Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

And if that is not clear enough

Flammas eius lúcifer matutínus invéniat: ille, inquam, lúcifer, qui nescit occásum. Christus Fílius tuus, qui, regréssus ab ínferis, humáno géneri serénus illúxit, et vivit et regnat in sæcula sæculórum.

So what does this mean then?

May this flame be found still burning by the Morning Star: the one Morning Star who never sets, Christ your Son, who, coming back from death’s domain, has shed his peaceful light on humanity, and lives and reigns for ever and ever.

Here's another example from the Hebrew Old Testament in Latin & Hebrew

Et quasi meridianus fulgor consurget tibi ad vesperam; et cum te consumptum putaveris, orieris ut lucifer. Job 11:17

“Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness would be like the morning." Job 11:17

וּֽ֭מִצָּהֳרַיִם יָק֣וּם חָ֑לֶד תָּ֝עֻ֗פָה כַּבֹּ֥קֶר תִּהְיֶֽה׃

בֹּקֶר Morning

In Hebrew the term is used as a cognate to denote that time between the night and the morning star. I used the expression that Lucifer was a mistaken term in post #3,040 where I said, "So can I ask you why the video that speaks of Lucifer (a mistaken name) is important because in the dream he comes in a red coat with a black belt around his girdle?" You can see why now.

The Bright Shining One created in the dawn light of creation doesn't exist anymore - he was destroyed and he is now called Satan. His light was turned into the darkness of this age and so to keep giving him a name that derives from Latin is both a lie against God and a very mistaken precept. He comes as an angel of light to deceive - but he is darkness altogether. The Lord knows I have no wish to uphold the Pope - but really, brother get some sense.

I do have sense. The Pope is pushing one world religion that denies the Bible where it says that Jesus is the way and that no man comes unto the father but by him. The Catholic church is pushing to unite all religions except for evangelicals which they feel are obnoxious in pushing that Jesus is the only way to salvation. I have also shown that the Vatican has put up a statue to Molech. Yes, Lucifer means morning star, so just because the name originally had a good meaning doesn't change the fact that it is one of the names of the chief angel that rebelled against God. You need to get some sense.

Hebrews 11 -- Do not be deceived

Many Christians are afflicted with the Rodney King syndrome, "Can we all just get along". It is based on a lack of knowledge and as Hosea said "My people perish because of a lack of knowledge".

1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

We are hoping to be raptured in the first rapture, or as the Jewish custom is, we are hoping that our names would be written in the book of life. If you want some confidence and assurance about this you need to pray for faith. Remember, faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.

2 This is what the ancients were commended for.

This is where the deception comes in. The ancients were not commended for being popular, for not causing waves, for "getting along", they were commended for faith. This chapter will make it very clear that faith is definitely not "getting along" and "not causing waves". Speech is currently being monitored, "corrected" and censored. If you bow to that it is wholly contrary to what we see in Hebrews 11. Sometimes it is absolutely stunning what some people will say and do. The arrogance and gall is incredible. But no one is commended for that and ten years later they are exposed as liars and frauds, and no one cares. But people with faith, people like Abraham, Paul, Peter, and Jesus, we remember their words thousands of years later.

3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

Great example of something that you are not allowed to say and that has been censored, ridiculed, mocked, and "corrected". This is a very important and fundamental lesson in science. We could not figure out the mysteries of the universe until we were able to see the things that are unseen. No one can explain what an electron is. I teach Chemistry and my students are surprised when I tell them I don’t know what an electron is. I then tell them what we know and then they too will answer when I ask what is an electron: “I don’t know”. However, even though that is true we can do amazing chemistry and make all kinds of substances because we understand that the electrons are critical in telling us how they will all fit together. Every day scientists make things that you can see out of things you can’t. If we do this in a shadow, then surely the reality is that God has made what is visible out of what is not visible.

4 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.

