YOU CHOSE THIS ALL BY YOURSELF!!!

As of late, I have been noticing a very disturbing situation going on. As I am usually writing or talking about the “Nearness of the Rapture” and “The Salvation through Jesus Christ”, I find that most are saying things like “Your Right” or maybe “You really have something there”! Obviously, these statements are not disturbing and for a while some will tell me, I’m doing a good job. Others smile and walk away, endeavoring to continue their daily lives, as they have done for a while, don’t want any sort of “bumps in the road”. What IS disturbing…no one seems to be doing anything, about what they have heard! I have written these things in other Blogs or articles, I have told others of what is happening and now it seems they are tired of hearing this! They show no sign that they have Looked to the Lord, or that they are even thinking about these things, much less giving their lives to Jesus!

We are not talking about “Valentine’s day” here, we’re talking about the “Rapture” and the “Lateness of the Hour”! I am saying what the Bible says, what I read in Gods Word, that Time is very, very short! People don’t seem to understand, the “Rapture” by Jesus Christ…IS…going to take place! It IS going to take place very, very, soon!! Then I have people telling me, “You need to be a little easier on the “Push” part, concerning Salvation”! I Beg your pardon?! Do you want me to tone-it-down a little?!?! “Well….it just seems like your pushing this issue a little too stringently!!” Noooo…I do NOT see that!!! As a matter of fact, I don’t feel anyone is “Pushing” this issue “Hard Enough”!! We are running around like crazy people ringing the alarm bells, setting off the sirens, doing whatever it takes to “Get Peoples attention”!! To wake them up!! To get them to see the dire situation is upon us!!

Here is the fact as I see it! First Jesus Christ is coming very soon to take HIS church (The True Believers) out of this world and it’s called “The Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ”! The Bible is telling us to “Prepare” ourselves, for we know not what hour the Master will come, but for YOU to be ready and waiting!! (Paraphrasing mine) This is like preparing the passengers of a sinking ship to evacuate! IF no one is paying any attention…the vast majority of the passengers are going to die by drowning! So then the question IS…WHO are the ones that WANT to die…and WHO are the ones that want to LIVE?! Those that want to LIVE must get into the LIFE RAFTS! IS this not simple enough?? Satan does not want you to go in the “Rapture” (Life Raft)! He wants YOU to DIE in Eternal Destruction with him! Therefore, this Idiot of Idiots (Satan) is putting earplugs in your ears and telling you everything is just fine, there is nothing to worry about, what could possibly go wrong on such a wonderful ship as this??(The World as we know it) Whoa…!!! What a minute here, Stop the Presses, Hold your horses, here hold the phone for a second!!!! SATAN is a LIAR!!! Doesn’t anyone realize this FACT? Then why…is everyone listening to him, putting the earplugs in their ears, they can’t hear the sirens and the alarm bells?!?! Everyone already KNOWS…everything has an end, so does this world…and it’s almost upon us!!

It’s as the Bible says, Luke 12:39 “And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.” We have banks and vaults, we have safety deposit boxes, we have security alarm systems, we have armed guards…do you see what I am talking about here?? We have all these things against thieves, but no one can hear the “Alarm bells and Sirens” going off about the “Rapture”?? Satan is going to do everything in his power…to steal away YOUR soul and go with him to Hell for Eternity!! Tell me I’m wrong here! Tell me I am up to my ears in horse hockey! Then…and only then…will I stop saying anything! Otherwise I am going to shout it from the rooftop and everyone will hear it!! It says in Matthew 24:50-51 “The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh NOT for him, and in an hour that he is NOT aware of, And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” Straight from the Word of God…to you and to me!! There is NO leniency here, NO way other than straight down the middle of the path!!

So…tell me again why I should NOT be pushy?! Oh…don’t want to upset the mood of the party…right?! WRONG!!! There is NO sign in the Bible of God being a wimp, nothing there that tells me God is going to be careful with what HE says either! As the Marines say, “It’s do or die!” This is what is so disturbing today!! It is true, Jesus Christ asks us to give this information and then HE will save them! I understand that! Jesus Christ never bowed out because HE was afraid of offending someone. Jesus Christ told it like it was and is and shall ever be! Jesus Christ tells us to go out and tell the world, “They are dying in their trespass and SIN!!” Jesus Christ is saying, “They are Dying” and why? Because of their “Trespass and SIN”! IF you do NOT come to the Cross of Jesus Christ and ask for HIS forgiveness of your sin and be washed in HIS blood…YOU WILL DIE FOR YOUR SIN!! That means a quick trip to Hell!! And to think…your going to be there forever…Eternally!!

You know what is even worse to think about? YOU CHOSE THIS…YOU ARE GOING TO HELL!! I didn’t say this, the Bible says this! All I’m trying to do is to get you to listen for a minute…so you don’t go to hell…I’m trying to tell you that satan hates you with an everlasting hatred!! Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to Heaven and the Father!! If YOU are NOT paying any attention, YOU won’t know what is going on…this is NOT an excuse that God will allow! My Job is to tell you what is going on and when…to give you the information on how to be saved from destruction! Problem is…NO ONE IS LISTENING!!! All that I can do now is to leave it to the Lord…if you won’t listen to those like me…then Jesus Christ is the only answer left!! I have done everything I can think of to do or say, I have done what the Lord Jesus Christ has asked of me and I have tried to be an individual that looks out for others and is dependable, because Jesus Christ Loved me first! Each person is responsible for themselves and I can’t stop thinking of what your going to say, as you stand at the Great White Throne of Judgement, as you look into the Eyes of Jesus Christ. YOU CHOSE THIS ALL BY YOURSELF!!

The Time is here and NOW!!

The times are impressive, to say the least! And the Word of God tells us, that things will become worse than they already are, as we approach the time of the “Rapture”. Churches, of all places, are preaching the “Heresy of Prosperity”, rather than the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Let me ask you a question! If the Bible is truly God’s Holy Word to us (Which I believe it is) and according to the Bible, we are in the “Time-line for the Rapture” (Which I believe we are)…..Why on earth would “Physical Prosperity” or the acquisition of “Things” be such a big deal??? We are talking about the “Rapture” here, Jesus Christ coming in the clouds to “Claim HIS Own”!!! And people are Preaching the “Acquisition of THINGS”?? Are YOU…so lazy…YOU can’t pick up the Bible and read it?! YOU would rather sit there in the pew and let anyone, tell you what you should do about…YOUR Salvation or the lack there of….essentially keeping you from knowing what Jesus Christ has said and will do for YOU in YOUR Life?? Am I missing something here??? Do YOU really want someone else to fill YOUR head with all the garbage of this world? YOU do not have the ability to “Verify” the sermons YOU have been hearing against the Word of God?? It is obvious to me, that the Path to Heaven IS indeed narrow and only a FEW will find it!!

