Prophecy: I liken my flesh to being an antichrist of sorts. Maybe this is a test from the Lord.

In the book of Revelation, we learn that Jesus offers warnings of the apostasy that was soon to come for the churches. These warnings included forsaking your first love, tolerating global cults, tolerating immorality, the church being without conviction (dead), and the worst – becoming lukewarm in your faith.

There are many times that I wake up “feeling” dead in my convictions. It is my flesh waging war against the Spirit. Oddly, I liken my flesh to being an antichrist of sorts. I have concluded that our Creator leaves our flesh in place after salvation to test us in what we profess as Truth to being authentic beliefs. Today, I accept the words, “I test whom I love.”

APOSTASY

While He was firm in his corrections to the Seven Churches, Jesus offered a solution to each. However, the solutions were unpleasant in nature – repent, remain faithful, judgment, endure through the End Times, wake up and strengthen what remains, and turn from indifference.

The truth is, all those who get sucked into the apostasy are not authentic indwelt Christians. It is proof that the Holy Spirit does not reside in the “believer” to provide immediate discernment of a lie versus Truth – the Life of Jesus. Keep in mind that an unbeliever does not fall into apostasy. You can’t fall away from something you never believed to start with. This particular ideation only applies to those who confessed belief in Jesus’s Life and His absolutes and then turned their back on the basics of the organic Gospel. Their “conversion” was based on guilt, fear, or pressure to “pray the prayer of salvation.” After the guilt and fear have passed, they reexamine their decision using an unsaved mindset. Of course, this results in deconstructing their “faith.”

Overall, the apostasy includes the masses that followed the principles of Christ while never receiving the indwelling Christ Himself. The manipulated conversion soon converts to a deconstruction of the Life and beliefs of Jesus, resulting in rejecting Christ. Self-effort followers always lose in the end. 

Apostacy is needed before the Rapture and the Second Coming of Jesus occur. Christians tend to “freak out” when so-called “believers” renounce their faith. Paul communicated this important doctrine when he was addressing the Thessalonians.

Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God. (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4)

The lawless one, the Antichrist, cannot be revealed until apostasy has its way. In the great apostasy, the masses shift their loyalty and beliefs in Jesus to that of the Antichrist. I can assure you that the Antichrist can not take his seat in the Holy temple of God until the apostasy has completed the mission of separating the goats (fake Christians) from the sheep (indwelt born-again believers).

The passage clearly warns us of several things. Do not be shaken in your beliefs. Don’t lose your composure by temptations of disturbing spirits, messages, or writings from others who do not teach and preach from God’s absolute Word. In addition, the Day of the Lord will not come unless the apostasy comes first. The apostasy is what reveals a lawless society, the man of lawlessness – Satan, who forces the apostasy victims to dump or deconstruct beliefs in Jesus to shift their loyalty to the Antichrist. The motive of Satan propagating the apostasy is showing the motive of the one behind such a movement.

When will this apostasy occur? Folks, we are in it. In believing the apostasy is upon us, we can safely project the Rapture is right around the corner. Once Jesus has separated the “goats from the sheep,” it will be finished, AND the Rapture will ensue.

Let’s face it. The Body of Christ, His Church, has become indulged in self-proclaimed options. In many respects, the Church is more about money than that of ministry. Either the churches are begging for money or indulging in mega wealth that has spoiled and shifted the church into a lukewarm mindset.

Let me share a word of prophecy the Lord gave me in the wee hours of December 13, 2021.

“Stephen, My people have run astray. I am calling on you at this hour. Proclaim My words to these degenerate people. The hour of My Son is soon to come. I will release the winds of destruction upon the earth, torments upon flesh, and hopelessness upon those who dispute My commands.

I am the Great I Am. I am set to make an object of horror among all the nations of the earth. I will now separate My people from the goats of the nations. They will suffer in their souls' sorrow and despair. They call me their God but have forsaken Me with their silence. These people shout out My name but continue to go backward. So, today, I will begin to stretch out My hand against all those who give Me lip service while defying My ways. The days of My relenting are over! For they did not repent of their ways. They did not listen or incline their ears but stiffened their necks in order not to listen or take correction.

I have released My enemy to take away their children. I have begun to take away their homes. The fathers of the nations grow silent. Their children hate them. For the men have fallen into the sins of harkening to women. They have forsaken the calling of protecting My covenant within their households. My enemy is moving to dominate the world with his great whore. Stephen, stand against this. Speak out against his deplorable deeds. I will give you a few faithful men to proclaim these words. Teach these men My ways. Those who have ears to hear will listen.

I, the Lord your God, will shelter you in these final days. Blessed are you who trust in Me, whose trust is Me. Remember, I am the Living Tree of Life planted by the living water that extends its roots into My Son's Bride.    

I have released a sword of famine & pestilence upon the nations. Diseases will plague their places of refuge. The flesh of man will be dried up like a rotten fig. They will beg for deliverance but will find no rest for their souls. Their lands will multiply their plagues and harden the hearts of their people to stand against Me. I will make them a terror and an evil for all the nations of the earth. These people will turn on My people. Children will rise and kill their parents. Brother will turn on brother, and all nations will come against My Holy place. Soon, Stephen, I will cause the nations to drink from My final cup of wrath. Prepare the people for these final days. Proclaim these words, 'The Lord will roar from the high places and utter His voice from His Holy habitation; He will roar mightily against the nations. He will shout with fierce anger. The Lord, thy God, will soon judge all who did not honor Him.'  

Awaken the Bride of Christ. Few have oil in their lamps. My Son will only gather those who have made themselves ready on the day I gather them. Many are wolfs who act and dress like sheep. Do not be fooled by them. The gathering is upon us. Soon, I will release My Son to come for His Bride. Today I am separating the goats from the sheep, testing those who claim My Son. Those who have the oil of My Spirit shall endure to the end. Those who do not have the oil will be cast aside. I am immovable in this, Stephen. Remain steadfast in what I have revealed.

I have given you many people, have I not? It is time to shout the final warning of My Holy place. Remain faithful to the end. You are as my beloved Jeremiah. Learn from him. I am about to clamor to the end of the earth because I have a controversy with the nations. I have entered into judgment with all flesh. The sword of the people shall be My door to finish all things unto the end.” 

The sad part of this story is that Jesus said He would spit the lukewarm believers out of His mouth. Folks that means remove their candlestick from the altar of God, which indicates they were removed from the Book of Life. Putting it bluntly, cannot join Him for eternal salvation.

Years ago, while on a prayer retreat, God spoke – “Stephen, I have called you to awaken the church of Laodicea, the lukewarm church.” In this, you will discover the motive for producing the End Times Documentary.
