There is a promise from Jesus to the virgins eagerly awaiting Jesus' appearance when He arrives. The promise is precisely to the virgins who have a love of the truth and for the truth. SO ABOVE EVERYTHING, ASK JESUS FOR THE ABSOLUTE LOVE OF THE TRUTH! Ask Jesus to transform you by Grace so you love the truth like He does.

2 Thessalonians 2:13-17 "But we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth. It was for this He called you through our gospel, that you may gain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught, whether by word of mouth or by letter from us. Now may our Lord Jesus Christ HIMSELF and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, COMFORT AND STRENGHTEN YOUR HEARTS IN EVERY GOOD WORK AND DEED."

We know for certain that Jesus loves His Bride and will not leave her here on Earth during THE Great Tribulation. Jesus knows the Holy Spirit is IN HIS BRIDE. The Holy Spirit does not need to go through the Great Tribulation. The Holy Spirit will not be removed from the Bride. Jesus is not going to abuse His Bride through the Tribulation before marrying her. Jesus would not subject His Bride to the same wrath all the sinners will receive. Jesus came to Earth and offered His Bride the Wedding Cup and He made THE PROMISE to return for her once He and His Father have finished building the House (end of the Gentiles).

John 14:1-4 "1 “DO NOT LET YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED; BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME. In My Father’s house are MANY DWELLING PLACE; if it were not so, I would have told you; FOR I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU (His Bride). If I go and prepare a place for you, I WILL COME AGAIN AND RECEIVE YOU TO MYSELF, THAT WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY ALSO BE. And you know the way where I am going.”

Jesus made a serious promise to the Bride of Christ, and I trust He will keep it. DO NOT TRUST PREACHERS OR PEOPLE BEHIND THE PULPIT (Dealers). TRUST JESUS AND HIS WORD ALONE (It can’t be bought). If you don’t know the Word, stop everything you are doing and begin to SOAK IN THE WORD OF GOD.

Matthew 25:6-10 "But at midnight there was a shout, ‘Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. The foolish said to the prudent, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the prudent answered, ‘No, there will not be enough for us and you too; GO INSTEAD TO THE DEALERS AND BUY SOME FOR YOURSELVES.’

When Jesus appears, He will becoming for His Bride, to meet her in the air, to be “caught up” with His awaiting Bride. If you are not waiting, you will miss it. Obviously, the “waiting virgins” are the “practical virgins,” they are those BELIEVERS who are awake, alert, and eagerly waiting with filled flasks WHEN HE ARRIVES. For those not waiting, the foolish virgins, they will miss it.

Matthew 25:10-13 "And while they were going away TO MAKE THE PURCHASE, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut. Later the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open up for us.’ But he answered, ‘Truly I say to you, I do not know you.’ Be on the alert then, for you do not know the day nor the hour."

Who are “THE DEALERS” in Matthew 25:9? What did the unwise virgins go to “purchase” from “the dealers”? The Word of God? Truth? Whatever it is, or was, we know it was not enough and they missed the wedding. Their purchase from the dealer was too late.

Mark 11:15-16 "Then they *came to Jerusalem. And He entered the temple and began to drive out those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves; and He would not permit anyone to carry merchandise through the temple."

I don’t think Jesus is pleased with the way the Word of God has been merchandised, and all those PAID PREACHERS who are preaching and teaching are also profiting off of the word of God, it does not look good for you. Hmmmm… I wonder if the money they received in this world is their only reward?

John 2:14-15 "And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables;

I believe THE DEALERS mentioned in the book of John are modern day preachers and Bible teachers. DEALERS include ANYONE WHO SELLS, OR IS SELLING the Word of God. Remember, Jesus overturned the tables of the money changers and released all the sacrificial animals being prepared for sale. Jesus did this turning over act twice, once to begin His ministry and once again right before He was arrested and crucified. STOP SELLING THE WORD OF GOD.

Matthew 21:12 "And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves."

DEALERS are paid preachers and teachers, those behind the pulpit and employed by churches. A “dealer” is any Christian man, woman, or child who has written and sold a Christ-centered book, CD, DVD, or music. STOP! You are inadvertently giving up your eternal reward for the pleasures of Babylon. Repent and give it all back—send it to Israel!

