Choose This Day Which Kingdom You Will Serve

LIGHT or DARK, LIFE or DEATH, TRUTH or LIES, LIFE or FEAR?

The Inescapable Decision

Every human being who has ever drawn breath faces the same fundamental decision that has echoed through the corridors of eternity since the dawn of creation. This is not a choice that can be postponed indefinitely, nor is it one that can be avoided through indecision. The biblical record makes abundantly clear that neutrality is impossible in the cosmic conflict between light and darkness, between the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of self.

Joshua's ancient declaration to the Israelites resonates with urgent relevance today: "Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve" (Joshua 24:15) The word "today" carries eternal weight—not tomorrow, not when circumstances improve, not when we feel ready, but today. This choice demands immediate attention because, as we shall examine, the consequences extend far beyond this temporary existence into the realm of eternity.

The decision before us is binary: Faith or Fear, Eternal Life or Eternal Death, With God or Without God. There is no middle ground, no third option, no Switzerland of the soul where one can remain forever neutral. As Jesus Himself declared, "He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who does not gather with Me scatters" (Matthew 12:30

Jesus and the Doctrine of Division

The Sword of Separation

Perhaps no teaching of Jesus Christ has been more misunderstood or deliberately obscured than His clear statements about division. The popular conception of Jesus as merely a teacher of love and unity crumbles when confronted with His own words about the divisive nature of His mission and message.

"Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man's enemies will be the members of his household" Matthew 10:34-36

This is not the gentle Jesus of popular imagination, but the Jesus of biblical reality—One whose very presence forces humanity to choose sides. The "sword" He speaks of is not a physical weapon but the sharp edge of truth that cuts through deception, pretense, and comfortable compromise. His message creates an unavoidable crisis of decision that penetrates to the deepest levels of human relationships and loyalties.

The Great Divider

Jesus identified Himself as the ultimate dividing line of human history: "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me" (John 14:6 This exclusive claim makes Him either the narrow gate to eternal life or the stumbling stone that leads to eternal destruction. There is no neutral response to such a claim.

The division Jesus brings is not arbitrary but revelatory—it exposes what already exists in the human heart. "This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil" (John 3:19 His presence simply reveals the pre-existing condition of every human soul: we are either drawn to the light or we shrink from it in fear of exposure.

The Parable of Ultimate Separation

In Matthew 25:31-46, Jesus painted the most sobering picture of final division in all of Scripture. When He returns in glory, He will separate humanity as "the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats." This separation is not based on religious affiliation, cultural background, or social status, but on the fundamental choice each person has made regarding His lordship.

The sheep inherit "the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world," while the goats are commanded to "Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels." The finality of this language admits no appeals process, no second chances, no reconsideration. The choice made in this life determines eternal destiny.

The Anatomy of Choice: Why Some Choose Darkness

The Love of Darkness

The question haunts the honest mind: why would anyone choose darkness over light, death over life, lies over truth? The answer lies in the disturbing reality of human nature that the Bible exposes with unflinching clarity.

"For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed" (John 3:20 The choice for darkness is not made in ignorance but in rebellion. It is not that people cannot see the light, but that they will not come to the light because it threatens to expose what they wish to keep hidden.

The Deception of Self-Rule

At the heart of the choice for darkness lies the ancient lie first whispered in Eden: "You will be like God" (Genesis 3:5 This is the core deception—that human beings can be their own ultimate authority, their own source of truth, their own savior. The kingdom of self promises autonomy, freedom from accountability, and the right to define one's own reality.

Paul described this progression with surgical precision: "For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools" (Romans 1:21-22 The choice for self-rule leads inevitably to moral and spiritual darkness, even as the one making the choice believes they are choosing enlightenment.

The Hardening Process

Scripture reveals that repeated rejection of light leads to a hardening of the heart that makes further choice increasingly difficult. "But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God" Romans 2:5

This is not divine cruelty but divine justice—God gives people over to the choices they persistently make. "And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper" (Romans 1:28) The terrifying reality is that a person can reach a point where they have so identified with darkness that they no longer desire the light.

Grace and Wrath: The Dividing Line of Eternity

The Intersection of Divine Attributes

The choice between light and darkness is made at the intersection of two divine attributes that define God's character: His grace and His wrath. These are not contradictory aspects of God but complementary expressions of His perfect justice and love.

Grace is God's unmerited favor extended to rebellious humanity through the sacrifice of His Son. "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9 This grace is freely offered to all, but it must be received through faith and repentance.