Ah! I’m so sorry, look at what I have done here…I somehow have offended YOU!! Let’s start over and let me say these things again. YOU do NOT follow Jesus Christ….YOU go to HELL….for Eternity!! That’s FOREVER!!! Is that better?? I would rather die from starvation than to compromise my Relationship with Jesus Christ!!! People have become so obnoxious and have decided to go their own way, because it’s “Politically Correct” or they are being “Tolerant” to others. They are busy being the “Goody-Two-Shoes”! They want the “Emotional” side of Jesus Christ….They want to “Weep” about everything! They like feeling “Holier-than-thou” and to look down their noses, at people they feel are less than them! Funny how the Bible puts things, Like “Be sure YOUR sins will find YOU out”! As in Numbers 32:23 “But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.” I did NOT say this, God’s Holy Word, says it!!

Listen people, to what the Word of God is saying! I’m writing this information for you to read and at the same time, I am asking YOU to “Verify” what I have said here…ACCORDING to the Bible, God’s Holy Word!! Do NOT take my word for it!! VERIFY it….using the Bible!! Joel Osteen will NEVER tell YOU to do that!! If YOU can’t find anything in the Bible about it…then ask someone YOU trust to find it for YOU! Look in the Bible!! Read it!! Think about it and then ask the Lord God Almighty to show YOU! There is a “Big Black Line” and Jesus Christ is on one side…stupid satan is on the other side! There is NO way to stand on the Line, YOU must pick a side! The side YOU choose, is where you will reside for the Rest of Eternity…that’s forever…without end! The time is HERE!! What is it that YOU want…in all truthfulness?! Heaven for Eternity…or…Hell for all Eternity??

I have told so many people, about the Word of God, the Coming of the “Rapture” and the “Tribulation” that will immediately follow! I have stood there and watched them look off into “Whatever” place they feel safe in…convicted by God’s Word…and say nothing! My Heart breaks, because some of these people are very close to me! More than anything, I wish they would take a stand, one way or the other! When the day comes for the “Rapture”, they will no longer find me or my Wife, millions upon millions of people will suddenly disappear! At that very moment, these people will KNOW with out any doubt what has just taken place! I am not able to KNOW their level of fear at that moment, but I KNOW they will want to KNOW how to find Jesus Christ! They will see they have missed the Boat…missed the Rapture…and now they will have to live the “Tribulation”.

“Oh me…what is going on here?! If I don’t accept Jesus Christ as my Personal Savior, then I will die and never see Heaven or be with God”!! Is this what is going through their head, as they turn their face from me?? Nope!! It’s,”why is he telling me this stuff over and over again?! Can’t we just be friends and get along, laughing and joking together?!” To be brutally honest?? NO…we can’t be that way!! The “Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ”..is so very close…you could almost reach out and touch it!! What YOU need to understand is this, One day your physical life will be over and YOU didn’t make that choice for Jesus Christ!! You KNOW you should have, but…you kept putting it off, so now, your standing before Jesus Christ and HE can’t find your name in the “Lambs Book of Life”!! As you stand there and look into HIS eyes, your going to instantly KNOW the truth and where YOU are headed!! Jesus Christ stands there and looks at you…HIS heart Breaking…and you are then carried off to Hell!! YOU should have paid attention, you should have made the “Right Decision”, right there and then!! SO…who’s fault is it….that YOU are headed for Hell?? That’s right…it’s YOUR fault and no one else!! And the vast majority of people think they are so smart, so intelligent, so sophisticated, that they don’t feel they need Jesus Christ! Such a “Self-Imposed, Self-Serving and Obnoxious thought”! If this then offends you…guess what…you have not been reading the Word of God and you don’t know the answers to Life, why we are here. Rest assured, you will understand it very, very, soon!

A few days ago, I lost a friend to his own hands, as I lost one a couple of years ago. Two important friends…gone! They chose to end their lives and never once did they contemplate what their Eternal lives would be! “It’s all about me!” Right, that sure made it’s way into their thinking! It has actually made me angry! They have been so selfish, they never considered anyone else, never gave a thought to whom they were hurting, children and Grand-children, Other Friends and Family! You see “it’s all about me”, it’s all about my mistake, it’s about who hurt me…ME,ME,ME!! While at that moment, someone else was busy scurrying around and working for your benefit, but YOU…why, your the most important person! No need to bother your precious self about anyone around you, that truly cares for you, would help you in a heart-beat! Your too Big a person to stoop to anyone elses level!! You never gave anyone the chance to talk with you about Salvation, your Salvation!! All you have done is to leave them with questions, why would YOU do this? Nice to have a quick slap in the face and KNOW that YOU are headed for Hell, rather than Eternal Life! YOU talked a good game, had all the words you needed to lie to everyone, the best of intentions! Good job my Friends!! It has been nice knowing you! The END!!

Oh I get it! This is too personal, too in-depth, right? Actually…NO it isn’t, it’s NOT enough, NOT even close!! How can it be? You choose to kill yourself, but you can’t take any time to listen to the Word of God and decide where you want to spent Eternity? Tell me, I’ve missed the boat here, please! The most basic reason for all of us being here in the first place and instead of answering that question, you decide to put the cart before the horse? Pow!! Now your gone! Nope, it’s NOT too personal, it’s NOT too in-depth, as a matter of fact, we need to take this and run as far as we can with it and understand before others do the same ridiculous thing! I hope the rest of you will take this to heart, spend time with your Family and Friends, close or not, make sure they understand their need for Jesus Christ! Life is short for us…for a reason…whether your headed for Heaven or for Hell, that it is YOUR decision!

No Holy Spirit!! What has the world come to??

2 Thessalonians 2:7-8 “For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.” The Highlighted area in the verse above, is talking about the Holy Spirit. Think on this for a moment, pay attention for a moment, what would happen if the Holy Spirit was suddenly NOT here?! The vast majority have no idea what the “Holy Spirit” is about, therefore they have no idea of what would be lost, if HE left us. IF GOD SUDDENLY WITHDRAW HIS HOLY SPIRIT FROM THIS WORLD, WE WOULD HAVE NO LOVE, OR JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, GENTLENESS, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITH or FAITHFULNESS, MEEKNESS, OR TEMPERANCE, FOR THESE ARE ALL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT! And these are only what I could think of off the top of my head. Just remember this, that is a pretty good start, right?! Simply take each one of them and consider what the opposite would be, then…consider the world for one hour…without the benefit of the Holy Spirit. IF you are able to catch on to what I’m talking about, you will be able to see the Benefit of the Holy Spirit to EVERYONE on the face of this earth.

No one is going to care about helping anyone out, for any reason, because there is no Love any more! And the idea of entering a hospital for Emergency Help, will be non-existent. I have written before about this saying now days, “It’s all about ME!!” Well guess what? When the Holy Spirit is gone and you are still here, that particular statement will be an ultimate TRUTH! No one is going to care about anyone else, for any reason! No one is going to care about being lawful or courteous to you or anyone else! You think you have witnessed “Road Rage” before?? “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet!!” How about a man holding the door for a Lady or maybe it’s you accidentally bump someone in the store, do you think anyone is going to say “Excuse me”?? How about needing to go to the Church for some quiet time, what Church?? What quiet time and with whom?! Remember the last time you went “Window Shopping”, you saw something you would like to have?? It won’t be there! Someone else has seen it and broke the window and stolen it!! Go ahead and call 911 when someone decides to “Invade” your home, do you really think the Police will respond, or even EMS for that matter?! Let’s say your having a Heart Attack!! Now what?! No One cares any more, remember?? All of these things are going to take place…because the “Holy Spirit” is NO Longer here! The “Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ” has taken place…YOU are still here…YOU were left behind…the Holy Spirit is GONE!!

