The World Will Miss The Church

In the eighties I lived in a small Texas town. There was this man I worked with that always gave me a hard time and no matter how I humbled down to him I could not make him happy.

This man was not my boss just a co-worker and I just wanted to get along with him and do my job. All the other people on the job really liked me, my boss and all the other workers but this certain man kept riding me.

I finally went to the boss after this went on for quite a while, and told him that I was doing everything I could to satisfy this person and the boss said you don't have to make him happy ,I am the boss.

Well things continued, I was even threatened by this man, after awhile the Lord opened up a door for me to relocate to another state for ministry work.

I put my two weeks notice in, and before I left I did not know why at the time but every time this man would give me a hard time I could not get angry but would just smile and say ," You are going to miss me when I am gone" Until I moved every time he said something I would just say "You're going to miss me when I'm gone ,he would respond ,he was glad to see me go.

Well after moving to another state after about a year I moved back to Texas to a different city. About 2 yrs had gone by and my former boss had moved to the same area in Texas I moved to. I ran upon him one day and he was talking to me and began to tell me he had left that city a while back and that the guy that had given me such a hard time had cancer, my heart really was filled with sorrow for him and I began to pray for the man. A short time later I saw him again and he told me the man had died. That was not a happy moment because even though the man had given me such a hard time, he still had a soul.

I said all that to say this, we are in a time now when the Christians in America are despised, and people are doing everything to silence the Christians and take Jesus out of everything. Christians that stand for the pure Gospel of Christ are being told certain things they cannot say, it is considered improper to pray in our schools, at school functions to the point small children are being harassed by school officials.

America's court system decided one day to take prayer out of the schools, well look what is in the schools now, crime, gangs violence and !!! metal detectors!!. Are you happy courts?

You would think this nation would be awake by now, look at all the destruction and calamity in this nation and the world.

Isaiah 5:20 "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"

Look at all those that have came against God and His Christ Jesus and the people of God, all type of tragedy came their way.

Well you that would like to see all the Christians gone, realize this one thing, It is because of the people of God that the full wrath and indignation of the Lord has not been poured out upon the earth, but don't' worry about silencing or getting rid of the Christians because God is going to do that for you! That's right God is going to do it for you and give what this generation of God haters think they want.

1Thessalonians 4:16-18

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.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Revelation 6:9-17

9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Revelation 16:8-11

7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.

9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

( Mr. Gore, perhaps you have a point about Global Warming, only it will be greater than you can imagine)

Regardless of who you are, what nation or what ever your religious up bringing , is it is not too late for you to repent of your sin and receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. You may have been a despiser of God and His Christ Jesus and the people of God, but even as Jesus appeared to Saul on the road to a city called Damascus to apprehend the Christians and place them in jail and even cause some to be put to death, Saul meet Jesus ,he repented accepted Jesus and the Lord called him to preach the same Jesus he persecuted and love the people he had persecuted. Acts chapter 9

If you are an unbeliever in Christ Jesus ,you did not just happen upon this site by chance but this is your road to Damascus! It is time for you to repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ that you and your household might be saved.

Romans 10:8-21

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

If you have believed and obeyed the Word then praise the Lord for your new life in Christ Jesus and say like the Apostle Paul said in Philippians 3:13

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.
