That is pertaining to Jesus's return and not the "rapture" as erroneously mainly believed. What other scripture can you give to substantiate your claim?
Are you paying me to do your research?

Nobody is paying me anything so I don't have to do a doggone thing.

... In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last ...

Bubba started floating through the air when suddenly, he spotted her!
The girl of his dreams was right there, floating a short distance away...
Bubba yelled out "Hey Angel, don't blow that trumpet just yet, my dream girl is right there... Just hold on a few more years... "

Yeah... 😁☕

I do not think with what is going on… now is the right time…

Then there is the question if you found someone could you sustain the relationship especially in such trying and difficult times and then particularly if it is a long distance one.
I could and did. Distance of 1500 miles. Late second wife. Met her online in an AOL Romance Christian Singles chat room.

Short version: people will always talk about the present as a trying and difficult time. Make the best life you can right now, no matter how trying and difficult it seems to be, because this is the only life you get.
Rightly so.

Hi Valour-Dare, welcome to the forums!

I get being troubled by the times we live in. Yes, I do expect a coming storm. Do I think it will be the final "storm" before Jesus comes back? Who knows...... those who saw WW1 & WW2 coming may have felt the same way, yet here we are.

We are called to keep our lamps trimmed and full of oil, but that doesn't mean we cease to live. Has God told you not to date or marry? If not then perhaps it's an option for you. Submit yourself to His will, but don't talk yourself out of a blessing..... doing so can actually be a type of false morality. Not judging though, I'm prone to it myself!

As a teenager, I heard a lot about the end times. Always thinking the world was about to end kinda left me feeling like anything I did was a waste of time. Eventually I learned to seek His guidance for whatever He wanted me to do or decide THAT DAY. I found a lot of peace in that, and I hope you will too. God still has a plan for you, even if it all ends next week ;).

P.S. Even the wise virgins with plenty of oil were allowed to sleep...... don't get yourself so wound up in discerning the times that you're unable to rest or accomplish whatever God has for you! :cool:

Thank you for your welcoming message. I understand what you are saying about WW1 and WW2 but at least for me it is different. I know that perhaps you amd other's won't understand this but specifically this 2020 - WW3 I have been born to witness (my life since then has been integrally tied to it.) I have been watching events play out since 2020 and like a puzzle pieces falling into place.

To clarify no Almighty God has not told or indicated to me specifically that I am not to have a romantic partner or relationship but with both the challenges in my life especially financially and also having a clear framework as to how WW3 is unfolding (knowing it is time to prepare as best I can) it is difficult for me to comprehend unless my future partner too was on the same page. Regardless to be enveloped in a romantic relationship when I know and am experiencing the dark clouds is something that I find difficult to correlate.

As I have already mentioned WW3 has begun "officially* in April / May 2024 there was something that happened very specifically then… (I wonder how many here paid attention to that sign?)

However regardless I am very grateful for the encouragement. I will at least through means available see whether I can find anyone online for a friendship potentially and see where it goes from there… 🙂

What happened in April / May 2024 that officially started WW3?

A very subtle sign… On the 26th of April 2024 - a white horse with blood running… In London… I am sure you remember?

and it is "official"(meaning that it will never be announced publically by the media they will keep referring as if it is still coming but never say we are in it definitively and least not until it is too late)

It is "official" because it was confirmed later on.

My apologies it was the 24th of April not the 26th lol. 😅

I am not expecting anyone here to believe this but for me I know…

Rev 14:20 KJV And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.

But on the upside, it is now very easy to see why you're single. No mystery there at all anymore.

Don't sound like anything significant to me. If the horse was running in the Middle East, it might hold more significance, of course, it would depend on who was riding it and also the amount of blood.

So, it was this wine press that was pouring out copious amounts of blood?

Lol I really don't care what you / anyone say or infer about me. Lol and I don't just disclose things in detail to everyone... I have never followed the crowd perhaps you do, I don't know but I don't. I am imperfect and rely on His grace to sustain me. In truth I doubt you have even an inkling of what has been going on in South Africa and the world and that of course is your prerogative.

If you knew who the ones who hide behind the "masks" of communism / nwo etc work. Then you would understand that though WW3 will never be announced officially announce it as then their target might not be in the position they want... it is a way for them to signal to each other they are ready to begin... The puppet masters who have strings throughout the world and all the countries. Who control from the shadows...

Ok....
Caught up reading Your comments in this thread.

And what I see, albeit somewhat limited....
Is that YOUR community needs you but for whatever reason you don't actually have any "works" or deeds to accompany your faith. Prayer being chief among the works and deeds lacking. Why are you praying in isolation? It has no financial requirement. Are you so caught up in the physical realm that you cannot see the Spiritual realm? The one that absolutely doesn't need money and if it does God provides it.

A listening ear, a kind heart, and a caring person doesn't require anything except your being willing to be that person.

Sometimes just a willing hand and caring eye is all that's needed. Women are desperate for a man who actively LIVES his faith out. Not one who talks a good game but does nothing. Or a nut job that preaches in the park shouting at people as they walk by. But the guy who visits the elderly, plays with the orphans, mentors the teenagers, helps those around with tedious and laborious tasks just because many hands make light work. A Christian woman can't stand to see a unicorn (mythological creature being the single Christian man) like that and so they marry them.

EVERY guy who does these things as a Christian single man ends up married. But you not going to formal or alternative church groups is isolating yourself....and being all alone was NEVER God's plan for being a Christian. You can't do it in isolation nor should you.

People don't care what you know unless they know that you care.

Old axiom...current truth.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but as a woman, I've been reading through this thread and trying to understand your point of view.

Are you saying that you are hoping to find and marry a woman who is also preoccupied with the onset of WW3, so that the two of you will be able to spend your lives looking for signs and symptoms of it together?

You started out the thread saying you'd really like to find someone, so I'm trying to clarify what it is you're looking for in a female companion.

I understand that is how it looks and yet my faith is greater than ever in my life. (not something I did really just was a progression of events) How do I explain that I being nothing in of myself. Not being perfect was given by grace ( meaning unmerited favour) to know events that have been unfolding since 2020... I am a witness to that. In truth you do not know anything about me, my life and circumstances as to why I say what I do say here.

I am not in isolation though those of friends and believers I have are few. Then there is the reality you probably know nothing about South Africa but I believe that soon you will. For it will be in the spotlight globally like never before...
