VISION OF THE CIRCUIT RIDE COVENANT: THE COMISSION, THE CHARGE, THE MESSAGE, THE PROMISE – WITH END NOTES FROM THE BOOK OF ELI

PART II: THE CHARGE

SCRIPTURE. “I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” – 2 TIMOTHY 4:1-4, NKJV

CHARGE. From the Greek, ‘Diamarturomai’ [διαμαρτύρομα]: “Properly, to thoroughly bear witness; to give solemn, full, earnest and clear testimony; emphasizes witnessing done with a high level self-involvement, i.e., with strong personal interest [and zeal] motivating it [as with one’s own story]; to attest or exhort to the facts and truths of the Word of the Lord, of Christ [without hesitation or any amendment to it].”

QUOTATIONS

CHAMBERS. “God did not direct His call to Isaiah— Isaiah ‘overheard’ God saying, ‘Who will go for Us?’ The Call of God is not just for a select few but for everyone. Whether I hear God’s Call or not depends on the condition of my ears, and exactly what I hear depends upon my spiritual attitude.” – Oswald Chambers, ‘My Utmost for His Highest,’ 1935; edited

BONHOEFFER. “When Christ calls a man, He bids him come and die. It may be a death like that of the first disciples who had to leave home and work to follow Him, or it may be a death like Luther’s, who had to leave the monastery and go out into the world. But it is the same death every time—Death in Jesus Christ, the death of the old man at his call.” – Dietrich Bonhoeffer, ‘The Cost of Discipleship (Nachfolge),’ 1937; edited

HERACLITUS. “Character is destiny.” – Heraclitus of Ephesus, first pre-Socratic, pre-Platonic Greek moral philosopher whose treatise on ‘Logos’ brought him close to the Christian Canon. Also known as “The Weeping Philosopher,” given to depression.

FIRST THOUGHTS

Of all the insights I have learned about the Apostle Paul in the last few years, it’s the one thing that very possibly gave him the most anguish: Those who left the Faith in ‘Betrayal’ of the Christ, and of himself – in that order.

Here is a poignant example from the same Letter to the young Timothy we are studying today. Listen with your heart here to what Bible scholars refer to as his “VALEDICTORY” (Farewell)

“Make every effort to come to me soon; for Demas, having loved [the pleasures of] this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is very helpful to me for the ministry. But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus. When you come bring the coat that I left at Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments. Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; [but that is no concern of mine, for] the Lord will repay him according to his actions. Be on guard against him yourself, because he vigorously opposed our message.

At my first trial no one supported me [as an advocate] or stood with me, but they all deserted me. May it not be counted against them [by God]. But the Lord stood by me and strengthened and empowered me, so that through me the [gospel] message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear it; and I was rescued from the mouth of the lion.” – 2 TIMOTHY 4:9-17. AMP

Can you hear him, beloved, in all his humanity, strength and honest need for encouragement? I can. The most important message here however is found not just in his personalness, but in its reflection of what resided in the Heart of Christ the King when even one former friend, Judas, chose to ‘Abandon’ Him. – cf. LUKE 22:48

Theologian ALBERT BARNES comments of this Signal Event in the Garden of Gethsemane, so relevant to our own time.

“‘Betrayest thou the Son of man “with a kiss” – The sign of friendship and affection employed in a base and wicked purpose, intending to add deceit, disguise, and the prostitution of a mark of affection to the ‘Crime of Treason.“

CHARLES ELLICOTT also writes a moving commentary on this passage that says so very much of what is taking place in the American Church today, as ‘multitudes’ are likewise departing from the Faith – and from the Messiah.

“‘For Demas hath forsaken me.’—This ‘once faithful companion’ of St. Paul had been with him during the first imprisonment of the Apostle at Rome (Colossians 4:14; Philemon 1:24); but now, terrified by the greater severity and the threatened fatal ending of the second imprisonment, had ‘forsaken’ [ἐγκαταλείπω, deserted, abandoned] his old master.

