The Great Falling Away and Lot’s Wife

I am posting two articles that I wrote concerning the revelation of a coming falling away, and the spirit of Lot’s wife and what these mean to believers and overcomers.

lot's wife

The first response is that we have already seen the great falling away that Paul spoke about.  Indeed we have seen a tremendous falling away.  Yet, as with all Bible prophecy, there is always a direct fulfillment that clearly fits the form and function of the given prophetic word.  I address this in the article.

The second thing that needs addressed are the differences between ancient manuscripts and the use of the word for “departure” as opposed to those manuscripts that use the word for “falling away”.  There are an abundance of both, and a debate has waged as to the proper language.  Did the Bible declare a falling away before the revealing of the Antichrist?  Or did the Bible declare a departure of the Bride of Christ?

The answer here may shock you.  It declared both.

Understand, that both definitions are found in manuscripts that are dated from the early church – going back as far as 50 to 100 AD.  These manuscripts are handwritten copies of the original works, copied by the disciples of the Apostles and their students.  They were copied in the age of Rome and the great persecutions of the church.  The similarities in the words used reveal the mindsets of the authors, depending on the lens in which they viewed the world around them.

If the writer of a particular manuscript lived further from the persecution of Rome, they may be inclined to think one way as opposed to another.  A writer of a manuscript that witnessed the death of Christians in the Roman arenas may have a slightly different take on just how close the world was to the tribulation.

One author may see the tribulation as imminent, and view the soon return of the Lord with a great deal more favor than an author living on the edges of the empire.  That author may see a more idealistic interpretation as they would have witnessed the conflicts between the ideas of Christianity and the pagan religions.

So, in his limited understanding, man embarks on a discourse that declares one of these interpretations as incorrect.  Charges of agenda and tampering get leveled at different camps, and those that deny Christ quickly jump in the fray.

“See, we cannot trust the Bible!  Man has added and removed those things which suited his agenda!”

To this day, I do not understand how the Lord was able to assemble the Bible, spread the Gospel, build the Christian west, and send missionaries throughout the rest of the world.  I know He has all power in heaven and earth, but according to so many detractors – he could not even supervise the building of His own Bible!

You see, both interpretations are correct.  We have witnessed a falling away in the last 30 years.  There is yet another great falling away to come, one which will bring the direct fulfillment of the scriptures.

Similarly, there is a departure of the Bride coming as well.  We have detailed the soon return of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in great detail on this site.  The question arises with regards to the revealing of the Antichrist.  This also confirms both interpretations.

We cover the revealing of the Antichrist in the page “The Rapture Bombshell in 2 Thessalonians!”  The revealing of the Antichrist comes before the start of the tribulation, and not the Abomination of Desolation.

There will be a falling away of the believers AND a departure of the Bride with the revealing of the Antichrist – before the signing of the seven year agreement with the nation of Israel.

Never forget – the hand of the Lord is always on His word.  If the Lord desired there to be one interpretation as opposed to the other He would have made it so.  It is His word and He is sovereign.  Instead, He saw fit to preserve both meanings and carry them through 2,000 years.  Unlike the last days apostasy in which Satan’s efforts to rebrand sin have given us apostate Bibles, the preserving of both definitions was born of the start of the church.

The difference between these two definitions being given by the Lord, and the current attempts to rewrite the Bible can be summed up in a singular statement:

The two definitions were central to bringing the established doctrines of the Body of Christ and the birth of the Bride.  The current attempts to rewrite the Bible come now, at the end, when the things of the end are set to transpire.

In other words, the current efforts to subvert the Bible cannot achieve their intended goals.  We are already at the end, and those responsible shall soon know the folly of their ways.

Here are the two articles on the falling away and the spirit of Lot’s wife:

I wrote this the day after the election.

I was asked by a friend if I thought that the election was evidence of America turning around, or more specifically if it was a sign that the judgment of the Lord would be held back.

So, I thought this was a good time to share with you what I shared with him.

