This is an Opportunity, Not a Crisis, New World Order

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KD3BqK-9ZiU

Bang, here it is, proof positive of what's been going on. In this video you have Kissinger saying that what we have today is not a crisis, its an OPPORTUNITY....for what? To implement the NEW WORLD ORDER. Asked what Obama can do to define his administration, Kissinger said Obamas world wide acceptance and appeal mean right NOW is the opportunity for the New World Order to make its move.

I just posted on this very topic this morning. The crisis we find ourselves in is a manufactured crisis, designed to birth the anti-christ and his aquarian kingdom, also known as the New World Order. The only thing standing between the unveiling of anti-christ and today is the escape (Luke 21:36). The timing of all these things is pretty coincidental I'd say. The crisis is peaking just at the time that a man with world wide appeal is about to take control of the most powerful government in the world. This June will be exactly 3.5 years away from Dec , 2012 when supposedly the world as we know it ends. Does that correspond with the second half of the tribulation, when the GREAT tribulation starts? Will this summer be the beginning of the tribulation and we only have a few months left before the escape and revelation of anti-christ for who he really is?

I think we'll discover the answers to these questions sooner rather than later.

Jesus is our refuge and our king. He alone can provide peace in the midst of the storms of life. Get out of the boat and walk with him out on the water in faith today. Remain in Christ, time is shorter than you think.

Happy New Year and Stop Worrying

Well, we made it to 2009. If the the train we are riding on keeps heading for a brick wall like it is now, 2009 should be a terrible year for the heathen. You however, have been spoken to by the King of Kings and it would be wise to recall some of the words spoken to you:

Matt 6 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Foreclosures and economic calamity have no power in the kingdom of God. We eat from the kings table not the worlds table. This is not hard stuff to grasp, seek first the kingdom of God...that's it..do that and stop worrying. I look forward to this year. The day the escape happens will be more joyous than any lottery a person could win or any other worldly good fortune. Happiness and joy are INTERNAL events, they take place INSIDE OF YOU not out in the world. Where is the kingdom of God? Inside of you..

Luke 17:21 Nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or, 'There
... They can't say, 'Here it is!' or 'There it is!' You see, the kingdom of God is within you." ... or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

When you pray, your focus shifts onto the kingdom of God instead of the world. The destruction of this world does not sadden me in the least, I rejoice over it. As a member of a kingdom that is not of this world, I want our Father's kingdom to come. There are no crooked politicians or wall street bankers in our Fathers kingdom to rape and pillage away our treasure. When our Lord, Jesus Christ comes to rule, he will do it with a rod of iron, and there will be no more (s)elections to see who gets to exploit the poor next, there will only be a righteous judge and his servants. What's not to look forward to? This world makes me sick, in a nausea kind of way. The wickedness and greed and evil and selfishness and intrigues and backstabbing and arrogance and hautiness etc etc etc who wants more of that? Apparently many do. In fact, tv show ratings tell us that the shows with the most elements I listed above will get the best ratings, what does that tell you about people today?

I look forward to being around real christians instead of christians in name only. I look forward to all the lies and fraud perpetrated in the name of God being exposed and destroyed along with every thief who perpetrates it today.
Matt 5
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

If you look at the words I highlighted above and look at todays babylonian form of christianity, you can see how different they are like night and day. Todays churchianity preaches and teaches and adovates through its organizational SYSTEM everything that is opposite of the highlighted words above. Blessed are the peacemakers yet churchianity was the largest advocate of George Bush's wars. Blessed are the merciful yet churchianity has advocated violence toward those at abortion clinincs, yea the abortions are wrong, so you take out a gun and shoot the mother and thats right? Men shall revile you and persecute you and say all manner of bad things against you when you speak the truth, yet todays churchianity gets along quite well in the world. In fact, "Americas pastor" Rick Warren will be blessing Obama here shortly, that shows you just how "reviled and hated" he is...(not). Warren and all those who participate in the babylonian form of jiffy lube christianity today are the problem. They are more guilty than the world or satan for mens souls because the are supposed to represent the way of truth but instead they are a den of vipers, satans children.

Jesus did'nt bad mouth the prostitutes and tax collectors while on earth, he told them to stop sinning. Jesus only bad mouthed ONE GROUP...religious people. Organizational religion had Jesus crucified then and they'd do it again today if they got half the chance. If Jesus walked into 95% of todays so called churches he'd be escorted out the door by ushers or security within minutes. Do you think todays hireling pastors would tolerate some man telling them to dismantle their self glorifying buildings and power? No way. Todays hireling pastor/tax exempt CEO's are just fine with jiffy lube style, so called christian "services" for a fee a couple times a week.

These men make MERCHANDISE out of you...

2 Peter 2:3 And in their greed they will exploit you with FALSE
... And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you:whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth

You are nothing but a shrink wrapped commodity on a store shelf to these men. Yea, they are good speakers and yea..they seem to care...all good con men can do these things. Todays hireling CEO/pastors want your money, now more than ever. Tell one of these guys that you are giving to God by putting every cent you give directly into the mouths of the hungry and homless and you'll see a pastor get red faced mad. That should tell you something. God's word is real food, your pastor does'nt "feed you" God's word does, don't let them lie to you anymore. If you have a bible you can be fed by God's word. The Holy Spirit will teach you, what do you need a hireling con man for?

1 John 2:27
...and you, the anointing that ye did receive from him, in you it doth remain, and ye have no need that any one may teach you, but as the same anointing doth teach you concerning all, and is true, and is not a lie, and even as was taught you, ye shall remain in him.

There it is again, and I was'nt even looking for it REMAIN IN HIM....in Christ in Christ in Christ..two most important words in the Bible.

May the Lord bless you and keep you this year, may his face shine upon you and may he grant you peace. Remain in him...

And be not conformed to this world

Romans 12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

How do we "prove" what the will of God is? Do we "go to church?" to prove the will of God? No Do we go find a "pastor" to tell us the will of God? No. Here's how we "prove" what the will of God is:

1. We DO NOT conform to this world, we remain outsiders to this world, aliens and strangers here

2. We RENEW OUR MINDS, we don't think or speak like the world does, those who speak from the viewpoint of this world are OF THIS WORLD.

1 John 4Little children, you belong to God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 5These people belong to the world. That is why they speak from the world's perspective,[b] and the world listens to them. 6We belong to God. The person who knows God listens to us. Whoever does not belong to God does not listen to us. This is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deceit.

As you might imagine, speaking as one who does not belong to this world, will make you deeply unpopular. People who came preaching the truth in the past were killed, that's how this world treats God's true children. I'm a nobody, but I do attempt to remain "in Christ." People like me are hated because we communicate a message that does not conform to this world, makes sense does'nt it? If only a few are going to be saved (Matt 7:14) should'nt you expect only a few to be speaking the truth in this world? Few people are on the narrow road that leads to life, many are on the road that leads to destruction. If you find yourself on a road populated by many people, perhaps you should stop in your tracks, don't take another step forward, and reconsider the road you are on. If you find yourself on a road that only has a few people on it, that's a good start. The road that leads to life goes through a narrow gate that only a few will find.