Think about that, how powerful is faith. If your words have faith they don’t die just because you do. Today, thousands of years later, we have people all over the globe examining the words of the apostles and prophets and discovering new things every day. Abel was not "popular" because his offering was better, on the contrary it stirred up jealousy and envy. However, it propelled human civilization forward. It was a major step forward in the full transition from hunter gatherer to the agricultural society. Archaeologists will tell you that raising domesticated animals was a major development in human society, read "Guns, Germs and Steel". Horses were our tanks and transportation, Oxen were the animals that helped us transform the landscape, mules and donkeys were critical in helping us mine ore, all of the diseases in our herd animals actually protected the herders (which is why the Native Americans all died when we arrived in America).

5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.

Enoch is an excellent example. He is a man of faith, he was a type of those who were raptured, and his prophecy is commended as being divinely inspired by many of the New Testament writers. His words still live today. Enoch pleased God it doesn't say he pleased man. Paul even tells us that if he were still pleasing man he wouldn't be pleasing God. There is nothing that would suggest that either Abel or Enoch pleased men. What do we know about Enoch, "he walked with God". Sounds like a loner. Think about these two, the first martyr and the first one raptured while still alive. This is a picture of those who will be raised at the end of the age.

6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

What does the Lord say about those who have their reward in this life and won't be rewarded by God? They do everything publicly to be seen of men. They are actors, performers, entertainers (hypocrites). If you hope to be raptured then surely you must please God and without faith that is impossible. There are three things you must believe in order to come to God. You have to believe that He exists and He rewards those who seek Him. Finally, you have to believe the Lord’s word that no one comes unto the Father but by the Lord Jesus. This is in direct contradiction to those who are pushing this one world religion. In order to get the Muslims and Buddhists and Hindus and all the rest they eliminate the need to believe in Jesus.

7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith.

There are many aspects to the gospel of salvation. The very term “salvation” implies there is something to be saved from which is a sinful world. The act of receiving the gospel and obeying the Lord’s commands condemns the world. You aren’t trying to condemn anyone, but they are condemned for refusing to receive the warning. That implies they have heard the same warning as you and rejected it. So you can see how all of humanity is split by this one matter of faith. Some receive the warning by faith, others reject the warning because they are faithless. The rapture is about taking those that please the Lord, those who have faith, received the warning and obeyed the Lord’s commands.

This is where the deception is really obvious. People think that the reason we preach the gospel is so that people will get saved. The problem with that is what happens if people reject the gospel, does that mean you are a failure? Noah preached the gospel for decades, maybe more than 100 years, and yet how many received his word, how many were saved? Just eight people counting himself. Here in Hebrews 11 Noah is not listed here because he had a prevailing gospel ministry where thousands came to the Lord. No, it says "by his faith he condemned the world", that is why he is listed here. Do you think Noah was popular with the world? Anyone like to be condemned? The bible says that Noah "was a preacher of righteousness". It isn't a popular topic with man, only with God.

If you think that the goal of the gospel is to get people saved then the guy with the "Mega church" and ten thousand attendees is the one to imitate and follow. As long as you are thinking that way you will never follow or imitate Noah. I can list off 5 mega church pastors who had "prevailing gospel ministries" and who also were involved in trafficking children in pedophile rings. Do you think anyone who was involved in trafficking children in pedophile rings is going to be pleasing to God? Do not be deceived, how many of these televangelists put up numbers as proof that they are men of faith only for us later to learn that they cheat on their taxes, commit fornication, or even worse, are involved in Satanism?

Brother if you use blatant and false claims taken from illiterate men and then assert that the Pope openly worships Lucifer (Satan) then how on earth can you establish any truth about Rome? I have been involved in ministries to Roman Catholics for nearly forty years. I helped to typeset Far From Rome Near To God for my preaching partner Martin Buckingham, who co authored the book with a former Roman Catholic Priest. I don't see myself an an expert but I do see the need for clarity and accuracy. I haven't spoken to a single ex Roman Catholic priest who would make that mistake because they all speak Latin and know Hebrew well enough. They would be laughter into a corner by every priest they are trying to reach. That book went to every single Roman Catholic priest in Britain. Not one mention was made to Lucifer or how in Latin it is utilised to speak of Satan - albeit it is also expressly used of Christ as well.

I am not being obstructive - I am simply trying to show you that you cannot establish truth by citing false claims.

