"My people,
Many of you have learned
to find Me outside of the
modern structures of 'church'
and have awakened to many truths
you did not learn there.
I have given you understanding
and have blessed you as you
sought to become free
from systems of bondage.
But many of you have become proud
of being outside of the places
in which you once worshiped Me.
Many of you have also become
excited about any 'truth' that
diverged from the mainstream beliefs.
Many of My people in mainstream churches
are taught to discern according
to the walls of their church structures,
but true discernment is not
found by simply pursuing what
those churches have rejected!
Many of you have become enamored
by rejecting doctrines that they
consider of foundational importance;
many of you have become enamored by the idea
that writings church councils rejected in the past
must have been suppressed because of their 'truth.'
Do not be seduced by the
appearance of hidden secrets!
Do not be carried away by believing
that just because something has been suppressed
it automatically means it contains truth!
Do not believe with cheap discernment!
Haven't I declared that I do not
despise My captive people?
Do not look down on those who worship Me
inside broken church systems!
Do not despise the truths of the
faith I have entrusted to My people
—including those in captivity—
since the beginning of the Church.
Do not be proud of 'being outside'
and so fail to love and intercede
for those who are still 'inside'—
for they are My beloved children
just as you yourselves are.
There is one Rock—My Son—
and even though there has been
much confusion and division
amongst My people who call on Me,
My Spirit has not forsaken My bride."

I am making you a trumpet
to wake up My people
who have been lulled to sleep
by the teachers of nationalism,
militarism, and prosperity.
Bury your fears in My love,
and find your rest
in My Son's peace.
I am with you.
Know that nothing
you have done in My Spirit
will fail to achieve My purpose."

I am not the reward of the sinless or the pious.

with the righteousness and commands of men.

"The wall of division has been rebuilt!
What I joined together as one body
has been separated by man!
On the Cross in My body I abolished
the separation between Jew and Gentile,
but the teaching of dispensationalism
has annulled My word and trampled on My blood!
"I made My people citizens of heaven,
but dispensationalism teaches a
citizenship in 'Israel' that is separate
from citizenship in 'the church'.
"Through My blood I brought near
those who were far away,
but dispensationalism teaches
that some are fully 'God’s people'
while others are foreigners.
"I gave My covenant and promises to all
—both to Jews and to Gentiles—
but dispensationalism teaches that
some promises are only for one
but not for the other.
"Now, because of dispensationalism,
many of My people do not know their inheritance.
They walk in darkness because they have been taught
to see by the 'light' of Israel in the end times;
they put their hope in the shadows
instead of seeing by the Light of the world.
"Those who divide My house destroy My house.
I will rescue My children from the darkness they sit in
because of the teaching of dispensationalism.
But those who cling to the wall they have built
will be as shadows at the coming of the Light."

and darkness to sustain their light,
keeping My children in the dark
for the sake of 'the church' and their ministry.
"Woe to those who depend on old covenant shadows
and keep hidden the abuse of My children!
I will allow darkness to overtake them
and the houses they have built with darkness.
When they fall because the darkness has overtaken them,
they will see no path beneath their feet,

None of your systems of interpreting the end times are correct,
for I have not called you to systems, but to relationship with Me.
If you have Me, then you do not need any 'system' of interpretation.
"Every effort to interpret sealed prophecies
has removed My Son from the center.
Every system has marginalized the Cross
and diverted your attention away
from My command of agape love.
"Therefore I am calling My people out—
out of systems of end-time interpretation.
I am calling My people back to the testimony of My Son
and His command to love one another as He loved you.
I am calling you back to My heart!
"You believe you have understood the 'puzzle' of the end times,
and now you are waiting for things to unfold.
But things will not happen as you expect,
for Revelation is not about events or 'things happening'—
understanding Revelation is understanding My broken heart!
"My heart breaks for you because you have sold yourselves—
to what you believe will prepare you for 'the final conflict,'
to making sure you're on the 'right side' with the 'right people,'
and to 'moving things into place' according to your interpretations.
In so doing, you have left your first love, My people!
"You have separated yourselves as those who believe you know My plan,

trying to buy favor that will keep you from being 'left behind.'
Yet though My people are confused and divided by your interpretations,

I am not promising to save your meetings;

"I did not make My gospel dependent
on having a sanctuary and a service—
that was the old covenant temple.
I do not dwell in sacred times or sacred places any longer—
instead, today I dwell in each of My people;
and where two or three gather in My name,
I give to each one a revelation of Myself
which can be shared as you minister to one another.
"I am calling you to choose
which covenant you want to live in:
the old or the new covenant—
Christ or Moses.
If you choose the new covenant,

You must trust Me instead.
As I kept My church in the beginning,

Why do so many not turn to Me for comfort?
Isn't it because they cannot see My love in you—
in you who care about them only to change them?
"Did you receive My love by becoming righteous?
Was it your transformation, purification and perfection
that caused Me to love and accept you?
"I am He who identified with transgressors,with the broken, the poor, and the lowly,

Love one another as I have loved you."
"You are safe in Me.
I am your refuge.

"My people, some of you are certain that you know the identity of 'the antichrist'
and the forces that you believe will 'align against you' in the end times.
You point to the acts of violence done by those who believe in different gods
and those who do not align with you politically.
Because they do not profess the name of Christ,
you deduce that they are 'the antichrist'.
Because they lash out in hatred at Christians and your countries,
you are certain that they are 'the antichrist'.
"My people, you do not realize that you are following
in the footsteps of Jews who believed Rome was their greatest enemy—
you have tried to discern the antichrist spirit by looking
at those who have fought against you!
But I sent you My Son to show you that your greatest enemies
are not the flesh and blood that can kill your body.
My Son did not die in order to free Jews from Rome,
but to free you all from sin and rebellion in your hearts!
In the same way, the spirit of antichrist is not an attack from the outside,
but is a rebellion from the inside,
just as the crucifixion of My Son was a rebellion among My people
against My grace, My mercy, and My law of agape love.
"The spirit of antichrist is not and will not be a persecution from outside,
but is and will be a rebellion against My law of agape love
that occurs among those who profess My name.
None of the many persecutions of Rome were able to destroy the witness
of the Church to the risen Christ, but when the Church received the crown of Rome,
many of My people rebelled against My law of agape love
and set out as a conqueror bent on conquest.
The spirit of antichrist arose from among My people to lead them
away from My commandments—My commandments to love as I have loved you,
and to carry the word of My love in the Cross to all nations.
Many who proclaimed My name went forth serving a false Christ,
a spirit set against My Word and My commandment: the antichrist spirit.
"Look to the spirit, not to the appearance of things!
Look to the heart, not to the profession of correct beliefs!
Look to My heart—My Spirit—to understand the last days!
Look to My Son, crucified for you while you were My enemies!"