1 Peter 2:9-10 "But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; for you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

We are CALLED and EQUIPPED NOW to spread the Gospel, to love everyone, and to serve God in His Kingdom. We are not called to make a bunch of money by peddling the word of God. Sorry for stepping on toes, but if you are selling the Word of God, you need your toes to be stepped on. You will thank me later!

Luke 13:24-25 "Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’

We are all aliens and strangers to the Earth. We are here to serve and to love the illegal immigrants (what a great opportunity). Don’t kick them out, love them and preach the Gospel instead. WELCOME THEM AND DISCIPLE THEM TO BE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST. What are you afraid of, losing your job or your 401k? Seriously!

First Peter Two: Eleven "Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul."

We are to serve and to love the homeless and the drug-addicted. Can you imagine millions of drug-addicted people coming to the Lord, being delivered, and then sent out to evangelize the world? What are you waiting for?

Ephesians 2:19 "So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God’s household,"

Do not fight the word of God. STOP. Instead, learn the word of God and flow with it. You can’t buy the word of God, you must soak in it and allow the Word of God to transform you, from the inside out.

Hebrews 11:13 "All these died in faith, without receiving the promises, but having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth."

The New Wine Skins - The Decentralize New Church Model

Jesus’ promise is that our fruit will remain. Jesus promises us, that whoever builds upon the foundation of Christ, their fruit will remain. Not much will get through the fire of the Great Tribulation. The only thing that remains is that which is build upon the foundation of Jesus Christ. Jesus, THE ONE NEW MAN has replaced BABYLON. The Kingdom of God with Jesus reigning and ruling on David’s throne in Jerusalem, will destroy and forever replace Babylon.

Mark 2:22 "No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost and the skins as well; but one puts new wine into fresh wineskins.”

The Bible declares, COME OUT OF BABYLON. It means, stop trusting in the Babylonian system, instead, trust the Goodness of God by Grace. Instead of fighting for my own prosperity, fending for myself and my family, in the Kingdom of God everything is provided by Grace. Therefore, we will thrive in Decentralize cities and communities. Never again allow evil to take over entire communities, cities, states, nations, and continents and negatively influence the world.

Matthew 9:17 "Nor do people put new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wineskins burst, and the wine pours out and the wineskins are ruined; but they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”

The suffering Lamb and the Lion of Judah, the lamb of God who is also a warrior King.

1 John 5:19 "We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one."

Harvest of Grace, the Grace Harvest. Watch and pray, seek God and His Kingdom and His righteousness, His plan of redemption and Salvation and share it with everyone–literally everyone! Time is short!

John 17:15 "I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one."

Pioneers building Legacy. There are Pioneers of THE BLESSED HOPE, God’s people equipped to build now on the foundation of Jesus Christ with THE PROMISE that anything built upon Jesus will remain through the fire–THE WRATH TO COME.

Revelation 20: 2, 5 "And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years... The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection."

Jesus is the suffering Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, and He is coming back to Earth, a second time and this time He is coming with His Bride as the conquering Lion of Judah. This is what we are waiting for, the promise of a Messiah, the Warrior King who will SAVE US ALL.

Revelation 20:6 "Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years."

The Grace Harvest, or the Harvest of Grace is at hand. Remember, GRACE SAVES. We are SAVED by GRACE. The Father and the Son have raised up and sent out end time PIONEERS and LEGACY BUILDERS, building upon the rock–BY GRACE.

Ephesians 2:5-10 "even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them."

Jesus came as the Lamb of God and took away the sin of the world, all of it, by Grace. He is coming back a second time, but this time with His Bride, the Church–BY GRACE. Jesus will appear in the clouds to meet up with the dead who have been resurrected AS WELL AS HIS BRIDE, IN THE AIR–BY GRACE!

1 Thessalonians 4:17-18 "Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words."

Build upon the rock, by Grace, build everything upon the Word of God and the promise is, your (His) fruit will remain. Anything not built upon the rock, will burn up, yet you yourself will be saved.

Matthew 7:24-27 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.”

The last two sentences of the Bible, a kiss from Jesus Himself, are captured in the final two sentences of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, as the Apostle John wrote on Jesus' behalf, "Yes, I am coming quickly, and the Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all."

Revelation 22:20-21 "He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming quickly.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen."