Here is one problem that I always see happening, “Well, I’m too busy for that right now! I’ll get around to it a little later, alright?!” And we’re talking about developing a relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! There is NO ONE on the face of this earth, that KNOWS when the “Rapture of the Church” will take place! It could be in 5 years or 5 months, 5 weeks or it could be this evening …NO ONE KNOWS except the Lord God Almighty! The thing is…are YOU going in the “Rapture” or are YOU going to be left behind?! There are too few people anymore that “Plan for the Future”!! Check out how many people have any REAL Savings in the bank, they either KNOW something every one else doesn’t…or their CRAZY! Let’s see here, what was the saying? Oh Yeah…”I’ve got more time than money”! Today…most do not have either, but for most “Left Behind” is going to spell out the worst of situations…death…will be common, because the human life will have no value any more!

Any crime that you can imagine, will be perpetrated over and over again and no one is going to care! Everyone will be more concerned with the atrocities, that are taking place in their lives, in their homes, to them and their families! They will not take the time to consider what is happening to you! YOU, my Friend…will be on YOUR OWN! Anarchy and chaos will be the head-lines across the world, the very instant, the “Rapture” takes place and millions and millions of people will have vanished …disappeared…gone! The Governments of this world will be worried beyond anything that has ever taken place before! With in days they will come up with a plausible idea, of what they think has happened. My Best guess would be, Aliens abducted all those people! It’s okay, go ahead and laugh, dis-regard what the Word of God says…Then after a month or so, let me know what you think then! Ooops…sorry! I won’t be here!! Never mind…just go ahead and think whatever you wish to think!

Here’s a scary one for you! With the “Rapture” already over with and everyone is beginning to settle back down, the Holy Spirit is gone…what about satan and his evil horde of demons?? TAPS “The Atlantic Paranormal Society” just popped into my head, from the TV shows. Imagine for me, if you will, what this group is going to deal with, when it comes to investigating a Haunted spot?! They are going to have their hands full, dealing with demons, instead of a ghost! They will immediately be far more satisfied, if they were to see a real ghost, than a real demon! So, how many demons does satan have anyway?? Yeah, I don’t know either! You can bet your bottom-dollar, there will be enough to go around. That’s for sure! So tell me now, how exempt will you be, from being attacked by a demon or two…or three, maybe more!

1 Thessalonians 5:9 “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ” The “Us” in the above verse, means those that belong to Jesus Christ! And then it says, “To Wrath”. In other words, if you belong to Jesus Christ, you are NOT meant to be here on earth during the “Tribulation” (Wrath). One must remember, if the Bible says something like “NOT appointed us to wrath”, then that means there must be those, that will be appointed TO experience Gods Wrath! Why do you think this has been written?? God Almighty….NEVER….does anything without telling everyone, Ahead of time! That means, if the “Rapture & the Tribulation” are in the Bible…YOU can be assured…it will take place!! So the question is, which side do you want to be found on, the side with Jesus Christ or with satan?? As with the rest of the Bible, everything is an “Either/or” situation, it is simply a “Black and White” situation. There has never been any sort of “In-Between” or middle ground.

Here is another thing. It does not matter how you feel about this! The Lord God never asked for YOUR opinion about what HE does or doesn’t do! Last I heard, it was God that created YOU, NOT the other way around! Besides that, I think HE has done a good job of creating the Universe, all by himself, don’t you??

The most important point here is this…NO Jesus….NO Heaven! That’s the name of that tune Brother!!

It’s not how well you die…it’s about how you Live!

As I have stated before, I was in the Medical Field for 40 years, therefore, my type of thinking is very straight forward, it’s called “Linear thinking”. This sort of thinking, I found to be so crucial, simply because of the nature of Medicine. If there is a problem, it has a cause and effect, so the question would be, “Am I able to treat both or just one of them”. For example, a person has the flu. The flu is a virus, therefore we have no treatment for it, but we are able to treat the symptoms and that is what we do. Now we do have the “Flu Shot” and it does a fair job at “Preventing” the person from getting the flu in the first place, but this is not 100% guaranteed. Be sure, that there are varying symptoms with the Flu and also varying degrees of effect on the Patient. We also know, that continual and effective “Handing washing Technique” is essential to prevent getting the flu, but does this mean a person will never get the Flu? Obviously…NO!

Linear Thinking is good for the Medical Field, because the Medical Field is grounded in “Empirical” Science, therefore any deviation is strongly dis-couraged. For the rest of the world, everything seems to have a “Technical Manual” to refer to when problems arise, or you are able to contact the manufacturer for more assistance. With our Human bodies the Manufacturer is God, which the vast majority in Science, would deny “Empirically”! And the “Technical Manual” is the Word of God, the Bible and of course everyone will deny this as well. The Bible says, Psalm 103:2-4 “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;” There is the answer!! “Trust the Lord, thy God. Who healeth all thy diseases”! Seems pretty “Linear” to me, for the world not so much though, they still like the “Empirical Thinking”.

I began smoking cigarettes when I was about 20-21 years of age, thought it made me look older and more sophisticated, how wrong was I. I am now 60 years of age and my two Physicians have done everything test-wise to show all the evils of smoking, I was suspecting the worst. I became a “Follower of Jesus Christ” about 10 years ago, but before that, I had every known problem there was for the average smoker. I had Bronchitis several times every year, as well as Pneumonia! You would have thought, I would have quit a lot sooner, but I digress. With in the last 10 years the Lord has wiped out every single problem I have had with smoking. I didn’t do this, the Lord God Almighty did it! I have had Lung Scans, Ultrasound for Plaque in my arteries, CT scan of my chest and neck and Profusion scans of my Heart…not a single thing came back other than normal. Again, I did NOT do this!! The Lord God Almighty did this and I have expressed this to my Physicians…in those exact words! Most of them said “I was just lucky”! Well guess what my Friends, there is no such a thing as “Luck”! My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, God, is in charge of everything, including what my body does. IT was never my body to begin with, neither was my Soul or Spirit, they all belong to God. All that I can say, is that the Lord has a Plan for me and it must include my body and HE is doing with me whatever HE wants and in whatever manner!

