TRANSFORMED

     And after the death of Jesus on the cross, He was buried in a tomb.
     Now:  if you will get in the tomb with Jesus, you will understand how we are dead to trespasses and sin, and, just as Christ arose from death, we, upon our acceptance of Him for the forgiveness of sin, arise from the death of sin being born anew.  The Holy Spirit indwells us and we  arise from spiritual death to walk in newness of life---free from the burden of sin and no more guilt.
    And just as Christ came into this world one way, He returned to Heaven a different way.  We, therefore, come to Christ one way, and we walk a different way.
    As the Word of the Lord says,
    Be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.

TWO-MINUTE WARNING

     On November 18, 1956, Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev expressed the socialist idea by saying:  "We will bury you without firing a shot."
     Nancy Pelosi said:  "church-going rednecks attending the town hall meetings, and I've got to say they make me want to puke."
     Norman Mattoon Thomas, presidential candidate for the Socialist Party said in 1984, "the American people will never knowingly adopt socialism.  But, under the name of "liberalism," they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."
     God has blessed the United States more than any nation in the history of the universe!
     God has blessed the United States with more churches and more copies of the Word of God than any nation in all of recorded history!
     Children around the world are experiencing pain and great sorrow and nobody weeps for them!
     People of the United States have hung signs on their front doors that read:  DO NOT DISTURB.
     Men have changed God's Word to make it say what they want it to say and God is not happy about that!
     Men changed God's Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday and God is not happy about that!
     Americans are trampling the blood of Christ and the blood of the martyrs and God is not happy about that!
     The worship of idols is an abomination to God and churches are worshipping idols!
     The enemy is in the camp and people in churches do not even know the enemy is among us!
     The world church that is rising is an abomination unto the Lord!  It is a system of Satanic worship, witchcraft, sorcery, demonology!
     But in America, we watch television.  We entertain ourselves with movies, sports, social functions, and have a good time.  
     Only in America are bloggers like myself considered to be no more than that bunch of silly born again Christians and Bible-thumpers:  or---as Nancy Pelosi calls us---"church-going rednecks".
     Personally, however, I consider that a compliment unto the Lord.
     Jesus said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.  (Luke 23:28)
    
 

THINGS HIDDEN

     And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day:  and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.  (Genesis 3: 8)
     Why do young children run and hide from parents?   And how do parents know that their kids have been up to something just because of the silence of their kids?
     Why do thieves wait for the cover of darkness?
     Why is it that armies wait for darkness before launching attacks upon their enemies?
     Why is it said that certain people have come out of the closets?  What are they doing in darkness?
     Why is it said that sin loves darkness?
     Why is it that when the preacher or priest arrives at your home unannounced, you say, "Wait a minute"?  Why do you run and hide something or put on clothes?
     Why is it said that the Devil likes religion?  Is it because of the darkness?
     Why are hundreds of Christian churches deserting Christ to lock arms with religions of darkness?
     Why do so many preachers and priests not teach about the Light of Jesus?  Why are they leading their people in darkness?
     In a passage of the Holy Scriptures, Jesus speaks about a group of Jews that are not Jews?
     Could Jesus also say there are Christians that are not Christians?
     What do people mean when they say the Devil is dancing down the isles and turning cartwheels between the pews?
     Why do people say they are Christians, yet they are uncomfortable if the topic is about the Son of God?  Could it possibly be they are still in darkness?
     Adam and Eve KNEW they had sinned against God and they were hiding in darkness.
     Because of the work of the Holy Spirit, at this very moment you KNOW that Christ is not your Saviour, or you know that He is.
    Because of the work of the Holy Spirit, at this very moment you KNOW Christ is not your Saviour and therefore you hide in your religion as a cover of darkness to avoid facing God with your sin and believing that your way to heaven will get you there.
    For the past 2000 years, the Holy Spirit has been revealing Christ to the minds of people and they KNOW about Him and people continue to hide in places of darkness.
     Pride is therefore the evidence of things hidden in darkness and darkness is the evidence of evil.
    In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus taught us to say:  Our Father, deliver us from evil.
    May God grant you grace today to believe that.

THINGS FUTURE

     You know, there is a book available that you can read and know the future; and as things begin to happen, you can say, I read a book about this.  And as events unfold, you will say this is just like the book, chapter by chapter.
     For a preview, the book opens with a man having a vision.   Futher along, however, you will know more about it.
    You will read about four horsemen and each horse is a different color.  That's kinda strange, isn't it?
    Anyway, you will read about vials and bowls, thunderings and lightnings, earthquakes, and a great earthquake.
    There are three parts of special interest:  a great tribulation, a great war, and a great white throne.
    You will read about a great red dragon, a leopard that roars like a lion, and a way prepared for the kings of the east.
     There is a part about a place of darkness where people gnawed their tongues for pain.
     Also, you will read about scorcery and witchcraft, an image of a man that actually speaks, of how people bow and worship a beast, a church that sits on seven mountains, and a woman riding a beast.
    The end of the story is most exciting!
    The hero arrives in the clouds riding a white horse, he slays the dragon, destroys evil, and all the people who believed that the hero would arrive, followed him to a land that is never dark.
     On your reading list, this book is a must-read.  You can pick up a copy at your neighborhood book store, or, if you prefer, let me know and I will send you a copy, free of charge and postage paid.  And, no, you do not need to make a donation to my blog, for this blog is freely received and freely written.
    The name of the book is The Revelation of Jesus Christ.  And while I do not want to sound like a name-dropper, I do know the author personally.
     So, where shall I send your book?
   

 
   
    

ABRAHAM

     Abram was called out of the land of Chaldea by God to the land of Cannan and Abram became the father of the Hebrew nation and the first Jew.  And there God made a covenant with Abram and gave unto Abram a list of the promises of God, saying in the book of Genesis:
     Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.  And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
     Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them:  and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
    If you examine the descendency Abraham, you will learn that the majority of the world's leaders, kings, queens, and U.S. presidents are of the bloodline of Abraham, up to and including the current President of the United States, Barack Obama!
   Likewise, if you study the family trees of the majority of the world leaders today and follow the DNA of their genealogies, you will enter the New Testament of the Bible, then in to the Old Testament and arrive at Abraham!
     Moreover, if you study the family trees of every person living on the earth now and follow the DNA of their genealogies, you will enter the New Testament of the Bible, then in to the Old Testament, and when you arrive at Abraham you will likely be surprised and shocked to learn how many people have Jewish blood in their veins and they do not know it!
     For God said, I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
    Therefore, when you follow the blood you will arrive at truth.
    This study of Abraham is another piece of the evidence that the Bible is truth, that it is, indeed, the Word of God, and you will know that when God speaks His Word, He will surely perform it, just as He did with Abraham.
     Thus, when God speaks His Word through the prophecies that pertain to the time in which we are living today, you can believe it because God will perform it, just as He said He will do. 
     And when Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and life, you can believe it.

