REALITY CHECK

Soon you'll come to that sinking realization, that "freedom" NO LONGER EXISTS. The "BEAST" is watching every single thing you do, in and out of your home. Violate one of their rules, and you're wiped out. The "BEAST" has access to all your personal information and online presence. PRIVACY? Another myth. If you use technology, there is no "privacy". Those who "know", KNOW ALL. And with the onslaught of 5G technology, it will get even tighter. So many things you don't even realize around you are keeping tabs on everything you do. Yes, even in your bedroom.

BILL GATES currently has one final hurdle to cross. The MARK. Putting an electronic wifi reporting object into your body. You will need this for any ecommerce transaction. Worse, wifi will know where you are at all times, and what you are doing. THEY WANT COMPLETE CONTROL OF YOU, TO ENSLAVE YOU.

If you don't take the MARK, they will see to it that you don't exist electroncially. So you won't be able to interface with any place you now use a debit card.

Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Rev 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

ev 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
Rev 14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
Rev 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Rev 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

So be it. Right before your very eyes. When the realization sinks in, I hope it is not too late ........for you, or for me.

Life all about us is changing. The life we once knew and enjoyed has become history. It has been consumed by the BEAST. Remember the "golden rule"? The one that has the gold, makes the rules. Nothing happens without the approval of the world master computer interface. And we are locked into already, almost.

So if you take the "mark" but break the rules, you can't buy or sell. If you refuse the mark, you can't buy or sell. If you take the mark, you will burn in the lake of fire and torment forever and ever. It's not complicated.

I'm not trying to scare you. I'm trying to sober you. WAKE UP!!!!

See, you have been worshiping your god. The god of materialism. NOW, in HIS great love for you, HE will bring you face to face with a choice. Accept the mark, or refuse the mark. Surrender your will to HIS will, or refuse and be eternally tormented.

What ever the consequence of REFUSING the MARK, it is not as bad as what will happen to you for all eternity, if you accept it.

TRAGICALLY, so many "church people" whose god is materialism, will take the mark and burn forever in the lake of FIRE. Will that be you? Pray for strength and courage. You are going to need a supernatural supply of it, to stand against powers of darkness, with divine valor within.

Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Are you a "saint", according to this criteria? Here is the reward of the perseverance of the true Christians; for although they die for the testimony of Jesus, yet they shall be unutterably blessed.

Imagine how your life would change this very minute, if your debit/credit card no longer worked anywhere, as though you never existed. You call your bank and they don't know you. Then what? Release your imagination, let it wander at all the possibilities of impossible existence. That is the choice YOU WILL MAKE when the BEAST comes knocking on your door, with a permanent mark for your body, and relieve you of your card. Actually they won't even ask you for it, as it will be of no value at any computer interface. What will you do then? You have only precious seconds to decide and prepare. REPENT..... .or PERISH!

When in history have billions of people all been put in their houses and quietly waiting for instructions on what to do next? As our brother has said, Bill Gates solution is to vaccinate everyone and give them a quantum-dot tattoo. Can not help but think something is coming. As our brother has said lets all make sure we are prepared. Rend your heart and not your garments!

What does this technology have to do with a person’s loyalty to Jesus Christ?

We already are inundated with technology, most of which can track us to some degree.

I haven’t paid for anything in cash for weeks if not months.

What if we could pay via fingerprint or retinal scanning. Would that pass muster?

Unless receiving some alleged "mark” IF that passage even refers to a literal future mark (highly questionable) is somehow coupled with a requirement that a person deny Jesus as Lord (and a concomitant pledge of loyalty to a satanic figure) I don’t think it would make a whit of difference to a person’s loyalty to Jesus Christ.

What if they can forfeit your rights to sell, render professional service, or buy using this technology when for example you don't support LGBT agenda, abortion,etc.

Evil minded authorities can implement a very intrusive, imposing, and anti-christian rules and regulations.

I'm not jumping on the world's coming to an end train. I'm just listing these "not in order" of the past plagues to give us all some prospective. We all have a "free will" to make our best decisions of what we want to carry in our heads.

