I have desired to do this post for a very long time now and feel sorry that I did not.

Heading right in...

In secondary school,
We were taught Figures of Speech.
Except you had the habit of dodging classes, you couldn't have missed this.

One of the Figure of Speech we were taught is Simile, which in simple terms means that you describe one thing as a comparison to another. E.g Simbi is as tall as a tree

Metaphors, on.the other hand have you describing one thing as another thing e.g Dan is a fish (simply because he drinks too much)
Or Simbi is a palm tree simply because she is tall
Or it is raining cat and dogs.
They are all metaphors.

Let me show you an example in Scriptures.

Isaiah 60:16
Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

The person speaking here is GOD. But HE uses metaphors when speaking to you here of how abundantly HE would nourish and bless you; even to the point of using royals or honorable men, or Presidents or Kings to do so.
It doesn't necessarily mean that GOD is saying that these kings have mammary glands as women physically do.
It is just...metaphor.

In Genesis 17:1,
GOD appeared to Abraham with HIS name as Elshaddai translated to mean the strong and breasted one.

This simply means GOD is.mighty and is more than able to nourish all.

It is simply metaphor.

***
Do not allow these people who do not know The Spirit bewitch you.

Hold fast till the end your knowledge of the truth of the gospel.
Do you have a Bible? Buy King James and New King James version. Don't delay please.

Remember? Of all the generations of the children of Israel that left Egypt, only two people; Joshua and Caleb, made it into the promised land.

Why? Scripture let's us know that the others did not hold their beliefs till the end.

GOD did miracles before their very eyes yet they all choose to believe that they were not able to take the land because they saw giants, even when GOD had told them that HE had already given them the land.
They believed their sight more than they beloved the word of GOD.

It is by grace we are all saved.
GOD will keep us from falling.

Ihedinobi3:


Hello.

As I said in the other thread, I'm quoting you for reference purposes, so that those who read my answers can easily see what I am responding to and where they can find it, if they go looking. Please, don't feel obliged to respond to me. I am not seeking a debate with you. I don't think that it is possible for me and you to have a meaningful one.

I think that the Scriptures are quite clear that human beings have a free will. That is what it means to be made in the image of God. See, for example, the following passage:

19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
John 3:19 (NKJV)

The above is obviously declaring that men had a preference for one thing over another when they could have had either.

But free will is often misunderstood. Atheists insist that it must be the ability to do exactly anything that one wants. That is not what creature free will is. In the piece above, free will has been treated somewhat similarly to what atheists insist that it is, so the protest above does have some merit.

Creature free will is the creaturely counterpart or, more correctly, mirror (hence the Bible's use of the term "image" ) of God's Absolute Sovereignty. God is able to do anything at all that He wants. Nobody limits His desires or plans. He does not have a set of options from which He may choose and outside of which He cannot venture. For Him, reality is a blank canvas on which He can paint absolutely anything that pleases Him.

For creatures, this is not so. Those creatures to whom God has given a free will or rather, as the Bible actually puts it, those creatures that are made in God's Image are those that are able to make a free choice between options that God presents to them under the constraints of their individual makeup and their unique circumstances. That is, we cannot do anything that God has not made us able to do or that He has not given us an opportunity to do.

So, Abimelech in the example above would not have been able to sleep with Sarah if the Lord did not (1)make him physically able to or (2)give him an opportunity to do so. It doesn't matter if he wanted to do so. If events intervened that occupied him and exhausted his energies so that he never found the time to actually have sex with her, then he never would. If he fell sick and couldn't function sexually, then he also wouldn't be able to. It is in this way that the Lord limits our choices.

But this does not at all mean that we don't make choices. The fundamental choice that we all have to make is whether we will submit to God by putting our faith in His Messiah -- an unknown Person before the Cross, but real nevertheless, and the now-revealed Jesus Christ Who has died for the sins of all human beings -- or whether we will remain His enemies by rejecting the Gospel of the Salvation that He was yet to work in Jesus at the time of Abimelech and that He has now worked in the first Advent.

