Where is the Love? (In the Seven Year Tribulation)

The seven-year tribulation - which will engulf the world shortly - will absolutely manifest the EXPONENTIAL godlessness, lawlessness and violence of mankind as they heap upon themselves the EXPONENTIAL consequences of their rebellious designs against Almighty God and His moral absolutes for this world (Rom. 1:18-32, Rev. 6-16). The demonic wrath and oppression, the wrath of lawless men, and the ETERNAL Wrath of Almighty God's RIGHTEOUS indignation will be manifested to its zenith and one attribute that will be completely missing during this seven-year period will be the outworking of the love of God among mankind.

"Then shall they deliver you up (Israel) to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because lawlessness shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold." Matt. 24:9-12

There is a Greek word ἀγαπάω (agapaó) used three different ways, which is used to speak of the love of Almighty God. The LOVE of Almighty God seeks only the ETERNAL highest and best for His creation. The depot and sum of all the love of Almighty God the Father is found in the person of His Son the Lord Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17). Almighty God's love for fallen mankind is outworked in the sending and giving of His Son (1 John 4:9).

The first use of this Greek word is  ἀγαπάω (agapaó) which denotes the love of the will, reason and esteem. This word seeks only the highest and best for an individual in light of Almighty God's person and RIGHTEOUSNESS (John 3:16-17). This word is used only once in Revelation 6-19 referring to the new believer in the Messiah during this period who is absolutely sold out to Almighty God's will and "loves" not their life unto death! These are more than willing to make the supreme sacrifice for the testimony of God knowing full well that in their death they will see their Savior and will be risen again at His return at the first resurrection (Rev. 20:4-6). They love their Savior more than their earthly existence and are more than willing to lay it down that Almighty God and ETERNAL life may be manifested to a godless world.

These are more than willing to make the supreme sacrifice for the testimony of God knowing full well that in their death they will see their Savior and will be risen again at His return at the first resurrection.

The second use of this Greek word ἀγάπη (agapé) denotes the highest and best of Almighty God in action and in outworking. This is the Greek word which is used in Matthew 24:12 which states that this "love or charity" of many will grow cold because of EXPONENTIAL lawlessness and the fruits and effects of it during this time period. The outworking of this love can only be applied by those who have received Almighty God's love (i.e., the Lord Jesus Christ - John 3:16-17, 1 John 4:9). It is a love that the unredeemed cannot use since in their unredeemed estate they are currently rejecting Almighty God's love (John 3:16-17). If they reject God's love, how can they allow it to be outworked in their lives and have it overflow unto others? This Greek word is found nowhere in Revelation 6-19 indicating that the application of it even from the redeemed is very scarce. Imagine a time with all of the EXPONENTIAL global catastrophic events, wars, famines, pestilences and oppression void of Almighty God's love? Thus it will be in this time and no wonder for when a world rejects Almighty God's love which is found in His Son (John 3:16-17), how can they love or want the ETERNAL  highest and best for their fellow man?

Imagine a time with all of the EXPONENTIAL global catastrophic events, wars, famines, pestilences and oppression void of God's love.

The third use of this word is agapétos which has two special applications: the Beloved, a title of the Messiah (Christ), as beloved beyond all others by the God who sent Him; of Christians, as beloved by God, Christ, and one another (the nation Israel). It is used for the object of Almighty God's ETERNAL highest and best with the benefits of being in the Son of God (the body of Almighty God's Well-Beloved).

This word is nowhere to be found at all in the book of Revelation let alone in Revelation 6-19. That this Greek word is missing speaks volumes and is further proof and evidence that the Body of Christ (i.e., the Church) is not here during this time and have been Raptured out before this HORRIFIC seven-year tribulation begins. If the body of Christ was to go through this Day of Wrath, of a truth we would find the beloved of Almighty God, the Bride of the Messiah mentioned. It is only in the Beloved Son of the Father that a transgressor can be redeemed and placed in the Body of Christ and be called beloved. Oh the WONDERS of His grace and mercy and the wonders of our position in Christ (Eph. 1:3, 2:6, Col. 3:1-4)!!!

If the body of Christ was to go through this Day of Wrath, of a truth we would find the beloved of Almighty God, the Bride of the Messiah mentioned.

Today will you be one who enters into this time period without the love of Almighty God? Dear friend we are at the door to this time period and even a blind man can see it! Now is the day of salvation! Now is the time! May you truly want to know the Lord in Spirit and TRUTH and receive the Father's love which is ONLY found in Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17, 1 John 4:9)! May it be so!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Warning God's People - You Are Distracted and Your Prophetic Guard is Down!

