Christian Apostasy

A Couple Thoughts

2012-02-15T13:34:00.008-07:00

Some recent thoughts here from conversations with the Lord:

1. Everything the Lord does has been and will be counterfeited by Satan and his minions. So what? So along the entire way through the seventieth week of Daniel people will never be completely sure whether they are seeing the wrath of God or a counterfeit. Example? HAARP. We are seeing tremendous earthquake activity, we are hearing strange sounds from the heavens etc and people wonder "are we being setup by some manmade hoax or are we seeing genuine signs." I now believe that HAARP and "project blue beam" and everything of this nature that is manmade are PsyOps (they probably exist but only with enough form to cause doubt) against the people of the world to place doubt in their minds of whether what they are seeing in the world around them is real. Remember, HAARP doesn't have to work to achieve "their" goals. All they have to do is create the thought that it might work for the PsyOp (lie/deception) to be successful.

Bottom line: treat all the signs as if they are real, take them all seriously. The Lord told us to be patient and watching, He knew before all this started what we would be facing.

2. We may not know what we thought we knew about how the seventieth week of Daniel will play out. For example, take Revelation 6 with its six seals:

-could seal 1 have already been opened and the anti-christ has been revealed? Its possible (Obama?), all I am asking is "is it possible?" not is it probable or are we sure etc, just is it possible...Yes. Has he been indwelt fully by Satan yet? Not likely. Does he meet all the requirements to be AC? So far he is the leading candidate on this writers list.

-could seal 2 have already opened "Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other"

Do we see men slaying each other around the world today? Yes, is it possible that seal 2 has been opened? Yes.

The third seal is famine, are people starving to death today? Yes. Are the weather patterns and gas prices going through the roof again working together to cause more and more people to die of famine? Yes. Is it possible that although the fulness of this seal has not been seen yet, the seal has been opened? Yes

The fourth seal is death and 1/4 of the earth given to its hand. This has always been a hangup for me, but I see it in a new light today. Death does not have to take you today for its seed to be working within you. Remember the pale rider, riding through the Egypt revolution last year? Remember the mass oceanic and atmospheric poisoning of the earth resulting from Fukushima (which has not been cleaned up to this day)? The poisoning of land sea and air is here and now. Fluoride is in the water, chemtrails in the air, radiation and millions of gallons of pollution from the BP disaster have poisoned the oceans, what does this all add up to? Death...the seeds have been planted, the fruit has not ripened yet, could the fourth seal have already been opened? YES

Fifth seal, martyred souls under the alter in heaven crying out to the Lord. Yes or no question here, has an untold army of Christians already been martyred all around the world for the Lord's work? Yes or no? YES, in the most remote parts of the world to the cities of the largest countries the Lord's servants have been martyred for Him. Could the fifth seal have been opened? YES

This leads me to the sixth seal. The Lord gives his servants various pieces of the picture but not all the picture goes to one servant. This servant has been looking up and dialed in to the earth changes, specifically earthquakes which warn us of coming judgement. As we scan through the book of Revelation where do we see the first mention of large earthquakes? Revelation 6 and Revelation 8. What is it that this writer has been expecting sometime late this month or next month? A (more than one?) very large earthquake. A very large quake that would be catastrophic in nature seem to point us where in the Revelation chapters? Rev 6-seal 6 and Rev 8:4.

What does this mean? I'm not entirely sure. We saw Revelation 12 play itself to the letter this past fall in the heavens, what does that mean? What this all says to this writer is we do not know quite what we thought we knew about the details of how the seventieth week will play itself out.

Where does that leave us? With signs all around us, BE READY to meet the Lord any day now. Time may be shorter than any of us imagine.

M6.5 Solomon Islands, M 6 Honshu Japan

2012-02-14T13:40:00.002-07:00

2 major quakes today, a 6.5 and a 6 in two different locations. Tomorrow starts us off on the latter half of February which also begins our watch for at least one major quake with a magnitude at or above that of last years Japan M9.0 earthquake.

Recently I have been asking the Lord about timing. Where are we at on your timeline Lord? I think the response I received is that most of what we think we know about the timing of the events of Revelation are wrong. We know everything written there will happen, we just dont know when most of it will take place. Some things are more certain than others, for example I do not think my understanding of the timing of the escape from all is misplaced.

An example of how this might work is the seals of Rev 6. We know that 1/4 of the earths population will die as a result of the opening of the early seals of Rev 6, but when during the seventieth week of Daniel will this happen? Will it be spread out evenly over 7 years? Will it be all in one day? Or will it be a completely uneven distribution thats all over the place? The timing will make a big difference.

I don't have more time to write today but I think we need to be on our highest alert over the balance of this month through the end of March and maybe into early April. Revelation 6 ends with a large earthquake, Revelation 8 begins with a large earthquake. The large quakes we have been seeing are meant to get our attention. All of the large quakes this year have been in the oceans and have gone unnoticed by most of the people because the lamestream media do not report on them.

Aside from the large quakes we have seen and likely will see, my inner witness tells me to be watching like never before. For what? For the return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and all the events that attend that return.

Watch The Feast of Purim 2012

2012-02-09T12:29:00.012-07:00

We have been watching the earthquake window looking for a big earthquake sometime in the late February-March timeframe. I thought there were no feast days during this time but I was wrong, there is the feast of purim.

I want to keep this short so here are the points I want to make:

1. Major earthquake window focusing our attention over this time period (late Feb-March)

2. Feast of Purim: how is it significant based on what we see in the world right now?

Reference:

http://www.chabad.org/holidays/purim/article_cdo/aid/648312/jewish/Purim-2012-Guide.htm

-Wars and rumors of wars focused on which state actors? Israel and Iran (ancient Persia)

Who were the actors in the feast of purim saga? Israel and Iran.

What was the feast about? The festival of Purim is celebrated every year on the 14th of the Hebrew month ofAdar (late winter/early spring). It commemorates the salvation of the Jewish people in ancient Persia

What do we know about the coming Ezekiel 38 war? The Lord will defend Israel against her enemies leading them to repentance and renewed focus on Him resulting in .....SALVATION

What else happened during purim?

Mordechai galvanized all the Jews, convincing them to repent, fast and pray to God. Meanwhile, Esther asked the king and Haman to join her for a feast. At the feast, Esther revealed to the king her Jewish identity. Haman was hanged, Mordechai was appointed prime minister in his stead, and a new decree was issued—granting the Jews the right to defend themselves against their enemies.

Can you see the Nexus between the theme, the actors, the tie in to current events, where we stand at this point in history, and how this could play itself out in the very near future?

This time which includes today through the end of March 2012 is absolutely jam packed with potential for the world to turn upside down on its inhabitants in every way imaginable. Does this have potential rapture implications? Yes. Does this have potential tribulation implications? Yes. Am I predicting anything? No. I am watching, not predicting. I just laid out for you what I see from my point of view on the wall.

We have seen many times in the past come and go uneventfully, this could be another one of those meaning we must exercise some caution and detachment from the events around us. We have been called to faith and patience. Eventually, one day the Lord will come back which is why we continue to watch. Could the near future hold such a day? Its possible. It is never probable (on any given day), but it is always possible.

Events in my own life lead me to believe we are close, but still we must be cautious and patient. It would be wise for us to heed what we see on the wall and prepare ourselves right now today to meet our Lord Jesus Christ. I have never seen more signs that He will return soon.

Keep the faith, be ready for His return. Be patient if we must wait.

p.s.- I know the feast of purim is not one of the levitical feast days-it doesn't matter. What matters is what the Lord did for Israel....

M6.8 Quakes- Philippines, 3 of Them....

2012-02-05T22:17:00.003-07:00

3 quakes just rocked the Philippines, two 6.8s and a 6.7. These are 3 quakes just shy of M7 which is a very large earthquake.

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=163072

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=163074

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=163073

Could the pattern be more obvious.. Could the evidence be more clear.. From January into March a very clear pattern of earthquakes increasing in intensity and following a predictable pattern-thats what we are seeing. To say that we have been warned is an understatement.

All is not well with planet earth. Read what happens at the end of Revelation 6 and during Revelation 8. Signs signs are everywhere but who has the eyes to read them?

Let us pray for each other that we will be counted worthy to escape all thats about to happen and stand before our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 More M6+ Quakes Today

2012-02-05T15:02:00.004-07:00

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/

Both are around Vanuatu

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=163024

When you look at this quake map like I have been doing daily, you will notice general changes to what is happening with the quakes. Over the past week or so I have noticed a general strengthening of all the quakes on the map. Not one or two quakes getting stronger, it looks like all of them increasing in intensity.

M6 quakes popping off on a daily basis is not 'business as usual.' These are strong quakes and they are evidence of the approach of some kind of celestial destroyer. We dont have to get hung up on names because what we call this thing does not matter one iota. What matters is the evidence we are seeing all around us for its existence day in and day out.

The Lord told us to look up. Redemption and destruction are coming from that direction....up.

Read the bible for yourselves. How many references do you see for the signs in the heavens, stars, the sun, the moon etc? They are too many to count. While the propaganda press and its masters do their best to distract you, the real show is going on above our heads.

Theres a reason the super rich built a doomsday seed bunker in the cliffs of Norway. There's a reason the powers that be have run the economy into the ground at this point in history. Theres a reason for the mass animal kills, volcano activity, earthquake activity and people in general losing their minds to a great degree everyday.

Every Word written in the Bible is true and what was foretold to happen is happening. The Lord is a refuge from the coming storm. There is an escape available for those found worthy of it. Let us pray for each other, our families and ourselves that we may be counted worthy of the escape from all (luke 21:36) that is most certainly coming. Let us keep the word of the Lord's patience (Rev 3:10).

What we are seeing around us now is not fantasy, it is real tangible evidence that all is not well. The liars and thieves who rule this world cannot bribe the heavens and the earth to prevent what is coming. They cannot hide what is happening. The best they can do is distract you for as long as possible to keep your eyes off what really matters.

The signs of the times tell us to get right and stay right with the Lord Jesus Christ. The signs tell us to do it now, tomorrow may be too late.

Keep the faith, grace and peace

M6 Earthquake-Phillipines

2012-02-04T06:32:00.002-07:00

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=162884

22 minutes ago, a M6 earthquake hit the phillipines. M6 is the reporting threshold for writing here. A M6 earthquake is major and we're having them regularly now. Over the next 30-60 days this brother will be watching for at least one M8-M9 quake that will confirm without a shadow of a doubt that we have an incoming heavenly destroyer.

Assuming that we do see our destructive confirmation we still will not know the date of the rapture. For some reason I believe the Lord has me on high alert through the end of March. The only reason I can put my finger on outside of everything else thats been ongoing for years is this pattern of quakes but even that makes a sketchy 'why.'

What am I doing to prepare for the Lord's return? More bible reading, more prayer. More focus on internal preparation so that I may be perfect for Him when He arrives. I pray that you will do the same. I am as flawed a person as any of you out there. We all should commit to this preparation but not just for 60 days. It feels like we are on the home-run stretch now, least it does to me.

Lets commit together to make pockets of time throughout our day to acknowledge out God and honor Him. The muslims get their prayer rugs out constantly to honor their god, why should our Lord get less worship then the muslim's god? Our Lord deserves the very best that each of us can offer.

I want to encourage you to make a commitment right now to set aside extra time (5-10 min?) as often as you can each day to be alone with the Lord. Thank Him, praise Him, worship Him and ask Him if there is anything else in your life that needs to be cleaned up before He arrives.

We may see 60 days pass uneventfully, or the rapture may occur and the tribulation starts, we just dont know but we can be ready.

grace and peace

The Incoming Destroyer

2012-02-03T12:37:00.007-07:00

They can't understand it....thats what we hear over and over and over again. An example from today's new here:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/feb/03/stranded-dolphins-cape-cod?newsfeed=true

Dolphins are washing themselves up on the beaches of Cape Cod in record numbers. What kind of records numbers? The number of dolphins that have washed themselves up over the first three weeks of January has already surpassed the highest annual total of any year for the past tens years. Why are the dolphins trying to get out of the water?

What's the conclusion we hear at the end of every "business is not usual" story in the news today? Oh, that happens all the time, or thats just something thats no big deal or some other ridiculous 'sweep it under the rug' explanation to put people back to sleep.

Another example? yesterday there was a front page graphic on msn.com of fireballs shooting across the sky in texas. The explanation? That happens all the time, nothing to see here! Problem is their own data torpedoes their conclusions. The animal behavior we are seeing daily now is evidence that a destroyer is at the earth's doorstep. Arctic owls found in Missouri and other places in the US right now? Unexplainable, unprecedented, unheard of...and thats what the experts are saying. Arctic seals being found on docks in Washington state? Same thing, unheard of. Millions of dead fish, dolphins washing themselves up, birds flying into the ground, volcano activity through the roof, earthquake activity escalating again following a pattern of destruction that is quickly cementing itself as proof that this earth is on a collision course with destruction.

With all that said, so what? What's the Christian angle on this? Why is brother D writing about this on one of the Lord's blogs? What does the Word say? Look at the book of Revelation for some of your answers:

Rev 86And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

7The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

Let's start here ^. Hail, and fire mingled with blood, cast upon the earth-burning up 1/3 of the trees and all the green grass. Where does hail come from? The sky, "up", the heavens. From where will something be "cast upon the earth?" You cant cast this stuff upon the earth from ground level, that has to come down....from where? From "up"...above.

Moving right along to the second angel sounding:

8And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; 9And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

A great mountain burning with fire cast into the sea? From where? From "up", from above your head, from the heavens.

Moving along again to the third angel:

10And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; 11And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

A great star fell from where? Ahhhhh from heaven, burning......

And what did Jesus tell us to do when "all these things begin to happen?" What things? The things we are documenting almost daily now in the world around us. What did He tell us to do? LOOK UP. Where is our redemption coming from? UP. Where is destruction coming from? UP. So if you are still wondering why brother D has a tight aim on whats happening above our heads right now, look no farther than the Word of God.

The experts are in constant perplexity today. One weird event after another is smacking this world in the face and the lame-stream media has an unending stable of shills, actors and other people in denial they roll out onto the stage for us, to give us another utterly ridiculous explanation that they hope will assure us that everything is "business as usual."

Watch the animals, they cannot lie to you. They can't be paid off by the powers that be to tell you a tale to put you back to sleep. The animals are screaming at us in their own way....WAKE UP, somethings not right...Seeing those dead dolphins all over the beach hit me hard. People have no idea how narrow the line is between dolphins dead on a beach today and billions of people dead around the world tomorrow. Billions dead? Yea. Do the math:

13And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.16And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them

Current world population according to google is around 6.8 billion. What's 33.33% of 6.8 billion?

If my math is right thats around 2.24 billion people...gone. Yes, my math could be off because before this third is culled, 25% is taken off the top in Revelation 6:

Rev 6:7And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth

So really you'd take one out of 4 people alive today and kill them, then take whats left and kill one out of three of them so the numbers kind of add up don't they?

The warnings are all around us. Now, today is the day of salvation. Today is a day of repentance. Today is a day of grace and mercy. The Lord's ears are still open to the cries of those who will turn back to Him. A day is coming when He will not listen. A day of wrath and vengeance and death and destruction is coming. Read it for yourselves, don't take my word for it.

Todays so called christianity sells the world a cotton candy coated sugar daddy in the sky instead of the Lord God Almighty. They sell a uni-dimensional push over God who only loves and turns a blind to all their secret sins.

Read the Word of the Lord below and tell me if this God is candy coated:

Proverbs 1:24Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;

25But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

27When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

28Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:

29For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

30They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.

31Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

32For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.

33But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

I don't know their God. The God I worship and read about in the bible is MULTI dimensional. How many times have your heard your "pastor" (whatever that is) preach a God to you that will laugh at you in the day of disaster and mock you when what you fear overtakes you? If you are "in Christ" this is not something that applies to you directly but what does apply to us is a lesson teaching us who our God is. He is not the cotton candied sugar daddy in the sky todays babylonian churchianity sells.

We do not want to be on the wrong side of this God, our Lord.

And thats the point of everything being written here these days. The Lord could come back for us today, who knows? We must be watching and ready. The warning signs are everywhere. I have never seen a time like this. The Lord has me on high alert for His return over the next two months or so. Does that mean He will show up? No. Am I predicting the Lord will arrive soon? No. We've been here before. Faith and patience will take us to where we want to go in Christ. Could the Lord call us to the wedding soon? Absolutely. The rapture of the Bride will always be a low probability, high impact event. Every day its a low probability event, yet it is a certain event- we just do not know the day or hour.

I do not know what the destroyer is, but I see the signs of its presence all around us. The Word of the Lord is confirming itself everyday while the world tells you there is nothing to see and everything is business as usual.

Please go (re) read Revelation 8 for yourselves. Compare what you read in Revelation 8 with the events we see unfolding in the world around us every day. Can you see the arm of the Lord already at work? The signs and warnings are already here, we are swimming in them. Because people have become so spiritually dull, they cannot see. The time to wake up and pray for eyes that see is now.

Pray with me, that we may be counted worthy of the escape from all that is coming so we may stand before the Lord without shame. Pray for all the brothers, your family and yourselves daily. Let us be found watching and ready for the return of the Lord when He shows up.

These are the things this writer feels impressed with today. Keep the faith. grace and peace

M7.1 Quake Today

2012-02-02T13:39:00.003-07:00

Welcome to February and we started it out with a bang: 7.1 VERY large quake-Vanuatu (north of NZ and east of Autstralia)

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=162441

We had a 7.3 just a few weeks ago now another 7+. What I would call this is "evidence." Evidence of what? Evidence of an inbound destroyer. What is the destroyer? I don't know, planet x? Nibiru? Black sun? Wormwood? Brown dwarf? Black dwarf? Does it really matter? Really, if whatever it is makes it to our doorstep, and it turns the world into a giant washing machine thats on spin cycle are you really going to care "what" it is? No. People should care about what its doing, that is the effects on the earth, but what we call it matters little.

Before we started the year it was written here that we would be looking for this evidence and its arriving on schedule. This is what we call a repeated pattern which is what we can also call evidence for the arrival of something that will not be pleasant for this world.

Do not take my word for anything, look to the evidence. Read the book of Revelation and see for yourselves the heavenly signs and wonders described there. We were told to look up when all these things begin to happen. The Lord himself told us there would be great signs in the heavens. Todays world is so spiritually dull that they pick up on nothing. It would take a frying pan to the face to get most peoples attention these days.

Remember comet lovejoy? That comet defied every so called fact scientists today thought they knew about comets. what comet dives into the sun and comes out on the other side flying brighter and faster than it did when it went in? Think thats a sign? You bet it is. Are people picking up on it? Not a chance.

These earthquakes are increasing in frequency and intensity. A Magnitude 7 plus earthquake is a major major quake, just ask the people of Haiti what one feels like. If history is any guide, and it appears to be so far, then the biggest quake of this year lies just ahead of us sometime late this month or next month. We'll see what happens.

Whats the point of writing any of this? The signs are all around us, we need to be ready for the Lord's return.

Be Ready For the Lord's Return

2012-02-01T07:40:00.008-07:00

I have had some internal fighting over this and finally gave in. We know that the Lord can come back for us at any time. That means any day. There are no special days, no feast days etc over the next 30-60 days however I am increasing my personal level of readiness for the Lord's return.

You have seen it written here that we must be patient and have great endurance to wait another 30 years or more if need be. It has also been written here that we must be watching and ready daily for the Lord's return any day now. It is written here because these things are written clearly in the Word of our Lord. This "be ready to wait forever and be ready to leave today" task we have been given is difficult, no doubt but it is what we must do.