The Pope has made it very clear that he denies the Lord's word that "no man cometh unto the Father but by Me".


This is the false prophet. John told us not to have anything to do with anyone who denies Jesus Christ has come in the flesh.

Here is an example of all the world's religions working together. A modern day Babylon.

Better understanding of Moloch and Baal worship

But he doesn't deny that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh - he denies that Christ is the only way unto the Father. Why don't you see that you are making the mistake of mixing up meanings? Its such a grave matter that your efforts will prove worthless to others - save for those who simply take pleasure in contention. The Roman Catholic Church expresses a more fundamental claim to the true faith in doctrine than many people who shake their heads at them. You must have no comprehension of Church Canon and even less knowledge of the reformation. Rome for all of its blasphemies and all of its lies and all of its murders and all of its wealth - does not deny Christ and therein lies the problem. You won't get to any truth unless you step back and answer that question. 1 John 4:2 is not failed in Rome. So it is not possible to speak of antichrist of the Roman Pontiff unless you can address that anomaly. And to do that you will have to remove yourself from any claim that cannot be expressly proved first.

As to the idol in the Colosseum: On Feb. 11, 1929, Pope Pius XI approved the Lateran Treaty with Italy. In exchange for an independent city-state — Vatican City — the pope relinquished all rights to Italian territory previously known as the Papal States. The Italian leader at the time was Benito Mussolini. The Pope has no authority to refuse anything outside of the Vatican City in Rome - unless it is within the sanctuary of a church. The Pope did not approve of the statue and the statue is part of a museum display about ancient Carthage. Part of my family is in Italy and they are reformed believers to a man. All Italian and all well familiar with the persecution their forbears experienced at the hand of Rome. But they would not make that claim because they know that the Colosseum is in the justification of the Italian government’s Ministry of Heritage and Cultural Activities and Tourism. It is nearly five miles from the Vatican City.

Hebrews 11 -- Do not be deceived, cont.

8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.

We have had many smaller experiences of this, but in the grand scheme of things, we obey the Lord’s words and follow Him and ultimately this will include the rapture, where we will be going to a place where we don’t know. We don’t know where it is and we don’t know how to get there. This means he left his family, he left his friends, he left the community he grew up in. Many Christians are "set, settled", and would refuse to do such a thing. Babel was the place of the great one world religion, by comparison Abraham was a stranger in a strange land.

9 By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.

Living in tents is a big deal to God. The feast of tabernacles celebrates this every year. It gives you a feeling of confidence to know that you could survive in the wilderness. "Stranger in a foreign country" indicates he didn't fit in. Compare this to the Pope who lives in a palace, worships in a cathedral, and these places are considered the very heart of our civilization and culture.

10 For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

They talk about people pulling themselves up by their bootstraps. If you live on the land in a tent while you build the city, that is a great heritage. You are imitating God who called not being as being. There are a lot of reasons that someone might not "assimilate", they might not fit in, they might act strange (living in a tent). Being strange and not assimilating is not evidence of faith, no the reason was simple, he was focused on the city of God. That implies a judgement on the cities of man. The reason he left his country, his land, his community was because he was looking for that city, he is not about to exchange the city of God which was promised to him for a very poor substitute.

11 And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

How remarkable is it that the Jewish people can trace their lineage back all the way to Abraham. People do not forget faith and they don’t forget men of faith. Now compare that with the Popes. Just tracing back the lineage for 1,000 years will give you a list of despicable, evil and fleshly Popes claiming to be God's representative on earth.

13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. 14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

Once again, those who are raptured are those that God is not ashamed of to be called their God. This implies that there are others that God is ashamed of to be called their God. We have been looking for a country of our own and have no interest in returning to the world we left behind when we were baptized. Again, there is this deception out there about what these ones that get raptured are like as though as soon as that last person is saved then the Lord returns. Seriously, the Lord's return will be held hostage by one lone holdout to the gospel?

Look at these people, none of them fits that profile. Abel provoked jealousy and envy and was killed, Enoch walked with God (something of a loner), Noah was a preacher of righteousness, very few were saved through that preaching but the world was condemned by it, Abraham became a stranger in a foreign land living in tents because of faith, Sarah believed that the one who promised was faithful.

