Not Called To The Wrath Of God

NOT CALLED TO THE WRATH OF GOD
• Noah lived through every single day of the flood.
• The Children of Israel lived in Egypt through all ten plagues.
• Jesus left all twelve Disciples in the boat in the midst of the storm.
• The Church survived Nero’s persecution.
• The Church survived the Inquisition.
• Ninety percent of the Christians in the Middle East have been killed or displaced in the last ten years, but the Church remains.

But you are just certain that Jesus has to rapture you before the Tribulation because He said that you are not destined to wrath…

Please look at the whole verse and note that Pretribbers only quote half of the verse…

1 Thessalonians 5:9 For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

This is not speaking of the wrath of God poured out on sinners during the Tribulation. In its immediate context, “wrath” is speaking of judgment, Hell and the Lake of Fire. This Scripture says that, as the Elect of God, you are not destined for Hell but for Heaven…

This passage has absolutely nothing to do with the Tribulation or the rapture…

Please note that God has poured out his wrath before and that wrath never resulted in a Rapture… If you do force that verse on the tribulation, the fact remains that God has often protected his children from wrath, but He has never had to remove them from the planet in order to protect them.


It’s called CONTEXT… Christian’s should try it sometime…

Part I - 5 Signs That Your Country Is Being Taken Over By A Tyrant

Soft Tyranny Part I – The 5 Signs of a Soft Tyrant Taking Over Your Country The two major types of dictatorships in the world are “soft” and “hard”, and for this piece I will be using the word “tyrant” as the descriptor for both dictators and tyrants. Hard tyrants are relatively easy to spot and they are usually led by leaders who believe without a doubt in communism. Many of these tyrants come into power by using various “strongman tactics” such as political tactics (stacking the political deck in their favor), personal attacks (removing everyone that disagrees with them), influential tactics (controlling what the press says about them and discrediting, jailing, or killing the ones who don’t), and total military control (including martial law) via a “ coup d'é·tat”. However, n o matter how they do it the end game is always the same; to rule by force and make the country either an authoritarian or totalitarian regime. Many of these “strongman dictators” are not the actua

Quimby and Beyond...

Enter Quimby… The New Thought movement of the late nineteenth century had a profound influence on a number of American leaders in the Divine Healing movement in the first half of the twentieth century who went on to become the fathers of the Positive Confession, or Faith-Formula theology of Pentecostalism.  New Thought was a movement that began after the death of Phineas P. Quimby (1802-66) when a number of his students came together to preserve his teaching. Quimby had developed an alternative system of healing through parapsychology after beginning a career as a mesmerist. Quimby taught that bodily sickness was caused when the mind believed false notions about health and could be healed by correcting these beliefs in the mind. The movement that sprang from his protégé emphasized not only health and healing, but also abundance, prosperity, wealth and happiness. The basic presuppositions of New Thought’s system of divine healing are, firstly, God is all reality and in God is no

Do You Tell The Truth DJT?

Jonathan Karl’s Question: And finally I remember well, you remember well in the campaign, you made a promise. You said, “I will never lie to you.” Can you tell me now, honestly, have you kept that promise at all times? Have you always been  truthful? DJT’s Answer: Well, I try. I do try. I think you try too. You say things about me that aren't necessarily correct [this is called deflection]. I do try, and I always want to tell the truth. When I can, I tell the truth… I have a simple rule and that is if anyone lies to me even one time then I know they will lie to me again if they need to and this man has lied to America thousands of times. Even those close to him say that he will make up his “own truth” when the need arises so he can come out on top and that he has NO issue with telling lies to get ahead. However, those with real spiritual discernment know that he is has been constantly lying to America, however people who claim to be “christians” (aka evangelicals) do
