Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet
No one knows the exact date of the return of Jesus but we do know seasons.
Paul describes it as "when they shall say peace and safety," sudden destruction comes upon them as a woman in travail with child and they shall not escape. I Thess. 4
As that pregnant woman's time is coming and she cannot escape, neither can they escape.
And who are "they"?
Adulterers, fornicators, homosexuals & lesbians, people who love and make a lie, and all people in churches who eliminate specific scriptures or twist scripture so sin can come in and sit in the congregations and church groups can grow in size ... antichrist and anarchy in the churches today.
Never before, in the history of the USA, has there been a time where homosexuals and lesbians have been so protected and even approved by the masses as now. They have to be feeling "peace and safety" ... they won!
And what about the man who marries a divorced woman ... In 1936, Edward, the King of England had to renounce the throne of England in order to marry a divorced woman. The masses at that time in England would not consider having a divorced woman as their queen. Now I suspect it wouldn't matter much to the masses of people in England. Thus, "peace and safety" .
What would have happened in 1950's had a woman left her children to move in and live sexually with a man? Ask Ingrid Bergman how society viewed this ... except she's dead, but you can read about it online. Wikipedia... The internet encyclopedia ... Ingrid Bergman ... She was banned from making movies in USA because people in USA at that time objected so strongly. (1950-56)
And what of the celebration of marriages? It is hard to celebrate when the couple have been living together and having sex for several months or even years, and in some cases even have babies.
When a young woman today speaks of "her boy friend," what is our thought? Often they even have the same address.
We can say all this destruction and mass approval and acceptance of sin in general came since WWII ... 1940's.

Something else very significant happened in the churches ...
We know antichrist has been in the church groups since the days of Paul, Peter, and John for they each spoke of "many" antichrists among them.
Paul even said after his departing, he knew men would move in and take over in the church, "speaking perverse things" to draw other men after themselves in the church. Acts 20
Antichrist has been in the churches, all churches, for a long time, where certain scripture is removed to fit their doctrine.
In approximately 1963, The Faith Movement began and moved into churches. It is probably the largest, fastest growing movement ever seen in churches since the first days of the early church of Paul, Peter, John.
Why is it so attractive to people?
Basically in that movement you are taught if you have faith you can be as God, getting what you desire, keeping all destruction away from your house and family. All this can be done through scriptures. You are taught that you, as a believer, have authority over all the works of the devil. Sounds very good. And it is very appealing. There is just one problem: they do this without consideration of the will of God and without the Holy Spirit giving you that scripture. You learn to hunt a scripture to stand on to get what you want.
There is another problem: It doesn't work. But when you fail, you learn you would have succeeded if only you have more faith. So you work to have more faith.
The "Faith Movement" is the primary example of antichrist in the churches today.
II Thess. 2 ... NASB
Let no one in any way deceive you, for it (the day of the LORD) will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.
(KJV) ... he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. II Thess. 2:4
(KJV) ... he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. II Thess. 2:4
This is exactly what the faith movement does ... sit there showing themselves they are God by use of scripture to get what they want. It seems so religious ... and not only that, you have the hope of getting what you want in a very religious way ...
And what about that authority as a believer ... stopping devil from destroying your property by wind, hail and "natural" forces?
A slight problem: wind is from God ... hail is from God ... earthquakes are from God.
"OH!"
*****
And what about those illnesses the devil sends to attack your family.
Here is a story told me by Vinita Copeland (Kenneth Copeland's mother) ... A child in their faimly was very sick. The faith movement people were standing about claiming scripture and rebuking devils in the name of Jesus. Vinita said to me, "But the child was dying."
Vinita said she went into another room, fell down on her knees, and begged God to let the child live.
*****
In approximately 1982, I was shattered by God when God said to me:
"Kenneth Copeland is antichrist."
At that time, we thought there was "one" man who was antichrist. But just as the devil is a spirit in many men, antichrist is a spirit in many men.
On Kenneth Copeland's web site, he proudly shows pictures with his arm around the current pope of the Catholic church. Incredible!
(In approximately 1982, I sent a letter to Vinita telling her I did not believe Kenneth Copeland was born again. No response from Vinita. She is dead now.)
I heard a report in 2016, that one of the leaders in the Southern Baptist Convention of ministers had joined affiliation with the Catholic pope. A Baptist woman told me how horrified she was at this.
One world church of all faiths?

