On the Ark

26 July 2022

If you read the Old Testament enough, you'll begin to absorb the patterns. One of them is that God sometimes says to a prophet: "I'm going to bring this disaster because of this or that sin." Stuff like that rarely happens without some kind of warning for Covenant people. And even if it does, His people have some idea of what they have to do to get a word from the Lord about it.

It happened with bad weather, famines, plagues, invasions, etc. If God didn't send a warning, it was because His people weren't paying attention in the first place. They didn't walk through the established protocols. Their hearts weren't sensitive. They were expected to always be humbly seeking the Lord's face. When they were faithful, it didn't necessarily stop the disasters, but God gave them a warning along with telling them how to face it.

That didn't stop with the Cross. What the Cross did was change the identity of whom He called "His people" and some of the protocols, but it didn't simply stop the promises to take care of us. We still saw in Acts that God still spoke through prophets to warn His people of coming catastrophes and how to handle them.

Sometimes prophets aren't necessary. Your convictions will speak on the same sort of issues all day long, every day. You'll get a personal warning for personal matters that affect you, if you are listening. And sometimes your convictions will tell you when something you hear is right for you. Your heart knows things your mind cannot comprehend.

Lots of prophets have been warning that God's wrath is coming to the USA. Our current troubles and tribulations should be no surprise. Throwing a fit about it and threatening to revolt is not the right response. If that were God's answer for you, your heart would have moved you long ago to act when few could see the threat. Satan has used his proxies to shame and scold God's people into taking the wrong action, if any action at all. It's too late; the time for action has long passed.

I haven't heard many prophets warning about the coming solar catastrophes. However, my convictions witness to the scientific arguments I've seen. I confess that I'm more ambivalent about the timing model offered. I am in no position to fully understand the arguments that result in saying that we should see a micro-nova before 2050. Still, it seems plausible to me. It's plausible enough that I'll share it with you, and make my own plans accordingly.

The same goes with warnings that the Internet will in the next few years become exceedingly hard to use the way we do now. We have what appear to me valid technological and social forecasts that evil people will seize control through laws and policies that will make it hard for us to share our faith and convictions. It's already harder than it was just five years ago. Those evil people are still here and they are not satisfied yet. I'm making plans accordingly.

During the time I still have to use the Internet as my soapbox, I'm trying to build for readers an orientation toward the Covenant. To the degree I can do this and get a few folks to embrace it, they'll be more ready for the fall of the USA and the eventual catastrophes that will completely change life on this planet.

The fall of the USA was decreed before it was first conceived in the minds of men. That's because it wasn't founded on His Word; it was the work of Satan. Could the Founding Fathers done better? I don't know; I suspect they weren't the right kind of men in the first place. I'm sure the Devil's plans excluded the influence of godly men. I'm also sure his plans include deceiving men about what was possible without the Covenant, and the people running the show now are still deceived about how it will turn out.

The coming solar catastrophes were decreed before the Creation of this world. It's cyclical, a rhythm built into the universe itself. It's the same pattern that gave us the Flood some 6000 years ago. Noah didn't likely know much about polar excursions and galactic dust clouds, but he did know what God told him was coming in terms of the Flood. Today, my convictions tell me that we can't build a physical ark to survive; what Noah experienced was a half-powered harmonic, not the full blast that we are facing.

But I am trying to build an ark of faith. In one sense, it won't matter if we get a micro-nova or not -- we need faith that is currently in short supply. We need a culture of Covenant living, even if it throbs in the hearts of only a few. Why me? I have no idea, but this is my conviction, and I'm going to obey. And while I have not heard from any other prophets promoting the same thing (except for the folks at the Radix Fidem forum), I'm also convinced that they are out there. I'm not going to make the mistake of Elijah who wasn't aware that there was a Righteous Remnant who had not yet bowed the knee to idols, and so believed he was alone. I'm going to assume God is faithful, even if I have no direct knowledge of others who are driven by the same kind of convictions.

It's just as well if you never mention this blog. I'm much more concerned whether you are turning to your own convictions the same way I have. As part of that, I hope that some of you are talking about those convictions. That's the most important part, that you live them and share them. It's not the content of my convictions that matter, but the presence of convictions and how they trump human intelligence. If I can just get that to spread, it would change the world.

That change would mean more people hearing from God and receiving His protection. It would mean people surviving the coming disasters and manifesting that faith in the new world that follows. I believe the end result will see an ice age here on earth, and it would require faith to, not just survive, but prosper in that situation. Most importantly, the knowledge of God will not perish from the earth.

Would you like a berth on that Ark?