Faith is expressed in many ways, but so far in Hebrews we have yet to see the tele evangelist listed in Hebrews 11. This is not a pet peeve, it is a carefully crafted stratagem of the evil one to get believers to be focused on being popular. Others like the Pope want to be powerful. You see this today, people want to just "go along" with the censorship, "don't make waves". "Just because you aren't allowed to speak certain things doesn't mean they control what you think". Really? They control what you hear, what you see and what you say, but you don't think that will control your faith? Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. If you are not allowed to speak the word of God or hear the word of God how is it they aren't controlling your faith?

The Pope speaks of working together to solve world problems and bring peace. How has that worked out so far in human history when the Catholic church was in charge? What the Pope wants is to be in charge. Biden told people whatever they wanted to hear and they believed him. All they had to do was look at his record to realize he was lying. How can anyone listen to the pope and not want to compare that with his record?

These men will be punished most severely

Luke 20:45 While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his disciples, 46 “Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. 47 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”

Isn't that incredible? Beware the teachers of the law! The Bible charges you repeatedly to be in the word, to study the word, to bind the word to you and yet the one you really need to beware is "the teacher of the law"? But the Lord didn't stop there, they like to have fancy robes, be treated respectfully in the marketplace and have the most important seats of honor. This is not referring to John the Baptist who was wearing the weirdest robes, he was shunned from the marketplace and wasn't invited to their feasts choosing to eat locusts instead.

And how do they pay for these fancy robes, why are all those in the marketplace so deferential, why do the banquets honor them with the best seats? It is because they devour widow's houses, that his how they are enriched and how they enrich others.

The whole thing is an act, a big show, a pretense.

Look, your house is left to you desolate

13 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. [14]

They are hypocrites, actors and they have an agenda which is to prevent those who are trying to enter from entering the kingdom of heaven. They literally shut the door of heaven in people's faces.

15 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are.

They are hypocrites, actors, and they have another agenda which is to win converts and make them twice the child of hell that they are.

16 “Woe to you, blind guides! You say, ‘If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gold of the temple is bound by that oath.’ 17 You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes the gold sacred? 18 You also say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gift on the altar is bound by that oath.’ 19 You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 20 Therefore, anyone who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it. 21 And anyone who swears by the temple swears by it and by the one who dwells in it. 22 And anyone who swears by heaven swears by God’s throne and by the one who sits on it.

I think it is wonderful if you don't know what this is talking about. When you descend into the depths of their wickedness you discover all their compromise is about gold. Think about the Vatican helping the Nazis, how despicable, and yet it was all about gold. You cannot serve God and Mammon for either you will love the one and hate the other or else you will hate the one and love the other. These ones are loving and serving Mammon.

23 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former. 24 You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel.

This is the expression of one who loves gold instead of God. They are precise to the point of being meticulous when it comes to tax, but when it comes to justice, mercy and faithfulness they are negligent! They do all of this while acting like they are guides to the blind! They can swallow the biggest, nastiest and most unclean judgements yet when it comes to the tax they collect they are fastidious.

25 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. 26 Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean.

Seriously, can anyone claim that the inside of the cup of the worldly celebration of Christmas is not filthy? So why defend it? Because they defend it that is why they are given respect in the marketplace. Attack Christmas and they would be reviled like John the Baptist. The same goes for the Pope. Everyone knows the insides of the cup of the vatican is filthy and disgusting. Yet they have the nerve to tell the rest of the world they will help us clean up our mess? Why don't you first clean up your own mess with your pedophile priests and illuminati bankers.

27 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean. 28 In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.

The Lord knows where the bones are buried. Most of us have only a cursory understanding of how deep and vile the blood guiltiness is.

29 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous. 30 And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’ 31 So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Go ahead, then, and complete what your ancestors started!

We saw this recently when the Democrats were attacking the racists past of this country while trying to hide the fact that it was the Democrats. They picked the most obscure date from the Civil war to celebrate the end of slavery when any reasonable person would have selected the Gettysburg address. But they couldn't do that because it would highlight that Lincoln was a Republican and the the south were Democrats.

