Many have preached about Jesus getting His bride ready for His coming.
I believe this judgment- to-restoration has already begun. Churches all over are losing members, others have no pastors to feed them, & many are closing. The funny thing is most churches don't want to talk about this.
Christians & leaders still don't see that judgment is upon them. Do not expect this judgment to skip us, neither expect it to be pretty.
During this time, some are repenting & some aren't, bringing a separation between the sheep & the goats.


Don't we see this "separation" today? The church I go to has split with several scattering out to other churches, while others aren't going anywhere.

There will be no great revival. In fact, the opposite is true: there will be a great falling away. Ironically, many are falling away and still "going to church". Some of the largest congregations are made up of the fallen.
The falling away has already begun, who knows how many years ago.
I agree totally with the last sentence. These 'largest' congregations are being filled up with the fallen away from the dying churches.

I don't really care what anyone has preached, or how many of them have preached it. If they can't show me clearly where God's word teaches it I don't believe them.

With God's standard of judgment starting first with the House of God, what else are we to expect before the great final judgment of the world??

Politicians will stop crafting messages that appeal to those in Christ. They will, instead, appeal to the congregations that preach a humanistic Jesus.

Those churches, because they will maintain their political advantage, will persecute the true believers who have left ("Come out of her my people") and think they are doing God a service at the same time.

Soon, there will be no tolerance for "Christians" on the world's stage. They will be marked as a liability to progress. This thinking will coalesce in the U.S. because of the corruption of the Republican and Conservative parties.

Two sons will clearly be seen: those in Adam who continue to live by sin and those in Christ who have given up their lives to live in Him. God will preserve Christ in the world.

This is just the beginning. Most of this is occurring now. It will only increase.

In Acts 2 Peter says:

"But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:" Acts 2:16-17

I don't know what is that difficult to understand about "this is that." He's talking about the outpouring of the Holy Spirit happening then and there.

In scripture, we see that the early Christians believed the times they lived in were the "last days." See Hebrews 1:1-2 for example:

"God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son,"
Nevertheless, the "wise" will indeed understand the signs of the times. And take the necessary actions and precautions and make the necessary adjustments. And the end time was a long way off evidently. Back then. But not anymore.

Act 1:6
When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Act 1:7
And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

I don't care how "wise" you are, you'll never be more wise or more clever than God's word. Show me the teaching or go away and don't waste my time. Those verses you posted say nothing about a great end-time revival or a great end-time harvest of souls.

there is no end times revival, quite the opposite. It says it will be like the times of Noah. He warned, they didn't listen and they drowned. I do not recall a water party beforehand. It is a teaching that is pleasing to hear but not accurate.

Those who have been given eyes to see are seeing it.
RA mentioned in #23 why he doesn't. We find relationship with the Lord when we come to Him in humility and contrition, not the pride and self seeking arrogance in post #23
His Own are a small group in each congregation, and even religion, remember how He judges the heart.

So how many of us has heard that in the last days there's going to come an end-time revival? Where then are the big meetings, the high powered evangelists, & the praise & worship ensambles?
When's it going to start?
Is it going to be world wide?
As close as we are to the coming of the Lord, you would think somebody would starting something by now.
I would like to get your thoughts about this before we look a little deeper into it. Thanks.
It could be there is no end time revival on a big scale, and it could be because it is the end time and the world has heard the Gospel for quite a while, and God is ready to end sin on earth.

The denominations would not come together with one mind set for there to be an end time revival, and Mormons, Jehovah's witnesses, Christian Science, Scientology, new age movement Christianity, and others for sure would not come together for fundamental truth.

Pro 30:11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
Pro 30:12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
Pro 30:13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
Pro 30:14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.

God told us of the last generation before He ends sin on earth which the children will not want to obey their parents, and they are pure in their own eyes but not washed from their filthiness, and highly selfish, highly arrogant, and they will heap money to themselves in a selfish, and arrogant fashion, and not care about the poor and needy.

Which we see today that millions of dollars, and billions of dollars is not enough for them, which this can only happen at the time of technology because it causes money to flow like a raging river, and people can reach out farther than their immediate area to make money.

This generation is the worse generation and worse than the generation that Jesus reached out to.

Mat 16:1 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
Mat 16:2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
Mat 16:3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
Mat 16:4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.

If the world cannot discern the times by now and believe the Bible, and they are a worse generation than back then shall a sign be given to the world by way of a revival on a massive scale.

Rev 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
Rev 22:8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
Rev 22:9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
Rev 22:10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
Rev 22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

Will a sign be given the world for let the person that is wicked be wicked still, and let the person that is holy be holy still, for the world has heard the Gospel, and the Bible long enough and if the world has not changed their mind by now to accept the truth then they will not.

And the world is going to rebel against God and the new age movement will pave the way.

The plan is already in motion and God is going to allow it to happen so He can end sin on earth.

So I do not believe a sign will be given the world and there will be a revival on a massive scale for God is going to allow the new age movement to deceive the world so He can end sin on Earth.

And that deception is the fallen angels deceiving all people who do not love the truth which the new age movement follows Lucifer believing he is a god, and an alien, that will help mankind to have peace, and advance, and evolve along with the New Age Christ who will be Lucifer inhabiting the human body of a man.

If God is allowing the world to be deceived there will be no sign given it, and no revival on a massive scale.

It is over and the world has heard it long enough and they will not embrace it so they are past the point of no return.

It is deception from here on out for the world.

The Bible says some shall depart from the faith and follow the new age movement interpretation of the Bible because it is deception from here on out for the world and some that were in the faith shall be deceived.

Which the Bible says that the time will come that the world will not want to hear the truth of the Bible but want to hear it according to their own lusts, and that is to evolve to be spiritual, and a god, exalting themselves saying I am, and there is no one else beside me.

I do not believe in either. Quite the contrary.
As for wisdom and perceiving the end times, please note the context.

Dan 12:10
Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Dan 12:11
And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Dan 12:12
Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
Dan 12:13
But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.

The topic is a great end-time revival or great end-time harvest of souls; still waiting for the scriptures that teach that. You keep trying to change the subject. I have nothing further to say to you; you'll just keep trying to turn the thread in the direction you want it to go. So unless you have something relevant to the topic I'll say goodbye.

They say more than a spiritually blind person will ever discern.
Therein lies your self made problem.
Humility and contrition from you will bring His

There will literally be an End Time Revival, in the latter portion of the Tribulation, led by the 144,000 Preachers.

What fascinates me, before this, was the Two Witnesses, they leave and Revival kicks in.
But in the REST of the World, the Antichrist and minions are in complete control.
They will control Everything, but, where these Revivals are being held and MILLIONS will be coming to Christ before the Second Coming takes place.