I write these things to you from a "fear of the Lord" perspective, not a "looking down on you" perspective. Many are they today who say "don't judge me" or "who are you to say these things to me." Servants of Jesus Christ are charged with the duty to snatch souls out of the fire when and where we can.

Jude 1:23 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; 18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. 22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Those who love you will warn you when they see destruction coming. Are men doing you a favor when they ignore coming disaster and blow sweet nothings in your ear, then one day you wake up with flames licking your pants? Who loves you more, the man you tells you what you need to hear, or the one who tells you what you want to hear?

The bible is a book of WARNINGS. Listening to todays preachers and teachers you'd never know it. One of the key areas of God's Word that remains in the forefront of my thinking is Rev 2-3, I believe that's where we are today. Jesus is speaking to the churches. What is he saying to the churches? 5 out of 7 churches are given stern WARNINGS. If the bible is full of warnings, if the Spirit is speaking warnings to 5 of the 7 churches in Rev 2-3, should'nt the servants of the true Son of God be doing likewise? The Spirit does'nt change, the message of Jesus is the same today as it always was, repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near. The message of the apostate church has'nt changed either, they belittle sin and repentance, and elevate man. The day that is coming (the day of the Lord) is a day where HE ALONE will be exalted, NOT MEN.

Isaiah 2:11 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 For the day of the LORD of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:
13 And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan,
14 And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up,
15 And upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall,
16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant pictures.
17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

That day is coming, and it won't be pretty. The time to humble ourselves is today, not tomorrow, not next week, today. You can do it willingly today, or you can be dragged down unwillingly tomorrow. The Lord alone will be exalted in that day. The so called pastors who have set themselves up as idols for the people by perpetrating the pastoral system, will be humbled. There is mediator between God and man except Jesus Christ now, anyone else who inserts themself in that position is an idolator. All the rich and powerful, all those who have set themselves up in positions of honor and wealth in this world have a day coming that they will really dislike. That day is coming soon. The world is falling apart, can you see it? Darkness falls around us, can you feel it? Yea, I know there are plenty of people saying the end is not nigh, and that in itself is a key indicator that the end IS NIGH, even at our door.

Our God is a shelter from the storm that is coming. There is an escape promised, and we are told to pray for it. Jesus is coming like a thief, many will be caught unprepared. Remember the lessons of the Matt 25 virgins, be ready. When Jesus shows up, it will be too late to "go buy some oil" because your lamps are going out. Your lamps need to be burning, with plenty of oil, in order to be ready when the bridegroom shows up. This means you need to be "in Christ" and Christ needs to be "in You." Christ in you, means the Holy Spirit in you, which means Oil in you, which means you are READY when Jesus shows up. Nobody else can make sure you are "in Christ" but you. You have a part to play. Many today will tell you that you have no part to play, that Jesus does everything and you do nothing. If that were true, then all the commands in the bible that Jesus commanded you were worthless words, spoken for the sake of speaking. Do you suppose that's how the Creator works? He tells you to be obedient just to hear himself speak? Does he tell you to "remain in me" just because he likes the sound of his own voice? Why did he tell you "if you love me, you will obey my commands?" Why did the Spirit bother to write John 15 about the vine and the branches if it will all just meaningless fluff? The bible is overflowing with commands that Jesus told YOU to do, like watch and pray. You play a part in things. If the only thing you accomplished in your time on earth was you prayed ALOT, would'nt that be a serious accomplishment? Prayer is hard work, that's a fact, and that's why many people don't do it, combined with the fact that many don't think prayer can accomplish more than their hands can.

I would match my prayers up against a mans hands any day of the week. Human activity has a place AFTER prayer, but prayer comes first. The hands of man can accomplish little, the hand of God can accomplish anything. I have seen the hand of God move in my life, and its more real than you or me. I have seen a modern day miracle, but its a miracle to me and my family, not to anyone else. Find Jesus today, get "in Him" and stay "in Him." A storm is coming, and the door to our modern day Noah's Ark will close soon.

Hanging by a Thread

People in America really do not understand just how thin and fragile the thread they hang from is. People go on with life as if its business as usual. I guess there are two approaches to living during the end of the world. One approach is to party and/or pretend like nothing bad is happening, hoping that everything will just go away. The other approach is to see things as they are and prepare yourself. Before I go into more of this, let me turn the spotlight around and put it on some current events that should have your eyes open wider than they are already.

1. The entire economy of Iceland has already collapsed
http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/banking_and_finance/article4894904.ece

2. Civil unrest in Thailand causing troops to be deployed, airport closed, tourists stranded etc
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7749510.stm

3. The untra-rich talking about "The end of days"
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/driving/jeremy_clarkson/article5292547.ece

4. The one with the most impact, that you should really be paying attention to, is what's happening in Greece right now. You really need to read this entire article:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/dec/14/greece-riots-youth-poverty-comment

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/dec/14/greece

What's happening in Greece right now could easily be happening right here in America. Do you think the US government understands this? You bet they do, which is why we now have over 20,000 combat hardened Army troops at the disposal of US Northern Command for the sole purpose of "homeland security."

Normal life, whatever that is, is hanging by a thread right now. The rich are trying to find places to hide from the unrest of the unwashed masses. Things are about to turn upside down. This is no reason to become fearful. People ask, what can I do about all the things happening in the world? You can watch, you can pray, and you can be ready. Being ready does not mean building a bunker in your backyard, it means being filled with oil...the Holy Spirit (Matt 25).

During one 24 hour period..one day, the real tipping point for this world will come. That one day is when the true church, the few, the weak, leave this world. Our bibles tell us how things are going to go down:

Luke 17:
27 They 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.
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all

When did the real destruction start in Luke 17? The day that Noe entered the ark, the day Lot left Sodom. When will the coming destruction really start in this world? The day the true church escapes (Luke 21:36/Rev 3:10). The signs are all around us. I find it amazing that people all over the world are looking and talking about the "end of days" scenario playing out all around us, while so called churchianity has its head buried in a hole.

In todays troubling days, you can do alot...you can pray. The faithless within churchianity seem to think praying isn't "doing something." They'd rather have you get involved with some political action committee or things of that nature. Prayer moves mountains. The faithless would have you get more involved with the world, but what does our bible tell us?

1 Peter 4:7
The end of everything is near. Therefore, practice self-control, and keep your minds clear so that you can pray.

Be clear minded and self-contolled so you can do what? So you can pray...

Its not easy for many to be clear minded these days. There are many things competing for your attention. In fact, this whole world is one big distraction machine setup to keep you from praying/focusing on Jesus. We need to watch, we need to pray. Those are simple things, but simple does'nt always mean easy. Satan, the world and your flesh conspire against you, to throw everything including the kitchen sink at you to keep you from praying.

