The Final Charge

The Final Charge - By Alice Childs - https://www.raptureready.com/2020/08/06/the-final-charge-by-alice-childs/ Beloveds, we are very near the culmination of the great battle of the ages that was begun when Lucifer, Son of the Morning, rebelled against his Creator,and the mystery of iniquity that would result in the fall of mankind was born. Family of God, everything in human history - every conflict, every lie, every act of violence, every theft, every ounce of pride, every cold-heartedand self-loving attitude, every murder, every torture, every war - ALL have been the result of man following Satan's lies in rebellion against Creator God. This is the crux of the entire fallen, sin-wrecked, Hell-bound world. All that we are witnessing now and all that is yet to come is a result of theeverlasting hatred and rebellion of Satan against Jehovah God. We are living at the terminus of a revolt that was begun before man was created. Tragically for all mankind, Adam, the first man, deliberately choserebellion, following the lies of the Serpent. Satan has hated those of every generation who have, by God's grace through faith, believed and called upon God the Son for salvation. Satan has ALWAYShated those who love God. He has persecuted God's people in every generation from Adam's until this very second. We are the final generation. It should come as no surprise to us as this millennia-old conflict reaches its apex that we who are called by Jesus'sname, washed by His blood, rescued from eternal death by His blood - like those believers before us - we too in these last closing moments of the great Conflict of the Ages will be mocked, abused, hated, and some murdered and martyred for His namesake. Satan has killed billions throughout the ages. And those he has not killed he has, to one degree or another, persecuted in every way allowed to him. We know that we are at the very end just before the rapture; therefore, we also know that Satan is pulling out all the stops because he knows his timeis short. We know that all their masks are off now. We see Satan's agenda clearly among those who are deniers of God's truth and those who are openly hostile to God and His Word. We see all the masks of civility and common decency being ripped away. Behindthe facade, the grinning, gibbering, insane hatred of Satan and his demons is being clearly revealed. Believers in the first-century church saw the evil behind the political mask of Rome as millions died a martyr's death because Satan hates God. Theysaw the demonic hypocrisy of the religious Jews who also hated and denied their own Messiah and persecuted and killed ALL, both Jews and Gentiles, who did believe on Jesus as Messiah and Savior. Millions upon millions saw the glowering hatred behind the falseand demonically deceptive piety of the Roman Catholic Church. Those who believed in Jesus alone endured untold horrors at the hands of the Church of Rome in the numerous waves of persecution throughout the centuries, including the spawned-in-Hell savageryof the Inquisition. In every pagan culture that has ever existed, those who have chosen to follow God have faced Satan's wrath and fury. And although Satan tried his bestand although billions have lost their earthly lives, they loved the name above all names, Jesus their Savior, more than they loved their own lives. Billions have been killed by Satan and his minions; nonetheless, God ALWAYS has a remnant that Satan cannottouch, cannot silence, cannot eradicate, and cannot defeat. God ALWAYS has a remnant. In our GENERATION, WE are that Remnant. Depending on when Jesus calls us up, not all of us as part of the body/bride of Christ may make it to be aliveat that glorious moment, but we WILL "ALL BE CHANGED." Dead or alive, we of this final generation will partake of this glorious event, either by being resurrected from our graves or caught up in the air. Before God delivers His Remnant Church and His final judgment begins, we believers in these end times find ourselves face-to-face with the blazing,demonic hatred of the last generation of reprobate, God-hating, demon-possessed humanity who are rabidly crying out for the one who will be the Antichrist. These demon-possessed God-haters whose ranks even now are swelling to fill the earth are rabidly workingto destroy every vestige of freedom and every mention of God, salvation, and the name of Jesus across the earth. We are witnessing their ranks swelling and their hatred and demonic fury rising. They hate us because they hate God. They despise us because theydespise the name of the crucified and risen Savior Jesus Christ. They hate His Word as well because it is through the prophetic Word - that has already been fulfilled, is being fulfilled at this moment, and thatis shortly to be fulfilled - that Satan and all his horde know their doom is at hand. Prophecy coming will consummate the eternal defeat of Satan. These modern reprobates, just like all who have hated and rejected God's so great salvation, hate the eternal triune God-head. They hate the incarnateChrist. They especially hate His infallible, inerrant, and immutable Word because it records their doom. And finally, they hate each of us who are believers called by His name and cleansed by His blood. They hate us because they hate Him. We are so very close to the deliverance of the Church, both dead and alive, via the resurrection/rapture. Family of God, it is now that we MUST girdourselves in our spiritual armor. We must wield the Sword of the Spirit effectively as we "earnestly contend for THE faith" (Jude 3). Any moment now, we will hear the sound of God's celestial trumpet. Any moment now, we will hear King Jesus's shout for usto "Come up hither!" Family, we are in the last seconds of the last minutes of the last days just before the Remnant Church is caught up to meet our Lord in the air! Don'tget discouraged now! No matter how bad things get here, keep sharing the gospel! Keep warning of coming judgment even if no one is listening. They may not listen now, but after we are gone, many WILL heed and remember. Finally, keep looking up! Brethren, we KNOW Satan's tactics; they have never changed. He uses lies, deceit, discord, depression, fear, envy, pride, and intimidation. Nevertheless,regardless of his wiles and tactics, we KNOW that he is an ALREADY DEFEATED FOE. To the eternally saved and sealed believer in Christ, Satan and all his fallen angelic and demonic horde are nothing more than paper tigers who can do NOTHING to eternally savedand eternally kept believers. Oh, he may kill our body IF the Lord allows him that power, but he can NEVER have our blood-bought, eternally sealed spirits because WE BELONG TO THE ONE WHO BOUGHT US WITH HIS BLOOD AND SEALED US BY HIS RESURRECTION! Family of God, don't be afraid of what's going on around us, no matter how bad it gets or how close it comes to our door. Don't cower in fear; standin faith! We must pick up our Bibles, bow our heads and hearts before the Lord, and then stand firm upon His Word. As we make our final charge - as we give our final push - let us contend for the faith until the moment that we either draw our last breath, or untilour vile bodies are changed from corruptible to incorruptible, from mortal to immortal "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye." Our deliverance is just barely beyond our line of vision. As the late Jack Kelly used to say, "We can almost hear the footsteps of the Messiah!" Beencouraged, be bold, be wise, be faithful, and be EXCITED because the redemption of our bodies (Romans 8:23) draws (very) near! "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are notof the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, theywill keep yours also" (John 15:18-20, KJV).
