JESUS IS COMING!
Over the last decade, many end-time scholars have predicted the imminent rapture of the church. They firmly believed that the rapture would occur on this day and time or that, and let people know that Jesus would come immediately. They were wrong.
Surprised by their inaccurate assessment, I asked Jesus where they were off. He told me that the reason is that He doesn’t even know when the rapture will happen. He told me that the day of rapture is determined by the fulfillment of complex prophecies and very importantly, the behavior of man-kind. In modern business terms it is based on a series of uncontrollable variables.
The scriptures they based their pronouncements were not incorrect, nor were the connection they made to current events that instigated their predictions. All of the prophetic promises are fulfilled.
One prophecy that has been dramatically fulfilled, is that Damascus will be laid waste. It certainly has been. I have Bible student friends who have stated that Jesus will not return until GOD has made the evil one and all of JESUS’s enemies his footstool. They base their beliefs primarily on two scriptures: Psalm 110:1-2 and 1Corinthians 15:25.
From King David a Prophet and a God described: “Man after My Own heart!:
”The Lord (God) says to my Lord (the Messiah), Sit at My right hand, until I make Your adversaries Your footstool.”
From the Apostle Paul appointed by God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit to be the teacher to all non-Jewish people.
“For; Jesus must be King and reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.”
Jesus did both of those things when He rose from the dead and became the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
So what is the holdup? Every generation, including the first, since Jesus ascended to heaven, has believed that they would be the one to be raptured. Why hasn’t Jesus come yet?
To understand this, one must understand the differences between God’s time and our time. Earth time does not exist. It is merely an estimation based on a presumption that a second is a second. Seconds are man-made measuring devices and nothing more; they have no basis in fact. That is why Einstein’s theory that energy equals mass times the speed of light squared (E=MC2)is flawed. It is only accurate in the sense of relativity.
God does not use time. God does not have time. Time is irrelevant to God. Think about this revelation to the wisest man who ever or will ever live, Solomon, from the Holy Spirit:
”That which is now already has been, and that which is to be already has been, and God seeks that which has passed!” (Ecclesiastes 3:15)
Meaning: The past, the present, and the future are all the same. No time actually exists, but this present moment.
That is why the expression: “In God’s Time” is so foolish!
God operates at speeds we can not comprehend and thinks in ways that are beyond the capacity of our limited minds to understand.
Many wrongheaded atheists claim to base their unbelief on the absurdity of the concept that God created everything in six human days. Even more wrongheaded teachers of “believers” stand on the theory that God actually created the earth in six earth days. Many “believers” believe that God created everything literally in six man designated days.
What is absurd is for us to try to measure God’s time.
To God, a day could be a trillion human years. We have no way to know. We do have an example of God’s time that Jesus exhibited in an incident during a storm on the sea of Galilee:
But Jesus said to them; It is I; be not afraid! Then they were quite willing and glad for Him to come into the boat. And now the boat went at once to the land they had steered toward. [And immediately they reached the shore toward which they had been slowly making their way.] (John 6:20-21)
More than once, Jesus used molecular transformation that caused Him or things to move at the speed of thought. Once a crowd of outraged Jews tried to throw Jesus off of a high cliff. He vanished right in front of their eyes.
God Jesus, God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit move immediately, and their thoughts are far above the most genius of us all.
Read this declaration from God the Father and meditate on it. Keep it close to you. Use it to share with others who don’t understand the events of the Bible or think that they are smarter than God. It was spoken to the prophet Isaiah by God Himself!:
“Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have love, pity, and mercy for him, and to our God, for He will multiply to him His abundant pardon.
For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways, My ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.
For as the rain and snow come down from the heavens, and return not there again, but water the earth and make it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”(Isaiah 55:7-12)
Two crucial facts are declared in that message:
.Our thoughts are not on the level of God’s thoughts, no matter how much common sense we have or how high our I.Q’s are. It is impossible to think on the level of God whose mind is infinite with our finite brains. It is impossible for any human to “out think” God. It is quite impossible for any human to be smarter than God.
Think about this question: “How can the creation be greater than the creator?
How can the CDC, WHO, HHI doctors know more about the human body and it’s healing process than the God who created it????
