I wouldn't conclude anything about your dog, Waiting on Him. For one thing the dream may just be your soulish imagination at work during sleep and not God, in which case it would be an awful thing for your dog to lose his home over it.

Oh don't worry LOL
That "dream" was an old joke...it's been around a long while...
Even as a skit on TV .
I think it was posted to just mock those of us who say we 'had a dream' from the Lord. :)

Over 70 prophesies tell us it will be. Plainly stated as: Amos 1, Isaiah 66:15-17, 2 Peter 3:7, +
Isaiah 30:26a informs it will come from God's storehouse, the sun. NOT a thermonuclear war, which would pollute the earth for thousands of years.

YES!! Agree... :)

Well, I logged on this morning to comment on the part of the vision concerning there eventually being completely gay churches in every city in America. We may not be there yet, but I checked, and there are now 8,562 "LGBQ affirming" churches in Northern America alone, and the number is growing rapidly.
Find an Affirming Church | GayChurch.org
Gay Affirming Christian Churches; Homosexuality & the Bible

There were a few gay-affirming churches in the early 70s, but nothing like this we see today. Thus it doesn't seem all that far fetched, given the current trends, to think that one day there will indeed be completely gay churches in every city in the US, just as the vision predicted; something way beyond the Christian imagination back in 1973.

The spirit of gradualism...the fog in water slowly heated...
If God tarries...the norm for our great grandchildren!!!!!!!!

Yes. As I was telling Bobby Jo, the incessant tendency on the part of most Christians today is to assume prophecies are coming to pass quickly, when they rarely of ever do. That whole vision posted in the OP is still set in the future, though we are starting to see the early phases of it coming to pass now, and that was spoken 50 years ago. Put two and two together, and we have a LONG time before the end comes still.
In a sense, long, but consider how slowly time seemed to pass when we were young and impatient to be old enough to do something. Now that we are quite a bit older, while our work may be in slow motion, time seems to be flying by. This too, I believe, can relate to this thing. Who is a considering it, a very young man or a very old man?

It ain't AGE. If it were, we'd stupidly believe what you post. -- It's TRUTH, and if you can't argue TRUTH, then what?!? -- You claim AGE? And if you were a woman, you'd claim GENDER? And if you were GAY, you'd claim SEXUAL ORIENTATION? And if you were ...

How about arguing TRUTH?

Yeah, I didn't think so ...

I'm assuming everyone saw one of the videos on this, but his section on occultism eventually being practiced in the church brought back memories of that crazy satanic fashion show they held at St.Andrews Anglican Church in London back in 2017.

In case someone missed it:

Off topic , but if you feel lead...pray for my eldest daughter , she is 57 and often goes with a handful of Spirit-filled ladies to the big Porn Festivals.
Not the sleazy cheap home made ones ...but the Porn Stars who roll up in their fancy cars and dripping in diamonds etc

They try to stay for 3 days , but its hard to take ( the atmosphere) They stay for 30 mins and then take turns to get outside and pray and worship quietly to get recharged before going back in.

I saw your video and thought of her...the next big festival is in LA in January. ✟

... on a CME? Really?

Perhaps there are TWO versions of Scripture, and I'm only using the one passed down from the ancients.

Bobby Jo
Give us your explanation of Isaiah 30:26a.
Also inform us how a nuke could make the moon shine bright red.

If you cared to, you would google Coronal Mass Ejections and see how NASA and other scientists warn us of the likely hit by a CME in our near future. Governments and military are busy making preparations for it, while Christians, who have the prophesies vividly describing this forthcoming event; are a dumb as rabbits about it.

DW died in 2011. He didn't live in the last days, so couldn't have had a true understanding of the Prophetic Word. Daniel 12:4-10
How are you are able to be certain of this? Have there been no prophets after Daniel unto this day who have understood? Has God not spoken to anyone to reveal any of these things? Are you a prophet?

Keraz, you're so funny. You pick ONE which I'VE ALREADY ANSWERED*, but can't answer ANY. But that's ok, we all know that "solar wind" causes 1/3rd of people to DIE; 1/3rd of fish to DIE; 1/3 of trees to BURN; and mountains and islands to MOVE.

* "Soon to be fulfilled Prophesies [sic]", by Keraz, Post #47
Please note that the correct spelling is "Prophecies", which can be a "typo", -- but really?!?​


Silly people with silly doctrines,

I am not a prophet. My task is a messenger, a herald of the Prophetic Word, as my name means. Strongs H3745
I present the plain Words of the prophets in easy to read articles.
The problem that most have in understanding those Words, is their beliefs in false teachings, that leads them astray.

Daniel 12:19 says that in the last days a few people will understand what God has planned to happen during the final few years of this Church age. For the rest; Isaiah 8:16, Amos 8:11013, Jeremiah 6:10, Isaiah 29:23-24

Sure will, Helen. I'm actually battling with some things atm, but I'll sure to include her in my prayers.

Churches in the nude is happening! Its sad to know that society is more degenerate. DW was right!
Congregation worships in the nude - CNN Video
This is not what Dave W prophesied. He prophesied this would become normal, and we're no where near seeing that. And again, I'd love to here from anyone else who read this in the 70's or 80's, what was your idea of when this would all be happening?

And was his vision something that was all coming together? Or that individual elements like this instance would happen over the next century?

Much love!

If David Wilkerson [DW] was not walking in the ways of men with his prophecy, but being led by the Bible as the Holy Spirit brought it to Life within him, then would it not be the Word of God? Would it not be the Holy Spirit using him as a mouthpiece?
How can you know actually?

There is a way. What is it?

It spreads fear, I know that. But about warning us the end will come, that society will continue to degenerate, all these things, the Bible teaches us all of that.

The fear of which you speak may relates to the fear our old man has of the calamities we see described in the scriptures and touched upon by DW and by any true prophets of God. If, however, we were always on God's side, what would there be to fear? Do we walk as Caleb and Joshua walked toward Canaan Land or do we walk as the remaining masses of natural Israelites who feared the giants, as did the other 10 spies, more than they trusted almighty God who has never lost a battle?

I've seen many children of God, who do not know their Bibles well, brought into fear by false prophets. That's why God tells us that we don't need to be afraid of them. Because it happens.

Yes, we need not fear. And we need to know how to respond to prophecies, especially those who think they are Isaiah or Ezekiel or Elijah, or the modern day counterpart.

Not to say DW thought that. But the same rules apply, don't they? If someone gives a prophecy like this, don't we hold the same thing as in the OT times?

Much love!