That brings us to right now. I do not know times and dates. The Lord has not revealed to me a day of His return however my insides have been in turmoil over not saying anything and resisting this "push" or whatever else we might want to call this internal pressure within me to get ready right now for the Lord's return. As a watchman, I have now seen enough to spark action on my part. What action? We know we should be ready every day so what else are you going to do brother D? I'm going to step up my preparedness and watchfulness over this month and next month (60 days).

We have been tracking earthquakes here and sometime over the next 60 days, I expect (if there is an incoming destroyer) to see one or more massive quakes. I don't know if there is a destroyer inbound for sure yet but the evidence sure does seem to point in that direction so far. Not only that, but looking at the spiritual condition of the world, the removal of restraint (9/11 , NDAA bill passed, etc) , the weird weather )mid-60's today along mid-atlantic U.S.), some personal things the Lord has done to help prepare myself for His arrival that surprised me, massive animal deaths, wars and rumors of wars, weird animal migration patterns, it appears to me that we have hit a new threshold of business is not anywhere close to usual anymore.

I have been resisting writing this post and embracing this idea and I have felt miserable. Now that I am writing this and embracing this idea I feel a release of internal pressure. What idea? Over the next 60 days, step up your watching and readiness. Am I predicting the Lord's return? No, no and no again. Could He indeed return any day now? Yes, yes and yes again. So why increase our watchfulness and readiness right now?

If you look up at the sky and see storm clouds moving your way, would it be wise for you to have your umbrella and rain gear ready? Yes. No difference there from what we are doing here, storm clouds are moving in so what should we do?

What is increased readiness for me? Make an extra effort to do the things I already know I should be doing. Specifically I will make more time for prayer and bible reading. We "watch" through prayer and our readiness comes from the Word of God (gospel of peace Eph 6). So to be watching and ready means we are constantly in prayer and reading our bibles. Its that simple.

Now, as we are praying and staying in the Word if we sense the Lords instruction for us to clean up and area of our lives, we need to get on it immediately. We need to be found doing those things wise servants and wise virgins (Matt 25) do. The Lord has been highlighting Matt 24 and Matt 25 to me for a long time now.

Three places stand out to me in the Bible today (Luke 17, Luke 21, and Matt 25). If you want to know where we are at in time today, read those chapters and think deeply about them.

Pray without ceasing, stay in the Word of God. Obey the command the Master gave us to pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all thats about to happen and stand before Him. Pray also for all the brothers and your family.

Now I have it off my chest. I am not predicting anything, but I am preparing for a time that at least from outward appearances seems to have trouble and opportunity written all over it. If the next 60 days passes business as usual then great, we continue to wait patiently. Great patience and endurance will never fail us.

grace and peace

M6.3 Quake

2012-01-30T15:51:00.003-07:00

Well, we made it exactly 7 days between major quakes. Today we had a M6.3 in central Peru:

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=161702

The only reason I am writing today is to post this. I have been asking the Lord for updates and so far I am in a holding pattern. While we wait on the Lord we know what to do: Watch and be ready for His return.

M6.2 Earthquake Just Offshore Bio-Bio Chile, UPDATE:Second Quake M6.3 South of Fiji-Same Day

2012-01-23T14:24:00.011-07:00

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=160260

(UPDATE: No sooner had I finished this post when a second quake M6.3 struck south of the Fiji Islands-its getting unreal guys...)

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=160465

Notice with me that we are seeing these large earthquakes almost daily now. A 6.0 is a large quake. I have been watching the earthquake activity around Chile ratchet up over the past few weeks. Today we have a 6.2 right on their doorstep. A trip down memory lane shows us that on 2/27/2010, chile had their 8.8 that shifted the earths axis by a few inches. February is next month and the activity is on the uptick in the same place (Chile) again. Will they get another earth axis shifting quake this year? Time will tell.

Why write about this here? Because the earth is changing in ways that spell bad things for humanity. This writer believes there is a destroyer inbound to the earth. What is it? Who knows? Do we need to label it? Not really, I call it the destroyer, call it whatever you want but what we call it does not change the fact that it is inbound and the evidence is stacking up all around us. What evidence? How about a pattern of earthquakes that has been demonstrating itself for years now. We are now watching these quakes play themselves out again during the months of January through March of this year.

Its a pattern, and it repeats itself which is proof that business is not usual on earth these days. Speaking of business not usual, we can cite temperatures this week in the mid-50's during the heart of winter across the mid-atlantic region of the US, and we can cite tornadoes this week ripping across the deep south in the US which usually starts in the spring/early summer-not in the middle of winter, we can point to the dead birds for year, dead fish by the millions for years, the list goes on.

Again, why write this here? If a destroyer is inbound to the earth then millions if not billions of people could be face to face with their Creator soon. The rapture is one way to meet Him, dieing out is another way. Bottom line? We would be wise to be ready to face the changing circumstances around us by getting ready to meet the Creator. The Lord could come back for us any moment now.

I'm not sure if you have seen the reports on youtube of people hearing strange sounds all around the world over the past weeks. I have thought about this before saying anything here. My conclusion is that events are moving along rapidly and the enemy is going to attempt to counterfeit everything. Deception is going to be (already is) rampant. When the enemy seeks to hide real end time signals among fake signals what are we to do? Take all the end time signals seriously. The presence of the counterfeit is evidence of the real thing somewhere in our environment.

I've listened to the sounds and one word fits them: alien. There are many different explanations for where they come from, what the source is etc. We don't need to know. In my opinion the sounds are one more piece of data to plug into the "business is not usual" picture that is framing itself all around us.

History has proven to me that we need to heed the Lord's Word to be patient. The events taking place around us seem to scream "time is up" but we would be wise not to be hasty. We must be ready for the Lord to arrive immediately, but we must also have great endurance and patience to wait for Him for another 30 years if thats what it takes. My mind cannot even register the Lord delaying that long but He has delayed up through today and I thought He would have come back years ago. The lesson? Don't be hasty in our thoughts.

A part of me on the inside right now seems to be pointing toward something huge going down in the near term future. I cant nail it down. I am expecting the large earthquakes based on the yearly pattern but I'm talking something else. Are we about to see the great deception take place? Is the removal of restraint gradually taking place before our eyes? Is the last act of the removal of restraint the catching away of the true believers in Christ Jesus?

Conclusion

Be watching and ready for the Master to arrive for us. Be watching and ready to see all the things the bible said would happen, happen before our eyes. It feels like something very big is about to take place. The stage has been set for something big to occur. All that remains now is for the curtain to be raised so the show can begin.

The Lord our God is a fortress and a tower and a strong rock. He is a hiding place from the storm. Days like today make me want to beat down the door to get inside the hiding place because what I see outside is so ominous. I have lived a life "in Christ" with varying degrees of success along the way and I can tell you that "in Christ" is the only place of safety anyone in this world has today. Everything else is an illusion. I pray for you, my family and myself that we may be counted worthy to escape all thats about to happen.

M6 Earthquake-South Sandwich Island Region

2012-01-22T18:18:00.002-07:00

Another one guys. I'm only tracking 6.0 and larger and these things are coming in regularly now.

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=160139

Matt 24:4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9Then 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. 10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

I believe between verse 8 and verse 9 we see the tribulation starting. Evidence? Look at all the things listed in verses 5-8. All those things are happening now. We have not yet seen verse 9 fleshed out in its fullness but we can see it blossoming. It feels like we are close but we could be years away. I don't know. The only wise course of action is to be ready to meet the Lord each and every day.

6.3 Magnitude Earthquake off the coast of Mexico

2012-01-21T16:09:00.002-07:00

Another large quake. I wonder what we'll see next month and in March. If the pattern is true we will see quakes next month that are as large or larger than what we saw last year. I am watching with you. I have been asking the Lord for a word about current events. I believe He has been speaking to me but I can't quite unwind all the information enough to give it to you short and sweet.

Today what stuck with me from the Word is from Psalm 37. Rest in the Lord and wait for Him patiently. He could come back for us tonight or 30 years from now.

More Proof (in Jude) For the Pre-tribulation Rapture of the Church

2012-01-15T07:36:00.011-07:00

Well, as if we did not have enough evidence already of the incoming destroyer, heres more:

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=158976

This one happened less than an hour ago and was again, just shy of a 7 magnitude earthquake. Update-there have now been 3 large quakes in this same location-a 6.2 a 6.7 and a 6.5. Three quakes not one...

These are strong earthquakes in diverse places that are almost on top of each other on the calendar. To refresh our memory here are the other major earthquakes we have seen over the past 2 weeks:

south shetland islands 6.7- 1/15/2012

northern sumatra 7.3- 1/10/2012

Santa Cruz Islands 6.6- 1/9/2012

izu islands Japan 6.8- 1/1/2012

As a frame of reference for how strong these quakes are, the level 5 quake that occured in Virginia this past year was felt all the way up into parts of New Jersey. If a level 5 in Virginia rattled houses in New Jersey, and earthquakes on the richter scale increase by a magnitude of 10 as they go from 5 to 6 to 7 etc. Then just how strong is a 6.8 earthquake? It is very powerful. Once again this quake took place in a remote region of the world where it can be easily looked over.

You can be sure that the news media will not be tracking these large quakes for you or ringing the warning bell. The media and their masters want you asleep.

I was hoping I could get a post out without another earthquake but it didn't work out that way this time. If a destroyer is inbound to the earth, so is redemption. Thats why earthquake posts are on this blog. We are to be watching and ready for the Lord's return. Are earthquakes a sign? Yes, they are specifically listed as part of the beginning of sorrows which lead into the tribulation/time of Jacob's trouble.

The evidence is clear, spirals in the sky, dead animals all over the earth, increased volcanic activity, a multi-year pattern of earthquakes, it paints a clear picture for me. "So what?" you ask.

So..we have increasing amounts of evidence around us that our redemption draws nigh. We were told to look up when all these things begin to happen. We were promised an escape from all in Luke 21:36. We were told the days of Noah and Lot would be just like the next time the Lord returns. Noah and Lot were both rescued bodily from the judgements of their day.

This brings me to another piece of evidence that supports the pre-tribulation rapture of the church. We find it in Jude:

Jude 1 5I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. (this ties into the rapture in a the way that it is a rebuttal of the doctrine of devils once saved always saved doctrine. He saved the people from egypt, then destroyed them for lack of belief later. That does not sound "always saved" to me.

From the perspective of the rapture, those who believe in the OSAS lie, are in jeopardy of not making it up in the rapture. If we want to be saved we must remain "in Christ." Examples are everywhere in the bible. I just showed one to you, another one can be found in John 15. We must remain "in Him." In Christ all the promises apply to us. If we are cut off (John 15) from Christ, we are no longer "in Him" and what the Lord did for all men no longer applies to us. All men do not get credit for the shed blood of Christ, otherwise all men would end up in heaven. If all men ended up in heaven then Matt 7:13-14 would be an error because all men would be saved not few.

This is getting too long, so to keep it short we must be found worthy of the escape when it presents itself. Re-read luke 21:36 for yourselves. We are saved by grace through faith. If we no longer have faith that equation is broken. If we no longer believe, then what is written here in Jude 1 applies which means destruction. If we love Him we will obey His commands. We must be watching and ready.

Next up in Jude that directly supports the pre-trib rapture:

14And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints

and

21Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life

When the Lord comes back in judgement He is coming back with His saints. Thats us. How can we come back with Him if when He arrives we haven't been raptured yet? This has another tie in that directly conflicts with the post-trib and pre-wrath doctrines that the rapture occurs when the angels "gather the elect from the four winds , from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven. If we are to come back with the Lord and we have already been in heaven for years before the Lord comes back in judgement, we will need to be gathered (not raptured-that already happened) together to form the armies of heaven.

We have now seen in Jude 2 points and we will make the 3rd soon. 1. The Lord saved His people then destroyed them for disbelief later-make a note of that. The Lord does not change, if He did it then He'll do it again and before anyone says that was in the old testament under the old laws note that you are reminded of it by the Holy Spirit in the new testament under the new covenant. Dismiss this at your own peril.

2. The Lord is coming back with His saints who have been raptured, in heaven for 7 years and regathered from heaven and earth to form the armies of heaven that return with the Lord to judge the earth

And last point number 3. that wraps points 1 and 2 up in perfect harmony 21Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life

This one struck me yesterday as I was reading the Word. Keep yourselves "in the love of God." In the love of God is where? "In Christ." Ok we have already been through that but what about this " looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life"

Now I would like you to carefully consider that statement our Lord made to us. Today many people are looking for all kinds of different things. Specifically the pre-wrath (who are not really pre-wrath) and post-trib believers are looking for everything and anything BUT mercy from the Lord. Consider what these "other tribbers" are teaching and preaching today. If you wrap up all their teaching and doctrine it amounts to a complete anti-thesis, a polar opposite of "looking for mercy."

We the pre-tribulation rapture believers are looking for a merciful escape. We do this not because of our own imaginations, but because of what the Lord has commanded and written to us. Luke 21:36 commands us to pray for escape. Many refuse to do this which will likely result in terrible consequences for them and their families. Jude 1 tells us to "look for mercy" and keep ourselves "in the love of God."

Bottom line? We are looking for mercy and an escape. Does this fit with a pre-tribulation, pre-time of Jacob's trouble rapture? You bet it does. Does this also refute and rebuke the doctrines of the "pre-wrath" and "post-tribulation" teachers. Yes, it puts another hole in their doctrine which by now is so full of holes it makes swiss cheese look like an impenetrable wall.

Read the Word for yourselves and do the analysis of what the Lord has told us. We are looking for a blessed hope-that comforts us (1 Thess 4:18). We are looking for mercy (1 Jude 21). We are looking for an escape from all (Luke 21:36) thats about to happen. Noah found escape mercy and comfort in the Ark. Lot found escape mercy and comfort outside the destruction of Sodom. As it was then it will be again (Mark 13, Luke 17, Matt 24).

Put the words together: comfort, mercy, escape....

There are two sides to this equation. Comfort mercy and escape for some, destruction for others. Where will we be found in this equation. The scoffers and naysayers tell us there is no escape but they only prophesy their own destruction. They preach to themselves and their own words will testify against them. Be very careful what you believe because you receive as you believe. According to your faith it will be done unto you:

Matthew 8:13

Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! It will be done just as you believed it would." And his servant was healed at that very hour.

What are you looking for today? Escape? Comfort? Mercy? I pray that you are looking for these things. Luke 11:9
9And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 10For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened

These are the things this writer's spirit is impressed with today.

Major Earthquake 7.3 Just Now

2012-01-10T13:48:00.003-07:00

Guys, need more evidence? 7.3 just hit off the coast of northern sumatra

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/map_detail.php?id=158002

Are you awake yet? I pray that you are. Are you keeping track of the evidence staring this world in the face? I hope that you are. Lets go over the events of the past 10 days:

New Years day 2012: 6.8 izu islands Japan

Yesterday, 1/9/2012: 6.6 Santa Cruz Islands

Today, 1/10/2012: 7.3 off the coast of sumatra

This is over the span of 10 days, not 10 months, not 10 years, 10 DAYS.

Let me also remind you if you have not seen it already this is a multi-year pattern. What happened on 1/12/2012? a 7.0 leveled the island of Haiti. We haven't even reached that day yet and already we've had 3 large quakes that rival what happened in Haiti.

Is there a pattern? Yes. Do we have evidence for it? Beyond a shadow of a doubt. Based on this pattern are large earthquakes, larger that what we have seen so far likely in the near future? Yes.

The historical pattern is spot on. January, February, March with large earthquakes, dead birds and fish, and increased volcanic activity.

Now that we are in January we are on the Leo constellation side of the sun. We will remain on this side through June, but the record of evidence points to the first half of that (Jan-March) for these large quakes.

What did Jesus tell us to do when all these things begin to happen? Look up. What do you see when you look up? The heavens. What is coming from the heavens? Our redemption and the destruction of the earth. Proof? Where will we meet the Lord? In the clouds. Where do these large objects that strike the earth (like wormwood) come from? The sky, the heavens.

When The Lord tells us to do something He tells us for a reason. This writer is looking up. What is happening up there? Destruction and deliverance are on their way. Months ago it was written here that I would be watching these months closely for evidence to backup the idea that a repeatable pattern had been formed which supports the theory of an inbound large object like Nibiru, Planet X, a brown dwarf star etc. We are now in January and what are we seeing? The exact evidence I was looking for to support this theory.

Its not even mid-month and we already have 3 large quakes. today was a 7.3, a VERY large quake. What this tells me is there is a destroyer heading toward the earth that will play a part in the exact fulfillment of what was written by the prophets and John the revelator by the power of the Holy Spirit thousands of years ago. The proof is quickly becoming overwhelming.

What does this mean?

If a destroyer is inbound then time is shorter than many people think. If a destroyer is inbound than deliverance is inbound as well. Can we predict a day and hour? No. Is this writer predicting anything? No. What this writer is doing is following the outlines of a pattern seen by following the command to "look up." The pattern points to large earthquakes being likely in February and March as well as possibly the balance of this month. Follow the pattern.

A watchman stands on a wall and warns the people of danger that might be coming. I do not know what I am except the least of the servants of the Most High God, but I can tell you that I am trying to obey the commands given to us and what I see in the process of obeying is danger coming to the people. If the people do not listen then their blood is on their own hands:

EZ 33:1Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: 3If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; 4Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. 5He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. 6But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.

So far, mercifully these large quakes have been in unpopulated areas with no tsunamis. What happens when one of these 7.0 or larger quakes hits directly under the city you live in? I pray this does not happen, but it is worthy of consideration.

A destroyer inbound to the earth causing very large earthquakes, animal deaths. volcanic eruptions all over the earth etc is a problem. This problem is way too big for man to deal with. This problem has its solution in the Lord Jesus Christ. What can a man do when the problems facing him can in no way be solved by himself of other men? He can look to his God for assistance.

The writing here in its entirety seeks to point those with ears to hear and eyes to see, to look to their Creator. The Lord is coming back to this earth. He is bringing reward and judgement with Him. Do not take my word for anything, it is worthless. Open you bible and see for yourselves what the Lord God said would happen. What He said would happen is happening even now.

Today is a day of grace. Men can return to the Lord today in the day of His favor and find redemption for themselves and their families. The day is coming however when the Lord will shut the door and men will find fierce vengeance and wrath on a scale unimaginable. It appears that the days of grace are coming to a close. How much time do we have left? Only the Lord knows but it appears that time is running out for most people.

The writing you see today is a warning to me and a warning to you. Look up, and pray that you may be counted worthy to escape all thats about to happen and stand before the Son of Man. An escape was promised and an escape will be provided. Noah escaped the flood. Lot escaped the fire and brimstone, we too will escape if we are found worthy.

Stay in the Word of God and pray. Do this with patience as wise virgins. That is what the Word tells us to do. We may have years left or just hours before the Lord arrives for us. This calls for patience, watchfulness and readiness. Let us be found doing those things the Master told us to do so when He arrives we will not be ashamed in His presence.

Keep the faith, grace and peace

Emergency landing as two BA pilots 'nearly pass out'

2012-01-09T12:52:00.008-07:00

http://www.tntmagazine.com/news/travel/emergency-landing-as-two-ba-pilots-nearly-pass-out

I believe this article points to another piece of the puzzle that I have not yet been able to put my finger on. The symptoms those pilots experienced, are things I routinely experience to a lesser degree. It's not only me, but many others around me who are indicating that they feel this same way almost daily now...that is-not well.

