Jeremiah 12: 5a
5 If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses?

Presently, the problems in the world have overwhelmed everybody, even when JESUS had not taken away his church, what then will it be during the great tribulation when all hell will let loose?

Are you prepared for the great escape? Are you prepared for the blast of the trumpet? make haste to escape with JESUS.

46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

JEWS AND GENTILES, REPENT IN CHRIST JESUS

NIGERIA, AFRICA AND THE WORLD, REPENT IN CHRIST.

TOPIC: THE BOOK WITH 7 SEALS, PART 2 (Revelations 6 vs Mathew 24)

TEXTS: MATHEW 24:1-9, REVELATIONS 6:1-16


MATHEW 24:1-9 (KJV)

24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of

the temple.

2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, tell us, when shall these

things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end-of-world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass,

but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and

earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's

sake.


REVELATIONS 6:1-17

6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four

beasts saying, Come and see.

2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went

forth conquering, and to conquer.

3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the

earth, and that they should kill one another: and

there was given unto him a great sword.

5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse;

and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley

for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, come and see.

8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power

was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the

beasts of the earth.

9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God,

and for the testimony which they held:

10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood

on them that dwell on the earth?

11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little

season, until their fellowservants also and their

brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as

sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a

mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of

their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and

every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and

from the wrath of the Lamb:

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?


INTRODUCTION

In the part 1 of this teaching, we explored the visions of two great servants of GOD, Prophet Daniel and Apostle John,

concerning ‘a book’ they each saw at two different occasions and times. We further tried to prove that both of them saw

the same book, by trying to analyze the similarities between the visions of these two men. However, Daniel made us to

understand that the book he saw had to do with Rapture-of-saints/End-of- world and also that the book contained the

names of those who would be redeemed at that time. To finally ascertain that the book that John saw was the same book

that Daniel saw, we have then to prove that the book that John saw also had to do with Rapture-of- saints/End-of-world

and/or contained the names of those that would be redeemed at that time.


To achieve this, let us compare the visions seen by John after the 7 seals of the book he saw were broken in Revelations

6:1-17, with other Rapture-of-saints/end-of-world accounts. For this purpose, let us compare the visions of John with

the popular mount Olivetti sermon delivered by Our Lord Jesus Christ concerning Rapture-of-saints/end-of-world in Mathew

24:1-9.


MATCHING JOHN’S VISION (REVELATIONS, CHAPTER 6) WITH CHRIST’S TEACHINGS (MATHEW 24:1-9)


i THE FIRST SEAL

After the 1st seal was broken in rev 6:1-2, a white horse with a rider who had a bow and a crown on his head was

released and he went on to conquer and was conquering.

The question we should ask at this junction is: who is this rider that had a crown on his head and was conquering about?

Please, take a minute to solve this puzzle before you continue with the remainder of this teaching. Did you say He was

Jesus? I expected you to say He was Jesus. Many Christians might be tempted to say that the rider was Jesus CHRIST, but

no, they are wrong.

ALERT/CAUTION/WARNING: Just as you just took this rider to be Jesus because he mimicked

Jesus in appearance, the church/body of Christ will also take him to be Jesus when he enters the church. After this

teaching, you should be able to identify this rider in case he enters your place of worship. Now we are going to remove

the mask from the face of this rider/impostor. Before we answer this question, let’s stress that whatever GOD does,

Satan wants to copy GOD and be like GOD. See Isaiah 14:12-14.


Now let us compare Revelations 6:1-2 with Mathew 24:4-5. From the latter, JESUS taught/prophesied that towards HIS

coming i.e. Rapture-of-saints/end of world, many

people who were not CHRIST would go out and parade themselves falsely as Christ and would conquer many Christians by

deception. So, by extension, the man on the white horse in the former, who would parade himself like the real CHRIST is

the false Christ/antichrist who will conquer many churches/Christians and the people of the world by deception. This was

what Paul, The Apostle, was talking about in 2 Thessalonians 2: 3-4 when he said there will be falling away, first, and

then the revealing of the antichrist before JESUS returns to rapture the faithful church. JESUS CHRIST himself foresaw

the extent of the falling away of the church that HE asked in Luke 18:8 whether HE would find believers in genuine faith

when He comes back. The falling away of Christians/churches through deceptions, false teachings, false miracles,

apostasy, lukewarmness and all such would be engineered by the rider of the white horse of rev 6:1-2, the antichrist,

through the spirit of the antichrist.


The spirit of the antichrist would enter the church and pollute the church through false miracles, false gospels,

false doctrines, motivation speaking, introduction of witchcraft in church, ecumenism, worldliness, relegating the word

of God, and many other bastardisations that we have in the church now. So disheartening, many Christians/body of

Christ will call it ‘the move of the Holy Spirit’. They will not be able to discern that it is the spirit of the

antichrist that has entered the church and shooting the church with his bow and arrow, thereby conquering the church.

