There is no doubt that we are living in the end times. The prophecies throughout the scriptures that point to the times in which we live are quickly coming to pass. At the same time, more and more within the modern day religious culture are blurring the good news gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ -- the truth of the Lord Jesus the Christ replaced by man-made teachings and the traditions of men. As the scripture saith, these are of "one mind."
Indeed, at no point in history have we seen such determination to promote traditions of scriptures and man-made creeds over the Word of God. (Acts 2:36) Rather, these emerging self-proclaimed (standing in far too many pulpits) are preparing to make war with the Lamb -- the same Lamb who shall overcome them -- for He is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and they that are with Him are called, chosen and faithful. (Revelation 17:12-14; Revelation 1:8, 11)
As Jesus said, "And, behold, I come quickly, and My reward [is] with Me, to give every man according as his works shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." (Revelation 22:12-13; Isaiah 40:10; Isaiah 41:4; Isaiah 62:11)
From Revelation 5:
"And I saw in the right hand of Him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?" And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
And one of the elders saith unto me, "Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne. And when He had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
And they sung a new song, saying, "Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; and hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth."
And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing."
And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, "Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto Him that sits upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever." And the four beasts said, "Amen." And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped Him that liveth for ever and ever." (Revelation 5:1-14)
Note that these did not say "amen" to some man-made creed that pastors ask the congregation to repeat. Neither do they say "amen" to a them -- a false God in three persons/triad/tri-une god/trinity that the modern day religious culture has wrongly attached itself to. Rather, to Him -- singular -- who sits upon the throne -- unto the Lamb forever and ever, may blessing and honour and glory and power be. To Jesus -- who is the Author and Finisher of our faith.
But those with one mind are determined to keep you from searching the scriptures for the Great I AM -- the Way, the Truth, and the Life. (John 14:6) These don't want you to know that this same Jesus whom ye have crucified is both Lord and Christ. (Acts 2:36) Nevertheless, for those who believe on the Lord Jesus the Christ with all their hearts, souls, minds, and strength can be assured that their Lord God and Saviour is returning to gather unto Himself a bride.
This is the reason why the body of Christ church, wherein Jesus is the Head of the Church are "looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ." (Titus 2:13; Acts 20:28)
For He -- our Lord God and Saviour Jesus the Christ -- will reign for evermore. Today is the day of salvation! It is also time to come out from among her, My people, and search the scriptures yourself for that blessed assurance and understanding. Again, as Jesus said, "I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man [or woman] comes to the Father but by Me!" (John 14:6-12)
