The Florida revival

"Signs, signs, everywhere a sign........blockin out the scenery, breakin my mind." Now what was it that Jesus taught about seeking a "sign"?
Matt 12:38-39
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:

Hi! Barbara
I think I also remember reading somewhere something on these lines; “Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short. Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or ‘There He is,’ do not believe him. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Behold, I have told you in advance. So if they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Behold, He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe them. For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather." (Matt.24:22-28). "Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?" (Isa.53:1).
God bless you sister in our joint walk in Christ.
Love in Christ Jesus.

Hello Barbara,
It seems that the Florida revival might blow over to Taiwan, where I live and still very reluctantly attend church. I still go 'cause of my wife and the place she still finds herself spiritually. But yesterday morning, the pastor and his wife, out of nowhere, made public that the congregation should get themselves ready for the coming revival, which will be accompanied by signs and wonders.
While sitting and listening to them speaking I went through my Bible and found the same scripture you quoted above.
I would like to know from you, and others, what you make of this scripture? He gave a warning and then left. Right?
What do you think Jonas' sign entails?
Is this revival God's way of giving some over to Satan for their destruction?

Hi! Triton
You seem to be worried about this so-called revival and your pastor putting the fear of his hell into you all in that church. Trust God there is no such thing in the Scriptures so there ain't no revival, there is mention of an apostasy which he is a very big part of: "Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction..." (2Thess.2:3).
It will probably blow into Taiwan as it will most likely blow in everywhere else, but it will also blow out just as fast. Expect signs and wonders that is bound to happen, we have been warned, its right there in your Bible as it is in mine: “Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short. Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or ‘There He is,’ do not believe him. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Behold, I have told you in advance. So if they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Behold, He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe them. For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather." (Matt.24:22-28). "Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?" (Isa.53:1).
Fear is a bad thing it is not of God. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Josh.1:9).
You have come out of their midst so why are you going to their church to listen to all their satanic rubbish, believe God? I can see no connection with the sign of Jonah and what he has been parroting about.
God bless you brother and sister in our joint walk in Christ.
Love in Christ Jesus.
