Unaware

“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.  For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and did not realize until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.”  Matthew 24:37-39

 

God tasked the All Will Stand ministry with laying on my heart to preach the Gospel and warn people about things to come. 

 

Throughout the years of podcasts, shortwave radio, a bit of FM/AM radio, numerous articles and even books written, what is expected to be the final book is about to be published, with all of that information available on the ministry’s website. 

 

This work I consider done and with that said, I will be focusing locally on talking to people face-to-face, as was originally done by myself, before such other endeavors.  Hitting the streets, handing out tracts and as the opportunity presents itself, proclaiming God’s truth to those who might listen as well. 

 

This website and the associated ministry work with it has by no means ever been popular.  Nonetheless these things had to be proclaimed, they had to be said, the warnings had to be given.  Right now, there is still broadcasting going on in Africa, proclaiming the Gospel, warning those who might listen, the same things that were warned throughout the Americas. 

 

As the opening verses state, that they ‘did not realize’ so too when all of these things take place, people are not going to realize it.  The fact that we live in a world with such characteristics emphasizes the importance of ‘watching’ and being ‘ready’ (Matt. 24:42, 44). 

 

The other day there was suddenly talk about a major winter storm, eventually labeled as a blizzard, heading towards the Black Hills of South Dakota.  I decided to run up to Walmart early on and push some of my work ahead of time.

 

At Walmart the lines were massive, some items were already wiped, this before the news stations the next day actually told people to go to the store and stock up.  As I was standing in the checkout line waiting for the cashier to ring up the orders in front of me, I looked around at how people responded to this very early warning about snowfall and wondered why they didn’t respond to all of the warning signs that this world’s time is running out and it appears that Christ will be appearing sooner than later (2 Tim. 4:1), at the Rapture (1 Thes. 4:16-17), thrusting them into Judgment (Jer. 30:7). 

 

Hardly anyone ever listened to this ministry and certainly if I had preached some watered-down Bible doctrine or some fantasy-land garbage post-trib doctrine, the ‘ministry’, which at that point would not have been God’s, would have flourished. 

 

Every bit of radio programs, website costs, book publishing, was all part of my income that God enriched me with.  Never once, as of this writing, has anyone ever sent even a dollar for support, nor does All Will Stand ask for donations.

 

There were times that I had hoped that people would at least debate with me regarding some of the biblical doctrinal stances (pretrib, repentance, etc.) that were heavily promoted on the ministry’s website, yet they did not.  At least then I could try and ‘reason’ with them (Is. 1:18).  Still, a requirement of ministry is not to be popular, but to be faithful to God and His Word.  I fear God and would never purposely promote any biblical doctrine that is false or even watered-down, simply ‘thus saith the Lord’. 

 

In amongst these writings and radio shows, I also contacted several ‘conservative’ pastors, mainly Baptists, fundamental-type, who by and large denied repentance being necessary (Acts 17:30-31) for Salvation.  There were even some who were involved with the apostate post-trib doctrine.  Most of these would never contact me back, others would try to ‘agree, but disagree’ or water down the meaning of repenting, changing the biblical meaning of a change of mind, instead insisting on the false doctrine of turning from unbelief to belief. 

 

Still, I consider, for the time being, this ministry to be complete, what is written is written and what is out there is out there for public consumption, so that those who might hear would look towards their Creator, repenting of their sins before God and by faith believing into Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior (Acts 20:21). 

 

While there might still be more added to the website from time to time, the website is prepaid for awhile and hopefully will be maintained until the antichrist world government system takes it down.  Perhaps the time will come when these writings are suddenly useful to a world that has been left behind, as they will scramble to try and find out what the truth is.  They might simply remain ‘unaware’ until that time. 

 

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith.  Hereafter, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all the ones loving His appearing.”  2nd Timothy 4:7-8

 

Amen!
