Another Shooting, This Time in California

Again, we are within a week of the mayan 'god's' so called return.  These fallen angel devil worshipers are serious about bringing him back into this world.  This is three at least attempted mass shootings in one-two weeks?

Sacrifice to Satan-Massacre in Connecticut

News story here.

26 dead, including 18 kids, one of the worst mass shootings in US history.  But why?

We are one week away from 'the return of Quetzalcoatl'.  These satanists believe (as did the mayans) that it takes blood to win the favor of their god.  They believe it takes sacrifice to bring him back into this world.  This is the second mass shooting in as many weeks.  Notice in this shooting they went after the innocents, mere babies.  Why?  The more innocent the victims the greater the sacrifice.  Sick? Yes, and all this is tied directly to 12/21/2012 and the supposed return of their god.

They have one major problem though.  Last time I checked my bible there was this thing called the restrainer that will continue to restrain until it is taken out of the way.

2 Thess 2:7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.

Satan does not determine the timing of end time events, the Lord God Almighty does.

My heart grieves for the victims and the families involved in this.  Be aware of what this was.  Perhaps, Lord forbid these sickos have more of this planned in the days ahead.  The mayans did the same things, they sacrificed humans to their gods.  They worshiped fallen angels as do the people behind this shooting.

Things like this are all the more reason to pray for ourselves, our families and all the brothers.  We need to pray for protection, for all of us, that the Lord would keep us out of the hands of these servants of the enemy.

Lord keep us safe for our trust is in you.  Lead us not into temptation and deliver us from the evil one.  Lord, especially protect our children.  In Jesus name we pray, amen.

Although the Mayan date (12/21/12) may be a non-event, these large earthquakes in December are strange.  This upcoming Mayan date is a perfect example of why not to set dates.  What happens when nothing big happens on 12/21/12?  How many people will stop watching?  The signs of the end are here, but I don't see any 2012 dates in the bible....

What happens if the real destruction begins in 2013?  The sun has become destructive, we had the worst natural disaster in US history in 2012 (drought), we have large earthquakes on a vertical uptick, we have tornadoes in winter, birds falling dead out of the sky, every kind of sea creature washing up dead on the seashore, widespread apostasy in the churches, signs of anti-Christ draped all over Obama, widespread apathy, eating drinking marrying and giving in marriage, planting, and building...right up till the day Noah enters the ark...

This writer hates this world, the anti-Christ spirit has grown almost unbearable.  My spirit screams for justice, for the wrongs to be righted.  How tiring is it to watch filth and abomination be honored while the truth has to hide in a closet for fear of offending someone?  Lord, may thy kingdom come and may thy will be done here on earth just as it is done in heaven.

These earthquakes are a sign.  A sign of the approach of the Lord.  The Bridegroom approaches for His bride.  The Bride and Bridegroom hide themselves away for 7 DAYS after the Bridegroom snatches away the bride.  There is an escape from all coming.  There are those who will be kept from all that is about to happen.  They will be kept from the trial/tribulation that is coming upon all those who live on the face of the earth.  Let us pray that our sins are forgiven today and that we may be counted worthy to escape all that is about to happen and stand before the Son of man.

If you are in Christ, I pray for you many times daily.  Please remember all those who are in Christ in your prayers.  Pray that our sins may be forgiven today.  The escape is real, it is not the figment of someones imagination.  If the Lord told us to pray for an escape from ALL, you can be certain there IS an escape from all to pray for.  How disappointed will those people be who did not have the faith to take the Lord at His Word at face value.

If the Lord does tarry, 2013 should be a very interesting year.  I can only imagine how large the mega-quake is going to be in the spring of 2013.  Last year we saw twins (M8.6 and M8.2 on the same day).  Whatever has happened to the sun this past year has made it dangerous.  "They" are going to have to chem-trail (SRM) solar radiation management like crazy now.  For every Anderson Cooper that goes blind for 3 days from 'sunburnt eyeballs' how many common people are afflicted and we never even hear about it.  What did the Lord say?

Revelation 16:8 

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire.