Wrath is God's perfect justice responding to rebellion against His holiness. "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness" (Romans 1:18) This wrath is not divine temper but divine righteousness that cannot overlook sin.

The Cross: Where Grace and Wrath Meet

At Calvary, these two divine attributes met in perfect harmony. God's wrath against sin was fully satisfied in the sacrifice of His Son, while His grace was fully demonstrated in providing that sacrifice Himself. "He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him" (2 Corinthians 5:21

This is why the cross becomes the ultimate dividing line of human history. Those who accept what Christ accomplished there receive grace; those who reject it remain under wrath. "He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him" (John 3:36

The Mechanism of Deception: How Light Becomes Darkness

The Pride of Life

The primary mechanism by which people are deceived into choosing darkness over light is pride—specifically, the pride of life that refuses to acknowledge dependence on God. "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world" (1 John 2:16

Pride convinces people that they can chart their own course, define their own truth, and save themselves through their own efforts. It whispers that submission to God is weakness rather than wisdom, slavery rather than freedom. This pride blinds people to their desperate need for salvation and keeps them trapped in the illusion of self-sufficiency.

The Suppression of Truth

Paul revealed that humanity's problem is not lack of evidence for God's existence but active suppression of that evidence: "Because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them... so that they are without excuse" Romans 1:19-20

The choice for darkness requires the deliberate suppression of truth that is evident both in creation and in conscience. This suppression is not passive ignorance but active rebellion—a determined effort to silence the voice of God that speaks through both external revelation and internal conviction.

The Comfort of Darkness

Darkness provides a false sense of security for those engaged in deeds they know to be wrong. It offers the illusion that sin can be hidden, that consequences can be avoided, that accountability can be escaped. "But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light" Ephesians 5:13

The light of God's truth threatens this comfortable illusion by exposing sin for what it truly is and demanding accountability for choices made. Many prefer the temporary comfort of darkness to the permanent freedom that comes through confession and repentance in the light.

Transparency vs. Secrecy: The Heart of the Choice

Living in the Light

Those who choose the Kingdom of Light choose a life of radical transparency before God and others. "But if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin" 1 John 1:7

This transparency is not merely behavioral but spiritual—a willingness to have every thought, motive, and action examined by the light of God's truth. It requires abandoning all pretense, all masks, all attempts to appear righteous while harboring unrighteousness within. It is the choice to live with nothing to hide because everything is covered by the blood of Christ.

The Hiding of Darkness

Conversely, those who choose the kingdom of self choose a life of secrecy, hiding, and shame. They become skilled at managing their image, controlling information, and maintaining facades that conceal their true character. "For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed" John 3:20

This lifestyle of concealment is exhausting and ultimately futile, for "there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known" (Luke 12:2) The day is coming when all secrets will be exposed, all hidden things will be brought to light, and all facades will crumble before the penetrating gaze of divine truth.

The Urgency of Now: Time Has Expired

The Shortness of Opportunity

The Bible consistently emphasizes the urgency of decision and the brevity of opportunity. "Behold, now is 'the acceptable time,' behold, now is 'the day of salvation'" (2 Corinthians 6:20 )The word "now" appears twice in this verse, emphasizing that the moment of decision cannot be postponed without risk.

James reminds us of the fragility of human existence: "Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away" (James 4:14) Every day could be the last opportunity to choose light over darkness, life over death.

The Promise of Christ's Return

For those who believe in the imminent return of Christ, the urgency intensifies exponentially. Jesus promised, "I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also" (John 14:3 This promise, known to many as the Harpazo or Rapture, represents the moment when the opportunity for decision ends for those who are alive.

Paul described this event: "For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord" 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

If this event is indeed imminent, then the time for decision has reached its final moments. After this occurs, those who remain will face an increasingly darkened world where the choice for light becomes exponentially more difficult.

The Two Destinations: Eternal Consequences

The Kingdom of Light

For those who choose light, the destination is the eternal presence of God in perfect righteousness, peace, and joy. "And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, 'Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them, and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away'" Revelation 21:3-4

This is not merely improvement of current conditions but complete transformation into something unimaginably glorious. It is life as God intended it, unmarred by sin, death, or suffering. It is eternal fellowship with the source of all goodness, truth, and love.

The Kingdom of Darkness

For those who choose darkness, the destination is eternal separation from God and all goodness. Jesus described this state in the starkest possible terms: "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels'" Matthew 25:41

This is not temporary punishment but permanent separation. It is the logical conclusion of a life spent rejecting God—eternal existence without Him. Since God is the source of all goodness, love, peace, and joy, separation from Him means eternal existence without these qualities.