Satan could care less what kind of "getting involved" activities you pursue with the world, he knows the worthlessness of that activity. Satan does get very concerned however when you pray. Keep your minds clear so you can pray. The end of this world is a GOOD thing. We are looking for a new kingdom, our true home where righteousness and justice are found. Where there are no crooked politicians and bankers who rape you. We pray "thy kingdom come, thy will be done" for a reason. This world is a real mess, and men have made it this way. Knowing this, should'nt you take your eyes off of men for a change and put them on someone who can actually do something about this mess? Jesus can fix it all, but he's going to do it his way. Time is very very short for this world. Look around you, the proof is everywhere. When even the heathen are talking about "end of days" conditions around us, should'nt you be paying attention? Wake up, wake up, wake up. Don't allow this world to sing you a lullaby. Be alert, be watching. In our weakness our Lords strength is made perfect.

2 Corinthians 12:9 And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient
... And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strengthis made perfect in weakness

Perhaps this is why the church that is kept from the hour of trial is a WEAK church.

Rev 3:8 I know what you have done. See, I have opened a door in front of you that no one can shut. You only have a little strength, but you have paid attention to my word and have not denied my name.

grace and peace

Stop Pretending

I was reading some remarks that came out of an economics conference recently, where it was said by one economist "stop pretending you understand what's happening in the world today (economically), because nobody understands it."

In one way, I guess he's right, but in another way he's wrong. We can understand what's going on around us. We are hearing "new world order" over and over again these days to the point where I suspect this economic malaise we are in was planned. Looks to me like the agents of the enemy have 'pulled the trigger' to begin the process of implementing their master's government. The dream men have had for controlling the world is an old one. It started with the tower of Babel, and ever since men have been working to make the dream a reality. Babel, Babylon, its all about one world control. The problem these men and their master have had is our Father's Restrainer. Our God has a time in mind for when he will allow events to move forward.

Judging by where we sit today, we have gone beyond the point of no return. To turn around the trainwreck that is happening before our eyes would take a miracle. It would take divine intervention and so far, we do not see an intervention. At a minimum it will take a couple of years to hit bottom, then gradually work our way out of the economic mess we are in today. Here's something else we know about what's going on today, we are on the fast track to the tribulation. We are to be watching, right? Well, when Obama was elected president, that was an indicator that we are on the fast track to the tribulation. When our government decided to pump money into the banks instead of allowing them to 'take their medicine' it is an indicator that we are fast tracking into the tribulation.

At any point along the way, the Lord could have caused men to act in a way that would slow down the train wreck, instead we see the throttle being edged forward each and every day. We are speeding up, not slowing down toward some calamitous end, that end is the tribulation.

One thing, that could change the landscape of our world fairly quickly would be war. As we have seen with Israel in the past, their wars start and end quickly. No other nation on earth gets angels with their infantry brigades. All appearances are, that we are headed for war. War 'fixes' many problems, and it transforms the landscape. War has always been the answer for economies gone sour, so when you have a global economic problem, the answer is a global war.

There are many prophesies in the bible that are yet unfullfilled, many of them involve war. Read the beginning of wrath in Rev 6, it involves widespread death and destruction through war, famine etc. If there is going to be any return to prosperity, either it will be years away or its going to take war to achieve it. From what the Lord has allowed to happen so far, it appears we are headed, without restraint, for war.

Bad times produce people like Hitler and Lenin, but they also turn some people's hearts back to their maker. The tough times this world is going through should be a wake up call, a time to turn back to the Creator, a time of repentance. Tough times can be a blessing or a curse, all depends on how you react to it. Will men use this time to return to the true God or will they remain in idolatry (pastoral system)? There is one mediator between God and man, and it is not your pastor.

The weak church is another indicator of where we sit on the end time timeline. There is no 'end time revival' in the bible.

1 Timothy 4:1 .. But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons

Matthew 24:10 ... Then many people will fall away, will betray one another, and will hate one another.

Fall away from what? You know what. How many will fall away? Many...

What will people pay attention to in these days...our days? Deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons. I always find it amazing that people will admit that we are living in the last days, and yet ignore all the teachings about what we should see during the last days.

If we are in the last days, what does the bible tell us we should see? Deceit, doctrines of demons, rude abusive self involved people who are lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God, apostasy, not revival, and a falling away from the faith. Look around you, can't you see it. Those words are an exact portrait of our days. This world is ready for the anti-christ because most people are just like him. Most people want to play church rather than BE the church. We know a tree by the fruit it bears. When other men, social circles, wealth health and all the other things that lead to vanity take priority over a simple faith in Jesus Christ, we know the days we live in, and the shortness of time.

There is an escape from all thats about to happen, and that escape belongs to a weak church (Rev 3 & Luke 21:36). There is also a church that thinks it has no problems, it thinks it has its act together and yet Jesus has nothing but bad things to say about it, that is the Laodicean church. If the Lord spues you from his mouth, do you really think you are still saved?

Rev 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth

Wake up. Every indication is, we are headed into the tribulation at breakneck speed. Nobody knows what will happen today or tomorrow, but we know how this story ends. We also know what we should be doing, so we best be found doing them when our master shows up.

Grace and peace

Time to the End

Although we do not know exactly where we are on the end time timeline, we do know we are in the end times. As I have said before, the apostasy of the church is a huge marker telling you that we are close to the end. This morning I get up and read this:

Shake-up ahead in world financial structure
a wrenching process that British Prime Minister Gordon Brown has dubbed "the birth pangs of this new global order."
http://news.mobile.msn.com/en-us/articles.aspx?afid=1&aid=27742573

The idea of a one world order has gone from conspiracy theory in the past to something spoken openly and frequently by world leaders today. It was economic problems that produced a Hitler. It was economic problems that produced a Lenin, what will todays economic problems produce? Mr Brown of England seems to think it will birth a new (satanic) world order. I think he's right.

The world we live in today is unlike any other period in our history. The new world order talked about by todays world leaders is the system that will force everyone to take the mark of the beast, no doubt about it. The talk of this new world order has put the end of the world, and the tribulatin period squarely in our sights. We don't have to wonder if its coming anymore, its here. This new world order that they talk about is the last manmade government before Jesus comes back to take things over.

If the tribulation is right before us and moving closer by the day, then the rapture of the true church is even closer. Luke 21:36 tells us to pray that we may be counted worthy of this escape, so I pray for you, for my family and myself. Time is short, grace and peace

Signs of Things To Come

Despite the lies you are hearing from the lamestream media, things are not getting better, they are getting worse. See the latest bank failures?