Is the sun scorching people today?  Perhaps we are just seeing the beginning of this, you be the judge.

In spite of what many think there is alot we can do about this, we CAN PRAY.  Those who consider prayer "doing nothing" indict themselves.  How powerful do we believe prayer is?  Do we really believe faithful prayer can move mountains?  This writer believes so.  Get busy with your body all you want, Satan could care less.  But when you pray, He trembles.  That's a fact.

Keep the faith.  Please remember all the brothers (and sisters) in Christ in your prayers.

Grace and peace.

Revelation 6, Seal 6 Is On The Way

We now have absolute proof, objective evidence that Seal 6 is "in the mail" on its way to us.

What would we call this today?

Rev 612And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

How would a pole shift look to someone living in John's time?  Go do your research on what would happen if the poles shifted.  What it would look like is described above.  What kind of event do you know of that would move every mountain and island out of their places?  What kind of event would make the heavens look like a scroll being rolled together.  Then throw in everything else described above and mix it all together and you are staring directly at a pole shift.  No question that is what we are looking at in Rev 6, Seal 6.

Now, what does the research show today?  The geologic record shows proof positive that exactly what is happening now precedes an imminent pole shift.  I will give you one piece of evidence, you will have to work for the rest (use google, the info is easy to find).

Video here.

If Seal 6 is on its way (we can be sure of it now) what about seals 1-5?  Have they been opened?  This writer has more questions than answers but we can be certain of Seal 6 building up before our eyes.

There is so much evidence out there.  Chemtrailing is called (SRM) solar radiation management.  It is officially denied but is being done every day all day in our skies.  Look up :

Ethics of Geoengineering, Solar Radiation Management

Its being talked over in depth, but still denied officially.  From what the 'experts' say aerosol spraying would only take place during an environmental emergency.  Well, a quick look up at the soup in the sky tells me they are doing it, what does that mean?  We must be in the midst of an environmental emergency.  The least they could do it admit it, but they will not.  The will not admit it but the evidence is before our eyes every day.  Anyone who looks up and sees this and cannot admit the truth has serious denial issues, do the research.  This is not water vapor, they are sprayed aerosols.  This look natural to you?

Do the research: geoengineering, solar radiation management, chemtrails.  They are doing it "for our own good" to protect us from the sun.  The side effects are deadly which is why they do not admit what they are doing, but they believe the side effects are better than the radiation.  Which brings us back to the Bible and man attempting to defy God.

Revelation 

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire.

There will be no airports to fly their chemtrails out of after the pole shift.  Then what are they going to do?  This SRM stuff is an attempt to delay the inevitable.  Does the sun already have the power to scorch people with fire?  I don't know why don't we ask Anderson Cooper...

The timing of all this is enough to make this writer's head spin.  What is happening when is all just crazy, but the evidence speaks for itself.  Here are the 2 bottom line questions:

What did the Lord say would happen?  What is now happening?  If they match, we have fulfillment.  If the Lord said it, it will happen, absolutely certainly guaranteed.  Look up for our redemption draws nigh.

Another Gas Line Explosion=Widespread Earth Movement

The earth is shaking and quaking and moving in ways it has not before.  The evidence?  Gas explosion after gas explosion all over the United States.  Today is just another one to add to the list.  Why are all these gas lines exploding?  Why is that question never ever asked in the lame stream media?  We know why: denial and deception.  Keep the people in the dark until its too late to do anything about it.

M7.1 Indonesia=Uncharted Territory

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/usc000e7j6#summary

We just had a 7.3 three days ago in Japan, think this is unusual?  You bet it is.

The pattern for the destroyer has been spring megaquakes and fall very large quakes.  Now we have moved into December large quakes as well.  What does this mean?  We should be watching.

Why has the Lord instructed this servant to be watching these earthquakes?  To point them out to you.  To put an exclamation point on them.  Okay, but why?  How about:

Revelation 11:13

At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake Revelation 16:18  Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder and a severe earthquake. No earthquake like it has ever occurred ..

