A False Revival in the Making

To be restored as promised in Joel 2 and according to II Chronicles 7, we must turn, or repent, return and be reconciled.  There will be some good things that happen in America, that's why the false revival will be so believable, in the beginning.  It will not appear to begin as "false!"  There will be some true hearts wanting to please our Creator, but . . . considering the fact that ancient Israel, the chosen people, always managed to be derailed, America is already "proudly" proclaiming an attempt to "do what is right in our own eyes!"  Scripturally speaking, "doing what is right in our own eyes" does not align with "repentance."

There are so many varying interpretations of Daniel and the book of the Revelation, they cannot all be correct!  Then there's the "pre-trib rapture" theory vs. the mid-trib, vs. post-trib.  To be honest, I truly tried to believe in the pre-trib rapture, but I just couldn't . . . Messiah and Paul made entirely too many statements regarding persecution, and let's face it, the country with the most Bibles has it pretty easy.  I realize there is some pressure coming on, but realistically, we've not seen anything of the magnitude experienced by the prophets and apostles.
For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.  But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, . . . And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. Mark 13:22-24, 26

What I feel led to mention is the fact that many believe the anti-Christ will be hateful and horrifying, and at some point the One World Order will persecute the remnant to the point of martyrdom, but in the early days of this unifying power, it will genuinely seem like a good thing.  The anti-Christ is actually better translated "false Messiah."  We've seen two really good political examples of this in America in the last decade and I'm not blaming either man, but rather pointing out just how loyal and faithful their "followers" are.  Democrats acted like Obama was the long awaited Messiah.  Now, those who have been politically disgruntled find absolutely no fault in Trump, and actually defend him as faithfully as Obama fans defended him.  I'm not offering any disrespect toward President Trump.  I pray for him and have written him a letter.  I do not believe President Trump is a bad man, but he is not terribly knowledgeable about Scripture.  He has some very poor spiritual advisers, and I believe this will lead to a false revival across America.

Although we won't admit it, we've had politically correct Christianity for years in America, a sinner's prayer that doesn't change lives, and folks placing their faith in all sorts of things calling it "of G-d!"  The fact that there are two upcoming, promoted "gatherings" next month indicates we are at the threshold of spiritual change and possible division to the very core of our nation.  The first one actually takes place in Washington DC.  "America's Tent of Meeting" is scheduled to take place through three days of Feast of Tabernacles or "Sukkot."   On the surface, this may sound wonderful and if even one person's eyes are opened, it will be well worth it, but this is a political gathering using a Feast of YHUH, to man's convenience and agenda . . . Fifty states, fifty tents, one voice.  Scary, scary business, on a spiritual level.

Later in the month, Kansas City will hosting what is called a "Unity + Revival Conference 2017,"celebrating a year of destiny!  From the speaker lineup, this looks like the next step in bringing the Protestants back to the Catholic Church while also bringing the Messianics into mainstream American religious culture.  Actually, it's nothing more than a furtherance of the ecumenical movement started in the late 50s and early 60s with "Chrisitan Crusades" going from city to city.

There is no doubt, this nation needs a wake up call with definite and sincere repentance.  Playing religion in the nation's capital and claiming unity in the Bible belt is not the answer!

Wherefore ADONAI said, Forasmuch as this people draw near Me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear toward Me is taught by the precept of men:  Isaiah 29:13

Thus saith YHUH, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.  Jeremiah 6:16