But focused where we really live ... trying to find a church to attend.
Since 1982, I have hunted for a church to attend. Each time I went to a service, I went with a happy heart, joyful to be there among the church. Without exception. I witnessed pastors twisting scripture, omitting scripture, speaking other doctrines away from Bible. In each case, I contacted pastor in private, citing the scripture which was mishandled. In each case, pastor became very angry, though admitting he did this, he showed no shame at all.
I was bewildered in what I kept experiencing at churches. A detailed report of what I experienced can be found in the book "Building Your House On The Word Of God", chapter 10.
In April, 2017, God said one word to me which caused me to understand what I had been seeing for the past 40 years as I tried to find a church to attend. The word given me by God to explain this was: "restraint".
I recalled that word "restraint" was in II Thess. 2 ... (NASB) ...
And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed.
For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. Then that lawless one will be revealed
The restraint against antichrist was the scripture. When portions of scripture were removed from the church, lawlessness moved into the churches ... thus the apostasy in the churches.
You can easily test each church you attend by this:
Do they permit men to marry divorced women?
Jesus said if a man marries a divorced woman, he commits adultery.
If a woman remarries after divorce, she commits adultery.
If a man divorces a faithful wife, she will commit adultery if she remarries, and the husband who divorced this faithful wife will be the cause of her adultery.
Mt. 5:32 ... Jesus says ... But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
These apostate churches have found ways, they think, to explain this doctrine of Christ away. But I've never heard them explain away the statement that the man who marries the divorced woman commits adultery. (they just try to ignore that)
Still, this is the easiest way for you to see what the church you current attend is really doing.
So far, I have experienced the apostasy in the Faith Movement churches, Baptist church, Church of Christ, Assembly of God, and several non-denomination churches.
And I have never heard any church teach: The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
The apostasy and antichrist in the church groups.
The Wrath of God spoken of so often in Bible comes upon the transgressors in both the world and the churches.
If you sit in an apostate church today, where scripture has been eliminated in part, you are sitting in the path of the wrath of God.
And why would you want to sit there where scripture is cast aside?
You will not be guiltless in God's sight by continuing to sit in apostate churches and disrespect the Word of God this way.

In 2017, I said to God, "I wish there was some way I could make the antichrist messages stronger."
Immediately I heard, "Tell the poison gas dream."
The poison gas dream:
In 1979, God gave me the following terrifying dream:
Destruction was everywhere.
I went into a meeting room where a meeting was going on. A man was speaking to a room filled with people. I went in and began to listen.
A second man rushed in and said: "Stop ... Wait ... Can't you see ... It's too late ... It's already begun."
The first man resumed speaking.
I went into a meeting room where a meeting was going on. A man was speaking to a room filled with people. I went in and began to listen.
A second man rushed in and said: "Stop ... Wait ... Can't you see ... It's too late ... It's already begun."
The first man resumed speaking.
I looked out the window to see what had "already begun."
There was a tall pole with a yellow civil defense speaker at top of the pole. A gas was coming out of the speaker. I knew it was poisonous and would kill the people. It was coming directly toward us!
The shocking thing was the speaker that was set there for the purpose of warning us was being used as the instrument which dispersed the gas that was poison and would kill us!
I looked at the man seated next to me. He had a big grin on his face and was looking directly at the man who was speaking to the group. But then I saw this man was a corpse, though he looked alive. He was already dead!
I looked about the room at the other people and realized they were all dead.
As I sat back in my chair and listened to the man speaking I began to feel sleepy and I knew as I sat there among them this was killing me too.
God was showing me the anarchy in the church groups, at the time of the dream, 1979. The destruction in the churches was everywhere, even at that time. And it is much worse today.