This spirit will parade himself as prophets, pastors, evangelists, church leaders and other men of God. The church will

think they truly represent Jesus and they will make the elect to fall by deception. Jesus hinted us in Mathew 24:24

in advance but the church still could not recognize because they look so much like true men of God.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets (false pastors inclusive), and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

For our teaching on how to recognize False prophets/pastors, you can send email to raptureglorious@gmail.com or

jesuscoming@yahoo.com. The title of the teaching is ‘Awareness of False Prophets’ or see it here http://www.nairaland.com

/1265235/end-time-bible-teaching-awareness-false.


Finally, to prove that the rider released in revelations 6:1-2 after the first seal was broken was actually not JESUS

CHRIST but the false Christ/antichrist that only wanted to mimic/copy the real CHRIST just like Satan the father of the

false Christ/antichrist also wants to copy GOD, THE FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST as already seen in Isaiah

14 above, let’s read Revelations 19: 11-16 to present the real CHRIST to prove that the rider of revelations 6: 1-2 was

the antichrist/false christ that wanted to copy the real CHRIST.

Revelations 19:11-16

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in

righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were MANY CROWNS; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but

he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod

of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the

fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.


Note the differences: The copy-cat, antichrist, had one crown while the real CHRIST, THE KING of kings and LORD of lords

has many crowns. Jesus uses sword while the copy-cat uses a bow.


ii THE SECOND SEAL

After the second seal was broken in revelations 6: 3-4, a red horse that had a rider was released. The rider had a sword

and was given the task to take away peace on earth and to make people begin to kill themselves.In Mathew 24: 4-7, the

second thing that JESUS prophesied was that there would be wars or absence of peace. By analogy, this prophecy of JESUS

matched with the vision of John that peace would be taken and there would be killings after the second seal was broken.


iii THE THIRD SEAL

After the third seal was broken in revelations 6:5-6, a black horse that had a rider was released. The rider was given a

balance and he was charged to make sure that food was so scarce and expensive and also to make money so worthless

(economic recession and famine). This means famine and economic recession. In Mathew 24:4-7, the third thing JESUS

prophesied about was famine. By analogy, this prophecy of JESUS matched with the vision of John that food would be

scarce and costly after the third seal was broken.


iv THE FOURTH SEAL

After the fourth seal was broken in revelations 6: 7-8, a pale horse that had a rider was released. The rider’s name was

death and hell accompanied him and they were charged to kill a quarter of the people on earth with different kinds of

plagues like hunger, war, diseases, animals, and so on. Another word to summarize all these things is plague or

pestilence. In Mathew 24:4-7, the fourth thing JESUS prophesied about was pestilence and earthquake. Please, note that

earthquake is a kind of plague. By analogy, this prophecy of JESUS matched with the vision of John that there would be

plagues and pestilences after the fourth seal was broken.


v THE FIFTH SEAL

After the fifth seal was broken in rev 6: 9-11, the souls of servants of GOD that had been slain began to cry for

vengeance and they were assured to hold their peace till many more servants were killed. In Mathew 24:9, the fifth thing

JESUS prophesied about was that Christians would be killed and persecuted. By analogy, this prophecy of JESUS matched

with the vision of John that many Christians would be killed.


vi THE SIXTH SEAL

After the sixth seal was broken in rev 6: 12-17, there was massive earthquake, the sun became dark, moon turn to red

blood, stars fells from the sky and the stage was set for the great tribulation. Shortly after these, 144,000 children

of Israel were sealed on their foreheads (rev7:1-, and multitudes that could not be numbered, from all nations and

tribes, who escaped from the great tribulation (by means of rapture) were seen by John in heaven, (rapture). See rev

7:9-14. In Mathew 24:29-31, JESUS prophesied all these things as well and also said that HIS angels would be sent to

gather HIS elects (rapture).


SUMMARY

In summary of this Part 2 of ‘The Book with 7 Seals’, we have proven with all certainties that the vision of ‘The Book

with 7 Seals’ that John saw was also about Rapture-of-saints/End-of-world just like Prophet Daniel’s vision of a book

was also about Rapture-of-saints/End-of-world as mentioned earlier. This was achieved by comparing John’s vision with

the end-of-world teachings/prophecies by Our Lord Jesus Christ on the mount of Olive. Thus with all certainties, the

same book that was earlier seen by Prophet Daniel was also the same book later shown to Apostle John and it is the “book

of life’ that contains the names of the redeemed.


Is your name written in this book? If so, congratulations. But, if not, I urge you to get your name written in this

all-important book before rapture or before you die. What then happened after the 7th seal was broken? Since we all know

that the purpose of the 7 seals was to hide the contents of the book. Once the 7th seal was broken, nothing would be

hidden again about the book and we would have totally unraveled the visions/prophecies contained in the book.

