Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
There is no direct way given in the Bible to tell exactly where the Rapture of the Church in to the above words of Jesus. He is speaking exclusively to the Jews and Israel, and NOT to the Church. These words were given before his death and resurrection, before he changed the plan to the preaching of the Gospel to the whole world, and before the teaching by the Apostle Paul on the Rapture of the Church.
So, we Bible believers who are the Bride of Christ dare not use the text in Matthew above to try to predict or prophecy what God is doing now, or what will come next. There is one verse above though which gets my attention:
A beginning is followed by a consummation. Just before an airliner takes off, it sits at the end of the runway with the brakes locked. Then, the pilot puts the engines into full throttle, and finally, he lets the brakes go after the engines are roaring at top power.
Are planet earth's prophetic engines roaring? Are the brakes locked, and is the Divine Pilot about to let off the brakes that withhold the worst hour in world history, the Apocalypse of The Revelation?
Lest I be accused of being overly dramatic, watch Jason A's video for this week::
As I wrote this blog post, Hurricane is bearing down on New York City, and in the Atlantic, Lee seems to soon be the name given to the next hurricane, and another cyclonic monster low has formed off the coast of Africa.
The cost of rebuilding areas of Texas is horrendous, and the oil refineries are included in that cost. The losses to the 100 plus fires in the Western and Mid-western US states is beyond calculation. Then again, the 8.2 earthquake in Mexico must be a huge threat to that nation's economies. One third of Bangladesh under water. What will that cost to rebuild that nation? The world is looking down the barrel of a Divine hold up. God seems to be saying, "Hand me your wallet, or repent."
All that is needed next to cause total chaos is for an epidemic to break out due to all the immigrants allowed to flow from the Middle East and the Tropics into Europe and America. Tropical diseases are already way up in Europe. West Nile Virus is popping up all over Europe and the USA. I am not a prophet, but my experience in Africa tells me that when you flood a nation with refugees, an epidemic is just around the corner.
The answer to the invitation of God to repent is that Europe is kissing the posterior of Allah, and the American Black community, with the help of Democrat Party leaders, are rioting and burning. Hate is the only emotion in the hearts of many of the world's people. Watch for this hate to soon turn against Christians.
The next words of Jesus after verse 9 above?????
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Most of you who read this post will now laugh and mock at the possibility that God is moving into the world in a special way. That is just fine. But, you cannot say someone did not warn you. You read the words of Jesus from 2000 years ago right here. You no longer have any excuse for dropping your jaw and yelling "WTF." You now KNOW what, and who, is moving.
