There is a question that is in my mind. I am not sure of the answer. It has to do with rapture. I have listened to you guys deal with the book of Revelations, in such a knowing inspiring manner. You may not have all the answers, but at least you have found the light switch.
Not so with me. I am completely in the dark... Other than to know that it speaks of a time in the future. It tells a story of incredible destruction but ends in beauty and Glory.
So anyway ... At one point I asked God about the book of Revelations. I asked to be enlighten, if there was anything, that I would need to understand. I will not go into detail, but that night I had a dream of Rapture. It was incredible beyond description! I can not wait to feel that closest to God again.
OK, So here are my questions.
(1)Do you believe that there is no need for me to have knowledge of what will have no bearing on my being? I will be raptured before any persecution.
(2)But the Bible speaks of others??? They will suffer persecution to the point of being be-headed for their Christian beliefs. Do you think these are the Christians who will have to run back to fill their lamps? Are these the Christians who do not believe that the World will be destroyed? Therefore, they are not ready and waiting to be raptured?
I have a desire to warn others of this danger but it is met with criticism. I most accept a good part of the blame. I do not have the art of sugar-coating hard Truth.
Now I am to the point of believing that this final time could be put to better use by myself and maybe many more. The Spirit is calling me to get still closer to God. I believe we need to spend more and more time, in prayer and meditation upon his Word.
So my main question is...
How should we be spending our time?
