    It takes time to adjust to living in the country. Growing your own food is challenging even in places with good soil. It’s not for people who aren’t willing to work. Country living is a full time job. But I wouldn’t trade it for anything. You really get an appreciation for being outside the cities. You can really hear God’s voice when away from all the noise. That is truly the best benefit.

      Many of us are not trying to earn for living from farm.
      What we can benefit is simplify expenses and be in peace with God.
      Work is not that hard. It is refreshing for body. But it is constantly little work everyday. Whatever work is done, you feel that you accomplished at the end of the day.
      Garden with raised bed. Orchard with lot of fruits for canning. Planting wood for look and cutting for firewood.
      This is so much better experience then constant rat race in cities.
      God bless

      My wife says it's not hard work, and she do same pulling weeds in the hot sun, and watering in evening. For her it is not hard everything related to the garden.
      Maybe because it represents a holiday for us from all the worries and affairs of the city.
      We try Paul Gautschi method with woodchips, and it helps to not weed at all. You can try it also.

      Yes but EGW counselled us not to dwell in cities. The countryside must not be necessarily far from the cities. I am preparing a home also in the countyside where the water and air is pure.
      Not All Can Leave the Cities Yet
      Whenever possible, it is the duty of parents to make homes in the country for their children.-The Adventist Home, 141 (1906). LDE 118.4
      As God’s commandment-keeping people we must leave the cities. As did Enoch, we must work in the cities but not dwell in them.-Evangelism, 77, 78 (1899). LDE 96.2
      The cities are to be worked from outposts. Said the messenger of God, “Shall not the cities be warned? Yes, not by God’s people living in them but by their visiting them, to warn them of what is coming upon the earth.”-Selected Messages 2:358 (1902). LDE 96.3

      @@edaguirre8952 , Hi. When Jesus spoke to the young rich ruler, and asked him about 6 commandments, not mentioning the Sabbath, is because the six Jesus spoke of deals with us and humanity. Jesus knew the man didn't truly love humanity, and that's why He spoke of 6 commandments. The other 4, deal with just us and God. If we love God, and our neighbor as thyself, then we can keep all 10 commandments, including the Sabbath. Genesis 2:2,3: 2"And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made." 3"And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made." Exodus 20:8-11: 8"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." 9"Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:" 10"But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:" 11" For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it." Mark 2:27,28: 27" And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:" 28"Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath." John 14:15: " If ye love me, keep my commandments." Revelation 12:17:" And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ." Therefore, sir, yes, keeping all of the Ten Commandments does matter, including the Sabbath. I'm not sure what Adventist Church you visited where Ellen G White was put above scripture, and it was taught that keeping Sabbath only meant to go to church on Saturday, but that is only a portion of it. It's also about who you're going to give your allegiance and worship to, resting from all work, including house work, if you reverence Christ as the Creator. Therefore, my friend, the spirit that was speaking to you was not the Spirit of God, but of the Devil. However, Ellen G White was a true prophetess of God. The Catholic Records: "Sunday is our Mark of authority the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact." September 1, 1923 The pope also has an encyclical of this Sunday Blue Law, and if you go back in history, you can see where Obama has applauded the pope for what he's doing, "I welcome His Holiness Pope Francis's encyclical, and deeply admire the Pope's decision to make the case, clearly, powerfully, and with the full moral authority of his position, for action on global climate change. As Pope Francis so eloquently stated this morning, we have a profound responsibility to protect our children, and our children's children, from the damaging impacts of climate change. I believe the United States must be a leader in this effort." Also, you can see Trump standing by Catholic idols of the Pope, and he's already made Sunday a national day of prayer. Therefore, these things will come to pass my friend. Make your election sure on which side you're going to be on.

      Anyone who like to give their life to Christ, must believe within their heart, and then confess with their mouth, Christ dying for their sins on the cross, and rising on the third day. That is in Romans 10:9
      Dear Father Which Is In Heaven,
      I know that I am a sinner, and deserve eternal death. I believe Your Son, Jesus died on the cross for my sins, was buried, and rose on the third day to seal my salvation. Come into my life, and come into my heart, and change me into what you want me to be. I now accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Thank you. In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen.
      In typing sinner, no I am not condemning you. I had to say the same thing. We all are sinners, and need Christ to redeem us. We must all know He is our only way to be saved and to get to heaven. Now, once saved always saved, is not true. You still have to confess your sins, and ask for the Holy Spirit to bring it back to your remembrance so you can, and let Christ turn you from them.