FOR THE MARTYRS

     In the fourth chapter of the book of Genesis we read the story of two brothers, Cain and Abel, the sons of Adam and Eve, and of how evil consumed Cain and he murdered his brother, Abel.  When God confronted Cain for his crime, the Lord said unto Cain, the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
     Over the past 2000 years, millions of innocent men, women, and children have been murdered for their belief in the Lord Jesus Christ.  Most of them never had an obituary written about them, most of them never had a proper burial, and most of them never had a headstone to mark their graves.
     If you study the history of the martyrs, it is interesting to note that the bones of the martyrs were considered by pagans to be no more than relics.  Relics are trophies of the kill, and pagans took the relics of the martyrs as a display of their pride for killing the messengers of Christ:  that the messengers of Christ were the same as killing animals and fish and hanging their heads on the walls as displays of the hunt.  They are exactly like Cain and consumed with evil.
    In the world in which we live, history books are silent about the martyrs of Christ.  To the world, the martyrs were nameless, useless people who did not deserve to live.  And to the world, it is as if they never lived at all, and the ink for them is dry.
     The martyrs of Jesus Christ are my heroes.  To me, they are the bravest and most courageous individuals who have ever lived on the face of the earth.  Because of their selfless love and devotion to teaching the Gospel of Christ, their sacrifice enabled the Good News of the Lord to reach me.  Without Christ and without them, where would I be today?  Where would other believers of Christ be today without the Lord and without the martyrs?  These are the people who experienced pain and great sorrow for the stand they took for the name of Christ.
     Who are your heroes today?  Who are the most important and influencial people in your life?  Are they the sports stars, movie stars, philosophers?  Whom do you follow?  Whom do you believe?  Whom do you quote?  And to whom do you seek for truth?  If not Christ, then all of your thoughts will vanish and not be with you in the world to come after death because their words have no eternal value.
     Christ is eternal, His words are eternal, and if you miss Christ in this world, you will surely miss Him in the world to come because the message of Christ was purchased with His blood, and the blood of the martyrs is a witness of the message of Christ.  And just like Abel, the voices of the blood of the martyrs crieth unto me from the ground, and the Lord hears them.
    John the apostle wrote:  He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life:  and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.  (John 3:36)

ARE YOU LISTENING?

    To review, why did God destroy the earth and all of life with the flood in the time of Noah?
         And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.  And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.  The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.  (Genesis 6:  5,6,11).
     Does that sound familiar?  If you look across the landscape of the United States and in nations around the world, what do you see?  Do you see the wickedness of man?  Do you see evil continually?  Do you see the earth corrupt before God?  Do you see the earth filled with violence?
    Are people honestly different today than people were then?  No!  You are watching a re-run of the same picture, the same movie, the same news.
     In the world we live in and even now, millions of innocent, helpless children are stolen and sold in the traffick of child prostitution, even as young as three years of age.  Does anybody hear the screams and crying of these children?  Does anybody weep for them and pray for them?  And why is the news media of this world silent about these children?  Why is this information hidden from us?  Why do they not want us to know?  Because of corruption!  Because every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually!  The news media is controlled by evil people in high places of leadership and they have turned off the cameras and microphones to the plight of children.
    As you look around the world, what do you see?  You see corruption in governments, in religions, in churches, in education, in business, finance, moves, books, movies, pornography, and even pornography of innocent, helpless children to feed the evil minds of pedophilia!
     As you look around the world, what evidence do you see of God?  What evidence do you see of Christ?  Very little.  Because evil people are doing all they can to erase God and Christ from your mind.
    As we discussed two days ago, the Word of God says the god of this world hath blinded the minds of men lest they believe.  And the god of this world is Satan! 
     For over 2000 years, the voices of the prophets of God have been telling us of a global government that will come upon the earth, of a global church that will come upon the earth, and both systems are in  place and working now, we are in it, and people do not want to believe.  What must God do to get your attention?
     Judas Iscariot sold his soul to Satan for thirty pieces of silver, turned his back on Christ, and went out into the darkness.  What is your price to sell your soul to Satan and turn your back on Christ?   
     Please remember:  your soul is precious to God:  for it is He who created you.
    Jesus said, As it was in the days of Noah....  Those days are here now. 
     God speaks with a still, small voice.  Are you listening?
    

MAN OF HUMILITY

     One of the most humble people in all of human history has never received much recognition.  His life is not mentioned often, messages and lessons are seldom taught of him and his quiet life.  He is, in fact, a person who is somewhat invisible, yet his life had an important impact upon human history, and his name is Joseph, the step-father of Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of God.
     If you recall the story, Joseph was engaged to marry Mary, and upon hearing the news that Mary was with child, Joseph was not thrilled---as would any other man be in his circumstances.  At that time, too, engagement was treated as seriously as marriage; and, according to the law of his time, Joseph had every legal right to divorce Mary and thereby free himself of his commitment.  Something happened, however, that not only changed Joseph's mind, but it also changed Joseph's heart:  he heard a word from Heaven in a dream:
     Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife:  for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.  And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:  for he shall save his people from their sins.
     Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:  And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son:  and he called his name JESUS.
     the lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word:  for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
     But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel:  for they are dead which sought the young child's life.
    But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither; notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:  And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth:  that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.
     Joseph is never quoted as speaking a word, he never wrote a book, yet he answered the call of God and performed his mission for the Lord, unselfishly giving of himself without desiring any form of recognition.  And silently Joseph disappears from the Scriptures. 
     As it is written in the book of Numbers,  Hear now my words:  If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.
    All of the messages Joseph received from the Lord were given to him in dreams.
    Joseph was a prophet of God:  the evidence of which was in his actions.
    
    
    

AT THE FEET OF JESUS

     Standing at the feet of Jesus that day in Jerusalem when Christ was crucified stood Mary, the mother of Jesus, and what did she see?
     Mary saw the blood of the Lord. 
     Jesus had been stripped of his clothes was hanging on the cross naked in an attempt by evil people to humilate the Son of God.
     The body of Jesus had been skinned by the Romans as they punished the King of the Jews, and therefore blood was oozing out of the body of Christ.
     The Romans had also pressed a crown of thornes in the head of the Lord and therefore He was bleeding from His head.
     Mary saw the blood of Christ coming out of His hands and His feet from the spikes the enemies of the Lord had driven to punish the Lamb of God, producing pain that not even morphine could stop.
     Mary saw the suffering of Christ on the cross in Jerusalem.  She saw Him covered with blood.
     The Lord had not eaten since the previous night when He instituted the Lord's Supper. 
     The body of the Lord was dehydrated from lack of water.  He was thirsty, He was hungry, He was tired and weary.  He was bleeding and life is in the blood.  He was giving His life which is His blood.
     The heart of Jesus ruptured and He was bleeding internally, then He died.
     This was a time of pain and great sorrow for the Lord and it was also a time of pain and great sorrow for Mary to watch as her son die for the sins of the world.
     But after the resurrection of her son, Mary said:  "Lord".
     Do you see that?   She said "Lord" because Christ became her Lord and Saviour!
     And when the Day of Pentecost was come, where was Mary?  She was in the room praying with all the disciples and she, too, received the Holy Spirit, after which she and many disciples departed Israel and went to Britian to serve the Lord with gladness in the church of believers in Christ.
     At the feet of Jesus, we, too, can receive the Holy Spirit and thereby serve the Lord with gladness.  We go out a different way just as Mary went out a different way. 
     There were also other believers standing at the feet of Jesus that day and they, too, were in the room praying on the Day of Pentecost.
     The Day of Pentecost was the day of the birth of the church of Jesus Christ and we are now living in the Church Age.
     The new birth of Christ in us begins at the feet of Jesus, for it was Jesus who took the pain that we will have eternal life in Him; for without Him, there is no salvation.  And this salvation is a free gift from the Lord for He has redeemed your sin.  But you must accept the gift.
     For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life.  (John 3:16)
    
    

