Dear Global Christian Warriors,
Join us on this 21 day repentance journey to study His Word on Judgments. The point is to REPENT NOW to be fully His, as His Judgment unfolds. God willing, we will also include each day a suggested issue to repent of. We hope to bless you, to edify you, to strengthen you with His Word, consistent with 2 Timothy 3:16-17: "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."
TODAY'S REPENTANCE REFLECTION:
Judgment Vial #5 ~ No More Shades of Gray
While the previous 4 Vials have been utterly horrifying, it is this one that really sends shivers down my spine. As a young child, probably the very first fear we remember is fear of the dark. In the dark, fear is multiplied exponentially. What is out there? Is something coming? Is it close but we can't see it?
Today we come to Judgment Vial #5...
Vial Judgment #5: Darkness Fills the Earth
Darkness is the absence of Light. Since Jesus Christ and His followers bring Light, at this point, there is no one speaking Truth anymore. Everything and everyone is living in a constant state of mass delusion. We are beginning to see twinges of how horrible this actually is with our "main street media." The lying has gotten so bad that we can sadly utilize their headlines now as a good barometer of "What is DEFINITELY not true!"
In doing the research for this Judgment Day, I realized that "darkness" is first mentioned in the very 2nd verse of the Holy Word of God.
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
~Genesis 1:2 (KJV)
In a "chiastic parallelism" (to be explained shortly), we see God beginning His Epic Drama by removing darkness and then wrapping up His story be allowing wicked people to return to the darkness. Let's take a look.
In Genesis, we see the "rising action" of God the Creator, moving over the darkness and creating light.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
~Genesis 1:3 (KJV)
So, if Genesis, the 1st Book, speaks of darkness “in the beginning,” in the perfect synchronicity of the Holy Word of God, we find a “chiastic parallel” in Revelation, the Last Book, with the world's kingdoms full of darkness once again:
And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain.
~Revelation 16:10 (KJV)
First, what is a "chiastic parallelism" and why is it utilized often in scripture? It is a literary device of using two parallel thoughts, often one with a rising action and one with a falling action or confirming the overall sentiment through inverse repetition. Here is a great example.
So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”
~Matthew 20:16
Here's the dictionary definition:
chi•as•mus (kaɪˈæz məs)
n., pl. -mi (-mī).
a reversal in the order of words in two parallel phrases
(Source: FreeDictionary.com)
Let's look at another scriptural chiastic parallelism:
For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
~Matthew 23:12
If the darkness found in Genesis and Revelation were to be written in one chiastic parallelism sentence it might look like this:
"God said let there be light, but mankind preferred the darkness, so darkness there was."
Wait a minute! This sounds very familiar...
Didn't Jesus say this exact thing? YES!
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
~John 3:19 (KJV)
Whoa! ...so they are condemning THEMSELVES because their deeds were evil and they REFUSED TO REPENT.
By the 5th vial or bowl of wrath, the final end is approaching quickly. Note that the 5th Angel poured out this vial of darkness upon THE SEAT OF THE BEAST...and his KINGDOM was full of darkness. So, this is the ultimate "disinformation campaign" of end time propaganda the world has ever seen. I think we are getting a frightening glimpse of what this looks like today with the COVID vaxx-of-death propaganda crusade.
Despite one lie after another by governments around the world, and massive reports of adverse reactions, the darkness just keeps coming. Here's just a few reminders of the many lies in the mass delusion campaign:
Which of these COVID lies do you still believe?
- The very 1st LIE is calling it a vaccine: This is NOT a "vaccine!" Thus the very name is a LIE.
- Masks stop the virus from spreading.
- PCR tests are reliable.
- Once jabbed you can no longer catch COVID.
- Once jabbed you can no longer spread COVID.
- COVID jabs are safe for pregnant women.
- Jabs provide better immunity than natural immunity.
- Masks, social distancing and lockdowns are successful.
- Other medical protocols do not work.
- Children won't get the jab.
- It will not be mandated.
- You only need one.
Let's look again at the "layering" affect and exponential intensity found in all of the 5th Seal/Trumpet/Vial Judgments:
Seal Judgment #5: Martyrdom of the Saints (aka "lights out")
Trumpet Judgment #5: The First Woe (Sun/Air darkened by smoke of the abyss).