Matthew 28:2 

There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. Revelation 6:12  I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. ... I watched as the Lamb broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake

Job 9:6 He shakes the earth from its place and makes its pillars tremble.

Why does the Lord use earthquakes?  Because they are an attention getter, especially if you experience one personally.  Read the scriptures above, who wrote that?  The Lord God Almighty wrote that.  Whose signs and signals are they?  The Lord's, not brother D's imagination, they are a sign and a signal from the Lord God.


When we have back to back 7+ earthquakes in the world, I'd say we might want to snap out of our slumber, sit up and pay attention.  To what?  To what the Lord would say to YOU.  Not what brother D would say to you, what the Lord would say to you.

What is the Lord saying to this brother today?

This:

Pray for yourself, your family and all the brothers that your sins may be forgiven and that you may be counted worthy to escape all that is about to happen and stand before the Lord.  Give what you are going to give to the poor.  Turn your back and your heart on this world and its desires.  Give yourself fully to the Lord body soul and spirit.  Listen to the Spirit, what is He saying? Do what you know you should be doing.

This brother has no idea about times or dates.  I 'feel' like something is going to happen very soon but feelings are traitors.  The Lord told us to be patient.  Matt 25 is full of counsel for us, both the parable of the virgins and the talents fully apply to us today.

The Lord may pull us out of here today, who knows?  Or, we could still be waiting 5 years from now.  I cannot fathom that but it is absolutely possible.  We are being tested by time.  Will we keep His command to endure patiently?

Rev 3:10Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.

Please pray for all the brothers, for your family, and for this brother (and his family).  I remember you in my prayers.

Obama Anti-Christ, More Evidence?

Daniel 8:25 By his cunning he shall make deceit prosper under his hand, and in his own mind he shall become great. Without warning he shall destroy many. And he shall even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he shall be broken—but by no human hand.

On one hand, Obama tells the world he is all for Israel, on the other hand he sends 200 Abrams battle tanks and a squadron of F-16 fighters to an Islamic enemy of Israel at a time when the world is on the brink of war.

He is a master of intrigue, deceit and deception.  Say one thing, do another.  When the people are satisfied with words, just give them words and nothing else...

Predictions For 2013

These predictions are not prophesy, they are the extension of a pattern.  What pattern?  We have seen a multi-year pattern of:

1.  Birds dropping dead out of the sky on new years day, continuing throughout Jan-Feb, dead fish and other animals dropping dead for no apparent reason.

2.  Strange sounds all over the world in January/February

3.  Mega-earthquakes in March/April

Now that we have seen these things happen year after year, how crazy is it to predict they will happen again this year?  It is a pattern, it is repeatable and verifiable.  This is evidence that is being called out in advance.  How can people still live in denial is beyond me...

What does this mean?  A destroyer is in our cosmic neighborhood and drawing nearer by the day.  Read Revelation 8 for the details of what is coming.  The trumpet judgements come from up above, from space, from the heavens, however you want to say it that's where this judgement is coming from.

This is not prophesy, this is not "thus saith the Lord" this is the Lord pointing this writer's eyes and spirit in a direction and telling him to LOOK.  So, this writer is looking in this direction and telling you what he sees.  Lets watch and see what happens.  When these things do happen, you can ask your skeptic friends to explain away the multi-year pattern of evidence.  When they cannot, you can lead them through an explanation of what is coming and why.  If they will not respond to grace and mercy, perhaps they will respond to impending wrath and judgement.  If they end up "in Christ" what does it matter which they responded to?

The Lord has given this world every possible reason imaginable to believe that what He said will happen, will happen just as it is written.  Many will not believe, but if we can snatch just one more soul out of the fire before all hell breaks loose, we will have a little more joy in the presence of the Lord.

Few people read these words, I know.  I have asked the Lord before "why bother?"  The answer?  He does not reckon things the way the world does.  If these words reach one person, just one then I am to write here until the Lord returns for us or I go to the Lord naturally whichever comes first.

What value does the Lord put on one soul?  

