I am not a smart man, at least, not according to my own standards. I am, what I would consider, a jack of many trades, but a master of none. For instance, I am a cook, but I am no chef; I am a wine-maker, but I am no connoisseur. I know a bit of this, and a little of that - but there is so much to know and learn - it becomes overwhelming. And often, when I am satisfied with knowing little of a certain subject, I am satisfied and I move on to something new. I have not been one to put all of my attention and dedication into a single thing - with a very few notable exceptions. I am OK with this, and God has been OK with this. How do I know that God has been OK with this? For 2 reasons, because God has not brought against me any objections in the matter and because it has worked out well for me.
I am convinced that the more we know, the more we don't know. I have not met face-to-face with a man or woman who looked for God in the land of the living. They are satisfied with believing that they will know God and know why God does what God does when they are dead. This line of thinking did not satisfy me, nor did it resonate with me. Remember, I am Jack - I prefer to know a little of something than nothing at all. Opinions and beliefs are the equivalent of not knowing at all - so this is also unsatisfactory. I would rather know a little than know nothing at all. This character trait was acceptable to God, and because I inquired of God to know a little, God revealed much. I lack nothing from God.
With regard to those few notable exceptions, if God has a particular task for me, then I become dedicated to said task. For instance, God is about to put an end to both religion and faithlessness on this planet. When God raised up Brent from the dead, and then me, God made it clear to the world that God is fed up with the murdering, the plundering, the oppressing, the idolatry, the slandering, the denigrating, and the godless faithlessness that pervades humanity from generation after generation. Why is God fed up with all this now, rather than say, a thousand years ago? For one, people are in a better position to accept the obvious - the same can not be said a thousand years ago when there weren't many people who would be willing to put scientific facts above beliefs. If God came a thousand years ago, then God would have had to wipe out the entire human race, as there would be no people or groups of people who would understand what God was doing. Rather, God will come in this generation, among those who have beliefs and know that their beliefs are nothing more than beliefs. It is probable that God will level a few cities and countries, and it will be obvious to many what God is doing. God is going to make it abundantly clear that God is the God of the living, in the land of the living, and not the dead. And if people still feel the need to pick up guns and machetes after the fact, then those nations will be dealt with accordingly.
People know what is good - it is why they feel bad when they do wrong. They see the error in their flesh, but they make no haste in correcting their issue. The nations err and err again, making excuses for their many bad dealings, all the while having heart palpitations for year after year. But the day is coming when all their bad behavior catches up to them, and they will have the first signs of heart disease. Their feet will swell as they keep murdering, while calling it 'justice'. Angina will set in as they keep oppressing the poor and those who do not act like them. Their chest will tighten as they keep offering up religion and lip service to God. There will be no doctors to help them with the pain, nor will they remove the fat and excess meat from their diet to remedy the problem. So finally, at long last, they will clench their chest in agonizing pain as their heart dies within them.
Yahweh said to me, "They will hear, but they will not understand."
