Where you going?

Praying all is well with you!
                                              Well, I have to admit, that as I have grown a little fond of ravens over the last couple of years, I am glad to see that the Ravens hung in there and pulled off, what I hear, was a pretty amazing Super Bowl win last week!
 
Praise the LORD as we complete our first month of a year that many profits were trying to say would never come!  Thank God we have a bible to study to protect us from false alarms!
 
1 Thessalonians 5:4
But ye, brethren, are NOT in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

 
Now if we can just get people to study their bible to see what it says compared to what people are trying to convince them that it says! 
 
I have not been in the church a long time, but, I have been in it long enough to see that the far majority of Christians just take what they hear on the TV from a sermon or wherever they may get their sermon and just accept it as truth, seldomly, comparing what they are hearing to what is written in God's Word. In fact, here is something you can compare to what you might very well be hearing from behind the pulpit at any moment!
 
Let me also say that this is not written to take away from the position of pastors as the bible is quite clear that God has set up pastors.  I feel that the best of pastors would never want you to take their word for anything without comparing it to Gods' Word! Even Luke mentioned in The Book of Acts that the Bereans were of a noble character because they searched the scriptures daily to see if the things that Paul had mentioned were true.
 
Acts 17:11
These were more noble (fair minded) than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

 
First and second Thessalonians consists of eight chapters combined or 136 verses. Could anyone, PLEASE, tell me after reading all eight chapters where you can find that the restrainer that is withholding in 2 Thessalonians 2:6 is the Holy Spirit which will be removed from the earth, so, that the anti christ can be revealed?  Don't you dare send me a copy of the "Left Behind" series to prove it!  
 
Remember this!, in verse 6, Paul says,  "And now ye KNOW what withholdeth"   so whatever is withholding, has to be able to be identified by what the reader has just read and NOT just watched!
 
The only thing I read that has to do with withholding is 3 verses earlier in verse 3, when Paul says that, "That Day shall NOT come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition."  I think it's safe to say that those two events are withholding "The Day of The LORD" which has been the theme of the previous chapters of Thessalonians.
 
In fact, although verse 8, is clearly, talking about the anti christ being revealed, I would say that the He in verse 6 is talking about The LORD being revealed and NOT the anti christ at all! After all, it was just mentioned another eight verses earlier that JESUS was going to be revealed.
 
2 Thessalonians 1:7
And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the LORD Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels.

 
Well, I really did not intend to get into the letters to the Thessalonians at all in this letter;
 
So, let's see where you are going!
 
I heard a story a long time ago about a man that went to a restaurant and ordered a bowl of soup.  When his soup came there was a fly in his soup.  When the waiter returned the man asked the waiter "Could you please tell me what this fly is doing in my soup?"  The waiter stared into the soup at the fly for a moment and then the waiter replied to the customer "It appears to be doing the back stroke!"
 
I was reading in The Book of Joshua recently and had a vision of some of us as Christians possibly doing a little back stroking in our little bowl of soup!
 
Joshua 24:14
Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve Him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.

 
It seems that some had crossed the waters of the flood into the truth, but, decided to get back into the water and do a little back stroking towards the gods they had previously served. Sometimes now, I think some, may, just be treading the water. Instead of back stroking all the way to the gods of their fathers, they just try to tread the water and meet the gods of their fathers half way with the truth. Maybe it seems too evil to dislike statues and idols after plugging into the Living Presence of God and not needing such meaningless things anymore!
 
Joshua 24:15
And if it seems evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

 
Interesting that Joshua did NOT say "As for me, I will serve the LORD and the rest of my house can do whatever they want."  What better way to give thanks to God than to show Him the respect He deserves by keeping our house clean of idols and things that dishonor Him, even if, the way seems long at times and the neighbors seem to be able to do whatever they
want and get away with it. 
 
Psalm 73:2-3
But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

 
Whens the last time you spanked your neighbors kids?  Probably never, because, you don't spank those that are not yours!  Don't be surprised if our God is tougher on us than He is on those around us!
 
2 Peter 2:21
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.

 
Please don't let any of this get you down because God only disciplines those He loves!

Hebrews 12:6
For whom the LORD loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth, If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
But if ye be WITHOUT chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and NOT sons.
 
God is GoOD!         All the time!
 
Have a blessed day! 
and be sure to tell someone about JESUS!

Is The Phoenix Coming?

1/26/2013

God is good!
                     I pray all is well as we move into 2013! I heard recently that 2012 was the warmest year ever and I would say that so far with 14 days into January and temperatures in the 50s or more, we are into a good start for a match this year.

What a time we are having serving the LORD here in Virginia and as always I hope you are having the same experience where ever you are!

While this may not be the most exciting letter to many, I believe this information will be good for believers to be aware of. While many have been preaching a best selling movie, God has given us the information inside His Word to be aware of the end time events that we will go through, and just how much of it we will be here for, before "His Church" is actually taken out of here. I have heard it said by Christian after Christian that they do NOT like to read "The Book of Revelation", BUT, look what The Word of God actually says about those who DO read it!
 
