ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS FROM REMNANT

REMNANT: Hello brethren. I need help! There are so many prophetic voices going forth today, but so many seem to contradict one another! Two examples: (1) Many "prophets" are saying Jesus' return is imminent -- maybe even this year -- and that The Rapture is a true doctrine. Others are saying that we are heading into the 21st Century and have several years yet (and that there will be no "rapture" event which is separate from his second coming).

CHAR: In many ways, it does not matter when the rapture occurs. We are prepared to be caught up in the air with Jesus, and we are prepared to stay on earth and fight. Now what I know about the rapture is that it is the catching away of the Remnant to the marriage supper of Jesus to His bride, and His Remnant is that bride. And what I believe is that it occurs shortly before He returns. I believe we meet Him in the air, while He is on His way to earth. Then, through the mystery of a day being a thousand years, (only it is not a "day" but more like an "hour") we go with Him to be refreshed from what we suffered on earth and we partake of the wedding feast with Him. Then we and Jesus return to earth. Now I know that there are those who are thinking that the rapture is imminent and I would be delighted if that were to be the case. But it really does not matter, because we are committed to obey Him until the day that we leave this earth, no matter when that occurs.

REMNANT: (2) Some say that judgment, in the form of terrible war, is coming on the U.S. and that it is too late for the nation to repent. Others say that the revival that is coming will change the landscape of the U.S. and turn it back to God.

CHAR: Unfortunately, I believe that there is judgment coming on the United States in particular, and also all over the world. The nation is not going to repent. You may say that is heresy, and doubt, on my part, but it is not. If the Father told me that America would repent, I would have faith, because my faith is in Him, and what He says, and what He does. Instead, He is showing how the disaster will affect the "revival" and the role that His Remnant must play after the disaster occurs. He also has said that we will experience what Noah experienced, and I believe by that He means world-wide disaster.

I believe that the judgment is coming in this country. It will be disaster that we as a nation have never before experienced. Right now the church is prophesying that there will be revival and renewal and then we will all be taken away to heaven with Jesus, while the poor sinners on earth face the wrath of God. That is not what is going to happen. After the disaster occurs, the survivors will be crying out to the church, "You misled us. Why has this happened?" Well, some church leaders will be struck dumb by the events. They will have no answer and they will withdraw into their own pain and confusion and fear, and will abandon the sheep. These leaders will feel betrayed by God, who always gets blamed, when man brings about judgment on himself. Other church leaders will say, "It is the enemy. We are being come against." You can expect this in particular from the Laodicean church, who does not see how blind and naked she is now, and most likely will not even then. If they truly loved the truth, they could have received the truth now. But the Remnant will know the truth, because the Father is making the truth plain. The Remnant will comfort the lambs saying, "You must seek the Father in repentance. He will forgive you and Jesus Himself will make Himself known to you to comfort you. He is alive." At this time, in the church, there will be the "famine for hearing the word of the Lord" which was foretold in the book of Amos. But the Remnant will know Him and will hear Him, and they will teach the lambs.

In all of this, the Remnant should be looking for the return of Jesus because we do not know exactly when He will return and His return is our hope. In the meantime, the Father Himself throws open the door to the throne room, so we can be in close fellowship with Him, as Adam was at first, so all these events do not take us by surprise. This fellowship with Him, as Adam had, is a promise that the Father has made to His Remnant.

REMNANT: What is confusing is that ALL of these "prophets" appear to be walking closely with God but their messages are all so different and seem to contradict each other. How can this be? How do you tell a true prophet from a false one? Today, I am ready to throw out every prophecy I have ever seen!

CHAR: Here is why it is so confusing concerning the different prophets and prophecies: there are many types of prophets, and many types of prophecies. First, there are many religious people, who are not prophets at all, but think they are, who say through their own minds, "thus saith the Lord". Next, there are false prophets, who through demons, give false prophecies. Usually these men or women are deceived, and don't realize that they have a demon, and that their "prophecies" are false. There are also men and women who have the gift of prophecy. However, sometimes they are mistaken about what certain things mean, so they misinterpret what the Father is saying, so that you can't always tell which is truly from the Holy Spirit, and which is only what they believe or interpret the Scriptures or the prophecy to mean. And sometimes they don't know the difference between what is from the Holy Spirit, and what is from themselves. This definitely causes confusion. If they knew the Father as well as they should know Him, and must enter into knowing Him, then this confusion would not occur. And lastly, there are some true prophets, such as Silvana, and others, who speak from the Holy Spirit, because He is with them to do so, and they do not interfere with the Holy Spirit, they just yield to Him and say what He tells them to say.

This is a puzzle, but there is a solution, and the solution to the puzzle is to ask Jesus. You can know the truth, because Jesus Himself will tell you what is true, as you seek Him in the throne room.

In preparation for what is ahead, the Father is telling His Remnant that He wants them to read Ezekiel, because He is saying that it applies to today. His people need to be obedient to Him, and READ EZEKIEL. He wants there to be an end to the idea that He is "speaking peace" and He wants His seriousness to be known.

Here is what it says in Ezekiel 13, concerning false prophets:
"Have you not seen false visions and uttered lying divinations when you say: The Lord declares, though I have not spoken? Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says, because of your false words and lying visions, I am against you, declares the Sovereign Lord. My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter false divinations. They will not belong to the council of My people or be listed in the records of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of the Israel. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign Lord. Because they lead My people astray, saying, "Peace" when there is no peace."

The Father will show everything that is in His mind, concerning the events of today, the rapture, revival, (which He has already addressed in THE DOOR TO REVIVAL), prophets, prophecies and anything else that we desire to understand. These will all be made clear as we wait on Him, becoming as little children, to learn of Him.
