May we all search our hearts and ask God what He would have us do to prepare for such a baptism of fire.
Note, this is for an in-house discussion amongst the Pentecostal/Charismatic caucus.
I'm having trouble following it... can you summarize the prohpecy for me?
ENDTIMES; PROPHECY; DREAMS; VISIONS PING LIST PING FOR THE PENTECOSTAL/CHARISMATIC IN-HOUSE PRAYER, MEDITATION, ENCOURAGEMENT, EXHORTATION, DISCUSSION CAUCUS THREAD
Please let me know if you want on or off this ping list.
Blessings,
In other words, if you're here to fight or insult, leave now.
If you are here to discuss in the spirit of love, discuss.
Have I got that right, Quix?

GET READY! BRACE YOURSELVES! CLEAN UP YOUR ACT!
God is going to soonish enter the world as never before in a purifying refiner's fire of holiness and Holy Spirit power and might. Whatever can be shaken will be shaken. Whatever's chaff in a believer's life [and likely elsewhere] will be vulnerable to being incinerated.
This life is not about comforts and parties for man's fleshly pleasures. It's about God's Glory. HE WILL BE GLORIFIED IN AND THROUGH US according TO HIS GOOD PLEASURE AND PRIORITIES, not our own.
SURRENDER ALL. There is no other option. Whatever you thought was your "all" is likely to be shown to be anemic. Surrender your all as best you can and ask God to take the rest regardless of how much of a death grip your flesh tries to maintain on whatever it is.
Determine to will God's will, Oh, Lord. Make that a confession and a desire. Determine to then DO God's will as He enables.
Buckle your seat belts. The "G" [vs E] ticket ride is about to begin.
I also believe the prophecy hints at grand things God is going to do in behalf of His Kingdom and His saints in the coming months and years. The light will get lighter and the dark, darker. But living and walking in His light with Him will cost us our all. We will look back and see it was all worthless anyway.
As Jim Elliott said--he is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.
Quix commentary on his summary:
God loves to give good gifts to His kids. He's even happy to give us some comforts AS LONG AS THEY DON'T DETRACT FROM OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.
Personally, I believe that even requiring that HIS GLORY BE UPPERMOST is for the benefit of us and all creation. HE WILL NOT HAVE REBELLION IN HEAVEN AGAIN. I don't believe He is some egomaniacal super tyrant NEEDING adoration etc. HIS GLORY AND OUR ADORATION are in our best interests and in the best interests of all creation. Just imho.
thanks.
Yes. That's my understanding of the forum's rules on such threads.
I earnestly work to post such within the RM's guidelines and SOMETIMES at the RM's specific exhortation and counsel.
Of course, I first endeavor to follow Holy Spirit's leading on such while sometimes checking with the RM for discernment and a check on my own sense of such things.
De nada;
Bu Xie;
You're welcome.
Thanks for the ping!!!
Thanks for saying so.
Any particular confirmation in your spirit or word from The Lord to you as you read it?
A FREEPER has informed me that this has already begun to happen in his very traditional congregation/denomination.
I'm asking him to consider posting about what's happened and the results.
All I know is that this is the second time that I have read/heard something like this.
Ahhh. Thanks.
I've been hearing such for some time, too.
What did you think of the LA FREEPMAIL? Sure hope not but have also been convinced myself that that is on the schedule.
In this day and age, I can see something like that happening. I do think it is an interesting post.
The idea that the puppet masters are likely in cahoots with terrorists is certainly an issue worth prayer.
But mostly . . . that we and our loved ones must be walking closer and closer to God. It's never been really optional for those seeking life. It will become less so, imho.
But that fellow's dream was particularly vivid and specific, it seems to me. Very intense.
Is the fiery furnace experience slated to be part of God's Holy Spirit fire or are they different things?

I hope I understand this correctly, we need to be on fire for God. I believe it to be a part of God's Holy Spirit. God let's us go through trials and tribulations (refining). Remember the potter and the clay.
I reread it again, I believe it to be apart of God's Holy Spirit.
I think you're right.
But after the baptism WITH fire, I bet we go through trials and tribulations a LOT easier.

Perhaps like the 500 lb canary saying
HERE, KITTY, KITTY . . .
wow. I read the article and something I've never experienced before is happening. I'm speaking aloud in Bible Code. xym 231rt w45rw xxmz. Hallelujah. :-)
