Some thoughts:
It’s a very small world sometimes and you can never tell where life will lead. Many times you will become depressed, discouraged, fighting pain, fatigue, and loneliness but, something will happen; something will spark and you get to drink that next cup of water that will keep you going (alive) if only to walk that next mile in the desert…
There are more of us out there than I thought. What the Lord said is so very true - that it is a very narrow road and you can be sure that if you are on it, it will certainly become the road less travelled.. You can look around and see the overwhelming enormity of religious institutions, government infrastructure, and financial conglomerates, and feel totally out of touch. Plus, with you being one of the called out assembly; it can put you at incredibility lopsided odds with the vast majority of the world. The isolation can at times be intense all the while that you are expected to perform in a competitive atmosphere when it comes to everyday affairs.
The world constantly bombards us with anti-Christianity in the media with New Agers like Bill Maher telling us that it’s all just a bunch of stories and mythos that have even been superseded by much older civilizations. Or, all the deluge of Hollywood films depicting another wave of aliens that come to rescue us with their tripe about how we have not yet “evolved” enough to know the truth.
And on top of all this hubris is the so-called Christian Church that has become its own caricature to the point of being non-relevant in the eyes of the world. It’s no wonder that she is called Mystery Babylon in the book of Revelation. It’s no wonder that the Lord gives His people one more call to “Come out of her”…
And it’s no wonder that right now most people don’t care.
Then again, there are some that do care. They are a very very very tiny few but after actually listening to the information and digesting the true gospel; they actually do heed the scriptures and respond to the calling.. They will usually be the ones that don’t care (in a good way) how much pain and ostracizing they have to endure because the only thing at the end of the day is to follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth.
Most people will just take in the information and that tiny spark will ignite their pilot light and they’ll get interested but after they have weighed the consequences; they will usually go right back to their old norm.
The Threshing Floor:
This is where the wheat (corn) is separated from the chaff. Very interesting scripture in:
Isaiah 21:6-12 -
6For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.
7And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed:
8And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
9And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
10O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you.
11The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?
12The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come.
The above scripture has multiple levels or threads (overlays) of meaning.
It was a very small world because I got to meet, hear from, and talk with some very special people from the modern day threshing floor. Up to this time; I could count on one hand like-minded brethren that felt the same way. It now looks like there are more travelers out here in the desert…
I encourage anyone to go to:
Last night I got the chance to talk to Randy, Bob, and Gordon in person as well as Don and Randy (via email). They are truly men of God. The encouragement they gave me was priceless. It has literally been years thinking there was something wrong with me wanting to tell others about certain revelations only to end up as the outcast and now having the joy to know that there are others in this world that are of a kindred spirit. I praise God for this.
By the way, being a watchman is a very lonely job. I can remember in the Marines that at night when everyone else was sleeping (huge metaphor) your mission was to give the alarm in case of impending danger as the “fire watch”. Oddly enough even though it was quite lonely duty, it was also a time when you did your best thinking (what now amounts to praying).
The night denotes darkness (spiritual). Babylon denotes the anti-Christ world system that right now is spinning out of control. It has fallen once and it will fall again.
The threshing floor needs more spiritual watchmen.
It’s 1:44 am right now.
Will you enquire?