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7

I'm simply asking you to explain why 730,000 flu hospitalizations, plus 62,000 flu deaths and 54 MILLION positive diagnoses since October, somehow did not overwhelm our hospitals. Go figure.

We can be clueless or simply unmindful as the prophetic events are being fulfilled and one can be fed up with the multitude of views, absurdities, and failed predictions on biblical prophecies

4 But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the scroll until the end of time. Many will go back and forth and search anxiously [through the scroll], and knowledge [of the purpose of God as revealed by His prophets] will [greatly] increase.” (Daniel 12:4 - Amplified Bible)

At the end of time, or in the time just approaching the end, a great search will begin as to what the prophets were indeed speaking of and how it will all play out as God's purposes unfold. He showed this to the prophets. A lack of prophetic literacy has been described as one of the greatest deficits of the contemporary church. As this great search begins anew true knowledge and understanding of the end events will increase greatly. Many are acquainted with the prophecies regarding the first coming of Christ but remain in the dark so to speak as to the prophecies surrounding His second coming. This increased and intense delving into the predictions of the prophets will be one of the signs of the approaching end. Daniel wrote of it under the inspiration of the all knowing Spirit. So be it. Except for getting closer to Jesus nothing can perhaps serve the church better than looking again to the prophets and their writings. The church of the end days is not portrayed in scripture as rudderless and just hanging on by a thread and without understanding. The church will know and UNDERSTAND what is occurring (Daniel 12:10) and it will be a true anchor for its soul.

"I am God and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.'" (Isaiah 46:9-11)

David said: A lack of prophetic literacy has been described as one of the greatest deficits of the contemporary church.

/Let me enlighten some here, just because some don't jump on the "end of times train" doesn't mean they're not awake./

It might be said also that because some here are interested in eschatology and think it's worth paying attention to and gaining at least a modicum of understanding of it does not mean they are off on a wild goose chase. For some reason, eschatology is the only field of Bible study that is scoffed at by many.

Meanwhile, I'm not packed up and ready to go quite yet because many and certain things revealed in prophecy must occur before the second coming of Christ.

Thanks.

Some good words Mr. Bill !

Here are a few verses from Scripture
Luke 24…46And He told them, "This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem. 48You are witnesses of these things.…
Matthew 28v19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you
Acts 14v21They preached the gospel to that city and made many disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch, 22strengthening the souls of the disciples and encouraging them to continue in the faith. "We must endure many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,”

This should give us a bit an idea where we have failed.
It is about the Gospel, repentance, obeying, continue in the faith etc.
I still want to talk about today's "Gospel" in a different thread.

David said: Meanwhile, I'm not packed up and ready to go quite yet because many and certain things revealed in prophecy must occur before the second coming of Christ.

I hear your good words MrBillPro. I understand though I believe eschatology and its study reveals that God's blood bought church will experience victory when all else is falling apart and can instill confidence instead of worry and fear for our present daily life and the future.

Your wise comments have blessed me more times than I can remember.

Thank you.

Jer 23:22  But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. 
Jer 23:23  Am I a God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off? 
Jer 23:24  Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD. 
Jer 23:25  I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed. 
Jer 23:26  How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart; 
Jer 23:27  Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal. 
Jer 23:28  The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.

I don't understand your post, was there a message there? Or content that didn't show up, that might give me an idea of what you're trying to get across? All I see is scriptures, maybe you're just posting scriptures as your voice in this debate, never seen a post like this, so forgive me if I don't understand.

Go to the thread and Listen & understand,no more ???;

Bill I think he is saying that a person ignores his pronouncements at their own peril.

Good and very godly people have disagreed with his version of end times events for at least 2000 years.

Todd said: Bill I think he is saying that a person ignores his pronouncements at their own peril.

1Co_2:14  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

I cannot change that, or remedy your lack of understanding, Mr Bill. I'm truly sorry. I will pray for you, that HIS SPIRIT and POWER illuminate your heart to what HIS word speaks to us all.