    I would say "Wait on the Lord" to lead you where He knows to be safe. Why Im saying this is because my husband and I lived in Melbourne for years until 2017 we then left Australia and settled in Samoa living on my father's land.
    At the same time my daughter and her husband moved out of Melbourne to one of the rural areas next to the border of New South Wales. Nobody knew there was going to be a pandemic at that time Only God knew. Where my daughter moved to to this day is covid free and where my husband and I moved to is also Covid free. Im saying that God looks after His children and He move them to safety when He knows there is trouble coming. I really Thank God for looking after us. Because I totally believe that He does all the time.

    We raised our children away from the cities in semi-rural settings from their birth to adulthood, but came back to the city with trepidation 4 years ago due to changes in our lives as we approach retirement.. As the COVID pandemic developed in early 2020, we felt it represented the beginning of the symbolic Roman armies surrounding Jerusalem, so we began to look for a place away from the cities.
    It has been very challenging finding the right house with at least 2 acres of land, even as we now live in southern US State with lots of sunshine and good weather year-round. After much praying and searching from April to December, and frankly without receiving a "thus says the Lord" sign that would tell us where the right place is, we have finally purchased a 5-acre lot where we plan to build a home, drill a water well, grow fruits and vegetables, and bring our sons with us if necessary (and them willing). We have also been preparing by learning everything we can about growing food as we have absolutely no experience doing that.
    I wish I could say we are now completely happy and at peace with our decision, but we still have so many doubts about our decision, and fully know how many challenges are ahead in the coming 6-12 month with building our home and make everything happen, including the transition from my work to final retirement. We need lots of prayers.

The dominoes have begun to fall. Leave now while you can, or you will not be able to get out. Right now, you can still sell your property and buy country property, soon you will not be able to do so.

Were it not for the "guts" of d few to stand for "truth"?-- eeeeverybody just goes along with d political/science scams of NWO! Just like 911! Everybody juz went along and the few who were waking up d country regarding d scam are mocked & ignored! Now, covid! Know what's next on d this "production drama"?? Right there on your faces U.S. IS FORMING the foundation image of the NWO Church-state beast! The Papacy IS even announcing their plans, intentions on MSM while you SDA (God's people?) are tiptoing over the headlines! Again, except for a "few"? What happened to d rest of you??
      In other countries? Citizens are locked down in cities, then counties, then province(state). There are police/armed guards/military at checkpoints! And these measures? Are what some of d U.S. community leaders with d "media propaganda" were thinking of doing!!??
      Your EGW prophecy/warnings were spot right on to warn you all of this! Coz that? Are what prophets do! But of course, prophets are not honored in their own house & in their country nor by their own people? Except by a few?? Pathetic!