Making the Choice: Who Should You Be Following?

The Narrow Way

Jesus identified Himself as the only way to eternal life: "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it" Matthew 7:13-14

The narrow way is narrow not because God is exclusive but because truth is exclusive. Just as there is only one correct answer to a mathematical equation, there is only one way to be reconciled to God—through faith in Jesus Christ. All other paths, no matter how sincere or well-intentioned, lead to destruction.

The Call to Decision

The question echoes through eternity: "What will you do with Jesus who is called Christ?" (Matthew 27:22) This is not a question that can be answered tomorrow or next week or when you feel ready. It is a question that demands an answer today, because today may be your last opportunity to choose.

If you choose Christ, you choose light over darkness, life over death, truth over lies, grace over wrath. You choose to live in transparency rather than secrecy, to submit to divine sovereignty rather than assert human autonomy. You choose eternal joy rather than eternal sorrow.

If you reject Christ, you choose by default to remain in darkness, under wrath, separated from God. You choose to face eternity alone, bearing the full weight of your own sin, experiencing forever the consequences of rebellion against your Creator.

The Moment of Truth

The Day of Decision is not some future event—it is today. Every moment you draw breath is another moment of grace, another opportunity to choose light over darkness. But that grace will not continue indefinitely. The clock of opportunity is winding down, and soon the door that is now open will be closed forever.

The choice is binary: Faith or Fear, Light or Darkness, Life or Death, With God or Without God. There is no middle ground, no Switzerland of the soul. Indecision is itself a decision—a choice for darkness by default.

Who should you be following? The answer is clear from Scripture: "And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12) Jesus Christ is not one option among many; He is the only option for salvation.

Are you 1000000% positive about your choice? If there is any doubt, any hesitation, any uncertainty, then the choice is clear. Choose light while there is still time. Choose life while breath remains in your body. Choose Christ while the offer of grace still stands.

The consequences of this choice extend far beyond this brief life into the endless ages of eternity. There are no do-overs, no second chances, no appeals process. The choice you make today determines where you will spend forever.

Choose this day whom you will serve. Choose light over darkness. Choose life over death. Choose Christ over self. Choose while you still can, because the Day of Decision may end before the sun sets on another day.

The time has come. The choice is yours. What will it be?

"Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" Joshua 24:15

THE RESTRAINER IS LIFTING

A Call to Choose Your Side Before Time Expires

The Divine Warning: Leave Your Hate at the Door

IN OUR HOME EVERYONE IS WELCOMED, LOVED, AND ADORED, AND, WE INSIST, EVERYONE MUST LEAVE THEIR HATE AT THE DOOR. WE HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR ALL FORMS OF HATE.

This is not merely a house rule for polite society—this is a divine standard that exposes the fundamental choice every human being must make. The presence of hate reveals allegiance to the kingdom of darkness, while the pursuit of truth and love reveals alignment with the Kingdom of Light. It is that simple, and there is no middle ground, no neutral territory where one can harbor hate while claiming to serve the God of love.

“Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer; and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:15) The Scripture draws a direct line from hate to murder to eternal separation from God. This is why hate cannot be tolerated—it is the seed of destruction that, when allowed to grow, produces death in every form.

The Restrainer: God’s Gift of Time

In His mercy, God has placed a restrainer upon the earth—not merely to limit evil, but to provide humanity with time to make the ultimate choice. This restrainer is multifaceted: it is time itself, it is His appointed seasons (Moed), it is the Spirit of Truth, and it is the Spirit of Grace working in the hearts of humanity to draw them to repentance.

2 Thessalonians 2:6-7 “And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way.”

The “mystery of lawlessness” is not hidden—it is the spirit of rebellion against God’s authority that has been at work since the Garden of Eden. What has been restrained is its full manifestation, its complete unleashing upon humanity. But this restraint is temporary, and when it is removed, the choice will be made for those who have refused to make it themselves.

The Seven Days: We Stand at the Threshold

God established the pattern of seven days in creation, and this pattern reverberates through all of Scripture as a divine template for human history. We have lived through six days—six thousand years of human self-governance, human wisdom, human solutions to spiritual problems. None of it has worked. Every human system has failed, every human philosophy has crumbled, every human savior has died.

Now we stand at the threshold of the seventh day—the Sabbath rest of God, when Jesus Christ will reign as King over all the earth for one thousand years. “For He is Lord of the Sabbath” (Matthew 12:8), and He is about to claim His rightful throne.