‘Having loved this present world.’—CHRYSOSTOM paraphrases as follows: ‘Having loved ease and safety, chose rather to live daintily at home than to suffer affliction, than to endure hardship, with me, and with me to bear these present dangers.’ The tradition … supposed, however, by some, that Thessalonica was chosen by Demas as his abode when he left St. Paul because it was a great mercantile centre, and his business connections were there, and he preferred them, the rich and prosperous friends, to St. Paul, the condemned and dying prisoner.” – ‘An Old and New Testament Commentary for English Readers,’ 1878, 1897; edited

THE GREAT APOSTASY. Jesus and the Apostles all warned, of course, that this sort of ‘Mass Betrayal’ would occur in sweeping, unprecedented numbers in The Last Times. Tragically, breathtakingly, we see it in virtually every part of the country in nearly all our churches today. – cf. 2 THESSALONIANS 2:1-4

As illustration, I offer the following ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE of it in a completely non-scientific survey of ‘the folks’ during my two Circuit Rides in June 2021 and January 2022 to nearly 20 states throughout the South and Northwest. In every single side conversation with the locals, it was: “We need Donald Trump!”

I mean, without exception. Passionately. Desperately. Dare I say, ‘reverently.’

And why do I call that ‘Apostasy,’ beloved? Because God does, incontrovertibly. Hear the Apostle’s unmistakable command here, on behalf of the Christ. When we ‘cavort’ (“dance around excitedly”) with the Enemy, we commit a most serious offense against God.

“You cannot drink [both] the Lord’s cup and the cup of demons. You cannot share in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons [thereby becoming partners with them].” – 1 CORINTHIANS 10:21, AMP

‘SHARING’ WITH DEMONS. From the Greek term, ‘Metechó’ [μετέχω]: “To partake of, share in; have a share of, participate in; become a member of; to belong to another tribe; [as with become wedded to, joined with spiritually].” In the final, abominable analysis, a form of uniquely American, ‘Spiritual Harlotry.’

Here’s how one leading expositor put it.

“Not only they ought not, but they could not rightly, truly, and really drink the cup of wine in the Lord’s supper, in the true faith of Christ’s bloodshed, and His sacrifice offered up for them, in remembrance of His love, and to the honour of His name; and also the cup of wine of libations, poured out and drank to the honour of the Heathen deities; these things are utterly inconsistent; ‘No man can serve two masters,’ God and Mammon, or God and Baal; nor is there any concord between Christ and Belial, or agreement between the temple of God and idols.” – JOHN GILL, ‘An Exposition of the Old and New Testament,’ 9 vols., 1746-1763; edited

‘None,’ beloved! None. Yes, that is the old professor shouting once again, as commanded.

IN SUM. To do so is to become nothing lower or lesser than a rank Idolater, what the Scripture dares to call a ‘temple prostitute’ – the punishment for which is death. Unless one sincerely repents, complete and eternal destruction surely follows. – cf. Deut. 4:25-31

DEMONS IN THE SANCTUARIES

The most dangerous development in the entirety of American Church history has been at first the somewhat subtle infiltration of Trump Nationalism into our churches. But later, the brazen infection, if you will, of QANON CULTISTS into the pews of our heretofore sacred houses of worship.

THE EVIDENCE. A recent study reported by JACK JENKINS, writing for the respected ‘Religious News Service,’ offered this alarming finding, quoted at length for its terrible importance.

“A NEW STUDY finds devotees of the conspiracy theory movement known as QAnon number in the tens of millions, a sizable Coalition that claims a number of White Evangelicals but draws from other religious groups as well…

The study, compiled from a series of surveys conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute in 2021, gauged Americans’ attachment to QAnon, whose followers are often ‘loyal’ to former PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, by asking whether respondents agreed with three statements associated with the movement:

The government, media and financial worlds in the U.S. are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles who run a global child sex-trafficking operation.

There is a storm coming soon that will sweep away the elites in power and restore the rightful leaders.