      The Catholic Church brought "the trinity doctrine" into Christianity !
      The trinity doctrine is not biblical.
      There is one God, The Father !
      Jesus Christ is His only begotten son and therefore Divine. (Divine Nature)
      The Holy Spirit is The Spirit of The Father and His Only Begotten Son.
      (Not a 3rd god)
      And this is Life Eternal,
      that they might know YOU
      THE ONLY TRUE GOD,
      and Jesus Christ, whom YOU have sent.
      (John 17:3)
      __________________________________________
      The Holy Spirit is not a 3rd God, called God The Holy Spirit.
      For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
      (Romans 8:14)
      Now the Lord is that Spirit:
      and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
      (2 Corinthians 3:17)
      And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth ''THE SPIRIT OF HIS SON'' into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
      (Galatians 4:6)
      The Holy Spirit = The Spirit of God and Christ
      _________________________________________________
      Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you.
      If ye loved My, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for My Father is greater than I.
      (John 14:28)
      Jesus Christ Himself said that His Father is greater than Him.
      _____________________________________________________________
      Jesus Christ the Son of God died for our sins !
      Not God The Father.
      God The Father cannot die.
      See now that I, even I, am He, and there is no god with Me:
      I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal:
      neither is there any that can deliver out of My hand.
      For I lift up My hand to Heaven, and say, I live for ever.
      (Deuteronomy 32:39-40)
      Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
      (Psalm 90:2)
      But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
      (Psalm 102:27)
      ___________________________________________________________
      “Even he shall build the temple of God,
      and he shall bear the glory,
      and shall sit and rule upon His throne,
      and He shall be a priest upon His throne:
      and the counsel of peace shall be between them BOTH.”
      (Zechariah 6:13)
      In this verse it's very clear, the plan of salvation shall be between them BOTH !
      1) God The Father
      2) Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son
      Two persons !
      Not 3.
      _______________
      Look at this interesting conversation between Christ and the Samaritan Woman !
      Did Jesus preach to her about a Trinity god ?
      Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe Me,
      the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, WORSHIP The Father.
      (John 4:21)
      Ye worship ye know NOT what:
      we KNOW what we worship:
      for salvation is of the Jews.
      (John 4:22)
      But the hour cometh, and now is,
      when the TRUE Worshippers shall WORSHIP The Father in spirit and in Truth:
      for The Father seeketh such to worship Him.
      (John 4:23)
      God is a Spirit:
      and they that WORSHIP Him must worship Him in spirit and in Truth.
      (John 4:24)
      These verses talk about our Father who is spirit, and we are to worship Him in spirit and in Truth.
      Many think that our God is a "mystery" which they call a Trinity.
      The words of Jesus "Ye know NOT what ye worship" would apply if our God is a mystery.
      When we get to Heaven, God will not then say “Meet My Spirit”.
      We will see God face to face, and we will know Him !
      The Father of Jesus Christ.
      That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father of glory,
      may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him:
      The eyes of your understanding being enlightened, that ye may know what is the hope of His calling,
      and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
      (Ephesians 1:17-18)
      _________________________________________
      Does Matthew 28:19 proves a Trinity ?
      Read the quote below,
      The Catholic Encyclopedia, II, page 263:
      “The baptismal formula was changed from the name of Jesus Christ to the words Father, Son, and Holy Spirit by the Catholic Church in the second century.”

    I was born in 1950 and when I was in 2nd grade we moved to the “country” life in Missouri. It was my first experience with no indoor anything.😳 No toilet (outhouse outside) one wood stove to heat the house (a converted one room schoolhouse) and heat the water for dishes and baths (taken in a big round metal tub) and before we had an actual pump put in the house over the sink we had to go outside to pump any water. We did have lights, but no indoor heating or air conditioning. Once a year my two older brothers had to dig out the underground contents of the two outhouses!🤮 There were five kids in my family so things were pretty tight. When I grew up and got married my husband and I decided to do some country living and he was amazed at how much knowledge I had regarding it.🤣 He never experienced it growing up. My how things have changed.☺️

    I keep praying about what I should do with my life and I have even fasted for an answer. Everytime I open the bible expecting an answer I get something like, "All is vanity and grasping for the wind. It is up to a man to choose his path and what he does with his life but everything will be judged, whether good or bad." Every time I expect an answer if I should be fleeing or staying...I keep getting the answer that it's up to me to choose because I have free will. I had a dream a few years ago of The Great Tribulaiton...in it my family was fleeing from the city in the winter. We reached an abandoned cabin and thought we could find some supplies so we went in. We ate some bread that we had prepared before hand and then got our winter cloths back on to go outside complete with a small backpack only big enough for our bibles, some water and bread. I opened the door and noticed that it was snowing and the great city before me was being destroyed by fire and brimstone hailing down...I said, "Lord, What shall we do we are not prepared for this?"...We then steped out of the doors threshold and a great whirlwind surrounded us, like a snow globe, and we were captured up to Gods Holy Mountain. When my feet where planted on the mountain top I said, "God what about everyone else?" Then on the cloud covering the mountin, people started to appear, some I knew and some I did not and God said, "Everyone you have told about Me will be here." Then I started to wake up and the mountain and vision started to disapear and I asked God, "What shall I do with my life while I am still here on earth?" To which He said, "Tell them abou t me and just BE." I then said, "God if this is truly you giving me this dream/vision...I want to hear your voice when I wake up." I started to come out of my slumber and I could still hear the words, "BE...Be...be..." trailing off. I sat up in my bed and looked over at my husband to see if he was the sorce of the voice and he was sleeping with a little snore. I know this was Gods voice and I know that I have free will to do whatever I want with my life...I will be judge for what I have done good or bad but its up to me to choose what I want for my life. The most important thing is to tell as many people as I can about Jesus because they will BE with me on that Holy Mountain on the day of Judgment. Since that time I have done a lot of research on the word Be...which means "to exist". This was also a commanding word spoken in the begining of creation... "Light Be" & by Jesus "Be Healed". The meaning of life is simple...God just wants us to exist...He wants us to BE...that is why we are here...He gave us free will and what we do with our life is all just vanity. The most important thing for us to do in this time in not worry how we will preserve our own life but to tell people about God & what He did for us on the cross.
    Matthew 6:12-21 NKJV
    Lay Up Treasures in Heaven
    “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
    John 12:25-28 NKJV
    Those Who Love Their Lives Will Loss Them
    "He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor. “Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour. Father, glorify Your name...”
    If you are choosen to go through The Great Tribulation... do not wish that you may be saved from it but pray that you will glorify God by going through it because He put you here for this very hour! "The harvest is great but the workers are few....Therefore pray that the Lord send out more workers" Luke 10:2

