This article shares a profound warning about the imminent return of Jesus Christ, emphasizing that He is both the lamb and the lion. It calls readers to repentance, intimacy with God, and readiness for the end times, highlighting the urgency of embracing His fire now before the door of grace closes.
When I encountered Jesus after leaving my body, He looked me in the eyes and said, "Gabriel, tell them I'm coming soon." In that moment, time seemed to fold like a piece of clothing — past, present, and future all wrapped together. It was clear that everything was about to be done.
Many people expect Jesus to be a gentle, smiling lamb. Indeed, He was the lamb 2,000 years ago and still is worthy of that title. However, He is also the lion of the tribe of Judah. When He comes, He will come with fire — a fire that will burn away all shame, guilt, pain, and sin.
It is with a heavy heart that I bring this warning. Few are ready for what is about to happen. Many are distracted by their own lives and fail to read the writing on the wall. We often plan for the future, retirement, and many years ahead, mocking those who warn us about the end times. But the truth is, there is no promise for tomorrow.
Jesus said in Revelation 3:19, "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Be zealous, therefore, and repent." This is not because He is angry or attacking us, but because He loves us deeply.
If you do not burn with His fire now, if you do not say yes to Him today, there may be no tomorrow for you. The door of grace and mercy is about to be shut. We see wars, rumors of wars, signs in the sky, and prophecies coming to pass, yet many dismiss these warnings.
Do not let insecurities wall off your intimacy with the Father. Instead, look to the hills from where your help comes and be quick to repent. True intimacy with God is not about obligation but about joy — talking with Him, being with Him, and living in His presence.
Recently, I was convicted during my time with God because I had been brash with my wife. I realized I cannot fellowship with love and then fail to walk in love with those God has given me. It is hypocritical to seek intimacy with God while neglecting the stewardship He has entrusted to me.
This walk with Christ is not just a Sunday activity or a claim; it is a lifestyle. We are called to live with Him daily, correcting ourselves quickly and humbly, and accepting correction from those who love us.
In my book 18 Days in Heaven, I describe Jesus' appearance as having medium-length hair, darker-toned skin, and a radiant white light of fire above His head. He walks among the lampstands, wearing a full-length robe with a golden sash. His hair and head are white like wool, shining like snow.
He is both the lamb and the lion. He calls out to us, saying, "My son, my daughter, come be with me. Fellowship with me. I am your shepherd, and I love you with everything I am. I will lead you out of darkness into the light."
Repent of your sin, for it is eating you alive. Turn from sin and turn to Him. Our time on earth is short, and the chaos and prophecies we see are signs of the times. This may be the last warning you receive.
Jesus is closer than you realize. Embrace His fire today, walk in love, and prepare your heart for His return.
Peace be with you.
