But He replied to them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.' "And in the morning, 'There will be a storm today, for the sky is red and threatening.' Do you know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but cannot discern the signs of the times?
(Mat 16:2-3)

"Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near; so, you too, when you see all these things, recognize that He is near, right at the door.
(Mat 24:32-33)

If you have not yet put your faith in Christ, I urge you to do that today. He loves you and wants you to know Him.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

Urgent End Time Warning from the Lord

I recently wrote about Lynn Veasley's Revelation of Hell, and now I would like to share with you his urgent, end time warning to anyone who will listen.

In this urgent warning, posted on June 7, 2016, he spoke prophetically about the things he heard from the Heavenly Father. The Father told him to share with everyone what's to come. He said:

"He's given us the opportunity of a lifetime to be able to make preparations. His wrath is coming. He told me to go and tell everyone that will listen that time is winding up. He told me over fifteen years ago of the disease and destruction that is coming to the United States and all around the world -- the nuclear bomb, the disease, the tidal wave, which is tsunamis, the earthquakes, and all these other things that are coming, the viruses. As there are so many, you can't just name them all."




"His wrath is coming. He told me to go and tell everyone that will listen that time is winding up. He told me...of the disease and destruction that is coming to the United States and all around the world -- the nuclear bomb, the disease, the tidal wave, which is tsunamis, the earthquakes, and all these other things that are coming, the viruses." 

"God is wonderful. He has so many disciples that He wakes just like me. And it was so refreshing to know that I was not the only one around that was saying the same one thing, and that was 'Repent, because His wrath is here.' Now Father is fixing to lift His hands off the nation, because of the blasphemy. They blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, and that's one thing He's not gonna tolerate. Father said, 'I will stand up and show them who is God.'"

"I know that we think and we believe that as long as we believe in God, we're good to go. But that's not the case. You must know God. God said, 'I will raise up a nation. I will raise up a people that will obey. They will be My people and I will be their God, meaning that we will have a relationship with God -- not seeking fame and fortune, not seeking the riches of this world, but seeking His face."

"Now we are either going to serve God or we're going to serve ourselves - man. We know that all these things we're seeing on television are not good, they're not right, because they've turned their back on God."

"I wanted to tell you in as humble and simple a way (as possible), where it won't be offensive, and where it won't run you off. In a way that will just be simple and easy, and there's just no way to do that. Repent! I had to [do so], everyone has to. You must repent. The way you're living is not going to be enough. If you have sin in your life, it's not going to be enough. If you think that you can just sit here and survive the things that are coming and wait it all out, that's not going to be enough. You can't do it."

"The funny thing I found out and I asked God...how come we don't see the big time preachers preaching about repentance and about what's coming. He said that's because they have their own agenda. Father said, 'I will keep it simple, so I can reach the simple. The ones that have pride, I will not tell them, because they don't seek My face. They don't seek to know Me.'"

"So I asked Father, 'How can I do this? What can I say that will reach them.' He said 'Tell them they only have months. Tell them to get prepared. Tell them that they need to get out of the country.' He said, 'Get out of the way of destruction.'"

"He said, 'Tell them they only have months. Tell them to get prepared. Tell them that they need to get out of the country.' He said, 'Get out of the way of destruction.'"

"I'm like, 'Well, Father, that's a lot to put on someone in a few minutes.' Father said, 'Tell them.' When I go in the front and I talk to my Father, and the Spirit comes on me, He comes on me strongly. He takes over my tongue, my mind, my eyes, my ears. I hear, I see in the Spirit. I speak only the language of the Spirit. And by the time it's over with, I'm worn out. I'm torn down. But I must be obedient to what Father said. Father said, "Repent. Turn." Man is trying their best to act as though no matter what kind of sin it is, it's ok. They have cast the laws of God and thrown them in the trash and made their own law, which is sin. Father said, 'I can forgive all those sins, but this one I will not forgive...'"

"Father will forgive all things, except one thing, and that is blaspheming against the Holy Ghost. And this country and the world has done this. Because I thought it was for sin, so I said, 'Father, so can't you forgive them for their sins?' He said, 'Yes, I forgive all sins.' He said, 'That's not the reason the wrath is coming. That's not the reason why I'm pulling My hands off of the nation and let the earth receive what it's going to receive.' He said, 'Because they've blasphemed against My Spirit.'"