Revelation 1:3
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophesy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.


Regardless of how you feel about reading The Book of Revelation, you are given a PROMISE to be blessed by reading, understanding and keeping the things that are written inside it's pages! I think it's safe to say, IF you don't read it, you will NEVER know what things you are suppose to do!

You will be BLESSED because you will understand that EVERYTHING is going just as GOD said it would while others tremble with great fear as in the days of the Exodus nearly 3400 years ago!

If you are not familiar with what a "Phoenix" is, let me assure you, it will be very easy for you to figure out if you are living inside the United States of America. All you need to do to get a close glimpse as to what a "Phoenix" is, is grab a one dollar bill out of your pocket and check out the back side of it! That strange looking Eagle on the back of your dollar was actually a "Phoenix" about 100 years ago and was modified to look more like an Eagle at that time. You can still tell that it is a "Phoenix" and not an Eagle if you really take a good look at it.

The Phoenix bird in legend would die and burn, plus, it would reappear later. In ancient cultures, it represented the false sun god (even a peacock or a strange feathered bird) or even Lucifer. That is why occult Secret Societies to this day outline a worship of Lucifer (or Satan). The Phoenix was called the shining one, which is an old name for Lucifer ironically.

2018 has been set as a projected year to establish a world wide currency that will replace the current dollar that is being used. This new currency, if the projected date sticks, will be known as "The Phoenix" which also means to "Rise from the Ashes" For some reason this kind of information seems to bum a lot of people out but it just makes me jump for joy as I see the pages of the bible unfolding right before our eyes as we move into the "Time of Jacobs Trouble."

Jeremiah 30:7
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even "The Time of Jacobs Trouble"; but he shall be saved out of it.


I remember an email a year or two ago from one of you that did not like me using the word "but" all the time in my emails, BUT, I bet your glad that one is in there! Now all we have to know is just WHEN will believers be saved out of it!

What kind of hope would you really have if you were not given a word almost 2600 years ago in The Book of Daniel and almost 2000 years ago in the Book of Revelation for our time today and see it unfold with such perfect timing as Jesus' approach to Lazarus four days AFTER he was dead? He's ALWAYS on time, so, all we need to do is just keep praising Him for the incredible information He has given His Prophets in The Word of God and the accuracy of the Word they were given!

Don't forget! The Book of Daniel is like a commentary for The Book of Revelation, so, be sure to put them both together or the "Profits" will be sure to confuse you!

Daniel 12:9
And he said, Go thy way Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.


Interesting that the Book of Daniel is becoming more easy to understand as each day passes by!

It was mentioned yesterday in the service by one of the leaders in the English service, "If your neighbors house was on fire, wouldn't you try your best to make sure they knew and were out of dangers way before they were engulfed in the flames?" How much more should we be letting those next to us today know that there is only ONE WAY to escape the dangers that are coming upon many in "The Time of Jacobs Trouble!"

        Have a blessed week! and be SURE to tell someone today about JESUS!

Does God LOVE Everybody?

12/25/2012

0 Comments

 
God bless you!
                            I pray you are keeping your joy as we move through this season of the christmas spirit! I had the privilege of spending about 9 hours or so in a local Christian store on Saturday and see first hand how even Christians can get caught up in the rush! As I left the store a few times throughout the day though, I have to admit, the atmosphere was still better there in the store with the few grumbling Christians than outside the store where it almost appeared to be a free for all with still 3 days to go to the day! Although I was not able to sell many books in the store that day, I praise God for the opportunity to have been able to speak with so many Christians throughout the day from many denominations and share my biblical understanding and at the same time get to listen to their biblical views.

In fact, I thought that one conversation with a pastor that came in was going to turn into a church service right there in the store! I could not help but laugh as I could see him wondering if the long line was worth the wait for what he was buying after he had just told me "Ken, being a pastor is all about patience!" Praise God he had patience because I was praying for him to endure the wait as he was checking out with one of my books in his hand! We did manage to laugh together for a moment as he was leaving the store, when I reminded him what he had just told me about patience!

Anyway, Does God love everybody?

That's actually an easy question to answer and would simply be "YES" and there are really no ifs, ands or buts about that, BUT, the real question would be "Does everybody love God?" God has to love everybody or He would not have died on that cross almost 2000 years ago so that everyone could at least have the chance to be with Him in eternity and survive it one day!
 
In one conversation with a lady in the store on Saturday, that was a teacher at her church, she mentioned the fact that she found it so hard to witness to people anymore because they just seemed so cold towards God. I really had no idea what I would say to her but I was actually witnessing to myself also as the words came out. I reminded her that the Word of God tells us that there is a day coming on this earth when not one more person will repent and receive the good news, so, do not be discouraged as we continue to see God's Word coming to pass, but ,at the same time we must continue to do the best we can! She replied with a big sigh "Yes, we must".