Utter-Destruction

Short answer – no, God’s judgment will not be turned back.

Unfortunately, what happened Tuesday night (November 2014) was quite the opposite. Rather than a beacon that it is not too late, it became a harbinger that the next phase of the run up to the tribulation has begun. More on this in a moment.

So, here is a short list of points that bear remembering as you look to understand what has happened:

The results of Tuesday night were born of economic frustration above all else. In other words, many that voted did so out of economic fear. While there was no real plan forwarded by the RNC for the national agenda, the vast majority of the Republican candidates campaigned on the repeal of Obamacare and the economy.

This is a real problem. Here is why:

The judgments of the Lord can only be stayed through one mechanism alone – national repentance. This is the one quantity that remains in very short supply.

Issues such as gay marriage, abortion and sexual freedom remain prevalent, especially amongst many on the “right”. There is an unspoken undercurrent to these things in the hearts of many. It is an understanding that there is a “benefit” to allowing such things to manifest and spread.

If others are permitted to indulge in their perversions, those on the “right” can likewise indulge in their perversions.

Furthermore, there remains a growing trend towards “Christian silence”. It is not just Islam that wants to silence those that serve Christ. More and more conservative unbelievers, as well as those I term as “patriot unbelievers” also desire to see the Bible pushed from the public conscience.

The more Christians are silenced, the less our “brethren on the right” will hear of how Friday nights in the bar, Saturday nights at the casino, Thursday nights at the party, Saturday mornings at the drunken tailgate party, wasting money on the pursuits of lust without giving a single dollar to the church – or any worthy cause for that matter, faithlessness to their spouse, pornography and fleshly indulgences all violate the Word of God, and that there is a very real Hell waiting for those that refuse to repent.

In other words, there are many on the right that finally stood for their God given freedoms – yet they actively choose to rub God’s nose in how they spend that freedom.

How long did you think the Lord would allow a growing number of Americans to take the abundance of wealth He provided, and pull it away from spreading the Gospel?

When alcohol, sexual sin and lust are the most desired expenditures of a God ordained wealth – rest assured that wealth will cease.

I mentioned earlier that the election kicked off the next phase of the coming judgments of God. I think it is an accurate description to declare this as “The Tribulation Cometh – phase two”. There is something that we need to understand here.

Not one of the current prophetic harbingers of the coming tribulation vanished with the election. There was not one example of the rolling back of the prophetic fulfillment’s that came after the first blood moon. To the contrary, the Muslim minaret was raised over New York City, and the WTC opened for business under the dominion of Islam on Monday morning. It was the inverse of September 11, 2001.

That fateful day saw the final Monday of the western Christian world dawn. The next day brought the events of September 11th – a day that changed the world and set it on a course from which there would be no recovering.

This week (the week I wrote this article, not the week of 9-11), we witnessed the completion of the soft conquest of America by Islam. The Muslim minaret of victory was raised on the Freedom Tower at the site of the WTC, and the next day saw the national election – the day that cemented to path to the tribulation.

Again, the election saw no reversing of the prophetic course on which we find ourselves.

The election did not stop the lunar cycle. Blood moon number three is coming, right on schedule. It is bringing the coming signs in the sun as well.

The election did not erase ISIS from the world stage. Indeed, the Babylonian Empire shaped map of Iraq and Syria still exists – and it is growing in the same manner to which Babylon also grew. Yes, the media is still wondering after this new born beast, and declaring that no one seems able to stop them.

The election did not turn the hearts of militant Muslims across the west. They still sit poised, waiting for that moment to explode in a blood filled orgasmic rage of beheadings and slaughter. They still look to a soon coming day where they will be able to indulge in every blood soaked fantasy of power and domination.

The election did not eradicate global Ebola or any of the other viral plagues that arose from nowhere, and remain silently growing and advancing. All of these diseases still sit one catalyst away from a run on the global extermination circuit.

