FEAR OF: Corona-phobia and the Planned Demics to Follow

Do you suffer from.... A PHOBIA ?

known as CV-CCV-COVID19-Novel Corona Virus was and is a fear-driven mind weapon developed by the Powers that Should Not Be..

-a mental affliction driven by daily news stats and the trigger words "NEW CASES".

Symptoms:

mass panic, mask-wearing orders despite all logical scientific facts proving they are not healthy or effective.

"Social distancing" fear of people, fear of touching, fear of objects, fear of breathing even outdoors at parks, beaches, and recreational areas.

Victims will often resort to using utterly worthless masking materials like bandannas, cloth materials, and commercial dust filters.

Serious victims of CORONAPHOBIA are often seen wearing a mask while driving alone in a vehicle with the windows closed or walking outdoors while masked. Fear of salons and restaurants.

CONTAGIOUS:

Others seek to infect rational people with nonsense arguments, their own fears, and conflicting government agency dictates.

Mainstream News is the 24/7 "hot spot".

DANGERS:

It is most dangerous when politicians advocate for it, use it for advantage and political opportunity, and worst of all, assume dictatorial powers by issuing unlawful edicts and violate your rights.

The Politics of it has killed tens of thousands of businesses.

Mass injections known as "vaxx's" with technology and assorted dangerous ingredients extreme danger..

Known Cures.

-Turn off TV and MSM news.

-Research actual facts and percentages that show a fraction of 1% either become infected or die.

-Know that recovery rates are very high.

Understand HCQ cures quickly and inexpensively.

-Do not listen to experts that contradict themself every 3 weeks.

-Eat healthy, take vitamin C, zinc, and get SUNSHINE AND FRESH AIR.

-Hug people and SMILE! - It breaks the "programming".

For Christians:

 repent of fear, repent of the world's report, turn to and believe God’s gospel promises to protect us, deliver us, heal us, as we walk the walk and talk FAITH.

Read Psalm 91 and confess faith that God said that to us to believe.

And FEAR NOT,

"God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of wisdom and power and a sound mind"

-Rory Moore June 30, 2020

PAUL, Ministry, AND WORK (re-thinking "church")

PAUL, Ministry,  AND WORK

Another reason to respect the apostle Paul.

He was not a slick-suited orator on a glitzy stage, nor a robed and pointy-hatted "cleric".
Paul was a man's man who worked and ministered.

Let's look at the record WHY Paul worked in Corinth, Ephesus, and Thessalonia.

It is written in God's Word for us.

....................

Acts 18: 2 (Corinth Greece. And Paul found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, ..and he came to them 3 and because he (PAUL) was **of the same trade**, he stayed with them, **and they worked**,

for **by their trade** they were tent-makers.

..................

Acts 20: 29 Paul to the Ephesian pastors:

I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.    (they seek a following!) 

31 Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears.

32 And now I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified. 

33 I have coveted no one’s silver or gold or clothes.

34 You yourselves know that these hands (PAUL'S HANDS)  ministered to my own needs and to the men who were with me.

35 In everything I showed you that **by working**like this you (bishops) must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘

It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

<note: he is commanding the bishops <overseers> to work so they can give to the needy)

..............

2Corinthians 6:5 in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults,

** in labors**, in watchings, in fastings;

2Corinthians 11:27 in labor and travail...

1Thess. 2: 9 For ye remember, brethren, our labor and travail:

working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, 

we preached unto you the gospel of God.

...................

2Thess 3: 7 For yourselves know how you ought to **imitate us**: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

8 neither did we eat bread for free at any man's hand

but in labor and travail, working night and day,

(in order that) that we might not burden any of you:

9 not because we have not the right,

but TO MAKE OURSELVES AN EXAMPLE TO YOU,

that ye (ALL the men) should imitate us.

10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you,

If any will not work, neither let him eat.

...............

There you have it. Paul worked and instructed the bishops and men to work and be diligent. He said to "imitate us" in this....

the Fall of Jericho Shows The Last Days

the Fall of Jericho Shows The Last Days
by rory moore

God hid a wonderful rehearsal of the end time in chapter 6 of Joshua which reveals major end-time events in order.  The details are so amazing, the divine authorship and hidden revelations are marvelous beyond the minds of men.

Joshua: the 6^th book of the Bible. Joshua (Joshua a man, was a pre-figure for Jesus) who led the saints to take the kingdom, his name “Joshua” is also rendered “Yeshua”.  The remarkable history of Israel and the fall of the city of Jericho as the Israelites marched in to the Promised Land after the death of Moses is found in the 6^th book of the Bible, Joshua.

