Going today after church! Feel fortunate to be going, was pretty much sold out when I looked for availability on Tuesday. Good to see so much interest in this movie. Probably will be one of the first movies banned after the trumpet call.
Glad you enjoyed the movie, David! We’re about to leave for the theatre ourselves. Thankful to hear that Mossad (?) carried out a successful drone attack. To hear Iran tell it, Israel is out to damage their every roof :)
Good morning Tipping Point Family, and thank you Pastor Jimmy for this post particularly. I have been in the process of creating a new "timeline" of the end times and this helped me in a few areas that aren't specifically stated. It isn't possible to create a timeline that is exactly right because some things just aren't stated with specificity, but it is still helpful (and educational/fun) to be able to look at something and get a visual of how things might happen. Anyhow, this helped with a few of those.
Two prayer requests I know of that came about over the last few days:
*Kari and her family are battling a tough bug, including her Mama. Please pray over them for quick healing.
*Art Martin is facing uncertainty and is needing wrapped in our prayers as he is serving as caretaker for his uncle in the end-stages of COPD. His faith is as strong as humanly possible and he is still praising through fear and tears, but we all have a point where we will cry out "Give me faith when I have no more to give Lord." Praying over others is a blessing I am the most grateful for, but those prayers have to be followed with action as well. First and foremost, please be interceding for Art and his uncle right now, but please think of how we can come alongside him as well in addition to the prayer.
I know others have prayer requests too, so please give them. Repetitive asking is GOOD...God actually tells us to keep asking! Make us a list???👇👇
So true, my friend, and I certainly lift up Miss kari
and Mr. art, and all their family members surrounded by their needs especially little mama.
I know the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God,
so I lift them up to the throne of Jesus, and ask for Jesus to touch them, and heal them, so that God gets the glory, and so their testimony is about how God intervened.
Y'all thank you for your prayers. It was a rough early morning, but hoping today will start recovery. Best medicine is your prayers and the coming Texas snow!! ❄️
Jesse and I are adding Kari, her Momma and family into our prayers this week for healing and restoration and for Art to receive God’s loving peace and support in his time of need. We will declare in Jesus name; hope and light and even moments of joy over any spirit of discouragement, dismay or fear and a revelation that they are both held in the Father’s righteous right hand.
I’m a walking miracle friend and feeling great and getting better and better each day. God has been good to me and I tribute that to many TP friends who prayed over me and tipped the heavenly bowls in my favor. I believe in the power of prayers.
PRAISE GOD!!! I can't tell you how happy this made me. 🥹 After learning your story more and more from your journal, I certainly understand how you are a walking miracle! So happy for you and your family Angel. Still praying and believing here!
Would love to see your timelines (if possible) when you're finished.😊 Thanks for the prayer updates. Always pray for those you list. And your right..repetitive asking is good. Thanks for the reminder as sometimes I feel like I'm bugging God and don't want to bring others down by requests. Hope your family are all doing well. Any new prayer request needed for you, my friend? 🤗
Of course! It is taking a little longer than I was hoping because of my case load, but I made some good progress on it this last week. Still a little ways to go but I am enjoying it. I have a couple of others that would like it as well, but I am also going to post it on that blog-thing under my profile here as a download for anyone who would like it, or to help critique it. Timelines for the end times are almost impossible to get 100% correct because some of it is a guess, but much of it is able to be graphed I think. I'm just basing it off of Pastor's Mark and PJimmy.
Excited to see the movie when it comes out later to purchase online. I wanted to share a remarkable couple of dreams that I had a couple nights ago. I had been praying intensely as I am trying to line up new work in my new area we moved. I am also navigating some natural fears-doubts about a number of relatively minor things, though they can pile up if not resolved. I had prayed some rather strong pleading with the Lord and went to bed. Got up and stoked the fire middle of the night, went back to bed. Had two different dreams early in the morning. The first, Jesus came and met me, face to face. I paused for a second and then rushed to embrace Him. It was an overwhelming outpouring of emotion that came rushing out of me as we embraced for several seconds and I was just embracing Him intensely. All this emotion was just pouring out of me. It was overwhelmingly intense. I couldn’t even talk about it the next day because it was so emotionally overwhelming. When you are holding onto Him like that, you realize total and complete fulfillment, love, acceptance, joy and fully knowing/fully being known. In my waking world, sometimes I have a hard time knowing what I am feeling. It seems there is some sort of mechanism in me that seems to cause me to detach from my emotions or certain ones at certain times. He also did something I would never have thought of. He showed me how much I love Him. It’s one of those things your mind kind of has an idea of, at least for me, but you have a hard time feeling it the way we will when we are always with Him. Probably a bad explanation. In any case, I couldn’t even talk about it for most of a day because I couldn’t keep my composure. Near the end of our time hugging, He showed me that His return is literally right at the door. In that setting, it seemed like a mere second or two that the door was going to open. In His perspective, I don’t know the earth equivalent except that it really is a very short time away. In the second dream, I went to heaven. It was definitely a lesser version of heaven than what I’m sure we will see. But it was a very nice time and pleasant there. I did seem to notice that there was less people there than I expected. I’m sure however by the time we do get there, there will be a large multitude brought in by the end of it all. So I have a lot more peace than I have lately after the face to face meeting with Him again. It just puts everything in perspective. I’ve met Him probably 3-4 times in dreams and neither of us has yet to say a single audible word. But it hasn’t been necessary either because there is a full understanding and knowing between us. It is not necessary to speak because you know the feelings and thoughts of each other completely. I’m sure there will be plenty of speaking later, it is just an incredible experience. And being directly with Him, He is really meeting me in these face to face dreams and it is all I want to do, is be with Him. Nothing on earth comes close to the experience. Anyways, I am hoping that the share is uplifting and encouraging. I would encourage you to ask Him to directly meet you or speak to you or show you things, whether in visions or dreams or in person. I did that night and He met that request immediately and I really was in need of it. He’s at the door friends and wishing you all a wonderful Maranantha today.
I am glad it was encouraging. It was really helpful for me as it makes Him seem so close all the time right now. For all the worldly things we have to deal with, just that He is already walking right with us all the time. For me, it made everything else fade away and it still seems like that when I look out there or am out there. It was more helpful than anything I could ever imagine..
Thank you, dear brother, for asking for Jesus to come to you. Thank you Jesus, for being faithful to show Justin your complete love and acceptance. Thankful that you shared Justin, and how it encourages us! You describe His love so beautifully. Wow!
The Lord woke me in the middle of the night last night with a burden to confess past specific sins that I am so ashamed of, which still seem to condemn me, as if God just can’t quite forgive something so bad. I believe that He woke me in order to finally put this to rest. They have been confessed before (many times), and it is lack of faith on my part that I can go on, knowing I’m forgiven. But, the consequences of my sin will bother me until I’m made whole in heaven.
Thank you so very much for loving us in this community enough to encourage (and rarely and graciously correct us), Justin! We love you 💙
I'm going to jump in here Blondie. I've held on to old sins too. Don't you think God is up there shaking his head at all of us saying " enough already!". 😄 Every single believer has a multitude of sins in their pasts. We are forgiven! Those old sins have been thrown in the fire and incinerated long, long ago. I know you know this and I'm glad God woke you up to tell you this once again. 🤗
Oh, precious Blondie sin shall not have any dominion over you anymore. You’re washed clean by the blood of Christ.
the battle ground of our walk in Christ is our mind, and that “accuser of the brethren” ( lucifer)
is constantly going before the throne, bringing up our past sins.
When he is standing there, God would have to look past Jesus to see him and God doesn’t move.
He doesn’t look around his precious son the perfect sacrifice to listen to the accuser of the brethren. I’m haunted by my past sins as well, but I begin to worship, I turn on Pandora, put on my praise and worship music, and I just praise God through the condemnation, which is exactly what we will do when we get to heaven.
we will be so overcome just like in Justin‘s dream of the love in the how much he cares for us, and we will fall on our faces with the 24 elders and we will worship the only one worthy of our worship.
Hi Blondie my BSF friend: please know that even if you still feel consequences from this sin that you have confessed; I’m always reminded of Corey den Boom who said: God had buried our sins in the deepest sea and put up a no fishing sign and remembers them no more. Just my little 2 cents to share. Love 💕 you Sister. Be blessed and stay well. 🙏❤️
I know how you feel Blondie. I truly do. My past haunts me. Almost everyday I'm reminded of something I need to repent for. I do it and then keep on keeping on, and praying the Holy Spirit keeps cleaning house. Thank you hon for being who you are. A wonderful, loving, kind, and very generous child of our Father. Love you Blindie!!🙏💗🌻
Love you back Blondie. You have a great and blessed of the Lord day! God is good!! Just so you know, to me, y'all are the blessing. Praise Father for all He does in all our lives! I have joy, joy, joy, down in my heart. Praise God!!
Love you too my dear friend 😊. I know what you are talking about, from what you described. The enemy keeps coming against us with accusation and condemnation. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. He may convict our hearts, which is different than accusation and condemnation. Everybody, I think, has “those sins” they are so ashamed of from their past. That make them look something else than who they really are. We all hate to even look back at those times. I sure understand how it makes you feel. But not who you are, not who we are. So glad He sets us free. So glad for your long and faithful friendship here 😊. Sundays blessing my friend.
Thank you Justin. My friend who is in a memory care facility used to tell me the same: “there is therefore now no condemnation…” and I’ve missed her encouragement so much. So what did the Lord do but send you to remind me of “Judy’s verse.” Wow.
Thank you for sharing your heart and your wise words, once again. Blessings to you, Melanie, and your kids, including your little spitfire girlie💕🤣
Of course my friend and always so great to see you. We are blessed. I interviewed with the state today for work and I think it went well. God bless and keep you and yours as well.
So happy to. I feel like I am on some kind of euphoria ever since it happened. I keep feeling that embrace and all of those things we are waiting so faithfully to fully understand. Praying you have a blessed Sunday.
"euphoria".. that's exactly the word I thought of when I was reading about your hug with Jesus.. even typing the words gives me shivers... man I can't wait!!
