"Agreeing with Texas? I don’t understand, Kevin’s message is important and if you don’t believe your own messengers, Catholic or Protestant, it’s your loss. Prophecy is a help."

It is not that the original content that you posted didn't sound good, but anyone that believes in Jesus could have said it. Whether you are a Catholic/Protestant, it makes no difference when it comes to claiming something is from Jesus Himself. I was not discounting the message, just the messenger. We have to discern anything that someone says is a "Message from God", because even though it may sound right, following that person can lead us down a wrong path. That is why the many Catholic apparitions are not approved by the church, they may sound good, but when you get down to the nitty gritty, they can lead you astray. We always need to be careful of who we read and listen to, we can not allow to be swayed from the truth of who Jesus is.

The point of my statement was so that people can discern for themselves who this man you posted is about. Maybe your post sounded good, but if you read other things he attributes to Jesus, it kind of sounds unnatural. I have studied a lot about apparitions and the ones that have been found to be false all have a common thread of being to detailed. Sorry, but the truth is the truth. The devil can repeat scripture too. If we allow ourselves to believe this man is really receiving messages from Jesus, then in a couple months he could tell us to do, or believe something that is not true. This is how the devil works, he suck us in with truth, then "BAM" he lies and we believe him. We have the biggest deceiver as our president. He sucked everyone in, then "BAM".

I appreciate you explaining, really. The message is true,
OSAS is a heresy and the “Altar Call” does not save
you, it’s about a conversion. Justification is life long not a moment in time, you have to be a doer of Christ’s teachings as Jesus said in that paragraph of the revelation, of course, everyone agrees less a few, the “prosperity gospel” is not of Christ.

No one is following Kevin Barrett. He is just the messenger, Our Lord’s words are sound like you shared.

The reason many Catholic “apparitions”...private revelation
haven’t been approved yet is because the Church is prudent.
They have to wait until the events revealed in the prophecy take place. Before that happens, they notice the current fruit, conversions, if the messages line up with Church teaching. There have been so many messages from Heaven,
Protestant and Catholic because we are close to the Great
Tribulation.

blessings,

I noticed, when I first read it, that it sounded a lot like the “interpretations of messages in tongues” I would hear when I was a member of AG for 18 years. It was mostly innocuous stuff that was in the bible. Interestingly, the one “prophecy” that was ever given there that was actually quantifiable, also turned out to be dead wrong.

This OP has some very nice biblical principles in it. Frankly, Satan included scripture when he tempted Jesus. But when I saw that remnant phrase, immediately Revelation 7:9. That is not a remnant.

In fact, considering that the bible takes pains to categorize the 144,000 just before it and even count the army from the east as 300,000,000, to then, in verse 14 describe the people as “These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” and in verse 9 describe their number as “a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues” makes it clear it is a very, VERY large number of people.

That does not sound like a “remnant”. I causes me to throw out the rest of the so-called “prophesy”.
