If you don't believe Jesus is humanity's savior, you may wonder why so many people are posting about the signs in Revelations. You may make fun of these people, laugh and joke about how stupid they are, etc. You should realize the ones who post these things know they will be laughed at right? Ever wonder why they still do it?
Ezekiel 3:16
And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, 17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. 18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. 20 Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. 21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul."CALLED TO BE A WATCHMAN"The prophet Ezekiel was “Called to be a Watchman” by God, over his people Israel. When many consider the position of “watchman”, they assume it to be one who only is sent to “care for the needs of the people, watch over them, pray for their needs, and tend to them as a shepherd tends to his flock”. But, the position of a “watchman” is far more than this for not only does it require a heart of love for the people and most importantly The Father, it also requires Boldness, diligence, fearlessness, dedication, obedience to YAHWEH our Father, and the ability to hear the voice of the Lord. In biblical times, a “Physical Watchman” was one who stood guarding the city wall, and upon sensing any immediate danger inside or outside of the walls, he would then sound an alarm to warn the people in advance of what lied ahead. The prophet Ezekiel was called by God to be a “Spiritual Watchman” over the people and much like the “Physical Watchman”, he to had to warn the people in advance of impending dangers.
Strategically within the Body of Christ, the Lord God has placed “Spiritual Watchmen” over his people. Like the “watchman” Ezekiel, such are called by God to warn the people of coming judgments, the importance of repentance, and the hidden dangers that lurk outside as well as INSIDE the body of Christ. They are called to speak forth the TRUTH without compromise, having no fear of what man may think, say, or attempt to do to them. You may know them as “Messengers of God”, or “Prophets of God” but nonetheless, the requirements to fill this position are that in the same. No one can call his/herself into the position of a “spiritual watchman”, as it is the Lord God’s Call, HIS CHOICE, for He knows the heart of every man and of every woman, and knows in advance just how far he/she will go to please Him. He knows the weaknesses and the strengths, the faithfulness and unfaithfulness, the willingness and unwillingness of every individual. The least likely person whom you may judge as “incapable”, or “outwardly weak”, will be the one the Lord will choose as He knows their inward capability, inward strengths and the faithfulness of their hearts towards Him.
There are many within the Body of Christ who’ve been “Called to be a Watchman”, and it is NOT an easy calling, nor a glamorous one as some may think. It is a very serious position of which one should not take lightly and has very serious consequences for disobedience. A watchman called of the Lord will often face ridicule and persecution, will be mocked and shamefully mistreated by the very ones they are called to “watch over” as many will despise their speech seeing it as a curse rather than a warning and will close their ears to the truth. However, he/she must have “boldness” and “fearlessness” when declaring what the Lord has spoken for the very reason that for such a one to choose to be silent, and not declare the warning of the Lord to the people when sensing the oncoming dangers, or knowing of the seemingly hidden dangers, he/she will suffer the consequences for the action of disobedience...........