Since Jan 3 of this year, I have been feeling physically the way those pilots did. It's as if something were turned on, I don't know. It's not a sick feeling, but it is certainly a "I don't feel well or right" feeling.

Most people refuse to admit or even talk about this kind of thing. Nobody in today's world wants to admit any hint of weakness. I will admit to you, something is not right and I feel it physically. I know what sick feels like and this is not it. Its something else. Its almost as if someone has turned on an electro-magnet right beside my head. Kind of like that.

Although this could be some kind of man made issue, I dont think it is. Evidence? New Years 2012 greeted us with thousands upon thousands of birds flying into walls and streets etc. This isnt new, review the news articles from last year. Whatever those animals were feeling, we're getting some of it too. I believe that whatever this things is coming at us is pushing something our way that is causing people like these pilots, and myself to feel these symptoms.

Bottom line-this is another sign of impeding drastic change that is likely not going to be pleasant. Why write this here? Because the solution is what it always has been. Commit everything to the Lord and allow Him to sort it out. I don't know whats causing all the mass animal deaths, but the Lord does. I'm not sure what's coming at us in space, but the Lord does. I don't know when the time of Jacob's trouble will start, but the Lord does. I don't know when the escape from all will happen, but the Lord does.

I have had one solution for every problem in my life, bring in my God to help me. That has worked for decades, it will continue to work in the future. "What" I'm asking for is in my court, that is, I get to ask for what I need. How and when the answer comes, and in what form it comes is the Lord's.

I believe that the Lord has told me to hang on an be patient as people are losing control in this world. I believe He has told me the end is near and we just have to hang on and be patient. I believe whatever this is we are feeling, this "not good" but not sick really feeling is something people will have to deal with throughout the tribulation and we are getting a preview of it now. This not well feeling will make it very difficult for anyone to find relief/pleasantness of mind anywhere at any time and thats part of the plan.

Imagine what it would be like to live like you had the flu for 7 years. Not much makes you feel good except sleep and even that will be difficult to find.

The challenges that will be present during the time of tribulation are showing up now. I do not think it is possible even with the Word in Revelation for us to wrap our minds around how bad things are about to get. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God.

All this brings me to the solution that I believe we have before us. Draw closer to our ark of safety which is Jesus Christ. After Noah built the ark you can bet he didn't take any road trips with the family. He stayed planted within arms reach of that ark at all times. So it is with us. All around us it appears to be raining events that point to an imminent flood. This time it wont be a flood of water, it will be a flood of events described in Revelation 6.

Stay in the Word, and pray. Be patient. The same Lord who has provided for us up through this very day will continue to do so in these trying days ahead. These are the thoughts this writer is impressed with today.

Another LARGE Earthquake-Santa Cruz Islands

2012-01-09T07:14:00.002-07:00

http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/world/2012-01/09/content_14406536.htm

A large 6.6 on the richter scale hit the santa cruz islands this morning. Now we have two quakes within an 8 day period that were at or around 7.0. The new years day 2012 quake was reported some places as a 7.0, others reported a 6.8.

If we do not have another quake this month we will have already met the threshold I was looking for to prove that we are indeed looking at a multi-year repetitive pattern of strong earthquakes on this side of the sun which then tells me that whatever is coming at us is not a figment of my imagination.

As a reminder, the quake that leveled Haiti in 2012 occurred on January 12. Here we are on the 9th with a quake that is very very close to the same strength, and just 3 days away on the calendar.

As time moves forward through to March, the quakes get stronger. Don't take my word for it, check the facts. 2/27/2010, what happened? An 8.8 earthquake in Chile that shifted the earth's axis. On 3/11/2011, what happened? a 9.0 monster in Japan that shifted the earth's axis.

We've already had 2 strong quakes this month and we have only reached the second week of the month. Are you getting this? As a point of reference, there was no mention on the front page of any of the lame stream news outlets for this powerful quake today. They don't want you to know. The media wants you to go back to sleep with more irrelevant news about who is going to be (s)elected (by them) as El Presidente or how beyonce's baby is doing etc, you know, worthless information.

2 powerful quakes in 8 days. We can only wonder how the rest of January, February and March will shape up. What's the point? Why write these things here? If a destroyer is inbound to the earth then a countdown clock is ticking for many people's days here. What does that mean? It means people need to figure out a solution to the problem facing them, namely imminent destruction. The solution has a name and that name is Jesus Christ. The Lord has offered an escape to the righteous. Don't believe me, re-read 2 Peter 2. The Lord knows how to deliver the righteous and not just with a "spiritual deliverance." Noah was saved with a physical deliverance, Lot was saved with a physical deliverance, and we will be delivered the same way if we are found worthy.

The Lord's deliverance for some will be physical and spiritual. Just exactly as it was in the days of Noah and Lot, so it will be again. Go read it for yourselves in Mark 13, Luke 17 or Matt 24. Read what the Lord told is in Luke 21....pray that you may be counted worthy to escape ALL of whats about to happen. Escape how much? All. I am often amused and dismayed at many peoples lack of grasp of the english language. What does all mean? It means all, not part of, not some of, not 3/4, not most of, it means all or 100%, or everything. How much of the flood did Noah escape? All of it. How much of the raining fire did Lot escape? All of it.

These strong quakes which we are observing with a definite pattern tell us that a destroyer is inbound and we would do well to prepare for it. The Lord told Noah that destruction was coming. The Lord sent angels to tell Lot that destruction was coming. The Lord guided both men to their deliverance. In our day the Lord has provided the same guidance. What did He tell us we should be doing? We should be watching and ready for His return. Why? The ark was a type of HIM. He is our ark, He is our safety, He is our physical and spiritual deliverance....He calls Himself "I AM" for a reason. Everything we need we find in Him.

There is a solution today for the monumental problems facing this world and those who have eyes to see and ears to hear know what that solution is: Jesus Christ the Son of God. Anger, wrath and judgement are coming. The time for mankind to exalt himself is almost at an end. The day is coming soon when the Lord God alone will be exalted. He will be known for what He is, God Almighty. Every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

We know what's coming guys. We have objective evidence that something very very bad is coming to this world's neighborhood soon. What does soon mean? I don't know but the way these quakes are stacking themselves up in the calendar I would say buckle your seatbelts now. How many more 7.0 or so quakes do we have left between now and March? The Lord knows.

Our job is to be watching and ready for the return of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. We are to do this watching through prayer (Matt 26, Mark 14, Luke 21, 1 Peter 4:7) with patience (wise virgins Matt 25). We are to be ready through the Word of God which is the gospel of peace (Eph 6). Let us be found doing what we were told to do so when He returns we will not be ashamed in His presence.

More Evidence

2012-01-07T08:33:00.002-07:00

This week has set records across the country for high temperatures. Winter with no winter is a sign and another piece of evidence for the approaching destroyer. Combine this with mass bird deaths over a period of years forming a pattern. Combine this with a pattern of earthquakes and volcano eruptions. What you have is solid evidence, a pattern that cannot be ignored that everything is not business as usual.

Next week we will be in the zone for what I expect to be another 7.0 or stronger quake somewhere in the world. Why? The pattern. Strong January quakes have been all over-haiti, argentina, izu island Japan so who knows where, but we can expect a season to determine when.

January has seen strong quakes. February has seen stronger quakes and March as we all know has been the mother of monsters (Japan 9.0).

Everything is not business as usual and everything is not "all right" but thats all right as long as we have our focus right. Who and what is the focus? Jesus Christ the Son of God.

These changing weather patterns affect everything to include food supply. No food means famine for a growing population of the earth and higher prices for everyone else. So what?

So, the Lord has promised us many things. Go read Psalm 37 and see what the Lord has to say about those who belong to Him and famine. What we are seeing, and what this writer is pointing out to you should get your attention and point it toward the Lord Jesus Christ.

If a destroyer is inbound, what can the people of the world do about it? The can call on the only true God for help. Can the Lord provide food, protection, escape, deliverance etc?
You bet He can. People who dismiss such things basically flush their lives and the lives of their families down the drain. What a waste and how terrible.

This writer knows where his help comes from----> The Lord Jesus Christ. This writer is attempting to point you to the solution to the problems that are mounting for this world. Worldly solutions to spiritual problems will NEVER WORK. Its time for people to let that sink in. It doesnt matter who is s-elected president next, it doesnt matter what kind of economic fix is proposed, it doesnt matter who the leader or who the follower is until this world fixes its problem with rebellion and sin.

Don't take my word for it, look around you. Are things getting better or is this world and everything in it spinning out of control? You be the judge. Hiding the head in a hole in the ground will not work much longer for the masses of humanity. The ground itself is shaking ever more violently month after month and year after year. It is no longer a refuge for the blind and willfully deceived. The ground and everything else with it is shaking to get the attention of all who live on the face of the earth.

What will men do when the ground they walk on is no longer stable? What can men do when the very foundations of their existence are shaken? I think you know the answer, and His name is Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

Get ready, if history is a guide then we can expect somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 VERY large quakes over the Jan-March time frame. This is not a prediction on my part, it is an observation of historical pattern which is itself a fact.

The purpose of this writing is not to point to the destroyer or the coming earth destruction. The purpose is to get your attention firmly fixed on THE ANSWER to the problem which is Jesus Christ. The Lord is our answer, its very simple. When grace doesnt work to get the worlds attention, out comes the hammer. Again, read the Lord's own Word for what He told us is going to happen. If the Lord said it, you can count on it. We were told to be watching for His return and ready for it. We were told to do this with great patience and perseverance like the wise virgins of Matt 25. Let us be found doing these things we were told to do so when the Master arrives we will not be ashamed in His presence.

All glory and honor and power be His forever and ever, amen. grace and peace

More Evidence of the Approach of the Destroyer

2012-01-02T10:10:00.004-07:00

http://www.komverse.com/2011/01/05/millions-of-dead-fish-wash-up-on-shores-around-the-world-maryland-brazil-new-zealand/

Thousands upon thousands of dead animals, fish and birds especially are dieing once again all around the world. The excuses used by the 'experts' last time were ridiculous, this time around they are even more ridiculous because now we have a repetitive pattern. Just like the earthquake activity, the animal death activity we are seeing has formed a repetitive pattern.

Not only do we have increased earthquakes and animal deaths, we also have increased volcanic activity. For every one volcano we see, there are many more under water that we do not.

This is another piece of evidence that something like the flood of Noah's day is approaching the earth. It won't be a flood this time, the Lord promised the world will not see that same destruction again, but all the other destruction detailed in the book of Revelation is on the way.

When we see the destruction on a scale unimaginable approaching what should we do about it? The bible told us this was coming. Read the words of the prophets and the book of Revelation, what do you see? Wrath, judgement and punishment for the sins of man...that is whats coming. Should the righteous fear this destruction? Ask Noah, ask Lot. Noah was spared and so was Lot. The punishment meant for the wicked did not touch them.

2 Peter 2 tells us that the Lord knows how to deliver the righteous. This writer knows from first hand experience that the Lord knows how to deliver us. The life of this writer has been one deliverance after another, one blessing after another. Hard times and tough experiences have been throughout but just as we read in Psalm 34, I have been delivered from all my fears. To the Lord alone be the glory for His precious promises.

If a destroyer is coming, so is a deliverance. Luke 21:36 tells us clearly that there is an escape from all and we should pray for it. Only a fool would disregard this command.

We started off the year with a very large earthquake near Japan and with thousands upon thousands of animals dieing all around the world...WAKE UP, and don't let the deceivers put you back to sleep. These words are written to you today not for fear, but to point your attention to faith in the only salvation and deliverance man can hope for in the dark age-that is faith in Jesus Christ the Son of God, to Him be the glory and the power and the honor and the splendor and the riches forever and ever, amen.

Keep the faith, grace and peace

Amazing....2012 Begins With Powerful Quake

2012-01-01T08:50:00.004-07:00

The first day of 2011 started with a 7.0 in Argentina, and almost at the strike of midnight bringing in 2012 there was a 6.8 earthquake in the Izu island region near Japan. We started 2012 with a very large earthquake.

http://www.asianscientist.com/topnews/january-1-2012-japan-magnitude-6-8-earthquake-izu-islands/

These are powerful earthquakes.

These earthquakes have formed a pattern, and that pattern has led this writer to believe that a destroyer is inbound to the earth. If that is true-and we'll need to see what happens over the next few months-then we'll know with enough certainty that at least I will be convinced that there is precious little time left.

This year we need to remember that right up until the day we step inside our "ark", we need to be patient. One of the weapons being used against us is to get people so agitated and excited that eventually their bubble of enthusiasm bursts and they walk away like the foolish virgins did.

We must be watching and ready for our Lord to return AND we must must must be patient enough to wait for years in the future should He decide to tarry. Remember the Lord's Word to us in Rev 3.....10Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth

We must must must keep the word of His patience.

We are walking a difficult road here. It is a narrow path which is why many find it hard to follow. We must have enduring patience while we are perfectly ready to leave today. We must be ready for both. For years and years now we have been on the path of patience. The Lord has not spoken to me of a date, nor to my knowledge has He spoken to anyone of a date for His return. Therefore we must continue on this path of patience while we maintain our readiness through the Word of God and we watch through prayer.

If the quake patterns intensify this year around the March and Sept alignment dates with this object, we'll know. Setting days is not important, the Lord Himself taught us to observe seasons....

Whats the point of all this? We may have an indicator that a clock is ticking down to the time of Jacob's trouble now. If a destroyer is inbound, so is redemption inbound. Noah went into an ark when the flood arrived. Lot went out of Sodom so the fire could arrive, so it will be in our day.

I encourage you to open your bibles every day this year. I encourage you to seek the Lord's face every day this year. Confess your sins to Him and repent of those things the Spirit convicts you of. The Spirit of God always always ALWAYS points to Jesus. When you see the Lord's Spirit in operation you can be sure there is an arrow in that operation pointing straight to the Son of God. So it is here.

The purpose behind the writing here is to place your focus squarely on Jesus Christ. Get rid of the things that hinder your walk with Him, and approach Him daily in the Word and in prayer. This is our primary duty. There is nothing else you are "doing for God" that takes priority over the 1 on 1 time with Him, nothing...He has made that clear to me, now I pass that on to you.

Be watching and ready. The entire "mayan" thing in 2012 is probably another fraud but these quakes are real, as is the pattern they have formed. We are watching for the return of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. All these things happening around us appear to signal that His approach is near. Even so, we must maintain infinite patience to wait in peace so we do not fall into the trap of the foolish virgins.

Be watching and ready for what may shape up to be a very interesting year. grace and peace

Ready for 2012

2011-12-31T07:02:00.013-07:00

And so our 2012 quake watch begins. It actually started this month with a number of 6.0 quakes in various places-Mexico, American Somoa, and Siberia.

This writer believes something is coming at us in space and it has a visible footprint on this world in the form of earthquakes. What does the Word of God say? Earthquakes in diverse places right? To set the stage for what we may have ahead of us consider this: This year of 2011 started on new years day 2011 with a 7.0 quake in Argentina. Nice present for the new year huh?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/01/argentina-earthquake-buenos-aires_n_803160.html

That new years day quake was followed by 6.0+ quakes in Jan-Feb in the sea near Japan, the Phillipines, off the coast of chile and Christchurch NZ, then all hell broke loose in March 11 in Japan with a 9.0.

When you look at the data there is an obvious uptick in more powerful quakes all around the world before the 3/11 Japan quake. In fact, the rash of 6.0+ quakes we have seen this very month looks eerily similar to the pattern before the 9.0 Japan monster quake.

Who knows, maybe the months of January-April will be quiet months in 2012, but they haven't been these past couple years. We have seen major earthquake activity in these months over the past couple years that forms what has so far been a reliable pattern.

"So what" you ask? So it is possible that a destroyer is inbound to the earth. As it was in the days of Noah, most people are oblivious, they could care less. Most are too concerned with the mundane things of this earth, but what did our Lord tell us? We were told to be watching and ready for His return. He told us clearly in Mark 13, Luke 17, and Matt 24 that His coming will be exactly like it was in the days of Noah and Lot.

In the days of Noah and Lot the world was about its business and they were completely surprised by the destruction that overwhelmed them on the day it arrived. The Lord had other plans for his servants Noah and Lot. They were both spared from the destruction of their day. In 2 Peter 2 we are told clearly that the Lord knows how to deliver the righteous while keeping the wicked under punishment until the day of their destruction. Over and over again the Lord has delivered His people. We have the examples of Noah and Lot given to us by the Lord Himself as something we should look forward to.

Unfortunately today we live in an age of scoffers. We should expect scoffing and disbelief from the heathen but from those who call themselves Christians? What will be the end of those people who have been given precious promises and yet they scoff at them? As we believe so we receive, I didn't say that, Jesus did (Mt 8:13).

Unfortunately the scoffers and others who teach what is contrary to the plain reading of the Word will probably pay a terrible price for their actions. I pray that the Lord will have mercy on them and not count against them their false teachings. The punishments coming to this earth are frightful and I would not wish them on anybody. As an act of my will, I would not have a single man go through the horrors of the tribulation. I do not desire the day of destruction. But I am a man, weak and short lived, of what account am I? The Lord has days in mind that do not take into account what I or other men would do for mankind. There are days of wrath and judgement ahead that stagger the mind.

Today though is a day of mercy. These are the days of mercy and grace. Today we can mend our ways, we can turn away from our sins. Why repent and be found at peace with the Lord today? Because the Lord clearly promised an escape from all to some who will be found worthy of it (Luke 21:36). Noah escaped all of the flood. Lot escaped all the fire and brimstone. Some of us will escape all that is about to happen as well.

Seeing is not believing. Believing is seeing. What we have faith for is what ends up in our life. It is because of this that so many people professing to be Christians dispute about so many things. We do not all have the same level of faith. We do not all have the same history with the Lord. for those of us who have seen miracle after miracle and provision after provision, we have a certain testimony and certain expectations of the Lord. We see His Word in light of what He said, and what He has already done for us personally. This testimony does not make me special, far from it. What it does is prove that the Lord's Word is true and it can be trusted to the uttermost.

This writer is certain, both because His Word promises it, and because his life testimony confirms it, that the Lord knows how to deliver His people.

If a destroyer is inbound, what does that mean? It means our redemption draws nigh. What were we told to do when all these things begin to happen? Look up? For what? Our redemption. The Lord our God, our Master and Savior is coming back to settle accounts with His servants. When? I have no idea, it may be years away which calls for patience. Then again, it may be today which calls for watchfulness and readiness.

Even if the escape is years away, there is no guarantee that we as individuals will live to see tomorrow. A large quake under one of our cities could mean we are face to face with the Lord instantly. I pray this will not happen to any of us. I pray that if I am called home before the escape it is not a violent way out like an earthquake.

Forget about Mayans and December 2012 and take a close look at the days ahead of you. 2011 started out with a bang-7.0 earthquake in Argentina. We will find out soon how 2012 is going to shape up.

A closing note on the quakes-if there is a destroyer inbound to the earth and it is causing these things, we can expect the quakes to get more violent as time advances. If we saw a 9.0 in March of last year, it is possible that this year we may have a quake that the 10.0 scale is unfit to handle...a true monster. Time will tell. I am not predicting anything, just observing. A pattern has been established. If events continue to follow this pattern then this world is in for a bumpy ride.