So what is it that I am saying here? Believe on the Lord with all your heart and HE will cure YOU of all your diseases? If your dying of Metastatic Cancer, simply believing with all your heart, you’ll be instantly cured? NO! I am saying this is what happened to me and it is according to what the Lord has in store for me, HIS Perfect Will! “Faith”….True and complete “Faith” in the Lord, is to completely TRUST the Lord God Almighty…….NO matter what is going on with you! It is knowing that HE will do whatever HE thinks is best for YOU, even if it means you die. Here’s the thing, we all fear death because we have been programmed by satan to fear it, just look at all the Hollywood movies about it! In 2 Corinthians 5:6-10 “Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” As a true Believer, with Metastatic Cancer, when we die, we are instantly with the Lord in Heaven! Or do you have a better place to be?! Do you really want to stay here on this planet, with all those that Lie and Cheat, steal, hate, the wars and famine, Pestilence?? The Apostle Paul had a difficult time with this, He said he would rather be with the Lord. If he was with the Lord, his trials and tribulations would be over with, but what about all those that had not heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Paul understood what his job here was and what it meant for the Lord to keep him here, even thought he did not want to stay. Think on this for a moment! Life here on this planet is very hard, one step after the other, no one is going to help you or even care for that matter.

As an “Un-Saved” individual, you are looking at staying here or going to Hell, in that case I would rather stay here too! If on the other hand, you are “Saved” to Jesus Christ, staying here is the worst and going to be with the Lord is to be in Heaven…INSTANTLY!!! Any “Rational” person knows this! This life is painful and difficult, there is little to no desirable qualities to staying here, unless you belong to Jesus Christ and your doing HIS Perfect Will in your Life! Here’s another REAL situation for ya, the “Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ” is coming very, very, quickly and the LAST thing you want to do is to miss that! I can not imagine, in my wildest dreams or imagination, how horrible the “Tribulation” is going to be…just know it will be horrendous at the least!

Where do you think all the “Diseases” of this world come from? It isn’t God!! It’s from the SIN in this world! Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, is the only person to have never sinned! Jesus Christ is the only one to die on a Cruel Cross and be buried and then Rise again on the third day! That means everyone else, ever born onto this planet is a sinner! There are two ways off this planet, to Eternal Hell or Eternal Heaven! That’s it, that’s all there is! To get to Heaven, you must choose before your death, to follow Jesus Christ and HIM only!! There is NO other God!! Trust me, when it comes to death, the usual manner of death is painful and unpleasant….NOT so if you belong to Jesus Christ! I have witnessed this situation more times than I could count and never have I seen a Child of the Lord die without the Lord being there and providing the Love HE has for them, the “Peace that passes all Understanding”! I belong to Jesus Christ and HE is ALL I need, HE is all YOU need as well!!

I am going to say it again and I’m going to continue to say it as well! The Ship is still in port and you still have a chance to get your boarding pass! But the ship’s gang-plank is about to be with-drawn and the ship will definitely leave port! Get your affairs in order, get your boarding pass now and be ready to leave! When the Captain comes to the bridge and gives the order, YOU will want to be aboard! Heaven is the destination and Jesus Christ is the ship and the Captain. After we set sail, the worst the world has ever known, even beyond that, will begin. The first 3 ½ years will be relatively quiet, but the last 3 ½ years will be worse than you could ever imagine! God’s Total wrath will commence all across the world and HE will wipe the globe clean of SIN and create the Earth has it was originally! Then Jesus Christ will begin HIS Millennial reign here on a NEW Earth and all those that have turned their back on Jesus Christ, will be in Eternal Damnation!                   Marantha Lord!

Our Body..Our Soul and Spirit..are NO Joke!!

I have about 40 years of Medical work on the Human Heart, that thing that pounds ever so lightly in the middle of your chest. Never has any one organ been so thoroughly dissected, drawn, pictured, explored, by Physicians and their Assistants in Modern Medical Societies. Most of all, no one has ever been able to manufacture a heart, with all the provisions or capabilities, that the Lord God Almighty did. This is truly an awe inspiring organ and still has not been fully researched and documented, to it’s fullest.

This society of ours, as humans, is so unaware of their own unique abilities and yet, wish to profess, that they are better than another. Using Common and rather ridiculous euphemisms like “Well…it’s all about me!” No…it is NOT all about you! It is important to note that each individual is important…to a certain degree. Each person has special talents and abilities, yet the true nature of this life is in the Society in which we live, Individuals as a whole, as a culture, even as a nation. Be sure that you understand, that in this life, it is the individual contribution to society as a whole, that truly matters. Looking at the pictures provided, you are able to see and distinguish the different parts of the Human heart, i.e., the left Ventricle (Main Pumping Chamber), the Electrical path from the Sino-Atrial Node to the Arterial-Ventricular node. What is so unique is, one part is NOT more important than another part, all must work in perfect harmony and Sync, in order for the individual Person to live. If there is no Heart, how will the Oxygenated Blood get moved around and latter become Venous Blood? If the Brain is not there, How will the Heart know how to beat? If the Lungs are not there, where and how will the Blood be oxygenated, to fulfill the needs of the Brain, which in turn makes the heart beat as it must? All the parts and their particular abilities are expressly needed for the “Entire Body” to function…”Normally”. Note here that I said “normally”. Note also, that we have not introduced any sort of movement or exertion of any kind, only that the body works in a Normal Fashion, that is conducive to Life. Medical expertise comes in to play when any one part is NOT working as originally meant.

The “SA Node” is the hearts pacemaker and must receive the electrical conduction from the “Vegas Nerve” at the base of your neck. Then the “SA Node” provides the electrical stimulus, at a particular timing and Milli-Amperage so that the rest of the Heart contracts or relaxes in a manner God intended it to. If that electrical stimulus does not occur, there is no heart beat, no heart beat, no blood is moved around and the Body will die. There MUST be perfect synchrony for this Heart to work and work well, considering that it must work for at least 70 years or better. Try and find anything “Man Made” that has that length of guaranteed lifespan! As you might surmise by now, I am making a correlation between the Individual and Society, by using the organs of our body as an example. Remember though, the body has constant needs that must be dealt with and on a recurring basis, eating for instance, or using the restroom. All the various parts of the Body are “Needful” every minute of every day, in order for each of us to live minute to minute. Thus when something goes wrong it can run from a simple cold to a Full-blown..catastrophic…Medical event…leading to death of the Body.

On that note, it is important to be continually evaluated, on a constant and unending basis, to be sure all parts are in good working order. We already know that someday we will all get old, we will all have Plaque build-up in our Arteries to some extent, of varying degrees, across a certain time frame and then one day will come, when our body will cease to function. In other words, our bodies are stamped with an “Expiration Date”, thing is…ONLY God knows that day and hour. In Psalm 14:1-3 “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” How can anyone be so foolish, to say there is no God, when all they have to do is to investigate their own body to find God’s handi-work! I believe that many have no real idea of how their body works, the effort that is expended to live one minute! This is NOT science! This is God showing us, the small human, His power to a certain extent. Ask the “Fool” to take an accounting of what he “knows” about his body and then, take note of his Soul and Spirit as well.

