Greater revelation of consequences. Are you listening?

On 7/15/21, and then again on 3/6/22, I wrote the following:

<begin quote>

His threshing fork is in his hand, and he is ready to separate the wheat from the husks. He will store the wheat in his barn and burn the husks with a fire that never goes out. (Luke 3:17, CEV)

Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. (1 Corinthians 3:13)

The fire will be released in ever-increasing quantities and intensities, and it will judge the hearts of men and the knowledge of men. These waves have and will consist of his word in greater plainness and quantity, followed by the consequences of it being released. 

The perverse degradation of the thin thread of human decency we have mistakenly assumed to be permanent will continue to fray. COVID is not the last or most dangerous plague this generation will see. The civil violence in the US and other places (South Africa now, for example) will increase in intensity, frequency, and duration. Military wars will break out. There will be widespread famines and starvation. In aggregate, billions will die.

The righteous will interpret all these things as the natural consequences of God pouring out greater light on the world than ever before, and will rejoice in their obtaining what good men and women throughout time desired but could not obtain.

The roar gets louder and louder.

The time has ceased where individuals can be protected and sustained by the holiness of others. They will have to use that holiness to become holy themselves. The only thing ministers today can do is obtain and transmit truth. Everyone will be judged for what they themselves are and possess, and what they themselves can endure.

As you find the light you have to be inadequate to endure the darkness that you increasingly perceive, seek more.

God always sends sufficient light before allowing greater darkness. It isn't always perceived that way because our mortal bodies more readily perceive darkness than light. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness does not perceive it. The darkness cannot stop it or conquer it or overcome it. 

Look for the clues! Look for benefits that exceed the costs. Look for strength that overcomes the darkness.

Many people disbelieved what I said. No one was saying anything like it at the time. Now, you can find much of what I said plastered everywhere you look. Who would have thought last summer that mainstream news broadcasts would be echoing phrases like "There will be widespread famines and starvation." And yet, they are. Who would have thought last summer that there would be increased civil violence around the world? And yet, there is (most recently, large scale riots in Peru, Chile, the UK, etc. Who would have thought last summer that there would be new wars? And yet, there are. One purpose of prophecy is to provide rational reasons to believe the teachings that accompany it. Hopefully, you are listening.

This morning, I feel an overflowing desire to say more to warn of what is coming. But I find that I have already said and repeated what I would write, in these two messages and in many before. 

That I might do something, I will zoom in to one specific aspect of what is reprinted above: consequences.

As the Lord sends greater light and truth to the earth--as he is doing--one effect is that the earth's inhabitants will find themselves exposed to a greater share of the full consequences of how things really are. 

In our day, you are less exposed to these consequences than anyone who has ever lived, for a host of reasons which I will not broach here and now. Perhaps one example will suffice: Consider the impact of fossil fuels and the synthetic prosperity they generate, which has saturated modern life.

Almost everything in modern life is fake: fake jobs, fake money, fake food, fake friends, fake bodies,  etc. Almost everything in modern life is a violation of the laws of cause and effect declared by God. Why would God allow such deviation? That, too, could be a long answer. To keep it simple:

30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. (Acts 17)

God allows variance in this world as part of the process. But that variance has an end, and in the end times, the world is incrementally subjected to an ever-raising bar that eventually measures against Christ himself. Those who are reconciled to that standard abide, and those who are not do not. 

In the beginnings of these waves of judgment, where the bar is beginning to be raised, modern people will find themselves increasingly subjected to more and more of reality: more and more of the true laws of cause and effect. They will find things they have always relied upon evaporate in realtime. 

As these things unfold, please understand that the longer you wait to do something about them, the harder it will be. The longer you wait to exercise your conscience and common sense, and reconcile yourself to them, the harder it will be. 

For years, I have warned you to move to a place where you can be away from other people and grow at least some of your own food. Did you listen? How much harder would it be to do that now than it was when I first said it, or when I repeated it? What things are in play now that weren't then? I tell you again: it is going to get harder, and there will come a day when it is too late. There will come a day when moving will be done at peril of your life, and with just what you can carry on your back.

For years, I have encouraged you to make career moves that make you less dependent on other people, and less dependent on a world that works as it always has. Did you listen? How much harder is that today than it was then? I tell you again: it is going to get harder. What are you going to do if you are laid off, if you experience a sudden extreme pay cut, or when you can't go to work for some unforeseen reason, or if your entire career suddenly collapses?

For years, I have warned you to store food and water. Did you listen? How much harder is it now than then? What factors are in play now that weren't then? I tell you again: it is going to get harder. What are you going to do when there is no food in your local stores? Or when the price of things is 2x, 3x, or 10x what it is now? Or when shipping is intermittent or ceases completely? Or when the water stops running through the municipal pipes? Or when you can't leave your house because of government force or common sense (in the events of a not-so-bad or the-real-thing pandemic). Or when you power goes out for days, or weeks, or forever?

For years, I have told you to share the truth with all who will listen. Did you? How much harder is that today? What consequences are in play now that weren't then? I tell you again: it is going to get harder. What are you going to do when you lose your spouse, your children, or your job for telling the truth? Do you trust God sufficiently to weather those trials?

I could go on, but I think you get the point. The time when God winks at your willful disobedience to his word through the scriptures, his servants, and--most importantly--directly to you through your conscience and reason--is closing. It is time to reconcile yourself to what you know, to obtain more of what you don't know, and to prepare yourself for increased outpourings of his justice.

12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.

13 Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. (Hosea 10)