2 more banks go belly-up
Regulators close down Franklin Bank, a Houston bank with $5.1 billion in assets, and Security Pacific Bank of California, with assets of $561 million, raising the tally of failed banks this year to 19.
http://money.cnn.com/2008/11/07/news/companies/bank_failure/?postversion=2008110719


I wonder how all the people who voted for obama are going to feel when there's NO CHANGE? The rich get richer, everyone else...well, whatever. Its the way of this world and the kingdoms of this world. To all the people who 'got out to vote' for Mccain, have you seen all the infighting that was going on between palin and mccain? Can you say POOR JUDGEMENT on mccains part? What's the moral of the story? LOOK FOR A KINGDOM THATS NOT OF THIS WORLD. Put your treasure into a kingdom where thief politicians and pastors can't steal it. This world is seriously messed up, yet people keep going back to it over and over again for more. When will they learn? There will be no satisfaction in this world. Every fantasy you chase in the world that you think will bring you happiness will leave you empty.

Jesus Christ, the Son of God is the answer....to everything. He satisfies. What price do you put on inner peace? Its priceless, and theres only one place to get the version that lasts for more than 2 seconds. This world is moving straight into the gaping jaws of the tribulation and the Creator is still trying to get people's attention. How much time is left before all hell breaks loose? The signs are everywhere. Did you see the unemployment numbers released yesterday? About 200,000 people lost their jobs last month, banks are failing, foreclosures are still increasing. Guess what happens when people are homeless, jobless and hungry EN MASSE? The world as you know it turns upside down. Lies and deception don't put food in people's stomach or a roof over their head. People are ANGRY, this nation is divided in a way not seen since the civil war. That's a recipe for......I'll let you figure it out.

I write these things to you to get you to WAKE UP, to realize how short time is. The time to prepare for a storm is before it happens. The time to get right with the true Jesus is BEFORE you die or he comes back to take his church to heaven. The time is NOW to get right and stay right with him. Jesus is EVERYTHING, in him is where you want to be, everything else is meaningless drivel. You must be found in christ to escape whats about to happen. Don't let the once saved always saved OSAS liars deceive you:

2 Peter 2 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

It had been better for them to have not known the way of righteousness....which means they DID KNOW the way of righteousness then tossed it aside.

The dog is turned again to his own vomit, the sow returns to the mire.....once saved always saved teachers would have you believe that the dog cannot return to its own vomit, and the pig cannot return to the mire it came from. The bible clearly says YOU CAN return to the filth of this world, and people do it...every day. How much clearer can it be said?

Do the bad things that happen to people in this world have to happen to you in order to learn the lessons they teach? It won't be too much longer before every knee is bowed before Jesus Christ confessing that he is Lord. If the tribulation is close, then 'the escape' (luke 21:36) is even closer.
Wake up, Watch, Be Ready, Pray, whatever good you can do today....do it.

love grace and peace

Clearing More Fog From Once Saved Always Saved

I've said it before, I believe that the once saved always saved doctrine will send more people to hell than any other teaching from the apostate church.


THE PARABLE of THE LOST SON

21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. 22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: 23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: 24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

What happened there? The Son recognizes he blew his entire inheritance and WAS NO LONGER WORTHY of his fathers house....does that sound 'saved' to you?

The father said that this prodigal son was DEAD, does that sound saved to you?
The father said the son was LOST and DEAD, does that sound saved to you?

Only after coming back to the father in right standing, was he found by the father to be 'alive again.' To be 'alive again' means you lost your 'life' at some point then got it back again. Does that sound 'always saved' to you?

Here's another one to chew on:

John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. 30 I and my Father are one.

The OSAS crowd loves this one, because they dont understand it. They say 'look look, no man can pluck them out of his hand!' Yea, thats true, but they need to go back and re-read the parable of the prodigal son again. No man, broke into the fathers house and ripped the prodigal son out of the house did they? NO, HE WALKED OUT OF HIS OWN FREEWILL. That CAN happen, and the evidence for it is IN THE PRODIGAL SON. The prodigal son shows that a son CAN walk away, when the do, they are DEAD, they are LOST, they are NO MORE WORTHY TO BE CALLED A SON. DEAD, LOST, NO MORE WORTHY, those are the words YOUR BIBLE USES to describe the condition of one who willingly WALKS AWAY from the father.

DOES THAT SOUND ALWAYS SAVED TO YOU?

Time is short, very short. I just read another article this morning that is more proof that our entire financial system is about to go belly up. Did you know that the social security and medicare liability our government has to the baby boomers is enough to bankrupt the country many times over. The total liability is estimated to be about $41 TRILLION dollars, and nobody is lifting a finger to do anything about it.
http://money.cnn.com/2008/10/28/magazines/fortune/babyboomcrisis_walker.fortune/index.htm

Like I've been saying...you have'nt seen BAD yet. America is bankrupt, its just that simple. The social security and medicare burden alone, with no wars, no bailouts for rich bankers, no more anything, would cost each american about $350,000....APIECE. Needless to say, that ain't gonna happen. The country is in debt up to its ears, and yet we keep hearing 'HAPPY TIMES ARE JUST AHEAD." Watching the american economy collapse should teach you something. Time is short. Whats going to happen when the economy collapses? Do you think it will be a tranquil and peaceful time to be alive? No, it won't. This world is about to be turned on its head.

I wrote to you yesterday saying that we know whats going to happen. We have a book and a Spirit living inside us that confirms that time is short. The tribulation world stands before us. Look around, do you like what you see? Just realize that you ain't seen nothin yet. Things are poised to get MUCH WORSE. The Lord has allowed this world to come this far, will He let it go all the way? The only thing keeping hell on earth from breaking loose is THE RESTRAINER spoken of in your bible. The next prophetic event to be fulfilled is THE ESCAPE spoken of in Luke 21:36. We also have the WAR of Ezekiel 38-39 on the horizon. That's whats coming. If we keep chugging along at our current pace, this place will get significantly more ugly, in very short order. The events of our day, that is..today, are not slow moving glacial events. The events of our day have SHOCK value and they occur in a single day. WHAM, no warning, its just there sitting in your lap.

I've said it before, the time to prepare for a storm is BEFORE the storm hits. The days of GRACE are still here. The Lord has not withdrawn his Holy Spirit yet. There is still time to get right and stay right with the Son of God, but not much time. This is a warning..to you, and to me. No more playing games, no more messing around with worthless things. Perform a haircut on your activities and your mental focus. Jesus MUST BE FIRST. Make sure He KNOWS YOU-see Matt 7:21 for details. Make sure you KNOW HIM. He wants INTIMACY, not passing curiosity. Find out what pleases the Son of God before its too late. These are incredible times we live in.

Love grace and peace be with you

The End of the World as You Know It

I heard a financial analyst say recently, "what's going on in the markets now is something to be experienced, not analyzed." He said that because NOBODY understands whats going on right now except that its really bad. If you run a trend line through this past month and run it out 5 months, the world will be on its head. There are so many ways this world is in BIG HUGE TROUBLE RIGHT NOW. If you listen to market pundits, they talk about "testing the bottom" every day that the stocks fall lower. If we were testing the bottom, why did stocks go through and BELOW the bottom we were supposed to be testing? What am I talking about? We are living in a time that is UNLIKE ANY OTHER. These days do not compare to the great depression, they will be worse.

