A Little Help
Is GOD the Little Help who redeems His People from Judgment? Let's examine.

SUMMARY:
The Bible appears to be equating Little Help with the redeemption of the Elect at the time Christ is revealed. Falling would be pointing to the judgment that first began at the house of God when the believers were tried and calling on the name of the Lord. At the same time, many who might give appearance of salvation and knowledge of end-time events come under the wrath of God.
