It blows my mind that most christians believe in the Falling Away & the Falling Away will come before the Tribulation, but they cannot see the Falling Away is judgment on the church. Those guilty will lose their spiritual sight, hearing & understanding.
They will remain in a spiritual stupor as they go into the Tribulation.
They are turned over to a reprobate mind.

Guess it depends on what you mean by “the Church” Is it the physical building and anyone who gathers within it? Or is it those walking in faith with God inside or outside the building? There are lots of unbelievers running around attending corporate “Church” gatherings. I was one but I wasn’t a believer in my youth. I’d attend because my parents pretty much forced me to but the relationship with God wasn’t there. I’d sleep through the sermon, roll my eyes at the convicting passages read by the pastor . Was I a part of the “church” at that time? I don’t think I was even though physically present in the building my heart was not with the Lord. So is He judging the “Church” corporately or is the spirit of God convicting the lukewarm and unbelieving within our midst in such ways people are simply removing the “Christianity “ label from their lives and walking away revealing more and more who are actually His people?

It's simple... God doesn't recognize sinners as the church & neither should we. We're talking about true believers.

On what do you base your assessment that "most Christians" can't see the falling away is a judgment on the church? I'm just curious how you reached that conclusion.

By those who all believe in an end-time revival. Haven't you read all of the thread?

Honestly no. Frankly, your answer "By those who all believe in the end-time revival" doesn't make a lot of sense. Forget I asked.

I do imagine, that eventually, Those who end up "Falling Away," will indeed be given over to a Reprobate Mind, just like those who love sexual sins or idolatry over God.

And Pew Research and a Thread of my own here, shows how Millennials and Others are "Specifically choosing against being a Christian in order to be a Witch." Do you know HOW crazy that is? Millennials, were roughly the LAST GOOD GENERATION, who was in Church before Membership dropped because People gotta work on Sunday + Other choices and factors which resulted in Children are no longer held to the example and format to be Trained.

So, according to this truthful Research, some of the Last true Generation of Children, who were fully raised as infants until College, in the Church, ARE NOW "WITCHES" by CHOICE!

If that is not Evidence of both Judgement, Deception, Fallen Away, being this "close" to the Return of Christ, and possibly go from the TRUE MOST HIGH GOD to one of His creations... ummm... nothing is.

My take on the next two years. Troubles are coming sooner rather than later on this world as we have never seen before. Good time for a revival

That's the thing... all this bad stuff happening against the church will bring repentance for some because revivals have already come & gone & nothing's changed overall.

The "End Time" Revival will be held in the Second Half of the Tribulation. Not before then.
I disagree completely with you Watcher for after the Blessed Day---1335 days into the Tribulation, every one has made up their minds. That is 75 days after the antichrist takes his seat in TEMPLE of God. Everyone needs to wake up and understand that what was quoted by the angel is now unsealed in Daniel 12. For this time will be both Great and Terrible and Great and Glorious per Rev. 14

I guess we have to disagree but I do want to mention the 144K are mentioned being before the Throne at 7th seal
I used to answer and probably should go back to that the last Revival is before pre-Wrath.

I believe Chapter 14 begins with the antichrist in Power.
if we read further down the Chapter, it comes to the Warning of taking the Mark.

There's time between end of Two Witnesses and their Resurrection + 144k before the Antichrist and False Prophet enforces the Mark.
how much time could be enough for a last Revival after people see Two Witness Resurrect and the 144k begin Evangelizing before what happens in the Temple and the Decree of taking the Mark.

I find some churches strange in that many children dont actually go as there is nothing for them there. It becomes a social group for oldies. There are some churches that are just full of divorcees, others, all the elders are gay. Then theres churches that are for ex-hippies and others for ex-yuppies.
Some churches are predominately just one family in charge of everything, and others are divided among ethnic lines, and if you dont speak the language, or look a certain way you wont fit in.

Other churches are just exclusively for the rich, because if you cant afford to tithe, they dont want you. Its very different to how church is shown in the Bible.

Indeed, there are these & many more with other issues, showing the need for judgment because many in the church aren't ready for the return of our Lord. That & there needs to be a separation from those who will never get ready.

So how many of us has heard that in the last days there's going to come an end-time revival? Where then are the big meetings, the high powered evangelists, & the praise & worship ensambles?
When's it going to start?
Is it going to be world wide?
As close as we are to the coming of the Lord, you would think somebody would starting something by now.
I would like to get your thoughts about this before we look a little deeper into it. Thanks.
We are the revival, why did we choose to follow him? are we content with this so called love and faith that clearly falls Short? do you belive or not do you take him at his word or not? he is not playing around he is not looking for mere scholars decide for yourself or not either you were all in with him or not and time is not our friend if we are not willing to go to the extemes with him if we are nopt willing to seek the truth of all truths we will never see this revival believe go beyond seek the truth of all truths you want to see revival then be the spark ignight the fire be what no one else would dare to be is he the God of the ompossible or not since when has any limitions ever existed with him?

Don't look fior revival be it

Here is a prophecy from the book of Amos about the end times, which I think we are already living in.

Amos 8:11 "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:"

Have you recently visited a church to hear the Word of God spoken in order to understand more about these latter days and what to expect? Did you hear any teaching on these things? —probably not because the "famine" has already begun. All we need to do is look around and see what’s happening in the world today and what‘s being taught in schools. Not good.

Okay. Regarding an end-time revival… YES, there most certainly will be one. Remember that even though the two witnesses will be killed (murdered) before the whole world near the end of the great tribulation, God gave Satan orders to touch not those who have the seal of God in their foreheads (foreheads meaning our minds). Here it is:

Revelation 9:4 "And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads."

Here’s where I believe the revival begins. There will be a testimony given on earth by the elect/Christians before the end of this age comes to an end.

Mark 13:9 "But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony against them."

It appears that those of us who are true Christians will testify against those who falsely identify as Christians while promoting the Antichrist's ideologies. Over and over again in the Bible, Jesus warns us not to be deceived. Why? because there will be plenty of deception in the world. We are called to serve as Christ's witnesses. This is our destiny!

Mark 13:10 "And the gospel must first be published among all nations."

I don't think this is happening now, but I think it will soon when God's elect are singled out and the Holy Spirit of God speaks through them, exposing the Antichrist as the false messiah (Remember, the AC will be claiming to be God).

Mark 13:11 "But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost (Spirit)."

Note: Acts 2:16: "But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;" This prophecy is recorded in Joel 2:28-32.

Acts 2:17 "And it shall come to pass in the last days,' saith God, `I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:”

Acts 2:18 "And on My servants and on My handmaidens I will pour out in those days of My Spirit; and they shall prophesy:"

Acts 2:19 "And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:"

Acts 2:20 "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:"

Acts 2:21 "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.


Every language and dialect spoken by the sons and daughters will be clear when they speak and everyone will understand. It will be God Himself speaking through His servants. The true gospel of Christ will be preached, and this will generate a great revival!

its disheartening to visit churches where there is nothing there or its literally holding you back in your spiritual walk. New believers may get something out of it but they quickly leave because if they stay in one place it becomes a trap of tradtionalism. Traditions of men.

But then theres churches that are other extreme that accept every new fangled thing. So its often easier to just gather in twos or threes, Ive found. Especially in urban areas.

Established churches seem to be crumbling under the weight of ungodly practices that were shoved under the rug in the past. Jesus checklist of seven churches in revelation showed only two that met with his approval lol