"See, you can't blaspheme if you never had or you've never known anything about it. But once you get the goodness of God and know the sweetness of His Spirit, and then turn and say there is nothing to it, you have blasphemed against God. And God said, 'I will not allow that! I will show My face. I will show man who I am, as I have done with Pharaoh. The world will know that I AM.' I dropped my head and I said, 'Father forgive me for questioning anything.' Father said, 'Receive My words from My prophets on this earth. For this is the time that will change forever. The earth will forever be different. It will forever be changed.' He said, 'Before it is over, over three billion people will die.'

Note: Lynn corrected this in another video and said that one third of the world population will die, and since there are about six billion people in the world, that means two billion people will die.

"Father said, 'Receive My words from My prophets on this earth. For this is the time that will change forever. The earth will forever be different. It will forever be changed.'" 

Lynn says, "I'm like, 'Father, why so many people? why so many people? Even a lot of Christians!' He said, 'The Church has turned its back on Me. The Church is not even standing up for Me.' I said, 'Father, are you angry?' He said, 'When you blaspheme against My Spirit, which I have blessed this nation greatly and made it the number one nation in this world, I will destroy it and make it the least. He said, 'They will suffer greatly. You say that you need not God? You say that you are God? You make your own law -- your law against Him? He said you will suffer greatly. No matter how this earth stands in sin, God has always blessed the righteous and the unrighteous. But Father said He will not tolerate this any more. He said, 'I lift My hands up.' And He said, 'The horsemen come.' And He said, 'The angel comes, and he will sound his trumpet. It is done.' He said, 'I have called many to preach the same thing that I have told you to tell and warn those (that are in their family, friends, everyone that you see) warn them of what's to come.' That's what Father said.

"And I've been warning people. And it hurts your heart to hear someone say, 'You think the government is going to allow this to happen? You think they're going to allow diseases? You think they're going to allow a bomb to happen in this country? You think the government is going to allow all these things?' Lord have mercy! Men think that man is God. God said, 'I will tear it all down -- government and all will fall.' Remember what I said: There's nothing that He ever told me that did not come to pass."

"God wants you to be saved. Listen to me! Repent. If you want to know anything, seek it out. Seek the answers. Look on Youtube. Look up a man named Benjamin Baruch. He has a relationship like I have with Father. And there's many others besides him that are saying the same thing: 'Leave the country.' So many have taken their family and left the country, getting out of the way, because He's going to destroy this country. It will never be the same! Never! And the world is going to rejoice, because great will it fall. Great is the fall of it! Get your passport. Make preparation to leave this country. Don't take the chance of saying, 'Oh, you're just being a radical,' and just blow it off. Don't do that. Why would I tell anyone to leave the country? Why would all of us tell anyone to leave the country unless God said so. We love this country, but we love God more. When God said, 'Move,' move."

"He called it an exodus. You will see it. There are many, many of God's people leaving this country. Some going north. Some going south. But they are getting out of this country. When this country falls, the graves won't be able to hold -- the massive graves -- they will pile up the bodies and they will be burning them. There's not enough."

"Listen, Father has a place for all those that He has told where to go to leave. And their family and their friends are going with them. They've already left, many have. But some are still saying the same thing I'm saying, crying out to their family, pleading and begging their family, so they won't be left behind. Why would God do that, when He's capable of keeping us in the country? Because He said, 'I would rather you be out of the way in a peaceful place, in a better place, than to be around the destruction itself.' He said, 'Those that believe will be safe, if they act on it. Those that do not believe will suffer.'"

"He said, 'I would rather you be out of the way in a peaceful place, in a better place, than to be around the destruction itself.' He said, 'Those that believe will be safe, if they act on it. Those that do not believe will suffer.'"

"This is the time -- today is the time that you believe or don't believe. This is the time that you be for real with God or be fake! There's no more playing church! There's no more, 'Ahh, I'm a believer of God,' and then you go on with your life about your business and don't even known nothing about it. Either you are going to have a relationship with God or you are not. This is the time...This is the end time. This is the time the prophets were talking about that in the latter times many shall depart from the faith, taking heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. What you see on television -- nothing but doctrines of devils, seducing spirits."

Near the end of the video Lynn says that we need to trust God and not man. We need to look around and see the fulfillment of the book of Revelation, the Bible, the prophecies are being fulfilled, and we need to see it with our own two eyes.

