Hi Don & friends:
God moved us from CA to 35 undeveloped acres in Southeast WY, a couple of hours from what WY calls cities, almost ten years ago. Although we were living a “prodigal children relationship” at the time, the Lord still laid it on our hearts that we needed to make our home self-sustaining. Therefore, we have solar & wind generation, a garden, greenhouse, tractor with backhoe and other attachments. Also, chickens, turkeys and honey bees. Eventually, we got right with the Lord, and found a gospel preaching church 45 minutes from our “farm”.
We tried to pay cash for everything as we went along but ended-up with a small mortgage. We have an “emergency” stash of a few thousand dollars that would NOT pay off the mortgage. So, when we read your article “Huge changes coming no matter who wins 2020 presidential election” Posted on November 13, 2020, we made a list of the “things” we might need under a Biden/Harris socialist (communist) government. Our present intention is to prioritize the list and spend the “stash” because it will not be of any value to have cash when the dollar and economy fail.
Are any of you also preparing in this way? I would be very interested in your thoughts and how God is working in your hearts and minds to do common-sense preparation for the up-coming changes to our lives in our country prior to the rapture. Thank you.
Love, prayers and blessings to all of you – my brothers & sisters in the Lord …

Greg,

Read my comment policy if you want to keep commenting here. One of the requirements for comments on this Blog is to stay on the post topic. Nobody reads comments on blogs for long that constantly degrade to pet issues.

As, for what you said, if your going to quote scripture here use it in proper context. Just cherry picking verses to make some preconceived point is not doing that. The fact of the matter is that 2 Timothy 2:4, is not saying what you claimed and that is why I responded to it. It was used by Timothy as an example that good soldiers are all in for the fight. It was not saying that Christians should not be physically involved in the world as you are suggesting.

Matthew 24 and 25 are about Israel. If you do not know who the scriptures are directed at you will never get Bible prophecy correct, and you will misapply what is meant for Israel to the Church, as many do.

One is qualified for the Rapture by being born of the Holy Spirit. Nobody with the Holy Spirit will be left behind, and I do not believe Jesus loses any born from the Father. Those teaching a partial rapture of the Church are wrong and those using the ten virgin parable to support such a concept are misapplying scripture. The ten virgin parable has nothing to do with the Rapture. We are the bride not the bridesmaids.

I suggest that you check out the teaching of Dr. Andy Woods on Matt 24 and 25. After hearing it, it should be clear to you who Jesus was talking about in those chapters. All scripture is for our knowledge but not all scripture fulfillment is to be applied as if the Church fulfills it.

I allowed your comment because it was originally pretty much on topic, but I responded to it because scriptures were being quoted without regard to context and proper application to try to suggest something the scripture does not teach.

The topic of this post is about the huge changes coming in the next administration. Anything more about your views on unrelated issues will be removed.

Don,
Hope you don’t bump me from the blog, but allow me to respond. Regarding 2 Timothy 2:4, what I mean by “spiritual” is that we are soldiers of the Cross, not paid policemen, actual American soldiers or the like. Verse 3 says we are “soldiers of Jesus Christ.” The weapons of our warfare are not carnal (2 Cor.10:3,4) – but spiritual (Eph. 6:12). I agree with the late, great Dave Hunt in his opposition to James Dobson in that regard.

Agreed that much of Mat. 24,25 is addressed specifically to nation Israel, but not all. 2 Timothy 3:15-17 says that every word of God is for our profit. Mat. 24:23-26 must have relevance to gentile believers, as does the parable of the fig tree and parable of the faithful and evil servants. Gordon Lindsay, Pastor Chuck Smith, Texe Marrs and Dr. Ray Brubaker said that born-again believers must be ready in order to be taken in the pre-trib rapture. 19th century giants of the Faith said likewise: J. Hudson Taylor, E. Schuyler English, G.H. Pember, Joseph Seiss, T. Austin-Sparks and Watchman Nee. (Hebrews 9:28)

Since you asked, brother, I’ll give you the Scriptures that teach how to be ready in the next post, if you allow it 🙂

Maranatha!

Hi Greg,

2 Th 2:4 is not a directive that Christians should not be taking a stand against evil in this world system. It is saying that good soldiers carry out the directives of those that pay them. There is no “(spiritual)” warfare even implied in this example of doing your duty to the one that bought you.

In addition, the ten virgins parable has nothing to do with the Rapture or the Church, it is about Israel. How do believers prepare for the Rapture anyway? Do they do improved spiritual works to get more saved? Are we to believe that half the believers are left behind because they no longer have the Holy Spirit as some teach? That unfortunate teaching is used by those that never understood that Mt 24 and 25 is about the end times of Israel and is not referring to the Church at all.

Hey Don, et al,
I don’t know if the election was fraudulent. What I do know is that Trump more closely aligns with the ways of God and Biden is far distant. Does that mean we need to fight/resist for Pres. Trump? No. 2 Timothy 2:4 says, “no one engaged in warfare (spiritual) entangles himself with the affairs of this life…” We need to be more patristic (teaching of the church fathers) then we are patriotic (proud boys) – Heb.11:13-16. I am NOT advocating silence against the evils of our day. Rather I am emphasizing what God’s Word says about the times that we live in. Many signs and Bible chronology point to our being at the cusp of Daniel’s 70th week. And scripture tells us that the world WILL fall under a hyper-socialistic power/man in the last days. Jesus Himself said God’s Word cannot be broken. Do we really want to resist what God has recorded? It reminds me of Matthew 16:21-23 when Peter rebuked Jesus for saying that He must suffer under the worldly authorities. We all know how Jesus replied. My emphasis is to be prepared for the Rapture like the five wise, while influencing all within my sphere of influence to get saved and/or get off Backslidden street. Shalom and joy!

p.s. Don, I have a you tube channel if you’re interested

Hey Don recently you put out a article from I believe November 6 2015 it almost seemed that article could have been put out in yesterday’s newspaper. It concerns what’s going on with censorship and the authoritarian govt. But now I can’t find it I am wanting to show people. Could you please tell me where to find this article on your website. Thanks again for all you do.trucker Greg

Don,
You’re right, there is no stopping what’s coming.
I have many right wing friends who are not Christians and scoff when I mention prophecy, Revelations, or anything of that nature and then tell me “So you just have no faith in Americans or you just hate people?”
It’s as if when I simply explain to them that this fall that may be coming is something that is out of our hands, that they simply just don’t understand what I’m telling them.
Jim,
Yeah my group sent me a copy of that tweet too. It was dated the 20th, so I’m not sure if it’s a late notice or they’re refering to this Sunday. But even if Twitter deleted it, I’d say be ready just in case. Antifa seems to think that trying to starve people or keep them out of work isn’t violent behavior but really it is in affect, if they are using physical force to stop you from getting to the grocery store or your job.
It feels like each day we’re watching the world go off the rails more, all while the Great Reset looms ahead of us…
I pray we are out of here sooner than later. Let our Lord come and take us away.

ANTIFA leaders said (on a now deleted Twitter post) that unless Trump concede to Biden by Sunday they will start arming themselves and begin terrorizing conservative neighborhoods (in this case in PA). Don’t think that will go over well if they are brave enough to actually follow up with their threats lol.