Thus we would end the unraveling of John’s vision of ‘The Book with 7 seals’ here and we begin another series (The 7

Trumpet Judgments) when the 7th seal was broken.


CONCLUSION

The revelations given to John in the book of revelations, chapter 6, were very chronological. They follow in sequential

order until rapture takes place after the breaking of the sixth seal. This is mercy and grace of God not to keep us in

total darkness about the happenstance of rapture. Since, the father had not revealed the day nor the hour of rapture to

anyone, then this chronological revelations can be taken as a guide to let us know how close we are to the main event,

the rapture of the saint. If we observe closely, we would see that the church has fallen away and is still falling away.

There are wars and bloodshed. There is worldwide economic collapse and famine. There are plagues of all types, ranging

from incurable diseases to earthquakes, floodings, plane crashes, tsunamis, climating changes among other. Finally,

there are high rise of attacks on Christians worshippers in many countries of Africa, Asia and Middle East.Many churches

have been bombed in Nigeria, Kenya and many other countries of the world and Christians killed/attacked right inside the

church.


All the things prophesied in Mathew, chapter 24, and later given to Apostle John in chronological order are now

happening. Indeed, the Messiah is coming to rapture the church. Do not wait till the 6th seal become broken till you

give your life to Jesus and begin to prepare for His coming. The little time left is still enough to get ready.

Shalom. JESUS is coming.

0 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but NOW commandeth ALL MEN every where to REPENT:

31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.

33 So Paul departed from among them.

Some were rebuked for being lukewarm. some were rebuked for not evangelising again. some were rebuked for not seeking after the Spirit of God but after material things. none of these were laws of moses. these are some of what the churches of today are guilty of.

Remember, Jesus came to tell John all these things after crucifixion, burial and ascencion. Definitely it was the church he was talking to and He called them by the name of church. Most of the churches were based in gentile nations. so He was not talking to jews in particular.

JESUS understands perfectly what HE said, and John, an apostle of Him also understood perfectly what the Lord meant.

shdemidemi: Compare what you see in those seven chapters to what you see in the epistles written to the church. Therein lies your answer cos you will definitely contradict yourself when you put the bond woman and her son under the same roof with the free woman and her so. LEGALISM AND GRACE cant mix.

shdemidemi: you just quoted the bible there without addressing what I said.

I have observed that most threads lead to argument and confusion. This I strictly want to avoid in order not to derail my purpose and calling. If you have contribution to the thread, post it. If I have contribution, I will post it. The readers and viewers can pray for discernment, pick what they want and discard the rest.

But let me say something to what you posted.

Not the whole of the book of REVELATIONS are post-rapture. Revelations, chapters 1 to chapter 6 are pre-rapture or pre-great-tribulation. I have done a teaching titled THE BOOK WITH THE 7 SEALS (PART 1). I will soon post the (part 2). it will throw more light on this.

The 7 churches that JESUS came to give their report cards to apostle John and told some of them to repent had been established as early as the time of the apostles and they had been falling away as early as that. They are not churches that were yet to be established. Jesus was telling john what the churches had done and not what they will do during any tribulation. If you observe critically, you will see that all those things that JESUS mentioned as the shortcomings of those churches are what are happening in majority of the churches of today. If JESUS told those early churches to repent, is HE going to tell us to just carry on in our own time, even when what we do today in churches are worse than what those early churches did?

rev chapter 1: summarised the encounter of John with JESUS on island of patmos
rev chapter 2 and 3: JESUS gave report of 7 churches
rev chapter 4: described the throne of GOD
rev chapter 5: search for who could break the 7 seals of the book at the right hand side of God.
see my teaching on that https://www.nairaland.com/1325646/end-time-bible-teaching-book-7
rev chapter 6: JESUS begins to break the seals. when HE breaks the 6th seal, rapture happens.

So the church will not have gone until chapter 7 of revelations.

The book of Zechariah you quoted described the 2nd coming of Jesus and not rapture. At that time, He will be coming back with the raptured saints to come and fight the battle of Armageddon.

Revelations 2:16

16 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

JESUS told the church at Ephesus to REPENT [/b]after they believed and fell

5 Remember therefore from whence [b]thou art fallen, and REPENT, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou REPENT.

What HE says to the church, He says even to you that are reading or replying this thread, REPENT.

mark 13:37

37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

JESUS told the church at Ephesus to REPENT[/b]after they believed and fell

5 Remember therefore from whence [b]thou art fallen, and REPENT, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou REPENT.

What HE says to the church, He says even to you that are reading or replying this thread, REPENT.

mark 13:37

37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

GOD that dwells in unapproachable light
HE clothes himself with majesty
HE girds himself with strength
The LORD of Hosts is HIS name.