He said, "Stand for Jesus. I know this is a lot to say, 'Hey, tribulations are coming! The wrath of God is coming! Pick up and leave!' I know that sounds like a lot. But no more playing church! Either you're going to trust God for real or you're going to trust man."

He said we can make many excuses not to take heed to his warning. People may say, "I can't leave what I have. I've got a house." Lynn responds, "Sell it!" Or others may say, "I can't leave what I have. I've got a great job." Lynn replies, "God gave it to you. He'll bless you with another one." He urges, "We can find many, many reasons why not to believe. But I'm telling you, find the reason to believe. Look! Open your eyes! Look around! See what's going on around you! Know that the heart of many has waxed cold. Know that they have no love for you."

"What do you think is going to happen when hell breaks loose? What do you think's going to happen when God has lifted His hand and all hell is breaking loose -- when you've got the race riots, when you have the diseases, when you have a bomb go off in the country, radiation flying everywhere, when you have earthquakes, tidal waves (tsunamis)? What do you think -- that the government is going to come to your rescue? You can forget that one. I think you found out in New Orleans what happened on that one, and that was one city. We're talking about a nation that's going to drop -- a nation that's going to fall. You get it? Repent!"

"What do you think is going to happen when hell breaks loose? What do you think's going to happen when God has lifted His hand and all hell is breaking loose -- when you've got the race riots, when you have the diseases, when you have a bomb go off in the country, radiation flying everywhere, when you have earthquakes, tidal waves (tsunamis)? What do you think -- that the government is going to come to your rescue?"

He ends by saying, "May God bless you. May God keep you. Don't just take my word for it. Search it out. Look for it. Look for others saying the same thing. Don't count me out as being crazy. Don't count me out for being a radical. Don't count it out. I've never been wrong. That's the sad part, if you count me out. When it comes to Father, I've never been wrong. Get your passport. Whether you have your passport, I'll tell you another word: Repent! Repent. May God bless you. May He give you dreams and visions which He has already done with some of you. If you feel in your heart that something is wrong, it's because God was tugging at your heart and you know this is not going to stand anymore -- this beautiful place, this beautiful place called United States. It will never be the same. The earth will never be the same."

The Land Mourns in the Last Days

Today I would like to discuss the changes occurring in the earth and its environment, as well as their resulting, adverse effects on wildlife.

A few examples will suffice to make my point. Currently, the earth is experiencing over 3,000 earthquakes per month. That's about 100 earthquakes per day! Giant sinkholes are forming all over the world. These are swallowing up cars and homes and resorts. People have been killed by them. One man was sleeping in his house and the ground opened up and swallowed his house. He screamed for help, but he could not be rescued. Some towns and cities are being plagued by sinkholes, such as Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA, which has about 40 sinkholes. Another place called Bayou Corne, Louisiana, USA, has become a ghost town after it had to be evacuated due to a large sinkhole.

There were also a record number of fireballs sighted in the skies worldwide in 2015, as well as a record number of meteorites. As Jesus said, "The stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken." (Mk 13:25, NIV). Likewise, the prophet Isaiah said, "All the stars in the sky will be dissolved and the heavens rolled up like a scroll; all the starry host will fall like withered leaves from the vine, like shriveled figs from the fig tree." (Is 34:4, NIV). Therefore, the signs we are seeing in the sky point to the Lord's imminent return.

Another sign in our environment worth noting is the thinning of the earth's atmosphere. This is according to United States astronaut Scott Kelly, who has just returned from spending a year in space, which is more than any other person has ever been in space. Having orbited the earth over 5,400 times and taken hundreds of photos, he said of the planet's atmosphere in a recent interview, "...it definitely looks very, very fragile and just kind of like this thin film..." Therefore, even the heavens have worn out like an old garment, just as the Scriptures foretold.

For the prophet Isaiah prophesied, "Lift up your eyes to the sky, Then look to the earth beneath; For the sky will vanish like smoke, And the earth will wear out like a garment And its inhabitants will die in like manner; But My salvation will be forever, And My righteousness will not wane." (Is 51:6).

Likewise, the psalmist wrote: "Of old You founded the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands. Even they will perish, but You endure; And all of them will wear out like a garment; Like clothing You will change them and they will be changed. But You are the same, And Your years will not come to an end.…" (Ps 102:25-27).

