The Days of The Apocalypse (V)
– They Built

The actual Church needs to get back to the start regarding its foundations according to the biblical model, this is a vital necessity for us that will define our eternal life or will result in a total destruction if we allow the enemy to deceive us. That is why we need to be well balanced with the doctrine to be able to learn eschatology. Luke 17:26-30 (LBA) And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed. When we analyze in the Bible some men related to the final days, we can expect the days of Elijah to be manifested first, then the days of Noah and lastly the days of Lot. These correspond to the pre-tribulation, tribulation and great tribulation periods, although many oppose to what we have taught regarding the last days. We have taught about the events that the Bible shows regarding the final days, and we are going to give special attention to the phrase THEY BUILT. We said in prior studies that China recently built many cities that were never inhabited, in a period of 3 years they consumed more cement than the USA used in a hundred years. Many ministers refuse to warn God´s people about the period of tribulation that is coming upon the earth, therefore the coming of the Lord; as Christians we should be willing to die in order to please God. On the other hand, those Christians who refuse to die to their passions become a sign of the final days. Genesis 10:11-12 (LBA) From that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (that is the principal city). When we see these verses, we understand that Nimrod built these cities. Then we see in chapter 11 the construction of the Tower of Babel; then in chapter 12, Abraham appears, whom never built because his destiny was in a city whose architect is God. Obviously we are not saying that building is sin, but it should not be our priority. NINEVEH ILL-GOTTEN WEALTH Nahum 2:9 (LBA) Take spoil of silver! Take spoil of gold! There is no end of treasure, or wealth of every desirable prize. The Bible mentions Nineveh in various books; when we compare what they did in Nineveh with what the world does today, we see many similarities. In the economical aspect we can see how some countries are using fiscal arrangements to make legal tax free investments. The problem with this is that many millionaires are using these legal resources to evade taxes in an unlimited manner. But what this has to do with the Church? And the answer is, very much, because the antichrist is causing this chaos to be able to rule and impose the New World Order to have an absolute control over mankind.

The Days of The Apocalypse (V)

MARKET TOWN Nahum 3:16 (LBA) You have multiplied your merchants more than the stars of heaven. The locust plunders and flies away. Nowadays it is amazing how the world has increased its business; the consumerism is out of control, and its purpose is to enslave the soul of the people with many debts to cause them distress at all times. The huge problem is that the Church has become a market town in which many Christian singers have set their quota in order to perform concerts, but the truth is that someone that sings to the Lord should not charge God for it. Therefore when a minister is invited to preach the word of God, he should never set a prize for it, because it is a privilege and if we are invited is because God allows it. Obviously the Bible says that the laborer is worthy of his wages, but even if the Lord pays us, this should not be our priority, because our true payment is His presence. I Corinthians 9:15 (TLA) But I have never claimed that right, nor have I written these things that I should receive something; for it would be better for me to die than that anyone should take my satisfaction to be an apostle without salary! I Corinthians 9:15 (BAD) Nevertheless, I have never asked a penny from you. I am not writing to you so that from now on you should give me money. I actually prefer to starve than to lose the satisfaction to preach to you for free. Paul the apostle shows us that preaching is something far beyond a humanist concept. The wonderful thing about this is that to the last hour servants, the owner of the field didn´t say that they were going to be payed, but when the payment came, they received the same as the first hour servants did. The Bible says that it is more blessed to give than to receive; therefore we should cast out all pettiness from our heart to enjoy the service to the Lord. FULL OF CARELESSNESS AND FUN Zephaniah 2:15 (LBA) This is the rejoicing city that dwelt securely, that said in her heart, “I am it, and there is none besides me.” How has she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down! Everyone who passes by her shall hiss and shake his fist. Another thing that may affect us is the fun that the world offers, which so easily makes us to change our priorities. SORCERESS CITY Nahum 3:4 (LBA) Because of the multitude of harlotries of the seductive harlot, the mistress of sorceries, who sells nations through her harlotries, and families through her sorceries.