Jericho fell in the 6^th chapter of Joshua, the 6^th book of scripture. There is a hidden parable for the end of the rule of the kingdoms of man over the world, i.e. the judgment upon 6-6-6.
(Six is also the number of man who was created on the 6^th day (Gen 1:26-31), and given authority over the earth.

The first creation of Adam is also judged in the 6^th chapter of Genesis.  “Adam” the father of the natural man who is carnal, and of the earth, has had dominion for 6 thousand years, which are allegorically called “days” by the apostle Peter.) Therefore we are now at the very end of the 6^th millennial “day” of 1,000 years since Adam, and entering the third millennial “day” since Christ.  This is a remarkable convergence of time and we may see some fascinating parallels in Joshua.

Jericho's fall was foretold to Joshua.

Joshua 6:1-6 New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)

¹ Now Jericho was in a state of siege because of the presence of the Israelites. No one left or entered, the city was locked in.
² And to Joshua the Lord said: I have delivered Jericho, its king, and its warriors into your power.
³ Have all the soldiers circle the city, marching once around it. Do this for six days, ⁴ with seven priests carrying ram’s horns ahead of the ark. On the seventh day march around the city seven times, and have the priests blow the horns.
⁵ When the priests give a long blast on the ram’s horns and you hear the sound of the horn, all the people shall shout aloud. The wall of the city will collapse, and the people shall attack straight ahead.

Let's take note of "seven times". It is used in numerous places to allegorize and indicate "years". The walls of Jericho would fall at the last trump after seven "times" around the city and 7 trumps sounded. "Times":  The king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar, was given the mind of a beast for 7 years: Daniel 4:16 let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given him; and let seven times pass over him. ð  Here is "time"; "times" and "half a time" is used for 3-1/2 years: Daniel 7:25 ..he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time. And in Revelation 12:14 And there were given to the woman the two wings of the great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness unto her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. Leviticus 26:18 And if ye will not yet for these things hearken unto me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins. Leviticus 26:24 ...then I also walk contrary unto you; and I will strike you, even I, seven times for your sins.

Parallels:
"every man straight before him." Which is also a double prophecy of the coming of the Lord and of a disciples walk in which we are to follow after Christ and His Word “looking neither to the right nor the left” at the world around us. 

Luke 3:4 As it is written ...in Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
   And as the Israelites were commanded:
Deuteronomy 2:27 Let me pass through thy land (the world of unbelievers):
 I will go along by the highway (the Way of the Lord Jesus),
 I will turn neither unto the right hand nor to the left ( politics included).

Jericho was burned with fire in its judgment. Joshua 6:24 And they burnt the city with fire.

After the saints go "up", the world will be burnt in judgment as the saints are with the Lord, possibly in a safe haven on earth as Israel was in Goshen when the Lord judged the Egyptians.

2Peter 3:7 But the heavens that now are, and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

A synopsis of the rapture:

The last trump sounds, the Lord descends, saints are gathered to Him, and come to take the kingdoms of this world.

In Revelation, the 7th trump follows the other 6 trumps of Rev. 8.

The 7th trump is the last trump.

1 Cor 15:52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

From numerous verses "times" are shown as years, so when we read "seven times" we are able to see seven years in a later fulfillment.

With the foundation of terms and meanings, let's go to the prophecy hidden in the fall of Jericho!

(1) Jericho is shut up and in fear of the coming of Joshua and the saints. 

Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel:
Luke 21:26 men fainting for fear, and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world.

(2) Joshua is leading the saints to conquer.  (Joshua means Jesus who is "the captain of our salvation")
Hebrews 2:10 ...in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Jericho the city is circled for 7 days:

(15) And it came to pass on the seventh day, they rose early at the dawning of the day

(the 7th day represents the 7th year of tribulation)

"only on the day they compassed the city seven times."

The Israelite people of God thus circled Jericho seven times and sounded seven trumpets, then the end  came. >>>Thus, on the "last day" the saints circle the world with the gospel of the kingdom seven "times" i.e., years.

There is a smaller "snapshot" of the larger event given on the 7th day.

Jericho is a smaller "type" of the whole world, and this is a picture of the gospel of the kingdom being preached to the whole world before the end.

Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world (i.e.around the world) for a testimony unto all the nations; and then shall the end come.

In the seven year tribulation, the saints will keep the feast of unleavened bread. 

This means the saints will ONLY eat the pure Word of God. No human reasoning, traditions, or manmade explanations will be permitted by the Lord.