    I live in NYC and I cannot flee the city. Why? Because I have no family in this country and therefore I'm on my own with my children and husband. We both are first generation in this country and husband is blessed with work in the city. If Gods blessing is on to your family, no matter where we are, we should not doubt. Faith is not what you see, it's what you experience. If Americans who flee the cities because they have resources in the suburbs like family or jobs or relatives, then that's good. But some people are not blessed with the capacity to simply move to suburbs and start a new life without worrying about jobs and stuff.

The truth is Jesus never settle in just one place. Jesus travel and so are His Desciples. THey minister to city and country. Now maybe you say its different because I am not ministering like the disciples. But each one of us are ministering through our daily life to either our coworkers, neighbours or family members. SO its all nice and good using an example of sodom and gomorah. But bible is not just a story about abraham. You need to read stories from other prophets in the bible.

So Abraham live in the sodom and gomora for a while because he actually follow God's voice. THe fact that He left the city is again because God told him too. Maybe for a reason that God is destroying the city. But lets say God is not destroying Sodom & Gomora, but God still wants Abraham out of there, I am sure Abraham will follow. So its not about whether God is destrying the city and thats why abraham left, its about Abraham Left because He follow Gods voice , regardless God is destrying the city or not. I am sure many people in Third World Country, are wishing that all people in Developed Country should move away from this Developed Country and live in the poor countries instead. If you compare Small town in Ohio to New York city, then you would call NYC a city.

Then I move to Canada for 3 years, then I move to Oregon for 4 years and now I have been living in NYC for almost 10 years. I always move alone never with a family. Alone. So if you have never travelled on your own, you cannot understand the feeling of Abraham when he was called out of his home country to the land God has chosen but Abraham has no idea where. I also have no idea where I am gonna end up next year or 2 years or 10 years from now. All I know, whether I end up in a city or suburb, I know for sure God will always be wth me. Abraham steps his foot in Sodom and Gomora for no other reason other than following God's Voice alone. It was not a mistake that Abraham be there. It was not a mistake that Abraham spends sometime in Sodom and Gomora. The only mistake we humans can make is when we dont listen to God's Voice. There are times God's Voice leads Abraham to Sodom and Gomorah, and there are times God's Voice leads Abraham out of Sodom & Gomora. What matters is to follow God's Voice. And no pastors can tell you where to go or when to go. Only God can tell you that. SO follow God's Voice! You will be blessed wherever you are. Dont doubt God's Blessing because another human being tells you differently.

