Coming Persecution & Judgment

"The end goal is to get everybody chipped, to control the whole society, to have the bankers and the elite people control the world" Nick Rockefeller

There is a common misconception that Christians in the World will be spared the troubles of the 7 year Tribulation Period due to the Rapture. The timing of the Rapture is key to this belief. A Pre-Tribulation Rapture would remove the Believers from the world in advance of the 7 year time of trouble as foretold by the Prophets. A Mid-Tribulation Rapture would allow the Christians to experience the first 3 1/2 years of Jacob's Trouble and the trouble which will come upon the entire world.

I think that the True Church of G_d needs to properly differentiate between the Judgment/Wrath of G_d and the Persecution of the True Church by satan. Since the late 1700's Europe and America has been free of the murder of Believers by the State or Established Church (i.e. Catholic, and State Churches). We have been allowed to live and prosper materially from that point until this day. The environment has not degraded to the point of being jailed for Preaching the Gospel. Because we are self-absorbed we refuse to pay attention to the rest of the World. In the Middle-East, Africa, and Asia, thousands of Christians each year are Martyred for their Testimony by the Islamist, Hindi, and Animist. In India recently a pastor and his wife was burned alive because they had shared the Gospel and led a number of Hindi's to Christ. Because we are the Church of Laodicea we chose to concentrated on our own desires and needs instead of obeying our Master, Yeshua. The time is soon approaching when the Tares have to be separated from the Grain. I believe the Mark of the Beast is the event which will call out those who are Goats from those who are Sheep.

During the Cold War in Romania, two Romanian Soldiers burst into a small church service with Guns at the ready. They commanded all those who were not believers in Jesus to leave the Church because they were going to execute all who were. After a number filed out of the church they closed the door. Those who remained prepared for their martydom. The soldiers put down their guns and explained that they were believers and did not wish to Worship G_d in the presence of non-believers.

The day is quickly approaching when we, the Laodicean Church, shall have to make that choice. How will you choose? Whom will you choose?

G_d's coming Judgments are intended for the unbelieving world, including those who are in the Church. As G_d rescued Noah, Lot, Daniel/Jeremiah/Ezekial, and the Early Church from HIS judgments on the World/Jerusalem, so will HE do the same for True Believers.

For those "Christians" which scoff at this, I say to you don't worry about these things. You will be excluded from the Persecution which will cover the True Church. The World/satan has no reason to persecute you. You are not salt and you shed forth no light. You are not a threat to their system.

But mark my words.... We will have troubles. We will be persecuted. We will suffer for HIS name. As HE suffered so shall we. It is good that G_d crush us so that Yeshua can live through us. Take up your Cross and Follow HIM. Do not Fear but hold unto your Hope. The day of our Redemption is drawing near.