Revelation 20:4 “Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.”

This is not metaphor—this is prophecy. The age of human self-rule is ending, and the age of divine rule is beginning. The question is: will you be among those who reign with Him, or among those who face His judgment?

The Great Deception: The First Transgender

The Bible reveals that Lucifer is the original deceiver, the first to rebel against his created identity and purpose. In his pride, he sought to be “like the Most High” (Isaiah 14:14, NASB), refusing to accept his role as a created being and attempting to transform himself into something he was never intended to be.

This spirit of deception—the rejection of divine design and the pursuit of self-created identity—is now manifesting in unprecedented ways across human society. The transgender movement is not merely a social phenomenon; it is a spiritual manifestation of Lucifer’s original rebellion against the Creator’s design.

Genesis 1:27 “God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.”

This verse establishes divine binary—male and female, created in God’s image. To reject this binary is to reject the image of God Himself and to embrace the image of the deceiver who first rejected his created identity.

Romans 1:25 “For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.”

The transgender movement is the ultimate expression of this exchange—rejecting the truth of God’s creative design and worshiping the creature (self) rather than the Creator. It is humanity following in Lucifer’s footsteps, imaging his rebellion and his rejection of divine authority.

The Battle Lines Are Drawn

We are witnessing the exposure of what has long been hidden in darkness. Those who have harbored rebellion against God’s design are being forced into the light, compelled to declare their allegiance publicly. This is not happening by accident—this is divine orchestration, forcing humanity to choose sides before the restrainer is completely removed.

Luke 8:17 “For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.”

The comfortable middle ground is disappearing. The days of privately harboring rebellion while publicly maintaining respectability are ending. Every person is being forced to answer the question: Do you stand with God’s design or against it? Do you submit to His authority or reject it? Do you serve His Kingdom or your own?

Charlie Kirk: A Voice Silenced by Darkness

In the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, we witness the ancient pattern of evil silencing truth through violence. Charlie represented free speech, open dialogue, and the courage to engage with opposing viewpoints in the light of public discourse. His assassin represented the opposite—cowardice, hiding, and the satanic impulse to destroy what threatens the darkness.

John 8:44 “You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies”

The assassin followed the pattern of his spiritual father—murder as a means of silencing truth. Like Cain, who killed Abel because “his deeds were evil, and his brother’s were righteous” (1 John 3:12), the assassin could not tolerate the light that Charlie’s voice represented.

But notice the contrast: Charlie stood in the light, invited dialogue, engaged openly with those who disagreed. The assassin hid in darkness, struck from concealment, then ran and scattered like a cockroach when the light is turned on. This is the fundamental difference between those who serve light and those who serve darkness—one seeks exposure, the other seeks hiding.

The Call to Gen Z: Come Out from Behind Your Keyboards

To the generation that has grown up in digital shadows, hiding behind screen names and anonymous profiles, the call is clear: The Monday morning armchair quarterback routine has gotten real old. Come out from behind the shadow and draw your line in the sand—which kingdom do you serve?

You have been given every advantage—access to information, platforms for expression, opportunities for influence that previous generations could never have imagined. But many of you have squandered these gifts, using them to hide rather than to shine light, to tear down rather than to build up, to spread hatred rather than truth.

Matthew 5:14-16 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”

The time for hiding is over. The time for digital cowardice is finished. The spiritual battle raging in our world demands that every person choose a side and stand for something meaningful. You cannot remain neutral while evil advances. You cannot stay silent while truth is under attack. You cannot hide behind keyboards while the kingdom of darkness seeks to destroy everything good and righteous.

Stop Cutting Bait and Start Fishing

Jesus called His disciples to be “fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19), but too many who claim His name have never thrown a line in the water. They talk about fishing, study fishing techniques, debate fishing strategies, but they never actually catch any fish.

The same is true in the spiritual realm. Too many believers have become professional bait-cutters, endlessly preparing but never actually engaging in the work of the Kingdom. They attend conferences, read books, watch videos, and engage in theological discussions, but they never actually lead anyone to Christ, never actually stand for righteousness in public, never actually confront the darkness that is advancing in their communities.

James 2:17 “Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.”

Your faith is demonstrated not by your theological knowledge but by your actions. Your allegiance is proven not by your words but by your works. The world is watching to see whether your Christianity is real or just another form of digital virtue signaling.

The Two Kingdoms: Make Your Choice

The choice before us is not complex, though it is costly. On one side stands the Kingdom of God—righteousness, truth, life, light, love, and eternal joy. On the other stands the kingdom of self—rebellion, deception, death, darkness, hatred, and eternal separation from all that is good.

