You know what makes me saddest? Well, maybe not the VERY saddest. But I get disappointed when I log onto Unsealed and don't see much new activity. I try to read every single post on the web site and respond to a lot of it. You know what makes me happy? Seeing the great group of people we have on here, who love the Lord and are kind and loving to each other. It is really great interacting with y'all as we ponder through these different issues and look forward to out Lord's appearing. I'm very thankful for Gary, Greg, and the others who maintain this site. Look up, everyone!

I get disappointed when I log onto Unsealed and don't see much new activity. I'm so excited to read new posts with all the latest discoveries and theories! I, too, am reading everything that pops up here on the forum, and it is a true test of patience for me when I see no posts! And I, too, greatly appreciate all my brothers and sisters in Christ who are here at the forum. I've been a member of several forums in my lifetime and found a great deal of strife between members with competing views, and I can say that this Unsealed group is a tremendous, refreshing blessing to me. It's really great to be able to share ideas, speculations, investigations, and so on in an atmosphere of Christian love and respect for one another. Thank you, members of Unsealed! God bless you all!
Now, get busy! I'm waiting to read your posts!

Thank you both! And I completely agree Jim.
One thing I was recently reminded of was that the first time Christ appeared there were only a very, very few who were aware:
Mary Joseph Magi Anna John's parents Simeon Some shepherds
I don't think there is going to be much difference this time around. Most in the Church are asleep and/or distracted by the things of the world. Of those that are watching, half don't believe in a rapture or believe it won't happen for years. And of those that think it might be soon, probably the majority of those think it is impossible to figure out its season.
I'm glad to be watching with you all.

No new posts? How did that happen?
How are you feeling today, watchmanjim? Are you and your family on the mend?

DOing a good bit better today. My boy and I got some sawmilling done, finished the order for the first customer. It was an ordeal--won't try to explain. I'm very thankful for my son finally being strong and responsible enough to be a real help to me in my days of decreasing health. Hey, I'll call it old age. I may only be 39, but I feel like 79, and if this is the last year we have, I'll be happy to call this the year of my aged decrepidness.

I'm glad to hear things are improving, even if they are still difficult. Hey--39 is just a young sprout, so hang in there! Our rest is coming soon!

I'm 39, but sometimes it feels like 39 lashes. :-)

Glad to hear you're doing better! You had people praying for ya!
Yesterday I attended the Walk For Life near Dallas and had my cell phone stolen, so had to deal with all that craziness (:

Sorry to hear that, Gary! That is always a major ordeal. I had my cell phone "Perish utterly, and that without remedy" a few months ago and have had to rebuild all my contacts and so on, in my new phone.

Sadly I discovered my phone was really stolen when I got home. I was able to log into Google and they have a nifty phone tracker built in. It even pinpointed to within three houses. Didn't ultimately do me any good though. The phone is no big deal... it's just all the password changes and dealing with At&t. But alas, this may not matter much in a few months (:

3 more you can add to the list of those aware of something special going on inside Mary. John the Baptist jumped from inside his mother's womb and of course his mother Elizabeth and father.

Good point! Welcome to the forum, preacher! The account of Zechariah and his doubt is an interesting account to be sure. As a priest, fully familiar with the Pentateuch, once he got over the fact that an angel was actually talking to him, he should have believed everything the angel said. After all, he knew that God gave Abraham and Sarah a child in their old age, and if he believed that, he should believe that God could do the same for himself and Elizabeth! But even though an actual angel was speaking to him, he didn't believe. Funny how that works--at the beginning of every new covenant or dispensation change, it seems that there are always those who believe, and those who struggle with believing! Are you a pastor of a church, Preacher?
