What a wake up call, even for me. Yes, many seem to think that God will 'rapture' them out before it all gets too bad, and I've always thought, Well He didn't do anything for 6 million Jews, and many good people before and after the war, why the heck do you think you're special enough to be saved from the pain in this world. <br /><br />We live in a fallen world, look around us, we are living in a world that 'man' has created.. Yes yes, yes... those who Believe, and OBEY will have Eternal life, but like the sun that rises and falls on both the good and the bad, so too will the 'good' suffer in this fallen world. Not because God doesn't care, but rather because people will do what they want to do and not listen to God or live according to His ways. I find it incredibly arrogant how many theologians can not see and will not teach God's simple truth. <br /><br />I've spent years in Bible college asking so many questions to the so called wise lecturers, and I've often wondered why they can't see or why they hadn't asked those same questions that Christendom has indoctrinated so many with. Surely God didn't see me as anything special to tell His secrets too, it's all written if one will only be willing to learn without bias or arrogance. Why can't they see, for its so clearly written again and again.. yet they justify it and call me a fool..<br /><br />Anyway, I can't worry about them any longer... i only worry for my children, that they will not get caught up in the lie of the world. Be blessed Carmen for reminding me of His truth today.Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998146626031186940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193745359560427451.post-48666021700503613352020-09-26T11:49:00.924-07:002020-09-26T11:49:00.924-07:00AMEIN to that! Unfortunately, it won't happen ...AMEIN to that! Unfortunately, it won't happen because most aren't into God and His Word. I'm sad to see that even most Messianic and Hebrew Roots adherents are NOT bothering to heed the plain, in-your-face warning signs He's been giving us today. Instead of hunkering down and preparing, I see them sitting around on Facebook, telling each other stuff like, "Gawd's in control, and HE won't allow HIS people to suffer. We're safe under his wings." <br /><br />Yeah, tell that to a Mom who has just lost her innocent little baby (who has never yet even KNOWN sin, let alone, PERPETRATED sin!) to cancer, AIDS, flu, measles, etc., or even salmonella or e coli poisoning from improperly prepared processed baby foods.... <br /><br />Did God abandon that little innocent who has never yet sinned ... while He plans on PROTECTING some holier-than-thou who's sinned throughout their entire life, but feels "safe" because they now "believe in Jesus", and simply BELIEVE God will protect them from the earthquake that's swallowing every house in their neighborhood, just because they "trust in God?"<br /><br /> Apparently, these holier-than-thous view ONLY themselves as "God's people," who will be covered in safety while everyone else around will die in coming pandemics, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, fires, floods and every other kind of disaster. That's NOT how it works! What true Believers in YHWH/Yeshua/Torah are protected from is "eternal DEATH." <br /><br />Believing in YHWH and His Divine Messiah and LIVING according to HIS Divine Instructions guarantees us "eternal LIFE." NOT eternal life in this nasty "earthsuit"; but life with YHWH in HIS Realm, in HIS Presence... <br /><br />Those haters, rioters, looters and all ungodly hypocrites and pretenders who are behaving carnally, instead of doing things according to YHWH's Torah, are hosed. Plain and simple. Scripture says so. <br /><br />Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. (ESV)<br /><br />Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”<br /><br />Isaiah 46:9 "Remember things that happened at the beginning, long ago - that I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me. 10 At the beginning I announce the end, proclaim in advance things not yet done; and I say that my plan will hold, I will do everything I please to do. (CJB)<br /><br />Deuteronomy 30: 19 “I have called the heavens and the earth as witnesses today against you: I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore you shall choose life, so that you live, both you and your seed, 20 to love יהוהyour Elohim, to obey His voice, and to cling to Him – for He is your life and the length of your days – to dwell in the land which יהוה swore to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give them.” (ISR)<br /><br />See also Ecclesiastes 9:1-18<br />Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998146626031186940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193745359560427451.post-74094207879283177842020-09-26T08:32:48.363-07:002020-09-26T08:32:48.363-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998146626031186940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193745359560427451.post-9034186617225765062020-09-26T02:58:43.822-07:002020-09-26T02:58:43.822-07:00I wish the looters, rioters, race baiters, etc. of...I wish the looters, rioters, race baiters, etc. of our world would stop and focus on YHWH and learn what our Creator, Redeemer and King has to say about their absurd behavior and lifestyle.
