If you’re not familiar with the elect, it is their job to be Watchmans like a canary in the coal mine. We have to be familiar with current events and educated in manipulation techniques. We have to be able to walk with the enemy and their camp and not let it corrupt us like a police working undercover
I believe that if people can see that the Bible lines up to current events, it will then show the world that God is real and he’s giving you one last chance to come around. It is our job at the elect a be the teacher and help those that seem lost because God does not want us to leave anybody behind, although we know most won’t make it.
All I'm saying my friend, is that believers from the beginning have been persecuted for their faith and that continues until judgement day.
To know our Savior that way, to love those who don't love us, was Pauls' desire,
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; Phl.3:10
He wanted to experience the love Jesus had.....for people who tortured him.
He didn't want to be tortured to death, but Paul did want to genuinely respond with the love of Christ toward anyone who would abuse him. That's just simply the gospel.....Christ (God), withholding his wrath against people who are committing terrible sins against him.
But the point I wanted you to consider, is that Jesus faced the beast (Rome) and conquered it. And believers from every generation are like our Lord, because being threatened with harm doesn't matter what year it occured in.