As the earth and sky wear out, our climate is also being severely affected. The Weather Channel documented the top 15 weirdest weather events in 2015, which included Antarctic heat, flooding in one the driest places in the world, record snowfall, record cold temperatures, and record high temperatures. Tornadoes increased in number in the US in 2015. Then there were droughts and wildfires, affecting large regions. In fact, 2015 was among the most damaging year for wildfires ever recorded! There are no indications of these patterns becoming less severe, as scientists predict another year of record heat and more bizarre weather events in 2016.

There are changes happening with the wildlife populations, too. There was a record number of worldwide shark attacks in 2015. The numbers of mass animal deaths are astronomical and rising worldwide. There are millions of fish, birds, and animals dying off in mass. Among the various causes of this phenomenon are starvation, sickness, disease, and suicide. This phenomenon is not localized, but is happening worldwide in 60 to 90 nations or territories. The average number of such "mass die-off" events per year has been around 638 between 2012 and 2014. That's quite a spike from the 144 events recorded prior to that in 2011. And in 2015, the number of events rose even higher to a total of 828 in 96 nations or territories! If this rate of mortality continues, someone has estimated that all the fish in the sea will be gone within 40 years. Furthermore, great numbers of bees are dying off all around the globe. There were 125 known mass death events of bees in 28 countries during the past three years.

Meanwhile, scientists say the Coral Reef is experiencing the longest global coral die off on record, due to a condition known as bleaching. Normally reefs are very colorful exoskeletons built by marine, invertebrate animals, known as corals, which secrete calcium carbonate to form the hard structures. Bleaching occurs when the corals become white or pastel, due to loss of a large percentage of zooxanthellae, a single-celled organism, known as a protozoan. Basically, disease and stress lead to this bleached condition that can kill the coral. In order to understand how serious this is, we need to realize the importance of the coral reef to other marine life.

According to Wikipedia, "Coral reefs...support over one-quarter of all marine species. …Coral reefs form some of the world's most productive ecosystems, providing complex and varied marine habitats that support a wide range of other organisms." Since these reefs are such a vital ecosystem, supporting over 25% of all marine species, it is a foreboding sign when these reefs die off. According to NOAA, "This causes reefs to erode, destroying fish habitat and exposing previously protected shorelines to the destructive force of ocean waves." The current global bleaching event began in 2014 and may continue into 2017.

Putting it All Together
These apocalyptic events that I have just documented are a fulfillment of biblical prophecy, such as the one made by the prophet Hosea, which says, "Therefore the land mourns, And everyone who lives in it languishes Along with the beasts of the field and the birds of the sky, And also the fish of the sea disappear." (Hos 4:3). In this prophecy, there are several things happening -- the land mourns, and everyone living in it is passing away, including the beasts, the birds, and the fish. They are disappearing. This is a perfect description of what we have seen happening during the period from 2011 to the present.

Through the prophet Hosea, the Holy Spirit gives us the reason for these things. He says it is "Because there is no faithfulness or kindness Or knowledge of God in the land. There is swearing, deception, murder, stealing and adultery. They employ violence, so that bloodshed follows bloodshed." (Hos 4:1b-2). The land mourns due to the sin and idolatry that are in it. This is evidenced by the earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis, sink holes, droughts, wildfires, and mass animal die offs, including coral reef die offs. Not to mention the thinning of the earth's atmosphere, the record numbers of fireballs, meteorites, extremes of severe weather, and other meteorological events occurring. The whole creation groans and suffers pains right now. And as a result, all life on this planet is being affected.

When you combine all of this with the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster and it's dire consequences, as well as the The End Time Plagues that are currently happening, it's clear that we are in a time of distress such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world, which God created, until now and never will be again!

Those with understanding will understand that these are signs of the times we live in. They point to the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back right away.  But He is only coming for the holy ones, for a Bride without spot or wrinkle. Therefore, prepare in holiness for His return. Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Grieve and Lament for the Church

If you have been following my posts on this blog, such as Something's Happening in 2012 and Trumpets heard Around the World, I realize you may be wondering about two things.  First of all, where is this all found in Scripture?  And secondly, what should we do about it?  Let me address these questions one at a time.

Scriptural Basis of Current Events
Regarding the Scriptural question, I already touched on this in part in Something's Happening in 2012. I stated: "If you'd like to read about the events that are occurring, you can check out the gospel of Matthew chapter 24, the gospel of Luke chapter 21, the gospel of Mark chapter 13, and Joel 2." 