The election did not suddenly abate the decline of the dollar, turn the hearts of the west from catastrophic greed, nor erase the Shemitah from God’s calendar. 29 Elul is still on the Jewish calendar, and it will still come in September of 2015.

It should be noted that these are the exact events that will manifest into global judgment with the return of the Lord and the breaking of the first seal in Revelation chapter 6.

No, the election did not change any of these things. It did not change the hearts of men. Most voted their personal finances, and have no ability to see beyond their own selfish desires. This will be the final fatal mistake.

Understand, the prophetic harbingers will increase and intensify in the coming months.

This election will serve to cement the last piece of prophecy that must come before the soon return of the Lord – the completion of the days of Lot and Noah.

The days of Lot and Noah deliver a dire warning to all that have an ear to listen. They tell us that the judgments of the Lord fall at a time when the world will expect them not, yet all the while the signs and warnings were present. The days of Lot and Noah consist of three primary elements – the warning, the removal of the righteous, and the advent of total judgment – all occurring in this order.

There is a singular condition that the Lord warns of in these days. In the days of Lot and Noah, the world continues about its business – blissfully unaware of the total annihilation soon to fall. The great tragedy is that the unrighteous had no need to perish. In the case of both Lot and Noah, the Lord gave a final warning before the doom descended.

In the case of Lot, the people of Sodom attempted to even molest the messengers of God. As it is with our own day, those to which the warning was delivered likewise scoffed – to their own demise. In the case of Noah it was even worse. The world had witnessed the construction of the Ark, and even had a seven day final warning as Noah turned to loading the ship.

It failed to register with the doomed that so many animals had “magically” assembled outside an Ark – built on land – wherein no rain had fallen.

How, exactly, does one justify disregarding such a sight, a sight that had no earthly reason to exist? How do you not wonder about such a thing? Imagine this – two of every animal on the earth, many of which you have never before laid eyes on – gathering at a boat built on land.

A land where there had been no rain;

No reason to believe, but for a great big boat and a bunch of mysterious animals that materialized out of thin air it seems;

Yet, it fails to register that maybe the guy that built the boat might be on to something.

That is what occurred with the election. I have watched the news coverage since, and the reactions from different sectors including social media. There is an air of victory on the right. That in and of itself is expected, and not necessarily a bad thing – except in what it portends;

Complacency. A complacency that will start with America, and spread throughout the west and the world.

Long story short – a lot of “worry” went right out the window on Tuesday night. You could hear a collective sigh and proclamation:

“I get my life back!”

Indeed, this is the collective sense from many today. It is not that the country believes that everything that has transpired over the last six years will suddenly be “undone”. It’s that the natural tendency of humanity is to “forget” very quickly when faced with their own lives and problems.

It will not take long for our nation to slip back into the self-induced coma of complacency, moving down a road that leads to future planning, career advancements, financial investments, season tickets, affairs, vices, hobbies, etc. In short, we will soon be blinded by our own flesh and short sightedness. We will see “brighter days” ahead, and exercise that most American of traits:

Self-absorption.

We will become painfully unaware of the world, and lose sight of what is before our very eyes. We will lose sight of the soon judgments of the Lord, despite that fact that the Ark sits completed outside our own doors, and Lot is pleading with us to head for the gates.

We will lose the ability to see the obvious – the election was national. The judgments will be global. One national election in the U.S. no longer has the ability to stay the hand of the Lord. That day has passed. It passed for the final time in 2012.

We blew it.

What has been done cannot be undone.

Our judgment cometh, and right soon.

In the name of Our Blessed Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

 

Here is the second piece I wrote on the falling away and Lot’s wife:

November, 2014.

There is a great falling away of believers coming.

This statement likely comes as a surprise to many of you, and not because you doubt the falling away.  Rather, it comes as a shock because most of us see a great falling away even now.  Surely, there can be no doubt that a falling away has occurred.  However, there is something that I have come to understand as of late, and it is something we are seeing play out before our very eyes.

All prophetic scripture has a direct, literal fulfillment.