(10) And Joshua commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.

The trumpet (the sound of the gospel being given by the NT priests) will give only the sound of the pure gospel of the kingdom by the breath of His Spirit.

(16)   And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets,

The priests in the New Testament are shown in  Revelation 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father.

Romans 10:18 But I say, Did they not hear? Yea, verily, Their sound went out into all the earth, And their words unto the ends of the world.

The "Shout"

(16) Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD has given you the city.

20   So the people shouted,  and the priests blew the trumpets; and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout,

At Jericho there is a GREAT SHOUT.

(5) "when they make a long blast with the ram`s horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout   -then the walls of the city FELL!

1st Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout

(20) ... the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

Here is Jericho, a foreshadowing of "city of terrible nations", the world, falls

Joshua: 6:16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, Shout!; for The Lord has given you the city.

Then:

4   And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams` horns before the ark: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.

 Revelation 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded..there followed great voices in heaven, and they said, The kingdom of the world is become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ:

1st Cor 15:52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound

Rev. 16:18 and ... there was a great earthquake, ..., so great an earthquake, so mighty.

 19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell.

At Jericho,  the last trump sounded, there was a great earthquake, the city walls fell, and the saints went up and took the city.

At the end of the seven years, the last trump of God sounds, there is a great earthquake, the saints go up in the rapture, and the Lord takes possession of the Kingdom.

Rev. 11:15   The kingdom of the world is become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ,

and Daniel shows the saints taking the kingdom:

Daniel 7:18    But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.  ("God has given you the city")

(20)  So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets; and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

At Jericho there was a remnant saved from the house of the harlot.

Joshua 6:25 But Rahab the harlot, and her father`s household, and all that she had, did Joshua save alive (Jesus saves an obedient remnant from the Rev. 18:4 spiritual house of the harlot church.)

Rahab is a figure for the "harlot church" who has received the "seed" of men, i.e. their traditions and leaven.

The harlot church is judged in Revelation 17 and 18 after God's people come out of her:

17 only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come forth, my people, out of her, that ye have no fellowship with her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues:

Even the two witnesses of Revelation are there:

Joshua 6:22 And Joshua said unto the two men that had spied out the land, Go into the harlot`s house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as you swore to her.

Rev. 11 3 And I will give unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

The ark of the Covenant is seen at the end, at the fall of Jericho.

Joshua 6:13 And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams` horns before the ark of Jehovah went on continually, and blew the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; and the rearward came after the ark of The Lord, the priests blowing the trumpets as they went.

(NIV) 13 The seven priests carrying the seven trumpets went forward, marching before the ark of the LORD and blowing the trumpets. The armed men went ahead of them and the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD, while the trumpets kept sounding.

The ark of the Covenant is seen.

The church is the temple, and at the time when Christ is revealed in His people "at the revelation of Jesus Christ"..

The true temple will reveal where the ark of the Covenant is.

1Cor 3:17 ... for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye. 3:16 Know ye not that ye are a temple

1Peter 5:1 The elders among you I exhort, who am a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, who am also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed.

Ephesians 5:27 that he might present the church to himself a glorious church...

1st Peter 4:13 But insomuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exceeding joy.

The ark of THE COVENANT is revealed in God's remnant at the end...

2Thessalonians 1:10 when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at in all them that believed

Rev 11:19 And there was opened the temple of God that is in heaven; and there was seen in his temple the ark of his covenant; and there followed lightning, and voices, and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail.

The reconciliation of the churches spiritual fathers, the born-again Jewish disciples is in Joshua

Joshua 6:25 But Rahab the harlot, and her father`s household, and all that she had, did Joshua save alive; and she dwelt in the midst of Israel unto this day, because she hid the messengers, whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

Rahab means:  proud; quarrelsome,  large; extended (name of a woman).  The majority (large-extended)  of Christianity is Rahab the harlot. Rahab is sectarian, fragmented, competitive, denominated (lit. proud, quarrelsome).

Rahab, saved at the fall of Jericho, was not Jewish but was saved by a Jewish deliverer (Joshua).
"Joshua" is "Yeshua", which becomes "Jesus" in the New Testament language.

The harlot church, still sitting in the midst of NT spiritual Israel is with us "unto THIS day".

Joshua 6:23 So the young men who were spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brothers and all she had; they also brought out all her relatives and placed them outside the camp of Israel.

Ephesians 2:19 ... but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God

Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. 23 And they also, if they continue not in their unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.