Now let's go into a little more detail with you on those.

Wars, famines, earthquakes, terrors, and great signs from heaven
Jesus said, "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes." (Mat 24:7)

Then He continued by saying to them, "Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be great earthquakes, and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven." (Luk 21:10-11)

"For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places; there will also be famines. These things are merely the beginning of birth pangs. (Mar 13:8)

The mountains melt like wax
"The mountains will melt under Him And the valleys will be split, Like wax before the fire, Like water poured down a steep place. All this is for the rebellion of Jacob And for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the rebellion of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? What is the high place of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?" (Mic 1:4-5)

When I see the volcanoes erupting in these videos from 2012, I see mountain rock melting like wax.  All this is because the earth must rid itself of the rebellion and idolatry that are in it (Isa 24:19-20).

The deep waters tremble, lightning flashes, the skies give forth a thunderous sound, and the earth shakes
The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were in anguish; The deeps also trembled. The clouds poured out water; The skies gave forth a sound; Your arrows flashed here and there. The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook.
(Psa 77:16-18)

The earth quakes and the heavens tremble
The Lord spoke through the prophet Joel saying, "Before them the earth quakes, The heavens tremble, The sun and the moon grow dark And the stars lose their brightness. The LORD utters His voice before His army; Surely His camp is very great, For strong is he who carries out His word. The day of the LORD is indeed great and very awesome, And who can endure it?" (Joe 2:10-11).  The earth is quaking and the heavens are trembling.  The Lord utters His voice.

Wonders in the sky and on the earth, blood, fire and columns of smoke
"I will display wonders in the sky and on the earth, Blood, fire and columns of smoke. "The sun will be turned into darkness And the moon into blood Before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes."
(Joe 2:30-31)

The Day of the Lord is Coming -- a day of clouds and thick darkness
The Lord spoke through the prophet Joel saying, "Blow a trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, For the day of the LORD is coming; Surely it is near, A day of darkness and gloom, A day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn is spread over the mountains, So there is a great and mighty people; There has never been anything like it, Nor will there be again after it To the years of many generations." (Joe 2:1-2)

What Should We Do About All This?
Now to address the second question I opened with at the beginning of this article: What should we do about all this? Let's continue reading from Joel 2.

Blow a Trumpet and Sound an Alarm
As I just mentioned, the Lord spoke through the prophet Joel saying, "Blow a trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, For the day of the LORD is coming; Surely it is near," (Joe 2:1)

This means that we need to warn the others.  We need to blow a shofar in Zion and sound the alarm, in order to wake them up to what's happening.  The expressions "in Zion" and "on My holy mountain" indicate that the Lord wants us first and foremost to warn His people. These blogs are one way to do that.  Another way is through preaching and testifying to others.

Consecrate a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly, gather the people, seek holiness, lament, wail, and cry out to the Lord
The Lord says, "Gird yourselves with sackcloth And lament, O priests; Wail, O ministers of the altar! Come, spend the night in sackcloth O ministers of my God, For the grain offering and the drink offering Are withheld from the house of your God. Consecrate a fast, Proclaim a solemn assembly; Gather the elders And all the inhabitants of the land To the house of the LORD your God, And cry out to the LORD." (Joe 1:13-14)

He says the priests and ministers of God need to lament, wail, fast, proclaim a solemn assembly of the people and cry out to the Lord.  These are words we don't hear any more.  Lament means to grieve audibly.  We do this when we deeply regret our sin and the condition of the Church.  People lament when someone dies.  It involves wailing, which is grieving loudly, make a prolonged, high-pitched sound like a cry.  When was the last time you heard that at a Church meeting? This is called a solemn assembly.  Crying out to the Lord is exactly what it says.  It's to make a clamor in his ears from a broken and contrite heart.  Many Christians know how to make a clamor when angry about something, raising their voice and yelling about it.  But when was the last time we made a clamor over our sin, the condition of the Church, and the fact that it's not ready for the soon-coming day of the Lord?

