Entry 40
2Chr 30:7 And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the LORD God of their fathers, [who] therefore gave them up to desolation, as ye see.
2Chr 30:8 Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers [were, but] yield yourselves unto the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you.

AS YE SEE
Just take a look around and see the state of the Church today. Take a look around and see the state of this Nation today. If you can't see or won't see the sad and reprehensible state of the Church and this Nation then you will have opportunity to see when the wrath of God is upon both; if you live through it. Already there are and have been for a long time, watchmen and messengers of God heralding the sad fact of the apostasy and warning of the impending and unstayable wrath of God. The wrath of God is coming upon the Church and this Nation. It will not be stayed. You who survive will have the opportunity to look around and see with your eyes, the devastation.
There will be those called of God, even as Hezekiah, the one whose name means "helped of JAH", to tell you why the wrath of God has come and why it rests on the Church and this Nation. They will direct you to repentance. They will extend the Grace of God to you to return to proper service and worship of the Most High God through Faith in Jesus Christ and His shed blood, death and resurrection from the dead, by the power of His Spirit and His Spirit alone. The money will be gone. The comforts will be gone. The entertainment and the light shows will be gone. The gimmicks and the prosperity garbage will be gone. The heaping up of books and CD's will be gone. At that time you will see of what sort your faith has been. All that will be left is you and Jesus Christ.
Even in the midst of this severe chastisement of God, His grace will be extended to you who survive and live through it. But don't think you can merely puff at these words and just wait till it happens. Now is the time of repentance. Now is the time to turn back to God and a pure and sincere faith. Now is the time to come out of Babylon and fantasy Christianity. You are being warned that you may not live through what's coming.

Rev 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
Rev 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Rev 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

Rev 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