The American economy is based on consumer spending, and people have no money to spend, GAME OVER.

We are standing on the edge of a cliff right now, looking over. The only thing thats going to buy this world more time is a miracle from the Creator. Things will happen according to HIS TIMELINE. It appears that now, with things having moved so far along, the Lord is going to allow the floodgates to burst open and all hell to break loose. Most people have no idea just how bad things are about to get. I have asked the Lord how much time is left, so far, no answer from Him. I suspect that what I can see with my own eyes answers the question.

The way things are headed today, all hell is about to break loose. I said it last week, the two most probable outcomes for the near future are civil unrest and war. The United States is flat broke, the dollar isn't worth the paper its printed on anymore, so what happens when China stops accepting dollars for payment? Everything inside your local walmart is made in china so you figure it out.

You may not think so, but this is all GOOD NEWS. The end of the world as we know it is a GREAT THING. Our father, who art in heaven, THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE.. The time to prepare for a storm is before the storm hits, not when its right on top of you. The sky has darkened, the wind is howling outside and its raining and lightning. Ya think a storm is coming? So many people today are still clinging to their lamestream media sweethearts to tell them that everything is going to be ok. What happened to seeking comfort from the Creator?

Isaiah 51:12 "I, even I, am He who comforts you. Who are
... I alone am the one who comforts you. Why, then, are you afraid of mortals, who must die, of humans, who are like grass?

All hell is about to break loose and I am not in the least bit concerned..seriously. I have learned to trust in my God for EVERYTHING. In the same way that He fed the israelites manna in the desert he can feed my family, and he can feed you. Over the past year, I saw the hand of the Lord part the red sea on my families behalf. I HAVE SEEN at least one miracle in my life and countless acts of faithfulness. Our God is alive and well and IN CHARGE. Why should we fear? Why? Trust him and watch what he will do. HUMBLE YOURSELF, he does'nt walk with the proud. I've seen too much from my God to ever doubt him again...EVER. He has come through over and over and over again for me. I write this to YOU, because I am the LEAST of the Lords servants. I'm working on myself, to improve and to please him more each day, but I have alot of work to do. I am working to achieve PERFECTION for him. With time this short, will I ever achieve it? No, but its the heart our God is looking at. WHAT IS IN YOUR HEART FOR HIM TODAY? What will you do for him? Are you consumed with him? He is everything, we are nothing. Why do I need to be 'somebody' when I am IN HIM? He is greater than all creation, and we are in him...put that in your pipe and smoke it for awhile.

From my vantage point as a watchman on the wall, time is INCREDIBLY SHORT. The rapture is the next major event to occur before the tribulation starts, and I can see the tribulation world ALL AROUND US TODAY, just waiting to break its bands and engulf the world. There is still A RESTRAINER at work holding the antichrist and his demonic world at bay. For how much longer only the Lord knows. He has'nt left us blind dumb and deaf though, LOOK AROUND YOU. Are people desperate for peace and safety today? Yea, they are. Did the bible say anything about that? Yes, it did. Wake up.

There is an escape from ALL thats about to happen (luke 21:36). Some will be kept from the hour of trial that will come upon ALL the earth (Rev 3:10). The Holy Spirit ALWAYS points to Jesus. I am pointing you to Jesus, the true son of God. He is our answer for EVERYTHING. What can be thrown at us that He cannot handle? If his Spirit is living inside you, what do you have to worry about? Do you think he's unaware of what you are facing? He is looking for one thing from you...ALL OF YOU. He wants all of you. He deserves all of you. Give him all of you and he will give you all of himself. He's getting the short end of the deal everytime. A perfect God came down to die for us, why should he? Who are we that he should do such things for us? We are all no more than unworthy servants, doing our duty. We love him because HE LOVED US FIRST.

I'm done for today, things are coming undone in this world. FEAR is here, and its going to get ALOT worse for those who are not 'in Christ.' You can't fake it, you either are, or you will be consumed. Stop messing around and get right with him, stay right with him. He is your answer, regardless of what your problem is. The greatest family reunion the universe has EVER seen is just around the corner. Love, grace and peace

Borrowed Time

It does'nt take a prophet to see the things that are about to happen, all it takes is eyes wide open and a heart and mind that love the truth. Here's one thing that may be coming to a neighborhood near you: The US defaults on its debt and the US dollar collapses. Read this:

http://www.leap2020.eu/GEAB-N-28-is-available%21-Global-systemic-crisis-Alert-Summer-2009-The-US-government-defaults-on-its-debt_a2250.html

What would it mean if the US dollar becomes worthless and the US defaults on the trillions of dollars of debt it owes to other nations? War? Maybe. Chaos in the streets? Maybe. Anarchy? Maybe. It's hard to say exactly what will happen, but what we can guesstimate with some confidence is this: whatever happens, it will be REALLY BAD. It looks like no matter what happens in the months ahead, the baby boomers who worked their entire lives will lose their entire retirements, anything tied directly to the US dollar is going to be worthless. This is economics 101. What happens when you print dollars out of thin air? It's called inflation. The fed is printing off dollars as fast as they can, making every dollar you hold worth less by the day. What's the point? I've been saying it now for awhile, we are living on borrowed time. Everything about the world as you know it IS CHANGING...DAILY. The shocks to the 'old world order' system come daily.

Theft, robbery, and oppression of the common man are the trademarks of our day. The pastors of todays world are no different organizationally or operationally than any CEO of any company you care to name. Look at how so called christianity is organized, pastor=CEO, the so called 'ministries' within the church are no different than corporate departments. Todays apostianity has taken everything they know about how to operate a church from BUSINESS. They run the churches as though they were a business instead of THE LIVING ORGANIC BODY OF CHRIST. It's utterly nauseating, sickening to the core, absolutely ROTTEN. Do you remember Jesus entering the temple and flipping over the tables of the money changers. He accused them of turning the house of God into A DEN OF ROBBERS. Nothing has changed, absolutely NOTHING. Today babylonianity is more a den of robbers than it ever was. Come out of the prostitute, she offers you services, for a fee. Every prostitute offers service for a fee. Churchianity offers 'services' for a fee. You do know that these 'pastors' expect to be paid don't you? They do not deny that they offer regularly scheduled 'services' do they? Services for money, same as Jiffy Lube or your local den of iniquity..no difference.

Time is short, open your eyes. Apart from some kind of intervention from our Lord, this place is going to turn upside down..soon. There is no road backwards to the life this world used to live. The 'good old days' are gone, welcome to the new reality. The new satanic world order is introducing itself to the world piece by piece.

Men still have a choice. The days of God's grace have not ended..yet. The world is just starting to understand what Jesus meant when he said:

Luke 17:22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.

