[QUOTE="bèlla, post: 77624641, member: 416395"] I don't fear the one world government or new world order. I rest soundly in the knowledge I've done what I can to prepare and strengthened myself spiritually. I trust the Lord to do what I can't. Most people learn things the hard way. They won't move until stuff hits the fan. What a horrible time to discover where you stand with God. Your mettle is thin and adversity will wear you out. [I]We must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work.[/I] Many are afraid because they've squandered their time. When times were good they were distracted. As night draws near they're panicking. They know they can't make up the years but they're scared to admit it and want others to reassure them. There's nothing worse than a man who lies to himself. If you've wasted your time it's gone. You can't get it back. All you can do is start where you are. Some speak of great times, great days and related foolishness when the bible says otherwise. [I]So then, my dear ones, just as you have always obeyed [my instructions with enthusiasm], not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, continue to [B]work out your salvation[/B] [that is, cultivate it, bring it to full effect, actively pursue spiritual maturity] [B]with awe-inspired fear and trembling[/B] [using serious caution and critical self-evaluation to avoid anything that might offend God or discredit the name of Christ]. [/I] Fear (courtesy of Webster's 1828): [I]A painful emotion or passion excited by an [B]expectation of evil[/B], or the apprehension of impending danger. fear expresses less apprehension than dread, and dread less than terror and fright. Fear is the passion of our nature which [B]excites us to provide for our security[/B], on the approach of evil.[/I] Does that sound like a party or promise of good times? Does it warrant sitting on your hands or hiding in a closet? True fear, as noted in the bible, inspires us to act! The only question you have to answer is what have I done? Then consider the measure of your response in light of your concern. [I]“Blessed [with spiritual security] is the man who believes and trusts in and relies on the LORD And whose hope and confident expectation is the LORD. “For he will be [nourished] like a tree planted by the waters, That spreads out its roots by the river; And will not fear the heat when it comes; But its leaves will be green and moist. And it will not be anxious and concerned in a year of drought Nor stop bearing fruit.[/I] [COLOR=#0abab5]~bella[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
