Tribulation Saints And Partners

Yes, there will be tribulation saints who are faithful until the end. They will be perfected in the trials of personal endurance and conduct.

Over the years I have looked at different individuals and asked myself if I could go through tribulation with them? Would they betray me? Would they betray others? Would they themselves prove faithful as a friend? It is important that we ask ourselves these questions, because many will become traitors in the endtimes. Many things will turn them into being traitors.

1.) Jealously has been the #1 tool used by traitors. If they cannot have the honor, the prestige, the recognition, that another person has, they want them destroyed so they can replace them. Many a man and woman were sent to their early graves over the demon of jealousy. It is the same among Christian churches. In some countries the traitors turn against a church member or a pastor and report them to the police or to other Christian haters. Many a pastor has been brutally murdered, killed, because a jealous church member wanted them out of the way. We are warned about traitors in the endtime. Judas was a traitor. And look what he did. We can expect traitors who will rise up against men of God and church members and cause them great sorrow and hurt. This is one reason why when we see jealousy in the actions of any church member or minister, we must judge them not trustworthy to go through tribulation with.

2.) Hate is the #2 took used by traitors. Jesus warned that we would be hated of all nations for his name's sake. We expect this from the ungodly and the world, but we do not expect it from Christians and church members. We certainly do not expect it from men who call themselves ministers. Hate masquerades itself in many ways. One of the best ways to hide it is to claim they are just exposing some evil or some sin they think should merit others to hate the person. So they will generate an attitude of distrust and or dishonor and by this method turn people to dislike the person who was targeted. This is all motivated out of hate. When we see busy bodies, gossipers, tale bearers, saying things to create a division or discord: it is time to mark that person. They will never be the kind of person you can go through tribulation with.

3.) Heady & High Mindedness is the #3 tool used  by traitors. They are hot headed. They are bull headed. They are insubordinate to authority. They do not bridle their tongue. They are boasters. They are proud. They cannot be corrected. They are above counseling. They think themselves to have the will of God when all along they are working the will of the devil. These bring desension and discord on nearly everything to create a polarization of people to agree with them against the pastor or other church member(s). A heady person is one who never sees his wrong but sees the faults of others. So he or she looks for faults to belittle others while trying to make themselves look good. This elevates them in their mind above the person they want to be head over, heady...

In these perilous times, we can look around us and easily check the spirituality of those with whom we may go through tribulation. It is best to know those who labor among us for the precise reason of knowing if this person or that person will betray us unto death if we make them the least bit angry or mad?

One of the things I have noticed over the years is manifestation. A person will manifest what they are no matter how hard they try to cover up that they are not tribulation trustworthy. If these individuals cause the least bit of church trouble make them. Do not get close to them. Do not include them in the inner circle of friends. These could very well be your persecution and death. Once a person turns you in, like Judas, they may feel justified because you crossed them up and they will make you pay. They can hide as did Judas. But like Judas they will go to hell.

As we draw nearer to the time of tribulation, look about you. Is God showing you people who you cannot trust? Is he showing you people you can? As you continue to work out your own soul salvation, keep in mind there are many traitors around us.

With the help of Jesus we will make it through. But we must use wisdom in our selection of close friends.
