Eve in the Garden, Part 10:  The Call to Come Out

Subtitle:  The Remnant Always Hears the Voice

Floatie:  Entry Point

Revelation 18:4  Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, ‘Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, lest you share in her plagues;(ESV)

There’s always a voice.  It cuts through the noise.  It breaks through the system.

It’s not a shout—it’s a whisper.

A voice from heaven.

Calling not the rebellious, but the faithful.  Not the skeptics, but the sons and daughters of God who have been stuck inside a compromised structure for far too long.  This final post is not a warning.  It’s a rescue.


✒️ Forge:  Theological Framework

Exodus Is a Pattern, Not a One-Time Event

God always calls His people out before judgment falls.

  • He called Lot out of Sodom.
  • He called Israel out of Egypt.
  • He called the faithful remnant out of Babylon.

And He will call His people out of the end-time religious system that wears Christ’s name but denies His lordship.

2 Corinthians 6:17  Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you,(ESV)

God does not share His glory with systems that exploit His name.

The Voice Still Speaks

The call to come out isn’t always physical—it’s spiritual.

  • Come out of compromise.
  • Come out of celebrity cults.
  • Come out of passive participation in corrupted power.

This is the separation before the storm.


⚒️ Anvil:  Application and Challenge

How Do You Know It’s Time to Go?

Ask:

  • Can I stay and speak truth without being silenced?
  • Can I follow Christ without being forced to follow a man?
  • Can I hear the Shepherd’s voice—or has it been drowned in brand identity?

If the answer is no, you’re not in a church.  You’re in a trap.

What About Loyalty?

Leaving is not betrayal.  Staying, once you know, is.  Loyalty to a church must never outrank loyalty to Christ.  And if your leaving reveals the shallowness of your relationships— that’s not division.  That’s clarity.

God is not calling you to tear it all down.  He’s calling you to come out.  So He can build something purer.


🔥 Ember:  My Witness

The Moment I Let Go

I didn’t want to leave.  I had reasons.  People.  History.  Comfort.

But the tension kept building.  The Spirit kept stirring.  And the voice got louder.  Until I couldn’t pretend anymore.  I didn’t hate the church.  I loved it too much to stay silent.

So I left.  Not in anger.  Not in bitterness.  I left because I heard the call.  And I knew I’d rather walk in the wilderness with God than sit in Babylon with a crown.


The Series Closes, But the Work Begins

If you’ve followed this far, this series wasn’t just information.  It was invitation.

You’ve seen the whispers.  You’ve felt the warnings.  Now you hear the voice.

Come out.  Come back to Jesus—unfiltered, unbranded, unashamed.  Come back to the gospel that crucifies the flesh instead of celebrating it.  Come back to the altar that burns away performance and leaves only purity.

Because He’s coming back for a Bride—not a brand.  And He still knows His sheep by name.

John 10:27  My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.(ESV)

The voice is calling.

Come out.

Who am I?

I’ve walked a path I didn’t ask for, guided by a God I can’t ignore. I don’t wear titles well—writer, teacher, leader—they fit like borrowed armor. But I know this: I’ve bled truth onto a page, challenged what I was told to swallow, and led only because I refused to follow where I couldn’t see Christ.

I don’t see greatness in the mirror. I see someone ordinary, shaped by pain and made resilient through it. I’m not above anyone. I’m not below anyone. I’m just trying to live what I believe and document the war inside so others know they aren’t alone.

If you’re looking for polished answers, you won’t find them here.
But if you’re looking for honesty, tension, paradox, and a relentless pursuit of truth,
you’re in the right place.

If you’re unsure of what path to follow or disillusioned with the world today and are willing to walk with me along this path I follow, you’ll never be alone. Everyone is welcome and invited to participate as much as they feel comfortable with.

Now, welcome home. I’m Don.
