You don't have to believe me, Mike, just read your Bible and and ask God to reveal the truth to you through the teachings of His Word and His Holy Spirit! I didn't post what I wrote just to cause troubles or worries, I posted it to warn what is coming and I believe soon (but that's my thinking) ! I could post about the love and good things of our blessed, heavenly Father but a lost and sinful nation and world needs to hear what will and is happening because of turning away from worshipping Him, as the One and Only God, in Spirit and in truth!
Read the Book of Jude which is very short and just before the Book of Revelation! Jude 17-25 KJV....Thompson Chain
17: But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18: How that they told you there shall be mockers in the last time (before the end of the age), who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19: These be they who separate themselves , sensual, having not the Spirit,
20: But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost (utterance and groans that you don't know but God does),
21: Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
22: And of some have compassion, making a difference;
23: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24. Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,
25. To the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen!
The Bible does say, if we don't warn those who are heading into the Lake of Fire because of their unforgiven sins when we have the opportunity, then their blood will be upon us and since my sins have been repented of and washed away by Jesus' precious blood, I do not want the blood of lost sinners on me when I die and have to face God by not doing what he had appointed me to do by serving Him!
Yes, God is love but He's also a God of wrath and whosoever doesn't accept Him as Lord and Savior by not repenting and believing in Him will face His judgement and be cast out into outer darkness where there is weeping and the gnashing of teeth! Why would anyone spend eternity in such a horrible hot and dark place crying out for just one drop of water to cool their burning tongue???
I love my neighbor as I love myself and I sure wouldn't want to go into tormenting fire nor would I want their lost soul to be cast there either!
Don't like the truth, then blame God and not me, for it is in His Word of Life and Jesus is the Living Word! May God have mercy upon us all!
Amen!
God Bless!
