Ron, a BIG AMEN to your article about
“BEING READY”!! http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/aug2015/ronr89-2.htm
I’ve read it before some time back at
your site & even printed it out (hope you don’t mind,
in fact, you do say to please forward…) Though WHEW,
everyone I dare might send it to would get all
DEFENSIVE!!! In fact, “news flash” ~ I’m the
idiot of the family again, my MIL won’t speak to me
(again)…. They’re all RCC & do not believe in this
“rapture business”!!.... Ah well, I did my
job, now it’s up to them during the Tribulation…..
And from the prayer at the bottom of
your article, QUOTE: “Show me what I need to do to
BE READY and then give me the power to act upon that which
you show me to do. Draw me away from the world and
closer to you every day. Use me in whatever way you
can to help others who may not be ready for your Return.”
/END quote
AMEN to this, too!!!!!! I
especially like: Draw me away from the world
and closer to you every day.
Cares of this world ~ even if it’s
“something good & wholesome” ~ yet if it’s taking our
eyes off the Lord, then it’s NOT a good thing!! (Eve
thought the fruit “was good” too!! And
PLEASANT to the eyes….)
Cares of this world that can prevent
one from going in the rapture, thus the reason I like this
site I mentioned last week: www.ChristianitynotChurchianity.blogspot.com
He bases his whole site on Luke 21:36
BTW, as you might imagine, people took
your article apart on other message boards….. defensively
claiming with indignation (and yes, even what I perceive
to be WHINING) that “I AM going in the rapture” because
I’m a born again Christian & Jesus did it all for me
& such & so on. YES, Jesus did do it
all as far as salvation!!! However, again, as
you also reminded everyone Ron, about Luke 21 ~ it
certainly was not put in the Bible for us to neglect or
stomp on or to so arrogantly say, “well, I AM going
regardless”…… might such an arrogant attitude possibly
even keep one from the rapture?? The rapture is a
reward for those who are READY. Period. End of
story. It’s in the Bible.
Great article.
I’m not totally sure the Tribulation
starts on Nov. 11th ~ it could very well start
during the Jewish feast days next month…. But
regardless, we know it will be soon. Rapture
First though!!
I rather imagine that the AntiChrist
to-be is having a “field day” watching all the runners for
the U.S. Presidential election (not even held till NEXT
fall) My opinion is the rapture will happen
long before then due to the boldness of all the signs.
Watching and praying to be counted
worthy here!! Nothing I take lightly. We were
TOLD to PRAY for this very thing!
We may not be told SPECIFICALLY
other things in our lives to pray for, yet isn’t it
interesting for THIS specific thing, we are told TO PRAY *
to be accounted worthy * to escape!
What part of that do we not understand?
Amen!