When we make this choice, the Lord organizes our physical abilities and circumstances to give us opportunities to confirm it or to eventually deny it. This is why Paul tells us that

13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.
1 Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV)

Our experiences are designed by God so that we face tests that are exactly suited to our true hearts. Abimelech would not have sinned against God by marrying Sarah if he knew that she was Abraham's wife. So, the Lord preserved him from sinning any further by simply not allowing him to have a choice about sleeping with her. When the time was right for him to be tested again about it, the Lord revealed to him that he was in trouble already. And he acted according to his true heart and gave Sarah back to Abraham.

The example of Jacob and Esau speaks not to free will but to the nature of salvation. Paul's teaching there was that salvation is God's Work, not ours. How this applies to Jacob and Esau was that Jacob was the one who believed whereas Esau rejected the Gospel. The mention of God's election is about God's foreknowledge and His Working together of all things to make sure that all those who would choose Him would be saved.

In short, God is very heavily biased toward believers. He built creation to work in a way that would produce only true believers in Jesus Christ at the end. Jacob was obviously the one whom God knew would choose His Promises over what nice things that this world can offer. The Lord knew that Esau, on the other hand, would use his physical and spiritual resources and opportunities in this life to reject the Promises that God not only gave to his fathers but also made him natural heir to. So, of course, God rejected him before he was even born.

What God did in the past is decree that each person would make exactly the choice that they wanted to and also decree where each person belonged eternally on the basis of this choice that He knew that they would make given every opportunity.

Paul was using this to teach that salvation was God's work. Just as God is the One running the universe so that He is not really responding to any choices we are making, rather we are responding to His Eternal Decrees with our choices, in the same way salvation is not a response to our works, rather itself is God's Work in our behalf and we are the ones who must respond to it. This is what, as he says, Israel refused to accept and for which they were rejected as a result.

So, even Romans 9 does not teach that we don't have a free will.

GOD bless you.

Willzkid:


I see your point sister. No I did not say you said so, but my point is that anyone who receives the mark will know they are making a conscious decision to worship the antichrist.
So those being vaccinated will know that they are receiving the mark.
I agree with you on the not being able to buy or sell. In other words, the beast will be saying see you better worship me and receive the mark or vaccine OR you will not be able to buy or sell.. that's my point sister.
Yes, this vaccine might be a first step towards testing the resilience of people.

The vaccine is the mark of the beast.
You just watch.

After people receive the vaccine, then the antichrist comes and press the button, they will be gone totally; zombified.


People donot not know.
But GOD's children who know will spread the message.

Why do you think when GOD was talking about the mark of the beast HE asked those with the mind of wisdom to discern what HE was saying?

When those who had the mind of wisdom discerned what HE was saying, they spread the message and exposed Bill Gates plot.
They exposed the devils plot.

We are all warning everyone not to take the vaccine.

The bots modify the aspects of the brain that enables you connect with GOD.

The owners of the vaccine have already exposed what the vaccine is capable of.

Do not take the covid vaccine.
The covid vaccine includes nanobots and Id2020

The vaccine is the mark of the beast.

Those who know are sending out the message to everyone.

But more importantly, give your life to CHRIST because without the Spirit of JESUS, you cannot be conscious enough to discern the deception or reject the mark of the beast.

It is The Spirit of CHRIST JESUS that is the spirit of consciousness, that will enable you make that conscious decision to reject the mark.

My apologies. That was a wrong thread.
I meant to quote you here. Thanks.

MrPRevailer this is another thread.

doggedfighter:


Keep deceiving yourself with excuses

Hi.
That was Scriptures I quoted for you.

The ONE under whose Heavens you live, The ONE who formed the shape of your body says HE will return.
HE will.

Scripture says no one should say that the day of The LORD should come quickly so that we might see it because it is going to be a day of blood and destruction.

Hell was made for the devil and his angels, not for us humans. But the devil has sworn that he will not go down alone, and he went after GOD's the creation; man.

But GOD has provided protection for us which is belief in JESUS. That's all. Believing that JESUS died for you on the cross, confessing your sin and asking for forgiveness. No work done on your part. Just belief.

