God's Next Move Coming Soon

What is soon to come for mankind?
Are you ready for what is coming next?
What can we expect as the end nears? No not the end of the World, but the end of the Gentile dispensation before God turns back to the Jews. What has God got in store for us in these last days?
Paul the Apostle gives us a good picture of the things that are to take place as follows:
Romans 11:25-26: “Blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in, and so all Israel shall be saved.

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12  Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. Remember you not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now you know what withholds that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now permits will do so, until he is taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked one will be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Following are important concepts that Paul stated and are needful to be given your earnest attention as follows in order to understand coming events.

  1. The day of Christ is at hand.
  2. There shall come a falling away.
  3. The mystery of iniquity.
  4. The wicked one being revealed
  5. The Spirit of His mouth.
  6. The brightness of His Coming
  7. Failing to receive the love of the truth
  8. Strong delusion causing the belief of false doctrines.

Yes, the day of Christ is at hand, that day when He returns to catch away those who have been faithful to His Word, but before that even takes place there will be a falling away first. Some believe that this indicates a falling away from Christ and the Gospel of salvation in Jesus’ name, but this is not the falling away that will occur. This falling away will be from the Churches that have not told the people the truth of God’s Word and when the people realize the error of those Bible Teachers, they will turn away from the false teachers which they have been following.

God’s people have received and accepted false doctrines because they have received a strong delusion about those lies they have been taught were the truth when they were not. This is the mystery of iniquity that the devil has imposed upon the Church of God and will continue until the truth of God’s Word reveals this to His people. Even before His return for true believers it will be the Spirit of His mouth, which is confirmation of the truth of the Word bringing forth the restoration of the truth to the end time church.

Those who continue to refuse the truth of God’s Word even after the attempted restoration by God’s end time Messenger and fail to receive the love of the truth could be damned because of their stiffed necks rather than to repent and believe the truth.

The following is the sequence of events that will take place.

  1. God’s end time Messenger operating in the spirit of Elijah the Prophet will preach the truth as God has revealed to him.
  2. God will vindicate this Messenger’s ministry by a supernatural sign which the people have not believed could happen. Some will even attribute this sign to the devil’s doing and damn themselves by their blasphemies.
  3. A supernatural ministry like none before will breakout for a short time to prepare the people for the return of Christ. During this ministry the traditional churches will close down for a lack of attendance and their organizations will crumble and fall.
  4. At God’s given time, Christ will return and carry away those who have made themselves ready to be received.
  5. Those people who are left behind, both believers and unbelievers will seek God sent teachers and preachers who have accepted the messages published by God’s Messenger.
  6. During the next one thousand years those who will be taken by Christ will spend a millennium in Heaven with Christ and those left behind on Earth will seeks God’s mercy and grace under a ministry not controlled by satan, for he will be restrained for the thousand year period unable to deceive the people any more.
  7. After the Millennium is over, God sends two Prophets to the Jews preaching the Gospel of Christ. Satan then will be loosed for a short time to go against the Nation of Israel.
  8. After a time of Great Tribulations on the Earth, the end will come followed by the Great White Throne Judgment and time will be no more.

This is what the Bible teaches. All of those books and movies about the antichrist being a certain man and the tribulation that those who are left behind will go through are nothing more than fables devised by man because of their own private interpretation of scripture.

God sent Brother William Branham to the people for the purpose of laying a foundation for the future ministry that was to take place before the return of Christ. During his sermon on the opening of the “Seventh Seal” Brother Branham was given a glance of what was to come, but he didn’t relate the details to the people for fear that many would leave him. He stated many times that God would send a man with the spirit of Elijah on him and this person would restore the faith of the people back to the faith and understanding of His Word that the Apostles held to. Brother Branham knew this would come to pass and knew that he was not that person. This has come to pass just as our Brother prophesied that it would and now it is God’s will that His people turn back to the truth contained in the scriptures and prepare themselves for what is to come.

Hear again the message to the Church of Laodicea which represents this last Gentile Church Age who Jesus was speaking to:

“Because you say, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and know not that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that you may be rich; and white raiment, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness does not appear; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any person hears my voice, and open the door, I will come in to them, and will sup with him, and they with me. To them that overcome will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and have sat down with my Father in his Throne.”

May those who have eyes to see and ears to hear and hearts to understand, believe the written Word of God and repent as the time grows near. When the Son of man returns, will He find faith on the Earth?

What will your answer be? Have you held to and preserved His Word?