The 12 Tribes of Israel present at the fall of Jericho.

A "Judas" character sell-out and antichrist type was hidden in the body of Israel, causing great loss.
Josh 7:1 ..Achan the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah of the tribe of Judah, took of the accursed; and the anger of the Lord was kindled against the children of Israel. vs 21: ...the spoils a goodly Babylonian garment and two hundred shekels of silver and a wedge of gold and I took.."

He was judged and he and his family were put to death, and burned in fire.
The corporate bodies of Judas in the end will suffer the same. 

A Restored Remnant of The Twelve Tribes of Israel are found in Revelation at the fall of the world.

Rev. 7:4 ...a hundred and forty and four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:

Rev 14:1  ..I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on the mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty and four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads.

Joshua 6:20  So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets; and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

On the 7th day, the 7 priests blew 7 trumps.

In Mat. 24:31, 1Cor. 15:52, 1Thess. 4:16, The LAST trump sounds right before the gathering,"rapture".

Every man was to go "straight before him", thus "making his paths straight"  at the coming of the Lord:

Mark 1:3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight.

Here are two "rapture" verses that parallel the "last trump in Joshua 6:20:

1st Corinthians 15:52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1st Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first;

At the "rapture", the saints go up overcoming the world.

In Joshua 6, the gospel of the kingdom went around the city, at the last trump, there was a great shout, the city walls fell, "people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city."

"So THAT THE PEOPLE WENT  >>> UP<<< "   vs.20

The fall of Jericho pre-shadows so beautifully.
++++++++++++++++++++++=============================

Just as Old Testament Israel later fell into spiritual harlotry and fell away into apostasy and was desolated by Jesus (behold, your house is made desolate..." Mat. 23:38),
so has most of NT (New Testament) Israel also fallen away into sectarian apostasy and is warned of "the abomination of desolation" (see Mark 13:14/ 2Thess 2:4/ Mat 24:15) 

Annihilationism Cessationism Does Not Add Up

After the body dies, what happens?
A number of words are used in regard to what comes to pass: forever, eternal, everlasting.

( you may want to see the article "Where Did Hell Go?" on this site where these terms are defined.)

What I  have observed in regard to this everlasting subject is that scoffers are zealous in promoting their ideas that contradict the plain reading of God's Word. In doing so they become evangelists for a lie. 2. They will use human reasonings and emotional trigger words to attack what scripture says. ex.: "is God an eternal torturer??"


Isa_33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness has surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall live with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

Mat_18:8 Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. (WHAT KIND OF FIRE?)

Mat_25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
Mat_25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment:
(HOW LONG IS THE PUNISHMENT?) but the righteous into life eternal. 

2Th_1:9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction
(YES DEATH & DESTRUCTION BUT HOW LONG IS THIS DESTRUCTION?)

Jude1:6 And the angels which kept not their first estate (heaven), but left their own habitation, he has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness to the judgment of the great day. 

(( these wicked angels will be released upon earth during the great day/ tribulation ))

Rev. 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. (rev 9. rev 11. rev 17. rev 20 also speak of the bottomless pit)

Rev. 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (HOW LONG?)
Rev_14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever:
(HOW LONG IS THE TORMENT?) and they have no rest day nor night.

Jude 1:13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

2Pe_2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.

• "...and man became a living soul..." 
• Nowhere do I read where a soul ceases to exist.
  Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived *them* was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet; 
• 
  WHO is "them" and "they"?
   and *they* shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
  answer: back in vs.5
  The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years should be finished.

Souls:
Genesis 2:7 And YHWH God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life
and man became a living soul.

Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die.

Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
The souls of lost men receive resurrected bodies also in Rev. 20:5
Death of the body that houses the soul that God created does not become annihilated, but is judged "according to his works".

-If annihilation was true, there is no cause for judgment of each soul works because all lost receive the same same annihilation.
But Jesus taught some receive "greater judgment".......

How can some receive "greater judgment" if the lost are all simply "annihilated"?

………………
Reason annihilation is error:

This passage shows some things that refute some previous things said about God creating life.
Revelation 17:8 The beast that you saw was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

-there is no time in eternity, time itself is a creation. ("time shall be no more") All life goes into eternity... eternal life is timeless and eternal torment is timeless...

 I would agree the judgment is eternal, meaning forever fixed. "where the tree falls, there shall it lie". But eternal judgment is not the cessation of consciousness and existence because the "beast", "false prophet", devil, all suffer eternal torment...

The pit, bowels of the earth, smoke, etc.. are never said to cease.

