“Even people who do not know the prophecies contained in the Word of God sense that something is terribly wrong,” wrote Carl Gallups, “and that danger is rapidly building. This ‘sense of urgency’ is the frequent topic of conversation the world over. This is why I wrote my last two books.”
“It certainly looks like the elite know something the rest of us don’t, as many are fleeing cities and even entire countries. Some are preparing emergency bunkers and panic rooms – all at a time when Republican front-runner Donald Trump and some economists are predicting an imminent recession.
Thousands of millionaires, many of the Jewish, have fled the troubled cities of Chicago and Paris. About 10,000 millionaires fled France all together to escape rising religious tensions between Muslims and the native French in urban areas.
And many of those who remain behind are taking precautions by having safe rooms, bunkers and blast doors built to protect them from social instability. The bunkers often have pools, movie theaters, bars and other luxuries.
Carl Gallups wrote a book for Christians on how to survive persecution, chaos and disaster called “Be Thou Prepared,” urging Christians to heed the warnings of those powerful people who seem to believe something big is coming.
“It is certainly telling that even these sellers of ’emergency bunker real estate’ understand that ‘millions of people’ around the world believe we may be in for some tough times – perhaps disastrous times,” Gallups said. “Christians should not underestimate the importance of the era in which they live,” he said. We are told to ‘know the season’ in which we live.”
“The things about which the world’s wealthiest people are reportedly most worried … are civil unrest, revolution, rampant crime, and natural disasters,” said Gallups. “Many of them believe these things may be more dangerously possible than ever before. With the rise of the Islamic State and its atrocities, massive refugee movements, sword-rattling nuclear superpowers, Ferguson-like civil unrest spreading, and continual mainstream media predictions of economic meltdowns and potential natural disasters like Yellowstone erupting, who could blame them?”
“And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out. And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it.” Luke 19:40-41
“Out of the cities; out of the cities!”–this is the message the Lord has been giving me. The earthquakes will come; the floods will come; and we are not to establish ourselves in the wicked cities, where the enemy is served in every way, and where God is so often forgotten. The Lord desires that we shall have clear spiritual eyesight.” Country Living, page 31.

Monday August 15th, 2016 at 05:19 PMGod has a plan for that. We are to work the cities from outposts. That is very clear from the Spirit of Prophecy. Also the churches are to be in or near the cities.

Wednesday August 17th, 2016 at 04:44 PMDid you not know that EGW said Live in the country but there is a work to be done in the cities.. It really is best not to live in a city, a time will come when folks will want to leave and like Jerusalem of old, they will not be allowed to.

Monday August 15th, 2016 at 11:37 AMWhy aren’t Seventh day Adventists??? I cry every morning for God’s people. I hear sermons by elders who are in the process of building themselves bigger office buildings. I get rebuked often for sharing what Sister White tells us to share about warning God’s people. If we blow the trumpet today we will be disfellowshipped even more than ever. ALL sermons must be approved by the division leaders before anyone can speak from pulpits. When will God’s people come together in unity and love for each other???

Monday August 15th, 2016 at 05:21 PMSome of your statements would be considered inaccurate. Division leaders don’t approve all sermons for instance. We should only say that which we can document. Pastor Mayer

Monday August 15th, 2016 at 07:54 PMDear Jeff, you gave the warning. If the church members don’t listen to you, their blood will be in their own hands. If you get dis fellowship it means nothing. What matters is that your name is written on the Lamb’s Book of Life. Remember only 1 in 20 whose name are written in the church books will make it to heaven. There are many SDAs who have left the cities and plenty more who are doing what we were told to do for over 130 years. We are supposed to visit the cities to evangelize. The people screaming about staying in the cities, are they evangelizing? Or do they just go to church on Sabbath, hear a sermon, sing, pray, eat, chat a little, then go home and do the same thing next week? If the Lord has made an impression on you to leave the city, then you pray to Him, and ask him to guide you. No one in church or out of church is your boss. God made us free! There are many SDA members who went to the country, they became medical missionaries and are evangelizing. There is no SDA church near me that does missionary, medical missionary, or evangelism. So I stepped out and boy have my eyes been cleaned with eye salve. I have never prayed, studied God’s word, the Spirit of prophecy, witnessed, done missionary work as much as I have now. When I see the members of the church, they cover their ears at end times talk. Some frown and some have told me that Jesus can’t come now because they have so many goals. Even the Pastor is buying houses, flipping them, and selling them. Who would have thought that the true church is all about prosperity messages? I’m not saying leave the church or run for the hills. But what I’m saying is that this is preparation time. Character building, prophecy and bible study, you can buy and sell. You can plan your move. If you wait for the Sunday Law, forget planning or selling. You will run like Lott. If you can make it out of the city. Sister White said there will be so much chaos and confusion some won’t be able to make it out. And if you do, where will you go?