Because things have gotten so far off track, true American patriots may have to resort to violence in order to save the country…

QAnon has long been associated with a vocal subset of White Evangelical Protestants, and the PRRI report found the largest chunk of QAnon devotees are indeed White Evangelicals (20%). But the rest of the Conspiracy Theory-driven Coalition represents a relatively diverse array of faith groups: Religiously Unaffiliated Americans constitute 17% of QAnon believers, followed by White Mainline (Nonevangelical) Protestants (12%), White Catholics (12%), Hispanic Catholics (10%), Black Protestants (8%), Hispanic Protestants (6%) and other, Non-Christian religions (6%). Members of other Christian denominations only make up a small sliver of the group (3%), along with other Protestants of color (3%) and other Catholics of color (2%).” – “Study: QAnon Draws from Several Faith Groups, Numbers More than 40 Million.” – Feb. 24, 2022; edited

BLIND PASTORS. The most disturbing aspect from all this is that Pastors, alternatively, either: Ignore its presence in their congregation and remain silent; or far worse, Champion the Conspiracy View, encouraging the heresy to proliferate.

In a piece for Mediaite by MICHAEL LUCIANO (June 1, 2021), we find this staggering confession of pastoral failure:

“[Director of the Public Theology Project at ‘Christianity Today,’ DR. RUSSELL] MOORE told Axios in a report published Monday that he’s ‘talking literally every day to pastors, of virtually every denomination, who are ‘exhausted’ by these theories blowing through their churches or communities…Pastors are accustomed to having parents coming and saying, ‘We’re worried about our children.’ But these are children saying, ‘We’re worried about our parents and what they’ve become involved in.’”

MY TAKE. Permit me a moment to unbridle myself here once again, before I issue a semi-controlled shout. Pastors are “exhausted” by all this QAnon infiltration, you say? Meaning, Pastors don’t have a blessed clue about what ‘to do’ about it? Oy!

‘

How about preaching the unvarnished Truth of the Gospel,’ with detailed, courageous illustration of how it impacts the American Crisis right now, today?

A Scripture comes to mind here, and it is as severe as the titanic failure of the American Pastorate.

“‘Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!’ saith the Lord. Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; ‘Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord.’” – JEREMIAH 23:1-2, AMP

COMMENTARY. “‘Therefore thus saith the Lord against the pastors that feed my people’ — That undertake the care of My people, though they do not faithfully execute their trust. God calls them ‘His people, His flock, the sheep of His pasture,’ with respect to the ancient Covenant which He had made with their fathers. They are said to have ‘fed’ this people, because it was their duty to have done so. ‘Ye have scattered my flock’ — Namely, by acts of violence and oppression, driving them from their places to seek more safe and quiet abodes. Or, instead of looking after them, you have suffered them to be ‘dispersed’ [פוּץ, ‘dashed to pieces’] ]and through your ill example they have gone astray to Idolatry, and that, with your other sins, has brought upon them their expulsion from their own land and a general dispersion. ‘Behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings’ — Will deal with you as your sins have deserved. They would not visit the flock in the way of duty, and therefore God will visit them in ‘a way of vengeance.’” – JOSEPH BENSON, ‘Notes on the Old and New Testaments,’ 5 vols., 1811-1818; edited

I trust I have the attentions of ‘some’ Pastors at least, though you may hate me for it. But I tell you the truth: Should you take God’s Message like men, it could be the ignition to the most fruitful ministry of your entire lives. And the most difficult.

Selah.

THE TEACHING

There is a great deal here to examine, so let’s get started with FIVE KEY TERMS.

PREACH! From the action verb, ‘Kérussó’ [κηρύσσω]: “Properly, to be a ‘herald’ [forerunner, harbinger] to proclaim or announce God’s message of victory in the totality of the ‘Good News,’ publicly and with the strongest of conviction; to preach the Gospel ‘an all matters pertaining to it’ [i.e., all that it touches and explains spiritually and naturally]; act in the authority of God’s messenger; to discourse on Evangelical Truths and exhort to a belief of them and acceptance of the terms of salvation [and true piety].”

