The only way out of this is to follow Jesus. He is the true revolutionary. Following His path will take us peacefully through the coming storm.<br /><br />The world will pin its hopes on the false messiahs and will be led to destruction. They'll believe in the government lies right to the end and then will be left out in the cold to die.<br /><br />There will be NO political solution to this because the politicians have no solution. The troubles are coming and it will be through individuals working through their families and communities that we'll see the world reform into something that God wants. But we have to follow Him to accomplish this.<br /><br />The politicians are in league with evil and will be used by Satan to misguide and confuse the people.<br /><br />That's why I believe that it's absolutely vital that Gods people begin to retreat from the world, right now! We can't forget about the others or stop trying to get them to understand but the time is here that we have to start thinking about ourselves and our families. We have to untangle ourselves from the modern world so that we can see the truth when it is shown to us.<br /><br />I feel this is the time to simplify in every part of your life. Get ready for the forced simplification that is coming so you're better able to handle it. <br /><br />The time of grace we've been allowed is about to end; it may already have. All I can say is there is a real sense of urgency now that wasn't here a year ago.Catawissa Gazetteerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04939761313614220536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3857800884501324974.post-15638021519165072152010-11-07T07:11:25.185-06:002010-11-07T07:11:25.185-06:00We should at this point recall the conversation th...We should at this point recall the conversation that Jesus and Pilate had at the Praetorium in Jerusalem. Nothing has changed in 2000 years. Some key points are these:<br /><br />(1) Jesus Kingdom is NOT of this world.<br />(2) Pilate asked the perenial question that every politician asks, "Truth - what is Truth?", even while he was looking eternal Truth righ in the face.<br />(3) The rabble no differently than today wanted released "Barabbas" which translated means "Son of the Father"; who was this father but that great Accuser which translated is "Satanos."<br />(4) And what was Barabbas but a "revolutionary" who offered change and hope.<br /><br />John 18:33-40<br /><br />So Pilate went back into the praetorium and summoned Jesus and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus answered, "Do you say this on your own or have others told you about me?" Pilate answered, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?" Jesus answered, "My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my attendants (would) be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not here." So Pilate said to him, "Then you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say I am a king. For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice." Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" When he had said this, he again went out to the Jews and said to them, "I find no guilt in him. But you have a custom that I release one prisoner to you at Passover. Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?" They cried out again, "Not this one but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a revolutionary.Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05269978181247175900noreply@blogger.com
