"My people are going to need My commands in order to survive!
They cannot stand unless they stand in My agape love!
Their only protection from the enemy in the last days
is the love I gave them while they were My enemies,
and which I commanded them to give to their enemies.
If My people do not stand in My love,
then they have already fallen!"

Art: "The Way of Freedom"
When tribulation, trial,
and suffering come:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When the world fills with evil
and love becomes cold:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When life, home and happiness
are taken away:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When the nations rush to fight
and draw blood for gain:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When ways of life are threatened
and things change for worse:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When freedom for greed is sought
and mercy is mocked:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When deceivers, false teachers
and abuses grow:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When earth and sea tremble, and
stars fall from heaven:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.
When the last day approaches,
and the world darkens:
Endure patiently,
hold to My testimony
and command to love.

Art: "Preach the Gospel!"
"Are you willing to suffer for My sake?
Are you willing to let your rights be taken away
for the sake of the gospel?
Are you willing to embrace with My love
those who persecute you?
Are you willing to follow Me even if
you have to go to prison because of My word?
Are you willing to carry a cross
if I set one before you?"

Art: "For My Sake"
"If you have added your glory on top of My Son's
and proclaimed your righteousness instead of His,
you are choosing to be judged by your works
instead of by the work of My Son."

"The American Patriot's Gospel"
"In all of your suffering,
I was there suffering with you.
Just as you suffered oppression and violence
though you had done no wrong, so did I.
I was born into your world
to redeem your suffering.
And because of what your people suffered,
you quickly understand My heart
in a way that is not as easy for others.
Do not forget your history.
Do not forget how you were given
the light of faith in the midst of darkness,
and how through faith your ancestors were sustained
even as they were beaten and hung.
Do not forget how I sent you
a man after My own heart
to teach you the power of My agape love.
Do not forget the dream I gave him
of the beloved community.
Do not be distracted by the American dream,
for I brought you out of slavery
for better things than that—
to set a nation free that is enslaved
to greed and violence.
Help your neighbors to true freedom—
to My love and My eternal liberty."
"He sent a man before them,
Joseph, sold as a slave."
(Psalm 105:17)

Art: "Immanuel in the Land of the Free"
"The night has come and I am
calling My people to stand watch.
My agape love is light in the darkness;
darkness is where My agape love is missing.
Many have fallen asleep and live in darkness—
they live without knowing My agape love.
Therefore I am sending witnesses into the midst
of the night where agape love has grown cold.
I am sending them to awaken and fan into flame
the embers of agape love that remain.
Who will allow My love to rouse them
and desire to be awakened from sleep?
Who will vainly try to quench
and wash away My agape love?"
*****
Art: "For The End"
"Many of My people have said that the
only two nations founded upon My word
are the United States and Israel.
Indeed both nations have been
founded upon My word—
upon the desecration of My word!"