What are these 'days of the Son of man?' They are GOOD DAYS, days of grace and peace. Men will long for them and not see them. Today is a day of decision, a day to recommit, a day to be watching, a day to be ready. A storm is coming. Yea, I know there are scoffers out there, they mock but their time is coming too. Each and every day these days I see fewer and fewer people laughing. Those who mock, mock only themselves. There is an escape promised in Luke 21:36, its an escape from ALL thats about to happen. We are told to pray that we may be counted worthy of it. A quick look around at this world should be all the evidence you need that you are going to REALLY want to escape ALL thats about to happen. Whatever good you can do today, do it. Whatever you can do to advance our Lords kingdom, do it. There are no small things. Remember the masters words:

Matt 25:34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. 37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

Someone was thirsty and you gave them a drink? That's not going to make the headlines on CNN or FAUX news now is it? Nope, but its going to be HUGE in the kingdom of heaven. The world dismisses our masters ways and we dismiss the worlds ways, in the end, we'll see who comes out on top. REMAIN IN HIM..grace and peace

All the Prophets

Is it any wonder that the Jews tried to kill every prophet God sent to them? After sending the prophets, they then killed the fulfillment of the word of prophets in Jesus himself. Read what all the prophets had to say, its the same message over and over again, take a look here:

Hosea 2:1'Say ye to your brethren -- Ammi, And to your sisters -- Ruhamah.
2 Plead ye with your mother -- plead, (For she is not My wife, and I am not her husband,) And she turneth her whoredoms from before her, And her adulteries from between her breasts,
3 Lest I strip her naked. And have set her up as in the day of her birth, And have made her as a wilderness, And have set her as a dry land, And have put her to death with thirst.
4 And her sons I do not pity, For sons of whoredoms are they,
5 For gone a-whoring hath their mother, Acted shamefully hath their conceiver, For she hath said, I go after my lovers, Those giving my bread and my water, My wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
6 Therefore, lo, I am hedging up thy way with thorns, And I have made for her a wall, And her paths she doth not find.
And she hath pursued her lovers, And she doth not overtake them, And hath sought them, and doth not find, And she hath said: I go, and I turn back unto My first husband, For -- better to me then than now.
8 And she knew not that I had given to her, The corn, and the new wine, and the oil. Yea, silver I did multiply to her, And the gold they prepared for Baal.
9 Therefore do I turn back, And I have taken My corn in its season, And My new wine in its appointed time, And I have taken away My wool and My flax, covering her nakedness.
10 And now do I reveal her dishonour before the eyes of her lovers, And none doth deliver her out of My hand.
11 And I have caused to cease all her joy, Her festival, her new moon, and her sabbath, Even all her appointed times,
12 And made desolate her vine and her fig-tree, Of which she said, A gift they are to me, That my lovers have given to me, And I have made them for a forest, And consumed them hath a beast of the field.
13 And I have charged on her the days of the Baalim, To whom she maketh perfume, And putteth on her ring and her ornament, And goeth after her lovers, And Me forgat -- an affirmation of Jehovah.
14 Therefore, lo, I am enticing her, And have caused her to go to the wilderness, And I have spoken unto her heart,
15 And given to her her vineyards from thence, And the valley of Achor for an opening of hope, And she hath responded there as in the days of her youth, And as in the day of her coming up out of the land of Egypt.
16 And it hath come to pass, in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah, Thou dost call Me -- My husband, And dost not call Me any more -- My lord.
17 And I have turned aside the names of the lords from her mouth, And they are not remembered any more by their name.
18 And I have made to them a covenant in that day, with the beast of the field, And with the fowl of the heavens, And the creeping thing of the ground, And bow, and sword, and war I break from off the land, And have caused them to lie down confidently.
19 And I have betrothed thee to Me to the age, And betrothed thee to Me in righteousness, And in judgment, and kindness, and mercies,
20 And betrothed thee to Me in faithfulness, And thou hast known Jehovah.
21 And it hath come to pass in that day, I answer -- an affirmation of Jehovah, I answer the heavens, and they answer the earth.
22 And the earth doth answer the corn, And the new wine, and the oil, And they answer Jezreel.
23 And I have sowed her to Me in the land, And I have pitied Lo-Ruhamah, And I have said to Lo-Ammi, My people thou art, and it saith, My God!'

Theres a repetitive theme here, do you see it? Over and over again, the same things

Did you see it? I go and turn back to my first husband...............first husband...first love. Gee, that sounds familiar, where have I seen that before? Oh yea, right here:

Rev 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. 6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

Gosh, I guess all the words of the prophets DO HAVE some importance for us today. What does he mean 'left thy first love?' If you ever wondered what that meant, now you know, go read ALL the prophets, read their message from the creator to men to STOP THEIR WHORING, stop their spiritual prostitution. Todays babylonian churchianity is a HARLOT. And by the way, 2 sentences after talking about 'leaving their first love' it talks about HATING THE SINS OF THE NICOLAITANS....coincidence? You decide.

The Lord wants you body soul and spirit, he wants ALL OF YOU. Half hearted committments, 'making a decision' for Jesus one day, then acting the prostitute the rest of your life WILL NOT CUT IT. Belonging to Jesus means belonging to an ELITE GROUP, a group that is FEW in number, a group that MOST people wont qualify for. Sitting on the throne at the center of eternity IS an elite privilege. We are told to die to ourselves so we may live with Christ, in Christ. We were'nt told to turn our backs on this world as some kind of cosmic killjoy project, we were told to put everything away from us so we MAY GAIN EVERYTHING. WAKE UP. "In Christ" we TAKE POSSESSION OF ALL THINGS, THAT MEANS EVERYTHING. He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords and we ARE IN HIM. It really starts to get surreal when you sit down and think about all the things promised to us. We are children of the MOST HIGH GOD, members of the only TRUE royal family. Because of these things, you can laugh at the rich people of this world. What do they think they have? Who do they think they are? They are grass and mists, here for a moment then POOF gone away forever. Wake up, time is short. Jesus could come back today or next year, I don't know, what I do know is we must be READY and watching when he shows up. Love, grace and peace

Why Hardship, Why Punishment

Jeremiah 4:18 Your ways and your doings have made these things come on you; this is your sin; truly it is bitter, going deep into your heart.

People get the leaders they deserve. Today, everywhere we look all that can be seen is wickedness, oppression and greed for gain. Where is the love? Where is the peace? People are losing their homes, their jobs, they cannot feed their families, and why not? Here's why:

Your ways and your doings have made these things come on you; this is your sin; truly it is bitter, going deep into your heart.

Do bad things happen to good people? Yes, however, the difference between the evildoer and those who are in Christ is this: the Lord ALWAYS takes care of his own, somehow, someway.

