I'm just going to freestyle some thoughts for you about this upcoming eclipse, and all the doom porn that has flooded all my feeds the closer we get to April 8th.
I have been noticing a recent influx of rapture/end of days judgement/second coming of Jesus articles and youtube videos popping up. It has gotten so bad lately that I am flooded with different theories every day. We have always been expecting and waiting for the End to come, but with this particular eclipse there are more people thinking the rapture will happen during this eclipse than i have ever seen, while others believe it marks the beginning of judgement on us here in the USA, or the beginning of war for us. As well as many other end of days theories concerning it.
I am not one to usually feed into these predictions. Usually when everyone is screaming the rapture is coming I know we are definitely not getting raptured. Anytime people start chanting "this is the end," I know it's not; because no one knows the hour in which it will come. So the more people predict it, the less I'm likely to feed into it.
But, I gotta say, as far as signs go, they are firing off like fireworks on the fourth of July. There are Signs everywhere.
Which has me thinking...
Now, I am not saying I'm buying into the theories circulating right now. I'm just saying, that with all of these things coming together the way they are, something big is about to happen.
Be it, "staged" or real. Seems to be a lot of build up to something. (I'm leaning more towards something being staged in the near future. Looks as if its being perfectly set up for us imo)
Usually it's nothing. Usually these events occur, and after their over, and Jesus hasn't raptured people up yet, then we all just move on to the next end of days catastrophe to make our little predictions.
Something feels different with this one though, and I wanted to see if anyone else, who isn't a "the end is nigh" crackpot was feeling it too.
I'm not even sure I believe in a (secret) rapture at all. At least not in the way it was taught to me growing up. The scriptures just don't match up for me the way others see the rapture happening.
I don't believe the hype, but at the same time something does seem different, and it does feel like things are stirring up to something big in our near future, and I do believe this eclipse is a starting point to the 'next stage' of the end of all this.
I for one will be staying home that day.
Just incase some of these theories come to fruition.
I even saw a theory this eclipse will do something to the people who took the jab and will be activating zombie mode in them after the eclipse! Lol with all this craziness, who knows though, eh?
So, what do you all think? Anyone else feel the energy building up to something? Anyone else a wee bit nervous? So much hype out there, it's hard not to.
Thanks.
Has God told you to repent?
He has told me.
I have a few things I need to do much better in (more time in prayer, the Scripture etc) and I feel God screaming at me to get offline and spend more time with Him.
I don't believe in the rapture... I'm an Amillenial, I believe Jesus will return someday, but it won't be preceded with millions of people skipping out on the persecution of the church in the days prior to the second advent. (That's silly)
But people who are seeing this as a sign it really might be...
But if it's a sign, it's telling us to repent... All the blood moons and the eclipse from 2014-2017 were warnings for the Church/Israel and this eclipse is the warning for the rest.
I believe it's time for everyone to get right with God.
This doesn't make it the end necessarily, but it does mean if we aren't right with God we won't act in the right way to the events we are all about to face.
The above sentence is the takeaway here.