CONVINCE! From the Greek, ‘Elegchó’ [ἐλέγχω]: “To expose, convict, reprove, rebuke, discipline; to expose, show to be guilty; not only to charge, but the truth of the charge with the acknowledgement from the one charged of its truth; special emphasis upon proving the accused to be wrong in order to expose the error; to convince with solid, compelling evidence [as opposed to mere personal opinion]; to reprove, with conviction (intensity) upon the offender.”

REBUKE! The word here is, ‘Epitimaó’ [ἐπιτιμάω]: “To mete out due measure; to censure; rebuke, chide, admonish; to warn; properly, assign value as is fitting the situation to correct or re-direct; ‘to warn by instructing’; can mean ‘rebuke’ but its fundamental sense is “warning to prevent something from going wrong, thus does not necessarily carry a punishment with it; to admonish or charge sharply [with severity].”

EXHORT! Here there is the more affirmative term, ‘Parakaleó’ [παρακαλέω]: “To call to or for, to encourage; send for, summon, invite; beseech, entreat, beg, admonish; also, to comfort, console; refers to believers offering up evidence that stands up in God’s Court; to appeal, counsel in order to give aid (to one found in a difficulty or fault); to incite by words or advice; to animate or urge by arguments to a good deed or to any laudable conduct or course of action; meant to produce a remedial effect or correction [against ideas that ‘tickle’ the ears and soul toward seduction].”

FABLES. Ultimately, My Charge is to ensure that y’all do not go to Hell through being ‘seduced’ by what in the Greek is defined by the word, ‘Muthos’ [μῦθος]: “A speech, story, a fable; an idle, fanciful tale; it is that which is fabricated by the mind set over against the real and the actually true; indeed, it is specifically designed to subvert God’s Doctrines; it is synonymous in the NT as a lying myth with all its falsehood and pretenses to be what is not; therefore it is profane sophistry from the cunning deceivers [often inside the very house of God].”

MATTHEW HENRY uncharacteristically is tight and terse in his assessment of this abysmal condition of the Church, should it ever reach this point.

“People will turn away from the Truth, they will grow weary of the plain Gospel of Christ, they will be greedy of Fables, and take pleasure in them. People do so when they will not endure that Preaching which is searching, plain, and to the purpose. Those who love souls must be ever watchful, must venture and bear all the painful effects of their faithfulness, and take all opportunities of making known the Pure Gospel.” – ‘Exposition of the Old and New Testaments,’ 6 vols., 1708-1710; edited

How many times have we been in aching conversation about this very present state of the American Church with our loved ones? We cannot count them! And now perhaps you understand just a bit more, based on the very original language of the Sacred Text, why I am so adamant, so intense, and yes, so loud sometimes.

He has commanded it!

WILLIAM MACDONALD takes us home on these vital and urgent points in equally urgent and precise commentary. Recall that Paul is writing from a dreary Roman dungeon toward the end of his life, to Timothy’s struggle with the Church at Ephesus, the church that had ‘fallen out of love with Christ.’ Thus, it was collapsing midst the temptations of the then ribald and raw Pagan world. – cf. Rev. 2:1-7

Sound familiar? Let’s take a closer look.

“In view of God’s present observation of His servants and of His future reward, Timothy should ‘Herald the Word.’ He should do so with a sense of urgency, availing himself of every opportunity. The message is in season at all times, even when some might think it to be out of season. As a servant of Christ, Timothy will be called upon to ‘convince’, that is to prove or refute. He will have to ‘rebuke’what is false. He will be required to ‘exhort’ or encourage sinners to believe and saints to go on for the Lord…[Their refusal] is a poor exchange – to sacrifice Truth for Fables – but this is the wretched reward of those who refuse sound doctrine.” – ‘Believer’s Bible Commentary,’ 1995, pp. 2124-2125; edited

The ”Reward?” – The Flame, period. Full stop. No further conversation. Rather, as the Lord shouted it to me in June 2021: ¡Se acabó! – It’s over!