33 “You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? 34 Therefore I am sending you prophets and sages and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town. 35 And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. 36 Truly I tell you, all this will come on this generation.

So then don't think it is a strange thing when these "teachers of the law" kill, crucify, flog and pursue you. This is the Lord's doing so that like Noah, a preacher of righteousness, He would have the basis on which to condemn this generation.

37 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. 38 Look, your house is left to you desolate. 39 For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’”

It is certainly true that the Lord always leaves men without excuse when he intends to make their judgement visible to all. But it is a poor spirit to ambitiously set about to lay down false and meaningless accusations in order to require judgement of God. He will not judge those who say they are Christian men and leaders of the people on that basis - He will judge His House in righteousness and He will remove every stumbling block so that his children who have been pressed by pastors, elders, political dogs who call themselves Christian and all manner of serpents and vile men can be set free - and they that have caused stumbling will be cast down. The sheep will be scattered without their shepherds - and perhaps then if their hearts turn to Christ alone - they will find comfort. And they that will give them shelter and clothes and food and understanding will be the many that are presently silent. They are your neighbour and you saw them not when they wept for you and you understood them not when they asked you to repent of all that carnality and to make the name of the Lord a name of hope and praise for the children who believed your parade of words - yet you rejected them. When your children could not believe anymore they fell into anger and grief and have now turned to devour their Fathers. You have made the name of the Lord a stumbling block and a chain of oppression and a cause of judgement of God. That is not the end - it is a shadow of what is to come upon the whole earth.

The only thing that I am unclear about is whether the Lord will sovereignly bring to the US a revival that removes boastings and gives vain men a hope to repent before the hand of God is revealed in judgement of your nation. I truly hope and pray that it is possible.

Hebrews 11 -- Do not be deceived, part 3

17 By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, 18 even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.” 19 Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.

This is the big test. Will you sacrifice everything to obey the Lord’s speaking? If I speak up I could lose my job. Maybe I got that job as God's answer to my prayer. "Surely I shouldn't sacrifice my job." Tell that to Abraham, the father of faith. What was it that God really appreciated about Abraham again? He had a successful ranching operation? No, that isn't it. He brought Lot to the Lord? Nope. Oh yeah, he was looking forward to a city made by God. That city, did it involve censoring the word of God? If one of those words would cause him to sacrifice everything he had, even his experiences of God what would he choose? What if we just cut this one little word out, just kind of ignore it? Obedience is better than sacrifice, it is the real sacrifice. You can claim to have faith, well then let's see your obedience to the word of God when it really counts, when it is really going to cost you.

20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to their future.

Can you do everything by faith? Many look at this story as being a story of Jacob deceiving Isaac, yet God tells us he blessed him by faith.

21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons, and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.

How exactly did Jacob do this? He had to have known the two kids, prayed for them, and sought God for them. Your faith can be expressed, like Enoch with a prophecy, or like Noah in building a boat, or like Jacob in praying for your grandchildren.

22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his bones.

You can pray for your people, and those in bondage. What do Isaac, Jacob and Joseph all have in common? They have their eyes fixed on the city that God is building, they are speaking blessing and prophecies concerning this city and concerning our exodus from this evil age.

Hebrews 11 -- Do not be deceived, part 4

23 By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king’s edict.

Faith can be expressed by civil disobedience, rejecting unjust laws, like Rosa Parks. Can we please read the word of God as a warning to us from God who knows exactly who are enemy is and what he will do? Pharaoh was trying to kill all the males in Israel. Whether with abortion, or infanticide, or censorship, that is the goal shut them up and kill them. Do not be so naive to think they couldn't possibly be that evil. They could be, you have been told they are, and if you willfully ignore that warning it is on you, don't blame God.