Conclusion

There is no need to fear if you are a believer in Christ Jesus. If the destruction promised by the prophets and the book of Revelation is on its way, we should place our hope fully in the promises our Lord gave us. You need to ask yourself if you really trust the Lord. What is your personal testimony with Him? Has He delivered you or not? Has He provided for you or not?

There is an escape from all and we were told to pray for it (Luke 21:36). If your doctrine or theology or "pastor" tells you there is no escape from all then you and they have a problem with the Lord's Word that may cause you much grief in the days ahead. There is a day coming when we will find out (I believe) that the Lord meant what He said, and said what He meant. All the fancy 200 page thesis papers telling us that Lord did not really mean to say what He said in plain simple to understand language will be flushed down the toilet, likely with their authors. If the Lord said it, He meant it. We have a blessed hope ahead of us.

My heart and spirit continue to point at the last words of Matt 24 and all of Matt 25. The parable of the virgins and the talents/faithful servants weighs on my heart as words that have come directly from the Lord today. I pray that we will be ready -through the gospel of peace (Eph 6), and we will be watching when the Lord arrives for us. I pray that we will not be ashamed in the Lord's presence and we will be given a warm welcome into the kingdom prepared for us from the creation of the world.

Keep the faith, be watching and ready. Grace and peace

6.6 Earthquake Siberia

2011-12-27T17:46:00.007-07:00

Here's another very large earthquake that hit 9 hours ago today. This time it was in Siberia. When these quakes hit areas that are sparsely populated everyone brushes them off. What's to worry, nobody lives there right? What's the guarantee that tomorrow a 6.6 does not hit directly under the place you live?

Yesterday it was a 6.0 north of New Zealand. Today a 6.6 in Russia. These are large quakes....

The evidence is stacking up and we haven't even reached January 1 yet. Whoever wants to tell us that earthquakes (especially major quakes) are not on the increase can be quickly silenced through the facts we are seeing every day now. Back to back 6.0 plus quakes in diverse locations tell us we are indeed on the right track with our thinking.

When all these things begin to happen...look up.

An Exercise

2011-12-27T12:57:00.008-07:00

I have an exercise for you today so you will see with your own eyes that "they" are hiding things from us in space.

1. go to google and type in "google sky"

2. When you get to google sky, type in "sirius"

Now zoom in or out as much as you have to so you can see the obvious obscured/hidden area of space that the people at google and their masters do not want you to see.

Why hide space objects from our view? There is one reason and only one reason to hide what's happening in space today. Something you should know is being hidden so you don't know and cannot act.

What did the Lord tell us to do when "all these things begin to happen?" LOOK UP. When you look up today where is your gaze focused? The heavens. What's up in the heavens today? Well, we don't know fully because many things are being hidden from us.

"They" can hide everything and it won't matter. Why? The very act of hiding tells us to be on the alert and watching. What did the Lord tell us to be doing? Watch and be ready. Over and over again we have been told to watch and be ready. They can hide whatever they want to because although they hide whats coming at us in the heavens, they cannot hide the 6.0, 7.0, 8.8, and 9.0 earthquakes that are already rocking this planet like a washing machine.

Look at that google sky image of sirius and notice the edge of the hidden area and the area all around the hidden area. Whatever this thing is they are hiding it is massive and it is brilliantly lit.

Put the pieces together. Watch what is happening to this earth. Watch how they are hiding things from us in space. Remember the Word of our Lord to look up. Figure out for yourselves what you see when you look up and what that means.

If we want to understand the days we are living in we need to pay careful attention to what the Lord told us to do. Watch, be ready, look up.

grace and peace

6.0 Earthquake Today-Tonga

2011-12-26T13:25:00.002-07:00

A 6.0 earthquake is large. Tonga is just north of New Zealand.

http://channel6newsonline.com/2011/12/strong-earthquake-strikes-off-tonga-no-damage-reported/

We are coming around the sun now to reach full exposure to whatever it is that is heading right at us. If this year repeats last years beggining, we have enough evidence in my mind to state with certainty that a destroyer of some kind is inbound.

If a destroyer is inbound, what does that mean from a Christian perspective? It means that we are counting down the "pre-flood" time this world has. The Word of God tells us in many places that the Lord knows how to deliver the godly (2 Peter 2, Noah, Lot etc). If deliverance comes before the destroyer arrives, then time may be shorter than most people think.

We do not know how much time is left. 2012 is almost here but it could be just another ordinary year of historic earthquakes, tsunamis, nuclear reactors melting down and poisoning the earth, revolution forming, economic collapse in progress...you know..."normal."

We must be patient and ready to wait here indefinitely and we must be ready to leave here today. The Lord can call for us to give an account of ourselves any minute now...are we ready? Patience will likely be needed this year since 2012 has been built up in the minds of many, what a great fall they will have if the year ends up passing "normally" as I described it above.

The world will not end in 2012, this world has at least 7 years left until the Lord comes back then we have another 1000 years after that etc. The world as many people know it has been, and will continue to change right before their very eyes and they do not see it. Their normalcy bias and spiritual blindness has them in a state where they cannot see.

There are so called christians (because I dont know what they are) that tell us the government statistics indicate there has been no increase in earthquakes so we should not worry. We should not worry because we know the governments of the world would never alter data.....rigggghhhht.

If we call these earthquakes as we see them, we have no need of edited statistics. Today we have another 6.0 piece of evidence of what is happening.

The Lord told us when all these things begin to happen, we should look up. Look up and what do you see? We will be called into the clouds with the Lord Jesus. There is an escape from all coming that our Lord guaranteed us. We have a blessed hope. We serve the God of all comfort if we are in right standing with Him.

If one of these very large earthquakes takes place under a large population center there will be no warning for those who live there. They need to be right with the Lord today. If a large earthquake takes place in the ocean creating another tsunami that impacts a large city, those people need to be right with the Lord when it arrives. Who knows if and when these things might happen? Lesson here is because we dont know, we must be watching and ready to meet the Lord today.

What is the parable of the virgins and the parable of the talents in Matt 25? Be prepared to wait, and be ready for the Master to return right now so you can settle accounts with Him. Be using your talents wisely so you can show some profit, however small when He arrives.

Things are far from normal today. I can physically sense how not right things are, even though I cannot describe with words exactly what it is I sense. A clock appears to be counting down for this world but nobody except the Lord knows how much time is left on the clock. Let us be found doing the things we know we should be doing when our Master returns for us. Let us do these things with great patience and endurance so we do not need to "go buy oil" like foolish virgins when the Lord calls us through the door for the wedding.

Keep the faith, grace and peace

Christchurch Earthquakes Again-More Evidence

2011-12-23T08:31:00.019-07:00

On 2/22 of this year Christchurch NZ was rocked by a shallow earthquake that resulted in widespread destruction and many fatalities. Remember what this writer's theory is...on this side of the sun-the Jan-June side we are face to face (without the sun between us) with whatever (Nibiru/Destroyer) is coming at us in space. Not even a year later-here we are coming into this same relative position around the sun and the same exact areas on earth are going active again with a 5.8 and a 5.9 earthquakes. Over the past 24 hours:

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/

http://www.freep.com/usatoday/article/52173520?odyssey=mod%7Cnewswell%7Ctext%7CFRONTPAGE%7Cs

This is objective evidence in this writer's eyes, that a destroyer is inbound to the earth on the Leo constellation side of the sun. What we are witnessing is a repeating pattern. When you can take a theory into a scientific lab and experiment to get repeatable results, its no longer a theory, it is then closer to fact than theory.

Those who are in denial or being paid to misinform us will try to put all of us back to sleep, but don't go back to sleep. If I told you that every Monday morning from January-June you would get hit in the head with a frying pan when you walked out your front door, and indeed every morning from January through June you did get hit with a frying pan-you would probably think "hey, this guy was right perhaps I should listen to why I'm getting hit with a frying pan." But when it comes to listening to this idea that a destroyer is inbound, people will not listen. If there were no references in the Word of God to coming destruction then you would be right to not listen. But when the Bible is full to overflowing with warnings of coming earth destruction then well, you be the judge of what you should pay attention to.

Let the evidence speak for itself. Does it matter what exactly is causing the destruction on the January-June side of the sun? Does it matter whether we call it a cosmic plasma cloud or a brown dwarf or Nibiru or the destroyer, or planet X or whatever? Nope, it doesn't matter one bit. What matters is we are establishing firm objective evidence through observation of repeating patters that something like Nibiru/A Destroyer is inbound. That's not enough though. We couple this evidence with what is clearly written in the Word of God and then we are on to something...

In 2 Peter 2, and Luke 17, Luke 21, Mark 13 and Matthew 24 we are told clearly that the Lord knows how to deliver the godly and hold the wicked under continual punishment until the time of their destruction. We are told that Noah and Lot were both spared from the apocalyptic events of their day and we too will be spared if we are found worthy.

If a destroyer is inbound, and all evidence points in that direction, then we should be looking up because our redemption draws nigh. Who told us to "look up" when all these things begin to happen? Jesus did. What do you see when you look up?

We were told to pray that we would be counted worthy of the escape that is certainly coming. Are you praying that you will be counted worthy of this escape from all that is about to happen? Many people refuse to do this to their own destruction and to the destruction of those who listen to them. Those people who teach there is no escape when there clearly is an escape written in plain sight in the Bible will have blood on their hands that they will have to answer for. How will a man answer the Lord when he is asked why he did not believe the Lord's own Word at face value? When the Lord tells us there is an escape from ALL then you can bet your life on the fact that there is an escape from all. The Lord does not use his Word casually. If He said it, He meant it-every Word of it.

We are seeing a repeating pattern here that this writer holds as evidence of an incoming destroyer. Where do we see in the bible the kind of language that would confirm this kind of destroyer inbound to the earth. Obvious references can be found in Revelation, however we find in the book of Isaiah some spot on language the Lord Himself gave us of whats about to happen. All of this is evidence in the Word of the Lord that points in the same direction:

Isaiah 24:Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. 2And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. 3The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word. 4The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. 5The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 6Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

7The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh.

8The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.

9They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.

10The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in.

11There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.

12In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.

13When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.

14They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the LORD, they shall cry aloud from the sea.

15Wherefore glorify ye the LORD in the fires, even the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the sea.

16From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.

17Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.

18And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.

19The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.

20The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

21And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.

22And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.

23Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

Its all there guys...I don't have time to go into every sentence here but just look at the first sentence of Isaiah 24-the Lord makes the earth empty and waste and flips it upside down scattering the inhabitants abroad. That's strong language from the mouth of the Lord through one of the Lord's own prophets. He said it, its going to happen. Does this jive with the idea of an inbound destroyer that jerks the earth around like a washing machine resulting in massive death destruction and devastation? You bet it does.

The evidence is there for us to see. What this means to this writer is we should be doing the things we already know we should be doing. Re-read Matt 24-25. We must be the wise virgins who are perfectly prepared to wait however long we need to for the Lords return. That is key, we must be prepared to wait. We must also be ready for the Lords return today. These are the lessons from the parable of the virgins and the parable of the talents in Matt 25.

We have no idea how much time is left. It is equally foolish to say that there is no time left as it is to say we have plenty of time left. We don't know. Our task is to be ready to wait forever, and ready to leave the earth today. This is not an easy task. We are walking a very narrow road here that leads to salvation and there are few people on this road (Matt 7:13-28).

What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Be patient AND be ready to leave today. Do not take this writers word for anything. My words are worthless. What does the Lord's Word say? Read Matt 25, the parables of the virgins and the talents. Read the end of Matt 2442Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50The 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,51And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

These are things this writer believes the Lord is saying to us today. Be watching because the Lord commanded you to. Be ready because the Lord commanded you to. Be patient because the wise virgins have oil in their lamp in preparation to wait. Be ready to leave this earth today because the Lord told us He is coming like a thief to settle accounts with us. Pray and stay in the Word of God because that is your readiness (Eph 6:15).

Keep the faith, grace and peace

More Dead Birds-Your Redemption Draws Near

2011-12-16T07:15:00.007-07:00

This time in New Mexico, another group of dead birds found along the highway.

http://www.abqjournal.com/main/2011/12/09/abqnewsseeker/bloomfield-highway-dotted-with-dead-birds.html

Why should we take notice? At this point we are not dealing with one group of dead birds that can be explained away by the nonsense given to us by the media. What we have now is a multi-year pattern of dead animals....its the pattern over an extended period of time that cuts through all of the ridiculous explanations offered to us by the 'experts' to put us back to sleep.

What are you talking about? Why is this written on a blog that belongs to the Lord?

Luke 21:8He replied: “Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them. 9When you hear of wars and revolutions, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”

10Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

^^^This is why. That, and this:

Luke 21:25“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 27At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”

Notice with me that both these sections of scripture are woven together in Luke 21. Luke 21 is where we also find the command for us to pray for escape (which many choose not to do).

What do we read there in verse 28? When these things begin to take place...We are to stand up and lift out heads up when these things begin to take place. Why? Our redemption draws near. Have "these things" begun to take place? Signs in the sun moon and stars? Nation rising against nation, and kingdom against kingdom? Yep. Earthquakes? Yep. Famines? Yes. Pestilences in various places? Yes. Fearful events? Yes. And great signs from heaven? Depends on who you ask but I would say..Yes.

So again I ask you, have "these things" begun to happen? Yes. And if they have begun to happen what were we told to do? Look up. Why? Our redemption draws nigh. If our redemption draws nigh what should we be doing? What does the Word say? Matt 24-25. Parable of the virgins, parable of the talents.

From Matt 24:42“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

45“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 46It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. 47I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 48But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ 49and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. 50The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. 51He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Look up-your redemption draws nigh, watch, be ready, be patient, do those things you know you should be doing-use your 'talents' don't bury them.

Notice that the parable of the talents Jesus was not upset at the servants who showed some profit. Only the servant who showed nothing, zero, no profit or increase whatsoever on what he was given-that servant was in big trouble. So do something, anything, take baby steps, do micro tasks whatever, anything to show something to the Master when He returns for us.

There have been many signs in the sun moon and stars lately. For example comet "Lovejoy" just flew right though an area close to the sun that was somewhere in the vicinity of 1-2 million degrees farenheit (give our take a few hundred thousand degrees). Now please help me to understand how a dirty ball of ice (what were told comets are made of) flies through a million or two million degree temps and comes out the other side without being destroyed? I know I'm not an 'expert' but do you see the problem with the story here? Go stick a snowball in a 500 degree oven and let me know how long it lasts.....case closed.

There are things going on above our heads that most people are blind to, and the rest who do see and understand are lying to us. Comet ELE-nin was not a destroyer, but it was a sign. Dead animals by the thousands falling all around us-another sign. This past September while ELE-nin was right on our doorstep Rev 12 was playing out above us in the stars:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaH9ofc6J9M

^^a huge sign...in the stars. Signs in the sun, moon and stars. They are here and they are ongoing. Have we seen all the signs yet? Not even close, but what did Jesus tell us? When these things BEGIN to happen...begin to happen..begin to happen..begin to happen-let it sink in, then look up because your redemption draws nigh.

These things have begun to happen so look up. This writer is looking up. Be ready to leave here today, but also be ready to wait for the Lord indefinitely. It can be difficult to do this but the Lord never promised us this would be easy.

How much longer? Why bother asking? If the Lord told us, most people wouldn't believe it anyway. Let's do what we were told to do. Keep the faith, watch in prayer, stay in the Word which is your readiness (feet shod with the armor of God-the gospel of peace which is the Word-Eph 6:15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace).

grace and peace

Major Earthquake and Mass Bird Deaths

2011-12-14T13:19:00.012-07:00

Again guys, we are off to the races. Any earthquake above a 7 is very very serious. we just had a 7.3 pop off in New Guinea and we are seeing (again) massive animal deaths. We are just days away from peeking out around the sun to the Leo facing side of the sun and we are already going strong along the trend/pattern line that I suspect tells us we have something coming at us.

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/

http://news.yahoo.com/thousands-birds-crash-landing-utah-152219107.html

Major quakes and mass animal deaths stacked on top of each other are not normal, not business as usual. What is usual is the way evidence in our face is downplayed by most everyone, especially the media. We wouldn't want anyone to suspect that time is short now would we?

I suspect that a destroyer is inbound. "What" it is, "what" its name is who knows and does it really matter "what" its name is?

What's the connection to Christianity? Why write about this here? We are believers who were told "when all these things begin to happen" then "look up." Who specifically is bringing judgement and wrath upon this earth in the days ahead? The Lord is. The Lord Jesus Christ, not Satan will open the seals in Revelation 6-this fact alone damns the satanic lie known as the "pre-wrath" rapture which is not pre-wrath at all but another varation of the post-trib rapture which tells you in effect that Noah escaped none of the flood, and Lot escaped none of the fire and brimstone. Somehow they were "kept" with scuba gear and flame retarding suits? That's what the "pre-wrath" and "post-trib" teachers would tell you through their twisted doctrine. But is that whats written in the stories of Noah and Lot? Not by a long shot.

2 Peter 2 clearly states that the Lord knows how to deliver the godly from the test/temptation/trial that is about to come upon the earth just as He did with Noah and Lot, go read it for yourselves in 2 Peter 2.

If a destroyer is coming and the Lord knows how to deliver the godly from such things, our redemption could be drawing nigh. Am I predicting anything? No. Is this a worthless waste of time to even consider such things? I don't think so. What did the Lord instruct us to do? Watch and be ready. For what? His return. If we suspect by an accumulation of evidence that the Lord's return may be near should we pay a little more attention than usual to what we were told to do in the first place? I think so.

Watch and be ready. That's not a command I can give you but it is a command the Lord gave to all of us. Be prepared to wait like the wise virgins but also be watching and ready to give an account for ourselves should the Master show up for us soon.

If nothing else I look at the evidence provided to you today as another reason or excuse or whatever you want to call it to do the things we know we should be doing...watching and employing the talents the Lord has given us.

A slight side note today:

Last night I believe the Lord spoke clearly to my mind..as clear as I've ever actually distinguished His voice in my head. It was so clear in fact that it almost startled me. Again, I didn't audibly "hear" anything, it was a statement imprinted on the voice of my mind. I was asking the Lord what is going to happen. I asked Him when He was going to return for us. That's when I "heard" one of the clearest voices in my mind I have ever heard ask me a question in return. He said "what would you change in your life if you knew exactly when I was coming back?" Immediately after receiving that question my mind kind of went into a tailspin with other questions like "do I need to change anything" and whats the implication of needing to change something and relying on knowledge of the timing of His return to make that change etc.

I was almost stunned by the return question I received. I'm still kind of dazed by it even now. I haven't reached a conclusion on this matter other than the one repetitively repeating in my mind-watch, be ready, be patient, be doing the things you know you should be doing. If we are doing these things we are ready all the time. As I'm writing this I remembered one small conclusion that I answered the Lord with after I recovered from my tailspin. I told the Lord that I would use the information to warn the people. He replied again with "would they listen?" to which a bunch of scriptures flashed through my head and I had to answer "no" which lead to my kind of sensing the Lord's point which I think is "then what's the use?"

The different scriptures that flashed through my mind when answering "would they listen" were:

Luke 16:19There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: 20And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, 21And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 23And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. 25But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. 26And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would comefrom thence. 27Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: 28For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. 29Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. 30And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. 31And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

and the story of Noah who I am sure during all those years explained what he was doing and why he was doing it to the people around him and in the end it was still only him and his family in that ark. The people won't listen..