I am leading up to a point. Hang with me here. You will soon understand.
As you read this, know that James, Peter, and John had just seen Jesus in His Heavenly glory, just as He looks now, walking and talking with Elijah and Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration yet they couldn’t muster enough belief to use the power that Jesus had given them to heal the sick!
Please at some time soon, read and meditate on the story of the Transfiguration of Jesus: (Matthew17:28-36) It is amazing!
There is actually a church named the Church of Transfiguration on the top of Mount Tabor in Israel. The actual location of the Transfiguration is debatable but the news report is not.
Watch their unbelief in action which is a portrait of what is happening right this very moment.
”And when they approached the multitude, a man came up to Him, kneeling before Him and saying, Lord, do pity and have mercy on my son, for he has epilepsy, and he suffers terribly; for frequently he falls into the fire and many times into the water.
And I brought him to Your disciples, and they were not able to cure him. And Jesus answered, O you unbelieving, warped, wayward, rebellious and thoroughly perverse generation! How long am I to remain with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to Me.
And Jesus rebuked the demon (the disease of epilepsy. In Jesus’ walk on earth all diseases were believed to be demons and if you think about it, they are.) and it came out of him, and the boy was cured instantly. (another example of God moving at the speed of thought.)Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked privately, Why could we not drive it out?
He said to them, Because of the littleness of your faith For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you can speak to this mountain, Move from here to yonder place, and it will move; and NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU!
(Matthew 17:20)
Jesus replied, “Have faith in God . I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea!’ and ]does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says is going to take place, it will be done for him .
For this reason I am telling you, whatever things you ask for in prayer believe that you have received them, and they will be given to you.”
(Mark 11:22-24)
This declaration that we have the power to speak things in or out of existence (I.e, Corona Virus) was so important for us to know, that Jesus taught it twice in different instances.
A mustard seed is the smallest of all seeds. Remember that at that time, Jesus had not finished His work and had not left men His faith.
Now, we have the faith of Jesus if we make Him our King. Then, they had to rely on their flesh faith, their natural belief system, and the disciples did not believe Jesus even after He had given them the authority to heal sickness and had demonstrated to them how to use it. The disciples had an excuse, we do not.
Their inability to summon enough belief to cast out the demon of epilepsy made Jesus angry. He was not angry with them as much as He was with the spirit of unbelief that they had allowed to overcome them. He called them many negative names. Jesus didn’t punish them. He was not speaking to them. He was speaking to the spirit of unbelief. Jesus sternly rebuked that spirit!
Jesus’s Words are very prophetic. They were not spoken to that generation alone but ours as well. The thing that drives God to anger is unbelief because it is something that even He can not change.
Jesus has told me many times that our job is to lead the horse to water, not to shove his head in and make him drink, that is a decision, a choice that the horse must make alone, just as we must make a decision to believe or not believe.
Read this question slowly and intently. Answer the question in your mind.
“O you unbelieving, warped, wayward, rebellious, and thoroughly perverse generation! How long am I to remain with you? How long am I to bear with you?”
Fast forward to today. We are faced with the Chinese virus, in my opinion and it is only my opinion backed by logic and news reports from among others the New York Post , Bible Bro, and The Daily News is that Corona virus was created in a Chinese Laboratory and, fueled by ignorance of the Word of God and the collective unbelief of “believers.”
The level of unbelief we are seeing today is astonishing. The ignorance is heart-rending. How could the teachers of the Gospel of Jesus have failed so miserably to teach their flocks that disease is powerless in the body of those who know and believe Jesus?
How is it that billions of “believers” all over the world do not know or believe that Jesus destroyed every disease known and unknown to man by dying from them all once for all on the cross?(Isaiah 53:4-5, Matthew 8:16-17, 1Peter2:24, Psalm103:1-3, 1Peter2:24, John 10:10)
How is it that billions of “believers” all over the world do not know or believe that Jesus gave us the same power that He used to raise the dead, heal every disease, and do miracles of all kinds?(John14:12-14)
How is it that billions of “believers” all over the world do not know that Jesus gave us the power to speak and command diseases to dry up and disappear? How are they ignorant that they have the authority to bind anything, especially diseases on earth and in heaven, from attacking them?
