The Latter Rain Mindset. Part [13] 02/23/2025 (Morning thought)

Everything that is said and done, every Bible study or sermon, and every evangelistic outreach should have as its core purpose to lead persons to Christ. It is not to win any argument, nor to prove any point, it is solely to lead persons to the foot of the cross. In addition, the servants of God must be careful not to make it difficult for persons to enter the kingdom of God. While we are never to compromise or water down the truth, we should do all we can by God’s guidance, to facilitate any willing person in getting baptized.

Thus, if people are found reading their Bibles in our day, searching for answers to last day events, which are occurring in natural disasters and wars, as many indeed are currently doing, but they might not be understanding what they are reading, those who are led by The Spirit of God would be able to start at the pertinent prophecies and lead persons to Christ. Let’s take a specific example so that we understand what is being spoken of.

“And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people; 7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Exodus 31:12 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, 13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths you shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am the Lord that doth sanctify you.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

The Latter Rain Mindset. Part [12] 02/23/2025 (Evening thought)

Acts 8:32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth. 33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.

One thing, and one thing alone absorbs the interest of Philip, and because he is so dead-focused on the mission, he goes to work under the auspices of The Holy Spirit, with a surgical accuracy that is worthy of emulation. The Ethiopian eunuch was reading of current events pertaining directly to salvation, because Christ had recently been crucified, and thus, he was most likely seeking a better understanding of what had taken place in Jerusalem.

The Ethiopian eunuch was reading of current events pertaining directly to salvation, because Christ had recently been crucified, and thus, he was most likely seeking a better understanding of what had taken place in Jerusalem. The place in question was abuzz, with the news of Christ’s recent death and His resurrection, and these current events probably are what drove the eunuch to revisit certain passages of scripture.

Under the latter-rain, the remnant people of God in our day should be able to begin with the current events, and lead persons to Christ, just as Philip did. And the “Current events” will at that time, include the newly minted mark of the beast, and decisions to be made either for or against the laws of God. In other words, speaking of things which might be irrelevant in our day may not tow the line effectively so as to cause persons to ask that most important question: “What must I do to be saved?”

John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
