Excerpt From Newsletter
Devout “Christians” all around you are talking about the Return of Jesus Christ as though that were a good thing for everyone, aren’t they? Well, folks, I’m here to tell it bodes nothing good for those who aren’t striving to accomplish the things mentioned in The Imitation of Christ. One of those devout “Christians” could well be you. You can deny that if you care to.
That would only prove you haven’t read your Bible as closely as you should have. Jesus said this:
“Not everyone who says to Me, ’Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, ’Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ’I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’”
(Matthew 7:21–23)
Now either Jesus was just kidding around or He has just told us there are going to be some devoutly religious types who get so caught up in Satan’s “lying signs and wonders” that they neglect to pay attention to the things that God considers most valuable. So if you have ever had a valid born-again experience with God, you had best get on with doing what you understood God expected you to do when you first repented. If you don’t know what that is, the chances are you were never “born again” in the first place. Therefore, I heartily recommend that you contemplate what Jesus said in the passage above. He could well have been talking about you. The Truth is, folks, we are plunging headlong into the most incredible time human history has ever known. The terrible storms that will occur before the End are only just now beginning. Not only will those storms become more intense, they will also occur more frequently. The sheer magnitude of the human suffering that occurs over the next several years will provide “Christians” ample opportunity to view God’s wrath up close and firsthand. Yet most will never consider that those things are intended to make them focus on their own desperate circumstances. Instead, the hilarity and outrageous things that even now masquerade as Christianity will become more ridiculous as Satan mocks God by inciting people to do all sorts of idiotic things in the name of Christ.