Your anger should be against the devil not GOD.

Willzkid:

Not so much. As I mentioned earlier, these may be preparations for what the great tribulation will be BUT it's hard to show Biblically that anyone will receive the mark by mistake. The mark has to be accomplished by a voluntary worship of the beast

There is no where I wrote that anyone will receive the mark by mistake.

It will be a conscious decision.

But kindly be aware, you cannot buy or sell without the mark.

It is not going to be forced on anyone but it will be enforced in the society.
If you must be a part of the society, then you must take the mark.

So, many people will decide that they cannot suffer, they will want access to food, travelling, marriage, and will go ahead to take the mark.

But GOD has been training HIS children.
We are used to the sufferings of CHRIST and HIS death in our bodies.


Bill Gates himself has said the vaccine, nano bots, and the ID2020 will be one and the same thing. Same injection.
Do you have any idea what nanobots are capable of?

Did you see the word, "bot" there?
That's short for "robot", in other words, zombie.

doggedfighter:
I am coming soon.

Does SOON mean over 2000 years?

Yes. Sometimes.

With THE LORD a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years, likes day.

2 Peter 3:3-9 MSG
3-4 First off, you need to know that in the last days, mockers are going to have a heyday. Reducing everything to the level of their puny feelings, they’ll mock, “So what’s happened to the promise of his Coming? Our ancestors are dead and buried, and everything’s going on just as it has from the first day of creation. Nothing’s changed.”

5-7 They conveniently forget that long ago all the galaxies and this very planet were brought into existence out of watery chaos by God’s word. Then God’s word brought the chaos back in a flood that destroyed the world. The current galaxies and earth are fuel for the final fire. God is poised, ready to speak his word again, ready to give the signal for the judgment and destruction of the desecrating skeptics.

The Day the Sky Will Collapse
8-9 Don’t overlook the obvious here, friends. With God, one day is as good as a thousand years, a thousand years as a day. God isn’t late with his promise as some measure lateness. He is restraining himself on account of you, holding back the End because he doesn’t want anyone lost. He’s giving everyone space and time to change

I know some of you already know this but I just felt like mentioning your name still

This is the verse referenced for rapture in the Bible:

Mathew 24:

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.


But check verses 37 and 39 of that same Mathew 24.
The rapture described in verses 40-41 was caused by verses 37 and 39.

Mathew 24:

"36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

The rapture in verses 40 & 41 is caused by the COMING OF THE SON OF MAN.
When JESUS comes back a second time, rapture shall happen
Without the appearance of JESUS, there can be no rapture!


That is not all.
See 1 Thessalonians 4:16,
1 Thessalonians 4:16
"16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."

You see?
JESUS descends from Heaven and then rapture happens. Not before!!!
Without JESUS' apperance, there can be no rapture!


The tribulation is what will cause the love of many, who aren't watching to wax cold.

Revelation 3:10,
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell in the earth.

We shall all be tested!

Pass your test!

We get raptured when Christ appears. We get caught up with Him in the air (for those of us still alive by then).

Since from the Bible, we get caught up, or vanish, when we get caught up with Him in the air, it then means that if JESUS doesn't show up, there CANNOT be a "rapturing"!

HIS second coming is what causes rapture to happen.

Everytime The Scripture refers to rapture, it is ALWAYS in connection with the appearance of JESUS!
The Second coming of CHRIST JESUS and the rapture are one and same event.

Do not let anyone bewitch you




Side note:
The rapture will not happen till after the tribulation as stated clearly in verse 3 below:

2 Thess 2:1-3

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

Willzkid:
I agree with you sis incrizz on the sequence of events but not on the vaccine being the mark of the beast. It might be a test run as to how the antichrist will control people globally but it is not the mark. The truth is all technology will be deployed by the antichrist to have this global dominance including the internet which we now use.
Here are some reasons for my assertion:
1. The mark of the beast is not going to be received by mistake. People who receive it will be making a conscious decision.
2. The proof for (1) is in Rev 13:15 as well as Rev 20:4 which suggests that the mark of the beast comes with voluntary worship of the beast... People who receive the mark are also people who voluntarily worship the beast, so you cannot receive the mark without first pledging alliance to the beast. This is not what happens with the vaccine

Thanks Willzkid.
'Just curious: how often do you listen to Bill Gates himself?