Everyday, I must look at all that I have learned across the years in my Medical Life and think on them over and over again, you never know when they may come in handy for someone. At the same time, I am overwhelmed by the thought, that God made such a wonderful creation as a human. This leads to thinking about the reason we were created by God in the first place. For HIM to be our God and for us to be HIS people and to Love each other…right into Eternity! There is however, a downside to being a human, our Spiritual Hearts are wicked beyond comprehension and the Lord God Almighty hates this, it’s called “SIN”. It is evident, that satan brought this “SIN” into every Spiritual Heart of every single person, to ever live on this small and insignificant little planet Earth. That “SIN” is what separates us from God! If Jesus Christ had NOT given up HIS life on that Roman Cross, we would have NO life after our bodies die! No place for our Soul and Spirit to go, except for Eternal Condemnation! God fights our battles for us, because there is no way we would be able battle satan and win! It is more than evident that satan is the Father of Lies and Flies, the ultimate hater of we Humans and he will do anything and everything he can, to help each of us step into Eternal Damnation, right along side of him!! Think on that for a moment!! This individual hates God so much, he wants to destroy us, in order to hurt God!! Does this sound fair to any of you?! John 3:14-18 “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.“

Reading that last paragraph over and over again, does nothing more than to show us…How Loving and caring our Creator God is, HE wishes to save each and every one of us! Anyone that does not accept this “Free Will” gift through Jesus Christ…is not a fool…that individual is worse than a fool! Problem is, I can’t think of a better word, to describe that person! Can you?! That is absolutely the craziest person of all…wants things his way…wants to live forever…so what does he do?!?! He choose the path of Eternal Destruction! That is simply “In-conceivable” to me! 70 years of doing whatever you please and just for 70 or so years…but “Thinks” he/she is worthy of Heaven?? It is far easier for me to think, if a person is so diseased as that, he/she should be removed from society…that person is a human cancer!! These people should be happy, that the Lord God Almighty Loves them so much, despite their continual treachery, to the one that created them!

That sort of person, I once was! Each of us were once that person! And because of that evidence against each of us…me…I fall on my knees in continual humility and Praise and thank My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for this life of mine, regardless of how tough life is! I Pray to the Lord to return and take us out of this misery in the “Rapture”. At the same time, I am so very sorry for the People, that just can’t see what our life and the Lord are all about!! The horror to come in the “Tribulation” and the lose of life by the hand of God, because of their rebellion to HIM, makes my heart hurt, instills such fear for them. What ever they do, they need to be in the Rapture with the rest of us, they will not be able to stand against the Wrath of God, brought on them…because it’s just too hard for them to Believe!! Marantha Lord!!!!

Do YOU have a date with Death…The “Rapture”…or what?

I have been talking with many that I know and trying desperately to get them to see the events, taking place around this world, that give some-what of a time frame to the coming Rapture. For the most part, I am beginning to think, that I am failing. At times, even those close to me, just can’t see the trees because the forest is in the way! I am not willing to give up though! If the Lord thinks it is important for many to know what is to come, that is good enough for me to keep writing and speaking! I remember a number of years ago, I was particularly up-beat about the whole episode to come for this world. Then one day, I had a thought, “What if they will not understand….simply because….they are still blinded by this world?” Think on this for a moment, the Money, the power, the cars and houses and the big bank account are still more important than the Lord or HIS Word? We the True Bible Believers, are able to see through this mysterious veil and see it for what it really is! And the reason why is this, We were chosen by the Lord, long before the Universe was ever made! Besides that, the Lord never said, getting the Word of God out to others was going to be easy! In my mind though, it is simpler for me to believe the Word of God, to see that “Salvation or the Lack there of” is the ultimate question for every person ever born on this planet!

What boggles my mind is this; how far a person will go to keep from reading the Bible…or to conceive the idea of how not to read it. They spend more time and effort, when ultimately it would be easiest to just say no, I don’t want to read it! This tells me one thing, they have no idea what is in the Bible, but they do know, in their hearts, they should read it. I know, I know, they simply want to spare my feelings, but what are my feelings going to be when they die….to Hell?! I had a Friend a few years ago, that had his own business and for a while he was doing really great. As it turned out, when the economy failed, so did his business and 100′s were left unemployed. While things were going well and he making millions, I would tell him to stop praying at the alter of money. He didn’t listen then and when his business fell though, he felt responsible and in the end had to deal with a lot depression. This was to the point he would never call me or take my calls, I had told him he needed to give the Lord the credit for his booming business. Instead he and the rest of the company, kept gouging the customers in every way, just to make more money. One day His Wife and Daughter were in town shopping, he went out on the back porch, took a shotgun and blew a hole through his chest. He never made an effort to think about the Lord or to accept the Lord’s Free gift of Salvation and now we all know where he is and where he will spend Eternity….it breaks my Heart!!! Money and things…had clouded his thinking and brought nothing but misery and depression.  It would have been so much easier, to turn your life over to the Lord and let HIM take care of your life! To let the Lord direct you at every turn, to show you how to prosper and Let the Lord shine in your Life. This is what the Lord wants for us to do! That mysterious veil is nothing but a lie and all the years man has been on this earth, it has never changed. That states the obvious problem, that everyone should have already understood, “If it didn’t work for the first hundred people, what makes you think, it will be different for you?!” Let’s say that the first 100 people to go after this idea, took place within the first 500 years of man on this earth. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to follow a different path, there after? It is obvious that satan is doing his best to get you to believe that YOU can make the difference…simply because it’s YOU!! What a lie!! And to think, people still believe this lie and keep doing the same thing, talk about ignorance!

Jesus Christ never owned a home, HE never owned live stock, HE never owned a business. Can you guess why? Remember now HE is GOD…in human flesh! Those things are worthless in Heaven! In Matthew 6:20-21 “But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.“Luke 12:33-34 “Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Or maybe you remember where in John 4:24 “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” And then we must not forget to read in Genesis 1:26-27 “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. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” This means that God was making man and woman as a “Spirit”, our Soul and Spirit are like God, NOT our Bodies. It has everything to do with our Spirit, therefore anything outside of a Spiritual rhelm is worthless, that we are not to concern ourselves with that, it is of the world. Does this make sense? I truly hope so!

In the context of this world and the “Rapture” to come, it is even more relevant to us, that we read the Scriptures and Believe. In 2 Corinthians 6:16-18 “And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore 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.” It means that, we are created in God’s Image, a Spirit, therefore everything we should seek, we should do so for the betterment of our Spirit, not the betterment of our bodies and this is so very important to know! In essence, the Word of God is telling us to forget about the physical world and all that is in it, it is worthless to us in the Long run. This understanding will make life for us…easier! It is said in Philippians 4:19 “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” In an instance, faster than conceivable in our imagination, our bodies will be changed to incorruptible! We will have the bodies Good originally had in mind for us. This change only takes place once you give your life to the lord and seek the things found only in Heaven. The things of this world will remain here on earth and will no longer be a concern to us. If that is the case, then why should we be concerned with the things of this earth while we’re here? Remember, money is nothing more than paper made from trees and ink from plants applied to it…it is worthless!! Stop and think for a moment, if God created this earth, wouldn’t he be able to create a home for you? It says in Luke 18:25-27 “For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved? And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.” This leaves no doubt as to whom all things are possible for, whether they be Physical or Spiritual. In my opinion, it is far easier to follow Jesus Christ and KNOW I am going to Heaven. Jesus Christ stated in John 15:4-6 “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.” In Black and white my Friends, you can do nothing without Jesus Christ! You want to go to Heaven? Then you must come to Jesus Christ…there is no other way!! It’s one way or the other….Heaven or Hell!!