CHRISLAM

     On June 26, 2011, a new religion was born into this world:  Chrislam.
     Chrislam is the marriage of Christian churches with the religion Islam and well as with Jews and also with branches of Eastern religions.  Other Eastern religions will surely follow as time goes by.  At least seventy Christian churches have joined this unholy alliance.
     Chrislam is a work of the hands of men and women to design a system that incorporates God with Satan, Christ with Muhammad, the Bible with the Qur'an, along with demonology and mysticism.  They believe that Chrislam will produce love and harmony as a way to understand one another and thereby get along together.
     In Chrislam, it includes the Christian holidays/holy days of Christmas and Easter, the holy days of Islam, the holy days of Eastern religions, and with the holy days of Judaism.  In their worship services, each entity has readings and teachings from all of their books, thereby making all of their books equal.
     In a previous blog, we discussed how five mainstream Protestant churches and organizations have united with the Catholic Church to create a world church.  Later, Chrislam will merge with this world church.  In total, this creates the idea of:  one world, one religion, one brotherhood/sisterhood.
     The one ingredient that is missing in this world church is Christ because the world church will not include the Son of God because the world church will not be a church:  it will be a religious dictatorship.  It is a trap, a snare in which Satan will capture people who will accept the mark of the beast, which is the number 666 embedded in their right hands or in their foreheads.
     The world church will be headed by a man that the Scriptures call the False Prophet, who will give honor to the Antichrist.  The false church is Satanic:  the worship of Satan, the master deceiver.
     In the future, this world church will murder millions of people who refuse to take the mark of the beast; therefore if you believe this world church is the way to go, then the blood of the martyrs will be on YOUR hands, too. 
     The New World Order, the New World Church, the New Age Movement, and New Age Music are part of the same Satanic system to deceive people from coming to know Christ.
     When Christ returns (and He will return) the Lord will judge this false church and will destroy it.  The Lord calls this false church by the name of Babylon and you can read about the destruction of Babylon in the last book of the Bible---Revelation chapters 17 and 18.
     The Lord says, Come out from among them and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing.

READY TO GO?

     The born again experience of the believer in Christ is also the same as being born anew or born from above.  It is the Holy Spirit who initiates this new birth.
     Picture a lamp inside of you, but it has no light.  When you accept Christ as your Saviour, He lights the lamp and the light is the Holy Spirit.  Therefore we, the believers, are carriers of the Light of Christ, which enables us to go to Heaven because we have been forgiven for our sin against God.
     The new birth is not a religious experience; it is a spiritual experience, or spiritual awakening.  For in religion, people believe they must work or earn their way to Heaven, but salvation from Christ is free because of His wonderful love and grace.  Freely given and freely received.  The only requirement of us is to ask; but if we do not ask for forgiveness, none is given.  For in humility, we will ask; but in pride, we will not ask.
    Salvation is free because Christ redeemed your sin debt by His death on the cross.  This is why Christ is called the Lamb of God because He was the sin offering, the sacrifice that was pleasing to God.
     So then, Christ humbled Himself to come to earth to die for sin, and we must likewise humble ourselves to get to Heaven.  He was humble and we must be humble.
     One more point:  you do not need to be in a church building to be saved.  You can do it now simply by praying and asking the Lord to save you, for the Lord has purchased your flight to Heaven!
     Ready to go?

WHO'S THE BOSS?

     But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:  in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.  (II Corinthians 4: 3,4)
     And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:  and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.  (Genesis 1: 25)
     When God created Adam (man) he was to have dominion over the earth.  Man was supposed to rule over the earth and be in charge; but when Adam (man) disobeyed God in the garden of Eden and made an agreement with the serpent (Satan), man lost his authority to the Devil.
     Therefore, Satan is the god of this world in which we live; and by his power of deception, he blinds the minds of people from believing the light of the glorious gospel of Christ.
     This earth is not the kingdom of God; for it became the kingdom of Satan in the garden of Eden.  Adam's transgression allowed Satan's rebellion against God to become the sin that would infect every human birth thereafter, even until this day.  This is original sin, for, As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.  (Romans 10:5)
     Look at this world and what do you see?  We see evil.  We see murder, envy, strife, contention, jealousy, lies, deceitfulness, lust, theft, corruption, haters, despisers, rape, incest, pedophilia, child prostitution, anger, pornography, disobedience. 
    We are born with these characteristics at birth because the pride of Satan is the same pride of us, from which we need salvation; for man has demonstrated these characteristics for more than 6000 years, throughout all generations, even now.  The world we live in will not get better:  it will get worse until the day of the Lord.
     The kingdom of God is not of this world, so when Jesus left Heaven and came to earth, the Lord was not welcome here.  Jesus stepped in enemy territory.  He stepped in man's world, which became a war zone.  Jesus is the Light and the Light shines in darkness and exposes the sins of man, and people did not want the Light shining on them and they hated Him.  Satan's army of haters believed if they could kill Christ, that would extinguish the Light.  But they were wrong.  They did not believe the Light would rise again.
    So then, whom do you believe?  Whom do you follow?  Who's the boss?
    
    

A DYING MAN'S WORDS

     Jesus said, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.  (John 3:3)
     It is said that a dying man's words are words of truth:  for few people, we believe, will lie on their way out.
     Therefore if these words Jesus spoke before He died are to be believed, then you will believe them if you believe that a dying man's words are truth. 
     If you disagree with these words, then your disagreement is with God:  for He spoke them and He wrote them in order for you to know the truth.
    If these words are to be believed, then the truth must be revealed to you by the Holy Spirit; for in your carnal mind, you will not believe them.
    On the day when Jesus was crucified, two thieves were crucified next to Him.  One of the thieves said, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.  And Jesus said unto him:  Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. (Luke 23: 42,43)
     Here, we have the words of two dying men:  the thief was seeking forgiveness for his sin and Christ granted him forgiveness and the thief was born again!
    How did the dying man know he needed to speak those words to Jesus?  Because the Holy Spirit revealed to him that Jesus is the Christ!
    Due to his circumstances, the forgiven man did not have the opportunity to go to church, to read a Bible, or even to be baptized.  But that day he received Heaven because he believed that Jesus is the Son of God!  Only Jesus could do that.
    Therefore if you will believe in Christ, this day your sins will be forgiven and your slate will be erased as if you never sinned!   And if you should die this day you will be in Heaven as if you were the dying man on the cross next to Jesus.
    But what about the other man who was cruicified next to Jesus?  He never acknowledged that Jesus is the Christ.  He never asked the Lord for forgiveness. 
    All of us are like thieves hanging on a cross next to Jesus.  Which thief are you?  What are going to say to Jesus, who is hanging there and dying for your sin?  Are you going to say, "Lord, remember me"? or are you going the other way?
     Think not that you will have tomorrow, for all of us are dying.  And like the two men dying next to Jesus, they did not have another tomorrow. 
     Today's message is about urgency.  It is urgent for you to know Christ.  Do it quickly!  Or the Devil will steal your soul.
    

CHRIST IS

     I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.  (Revelation 1:8).
     Christ is the Creator of the universe, the Creator of the earth, the Creator of everything seen and not seen with human eyes.
     Christ was at the beginning of human history and He will be at the end of human history.
     Christ is the Book and Christ is the Bookends.
     Human history will come to an end, but this is not The End.  For thereafter we, who believe in Him, will no longer be restricted as we join Him in a journey that will have no end:  eternity.
     In the last book of the Bible, He tells us of the New Heaven He has prepared for us as well as the exact location, where there will be no need of the sun, for Christ will be the Light. 
    There will be no darkness there, not never.  There will be no pain, no hurt, no sorrow, no need for canes or wheelchairs, no headaches or backaches, and no more tears.
    We will have new bodies just as Christ has a new body, and we will never age.
    Will we eat in Heaven?  Yes!  But we will never be tired, or weak, or weary.
    Will we sleep or take naps in Heaven?  Will we need to?
    In Heaven, we will see the prophets, the disciples and apostles, and all the martyrs who gave their lives for the Gospel of Christ.  They will know us, and we will know them.
     We will meet people we knew on earth, others we never met, but it will be as if we have always known them.
    What will we do in Heaven?  What about a personal tour of the universe, traveling millions and trillions of miles, seeing the majestic splendor of God's creation.
    And for all that Christ has prepared for us, it is absolutely free of charge if we simply say yes to Jesus.  Freely given and freely received.
     Only God.