      WARNING!
      The danger lies in thinking that we are in communion with Christ and not ready for the end. Just like the disciples of Christ who ignored timely warnings. All the apostles were unprepared for an unexpected end. Ten Virgins will also be surprised.
      The Parable of the Ten Virgins
      Mat 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
      Mat 25:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
      Mat 25:3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
      Mat 25:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
      Mat 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
      Mat 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
      Mat 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
      Mat 25:8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
      Mat 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
      Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
      Mat 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
      Mat 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
      Mat 25:13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
      The Apostle Peter was advised to pray for himself because the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. But he did not apply the warning. He was unprepared to face reality.
      Mat 26:40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
      Mat 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
      We will all face a reality that requires of us wisdom and loyalty to God’s authority that can endure the hatred of the whole world.
      KJV
      Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
      Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
      ISV
      Mat 24:9 "Then they will hand you over to suffer and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations because of my name.
      Mat 24:10 Then many people will fall away, will betray one another, and will hate one another.
      Today is the time to prepare for these events.
      Every flaw needs to be overcome today. We have a time of grace to deal with habits.
      Sin must be confessed and rejected. Otherwise we lie to ourselves.
      The whole world lies to itself that God is with them and everyone believes differently. All accept unification and all reject God’s authority because they do not want to accept obedience to one commandment which explicitly states that Yahweh is the CREATOR of heaven and earth.
      God's 4. Commandmet
      Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
      Exo 20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
      Exo 20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
      Exo 20:11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
      The Mark of the Beast will be soon implemented.
      Sunday's law will finally divide the whole world into two groups. People who obey the authority of the CREATOR, and people who worship the authority of Satan through accepting the Icon of the Beast and the Beast itself. (And what exactly do these symbols mean - look what Doug Batchelor says in an Amazing Facts Prophecy seminars)
      Therefore, if you think you are standing be careful not to fall.
      Communion with Christ without obedience to Him as CREATOR is not communion with Christ at all.
      In case you did not know that you are obliged to obey all God's law because they taught you so ...
      Act 17:30 Though God has overlooked those times of ignorance, he now commands everyone everywhere to repent, (ISV)

      The Messages of the Three Angels
      1
      Rev 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
      Rev 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
      2
      Rev 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
      3
      Rev 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
      Rev 14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
      Rev 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
      Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

      “Just be clear minded and pray earnestly when that time comes. Juz a thought.“
      Time has come long ago!
      We must warn whole world now!
      While you are waiting for the end…
      maybe we should remember Jesus warnings to all of us:
      Mat 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
      Mat 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
      Mat 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
      Mat 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
      Mat 24:40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
      Mat 24:41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
      Mat 24:42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
      Mat 24:43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
      Mat 24:44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
      Mat 24:45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
      Mat 24:46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
      Mat 24:47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
      Mat 24:48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
      Mat 24:49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
      Mat 24:50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
      Mat 24:51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

    One thing no one thinks about is property taxes that by law every state requires property owners to pay atleast once per year and some states required to pay your taxes every six months.
    These taxes will have to be paid or you will get into some trouble and mostly like have your home seized. Without the global digital currency, we wouldn’t be able to pay that property tax, or the monthly HOA if that applies
    I think it is all by design

      I believe in a pre-trib rapture for the worthy but if it isn't that rev. 3 says counted worthy to escape.... it might be a greater exodus & in that case Jesus will lead the elect like in the days of Moses. The rest will be tried & killed or hiding really well to survive!

      Faith By Media it talks about the time of trouble at the end as being the day of the Lord which is a year. God would not leave you without a place of protection but it probably isn't going to be your house ,but a jail cell or cave. You might enjoy reading this quote from Maranatha the Lord is Coming Page270. "there seem to be a great confusion and conflict of armies . A messenger from the Lord stood before me and said , " call your household . I will lead you ;follow me ." He led me down a dark passage through the forest through some of the cliffs of the mountains and said , "here you are safe." There were others who had been led to this retreat. The heavenly messengers said, " The time of trouble has come as a thief in the night as a Lord warned you it would come.