At this point many people are already desensitized to warning after warning. People are losing patience just like the foolish virgins who were not prepared to wait. "What's the use" they ask?

The "use" is we were commanded to watch and be ready. We have been encouraged that if we are patient and are found worthy (Rev 3:10, Luke 21:36, 2 Peter 2) then we can escape all thats about to happen just as Noah and Lot did before us. The Lord knows how to deliver the godly....He always has, and His promises cannot fail. If an escape from all was promised, an escape from all will be provided-guaranteed.

Keep the faith, do not let the scoffers and naysayers and spreaders of doctrines of demons steal your faith and your hope in the promises given to us. We serve the God of all comfort (2 Cor 1:3) who has provided for us a blessed hope during this wicked and perverse generation. Let us hold on to the promises, they will not fail us. That has been my testimony proven out by the many miracles in my life and the day to day care the Lord has provided for me. I have memorials built from miracles that are proof positive that my God has not and will not fail me. The Lord does not respect persons, what has been done for me can and will be done for you.

Keep the faith, be watching and ready. grace and peace

Earthquakes

2011-12-11T07:37:00.007-07:00

6.8 earthquake just hit mexico city.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/usc000753u.html

That's close to home now guys. Yesterday I was in the garage doing some work in Virginia and I felt a deep earth tremor ( no i dont think it was tied to the mexico quake. Its what an earthquake feels like seconds before the ground beneath you starts to rock violently. The sound of it was what really gave it away. Nothing else on earth makes that kind of sound.

We are just days away from peeking around the sun to a direct line with whatever it is (Nibiru/the destroyer) that's causing the earth to act so violently. Remember the events of last year..In Jan, Feb and March the earth had its teeth kicked in by violent earthquakes. Are we getting started already?

As a recap why write this on a blog that belongs to the Lord? If we see another round of violent earthquakes that should be worse or as bad as what we saw last year, then time is short for many people. Its time to get right and stay right with the Lord. I guess part of it is acting out of the fear of the Lord, and another part is acting out of duty-we know what we should be doing, and yet another part should be acting out of love as we attempt to do the things that will please the Lord.

Be watching and ready. How do we watch? Through prayer

Col 4:2 (YLT) In the prayer continue ye, watching in it in thanksgiving;

What does that say^^? Continue in prayer "watching in it" with thanksgiving.....thats watching in prayer. That's how we "watch" theres more evidence but im short on time today.

How do we ensure we are "ready?" Readiness comes from the Word of God, washing comes from the Word of God:

Ephesians 6:15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that ...

and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

and

Eph 5:25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word

Who knows how much time is left, certainly this writer does not know. All appearances are that time is short, but we have gone on this way for years now. How many more years must we stay here? The Lord knows and we must remain patient. The Lord could come for us tonight. Any of us could die out or be raptured/escape out any moment. It is for us to be watching and ready. We watch in prayer and our readiness comes from the gospel of peace-the Word of God.

The large earthquakes are already starting guys-I'm counting that 6.8 in Mexico as the first in my watch of what happens the first half of 2012. Keep the faith, stay in the Word and prayer. We are dearly loved. grace and peace

The Pre-Trib Rapture in Peter and The Unexpected Arrival

2011-12-10T07:45:00.008-07:00

2 things today:

First, the pre=trib rapture in 2 Peter:

2 Peter:4For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; 5And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemnedthem with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; 7And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: 8(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) 9The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:

Its all there guys, Noah Lot judgement and deliverance for the righteous. This is a direct tie in to Mark 13, Matt 24 and Luke 17. As it was in the days of Noah remember? And what does the Lord specifically tell us here in 2 Peter? Read verse 9, what does it say? The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations. That word temptation is the greek word peirasmou which just happens to be the same exact greek word we read in Revelation 3:10 which also tells us we will be kept from the hour of temptation. That word peirasmou means an experiment, a test, a trial.

We know that the time coming known as the tribulation or the time of Jacob's trouble will be a great test and trial for those who are on the earth. We also know (because we use the bible to interpret the bible) that some people will be delivered physically just like Noah and Lot were from this time of temptation, trial and testing. For those who dont know how to interpret what being "kept" means in Rev 3:10, its explained for us in the stories of Noah, Lot and here in 2 Peter. The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations just like He did with Noah and Lot. So we must ask ourselves how were Noah and Lot delivered? They were completely physically delivered. That is, not one second of treading floodwaters for Noah and not one fiery ember on Lots clothes. That's not my opinion, thats biblical fact.

Over and over and over again we read about the deliverance of the godly, but tribulation trial testing and death for the wicked. What part of this biblical pattern do people not understand?

Know this and digest it from the Lord's own Word: The Lord knows how to deliver the righteous out of peirasmou=trial, temptation, testing, tribulation

Second point thats a follow up to the first:

The Lord will arrive for us suddenly and for most-unexpected. I was reading the gospel of Mark this morning and heres what jumped out at me:

Mark 1112The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. 14Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.

Anything seem odd to you about this thing Jesus did? He cursed a fig tree that wasn't in season for fruit! Seems kind of unfair doesn't it? We all know that to walk up to a fig tree when its not fig season and look for fruit is going to be a disappointing experience, did the Lord not understand that? Of course He did, so what's the messsage? Many lessons here.

First lesson, the Lord isnt teaching fig trees lessons from His Word he's teaching us humans. Whats the lesson we take from the unfortunate fig tree? Regardless of what season it is, when the Lord arrives at your door, He better find fruit. The fig tree is also used to point to the time of the end:

Matt 24:32Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

How many times has the Lord told us that His coming would be unexpected and sudden like a thief? 2 Peter ties into Mark 13, Luke 17, Matt 24 and now we have another direct link to Matt 25 the parable of the virgins and the parable of the talents. The wise virgins brought oil enough to patiently wait for their Lord. They were ready and prepared to wait-a lesson for us. The parable of the talents tells us the same thing the unfortunate fig tree teaches, that is we need to be prepared to show some fruit, some use of our talents, some profit on what the Lord has given us when He returns suddenly for us.

Matt 25 has it all. What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Be watching and ready, but also be prepared to wait. What happens if 2012 comes and goes and nothing unexpected happens? Will we be prepared to wait? What happens if the Lord shows up for us tonight? Will we be watching and ready?

You have read it here more than you probably care to-we must be perfectly prepared to wait another 10 years for the Lord to come back for us but we also must be ready for the Lord to arrive for us tonight.

Many people are becoming fatigued in their waiting. Somehow someway those of us who believe must ensure that we stay patient. I believe that one of Satan's tactics in this war is to push and pull people to rip them off their foundation through false signs and signals. The evil goal is to make people impatient enough for them to give up watching and readiness basically turning them into foolish virgins.

We may be very close to the escape or we may be years away. I will be watching the earthquake activity closely toward the end of this month and into the end of March. Also the summer will be telling if you remember the events of last summer in New Zealand. January through June or so will put us on the Leo side of the sun which is where this destroyer (in theory) is approaching us from. If we see more widespread destruction during the same window of time, we'll have some objective evidence that our theory has some life to it. What does this theory have to do with Christianity? If the Lord sent a destroyer, and the Lord knows how to deliver the godly from peirasmou (2 Peter 2, Rev 3:10) then we may be very close to being delivered.

Now a quick note about writing:

The Lord has a way of blocking my writing to shut down things He does not want written here. He has done this in the past with me. So when the Lord allows something to be written here, this writer considers there to be some life there. Another writing factor here is internal resonance (what resonates spirit to Spirit within me) tells me which direction the Lord's thinking is going and therefore what should be written here. Its kind of like following a river that is changing direction when it wants to. Another way I "hear" the Lord is when I am reading the Word some thing jump right off the page at me. This I know is Spirit of the Lord in action and its the Lord speaking to me. Different things jump off the page at different times. The Lord told us His Word is living and active and sharper than a double edged sword. I believe it.

Destroying the Creation With the Creation

2011-12-06T16:32:00.003-07:00

You have read it here many times now that the Lord has destroyed the creation with the creation. an example of this that is often cited is the flood in Noah's day. Read this passage from the bible that more or less nails down this concept:

Gen 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

People could argue this translation or that translation but look for yourselves at the judgements coming on this world. Look to the book of Revelation for a preview of coming events. What do we see? Plague, famine, the sword, hail and fire..and thats just for starters. All of it is quite natural to the eye isn't it?

What's the point? Maybe its possible for us to judge the season we live in. We do not know the day or hour but perhaps we can correctly judge the season in which our Lord will arrive for us.

I haven't been feeling normal lately. Careful observation of the people around me tells me I'm not the only one physically feeling/sensing that all is not well. I've been hearing strange sound quake/earth quake sounds to the west of where we live yet nobody feels the ground shaking. I've been noticing IT issues that go well beyond the normal IT problems. I've seen direct TV signals with steady "pulses" going through them at a number of different locations. What does any of this mean? What kinds of shenanigans are being cooked up? What is going on that we all sense but just cant put our fingers on?

These are questions that I ask myself. The Restrainer continues to restrain today, but while He is restraining I have analyzed what He has allowed as well as what has been restrained. The most obvious and big picture restraint has been that all hell has not broken loose yet. We have not seen widespread systemic collapse yet. We have seen pockets of it but not widespread collapse. The big picture Restraint that we all should thank the Lord for is still in place.

What has been allowed in spite of the Restrainer? 9/11 was allowed to happen. That was a big deal. That was a large scale satanic sacrifice and it was allowed to happen. Japan, the quake and tsunami that resulted in the nuclear poisoning of the world was allowed to happen. Those reactors have been spilling unimaginable amounts of radiation poisoning into the land sea and air. That was allowed. How much longer till widespread cancer cases begin to show up? The Lord knows, we will find out. What does this mean?

The Restrainer will continue to restrain until we are taken out. Right up till the rain started falling the people of Noah's day continued buying and selling, planting and building, marrying and giving in marriage, so it will be in our day. In our day however this writer believes a clock is ticking in the background. Israel being reformed in 1948 is a clock. The events of 9/11 and the growing police state is a clock. The poisonous saturation of the natural environment with radiation is a clock. The record setting floods and drought and earthquakes and tornadoes and volcanoes are a clock (you like to eat right?) The global economic fleecing of the people resulting in civil unrest (its already started) is a clock. What do clocks do? They tell you what time it is in some cases. In other cases they tell you how much time you have left.

We could argue that with all these clocks ticking at the same time the days of business as usual are quickly coming to an end. The pre-flood world appears to be witnessing the first few drops of rain that would indicate for us the need to listen for that voice that would call us into our "ark" just as the Lord God called Noah into the ark and shut the door behind him.

In Matt 25 the virgins who were ready went into the wedding and the "door" was shut behind them, just as it was for Noah and it was the Lord in both cases that shut the door. In Revelation 3 there is an open door:

8I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Who opened the door? The Lord did. In Rev 4 the first thing John explains to us is an open door in heaven.

Are you getting this? As it was in the days of Noah? An open door closed by the Lord after the righteous have entered their place of safety?

This writer is "looking up" these days. As a result of this upward gaze, this writer is fixated on those things that could be coming from above. The Lord Jesus could call us out of here any moment. The destroyers sent to lay waste to this world could be on the way. The Lord sends them all (seals, trumpets, vials).

What should we do about it? Well, what instruction did the Lord give us in Matt 25? What was the parable of the virgins about? What about the parable of the talents? I am convinced that the Lord does not want us living in worldly fear (which kills) but we are certainly to fear the Lord. We are to remember the Lord's kindness and mercy as well as his judgement and severity (Romans 11:22).

What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Does the Lord still speak to men? Is He a "silent God" as so many accuse Him of or does He speak to us daily? That bible in your house if full of God's Word to us. The bible is living and active and sharper than any two edged sword. That tells me and you that living Words await us in that book. If we want to know what the Lord is saying to us today we need to pick up that book (the Bible). The Words in there are living and active. The Lord God can and will speak to us through that Word.

I would like to encourage you today as much as warn you. This writer is warned and encourage with you. The Lord has confirmed his presence in my life with many miracles but I still tremble just like you do. The fear of the Lord is very real to me. I am struggling in my imperfection just like you are today. When I write to you that I am the least of the brothers (and sisters) in Christ I am not practicing false humility, I mean it. Keep the faith, dont give up. Things have grown difficult in recent days. The Lord has provided for this family richly, but the difficulty I speak of is something else.

Watch, be patient, pray, be persistent. Stay in the Word take no mans word for anything (including mine). What are men? They are weak and short lived like the grass of the field, here today and gone tomorrow, of what account are they? The Lord God who is not like men should have our full attention. Don't worry about your trials and tribulations and all of your imperfections. Take another baby step forward today in the direction of your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and don't give up. These are the words this writer is impressed with today. grace and peace

ELE-nin The Warning

2011-12-04T08:44:00.006-07:00

I was thinking about the state of affairs the other night and I wanted to share with you the fruit of this thinking. We all know that ELE-nin was not itself the cause of any doom to this world. Many people believed that ELE-nin was a word that stood for some kind of Extinction Level Event and this writer took that thought of possible extinction level event seriously, but why?

We know whats coming. The book of revelation tells us that extinction level events are on the way. That is biblical fact. So when we see something coming that supports what we already know for sure is going to happen, we should take it seriously. As it was, ELE-nin was a warning and nothing else. Did we really need another warning when we have all the warnings written across the pages of the bible? Yes. The work the Lord has called this brother to do is to encourage and warn people, I guess like a watchman would do. The Lord has made what is coming to this world as written in the pages of the bible 100% rock solid certain to this brothers mind heart and spirit.

With the certainty this brother has, he can warn and encourage with confidence. There is an escape coming just like there was in Noah's day, the Word says it, this brother is certain of it. All of the end time events as written by the prophets and in the book of revelation are rock solid certain to come to this world at some point in our future.

So what? We know extinction level events are coming, but we dont know when. This leads me to what this brother is still watching, that is something coming toward the earth causing all the many effects we see with our eyes (dead animals everywhere, huge earthquakes, volcanoes, norway spiral, huge power outages etc etc), but many people have not connected together yet. What makes the most sense is some kind of destroyer is approaching through which our Lord will destroy much of the creation. The Lord judges the creation through the creation. As an example, the Lord told us the coming of the Son of man will be just like it was in the days of Noah. How did the Lord destroy life on earth in Noah's day? Through the creation (the flood).

This writer is eyeing the end of this month into January-March to determine if a certain hypothesis is correct-that is that a destroyer is approaching. If we see another string of earth shaking events like we did last year in South America, New Zealand and Japan during the months of Jan-March then I think we have some objective evidence that this thing is coming and it is real. This hypothesis is based on 1. looking in the direction the Lord told us to (look up!) and based on that looking 2. pattern recognition.

If we do get the same kinds of events over the next days weeks and months, then we will know with some some objectivity that the destroyer is inbound. If we know this, what will this mean for our walk with the Lord? It all comes back to that. All things in the creation must point back to the Creator for their resolution. What about the Lord Jesus? What about the Son of God? These are questions that should arise in almost every decision we make and in every event in our lives.

If a destroyer is approaching that means our game must be stepped up. We must be living as though there were no time left. These are things we should be doing anyway, with or without a destroyer-right? We must be living as if each day here was to be our last, and each day could be our last. Nobody guaranteed any of us another day on earth. We could die out today, we could rapture out today. Are we ready?

We must be ready to stay here for an indefinite period of time with great patience and we must be ready to leave today. That's whats written in the bible. The wise virgins we patiently prepared. The faithful servants were about their Lords business and ready to settle accounts with Him when He came back unexpectantly (Matt 25)-so must we be ready. We must be ready today and everyday during this wicked time full of scoffers and ridicule.

Keep the faith, be watching and ready. grace and peace

2012 Guesstimate

2011-11-28T14:50:00.008-07:00

2011 started with a bang and so far, looks like it will end with a whimper. If you remember the first quarter of this year, the earth was rocked. Between South America, New Zealand and Japan we had enough doom to think the end was indeed near. We saw quakes that ranged from the high 7s up through a 9 in Japan.

My understanding is that this thing, call it Nibiru or whatever you want is now behind the sun. The sun is shielding us from its influence at the moment. Starting late December 2011 into January 2012 I anticipate that once again we will see a repeat of the disasters of the early months of 2011 as we move around in our orbit of the sun, losing its protection and are again exposed to the influence of Nibiru. This time whatever may happen to the earth should be amplified because this space object is one year closer to us. Remember, this is just a guesstimate, a hypothesis not a prediction or a prophesy. This guesstimate is a by-product of this brother's watching.

What does this have to do with Christianity you ask? Well, if, and its just an if this world takes it on the chin again the way we did during the first months of this year. Many more people will perish. Yea, and? There is no guarantee that South America, New Zealand and Japan get the brunt of it again. Yea, and? This time the death and destruction could be at our doorstep. And? And if we are not right with the Lord now, we might be in trouble.

There are two ways we can stand before the Lord in short order. We can die out of this world or we can rapture/escape out. The Lord has not given me any clues other than the ones we all can see that the escape from all is near. If my guesstimate is correct, and starting around late Dec/Jan we start getting rocked again it is my prayer and hope that you who have ears to hear are ready along with me for whatever happens.

Again, I have received no word from the Lord on any of this. If I have received something from Him, it would be that internal resonance that says keep watching and be ready. It is possible that this writer is a watchman. The Lord never told me that I was, and I refuse to put labels on myself that the Lord has not given me directly. If this writer is a watchman then his duty is to warn the people. Here's this writer warning the people...I along with you have been warned now that in short order we may be in for more world rocking events. Perhaps nothing will happen next year. If thats the case then bless the Lord for another year of forbearance from His wrath and judgement that are surely coming. If 2012 is quiet, at a minimum we can say we were watching and ready, our minimum service in obedience to the commands the Lord has given us.

The Lord told us the end would come like childbirth (1 Thess 5:3). We are seeing events like earthquakes increasing in frequency and intensity. If there is an object like Nibiru approaching us close and closer every day, wouldn't it make sense that it would fit perfectly with what the Lord told us would happen? As it gets closer, earthquakes and such get more frequent and more violent. Again, "what" causes the promises in the bible to be fulfilled does not matter. The Lord told us whats going to happen and we can bank on it.

If we get a hint of a warning to be ready before disaster strikes, I consider this a blessing and thank the Lord for it.

keep the faith, grace and peace

Happy Day After Thanksgiving

2011-11-25T08:51:00.006-07:00

Thanksgiving in this writers mind is one of the most holy holidays. Why? Its a day to focus on the Lord God and give Him the thanks due to His name. Also it has not been hijacked by so called christianity and turned into a pagan holiday lightly dressed in a facade of christianity.

This writer and likely many of you have reason to give thanks. Thanksgiving is a day, a memorial on the calendar to stop and give thanks. For us who believe every day should be thanksgiving. The memorial day reminds us of what we should be doing every day. This brings us to the Feast of Trumpets. The Feast Day in this case reminds us that the Lord Jesus is coming. It also points to an unknown day that we should be looking for.

How do we look for an unknown day? You have to look for it every day. As it has been said here before, there is no argument any of the 'other tribbers' can use that is in any way better than the argument we the pre-tribulation believers make to be watching and ready every day. How can you miss the coming of the Lord if you are watching and ready every day? It is a water tight, iron clad, perfect from start to finish strategy for being ready to meet the Lord.

The "pre-wrath" who aren't really pre-wrath and the post-trib teachers tell you that we have a long time to wait until the Lord can possibly arrive for us. This writer believes they will pay a heavy price for their failure to watch daily now. As you believe, so you receive-thats what the Lord told us (Matt 8:13).

