If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7: 14 Lord, may America turn back to You with repentant hearts this week. Thank you @data_republican for the powerful reminder and your faithful prayers. God bless you and all who stand in the gap!

I remember reading about that type thing with the Covid mRNA products..

The 144k are the Israelite bride of Christ who were martyrs and who rose bodily w him as the first fruits and first redeemed. They are part of the Holy Spirit.

Ah. The Ten Commandments “law” vs the “mosaic law” of death. The punishments for not obeying the first “law”. Also the first “beast”. Moses wrote his law and set them next to the stony tablets in the ark.

One more thing as you’re thinking today. Scripture by definition is the Hebrew OT. Jesus didn’t have a NT. The NT is the complete fulfillment of the OT. Then Paul came along and started writing as he was waking up. Your disagreements come from Paul - who to the Jew became a Jew and to the Greek a Greek. Therein lies the answer.

The image of the beast = king Solomon. Count his number (worth). 1 kings 10:14. 666 the third man king. Following him was death.

I would think that my post would be of particular interest to you. 🥰

The rapture isn't secret, the Bible is actually pretty plain about it. Jesus was the first fruits of the resurrection. Those so get upset about the rapture being taught I've noticed trends to bed things directly spelled out, but very often that's not how scripture works. Look at Jesus, all of the old Testament is filled with tiny prophesy that He will later go on to fulfill. It's not blatantly stated, but you can see those prophesy and piece together the truth about His first coming. This is the same with the rapture. Trying to fuse meeting with Jesus in the sky to go be with Him in the place that He prepares for us simply doesn't fit with His second coming spelled out throughout the entire Bible where we return with Him, not to meet Him. I've yet to see a person explain that fact so try to fuse the gathering of the saints with the second coming. Not to mention, Paul tells us to uplift one another with the gathering of the saints to Christ. During revelation, that's nearly impossible. Christs return isn't something to look forward to when ¾ of the world's population is going to die. Death is what you look forward to so you can be with Him in that way all the sooner because the chance of you living to see His return at that point is nonexistent. Paul lived believing He could see Christs return at any moment. So should we. This is why there is a crown that goes to those who look forward to Christs return, because so many like this call it a doctrine of Satan to teach that it could be any moment.

Let me ask you something if I may. Did Jesus pick Paul as one of the 12? If not, have you done a deep dive on him?

A sharp, successful young man I know recently told me he is sweating his first dinner with his girlfriend’s family. He thinks she’s the one. He doesn’t want to mess this up. Listen up. They aren’t interviewing you. You’re interviewing them. Your future wife is a product of the people who raised her. If they’re decent, solid, optimistic, and morally upright, you’ve hit the jackpot. Take it. But if they’re corrupt, cruel, or hollow, think long and hard before you put a ring on her finger. No, this isn’t a claim that women with rough childhoods or lousy parents can’t find a good path and become wonderful moms. Many do. Some of the strongest women you’ll ever meet were raised by wolves. But she’s running the race twenty yards behind, and you need to know that going in. You aren’t marrying a woman. You’re marrying a family. Warts, scars, holidays, and all. Cinderella and Pretty Woman aren’t just stories about the women. They’re stories about the men too. Good men carry something in their wiring that wants to rescue women with sad histories. That instinct isn’t a flaw. It’s part of what makes a man worth marrying. But you have to walk in with your eyes wide open, not your heart leading the way. And if her father doesn’t ask you hard questions, be afraid. Good fathers don’t sit back and watch their daughters marry strangers. Good fathers don’t let their daughters marry degenerates without a fight. If she really is the one, a little tension at that dinner table is the best outcome you can hope for. It means both sides are paying attention. It means both sides care.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Believe me, I know. My wife and I both lost our Dads before we met, and we trauma bonded hard. Her dad was hard on her, and she didn’t talk about him much. He had some bad moments too from PTSD and was wounded from a grenade as an infantry Sargent in Nam. It took years for me to understand who he was. ✅ Church every Sunday ✅ Decorated war hero ✅ Boy Scout leader ✅ Upright NYPD officer So much more, those are just the highlights. Nothing has contributed more to my happiness and the health and success of my kids than this man and woman in the photo. A man I never once met. A woman who was grieving when I met her. He died on the job in his forties. I’m saying all this because I dodged a bullet. I went into marriage blind. I got incredibly lucky that Herbert Miller was a stand-up guy. I owe Herbert everything I cherish most in life. A man I never met. A man I don’t even have many photos of because it was he who always held the camera. And I owe the woman who raised four great kids then lost her love too young. Happy Mother’s Day, Carol. I’m deeply sorry we couldn’t be there when you died during COVID. I pray you and Herb are together again and I pray I get to meet Herb one day in the far future. Thank you for raising a wonderful, strong, and brilliant daughter.