Sodom_Gomorah_3544203224_bdbfefb9d8

What does this mean?  Simply stated, it means that while we have indeed witnessed a falling away, there must be a moment of prophetic fulfillment well beyond what we have have seen manifest over the last 40 years or so.  It must be a moment so clearly defined that it seems as a single event.  In short, there must be something specific that can be pointed to as the great “falling away” prophesied by Paul.

Indeed, it is coming.

Over the past two weeks, the Lord has been revealing to me the nature of this coming falling away.  This process started with the election and has grown since that day.  It finished last night with the final pieces of the revelation, and orders to share this today.

Soon, some of you will begin to doubt the times we are living in.  You will see what appears to be a “change” coming in the winds.  It started with the election, and will advance forward very slowly.  We may see the news stories about Republican successes with regards to the White House. If so, these will not be big successes.  Rather, they will be small victories with incremental progress.  

There will not be any large, overarching victories – but such victories will not be needed.

When you have went days without water, even a sip seems as an oasis.

From the election to the third blood moon in April 2015, there will be a slow, steady diet of “something seems different” that will capture your imagination.  You will dare to hope for the first time in a very long time.  You will start to entertain a new, yet exciting thought. . .

Is it possible that we are not heading into the tribulation?

You will not yet accept such a thing, but the seed is now planted.  This can happen with any number issues as well.  There will be something personal that speaks these words to you.

It will be a quiet, ever-present thought lurking in the back of your mind.  It will manifest quietly at different times.  It may be during a newscast that touts improving jobs numbers (5.4 percent as of June 2015).  Perhaps it will be an announcement that the White House has “backed down” to a Republican demand.  Maybe it will be the news story that confidence is starting to rise in the financial sector.  It will not be dramatic news stories – just stories that hint of “possibility”.

You will entertain that “possibility” very quietly – then you will put it away.  You return to the reality of the moment, yet there is little less certainty in what you know in your heart to be truth.  You know the judgments of the Lord are coming.  You have seen the signs.  You have shared the stories where actual scriptures have been fulfilled.  Yet. . .

This process will repeat many times in your head over the next four to five months.  Again, nothing dramatic and overt ever comes to declare to all the world that the Lord has stayed his hand.  No, this is a battle and process that rages in one theater alone – the heart, mind and soul of the believer.  It was a battle that was prophesied to come 2,000 years ago.  It is a battle that will shift your focus.

Confusion, doubt and uncertainty are stalking you now.

You will begin to lose sight of the actual undeniable signs that the Lord has given us.  You will replace the dramatic global signs – such as the blood moon tetrad and the signs of the sword in the sky – with the personal observations that you cannot escape.  Less and less are your thoughts to what you have witnessed prior.  Now, your thoughts are dominated by what you see before you.  Things seem to be “improving”.  Surely, this has to mean something.  After all, you have seen many awaken in the last couple of years.

Then will come the total solar eclipse over Israel and third blood moon on Passover.

However, this time you are not nearly so impressed with these signs.  We have already seen two feast days blood moons.  There are always solar eclipses – even over Israel.  No, these signs will not have the same impact.  Why should they?  You have witnessed a slow returning to better days.  The White House seems to be losing its power.  Perhaps there were rulings from the Supreme Court that strengthened the prospects of a return of the nation to the Bible.  Whatever it ends up being, you can see with your own eyes – things have begun to turn.  Only time will tell what these signs will actually be.

Now you are ready for the falling away.

In the months that will follow the third blood moon – en route to the fourth and final blood moon – the hint of change that started in the United States will flower outward to the rest of the western world.  The European economies may seem to somewhat strengthen.  Islam will appear to hit a growing resistance.  ISIS may even suffer defeats and setbacks.  Russia may appear to slow down, easing its growing appetite for domination.  There are any number of things that can manifest here.  There is no telling what we will see.  What started as the signs of change in the U.S. have begun to spread to the rest of the world.  The sun seems to be rising a bit higher and higher over a world that seemed on the brink of annihilation mere months ago.