      Stewseph Smallwood I don't know why you're putting it off till 2026 . God gave us how long the patriarchs lived so that we could keep track of time. We can add up the years from creation to when Abraham received the promise at 75 years of age. These genealogy tables from Genesis 5 to 11 give us 2083 years. From Abrahams promise at 75 to the exodus was 430 years based on Ex.12:40 and Galatians 3:17 . From the exodus till the start of the temple construction was 480 years based on first kings 6:1 . Based on prophets and kings page 458 the temple stood for over 400 years(she says over four centuries) . Historians agree. We can validate this 400 years with biblical dates from Kings and Chronicles :they match up with her statement. The temple was destroyed in 588 BC according to Daniel and the Revelation 1909 Page 24 paragraph two. Historians today argue 586. However, Jeremiah 52:12 and second Kings 25:8 back up the 588 date. The 2300 days began in 457 BC verified by the life of Christ and 1844 iMessage. If you use the 586 date for temple destruction then it throws off the 1844 date and it puts the death of Christ at 33 A.D. not 31AD (which is a Catholic teaching ) . It would also be inaccurate historically based on Herod's rule and death , and would invalidate the 1844 message. In conclusion ,adding the 2083 from creation to Abraham ,430 years from Abraham to the exodus ,the 480 from the exodus to the temple construction ,the 400 long the temple stood at minimum, 131 years from Temple destruction to the decree to rebuild in 457, 2300 years from the rebuilding till 1844., and 176 years from 1844 till now. That all adds up to about 6,000 which would have begun in September of this year. Six days shall thou labor and do All thy work , but the seventh day is the Sabbath. I know there is a popular ministry that is putting it off till that year ,and saying you can add or subtract from the 6000 . I disagree , God says he will not change what has come out of his lips and I do not believe he would step on the edges of or break His own Sabbath. Otherwise , Why send Jesus to die to make the law honorable ? Is 42:21 He also promises to cut it short for the elect's sake . He says I have told you the end from the beginning . Isaiah 46 :10 Study to show thyself approved unto salvation. 2Timothy 2:15 . It does not says take somebody else's word who has more degrees and pushes the I'm smarter than you message . Jesus could not use the doctors and religious leaders of his day: He used humble fisherman. Study for yourself,and pray . It will come as a thief in the night the Bible says. But God's people will see it because they are watching. The last events will be rapid ones. (Last Day Events and Testimonies to the Church).

      I think it is better for elderly to go to sleep (as Jesus called death) before great tribulation:
      Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
      A am sure that many old and faithful people went to sleep right before flood come.
      Though, you must be fully surrender to Jesus.
      And that means that you will not break any of God's commandment, including from world neglected God's 4. Commandment.
      Jesus words:
      Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
      Joh 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
      Joh 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
      Joh 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
      Joh 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
      Joh 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
      Joh 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
      Joh 14:22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
      Joh 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
      Joh 14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
      And Jesus words in last page of the Bible:
      Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
      Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
      Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
      Rev 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

Imagine with that virus how a lot of people couldn't buy and sale. It is time to think seriously about country living where we can have our own vegetables and amazing relationship with GOD. Yes it is not easy and if we start to think about money, job, and family we will never leave. However, don't forget what GOD said that we will need at the end of time " FAITH". "The just shall leave by faith". SOP said: GOD has thousand ways to answer our prayers don't we don't know anything about". There are free land, or land for a small amount, or others families asking to move with them and much more. Just pray, trust, claim the promises, show GOD that we are ready and willing then HE will do everything according to HIS will. Be patient, pray, and keep the faith.

And those of us who do serve the Creator are clinging to the million reasons why it is inconvenient to hear the voice of counsel. I am praying for insight for my own life and that of my family and friends. It is not easy. Yet one just needs to look at what the signs are pointing to...the NON RELIGIOUS signs and ask yourself perhaps I should reconsider and make haste. And yet people will say we should not rush...are the same people who forget that Jesus told us clearly to remember Lot's wife...a woman who after seeing her family saved from a mob of angry men...had to be taken by the hand and pulled out of the city. Perhaps there is a lesson that tells us when we see American cities being burned and looted by angry mobs...we should put away the idea that all is well and we should be more hasty in removing our roots from the city in which we call home.

      "There is another and more important question that should engage the attention of the churches of today. The apostle Paul declares that “all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.” 2 Timothy 3:12. Why is it, then, that persecution seems in a great degree to slumber? The only reason is that the church has conformed to the world's standard and therefore awakens no opposition. The religion which is current in our day is not of the pure and holy character that marked the Christian faith in the days of Christ and His apostles. It is only because of the spirit of compromise with sin, because the great truths of the word of God are so indifferently regarded, because there is so little vital godliness in the church, that Christianity is apparently so popular with the world. Let there be a revival of the faith and power of the early church, and the spirit of persecution will be revived, and the fires of persecution will be rekindled."