Oh Justin, that was soooo beautiful! Jesus truly loves you, that's so clear! I also think though that part of him showing himself to you in this way was meant for all our benefit also. WE all need to hear these stories to keep us lifted up and keeping our faith strong. I really needed your story this morning. Thank you dear Justin! My emotions were completely shut off this past week because I was struggling with how I was feeling. For me, I think its a coping mechanism until Im able to fully process things. It truly feels like the enemy is trying to kill my son and as though God is just going to allow this to happen. I thought that God had opened up a door toward saving him and then last minute it was slammed shut. Last minute the insurance company decided not to allow him to get treatment. The thought that keeps circling my brain this morning is that faith isn't real if we're just believers when things are easy and go our way and we're meant to keep our faith strong no matter the situation we're in. My initial reaction is to think " I knew God didn't really care about me or my family". But then I put my destructive thinking behind me and choose faith. I choose Jesus....no matter what happens next. Satan...get the hell away from me and my family. I'm going to trust God. May God bless all of you pouring your hearts out to our father today. 🌷
My sweet Jessie. I'm so sorry that this keeps happening to you. I am praying for y'all. I love you my sweet Sister in Christ. I have faith that God has a perfect plan for your son and that if we all just keep praying for y'all to recieve His wisdom, it will come. Hon, God is good, and He would never hurt you or your son. My heart says that that place is the wrong place. God's will be done.
Hey Justin, me too. I needed this time with y'all so much today. God is so good.
Thank you Father, for all these folks you brought into my life. I'm so grateful Father, and I love each one of them. You are an awesome God and You heal me . I'm so excited Father to worship at your feet, and serve you with all my heart. In Jesus beloved and holy name I pray, AMEN!!
He is so amazing. As I was holding on to Him, I was just saying “dad, dad, dad” over and over. Such a sense of being my Father as I was holding into Him. ☺️
Hello my friend, thank you for the nice share, and your trials you have been struggling with. That is a great struggle you are talking about. Anything to do with our family is always hitting us in a sensitive spot. I believe you are right, that this was meant to encourage everybody here and that I share this with around my area. I am so sorry that the insurance company chose this perhaps pushing back against them may work. One of our challenges is the faith and perseverance can’t really be fully developed without adverse circumstances. I will be praying for you and your son as you wrestle with that situation God bless you and bring your favor as you seek care for him. I know for a fact that he is holding you close every step of the way.
"One of our challenges is the faith and perseverance can’t really be fully developed without adverse circumstances"
Yes...bullseye. 🎯
We are pushing back with the insurance. And we'll continue to fight this. I guess God's trying to mold me into a warrior woman instead of a doormat. 🙄 And yes, I know his presence is there even in those moments I can't feel him. I'll keep reminding myself. Love to your family Justin!
Thanks Jessie and please know you are a great inspiration to me as well. Watching you grapple and overcome the world and the enemy in His power. Onward to victory!
Yes Jessie God will make a way when there seems to be no way ( insurance for your son). God fights our battles and I can’t wait to see how God will provide for you to meet those needs. Keep us updated! God will be Glorified and you will be blessed and strengthen in Him! 😘
Amen 🙏 Jessie. In the authority of Jesus’s Name I agree in prayer with you that Satan be rebuked and his hands off of you and your son; y’all are property of the Lord Jesus Christ and no weapon against you will prosper. Satan is a liar .cheater and deceiver and his days and times are short. I get mad at him too and rebuke him out of my life. My body and my apartment. So stay the course and be strong; Satan can not have us or our children. You are the head and not the tail; above and not beneath. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Enjoy your week and keep the Armor of Christ ( our heavenly clothes) on. Love 💕 Sister. He is coming soon.
Oh Jessie. I’ve missed you but assumed you were busy. Which you probably were. So sorry for this long, long trial. I’m grateful that the Lord gave you the time to feel your feelings and then gently remind you that He is faithful. Imagine how things we don’t understand on this side of heaven will be made clear in heaven, if we even remember them.
In agreement we say “get behind me Satan!” And we trust our trustworthy King. Love you sweet pea ❤️
Praise the Lord, Justin. I can't imagine being so blessed. I would ask how to get to that point of intimacy, but I'm sure it is different for everyone. Besides, I'm dealing with a lot of anger right now, and doubt He would show Himself in my dreams. God bless you Justin. Love you Brother!!
Jesus doesn’t have any prerequisites you must complete or fill out before he wants to give you a hug, come as you are to his throne of mercy and grace climb up in his lap, lean back against him, feel him breathe as he holds you❤️🙏⬆️
Love you too my friend. To answer your question, I would think I am one of the last people to be deserving of such an encounter. I have shortcomings in pretty much every department, don't feel like I've earned it or deserve it. I have so many doubts at times or feelings of unworthiness or other littany of things. It is so hard for me to understand His love most of the time, or even accept it because I feel so unworthy. But when He meets you, He peels all that stuff back because you instantly realize how incredible and completely loving and accepting of you He is. Not because of what we do, but because of who we are. We are His children. Like how I view my children - I never love them because of anything to do with their performance. I love them because they are my children. Right or wrong, always love them. It helps me understand and accept it better. I am sorry you are struggling with anger. I have been there many times and it is an island I am always trying to get off during various times of life. I can just tell you that He completely loves and accepts you for who you are and He will faithfully walk with you the whole time you are working on walking away from that burden. I have no question He would show Himself to you, in His time. The Bible says in Hebrews 1 that in the past, He spoke to us through the prophets, at many times, in various ways. But in these last days, He speaks to us through His Son. That was what this was and this promise is for you too. I am the last person you would think of as intimate or close with God on a daily basis. Many other people I know are much more disciplined/deserving. But I love Him deeply, I love His Laws, His righteousness, His goodness. He showed me this clearly, even though it is more of a head thing most of the time than a heart thing, in my everyday consciousness. You have been such an inspiration to me here and seeing your kindness and goodness and I have no question He would meet you or speak to you in His own way that would be tailored just to you. You are far more worthy, as His daughter, of Him seeing you and/or speaking to you directly. I can say this more easily now because of this. And we have that promise in Hebrews for our last days and how He speaks to us. Just wanted to encourage you to ask and keep asking until He meets you. It's helped me see how much more I want to pursue Him and being with Him. It is so worth it.
Thank you Justin. I'm trying to heal from a life time of hurt, and it is so hard. I will keep asking and listening, hoping and praying. I need Him. I love Him. I am working to be worthy. I can tell you one thing, satan doesn't like it. I feel like I'm living in a mine field. Thank you for you loving encouragement Brother. Maranatha!!
Hey girlie! Verna...feelings are just that....just feelings. I never feel "worthy" either but if God says we're worthy, then we are. PERIOD! We are daughters and sons of the King! And yes, we ARE living on a minefield and the enemy will do everything he can to discourage us and tempt us to doubt our faith. I don't have alot of anger but I do have some unresolved scars from the past that like to rear their ugly heads up when I'm feeling most vulnerable. He knows my Achilles heel are my children. He knows all our weak spots and vulnerabilities. Think of it this way, V....If he weren't attacking you, then you would know he doesn't see you as a threat. Satan is intimidated by you and me and all those those see him for the fraud he is. Just remember God's amazing love for you and kick that creep to the curb. I wanted to use a bad word here but restrained myself! 😂 Big hug here!! ❤️
Sweet Jessie, you do a heart good. I'm so grateful that you are my friend and Sister in Christ. A gift of God!! Thank you hon for the Truth you share. Y'all are always in my prayers! Love ya hon!!
Ms Verna, I know you know this, but Jesus alone did the work to make us worthy. We are to continue and grow in our relationship with Him, but our “goodness” is as filthy rags apart from Him. Believe me, sweet sister, I’m preaching to myself. You ARE already made worthy by our blessed Savior, thank God! As am I, thank God! Love you, my sister ❤️
Thank you Ms Blondie. You are so right!! satan messing with me! Thank you hon, for reminding me. I need that sometimes. God bless you hon. Maranatha!! 🙏💗🌻
Thank you Justin for sharing that powerful and uplifting dream., I was just talking to Father yesterday about being so tired of this wicked world and sooooo ready to go home. To keep been reminded that it won't be long but that's it's at our doorsteps is so encouraging and keeps me enduring. God bless!!
You bet and I am glad it was so encouraging to so many, just as it was me. I am so glad to see how you hate wickedness and love righteousness. We will overcome this world by His power and shall always be with Him after this is over.
Wow Justin. What awesome dreams and your encounter with our Lord. He loves and knows us and wants to reveal Himself to His Children. That was an amazing and so real and unexplainable. So special as you had those confirmations with Him. Your walk with the Lord will be so much more meaningful for you as He is always with you and you will be strengthen in your faith as He will always meet your needs (new job opportunities). I led our ladies class today on John 16: The Holy Sprit and how Jesus prepared His disciples for His leaving to go to be with His Father. He was surely with you in those dreams. Very exciting! Amen. 🙏 Be blessed and thanks for sharing your heart. God is sooo Good. Have a blessed and refreshing week as you continue to see how He is working in your life. Love my Brother in Christ.
Thanks my friend. I am so blessed. And so glad to have your faithful friendship. So great you can lead your lady friends with the Bible studies. Praying God also give you a blessed and fruitful week of favor 😊.
Hi Justin, loved hearing about your dreams, face to face and Heaven! I love it when God shows up like that, so personal, so life changing. Such a very loving God. 🌺
Hello...just a side note here. I was wondering how your husband is doing. I'm going to say a prayer for him this evening. I so hope he's doing better. 🙏
My husband is home now but very weak from the icu stay. We just pray for the stability of his heart and that his hip be healed. But he is gradually getting stronger -little by little. Thank Jesus.
He went through something really severe.
He is only home because of Jesus's intervention.
Thank you so much for thinking of us with everything you're going through. Thank you for praying for us. God Bless you so much.
On this site it seems like we all spend time taking turns lifting each other up. Its blessed. Its awesome.
I pray that Jesus rains peace and healing and salvation on you and your son.
Sounds to me like Jesus still has plans for him on this earth. I'm so glad he's stable ( for now) and I pray that his stregnth and healing will keep improving little by little. That's so hard to have to go through and I'm praying for stregnth for you as well. It's so hard to see someone you love have to go through so much. It takes alot of stregnth and I pray God will give you lots of peace and calm during such a difficult time.
