All right.

For today's prophecy update, I'm hoping that you'll bear with me as I address three matters in the time that we have together today.

The first matter I need to address are about my comments last week concerning spiritual departure versus physical departure in 2 Thessalonians chapter 2, verse 3.

The second matter has to do with the developments of prophetic significance this last week, and the third is regarding the pre-tribulation rapture in the communion celebration.

First, concerning 2nd Thessalonians 2.3, please know that I'm hoping to speak with Dr. Andy Woods

and Dr. Mark Hitchcock.

Hitchcock is on one side of this and Woods is on the other side of this.

I have the utmost respect for these men who I see as true Bible scholars and I'm going

to have actually the privilege of joining them this October at two prophecy conferences.

Andy Wood's, Wood's,

Professorman's Prophecy Watcher Conference in Oklahoma,

and Dr. Mark Hitchcock will be speaking at Jan Markell's understanding the Times conference in Minnesota.

Both conferences will be in the month of October, and I have the privilege of being one of the speakers at these conferences.

But I just want to humbly and kindly ask that both sides of this discussion take the higher

road of agreeing to disagree agreeably, especially when it comes to our online church, particularly

and the comments on our YouTube channel,

I would be disingenuous if I didn't say how grieved I've been by some of the real vile

and even foul comments, even name calling.

And I just got to believe that that really grieves the heart of God.

I'm reminded of what Proverbs 7 says about the six things that God hates,

the seventh being an abomination unto him.

And the abomination is the sowing of discord amongst the brethren.
