How many times in your life have you asked the “age old” question…WHY?
Why is this happening to me? Why is this happening to my child?
Why didn’t I get the job instead of this guy? And the list goes on…
Why do Christians suffer? (Except when then bring it on themselves through bad choices?)
Let’s find out…
The most talked about part of prophecy in the book of Revelation has been the number of a man.
The number is “666.” The “number or his name” will be worn by every man and woman during this part of the great tribulation. (Except for those who refuse to take it.) Without it, you won’t be able to buy your food, clothing or pay bills. (Your children will starve without baby milk, food and shelter.) You won’t be able to sell your car, home or anything else you need for income. Revelation 13:16-17, “He required everyone–great and small, rich and poor, slave and free–to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead. And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name”
If you’re reading and listening too this now, (September 2009), there is still time for you to refuse the “mark” of the beast. If you’re reading this during the time you’re required to take this mark, that means you’re in the great tribulation period and must NOT take the mark.
It probably means you know scripture and understand that if you take this “mark,” you will be eternally separated from God, heaven and those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior.You will probably be killed for your faith in Christ and your refusal to take the “mark” of the beast.
Revelation 14:9, “Then a third angel followed them, shouting, “Anyone who worships the beast and his statue or who accepts his mark on the forehead or the hand must drink the wine of God’s wrath. It is poured out undiluted into God’s cup of wrath. And they will be tormented with fire and burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and the Lamb.”
“Let this encourage God’s holy people to endure persecution patiently and remain firm to the end, obeying his commands and trusting in Jesus.”
I received a letter this past week that really disturbed me. I started thinking about the many other people that think about God in the same way…
Is he like this dear lady wrote, “I do love God, but I have learned through the years, he can also be cruel. Floods, fires, and wiping out innocent children.”"If God takes my child, I will have a very hard time believing in a merciful forgiving God who would allow children to die so horribly while he watches.”
What do you think about God?
Posted in Your Enemy by kingdomchild on August 22nd, 2009 What is sin? Let me tell you what it’s not.
Several years ago, there was a comedian whose famous line was, “The devil made me do it!”
Flip Wilson didn’t know there’s more truth to that classic line than he realized.
Spiritual truths are not as obvious to us because they are much deeper and more powerful than what we see with our natural eyes in this world. Yet, they are very real.
Sin is the ONLY thing that will seperate a good person from God, for eternity. It’s the “unholy” part of the curse on man, since Adam and Eve, and it can only be broken when Jesus’ gift of salvation has finally been received.
Posted in Life by kingdomchild on August 14th, 2009 The tragic news came to me in an email from my sister this past Thursday morning… maybe she was too heart broken to use the phone…
Her daughters husband had been killed in a car crash. Only in his 30’s, two children, a wife and many loving family members all devastated.
Was he ready to face eternity? Sadly, we’re not sure… There’s no way to know because up to the last week of his life here on earth, my sister could not say with certainty. And it is with “certainty,” that we must all be sure.
Do you know what the “biggest” tragedy is?
We watch a comedian we like or singer and we say, “I really love him.” “I really love her.”
But all we really are saying is that “we like the way they perform” or the talent they have for doing something well…
We can’t really “love” anyone… we don’t really know.
That’s especially true of saying “we love God.”
What about when the circumstances of our lives take a direction we despise? What about when the wheels are coming off our cart? And as we say, “That really sucks!”
In this chapter we see a vision of the adversarial relationship the devil has with God. The devil hates God, His people and His saints. (All those who love Jesus)
But, the time finally has come for the devil and his angels (1/3 of the angelic host) to be “cast out” of heaven and never again allowed back in to that glorious position. The problem though, is that, they are on the earth to create great sorrow.
God’s two witnesses start their earthly ministry for the very end of all things on earth. Amazingly, the people of the earth have become so ungodly in their lifestyle and mindset, they actually cheer and create a new holiday with the death of the men who preached the Gospel in this last time.
The Apostle John sees more revelations of the future events that will unfold in the great tribulation period. More judgements are unleashed against the people of the earth as they continue to reject God and His Son and continue to live a life of deliberate rebellion.
God’s time for the end has come. He waits no longer.
Sex, seduction, infidelity, drama, hero, triumph, defeat, attempted murder, slavery trafficking, faithfulness in the face of temptation…
These are a few of the elements of this real life drama that serves to teach us about real life!
We all suffer for one of two reasons: Doing wrong or doing right.
The choice belongs to us!
