I truly believe that we will see this take place in our life-time. And then I think about the words written in Malachi, and think of what that would look like: Malachi 3:5 And I will come near you for judgment; I will be a swift witness Against sorcerers, Against adulterers, Against perjurers, Against those who exploit wage earners and widows and orphans, And against those who turn away an alien-- Because they do not fear Me," Says the Lord of hosts. 6 "For I am the Lord, I do not change; Therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob. <span style=font-size:13pt;line-height:100%'>15 So now we call the proud blessed, For those who do wickedness are raised up; They even tempt God and go free.' " 16 Then those who feared the Lord spoke to one another, And the Lord listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear the Lord And who meditate on His name. 17 "They shall be Mine," says the Lord of hosts, "On the day that I make them My jewels. And I will spare them As a man spares his own son who serves him." 18 Then you shall again discern Between the righteous and the wicked, Between one who serves God And one who does not serve Him.</span> I believe these Words to be true! In His Love, Suzanne Matthew 7: 21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. 24Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. In agreement with the above scriptures, we see judgment falling on the house of God first at the rapture event where those that hear His Sayings and do them, are building on that faith and that relationship with Christ as trust is the basis of all relationship in which one gets to know Christ at His Word and serve Him... whereas those that do not hear Him, nor apply His sayings to build on that faith, wind up serving something else in His name in which men can boast. Since no flesh shall glory in His Presence and all those that glory shall glory in the Lord, we can see why Jesus' name is above every other name to the glory of God.

The ref. from Prov. 8:13, 3:7, and 23:17 I feel are really what the fear of God is. Which is what can happen to us if we reject God's love and wisom, and flee fromit or turn our backs on it. It's like a child that is spanked or disciplined for an infraction, the next time the child thinks of doing that infraction, they'll stop and remember the punishment and refrain from doing that deed. Once the child realizes that thier life is better for it, they remember the joy of obiedience, but the fear of the penalty from doing wrong is now engrained into there mind and hearts and they will avoid doing other wrong deeds. This may only be a partial view as we are all still learning the things of our preciouse Lord, we have a long way to go yet. With Jesus love, Brother Bill C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I am not out in the work force any longer, I have a husband who must go out and contend with these things, and I see him be so pained over them, just as you are. Just stay the course, because God is good!!! Thank you for sharing JamiLea! There is nothing that thrills my soul as much as hearing of someone who is moved by God's Word, and BELIEVES IT!!! It is the essence of what makes us sisters in Christ! I love you too. You are in many of my prayers. In His Love, Suzanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we have come to that "perfect love" it is we have come to experience His love through our surrender, which is what He requires of us. If we have complied whit His will we know that His mercy rejoices against judgment . . . but we dare not tempt Him, knowing He will not be mocked. Still, His mercy amazes me and is truly as high as the heavens. Lu 12:5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him. 2Co 5:11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. Heb 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Jude 1:23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