The Love of many shall wax cold!

It never ceases to amaze me, we can “Give” away Billions upon Billions of dollars to a Country like Pakistan or Afghanistan and yet, our own people suffer. Our Government has also told our own people, that we should not be the owner of any weapon of any kind and then turn away funds, that would aid our Police Departments. Our own Government has taken away funds that would assist our local Fire Departments as well and we have watched a Fire Department stand a ways off, as someones home burns to the ground. We see the “Up-tick” of grave violence in crimes across our Country and the victims are left to die, because of financial restrictions at the local level. And now, we read in the “Leftist News Media” that our Government Officials are going to reduce the number of our Military, the “Lean and More agile all-Voluntary Military”. Today, I read where President Obama has stated, talked to, inferred, asked, pleaded…whatever…that Companies across this Country, recall their “Out-Sourced Jobs”. This and many other things such as an “Open Border” policy and that any illegal immigrant can live here, work here (or not) and access Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, Emergency services of any kind, have children here and avail themselves of our Public Education …without any cost repercussion of any kind. Oh! It’s all coming to an end!! Fret…Fret!! WHAT??

It is told in Matthew 24:8-14 “All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” So what are we being told here? We remember in John 13:34 “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.” How then, does this play into all that I stated above? Ecclesiastes 9:1-3 “For all this I considered in my heart even to declare all this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God: no man knoweth either love or hatred by all that is before them. All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath. This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.” Of course when you go to be with the dead, it is what was done during your life…that counts. Knowing this, we should be “Different” from the rest of the world, NOT like those that are dying in their sin. In other words, We…the Saved to Jesus Christ…ARE different!!

We already KNOW in our hearts that the RICHES of God are beyond our ability to know or imagine. Having read this, we now understand, that to be like our Father in Heaven, we should be the first to use the “Wisdom of the Lord” (through HIS Word) to conquer the ills of our little world, regardless of what they do or say. We KNOW the Lord…is Lord…over all!! It says in Colossians 3:23-25 “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.” We see the rest of the world running around doing whatever they wish, because they see a dwindling of their resources. Remember, they have only the resources of this planet, not the Resources of the Lord God Almighty! So when we see the rest of the world running away from a problem, we should be running to them, Helping them, assuring them, that the Lord is still the Lord and all things and persons are in HIS capable hands. We should be relying on the resources of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, did HE not tell us to place our cares in HIS hands? Did HE create this world with HIS hands or did HE not? With this firmly in our minds and hearts and KNOWING our Lord as we should, our resources come from the Lord! We must feed them, we must assure all those that suffer that Jesus Christ Loves them and cares for them. Pull the money from our pockets and…give it to them! Do you not understand that money is nothing but paper with ink on it, do you not KNOW the Lord has riches untold?! So what is there for you, as a Born-Again Christian, to suffer as a lose?! Nothing!!

Look at Matthew 24:8-14 again (Up above!!) do you see the evidence? What do you have to be afraid of, the lose of food or wealth to buy food? Did the Lord make manna to fall like rain for the Israelites as they wandered in the wilderness? Did the Lord provide them water from a rock and so now we worry that we won’t have food to eat or someplace to live? If you are worried about these things, then you are mis-guided and need to start reading the Word of God all over again! Ask yourself, when was the last time you planted a garden and watched the hand of the Lord at work? “Oh! I don’t have a job and where will the next meal come from! How are we going to make the Mortgage payment and still pay for the utilities and the kids need clothes for school!!” Oh worry, worry, worry! And you sit in Church and tell others that the Lord is Lord of your heart?? Where’s the proof?! You have the same problems as those that are not saved and your asking questions like that…when you KNOW you should hear your knees hitting the floor in reverence! Did the Lord ask us to bring our problems to HIM? Did HE say that HE loves you and will provide for all your Needs?!

Here is the answer that will end the questions, like those at the beginning. It says in James 4:1-7 “From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” There you are, the answer to all the problems we could ever face while we live in this world. And what about death?! Does the Bible not say…”The Lord conquered death” Does it also say that “The Lord holds the keys to death and Hell”? So tell me now, what are our problems…with whom…and for what reason?? Jesus Christ is Lord over all, Jesus Christ created the earth and everything in it….of what should we be afraid?? “To be absent of the Body is to be present with the Lord”…IF…your life should be required of you. We MUST be careful of the “Worries” we associate ourselves with, are we “Different or not”?? Marantha Lord!

It still seems…it’s the little things that matter!

Just finished reading the article by Ron Graham “The Kingdom of Darkness”. I truly understand the implications of this article and I am amazed by the depth of truth, which if viewed carefully, is vilified in our Leftist-News Media. I am also intrigued by the fact, that few have even taken notice of this downward spiral in our Governmental Affairs. It is in my estimation, according to the Bible, many have made it into the Halls of Highest Government positions….as a patsy…for satan and his hordes. I am also aware they are there and they are made ignorant for a purpose, elected by the ignorant of God’s Holy Word. It is one thing to be ignorant through the lack of education, it is quite another, to be ignorant because the Lord God Almighty has designated it so. This must be another way the Lord shows us, that the “Intellect of Man” is foolishness to God. That is something surprising to have written in the History Books for our Children to read, a man or men, made stupid for the furtherance of Gods Holy and Perfect Plan! Amazing!

I remember reading about all the horrible things that are going to take place during the “Tribulation”. I also remember wondering how all these things will take place, famine for instance. Think on this for a moment! Texas has seen a very hard Drought this 2011 and so, on that note, I was wondering how this would effect the production of grains, especially for the future. Keep in mind, the “Rapture” is very, very, close at hand, thusly, the Famine or the Mother of all Famines, would take place during the Tribulation, as spoken in the Bible. I kept thinking to myself, that this would have to be a situation, that would require a fairly lengthy set-up time. Not only a time oriented collapse, but with an intricate set of details as well. Bringing water to an area known for it agricultural prowess, would not be difficult, expensive yes, but not difficult in the least, especially with today’s technology. Having stated this, I began to think of the intricate process required for Planting, watering and Growing Grain. I have endeavored in the past to have a Garden of my own, with Tomatoes, Cucumber, Sweet Peppers. I am by no means a Farmer, as my Garden is quite small, but…the requirements are the same, only the magnitude is different. I remember the time when the blossoms would appear and with them, so did the number of Honey Bees. A very integral part of the pollination process!

The “ Press Association” brought this article to attention on “Yahoo News”;

A mysterious phenomenon that has decimated honey bee populations could be linked to a “zombifying” parasitic fly, scientists believe. Colony collapse disorder (CCD) is marked by the sudden disappearance of worker bees from a colony.

It was first recognized as a serious problem by US beekeepers in 2006, but has also affected bee colonies across western Europe. In some of the recorded cases, bee losses have reached levels of up to 90%. Viral and fungal infections and toxic chemicals in pesticides have all been suggested as possible explanations for CCD.

