It just might be that the ISA 17/Psal,83 war Israel has with its border neighbors is the vehicle by which antichrist fools Israel into believing he is their Messiah. The Restrainer may be around a bit after the Body of Christ is removed in the great ‘stand away from’ and snatching up. After all, the Restrainer is holding back the man of sin who comes with all signs and lying wonders by the power of satan.
Yes I know.
I just dunno how to transmit the message, the urgency of this message. Even my own children are conditioned to ignore it,
I share your anxiety. My kids are a lot the same way. But when Revelation 5 starts happening in real life, they know their Bible well enough to recognize it. They’ll wake up. After all, it’s not as if The Four Horsemen of The Apocalypse are gonna keep it on the down low.

“What we see today is a result of the evil in man’s heart.. but His love is displayed by taking the price for the wages if our sin... and giving us a way out...”
Amen, PigRigger. He gives us forgiveness and eternal life just for the asking. Who could ask for more than that? Praise His holy name! He is so good!
“Wrath/Tribulation”
INSPECTOR 12 says, “It don’t get called ‘wrath’ ‘til I say it gets called wrath,” and He doesn’t call it “wrath” until chapter 16.
“I just dunno how to transmit the message, the urgency of this message. Even my own children are conditioned to ignore it,”
Sometimes hellfire and brimstone sermons are useful for jarring a person from the comfortable lies they tell themselves. God bless you and yours, Kevmo.
Well yeah, God bless you and yours as well.
I’m not into the hellfire and brimstone side of the message. The weird thing, though... is that God has given me a rather strange variant of that message.
You would need to look through my recent posts for what I am calling the “a$$#0/e’s Gospel”.
I much prefer to only deliver GOOD News. Like we’re told to do...

You write EXACTLY as I woulda written.
Fantastic , truly fantastic. Just ... amazing.
Whatever truthful message it takes to get them saved, Kevmo. May God stir their hearts to be receptive to the message. They will be in my prayers. I’ll be sure to check out your variant message you mention.
My variant message is kinda.... harsh.
But so was Jesus’s message, back in the day.
Think about it, before the mid 19th century, as many as one third of children did not make it to their teens.
God’s Wrath begins in chapter 6 of the Book of Revelation. It is specifically mentioned in Rev. 6: 16, which announces that with the Seal Judgments God’s Wrath has begun.
Revelation 6 New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB1995)
16 and they *said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the presence of Him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb;
17 for the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
This dichotomy illustrates fully God's love for each; if you wish, I'll explain why and how.
9 I was once alive apart from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died;
Sorry, but I'll listen to Paul on this subject.
I'm not mocking God. In fact, I'm in awe of whoever or whatever created this universe. I question whether it is actually involved in our daily lives. I don't think so.
Not being of age they are under guardianship, someone who makes righteous judgement on their behalf.
By witness of two or more shall a thing be established, not my words, but theirs, Father, Son and Spirit.
Suit yourself.
Neither of those two verses inhibits my argument in the least—if you’re open to hearing it.
