an important time
Greetings in the name of Jesus:
We have just experienced together the value and the majesty of God's gift to us through the Easter Celebrations. As this year progresses I feel we as Christians will likely experience the start of the persecutions of the end times. I have often thought about the 2012 calendar of the Enka's ending, and what that meant...I consider that to be a sign of the beginning of the end rather than an end in itself. Everything is in its place for the signs to begin to take effect in our country and in our world.
For me personally there are many signs that tell me time is short, and so I want to try as much as I can to encourage you to continue to follow your heart in Christ Jesus. We know the mission of what the church should be through the Spirit of God...we simply need that push to put us over the edge to proclaim what God has done for us to the world around us.
This world is not going to help us or soften toward us in any way or to the message of Jesus that we proclaim to us. As time goes on it will not get any easier for us to stand for the message that God has given to us; in fact we may have to suffer great loss in this life to do so before He comes again. The parables that we have studied, and continue to study are simply lessons from God as to how to live out the principals of God's heart. They become the core values that God wants for us to have in life, and those core values begin with each other as an example to the world of what it is to have a family in Christ. We cannot hope to show any kind of truth through words alone...it is only through actions taken that shows love to one another that the world will be drawn to seek out what we have that they do not.
I know in my heart that each of you have that kind of love in you; but I also know that you are hesitant to show it for some fear of rejection or ridicule. If you can really say that you believe then it should not matter what others think . We have long said that we don't care what others think until we get into a situation like this where our true heart is laid out on the line. We are being judged by the hearts of those who do not know Christ...those who remain in the dark, and without the guidance of love through God's Spirit. That is why it is so important for us to be able to share that love and truth with one another as an example of what it does for any life given to God. These are indeed important times...not just for us , but for them as well. For us it is a chance to grow in our faith, and for them it becomes a life and death decision. My dear ones I want for you to know that I believe in you...I believe in your ability to testify in any condition that this world puts you into. Stay centered in Jesus my friends...run the race that is placed before you because you are the light of the world, and the salt of this earth. It is your testimony that will save souls and reap harvests for the Kingdom of God. May you richly bless God through your life in Him.