There's a beast, which WAS, and IS NOT, and yet this "beast" shall ascend out of somewhere.. and go somewhere.

 It is a beast which "is not", yet "IS". -And this "beast" has been some where, i.e. "the pit".

..........

Job 33:18 He keeps back his soul from the pit

Psalms 28:1 to thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me,

===> I become like them that go down into the pit.<===

===> Ezekiel 26:20 When I shall bring thee down *with them that descend into the pit*, with the people of old time, and shall set thee in ===> the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit...

Rev 9:2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened ===> by reason of the smoke of the pit.<==

Revelation 17:8 The beast that you saw was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder,

===> whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world... <===

Revelation 14:11 ==>And the smoke of their torment <== ascends up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his name.

..................

The beast does not cease, the pit does not cease, the smoke of their torment does not cease, the devil goes there and does not cease to exist in torment, and the devil does not even have an earthly physical body.

...........................

Isaiah 14:15 Yet yhou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell.....

Proverbs 9:18 But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.

Isaiah 5:14 Therefore hell has enlarged herself,

Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. -and he gave an example of this in Luke 16 of the rich man in tormented flame.

SUMMARY:
"The SUM of thy Word is truth"
For anihilationism to be true (it is also Jehovah Witness doctrine BTW), it would need to reconcile with scripture "line upon line, line upon line". But it runs smack into scripture that tells us death is the final judgment, and the place of death is in a lake of fire that burns forever and ever.
==> Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell..... NOT cessation of existence.
Revelation 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascends up
 ===> for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night <===, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his name.
-NOT they cease to exist for ever
"they have no rest" NOT: they cease to exist and have no rest.
Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived *them* was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet;
WHO is "them" and "they"?
==> and *they* shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.<===
answer: back in vs.5
The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years should be finished. 

NOT: they cease to exist.
DOES THE DEVIL CEASE TO EXIST?
Mat 25:41 Then shall he say also to them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
DOES the "everlasting fire" cease to exist?
The "cursed go to the "everlasting fire prepared for the devil and demons.
Does the devil and demons cease to exist?

 They do not have mortal flesh bodies either, but somehow the "everlasting fire" is where they go also.
.........
Rev_9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. (rev 9. rev 11. rev 17. rev 20 also speak of the bottomless pit)

Rev_20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (HOW LONG?)

Rev_14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: (HOW LONG WAS THEIR TORMENT?) and they have no rest day nor night.

Jude 1:13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

2Pe_2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
.......

The SUM of thy Word is truth. Cessation-annihilationism does not add up.

Rapture When: Resolved by Resurrection

by rory moore

A Rapture When? Let's make it a Simple Truth  II

Did Paul write of a POST or PRE -tribulation "gathering" (aka "rapture") ?? 
Let's see...
1. as he wrote in 1 Thess 4:16-18  .... the dead in Christ are raised FIRST.

And so we have the KEY QUESTION: WHEN are the dead raised? 

We will use the key to prove the "rapture" for "our gathering", and including those "who are alive and remain" living, and the preceding mention of the dead in Christ who rise FIRST. 

Because we find in 1Cor 15:51-52 for us to see the Resurrection:
 "Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will ALL be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the ***LAST*** TRUMPET; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed."
 
So we note "ALL" are "changed" on the same day.

When the dead in Christ are "raised", it is the "resurrection".
Jesus taught on the resurrection four times in John 6 when He
said  He will raise ALL who have believed on Him on the last day. (John 6:39,40,44,54). 

Those who are "raised" < i.e. "changed" > are raised on the same day.
There is only ONE (first) resurrection of the saints in Christ..
 Jesus is gathering His elect, His people, after the tribulation (Matt 24:29-31).  There is not a separate gathering for one group of Jews after a "raptured" church, because John SAW martyred saints from all tribes tongues, and nations that "came out of great tribulation".

Rev. 7: I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, from every nation and of all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands;
 10 and they cry with a great voice, saying, Salvation unto our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying to me, 

These that are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and from where came they? 
14 And I said to him, My lord, you know. And he said to me, 

These are they that come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.  (note: NOT Jews only)

The last trumpet sounds on the last day, and Jesus said that was after the tribulation (Matt 24:29-31). Jesus and Paul agree on the timing and it is not pre-tribulation, but "AFTER the tribulation".

When you see the correct order and time of the resurrection, when "we shall be changed", the when and who fall right into place and the "pre-trib" explanations and reasonings, are all answered. 

