Thoughts on events

So, its been awhile since I posted due to being out of town on vacation and then trying to get back into the swing of things after we got back.

I was just thinking, maybe its time to switch things up a little. I have seen a lot of things posted on the web lately about stuff going on, much of it health related, and it is becoming more and more clear to me that we are getting down to the last few seconds of earth's history. I know there will be a few people who read this who won't believe me, or will just think I'm regurgitating something I've been taught, but its not.

The Bible is very clear as to what is going to happen right before Jesus comes and there is too much evidence to not believe that it is being fulfilled right before our eyes.

Just in the last week or so, there have been multiple strong earthquakes per day all over the world. Much of Australia was burning for quite awhile, and now in the midst of Jamaica and Mexico being hit with massive earthquakes, there is an infectious disease making its way out of China.
Many people have died, and there is a great fear that it will kill many people all over the world before it stops. I don't want to say that it won't, because it most likely will. But, much of what we read in the news is exaggerated and made to seem more than it is, for the very reason that the Devil has an agenda. There will be many people who die, as do every year from many other infectious diseases. And many people will be scared that they are going to die, too.

I don't want to get into what many call conspiracy theories, some of which basically say that the government has orchestrated this virus so they can push for a drug or vaccine, which may be true.  Suffice it to say, Satan has an agenda, and he has his puppets that do what he wants, to bring as many people as possible onto his side through fear and pain and lies.

And because as a race we have chosen to follow the desires of our own flesh, rather than the desires that God has for us, sin is taking over the world, and God's Spirit is being removed from holding back the evil, allowing those who wish to live apart from God to their own desires.

The only way to escape this world, and the sin that is consuming it, is to follow God's plan, to choose to be on His side. God has given us an escape and promised that if we take Him at His Word, He will remove sin from us, and take us through this time of trouble, and whatever happens to us in this world, we will come through to see Him come in the clouds of heaven to take us home with Him.

Whether we die now, or stay alive all the way to the end, we will be saved by God's grace to walk the streets of gold, and see Him destroy this old world and everything in it, to recreate it anew where sin will not exist and where disease and death will not hurt us.

I don't want to make this too long, but I just have to include another thought. God has a hand in everything, and nothing happens without His permission. Even the leaders put in place over our countries and churches are there for a reason. I saw a speech given by a leader recently where they were talking about making peace with another country's leader and how much more peaceful it was going to be. My thought, during this speech was a verse. 1 Thessalonians 5:3  "For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape."

Jesus is coming soon! Please, be sure you have accepted Him and are on His side! He will keep you through everything ahead!