Yes, it truly is awesome to have each other to lift up and to take turns lifting us up. If I focused too much on my two boys ( younger with autism) and oldest ( threatening suicide and being destructive), I'd probably go completely bonkers. 🤪 I feel blessed to be able to focus on others needs, instead of just my own. It feels healing to me.
God always gives me moments of peace, even in the worst of times. I pray for that peace for you also. Thank you for your sweet and kind words. You seem like such a sincere and kind person.😊 I do believe my family all have salvation, but alot of healing still needs to be done. God , please cover Hellos husband in your powerful and healing embrace. 🙏
Every time I’ve seen Him, He’s been somewhat like what you would expect. Tall but not excessively, brown hair. It seems like I remember the experience a lot better than His physical appearance for some reason. I was thinking back about this earlier and kind of thinking about that too, trying to remember better 😊
Thank you my friend, I hope your mom and husband are progressing well. I’ve been praying for them. I hope you are also staying healthy with all your kids.
Four of us went to see the Left Behind movie yesterday. Midway through the movie the fire alarm went off. We were directed to leave the theater immediately. Quite eerie. Everyone thought it was part of the movie. Sure was hoping to see the movie for my husband’s sake, for I’m unsure of his relationship with Jesus:(
Dang Esther!! The enemy just doesn't want the truth to come out. Maybe it will run for more weeks in theaters ... I can't see how God would allow just a 3 day run w something so powerful. Having it out there in theaters can have such an impact for those searching for answers in this crazy unhinged world.
We are in Ft Worth, TX and went to see the movie yesterday afternoon. The theater was over half full and many were probably believers. There were a couple people who got up during the movie and walked out which made me think they were uncomfortable with the movie but not sure about that. We have seen all the Left Behind movies and read all the books too. My wife and I loved the movie because of the way they tied into the current events which made us think we really are close! We also loved the obvious evangelical outreach that was happening with the movie and the discussion and invitation given afterwards by Mike Huckaby. Overall I think it’s a great movie and encourage everyone to go see it and bring friends if they will come. Stay until the very end as someone may need to come to faith and we don’t want to interrupt. Most of the people in our theater stayed seated until Mike finished the invitation. My prayers are many will come to faith after seeing it and those saved will be encouraged to do everything we can to reach the unsaved until the Rapture which could come at any moment. Blessings to all of my brothers and sisters, may you be richly blessed by the Lord!!!
Saw the Rise of the Antichrist Friday. I highly recommend to treat your unsaved friends or family so you can be there to answer any questions. Can’t wait to read Pastor Jimmy’s new book and also share with unbelievers. Time is short to fulfill The Great Commission. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus. Amen🙏🏻❤️✝️
I can’t wait either Cynthia I’ve already ordered my book!!!
I finished a book yesterday that was suggested by Kari, excellent book,
“revealing revelation”
by Amir Tsafarti.
Awesome I cried through most of it. I had nothing to do that day so I didn’t get out of my recliner and I finish the book in one day, amazingly easy to understand revelation!!
I'm glad you are a fellow book weeper! It took me so long to read Heaven book because I cried through all of it. I guess I don't think a book is great unless I cry LOL
I was just so overwhelmed at times throughout the book when we would go into that period of falling down before the lamb that praises and worship was just too much .
because it means so much to me personally in my every day life and have been since I was a tiny kid, I grew up around singing my mother and father, sang all the time they sang in church as a duet,
my favorite aunt that passed away this year, played for some of the old gospel groups that are now known as the Gaither groups,
so I grew up with that.
I’ve always jokingly said I bet when I get to heaven, I find out that I’m from the tribe of Levi !!singing and worship it just kept getting to me ❤️🙏⬆️
WOW! Your story brought tears to my eyes!!! Your Aunt was a Gaither!!!!! 🎶 What a legacy of joy & praise & worship passed on generations! Definitely from tribe of Levi! 💛
Amen!!! Hallelujah come quickly Lord Jesus!!! This is the we push against the evil one!! Time to capture souls for Jesus!! Put on the armor of God and fight for our KING!! I pray we are all filled with the Holy Spirit so we go out there with the confidence of our Lord Jesus Christ, rise up all you dry bones and let's fight for our Father in Heaven!! Show the world the love of Jesus our King! I Love you all so much and may the peace that passes all understanding lay on your hearts and minds In Jesus Mighty name 🙏 Amen!! God bless you all always
I went as well to the Left Behind movie yesterday. First time in a recliner chair too!! I was glad to see it wasn't exactly a copy cat of Kirk Cameron's Left Behind as it had a different spin on it. Good to also see the small theater was pretty much full. God's timing bringing this movie forth to the world.
I also saw the recent movie “Left Behind” and the one part that hurt me the most was when they said there was a huge increase in SUICIDES shortly after the Rapture.
And we know from Pastor Jimmy, some of those people who try to commit suicide in tribulation won't die. Literally zombies in real life. They will be "forced" to stay alive though the millennium too.
Yvette, Were you able to read the posts yet? Sadly, it’s just the opposite. Like Jimmy shared, those forced to stay alive are the most wicked humans left on earth. They are the worst of the worst! God won’t allow them to die…although they will try as scripture teaches— They rejected Jesus and took the mark of beast, they are doomed for eternity in lake of fire. They don’t get another chance. These unbelievers will now suffer for 1000 years under Jesus Christ Rule!! It’s Gods punishment for this group. Now for HOPE—As you read the posts you’ll see that there are probably billions of people who reject the mark and accept Jesus as their Savior, some of those new, believers will actually live through the trib!!! That’s the hope! They are now marked with salvation but had to live through the tribulation (Trib Saints). During the 1000 years, those un-resurrected believers will have babies… lots of babies! Those new children will grow up and have a choice to believe in God Almighty and Jesus Christ! Hope that makes sense💛💛
Good Morning TP Family! I love this post today. I have been trying to wrap my head around the Millennial Reign lately. It’s not something I had really studied or thought that much about. I just wanted to stay in Heaven! We saw the movie on Friday, very moving, and makes me want to do a better job of leaving information for those left behind. I have Jimmy’s Missing People books everywhere but I need to have more personal letters in case family and friends are left and come to my house. It’s so hard to imagine what it will be like, will people go to houses of those that tried to tell them about Jesus and what is coming? It’s also hard to imagine people just going back to normal life and living after so many are raptured and gone. Praying you all have a great Sunday!💕
Hi Mel have you read the book Heaven by Randy Alcorn? All the pastors here highly recommend and constantly quote from his book. It will really help you wrap around the Millennial reign, and New Earth....and beyond! It's honestly one of the most fascinating books I've ever read.... and keep re-reading. I agree with you, I started writing personal notes in all my book to anyone left behind. Those books will be life-savers!
Good morning tippers, my question is this, during the millenial reign there will be tribulation survivors who have not made Jesus Lord yet, so during this time will they be personally asked by Jesus if they are going to make him Lord? Will glorified believers be evangelizing in this almost paradise type earth or will the world wide presence of Jesus and the light of God be so intense that when they convert everyone will know? Next thought would be do these millenial converts ever get a glorified body after the thousand year reign?
My understanding is that unbelievers who make it through the tribulation alive will be thrown into the lake of fire when Jesus separates the sheep from the goats. Your question had me wondering though so, I did some searching and found this: https://www.gotquestions.org/Jesus-as-judge.html
Yeah thanks Bruce, I know about sheep/goat time of separation. My thoughts are more on the tribulation survivors that do repent and get the "revelation" if you will. No pun intended. Lol
Jimmy shares, "the Millennial Kingdom will be populated by resurrected believers who were raptured, and return to the earth with Jesus. It will also be populated by un-resurrected believers who survive the Great Tribulation, of which there will be a great multitude (Revelation 7:9, 14). Gradually, these un-resurrected believers will have babies, who have babies, who have babies—some of whom become unbelievers, further populating the Millennial Kingdom with people who will ultimately rebel against Christ (Revelation 20:7-9)." Plus.... all the unbelievers who are forced to live for 1000 years under Christ's Iron Rod (we rule with him too).
That's a great question Chris C .... I agree with Bruce D that any "unbeliever" who lives through the tribulation that's it for them. They don't have anymore choices.They will be thrown in the lake of fire at the end of the 1000 years. Did you know some people won't be allowed to die during the trib even if they try (real life zombies). There will also be un-resurrected "believers" who will be alive and having babies. They survived the trib .... they will receive their new, resurrected bodies at the end of the end. You're correct. Here's 3 great older posts from Jimmy that will help... https://endtimes.substack.com/p/the-millennium-part-2 and https://endtimes.substack.com/p/10-reasons-to-believe-in-a-pre-tribulation-ce5 and Iron Rod - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/blessed-are-the-dead
Also, you might really love the book Heaven by Randy Alcorn! He talks about the 1000 years!
during the 1000 year reign the lion lies down with the lamb ... children play with scorpions etc. I’ve never heard that the people we are to “rule” over wanted to kill us and we’re still quite rebellious towards Jesus.
We aren’t, rather the natural born people living during the millennium period. I am not sure that it is the entire world in complete opposition to Him. To my way of understanding, there is a mix of people, some believing and some not. It does talk about Him ruling that period of time very strictly and we administer under Him in varied roles. At this point, the saints have been resurrected and glorified/purified and we would be incapable of sin at that point.
Justin, do you think those that are raptured due only to them being under the age of accountability will be incapable of sin? They never made the decision for themselves, and it’s always been my understanding that God doesn’t force belief in him on anybody. And without belief in Him, there is no forgiveness of sins. I guess I always thought part of the rebellion would be those under the age of accountability, (including all of those murdered by abortion, etc. that never made a personal commitment to Him. Thoughts?