The "first resurrection" is specific in Revelation 20:4-6.
Who is in the "first resurrection" after the tribulation?

Here is the simple truth:

Rev. 20:4   And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them:

 === > and I saw the souls of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus

and for the word of God, and such as worshiped not the beast, neither his image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand;

and they lived, and reigned with Christ a thousand years.  
5 …….. This is the first resurrection.

....  The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years should be finished.

6)   Blessed and holy is he that has part in the first resurrection
over these the second death hath no power; but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

The first resurrection  of  “them that are fallen asleep” that is near simultaneous with the "harpazo" of 1Thess. 4 and 1Cor. 15  is in Rev 20 and includes the martyred tribulation saints!

That's right, there is only ONE "first resurrection" of those "in Christ" and it includes them that refuse the mark during the tribulation. All are "raptured" together in the "first resurrection.
Therefore there simply cannot be a "pre- or mid trib rapture" because all living and dead in Christ are gathered  at the same time, "in a moment, and in the twinkling of an eye..".

And that is the simple truth.

An Accurate End-Time Warning

Prophecy by Stanley Frodsham 1965  

Great darkness is coming upon the countries that have heard My gospel but no longer walk in it. My wrath shall be manifested against all ungodliness. It shall come with great intensity. My judgments are literal, and not a thing to be lightly passed over. Before I visit the nations in judgment, I will begin at My house.
When I do cause My wrath to come upon the cities of the world, My people shall be separate. I desire a people without spot or wrinkle, and such shall be preserved by Me in the time of My wrath coming upon all iniquity and unrighteousness.

I am going to prepare you for the coming days by a hard path that will cause you to cry out continually unto Me. For when the going is easy, men do not seek Me, but rejoice in a temporary blessing. And when that blessing is removed, they so often turn this way and that way, but do not come to Me. I am showing you these things that you may seek Me continually and with great diligence. As you seek Me, I will open up truths to you that you have not seen before, truths that will enable you to stand in the last days.

Coming Glory and Deceiving Spirits

When I visit My people in mighty revival power it is to prepare them for the darkness ahead. With the glory shall come great darkness, for the glory is to prepare My people for the darkness. I will enable My people to go through because of the visitation of My Spirit. Take heed to yourselves lest ye be puffed up and think that you have arrived. 
Listen to the messengers, but do not hold man's persons in admiration. For many whom I shall anoint mightily with signs and miracles shall become lifted up and shall fall by the wayside. I do not do this willingly; I have made provision that they might stand.

I call many into this ministry and equip them, but remember that many shall fall. They shall be like bright lights, and the people shall delight in them. But they shall be taken over by deceiving spirits, and shall lead many of My people astray.

Hearken diligently concerning these things, for in the last days shall come seducing spirits 1Timothy 4:1) that shall turn many of My anointed ones away.
Many shall fall through divers lusts and because of sin abounding.
But if you will seek Me diligently I will put My Spirit within you (Ezekiel 36:27).
When one shall turn to the right hand or to the left hand, you shall not turn with them, but keep your eyes wholly on the Lord.  (seek His  Word, His Spirit, His Presence)
The coming days are the most dangerous, difficult and dark, but there shall be a mighty outpouring of My Spirit upon many cities; and many shall be destroyed.
My people must be diligently warned concerning the days that are ahead. Many shall turn after seducing spirits; many are already seducing My people. It is those who do righteousness that are righteous.
Many cover sins by great theological words, but I warn you of seducing spirits who instruct My people in an evil way.

Many shall come with seducing spirits and hold out lustful enticements.
You will find that after I have visited My people again, the way shall become more and more narrow, and fewer shall walk therein.
But, be not deceived, the ways of righteousness are My ways. For though Satan come as an angel of light (II Corinthians 11:13-15), hearken not to him; for those who perform miracles and speak not righteousness are not of Me.
I warn you with great intensity that I am going to judge My house and have a church without spot or wrinkle when I come.

I desire to open your eyes and give you spiritual understanding that you may not be deceived, but may walk in uprightness of heart before Me, loving righteousness and hating every evil way.
Look unto Me, and l, will make you to perceive with the eyes of the Spirit the things that lurk in darkness, that are not visible to the human eye.
Let Me lead you in this way that you may perceive the powers of darkness and battle against them. It is not a battle against flesh and blood, for if you battle in that way, you accomplish nothing.
But if you let Me take over and battle against the powers of darkness, then they are defeated; and then liberation is brought to My people.