Since President Obama has left office and the manifestation of his secular agenda has "seemed" to have diminished, many evangelical Christians have felt at ease about the rise and threat of national and social secularism. and have been encouraging themselves and focusing on president Trump's presidential post-Obama agenda and the restoring of America. Now don't get me wrong, we should do all we can to help promote our founding father's view for America in every way, for we live in time and this is our earthly realm (Psalm 34:14, Heb. 12:14); but NEVER at the expense of putting the Gospel of Jesus Christ or the proclamation of the abundance of current prophetic events, which are EXPONENTIALLY teeming with the manifestation of the very soon coming of the Lord on the back burner.

 To my surprise since January, I and others have personally found that pre-trib prophetic interest among evangelicals has dramatically dropped and has slowed way down since President Trump has been in office.

To my surprise since January 20th, I and others have personally found that prophetic interest among evangelicals has dramatically dropped and has slowed way down since President Trump has taken office. This complacency is not good for God's people and is a demonic straw man and deception to distract and lull God's people into a state of false security and idleness, while the enemy moves his demonic agenda forward (Rev. 13). While God's people seemingly are currently distracted by the temporal and earthly of this vain life, they are neglecting Almighty God's present will for their lives and the ETERNAL Kingdom watchmen duties which we are to seek first (Matt. 6:10, 33). Now dear friends, hear me out if you please. We are not to be running around as "Chicken Littles" causing inaccurate unbiblical fears and falsely spiritualizing current events creating confusion, for that is what Almighty God has called us NOT to do (1 Cor. 14:33, 40). On the other hand, we are to be with ALL biblical discernment and wisdom to be firstly watching, waiting, serving, glorifying, and proclaiming God's ETERNAL glory and goodness. No matter how things may seem to be moving in Washington in light of our present hour this does not replace the REALITY that Almighty God's Day of global wrath is indeed very nigh as global events clearly tell us (Rev. 6-19) and His return and Kingdom are even at the door!

As Almighty God's watchmen, we have found - within the last two months-  that sound biblical prophetic interest has now been replaced by temporal earthly things such as the false anticipation of the restoration of America.

As Almighty God's watchmen, we have found - with in the last two months - that sound biblical prophetic interest has now been replaced by temporal earthly agendas such as the false anticipation of the restoration of America, pro-Americanism, overturning Obama-care, undoing Obama's secular policies, closing our borders, removing illegals, fighting global Islamic terrorism, creating American jobs, religiously following conservative talk radio, holding Republicans and Democrat's feet to the fire, watching Fox News 24/7, fighting for America's personal survival, supporting the pro-Trump agenda, fighting for pro-life social causes, protecting American sovereignty and interest, etc...etc. Now hear me my dear friends, I am totally for all of these things and have been greatly encouraged by Almighty God's grace and mercy to this nation. Also, I have even been a little encouraged by President Trump, his agenda, the fight against American communism, progressivism, secularism, and globalism. However, I am NOT trusting at all in any of man's sincere attempts to restore America in light of our EXPONENTIAL LAWLESS day. I am personally seeking ONLY Almighty God's will in such an hour for His ETERNAL glory firstly and greatly rejoicing in Almighty God's grace and mercy for this nation; which (our nation) even now is at the precipice of the global ash heap and heading straight into the Day of the Lord (Rev. 6-19).

We here at the IFB have been zealously praying for president Trump for Almighty God's saving grace, wisdom, and guidance in such days; but he nor any of our founding fathers - if they were here today - can save this sinking titanic of a nation, for we are EXPONENTIALLY past the point of no return!

It would seem to me and some others that Americanism is now taking first place among evangelicals; who just a few months ago were very eager to hear and who were daily keeping an eye on our world's prophetic events leading to the Lord's trumpet blast and the Day of the Lord (1 Thess. 4:13-18, Rev. 6-19). My dear friends hear this one watchman of the Lord if you please. We were NEVER so close to losing this nation and its global retraining power as we were in November and since then - by Almighty God's grace - He has spare our nation for a brief moment for His people to seek Him with ALL our hearts, to get out His ETERNAL Word of redemption and to blow the shofar of warning that the Day of the Lord is at hand! How can we ever think and deceive ourselves that we can save this nation when it is moments from its end! We here at the IFB have been zealously praying for president Trump for Almighty God's saving grace, wisdom, and guidance in such days; but he or any of our founding fathers - if they were here today - can NEVER nor could EVER save this sinking Titanic of a nation, for we are EXPONENTIALLY past the point of no return; for globally the Day of the Lord is at hand! I pray to Almighty God that you have the spiritual eyes to see that, for if you do not you will be totally opened and in a place to be deceived by the god of this world (2 Cor. 4:2-4, Eph. 2:1-2).