THE QUESTION. When was the last time you heard these things taught in your church, beloved, and with what intensity? Was there a sense of urgency or even imminency in the Preacher’s message? Was he putting the congregation on Final Alert for the Mass Disintegration occurring all around, and for the soon Return of the Judge of all things?

I already know, I already know. So, to this sorry condition of the American Church and Nation in general, ‘I ride’. But I tell you the truth of it: I do it joyfully, knowing that He has ‘Called me’ to do it: To Honor Truth and Protect the Hearer by it – ‘Till He Comes.’

LIVING IN ‘THE ZONE’

Possibly the very best treatment of Calling is from a truly exceptional Christian thinker, OS GUINESS, in his book appropriately titled, ‘The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life’ published in 2003.

He gives us our first important clue as to how it is that we indeed find, ‘The Zone’ that God called us to before time. Listen carefully here.

“God calls people to Himself, but this Call is no casual suggestion. He is so awe inspiring and His summons so commanding that only one response is appropriate—a response as ‘total and universal’ as the authority of the Caller. Thus…Disciples are not so much those who follow as those who ‘must’ follow.” – 2003; edited

When we find God’s Zone for our lives, we become nothing less than transformed into very nearly a ‘superbeing.’ All of our God-given gifts come alive as never before, and form a supernatural enhancement as evidence of His Presence in whatever task or mission assigned to us.

Here is a secular stab by writer JACOB QUEEN at this very special, essentially ‘Spiritual Place.’

THE ZONE. “When people use the term ‘in The Zone,’ they are usually describing a state of being where an individual reaches a peak level of performance. This is often used in reference to sporting events, musical performances, and many other creative endeavors, but it can potentially describe almost any mental state allowing a person to perform with a greater than normal level of skill. People often describe being in the zone as a state where everything they do is easier than it normally would be and their brain flows smoothly with accurate concentration from one activity to the next.” – “What Does It Mean to Be in ‘The Zone?’” ‘Language Humanities,’ Mar. 28, 2022; edited

PAUL THE APOSTLE put it this way when struggling to define why he preached, and why he was willing to face hardship and even death to carry out his Calling.

“For if I [merely] preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast about, for I am compelled [that is, absolutely obligated to do it]. Woe to me if I do not preach the good news [of salvation]!” – 1 CORINTHIANS 9:16, AMP

Closely echoing Dr. Guiness here, he simply had come to a place in his life and ministry where he ‘had’ to preach! This passage uses the key term, ‘compelled!’ to define Paul’s unstoppable zeal for the Gospel.

‘ANAGKÉ’ [ἀνάγκη]: “A necessity; a compelling need requiring immediate action, as with a pressing [or urgent] situation; calls for timely help, i.e., strong force needed to accomplish something compulsory (absolutely required); a condition that is typically brought on by great pain or distress; imposed either by the external condition of things, or by the law of duty, in regard to one’s advantage, custom, argument.”

THE SIN OF SILENCE. ‘‘’Woe is me if I preach not the Gospel!’ If you are a dumb and idle professor of Christ’s Truth, depend upon it that your dumb idleness will rob you of much communion with Jesus Christ. There are many Christians who would be ever so much happier, more joyous, and more assured Christians if they would go and talk about Christ to other people. Because they have locked up God’s Word in their hearts it melts away unknown, and they lose more than they suspect of the sweetness and buoyancy and assured confidence that might mark them, for no other reason than because they seek to keep their morsel to themselves.” – ALEXANDER MCCLAREN, ‘Exposition of the Holy Scriptures,’ 1900; edited

MY CONFESSION. The reason this means so much to me personally is that for years now, I have been keeping a Journal of all that I believe I hear from the Lord. For over 40 years! But only recently, in the last few weeks, I have felt prompted to begin to share what I hear with others, with you, almost each morning.

I nearly heard His Voice say, ‘Don’t keep My Words hid under a bushel any longe!.’ – cf. Matthew 5:15

JOY, PEACE & CONTENTMENT. The greatest benefits of finding out your Primary Call (we have a number of them, beloved), is the indescribable peace, joy and contentment that comes with being in ‘The Zone.’ PAUL again wrote this of it.

