AMEN! Well spoken, Earendel.Preparation begins NOW. A body must learn to listen to the Spirit in little things NOW so He can teach us when the real biggies are upon us. I do not expect to wake up one morning and BOOM! persecution would be upon us all over. It will creep in slowly, almost unawares unless we are alert and can see the handwriting on the wall and are being prepared. And this preparation requires spending much time with the LORD and in his word now.God bless....and may we all be diligent in being found faithful..ginnyrose