Joshua 24:15 “Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

Joshua didn’t offer his people a third option. He didn’t suggest they could remain neutral. He didn’t propose a compromise position. He demanded a choice: serve the Lord or serve something else, but choose today.

The same demand is before us now. The restrainer is being lifted. The comfortable middle ground is disappearing. The time for decision is now, not later, not when you feel ready, not when circumstances improve, but now.

The Consequences Are Eternal

This is not a game. This is not a theoretical exercise. This is not a philosophical debate. The choice you make determines where you will spend eternity—either in the presence of God or separated from Him forever.

2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 “Dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power.”

For those who choose the kingdom of darkness, who support rebellion against God’s design, who mock His truth and authority, the Bible is clear about their destiny. They will receive exactly what they have chosen—separation from God and all goodness, forever.

For those who choose the Kingdom of Light, who submit to God’s authority and design, who embrace His truth despite the cost, the promise is equally clear: “In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever” Psalm 16:11

The Harpazo Approaches: The Final Gathering

For those who believe in the imminent return of Christ for His bride, the urgency reaches fever pitch. The Harpazo—the catching away of the church—represents the moment when the restrainer is finally removed and the full fury of hell is unleashed upon the earth.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.”

If this event is as close as many believe, then the time for choosing sides is measured in days, not years. After the church is removed, those who remain will face unrestrained evil, unhindered deception, and unprecedented pressure to bow to the kingdom of darkness.

The Challenge: Shut Your Mouth and Do Something

To every person reading these words, especially those who have been content to watch from the sidelines, the challenge is direct and uncompromising: SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND GO DO SOMETHING.

Stop talking about what’s wrong with the world and start doing something to make it right. Stop complaining about the darkness and start being a light. Stop criticizing those who are taking a stand and start taking one yourself.

The world doesn’t need more critics; it needs more warriors. The Kingdom of God doesn’t need more commentators; it needs more soldiers. The battle for truth doesn’t need more spectators; it needs more participants.

1 Corinthians 16:13 “Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.”

This is a call to spiritual manhood and womanhood—not gender roles, but spiritual maturity that takes responsibility, shows courage, and acts with strength in the face of opposition.

Good Luck With That: A Warning to the Rebellious

To those who choose to align with the kingdom of darkness, who support rebellion against God’s design, who mock His truth and authority, the message is simple: GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.

You are choosing to stand against the Creator of the universe. You are choosing to fight against the One who holds all power, all authority, and all judgment in His hands. You are choosing to align yourselves with a defeated enemy whose final destination is eternal torment.

Revelation 20:10 “And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

This is not a threat—it is a promise. The outcome of the cosmic battle between light and darkness has already been determined. The question is not who will win, but which side you will be on when the victory is celebrated.

The Final Call: Stand Up and Be Counted

The comfortable days of passive Christianity are over. The luxury of private faith is ending. The option of spiritual neutrality is being removed. Every person is being forced to declare their allegiance, to choose their kingdom, to stand for something or fall for anything.

To the keyboard warriors who have been hiding behind digital courage: your hiding place is being exposed. Come out into the light and be counted.

To the fence-sitters who have been waiting for someone else to take a stand: the fence is being removed. Choose a side.

To the compromisers who have been trying to serve two masters: your divided loyalty is being exposed. You cannot serve God and mammon.

To the mockers who have been ridiculing truth: your day of reckoning is approaching. Every idle word will be accounted for.

Matthew 12:36-37 “But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

The Moment of Truth Has Arrived

The restrainer is lifting. The seventh day is dawning. The Harpazo approaches. The final battle lines are being drawn. Every person must choose which kingdom they will serve, which king they will follow, which destiny they will embrace.

You cannot remain neutral. Indecision is itself a decision—a choice for darkness by default. You cannot wait for more information, more time, more favorable circumstances. The information is complete, the time is now, the circumstances are what they are.

The question that echoes through eternity demands an answer: Which kingdom will you choose?

Choose quickly, choose wisely, choose finally—because the Day of Decision is upon us all, and soon the opportunity to choose will be gone forever.

SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND GO DO SOMETHING meaningful with your life. The Kingdom of God is advancing, and it needs soldiers, not spectators. The battle is real, the stakes are eternal, and the time is now.

Make your choice. Take your stand. Fight your fight.

The restrainer is lifting. The King is coming. The time is now.

Joshua 24:15 “Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve… but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD”
