The Return?

I hadn't heard of this global prayer event that took place yesterday called "The Return" until today at church. Our Pastor spoke of having listened to it and praising God for all those whose lives were touched by this event. I hope that people were genuinely saved, and got their hearts right with God. Outwardly, it seems good that this event took place.

However, I admit I see something somewhat unusual in this event. If you look at their website, you'll see good things at first, returning as a global people to God, praying in Jesus' Name, and singing songs that seemingly point people to God. But as a child of God who clings to the old time ways, and believes only the Book called the King James Bible, I see the Devil lurking under the surface. 

First off, the title of Return means what? They say return to God. I see it as returning to worship of the global religion which is forming as of right now. You may, or may not, know that the Antichrist is about to make his appearance after the true born again Christians are raptured. (If you know your King James Bible you'll know what I'm talking about.) This event focuses on returning to God, but which god? The god of this world, not the one God Who is Creator and sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross for our sins. This to me is a red flag.

Under the title is the phrase, 

NATIONAL AND GLOBAL DAY OF PRAYER AND REPENTANCE


WHERE'S THE PREACHING?? Was there any Bible preacher present that told people that they are SINNERS in need of a Savior? I doubt it. Maybe out in the parking lot, but certainly not in the midst of this satanic uproar. I didn't watch this event, so I don't know, and I have no intention of watching it. It reeks of Satan's devices. Music, singing, swaying back and forth, waving hands in the air are all about EXPERIENCE, NOT genuine salvation. People today want their flesh titillated, so there you go. Many get salvation all mixed up, that you need to do everything opposite what the Bible teaches (and sadly, what the corrupt versions do teach) which is straight from the Devil. And that, my friends, is the whole wicked agenda of the New World Religion, to unite everyone under a god who is a great big Santa Claus in the sky, but in reality is none other than Old Splitfoot himself.

If you know your Bible, you know that God can work in hearts, nationally and globally. But what about when it comes to believing on Jesus Christ as your personal Savior? That is up to the individual. It is one person at a time that God can save, and one plus another and another based on spreading the Gospel, preaching, teaching and fellowshipping with other believers in a Bible-believing church. Most churches today are nothing but night club circuses, and people love them. This global stuff makes me think of nothing more than the tower of Babel, or Nebuchadnezzar and his giant idol that the whole world was commanded to worship, with what? MUSIC. Music doesn't convict hearts, PREACHING does!! The Devil always uses the same tactics to send people to Hell, and he does it at different times thoughout history. But does mankind learn? No. That's where the idiom "History always repeats itself" comes from. Because mankind is always going to be a sinner in desperate need of a Savior, and until he is saved, he is bound for an eternity in Hell fire.

Here's the description on the website:

The Return is a movement, an appointed time, and a specific day set apart for one purpose – the return to God by coming before His presence in humility, in sincerity in prayer, and repentance.

The movement begins now and will continue through the entire year of 2020 leading up to 10 Days of Prayer, Fasting, and Repentance – Starting with the Biblical Feast of Trumpets and ending with the Day of Atonement (September 18-September 28). The central day of The Return will be Saturday, September 26, 2020 on the National Mall and throughout the nation and world.

What does the Day of Atonement and the Feast of Trumpets have to do with returning to God today? Jews today still worship God just like in Old Testament times, except without the animal sacrifices. Don't they get it, that they crucified their Messiah, and are now waiting for what is really the ANTI-Christ?? I understand that the Old Testament feasts were what God used to bring His people back to worshipping Him, but they were only shadows of things to come. This is 2020 and we are now at the end of the Church Age, the Age of Grace. God sent His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to bring lost mankind back to Him, and we are responsible to BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ ALONE to reconcile us back to God. Jesus already paid the full price on the cross of all our sins for the whole world; so the Old Testament rituals that God used back then are no longer in effect, because Jesus is our Lamb, our Passover, our Rest, our Rock and our glorious Savior. Without Him, we can do nothing, therefore I see this event as grossly out of context, even to certain people's ruin. We don't need the Feast of Trumpets to unite us under God anymore: we have JESUS CHRIST!!

Further down the page you see some book author grubbing for money. Is that what the Old Testament patriarchs did? No. Fast forward to today. Is the love of money the root of all evil? Yes. Donate? I'll never give God's money to anything outside my local church. Unfortunately I suppose many people did donate to this event, because they don't know better.

This page is what they claim salvation is. It is as worldly as can be, therefore it is vain. God is nowhere in this. First you see people's raised hands. That is sycophantic, phony worship. God is not honored by rock music or people swaying back and forth like they're demon-possessed. Second, they give a verse from the corrupt ESV bible, And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:7 ESV). This is unbearable. God did not author the ESV, or the NIV, or the NKJV, or any Alexandrian fake bibles. They were written by MEN, and therefore are worth no more than the paper they're printed on. God wrote only ONE BOOK, not 2,000. Let's look at the KJB:

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7 KJB

Guarding is not the same as keeping. If it was, the ESV would say "keep". Sadly, all versions of the Bible are corrupt. Only the King James Bible is the truth. So I conclude that this event is nothing more than ear-tickling, back-scratching, phony mumbo-jumbo intended to further encourage the lukewarm that they are just fine, and push the New World Religion farther into the minds of the masses. I think it's sickening, and I know God does too. What a waste.

I wonder if these people making this event even bothered to spread the TRUE  Gospel of Christ, the true Gospel of 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 in the trusty King James Bible. I do hope people got saved the Bible way, because out of all the earth's population there surely are those who really want to believe the Bible way, that being, believing the true Gospel that Jesus Christ died on the cross, was buried and rose again. I do hope and pray a few got away with genuine salvation, because these days the holy Name of Jesus is nothing more than a cuss word. Yet God is powerful enough to get into all hearts, and I pray some hearts were broken yesterday.

This is the Gospel which you must believe to be saved. Jesus died for you, sinner. He made a way for you to be born again and go to Heaven to be with Him forever when you die. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:3,4 KJB
