(Transcript) 9 - Grand Entrance By Fire
This is Trevor Davis.
I am sounding the alarm! This is
the latter end of January 2009. Over
the last couple of weeks, we have been discussing the message that I call, “The
Alarm”, because the LORD is saying to ‘sound the alarm’. To call His people to attention to the King
Lord Jesus Christ. And, today we are
going to discuss the second coming of Jesus Christ and talk about the serious ramifications
of being unprepared, for this glorious entrance of the Kingdom of God as our
Lord Jesus Christ comes as King and victor and defeats His enemies, every
single one of them!
I come from the United States. I have lived here my whole life.
And I must report that, for the most part, the United States is
experiencing an apostasy. A nation that
had been beloved of the LORD blessed prospered given peace, prosperity,
blessing, and for the most part, for generations actually, this nation has
refused the voice of the LORD to be a holy people, godly, thankful before the
LORD for His wonderful blessings that He has given to it.
As we read in the scripture the ancient Israel and Judah
that were God's beloved people, when He blessed them, and was their God, He
called them to be separate from false gods and idols. God would have to send prophets and ministers to speak His heart
and mind to the people because they had turned from Him. They had a stiff neck and turned their head
from the LORD and closed their eyes and closed their ears; refusing to repent
before the LORD. Their heart became
calloused and hard. But yet they would
have a religious system. They would go
through the motions. They would quote
the scripture. And I dare say, this is
what we see taking place for the most part in the United States of
America.
This is why I am going to the world. I am going in the name of Jesus Christ to
preach His word. To prophesy His
word. To call the people to submission
to the King Lord Jesus Christ. It does
not matter whether you are a politician, a businessman, a Christian or a
non-Christian. You are to submit to the
Lord Jesus Christ. And if you do, you
will be blessed. But if you resist Him,
you will be crushed and ground to powder.
This is clearly out laid for us in the scripture. So I come from a nation that is in apostasy that
has said, "I will take the blessings of God, but I will not take God
Himself. And I will not walk in ways
that are pleasing to Him.” This is what
this nation has said by its laws, by its society, by its media, by its articles
and writings. This is how they raise
the children. Now we see as it was
written by the prophets, ‘cursed children’, children that will not hear the
word of the LORD--- lying children.
You need to read Isaiah Chapter 1 and Isaiah Chapter 30,
for example. It is a very sad thing. It is a very sad thing when God looks at
children and finds such displeasure. But
we have children today, taken in by the sensuality, the iniquitous adulterous fornicating
spirit of this age--of this nation. And
the children admire harlots and seductresses.
It is a very sad thing. And
children, instead of reading the scripture, read sorcery which is absolutely
forbidden by the Holy God Almighty. It
will bring a snare, a snare to your family, and a snare to your
generations. This is why the LORD is
saying to “sound His Alarm”. To call
you to seek His face. Do not be part of
the status quo. Do not be part of just
something that goes by an appearance of godliness. Love the LORD with all
your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your
strength. Be part of that which follows
Jesus. Not only bows the knee, but bows
the heart before Him. To be pure, ready
for Him, because He is coming back. And
as you do that, you will find that your love for the Lord increasing, as your
passion for the Lord will be increasing, because you will find the iniquities
of this world not bonding to your life.
Remember that iniquities and sin is death, the very opposite of God,
because God is life! God loves you, and
I want to talk to you about this!
This United States, ladies and gentlemen, has influenced
the entire world, and defiled the entire world, influencing business practices,
cultures. And the religious world is
influenced by an erring pompous corrupt religious system. We have been talking in times past how this
so parallels what Jesus and also the prophets have experienced. A religious people in appearance, that use
the scripture, believe in God, believe in the Messiah, but actually oppose the
truth of God; what He is saying and doing.
God loves you so much, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, and whoever
would believe on Him would not be perishing but would have everlasting
life. God did not send His Son to
condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. But there is a condemnation in the earth,
ladies and gentlemen, and that is because men, women, and children have loved
darkness rather than light.
You do not want to hide from the light of God, because the
light of God will expose your sin and iniquity. But the good news is that God will cover that iniquity. God will cover the sin through His Son Jesus
Christ. The blood of the Lamb, an
innocent one. So a great cost has gone
out to you, and that is the death of our Lord Jesus Christ. And He was resurrected and seen by over 500
people as is testified in the scripture.
Men actually put their hands in Jesus' wounds because He was pierced for
our sins, and their hands in His side. Jesus
was not just a phantom spirit. He actually
had bones and flesh. He shed His
blood. Do you believe this? How do you appreciate Jesus Christ
today? That is the issue.
