…and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land. But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return… – Isaiah 6:12,13

Certain of you have heard the gospel preached plainly and honestly, and yet you have never received it: is there not creeping over you a fatal indifference? Are not your hearts turning to stone? Possibly you are professors of religion, and yet you do not feel the power of it; what does this mean? If you are not a praying people, nor a holy people, and yet you are a professing people, what an awful doom awaits you!… Oh, shall it be so? Will you die? Dear hearers, I should not like to meet one of you at that day of judgment and have to feel that I preached you into a greater blindness than you might have known. Oh, be converted! Turn ye, turn ye, why will ye die? May God in infinite mercy speak to you that you may believe in Jesus now, lest that should come upon you which is spoken of by the prophet, “Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish!”

The tree is leveled by the axe; but weep not despairing tears, for it shall sprout again, for life is still in it. Even so the Church must live; truth must be victorious; purity must conquer, the Christ must reign. Behold, He cometh with clouds, and every eye shall see Him. Reject Christ if you will to-day, Oh ye who think yourselves so exceeding wise, but there is a people who love Him, a secret people who cling to Him; and when He comes, as come He must ere long, they will welcome Him and partake in His glory. ~ C.H. Spurgeon

      • I agree but others say it’s symbolic why don’t they see it as literal? Would you agree that if any Christian is not Pre Trib then they can’t say Maranatha doesn’t that word speak of the Pre Trib Rapture?

      • They don’t read the book of Revelation from God’s point of view, is my guess. They don’t see how it is possible that there are that many virgin Jewish young men from each tribe around today. I don’t understand it myself but God says it is going to be so.

        No, “Maranatha” can be said with post- and mid-trib believers. It means, “Come, Lord Jesus, come!” Everyone can say that, Brother.