    SDA publishers changed the title that Ellen White gave to her last book. It is "The Captivity & Restoration of Israel" and it's based on Jeremiah 30:3. "Lo the days come, saith the Lord, that I will bring again the captivity of my people, Israel and Judah, and cause them to return to the land that I gave their fathers, and they shall possess it." Please also see Ezekiel 36:24-28. It's the overlooked context for the New Covenant Promise that we must have to be ready to meet Christ when He returns. More at Jer 31:8,10,16,17,31. "Fear not little flock, it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell what you have." Lk 12:32,33.

      Act 4:32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
      Act 4:33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
      Act 4:34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
      Act 4:35 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

      Why do you ask Doug, ask Jesus!
      Jesus lived in occupied country (by the Roman empire), and while he worked for 30 years, he must face with tax collectors from his own people. They steal from their own people and people are despise them. Yet, Jesus loved them also:
      Jesus and Zacchaeus
      Luk 19:1 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
      Luk 19:2 And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
      Luk 19:3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
      Luk 19:4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
      Luk 19:5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.
      Luk 19:6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
      Luk 19:7 And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
      Luk 19:8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
      Luk 19:9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
      Luk 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
      Also, Jesus must to pay taxes to Caesar also. Look what would Jesus do:
      Paying Taxes to Caesar
      Mat 22:15 Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
      Mat 22:16 And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
      Mat 22:17 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
      Mat 22:18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?
      Mat 22:19 Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
      Mat 22:20 And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
      Mat 22:21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.
      Mat 22:22 When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.

      Forget about taxes. We should be planning to live in heaven. It’s almost too late to move anyway, now. It’s going to be- run for the hills soon! Some of us will have no choice but to stay where we are. The message to move to the country and leave the cities has not been heeded. It’s too late for most. Pray and trust God . If we die, we die in Jesus. We will be resurrected in the 2nd coming of Jesus.

I actually think you may find comfort in this quote from the book Maranatha the Lord is Coming Page 270: There seemed to be great confusion and conflict of armies. On messenger from the Lord stood before me,and said ,"call your household I will lead you follow me." He led me down a dark passage through a forest then through the cleft of the mountain and said here you are safe there were others there who have been led to this retreat the heavenly messengers said the time of trouble has come as a thief in the night as the Lord warned you it would come. In the time of trouble just before the coming of Christ the righteous will be preserved by the ministration of holy Angels but there will be no security for the transgressor of God's law

      Lolitta Causey there was one place that I read that we are supposed to have enough food for about six months to a year because back in Ellen White's day they canned .We are told that if we store up a lot it will be taken from us by violent hands . Also , like Israel ,if we hoard when we open the food it'll have worms Last Day Events in the chapter titled "food and lands"

      @@Heavensoon7 That's if you believe EGW is right about that. I don't think God said that to her. I think she said that of her self. I will certainly not base my decision to have or not have canned goods on what EGW said. I will base all my decisions on the bible and the bible only. When God warned Joseph of 7 yrs of famine, they were also told to store up grain for the lean years. Store up food if you think you should and we'll see if God sends worms or violent hands to take it from you.

      Two spirit are fight over us.
      Which spirit do you want to listen? God or Satan? Both claim that their counsels are from God.
      How can you know what is God's counsel and what is Satan deceptions?

      You reminded me of this verse. Matthew 24:26-27
      “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
      I'm gonna pray about this...🥺🙏🙏🏻

      That is right. Our Savior will come at the end of the world on clouds with all of His angels.
      But god of this world will come as false Christ just as Jesus told us.
      False Christ will tell us that he change Sabbath to Sunday. And whole world will hate those who truly love our Savior and CREATOR.

      Sunset Vee The reason this verse is so relative to today is because Sister White says that the overwhelming delusion will be when Satan personates Christ and states that he has changed the day. If you go out to see him you might believe it because he's going to look and act like he is the Lord ,but the words out of his mouth do not match the Bible. Most people would not be able to overcome what their senses are telling them is true, comparatively to the Bible which they know is true.
