Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing? Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I am with you, saith the LORD of hosts: According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not. For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land ; And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.

Great Sermon! WHAT TRUTH!
"Satan tries to keep God's Church from doing the work He's called us to do." E.G. to give the Gospel to every creature. Don't let him set the world in your hearts which can happen from pitching your tent toward its moral decline; sitting on the sidelines becoming discouraged. Guard your heart when reading these articles (POSTED HEADLINES) else you'll fail the grace of God.
... be strong, ... saith the LORD; ... be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I (am) with you, saith the LORD of hosts: [According to] the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not. For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it (is) a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry (land); Haggai 2:4-6
... redeem the time for the days are evil.
Go ye and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, (even) unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:19-20.
People need the peace of the Lord, not a piece of your mind.
Grace is sufficient for all.
