Speak Now, Or Forever Hold Your Peace

Welcome! Thank you for taking the time again today to read this blog. I want to be honest with you as I always have been: The following blog which I will link to at the end I agree with wholeheartedly. I believe that we as Christians must speak what the Lord is saying in this hour. We must first seek the heart of the Father and make sure that our convictions are what He would say. Then, we must shout from the rooftops what our Lord has taught us. And we must do it quickly. Time is of the essence now more than ever as you saw when you read my blog that I posted last night:

Certain parts of the blog remind me of a famous poem by a Germon anti-nazi Theologian by the name of Martin Niemoller. Perhaps, you have read his poem before. I also posted an article before on here which gives us the text of the poem. However, I want us to consider for prophetic purposes this text again and in light of this blog. I will post the text below and the link to the original site where I got it from. Here it is:


This poem is called, First They came for the Communists.

First they came for the Communists,

and I didn’t speak up,

because I wasn’t a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews,

and I didn’t speak up,

because I wasn’t a Jew.

Then they came for the Catholics,

and I didn’t speak up,

because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me,

and by that time there was no one

left to speak up for me.


Now, here’s the link for works cited purposes:

Now, I will post the blog. Please bathe this in prayer. God bless!

Final Thoughts

Folks, like I’ve stated before: I respect your oppinions as to who to vote for, but like Moses of old and so many of the righteous in days past and even in the present, it is my duty to speak the truth in love. Therefore, if I have offended you, I ask for your forgiveness. This is not my intention. However, my intention is to lay before you the choices we have in this election as I did last night and continue to do today. I now would in light of all of this like to show you the following Scripture:


“I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you that I have set before you life and death, the blessings and the curses; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live”
‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭30:19‬ ‭AMPC‬‬
https://www.bible.com/8/deu.30.19.ampc

For those that listened to Moses’ address, this was talking about things such as obeying the Ten Commandments. In a sense, this is still for us what is being discussed. Except, those that I’m writing to for the most part, I’m sure (the target audience for this blog is Christians) obeys the Ten Commandments. However, for us this is talking about things such as Abortion, gay marriage, Transgenderism, etc. etc. I want you to like I’ve said in times past go back and re-examine what the Scriptures say. Some that read this may agree with what I’m saying and what Mario is saying. However, although I respect your oppinions, I am obligated out of love and because the Bible instructs me to teach you and help you to make informed decisions as the Spirit leads. The article from Mario that I posted last night seems to imply that we should just automatically know that Biden is not the right choice. To me, this would cause some feelings in some people. All of us are guilty of thinking we know the truth and we don’t. So, this is why I instist that in every thing that we do, we ask the Spirit. This is why I presented it to you the way I did last night. God bless!

I am called as a Minister of the Gospel and an Intercessor. However, this is not about me. My life is dedicated to making Christ alone. This blog was called kingdomadvance.family.blog because I didn’t want my name on the blog like others do because I feel like it is not me living but Christ living through me.