TWEEKERS

     False prophets have an excellent understanding of human psychology.   They understand what people want to hear, want to believe, and they also know how easily human minds can be deceived by just a little bit of truth that sounds like truth, but is not truth. 
    False prophets study the Word of God.  They have an understanding of Scripture, they can quote Scripture, tell Bible stories, and they sound like men and women who have breakfast with God.
    False prophets have an understanding of wearing the wardrobe.  They wear the suits with cuff links, nice dresses with proper shoes, and flowing robes with white collars, black collars, four-in-hand ties, bow ties, or no ties for that more casual look.
     False prophets also know that many, many people do not read the Word of God, and by knowing this, they know that they can tweek the Word of God just a little bit and people will not know the difference.
     Furthermore, false prophets are excellent in salesmanship.  By their training and education, they know how to sell the program.  And after the program, they want you to support their ministries with a generous, tax-deductible love gift from your pocket to their pocket, but also they want you to buy their records, tapes, videos, DVDs, books and magazines; and, by so doing, this creates your attachment to them.
    False prophets are deceivers and they have been highly training in the arena of deception because of their allegience to the master deceiver of the universe, who is Satan.  False prophets are representatives of Satan and their "mission field" is to deceive people and thereby win "converts" for their lord Satan.
    For the past 2000 years, false prophets have been sneaking into Christian churches, Christian religions and tweeking the Word of God in order to detour the minds of people to accept another way to Heaven, which is not through Jesus Christ:  just do the best you can, be a good person, do good deeds in your community, be nice to people, go to church and sit on the pew, and feast at the table of the false prophets, who are leading you away from the Lord.
    Beyond this, false prophets are not only masters of psychology, masters of apparel, and masters of tweeking the Word of God, they are also masters of financial management.  They are in churches to not only persuade people from not seeing Christ, but to also get the money.  The money is their reward, for they have been bought with a price. 
    By following false prophets, and not Christ, your eyes are focused on them by what you see.  Your ears are tuned to their words by what you hear.  Thus you have been deceived by your eyes and ears in the same way that Adam and Eve were deceived by Satan in the garden of Eden.  Satan's system of deception has not changed:  only the stage has been changed and redesigned.  What happened in the garden of Eden is same program that is visible today in false churches by the leadership of false prophets:  and people are biting fruit from the wrong tree.
     Over the past 2000 years, false prophets have built a Satanic Empire within Christian churches and Christian religions:  in the United States and around the world.  The devil's workers have sneaked in churches and sit on financial committees, deacon boards, teach Sunday School classes, sing in choirs, assist with the Lord's Supper, serve the sacriments, preach from pulpits and serve mass as well.  They are there to distract and to distort the Word of God and to present a program of false hope and false believe.  They are hypocrites and sinners and they need Christ for their salvation.
     If you do not see and understand this truth, then you have been tweeked.  You are living under deception and you do not even know it.  If you see and believe this truth, however, then come out of religion and flee to Christ.  But if you choose to stay there, then you are part of that spirit of antichrist:  you are against Christ and not for Christ. 
     For this cause, the Holy Spirit knocks at your heart's door.  He is inviting you to meet Christ and be saved from your sin.  What are you going to do?

JESUS WEPT

     Lazurus was a friend of Jesus and when Lazurus died, Jesus wept.
     When Jesus was walking to Calvary to die for the sin of the world, the Lord said:
         Ye daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for your children.
     Have you ever wept for Jesus?
     Have you ever wept for the disciples and apostles of Christ who gave their lives for the Gospel of Jesus?
     Have you ever wept that your own children will be saved from their sin by the Lord and know that they will go to Heaven when they die?
     When people are born again in Christ, we weep.  We shed tears of joy and thanksgiving unto Him for saving us from our sin.  As time goes by, we weep for others to know Christ.
     On the other hand, are you teaching your children religion?  Are you teaching them to be as religious as you are?  Are you teaching them to avoid the Light?
     Therefore if you have no tears for yourself, nor for your children, where are you?  And where are your children?
     When Jesus died on the cross, His heart ruptured because of the love He has for you.
  

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

     Jesus is the Light of the world and the Light shines in darkness.  Jesus is the Sun of Malachi 4:2. Therefore, when Jesus died on the cross there was darkness over the face of the earth because the Sun went out. 
    Satan is the Prince of darkness and sinners, who abide in darkness, crucified the Lord because they refused the Light. With Christ dead, sinners could continue their religious practices and not be bothered by the Light.
    Something went wrong with their evil plan, however.  The Light came out of the tomb!  And other people, who believed in Christ, received the gift of Holy Spirit and the Light of the Lord abided in them and continued to expose the sin of sinful people.  Now religious people had to kill Christians in order to keep the Light from shining on them, and the trail of blood of Christ has continued for 2000 years through the deaths of the martyrs.
    False prophets are agents of darkness, representatives of Satan. They work to teach people to avoid the Light.  They teach people that there is more than one way to get to heaven.   False prophets look good and sound good to sinners because sinners are comfortable in darkness because they are living in deception, which is from Satan.
    Salvation in Christ is a gift of God by grace.  Religion is a system of works.  This is why religious Christians work for their salvation in order to be approved by the false prophets and thereby earn their way to heaven.  As we discussed yesterday, however, this heaven that religious Christians believe is out of the imagination of the false prophets, who represent the devil, which is why religious institutions are dens of darkness because the Light of Christ is not welcome; neither will Christ condescend His holiness to meet with sinners in their evil religions.
    From outside religious buildings, the Light says:  Come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.  (II Corinthians 6:17:18).
    In previous blogs, you have heard me urge people to flee from religion and accept the Light.  For if people remain in their dens of darkness, they will remain in their sin, and they will be in hell with Satan. For religion is Satan's Institution of Darkness, which is why religious Christians do not like to talk about the Lord, the Son of God, because Christ is not their Lord.  They have accepted a substitute way to get to heaven, which does not exist. 
    But by accepting the Light and being born again in Christ, the love of God is spread abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. (Romans 5:5).
     Jesus is the Light of the world!  Jesus is the Christ!  Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords!

IT IS WELL

     William Spafford (1828-1888) was a Christian and a wealthy Chicago lawyer when he and his wife experienced the death of their young son; and on October 8, 1871, the Great Chicago Fire destroyed almost every real estate investment he had.
     In 1873, Spafford's wife and four daughters went on a vacation to Europe where he would meet them at a later date.  Several days later, however, the ship with his family aboard had a collision at sea and their four daughters perished, and his wife survived. 
     Spafford boarded a ship that would take him to his wife, and with a heavy heart from losing five children, he penned these words on a piece of paper:

     When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
        when sorrows like sea billows roll;
     Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
        It is well, it is well, with my soul.
    
     The words Spafford wrote that day became the lyrics for one of the most beloved hymns in Christian churches for over one hundred years, thereby giving people hope in times of pain and great sorrow:

     It Is Well With My Soul

ONCE UPON A TIME

     As I shared with you in a previous blog, man created religions across the earth, by different names, but the concept is the same:  the only difference in religions is the names.
     Man created religion out of his imagination.  And within his imagined religion, he also wrote his own dogmas and doctrines, laws, rules, and regulations---out of his imagination.
    Man also created an escape clause within his religion that enables him not to go to a place called hell, or hades, or any place of pain.  This escape clause is also out of his imagination.
     Furthermore, the crowing jewel of man's religion includes a place called heaven, or paradise, or utopia, where man will reward himself for all that he has believed about himself.  This heaven in man's religion is out of his imagination. 
     Thus you can see that man's religion is imagined, his belief systems are imagined, and his heaven is imagined. 
     Therefore, if you are in a religion, you are believing in the imaginations of others and their imaginations have become your imaginations; and their imagined heaven has become your imagined heaven.  The heaven that you are now believing in your mind is not God's Heaven:  even though you may think it is.  You are thus living and believing in a lie and the book your are writing about yourself is called Once Upon A Time.  It is a fairytale.  It is not real, but only imagined.  You have been tricked by Satan's deception as told by others who have also been deceived.  And this book your are writing about yourself is dangerous.
    If your church is teaching you of a way to Heaven other than Christ,  you are in a false church and you are following people who are leading you the wrong way:   but you believe in your mind that you are going the right way when, in fact, you are going the wrong way.  And the heaven that you are believing is an imagined heaven:  it is not real, and it is not there.  Your heaven is not God's Heaven because you are not following Christ.  You are following the imaginations of your leaders.
     Do you know how Jesus died on the cross for you are me?  His heart ruptured.
   