The wrath of God starts with the first seal that is opened. Wrath is clearly defined by the bible as the sword and famine at a minimum (Ezekiel 6:12) therefore the early seals (2 -3 at a minimum) of Revelation 6 opened by the Lord Jesus Christ are irrefutably the wrath of God unleashed on man. To be truly a pre-wrath believer is to believe the rapture will occur before the early seals of Rev 6 are opened.

What does that mean? Just what we have been saying here all along. The proof is stacked from the earth up into the heavens. The Lord will be coming back for us before the wrath of Rev 6-seals 2 or 3 onward takes place.

The Lord has impressed upon this writer what we all know, that is the entire bible points toward the Lord Jesus Christ in every way. One of those ways is how the ark that saved Noah and his family points to Jesus Christ as being our ark. There are many similarities between Jesus and Noah's ark. For example, there was only one door to enter the ark of safety. Who is the door to salvation in our day? You got it, Jesus Christ the Son of God and Him alone.

Another example is how Noah and His family were lifted up in the ark high above the earth. We know for a fact that during the escape from all coming to the earth that we will meet the Lord in the clouds. And where are the clouds? High above the earth. Will we be safe from the 'flood' that will be the tribulation period if we are with Jesus high above the earth in the clouds? Yep, just like Noah was safe. There are many more comparison made by other people if you care to google search their research.

Jesus Christ is the ark of our safety. He always has been and always will be. The Lord God can and will be coming back for us on an unknown day. We must be watching and ready for Him. Today I was reading Matthew 24 and what I see in there is a transition directly from the pre-flood days of the 'beginning of sorrows' directly to the tribulation.

I believe that it has dawned on me what the Lord's work for me is. My work is to warn whoever will listen that the Lord is coming back for us soon. My work is also to encourage those who will listen that the Words of the Lord are true as they point to an escape.

We were told that the coming of the Son of man will be just like the days of Noah and Lot. There was alot going on in the days of Noah. The days of Noah covered alot of ground-everything from the Nephilim on the earth to the earth being covered in violence to Noah walking with the Lord, the ark and salvation. What my work has been up through today has been to outline the apostasy of the church and present it to those who have ears to hear. It has also been (for the bulk of my time) to watch and warn that the Lord is coming. This is my understanding today of the work the Lord would have me do for the kingdom.

Why bother telling you these things? Because it explains why this writer sounds like a broken record. You read the same kinds of things over and over again. The reason why is the Lord fashioned this writer as a tool for doing this precise thing. A hammer sees everything as a nail, because a hammer was designed to drive in nails. Same thing with this writer, hopefully that explains what you read here.

The Lord is coming back for us soon. What does soon mean? I don't know. That's what resonates within the spirit of this writer. "Soon" is what I hear but I cannot nail down dates or times for you. I also "hear" patience from the Word of God which is Jesus Christ. The wise virgins brought oil with their lamps to wait. They were prepared to wait and we must be also. Why? The Lords understanding of time differs from ours. When the Lord says "soon" that means soon from His perspective not ours. He could return today, or 10 years from now. Both would be soon to Him.

Be watching and ready today. There are many unexplained young people dieing around us in the world today. What is causing these young people to die prematurely? Its more than bad luck, there is a systemic reason behind it. Whats that reason? All is not right.. If a person dies, thats it for them. If they werent watching and ready to meet the Lord at that time, they are in trouble. Watching and being ready right now has just as much to do with us going to meet the Lord in death as it does being called into the clouds to meet the Lord in the rapture. Nobody guaranteed us we will see the end of this day.

Being ready to meet the Lord today is a failsafe strategy. Does watching and readiness to meet the Lord today encourage holiness in your life? You bet it does. Does it encourage you to do the things you know you should be doing? Yes. So should we be watching and ready to meet the Lord today? Yes.

There is something going on in the world today that is not right. There are many things that are adversely affecting humans all over the world, I mean physically affecting us. Between fukushima radiation and chemtrail clouds to fluoride in our water to empty calorie and genetic modified food there is a war on the human body.

The economy appears poised to collapse. Societies bonds are disintegrating. War appears imminent. There are volcanoes, earthquakes, floods and famine everywhere we look. The signs are everywhere that the floodgates are about to be opened, but for today the gates have been restrained.

There is a Restrainer at work in the world today. The reason why we have gone so long without the floodgates being opened is because of the miraculous power of the Restrainer. This is a big point for us who watch and wait today. The devil does not determine the times and seasons of the end. The devil will not determine when the tribulation will start. The devil does not know when the Son of man will return. The devil can make educated guesses just like we can, but he does not know.

There are many many satanic false signs in the world today to counterfeit real signs the Lord has given us. So what? So, as long as we watch in readiness and wait every day those signs do not matter. Many people feel jerked around by what they consider false signals. You will not feel jerked around if you remember we are in this for however long it takes and we are watching and ready every day.

We all want to be with the Lord today. We all want the rapture to occur ASAP. The mercy of the Lord extends to those who are not yet ready today. This writer has a testimony that says the mercy and patience of the Lord are a blessing. If us waiting means more souls in the ark then its worth the wait. Waiting is hard. Many of the foolish virgins made no preparation to wait and they pay a heavy price for it (Matt 25).

What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Be ready for the Lord's return today but do not forget the lessons of the wise virgins and the faithful servants (Matt 25).

He knows we are weak and have little power (Rev 3-the church of Philadelphia). Be strong and very courageous. The Lord has given this writer many personal signs and signals that let me know the Lord is with me. This writer prays that what is written here is not the mind of man, but a product of resonance with the Spirit of God. That is my prayer.

May the Lord bless you and keep you, may His face shine upon you and may He grant you peace. I ask you to please pray for me and my family. That we may be counted worthy along with you of the escape from all that is surely coming. Pray also that this writer may be given words of edification for you from the Lord's own mouth.

The words written here are for you. I pray that this writer may be removed completely from the words appearing on this blog that you and I can read and understand the mind of the Lord.

keep the faith, grace and peace

The Pre-Trib Rapture Standard

2011-11-20T07:48:00.004-07:00

Gen 71And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation

We know from the gospels that the coming of the Son of man will be exactly like the days of Noah and Lot. What happened in the days of Noah? Did the Lord give us His reasoning for inviting Noah into the ark and leaving the rest outside? He certainly did. The Lord tells us that Noah was seen righteous in his generation before the Lord. That was the standard and it flies directly in the face of everything the "pre-wrath" and "post-trib" teachers of today tell you.

The pre-wrath and post-trib teachers tell you that those who are righteous before the Lord in this generation still "need" to get their teeth kicked in during the tribulation for this reason or that. Show me one place in the bible where the Lord confirms this doctrine of devils? Nowhere. The bible explains to us the mind and reasoning of the Lord. What is the mind and reasoning of the Lord as it concerns us in the days ahead?

Let the bible explain it:

Luke 17:26And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. 28Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; 29But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyedthem all. 30Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed

As it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be again, the bible says that clearly. What else does the bible clearly tell us?

Gen 71And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation

The righteous in this generation will be called into "the ark" (before the flood). How do we know this is an ironclad guarantee? Because the Lord Himself tells us it will be just exactly like the days of Noah and in those days the righteous in the generation were spared from "the flood."

Why are there so many lies and so much deception concerning this in the world today? Because there are already many different "christs" in the world leading men astray. People say they follow Jesus, but I ask "which one?" If your brothers name is John, is everyone named John your brother? No. How do we know people follow different "Jesus" from the Son of God Jesus? We know from their doctrine. We know because their "Jesus" teaches them a different gospel from what we read in the pages of the bible.

They quote the bible but they twist its message. The righteous in the generation will be spared. Who said that? Jesus did.

The only way any of us will understand the mind of the Lord is to have the Spirit of the true and living God inside of us. If He does not teach us then we are deaf dumb and blind. The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord. No fear of the Lord=no wisdom.

For a long time I myself have not understood what the Lords mission for me was. Perhaps it is just to follow Him one step at a time and that is all I need to know. The writing on this blog started with pointing out the complete and utter apostasy of todays so called christianity. Once the articles were written about that topic the Lord has had me move on never to look back. What has the Lord focused this writer on for most of the time this blog has been in existence? The rapture of the Church and the coming of the Lord.

If there is any subject that stands out to this writer above all others it is the coming of the Lord Jesus. If there is a message that this writer believes stands out above all others it is that we must be watching and ready for the Lord when He arrives. Thats it. Simple yes?

Timing: no man knows the day or hour. This writer has no idea whatsoever when the Lord will arrive for us. What do I suspect will happen based on what I understand today? The Feast of Trumpets is the next fall feast day to be prophetically fulfilled. That feast day points to an unknown day or hour. I do not know this, but I suspect that the Lord will come for us on one of the most 'boring' days of the year. Why? The wicked will not see it coming. If the Lord arrived on Rosh Hashanah some year, the wicked may be ready for it. They can read just like we can. The coming of the Lord will be unexpected. What day of the year would we least expect the Lord to arrive? That's the day He will arrive.

Hypothetically speaking what if the Lord arrived some boring day in February? Nothing special about the day except its boring and nothing special about it, except....that would be the day the Lord chose to arrive. Would that literally meet the requirement to arrive on an unknown day and hour? YES. Remember, the wicked spiritualists who are serious know for sure that the Lord does not lie and what He says will be done, will be done. They are slicing and dicing the Lord's Word for meaning just as we are. Their problem is they do not have the Spirit of God author living inside them to lead them to the truth.

Based on this thinking, we could and should expect the Lord to arrive on a day like today. An ordinary, nothing special about it day on which few if any would expect the Lord to arrive. It will be good for those servants who are watching and ready at the door when their Master arrives for them. That is the loud and clear message I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying today. Let us be watching and ready today, but let us not forget to do it with great patience like the wise virgins who brought oil with their lamps to wait for a Lord who mercifully tarries for those who do not yet "know" Him.

grace and peace

Nibiru Noah and Lot

2011-11-18T06:14:00.005-07:00

Awhile ago an article was written here called Nibiru: if the shoe fits wear it. That article tells us what I want to write about again. When we take into consideration everything thats going on in the world and put it into a single framework to make sense of it all, which framework works the best? A Nibiru centric framework does. If we ask ourselves a series of questions like this:

How does the Lord judge the creation? Answer: through the creation, ie Noah's flood judged the ancient world

What in the creation could the Lord have employed to cause Noah's flood? Answer: Nibiru

What in creation could have caused the fire and brimstone to fall from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah? Answer: Nibiru

or Why are the powers that be allowing themselves to be chemtrailed along with all the rest of us? Because the chemtrails contain barium which absorbs radiation. Nibiru is emitting radiation that is hammering the world more and more every day. The chemtrails are absorbing it. The Lord I believe brought something to my attention the other day, its a test for how you feel and an empirical test for yourself of the reality of this. On bright sunny days for awhile now I've felt bad physically. I've asked the Lord, why can't I feel better on these beautiful days? On chemtrail days I usually feel physically better although emotionally I am upset at the way the skies are polluted. Test it for yourself. When there are no clouds, just bright sunshine test how you feel and compare it to other days.

More shoes that fit? Why are the powers that be attempting to run the economy into the ground now when they know people will revolt? They know the destroyer is inbound so they dont care if we revolt, they will be hiding in their caves while most get pummeled. That is their thinking and their cure for the masses revolting.

Why the nonstop bunker building by the powers that be? The destroyer/Nibiru is inbound

Why the doomsday seed vault in Norway? Nibiru the destroyer is inbound.

What caused the Norway spiral that the media lied off as a missile test? An inbound destroyer

In Matt 24 and Luke 17 we are told that the coming of the Son of man will be just like the days of Noah and Lot. This destroyer is a brown dwarf star, which means it is super cold, which means it is invisible which means its approaching by stealth, which means it is "coming like a thief."

Why are google sky and msn hiding sections of the sky so we cannot see whats out there? The destroyer is coming.

Why have millions of fish and birds died over the past couple years? The destroyer is coming

Why are the bees dieing mysterious deaths? Nibiru

Why are earthquakes and volcanoes, especially large ones popping off with more frequency and intensity? Nibiru

Why are we seeing earthquakes in places where there are no fault lines (Oklahoma)? Nibiru

Its a unified theory and it works without a fault. The earth is changing radically and something is causing it. Are there other theories out there for what is causing earth changes? Sure. Do they cover all the explanatory ground that a destroyer brown dwarf approaching does? No.

Could I be wrong about the name of whats approaching? Sure. Does it matter what its called? No, the effects are the same regardless of what we call it.

So once again we are brought back to the days of Noah and Lot. What does the bible tell us about these days? People were eating and drinking, planting and building, buying and selling and all the while a day of destruction was approaching them that they did not see. Look at the world today and what do you see? Buying and selling, planting and building, drinking and eating while a destroyer approaches that they do not see.

Does the biblical tie in stop there? No. Read through the entire book of Revelation, the seals, the trumpets, the vial judgements and what thread runs through them all? What in creation could be used to judge the creation in such a way as to cause what we read about in the book of Revelation? Nibiru/the destroyer. Again, it matters not what its called. What matters is the bible tells us exactly whats going to happen. If the bible says it, its better than written in stone guaranteed to happen.

"So what" you ask?

So, what kind of lives should we be leading today if we suspect that a destroyer is inbound to the earth? What should our relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord be like when we suspect that a destroyer is inbound to the earth? What does the bible say? What is the Spirit saying to the churches today?

The Lord speaks to men in many different ways at different times. The Lord tells us "my sheep know my voice.(John 10:27)" One of the ways this writer "hears" the Lord is through resonance. Its a musical term:

Whenever the vibrations of one object cause a second object to start vibrating, the second object is said to be resonating with the first, and its vibrations can be called sympathetic vibrations

http://cnx.org/content/m13537/latest/

What has been resonating in this writers spirit? The idea that what is significant today is above our heads, literally. When the Lord told us to "look up" when all these things begin to happen, He meant it, literally. Something is going on "out there" in space and whatever it is, its not going to be good for this world. So what? So we need to know what the Lord is saying to us today. What does this writer believe the Lord is saying today? Matt 24 and 25 nails it. We are in the days of Noah and Lot all over again. The parable of the virgins and the faithful servant from Matt 25 nails it. Thats where we are, and thats what we should be zeroing in on.

Time is short. This statement has been written here for 5 or so years now, and that may seem like a long time to men, but on the Lord's timeline what is 5 years? 5 years doesn't even register on an eternal timeline. So what? So as we maintain readiness and watchfulness we also must be patient. The foolish virgins were not prepared to be patient and they "left" their ready and watching positions to "go buy oil" for their lamps which also just happened to be the exact time the Lord showed up to call the Bride to the wedding.

Mark 13 tells us it will be good for the servant who is found watching and ready at the door when his Lord returns for Him. Let us pray that we will be found watching and ready when our Lord returns. Let us pray for all the brothers, our families and ourselves that we may all be counted worthy of the escape from all that is 100% guaranteed so that we may stand before the Son of man.

There is an escape from all coming, thats not my opinion, it is biblical fact. The Lord ordered us to pray that we may be counted worthy to escape ALL of whats about to happen. How many people calling themselves Christians today not only do not follow this command, but also teach others not to pray for the escape from all? What will happen to these people who know they should pray for escape but refuse to do it and teach others to disobey the command as well? What is the reward for willful disobedience?

I am no mans judge. In Matt 7 we are told "judge not." Although I am no mans judge, I would like to analytically evaluate some peoples positions and what their reward (or not) may be based on the Word of God. I would not deny any man entrance into heaven and I would not prevent a single person from leaving this wicked world in the rapture, thats my personal position, but it is not the Lord's position. If I were judge, I would have remedial training for quite a few years or some other kind of "get well" plan to prevent anyone from going to hell or missing the escape, but again, I am a man weak and short lived, of what account am I? My opinion counts for nothing.

It is my estimation that things will not go well for those who teach and preach a "pre-wrath" or "post-trib" rapture. As we believe, so we receive, that comes from the Lord's own mouth (Matt 8:13). I believe in a pre-wrath rapture but wrath starts with the first seal of Rev 6 not around the end of the tribulation.

Ezekiel 6:12 He that is far away will die of the plague, and he ...

... will die of the plague, and he that is near will fall by the sword, and he that
survives and is spared will die of famine. So will I spend my wrath upon them

The Lord clearly spells out here ^^ that plague famine and the sword are His wrath being poured out. Remind me again what the seals of Rev 6 are again? Oh yea, famine, war, the sword....hello.

The pre-tribulation escape from all rapture is certainly coming and it could happen any day. The Lord revealed something to me recently about the Feast of Trumpets and the rapture. The Feast of Trumpets is tied to Rosh Hashanah which is a time when the "day or hour" is not known. The moon determines when the first day of the new year will be so we cannot know which day it will fall on. So the unknown day and hour points to the prophetically so far unfulfilled feast of trumpets, and the feast of trumpets points back to an unknown day and hour. Its a double reference or a circular reference. So what does this mean? It means the Feast of Trumpets is a time of remembrance of what will prophetically happen sometime in our future. Its a time marked out every year to remember. The actual fulfillment of this Feast day can occur on any day, an "unknown day" at any time and fulfill the prophetic requirement perfectly.

Whats the short version that explains this?^ If the rapture occurs on any day it will meet the requirements of occuring on an "unknown day." What does that mean for us? Be watching and ready every day. Is watching and ready every day what the Lord told us to do? Re-read the gospels and especially Mark 13, Luke 17 and Matt 24 and you tell me. Brother D is not telling you to watch and be ready, the Lord told you to do it. Any man who tries to tell us not to watch and be ready for the Lord's return today I consider to be a thief, a liar and a murderer. Harsh? Yes. Accurate? Yes.

If there is an escape and it requires faith, obedience to the Lord's command, watching and readiness to be found worthy of it, and some man teaches you not to watch and be ready today causing you to miss the escape which leads to your murder in the tribulation, that would make that man who taught the lie a liar, thief and murderer. Think about it.

this post is too long, but had to get this out there today. Keep the faith grace and peace

The Day Noah Entered the Ark

2011-11-14T15:53:00.007-07:00

We are cruising along during these pre-flood days. There have been many warnings to the people of the world, but each warning tends to make those without "eyes that see" more dull. The people of the world have been put to sleep. We have been watching the worldwide trainwreck occur in slow motion now for so long that many people have lost patience to watch and wait.

What are you talking about brother D? I'm talking about watching for the arrival of the Lord of Hosts. I'm talking about watching and waiting like the wise virgins of Matt 25. In Luke 17 we read this:

Luke17:26“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. 27People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

Then the flood came....when? After Noah entered the ark. What happened right up till the day Noah entered the ark? Business as usual, kind of like today. The people living in the world today have a benefit over the people of Noah's day. Warning after warning after warning has been issued to the people of this world over a period of many years. When the Lord does show up, it will not be without warning because the drumbeat of warning has been nonstop for those who are listening.

For many people in the world today, the drumbeat of bad news is just that, news. For many people life goes on, planting, building, buying, selling, eating drinking etc. Things may be a bit tighter than they used to be, but overall life is business as usual. This in itself is a proof for the veracity of the Word of God.

Things have looked like they would collapse under their own weight for a long time now, but "business as usual" goes on. If the Word of God is correct and we know it is, then things will continue to go on this way until those in this world who are found worthy like Noah enter the "ark" and then the flood comes to take away those who are left.