Hebrews 10: 26-29

26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:

29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

Hebrews 10: 26-27

26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

The bible still recognises that believers can still SIN both wilfully and ignorantly after receiving JESUS.

Additional 2 things that have been revealed include

8. IMMORAL INTERCOURSE IN DREAM ENCOUNTER

When you have such a dream, even if the person you had it with was your husband or wife, please pray and wash yourself in the blood of JESUS. Ask Jesus to wash away any evil associated with the dream.

9. PROCESSED FOODS for babies.

It may sound unbelievabe, satan is really planning OPERATION CATCH THEM YOUNG FOR BABIES.

Pray on your babies food before you feed them.

Shalom.

Praise, the LORD.

I bless the name of the Lord, Halleluyah

shdemidemi: My answer is actually YES.
Romans 10:9

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Why then was Apostle Paul taking caution not to be cast away after he might have preached to others

1 COR 9: 26-27
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

shdemidemi: My answer is actually YES.

I pray that God should speak more to you about your answer in Jesus' name. If you receive anything contrary to your answer, please, come and post it here. It is wonderful sharing knowledge with you. Thank you. Shalom.

When HIV/AIDS was first discovered and government began to warn us, many people rejected it all together.
They said government was trying to control population and were only using AIDS to frighten them from having intercourse.
Some said it never existed. Some even gave the acronym AIDS another meaning: America Idea of Discouraging Sx. They gave all
sorts of excuse not to believe that AIDS was truly real because they never wanted to change their ways. They wanted to continue visiting prostitutes, sleeping with animals, and all sorts. So the only way to encourage themselves in their immoral behaviours was to discard the existence of AIDS. But when they caught AIDS, their belief system changed but it was too late.

Even you, you can say anything you want to say about HELL. Call it fear gospel, call it anything. Perhaps, the rich man said worse things than you are currently saying until he went there to confirm its reality and was just too late for him.
My own is just to warn you, not to end in hell and pray for you as God permits me. I am not to argue with you nor to force you to believe. REPENT in Christ JESUS and begin to live in holiness and righteousness. Shalom.

shdemidemi: @annyplenty, your perspective of the scripture is wrong. When you have the time we can ponder over some issues as regards the OP

Please answer this question:

Will ALL the PEOPLE who have once confessed JESUS as LORD and SAVIOUR make heaven irrespective of what they do after the confession? If your answer is NO, pls expatiate.

shdemidemi: @annyplenty, your perspective of the scripture is wrong. When you have the time we can ponder over some issues as regards the OP

I will be glad to learn what is wrong but I will not want arguement. Kindly tell me where I am wrong.

Dear Poster,

Please let no one mislead you. you can apply the following tips in getting answers to your question.

1) why do you want to apply make-up? necessity or fashion? if the answer is latter, drop it.
2) will Jesus apply make up? be truthful in answering this question. if answer is no, drop it.
3) will my make up glorify God? if no, drop it.
4) if you are not sure still or dont know what to do yet, hold back on applying make up. pray until God speaks to you about it.

God condemns the painting of face in the book of Jeremiah 4:30. Shalom.

You can still decide for Jesus today. According to the Bible, angels rejoice on two occasions:

1) when a sinner repents and his name is written in the book of life, (luke 15 :10).

2) when the bride of Christ prepares herself ready for rapture, (revelations 19:6-9).

Arouse a celebration in heaven today, let your name be written in the book of life and prepare consciously for rapture. shalom.

TOPIC: THE BOOK WITH 7 SEALS (PART1)

TEXTS: REVELATION 5:1-5, DANIEL 12:1-4

REV 5:1-5 (KJV)

5:1 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.

2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

Dan 12:1-4 (KJV)

12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

INTRODUCTION
In our first text, we read a part of the revelation that JESUS CHRIST gave to Apostle John. Here, Apostle John saw a vision of a BOOK that had 7 SEALS and was placed at the right hand of THE ONE, (GOD) who sits on the throne and a call (challenge) was made by an angel for who could break the SEALS but no one was able to break them except JESUS CHRIST.

What is the book about? What are the SEALS meant to do? Why do the seals need to be broken? Before we answer these questions, let’s see what else the Bible has said about the book and the seals through other prophet. For this purpose, let’s go through our second text.

MORE ABOUT THE SEALED BOOK

Daniel 12:1-9

Daniel, the Prophet, saw the vision of a book that contained the names of those that will be saved at the end of the world. Verse 2, particularly describes a part of the rapture of the saints where the dead in Christ will rise first as articulated by Paul, the Apostle, in 1 Thessalonians 4:16.

In verse 4, Daniel was asked to shut up (SEAL) the further words of vision he saw concerning the book till the time of the end. Verses 5 and 6 described how Daniel saw a; ‘man clothed in linen’ say to him when the prophecy shall be fulfilled.