I think I understand the question but bear with me if I don't quite make the right connection. I believe that when we cross to the other side, whether by death or rapture, we as believers will be purified and our sin nature removed by God. Whether we are in heaven or on earth afterwards. When it comes to the age of accountability, this seems like its own category that God deals with on a little bit different level than those that lived a life and made their choices. It is important to remember that we are all born with a sin nature, nobody can escape that, from the moment of conception. But He deals differently with those that never got to make a choice. Also I believe, like He deals differently with those that never got to hear the gospel. Somehow, in His omnipotence, everybody in that scenario will get to choose, I believe. Nobody will ever be able to look back and think He was unjust or unfair in any manner. Coming back to the question, we only live once, then the judgment. He may have far more things we can't understand now/here for judging, especially those under the age of accountability. From what I can see in scripture, He was particularly fond of children. It has always been my view that the rapture would take most/all of the children in this category, regardless of their parents position. It's not their fault how their parents chose. Only exception I can imagine are those rare examples of children that just seemed to be evil right from the start. I can think of two in my life I know of that just seemed evil bent from the time they were little. To reiterate, once we cross the great barrier, whether by death or rapture, we as believers are made like Him. I think they will too, unless there are some who He judges otherwise. During the millennium, there are the natural born who have never crossed the threshold to eternity and their destiny will be much like what we experience today - some to life, some to everlasting contempt. For the youngsters under the age of accountability, they may much more naturally accept Him and be justified by Him for such. God does provide free will, as you noted and won't force Himself on anyone. But people, and under-the-age-of-accountability may have different circumstances for choosing than we know or understand as we experience life now. I feel like I am missing some part of the question, so please let me know :)
No that was good. I think I made the question more complex than it needed to be. Simple= 2 year old gets raptured. Has to have glorified body to be in Heaven. Probably instantly around 30 years old as many who have died and returned have said this is what they saw. So just wanted to know if you thought that once you are in heaven, with a glorified body, you are incapable of sinning for eternity (even though they were never born-again). Or do they have free will to do what they want until the thousand years is up. And if at that point they didn’t want to follow Christ, they would be judged then at the White Throne judgement. Ha ha, that probably still got too long!!
Absolutely not. God chooses to change those who go to heaven, just like we will be changed 'in the twinkling of an eye' so those babies and children can't be in heaven without that change. They are under the 'age of accountability' which means they won't be accountable at any point! Only the people who are saved during the tribulaion will go to Heaven after us. Pas Jimmy said in this article that the ones left after He returns with us remain under His rule until the Great White Throne Judgement.
Thanks, I think I do understand a little bit better. I see the two-year-old crossing the same divide that we do to the other side. I don’t think they get another opportunity later, the Bible says we live once and then the judgment. And there seems to be a preview of that with the current heaven/hell set up. People are either in one spot or another now, after dying. It is also possible that the two-year-old or aborted babies, for example, don’t need to choose in the same way that we do. They may just be a lot closer to begin with. I don’t know for sure. But I do think that most little ones and aborted ones will go right back to His presence and perhaps in a more grown up state than their earthly body never got, like you said. I just don’t think they live/choose a second time they never have to make conscious decisions the way that we do. God may have some other mystery way of dealing with that, which we have no understanding of. my thoughts anyways. God bless.
I’ve never heard that either Kellie. What is the point of the 1,000 year reign if people don’t have the opportunity to be saved. Millions will be born, I just can’t believe that people can’t be saved or have the opportunity to choose to follow Christ, it goes against everything I’ve understood this far.
Hi Kellie, I agree with Justin... during the 1000 year Millennial Rule, we reign with Jesus! We rule the "wicked" that have now been forced to live under our rule. They will hate us (how could they not) but remember, we are resurrected, we are now the wife of Jesus, nothing can ever harm us. Those of us (all resurrected believers) will not be rebellious, however, there will be un-resurrected believers who will have babies during those 1000 years, and those children will grow up and have to make the same decision as their believing parents. It's honestly mind-blowing! Here's a another great post by Jimmy Evans that will help too -- https://endtimes.substack.com/p/the-millennium-part-2 and... ** https://endtimes.substack.com/p/10-reasons-to-believe-in-a-pre-tribulation-ce5
Jimmy shares, "And for those unbelievers who endure the Tribulation, the despair has only just begun. For the next thousand years, they will then have to live under the iron rod rule of Jesus and His Bride, the Church (Revelation 20). They will hate Jesus. They will hate His followers. But they will be forced to comply with His every command—and ours, too. This will be their worst judgment." post - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/blessed-are-the-dead
and.... don't forget the 1000 years will also include un-resurrected believers... who will have babies! Jimmy shares, the Millennial Kingdom will be populated by resurrected believers who were raptured, and return to the earth with Jesus. It will also be populated by un-resurrected believers who survive the Great Tribulation, of which there will be a great multitude (Revelation 7:9, 14). Gradually, these un-resurrected believers will have babies, who have babies, who have babies—some of whom become unbelievers, further populating the Millennial Kingdom with people who will ultimately rebel against Christ (Revelation 20:7-9).
Jimmy, I really appreciated the summation. It keeps us focused that He in in full control, and that we must remain on target…for souls are at stake for eternity! (Prov 11:30)
First, thank you Steve and all those who are praying for my uncle and myself. I truly appreciate it.
Steve has gone above and beyond with multiple phone calls and text messages. Email too. He walked with me this me this entire weekend and it was a scary one.
So grateful I had Steve to lean on. God used His saint in an amazing way. I know he will be blessed for his sacrifice of time and compassion.
I’ve only known Steve as a comment on TP. I enjoy reading what he shares and appreciate his humor. Being able to talk live, pray together, cry with him, be transparent, and experience his patience and compassion has produced a connection so much deeper than we shared before.
I told him the easiest thing I can do for other Christians in trials and needs is say “I am praying for you”. Takes as long as it takes to type that message and however long it takes to say that pray.
Most of us don’t know each other beyond our screen names and comments in this community. Still, I see some real relationships that have developed. It’s beautiful.
Even more special are those who have found a way to connect with other Fellow TP’ers outside the site. Maybe it’s thru email, cell phones or even in person meetings for coffee since they live geographically close. Real fellowship and encouragement can take place in these interactions that go deeper than comments on a website.
I realize there is risk sharing personal contact information on any site of people who have never met in person. Even our community. Evil lurks in shadows everywhere. Wisdom and discernment is definitely needed.
I have been on a long journey these past 3 years. One one hand, I have experienced incredible growth in my knowledge of my Bible and prophecy. I’ve seen God do some amazing things.
I’ve also experienced the sudden death of my sister and 3 years of care taking that I never asked for but it was put in front of me. I have a complete respect for those who do this as their job. And for those who do it out of love for family.
Nursing homes are full of our elderly who need full time care. Without judging those decisions, I wonder how many could have stayed in their own homes or with loved ones and lived out their remaining days with more dignity, less loneliness and more comfort and peace??? I realize it’s not always possible. Just my thoughts.
I want to share my email for anyone who wants to get to know me, pray with me, or share your burdens. I love people. My heart goes out to those hurting, strugglingly, lonely, scared, or confused. Even better to share in a victory or answered prayer. I have and do go thru all of those feelings. Fellowship with believers is a gift from God.
Your welcome to reach out however you want. No expectations on my end. No judgement for those who want to keep their privacy limited to posts on here. I hope to add a deeper connection between us as we live in these last days, however long God has planned for each of us.
Love in Christ to all! May God bless you with His peace and comfort no matter the circumstances or how evil things get around us. God is faithful and trustworthy. He will bring us home at the perfect time.
Art, you are so precious to all of us here on the TP!! I got hit with the nasty flu bug but so happy to hear you're feeling encouraged. We pray for your strength today! I agree... this is a very special place to be. I think we need to plan a TX mini reunion! Love you!
Saw Left Behind yesterday afternoon. Really enjoyed and highly recommend going to see it. https://www.leftbehindmovie.com/
https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-news/article-729959 Drone attack on Iranian weapons factory was phenomenal success - sources.
Going today after church! Feel fortunate to be going, was pretty much sold out when I looked for availability on Tuesday. Good to see so much interest in this movie. Probably will be one of the first movies banned after the trumpet call.
I'd really like to say something, but don't want to be a spoiler. :)
Thanks for showing godly restraint, David :)
Lol,, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed the movie, David! We’re about to leave for the theatre ourselves. Thankful to hear that Mossad (?) carried out a successful drone attack. To hear Iran tell it, Israel is out to damage their every roof :)
:):)
Good morning Tipping Point Family, and thank you Pastor Jimmy for this post particularly. I have been in the process of creating a new "timeline" of the end times and this helped me in a few areas that aren't specifically stated. It isn't possible to create a timeline that is exactly right because some things just aren't stated with specificity, but it is still helpful (and educational/fun) to be able to look at something and get a visual of how things might happen. Anyhow, this helped with a few of those.
Two prayer requests I know of that came about over the last few days:
*Kari and her family are battling a tough bug, including her Mama. Please pray over them for quick healing.
*Art Martin is facing uncertainty and is needing wrapped in our prayers as he is serving as caretaker for his uncle in the end-stages of COPD. His faith is as strong as humanly possible and he is still praising through fear and tears, but we all have a point where we will cry out "Give me faith when I have no more to give Lord." Praying over others is a blessing I am the most grateful for, but those prayers have to be followed with action as well. First and foremost, please be interceding for Art and his uncle right now, but please think of how we can come alongside him as well in addition to the prayer.
I know others have prayer requests too, so please give them. Repetitive asking is GOOD...God actually tells us to keep asking! Make us a list???👇👇
So true, my friend, and I certainly lift up Miss kari
and Mr. art, and all their family members surrounded by their needs especially little mama.
I know the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God,
so I lift them up to the throne of Jesus, and ask for Jesus to touch them, and heal them, so that God gets the glory, and so their testimony is about how God intervened.
🙏❤️⬆️
prayers out to both Art & Kari>>>
🤗🤗
Love you Glee!
Prayed, and will continue to pray!! Thanks for letting us know Steve!! Love you Brother!
And Miss Verna...we love YOU!
Love you back, Mr. Steve. All of you!!
Y'all thank you for your prayers. It was a rough early morning, but hoping today will start recovery. Best medicine is your prayers and the coming Texas snow!! ❄️
Awww, Kari, rub it in. We were supposed to get a bit of snow. But... . Hey, throw a snowball at someone for me. Anyone will do. 😂😊🧡🙏🌻
Haha I will for sure throw one to you and let see if I can reach Steve!! I’ve got great aim❄️❄️❄️😂😂
Yay!! You are so awesome!! Love you !🙏🧡🌻
So true!! I’m sitting here in shorts with my windows open 😂
Bragger! 😂 I WANT to be sitting in my shorts but instead I'm huddled in my blankets with the heat on. 🙃
I’m with you Jessie (Brrr! From Michigan…dreaming of Warmer days..huddled in blankets)
lol
😄
Miss Kari, hope y'all feel better very soon. 🙏
Jesse and I are adding Kari, her Momma and family into our prayers this week for healing and restoration and for Art to receive God’s loving peace and support in his time of need. We will declare in Jesus name; hope and light and even moments of joy over any spirit of discouragement, dismay or fear and a revelation that they are both held in the Father’s righteous right hand.