Surely, the Lord has turned from His anger.  Why, the proof is all around us now – the tribulation has been called off!

You will lose the ability to see the things in the world for what they are, and what they mean.  No matter how bad the news actually is – and it is no stretch to say that it will get worse – it will not affect them.  In their heart and mind all is well with the world.  They will descend into a blindness that is beyond words.

It will not matter that in the final days before the return of the Lord, the world will see a shift towards judgment occur.  By the time this shift occurs, and the overcomers know the return of the Lord is at hand, the rest of the believers will be well on the way to destruction.

This does not address the absolute blindness that has already set upon the rest of the world.  They cannot be helped by this time.  That is the whole reason judgment must now come in the first place.  The world has left God at the altar, and will never return to Him.

Judgment is all that remains.

It is the overcomer alone that will keep their eyes to heaven, knowing and understanding the days before them, and the terror soon to come upon those that do not watch.

Things “seemed” to have turned around so dramatically that you will even be looking to the future once again.  Notice, I said “seemed”.  More on this in a moment.  You have always wanted to travel.  Perhaps you really do need to sit down with a financial adviser and talk about your retirement goals.  Maybe the time has come to really consider starting that home business you keep thinking about.  After All, you do bake the best cookies in town.  That does not mean that the trouble is gone.  The Lord would not have warned us in so dramatic a fashion otherwise.  Yet, it is clear to you that the danger is passing.  Enough of us heard the warning and the Lord has stayed His hand.

Think of it – the blood moon tetrad no longer means that danger is coming.  This time, it will conclude and the world will still be here.  The Shemitah means nothing now.  The Lord has declared mercy and the cycle is broken!  These are the thoughts that now dominate your mind.  Fear for the future has slipped away.

You now scorn those that speak of the Shemitah and the blood moons.  Those that still speak of coming judgment clearly do not see the things in front of them.  These things have past.  Those that refuse to move on are washed up relics, too afraid to admit that they no longer hear the Lord.  After all, it has become obvious to all that have eyes to see:

The world has bounced back from the brink – and even the conflicts in Israel could not shake the nations!  Israel may even be the clincher for this revelation that the Lord has turned from His wrath.

Understand, Psalms 83 and Isaiah 17 still sit poised to fall.  Yet, what if the world does not crumble when they occur?  What if the effects of these conflicts remain regional, with the rest of the world holding serve in this time of renewed possibility and prosperity on the horizon?  It will never enter your mind that the Bible never tells us that the world enters judgment from these prophecies.  It is only Gog / Magog that bring actual global calamity.  These prophecies are the forerunners to Ezekiel 39 and 39 – nothing more.  Yet, you will not recall that detail as these things unfold before you.

Yet, all these things will be nothing more than an illusion.  It will be a lie that will shepherd in the final fulfillment of the days of Lot and Noah:

Luke 17:26-29 KJV – And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. ~

From this lie shall come the last remaining prophetic fulfillment before the judgments of the Lord begin to fall.  These things will set the stage for the start of the tribulation and the destruction of many who call “Lord, Lord”.

That is how the great falling away of Second Thessalonians will come.

As many believers become more and more wrapped up in their own lives, they will lose sight of the fact that the signs in the heavens have not ceased.  It will not register with them that all of the prophetic fulfillment’s we have witnessed remain firmly in place.

ISIS will still be ever present in Babylon.  It will continue its drive to domination.  Ebola and the various plagues and pestilence will continue to grow and spread silently – evolving into their final apocalyptic form.  Ebola will sit poised – along with the other viral plagues that seemed to have surfaced from nowhere – to strike the earth at its unleashing with the third seal of Revelation chapter 6.  The “apparent” improving of global economies – especially those of the west and United States – remain the same package of lies and deceptions that sit patched together with duct tape.  Any real economic disasters will not register with the world as the harbinger of the soon judgment of God.