Notice, that the “man clothed in linen’ stood upon the waters of a river and other man stood at the bank of the river. That perhaps suggests that Daniel received his vision near a river.

In verses 8 and 9, Daniel complained that he did not understand the vision, then, the ‘man in linen’ said to him that the further visions about the book are shut up/concealed from Daniel and the book itself was SEALed up.

3 major things can be deduced about the vision of Daniel as follows.
i. The book contains the names of the REDEEMED of the LORD at the end of the world.

ii. The Seal conceals/hides/prevents from our knowledge what will happen at that time of the end of the world when the people whose names are found in the book will be redeemed.

iii. Further visions about the book may be known if the seals are removed or broken.

SIMILARITIES BETWEEN APOSTLE JOHN’ AND PROPHET DANIEL’ VISIONS

1. Both men saw a book. Rev 5:1, Dan 12:1

2. Some things were written inside the books in both cases Rev 5:1, Dan 12:1

3. Both of them saw a book that was either sealed or sealed later Rev 5:1, Dan 12: 4

4. The ‘Personality’ that showed both of them the vision of the sealed book wore either a garment or fine linen in both cases. Rev 1: 12-13, Daniel 12:6-7

5. Both visions were received near a river Rev 1:9, Dan 12: 6-7

Based on these similarities, we can conclude that the same book shown to Prophet Daniel in his vision as documented in the book of Daniel was the same book shown to Apostle John in his vision as documented in the book of Revelations. To buttress this assertion, we will like to draw your attention to Revelations 13:8

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Here, we can see that it was revealed to Apostle John that those whose names were not written in the Lamb’s book of life will worship the antichrist. Those whose names are written in the book of life will have been redeemed (delivered) at rapture and will not worship the antichrist during the great tribulation. This was the exact thing Prophet Daniel was trying to say in Daniel 12:1. We can conclusively say that the book that Prophet Daniel first saw when it was not yet sealed, and had to be sealed later, was the same book Apostle John saw when it had been sealed and it is the book of life.

Apart from the similarities in these particular visions had by these two servants of GOD, which we just listed above, there are other similarities in personalities, lifetimes, ministries, attitudes and visions of Prophet Daniel and Apostle John. We shall treat these in great detail as another topic to come out after the second part of this teaching (Part 2) of ‘the book with 7 seals’.

MAJOR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JOHN’S AND DANIEL’S VISIONS

While Prophet Daniel saw a book which was opened at the beginning but was later closed/sealed because he could not understand the vision contained in the book, Apostle John saw a book which was closed/sealed at the beginning and he could not understand the vision contained inside because the book was sealed and the seals had to be broken or removed first and this necessitated an angel making a call for who could break the seals so that John could understand the visions inside. Jesus Christ eventually broke the seals and John then understood the visions contained in the book (rev 5:5).
This breaking of the 7 seals in John’s vision will form the second part (Part 2) of this teaching since the seals covering the book had been removed and the visions inside made known to John.

SUMMARY

In summary of this Part 1 of ‘The Book with 7 Seals’ let us look at what Prophet Isaiah said in the book of Isaiah 29: 11-12

Isaiah 29:11-12

11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:

12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.

If I were to rephrase verse 11 of Isaiah 29, I would say, supposing a book contained a vision and the book was sealed and the book was given to an educated man to read, the educated man would reply “I cannot read the content of the book because it is sealed’’. This was the exact case of Apostle John. So Isaiah 29:11 perfectly described what happened to Apostle John when He saw the vision of ‘the book with 7 seals’.

If I were to rephrase verse 12 of Isaiah 29, I would say, supposing a book which contained a vision was opened and given to an illiterate to read, the illiterate would simply reply “I cannot read the book because I am not educated” and the owner of the book would just close his book.This was the case of Prophet Daniel. So Isaiah 29:12 perfectly described what happened to Prophet Daniel when He saw an opened book which contained a vision and was asked to close/seal the book because he did not understand the book.

For the riddles of this book to be solved, its 7 seals had to be broken and then the book should be given to a learned man to read.

Now that ‘The Lion of the tribe of Judah’, ‘The Root of David’ ‘The Lamb that was slain from the beginning of the world’ hath prevailed to open the book and to loosen ‘the 7 seals’ of this book, let’s begin to explore the visions of this amazing book that made two great men of GOD to wonder. This exploration will lead us to Part 2 of this teaching. Shalom.

CONCLUSION

The only classification, that matters to God, is whether your name has been written in HIS book of life or not, whether you are on HIS side or on the side of the enemy. There is no sitting on the fence. You cannot be neutral in this case. Even, a decision to be neutral (neither to choose for God nor for satan) is a decision on its own. It is a decision against God.

