Someone sent this to me so I can not take credit. Sadly few seem to really understand the mission of the Church.
Persecution shall bring revival to the remnant church and separate the wheat from the tares or weeds.
Jesus promised us we would be hated:
Matthew 10:22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
We are warned of Tribulation or Trouble in this world
Acts 14:22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
Paul warned us of persecution in 2 Timothy 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
someone sent this to me:
"Everyone is always searching for the"One" sign/event that will trigger Christ's return, yet completely ignore the One thing that is the determining factor of when Christ returns.
It's not about what king or kingdom is doing that is the final event, It's what the Church is like, what the Church is doing.
Jesus is returning for a Bride that has Made Herself READY.....
A Church Triumphant.
His return is not a rescue mission,
It is a completion of the task He appointed the Church to fulfill and until She does, He will NOT return.
He is coming for a Bride that has made herself ready to be received by her husband, Her gown washed white in His blood, without spot or wrinkle.
The Bride is still not ready, the Great exploits of the Church has not yet occurred because She is still too immature, too busy acting childish. When She matures, then we will see the sings and wonders take place that will bring about the greatest revival in human history. The Latter rain is to be greater then the Former Rain."
