Watchman River Tom – April 22, 2024 –  More War after Passover?

Another good day to serve the Lord as we await the pre-tribulation rapture together.

  Tom  started a second channel and said on Friday he had 10 subscribers and now almost 9,000.  All about lifting up the name of Jesus.  Yesterday they did communion together  there.

Tom wants to share about a Scripture that he didn’t understand when he was young.  Matthew 5:46-48, the Sermon on the Mount.  Jesus giving instruction on loving each other.  Jesus says be perfect just as your Father in heaven is perfect.  Tom said it confused him because we can’t be perfect.  The he realized, that’s the point, we can’t be perfect.  Tom says he gets many comments of what works we should do.  Some say to Tom   pray with your hat on, some say pray with your hat off!  The way will live is to allow the Holy Spirit to lead us.  We will be perfect only when we are on the other side.

Amir said Saturday they say the the evacuations of citizens from Rafah will begin right after the Passover.  Today is April 22,  the day of Passover.  

Some still say the sacrifice of Red Heifer will happen today.   Tom wonders if they already performed it.  Thinks they have been waiting for 2,000 years for a perfect Red Heifer and when one became available they would not delay.

The third temple and sacrifice will happen.  The Bible doesn’t say if we are here for that.

Testimonies and comments – 

With Jesus lives changed thanks to our Redeemer.  Saved and a new path.  

Jesus is the answer to all our prayers.  To all we need when weary, alone, have nothing, abused, who need love, need forgiveness, and life.  Be patient, be kind, be blessed.

He is everything, the only answer.  

His parents said years ago when we hear about building of a third temple we know we are close.

Gospel –

He is everything.  Urgency now more than ever to see what is coming and need to be saved before its too late.  No excuses, don’t ignore.  Realize the need to receive Jesus payment for forgiveness. 

Jesus, the Creator of everything, the only begotten Son of God came to shed His blood to remove all sins.  The perfect sacrifice.  Died, buried, rose the third day to take care of all sins so we could be with Him forever. 

Saved by grace through faith.  Admit of being a sinner and believe in all He did for us.  Be saved, born again, rapture ready.  

Reject it, will go to hell, sins not forgiven.

Be saved today,  receive Him.

Today’s Scripture:

Matthew 5:46-48 KJV

[46] For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? [47] And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? [48] Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