The new theory involves the parasitic fly Apocephalus borealis which is already known to attack bumble bees. Evidence has now emerged of the fly targeting honey bees. The insect lays its eggs in the abdomens of bees, which start displaying “zombie” behavior, abandoning their hives en masse to congregate near lights. Finally they die, and the fly larvae emerge from their bodies.

All of a sudden, the entire process becomes one of a future calamity, that only God could bring about! Like I said, it is easy to bring water to an area needed for the Production of Grain, it is quite a different story trying to stop the Hand of God. Flies have been around this earth for a very, long time and never before has man been able to eradicate them, or even scratch the surface of eradication. Here again, the intellect of man falls short! And then to think, that the first knowledge of this parasite was in 2006…we are way behind on the curve! One only needs to remember that all things across the earth, that live and grow, are made up of varying types of tissue…the Breeding ground of Flies, as they decompose. We need no more than to look around us, to see the Hand of God at work, these things profess the Perfect Plan of our Lord and Savior, that HE will make HIS Prophecies come to bear on man…the “Tribulation”.

If one needs to see more, how about the thousands of fish that have died for no apparent reason? Is there a hand in this, by God, telling we humans that the “Judgement of the Lord is Coming”?? If in fact, we do see this, then why are so many still not accepting the Bible as “The Word of God”? How is it that, the vast majority of the Worlds Population, does NOT accept the Bible as fact, that it is indeed the bearer of Prophecy, concerning the “Rapture and the Tribulation”. Taking into account, that the Bible has been verified and vilified as the Word of God, one would think the Prophecies alone would be sought out by the Leaders of all Nations. It will not be without consequence on humanity, that ignorance of the Word of God will condemn the vast majority to the various calamities in the Bible. Be it known then, the Bible states that the Prince of the Air…satan…condemns and the Holy Spirit…Convicts. Big difference here! I prefer to be convicted of my Sin and allowed to be “Forgiven” through the Blood of Jesus Christ on the Cross at Calvary. It is another to be Condemned of my Sin…by satan (Who hates me!)…and then made to pay for my Sin…in Hell for Eternity!!As horrible as the aspects of the “Tribulation” are, there has been hope in the Bible, and oddly enough, has been there for better than 2600 years, for all to see. It is also note-worthy, that by the time the “Tribulation” begins, the entire world will KNOW of the Bible, as the Word of God! Marantha Lord!!!

The Glory of Our Lord and Savior and our humility!

Philippians 4:19-20 “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” Here we are in the through of ending 2011 and beginning 2012. Millions are in desperate need of a job, even if that job merits $9.00-$12.00 an hour. Our hay-day of the past is exactly like time, it’s gone and so are the big high-paying jobs, sad as that may be. Many will never see those jobs of yester-year again and in consequence the lifestyles as well. Many like me, will rely on the Ford Taurus line of vehicles, because they are penny-pinchers with gasoline, they are sturdy and easy and inexpensive to fix, thus a well made vehicle, that can stand the test of time. One particular thought comes to mind and then is vilified through out the media, “I used to have a BMW, a big House in a great gated neighborhood and my kids went to the best of schools. I never had to worry about anything, because I had a big bank account, stocks and money market funds. Now…I just wish I could put food on the table 3 times a day and still have a little money after utilities”. Has it ever occurred to anyone, to stop and wonder why this thing has come about? As much as I fear, this statement above has been stated by “Born-Again Christians” as much as those that are unsaved. So the question then is, WHY? Reread the verse above, the answer is there! Believers putting their faith and trust in their “Things” rather than in the hands of our Lord and Savior. Do you remember Ephesians 2:4-9 “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” It makes me wonder just how calloused we truly are?

We sit at the precipice of the “Rapture of the Church” and the beginning of the “Tribulation” as outlined by the Bible and we worry for what we used to have?! Have you ever considered the fact, that the Lord is trying to tell you something, HE sure did with me! Lets stop and think for a moment, what if the Lord comes tomorrow evening? What should our frame of mind be? What about humility and Reverence before the Lord, it says in Proverbs 15:31-33 “The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.” The Catholics have jumped on this verse big time, their life is to be a Vow of humility. Which means nothing actually, except that they have missed a very integral part of the Bible, that it should be a “Desire of the Heart”. Do you remember that the Bible says in Hebrews 4:12 “For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” And then in John 15:1-7 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” I fail to see where anyone will not understand the true meaning of these verses, or fail to understand why the “Things” of this world, are useless and have no real value. 

We see that the “Desires of our Heart” is what separates us and the Lord, it is the intent found in our Hearts. Everything we read in the Bible, God’s Holy Word to us, speaks of humility, being Humble like a child, before God. Therefore, the lose of “Things” in our lives can be interpreted as being a “Humbling” event, the Lord turning our hearts and minds to HIM for all that we need. Notice here, that I said “Our Needs”! Understand there is a difference between Our Needs and Our Wants! It says in Luke 18:16-17 “But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.” That says it all!! 

As we watch this world devour itself and turn everything inside out, we must keep in mind, What the Lord wants of us, as HE returns and calls us home in the Rapture. Anyone of wealth or Position in life, will find it is not the dividing criteria according to the Lord and if you, by chance, think so…wait and see whom remains and who goes in the Rapture. The Criteria for Heaven is richly found, within the pages and pages, on RaptureReady.com. People of knowledge and Wisdom of the Lord, expounding the Truths of the Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and of all the Prophecies according to the “End Times”. The Rapture and the Tribulation are a part of the Prophecies and yet we must continue to preach the Wisdom of the Lord found in His Gospels, otherwise we will end up neglecting the Necessities for Salvation. It continually amazes me, how intricately the inter-weaving of the Word of God is, you can not have one part without declaring the value of the rest. I marvel how the Old Testament is the foundation for the entire Bible and yet the New Testament brings the whole into the perspective of our daily needs today. As you read the New Testament, it rolls you back to the Old Testament and vise versa. Trust when I say, there are many writers that would give their arms and legs to be able to roll a novel, that can do such. 

When one is able to look at the sheer Power of Our Lord and Savior, one can only be humbled to the extreme, the Lord’s Power goes beyond our ability to conceive or understand. Keeping the Lord’s Power in mind, we then understand a verse like Matthew 10:28-31 “And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.” Each and everyone of us are Known by the Lord God Almighty, HE created each of us. Having said that, do you understand a little better why we must keep the “Intent of Our Hearts” according to the Perfect Will of the Lord? 