Amen!@
Thank you angel. I woke up this morning feeling renewed in body & spirit!!!! And… TX snow ❄️
Praise God!!! He is SO good! Enjoy the beautiful snow!
Angel! Thank you. It's great to hear from you! How are you?
I’m a walking miracle friend and feeling great and getting better and better each day. God has been good to me and I tribute that to many TP friends who prayed over me and tipped the heavenly bowls in my favor. I believe in the power of prayers.
PRAISE GOD!!! I can't tell you how happy this made me. 🥹 After learning your story more and more from your journal, I certainly understand how you are a walking miracle! So happy for you and your family Angel. Still praying and believing here!
Prayers for Kari and Art.
Thanks Steve, praying.... 🌺
God bless you Kari and Mom for speedy and total recovery from the bug, in the name of our great God and savior Jesus Christ.
Thank you SlamDunk!!! I really appreciate your powerful prayer … I’ve missed you here! 💛
Steve
Would love to see your timelines (if possible) when you're finished.😊 Thanks for the prayer updates. Always pray for those you list. And your right..repetitive asking is good. Thanks for the reminder as sometimes I feel like I'm bugging God and don't want to bring others down by requests. Hope your family are all doing well. Any new prayer request needed for you, my friend? 🤗
Of course! It is taking a little longer than I was hoping because of my case load, but I made some good progress on it this last week. Still a little ways to go but I am enjoying it. I have a couple of others that would like it as well, but I am also going to post it on that blog-thing under my profile here as a download for anyone who would like it, or to help critique it. Timelines for the end times are almost impossible to get 100% correct because some of it is a guess, but much of it is able to be graphed I think. I'm just basing it off of Pastor's Mark and PJimmy.
😊
🙏 🙏
Excited to see the movie when it comes out later to purchase online. I wanted to share a remarkable couple of dreams that I had a couple nights ago. I had been praying intensely as I am trying to line up new work in my new area we moved. I am also navigating some natural fears-doubts about a number of relatively minor things, though they can pile up if not resolved. I had prayed some rather strong pleading with the Lord and went to bed. Got up and stoked the fire middle of the night, went back to bed. Had two different dreams early in the morning. The first, Jesus came and met me, face to face. I paused for a second and then rushed to embrace Him. It was an overwhelming outpouring of emotion that came rushing out of me as we embraced for several seconds and I was just embracing Him intensely. All this emotion was just pouring out of me. It was overwhelmingly intense. I couldn’t even talk about it the next day because it was so emotionally overwhelming. When you are holding onto Him like that, you realize total and complete fulfillment, love, acceptance, joy and fully knowing/fully being known. In my waking world, sometimes I have a hard time knowing what I am feeling. It seems there is some sort of mechanism in me that seems to cause me to detach from my emotions or certain ones at certain times. He also did something I would never have thought of. He showed me how much I love Him. It’s one of those things your mind kind of has an idea of, at least for me, but you have a hard time feeling it the way we will when we are always with Him. Probably a bad explanation. In any case, I couldn’t even talk about it for most of a day because I couldn’t keep my composure. Near the end of our time hugging, He showed me that His return is literally right at the door. In that setting, it seemed like a mere second or two that the door was going to open. In His perspective, I don’t know the earth equivalent except that it really is a very short time away. In the second dream, I went to heaven. It was definitely a lesser version of heaven than what I’m sure we will see. But it was a very nice time and pleasant there. I did seem to notice that there was less people there than I expected. I’m sure however by the time we do get there, there will be a large multitude brought in by the end of it all. So I have a lot more peace than I have lately after the face to face meeting with Him again. It just puts everything in perspective. I’ve met Him probably 3-4 times in dreams and neither of us has yet to say a single audible word. But it hasn’t been necessary either because there is a full understanding and knowing between us. It is not necessary to speak because you know the feelings and thoughts of each other completely. I’m sure there will be plenty of speaking later, it is just an incredible experience. And being directly with Him, He is really meeting me in these face to face dreams and it is all I want to do, is be with Him. Nothing on earth comes close to the experience. Anyways, I am hoping that the share is uplifting and encouraging. I would encourage you to ask Him to directly meet you or speak to you or show you things, whether in visions or dreams or in person. I did that night and He met that request immediately and I really was in need of it. He’s at the door friends and wishing you all a wonderful Maranantha today.
This brought tears and encouragement to me! What amazing dreams! I long for him to rescue us so! I guess there’s just more work for us to do!
I am glad it was encouraging. It was really helpful for me as it makes Him seem so close all the time right now. For all the worldly things we have to deal with, just that He is already walking right with us all the time. For me, it made everything else fade away and it still seems like that when I look out there or am out there. It was more helpful than anything I could ever imagine..
Amen Mel. It has me weeping. What a blessing.
Thank you, dear brother, for asking for Jesus to come to you. Thank you Jesus, for being faithful to show Justin your complete love and acceptance. Thankful that you shared Justin, and how it encourages us! You describe His love so beautifully. Wow!
The Lord woke me in the middle of the night last night with a burden to confess past specific sins that I am so ashamed of, which still seem to condemn me, as if God just can’t quite forgive something so bad. I believe that He woke me in order to finally put this to rest. They have been confessed before (many times), and it is lack of faith on my part that I can go on, knowing I’m forgiven. But, the consequences of my sin will bother me until I’m made whole in heaven.
Thank you so very much for loving us in this community enough to encourage (and rarely and graciously correct us), Justin! We love you 💙
I'm going to jump in here Blondie. I've held on to old sins too. Don't you think God is up there shaking his head at all of us saying " enough already!". 😄 Every single believer has a multitude of sins in their pasts. We are forgiven! Those old sins have been thrown in the fire and incinerated long, long ago. I know you know this and I'm glad God woke you up to tell you this once again. 🤗
Thank you my Jessie. You’re precious. Love you 💕
Oh, precious Blondie sin shall not have any dominion over you anymore. You’re washed clean by the blood of Christ.
the battle ground of our walk in Christ is our mind, and that “accuser of the brethren” ( lucifer)
is constantly going before the throne, bringing up our past sins.
When he is standing there, God would have to look past Jesus to see him and God doesn’t move.
He doesn’t look around his precious son the perfect sacrifice to listen to the accuser of the brethren. I’m haunted by my past sins as well, but I begin to worship, I turn on Pandora, put on my praise and worship music, and I just praise God through the condemnation, which is exactly what we will do when we get to heaven.
we will be so overcome just like in Justin‘s dream of the love in the how much he cares for us, and we will fall on our faces with the 24 elders and we will worship the only one worthy of our worship.
be encouraged dear sister
Hallelujah and Amen! Speak it Glee!!
How beautifully said, Glee. Thank you so much. Love you!
Hi Blondie my BSF friend: please know that even if you still feel consequences from this sin that you have confessed; I’m always reminded of Corey den Boom who said: God had buried our sins in the deepest sea and put up a no fishing sign and remembers them no more. Just my little 2 cents to share. Love 💕 you Sister. Be blessed and stay well. 🙏❤️
Thank you dear Gladys for sharing 😘. Love you too
I know how you feel Blondie. I truly do. My past haunts me. Almost everyday I'm reminded of something I need to repent for. I do it and then keep on keeping on, and praying the Holy Spirit keeps cleaning house. Thank you hon for being who you are. A wonderful, loving, kind, and very generous child of our Father. Love you Blindie!!🙏💗🌻
Love you, sweet Verna. You’re such a gift to our community. Don’t let that mean ole loser taunt you! And I’ll take the same advice. Sweet dreams 💤🌷
Love you back Blondie. You have a great and blessed of the Lord day! God is good!! Just so you know, to me, y'all are the blessing. Praise Father for all He does in all our lives! I have joy, joy, joy, down in my heart. Praise God!!
I’m singing with you this morning, Verna!
Sing loud, no one wants to hear me singing. Lol 😖
Love you too my dear friend 😊. I know what you are talking about, from what you described. The enemy keeps coming against us with accusation and condemnation. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. He may convict our hearts, which is different than accusation and condemnation. Everybody, I think, has “those sins” they are so ashamed of from their past. That make them look something else than who they really are. We all hate to even look back at those times. I sure understand how it makes you feel. But not who you are, not who we are. So glad He sets us free. So glad for your long and faithful friendship here 😊. Sundays blessing my friend.
Satan is the accuser of the Brethren (believers) so we must stay armed for battle. 🙏
Amen Justin. Praise God!! Love you Brother Justin!!
Thank you Justin. My friend who is in a memory care facility used to tell me the same: “there is therefore now no condemnation…” and I’ve missed her encouragement so much. So what did the Lord do but send you to remind me of “Judy’s verse.” Wow.
Thank you for sharing your heart and your wise words, once again. Blessings to you, Melanie, and your kids, including your little spitfire girlie💕🤣
Of course my friend and always so great to see you. We are blessed. I interviewed with the state today for work and I think it went well. God bless and keep you and yours as well.
Praying for the Lord’s perfect will regarding your work! 🙏
Oh precious Justin, thank you so much for sharing with us that intimacy. It means so much to all of us. ❤️🙏⬆️
So happy to. I feel like I am on some kind of euphoria ever since it happened. I keep feeling that embrace and all of those things we are waiting so faithfully to fully understand. Praying you have a blessed Sunday.
"euphoria".. that's exactly the word I thought of when I was reading about your hug with Jesus.. even typing the words gives me shivers... man I can't wait!!
Thank you for sharing😊
You bet sister 😊. I’m thinking about the next hug 😎
Hallelujah and Amen, Glee !! So beautiful.