How can any society survive when moral absolutes are hated, scoffed at,  and demonized by millions of Americans and both political parties? The answer is, “It will not! nor will it EVER!” Thus, we now see the final sad state and coming downfall of our once great and highly respected nation as the Day of the Lord is rapidly approaching (Psalm 11:3, Prov. 14:3).

Tragically, it will be this complete abandonment of social morals that will be America's final demise.

Tragically, it will be this complete abandonment of moral absolutes that will be America's final demise, and my dear friend we are already there! This nation - due to her abandonment of moral absolutes and the soon coming Rapture of the body of Christ - will finally implode on herself, thus opening the door to the entrance of the Four Horsemen and the dreaded Day of the Lord (Rev. 6-19). My dear friends, it is absolutely crucial for all of Almighty God's people to keep Almighty God first and His ETERNAL purpose first in such days. My friend, if you are one who knows NOT the Savior please be sure that you personally DO (John 1:12, 3:16-17, 1 John 5:10-13). This world is headed into the final showdown between demonic and human lawlessness verse the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God; between Lucifer, the fallen angelic creature verses the ETERNAL GOD and CREATOR of ALL (Rev. 16:13-16)! Be sure that you are on your Creator's side, who loved you and died for your transgressions and to be your propitiation and Savior (John 1:12, 3:16-17, Rom. 10:4, 1 John 4:10).

My dear friends, the Kingdom of Heaven is TRULY at hand!

Where the Heart of Our War is TodayI!

We must FULLY comprehend and possess that our war is NOT with flesh and blood (the physical tangible things of this physical fallen world) but with the arch fallen angel Lucifer and his demonic disciples who ARE working from an ETERNAL position and his godless fallen sheep of this age (Rom. 1:18-32, 2 Cor. 4:-34, Eph. 6:12). My dearly beloved may I say it again, we MUST FULLY comprehend and posses that our standing and position in Christ is SURE and REAL (Eph. 1:1-23, 2:1-12, Col. 3:1-4). Beloved, our position is as sure as two plus two equals four and water is wet! However... Until we FULLY allow Almighty God the Holy Spirit to teach us and lead us in the Father's will for our lives here in time (John 16:13, Rom. 8:26-39, 1 Thess. 5:19) and ourselves apply the wondrous sound ABSOLUTES (spiritually and morally) - which are found in Almighty God's INFALLIBLE Word - we will NEVER possess these REALITIES and TRUTHS and be subject to the chains and shackles of this physical temporal world and it's god (2 Cor. 4:3-4, Eph.2:1-2, 1 John 5:19).

Until we FULLY allow Almighty God the Holy Spirit to teach us and lead us in the Father's will for our lives here in time and apply the wondrous sound ABSOLUTES (spiritually and morally) which are found in Almighty God's INFALLIBLE Word we will NEVER possess these wondrous REALITIES and TRUTHS and be subject to the chains and shackles of this physical temporal world and it's god.

Dear Christian friend, do you personally possess these wondrous TRUTHS and REALITIES in your life that pertain to you? Dearly beloved, it is an absolute tragedy if we as believers today do not. OH, how we will be ETERNALLY missing out and ashamed when we finally see Him face to Face (1 John 3:1-4). Our lives are ETERNALLY greater than the temporal vain years of our existence in this fallen world and time. Beloved, we ought to be possessing and walking in our ETERNAL position by faith with an ETERNAL perspective as we cross the busy street of this vain life knowing and possessing that it is NEVER in vain to serve the Lord, that the Day of the Lord is at hand and the establishment of His 1000 year kingdom here in time is very nigh (Isa. 2:1-4, Isa.11, Dan. 2:44-45, 7:13-14, Mic. 4:1-4, Zech. 14, Rev. 20:1-10)! The trumpet is about to blow my beloved and may we ALL be found FULLY occupying and possessing in Spirit and in TRUTH Almighty God's WONDROUS TRUTHS and REALITIES until our Savior meets us in the air (John 14:3, 1 Cor. 15:51-58, 1 Thess. 4:13-18,1 John 3:1-4)! Even so come Lord Jesus!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!!