BEYOND THE CROSS

     And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.  And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.  (Luke 23:45,46).
     It is difficult for people to understand why Jesus died on a cross.  The truth of the matter is this: 
     For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosover believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16). 
     And Christ, in obedience to His Father, became the sin offering as the Lamb of God.  He died for our sins that we can have eternal life in Him, if we place our faith Him, and accept Him as our personal Saviour, who saved us from our sin, and who died for us that will not die for our sins.  In acceptance of Christ we experience the new birth, which is to be born again in Him, and therefore we are accepted by God because we accepted His Son. 
     The born again experience of the believer means that our soul (in the spiritual sense) is deposited in the temple of God in Heaven because we have accepted the gift of the Redeemer because He redeemed us; and when we die, we automatically go to the temple of God in Heaven, and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  As it is written, To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. 
    On the day that Christ was cruicified, the veil in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem was rent (or ripped) from top to bottom by God the Father because Christ the Son, in His office of High Priest, is the Door to Heaven.  And for us to accept Him and get beyond the cross then we must go through the cross by believing that His death on the cross was my substitution for my sin:  that He died in my place!
     The story of Christ is the love story for the ages.  He loved us before the cross and He loves beyond the cross. 
     This is why I love the Lord because He first loved me and gave His life for me as if I was the only person on earth.  And He will do the same for you if you will simply believe in Him.

THE ELEVENTH HOUR

     My blogs are about urgency.  My blogs are about imminent danger, the enemy at the gates, the 11th hour.  The 11th hour denotes danger, do not go there, be prepared, or go another way.
     My agreement, therefore, is with the Word of God, which is to say we are living in the last days.  If you have a Bible, I urge you to read it.  If you do not have one, I urge you to get one and read it.  For the prophecies concerning the last days are here now, and the prophecies of God have a 100% success rate.
     Reading the Bible today is like reading a daily newspaper of events that were foretold centuries ago.  For in the 24th chapter of the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus goes to great length to explain what will happen in the last days.  Those events are happening now.
    Even as Jesus taught us to pray in a passage of Scripture we call the Lord's prayer, He said, deliver us from evil.  Who, then, can deliver us from evil?  It is Christ!  It was He who died for the sins of the world, and if your agreement is with Him, then you will agree with the Word of God.   As it is written in the last book of the Bible, one of the names for Christ is:  The Word of God.  So as you read the Word of God, you are reading Him.  If your faith is therefore in Him, then your faith will also be in the Word of God.  If, however, your faith is not in Him for the salvation of your soul, then your faith will not be in the Word of God and you will not believe His words even though His words are true.
     So then, if your agreement is with Christ, what do you see?  You will see that Christ was crucified for your sin.  And you will also see and believe that just as Christ arose from death, we also shall arise from death and be with Him in heaven and with God the Father, the Creator of the universe.
     As we look at these last days, we can know and believe that events that are happening now are events of the last days as foretold by Christ alone. 
     As for Christ's return to earth, what did He say?  He said false prophets shall arise and deceive many.  He said there will be wars and rumors of wars.  He said there will be signs in the stars.  He said there will be earthquakes in various places.  He said a world church will arise and that it will be evil.  And He said the Antichrist will appear and that he will kill millions of people who refuse to worship him.
     Jesus gives us two more signs to look for before He returns.  He said as it was in the days of Noah, before God destroyed the earth with water, and He also said as it was in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.  Those conditions are here now.
     Before the flood, God left the door of ark open for seven days and no one else got on the ark because they did not believe God.
     The door of the ark of Christ is open now.  Christ is your only hope for a better tomorrow. 
     Christ died for us because He loves us and He wants us to be part of the new kingdom He has planned for us.  But we must get on board, we must step into the Ark, and our ticket has been paid in full and free of charge.  That's the best deal any person can receive.  As for the benefits, they are out of this world!
     Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him:   and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him.  Even so, Amen.  (Revelation 1:7).
     Do you believe?
      

NUMBER ELEVEN

     The Bible number 11 means Judgment and Disorder and is used 24 times in the Scriptures. 
     God's reason for the Flood of Noah is given in Genesis chapter 6, verse 11, which says, The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
     The Flood of Noah began in the 7th chapter of Genesis, in verse 11.
     In the 11th chapter of the book of Genesis, God stopped the construction of the Tower of Babel.

COULD IT BE?

    Have you ever wondered why Jesus was a threat to the religious people of Jerusalem 2,000 years ago?
    To be realistic, anybody could walk around town and say I'm the Son of God or I am the Messiah, couldn't they?  Why didn't they simply consider him to be a wild and crazy man, have him thrown in a dungeon and go on about their lives? 
     Jesus was the son of a poor family in Nazareth.  Joseph and Mary were not wealthy.  Joseph was a carpenter, he worked with his hands, and held no position of authority in Nazareth.  Jesus, like Joseph, was a a carpenter.  When Jesus left Nazareth, he no home, no job, no income, yet he was quite bothersome to the Jewish religious institution.
     When wise men from the east came to Jerusalem and said, Where is he that is born King of the Jews?, why did King Herod lose his mind and order a death decree for a two-year-old baby?  Was Jesus a threat to King Herod?
     After they crucified Jesus (and never believed that the Lord arose from death), why did the Jews stone Stephen to death for preaching about a man they had killed?
     In the book of Acts, why did the Jews take Paul to court seeking the death penalty for talking about Jesus, whom they had killed?
     Why did they kill the disciples and apostles of the Lord for talking about the man they had killed in Jerusalem?
     Why did Constantine the Great, emperor of the mighty Roman Empire, go to the expense to erect church buildings for Christians?  Have you ever heard of a state government doing that for Christians?  The Christians of Rome were not a threat to all-powerful Rome.  They were not wealthy people, they had no political agenda.  And why did the pagan priests change their robes and become priests in Christian churches?  They did not believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
     And after John Wycliffe translated the Bible from Latin to English, why did Rome issue a death warrant and execute Rev. Wycliffe?  If the Romans did not believe in the Bible anyway, would the book be of any good to those that would read it?
     Does something seem strange about this story?
     Could it be that the religious crowd in Jerusalem did believe in their minds that Christ is the Son of God, but because they did not want to repent of their sin they crucified the Lord, thinking that that would end the whole affair of Jesus?
     Could it be that King Herod did believe in his mind that Jesus is the King of the Jews and therefore he tried to kill him in order not to repent of his sin?
     Could it be that the Jews who stoned Stephen and brought Paul to trial did believe in their minds that Jesus is the Son of God, and they did not want preaching of Jesus to continue because of the conviction that they were sinners?
     When people are confronted with sin, one attribute we can exhibit is anger.  We can experience anger because we do not like the accusation of being considered a sinner.  We think of ourselves as better than that, or that we are good people, that we go to church, that we have been baptized, and not needful of salvation, certainly not the born again way.  We do not want to submit to God in prayer and confess that we are sinners because we have our religion and our own way of getting to heaven.   Yet all of the people mentioned in this story were angry at Jesus as well as angry at the people for speaking about Him.  With anger, people have been killing Christ's messengers over the past 2000 years.  And when Antichrist arises on the earth, he will be angry.
     Could it be that all of those people did know and believe in their minds that Christ is the Messiah, but with their hearts they refused Him?  Why else were they so angry?  He had done them no harm.
     This is my view, but what do you think about this story?  Do you believe that Christ is the Messiah?
    