Oh Justin, that was soooo beautiful! Jesus truly loves you, that's so clear! I also think though that part of him showing himself to you in this way was meant for all our benefit also. WE all need to hear these stories to keep us lifted up and keeping our faith strong. I really needed your story this morning. Thank you dear Justin! My emotions were completely shut off this past week because I was struggling with how I was feeling. For me, I think its a coping mechanism until Im able to fully process things. It truly feels like the enemy is trying to kill my son and as though God is just going to allow this to happen. I thought that God had opened up a door toward saving him and then last minute it was slammed shut. Last minute the insurance company decided not to allow him to get treatment. The thought that keeps circling my brain this morning is that faith isn't real if we're just believers when things are easy and go our way and we're meant to keep our faith strong no matter the situation we're in. My initial reaction is to think " I knew God didn't really care about me or my family". But then I put my destructive thinking behind me and choose faith. I choose Jesus....no matter what happens next. Satan...get the hell away from me and my family. I'm going to trust God. May God bless all of you pouring your hearts out to our father today. 🌷
My sweet Jessie. I'm so sorry that this keeps happening to you. I am praying for y'all. I love you my sweet Sister in Christ. I have faith that God has a perfect plan for your son and that if we all just keep praying for y'all to recieve His wisdom, it will come. Hon, God is good, and He would never hurt you or your son. My heart says that that place is the wrong place. God's will be done.
Maranatha!!
Love that awesome encouragement
Hey Justin, me too. I needed this time with y'all so much today. God is so good.
Thank you Father, for all these folks you brought into my life. I'm so grateful Father, and I love each one of them. You are an awesome God and You heal me . I'm so excited Father to worship at your feet, and serve you with all my heart. In Jesus beloved and holy name I pray, AMEN!!
He is so amazing. As I was holding on to Him, I was just saying “dad, dad, dad” over and over. Such a sense of being my Father as I was holding into Him. ☺️
Ohhh, so beautiful!
🤗
Hello my friend, thank you for the nice share, and your trials you have been struggling with. That is a great struggle you are talking about. Anything to do with our family is always hitting us in a sensitive spot. I believe you are right, that this was meant to encourage everybody here and that I share this with around my area. I am so sorry that the insurance company chose this perhaps pushing back against them may work. One of our challenges is the faith and perseverance can’t really be fully developed without adverse circumstances. I will be praying for you and your son as you wrestle with that situation God bless you and bring your favor as you seek care for him. I know for a fact that he is holding you close every step of the way.
"One of our challenges is the faith and perseverance can’t really be fully developed without adverse circumstances"
Yes...bullseye. 🎯
We are pushing back with the insurance. And we'll continue to fight this. I guess God's trying to mold me into a warrior woman instead of a doormat. 🙄 And yes, I know his presence is there even in those moments I can't feel him. I'll keep reminding myself. Love to your family Justin!
Thanks Jessie and please know you are a great inspiration to me as well. Watching you grapple and overcome the world and the enemy in His power. Onward to victory!
Awe..love this! Thanks! Onward to victory!! 🤲
Yes Jessie God will make a way when there seems to be no way ( insurance for your son). God fights our battles and I can’t wait to see how God will provide for you to meet those needs. Keep us updated! God will be Glorified and you will be blessed and strengthen in Him! 😘
Thank you dear Gladys! 🤗
Amen 🙏 Jessie. In the authority of Jesus’s Name I agree in prayer with you that Satan be rebuked and his hands off of you and your son; y’all are property of the Lord Jesus Christ and no weapon against you will prosper. Satan is a liar .cheater and deceiver and his days and times are short. I get mad at him too and rebuke him out of my life. My body and my apartment. So stay the course and be strong; Satan can not have us or our children. You are the head and not the tail; above and not beneath. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Enjoy your week and keep the Armor of Christ ( our heavenly clothes) on. Love 💕 Sister. He is coming soon.
Thank you dear Gladys! 🙏
Awesome prayer
Oh Jessie please know that you are loved and cared for and in my prayers
Thank you so very, very much Glee! ❤️
Oh Jessie. I’ve missed you but assumed you were busy. Which you probably were. So sorry for this long, long trial. I’m grateful that the Lord gave you the time to feel your feelings and then gently remind you that He is faithful. Imagine how things we don’t understand on this side of heaven will be made clear in heaven, if we even remember them.
In agreement we say “get behind me Satan!” And we trust our trustworthy King. Love you sweet pea ❤️
Amen!!
Praise the Lord, Justin. I can't imagine being so blessed. I would ask how to get to that point of intimacy, but I'm sure it is different for everyone. Besides, I'm dealing with a lot of anger right now, and doubt He would show Himself in my dreams. God bless you Justin. Love you Brother!!
Oh precious Verna,
Jesus doesn’t have any prerequisites you must complete or fill out before he wants to give you a hug, come as you are to his throne of mercy and grace climb up in his lap, lean back against him, feel him breathe as he holds you❤️🙏⬆️
Oh Glee, hon, thank you for that. 😭 Crying Happy tears. I love you!
Beautiful, dear Glee!
Love you too my friend. To answer your question, I would think I am one of the last people to be deserving of such an encounter. I have shortcomings in pretty much every department, don't feel like I've earned it or deserve it. I have so many doubts at times or feelings of unworthiness or other littany of things. It is so hard for me to understand His love most of the time, or even accept it because I feel so unworthy. But when He meets you, He peels all that stuff back because you instantly realize how incredible and completely loving and accepting of you He is. Not because of what we do, but because of who we are. We are His children. Like how I view my children - I never love them because of anything to do with their performance. I love them because they are my children. Right or wrong, always love them. It helps me understand and accept it better. I am sorry you are struggling with anger. I have been there many times and it is an island I am always trying to get off during various times of life. I can just tell you that He completely loves and accepts you for who you are and He will faithfully walk with you the whole time you are working on walking away from that burden. I have no question He would show Himself to you, in His time. The Bible says in Hebrews 1 that in the past, He spoke to us through the prophets, at many times, in various ways. But in these last days, He speaks to us through His Son. That was what this was and this promise is for you too. I am the last person you would think of as intimate or close with God on a daily basis. Many other people I know are much more disciplined/deserving. But I love Him deeply, I love His Laws, His righteousness, His goodness. He showed me this clearly, even though it is more of a head thing most of the time than a heart thing, in my everyday consciousness. You have been such an inspiration to me here and seeing your kindness and goodness and I have no question He would meet you or speak to you in His own way that would be tailored just to you. You are far more worthy, as His daughter, of Him seeing you and/or speaking to you directly. I can say this more easily now because of this. And we have that promise in Hebrews for our last days and how He speaks to us. Just wanted to encourage you to ask and keep asking until He meets you. It's helped me see how much more I want to pursue Him and being with Him. It is so worth it.
Thank you Justin. I'm trying to heal from a life time of hurt, and it is so hard. I will keep asking and listening, hoping and praying. I need Him. I love Him. I am working to be worthy. I can tell you one thing, satan doesn't like it. I feel like I'm living in a mine field. Thank you for you loving encouragement Brother. Maranatha!!
Hey girlie! Verna...feelings are just that....just feelings. I never feel "worthy" either but if God says we're worthy, then we are. PERIOD! We are daughters and sons of the King! And yes, we ARE living on a minefield and the enemy will do everything he can to discourage us and tempt us to doubt our faith. I don't have alot of anger but I do have some unresolved scars from the past that like to rear their ugly heads up when I'm feeling most vulnerable. He knows my Achilles heel are my children. He knows all our weak spots and vulnerabilities. Think of it this way, V....If he weren't attacking you, then you would know he doesn't see you as a threat. Satan is intimidated by you and me and all those those see him for the fraud he is. Just remember God's amazing love for you and kick that creep to the curb. I wanted to use a bad word here but restrained myself! 😂 Big hug here!! ❤️
Sweet Jessie, you do a heart good. I'm so grateful that you are my friend and Sister in Christ. A gift of God!! Thank you hon for the Truth you share. Y'all are always in my prayers! Love ya hon!!
❤️
Speaking the truth, and I love it
😄
Ms Verna, I know you know this, but Jesus alone did the work to make us worthy. We are to continue and grow in our relationship with Him, but our “goodness” is as filthy rags apart from Him. Believe me, sweet sister, I’m preaching to myself. You ARE already made worthy by our blessed Savior, thank God! As am I, thank God! Love you, my sister ❤️
Thank you Ms Blondie. You are so right!! satan messing with me! Thank you hon, for reminding me. I need that sometimes. God bless you hon. Maranatha!! 🙏💗🌻
Of course my friend and always remember how much of a difference you are making in all our lives here :) Maranantha too my friend.
THANK YOU for sharing Justin. I needed to read that >>> that’s the “nudge” I could use now!
You bet, I am so glad to share and that it is encouraging. It keeps doing the same for me as I go back to it. God bless you today :)
Thank you Justin for sharing that powerful and uplifting dream., I was just talking to Father yesterday about being so tired of this wicked world and sooooo ready to go home. To keep been reminded that it won't be long but that's it's at our doorsteps is so encouraging and keeps me enduring. God bless!!
You bet and I am glad it was so encouraging to so many, just as it was me. I am so glad to see how you hate wickedness and love righteousness. We will overcome this world by His power and shall always be with Him after this is over.
Amen Justin, and Praise the Lord!!
Amen! Can't wait :)
Amen !!
Wow Justin. What awesome dreams and your encounter with our Lord. He loves and knows us and wants to reveal Himself to His Children. That was an amazing and so real and unexplainable. So special as you had those confirmations with Him. Your walk with the Lord will be so much more meaningful for you as He is always with you and you will be strengthen in your faith as He will always meet your needs (new job opportunities). I led our ladies class today on John 16: The Holy Sprit and how Jesus prepared His disciples for His leaving to go to be with His Father. He was surely with you in those dreams. Very exciting! Amen. 🙏 Be blessed and thanks for sharing your heart. God is sooo Good. Have a blessed and refreshing week as you continue to see how He is working in your life. Love my Brother in Christ.
Thanks my friend. I am so blessed. And so glad to have your faithful friendship. So great you can lead your lady friends with the Bible studies. Praying God also give you a blessed and fruitful week of favor 😊.
Hi Justin, loved hearing about your dreams, face to face and Heaven! I love it when God shows up like that, so personal, so life changing. Such a very loving God. 🌺
Yes and I didn’t expect it but it sure was amazing 😊
Amen!!