“Not that I speak from [any personal] need, for I have learned to be content [and self-sufficient through Christ, satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or uneasy] regardless of my circumstances.I know how to get along and live humbly [in difficult times], and I also know how to enjoy abundance and live in prosperity. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret [of facing life], whether well-fed or going hungry, whether having an abundance or being in need. I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.]” – PHILIPPIANS 4:11-13, AMP

CAVEAT. Now just so I don’t inadvertently invent a false narrative, though I have found this ‘Zone’ in the last few years, it does not mean there are not dark nights of the soul, nor temptations to give up and fold the tent from time to time.

But in the Center of the Zone, there is inevitably this Message of Divine Assurance from KING DAVID:

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.” – PSALM 23:1-6, NKJ

LAST THOUGHTS

Not much more I can add to any of this, beloved, save for this. All the years of my Calling as a Teacher were mere preparation for this Last Mission. Which reminds of a lovely story I have shared once before, but deserves repeating here as I close.

SERMON ON MOSES. It was 1980 I recall, only one year after my rather dramatic Rescue from years of alcoholism and debauchery, that some friends and I attended a Guest Address on the campus of my then-employer, University of the Pacific in Stockton, California.

I want to say the speaker was THOMAS ZIMMERMAN, a longtime respected leader in the Assemblies of God Church. I remember him as a tall, grizzled voice preacher who that particular day taught a lesson titled: “A Man, A Mission, A Moment.” And without notes, I can remember every point to this day.

THE MAN: MOSES. He reviewed the now well-known historical facts about this extraordinary Jewish leader, along with how reluctant he was at different points to assume the mantle of leadership.

THE MISSION: DELIVERANCE. Then the terrible weight of the Mission laid upon Moses’ human shoulders, not yet realizing the Divine Presence that would attend all he did in obedience to his Calling.

THE MOMENT. Now here is the most important Coda (Conclusion) I may have ever been privy to for my now decades-long walk with the Messiah. At the end of his riveting sermon, he hunched over the lectern, removed his glasses, closed his notes and Bible, and said this as his Central Thesis:

“Beloved, it has occurred to me that oftentimes the Lord will take 50 years to prepare you for a ‘Five Minute Ministry.’” – I began my doctorate in 1970. I heard the Sermon in 1980. My Commission as Circuit Rider began in March 2020. Fifty years. Go figure.

THE LAST HOUR. My friends, if you have not yet been shown, ‘The Zone,’ do not despair. Remember that I discovered it comparatively recently. I believe that in these Last Days, indeed, in what I consider this ‘Last Hour’ of human history as we have known it, is precisely when He is preparing us for our own Five-Minute Ministry.

So do I close with the Apostle’s exhuberant Word to us.

“Boys (lads), it is the last time (hour, the end of this age). And as you have heard that the antichrist [he who will oppose Christ in the guise of Christ] is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen, which confirms our belief that it is the final (the end) time. They went out from our number, but they did not [really] belong to us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us. But [they withdrew] that it might be plain that they all are not of us. But you have been anointed by [you hold a sacred appointment from, you have been given an unction from] the Holy One, and you all know [the Truth] or you know all things. I write to you not because you are ignorant and do not perceive and know the Truth, but because you do perceive and know it, and [know positively] that nothing false (no deception, no lie) is of the Truth. – 1 JOHN 2:18-21, AMPC

DK’S TAKE. Our Hour of Service has come upon us, beloved, though we are still being shaped and sharpened and cleansed and taught of Him who shall Return soon, with thunder and lightning and a Great Shaking of the whole world, to Call us to His Home in the skies. And to bring Judgment upon the Nations.

So hold on to what He is showing you, and put it to practice. For this ‘Time of Rehearsal’ is drawing to a close, that our Real Work might begin, which shall be: To share the Truth, the whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth, so help us God.

Ever your servant, DK
