Duties of the candlesticks during the tribulation

[William H.]

God's election will have a job to do during the time of the great Apostacy so why would they fly away before then?

In Matt.24, Mark13 and Luke21 we have a order that is not by chance
Tribulation /then/ 2nd Advent
Afterwards we are told Parables of which go indepth on the generation of those days, How such things will come to pass, How the one who stays working in the field is the one who is blessed, How some fall short in those days when it comes to their calling and some come around in those days.

Duties of the elect:
* Luke 12:11-12 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
*Mark 13:11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
*Matthew 10:19-20 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
*Luke 21:12-19 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake. And it shall turn to you for a testimony. Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish.In your patience possess ye your souls.

Rev.3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

These are obviously God's elect. They have the SEAL of God and therefore will not be decieved. These are those who are armed with the spiritual armor of God. The enemy is told not to harm those with they seal of God.
Revelation 7:3 / Revelation 9:4

Spiritually we are given power OVER the enemy in Christ's name, evil MEN that bare the mark will out number the elect though and will persecute the elect (beat, imprision, and even kill the election), and in this way those that bare the mark (embrace evil within their own hearts do also work for the enemy) will devote themselves to serving the enemy. (giving suck, nurseing along, mark in the hand) (Impregnated



Luke 21:34-36 (KJV)

34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
The deception is the subject! "All things", we are sealed and armed by God! The enemy has no power over us! We have not pride of life nor do we seek earthly riches. Remaining faithful to the end!

Luke 12:37Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
The masses wont be for they will already be embraceing one as Christ. the Greek word anti mean INSTEAD OF!

1 John 2:15-17 (KJV)
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Matthew 10:28
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Luke 12:5
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
Luke 17:33
Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
Matt. 10:38- And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
Christ gave his physical live for YOU, can you do your part and give your life to him?

Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
Acts 20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
  1 Thessalonians 3:4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.


Rev. 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book


Do you understand the seals????? Matt.24:4-13/ Mark 13:5-13, Luke 21:8-19/ Rev.6, Rev 8:1-5/???

--------------------

Matt 5:13,14,15,16 and

Matt 25:14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30

are two parables about those who are capable of sowing seed. To whom much is given much is expected, those who refuse to do so are resisting the Holy Spirit.

Matt 25:29-30 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matt.5:13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

[William H.]

2 Thessalonians 2:11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

John 17:15
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