The FOREVER Torment of Reality and Righteousness

At the end of the 1000-year reign of Christ, all Haters of Reality will be confronted with their most feared phobia. They will come face to face with the FINAL REALITY of time and ETERNITY, and be ushered into the very presence of Almighty God - the Righteous Judge - at the Great White Throne Judgment (Rev. 20:11-15). Here these sin-ridden, rebellious masses of countless multitudes from the beginning of time to the end of the millennial reign of Christ will give a "final, full account" to Almighty God. We do not read in Revelation 20:11-15 that even ONE person will open their month in protest. The delusional and darkened imaginations of fallen man will be obliterated by the ETERNAL LIGHT of REALITY. Upon the divine and righteous judgment from Almighty God, the lost "Haters of Reality" are cast into Almighty God’s ETERNAL prison called "the Lake of Fire.” Here in their unregenerate state they will FOREVER have to give account for each and every sin - from the smallest transgression to the vilest of thoughts, words and acts. Hear what Almighty God’s Word says concerning these wretches and their wretched estate:

"And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found NO PLACE FOR THEM (Rev. 20:11). He that is unjust (unrighteous, broken), let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous (cf. Rom. 10:4), let him be righteous still: and he that is holy (set apart by Almighty God), let him be holy still (Rev. 22:11)."

The souls of unregenerate men and women will FOREVER remain in their misery and terrible condition subject to the RIGHTEOUS RULE of Hell's PERFECT and PURE condition (Rev. 22:11). Any thought that pops up in their heart and mind that transgresses Almighty God's ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS and JUST absolutes will be consumed immediately to keep the ETERNAL realm of God pure and clean. They will be left with their godless memories and reminders of their rejection of Almighty God’s pardon to reap the devastating, ETERNAL consequences (cf. Luke 16:23-25). The tragic end result for these individuals is that they will have to personally and perpetually FOREVER answer to Almighty God for each infraction and every violation of Almighty God’s Natural Laws of time and ETERNAL Spiritual Laws of FOREVER.

At the end of time these Haters of Reality will abide forevermore in the presence of ABSOLUTE REALITY in torment and anguish.

The most tragic thing imaginable for a human being is to be thus left to their own darkened and delusional thought process. From Lucifer to his fallen angels (demons), from Cain to Nimrod, from Babel’s scattered founders of the nations to the Anti-Christ, from Gog and Magog in the middle of the Great Tribulation to the Great Rebellion at the end of the Millennium - at the end of time these Haters of Reality will abide FOREVERMORE in the presence of ABSOLUTE REALITY in torment and anguish (Jer. 4:4, Matt. 13:42, 50, Mark 9:48).

Almighty God calls out to all today to be saved (i.e., delivered) from the “wrath to come” (John 3:17; 12:47). God calls us to abandon our delusional philosophies and ideologies and follow after His ETERNAL absolutes of reality and truth. The Lord Jesus said, "I am the way, the TRUTH (reality), and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but (except) by me" (John 14:6). "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him MUST worship him in SPIRIT and in TRUTH" (John 4:24). "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy TRUTH: thy word is TRUTH" (John 17:16-17).

Because of His great love for us, Almighty God sent His Son Jesus Christ to earth to ETERNALLY save us (John 3:16-17), and to deliver us from the bondage of our trespasses and fallen nature (Gal. 1:4; Eph. 2:1-7). In reading this very sobering post may you consider very seriously the VERY REAL realities of time and ETERNITY, and understand how desperately you need the person of God’s Son, Jesus Christ, as your Personal Savior. May it be so for you to be found a Lover - and not a Hater - of Reality. Place your trust in Christ TODAY! You will NEVER be the same!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

What Is Sin? Are you Good Enough for Heaven - Take the test and see!

Ignorance of Scripture is Ignorance of Christ - Take the Gospel of John Challenge

 












Who do you say that Jesus is? Do your thoughts, upbringing, religious background, or personal beliefs about Jesus line up with God’s Christ of the HOLY SCRIPTURES? You might ask, “Well, does it make a difference? My friend, I say unto you, it surely does!

TAKE THE JESUS CHALLENGE

The Bible is the final AUTHORITY on who Jesus Christ is. It is God’s absolute instruction manual and blueprint for life. If you reject the authority of the Word of God, my friend, you are doomed. There is no hope for your lost, sinful condition. The Bible teaches that “All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). All! You need to know the True Savior, not a make-believe one. It’s that serious. Don’t let your deceitful heart and pride ruin you and keep you from God’s redemption found in Jesus Christ.