I want to read to you what the apostle Paul said in Second
Thessalonians, Chapter 1 verse 3:
“We are bound to
thank God always for you, brethren, as it is proper, because that your faith
grows exceedingly, and the charity of every one you all towards each other
abound, so that we ourselves glory in the Churches of God, for your endurance
and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure, which is a
manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy
of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer. Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation
to those that trouble you, and to you that are troubled, rest with us, when the
Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming
fire, taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the Gospel
of our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall be punished with everlasting destruction
from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power, when He shall
come to be glorified in His saints, and to be admired in all them that believe,
because our testimony among you is believed in that day.”
The Lord Jesus Christ, ladies and gentlemen, is coming,
and He will come suddenly. And He will
come suddenly like a thief in the night.
People that were unprepared, even as a home is robbed at night, or in
daytime when you were unprepared, so is likened the coming of the Lord Jesus
Christ. But to those that love Him and
are seeking Him, and have a heart filled with His Word and Spirit they are not
surprised by the coming. They understand
the seasons of the Lord. But to those
that are oblivious, and just playing a game with God, or even hate God, comes
suddenly the Lord in great fire and power and majesty. There will be weeping and gnashing of
teeth. In fact, Isaiah 2 talks about
the glory of God being manifest in the last days, and the glory of God will
descend upon the mountains and the hills and the oaks, and the trees, and the
ships, and those that are wicked and are not prepared for the Lord will run and
hide in the holes in the earth, and the rocks and the jagged rocks, and will
cry out to be hidden from Him that sits upon the throne, and from the wrath of
the Lamb of God!
I read this on purpose, because this is a very serious
thing! You need to be ready for the
coming of the Lord. We were talking
about the Father, the cost, giving His Only Begotten Son to redeem the world
from sin, because all of us have sinned!
We have all come short of the glory of God!
With sin comes death; but the gift of God is eternal life
in Jesus Christ for those that believe in Him.
But ladies and gentleman, even under the administration of the prophet
Moses, it says in Hebrews, Chapter 10, verse 28,
"He that despised
Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses." Now listen to
this, this under the new testament, that fulfilled by the Lord Jesus Christ, of
how much sore punishment suppose ye, shall He be thought worthy, who has
trodden underfoot the Son of God., and has counted the blood of the covenant
wherewith He was sanctified, an unholy thing, and is done despite unto the
Spirit of Grace?”
Listen, this scripture, Hebrews 10, verse 29 is showing
what great punishment a person will encounter if they have trodden underfoot
the Son of God, and counts that the blood of Jesus Christ is some unholy
thing. In other words, there are those
that have professed faith in Christ in that first century that later renounced
Christ. And there are people who have
done that throughout history. Shame,
shame, shame! And woe, woe, woe, unto
those that do that! But consider this,
the word unholy has to do with common, something defiled or casual, or
something just typical or common, not something special or unique. Because something that is holy is separate
and distinct. It is for God, and it is
separated.
There are those today that profess faith in Jesus Christ,
say that Jesus is their Lord, and do many religious things, but walk in
inequity, walk in adultery, fornication, are lying, are proud, arrogant, and
are harsh with other people, and do not consider the needs of other people, that
are not like Jesus; but yet, they will say they are Christian, and they will
sin upon sin, upon sin, and selfishness!
But they just casually will say, "Oh, Lord, forgive me."
I dare say that that is misusing the Lord Jesus
Christ! That is trodding underfoot the
Son of God! And counting the holy great
sacrifice of Jesus Christ on a cross as some common thing. You don't want to treat the Lord's blood
like that! You must have respect for
the Lord of glory for His precious life!
The only begotten Son that the Father has given to redeem us from our
iniquities.
Now listen! Let us
continue to read Hebrews, Chapter 10, verse 30,
"For we know
Him that has said" - this is speaking of God Almighty - "vengeance belongs unto Me, I will
recompense, says the LORD.' Again, the
LORD shall judge His people. It is a
fearful thing to fall into the hands of a living God."
That is New Testament ladies and gentlemen. This is written in the time of grace. God does not change. He is the same yesterday, today and
forever. You do not want to play a game
with the LORD. You do not want to be
part of the status quo. You do not want
to be having the influence of an apostate religious world that was heralded and
seeded and brought forth fruit in the United States of America now being
dispersed through the world in defilement.
As we read the scripture, we see that the iniquity of the world will
increase and abound and the iniquity of the gentiles will increase until it is
full until the LORD says, "Enough is enough! I am sending my Son in flaming fire, to take vengeance upon my
enemies. But I am revealing my
salvation to my glorious ones that have had faith and obedience in my
name."
You should choose this day, who you will serve! Choose on the LORD and live before Him!