Luke 15 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. ² But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”

³ Then Jesus told them this parable: ⁴ “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders ⁶ and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ ⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

The Lord would have this writer spend whatever time it takes to write here for one, just one soul.  If more are touched, wonderful.  If not, the labor is worth that single solitary soul (of infinite value) brought into the kingdom.

M7.3 Japan, M6.2 Japan, M6.3 New Zealand ALL TODAY, Be Ready for the Return of the Lord (The Escape not the 'Second Coming')

http://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/earthquake.php?id=296231

http://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/earthquake.php?id=296235

http://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/earthquake.php?id=296288

A very large earthquake just struck Japan (edit now another large Japan quake plus the NZ quake).  The timing of these large quakes in December is a neon sign for us to be watching and ready.  Watching and ready for what?  The Lord.  Not the 'second coming' but the escape from all arrival of the Lord.  As opposed to the other tribbers, we pre-trib believers are looking for the Lord every day.  We are not looking for the anti-Christ, the tribulation etc, we are watching for the Lord.

Do we see signs of the anti-Christ and the tribulation everywhere?  Yes, so we watch even more intently for the arrival of the Lord.  There is an escape from all coming, it is certain.  This morning the Lord led me across a beautiful promise that addresses this very thing in Psalm 91:

1He that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3Surely he shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence.

What do we see here?^^  He shall deliver you from the SNARE of the fowler...how interesting.  And what do we see here:

Luke 21:34And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. 35For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

How many more ways could the Lord spell it out to us?  And yet more than ever today so many live in denial of His promises.  What does "escape" mean?  What does "all" mean?  What does "deliver" mean?  What does "snare" mean?  Really, how hard is this to comprehend?  Pray that you may be counted worthy to 1.  ESCAPE 2. ALL these things that shall come to pass.  3.  SURELY He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler...what does "surely" mean?  The Lord said SURELY He shall deliver you from the snare, what does that mean?  How can these people live in denial of these promises?  How would the Lord have to write it to explain it in any clearer language?

And yet we read the scoffing denials in growing number today.  We are called escapists in a derogatory way when the Lord, not us told us to pray for escape.

They ask us what about if the pre-trib rapture position is wrong but they never stop to consider what if they are wrong about the 'pre-wrath' and 'post-trib' rapture?  What happens when the Lord comes and leaves and they are left behind because of their lack of faith.  The Lord made promises, and we inherit those promises BY FAITH and patience:

Hebrews 6:12 

We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.

There is an escape from all coming.  It is 100% rock solid certainty.  Is that good news?  You bet it is.  There is deliverance from the snare coming, that is certain, but do we believe the promises?  Do we have faith?  We inherit through faith and patience, that is the Word of the Lord.  Let us nail down with certainty in our hearts what we believe.  If we lack faith let us ask the Lord for more while His grace and mercy are extended to this world.

I hope you are as encouraged as I am by this highlighting of the promises in Psalm 91 and Luke 21:36.  Our position is to watch and be ready every day.  There is no doctrine or teaching any of the 'other tribbers' have that can outperform this position.  We are watching and we will continue to watch with great endurance and patience until our Bridegroom arrives for us.  This is what we were commanded to do.  When the Master finds us doing what we were commanded to do, it is reasonable to expect things will go well for us.

These large earthquakes are signs that the Lord is approaching.  Make no mistake about it:

Isaiah 29:6 

the LORD Almighty will come with thunder and earthquake and great noise, with windstorm and tempest and flames of a devouring fire.

With the signs of His approach before us should we be watching?  Yes, we should be watching for the Bridegroom who arrives at an unexpected day and hour for the Bride.  The Bride and Bridegroom hide away in the bridal chamber for 7 days before revealing themselves to the world.  You do the math here.  7 days?  7 year tribulation period/time of Jacob's trouble?  Coincidence?  I don't think so.

Be encouraged, the Lord approaches.  Let us be found watching and ready when the Master arrives for us.

The Sun is Going Ballistic

Look at the massive flare coming out of the sun.  Over the past 24 hours or so there has been some strange activity up there.  When the sun starts going crazy with activity we should take notice.  Why?