Has your name been written in this all-important book of life? Do you desire to be delivered (Daniel 12:1) as Prophet Daniel put it? Then seek to write your name inside the book now when you still have the grace to do so.

Do you desire to experience the great tribulation, worship the antichrist (Revelation 13: and end in lake of fire with him (Revelations 14:11)? Then you may seek not to write your name in this book of life, though, I BEG you to act oherwise.

ACTIONS

Are you an elect of Christ? Are you truly saved? Are you on the narrow road? Do you want to make the rapture/heaven? If your answers are yes, then,

• Make all efforts to heed the warnings of Jesus Christ.
• Be watchful. Pay attention to what is happening around the World and see whether they match what the scriptures say.
• Be filled with the Holy Spirit and be in the Spirit all the time.
• Fast, consecrate yourself, run away from sin and worldliness.

If your answers are NO? Why not repent today, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and forsake sins so that your name can be written in the book of life. Please, say this prayer genuinely.

Lord Jesus, please forgive me all my sins. Watch away my sins with your blood and save my soul. I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Write my name in the book of life and help me to make rapture and escape the great tribulations. Give me power not to return to sins in Jesus name. Amen

PRAYERS
• Lord Jesus, please rescue me and my family from the coming tribulation.
• O Lord, do not allow me to worship the antichrist.
• Lord Jesus, Let me escape all traps that Satan has set to make me miss the rapture and the kingdom of God.
• Lord Jesus Christ, forgive me all sins that can make me to miss rapture and the kingdom of God.
• Fill me with the grace to watch and pray.
• Remove my name from those that will worship the antichrist or be here when he shall reign and write my name in book of the reedemed.

WARNING FOR YOUTH

Dear YOUTH and everybody by extension,
On 03/06/2013, GOD asked me to warn youth of both heaven and hell but hell first, then heaven. HE said I should tell you that HELL is a place of weeping, anguish, pain, horror, sorrow and torment for all eternity. He said he has sent a lot pastors to you to warn you about HELL but many did not warn you. If you reject his warning today, HE says your own day of rejection is coming, too. Proverbs 1:23-33

I have once seen the gate of HELL in a vision before. It was more terrible than what you can think and yet people were rushing to enter through it as if they were in a race. I implore you to do everything in your power to escape this place. Give JESUS a chance to save you. Repent of all your sins genuinely and sincerely to Him and do not return to the sins anymore. He will help you if you show genuine readiness.

GOD said I should tell you that HEAVEN is a place of Joy, peace, love, ecstasy and perfect beauty all in the presence of God for all eternity.

As I implore you to escape HELL, I also implore you not to miss this kingdom of God (heaven). Do not trade your eternal glory for worldy vanities. Now I have delivered HIS message to you, too. You may now choose. Please, choose Heaven. Deuteronomy 30:19.

Please, join me to share this message. a soul can still be saved. forward it to any young people you know in your family, in your church, in your place of work. Organise seminars and retreat for youth and warn them about hell.

Thank you. Shalom

SIN is a very terrible and abominable thing before God.

For some teachings i once posted on similar topic, you can see

https://www.nairaland.com/1256318/end-time-bible-teaching-awareness-sin

Dear Brethren,

On the early hours of Thursday, 23/05/2013, it was revealed to me in the dream that THE 5TH SEAL HAD BEEN BROKEN. I was told by a voice that the 5th seal had already been broken. As I was told, I understood the meaning. The breaking of the 5th seal means persecution for the church of Christ. Then I saw myself warning believers to be more alert and watchful when they conduct their services to avert persecutions and attacks.

The book of Revelations, chapter 6, talks about the 7 seals of a book that Jesus Christ would have to break prior to His coming at rapture.

Before now, I have already done a teaching titled (the book with the 7 seals, part 1 and 2)to be posted here on this forum. For those that have read about this seals in the bible, they will understand that the breaking of each of these seals will bring a significant effect upon the earth until the breaking of the 6th seal after which rapture happens. The breaking of the 7th seal will usher in the great tribulation.

This is the time to become more steadfast in Christ. Watch and pray and be more security conscious. But more than this,
prepare for the coming of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. If the 5th seal had already been broken, it shows us how close we are to rapture because the bible made us understand that the rapture takes place after the breaking of the 6th seal. (revelations chapters 6 and 7, mathew 24:9, john 16:1-4). Shalom.

SOME MORE THINGS HAVE BEEN REVEALED CONCERNING THE PLANS OF SATAN TO MAKE BELIEVERS FALL BEFORE RAPTURE.
They include the followings. We continue the itemization from the first 3 items we mentioned at the beginning of this thread

4. HORROR/SORCERY/MAGICAL MOVIES - to indirectly make believers support sorcery and magic which is abomination unto God. Also some spells might be cast into your rooms through this movies.