Psalm 37:25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

I have been young, and now I'm almost middle aged, and I have never seen the righteous forsaken. The Lord takes care of his own. What does the future hold? I don't know, I've been asking the Lord about it. We know where all this is headed, but in the short term, will we see a return to more normal days or do we slip further into the dark satanic system setting itself up all around us. My impression is this: this world will continue its descent into darkness, with small plateaus along the way. What characterizes this world today? I think this nails it:

men are lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

If this world and its filthiness does not vex you, theres something wrong with you. If you feel like everythings ok, theres something wrong with you. What do I mean when I say somethings wrong with you? The Creator of all things is NOT PLEASED with this world or the men in it. If you are pleased, and He is not, somethings wrong with YOU. If you do not hunger and thirst for our fathers kingdom to come, somethings wrong with you. We do not belong to this world, we are not of this world. This world is a sickening mess, thats what men have made of it. Your so called 'pastors' tell you that everythings ok, when EVERYTHING IS NOT OKAY. No, something is VERY VERY WRONG. Wickedness everywhere, no righteousness, no justice, just every man for himself. If you want to know why all the leaders of this world are wicked and corrupt, its because thats what THE PEOPLE DESERVE. Yep, you heard me right, thats what they deserve. Churches and so called christians blanket every corner of America and yet we are one of the most wicked nations on earth. We're not wicked you say? LOOK AROUND YOU. Turn on the TV and behold the filth and dissipation that people CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF. Markets are efficient in some ways, if nobodys buying something, people stop selling it. Its obvious then, that people cannot get enough of back stabbing, sex, lies and deceit. Thats what sells these days, which means theres a HUGE market for it.

The chickens are coming home to roost. So called christianity, and its hired hand nicolaitan pastors are going to reap the whirlwind for their IDOLATRY, wickedness, lust, greed and deception. The world considers christianity a joke, and rightly so, but they dont go far enough. The leaders of so called christianity have attempted to usurp the place of the head of the body, that place is reserved for CHRIST ALONE, thats called idolatry. Turn away from the babylonian harlot. Theres a storm coming and most people dont see it. Time is short, grace and peace

The World as You Knew It

The world as you knew it is gone forever. The first shock to that old world was 9/11. The second major shock is happening now. If you watch the news, they are trying desperately to find some good news to report and they are having a hard time finding it. Many people are digging holes in the sand and jamming their heads in, they do not want to hear any more bad news. Guess what? Bad news is all thats coming. The things that are coming on the world are only bad news to those who are of this world. A person who has all their hopes here should be upset. Read the news, some guy in California just shot his entire family then himself because of finances. Things are not going to get any better, there is no going back. You WILL NEVER see the world you used to know ever again. Can a woman who is delivering a baby go into reverse delivery? No, she can't. She either delivers the baby or dies trying. Thats where we are. We are seeing the birth of the new world order, satans world order.

I woke up in the middle of the night last night and spent some time with the Lord. Although I am not a prophet, I found a prophet who tells us whats happening:

Isaiah 10 >>For this cause it will be that, when the purpose of the Lord against Mount Zion and Jerusalem is complete, I will send punishment on the pride of the heart of the king of Assyria, and on the glory of his uplifted eyes.
13 For he has said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my knowledge, for I am wise: and I have taken away the limits of the peoples' lands, and the stores of their wealth have become mine; and I have made towns low in the dust, sending destruction on those living in them;
14 And I have put my hands on the wealth of the peoples, as on the place where a bird has put her eggs; and as a man may take the eggs from which a bird has gone, so I have taken all the earth for myself: and not a wing was moved, and not a mouth gave out a sound.

The king of Assyria (satan) is taking the wealth of all the nations for himself here, he is removing nations boundaries. Sounds exactly like whats happening TODAY.

Here's more on whats about to happen:

And I will send punishment on the world for its evil, and on the sinners for their wrongdoing; and I will put an end to all pride, and will make low the power of the cruel.
12 I will make men so small in number, that a man will be harder to get than gold, even the best gold of Ophir.
13 For this cause the heavens will be shaking, and the earth will be moved out of its place, in the wrath of the Lord of armies, and in the day of his burning passion.
14 And it will be that, like a roe in flight, and like wandering sheep, they will go every man to his people and to his land.
15 Everyone who is overtaken will have a spear put through him, and everyone who goes in flight will be put to the sword.
16 Their young children will be broken up before their eyes; their goods will be taken away, and their wives made the property of others.

Whats coming? DEATH. The time of punishment is almost upon this world. The pouring out of our God's wrath is almost upon this world. When you see the thieves and liars like paulson and bernanke stealing from you on behalf of their master satan, laugh at them. They are laughing right now, at you. The largest consolidation of wealth in this worlds history is going on right before our eyes. They better laugh now, because very very soon, all their laughing will be over. They will be hiding in the rocks from the wrath of our God. Theres coming a day when things will be set right. The fatherless and the widow will have justice done for them instead of being robbed. If you are not SICKENED by whats going on in this world, all the injustice and evil around us, then you might want to check yourself. Why do we want our Fathers kingdom to come and his will to be done? Look around you, this world is sickening, thats why.

The creator of all things has given men THOUSANDS OF YEARS to show what they can do with the earth. Most of humanity decided it would be a great idea to kick the true God out, embrace satan as god (through false gods), and elevate themselves to godhood. Well, we're seeing how that story ends. All we see is evil and oppresion everywhere. This place is sickening. Congratulations mankind, GREAT JOB. At the end of all this, Jesus is going to set things aright. Of the increase of his government THERE WILL BE NO END. Thank God. Have you had enough yet? Men are NOT the answer to this worlds problems. Jesus Christ, the Son of the living GOD is the answer...to everything. Thankfully we dont have much longer to wait. We are now seeing the final slide, the final corner turned on this worlds history.

None of us really knew how the beginning of the end was going to look, but we know now, a financial meltdown. Read this:

There are lots of other articles you can read about the derivative mess thats about to blow up. We've had messes before, but none of them was like this. There has been apostasy in the past, but theres never been apostasy like this. There is no way to turn back the clock, theres no way back to yesterday. Today men have two choices. They can either 1. look to other men for answers or 2. look to the Creator for answers. I saw in the news where a group of 'pastors' went to capitol hill to pray for american economic recovery. How utterly clueless these men are. They did'nt pray for repentance, they did'nt pray for broken hearts, they did'nt ask for an end to apostasy and spiritual whoredom, they prayed for money. Utterly SICKENING. Seek first the kingdom of God and everything else will be added to you. The Lord knows what you need and when you need it. I don't know, HE DOES. He comes first.

Whats the bottom line? TIME IS SHORT. There is no way to back track from here. Be watching and ready for THE ESCAPE (Luke 21:36). Pray that you may be counted worthy of it, most will not. grace and peace

The Same Story

Isaiah 1 :1Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.
4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.
5 Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
7 Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
9 Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.

Over and over again we see the same theme. The majority doing whatever they want and a remnant left. Matt 7:14 tells us that the gate is small and the path narrow that lead to life and only a FEW will find it. Here in Isaiah, we see a VERY SMALL REMNANT spared. This is our wake up call.

