A look into history will quickly convince any interested person that the true church has almost always suffered more from prosperity than from poverty. - AW Tozer
Your trial is similar to what most of God’s children have suffered. You think you are sailing an unknown sea, but you are only following the saint’s ordinary route around that cape of storms. When that cape of storms is better known, it will be your Cape of Good Hope.
Spurgeon
Are you ready to meet our Savior in the clouds? The time is short, the hour draws near. Do not be deceived by the ways of this world, for the great tribulation approaches. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved! 🕊 His word is clear... ☝🏽Don't be left behind, Satan is coming to deceive this world. He will take his place in the future Third Temple and will bring false peace, posing as God. And when the world says, "Peace and safety," all hell will break loose.
Follow Jesus today; tomorrow it may be too late.
The difference between 'the Rapture' and 'the second coming'
At the Rapture, Jesus comes for His saints. At the Second Coming He comes with His saints.
At the Rapture Jesus doesn’t come all the way to earth. At the Second Coming, His feet touch down on the Mount of Olives.
Harpazō (ἁρπάζω) word is used in the original Koine Greek manuscripts of the New Testament 2000 year old, specifically in 1 Thessalonians 4:17. It is commonly translated as "caught up" or "snatched away". The word Harpazo means in English Rapture means also"snatched away".
@elonmusk I think he refers to the media "Elon Musks's profound and beautiful words on Charlie Kirk" (Sky News)
Well Elon, it was more profound than YOU realize! In fact, it was a spiritual truth you spoke. Charlie was killed by the dark for telling them about the Light.
#John 14:6
You see, what God will send or allow as a trial to strengthen our faith, Satan will seek to exploit to get us to sin. Conversely, what Satan throws our way as a temptation, God allows to be a trial. Satan wants to use the event to tear us down and wipe us out; God wants to use the same event to show us how faithful He is and how real He can be.

Obeying the King : Matthew 7:24-29
Our sermon from Sunday reminded me of a kelp forest: those long, long stems swaying back and forth in the water. Sometimes the seas will be rough and they would go with the currents, pulling and pushing them. Yet, because of their STRONG foundations they cannot fall! The same with us: if my foundation is on The ROCK I will never fall. I will sway and bend and shake, but my salvation is sure, I am safe!
“Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
“But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”
You can listen the the sermon on YouTube, let it encourage you!
