It occurs to me that, perhaps, readers may wonder why I say that none of the existing "Christian" churches are the true Christian church. Perhaps some take offence at that... certainly they have done so in my personal experience. Nevertheless, I will make it clear, simple and obvious...
Even apart from often false doctrine, there occur no true miracles in these supposed Christian churches of the west!
Unbelief is rife in western nations even among those who take the name of "Christian". Nowhere do we see in scripture Yeshua preaching and not performing the miraculous from time to time, place to place, and nowhere do we see meaningless miracles as we often hear of these days, miracles that have no place in the kingdom of God, such as crying or bleeding statues, and other such pointless nonsense. Every miracle was specifically for the purpose of either helping someone physically or spiritually and, often, though perhaps not always, both. Nothing "advertises" the true presence of God like a miracle which is of a nature that makes sense in His kingdom and, yet, where in the western world are they?
So, I will tell you this... when a true prophet arises, we will see true miracles again, things that in God's kingdom are par for the course but in this fallen world are miraculous. Of course, lacking signs and wonders does not a false preacher or prophet make but the Lord did indicate that many would only believe if they saw signs and wonders and yet, even then, many do not believe but are hardened like Pharaoh and his magicians. Nevertheless, true signs and wonders followed the apostles in their ministries as solid evidence of the presence of God, the presence of His kingdom.
As the Lord Himself admonished the Jews:
John 10:37-38 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. (38) But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
Likewise will it be for the two witnesses and by true signs and true prophecies you shall know who they are for they are of the Lord, they are His kin, though adopted, still sons of God most High and nothing will stand in their way for the duration of their God-ordained works.
Matthew 16:17-18 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; (18) They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mat 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Dan 11:32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
We will arise and we will do exploits before the eyes of an unbelieving world for the last days are truly upon us and the end of the wicked draws near. There's no rising new world order... it is a "desperately grasping for power" old world order, like a man drowning. clutching at straws, dragging down any who get too involved into the miry depths of destruction. The end of the old "new" world order is almost upon us, upon them, and those who refuse to acknowledge the true Ever Living God, because of their arrogance and wickedness, will perish, but the righteous in Christ will live.
Do not fear man. Fear only God.