We have had signs of every kind imaginable, everything from right in front of your face economic collapse to signs in the heavens (like Rev 19 playing out in the stars this past September). The world sees it all as one reason after another to scoff and harden their hearts. Those who are watching see it all as mounting evidence that something we know is coming is about to take place.

This leads me to something the Lord shared with me today that I guess you could categorize as a worthiness check for what we read in Matt 7:13-28 and Luke 21:36. Not everyone who calls Jesus Lord is going to be called into the ark or allowed into heaven before or after the rapture of the Church. I am no man's judge, but the Word who is the Lord Jesus judges all things. That Word says there is a narrow path and a small gate that leads to life (Matt 7:14). There is a worthiness factor. Here's where the Lord's mental dialogue with me today comes in. It has to do with Jesus "knowing" you.

Read this:

Matt 7:²¹ “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. ²² Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ ²³ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

Have you ever wondered what the Lord meant there? How can a God who knows everything tell many people that He doesn't know them? Obviously He is not referring to a mental knowledge of who a person is. The Lord "knows" as in knowledge knowing -all things. So what kind of "knowing" is the Lord talking about?

Many years ago, if a man was to say he "knew" a woman in the proper context, it would mean he was intimate with her. That man would have been talking about sex but we are not. What we are talking about is intimacy, and that with the Lord. Why are we here on this earth? To get to know the Lord, and to decide whether or not we want to love the Lord. That's it in a nutshell. We are deciding in this life whether or not we want an intimate eternity long relationship with the Lord. Those who do want this relationship become intimately close with the Lord, thus the Lord "knows" us who have been in this type of relationship with Him.

In this sick world people read or hear intimate and they hardwire over to sex. That's Satan's cheap replacement diversion and imitation of what the Lord has called us to.

If we want to be counted worthy of the escape from all that is coming, and if we want to be counted worthy of the kingdom of heaven then we need to be in the kind of relationship with the Lord where He "knows" us, and we "know" Him. It's not the kind of "knowing" this sick world practices. If it was, many many more people would be entering the kingdom of heaven through that small gate that leads to life. As we know from the bible, only a few will make it (Matt 7:14). This was written to us to cause us to think hard about the choices we are making.

We have been called to an intimate very close relationship with the King of Kings. Many people today calling themselves Christians do not "know" the Lord Jesus anymore than they "know" the president of the US, or France or Spain. They know who these people are, but they don't "know" them.

If we don't know the Lord Jesus personally and intimately, do we really think we are going to make it through the small gate?

Although the beginning of the end seems to drag on and on and on, the end is certainly coming. The earth itself is telling us that it is groaning under the weight of the sin that is upon it. Earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, mass animal death, signs in the heavens and last but not least we all can literally feel in our bones that something is not right and things are changing for the worse. Death and the shadow of death are upon the land. Time is short. What does that mean? I don't know.

This year has seen a number of warnings, all of which the world has laughed off and ridiculed. Next year is more than some mythology out of the mayan calendar. We know for a hard scientific fact that we are coming into alignment with the galactic plane. Whats going to happen when we line up? Nobody really knows. Today's "science" is a joke. Everyday I'm reading expert after expert saying "I don't know" when asked the hard questions about whats going on in the skies above us.

People can and do debate what this all means. What they cannot debate is the objective evidence we see with our own eyes in the world around us now. Something is not right and something is causing that "not right" to happen. I dont have to prove to anyone "what" is causing anything, all I have to do is point to the overwhelming evidence in the world around us. What is the Lord going to use in creation to cause what we read in the book of Revelation to happen? We don't really know. Nibiru? Planet X? Asteroids? Comets? Galactic alignment? Who knows. Does it really matter? Not really. Regardless of what the cause is, the effect will be what we read from the mouths of the prophets and the book of Revelation.

What is the Lord saying to us today? Watch and warn. Be ready, be patient. Take nothing for granted, give thanks and rejoice always. Be found as faithful servants and wise virgins when the Master arrives for us. Think hard about how well you know the Lord. Do you "know" Him? and more importantly does He "know" you?.....These things are what this unworthy servant hears the Lord saying today.

It appears that the window for the asteroid passing between the earth and moon has closed and it has passed harmlessly. Business as usual for another day is what was most likely.

I've seen some video evidence of warnings in the sky relating to Nibiru/planet X whatever. I have no doubt that something, whatever we might want to call it is on the way to punch planet earth and its inhabitants in the face. It has been said here many times, we already know for a fact what is coming. Open the book of Revelation around Revelation 6 and start reading. Every Word in there will be fulfilled to the letter. We also know that our Lord has judged the creation through the creation in the past, for example, the flood in Noahs day, drought, famine etc.

We know what is coming, but we do not know when. Although we do not know when, we see signs all around us that tell us time is short. These signs have been around us now for years and many are growing faint. Some have given up waiting. What a terrible mistake. The parable of the virgins was given to us as an example. We must be the wise virgins who bring extra oil to watch for the Bridegroom and be prepared to wait for Him however long He tarries.

The Lord determines the time of things. His time and no other determines when the Restrainer will be removed. Till then we must learn the lesson of the virgins and the parable of the profitable servants, both in Matthew 25.

Lets be found doing those things we know we should do while we wait with great patience for our Savior from heaven. We are dearly loved.

11/6 Just as it was in the days of Noah

2011-11-06T06:51:00.003-07:00

Matt 24:42Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

If there is a Word the Lord has for us today, I believe it is the Word above. Watch and be ready. In an hour that you think not, the Son of man cometh.

That and this really stirs my spirit today:

Matt 24:36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

We are in the "days before the flood" today. And our Lord tells us that just exactly as it was in the days of Noe so shall it be when the Lord comes. How did things go down in Noe's day? Noe entered the ark THEN the flood came.

There is a day coming when those who are counted worthy in this world will enter their "ark" and then once again the flood will come. How can we be 100% sure this will happen? The Lord God has spoken the Words Himself. Just as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be when the Lord comes back for us.

As I am writing this, the Lord just dropped another interesting distinction into my mind. Here it is:

Mark 1333Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

When we talk about the Son of man coming back to earth, some people tell us its the second coming and not the rapture. They are wrong. Notice the wording in the scripture above as well as the parallel descriptions in Luke and Matt. The Lord left "his house." See that? What is the Lord's house? Where does the Lord live here on earth? Answer.......in us. We are the house of God. When the Son of man returns He is returning to and for US. We are His house. Notice the Lord does not say He is coming back to the entire world. Notice He does not say He is coming back for "them." He says He is coming back to His house and His servants. That would be us friends.

And thus we have another piece of irrefutable proof in support of the pre-tribulation rapture. Noah and Lot were removed before the destruction of their day. They were physically removed to safety. The bible says that Noah in particular was lifted up "high above the earth."

Genesis 7:17 For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth ...

For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and as the waters
increased they lifted the ark high above the earth.

Where will our place of safety be in the rapture? Where will we meet the Lord? In the clouds....and where is that? High above the earth. Just as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be when the Son of man returns.

What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Watch and be ready. Pray in obedience to the Word given to us in Luke 21:36 that all of us who believe may be counted worthy of the escape from all that is surely coming so we can stand before the Son of man.

Be patient, and be ready. Be ready to stay and ready to go. I expect the Lord to return for us any day now. I pray that the Lord will give us His strength and patience to live this life torn between the need to stay here and press on with our work while we await our Redeemer from heaven.

Keep the faith, grace and peace

ELE-nin Again?

2011-11-05T06:50:00.005-07:00

So, the comet did nothing but we all know the name ELENIN at this point. The comet is gone but the name lives on. What's in this name? Extinction level event? Maybe. A straightforward reading of the name seems to also point to ELEven NINe or November 9th. Whats going on 11/9? An asteroid is inbound (2005 YU55) between the earth and the moon.

Why mention this? Because we were told to "look up" when all the things Jesus told would happen begin to happen. Look up means we are staring at the skies. We expect our Lord to descend to the clouds and call us up. We dont know when this will happen but we know that we should be looking up right now. Do I expect the rapture on 11/9? I expect the rapture every day....We were told to be like servants waiting for their master to return from a long journey. We were told to be watching and ready-every day.....

Who knows what if anything will happen this next week. The highest likelihood is that nothing whatsoever out of the ordinary will take place. In spite of the high likelihood that nothing out of the ordinary will happen, we must be ready for the possibilities of our day. What is highly improbable is absolutely possible.

Our job is to be watching and ready. This believer takes at face value the Lord's command to "look up" both literally and figuratively. There will be some serious signs in the sky tied to the time of Jacob's trouble. Things are absolutely not right with the earth. Nibiru or planet x or whatever you want to call it is inbound. The scoffers can scoff all they want. We may not get the name right of the "what" causing all these planetary changes but we can certainly see the changes themselves.

If someone were to blindfold you and punch you in the face knocking all your teeth out, how ignorant would it be of someone to say "you didnt get punched in the face because you cant identify who punched you"!? That's absolutely stupid, and yet its the very argument being used against those who know something is coming towards us in space. The earth is getting "punched in the mouth" but we have blindfolds on, we cannot identify who or what exactly is doing the "punching."

Volcanoes, earthquakes and more animal deaths combined with the ongoing pollution of the world by fukushima and the worlds economic woes are enough evidence to tell you that we who live on planet earth today are walking a fine line. The line is a line of separation between the "pre-flood" days of Noah and the days of temptation, trial and tribulation to come.

This writer believes that the Lord Himself is holding things together in these last days. It is a divine miracle that the entire world has not yet collapsed into a demonic apocalypse. The Restrainer is still at work in this world today, glory to God. If you wondered in the past how we could come this far and still be living in "pre-flood" days, then you are like me. The only way it is possible is through the Lord's forbearance and mercy.

The Lord's patience means salvation to somebody each and every day. Only the Lord knows how patient He has been with me over the years as I did stupid thing after dumb thing after self destructive thing after foolish thing and deserved death for it all. But the Lord's patience and grace were more than enough to turn me around (thanks be to our Lord Jesus Christ).

Be watching and ready for a potentially earth changing event next week but realize that it is highly likely to be just another ordinary week. The Lord has been strangely silent with me over the past few weeks. I ask Him daily, "what are you saying to us Lord?" and "what is your Spirit saying to the Churches?" And lately I haven't heard much. What I did get last week is a short instruction that we need to be thankful and patient and hang on. Continue to do the things we know we should do while the Master is "away."

This attitude toward today and the days ahead is what sets the pre-tribulation rapture belief head and shoulders above the rest. We are watching and ready for the Lord's return TODAY and every day while all the rest are out playing word games with the Word of God which will certainly burn them in the end.

Keep the faith, be watching and ready.

Signs

2011-10-30T07:09:00.008-07:00

One of the biggest clues to this writer that all was not right with the world was the large wave of animal deaths we saw a year or so ago. They came one after another after another, then after awhile they stopped. Now they appear to be on the rise again:

http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/Canada/20111022/dead-birds-wasaga-beach-111022/

The wave of animal deaths was taking out some of everything, birds, fish, mammals you name it. Combine the animal deaths with what is going on with the economy, with the ongoing nuclear pollution of the world at fukushima, volcanoes, earthquakes, weird weather worldwide, satellites falling from space one after another, the US cancelling the space program, and last but certainly not least the world's spiritual condition, you have enough evidence to say with some objectivity "all is not business as usual with the world today". Disaster is coming on a scale unimaginable.

The book of Revelation tells us clearly what this disaster is going to look like. When world events start to mirror what we know the tribulation/time of Jacob's trouble is going to look like we should certainly up our watchfulness and preparedness to meet our Lord Jesus Christ.

What is going to happen we already know. When these things are going to happen is the real question. This writer expected the Lord to arrive years ago and the tribulation to start, yet the world has continued in its "days before the flood" state.

Luke 1726“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. 27People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

There is a day coming when we will be like Noah and Lot. We will "enter the ark" and "leave Sodom" and on that very same day, the flood will come and destroy those who remain on the face of the earth. The Restrainer will be removed and all hell will break loose. We were told that there is an escape coming and we should pray that we are counted worthy of it (Luke 21:36). We were told that the coming of the Son of man will be exactly like it was in the days of Noah and Lot. Not kind of like the days of Noah and Lot, exactly like the days of Noah and Lot. Our Lord does not use words haphazardly. Each and every Word of the Lord was used purposefully and with infinite intelligence so we should not take them lightly.

This world is in a death spiral, which is a natural result of its sin. Sin results in what? Death. Simple right? As we watch this world edge closer and closer to the day the tribulation starts, we should be watching and ready. We should also be very patient. I already told you things have gone on much longer than I suspected they would. Whats the lesson there? Its the lesson of Rev 3:10 and Matt 25. Those who keep the "Word of the Lord's patience" will be kept from the hour of trial. The parable of the virgins in Matt 25 tells us that the virgins prepared to wait (they brought extra oil in their lamps just in case it took awhile) were allowed into the wedding.

What is the Lord saying to us today? Be watching and ready and patient. Be ready to leave immediately and be ready to stay indefinitely. A very tough job which is why many wont make it (I pray that I am wrong-but read Matt 7:13-28).

Something to be aware of that the Lord has reminded me of in recent days. Whatever it is you are doing for the Lord, that is, employing your talent etc as a good slave/servant, it does not take the place of personal time with Him. Our "alone time" with the Lord where its one on one with Him is first. You can be "doing" all kinds of great things for the Lord but if you are not maintaining the relationship with time spent alone with Him, you (and I) are falling way short of the mark set for us.

What is this life on earth about? Why are we here? Relationship with God Almighty. This life is about preparing to spend eternity with the Lord our God. If we are not developing the relationship, why not?

Be patient, be watching and be ready. Probability tells us that days like today will go on indefinitely into the future. Probability tells us that "pre-flood" days will go on forever. The Word tells us that probability will be confounded some day in the future and most people will not be ready for it. Lets not be part of that many. When the Lord arrives, let us be able to say "Welcome Master, we've been expecting you!"

Keep the faith, grace and peace

Watch and Be Ready

2011-10-26T16:20:00.011-07:00

http://www.wunderground.com/wximage/viewsingleimage.html?mode=singleimage&handle=thebige&number=5374&album_id=787&thumbstart=0&gallery=EDITORSPICK#slideanchor

"Northern lights" have been spotted across the entire southern and central U.S. over the past week. Photos of these lights are all over the internet. When I read what the "experts" have to say about where these lights are being seen, the words used are "baffled" "mystified" "puzzled," in other words the 'experts' are clueless, or deliberately not reporting the reason behind northern lights appearing all over the south/central U.S.

Do we really need experts to tell us that something is not right here? It is obvious that everything is not business as usual. And where are we seeing these lights in strange places? "Up" in the sky, the heavens. Something is causing this strange anomaly. Do we need to know "what" is causing this? No, its enough to know for certain that its happening. We know for a fact that what is happening in the skies above our heads is not normal.

Does it matter that Nibiru or Planet X or asteroid this or comet that is causing strange things to happen? No, what matters is that every Word written in the bible is coming to pass just as it was written. The Word of God is a rock, every Word in it is true.

We must be watching and ready for our Lord to appear. He may show up tonight, or 30 years from now. Either way we need to be watching and ready. There is no doctrine that can confound this. Readiness 24/7 cannot be "one upped" by anybody. Those who teach and preach a delayed or "sometime later" arrival of our Lord will likely be caught unprepared just like the foolish virgins of Matt 25.

The Lord gave me a slightly disturbing thought a few days ago. Basically He said that the church has no problem ridiculing Israel for missing the Lord's first appearance on this earth. "How could they not see" they ask incredulously. These same people who cannot fathom why Israel missed the Lord's appearance on earth will themselves not recognize the Lord when He calls those found worthy up into the clouds in the rapture. Most of Israel did not recognize the Lord when He first showed up. Most of the church will miss the Lord when He next shows up. Who is this apostate church to mock anyone? Why that amazed look on their faces?

The Lord asks us today:

Luke 18:6And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. 7And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 8I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”

If He does not find faith on earth, what will be the consequences? The world has been put to sleep by the enemy, and a gospel of grace (once saved always saved) that has become a license to sin. It has been put to sleep by a doctrine of devils telling you not to watch or be ready for the Lords return today. "Don't be foolish" they say, "theres plenty of time" they say. "This has to happen" or "that has to happen first before the Lord can arrive" they say.

Read the Words of the Master carefully brothers. Our Lord did NOT put qualifiers in His command to watch and be ready. If He said to do it, He meant now. Not tomorrow, not the next day, not next year, NOW.

This writer has no remote idea when the Lord will arrive for us. None, not even an inkling. This writer does however have a fire burning inside that says WATCH and BE READY. Take it for what its worth.

grace and peace

'Many Dead' As 7.2 Quake Shakes Turkey

2011-10-23T07:15:00.005-07:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45005013/ns/world_news-europe/#.TqQhzt7qP1Q

They are reporting this earthquake but they didnt even bother to report on the 7.4 magnitude earthquake in the Pacific earlier this week

http://earthquake-report.com/2011/10/21/second-massive-kermadec-islands-earthquake-in-4-months-time/

Guys, a 7+ earthquake is a monster. Do you remember what the 7+ did to Haiti a couple years ago? These 7.0+ earthquakes are now popping off routinely.

So what brother D, what does that have to do with Christianity? It has to do with the time of the end. If you read the book of Revelation you will see massive earthquakes the likes of which this world has never seen. The Lord, as always, appears to be using the creation to judge the creation. The increase in the number of very large quakes, that is, 7.0 or greater shows us a progression toward to precise fulfillment of the Words written by our Lord.

We know whats going to happen. The Lord has told us everything in advance. We can expect an exact to the letter fulfillment of every Word written in the Bible. If we know whats coming in the future, and we know where we are now, we can draw a line from here to there and know generally what to expect. For this reason, when this writer sees warnings from the powers that be that an extinction level event is coming (or many), this writer pays attention. Why? Certainly not because this world has said something, but because the words coming out of their mouth match what we know for a fact is going to happen, that is, extinction level events are on the way.

Ok, again so what? So what if extinction level events are coming? If the tribulation is about to start, then our redemption draws nigh and we should be looking up, watching and ready for our Savior the Lord Jesus Christ to appear.

Something is causing all these earth shaking events. Do we have to correctly identify exactly what is causing them? Its Nibiru, no its ELEnin, no its the expanding earth theory, no its something else....does it really matter what is causing it? Not really. What matters is, its happening and thats undeniable fact. Events are progressing exactly as the Bible said they would, and that matters.

We as servants of the Lord should observe what is happening in the world with all gravity. We were told to be watching and ready today and each and every day thereafter for the return of the Lord. We were told to be doing those things that wise servants would do. Let us be found like the wise servants, with oil in our jars and prepared to wait for our Lord but also prepared to leave this earth immediately.

These large earthquakes and volcanoes that are erupting are telltale signs of something like Nibiru exerting its influence on the earth. Large earthquakes and volcanoes change lives permanently, just ask the people of Japan. I believe the Lord spoke a few words to me yesterday, and one of the ideas from those words was that as time progresses now we must walk closer and closer to Him in moment to moment dependence on Him for guidance and survival.

Read your bibles. Read about men like Moses who "walked with God." We should be like them. We should be walking with our Lord God in faith and dependence every moment of every day now. We know whats coming but we dont know when it will happen. This world is playing timing games to pull everyone off track. They say that since people cant nail down the day things are going to happen, then nothing is going to happen? How foolish. But thats their game and it is working on many people.