Thursday September 1st, 2016 at 12:19 PMSo true Priscilla as a SDA why are so many confused? Daniel 12:10, Isaiah 9:16, Amos 3:7…most of SDA do not read or believe the SP. Which says the majority of SDA will not make it and God will hold every SDA pastor who is not preaching the 3 Angels Message accountable. Eso. 33 & Eso. 9

Tuesday August 16th, 2016 at 03:51 PMWhile I’m not sure of your point, you may not be aware that in our Prophetic Intelligence Briefings, we summarize articles in the press and connect them to Bible prophecy. That’s all. We do not make a lot of comments about them or analyze them in depth as we do in our sermons. They are not intended to be a theological or doctrinal message. Children should be taught to understand that in Christ there is no fear. Blessings, pr. Mayer

Monday August 15th, 2016 at 09:11 PMMy thoughts regarding the silence is that the ecumenical movement has certain rules and regulations in place to keep silent and ‘not panic’ people; which means when trouble breaks out, we’re all surprised and unprepared and wiped out.
Al
Wednesday August 17th, 2016 at 07:54 AMTransgression has almost reached its limit. Confusion fills the world, and a great terror is soon to come upon human beings. The end is very near. God’s people should be preparing for what is to break upon the world as an overwhelming surprise.
The “time of trouble, such as never was,” is soon to open upon us; and we shall need an experience which we do not now possess and which many are too indolent to obtain. It is often the case that trouble is greater in anticipation than in reality; but this is not true of the crisis before us. The most vivid presentation cannot reach the magnitude of the ordeal. In that time of trial, every soul must stand for himself before God. “Though Noah, Daniel, and Job” were in the land, “as I live, saith the Lord God, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.” Ezekiel 14:20.

Thursday August 18th, 2016 at 05:37 AM10000 millionaires fleeing France? Sources? Data?
Many of them Jewish is understandable. Probably all of them Jewish. Antisemitism is rising up everywhere.

Sunday August 21st, 2016 at 10:59 PMWhere in the wilderness? When one is alone it isn’t easy to know what to do and how to get it accomplished. I live in the country but the garden area and having water isn’t conducive to being self sufficient. I’m not into Facebook so don’t direct me there.

Tuesday August 23rd, 2016 at 04:47 PMBrethren… All we can do is this…as we are preparing to move from where we are to the Country, we should be preparing ourselves (Spiritually). We should distrust-self and (trust-God). We need to (Humble-Ourselves) before God. And by (Obeying) the Lord, we will be (Purifying) our Souls in the process. By doing all of this, we will receive the (Heavenly Mould).
And Preparing for (The Seal of God) in our (For heads).
Let (Us All) look to Christ and by (Beholding) we will be changed.
Let UA (Try) to keep Gods Commandments, out of (Love) for Him; and to (Bear) His Holy Righteousness.
Like egwhite says ‘As wax takes the impression of the Seal, so the Soul is to take the impression of the Spirit of God and retain the image of Christ. (Maranatha).
Let us not forget the Spiritual Preparation as well as the physical.
I Pray the Father that each person named on this forum, will find the (Straight & Narrow Gate) that Leads unto Eternal Life. I Pray that each Soul on this forum will take hold of Christ (Nail – pierced Carpenter hands) and hold them to the End, l Pray that one day, that you will all will eventually touch, collec, own and put on Your Personal (Crown & Robe). I Pray that your feet will be ordered by the lord each and everyday. That your left hand and Right hand will be Blessed with Gods Blessings.. And l lastly Pray that that your left foot and your right foot will ( Stand – Firmly) upon the (Sea of Glass) with Jesus Our Eternal Father l ask these precious things in the Precious Sweet Saving Name of Jesus Amen and Amen So let it be Done!

Thursday August 25th, 2016 at 11:47 AMI love every word you wrote Sister Priscilla, its the truth the Pastors are only preaching smoother messages for the folks and not waking them up to the pending doom that’s is about to come upon the world and the large cities. So sad, but we are to work out our own Salvation with fear and trembling. Now is the time to leave the big cities. Thank you, God bless.