Revelation 16:8 

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire.

and

Luke 21:25

... “And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves,

And speaking of the roaring of the seas and the waves check this out.

The sea is overtaking Ft Lauderdale beach and AIA for no apparent reason.  There is no storm off the coast and no other reason they can use to explain this away...its just happening.  Why is that?  We don't have to explain why, we just have to observe and take note.  Its up to them to find excuses for the growing number of "this isn't usual" occurrences in the world.

Be watching, be ready.  grace and peace

Magnitude Mw 6.4 Earthquake-VANUATU

http://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/earthquake.php?id=295556

Just an FYI

The Escape From All Rapture

A quick note of encouragement for us today.  The escape from all is certainly coming.  People can call it whatever they want, rapture, escape whatever.  Fact is, whatever happened to Noah and Lot, something like that is going to happen for us as well.  That is a guaranteed fact.

The Lord does not tell us exactly when it will happen but He does tell us it will be "before the flood."  That piece of timing info is critical to our understanding.  When did Noah enter the ark?  BEFORE the flood.  And what was the flood?  Judgement.

So before judgement hits, we are out of here.  The judgement that is coming must be very severe because even now we see the earth being judged and some of the things happening to the earth today are frightening.

Here is what the Lord tells us:

Matt 24:36“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,^f but only the Father. 37As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.38For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

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.

It is this unknown day and hour we are looking for.  Notice the Words used in Matt 24:
42“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.

and compare to this:

Luke 21:34“Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. 35For it will come upon all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

What do we see in both places?  Keep watch, unknown day of arrival of the Lord, escape from all, business as usual in the world up till the day Noah entered the ark.  That day will close on people like a trap.  Why?  Business as usual day after day after day and then WHAM, the trap shuts and those who are ready escape those who are not ready suffer.

Where else do we see this idea of readiness for an unexpected day?  Flip from Matt 24 to Matt 25 and there we have it again:

Matt 256“At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

7“Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’

9“‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

10“But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

The virgins who were ready went in to the wedding and the door was shut.

We can be absolutely certain about this:  Noah escaped all the judgement in his day, Lot escaped all the judgement in his day, and we will escape all the judgement in our day if we are watching and ready.  Is that encouraging to you?  It is to me.

In the past I argued with the scoffers and deniers endlessly.  The days of debate are over. All of us do not have the same level of faith.  Some of us believe the Lord for alot more than others do.  Some of us believe the Lord for exactly what He promised.  Others just do not have the faith to take the Lord at His Word exactly as it was written.  If the Lord told us to pray for an escape from all,  then there must be an escape from all.  What the Lord said He would do, He absolutely will do.

People can continue to debate all they want.  The debates settle nothing.  You can't argue a person with little faith into having more faith, its just that simple.  And it is by faith that we take hold of the promises.

Hebrews 6:12 

... so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

So if the Lord promised an escape, and certain people do not have the faith to lay hold of that promise, do they still inherit that promise?  Not according to this Word above.  THROUGH FAITH and patience we inherit the promises.  Period.  As you believe so you receive.  Don't believe the promises?  Then you do not receive them.  A perfect example is right here:

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 happened to the centurion?  He received as he believed.  The Lord told him it would be done to him just as he believed.

So many Christians today believe they will not escape all that is about to happen.  The Lord told us to pray that we may escape all that is about to happen but because these people do not believe, they do not pray according to the command given to us.  What will the result be?  We will find out soon enough.

This writer believes that the Lord meant everything He said.  It is true that some things were written in plain language and others appear to be mysteries, but at a minimum we should believe the  things written in plain language as it was written.

What does "pray" mean?  What does "escape" mean?  What does "all" mean?  Are these not written plain enough for us?  It is written plain enough.

 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

People understand the words in their mind but they cannot lay hold of the promise because of their lack of faith.

Where are the faith preachers today?  I hear about everything else but faith.  Without faith it is impossible to please God.  Remember that.  Remember the Lord's rhetorical question as well:

Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God ...