The believe that rapture will happen before great tribulation begins was erroneously passed down to us by father's of faith and we took everything hook, line and sinker without researching.

Now that knowledge have increased and God is pouring out revelations about this time, we are knowing better but many are not willing to change what they know

Yes Sis, you are so right.
I did swallow it hook, line, and sinker.
But the message was hidden to the end to be revealed in its proper time, I suppose.

The devils are really confused right now.

live4dgospel:

The rapture will occur precisely in the middle of the the 7 years of great tribulation, the saints of God who believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit will go through the tribulation until 3 and half years have passed by and they will be martyred for their faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. It is written in Revelation. 10:7 "but in the days of the sounding of seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets" as it written clearly the ministry of God would be finished when the seventh angel is about to sound, therefore the saints of God will pass through the 6 trumpet. It is also made in the Abomination of Desolation being spoken about by prophet Daniel, in Daniel 12:12 "And from the time the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days(1, 290 days). Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.(1, 335 days)".
The 7 years great tribulation will start from the day the nation of Israel is invaded and destroyed by a powerful country, the leader of the powerful country that will attack Israel in the nearest future will be the very antiChrist which is described by prophet Daniel as the King of the North. Both the numbers 1, 290 and 1, 335 describes about half of 7 years. He who has ear, let him to what the Spirit is saying to the churches.

Mathew 24 clearly states the Elect would be around till the end of the great tribulation as the tribulation will be cut short because of them.


What I know of the Scripture, which people have interpreted as 7years period, is so different.

What I have being taught about the 4 new kingdoms that will arise is so different from the interpretation of people that it means America will be destroyed.

A lot of people get their understanding of Scriptures from what others teach on their own website. I feel we need to always confirm with GOD's Holy Spirit.

*PS, I never said you don't confirm with GOD's Holy Spirit.

annyplenty:


I understand your sentiments; trying to give all you can give back for Christ, including laying down down your life for Him, as He has done for you.

However, I need to clarify some issues on this subject.

-1. You don't have to be beheaded for the sake of Christ to be at the marriage supper of Christ.

As a matter of fact majority of those that will be beheaded during the great tribulation are those that missed the rapture but still want to stand for Christ.

That was why I mentioned you on the other thread.
Rapture is after the great tribulation.

Dear Sis,
I never mentioned that I HAVE TO Be beheaded to make the marriage supper.
What I wrote are two completely different things with what you've written.

Kobojunkie:
I think you misunderstood my reference of the parable of the 10 virgins. All 10 girls believed and so were invited. All of them slept as they waited for the bridegroom(they did not die meaning they all had eternal life as believers in the bridegroom). But when they were awoken by the bridegroom( His sheep hear His voice and will be raised when He returns), 5 were raised to enter into Heaven(the feast you speak of) while the other 5 were raised to be judged(Hell was waiting on the other side of the resurrection for them).

In parable after parable, Jesus Christ made two things clear to His followers;
1. the reward for work done will be the same for everyone who makes it into Heaven. Heaven is not some pyramid scheme where you can earn "greater reward" by doing one thing rather than the other. No! Everyone gets the same reaward, whether you are first or last...nor does it matter how many "souls" you claim to win.

2. Not all of those who will be raised in the end will enter into the Heaven. Many will indeed end up in Hell since Hell is under Jesus Christ's jurisdiction and He is set as Judge over His own.

Are you saying because others would get their reward, I shouldn't rejoice about mine?

Two categories: humans and devils.

Devils believe in GOD and tremble in fear of HIM.

Some humans, who serve the devil, don't believe in GOD Maker and go about mocking

Quite ironic!