"Blow a trumpet in Zion, Consecrate a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly, Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, Assemble the elders, Gather the children and the nursing infants. Let the bridegroom come out of his room And the bride out of her bridal chamber. Let the priests, the LORD'S ministers, Weep between the porch and the altar, And let them say, 'Spare Your people, O LORD, And do not make Your inheritance a reproach, A byword among the nations. Why should they among the peoples say, 'Where is their God?' " (Joe 2:15-17)

This says we need to call a fast, assemble together solemnly and seek holiness as a congregation. The elders, as well as children and infants must all be included.  Even those who are preparing for marriage or just married.  The pastors and priests must weep and ask the Lord to spare His people.

This is not something limited to the old Testament.  James said, "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom."(Jam 4:8-9)

Woe to those who are at ease in Zion and do not grieve over the ruin of the Joseph
"Woe to those who are at ease in Zion And to those who feel secure in the mountain of Samaria, The distinguished men of the foremost of nations, To whom the house of Israel comes." (Amo 6:1)

So many Christians today are at ease during this most serious hour in the history of the world.  They feel secure and are overconfident that they are ready for the Lord's return.
 
"Those who recline on beds of ivory And sprawl on their couches, And eat lambs from the flock And calves from the midst of the stall, Who improvise to the sound of the harp, And like David have composed songs for themselves, Who drink wine from sacrificial bowls While they anoint themselves with the finest of oils, Yet they have not grieved over the ruin of Joseph. Therefore, they will now go into exile at the head of the exiles, And the sprawlers' banqueting will pass away." (Amo 6:4-7)

The Lord GOD has sworn by Himself, the LORD God of hosts has declared: "I loathe the arrogance of Jacob, And detest his citadels; Therefore I will deliver up the city and all it contains." (Amo 6:8)

The Lord's people are reclining in luxury, eating choice foods, listening to music while drinking wine, and applying skin care products to keep their skin moist, when we should be grieving over the present condition of the Church and the ruin about to happen. There is still so much arrogance in the Church, but it should have no place among God's people.  It's time to grieve over the ruin of Joseph!

Grieve and lament over the detestable things done in the Church
During the days of the prophet Ezekiel, when the Lord was about to bring judgment upon Jerusalem, he showed the prophet the detestable things that were being done in the temple -- even by the elders. The showed Ezekiel that he had a team of guardian angels that had been in charge of guarding the city. And he instructed them to take swords and slaughter the people, pitying nobody.  But before they did, the Lord sent another angel ahead of them with a writing kit to mark the people who sighed and groaned over all the abominations being committed in the midst of Jerusalem.  This angel knew which people were signing and groaning over sin in their lives and in their midst.

The LORD said to [the angel with the writing kit], "Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst." But to the others He said in my hearing, "Go through the city after him and strike; do not let your eye have pity and do not spare. "Utterly slay old men, young men, maidens, little children, and women, but do not touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall start from My sanctuary." So they started with the elders who were before the temple. (Eze 9:4-6)

Amazingly the Lord had these angels begin their slaughter at His holy sanctuary.  It's the same today.  Judgment must first begin with the house of God (1 Pe 4:17), and it begins with those in oversight -- pastors, and elders. 

As Micah said, "Because of this I must lament and wail, I must go barefoot and naked; I must make a lament like the jackals And a mourning like the ostriches." (Mic 1:8)

Cry Aloud, Seek the Lord, and Stretch Out Your Hands to Him at Night
For the choir director; according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. My voice rises to God, and I will cry aloud; My voice rises to God, and He will hear me. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; In the night my hand was stretched out without weariness; My soul refused to be comforted. When I remember God, then I am disturbed; When I sigh, then my spirit grows faint. Selah. (Psa 77:1-3)

Fear of the Lord, who weighs motives
"All the ways of a man are clean in his own sight, But the LORD weighs the motives." (Pro 16:2). It's normal for Christians to think that we are clean and do not need to worry about God's judgment.  But the Lord weighs the motives of our hearts.  That's why we need to fear Him.

"The LORD has made everything for its own purpose, Even the wicked for the day of evil. Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD; Assuredly, he will not be unpunished. By lovingkindness and truth iniquity is atoned for, And by the fear of the LORD one keeps away from evil." (Pro 16:4-6)

We rarely hear about the fear of the Lord any more.  But it's by the fear of the Lord that we keep away from evil.  Don't be proud in heart, thinking you are in good shape and don't need to concern yourself with this, or else you will be punished.  Humble yourself.  Fear the Lord! Repent of all pride and arrogance.

"There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death."  (Pro 16:25).  You could be on a path that leads to death and yet think your way is right!  This is how deceptive it can be.

