Well written, Michael, and right on cue. The birth pangs are intensifying, and the soon coming catching away will most definitely catch the world completely off guard and completely unprepared. Calling all saints: Make sure you have oil in your lamps full and your wicks are trimmed. It won't be much longer....

Paul wrote, regarding the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and the true Church being gathered to Him. He clearly taught over and over again, that two things must happen first before that event happens. he said don't be deceived, for the Gathering of the Church will not come until,

1. The great apostasy, (Greek Apostasia- literately means to abandon something you once believed in. Jesus made reference to this about preparing His bride to be spotless and clean. Jesus told a parable about the tares in the wheat - Matt:13:24-30. That this will not happen until the end comes. Tares look like wheat early on, but on the threshing floor of persecution will the separation occur.

2. the man of lawlessness comes on the scene claiming to be the second coming of Christ, Matt 24:23-24 by taking his seat in the temple of God (third temple), displaying himself as being God. Jesus predicted Israel will embrace another imitation/substitute Messiah, John 5:43.This is the guy who causes the great Apostasia. As God used Satan to sift Job, God will use the man of sin to sift His true Church. Are you ready?

I'm 74, Ive been very close to death twice, both were truly miraculous that I did not die. God has called us, and me to be about His business when he returns, not waiting for Scott to beam me up. God is doing everything you want to escape. In faith we are to labor and persevere in these trials not looking for a way out.

There was a hurricane brewing in the Pacific that dampened the tsunami that should have hit Hawaii. I see that as divine intervention.

This is exactly a description of not judgement but birth pangs, where the labor pains are getting more severe and closer together. An opportunity for the world to believe and repent

We must remember there is a huge difference between the church experiencing persecution even unto death, and the judgements of God on the earth. The church has been experiencing this Stephen was martyred and that will continue. Even today more Christians are being persecuted for their faith more than ever before, and our turn in America is coming. If you think were getting out of here before it gets really bad, tell that to the Christians in China when Mao came to power, or all the suffering, even onto death under Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism even to this very day.

The only thing the evil one can do to the true Saints is kill them. Jesus said we are not to fear that.

Luke 12:4-5. In fact suffering and dying for the Gospel is a good thing in the eyes of Christ.

Paul wrote to the Philippians; in no way be alarmed by your opponents—which is a sign of destruction for them, but of salvation for you, and this too, from God. For to you it has been granted for Christ’s sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer on His behalf,

In Acts 5 the Apostles praised God, that God considered them worthy to suffer for His sake and rejoiced over the fact they were severely beaten for His sake

Follow the bouncing ball. CrowdStrike says Russia, Russia, Russia. When the meta data on the WiliLeaked emails says it was downloaded too fast to be hacked over Algore’s inner netz. It had to be done in person onto a CD Rom or USB drive. By someone like…maybe Seth Rich.

To single point of Failure.