When Jesus appears we will be like Him as we will be given Glorified bodies.

1 John 3:1-3 "See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

You can't save yourself; SALVATION IS A FREE GIFT OF GRACE. You can't do anything to earn SALVATION.

2 Corinthians 13:14 "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all."

The Bible is clear about many things, especially about our responsibilities. We are to judge ourselves and determine that we are NOT WORTHY, and WE ARE IN NEED OF A SAVIOR. Judge yourself before you get judged. Let Jesus SAVE YOU COMPLETELY!

1 Corinthians 11:31 "But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would not be judged."

God, through Jesus, promised to rescue us from the domain of darkness and transfer us to the Kingdom of His Beloved Son. I don’t know why so many strong male Christians refuse to identify as THE BRIDE OF CHRIST. Blinded by pride? Who knows? They throw away the RAPTURE (Salvation) and at the same time, acting in false bravado they are hell bent on enduring through the Great Tribulation. Good luck with that!.

Colossians 1:13 "For HE RESCUED US from the domain of darkness, and TRANSFERRED US TO THE KINGDOM OF HIS BELOVED SON,"

God promises to work in us and through us, because we can't, and this gives Him great pleasure. Yes, IN OUR WEAKNESS GOD SHINES! Don’t you realize, YOU CAN’T RESCUE YOURSELF.

Philippians 2:13 "FOR IT IS GOD WHO IS AT WORK IN YOU, BOTH TO WILL AND TO WORK FOR HIS GOOD PLEASURE."

After you have suffered for a little while (in this life) God promises you to rescue and perfect us HIMSELF. If you do not know the Word of God you do not know God, and you do not know His Son, Jesus.

1 Peter 5:10 "After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, WILL HIMSELFperfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you."

If you don’t know the Father, you don’t know His Grace. Jesus came in Grace to establish TRUTH. Our job is to LOVE THE TRUTH.

John 1:12-17 "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. John *testified about Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.’ ” For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace. For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ."

According to the Bible, what we could never do, GOD DID. Our part is to BELIEVE. Our part is to be grateful, thankful, and to PRAISE HIM as we REJOICE!

Romans 8:3 "For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, GOD DID: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,"

As one of the many promises of Jesus Christ, HE DID WHAT WE COULD NEVER DO.

Romans 8:28-30 "And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, HE ALSO GLORIFIED."

From the beginning, God has given us GRACE. From the beginning, what we could not do, GOD DID. God sent Jesus, and as He promised the Father, HE SAVED US! Our part is to BELIEVE AND SURRENDER AND FOLLOW, ALL BY GRACE! By now, you must know the love of God, and that means, eagerly waiting for HIS BLESSED HOPE, THE RAPTURE.

Romans 12:1-2 "Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect."

Have You Heard About THE Narrow Door?

Seriously, have you heard HOW NARROW THE DOOR ACTUALLY IS?

Luke 13:24-25 “Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’

Jesus claims His sheep will know His voice, and they will KNOW HIS LOVE. They be sheep.

John 10:14-15 "I am the good shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me, even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep."

Sheep are not know for their smartness, they are known for trusting and following ONE VOICE. Be a sheep, and as a wise and prudent Bride, prepare for the rapture.

2 Corinthians 6:16 "Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk among them; And I will be their God, and they shall be My people."

Follow Jesus VOICE, read and study the word of God–THE WHOLE THING. Do not believe a man, not me or any other man. Do not remain in UNBELIEF by KNOWING THE WORD.

Hebrews 3:19 "So we see that they were not able to enter because of UNBELIEF."

If you do not open your Bible and study, and pray, and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal Jesus, you will be deceived. People who read and study the Bible do so because THEY BELIEVE. Unbelief is not good. It is very bad. Can you imagine missing the rapture when it is promised

Matthew 13:58 "And He did not do many miracles there because of their UNBELIEF"

Trust Jesus and His voice alone. Jesus is the Word of God, TRUST THE WORD.

John 15:5 "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing."

Without Jesus, we can’t do anything. Apart from Jesus, I don’t want to do anything. Apart from Jesus, we shouldn’t try to do anything. However, In Christ, nothing is impossible. Those who BELIEVE are SAVED. If they won’t BELIEVE, they can’t be SAVED. Those who BELIEVE THE WORD ARE RAPTURED, and those that doubt in UNBELIEF, they go through the Great Tribulation and must endure to the end to be saved. How sad!