     

R.F.I.D.

        And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their forehead:  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.  (Revelation 13:16,17).
     When the New World Order arises, (and it will happen) people will be required to take the mark, which will be a microchip implant in the right hand or in the forward.  This microchip will contain the personal information of individuals, such as names, addresses, Social Security numbers, credit and debit card numbers, medical information, insurance information, etc.  People will then be able to scan their hand across scanners, like at supermarkets or at gas pumps, and computers will deduct purchases from the chip.  They will do this wherever they make purchases.  Without the chip implant, people will not be allowed to buy anything, not even groceries.
     RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification.  The microchip contains personal information, but the chip also includes an antenna.  Not only will the chip enable people to buy, but will also be used to track the locations of people.  The new government will know where people are at all times.   There will be no privacy.  When you leave home, the government will know as you pass checkpoints and scan.
    Paper money also contains microchips and therefore government will know if people exchange money from person to person, which could be a violation of law.  The chip in money also enables the government to scan houses and thereby know how much money people have in their homes.
     Televisions also have hidden cameras and microphones so that the government can see and hear activites in homes, even with televisions off.
     Available now are RFID bracelets and wristbands, which include microchips.  They are colorful and stylist and actually look cool.  You will think you are cool by wearing one because they are like a new trend, or a new fashion, and everybody wants to have the latest and be cool, right?
     This is a trap.  This is a snare.  This is an enticement to get people conditioned for microchip implants.  As people accept the bracelets and wristbands, then they will be easy to convert to implants.
     Commercials these masterminds are showing now include attractive young people, all having fun and being cool, and they are also using elderly people, demonstrating how convenient these braclets and wristbands are at hospitals and doctors' offices.  No need for purses and wallets because the microchips have it all.
     When change happens slowly and over time, people are changed without realizing they have been had!
     Because the New World Order has been working slowly and over time, people will suddenly be captives of the new governement without knowing when the change happened. 
     A mark or seal is an old system.  Kings, queens, popes, presidents, and others of nobilty have used their personal seal or mark on important papers, documents, or letters for centuries.  If that person's mark or seal is not on the paper, document, or letter, is not considered valid; but if the mark or seal of the person is on the correspondence or law, it is authenic. 
    The "mark" of the New World Order will be the seal of the Antichrist.  The seal is therefore an identification mark, and if you accept the mark you are identifying yourself as one of his.  It means that you will worship and obey him.
     The dangerous time we are living in now is the fact that millions of people are following the leadership of false ministers, false preachers, and false prophets, representing false churches and false religious systems.  They are leading people to accept the New World Order, to accept Antichrist, and to accept the mark in their hands and foreheads.  They are not leading people to Christ, but they are leading people in the wrong direction.
    I urge to pray and seek Christ for the first time in your life!
    I urge you to flee from religion!
    I urge you not to accept RFID bracelets and wristbands for yourself, for your children, nor for your grandchildren!
     I urge you to follow Christ!---not only for yourself, but also for your children and grandchildren, for they will follow you.

STATEMENT OF FAITH

     I believe there are many Bible-believing churches in the United States and in nations around the world.
     I believe there are many born again believers in Christ in the United States and in nations around the world.
     I believe in the born again experience of believers in Christ as the only way for salvation as well as the only way to go to heaven after death.
     I believe I was a sinner and the Lord saved me from sin on the morning of April 27, 1995, after which I followed the commandment of the Lord and was baptized.
    I believe the Lord not only saved me from sin, but I believe He also delivered me from the imprisonment of a religious mind.
     I believe in the Bible as the Word of God, written by men and women under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, word for word and every jot and tittle.
     I believe that the Bible is complete and without error from cover to cover.
     I believe that Christ was born of a virgin, that He died on the cross for the sin of the world, that He arose from death after three days, that He appeared to many people after His resurrection, and that He ascended to the Father in heaven.
    I believe that ministers of Christ are called and anointed by God to be teachers and preachers of the Word of God, and that these positions of leadership should not be a choice such as a career opportunity.
     I believe a church should be a house of prayer in accordance to Isaiah 56:7.
     I believe that Christ will return to earth again and every eye shall see Him visibly from above.
     I believe:  In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth.  (Genesis 1:1).
     I believe:  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  (John 1:1).
     I believe:  Neither is there salvation in any other:  for there is none other name under heaven given among me, whereby we must be saved.  (Acts 4:12).
   

A TALE OF TWIN CITIES

     Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.  But his wife (Lot's wife) looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.  And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD:  And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.  (Genesis 19:24-28).
     From geological studies of the land of ancient Sodom and Gomorrah, scientists have determind that the "fire and brimstone" was a nuclear weapon.  When Lot's wife became a "pillar of salt", the Hebrew word for "salt" is vapourized.  And when Abraham saw the "smoke of a furnace" he was looking at a mushroom cloud from a nuclear blast.
     Think not?  We need to remember that God is smarter than we are.
     If you will read the opening text of Genesis 19, the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah was perverted sex, for which God rendered His judgment.  The people there crossed God's "line in the sand".
    There was a time when the United States of America was the Christian Capital of the world.  In that time, the United States represented the Light of Christ throughout the world.
     Today, however, the United States is the sex capital of the world because of our production and distribution of perverted sex on television, in movies, music, books, magazines, cell phones, iPhones, internet, and pornography around the world.  Even young children are exposed to perverted sexual and graphic information at early ages and their minds have been poisoned.  So many people today do not blush anymore; neither are they embarassed by what they see or talk about.
     The lights of churches went out, people stopped praying and reading the Word of God, and churches became religious centers in which to socialize, have coffee and donuts, and now people of congregations are following false prophets, false preachers, and false priests into the New World Order and to Antichrist, who is Satan.  And we who believe and follow the Lord are called "those born again Christians" and "Bible thumpers" as if we are "religious nuts".
     As difficult as this is to write, the United States has crossed God's "line in the sand".  For in the last book of the Bible, you can read about God's judgment on the United States in the 17th chapter of The Revelation of Jesus Christ and how the United States will cease to be a nation in a time span of one hour.
     We know that God is love, and we also know that God has an abundance of mercy and grace; but God also has law.  And when people or nations cross God's "line in the sand" and without repentance, His judgment will follow.
     If you have never acknowledged Christ as your Saviour, I urge you not to let this decision linger.  All you need to do is pray, even from where you are sitting now.

THE SECOND SUN!

     NASA and other people are reporting the sighting of a twin sun in the universe.
     This sun is not Planet X, nor is it the star Nibiru.  Rather, this sun is the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, written in the book of Malachi 4:2.
     But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
     If you recall, after the resurrection of Jesus, the Lord left His clothes in the tomb because He is clothed with light.  And we, who believe in Him, will also be clothed in light when we leave this world.
     In the garden of Eden, Adam and Eve were clothed with light; but when they sinned against God, their lights went out and they had to wear clothes made of the earth.
     The light of this second sun is none other the light of the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ as He prepares to reveal Himself to all nations.  A star announced the birth of Christ in Bethlehem and this star in the universe now will be Christ's revelation of Himself.
     Some exciting things are about to happen for we who believe in Him, but also some very evil things are about to happen upon the earth:  and they will happen quickly. 
    Satan and his demons know they do not have much time left, so the wicked one, his demons, and his followers upon the earth will move speedily to execute their evil attacks against people.  In the end, however, Christ will prevail.  The Lord will deliver the end of Satan's reign in this world and evil will be no more.
    In the city that God has planned for believers, He tells us about it in the last book of the Bible:
     And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it:  for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.  And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light ot it....  (Revelation 21:23-24).
     Is your faith in Christ?  I'm praying for you, even now.
   