The Way of Deceivers

I  warn you to search the Scriptures diligently concerning these last days, for the things that are written shall indeed be made manifest.
There shall come deceivers among My people in increasing number, who shall speak forth the truth and shall gain the favor of the people, for the people shall examine the Scriptures and say, "What these men say is true." Then when they have gained the hearts of the people, then and then only shall they bring out these wrong doctrines.
Therefore, I say that you should not give your hearts to men, nor hold people's persons in admiration. For by these very persons shall Satan enter into My people.

Watch for seducers 1Timothy 3:13).
Do you think a seducer will brandish a new heresy and flaunt it before the people? He will speak the words of righteousness and truth and will appear as a minister of light, declaring the Word.
The people's hearts shall be won; they will bring out their doctrines, and the people shall be deceived.

The people shall say, "Did he not speak thus and thus? And did we not examine it from the Word? Therefore he is a minister of righteousness. That he has now spoken we do not see in the Word, but it must be right, for the other things he spoke were true."

Be not deceived, for the deceiver will first work to gain the hearts of many and then shall bring forth his insidious doctrines.
You cannot discern those who are of Me and those who are not of Me when they start to preach.
But seek Me constantly, and then when these doctrines are brought out, you shall have a witness in your heart that these are not of Me. Fear not, for I have warned you.
Many will be deceived, but if you walk in holiness and uprightness before the Lord, your eyes shall be opened, and the Lord will protect you. If you will constantly look unto the Lord, you will know when the doctrine changes, and you will not be brought into it.
If your heart is right, I will keep you, and if you will look constantly to Me, I will uphold you.

The minister of righteousness shall be on this wise: his life shall agree with the Word, and his lips shall give forth that which is wholly true, and it will be no mixture.
When the mixture appears, then you will know he is not a minister of righteousness.
The deceivers speak first the truth and then error to cover their own sins, which they love. Therefore, I exhort and command you to study the Scriptures relative to seducing spirits, for this is one of the great dangers of these last days.

I desire you to be firmly established in My Word, and not in the personalities of men, that you will not be moved as so many shall be moved. I would keep you in the paths of righteousness. Take heed to yourselves, and follow not the seducing spirits that are already manifesting themselves.
Diligently inquire of Me when you hear something that you have not seen in the Word, and do not hold people's persons in admiration, for it is by this very method that Satan will hold many of My people.

The Way of Triumph

I  have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly, that you may triumph where I triumphed. On the cross I triumphed over all the powers of Satan, and I have called you to walk the same path. It is when your life is on the cross that you shall know the victory that I have experienced. As you are on the cross and seated in Me, then you shall know the power of the resurrection.

When I come in My glory, the principalities and powers in the heavenly places shall be broken. Fret not, for I have given you power whereby you may tread down the powers of darkness and come forth victoriously. It was on the cross that I triumphed over all the powers of the enemy. My life shall flow through you as you enter into these precious truths. Look unto Me, and appropriate My life. As your eyes and desires are toward Me, and you know what it is to be crucified with Me, then you shall live, and your anointing shall increase.

It was not in My life that I walked upon the earth, but it was in My life when I was upon the cross that I openly spoiled principalities and powers (Colossians 2:15). I am showing you truth that shall cause you to overcome, to have power over the wicked one-truth that will liberate you and those around you. You shall know also the fellowship of My sufferings. There is no other way whereby you may partake of this heavenly glory and reign with Me. "If we suffer, we shall reign with Him" (II Timothy 2:12 KJV).


I desire to make these truths real within you. As you keep them before you, you will liberate many who are in bondage. You will have revelations of those in darkness and will have the keys to liberate the captives.
Many seek to liberate, but they have not the keys. Upon the cross continually you will know the power of My resurrection that you may also partake of My glory.

As you are willing to walk with Me and rejoice in your sufferings, you shall partake of My glory. Look unto Me, for ye have need of power to overcome the wicked one and the bondage in other lives.

If you will indeed judge yourself, you shall not be judged 1Corinthians 11:31).
As you seek My face and desire to be cleansed by Me in all truth and sincerity of heart, I will judge you in the secret place, and the things that are in the secret place of your heart shall not be made manifest to others. I will do it in the secret place, and no man shall know it, and the shame that shall be seen on many faces shall not be seen on your face. Therefore, in love and mercy I am instructing you, and, therefore, have I said that if a man judge himself, he shall not be judged. It is not My good pleasure that the shame of My people be seen by all. How can I judge the world if I judge not first My own house? Hearken unto these things I am telling you. If you will not hearken to Me, your shame shall be evident to all.