5. EVIL PASTORS/UNHOLY CHURCH PROGRAMMES -to make them lead innocent believers to satan and to corrupt many through unholy programmes in the church. there are many of church pastors and programmes all around us now.

6. PERFUMES to arouse believers to lustful thoughts, and possible use of it in seducing them to commit immorality.

7. UNBELIEVING FRIENDS - to manipulate them to influence believers in wrong ways.


As more are revealed, we ll try our best to post them. This is time to be extremely watchful and prayerful as our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, commanded us. JESUS CHRIST is coming very soon. Shalom.

h. It is worth-noting that it is this same call for worship that Satan made to our Lord Jesus Christ
when he tempted Him in the wilderness.

Mathew 4 : 9
8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

i. Satan is the source of power behind The Antichrist. What Satan failed to achieve with JESUS, he succeeded with his antichrists. He gave them riches, power and authority (same riches he promised JESUS) and make people worship Him through them (same worship he wanted from JESUS). Revelations 13 : 2

JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY WAY OUT.

In the time of Nebuchadnezzar, three servants of THE MOST HIGH (JEHOVAH) refused to worship the image of Nebuchadnezzar against all persecutions, threats and dangers. Their names were Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. They stood their grounds. They had to make difficult choice to serve God. They knew if they worshipped the image, they would end in hell and if they worshipped not the image, they would be cast into fire alive. They knew Nebuchadnezzar was not joking but they stood for their God. And because they stood for God, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, had to save them from the fire to show superiority to the devil who was working behind Nebuchadnezzar.

As JESUS CHRIST was THE ONLY WAY OUT at the time of the first antichrist, HE is still THE ONLY WAY OUT even now that rapture trumpet is about to sound. He is calling on you to escape with Him by way of rapture. If you missed the rapture, hard choices, the type that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego faced, await you.

You may have to make a hard choice of not worshipping the image of the Antichrist and get persecuted, and be prevented from buying or selling, and eventually beheaded to make it to Kingdom of God (Revelations 20:4) or you may just bow down to worship the antichrist and his image or receives his mark and have yourself cast to hell for all eternity (Revelations 14: 9-11). Either way, the choices are difficult.

May be you think your courage will support at that time. By the time you have been denied food for weeks, denied access to your bank account, denied access to medical facilities, You may want to deny your God and serve the beast. By the time 10 men are lined up in a row for not serving the antichrist and the first one was beheaded in your presence, will you still hold on to your God? These are hard choices. This is why Jesus Christ is calling on you as you read these texts to come to Him in humble repentance and thencling unto Him to save you from the coming tribulation. HE is THE ONLY WAY OUT. Other choices after rapture are unimaginable.

However, if you missed the rapture by ignorance, disobedience, unbelief, non-watchfulness, sin, lukewarmness, worldliness, or due to any other reason, do not bow to the Antichrist. Reject any mode of worship that involves bowing (falling) down. Do not accept any mark or chip into your hand or your forehead. Do not allow any name to be written on your forehead or hand. Stand with JESUS no matter what they do to you. Let them deny you food or behead you if they want to do that. Even at that, JESUS is still THE ONLY WAY OUT. Choose to die for JESUS and be with HIM in heaven rather than choosing the antichrist system which will lead you to hell.

TOPIC: JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY WAY OUT

TEXT: 1 JOHN 2 : 18-23

18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
20 But ye have unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.

INTRODUCTION
Through many different books and verses of the bible, Christians are constantly and consistently warned in advance that The Antichrist (The Final Antichrist) would come at the end-time. Our text above is one of the numerous scripture verses that pointed to the coming of The Final Antichrist or simply put, The Antichrist. It even indicated to us that even as at the time of the Apostles there had been many antichrists. The question to ask is that ‘if there had been many antichrists, even as far back as over two thousand years ago, what then makes The Final Antichrist (The Antichrist) different from the many antichrists that had come?’
We will answer this question as we continue with this teaching. But before we do that, let us make straight one fact that all antichrists: the ones that had come, the ones that are leaving presently and The Antichrist that bible has been warning us about are modeled after a prototype antichrist or at least have some characters found in the prototype antichrist, who was the first known antichrist (Nebuchadnezzar).
Since God, through the prophecies from His prophets of old, made known His plans to redeem mankind by giving us His Son to die for us and to make Him a model of character for us to lead us into His kingdom, Satan too, had set up a man as a model of wickedness for all wicked people to follow to lead men to serve Satan and end in kingdom of Satan (hell). The first known of such people was Nebuchadnezzar, the former king of Babylon.