All the while, the undercurrent of radical Islam has readied itself – penetrating the mosques of the west.  200,000,000 Islamic storm troopers stand ready to strike in the west.  These events are still front and center in the world – even if they slip from CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, The Washington Post, etc.

29 Elul is still on the calendar – and it is still coming.

*** Since this writing, we have witnessed an incredible unfolding of prophecy.  We literally see the “Ark” outside our windows, and the rain clouds are heading in.  Yet, at the same time, there has been an unprecedented departure from prophecy and watching by those that claim the name of Jesus Christ.  

It has reached the point that many believer now attack overcomers for speaking of the end times and the soon return of the Lord.  There is a growing offense among the Christian community for the mere mention of the rapture.  Anything that serves to remind the body of Christ as a whole that the Savior is near – even at the doors – is widely denounced in many circles now.

These attacks come in the most cowardly fashion now.  They are not outright denouncements of the return of the Lord.  Rather, they come in the form of “admonitions” that we need to drop the “rapture rhetoric”, and concentrate on the message of salvation alone.  While it is beyond the scope of this particular article, we have covered numerous times where the promise of the soon return of the Lord is EXACTLY what we are be preaching in these days.

For that matter, it is to be the PRIMARY message, as it is the open door to understanding salvation in a time where the world knows that doom is just around the corner.  It is the Blessed Hope that sets Christ apart from everything else.

The false gods and false religions of the world cannot defeat the tribulation.  It amazes me how so many that claim Christ do not see this one truth.  Why a pre-trib rapture?  Simple.

Because it is something that no other god or religion can do!

For those believers that absolutely clamor for their shot at the tribulation, understand this.  If going through the tribulation is the proof that you serve God, then the god you serve is false.  You see, Hindus will go through the tribulation.

Muslims will go through the tribulation.

Sikhs will go through the tribulation.

Atheists will go through the tribulation.

Buddhists will go through the tribulation.

Jews will go through the tribulation.

Everybody will go through the tribulation. . . 

Except for those willing to stake their life on the promises of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  This is what separates them – and Him – from every other god and religion.

If you hold an idea that makes the Savior nothing more than anything else in the world – then you serve a false god and have false doctrine.

All of these things are the soon coming manifestation of the seal judgments in Revelation chapter 6.  Yet, many believers will lose sight of them in the coming months.  They will turn from the reality of the times to embrace a mirage.  They will have spoken of the things to come – yet they never gave up their prior lives.

They became the embodiment of Lot’s wife.  They could not stop looking back.  They were running from the coming judgments, yet their hearts were affixed firmly to the life of this world.

Luke 17:31-33 KJV – In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

Remember Lot’s wife.

Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. ~

If you seek to save your life – you will lose it.  These words confused me for a very long time.  I struggled with the structure of how they were presented.  As with many of you, I also had issues with seeing the Bible for how it is written, that it means exactly what it says.  One day, the Lord opened this up to me with a simple statement, whispered quietly to my soul as I was reading this passage:

“Whoever seeks to save their life – the life they have now – shall lose it, for eternity.  Whosoever shall lose their life – they life they have now – shall preserve it, for eternity”.

The revelation in that moment was simple and profound.  Lot’s wife had looked back in the midst of the escape.  The Lord was saving her life, yet she could not look away.  Now, here comes the real trouble.  Have you ever wondered why she was looking back?  What was it that could hold her attention to the point that she could take her eyes off the Lord – in the midst of escaping judgment – and look back longingly to what was being destroyed?

Most read the story of Lot and miss something that is key to what is coming.  The Bible tells us that Lot was sent to warn of the impending judgment.  Yet, he is not sent to warn the Sodomites.  He was sent to warn his own family.  We find out that these warning were received as a joke.  In other words, they thought Lot was crazy.  Again, this wasn’t the world that refused Lot’s warning – it was his own that turned him away.

When Lot’s wife looked back at Sodom, it was not for the city that she mourned.  It was for her own family members.  She looked back in mourning for those closest to her, that would not heed the warnings of the Lord.