And without faith it is impossible to please God,

Luke 18:8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and ...

... Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”

As we believe, so we receive from the Lord.  Or were the apostles foolish for making this request to the Lord:

Luke 17:5The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

If our faith is lacking what should we do?  Ask for more.  Ask, seek, knock, pray!  The Lord is faithful.

This post was written to encourage you.  As we see the day approaching, let us take the Lord at His Word.  If any of us doubt, let us ask the Lord to teach us.  He Himself will teach us:

1 John 2:27 But you have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don't need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true--it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.

Conclusion:

There is an escape from all coming and we must pray for it.  If we are lacking in faith let us pray for more.  Who knows how much time is left?  The appearance of things is that time is short.  Lets also remember to be patient. 

grace and peace

Another Astrophysicist Dead

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2239773/Steven-Rawlings-Academic-restrained-Oxford-University-Professor-fatal-headlock-EMAILED-tragic-news-victims-wife.html

No question, if you look out into space for a living these days you are part of one of the most deadly professions on earth.  The string of deaths has been strange to put it mildly, and the causes of death questionable.

Why would so many astronomers and astrophysicists die in so short a time?  The destroyer is inbound and somebody does not want people to know about it.

Somebody is trying to hide something and they are willing to murder to do it.

Why is this written here?  Many of the judgments found in the book of Revelation come from above, from the heavens, from the sky etc.  This world is desperate to buy itself some time and delay the inevitable.  Sin and rebellion comes with a price, and payment is coming due.

Pictures Worth A Thousand Words

I can write all day about the high strangeness coming to this world.  Something is happening to the earth.  This video documents what we are talking about.

Question is, is any of this normal?  No
If its not normal, why is it happening?
The last question is, who do so few people care?

Take all the facts and run a thread through them, what do the facts point to?

Would you call the events in that video "destructive" events?  I would.

What can the righteous do in the face of these facts?  They can turn to their God who has protected them, who has provided for them.  They can also point out what is happening to an unbelieving world to at least attempt to snatch some from the fire that is certainly coming.

One man plants a seed, another waters it but only the Lord makes it grow.  We can plant seeds.

As of today the internet has completely gone offline in Syria, what's about to happen there?

As of today the Palestinian state just took a leap forward.  Could this event be a precursor to the covenant with many (Daniel 9:27)?

Try to step back and see the big picture.  We must be getting close.

Grace and peace.

M 6.0, Massive Sinkhole Ohio

First we see the USGS again not reporting and or shaving the data to keep earthquakes under certain thresholds.  When I go to the USGS site and look for earthquakes today at 6.0 or over, it shows nothing.  When I go here I see a 6.0 just struck off the coast of Papua New Guinea.

Another thing to notice about the USGS, when they adjust quake strengths they always always always downgrade quakes, and never once ever have we seen them upgrade a quake....ever.  Realistic?  Probably not.  Are they working at hiding what is happening to the earth?  It appears so.

Second we see a 4 football field long sinkhole in Ohio that is growing.  These sinkholes are being seen all over the world in diverse places.  This phenomenon can be tied to all the gas line explosions we have been seeing in the news of late.  Something is happening below the surface of the earth,   something massive, and the 'news' experts will never ever do the analysis to connect the dots for us.  We have to do that ourselves.

If these things were happening in isolation perhaps we could leave them alone, but they are happening at the same time as record drought, record tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, fires, volcanic activities, animal deaths, signs in the sun moon and stars, etc.  This is all happening together right now.