Famine, war, earthquakes and plague are coming to this earth. If you look around you will see that they are already here! Apparently what we see today are just shadows of whats coming. The Bible is very clear, the events that are coming will melt mens hearts right in their chests from fear. I dont think this world has even a remote idea of whats coming or their attitudes and actions would be radically different.

What do I believe the Lord spoke to me yesterday? We require moment to moment walk and communication and dependence on Him today. That and be patient. The things the Lord has done in this writers life over the past 3 year lead him to believe on one hand we dont have long to wait and on the other hand we still have to wait patiently. It seems almost contradictory and in a sense it is but thats what we have been called to, ready to stay and ready to go.

Be patient. Probability tells us nothing out of the ordinary will happen today or tomorrow or on Dec 21, 2012 or on any other day, but ask the people of Turkey today about what can happen when possibility strikes and you didnt expect it. The United States has not yet been on the receiving end of any of these 7.0+ quakes lately. This writer believes the reason why is something special (not in a good way) is being prepared for her.

This writer believes he has not seen or heard a true prophet of God in his entire lifetime and the reason for that is, he believes what is going to happen has already been foretold in the Bible. Does the Lord really need to tell us again what He has already told us in His Word? The only thing we dont know today is the timing of it all. When we see storm clouds above its reasonable to expect rain. We must be watching and ready for the Lords return today. We must also patiently wait for however long the Lord plans to tarry in the future. This is the difficult task we have been given and it does require suffering on our part. No surprises right? In this life we will have tribulation, but not THE tribulation.....

Keep the faith, be patient. Remember the Lord at all times in everything you do. Trust Him, praise Him all the time. Let His praise be in your mouth continually as you await your redemption from heaven. These are the thoughts this writer is impressed with today. grace and peace

Where There is Smoke, There is Fire

2011-10-22T08:04:00.002-07:00

Luke 21:25And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh

In the past many people have predicted things would happen that never came to pass. Most of the time, like with Campings second failed prophesy, people let them go with a laugh of scorn, but they let it go. I find the reaction to ELE-nin passing to be interesting in this regard. "They" refuse to let it go. The mockers and scorners etc are beating the ELE-nin thing to death. "But nothing happened" they say. How about stop being so short sighted I say.

We know for a fact whats coming to this earth some day in the future. Read the book of Revelation and the Words of the prophets. Signs in the sun moon and stars and mens hearts failing them for fear. These things ARE coming, they are biblical fact, written in stone. What the Lord God has said, will absolutely positively certainly come to pass.

With regards to ELE-nin, I say to whoever came up with it THANKS FOR THE WARNING. "They" sent a warning at least in part to get people off track and off the case of what is really coming. What is coming will appear in the skies, in outer space. Read the Word of God for yourself, it is very clear. Read Revelation 6 for yourself. An extinction level event IS coming. The opening seals of Revelation 6 will erase 2 billion souls from the face of this earth. Again, thats not speculation, its biblical fact.

The ELE-nin phenomenon was likely meant to put people back to sleep. "See, nothing happened" they say. Nothing has happened yet....keep watching, be ready. Not for ELE-nin or Nibiru or whatever, but for the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ.

And again, thanks for the warning whoever came up with the name ELE-nin. I take the Word of God seriously, and the Word says that this world will face the extinction of billions of souls at some point in the future. We should be watching and ready for the Lord to return and when whoever they are publish warnings, it only motivates some of us to continue watching and readiness for the pre-tribulation rapture of the church, which means the arrival of Jesus Christ our Lord in the skies.

A warning to some of us is a blessing. "They" know whats coming which is why they are digging holes in the earth to hide themselves. They will try to hide themselves in "that day" but it will be useless. Who can hide from an all seeing all powerful God?

Continue to watch for the arrival of our Lord. Be ready for His return. As always, in patience be ready to spend another 20 years on this earth waiting for the Lord to return. Ready to stay, ready to go....thats us.

grace and peace

Watch Ye Therefore

2011-10-20T13:24:00.011-07:00

Mark 13:33Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

If I could distill down in the fewest words possible what it is my spirit is impressed with from the Lord, it would be the passage above. Watch and pray. We are servants who have been given work while the Master is away. We were told that we would not know when the Master would return so we must watch for Him. While we are watching we are to be doing those things that good and faithful servants know they should do.

Watch watch watch. This world is trending toward destruction in every way. Can't you see it? Many cannot see it. Everything is failing, and its all happening at the same time. So what? The so what is, Jesus our Master is coming back soon. What does soon mean? I have no idea. This world is trending toward the kind of destruction written about by the prophets and throughout the book of Revelation. What does that mean? The Lord is coming back soon.

This writer has pointed out to you that things appearing to be on their way (like massive earth upheaval caused by other bodies in outer space) could cause the kind of destruction we read about in the book of Revelation. So what? So, if that kind of destruction is on the way, and it doesnt matter what the cause is (elenin nibiru 2012 whatever), then our Lord Jesus is right at the door. Thats the point, the Lord is near and we should be watching for Him, not that one thing or another is the cause of this worlds destruction. We mention the latter to keep you focused on the former, understand?

Things are not 'business as usual' in this world anymore for the aware observer. Things have not been 'normal' for a long time now. Because the changes have come so gradually, in such slow motion, most people continue living in fantasy land. It doesnt matter what is causing all this slide toward destruction, what matters is, its happening. So ELE-nin did nothing, so Nibiru does nothing, so Y2K is a dud, so 2012 is a year like all the rest, so what? We are watching for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ, thats what and that will continue to be the what until He arrives.

If Noah saw the storm clouds moving in before the Lord told him to get into the ark, he probably would have stayed close to the ark, wouldn't you? I would. The Lord has told us everything beforehand. We KNOW whats coming and whats coming isnt pretty. When we see it coming from miles away, should we not stand close to our ark (the Lord Jesus)? You would have to be mentally impaired not to stay close to the ark of safety with the storm clouds moving overhead.

The warnings you have read here over the years are not about economic collapse or ELE-nin or Nibiru or whatever, they are about watching and being ready for the return of the Lord. We were told to be watching and ready, are you doing that? It matters not which strategy you choose to use in order to keep yourself focused on the return of the Lord. What matters is you are found watching and ready when the Lord returns.

This world is full of mockers. They mock our watching and readiness as if we were fools. How many so called christians are telling people today not to watch for the Lords return because according to them "it cant happen yet?" Those people are fools (The Lords Words not mine-Matt 25). Not only are they fools, many of them are enemies. Anyone who tells me to disobey a direct order from the Lord I must consider an enemy to my soul. If the Lord told us to watch and be ready without any qualifiers, that means DO IT NOW. Not tomorrow, not during a sabbatical year, not at mid-trib, not at the end of the tribulation, DO IT NOW.

We have told to be watching and ready now, and each and every day in the future until the Lord arrives for us. That is biblical fact. We have been told to be patient like the wise virgins who brought oil along with their lamps. We have been told not to be surprised that we suffer like soldiers. It will be well for those servants who are found doing what they were told to do when the Lord arrives.

This world is moving like a freight train down the tracks of time toward the time of Jacob's trouble, also known as the tribulation. The Lord has clearly stated that there will be an escape from all thats about to happen and we should pray for it (Luke 21:36). Noah escaped all. Lot escaped all. Some of us will escape all if we are found worthy.

How much longer this world can circle the drain before going down, I know not. It is well within the Lords power to keep this world afloat for years to come if He so desires. This requires patience. The Lord could also pull the plug on this world immediately setting into motion the most horrific days this world has ever and will ever see. This requires readiness, NOW.

We must be ready to stay here on this earth, patiently suffering for however long it takes for our Lord to arrive. We must also be ready to leave immediately without a backward glance at this sick and sinful world. What is the Lord saying to the churches today? Watch and be ready. Do those things wise servants would do in their Lord's absence.

Watching and Ready

2011-10-16T05:55:00.004-07:00

In September 2011 we had a number of warnings centered around the Feast of Trumpets. For example, remember the events around the constellation virgo that took place exactly on 9/29? It was Revelation 12 playing itself out in the heavens. We also had comet ELE-nin moving through the solar system. Neither one of these events proved to be anything destructive in and of themselves. Does that mean we write everything off to business as usual and carry on as if the end of the world were not upon us?

What we have seen this past month and for years now really are a series of warnings. Open your bible and read for yourselves how many warnings Jesus Himself gave us. How much of the bible is dedicated to warning the people of the Lord? Alot. We have been warned to be watching and ready for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. Signs are everywhere that the day of the flood will be upon this world soon.

Go re-read Matt 24 and Luke 17 and what you will see is the Lord warning us. We are told:

37But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

What's the warning we are given here? The warning is that in the days of "business as usual" that were before the flood things were happening just as they are today. Then what happened? Noah entered into the ark. Then what happened? The flood came and took them all away. So, at least one of the lessons in this warning is, dont get too complacent in these business as usual days. Don't be one of those who "knew not" until the flood came. Be watching and be ready for the Lord's return.

We as servants of the Lord do not have to guess what is coming. We don't have to wonder whether days will continue in a business as usual fashion. We dont have to wonder whether doom on an unimaginable scale is coming upon this world. The book of Revelation makes it clear. The words of the prophets make it clear. The sins of this world are stacked up into the heavens, and there is no repentance. Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. The Lord and His Word have been declaring this from the day that He first set foot on this earth.

Doom on a scale that no writer can even imagine is coming to this world. Days that are so dark that mens hearts will fail them are coming to this world.

So what you ask? So those of us who know with certainty whats going to happen, should warn those who "know not." A warning is a blessing, not a burden. We are attempting to pluck souls from the fire that awaits them if they do not repent and return to their faithful Creator.

We are not out of the woods yet this year. Earthquakes and volcanoes are popping all over the earth. The USGS has been caught red handed numerous times deleting data so as not to alarm the public. I saw one writer attempt to downplay our days by saying "the data doesnt really reflect an increase in earthquakes" so its all just a false alarm. Really? Dude, wake up and get a clue..please. Check your sources before you attempt to put people back to sleep. My guess is these so called "christian" writers are disinformation agents. Who cares who they work for, their message is a lie.

When disinformation is everywhere, we must be spiritually sensitive. What does the bible say? What is the Lord impressing on my spirit? What direction does the Lord have me looking these days? These are the questions we should all be asking ourselves.

We were told to be watching and ready for the Lord's return. The Lord did not give us permission to stop watching whenever we want. We can stop watching for the Lords return when we are standing face to face with Him.

The Lord uses the creation to judge the creation. He has used locusts, famine, flood, disease, etc to judge the creation in the past. Which parts of the creation will the Lord use in the future. I am not sure, but based on what we know is going to happen the arrival of something like Nibiru/planet X appears to be a good guess. Why even talk about this? because the arrival of something like Nibiru also means the arrival of the Lord in the clouds for us. We have proven that the rapture of the church will be pre-tribulation. When we see tribulation like events right on our doorstep, shouldnt we be even more watchful and ready for the Lords return?

The powers that be on this world are very very interested in whats going on out in space. Why is that? Signs in the sun, the moons, the stars. Even the devil believes the bible is true, and he trembles. If the bible says something is going to happen, the devil and his minions know for sure its going to happen, and they unlike most of the world are preparing for it...

It is this writers opinion that something like Nibiru/planet x/whatever is on its way in to close proximity with the earth. Thats why google sky and others have cropped out large portions of space for us not to see whats out there. The arrival of this thing will also mean large scale destructive events for the earth, tribulation like events. That means the pre-tribulation rapture of the church is not far away.

Now to caveat. We must prepare our minds to be on this earth another 20-30 years or more. Of dates and times brother, we need not write you...remember? Is it possible that the Lord will tarry for years more? Yes, it is possible. Revelation 3 tells us to keep the Word of His patience. We must be patient. We are told to accept suffering like good soldiers of Jesus Christ. The suffering we endure while we are on this earth is not an unusual thing, it is normal for us and we must bear its burden with grace. The foolish virgins of Matt 25 were not prepared to wait, and they paid for it. We have been called to be wise virgins who bring extra oil for their lamps because they are prepared to wait. We are ready to stay for however long we are called to be here.

We also must be ready to meet the Lord in the clouds in the twinkling of an eye any moment now. We must be ready to go. We must have our affairs in order today to leave this place without a single look back. Our hearts and minds and spirits must be detached from this world today. Where our treasure is, there our hearts will be also. We must be ready to go.

This is the difficult calling we have been given by the Lord. We are always ready to stay and do His bidding on this earth, and we are always ready to leave this world at a moments notice. Is this easy? Not by a longshot. If it were easy, many many more would enter the kingdom of heaven but we know that most wont make it:

Matt 7:13Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Only a few will make it through the small gate and narrow path that leads to life. The Lord didnt write this to demoralize us. He wrote these things to us to give us a clear picture. Again, the Lord never told us this would be easy:

Luke 14:27And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. 28For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? 29Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, 30Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.

Conclusion

Be ready to stay. Be patient for however long it takes for the Lord to arrive. Be ready to go. Have your hearts prepared to leave everything behind at a moments notice. Be watching and ready through prayer and the Word of God.

On a personal note, the Lord has been answering prayers and even the intentions and desires of my heart even without me asking Him for things lately. He has been incredibly over the top good to this servant recently. That said, I've been asking Him about whats going to happen in the future and I'm not getting anything even remotely dramatic from Him. I am not receiving/hearing/being impressed with any specifics about anything. What I believe the Lord is saying to us today is what I have written to you in this post today. Matthew 24 and 25 stand out as the Lord's Word to us today.

The parable of the virgins and the faithful servant of Matt 25 stand out today. I would tell you as a brother, that we should be on high alert for the remainder of this year and into 2012. The Lord has not given me specifics but I cant shake the thought that we dont have much time left here. My thoughts could be wrong, I guess we'll see. My thoughts could be wrong but the one way you cannot go wrong is to always always always every moment every day be ready for the Lord to return. That is a guaranteed formula for success prescribed for us by the Lord Himself.

P.s. What kind of warning is ELE-nin? Extinction-Level-Event, Nibiru-in-November? I don't know, just be ready okay?

Keep the faith, grace and peace

10/16 Reminder

2011-10-13T14:57:00.011-07:00

ELE-nin reaches perigee this Sunday-Monday (Oct 16-17). The reminder for you is, the Japan earthquake on 3/11/2011 occurred while another comet 2000 PN9 was at earth perigee. Volcanoes are starting to pop left and right which is a primary indicator of stress on the earth's core. El Hierro in the Canary islands is very active and another volcano in Iceland now looks like its going active.

Stress on the earth means we could see earthquakes in addition to volcanic eruptions. So what you ask? We must be ready to meet the Lord today. What happens when major earthquakes and volcanoes go off? Some people don't see the face of the earth the day after. We must be ready to stay here on earth patiently waiting for our Lord and we must be ready to leave tonight to meet Him in the sky. Nobody guaranteed any of us that we will see tomorrow on this earth. Right? So we need to be ready.

What is the Lord saying to us today? I know what He has impressed upon me. Keep the faith. Return to the fundamentals of the faith. Love, be thankful, pray, stay in the Word. Do those things that a wise servant would do when they expect their Lord to appear any minute.

We may have a long time to live like this. Torn between the apparent imminent return of the Lord and the agonizing delay that results in mercy and grace towards those being brought into the kingdom at the last moment. We must keep the Word of His patience (Rev 3:10).

It is likely that nothing out of the ordinary will happen on or around 10/16, at least thats what probability tells us. The warnings all around us tell us that although probability is against it, we better be prepared for the possibility of world changing events any moment now.

Keep the faith. Remain patient, but be ready and watching for the Lord's return. Not because this writer is hitting keys on a keyboard, but because the Word of God is overflowing with warnings to mankind in these last wicked days.....The Lord God Almighty IS coming back; for His true church in love and mercy, and for this wicked world in vengeance and fury.

Grace and peace

ELE-nin 10/16

2011-10-10T08:47:00.007-07:00

On 10/16 Elenin reaches perigee with the earth. Remember that when comet 2000 PN9 was at perigee we had the Japan earthquake and tsunami.

I wanted to post a note here about watching and readiness. We were told to be watching and ready for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. When you see posts about Ele-nin or Nibiru or financial collapse or whatever its going to be in the future, the reason the post was and will be made is because of the return of Jesus Christ for us.

It has been proven time and again that the rapture of the Church will be pre-tribulation. When we see tribulation like events coming at us should we not get excited about the possibility of getting off this wicked world? Yes, we should get excited. The world may get depressed and fearful but we should get excited if we really believe.

We were told that when the Lord comes back for us we better be watching and ready. Whatever it is that you need to do to keep yourself watching and ready for the Lords return, I would suggest you do it. Here, we attempt to be sensitive to the Lord's voice and prompting, and bring to your attention everything and anything that can be used to motivate (in truth) to keep watching and remain ready.

The Lord, I believe, gave me an example of what Satan likes to do to us from my football coaching experience. On the defensive line theres a technique that can be used that is a push pull to yank offensive linemen off balance and get the defense into the backfield. You push the guy and as soon as he pushes back you yank hard and pull him off balance. Thats what Satan is doing to many people in the world today, he is pushing and pulling them off balance.

For example, many people had an eye on ELE-nin thinking it may be part of a scheme where we end up going home with the Lord. So far that hasnt happened, but how many people stopped watching and ceased their readiness preparations this past month or two because business as usual has persisted? This same thing happens over and over again and the bible makes it very clear we must have the patience to wait for however long it takes for the Lord to come back for us and we need to be ready to meet Him right now. We must be ready to go and ready to stay.

Probability tells us that on any given day we will have business as usual because thats what we have on most days. People who are not ready for the possibility of extraordinary events that are certainly coming our way will be caught at a loss. Remember, as it was in the days of Noah and Lot. They knew not that destruction was coming until Noah entered the ark and the flood swept them all away. If we do not patiently continue to watch and be ready, we could end up like those swept away in the flood.

The Lord's warning is very clear:

Mark 13:32“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33Be on guard! Be alert^f! You do not know when that time will come. 34It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.

35“Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”

Matt 24:45Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50The 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,51And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Clearly we do not want to be cut asunder and be appointed a portion with the hypocrites. We MUST continue to watch and be ready. We are not out of the woods yet, but many like to tell us it will be business as usual forever. Every time business as usual continues after a time of heightened awareness on our part, the scoffers come out of the woodwork. The scoffers will soon only scoff at their own shame when the flood that is coming sweeps them away to eternal destruction.

Take a look around at the world today, does it look stable to you? Does it feel stable to you? This place is spinning out of control. Something is adversely affecting the earth in a big way. Sorry Im not a scientist but I do have the sense that our God gave mankind and the Holy Spirit within me. I know when things are light years away from "right." The only thing keeping the world from spinning out of control is the Lords timeline and His mercy.

The Lord is in control and things will proceed when He is ready for them to proceed. This requires faith and patience from us His servants. We must be watching and ready. We must be ready to stay here on this earth as suffering servants for years if need be and we must be ready to be called up into the clouds tonight.

Do not let Satan "push pull" you off balance. This writer has not predicted anything over the years this blog has been up. We have no need for predictions because the bible tells us clearly exactly what is coming...We are watching for what the bible says will happen, thats all. If the Lords Word says something is going to happen, it is 100% guaranteed to happen.

I pray that we are all found worthy to escape all that is about to happen and stand before the Son of Man in accordance with the command given to us in Luke 21:36.

Some of this has been impressed on this writer by the Lord, other parts (I think) are from my own thoughts.

grace and peace
