Mike, I see your point about legalism and not being so insane about little things that you end up being a ritualistic person and then it hinders your relationship with Jesus.   It is like a wife who never kisses her husband from work, or comes to his work to bring him lunch because she is so obsessed with the details of her life that her house is spotless.   There seems to be no room for the husband, it is a "show" of a relationship.

Now I am not talking about salvation and I think that people are getting confused.   I am talking about escaping death.   And the the people that we have to look at their lives in the Bible that escaped death were Enoch, Methuselah, and Elijah.    The apostles were even killed in a brutal way, many saints have been burned at the stake in ancient times or eaten by lions.   Babies are aborted by the millions.   So I do not think of myself any better than these saints or these apostles.   And I cannot do good works to gain entrance to the rapture, to salvation, etc.   I am speaking about letting the Lord do the work and being convicted about sin, being in repentance, and wanting a relationship that is very deep with the Lord.   All of my good works will burn away, and all that He did through me at the BEMA will gain rewards. 

My parallel of my two dogs shows that when a person is not convicted about sin and keeps living in sin, that they are missing out on deepening their relationship with Jesus.   Whether or not that person is raptured and gets small rewards, whether they are left in the Valley after the rapture, or whether they are left behind to seek out true repentance, that is between them and God.   I just want people to be aware of some possibilities that could happen to them so they go into fasting and seek the Lord on where they are.   See what He says before posting to me that I am wrong.   Because I know what He told me and it was very serious.   If it was not serious, I do not think there would be so many people coming now to create websites and video accounts on so many levels to warn the people.  What they are saying has confirmed to me what the Lord told me.   We are to test the spirits. 

I am merely telling people of my journey to salvation and repentance and preparing for the rapture has played out.   Noone can mimic my journey, but maybe my story will speak to them in their walk wherever they are and they can repent.    Now many Doves may have higher positions and bigger rewards in eternity than myself, and they have not really ever sinned big time in their lives and have done mission work and dedicated their entire lives to the gospel.   They have seen hardships like people cannot imagine such as staying in tents in the desert in intense heat to be able to witness to people and suffering disease.   My aunt is one of these people, she is getting older in age and she coordinates huge mission trips.   Her last trip was to India into the most poverty stricken regions and she would sit riding on a train all night to bring the gospel to people as her hands and feet were so swollen she could not even barely walk.    She has not been a watcher per say like many of us, but she can sense just by the way things are changing that the time is near.   We had an hour conversation and I shared everything and she agreed totally.   She shared with me on her lessons from the mission field and brought me so much motherly wisdom, that I begged her to call me back.   She said that she is going to discuss the signs of Jesus return with her group and they will fast and pray.   She has already been moving in holiness for at least 20 years and her deceased husband was anointed to preach.

In the United States, the prosperity gospel and that Jesus is all love and accepts everyone has so polluted the fact that we must repent and carry our cross and abide in Jesus is not really taught.   My aunt has been all over the world in the mission field and she won't touch American Christianity because it is a different doctrine.   If we were to bring the Americanized version of Christianity to where my aunt has helped with churches, they would think that it was the wrong path.

I cannot even talk about the return of Jesus without a Christian lighting up a cigarette and telling me Jesus loves us all and if you say the sinners prayer, you go in the rapture.   Then you ask them what day and hour did you get saved, and they don't remember.   Then you ask them what did it feel when the Holy Spirit came and lived inside of you and they don't remember.   And then you ask, please tell me your testimony of how you came to the cross, and then how He started transforming you into holiness after the cross and they don't really have a testimony.   We cannot turn around down the path and going back our own way, we have to stay with Jesus our entire lives. 

I believe that people can walk away from their faith.   I have seen a man being interviewed after he was revived from death and had been to Heaven, that Jesus told him it was not his time and he needed to go back and do his will and preach.   And the man made a comment something to the fact that the people would not believe and you know what Jesus did?   He dangled him over hell and said YOU WILL DO WHAT I SAY. 