(Mark 11:22-24 and Matthew 18:18)
How can Jesus’s sheep not know that because Jesus threw satan to earth and gave us dominion over all evil, that “NOTHING SHALL IN ANYWAY’S HARM YOU!”? (Luke 10:18-19)
How do you suppose Jesus who died from coronavirus and every other disease on the cross so that we have the power to choose not ever to be sick, feels right now?
How must our dear Jesus who loved us so much that He died from our diseases feel as He watches His blood-bought sheep cowering in their homes at the demand of secular politicians and unbelieving scientists who just know that they are smarter and more powerful than God?
I must address the ubiquitous question that comes every time I teach that Jesus destroyed disease. “Well, Pastor Allen, if Jesus killed coronavirus and all diseases, why are there so many dying in hospitals? Why are there hospitals at all?
The answer is the collective unbelief of the people!
What would have happened if when this scourge was released, a majority of people knew and believed without a doubt that Jesus destroyed it on the cross and further that He bought us the power to do the same?
Here is the answer from an eyewitness, Matthew, the disciple who was with Jesus in His home town of Capernaum where this incident occurred, at the time.
Jesus grew up there and they knew Him as a native carpenter apprentice and journeyman. They knew His Mother and brothers and sisters. They could not believe that He was God even after all of His mighty works and miracles had become well known.
“And they took offense at Him they were repelled and hindered from acknowledging His authority, and caused to stumble. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house. And He did not do many works of power there because of their unbelief!(Matthew 13:57-58)
Today “believers” are ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus, especially those who call themselves Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Evangelists, and Preachers.
They like Nicodemus are horrified at the prospect of what would happen if they dared preach the truth! They are petrified by the fear of what their congregants might do if they spoke the truth of Jesus.
Instead of believing Jesus and His promises and fearlessly teaching them, they lock up their churches and tell their flocks to stay at home!!! ASTONISHING! Church should be the first place “believers” who are sick should go, but for the unbelief of the leader and the congregants.
How can they preach the great and precious promises of Jesus when they don’t believe them? Because they have refused to teach the truth, their flocks are now living in danger and in hell on earth!
Just as in His walk on earth, Jesus’s teachings offend them. A leader could lose His income, His status, His country club membership, His multi-million dollar mansion, His spot on Trinity Broadcasting, His giant gaudy and superfluous building, and all that He holds dear for teaching the Words of Jesus.
PLEASE, if you think I am being too hard on the irresponsible leaders of the church, PLEASE, read the twenty third chapter of Matthew. Im tough on them but my Boss called them “Sons Of Hell1”
Really! How do you think God the Father is dealing with all of this. Surely He is employing His incomprehensible mercy. Surely God has forgiven our unbelief. Surely He weeps for us. Surely His heart is broken to watch His people fear and die from this disease. Surely God grieves our ignorance and unbelief.
How long will He remain with us? How long will He endure our disrespect? How often will He allow His children to break His heart?
Jesus said that the end-times would be like the days of Noah. He gave the pagan worshippers of Noah’s day one hundred and twenty-five years to turn away from their false gods to Him.
How many years in human terms has man rejected the teaching of Jesus?
Some will think it crazy that I talk to Jesus all day every day. If so, they should read the tenth chapter of John. I do. Two nights ago, He made a simple statement and it was the happiest promise of all. “I am coming for you.” He didn’t say how, when, or where—just those exact Words.
Frankly, I believe that God may have had enough. Knowing Him, I believe that there will be a short time after this disgraceful behavior when His grace and mercy cause Him to hesitate a bit to see if there is a turn away from hedonistic guidance to Him and His word. Some call it repentance. I pray that this is so.
When we stand before Jesus, whether that is today or tomorrow or when we die, What will we report to Him? Will we say that we stood fast believing and sharing His Words and blessings without fear, never wavering regardless of the thoughts of others? Will we say that while others lost their heads and blamed us, that we kept ours, as Rudyard Kipling wrote in the poem “If”?
You can, however, believe this:
JESUS IS COMING!
PLEASE BE COURAGEOUS FOR OUR KING! PASS THIS TEACHING TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE. Don’t worry about what others will think of you.
Glory to God in the Highest! Thank you, dear King, that you have healed everyone from all diseases.