Wow! No words are needed! That's the hug we all long for!
Thank you for sharing. Amazing wonderful dream about His love and that we are almost there.
Thank you Jesus ✝️
Someday, if you're comfortable - i wonder very much what He looks like.
Hello...just a side note here. I was wondering how your husband is doing. I'm going to say a prayer for him this evening. I so hope he's doing better. 🙏
Hi Jessie
My husband is home now but very weak from the icu stay. We just pray for the stability of his heart and that his hip be healed. But he is gradually getting stronger -little by little. Thank Jesus.
He went through something really severe.
He is only home because of Jesus's intervention.
Thank you so much for thinking of us with everything you're going through. Thank you for praying for us. God Bless you so much.
On this site it seems like we all spend time taking turns lifting each other up. Its blessed. Its awesome.
I pray that Jesus rains peace and healing and salvation on you and your son.
Hello
Sounds to me like Jesus still has plans for him on this earth. I'm so glad he's stable ( for now) and I pray that his stregnth and healing will keep improving little by little. That's so hard to have to go through and I'm praying for stregnth for you as well. It's so hard to see someone you love have to go through so much. It takes alot of stregnth and I pray God will give you lots of peace and calm during such a difficult time.
Yes, it truly is awesome to have each other to lift up and to take turns lifting us up. If I focused too much on my two boys ( younger with autism) and oldest ( threatening suicide and being destructive), I'd probably go completely bonkers. 🤪 I feel blessed to be able to focus on others needs, instead of just my own. It feels healing to me.
God always gives me moments of peace, even in the worst of times. I pray for that peace for you also. Thank you for your sweet and kind words. You seem like such a sincere and kind person.😊 I do believe my family all have salvation, but alot of healing still needs to be done. God , please cover Hellos husband in your powerful and healing embrace. 🙏
Hugs to you both!
❤
Every time I’ve seen Him, He’s been somewhat like what you would expect. Tall but not excessively, brown hair. It seems like I remember the experience a lot better than His physical appearance for some reason. I was thinking back about this earlier and kind of thinking about that too, trying to remember better 😊
Thank you 😊
I loved reading your dreams Justin! Absolutely beautiful...
Thank you my friend, I hope your mom and husband are progressing well. I’ve been praying for them. I hope you are also staying healthy with all your kids.
Thank you Justin for praying we are all starting to feel better and the kids remain healthy…. Enjoying a 3 day TX snow day!!!! ❄️❄️❄️
Four of us went to see the Left Behind movie yesterday. Midway through the movie the fire alarm went off. We were directed to leave the theater immediately. Quite eerie. Everyone thought it was part of the movie. Sure was hoping to see the movie for my husband’s sake, for I’m unsure of his relationship with Jesus:(
Hopefully, it will come out in dvd.
Sounds like the pranks of the enemy. What are the odds of that happening? I hope you get to see it again.
Isn’t that the truth, Justin!!!!
 that was no accident
Exactly, Justin
Dang Esther!! The enemy just doesn't want the truth to come out. Maybe it will run for more weeks in theaters ... I can't see how God would allow just a 3 day run w something so powerful. Having it out there in theaters can have such an impact for those searching for answers in this crazy unhinged world.
Esther, you can pre-order it on Amazon. I already ordered mine and will try to sneak out to the movie today. Fingers crossed.🤞
Thanks Jessie, will be ordering it.
❤️
Wow... I'm sure it will.
satan shenanigans for sure!!!
We are in Ft Worth, TX and went to see the movie yesterday afternoon. The theater was over half full and many were probably believers. There were a couple people who got up during the movie and walked out which made me think they were uncomfortable with the movie but not sure about that. We have seen all the Left Behind movies and read all the books too. My wife and I loved the movie because of the way they tied into the current events which made us think we really are close! We also loved the obvious evangelical outreach that was happening with the movie and the discussion and invitation given afterwards by Mike Huckaby. Overall I think it’s a great movie and encourage everyone to go see it and bring friends if they will come. Stay until the very end as someone may need to come to faith and we don’t want to interrupt. Most of the people in our theater stayed seated until Mike finished the invitation. My prayers are many will come to faith after seeing it and those saved will be encouraged to do everything we can to reach the unsaved until the Rapture which could come at any moment. Blessings to all of my brothers and sisters, may you be richly blessed by the Lord!!!
Saw the Rise of the Antichrist Friday. I highly recommend to treat your unsaved friends or family so you can be there to answer any questions. Can’t wait to read Pastor Jimmy’s new book and also share with unbelievers. Time is short to fulfill The Great Commission. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus. Amen🙏🏻❤️✝️
I can’t wait either Cynthia I’ve already ordered my book!!!
I finished a book yesterday that was suggested by Kari, excellent book,
“revealing revelation”
by Amir Tsafarti.
Awesome I cried through most of it. I had nothing to do that day so I didn’t get out of my recliner and I finish the book in one day, amazingly easy to understand revelation!!
Thank you Kari
I'm glad you are a fellow book weeper! It took me so long to read Heaven book because I cried through all of it. I guess I don't think a book is great unless I cry LOL
I was just so overwhelmed at times throughout the book when we would go into that period of falling down before the lamb that praises and worship was just too much .
because it means so much to me personally in my every day life and have been since I was a tiny kid, I grew up around singing my mother and father, sang all the time they sang in church as a duet,
my favorite aunt that passed away this year, played for some of the old gospel groups that are now known as the Gaither groups,
so I grew up with that.
I’ve always jokingly said I bet when I get to heaven, I find out that I’m from the tribe of Levi !!singing and worship it just kept getting to me ❤️🙏⬆️
WOW! Your story brought tears to my eyes!!! Your Aunt was a Gaither!!!!! 🎶 What a legacy of joy & praise & worship passed on generations! Definitely from tribe of Levi! 💛
Aww, what a legacy you have, Glee!
Amen!!! Hallelujah come quickly Lord Jesus!!! This is the we push against the evil one!! Time to capture souls for Jesus!! Put on the armor of God and fight for our KING!! I pray we are all filled with the Holy Spirit so we go out there with the confidence of our Lord Jesus Christ, rise up all you dry bones and let's fight for our Father in Heaven!! Show the world the love of Jesus our King! I Love you all so much and may the peace that passes all understanding lay on your hearts and minds In Jesus Mighty name 🙏 Amen!! God bless you all always
 We love you too sweet Joseph. God bless you too. And yes, let’s go out the army of God. 
Always appreciate you Glee!! Love u always
Amen Joseph!!
I went as well to the Left Behind movie yesterday. First time in a recliner chair too!! I was glad to see it wasn't exactly a copy cat of Kirk Cameron's Left Behind as it had a different spin on it. Good to also see the small theater was pretty much full. God's timing bringing this movie forth to the world.
I also saw the recent movie “Left Behind” and the one part that hurt me the most was when they said there was a huge increase in SUICIDES shortly after the Rapture.
And we know from Pastor Jimmy, some of those people who try to commit suicide in tribulation won't die. Literally zombies in real life. They will be "forced" to stay alive though the millennium too.
OH WOW Kari!!
I missed that from Pastor Jimmy. So, if they’re forced to stay alive, then there’s HOPE for them to “be saved”, right?
Yvette, Were you able to read the posts yet? Sadly, it’s just the opposite. Like Jimmy shared, those forced to stay alive are the most wicked humans left on earth. They are the worst of the worst! God won’t allow them to die…although they will try as scripture teaches— They rejected Jesus and took the mark of beast, they are doomed for eternity in lake of fire. They don’t get another chance. These unbelievers will now suffer for 1000 years under Jesus Christ Rule!! It’s Gods punishment for this group. Now for HOPE—As you read the posts you’ll see that there are probably billions of people who reject the mark and accept Jesus as their Savior, some of those new, believers will actually live through the trib!!! That’s the hope! They are now marked with salvation but had to live through the tribulation (Trib Saints). During the 1000 years, those un-resurrected believers will have babies… lots of babies! Those new children will grow up and have a choice to believe in God Almighty and Jesus Christ! Hope that makes sense💛💛
Thank you Kari so much! Yes, I read those posts and I appreciate you helping me with that topic!
Keep asking questions— I’m learning sooo much too! You’ve got a big heart for Jesus!💛
Good Morning TP Family! I love this post today. I have been trying to wrap my head around the Millennial Reign lately. It’s not something I had really studied or thought that much about. I just wanted to stay in Heaven! We saw the movie on Friday, very moving, and makes me want to do a better job of leaving information for those left behind. I have Jimmy’s Missing People books everywhere but I need to have more personal letters in case family and friends are left and come to my house. It’s so hard to imagine what it will be like, will people go to houses of those that tried to tell them about Jesus and what is coming? It’s also hard to imagine people just going back to normal life and living after so many are raptured and gone. Praying you all have a great Sunday!💕
Hi Mel have you read the book Heaven by Randy Alcorn? All the pastors here highly recommend and constantly quote from his book. It will really help you wrap around the Millennial reign, and New Earth....and beyond! It's honestly one of the most fascinating books I've ever read.... and keep re-reading. I agree with you, I started writing personal notes in all my book to anyone left behind. Those books will be life-savers!
I want to get that one since so many of you have raves about it! Been praying for you Sister! 💕
Run buy it today!! 😉
Good morning tippers, my question is this, during the millenial reign there will be tribulation survivors who have not made Jesus Lord yet, so during this time will they be personally asked by Jesus if they are going to make him Lord? Will glorified believers be evangelizing in this almost paradise type earth or will the world wide presence of Jesus and the light of God be so intense that when they convert everyone will know? Next thought would be do these millenial converts ever get a glorified body after the thousand year reign?
My understanding is that unbelievers who make it through the tribulation alive will be thrown into the lake of fire when Jesus separates the sheep from the goats. Your question had me wondering though so, I did some searching and found this: https://www.gotquestions.org/Jesus-as-judge.html
Yeah thanks Bruce, I know about sheep/goat time of separation. My thoughts are more on the tribulation survivors that do repent and get the "revelation" if you will. No pun intended. Lol
Jimmy shares, "the Millennial Kingdom will be populated by resurrected believers who were raptured, and return to the earth with Jesus. It will also be populated by un-resurrected believers who survive the Great Tribulation, of which there will be a great multitude (Revelation 7:9, 14). Gradually, these un-resurrected believers will have babies, who have babies, who have babies—some of whom become unbelievers, further populating the Millennial Kingdom with people who will ultimately rebel against Christ (Revelation 20:7-9)." Plus.... all the unbelievers who are forced to live for 1000 years under Christ's Iron Rod (we rule with him too).
