John,
Good Morning,
None in her (Babylon) are going to escape God’s judgment. I wonder if since a significant amount of governments on fiduciary currency are broke now, how God will use that. I saw an atheist on You Tube proposing separation of Church and state, which is a way for governments to get more money. (Glad you got us out of that issue, and glad I was for the move.) This guy, claiming to be an atheist, had an unbelievably harsh spirit. It was the first time I have seen that much harsh hatred in a person, (maybe one other time when a guy was defending the saved doctrine). Most atheists just act like they are intellectually superior. This was different, and with censoring power of the media, it is now easy to get a movement going, since opposition can be silenced. Watching first hand the Covid saga has taught me how easily that can be done.
Jesus help us be all the way “out of her” and help us see Christianity the way he does! I believe saying it verbally (“giving it a name”) is part of the exodus.
“For all nations have drunk of the wine of her whorish passion, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich on the strength of her luxury.”

Good morning, PJ.
I was reading Bro Wendell’s email this morning, and it is so sad how that harsh spirit, whether atheist, unbeliever, or wants-to-be an unbeliever, or Christian who wants to hold onto to the saved doctrine and beat you down with it, is just so determined to persuade (if that’s even the right word) people to believe the way they believe. I have had thoughts lately about what you said about “giving it a name”, and it feels good to just know and hear/feel the safety in that we “know” there is a name for that thing.
I have prayed and talked to Jesus about my feelings that came with that message, to keep me humble and compassionate towards those who don’t know what we know because the holy Ghost is still being given to some who are still in Christianity and who don’t know or haven’t been shown yet “to come out of her”. And I’ve thought about what you’ve said about it’s not for everyone to be here with us, and I thought, where will they go when they come out? They may never come out, but I sure hope to meet all my brothers and sisters one day and live forever with them. It makes me sad that they aren’t with us now to hear these wonderful things.
I’m so thankful for what we have been taught, and I pray to continue to hear and feel what is to come because there is so much more, I’m sure, that Jesus has for us! That’s exciting!
Thank you for all you give us.

Thank you, Tracey. That is the other side of the “come out of her” coin. How are we to feel toward and treat children of God who do not hear the call of their heavenly Father to come out? That is an important question because God loves all His children, even those (and there are very many) still entangled in the vain religious system called Christianity. And as you say, He still gives His Spirit to souls in Christianity who believe in His Son and obey him.
May God help us to have an humble, loving attitude toward others, whoever they are and wherever they may be.