Vial Judgment #5: Total Darkness
Once again, we see the increasing intensity of the 21 Judgments. First satanic forces attack the Saints...a very bad move for planet earth. Removal of the Saints is "Lights Out" for the rest of the world, spiritually speaking. By Trumpet Judgment #5, we see that the "smoke from the abyss" is so thick that it darkens the air and the sun. "We can't breathe" will surely be the mantra for all of humanity followed by the Final #5 Vial Judgment: "WE CAN'T SEE." A complete loss of sight.
“He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so that they cannot see with their eyes, and understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.”
~John 12:40 (Berean Study Bible)
Sovereign God is always in control. HE blinds their eyes, HE hardens their hearts. It is because HE already knows their hearts.
And may You forgive and act, and repay each man according to all his ways, since You know his heart—for You alone know the hearts of all men—
~1 Kings 8:39b (Berean Study Bible)
Oh, He knows them allright.....they HATE Him and they HATE Truth and they LOVE their evil deeds. The next sentence reveals the true state of their hearts:
and they gnawed their tongues for pain, And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.
~Revelation 16:11 (KJV)
Welcome to the Dark Side.
Next up: The 6th Vial Judgment...THE FINAL BATTLE: ARMAGEDDON
Stay Tuned.
It's time for us to REPENT before all hope is gone. The Lord Himself : sanctifies and cleanses us, His Bride, with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish." (Ephesians 5: 26-27)
On this day, November 28th, while we are still here on Planet Earth it is our PURPOSE to speak Truth and shed Light. Truth and Light go hand in hand. Cowards are the very first to go along with the lukewarm. There is no time to lose. REPENT NOW!…Furthermore, let both man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and have everyone call out earnestly to God. Let each one turn from his evil ways and from the violence in his hands. Who knows? God may turn and relent; He may turn from His fierce anger, so that we will not perish.”
~Jonah 3:8-9 (KJV)
******************************************************************
Brothers and sisters in Christ: You and I were born for such a time as this. We are to minister to others during the serious shakings ahead, expected in all nations. Studying the 21 signs of Judgment, our faith is built up to preach to others to find Him NOW.
To do so, we need today to build up our spiritual strength through times of private repentance. We can also share times of fellowship, sharing testimonies of repentance to encourage us further.
The fear of God is not a terror that He is against us or will strike without cause or warning. Rather, the awe, the reverential fear of God, produces wise, healthy actions, as when the midwives feared God more than Pharaoh, and saved the male children, including Moses.
During these 21 days, as your doctor and the Lord may direct, you may also wish to fast as the Lord leads. Removing old sin strongholds spiritually may also act as a blessing to detox your body physically.
When you repented to come into His Kingdom, you became a vessel filled with His Holy Spirit. We are to fear, have an awesome respect for, the Living God, not fear of man, nor fear of death.
Join us in this spiritual journey to study His Word on Judgments and to repent to avoid Judgment.
You may want to ask "where did this surface in me?" Is it a generational curse? How does it show up in my character today? If you confess that sin pattern, the Lord will forgive you. You can then sincerely repent, replacing that stronghold with His Holy Word.
A key one is found in Matthew 28: 18: " And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, 'All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth."
No need for a theologian. The word "all" means ALL.
Revelation 1: 17-18 could not be more clear: "And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, 'Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death."

GOD'S WRATH IS UPON THE WORLD.
Third Layer of WRATH Judgments: THE VIALS

#6) LIES, like boastful frogs, COME OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF SATAN, THE ANTICHRIST, THE FALSE PROPHET ~ accompanied by demonic "signs and wonders." The Battle of Armegeddon.
#7) FINAL DESTRUCTION OF EARTH BY GIANT HAILSTONES AND EARTHQUAKES ~ Cities collapse. No more mountains or islands.
IT IS FINISHED
Vengeance of the Lord for all martyrs
and slain prophets.

Would you please pray for us? And then give from a cheerful heart as the Lord leads? THANK YOU--whatever the amount you give, you'll receive a blessing--- 2 Corinthians 8: 2-4 and Luke 8:3--- and Fruit that will abound to your spiritual account, Philippians 4:17.