We need to cry out for Him to reveal any hidden sin in our lives that we have stowed away and no longer see.  You need to go hunting for sin in your own life.

A rebellious nation, obstinate and stubborn
Here was the commission the Lord gave to Ezekiel. Then He said to me, "Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious people who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day. "I am sending you to them who are stubborn and obstinate children...' " (Eze 2:3-4)

The situation is the same today in the Church.  There is rebellion against the Lord.  His people have transgressed.  Many of us are still stubborn and obstinate! So just as Ezekiel had a hard time finding anyone to listen to what he was saying, there are few today who will tolerate this message.

Eat the scroll containing lament and mourning
The Lord warned Ezekiel, "Now you, son of man, listen to what I am speaking to you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth and eat what I am giving you." Then I looked, and behold, a hand was extended to me; and lo, a scroll was in it. When He spread it out before me, it was written on the front and back, and written on it were lamentations, mourning and woe." (Eze 2:8-10)

The Lord knew that Ezekiel might be tempted to refuse to accept this assignment and speak these words of lamentation, mourning, and woe.  It would have been rebellious for him to refuse this assignment, even though it was very difficult and he knew the people wouldn't listen.

"For you are not being sent to a people of unintelligible speech or difficult language, but to the house of Israel, nor to many peoples of unintelligible speech or difficult language, whose words you cannot understand. But I have sent you to them who should listen to you; yet the house of Israel will not be willing to listen to you, since they are not willing to listen to Me. Surely the whole house of Israel is stubborn and obstinate." (Eze 3:5-7)

The Lord explained to Ezekiel that His people would not be willing to listen to what He was saying through the prophet, because they were not willing to listen to the Lord.  Again, it's the same today. The Church is not willing to listen to those who sound the alarm and proclaim this message, because they are not willing to listen to the Lord. They are hardened and obstinate.

Whoever will listen, let him listen; Whoever will refuse let him refuse
The fact is that some will listen, so this message still needs to be proclaimed.  "But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth and you will say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD.' He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house." (Eze 3:27)

The watchman is not responsible for the people's response.  He is responsible to obey the Lord and sound the alarm.  Many will refuse to listen.  So be it.  Let them refuse.  If you don't like this message, you are free to refuse to listen to it and accept the consequences.  But let those with ears hear it!

Mourn for sin and separate from the world and false church
The Lord told Ezekiel that some survivors would escape this judgment.  He showed the prophet what kind of people they would be.

'Even when their survivors escape, they will be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, each over his own iniquity." (Eze 7:16)

These are the people who had ears to hear what the prophet was saying and separated themselves.  They went up to the mountains and mourned, each person for his own iniquity.  This doesn't mean we need to literally go to a mountain. But we need to come out from among them and be separate, so that we will not be partakers in the judgment.  We need to cleanse ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit.  We need to pursue holiness, righteousness, and the kingdom of God.  And we each need to mourn for our own sin.

Call upon the name of the Lord, Who is a refuge for His people
Let's not forget what the Lord said through Joel, "And it will come about that whoever calls on the name of the LORD Will be delivered; For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem There will be those who escape, As the LORD has said, Even among the survivors whom the LORD calls." (Joe 2:32).  Everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be delivered.  That's not lip service.  That's sincere repentance and seeking His face with all your heart.

"The LORD roars from Zion And utters His voice from Jerusalem, And the heavens and the earth tremble. But the LORD is a refuge for His people And a stronghold to the sons of Israel." (Joe 3:16)  While the Lord roars and utters His mighty voice, we need to remember that He is a refuge for His people.

Putting it All Together
As we've just seen, the Scriptures clearly tell us that these things in our current events would happen. The earth is groaning, ridding itself of all the idolatry and rebellion within it. And we need to do the same.

Are you ready?  Do you hear the sound of the trumpet? Please do not wait any longer or you could miss the rapture.   Repent now and give your life to Jesus Christ.  Look to Him, who alone can prepare you to enjoy the rapture, and join the worshipers in heaven.

If you know Him, but are not living 100% for Him, then repent and get right with Him now.  We need to fast, pray, wail, grieve, mourn, lament, groan, and cry out to the Lord for our own sin and the detestable condition of the Church.  It's high time we sought holiness and consecration. He is coming back right away, but only for the holy ones.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
