"to want Jesus to come now, is to say I am all set, therefore get me out of here,  I dont care if the rest go to hell"

But I can't wait for that blessed day. Can you imagine seeing all the people down through the ages Being reunited with all your loved ones and meeting all the people who were faithful that aren't mentioned in the Bible. The Bible says, in Revelation 7:9: "After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands."

I want to meet Jesus and the Reformers and those that God used to bring bursts of revelation to the last day church. What courage and faith those men and women had. :D Oh wow! For me I do not wish for a incorruptible body or a crown but just being in the very presence of God is enough for me.  

You can only imagine the wonderful thins God has in store for us. And to imagine we don't even deserve any of it..

Asking this question requires a lot of faith because wanting God to return means that persecution and all kinds of evil will run rampant. It means putting our trust and being prepared for such a time. I think all in all it makes me remember that He can only come when our work is done - and that is telling people about God's soon coming and to prepare others for it. If we are doing our part and are ready to stand for Jesus we can ask God, "How much longer?" but if not we're only fooling ourselves.

I know that Jesus's coming is very soon. You can see it and you can also see how the last day message is being presented to the world. Currently God's last warning message is presented in more than 900 languages and dialects. Nearly 95% of the world's populations have access to this message.

Amen although we can't see it sis! & can't understand why always remember it's in his plan! These things must happen before his return! It can be overwhelming @ times but we must pray & lean on GOD! Everyone can't preach on prosperity someone must talk about things 2 come! Let's continue 2 pray 4 one another & encourage each other in Jesus name;)

I think I've already been thinking "How much longer, Lord?" There is just so much pain, so much evil. It's hard for me to look at it without it tearing at my heart.

It does seem like things have gotten worse, not just with wars, etc., but Satan is attacking families and churches and pulling them apart. I'm seeing it and even somewhat experiencing it and it's so hard to see God sometimes, yet I cling to Him. He's the only steady, loving God who can help us and get us through this.

How Much Longer, Lord?

By David J. Smith 10/30/10

 

The world is in a mess, and we seem to be helpless to change things. We look at the Middle East and come to the conclusion that continued death is inevitable. The radical Islamics are following the same pattern that has been used on nations that were targeted for overthrow – make the country ungovernable by using violence!!!

In the 1980s, the Union of South Africa was targeted for overthrow because they were not under the control of International Bankers. Nelson Mandela, Communist head of the African National Congress, waged a relentless war on citizens that cooperated with the white government. They bombed police stations and assassinated government leaders that were cooperating to end apartied [race separation] in a peaceful way. Mandela was captured. He spent 27 years in prison because documents were found with his signature affixed that stated he was a Communist. His objective was to make South Africa ungovernable until the country fell to Communism. The U.S. State Department put sanctions upon the legitimate South African government until it collapsed.

In 1966, terrorists from around the world met in Havana, Cuba to receive training from the Russian KGB. The largest number of participants attending the conference was from the Middle East, Muslim countries. At the end of the conference and training sessions, they decided to wage terrorism on EVERY continent to force world-government.

Terrorism fits right with the radical Muslim program of world domination. WHY? Listen carefully to past words spoken by Islam! “I was ordered to fight ALL men until they say ‘There is no god but Allah.’” [Prophet Muhammad’s farewell address, March 632 AD]. “I shall cross this sea to their islands to pursue them until there remains no one on the face of the earth who does not acknowledge Allah.” [Saladin, January 1189 AD]. “We shall export our revolution throughout the world … until the calls ‘there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah’ are echoed ALL OVER THE WORLD.” [Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, 1979 AD]. “I was ordered to fight the people until they say there is no god but Allah and his prophet Muhammad.” [Osama bin Laden, November 2001].

A New World Order is what Communism wants. It is what radical Islam wants. It is what the Catholic Church wants. It is what International Bankers, that control our Federal Reserve System, want. It is what the Illuminati wants. It is what the honorary 33rd degree Freemasons want. It is what the Third Reich of Hitler wanted. It is what the Order of Skull & Bones, of former President George W. Bush, his father and grandfather wants. It is what Mikhail Gorbachev wants. It is what the Bilderbergers want. It is what the Ink & Scroll secret society wants. The list could go on and on.

These organizations all fund activities that produce chaos. Their motto is “Order out of chaos!” It makes one cry out: “How much longer, Lord?”

We have witnessed infiltration into Christian organizations and watering down what Biblical truths they once had. We have witnessed the Red Horse of Communism march out across the world, delivering intrigue and death everywhere they gain control. We have seen economic chaos in Africa, Communist controlled countries, and soon the more advanced industrialized nations. Then we began to see radical Islam march to the drum: “Everywhere we will take the name Allah and his prophet Muhammad.” They say: convert or die!!!

How much longer, Lord?

All of the mentioned groups and movements hate Christianity. They are chomping at the bit to gain control of America and shut down Christianity. Shutting down Christianity in America will require intense persecution!!! That persecution is described by the Fifth Seal of Revelation 6. After this intense persecution begins, a great earthquake will shake the whole world. For a moment, it will seem as if the world will take all inhabitants in death. Many professing Christians will think: How much longer, Lord?

For some however, it will appear that the world stands still just for an instant. God will send His angels to “seal” 144,000 of His saints!!! See Revelation 7 and 14: 1-6. This group of people will “follow the Lamb where ever He leads!” They will be SEALED for Divine Protection. They will not be “lukewarm” Christians. They will be the ones who have truly “repented” of violating God’s Everlasting Covenant for which Jesus shed His blood (Hebrews 13: 20-21 & Psalm 105: 6-10).

God will provide the protection necessary because of their obedience to Him today. Others will not repent properly and will go through the tribulation to “wash their robes white in the blood of the Lamb.” (Revelation 7: 9, 13-14). The choice is ours today! Will we be a repentant saint and receive protection or remain, “just as I am,” and suffer?

Sincerely,
David J. Smith
