Bro. Walter:
> 	From these Scriptures it cannot be denied that this
period is peculiarly the time when God's wrath and judgment
fall upon the earth. 

Me:
My point EXACTLY!  The "tribulation" or "testing" comes
BEFORE the outpouring of the Wrath.  

That is why it is SO IMPORTANT that the saints get READY
now.  The day of our vistitation is upon us.  It is in this
day that will will either SHINE forth for the Lord or FALL
AWAY.  

Don't think that the "trials" will be someone standing over
you with an ax saying "Deny Jesus and live, either."

Matthew 24:12
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall
wax cold. 

The GREAT TRIBULATION is the lure of sin as well as
persecution.  Satan will pull out all the stops.  You will
be tried at work, at school, in church, when you are asleep
and when you are awake.

You will be given EVERY reason to turn from God and only
one to remain: Your undying love for HIM!

This means we HAVE to get busy and PREPARE.  In my short
walk with the Lord I have found that when things are going
well you HAD BETTER pray up and fast up for the deep dark
vallley ahead.  This is what the Lord has given me to say
"He's coming!"  I add "WE had better be ready."

It is what we do this day that we will be judged for.  Just
like the Israelites when Jesus was with them.  They were
not destroyed THEN but they were JUDGED then.  It was the
SENTENCE that was carried out when the walls fell.

Think on this wise: if I am wrong you gain much and if I am
right you gain much.  Judge accordingly.

Pastor Dan:
 It is so sad that so many are waiting for Jesus to come.

Me:
I agree 100%!  It is time to start PREPARING for Jesus to
come!

Luke 18:8
I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless
when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the
earth?
