Hi everyone at five doves!
I read with concern the 12 year old boy from one of the recent posts who was shown Heaven. He was shown that the wedding banquet was ready but the bride is not ready. I would like to add on this. Unlike the bridegrooms of the world who may not be exactly aware of the praparations going on in the brides house and may thus come unexpectedly to the bride whether she is ready or not our Bridegroom Jesus Christ knows very well how much we are prepared to meet Him. He knows even our hidden secrects of our hearts. I totaly agree that He is looking down and He sees His bride is unprepared. A big portion of the Church of Christ today belongs to all Churches mentioned in Revelation with only a few belonging to the READY BRIDE, PHILADELPHIA.
Therefore Christ has cautioned everyone of us to look at ourselves and see where we stand at the moment before He returns.
 
To the Church of Ephesus. Rev. 2:4-5. Nevertheless i have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else i will come quickly, and remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
 
2nd Peter 2:20-22. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beggining. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But is happened unto them according to the proverb, The dog turned to his own vomit again and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mud.
 
Matthew 5:20. For i say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and pharisees, ye shall in no case enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
 
Matthew 7:13-14. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few be that find it.
 
Matthew 7:15-16. Beware of false prophets...Yea shall know them by their fruits...
 
Matthew 7:21. Not everyone who calls me Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven but only those who do the will of my Father who is in Heaven."
 
2nd Peter 3:9. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise as some count slackness; but is lonsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
 
The word of God also says that for His(God's) own name's sake He delayeth His wrath.
 
God is giving mankind some more time to make things right with Him, for He knows very well how chaotic it shall be for those who will be left behind, oooh! we have a merciful God.
 
But always remember that the Faithful servant is patient and waits for his Lord but the wicked servant says in his heart that his Master is delaying in coming and begins to live recklessly.
 
ISAIAH 3:10. TELL THE RIGHTEOUS IT WILL BE WELL WITH THEM, FOR THEY WILL ENJOY THE FRUIT OF THEIR DEEDS.
 
I LOVE YOU ALL AT FIVE DOVES AND I CANT WAIT TO MEET YOU ALL BESIDE THE SEA OF GLASS IN THE COMPANY OF LORD JESUS CHRIST.
 
Even so come Lord Jesus!
