For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing .

The Democrats need to stop President Trump from further helping to advance Israel as a sovereign nation. The Two-State Solution will be implemented by Antichrist during the time of Jacob’s trouble.

But, I will admit that such an assortment of twelves in one place makes you think that perhaps there is a deeper significance to it occuring.

How The Followers Of The Roman Catholic Church Are Blinded To The Fact That Their Religion Is Really Old Testament Idol Worship
When I was a lost Roman Catholic, it seemed like the most natural thing in the world to say a prayer to St. Jude when something seemed hopeless, or to St. Anthony when I lost something and couldn’t find it. Of course, as a good Catholic, the bulk of my prayers were to be directed to the ‘Virgin Mother‘ Mary who could seemingly solve any problem. It wasn’t until after I got saved in 1991 that I realized that all of that, with the beads, statues and candles, was nothing more than idol worship condemned in both Testaments as an abomination before God.

The Attacks Now Coming At President Trump From Progressive Laodicean Evangelicals Reveals Deep Infiltration By George Soros Front Groups
George Soros was not a happy man in 2016. He had spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy the election for his puppet Hillary Clinton through his myriad social justice front groups and the fake news media, and yet, he still lost. I think it is safe to say that Soros was truly stunned, blindsided even, when Donald Trump handily won the election. Lost people like George Soros don’t recognize the moving of the hand of God when they see it, but you and I who are saved certainly do. George Soros has another trick up his sleeve for 2020, and I thought you should know what it is.
Netflix Comedian Michelle Wolf Jokes About Having Her Abortion, Said ‘I Am God’ After She Killed Her Baby As Her Audience Howled With Laughter
Just like with the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement, abortion in America started out as toleration. Then it became acceptance, and then it controlled the narrative. Liberals no longer talk about abortion being “rare, safe and legal”, nope, not anymore. Now it is fodder for joke tellers, and politicians use it to get elected. We live in a country that just passed a law outlawing animal cruelty, while at the same time proclaiming that murdering over 3,000 babies per day in the Planned Parenthood holocaust is “every woman’s right”. On Netflix, abortion is nothing more than a grist mill for jokes by unfunny sociopathic comedians.