God's Part and Our Part

I would have you consider My life on earth-the anointing upon Me was great. Yet the temptations were great on every side, in one form and then in another, offering Me first the glory of the kingdoms of the earth, and then reviling and persecuting Me. There will be great glory given to My people, and yet the temptations shall be intensified from every side. Think not that with the glory there shall be no temptations or persecutions.
The glory to My church shall be great, and so shall the temptations from the enemy to turn My people from My paths. I am warning you that when the glory shall be manifested, the temptations shall be great, until very few that start shall finish.



First, there shall be offered them great worldly possessions, and then great revilings and unbelief.

Consider your Lord, that as He walked, so it shall be for you. There shall be need of great intensity of purpose.
At times, everyone shall rise up against you, simply to turn you from the course that I would put you on. It is written of Me that I set My face as a flint to go the direction My Father had prescribed for Me Isaiah 50:7). If you will finish the course the Lord has laid down for you, you will have to set your face as a flint with great determination-you must walk in the course laid down for you.
Many of your loved ones and those who follow with you shall persuade you and try to turn you from the course. With many words that seem right in the natural will they speak to you. Did not Christ rebuke Peter, who would turn Him from the course God had prescribed? (Matthew 16:22, 23)

Understand these two things and meditate upon them solemnly: the persecution and the darkness shall be as great as the glory, in order to try to turn the elect and the anointed ones from the path the Lord has laid down for them.
Many shall start, but few shall be able to finish because of the greatness of grace that shall be needed to be able to endure unto the end.
The temptation and persecution of your Lord was continuous. He was tempted by Satan in many forms throughout His entire life, and even on the cross when the ungodly cried out, "If thou be the Christ, come down from the cross."
Think not that there shall be a time of no persecution, for it shall be from the time of your anointing unto the end-difficulties and great persecution to the end. The Lord must prepare you to be an overcomer in all things, that you may be able to finish the course.
The persecution shall increase, even as the anointing shall increase.

In paths of judgment and righteousness shall the Lord God lead His people and bring them into that place which He has chosen for them. For the Lord has chosen a place for His people, a place of righteousness and holiness where He shall encamp round about them, and all who will be led of the Lord shall be brought into this holy place, for the Lord delights to dwell in His people and to manifest Himself through His people. The holiness of the Lord shall be manifested through his people. Let the Lord lead you in difficult places. He led His people of old through the place where no man dwelt, where no man had passed through- in a place of great danger, and in the shadow of death. The Lord will indeed lead His people through such places, and yet He will bring them out into a place of great glory. Understand that the way toward the glory is fraught with great danger, and many shall fall to the right or to the left; many shall camp on lesser ground, but the Lord has a place of holiness, and no unclean things shall dwell among His people.

Put your trust in Him, and He will bring you into a place of holiness. He desires to bring His people into great glory, the like of which has never been seen: what the Lord will do for those who put their trust in Him.
It is a place of darkness and great danger that separates His people into the place He would have them walk in. He will protect them from the voices that would turn them from His path.
He will bring them through the dark places, and through the treacherous paths, out into the light of His glory. He will rejoice greatly over His beloved, and cause you to be filled with joy unspeakable. He seeks to lead His people into a new place of grace and glory where He will indeed encamp among them. Put your trust in Him, and He will surely bring you into this new place.

Fear not the days to come, but fear this only: that you shall walk in a manner pleasing to the Lord.
In this time I am ordering and setting up My church, and it shall indeed be pure, without spot or wrinkle. I will do a work in My beloved that has not been seen since the foundation of the world. I have shown you these things that you may seek the Lord diligently with all your heart, and that you may be a preserver of His people.

Run not to this one nor to that one,
for the Lord has so ordained that salvation is in Him, and in Him alone.
You shall not turn to this shepherd, or to that one; for there shall be a great scattering upon the earth.

Therefore, look unto Him, for He will indeed make these things clear to you.
You shall not look here nor there, for wells that once had water shall be no more. But, as you diligently seek Him, He shall increase your strength and your faith that He may be able to prepare you for this time that is coming.


The truths that I have revealed to you must become a part of you, not just an experience, but a part of your very nature.
Is it not written that I demand truth in the inward parts? It is the truth of the Lord expressed in your very being that shall hold you. Many shall experience the truth, but the truth must become a part of you-your very life.
As men and women look upon you, they will hear not only the voice, but see the expression of the truth. Many shall be overcome because they are not constant in My ways, and because they have not permitted the truths to become part of them. I am showing you these truths that you may be prepared and having done all, to stand.