Jessewailer007:
Very well said it's sad that people just don't understand this things even big pastors err in this topic.... Yes. I agree with you and I also strongly believe that the doctrine of Rapture before the great tribulation period is a deception. It is not backed up by scriptures. We have to be in the tribulation to be tested and tried through the fire to come out like refined gold.
Even those who claim to be adept bible readers and teachers have erred in their opinions concerning rapture.
Remember the verse that says: "I will keep you from the temptations that will come upon the world" God was talking to the elect/saved people. If those days were not shortned, no man mught be saved but they have been shortened for the sake of the elect. It means the we are part of the Great trib.

GOD bless you.
But we must spread this news fast.
Everyone born of The Spirit of GOD will be delivered from the false indoctrination as soon as they hear this truth; rapture is AFTER the tribulation backed by Scriptures.

Jessewailer007:

Even the wealthy sinners will be suffering in the great tribulations and that is not happening today.

They will receive the mark and will be used as a source of energy to the beast.
What an evil reward!

Jessewailer007:

I have personally had a dream of what a Great trib period will look like and trust me it was not pleasant and they looked like giants and strange creatures who took us all captive and controlled the nations of the world. Technology will play a huge role in that domination.

So many people have and are beginning to have these dreams of giants destroying the world.

AI, artificial intelligence, l will declare itself god.
The have found a way to merge the demonic world through technology.
The devil will actually be the one declaring itself god in GOD's temple.
Any one who accepts the vaccine, will be logged onto the devil real time. His soul will be tossed aside. Demons will take over him.

Jessewailer007:

But do u alao remember that the bible says ; "But i will keep you safe from the time of "troubles" that will come upon the earth" ?

Revelation 3:10
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Jessewailer007:

People will want ti dies but death will be elusive and run away from them.

Revelation9:6
And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

Jessewailer007:

Economies will fail, no power sources, hunger, diseases, natiral disasters will be everywhere, no peace and wars and oppressions will be the order of the day.

Government and cooperate bodies are giving their power to the devil, thinking they will be spared. They will go down first

Jessewailer007:

Then in the midst of thsese, Jesus will return to gather his elect who never gave up the rightheous race. That is when the so-called rapture will take place and immediately after that, more calamities will befall those people who are left in the world or on the ground. Those who were not gathered to the air, clouds to meet with Jesus. This is the secong woe and calamity to fall upon the world. Then after all those days will then be the great day of Judgement and thrones will be set for even some of the human saints(of ancient times/old, and now) to judge the people of the world.

While the Angels of The LORD reap the saints,
Mathew 24:31
And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

The lawless one will be destroyed by The LORD's coming.
2 Thessalonians 2:8
And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.

At10tion:
very funny! It is you that shouldn't chicken out when you see the Anti-Christ.

And, so the Bible tells you that the vaccine is the mark of the beast!!?
And if you don't receive the vaccine (on your forehead or right hand cos that's where they put the vaccine now lolz ) you won't buy and sell! Unh!
Cheer Ignorance! You err greatly.

You should talk more of what you have deep understanding in, not something you have no idea about!

You sound like you know the vaccine is the mark of the beast but you just have to write what you wrote in hopes that you might deceive some.
The Elect cannot be deceived.
NEVER forget that.

Dtruthspeaker:


You have many posts but the most important thing about Knowing this is for us to be Blameless on that Terrible Day where we would be very happy to see Him and not be as those who shall mourn when He Reveals Himself!

You are right.

What I mean is:
JESUS second coming marks the end of the tribulation. The saints will be caught up with HIM in the sky.

1 Thessalonians 4:17
Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.


While, at HIS appearance in the sky, there will be shouts of woe by those who never believed in HIM.

Revelation 1:7
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

Do you get me please?

Crunchyg2:

I thank God for your life, have followed your writings, believe me when I say you know your onion when it comes to biblical revelations and mysteries. I support your believe of tribulation before rapture. Don't mind people who insist on rapture before tribulation

You are so blessed for believing Scriptures.
Thank you very much.

Ihedinobi3:


Hello

An excellent attitude. May the Lord grant us all grace to share the same mind with you.