I see Jesus as a God of immense love that He died for our sins.   And coming to repentance and getting born again is the first step in salvation.   The next step is baptism of water and of the Holy Spirit.   Next we must take up our cross daily, abide in Him and make Him the Lord and Master of our lives.   When He says it is time to give up this sin, then it is time to give it up.   Now I do not believe that you repented of your sins and are walking with Jesus and He asks you to give up something and it takes you a little while to give it up, that you lose your salvation.   However He will put the pressure on and on and on and on until you are forced to either give it up to continue your walk, or you end up going back to the worse sins before you were saved, thus walking away from your faith.    I also believe that the sins He told you to stop and you were unwilling to do it, that there are consequences for being disobedient.   And sometimes it is a car accident, sometimes an illness, or a job loss to get us to repent.   But then sometimes when we keep sinning our hearts get harder and harder, so that might mean that stubborn Christians are left in the tribulation.   It also might mean that if the person was not really stubborn but maybe did not know they were sinning, or not convicted yet and kind of arguing with people all the time, that they lose rewards.

Salvation is graduating.   However how we graduate determines our position.   Now in high school I graduated with all A's and almost a 3.9 grade point average, but you know what?   I was only in the upper half of my class!    I did not graduate with honors.   I did not get a scholarship.   I was basically exhausted and wanted to take it easy and get a free ride in high school and enjoy myself.   If I had applied myself and taken those harder courses, dug in deeper, sought out things, then I would have graduated with honors.   My laziness cost me my rank. 

I am not comparing myself to Madonna.  But her in your face satanic ritual that is bombarding the internet surely puts to shame the church and the fact that barely anyone is watching the videos of Jesus coming by Youtubers.   I would say that maybe at most I see is 1,000 watches of a video.   But all these videos by these people are getting 60,000,000 views.   To say the least that souls are at stake and the watchman know what season we are in, and we should be working with all our might to sound the alarm.    And getting the information to the people however that may be.   I see the gay rights activists standing in unison on the street corners, I see the pro-choice activists and the Wall Street occupiers out in huge numbers.   But the only thing going on in the church is the arguing over the rapture and salvation.   What a division that is allowing these other groups to gain power because we are so caught up in debating rather than preparing and warning.

Warn the people!   Prepare in holiness.   We cannot assume we are ready to escape death and meet our King, we must ask Him if we are ready.   Bebeautifulyou has a wonderful rapture prayer, so does the website Tribulation Now.    I pray these all the time.   I humble myself before the King and ask Him to reveal anything in myself that displeases Him.   I am on the website SpiritLessons ALL THE TIME to be reminded of the lessons to be learned of people who went before me and know.   I have my own mentors and I seek the Lord and the Word, I am not twisting it.   But I do see Salvation as Pilgrim's Progress.  Repenting to get saved just in the nick of time to escape the tribulation with no rewards, and walking with Christ and moving towards holiness to make it to the rapture with rewards are two different things that I am trying to bring to people's attention right now.   We are about to meet the King, where do you want your eternal rank to be?   Because in this life we can learn as much as we can as fast as we can, but in eternity things are learned a lot slower....so gaining rewards in Heaven may take a person thousands of years.   Yes, we have all eternity to do this and that is the fun of it, but will a person have a sense of loss?   Oden Hetrick in his testimony of Heaven shows that those who were barely saved just have a gown of salvation, but there are others who have a robe over that.   So there will be distinctions.   The Lord has the prophets and the apostles in homes on the same street, so He does separate people.   I want to be with great people in a great place in Heaven. 

Have you ever drove by in your lifetime a very rich part of town and wished you could buy one of those mansions?   And then you end up with just a new one story home that takes care of your needs and you are thankful for it, but it could have been better?    We can see a disparity on this earth of those people who live in huts, in shacks in Brazil outside Rio, we can see people like the Formula One racing heires that bought approx an $85,000,000 home.   While on this earth we are not to be trying to lay riches up for ourselves, we can store them in Heaven and that is the good thing....would we rather want an apartment or a mansion like Versailles in Heaven?    We have the chance right now, RIGHT NOW is our only chance.   He is about to come and then it is over. 