There is an escape coming for a few people who are found worthy of it. Things are going from bad to worse here on earth. The world is struggling mightily to find some 'good news' amid all the doom and gloom of whats happening around us. Things are about to get MUCH WORSE. We have the privilege of knowing whats going to happen in advance. The problem with most people today is their attention stays in the wrong place. Trying to find good news in this world is great, except when it keeps you from looking to the Creator. Whether times are good or bad, HE should be the source of our joy and happiness. One of the many reasons I have rejected this world, and proven the word of the Lord to be true is, everything this world has to offer is meaningless. All the joys and pleasures people chase after are mists and dreams, when people are able to catch up with all the things they've chased in this world, they are satisfied for FLEETING MOMENTS, then they want something else to satisfy them. At what point do people wake up and realize that this world was NEVER MEANT TO SATISFY YOU. Those who finally "get it" begin looking in another place for their joy. We are hoping for a different kingdom, one not of this world, THAT ACTUALLY SATISFIES.

Isaiah 55 :2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

The fat cat bankers and rich people of today are on borrowed time. Those who are first today, will be last VERY SOON. They have been first for a season, but they will be last ETERNALLY. It's for this reason that I laugh at the rich of this world. They don't 'get it' but they are about to, in a most unpleasant way.

The world as you knew it is on life support, when things around you seem the most NORMAL is when you should be watching the most. The Lord is coming back for us during a time of eating, drinking, marrying, planting, and building. He's coming back on a day LIKE TODAY. This world sings a lullaby to people to put them to sleep, the Lord wants you to wake up. When you have no reason whatsoever to believe that the master will show up, he's likely to show up. Time is short. grace and peace

Cutting Through the Fog

Why do I think time is short for this world? I suppose a good place to start would be all the signs Jesus listed as signs of the end of the age. Of those signs, the primary one was deception.

Matt 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many

Of all the ways Jesus could have answered the question, he answered by warning us of DECEPTION. We live in an age of unparalleled deception. Here's an example of some of the deception going on these days. Did you know that each friday for the past 4-5 weeks, another BANK FAILURE has been announced? They announce these bank failures on fridays in order to not shock the stock market, using the weekend as a 'cooling off' period. When small banks fail, its troubling, but nothing like what will happen when a BIG bank fails. Todays financial system stands because these big banks are all interdependant. One big bank owes another big bank, who owes another etc etc. When one of these big banks fails, the chances are great that the entire financial system comes tumbling down. What happens when the entire financial system collapses? Chaos. Have you been watching the US gov't bailing out big banks over the past months? Just this weekend I read about another large bank in trouble. Here's a recent headline for you: Former I.M.F. Economist Predicts Big Bank Failure
http://dealbook.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/former-imf-economist-predicts-big-bank-failure/

We know what's coming: a one world government, a one world economy where no man can buy or sell without the mark. The satanic elite that rule this world have a saying: ORDO AB CHAO
also know as ORDER OUT OF CHAOS. They create the chaos, then they create order from that chaos. The "order" that's coming is called the new world order. How far off is the mass chaos? I just told you. Let one of these big banks fail and we'll see what happens. As if that were not enough, there's also the tension between the US and Russia now, the possible US/Israeli strike on Iran in the coming weeks. The world as you know it hangs on a razors edge.

I have mentioned before that maybe a year or two ago I asked the Lord how much time was left, and he asnwered me with a question. He asked me how many "normal days" I thought were left. I don't think there are many "normal days" left. What are normal days? Ones without worldwide chaos perhaps. Days without wholesale lawlessness. Certainly the lawlessness is increasing, but we have'nt seen anything yet. Look around, how many "normal" days do you think this world has before everything turns upside down? Remember, the lame stream media does everything in its power to hide from you the truth of what this world is in for. They are a "free press" that is, free to report on everything that DOESNT MATTER, but NOT FREE to report on anything that does matter.

There is an escape from what's coming on this world. Read Luke 21:36, Rev 3:10, Luke 17, Matt 24-25, Acts 16:31. Ask the Lord to open your eyes. Pray that you may see the world the way He sees it. In Matt 25, the parable of the virgins, all the virgins were caught sleeping when the Lord came back, but some still had oil in their lamps, symbolic of the Holy Spirit within them. Let's not be sleeping when our master shows up. Let us pray that our lamps may be topped of with oil today. Let us, in obedience, pray for escape as we are instructed to in Luke 21:36. This is a wicked world, our kingdom is yet to come, but its coming soon. Be of good cheer, our Lord has overcome this world. grace and peace

What We Are to "Do"

As I've said many times, there's no more powerful thing you can do for anyone (to include yourself) than to PRAY. What else are we to "do?" PATIENTLY ENDURE. Consider:

Heb 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, 14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. 15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

Sometimes patiently enduring is pretty tough. We are humans and many of us want what we want NOW. The Word of our Father makes it perfectly clear though that patient waiting is a huge part of what we are called to do in service to Him. Ever heard that saying "the waiting is the hardest part." So true. Thing is, we might not have to wait much longer for many things. The rapture is imminent, the facade on this world is quickly unraveling. I often wonder how much farther things can go without the entire world falling apart. Economically, politically, socially, ethically, the wheels are coming off. Be faithful, be patient, time is VERY short. grace and peace

Time is Short

I find it helpful to keep important things in the forefront of my mind. I guess you could call this keeping things in perspective. Let's have a perspective grasping moment here. I asked the Lord last year, and I ask Him pretty much every day "how much time is left?" He answered my question with a question, He asked me, "how many 'normal' days do you think this world has left." I started thinking about that....normal days. This world is teetering on the brink of global economic collapse. When global economic collapse occurs, will that qualify for the end of 'normal' days? I think so. War is about to break out in the Middle East. Depending on what Israel does to it's neighbors in the near future, this could easily escalate into the Gog-Magog War. Would that qualify as the end of 'normal" days? I think so.

Why would the Lord ask me "How many normal days do you think are left?" Let's look at:

Luke 17:22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.

You shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man? What characterized these "days of the Son of man?"

Luke 17:26
And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27 They 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. 28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; 29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. 30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. 31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. 32 Remember Lot's wife. 33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. 34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. 35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.

The days of the Son of man are characterized by normal things, eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building....normal things. But the same day that the righteous are taken out of this world, things will turn from 'normal' to anything but 'normal' We can already hear the horsemen of the apocalypse approaching. The anti-christ, war, famine, death and hades. Read the headlines, bees dissapearing, wheat shortages, wars and rumors of wars. What did Jesus say to do when these things BEGIN to happen? Look up......why? Your redemption draws nigh......What does the bible NOT say? When these things begin to happen...stock up on food? Nope. Build a bunker? Nope. Learn survival skills so you can live in the mountains? Nope. He said to look up.

How far removed are we today's from 'normal' days? Well, things are still plodding along for many as if they were normal, but for more and more people, normalcy has already gone to the wind. Ask the thousands of people being kicked out of their homes each day how normal their life seems today.... time is short, turn back to your Creator while His grace is still extended to you, it's not too late......