Thank you Sir and GOD bless.
The confidence of CHRIST in GOD in the face of death is being made known to all of GOD's children world wide and we are all appropriating that confidence to ourselves and owning it and getting emboldened by day.

budaatum:

You and the op sound like those who put on suicide jackets to blow up others believing it will get you into heaven.

Pity no one comes back to confirm, but you got to wonder why a God who refused the sacrificing of Isaac would want a sacrifice of you.

Only that in this case, we are not the ones blowing others up but the ones getting blown...

Valkrie:


what vaccine..? ain't taking no vaccine aunty...!!

You are blessed.

Valkrie:
Religion is poison..!!

Please don't take the vaccine, I beg you.

jesusjnr2020:

Maybe this generation also needed us here, so I can't complain but still try to use this opportunity to show in this generation that even though the love for God has waxed cold, there are still those who love God to their last breath and are willing to go with Him to the death!

God bless.

Isn't GOD amazing?

Throughout the tribulation, till the tribulation was cut short because of the Elect, we are always going to be around.

That is GOD, ever present through it all in us as the salt of the earth

Kobojunkie, on the side, were you able to read Revelations 20:4?

Kobojunkie:

There is not much to be said on a belief that is drawn from a literal translation of a dream vision.
So are you certain you will be beheaded and this has nothing to do with the images of martyrdom and the idea of it you previously had in your mind before this dream of yours?

Oh! It wasn't a dream.
The Holy Spirit is a Person, HE talks.
When HE talks, your whole being hears HIM.
I wish I could narrate it all, what HE taught me, to you but there is no need. You may not understand.

Kobojunkie:

An invite to the marriage last supper? You mean like the 10 virgins where only 5 were able to get in while the others who also had invites were denied entry?

Well, that parable speaks to a lot of things.
But don't forget, all 10 virgins were invited. Only 5 attached seriousness to welcoming The Master.

JESUS has been longing for us to meet with HIM, like face to face, where we see HIM as HE is. It is going to be a huge party. This is the real party, this is real celebration where the Bridegroom and the Bride finally get married.
Anyone who attaches seriousness to this wedding invitation, will make it in and that person is blessed.

Kobojunkie:

Tribulations of the saints? The one that took place between the 1st and 4th century AD (almost 2000 years ago as documented in Matthew 24) or another one?

I don't know of this one you talked about and I don't want to know, frankly.
The one I am interested in, is the one talked about in The Bible, which JESUS says will occur to mark the end of this age.

Kobojunkie:

Christian History is littered with stories of so-called men/women of God claiming to have seen the end of days in their lifetime, obviously all turned out to be nothing but fake news...what makes you think that what you saw is any different?

The Bible is my standard.
Never in this same history that you talk about was buying and selling dependent on vaccinations.
JESUS says this will happen at the end of age.

Never has a vaccine contain about 6 particles in them, that upon entering the blood stream, they reassemble themselves.

They are gradually pushing it and you know it.

There will be Rapture, but fewer people will be taken, and all of the dead in Christ will rise in their new spiritual body into heaven, and even some or many of the elect will be left behind because of one sin or the other, while some will be left to confront the Anti-Christ and shake his kingdom, some of this will be sealed that the tribulation will not have any effect on them yet the Anti-Christ will overpower them and kill them after the conclusion of their assignment yet they will rise up again..

Not everything Jesus will say, when he was going to die, he'll say "the son of man will be crucified and after the 3rd day he will rise from the dead". Did he tell his disciples that when he rose from the dead, others that had believed in him too will rise with him and enter with him into paradise, did he? But it happened Matthew 27:52 and people saw it and were awed!

So it's left for you to ask God to give you a deeper revelation of the end time. Moreover you can check divine revelations of many people that have seen beyond the veil. It's good to read the scripture but there are lots of coded messages, you need the revelational strength of the Spirit to unveil it to you else ones understanding will just be unfruitful.

On another note, My dear, seriously I'm not interested in arguing this. Jesus used to say something, he will say "be it unto you according to your believe",so please, do have a nice day.

I also refuse to argue with you.
But let your faith in CHRIST wax stronger when you see the antichrist, not diminish.

Don't accept the vaccine, it is the mark of the beast.
