If Christ's sheep are keeping up with current events by watching CNN, it has become painfully obvious that earth and its human cultures are collapsing all around us: every day reports worsen with more lives lost to wars, rumors of wars, civil unrest throughout the nations, planes-helicopters-airliners-cars and train crashes overlapping with such frequency as we've never seen, senseless individual killings-rapes-kidnappings. Even contradictions are becoming blatant though surely unintended: i.e. CNN tickler said markets still rising at the end of this past week yet a market window above showed dramatic losses!
A question was posed a few days ago: "For 2000 years Christians have been saying we are living in the last days ever since Jesus was here. Is the world coming to an end or will we have to listen to this for another 2000 years?"
I would be amazed if we had two more years. Certainly, there will not be another 2000 years; were there to be another 2000, then the Bible is rendered a lie. Misunderstanding is found in God's terminology and the way it is often taught. Indeed, the last days began with the Apostles after Jesus ascended; for, in fact, earth already had lived out over 66.6% of its intended 6000 years; thus, earth at that time was on its downward slide with less than a third of its life left and already ailing. Doesn't that sound much like how we human bodies age? Consistently over looked is the fact that the last church age is referred to as the "end of days" or "end days" and will be the shortest of the previous six church ages. Sardis was the shortest of those first six eras at 46 years and we are 18 years into the seventh and final age of Laodicea.
The end days of Laodicea cannot be equal to or exceed the Sardis years at the risk of not only rendering God a liar but Christ as well; for Jesus stated in both Sardis and Philadelphia that He would be coming soon. However, in the Laodicea age, He said He "comes quickly," cutting short these horrific years for the sake of His elect. Indeed, as we watch CNN news daily, we are seeing the "terrors of these end days." Neither earth nor mankind can endure much more, and it is evident that earth can no longer support life. She is depleted, falling apart, and "reeling to and fro like a drunkard."
Stand strong and obedient, little sheep, and do not fall back into the world because it seems easier and/or safer. To fall back is to accept a sentence of "twice dead." God's Word has yet to fail and it will not, thus pay heed to the warnings I, rather not I but the Lord gives you. Remember two of God's edicts: 1. "Though a thousand fall to one side and ten thousand to your other, ye shall not fear;" and, 2. "Know that I have spared your beloved dead from the terrors of these end days." Therefore, rejoice when a loved one dies a first death and pray that they are in the first resurrection: they are instantly out of the turmoil and chaos of this world until Jesus calls their name to join Him in the clouds.
New scams are hitting the news left and right. Please keep in mind, dear sheep, cons and scam artists are coming out of the woodwork like cockroaches. Don't buy anything from door-to-door sales people; don't buy over the phone from telemarketers or other sales pitchers; never give personal information over the phone. The collapsing economy is bringing out the worst of the worst cons with old schemes being renewed and new ones added to the mix: their only goal is to take what little you might have with nothing in return, not even a magazine.
Be aware that none of these incidents reported are happening one at a time in one place or another; yet, each occur in "diverse places," most of which are unusual to the specific areas. Even earthquakes are coming in swarms now instead of one every 35 seconds, such as the 6 that hit in the Gulf of California this past week. If you take all the "Extra Oil" updates to read them in one sitting, insight is gained to what is simultaneously happening globally on any given day or week. God's signs and His first six vials have been escalating in severity at an astounding rate since 1991: the past twelve months exceeds anything anyone has ever seen or recorded historically.
Remember not to get caught up in lies circulating about that glorious day of Christ's return, for which we eagerly await— "Christ will return 21 May 2010" as determined by a professed Christian, and/or "The world will end 21 December 2012" as determined by the ancient Mayan calendar. NEITHER DATE IS VALID.
New reports on a Swine Flu vaccine in the works: some people are sensitive to vaccines, such rendering them temporarily very ill as well as paralyzed for up to 8 months followed by many more months of rehab; albeit, paralysis might be permanent. CAUTION: not all people benefit from vaccines; and, since this vaccine has just been created, there will not be enough known about it before it is administered to "at risk" people: children, pregnant women, and people with diseases. I have accepted a flu vaccine one time in my life and, unfortunately, it made me very ill. I've never had a vaccine since and neither have I caught any flu during the annual seasons. Christ's sheep do not need those vaccines, for God is our protector: "My people will walk among them and be not touched."
It feels as though our Lord's hand is now on our doorknob and He is about to turn it to walk through our skies. Keep your eyes on the clouds! Especially watch during the final Hebrew harvest of October and its festival thereafter. It could be this year or next, for I feel earth can't survive much longer. Her death has been agonizing and long, her Sabbath rest long overdue.
Share the virgins' "Extra Oil" reports with everyone you know, everyone that wants God's truth about current events in their lives, in prophecy and want only God's Truth. Earth's body is in turmoil and her people in chaos. The Kingdom is near. And, don't forget—
HEAVEN'S TWO KEYS: "Those who have the faith of and in Jesus, AND obey God's Commandments." Exodus c.20 and Deuteronomy c.5 confirm compliance with Jehovah's perpetual Laws; "which stand forever and ever, even in the new earth and new heavens." Many believe they comply but should understand His 4th precept. It is this Statute-of-Life the majority violates: THE Seal of God and Jesus. To avoid this precept puts a person straddling the fence, a fatal place to be when Christ arrives. Do you comply?

NEW REVIEW: "The Last Speaker of His Truth" ~~ Debby Carlson 05/25/09
"BIND UP THE TESTIMONY, SEAL THE LAW" – 5-Stars, 1998 Revelation interpreted, published 2003, arranged/paraphrased by Bonita M Quesinberry, 25 May 2009 Review by Debby Sorenson-Carlson, Texas, author/poet, nursing home dietician & chef; wife, mother, grandmother. http://allpoetry.com/Debbysmiles
[Bonita is] speaker of the house; the one God anointed to spread the truth, also the clear bearer of news that many will not want to hear or believe but all will believe soon. [She is] His truth, as she is incapable of lying. Actually, she may be the last speaker of His absolute truth before His coming. [Bonita is] part of the last seal, created for just this purpose, just as she was placed in my life so that I could see with my heart all I was to understand. I do believe Christ is standing in the door and in the cool of an October evening (book's detail and my soul's belief), He will walk through and we will pass from this old earthly world to His eternal life.
As far as the latter parts of the book are concerned, they are happening now [2009]. One would have to be blind not to see that everything written in "Bind Up. . ." was divinely inspired, as there is no way anyone could have predicted what was going to happen in the detail it was written in 1998. I would never have dreamed this world would exist in the [current] mess it is in.
