The Bible does not say that the church is going to be ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต the hour in Revelation 3:10. It says the church is going to be ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ the hour. Now, if you actually know the English language and you're not going to play theological gymnastic games with the English language, ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต and ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ are very ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ words with very ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ meanings and very ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ significances and very ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ applications for the passage at hand. If the hour of trial comes upon the entire planet and we are kept ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ that hour of trial then we must be ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ from the planet. If we are not ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ from the planet when the hour of trial has come upon the entire planet, then we are not ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ the hour. We could be ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต the hour. We cannot be ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ the hour. And the Bible states that we will be ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ the hour. Folks, again scripture cannot be broken.

TO TASTE A REAL REVIVAL Oh, that we might see a fresh outpouring of God's power! Not merely outward excitement, but a true work of the Spirit that awakens sleeping hearts, purifies our faith, and turns us back to the Lord. We need the living waters to flow again. We need the old, old Gospel proclaimed with power, conviction, and love. We need hearts melted by the truth, souls delivered from sin, and lives transformed by the saving grace of Jesus Christ. May the self-sufficient be humbled, the worldly awakened, the weary refreshed, and the sin-burdened find redemption. May those who have been bound be set free to rejoice in their Saviour! Oh, for a work of God that goes beyond temporary emotion, a work marked by repentance, holiness, genuine faith, and fruit that endures unto eternity. Lord, revive Thy people. Let the Gospel have its fullest sway. And let the glory belong to Thee alone.

OBSERVATION According to Jesus everyone will remain together until the harvest then tares will be gathered and burned not left behind while the wheat are snatched away. No rapture According to Jesus and that's all that matters. ANSWER This is an assumption that ignores some of the data. John 14:1-3 says that the next time that the Lord physically interacts with his saints, he will take them to the Father's house in heaven. That can't be at the second coming, because he is coming to earth to stay at that time. This implies a pretrib rapture. Matt. 24:36-44 says the Lord will come like a thief in the night and catch the world unawares. This can't happen at the second coming. Then the armies of the world will gather at the right time and place to meet the Lord in battle. This can only happen prior to the tribulation. As Noah entered the ark before the flood judgment started. So the church will enter the heavenly ark before the last days judgment starts. The rapture is the morning star of the day of the Lord. The tribulation is the dawning of the day of the Lord. The second coming is the sunrise (arrival) of the day of the Lord. The thousand years is the day of the Lord proper. The rapture is the apantesis of the parousia (See 1 Thess. 4:13-18). The second coming is the parousia. The saints go out to meet the coming king to join him in his royal entrance.

PRAYING IN EVERY SEASON Sometimes we need a good dose of trying circumstances to teach us to pray as we ought. When life is comfortable, it's easy to get careless in our prayers and take God's provision for granted. But when trials come, we're reminded just how much we need Him, and we cry out for His help. Prayer shouldn't be reserved for times of desperation. We need the Lord just as much in times of plenty as in times of trouble. We need His wisdom, strength, grace, and provision every single day. Sometimes He delivers us from the trial. Other times, He gives us the grace to endure it. Either way, He is faithful. Imagine how different our walk with Christ might be if we prayed for faith, holiness, and devotion with the same urgency that we pray for our daily needs! We are all needy pilgrims journeying through a barren land. The world cannot sustain us. We must learn to look to the Lord, not just when trouble comes, but every day. โ€œPray without ceasing.โ€ (1 Thessalonians 5:17) May you all hunger for and be filled with that joy that is only found in Jesus, the joy that the world cannot give and cannot take away.

A PASSION FOR WALKING WITH CHRIST God made us to be go-getters, diligent, purposeful, and eager to put our God-given abilities to work. Because He wired us this way, we feel uneasy inside when we become lazy, aimless, or haphazard. This inward emptiness leads to sin. As the old proverb says, โ€œidle hands are the devilโ€™s workshop.โ€ Indeed, the strongest believer can fall if he is not busy. David fell with Bathsheba because he stayed home rather than going to war. But God also designed us to have our priorities right. โ€œWisdom is the principal thing. Get wisdom. And with all thy getting, get understandingโ€ (Proverbs 4:7). God wants us to be go-getters in our relationship with Him, to be hungry and excited to grow in His Word, learn His will and ways, help others, and promote the gospel and glory of God. By all means, be diligent. But make sure your priorities are right. Keep Jesus the hottest fire in your heart. Otherwise, you may remain a go-getter in earthly matters while becoming spiritually lukewarm. May you find yourself in awe as you walk intimately with our awesome Saviour.

QUESTION I was wondering if there was two Gog and Magog wars. ANSWER Yes. The first one is the attempted invasion of Israel by Russia, Turkey, Iran and their allies after the rapture and before the start of the seventieth week and the rise of the antichrist. It is the final effort in this age of the Gog and Magog nations (the northern hordes) to challenge the God-established empire authority over the Middle East (Babylonian, Persian, Greek, Rome and final Rome). At the end of the millennium, there is another Gog and Magog effort to challenge and overthrow the God-ordained government of the kingdom (the kingdom of God).

ITโ€™S JUST A LITTLE THING How many times have you heard Christians defend compromise with the excuse, โ€œItโ€™s just a little thingโ€? Size has never determined the seriousness of disobedience. Whether the compromise seems great or small, it remains a departure from the revealed will of God. If God has forbidden something, it is forbidden, regardless of how insignificant we think it may be. If God has commanded something, it is commanded. Our responsibility is not to decide which instructions matter, but to submit to what God has said. Consider Adam and Eve. Their fall came over a piece of fruit. There was nothing inherently wrong with the fruit. What made eating it wrong was simple: God had forbidden it. Adam's disobedience demonstrated whether man would submit to God's authority or usurp His place and determine right and wrong for himself. That same serpentine spirit is alive today. It has crept into Evangelicalism, where multitudes are questioning and reinterpreting the plain teachings of Scripture on morality, the distinction of the sexes, headship, sexual conduct, modesty, and other matters. Beware of the endless variations of โ€œHath God said?โ€ Do not allow the world's thinking to reshape what God has plainly revealed in His Word. No compromise is insignificant when it means departing from the revealed will of God.

QUESTION How do you reconcile Gog/Magog with the tribulation period? ANSWER Gog and Magog is a select group of nations. Armageddon is all the nations of the earth. Gog and Magog removes Russia, Turkey, and Iran from the struggle for Middle East domination, leaving a vacuum for the antichrist to step into.