That's a great question Chris C .... I agree with Bruce D that any "unbeliever" who lives through the tribulation that's it for them. They don't have anymore choices.They will be thrown in the lake of fire at the end of the 1000 years. Did you know some people won't be allowed to die during the trib even if they try (real life zombies). There will also be un-resurrected "believers" who will be alive and having babies. They survived the trib .... they will receive their new, resurrected bodies at the end of the end. You're correct. Here's 3 great older posts from Jimmy that will help... https://endtimes.substack.com/p/the-millennium-part-2 and https://endtimes.substack.com/p/10-reasons-to-believe-in-a-pre-tribulation-ce5 and Iron Rod - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/blessed-are-the-dead
Also, you might really love the book Heaven by Randy Alcorn! He talks about the 1000 years!
Thank you Pastor Evans for this article. I LOVE seeing everything in sequence order! ✨
during the 1000 year reign the lion lies down with the lamb ... children play with scorpions etc. I’ve never heard that the people we are to “rule” over wanted to kill us and we’re still quite rebellious towards Jesus.
We aren’t, rather the natural born people living during the millennium period. I am not sure that it is the entire world in complete opposition to Him. To my way of understanding, there is a mix of people, some believing and some not. It does talk about Him ruling that period of time very strictly and we administer under Him in varied roles. At this point, the saints have been resurrected and glorified/purified and we would be incapable of sin at that point.
Justin, do you think those that are raptured due only to them being under the age of accountability will be incapable of sin? They never made the decision for themselves, and it’s always been my understanding that God doesn’t force belief in him on anybody. And without belief in Him, there is no forgiveness of sins. I guess I always thought part of the rebellion would be those under the age of accountability, (including all of those murdered by abortion, etc. that never made a personal commitment to Him. Thoughts?
God has already said anyone who passes into heaven no longer has a sin nature. So children and babies will be incorruptible just like us!
I think I understand the question but bear with me if I don't quite make the right connection. I believe that when we cross to the other side, whether by death or rapture, we as believers will be purified and our sin nature removed by God. Whether we are in heaven or on earth afterwards. When it comes to the age of accountability, this seems like its own category that God deals with on a little bit different level than those that lived a life and made their choices. It is important to remember that we are all born with a sin nature, nobody can escape that, from the moment of conception. But He deals differently with those that never got to make a choice. Also I believe, like He deals differently with those that never got to hear the gospel. Somehow, in His omnipotence, everybody in that scenario will get to choose, I believe. Nobody will ever be able to look back and think He was unjust or unfair in any manner. Coming back to the question, we only live once, then the judgment. He may have far more things we can't understand now/here for judging, especially those under the age of accountability. From what I can see in scripture, He was particularly fond of children. It has always been my view that the rapture would take most/all of the children in this category, regardless of their parents position. It's not their fault how their parents chose. Only exception I can imagine are those rare examples of children that just seemed to be evil right from the start. I can think of two in my life I know of that just seemed evil bent from the time they were little. To reiterate, once we cross the great barrier, whether by death or rapture, we as believers are made like Him. I think they will too, unless there are some who He judges otherwise. During the millennium, there are the natural born who have never crossed the threshold to eternity and their destiny will be much like what we experience today - some to life, some to everlasting contempt. For the youngsters under the age of accountability, they may much more naturally accept Him and be justified by Him for such. God does provide free will, as you noted and won't force Himself on anyone. But people, and under-the-age-of-accountability may have different circumstances for choosing than we know or understand as we experience life now. I feel like I am missing some part of the question, so please let me know :)
No that was good. I think I made the question more complex than it needed to be. Simple= 2 year old gets raptured. Has to have glorified body to be in Heaven. Probably instantly around 30 years old as many who have died and returned have said this is what they saw. So just wanted to know if you thought that once you are in heaven, with a glorified body, you are incapable of sinning for eternity (even though they were never born-again). Or do they have free will to do what they want until the thousand years is up. And if at that point they didn’t want to follow Christ, they would be judged then at the White Throne judgement. Ha ha, that probably still got too long!!
Absolutely not. God chooses to change those who go to heaven, just like we will be changed 'in the twinkling of an eye' so those babies and children can't be in heaven without that change. They are under the 'age of accountability' which means they won't be accountable at any point! Only the people who are saved during the tribulaion will go to Heaven after us. Pas Jimmy said in this article that the ones left after He returns with us remain under His rule until the Great White Throne Judgement.
Thanks, I think I do understand a little bit better. I see the two-year-old crossing the same divide that we do to the other side. I don’t think they get another opportunity later, the Bible says we live once and then the judgment. And there seems to be a preview of that with the current heaven/hell set up. People are either in one spot or another now, after dying. It is also possible that the two-year-old or aborted babies, for example, don’t need to choose in the same way that we do. They may just be a lot closer to begin with. I don’t know for sure. But I do think that most little ones and aborted ones will go right back to His presence and perhaps in a more grown up state than their earthly body never got, like you said. I just don’t think they live/choose a second time they never have to make conscious decisions the way that we do. God may have some other mystery way of dealing with that, which we have no understanding of. my thoughts anyways. God bless.
I’ve never heard that either Kellie. What is the point of the 1,000 year reign if people don’t have the opportunity to be saved. Millions will be born, I just can’t believe that people can’t be saved or have the opportunity to choose to follow Christ, it goes against everything I’ve understood this far.
Hi Kellie, I agree with Justin... during the 1000 year Millennial Rule, we reign with Jesus! We rule the "wicked" that have now been forced to live under our rule. They will hate us (how could they not) but remember, we are resurrected, we are now the wife of Jesus, nothing can ever harm us. Those of us (all resurrected believers) will not be rebellious, however, there will be un-resurrected believers who will have babies during those 1000 years, and those children will grow up and have to make the same decision as their believing parents. It's honestly mind-blowing! Here's a another great post by Jimmy Evans that will help too -- https://endtimes.substack.com/p/the-millennium-part-2 and... ** https://endtimes.substack.com/p/10-reasons-to-believe-in-a-pre-tribulation-ce5
Jimmy shares, "And for those unbelievers who endure the Tribulation, the despair has only just begun. For the next thousand years, they will then have to live under the iron rod rule of Jesus and His Bride, the Church (Revelation 20). They will hate Jesus. They will hate His followers. But they will be forced to comply with His every command—and ours, too. This will be their worst judgment." post - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/blessed-are-the-dead
and.... don't forget the 1000 years will also include un-resurrected believers... who will have babies! Jimmy shares, the Millennial Kingdom will be populated by resurrected believers who were raptured, and return to the earth with Jesus. It will also be populated by un-resurrected believers who survive the Great Tribulation, of which there will be a great multitude (Revelation 7:9, 14). Gradually, these un-resurrected believers will have babies, who have babies, who have babies—some of whom become unbelievers, further populating the Millennial Kingdom with people who will ultimately rebel against Christ (Revelation 20:7-9).
Jimmy, I really appreciated the summation. It keeps us focused that He in in full control, and that we must remain on target…for souls are at stake for eternity! (Prov 11:30)
First, thank you Steve and all those who are praying for my uncle and myself. I truly appreciate it.
Steve has gone above and beyond with multiple phone calls and text messages. Email too. He walked with me this me this entire weekend and it was a scary one.
So grateful I had Steve to lean on. God used His saint in an amazing way. I know he will be blessed for his sacrifice of time and compassion.
I’ve only known Steve as a comment on TP. I enjoy reading what he shares and appreciate his humor. Being able to talk live, pray together, cry with him, be transparent, and experience his patience and compassion has produced a connection so much deeper than we shared before.
I told him the easiest thing I can do for other Christians in trials and needs is say “I am praying for you”. Takes as long as it takes to type that message and however long it takes to say that pray.
Most of us don’t know each other beyond our screen names and comments in this community. Still, I see some real relationships that have developed. It’s beautiful.
Even more special are those who have found a way to connect with other Fellow TP’ers outside the site. Maybe it’s thru email, cell phones or even in person meetings for coffee since they live geographically close. Real fellowship and encouragement can take place in these interactions that go deeper than comments on a website.
I realize there is risk sharing personal contact information on any site of people who have never met in person. Even our community. Evil lurks in shadows everywhere. Wisdom and discernment is definitely needed.
I have been on a long journey these past 3 years. One one hand, I have experienced incredible growth in my knowledge of my Bible and prophecy. I’ve seen God do some amazing things.
I’ve also experienced the sudden death of my sister and 3 years of care taking that I never asked for but it was put in front of me. I have a complete respect for those who do this as their job. And for those who do it out of love for family.
Nursing homes are full of our elderly who need full time care. Without judging those decisions, I wonder how many could have stayed in their own homes or with loved ones and lived out their remaining days with more dignity, less loneliness and more comfort and peace??? I realize it’s not always possible. Just my thoughts.
I want to share my email for anyone who wants to get to know me, pray with me, or share your burdens. I love people. My heart goes out to those hurting, strugglingly, lonely, scared, or confused. Even better to share in a victory or answered prayer. I have and do go thru all of those feelings. Fellowship with believers is a gift from God.
Your welcome to reach out however you want. No expectations on my end. No judgement for those who want to keep their privacy limited to posts on here. I hope to add a deeper connection between us as we live in these last days, however long God has planned for each of us.
Love in Christ to all! May God bless you with His peace and comfort no matter the circumstances or how evil things get around us. God is faithful and trustworthy. He will bring us home at the perfect time.
Amartintx@aol.com.
Art, you are so precious to all of us here on the TP!! I got hit with the nasty flu bug but so happy to hear you're feeling encouraged. We pray for your strength today! I agree... this is a very special place to be. I think we need to plan a TX mini reunion! Love you!
Saw Left Behind in the theater yesterday. Kevin Sorbo did an amazing job with it, as did all the actors. Loved it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