THE RED ZONE

         Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men:  but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.  And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him:  but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.  (Matthew 12: 31,32).
     
     The Holy Spirit never speaks of Himself.  He is the Comforter of believers in Christ, He is the revealer of truth, and He constantly and continuously directs the attention of people to Jesus Christ.
     Because God is patient and longsuffering, the Holy Spirit points people to Christ for as long as God decides.  This time can be for years and it can also be for decades.  The amount of time, however, is decided by God. 
    God knows the hearts of people as He also knows when a person's heart is hardened that he or she will never acknowledge Christ, which is blasphemy of the Holy Ghost. At this time, God directs the Holy Spirit to stop working with the individual and the person dies---suddenly and unexpectedly.
    As it is written, And it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:  (Hebrews 9:27).   And also, It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.  (Hebrews 10:31).
     Dear people, these blogs I write are about urgency because human history is coming to an end.  Your own history is also coming to an end.  Therefore, I pray that you will prayerfully consider the words of this blog you have read today and make your decision for Christ.  If not, then your are living in the red zone which could also be a time of imminent danger.  I urge you not to hesitate but make your choice for Christ quickly.

A SPIDER'S WEB

     On April 7, 2006, thirty-four Protestant churches, Christian organizations, and Christian religions came together and formed Christian Churches Together, represented by five families within Christianity:  Evangelical/Protestant, Historic Protestant, Orthodox, Historic Racial/Ethnic, and Roman Catholic.
     This is a trap, dear people.  It is a snare to entice people to a system of false security.  It is a spider's web.
     Christian Churches Together has deceived leadership.  All of its pastors, ministers, preachers, and priests are in violation of Biblical teachings.  They have skipped John 3:3, John 3:16, and they are ignorning the last book of the Bible entirely:  The Revelation of Jesus Christ.  This is a case of the blind leading the blind.
     Earlier, I wrote a blog entitled, SEDUCTION OF THE CHURCH:  how the believers of Christ were hoodwinked in Rome, how Christianity became the State Religion of the Roman Empire, which was followed by the State Church of Rome.  This is happening again, even now.  Rome will rise again and become an international power.
     This world system we have today, potitically as well as religiously, is leading people of the United States, Western Europe, and Latin America toward the event that deceivers have been planning for a long, long time:  the arrival of the false Messiah, who is the Antichrist, who is Lucifer, who is Satan, and who, according to the Bible, is the man of sin.
     In the future, you will see religion taking the lead in state affairs at the political level.  You will see religion moving to center stage and the focus of news media will shift to the leadership of religion.  As stated before, the Antichrist must be and will be a religious figure.  Always remember that change happens in slow and subtle ways, which is the way deceivers operate because they do not want you to know the truth.
    The primary symbol of the European Union is a woman riding a beast.  Outside the headquarters building of the European Union in Brussels is a statue of woman riding a beast.  In Bible prophecy, this woman riding a beast was written about 2,000 years ago.  You can read about it in the last book of the Bible.  And in the European Parliament there a seat with the number 666.  This seat is vacant for now.
     You also need to be aware that Sunday Law is coming.  This law will come from government, which will be forced on people as well as enforced by civil law.
     On December 1, 2009, Germany's Constitutional Court ruled that Sunday should be a day "of rest from work and of spiritual improvement" (Deutche Welle) and Germans began to honor this law.
     On January 1, 2009, Croatia exercised Sunday Law, requiring business and shops to close on Sunday.
     According to Trumpet.com, "The Vatican wants a clause in the law that would force every citizen in the European Union to rest on Sunday".
     According to The Remnant Online, "Hebrew Israel is examining a proposal to make Sunday a day of rest".  Isn't this strange?  Israel has honored the Sabbath Day on Saturday since the time of Moses and the writing of the Ten Commandments.
     ENDRITIMES calls this "Sunday Law by Stealth".
     What we are seeing in the world today, in both religion and politics, is the unseen spiritual war against Jesus Christ and His people, who have been born again in Him.  The evidence is front of our eyes.
     As always, you are encouraged to do your own research.   First, read the Bible and know the truth.  Secondly, you can Google or Yahoo the New World Order, Sunday Law, the merging of religions into one entity, and the Antichirst, the false Messiah.  More importantly, you can research the coming of Jesus Christ.  All these things will come to pass. 
     Whatever you do, do not miss heaven by missing Christ.

FROM HERE TO ADAM

     If you are interested in studying and doing your own research, let me offer some sources of information that will help you.
     You can read about The Age of the Universe at http://www.aish.com/.
     The Institute for Creation Research is found at http://www.icr.org/.
     You can also go to http://www.bibleevidences.com/ for more scientific studies.
     If you are tracing your family roots, or family surname, this web site has the genealogy of every name in the Bible, http://www.complete-bible-genealogy.com/.
     Why is this Bible genealogy important?
     The name of every person that has ever lived, and for every person that is living now, family surnames will be traced to the Bible genealogies of the Old Testament and back to Adam.  Try it.  And you will find that Adam is the origin of human genetics upon the earth. 
     Therefore, if you will do simple math, you will see that human life on the earth is just over 6,000 years---not 50,000 or 500 million years.
     Why is Genesis the name of the first book of the Bible?  Because the Hebrew meaning of Genesis is "origin" or "birth". 
      And the last name of the Bible is "Amen" which is one of the many names of Christ!

THEY WENT THAT WAY

     And after the day of Pentecost, the disciples and apostles of Christ made plans to begin their journeys to tell people about those things which they had seen and heard:  the life, death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. 
    Their mission would not be easy.  They would travel hundreds and thousands of miles from Jerusalem.  The only clothes they had were the clothes they were wearing.  They had one pair of shoes.  They had little to no money in their pockets.
     The followers of Christ had no Bibles, no training manuals, no pamphlets.   Not one of them had been to a Bible college, nor to a seminary.  All they had, to be honest, was faith:  the faith to believe that if they would tell others about Christ, people would believe in Him.
     As the disciples and apostles departed on their journeys, most of them would never see Jerusalem or their homes again.  They would never meet together and pray as one body.  And they would never see the land of Israel again.
     In all of their journeys and from all of their teaching and preaching, thousands and thousands of people were converted to Christ and churches were established in nations and continents wherever they went:  throughout the Mediterranean to Rome and even in Rome churches were founded; in the Middle East; in Africa; in India; in Britain; to Western Europe; and to the north country of the Ukraine, Armenia, Georgia, and Russia.
     These men and women of Jerusalem were the bravest and boldest people of people on the face of the earth, and their mission was to do something the world had never seen before:  to tell others about the love of God.  They were the pioneers of a belief system that would become known by the name of Christianity.  And even today, two thousand years later, we hear of Christ by the same method:  word of mouth.
     After leaving Jerusalem, most of these men and women were murdered for their convictions.  Other converts were also murdered for speaking about Christ.  We should be thankful for their accomplishments and for their sacrifices.
     It is said that Emperor Nero of the Roman Empire collected the heads of the martyrs of Christ, dipped them in oil, mounted them on poles, and lit them with torches to provide lights for his driveway.