The Pandemic was created in a bioweapons lab. Of course it is theoretically possible that the release of this virus was an accident. But that doesn't explain the cover up from the Wuhan Lab, from the CCP, or from Fauci. They knew it came from the lab and intentionally tried to turn people away from looking there. It also doesn't explain China hiding the the genome sequence for months, an action that resulted in many people dying. It doesn't explain why China, knowing the virus was loose locked down Wuhan to all domestic travel yet kept international flights open. It doesn't explain Fauci authorizing only one treatment for Covid which would actually make it worse and lead to death. Nor does it explain people like Cuomo doing the exact opposite of what any rational person would do, putting infected people into nursing homes boosting the death rate, nor does it explain why Fauci would hold up Cuomo as the "gold standard" of how to respond to the virus, or why Hollywood gave him an Emmy, or why the Mainstream media loved him and vilified Desantis.

As far as I am concerned you have to be the biggest idiot in the world to trust these people, and if you are that big an idiot that is fine, God doesn't just save people with discernment. So I am not interested in having them mandate a vaccine which is experimental and which I am not allowed to ask relevant questions about, and where they silence anyone who does ask questions. Sorry, I'm not afraid of the King's edict.

So tell me, you who said I was a paranoid conspiracy theorist when I said they would mandate the vaccine despite them telling us they wouldn't because that is unconstitutional, are you still making excuses for them? They told you 18 months ago they would shut down for two weeks to flatten the curve, are you still making excuses for them? Harris said she didn't trust the vaccine and Fauci said masks don't work and yet today you are listening to them tell you to wear masks and take the vaccine? They told you the vaccine was safe and then just two days ago they tell you that the J&J vaccine is not safe, don't take it. They are mandating this vaccine for everyone that is 5 years old and older and now NY is coming out with a letter to all parents about how they are anticipating a huge spike in heart attacks among the kids, yet you still listen to them? Do you really think they are doing this for the public's good? The WHO just said you cannot have a vaccine mandate on immigrants coming into the country illegally, yet you can mandate it on the citizens? At what point do you realize this is a lie? Do you have to be locked up in a quarantine camp even though you have tested negative for the virus like what is going on in Australia? Don't you think it is a little too late at that point?

Wow, many prophecies tie into January 8, 2022

Hebrews 11 -- He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God

In the last verse we learned that Moses' parents were "deplorables", they were behaving in a way that was anti government as though they believed in "freedom" and that "Jesus is Lord". We then see Moses and this man's faith was really amazing, it is as though half the record books were his acts of faith.

24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. 25 He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.

This is crucial, if you hope to be raptured then surely you are looking ahead to the reward and rejecting fleeting pleasures of sin. You are willing to be mistreated and suffer disgrace because you know these are a momentary lightness of affliction compared to the eternal weight of glory. Are any of these men (and women) of faith popular?

27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible.

How is it that some of these guys can persevere? By all accounts Moses life was essentially over when he saw the burning bush. You persevere by faith, because you see the invisible one. Let's be honest here for a second because God knows the hearts, can't lie to Him. This whole "let's get along" and "let's not make waves" is simply the justification that cowards make because they are afraid of the King's anger. Why? If you know that the "king" has set himself up against God, why would you fear him? Haven't you always wanted to say "which is better to listen to you or to listen to God"? This is your chance! NY State has a bill that they can vote on that would allow the Governor to put all unvaccinated people into custody and forcibly vaccinate them. So then, how is this "let's not make waves" working out for you?

28 By faith he kept the Passover and the application of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.

Moses expresses a lot of faith. He is looking ahead for his reward, he sees the invisible one, and he is then able to follow directions precisely in keeping the Passover. When you hear and obey, your ability to hear and obey improves. Eventually you could get so precise you could follow very detailed instructions. The Passover refers to God standing over our house to protect it so that the angel of death has to skip your house. That is faith. Anyone can see Pharaoh and his army, but Moses saw God and his angels and had faith in God protecting his house.

29 By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.

Think how arrogant they have to be to think they could follow after Israel through the Red Sea. Moses was exhibiting a very high level of faith developed over a lifetime and these Egyptians were those who utterly rejected the word of God and were faithless. Moses stepping into the sea was an act of faith, the Egyptians pursuing was an act of faithlessness. Don't you love this? Don't you love being able to do what no one else can do? That is the gift of faith, that is the gift of obeying God and following Him and trusting in Him.
