made god into our own magic little genie..say the right thing and poof you get a new car.

God is a God of prosperity, however seek his kingdom first and HIS righteousness and all these things shall be added onto you. Yet the church is seeking things.

One thing about the post though if you break them into smaller post with larger, or even bold type it would be easier to read.

I think you will find that most people on this board has the same burdens as you do.

Most post that I have read are people who God is dealing with, he does know how to speak to his children.

Now to answer the original topic. The other day for the first time, I watched videos of the tsunami.

One of the video's was horrifying. A man stood on the shore watching the wave come without moving, as if there was no danger. Others in the background pointing it out with laughter as it came closer to the shore. All seemed to see it, but for some reason, they didn't see the danger.

Our world is much like that, I think it has something to do with human nature, we can be in great danger, but are incredulous that something could really be a danger to us.

I once had an experience with a car jacker, we were at the end of our street at a stop sign, my husband was driving. A man jerked the passenger door open grabbed my arm and said "I'm sorry folks, but I am going to take this car." I was indignant I said no your not as I held onto the panic bar overhead with my left hand and told my husband to go. He did.

The man held onto my right arm running alongside the car, until he lost his balance, and fell under the wheel breaking his foot. We went and called the police. At no time was I frightened, in fact it was like I was watching it, and it wasn't real. He did some damage to my shoulder, but not once did I feel that I was going to let him pull me from that car. I was still angry when the police arrived that someone would be as stupid as demanding MY car.

It wasn't until much later that I saw the danger my husband and I had been in. If I had let go, and he pushed my husband from under the wheel, or hit him in the head with the rock he was carrying in a sack. I would have never forgiven myself. If he had not had to run so fast holding on with one hand, not being able to swing that sack to hit me in the head. I would have had more than a damaged shoulder, what if he had not had a rock but a gun?

Yet even thinking back on this situation, I would still get angry, and it would have seemed preposterous for someone to come up and try to pull me out of my car with the words "sorry folks but I am going to take this car."

I had a friend who was nearly raped by Ted Bundy, and she did something similar, she laughed at him, loudly! Threw him so completely off guard he ran. Maybe it is human nature not to see the danger.

Yes sister,

it is human nature not to see the danger.....but when it comes at the "believers" not able or NOT WILLING to discern the TIME in which we are living it is TRAGIC!

Since 9/11 a can of worms has been open.....if we start seeing all the disaster/s in every facet of life that happened since then it would take a BLIND a DEAF and a MUTE/DUMB( forgive my incorrect english,I am italian) not to see that THE END TIMES or THE TIME of THE END is here....approaching very very fast and even though we cannot know the day and the hour of HIS COMING we cannot use that as an excuse and brush it off like if all the happening is normal.

Peter says that SCOFFERS will be in the end time,lets see:

The Book of 2 Peter

Return to Index

Chapter 3

1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:

2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:

6

Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:

7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11

Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Isa 65:17, 66:22

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;

16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.

18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

And there you go.....I suspect that the coffers are in the "church" as well in the world...it is tragic...

I see a lot of "TRIBULATIONS SAINTS WANNABE" among the believers( they really have NO IDEA of what the time of JACOB'S TOUBLE is going to be...9/11 and the Tsunami and Iraq etc... it will look like a walk in the park in comparison to the HORRORS that will befall our planet in that time. A good study of the EGYPT PLAGUES and of THE WRATH of GOD in the O.T. might help!)

or I see a lot of" believers" saying that all that is happening is just like it happened in the past ( we had 2 world wars in the 20th century after all,didn't we?) forgetting to see THE STEPPING UP and THE INCREASE of EVIL and TERROR and the "natural"( ah ah ah ) events befalling us.....just like the pre/BIRTH PANGS of which JESUS talks in HIS PROPHETIC discourses in the synoptics!

Well,DENIAL will NOT change GOD'S AGENDA...CHRIST IS COMING,first FOR HIS PEOPLE ( RAPTURE) THEN WITH HIS PEOPLE ...firts the meeting IN THE AIR THEN the DESCENT ON THE MOUNT of OLIVES!!!

YES YES YES YES YES THE RAPTURE IS PRETRIBULATIONAL....please I BEG ALL ON THIS WORTHY BOARDS TO OPEN their EYES and PREPARE because HE IS COMING SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNN and it is going to catch a lot of people UNAWARE ,cause they love THIS LIFE TOO MUCH and HIS APPEARING TOO LITTLE!

SHALOM and MARANATHA and please WATCH and PRAY and PRAY for me too( my name is ROBERTO) thanks a zillion,MARANATHA!!!

I have to agree with you Roberta.

I watched those towers fall on 9/11 and for more than 6 months if anyone even mentioned it I would begin weeping. I still weep, if I see the site, or think about the horror of that day. But more I get angry at all we have lost since I grew up in this country.

Now imagine watching 2 billion people die from war during the tribulation. Then 2 billion more from disease and terror during that time. Scriptures tell us that 1/2 the worlds population will be wiped out in 7 short years, and if the days were not shortened no flesh would be saved.

It is an unimaginable horror. Nothing about it is going to be fun and games.

I heard a preacher once say he couldn't wait for judgement, as if he was going to enjoy watching people go to hell for eternity. This makes me want to try harder to reach more people, rather than take an see I told you so type of stance. There will be nothing gratifying seeing any of this.

Praise God for people like you. With all of this we can still say with John

Even so Lord Jesus come.

Actually, Dakota....I think "you rock!" You go, girlfriend!

I wish I had your courage...it's an inspiration to hold on to what is good and not let go....

People have always thought that they were living in the "End Times". People have always looked for "signs" that God was coming back and that the Great Tribulation was going to begin.

I, however, do not believe that "judgment" is coming soon. I doubt that I'll see it in this time, and I think that God will come when it is time for Him to come, and not when some people believe that the conditions laid out in the bible predicting the era that He will come in, believe He will come.... *shrug* We won't ever know, though, until it happens.
