I speak it low and often. I try to spread the word.
They hear but they don't listen, continue undisturbed.
The message is a fire burning up inside me
and though I wish it did...this fire doesn't spread.
Instead it's like a lit fuse, and I'm a powder keg.
The warnings loud and clear, you didn't want to hear
The judgments coming faster, the end so very near.
And when it all collapses, just like the crackpots said
so shocked to see it's over, that we have reached the end.
They act like I'm infected, and it may be I am
But I have been awakened, and really understand.
I'll threaten your foundations, all matter-of-fact
and sometimes you'll receive it, but mostly you'll react.
And some of you will hate me, and talk behind my back
cuz though I'm mostly even, sometimes I'm known to snap
I know that my vibration is either high or low
a seer or just crazy, there is no middle road
And all that I have suffered, it seems without reward
could not be for a lie, but even still I am ignored.
From everything I've studied, the end seems close at hand
How I wish I didn't see this, and couldn't understand.
The Danger of a "Conservative" Bible.

My dear Young Brother,
I know you don't really wish you didn't see this or couldn't understand what is going on in the world right very now, although I understand your frustration completely. It is like being given a gift that feels more like a curse. Because we are not of this world. But it is a gift just the same.
People are walking around my office today having conversations about their rival baseball teams, and as you know I am surrounded by 'Christians' as I work in a church. What we are supposed to do with this gift is not fully revealed yet; thus the frustration. You keep that oil burning and that fire stoked that God is kindling in you because it is for a reason, and I too, believe that reason is going to be revealed soon or else His elect will not survive. I don't believe Jesus is telling us just about physical survival here but spiritual survival as well. This is a difficult time for those faithful to Him whom He has shown these truths to. He is with us and will guide us according to His perfect timing and we accept His will in all things.
You may not feel a middle road, but I see a middle road in your testimony. And we must always remember that this is for God's glory, never ours for having been given this gift of prophecy.
Patient endurance, my young brother. We will patiently endure and we will prevail. He will raise us up and your fire will be heard. Maybe the Lord is bottling us up for a time so we will explode when the time finally arrives. We are going to be His fire that burns the earth up with His word. Just imagine not being a part of that...your fire extinguished and burnt out. You would prefer this even less than your cries not being heeded. It is all for a reason. We shall all understand everything, even this (why people do not heed our warnings and can be so casual even with the signs all around them) and keep our love and faith grounded in the only thing we desire - our Lord.
You hang in there because we simply must.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
Thank you, for your encouragement, and even your light rebuke. You have grown spiritually so much since we first met. Growing is painful, but we all need it. It's easy to resist, but so much better to embrace.
I am amazed at your insight about our spiritual survival...having never considered that verse as you have shared...it makes perfect sense, and there are other scriptures that confirm it. In Daniel 7, the enemy seeks to "wear out the saints".
Praise the Lord who has given us eyes to see, and the shared perspective of this strange calling. Every word of encouragement offers the strength to take one more step forward. We need each other for our survival, as much as we need Christ, and that is how it is meant to be.
Young Brother,
You have been given a gift. It is a blessing and I know at times it might seem frustrating that people don't want to hear the message but be gentle on yourself and others. People have been programmed to believe this country has been blessed by God and they are under the illusion that our system is the light of the world.
It is just as when Jesus walked the earth and gathered his apostles and followers:
Luke 10:21 - 10:24
At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.
"All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."
Then he turned to his disciples and said privately, "Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it."
In Christ Love
The majority of people are able to carry on with their everyday life currently thus their falsely perceived comfortableness but as soon as this is removed by whatever, many people are going to fall and we will have the opportunity to be their helping hand up for our Savior's glory. Much as we are trying to do now, it will be tenfold and it is going to be amazing.
Thanks for sharing Daniel's verse, and the poem..it's beautiful. Your kind words mean a lot.
So true, it is much, much better to embrace this gift. Be patient with yourself and take some rest in Him; He does not want you to be weary for this battle, but as you said He works everything for the good and I know for certain that this will be also and make you stronger.
Great verses Sandra...blessed by having the Son in my eyes from you again; I love the Son in my eyes. I know, I know, it is the Lord using you, but you are willingly letting Him use you and this is how we bless each other. I believe it is good to say so.
Speaking of our eyes, I heard on the INN World Report today that at least 50 people have lost their site by starring into the sun trying to see a silhouette of the Virgin Mary. That's all I heard. Oh, and then there's the one this week about a cheetoh that looks like Jesus being crucified. The world is a desperate place which makes me more thankful everyday for His people in this little bunch of His flock.
YB,
You are a faithful sevrnat my friend, and I thank you for your positive prescence in my life. Keep the faith as our brother Ali says so well.
The End as you call it has already happened. The dragon was thrown to earth 2000 years ago and it has been symbolically bound, but it has been released for a short time to gather the nations to war, Gog and Magog, to be destoryed by fire. The author of Revelation uses the symbols of the previous prophets to fortell the end of the reign of Satan and his antchrist. Do not despair, rejoice my friend. God's rule is coming soon, and it is and has been open to all and for all for a very long time. If others refuse to see, if they will not open their eyes and their minds, then they will perish in the flames. Remember, it is their choice.
I have been watching the films on the Dajal, antichrist at the following site and they are eye opening. Very informative and offer tools for educating oneself on the enemy we fight against
with our witness.

What a shame it will be
When the gay look at each other will glee
that they perish into hell
because no one wanted to tell
them about God's Word.
Isn't that just completely absurd?
Help to seek to save the lost before it's too late.
Dan,
You, therefore are inexcusable, you who judges another. For the very same things that you accuse others of doing, you also do!
If you have looked at another woman lustfully, if you have ever had sex before or outside of your marriage, you will be condemned. Because the measure that you are judging by is the letter of the law. You use the law as a measure to judge others? you will be judged by the law. If you would get off your high horse and use the spirit as a measure to judge others, you would be judged by the spirit. But because of your preoccupation/obsession with the law that none can obey, and the way that you devalue the blood of Christ by withholding salvation from homosexuals, you are preparing your own soul for destruction. Unless you repent, you will not be able to spend eternity with Jesus. Your spirit is foul. I am serious. Seek the Lord, while he may be found. He doesn't find your hatefulness amusing at all.
YB,
I am glad you said something because one of us is very confused about what the Bible says. Either we can all live and sin and still be saved or not. Can I sleep around on my wife without being an adulterer? Can someone still murder as long as he proclaims Christ?
Romans 6:15-16 "What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?"
You are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness?
I love you and homosexuals but to allow this to continue with out making it clear is criminal. I love you enough not to judge you but to warn you if you continue in sin you will perish. I am not judging I am lovingly rebuking you and your teachings. Gay people that turn away from that life style will be saved according to God's word. People that have gay orgies, or continue in that lifestyle of sin, while claiming they are Christians will not be saved. It doesn't matter what you believe what matters is the truth, something I thought you would want to strive for since God is truth. But hey I could be wrong. Am I?
