Excerpt: We all have an inescapable appointment with death (Hebrews 9:27). Just as surely as we were born we will surely die. It is not pleasant to think about but it is something that will happen to all of us. It is a fact of life.

It's the truth. Everything that one need understand about the patience of our Lord! How, when it's all said and done, there will be NOT one with an excuse, not one. He's indeed patient, but as it is said: He will not wait indefinitely for you to come to Him (Genesis 6:3). Romans 1:24, 26, 28 declares that God’s patience and mercy are not without limitations.

Isn't that the truth? We don’t know how long our window of opportunity will be open.

It's true that God's Spirit will not always strive with man. His Holy Spirit may follow some people all the way to their death bed trying to save them, yet they still may not yield; and others are cut off long before; they are the walking dead, as God no longer wants them because they have blasphemed His Holy Spirit. God help us! This is serious business with the Lord God Almighty! There's no guarantee that God will deal with people tomorrow, as this moment may be their final opportunity. It's a terrible thing to reject that final knock at the door. Woe unto them, for eternal damnation is their destiny! It's no time for people to be negligent with the eternal destination of their souls; it's holiness or hell; it's righteousness or torment.

Submit yourselves therefore to God and live. Let God take those desires of the world from you, and replace them with abundant living through Christ Jesus. Blessed be the name of the Lord! Holy is His precious name!

Psalms 103
[1] Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
[2] Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
[3] Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
[4] Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

The Lord makes new creatures out of people. He takes those old, ugly, worldly, sinful ways and washes them away with His divine blood so that we become vessels of honor to the Lord; His people then become fit citizens for that wonderful promised land called Heaven where there is no more pain, hurt nor death. It's all within your reach, because God's promises are willed to all mankind -- but you have to reach out for it by faith - God bless.

The darkness will be so great that it will be felt (Exodus 10:21) and the cries and screams and the stench of the eternal burning flesh of others will be the only way you will know your friends are there. Hell was created for the devil and his angles (Matthew 25:41). People who hate God or just simply reject or ignore His free gift of eternal life will be sent there, too (John 3:18). There will be no second chance or way to change your mind — no amount of begging, crying or pleading with God will get you out of hell. It is a one-way ticket. God is giving you every opportunity to avoid Hell and go to paradise. Only God knows how many opportunities you have left so this is one decision that you do not want to ignore or get wrong.

This stuff is hogwash, nothing but Self-Induced Nonsense.
Talk about missing the mark, but it should help you see why this was spoken:

that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even a darkness which may be felt. (Exodus 10:21)


…many still remain in this darkness that was derived from the Egyptian rivers of fire, which were much improved
upon by the Greeks in their underworld mythologies of Hell fire.
"Come out of her or remain in your sin."

Jesus said the ``I am coming soon`` so as believers we must have faith with expectant heart so our faith in HIS Words to the Lord Spirit will be set.......This rapture for the Lords Children will not be some easy ride on so charriot of fire and back to the earth when the devil and his authority is clear..... but it will be best to be in a jubilant expression for the duration in the hand of the Lord Jesus ..... Then come back to the earth which will be deserted of life to start a renewal into a lot more powerfull presence of the Lord Spirit so the devil and his authority will never come back to the earth for our faith and authority of Christ sakes.......There is a call for prayer for all the praying priest of Christ during these days as they will endure into victory with ease ........Pray Father I ask forgivness for all sin a ought in your believers for these last day plan for the renewal of the earth ...... I command that you build up your priest and leaders so their journey during the time before and after will go with ease in Jesus name .... Father I plead the blood of Jesus over the plans of the antichrist and these adversaries and take our judgements away for your Judgement only in Jesus mighty name ...........

I'm wondering about the infants who die, along with the sick, the retarded, and all the rest who are not as "fit" as you, Betsey...

Peace,
Brian

Betsey, there really is no excuse for this thread. After all the studying you could have been doing (you've been on here long enough), to keep on trying to scare people into loving Christ.......

It's just a shame.

Talk about God's love, talk about reaping and sowing, but don't buy into Babylon, and quit trying to drag people who are trying to find love back into the muck.

Girrl, get your eyes off me and keep them on Jesus!! FYI, I didn't write the thread, just passing it along. So don't come here to attack me. It's not going to work. So yes, let's talk about God's love and in doing so....."let's keep it real"!!