REDHEADS

      Jesus said to the disciples:  Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:  but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. (Matthew 10:5,6).  Later, the Lord would call Saul of Tarsus, change his name to Paul, and he would become the Apostle to the Gentiles, which are non-Jewish people. 
    The "lost sheep of the house of Israel" were the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, which had been scattered.  And after the day of Pentecost, the disciples and apostles knew their marching orders and they went to preach the gospel of Christ to the Jews that were scattered, and Paul went to the Gentiles.
     The apostle Andrew made three missionary journeys, one of which took him 5,000 miles from Israel to an area of the world known today as the Ukraine, Armenia, Georgia, Russia, and north of the Black Sea to preach to a group of people known as the Scythians.
     The Scythians were experts in horsemanship and could shoot the bow while riding.  Many had full body tattoos, they were well dressed, and even their horses were outfitted in beautiful and ornate costumes.  The women participated in war as much as men and women had to kill three enemies before she could marry.  The people were also skilled in agriculture, tending flocks and herds of livestock.  They did not, however, eat pigs.
     The apostle Andrew went to the Scythians to preach the gospel of Christ as the Lord had commanded:  to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.  The Scythians were Israelites of the tribe of Dan, and they fled from Israel during the Assyrian invasion in about 720 B.C., at which time they fled to the north and established a kingdom exactly where Andrew found them.
     In the land of their empire, the Scythians renamed rivers from the tribe of Dan:  the Danube, the Dniester, the Dnieper, and the Don, which are known by these names even to this day.
     The Scythians were Ashkenazim Jews and they had three physical characteristics:  light skin, bright red hair, and deep blue eyes.  Some historians refer to them as "white Jews".
     Later, the Scythians invaded Ireland and Scotland and two names emerged:  Scots and Anglo Saxons.  Bright red hair and light skin became dominate in the monarchies of the United Kingdom, then to other parts of Europe, including Germany, France, Poland, and then to the United States.
     Famous redheads include:  Judas Iscariot, the betrayer of Christ; six U.S. presidents; General George Custer; Napoleon Bonaparte; Cleopatra, female Egyptian ruler; Vincent Van Gogh, artist; Sir Winston Churchill; Mary, Queen of Scots; Queen Elizabeth I; Vladimir Lenin; Joseph Stalin; King Henry VIII; Queen Victoria; Margaret Thatcher.
     Today, red hair remains the dominate hair color of Ireland and Scotland.
     Even the present Royal Family of Great Britain has red hair.  Prince William and Prince Harry have red hair, but they dye their hair to conceal the natural color of red.
     Redheaded people are also known to have two dominate personality characteristics:  quick, fiery tempers and sharp, biting words.
     The country name of "Russia" means "land of reds", in honor of a redheaded Viking from Denmark by the name of Rurik, called "the Rus" because of his red hair.
     Red-headed clowns also have their origin in Russia.
     Looking to the future, the Antichrist will be a Jew.  He must be a Jew in order to be the messiah of Israel.  He is, however, the Great Imposter of Jesus Christ.  He will be a "son of David,"  who is the former King David of Israel, and King David had red hair.  So look for the Antichrist to be a man with red hair and light skin, and his genealogy will be from King David.
     As always, you are encouraged to read the Bible and know the truth about this evil man, the Antichrist, who will become a ruthless global dictator.  More than this, however, read the Bible and know Jesus Christ, the Son of God.  Therefore read the Word of God and receive a promise from God, according to Revelation 1:3.  Do it quickly.

ONE DOOR, ONE WAY

     The most important decision you will make in all of your life is what to do about Jesus, whom is called Christ.
     One of the saddest verses in all of Scripture speaks of the time when Christ returns to earth, found in Revelation 17:8---and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world.
     The best example I have heard about knowing Christ is to consider the refrigerator door.  When you open the door to your refrigerator, the light comes on.  When you open the door of your heart to Christ, the Light comes on.  If, however, you keep the door of your heart closed to Christ, the Light never comes on and you will abide in darkness.  And if you keep the door of your heart closed to Christ, then you will die in darkness.
     Jesus said,  I am the door:  by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved.... (John 10:9).
     Jesus also said, I am the way, the truth, and the life:  no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.  (John 14:6).
     Not only is knowing Christ a ground-floor opportunity, He is also the opportunity of a lifetime.  This is the most important decision you will ever make.  Is there any reason why you will not accept Him now?

TO GOD BE THE GLORY

      And after Jesus explained the born again procedure to Nicodemus, he was indeed born again as a believer in Christ, thereby casting away his faith in religion. 
     Nicodemus was a Pharisee, a priest and a leader of the Jewish people.  He was also a member of the Sanhedrin, the high court in Israel.  His decision to follow Christ was not popular, and he was denied his office and banished from Jerusalem by the hostile Jews. 
     But after the crucifixion and death of Jesus, Nicodemus provided about a hundred pounds of myrrh and aloes at his own expense and helped others enbalm the body of Jesus in a tomb. 
     Mary, the mother of Jesus, also watched her son die that day, but upon seeing Jesus after His resurrection, she called her son, "Lord".  No longer would she see Him as a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, nor as a boy growing up in Nazareth, for her own son became her Savior.
    Mary was also one of the 120 people that were in a room praying on the day of Pentecost, at which time she received the Holy Spirit along with all the others.  Later, she traveled to Britain to minister to the needs of others and to proclaim the Gospel of Christ for the rest of her life.
    Joseph of Arimethea was the uncle of Mary and great uncle of Jesus.  Joseph had a thriving business as a tin merchant, yet his business did not experience financial decline because he chose to follow Jesus.  Joseph was a disciple, teacher, preacher and served the Lord at Glastonbury, where he also baptized converts and helped the congregation there to construct the first Christian church building in the world.
    Fanny Crosby lived from 1820 to 1915, and she wrote some of the most beloved hymns that have been sung in Christian churches for the past one hundred years.  In her lifetime, she composed more than 8,000 songs.  Fanny Crosby was blind from her birth.
    Over the past 2,000 years, millions of people have been born again in Christ Jesus, and all of them have done something for the Lord.  Thousands and thousands of believers fled Europe during a time of great persecution and they brought with them the Gospel of Christ to the United States and from here to around the world.  We should be thankful to them even though we will never hear their stories.
   One of Fanny Crosby's songs says it all:  To God Be The Glory.

A NEW BEGINNING

     Knowing Jesus Christ is a spiritual awakening, which is precisely the way the Lord explained it to a man by the name of Nicodemus in the third chapter of the Gospel of John.  Jesus said, "You must be born again," which also means born anew or born from above.  Nicodemus was a priest and he did not know this new birth.
    Jesus died on the cross to redeem the penalty of sin and to restore our relationship with God, and when we accept Him for salvation our sins are forgiven and our spirit is awakened into newness of life.
    Salvation is therefore a gift of God because of His love for us, by His grace and mercy.  All we need to do is simply accept His gift by accepting Christ.  There is nothing we can do to either work or earn our way to heaven; for if we could do that, then Christ would not have had to die on the cross.
     On the day of Pentecost, 120 believers of Christ were in a room.  They were praying.  That is when they received the gift of the Holy Spirit, who would empower them to walk in newness of life as well as to enable them to do for the Lord the task they could not do by themselves.
     For us, the only time we will be granted forgiveness of our sins is when we pray.  In this time of prayer, God forgives us and also gives us the gift of the Holy Spirit.  This does not mean, however, that we will be perfect and incapable of doing anything wrong because we will make errors.  But we also know that we can continually ask God to forgive us for our mistakes and He will.
     The new birth in Jesus Christ is the greatest experience I have ever had.  I have had more peace than I have ever known.  He has opened my mind to understand things than I never understood before.  In this time, too, I have made many blunders and foolish decisions. 
     Knowing Christ is all about a new beginning:  a new life that God has planned for us.
     Nicodemus the priest became a disciple of Christ and thereafter followed Him instead of following religion.
