Rev. Blume:
 I fear no future hardships, for if I am depending upon the
grace of God for today, and am victorious, when sin
increases and grace increases more in the future I will be
victorious for the very same reasons I am now.

Me:
MAJOR AMEN!!!!  Even if we must endure the Great
Tribulation God will not forsake His kids!!  The Israelites
were completly spared the plagues of the Egyptains AND were
given the strength to maintain the tally of bricks (plague
of Pharoah).  Don't worry at ANY rate!  Stay strong in the
Lord.
 
Rev. Blume:
 BTW, if the Anti-Christ is indeed Anti"CHRIST", what will
there be of Christ in this world if the Church is gone?????

Me:
Anti- means to oppose by USURPATION or by "stealing the
throne or place of.  The Son of Perdition, or the man
possesed by the spirit of Anti-christ will be opposed
Christ by claiming the "position."

Rev. Blume:
 I'm afraid that there are too many Apostolics out there
just a waitin and not preparing for what is to come. 

Me:
Yep!
 
Rev. Blume:
 And that is dangerous... What happened?  The pretribbers
were imprisoned and slaughtered.  

Me:
And went to Heaven.

Rev. Blume:
The postribbers kept the church going!!

Me:
See why we both STRESS salvation!  For the saved this is a
win-win situation.
 
Rev. Blume:
 I can't picture us even getting out of here until the heat
really gets turned up on earth. 

Me:
Niether can I.  We don't have to go through the Great
Tribulation to really have the heat turned up though!

Rev. Blume:
I just don't see how we can go along happy and contented
with our salvation, Knowing the truth and Ignoring the
future. That scares me. 

Me:
It should!

Rev. Blume:
I guess I can always hope that I'm wrong and we'll be outta
here tomorrow, but I don't see that happenin. 

Me:
It aint gonna happen like that.  There is going to be a
trial by fire for the Body of Christ.  My position is that
this is different from the "outpouring" of God's wrath upon
the unbelievers but it won't be a picnic either!  To God go
ALL the Glory!!

Rev. Blume: 
"But we are not supposed to go trhough tribulation," some
will say.  Huh!  

Me:
Not I!