When you look at the story of Lot and take a tally, the same number emerges as in the parables spoken by the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ:

Half.  At least half of those that should have escaped with Lot perished.  Half of those that the Lord warned did not heed.  Half of those that should have been set without the city by the angels of God remained to die.

The number could have been more, as the parables – when taken together – tell us that more than half of those that call “Lord, Lord” will perish.

The Bible does not actually detail how many of Lot’s family were left behind.  It does not detail how many children Lot lost in the destruction.  It tells us only that his two virgin daughters and wife were all that heeded the warning of the two angels.  Yet, in the very last moment, right as the judgments were set to fall – Lot’s wife looked back at what she was losing!

What a shame to have made it to the point of departure, only to be left behind because you could not turn away from this world!

How many believers will watch their faith crumble at the last minute?

How many believers will watch their lamps go out as the Bridegroom comes?

How many believers will weep and gnash their teeth as the see the terrible shortage of oil in their lamps?

How many believer will wail and bargain with God as the rapture sweeps them by, leaving them to the fate they have chosen?

We will speak on this more in a moment.

This is what has been in the hearts of many believers that have come reluctantly to the table, and recognized that the times of the end have come.  Now, in the coming closing days before the tribulation, they stand poised to fall for a great deception – one that clearly flies in the face of the things that Almighty God Himself has been showing the world.  They will be so desperate to return to the “way it was” and embrace their prior lives that they will gratefully drink the sand and call it water.  They have been looking for a reason – any reason – to discard what they know in their hearts to be truth.

Here is the kicker – it will not matter what position you hold on the soon return of the Lord.  Understand, the deception that brings the great falling away is designed to catch EVERYBODY.  It is designed for an end run, and many will fall to it.  You see, it doesn’t matter when the Lord comes with respect to the tribulation.

If the tribulation has been halted – if the judgments of the Lord have been stayed – then there is no need to even look for the return of the Lord. . .

It is simply not yet time for Jesus to come back!

That is what is coming in the next few months.  We will witness the literal fulfillment of the falling away.

I have never felt the grieving of the Holy Spirit so much as I did last night, when the Lord gave me the final pieces for the falling away.  It is a profound heartbreak to the Lord, and that heartbreak was evident as the Lord gave me understanding.  As He took me through the various components of the things to come, He emphasized three scriptures that encapsulate the coming falling away, and what it will mean for believers.

Here are the scriptures the Lord gave me, the order He gave them in – and the format in which He wanted them presented:

~ That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ~

This is the warning of the Lord delivered to me.

During this this time, many overcomers will be called to stay the course, and speak the coming judgments of the Lord.  However, the heaviest opposition to your words will not come from the unbeliever.  

It will come from Lot’s wife.

It will come from those believers that have run into the arms of a deception that gives them back that which they never wanted to give up in the first place – their earthly lives.  Expect the very worst words, treatment and accusations to come from this segments of believers.

Now comes the bad news.

In the parables of Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 17 and 21, the Lord uses specific and recurring numbers.  In most cases they center on half of the people mentioned in the parables.  Ten virgins, with five wise and five foolish.  Two in the field – one taken.  Remember, there are no accidental or errant words in the Bible.  To the contrary, every last word on earth must be accounted before God Himself.  So it is with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  He never gave a number, word or order of events that was arbitrary.  All these things have specific and critical meaning.

The numbers in the parables bring to light a sobering and heartbreaking truth – no less than half of all believers will be cast into the outer darkness, with the number likely to be considerably higher when all of the parables are considered.  For some this will mean the tribulation.  For others – it will mean Hell.  This was the reason for the absolute heartbreak and grief that came through the prayers of the spirit as the Lord firmed up this revelation for me:

Some of those believers that will read this warning are already doomed.

2 Peter 3:3-4 KJV – Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. ~

This is the Great Falling Away prophesied to come.

It is upon us now.

In the name of Our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