Luke 18:27 "But He said, “The things that are impossible with people are possible with God.”

If you don’t believe in the rapture, you are in UNBELIEF about the rapture, and you won’t be raptured, guaranteed. You will get exactly what you believe. Are you 1,000 percent sure about the rapture? Did some man teach you to be in UNBELIEF?

Romans 10:9 "that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;"

Jesus said, DO NOT FEAR and DO NOT BE TROUBLED about a million times. If we were waiting for the Great Tribulation, how would we not be troubled with fear? Come on, just think! Use the brain God gave you. Satan has been lying since the beginning. Adam and Eve only needed to take the words of the serpent to the Father. Instead of trusting the Word of God, they trusted an outside voice, the voice of death.

John 14:1 "Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me."

However, if you were waiting for the Rapture, how could you fear it? If you were waiting for the rapture, what would you fear? Why would Jesus say, over and over again, DO NOT FEAR, DO NOT LET YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED? Just remember, without Jesus, we are all toast. With Christ, however, we have nothing to fear. If you don’t already know Jesus, if you don’t already know His love and commitment to His Bride, you would not be waiting for the Rapture because you don’t know Him. You only know about Him. Those waiting to be raptured, KNOW HIM, we know His extraordinary love for His Father and His Bride.

Ephesians 3:19 "and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God."

Knowing about Jesus is not enough, YOU MUST KNOW HIM and you can only know Him by BELIEVING HE EXISTS. By faith, you must become HIS BRIDE. Those who do not believe they are the Bride will not be raptured because of unbelief. You will get what you believed for–what do you believe?

1 John 2:14 "I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one."

I have a stern warning for rapture deniers. John warns us about removing or adding Scriptures to the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Remember, it is dangerous to remove or deny any of the Scriptures in Revelation of Jesus Christ. Do not take anything away, or add to. JUST BELIEVE WHAT IS WRITTEN.a

Revelation 22:18-19 "I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book; Revelation 22:19 "and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the tree of life and from the holy city, which are written in this book.""

The last words I want to hear is, “I Never Knew You!” Jesus came in Grace to establish TRUTH.

2 Corinthians 12:9 "And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me."

Jesus did what I could not do, what you could not do. Ask Jesus Himself about the rapture!

Matthew 7:21-27 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’ “

Believers and followers of Jesus Christ, let’s stand firm in our faith and eagerly await the fulfillment of ALL GOD’S promises which are YES and AMEN in CHRIST.

Ephesians 6:11 "Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil."

As we look to the imminent return of our Lord and Savior, let us embrace our calling to preach the full counsel of God without compromise.

Ephesians 6:13 "Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm."

Remember, the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men and instructing us to live righteously in truth in the present age. Time is short, and the harvest is plentiful. Join in the mission to spread the Gospel to all nations.

Matthew 28:18-20 "And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Stand firm, be zealous for good deeds, and comfort one another with the hope we have in Christ. Let us live as wise virgins, filled with the Holy Spirit, eagerly awaiting our blessed hope—the glorious appearance of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

SPECIAL NOTE:

A message to all the YouTube prophets! WITHOUT SHAME, KEEP PREACHING THE FULL COUNSEL OF GOD! You are doing a beautiful job! So encouraging! PRAISE GOD!

1 Corinthians 9:18 "What then is my reward? That, when I preach the gospel, I may offer the gospel without charge, so as not to make full use of my right in the gospel."

BEWARE: DO NOT MONITIZE YOUR CHANNEL. REMEMBER, YOU HAVE A BIG PROMISE COMING. GIVE UP BABYLON AND BY GRACE PREACH WHAT GOD GIVES YOU. Give up the money and the reputation, and just PREACH THE WORD OF GOD! Time is up, what are you waiting for?

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 "But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, EVEN SO God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that WE WHO ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN UNTIL THE COMING OF THE LORD, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. THEN WE WHO ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN WILL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS TO MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR, SO WE WILL ALWAYS BE WITH THE LORD. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words."

KEEP PREACHING the entire Word of God, without monetizing, and do not leave out a single word or promise!