What does this mean?  What does the Lord say?  The Lord said this:

<< Isaiah 24 >> The Lord’s Devastation of the Earth 1See, the Lord is going to lay waste the earth and devastate it; he will ruin its face and scatter its inhabitants— 2it will be the same for priest as for people, for master as for servant, for mistress as for maid, for seller as for buyer, for borrower as for lender, for debtor as for creditor. 3The earth will be completely laid waste and totally plundered. The Lord has spoken this word. 4The earth dries up and withers, the world languishes and withers, the exalted of the earth languish. 5The earth is defiled by its people; they have disobeyed the laws, violated the statutes and broken the everlasting covenant. 6Therefore a curse consumes the earth; its people must bear their guilt. Therefore earth’s inhabitants are burned up, and very few are left. 7The new wine dries up and the vine withers; all the merrymakers groan. 8The gaiety of the tambourines is stilled, the noise of the revelers has stopped, the joyful harp is silent. 9No longer do they drink wine with a song; the beer is bitter to its drinkers. 10The ruined city lies desolate; the entrance to every house is barred. 11In the streets they cry out for wine; all joy turns to gloom, all gaiety is banished from the earth. 12The city is left in ruins, its gate is battered to pieces. 13So will it be on the earth and among the nations, as when an olive tree is beaten, or as when gleanings are left after the grape harvest.

Notice with me the Lord is addressing the whole earth, not just one country. And before the scoffers get out their favorite argument "oh, this all happened way back when,  its not in the future"  we can call that a lie in advance.  Note specifically the Lord says 1.  the whole earth will be affected.  2. It will wipe out almost all of humanity on earth (very few left) and 3.  It will be done by FIRE-the inhabitants of the earth will be burned up.

When did that happen worldwide in the past?  It did not.

The Lord told us what He is going to do, and why He is doing it.

What is the lesson for us?  We must be watching and ready.  We should be doing the things the Lord would have us do.  Give thanks, pray and tremble in fear.  Did brother D say fear?  That's right, fear.  It's called the fear of the Lord.  It is written throughout the Bible.  Today's Babylonian Christianity has no place for the fear of the Lord.

Proverbs 15:33 

The fear of the LORD teaches a man wisdom, and humility comes before honor.

Proverbs 16:6 

Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for; through the fear of the LORD a man avoids evil

Proverbs 1:23If you had responded to my rebuke,

I would have poured out my heart to you

and made my thoughts known to you.

24But since you rejected me when I called

and no one gave heed when I stretched out my hand,

25since you ignored all my advice

and would not accept my rebuke,

26I in turn will laugh at your disaster;

I will mock when calamity overtakes you—

27when calamity overtakes you like a storm,

when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind,

when distress and trouble overwhelm you.

28“Then they will call to me but I will not answer;

they will look for me but will not find me.

29Since they hated knowledge

and did not choose to fear the Lord,

30since they would not accept my advice

and spurned my rebuke,

31they will eat the fruit of their ways

and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.

32For the waywardness of the simple will kill them,

and the complacency of fools will destroy them;

33but whoever listens to me will live in safety

and be at ease, without fear of harm.”

Should we choose to fear the Lord?  Yea, I think so and the time to do it is now.

grace and peace

More Water Turned to Blood

Read the story here.

This is the third location we have seen this year.  We had Lebanon, China and now Australia about evenly spaced out this year.  Every time this happens, the world gives us an excuse for why.  That excuse can be tossed out the window.  In the first two cases we were told that 'dye manufacturers' turned the rivers blood red.  There were no dye manufacturers in the areas affected which is why no specifics were given, just a vague excuse.

In this case an algae bloom is blamed but note with me they cant even get their own story straight.  Read the above article and look toward the bottom where the guy is swimming in the pool next to the sea.  Note what they say:

"A swimmer sticks to the safety of a pool after the algae transformed the surrounding sea. Tests are underway to find out what caused the phenomenon"


But wait a minute?  Didn't they already tell us (lie) that it was an "algae bloom" that caused this?  If it was then why conduct tests to find out what caused the phenomenon?  They shove excuses through the door first thing, notice that.  Next they 'conduct tests' that are never (conveniently for them) released to the public because people forget and move on.

Lets not forget.  There is a lesson here.  The lesson is that every event in the book of Revelation will have a corresponding excuse given by the world as to why things are happening.  For now that works but soon the things that will be happening will not be explained away so easily.  People buy lame excuses because they do not want to believe what is happening before their eyes....

The Lord has a plan for these people in denial.  Here is that plan:

2 Thess 2:9The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, 10and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. 

They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 

11For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
