Hi everyone,
I am a new member on the thread and have been following the unsealed website for a couple of months now and it is certainly a blessing as well as all the linked information that is supplied as well. Being recently returned back to faith (and clearly for good reason) doubt is unfortunately not always the easiest thing to overcome since I am not as familiar with scripture. The things that are happening in the world now are clearly like nothing any of us have ever experienced. And since there have been so many wrong in the past it is easy to have this doubt. This website makes it very clear in all honesty, that we really do not know what is going to happen for sure (although you guys have some very very compelling evidence that something is certainly brewing and God is telling us to watch!). There is lots of evidence that there is something, but we do not know for sure. So to ease my doubt, I have been praying about it. The Lord offered some very clear and obvious insights and clarity that I feel we must keep in our minds and hearts when we are feeling doubt and uncertainty.
1. What is so very different about this Great sign as a very clear and proven sign of Gods warning and possible rapture vs. others from date setters, Mayan Calendar, Y2K or other doomsdayers dates (not saying this is doomsday, just hear me out)
- There is no mention of this on the news at all. Nothing, not a whisper. Some (very few) online mainstream medias have shared a couple of things, but for the most part, nothing. The only things that plagues the news (still for crying out loud) is Trump and the Russians, or adding some other letter to the LTGB (not even sure if that is right) or how their "rights" are not being met and how 5 year olds should be able to choose their own genders (disgusting and sad and prayed for all the time). Before when such an event as Y2K or the 2012 Mayan Calendar hype, it was allll over the news for months beforehand. People were losing their minds over these "end of days." Even my own mother at Y2K stock piled our basement with huge bags of flour and sugar, bottled water, and canned foods. We seriously at that crap for two years afterwards because nothing happened on Y2K. Why did nothing happen? Because it was not in the bible and it was not Gods time. Everyone listened to man instead of reading what the bible said. It was confusing because I also believe there were parts of the bible that had not been revealed to us in understanding like they have been in the last 5-10 years. But ultimately Satan has fooled a lot of people with false end of days and now people just think it is another thing that just happens. I also believe this ties into the "coming as a thief in the night" scripture, because again the majority of people are not preparing or getting ready for anything, because they have no idea. Everyone is going on about their daily business, have no clue whatsoever, or are getting sucked into false end of days schemes and waste their time thinking of that. Satan has once again fooled MANY MANY people with the democratic extremism and their loud voices that is backed by the media and the false and ridiculous end of days ideas/conspiracies that the majority falls for.
All this stuff about planet x/Nibiru, fake sun, fake sky, hole in Antarctica, Secret continent in Antarctica, the official Anonymous page with their supposed finding secrets of Nasa being in contact with Aliens, Mandela Effect, Cern breaking into demonic dimensions (I do believe they are evil, but no man is going to release demons unless God wants that demon to be released), and I could go on and on. No wonder no one is paying attention to this! I have never seen so many different end of the world/conspiracies happening like I have in the last few years. Satan is working on super overtime folks, he is very aware of his short time and is literally busting his evil butt.
2. When has there ever before been such a clear and straight forward sign?
Never (at least to my knowledge) - The Rev. 12 sign is so straightforward, it is almost silly to believe there is no significance in it. You guys on this website and many others blow my mind multiple times a day on what you discover in scripture and tie to current world events. The numbers that align, dates, Scripture paralleling in multiple books, the current events of the world and how they relate to scripture, there is just so so much! There was a comment made about God be a cruel Jokester, and I thought, no He is one serious dude. What he says happens, and he means it! He does not fool us, no would I believe He would allow such a mass understanding of the scripture to be something that is misleading. He was dead serious when he would say before that he was going to destroy or do something and never backs down on his word. Ever.
3. The quietness of so many churches.
-In recent years I have noticed a trend (literally a trendy trend) in many churches. While they praise God and Jesus gospel and the one I currently attend with my mother is a good church, they are asleep for the most part. Many churches focus are more on trendy gospel, life or church groups, and not on the word of God, prophecy, and the gospel! Prophecy is like a no no subject or something the pastors believe we are far away from. It is hard to find a church around me that even comes close to preaching prophecy. It is like a taboo now (which is sad). The church I attended as a child and young teenager was passionate about prophecy and the rapture! Sometimes the pastor took things a little out of context, but the Lord was speaking through him to tell us that we are in the end times. I looked into the church to go back, but the pastor from my childhood has retired and there is a new, younger pastor who does not seem to hold the passion of the former pastor about these things. At least according to their website. Many of my own family who used to be so passionate and had great debates over end times events and scripture no longer discuss these things, at all. Many have gotten into things that I cannot wrap my head around and are all post trib believers and not one thing will sway their ideas and opinions against it since some expert said it is so. Some even say they believe in a 4 or 5 point system into getting into heaven and God has already predestined who does and does not go to heaven, so there is no sense in trying to tell others of the gospel ( I literally walked away out of anger from that one and prayed for some help in cooling off because all I want to do is tell everyone of Jesus and the utter non caring attitude this was said in with was really sad and disappointing!)
I have one uncle who speaks of prophecy and the rapture and everyone thinks he is nuts. He is pretty loud and downright rudely blunt sometimes, but many times he is right and always backs up what he says with scripture, not a mans opinion. I did not understand for a while why so many in my family had grown so quiet and reclusive of their faith and now I know. I actually kinda want to shake them a bit and wake them up! They have closed their eyes though. Thanks to some helpful comments on this site and this forum, I have been doing what I can for them, praying about it.
So these are just my thoughts. I hope they help anyone who is feeling unsure or just down right lost. There is a reason it is called the Blessed Hope, you have to be aware and hopeful!