Ignorance of Scripture is Ignorance of Christ!

Jesus said, "Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify [speak] of me" (John 5:39).

The purpose of this Bible study is to bring a person through God’s simple plan of salvation using only the Gospel of John.

What is Sin?
The One I Thought I Knew

Blah, Blah, Blah...?

No doubt our message here at the IFB concerning our nation is becoming very repetitive and "blah, blah, blah" to some of our visitors, but was not this also the same message in Jeremiah's day before Babylon came in to level and ravish Jerusalem (Jer. 6, 7, 15:1, Ezek. 14:14, 21)? The message then was not popular and neither is this one today. Hear me my dear friends...  I beg you, as a voice shouting in the wilderness, Almighty God has already given this nation over to His Divine judgment and once this has begun who can abide and let alone stop it? In our dire hour DO NOT be deceived and seek to pray for our nation any more, for we are well pass the point of no return. Almighty God the RIGHTEOUS Judge of ETERNITY has now become our nation's RIGHTEOUS Adversary and WOE! WOE! WOE unto America!

However dearly beloved, pray fervently in these hours that individuals will wake up to the REALITY of our hour and their desperate need of Almighty God's RIGHTEOUSNESS and be saved!

However dearly beloved, pray fervently in these hours that individuals will wake up to the REALITY of our hour and their desperate need of Almighty God's RIGHTEOUSNESS and be saved! The upcoming seven tribulation will begin because the Age of Grace will have come to a stone hearted end - being that there are no more in this dispensational time block which will hear the global message of Almighty God's wondrous grace and mercy. All that is now left for our nation and world is Almighty God's RIGHTEOUS WRATH (Isa. 24, Matt. 24, Rev. 6-19). Do your part as an American, May God help us... but DO NOT trust in it at ALL any more, for the Day of the Lord is at hand and who then will be able to stand and let alone stop the global EXPONENTIAL CATASTROPHIC tsunami which is heading our way (Isa. 24, Matt. 24, Rev. 6-19).

Beloved, Be strong in the Lord and rejoice in His PERFECT salvation and RIGHTEOUSNESS!

God speed for Almighty God's glory!

America's ONLY Hope

As we see our nation wither away and our nation’s social landscape ravished beyond all repair, do not let your hearts be troubled (John 14:1). Do not deceive yourselves in these last days as millions are by putting all of their eggs in the basket of the Democratic and Republican Party. There is ABSOLUTELY no hope there in saving this sinking titanic from going to the bottom of the sea. America, your ONLY hope is in the Savior of the world. O nations of the world, your ONLY hope is in the Savior of the world (John 3:16-17, Acts 4:12, 16:29-31, Rev. 5:9, 21, 22:1-5). America will not survive and in its collapse we will see a horrific seven year tribulation that will engulf the entire world (Rev. 6-19). My friends the reality is that the Four Horsemen are at the very door (Rev. 6)!
.

There is ABSOLUTELY NO ESCAPE from what is at the door. These things ALL MUST come to pass as Almighty God’s Word has testified to.

There is ABSOLUTELY NO ESCAPE from what is at the door. These things ALL MUST come to pass as Almighty God’s Word has testified to (Rev. 22:20). My dear friend, have faith in Almighty God and the simplicity of His PERFECT Word and He will set you FREE (Mark 11:22, Heb. 11:1,6). Beloved, Do not let your hearts be troubled, believe in Him and place ALL your trust in Him for it is in Jesus Christ ALONE that there is EVERLASTING HOPE and FULL ASSURANCE (Acts 4:12, Rom. 1:16, Col. 2:2, 2 Tim. 1:12). Do your part to the fullest as an America in these last days all the while knowing that NOTHING will stop the Day of Lawlessness, the Lord Jesus’ glorious second coming and the establishment of His 1000 year reign in TRUTH and RIGHTEOUSNESS! Be sure to see the BIG PICTURE first then all will fall into place! ETERNITY with our Savior is our future, NOT this fallen demonic wasteland called planet earth. The TRUTH will indeed set you free from the bondage and tyranny of Satan and his many faceted straw men, which are set up out there to distract you from the Savior and what is at hand (John 8:32, 36, 2 Cor. 4:3-4, Col 3:1-4)! Beloved use all of these things to draw you EVER closer to the Savior and never let your heart be troubled, for you safe as can be in His hands FOREVERMORE (Matt. 28:20, Luke 12:7, John 10:28, 14:18, Rom. 8:28-39, Rev. 1:17-18).
