are ready for what is coming upon this earth
Bring as many as will come along with you on the narrow path
The time is very short
If you seek the Lord you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart

Cleanse your heart from bitterness and strife
Do not seek to save your life, but lay it down for the Lord

“These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not lose faith.
They shall put you out of the synagogues;
yea, the time cometh that whosoever killeth you
will think that he doeth God service.
And these things will they do unto you,
because they have not known the Father, nor Me.
But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come,
ye may remember that I told you of them.
And these things I said not unto you at the beginning,
because I was with you.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it:
and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