People fight me tooth and nail over a job, or when I was in school over topping my A's.   I had several people who would sneer at me and mock me if they made a better grade than me.   It was like they were trying to rub it in, see I can be better than you.   They tried to derail me in school and the funny thing about it was I didn't care about my grades.   I was struggling with my own problems including an eating disorder, my grandparents dying of cancer, etc.   They looked at me with this naiveness that they needed to destroy my perfect little life when all they were doing was hurting me.     They did not care I was hurting, or that I was on the verge of dying, they were more worried about proving they were more right than me.

I feel the same way now.   I am hurting all the time with things in my life.  I try to share some very deep things I have learned and they are looked on as stupid.   I cannot understand this. 

Would we take a job interview so lightly, that we have the job in the bag?   This is how I feel and with such urgency for the first time in my life.   I wasted it on my career, beauty, finding a husband, having the "best life ever" that I totally missed out on Jesus.   I knew He died, it was drilled in my head as a kid.   But for the first time in my life since 2009 I know Him and He knows me.   Supernatural things happen all the time now.    How can I go back to the old way I used to think?    I have lost everything.   I lost my job, my career, my money, my bank account.   We have TSA officers who want to molest and see people nude at the airport.   They are taking everything away.    There is nothing left for me in this world except Jesus Christ and this path.

I happen to enjoy the testimony of Micahsmommy1234 who talks about OSAS is a big fat lie.   I agree with her.   Most Christians in the Western culture do not believe this.   I cannot change anyone's views.   That is not my job.   If someones wants to hear what I have to say, then they can choose to.   I choose to go this path.   I choose to believe this.   After all I have gone through, nothing anyone says really makes any difference on this subject.   However I do enjoy deep sermons on getting closer to God, and discipleship training sermons.   I also enjoy seeing watchers videos of repentance, holiness, news items, and supernatural things or dream that occurred to them. 

I really think that the posts that I received over my statement to Jennie has led me to believe that my other video page should be my main focus now.    The Lord wanted me to focus on some other things and I just felt that I had to not abandon my post so I was compelled to keep reaching out on the forums.   However it seems that after a time, that the forums go sour with people who don't seem to get what I am saying. 

Watchers, don't put all your eggs in one basket.   Don't be on just one forum, or go to one church to witness about Jesus coming, etc.    I have been on many forums and can take the heat.   However after a while when you are around the same church, the same Bible Study group, the same choir group, the same missionary team, all the time that the normalcy of you being around them makes them feel that they have an "in" with your life and can tell you what is wrong with you. 

What I know is this.  If ANY person on ANY forum who heard the words of those watchers and were left behind, then YOU CANNOT EVER take the RFID tattoo/RFID microchip/or electronic gadget in your body.   If you put it in your body while your spirit and soul are still alive inside your body, then you are condemned.   If you take it out, you will most likely end up dying immediately and going into hell.   There is no taking out the mark for salvation.   And the other thing is that the devil, after he beheads the bodies of the saints for refusing the mark of the beast, their soul and spirit goes to Heaven...but the devil will still put the mark on the dead bodies to mock those still in line waiting to be beheaded to say "see, it does not matter if you are beheaded or not, we still put the mark in you and you end up in hell anyway, there is no hope for you."   And this is a lie.   I believe the martyred saints will wait for their new bodies just like the Old Testament Saints have to wait for the rapture to reconnect with their gloried earthly bodies.   But maybe the martyrs have a special treat for them that they are the first ones to get the new bodies.   I do not know.   But I know that it is here, it is coming and I don't want to see all that is about to go down.

Don't leave your rewards, your salvation, your position, the rapture to gambling....that it will all pan out because Jesus is all love.   Don't put a dime in the slot machine expecting a big payout.   Walk down the narrow corridor if it means being all alone so that the rapture door opens for you like it did for Christian in Pilgrim's Progress....and not a trap door into Hell.