This area of the Word of God, is also the area that turns many away from the Lord. Many will endeavor to “adjust” the Word of God to suit themselves and their decisions and desires. Many will be too Proud of Heart, to be willing to bow, to the Perfect Will of God, that is, until they stand before the Son of God. It is more simple to say, the Lord will govern my entire Life and thus I receive Heaven, than to worship our “Things” and spend Eternity in Hell! As strange as it may be, the vast majority are more willing to acquire “Wealth and Pleasures” of this life, which lasts approximately 70 years, than to think in the Long term of Eternity. With this sort of thinking, do you see the difficulty in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ? And yet this is exactly what the Lord asks us to do! Schools teach us how to count, higher education teaches us the value of looking forward and planning ahead. Yet for all that we Preach and teach, the vast majority never takes the Time line, of 70 years verses Eternity, into account and then consider Salvation. The “Great Delusion” has been in force for quite a spell now, but come the Tribulation…it will explode on this earth and the world….like no other! To the point it will even effect the “Elect of God” that will still be here. It is then, the Vastness of Eternity, the sheer Power of our God, the depth of HIS Love for us, that will free us from this world and make us whole. The humbleness of our Hearts, the Love for our Lord and Savior, is the only life line we have and yet it is sufficient for us. Jesus Christ still saves, Praise the Lord! Marantha Lord!

It is vitally important that you understand!

Alrighty then, as Jim Fletcher of “RaptureReady.com” stated I am going to put on my Big Boy pants and make a startling comment! It is FACT that My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem…a JEW…and he was born to Mary and Joseph…who were JEWS as well. Mary and Joseph, the parents of Jesus Christ, were in the lineage of King David and Mary and Joseph and Jesus worshiped God in the Synagogue in Jerusalem. Jesus Christ is Lord, HE is also God…in human form, as is the Holy Spirit is God and the Father is God, they are the personage of God…all together!! Now…if you have a problem with that…first realize, it is YOUR problem, not mine! I already KNOW these facts and I call Jesus Christ my Lord…I have NO problem with prostrating myself in HIS view. I am HIS servant, I will do as HE asks me to do and if that calls for my death, then so be it!! I KNOW where I am going to be in Eternity…Heaven with my Lord and Savior!

As I stated in my last writing, I am an “Saved Alpha Dog” who desperately wants to be more like a “Saved Beta Dog”. If you recall, I use this naming to make it easier to see my faults and learn from others, but…I will NOT follow or listen to anyone, that speaks against the Word of God to us, the Bible. The Lord God almighty has shown me many things in my own life that proves to me…HE is GOD! HE has shown me how my Life came to be and by whom and HIS hand was in everything long before I was ever thought of. My Lord knows my errors and Sin…as do I…and it is HIS Love that covered my SIN with HIS precious Blood on the Cross at Calvary. I enjoy saying “I am so saved in ain’t even funny” and as a matter of Fact…my being saved is down-right serious!

The next thing that I remember, was the overwhelming need to study the Word of God, to better understand why I am here and what I am suppose to be doing while I’m here. I am still working on this part and I probably will be for the rest of my Life. The reason is simple actually, as I read the Word of God, I ask for His Wisdom and Discernment, which the Lord provides and then I sit back and watch each and every verse expand in every direction. The verses of the Bible take on a Life of their own and they grow deeper and the verbiage expands as well, translation is enormous, thus I learn and learn and continue. This is what the “Unsaved Individual” never sees in the Bible, no matter how many times they read it, it never makes sense to them.

I WANT to KNOW…my Lord and Savior, I want to KNOW why HE would die on a Roman Cross for someone like me, so as I read and read, I begin to understand HIS love. At the moment, I yearn to see HIS face, to put my ear to HIS chest and hear HIS Heart, the heart that stopped for three days, just to save a worthless individual as me. Here’s what is so weird, Jesus Christ thinks I am so valuable, that HE would give up HIS life to save someone like me and yet the world would rather I not consume another breathe of air. Therefore to the world I say this, you think you have what it takes to take me out?! Bring it on!!! Now, if by sheer chance, you succeed, know this…YOU will have actually sent me where I want to be…with my Lord and Savior…in anticipation of this feat…Thank you from the bottom of my Heart! By the same token, if you fail, the next person you will see is Jesus Christ, but sadly, your destination will not be what you want it to be! As my Dad used to say, “Put that in your pipe and smoke it!” John 15:18-19 “If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.” That speaks volumes to me! I am not trying to be obnoxious here, I am speaking the truth, with my Lord…I fear nothing and no one! Come time, I will hear my Lord say to me, Matthew 25:23 ” His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” That is all I want to hear my Lord say, and when I look into HIS eyes, I will see HIS joy and Happiness, what more could anyone ask for??

Somewhere along the way, people have gotten on the wrong foot, they somehow think they can DO something great enough to BUY their way into Heaven! That is totally WRONG!! That is satan talking to you and like an idiot, your listening to him, just like Adam and Eve. It says in John 15:5-7 “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” There it is, in writing, straight from the Word of God, the Bible! You can NOT say enough “Hail Mary’s” and you can NOT say enough “Our Father’s” and if you pray to Mary, your Prayers will never be heard…Jesus Christ is Lord! THERE IS NO OTHER GOD! JESUS CHRIST IS LORD AND GOD! If you so desire to pray…and…you want your prayers to be heard…then pray to God…and no other! John 14:6-7 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.” There is no other explanation, there is no other way, there is only one God and HE is the only one that hears your Prayers! Your relationship with the Lord God Almighty…is a “One on One” relationship…Jesus Christ is Lord of all and Jesus Christ is GOD!

 

The point is this! The problem is not me or anyone like me…it is YOU! YOU have until the moment of your death or the Rapture, to find Jesus Christ and make a relationship with HIM…on HIS terms, not your terms! After death or the Rapture, there are only two places to go…Heaven…or hell! It is YOUR decision, not anyone else’s…and there will not be any acceptable excuses…you are either saved by Grace of Jesus Christ…you go to Heaven…or you are not saved and your are certainly headed for Hell! One last thing to remember…either way you go…it will last for Eternity…that is forever and ever!!

“RaptureReady” is here along with others, that believe the Word of God is the absolute truth, that Jesus Christ is Lord over all and all of us will stand before HIM…and HE will either be your Father…or your Judge and executioner! It is vitally important that you understand, the DECISION has always be YOURS to make! No one will ever be able to intercede for you, there is no human…righteous enough for that task, no Priest…no Pastor…no Rabbi…no Imam…whatever, able to save you from eternal hell! As Jesus Christ said “I am the way the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the Father except by me”!

 

Everything in the Word of God, the Bible, points to this one central idea and it is the truth, because God said so, for me that is enough! The “Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ” is very, very, close to taking place. Being that time is so very, very, short, take a few moments and ask the Lord for HIS Wisdom and Discernment and then read the Bible! Start in Matthew and read, try and understand that Jesus Christ Loves you as much as HE loves me, He doesn’t want you to go to Hell, but YOU must ask HIM into your Life! It doesn’t matter what you have ever done before in your Life, no matter whatever you think you have done wrong! Jesus Christ is here and is always willing to accept you and forgive you of your sin, if you will ask HIM to! You will then be an adopted Son of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and you will inherit Heaven for Eternity! Being that no one ever knows the day of their death, it is always a sudden occurrence, it makes this need more important than ever. Don’t wait, don’t put it off, you will never know when today…ends for you! I Hope and Pray I will see you in the Rapture, so until then may the Lord Bless and keep you, until we sit at HIS feet in Heaven. Marantha Lord!