THE FINAL ANTICHRIST (TO OPERATE AS ANTICHRIST, AFTER RAPTURE)
Please, let me say here that my intention is not to teach The Antichrist but to present JESUS CHRIST as the ONLY REAL WAY OUT of the system of antichrist. I have to say this little about the Antichrist because it is almost impossible to discuss rapture and what will follow after rapture without mentioning at least a little about the Son of Perdition (The Antichrist).
Let us see from the scripture some of what The Final Antichrist will do that make God warns us so much about Him. Then, later we will compare Him with the First Antichrist or The Prototype Antichrist (Nebuchadnezzar). The emboldened texts from the scriptures below serve as guide.

Revelations 13: 1-18

1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.

10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

NEBUCHADNEZZAR (THE FIRST ‘KNOWN’ ANTICHRIST)

From Daniel 3 : 1-30, Let us read about the First ‘known’ antichrist and see later how the Final Antichrist will be modeled after Him.

1 Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.

2 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

3 Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

4 Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,

5 That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up:


6 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
7 Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

8 Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.

9 They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever.

10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, shall fall down and worship the golden image:

11 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

12 There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king.

14 Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?

15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?

16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

20 And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

22 Therefore because the king�s commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.

25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.

26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire.

27 And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king�s counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.

28 Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king�s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.

29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.

30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.

SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE ANTICHRIST AND NEBUCHADNEZZAR

a. Like Nebuchadnezzar, The Antichrist will rule the world. Daniel 3:4, Revelations 13:7

b. Like Nebuchadnezzar, The Antichrist will blaspheme God. Daniel 3:4, Revelations 13: 1,5,6

c. Image will be made for the Antichrist as it was made by Nebuchadnezzar. Daniel 1:1, Revelations 13: 14

d. People will be forced to worship the image of The Antichrist as they were forced to worship the image
of Nebuchadnezzar. Daniel 1:5, Revelations 13:15

e. Like Nebuchadnezzar, the Antichrist will persecute those who refuse to worship his image.
Daniel 3: 6, Revelations 13:15

f. In the time of the Antichrist, Christians will also face hard times to serve God.

g. Nebuchadnezzar was judged by God and made to act like a beast for 7 years. The antichrist will operate
as a beast for 7 years and then be judged. Daniel 9:32, Daniel 9:27

h. It is worth-noting that it is this same call for worship that Satan made to our Lord Jesus Christ
when he tempted Him in the wilderness.
Mathew 4 : 9
8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
i. Satan is the source of power behind The Antichrist. What Satan failed to achieve with JESUS, he succeeded with his antichrists. He gave them riches, power and authority (same riches he promised JESUS) and make people worship Him through them (same worship he wanted from JESUS). Revelations 13 : 2
JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY WAY OUT.
In the time of Nebuchadnezzar, three servants of THE MOST HIGH (JEHOVAH) refused to worship the image of Nebuchadnezzar against all persecutions, threats and dangers. Their names were Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. They stood their grounds. They had to make difficult choice to serve God. They knew if they worshipped the image, they would end in hell and if they worshipped not the image, they would be cast into fire alive. They knew Nebuchadnezzar was not joking but they stood for their God. And because they stood for God, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, had to save them from the fire to show superiority to the devil who was working behind Nebuchadnezzar.
As JESUS CHRIST was THE ONLY WAY OUT at the time of the first antichrist, HE is still THE ONLY WAY OUT even now that rapture trumpet is about to sound. He is calling on you to escape with Him by way of rapture. If you missed the rapture, hard choices, the type that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego faced, await you.
You may have to make a hard choice of not worshipping the image of the Antichrist and get persecuted, and be prevented from buying or selling, and eventually beheaded to make it to Kingdom of God (Revelations 20:4) or you may just bow down to worship the antichrist and his image or receives his mark and have yourself cast to hell for all eternity (Revelations 14: 9-11). Either way, the choices are difficult.
May be you think your courage will support at that time. By the time you have been denied food for weeks, denied access to your bank account, denied access to medical facilities, You may want to deny your God and serve the beast. By the time 10 men are lined up in a row for not serving the antichrist and the first one was beheaded in your presence, will you still hold on to your God? These are hard choices. This is why Jesus Christ is calling on you as you read these texts to come to Him in humble repentance and then

Brethren,

Today, friday, 17/05/2013, around 5a.m. I saw the judgement of God descending from the sky upon the earth and was so close to the earth. it was so close like the height of a bird flying in the sky. something appeared to be
pulling it down.

As i was running to quickly warn people, the judgement hit the earth and an earthquake threw me away like a piece of paper and then about 2 more ferocious earthquakes happened in quick succession. It seemed the earthquake covered the whole earth and Nigeria was not spared.

If you can remember, I opened this thread last year warning us to repent and pray because earthquake is
coming to Nigeria. God is passing a message. Lets take heed.

Please REPENT OF ALL SINS IN JESUS CHRIST. FAST. PRAY. DO all restitutions. forgive all people. cover yourself with the blood of JESUS. Be in absolute holiness and righteousness. MESSIAH IS COMING. Shalom.