Revelation 9:20-21 King James Version
 
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.



If you thought 777 was just something they made up in sin city otherwise known as Las Vegas, God had His own 777 in the makings about 2000 years ago with the 7 seals beginning in Revelation Chapter 6, the 7 trumpets beginning in Revelation Chapter 8:6, and the final 7 vials beginning in Revelation 16.

When we consider these two verses from Revelation Chapter 9 and understand the context, we see that the sixth trumpet judgement has just been unleashed upon the earth and two witnesses appear on the scene to prove for one last time that God DOES love EVERYBODY, BUT, NOT EVERYBODY loves God! Although we actually read about the two witnesses in Revelation Chapter 11, their ministry will take place sometime during the sixth trumpet just before the unleashing of the seventh trumpet. The judgement of the sixth trumpet is read in Revelation 9:13-21. If you are not familiar with the trumpet judgements, there are actually seven of them in total. After the first four are unleashed, the last three of them are also known as the THREE WOES which we read in Revelation 8:13.

Revelation 8:13 King James Version
And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!


So if we continue to read about these last two end time evangelists, that are bringing God's love to a world that is about to totally reject God, we see that their ministry will last about as long as Jesus' ministry lasted after He was baptized.

Revelation 11:3 King James Version
And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days (1260 days or 3 1/2 prophetic years), clothed in sackcloth.

At the end of their ministry they will actually experience something quite similar to what Jesus Himself experienced at the end of His earthly ministry. We will see that they are eventually killed by those who probably claimed to love God but obviously loved a god other than the Only True God!

John 16:2 King James Version
They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.



Revelation 11:8-9 King James Version
And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.



Now before there was a TV in every bedroom, at every gas station pump , and probably at least millions more after today, you may have wondered how the whole world could have ever seen such an event everywhere at the same time, but, as we approach this time that was prophesied nearly 2000 years ago we see that it is very possible to happen today! We also see that the people that kill them will rejoice for a short time just as those that crucified the LORD had their short time of rejoicing.

Revelation 11:10 King James Version
And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.


Well at first glance it may seem that these two were out of line by bringing God's Word to places it was now against the law to speak it, but, apparently God didn't have any problem with them delivering His Word where ever they desired!

Revelation 11:11-12 King James Version
And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

I think it's very exciting to see at the end of their ministry that just as God loves everybody, He is also faithful to those who love Him! I have heard that this exchanging of gifts is an ordinary custom in the muslim religion but I have also personally seen christians that sometimes look as if they would kill you if you mess with their christmas! I'm no bible scholar or scholar on Islam, so really at this time I'm not sure which it is but I can promise you this! When you see two men on TV that are laying in the streets of Jerusalem dead for 3 1/2 days and everybody is getting ready for a holiday feast with gifts in their hands ,you will know for sure you would have been better off to keep the Feasts in Leviticus 23!

               Have a blessed CHRISTmas and be praying against CLIFFmas! 
                                
Be SURE to tell SOMEONE about JESUS!

Women Are Like Butterflies

11/27/2012

Welcome,
                 I remember hearing it said a long time ago that men are like buffalo and women are like butterflies. If you set a rock on a buffalo nothing will happen but if you set that same rock on the butterfly you will CRUSH it!  Let's face it, men and women are wired very different but in recent years society has begun to put more and more pressure on women to produce like men in the work field and in almost anything else you can think of today.

Picture
Picture
I remember a conversation with a Christian woman that said she was the only woman on her job.  She mentioned the conversations of the non- Christian men that she had to hear each day as she continued on in her job.  It has become almost more normal than not to just speak what ever foul thing enters a persons mind without even considering that it could possibly offend anyone.  Personally I have very seldom watched TV for almost 13 years now. However, when I am around one I can see why people speak the way they do!

It seems the American norm today is to put in eight hours or so on the job, come home and plop down on the lazy boy or couch, grab a remote and call it a day.  Fill the mind with the evening garbage and unload it on whoever may be in your path the next day. 

I recently heard that the word Breakfast came from the fact that it was the meal that many Christians in this country used to end their fasting. BREAK-FAST. I can only wonder how many people in this country, now, even know what the word "Fast" means in a biblical sense.

How far have we slipped in such a short time?  Less than 50 years ago, Hollywood would not even put a married couple in the same bed on TV for the public because of the values they had for what people saw.  Not that it was wrong for a married couple to be in the same bed because SURELY the bible blesses that, but, just for the simple fact it did not seem proper to put that vision in the mind of people they did not even know.

As America slumbers behind the remote control, another rock is creeping in upon today's women, it's called "Sharia Law".  If you are reading this and think that is just for other countries you really might want to reconsider the thought!  Each day as this country pushes the Name of their God further and further towards the back burner, the name of another god is quickly moving upon them.  The following is a video of what women and all people have to look forward to if they ever fall into "Sharia Law".

                                    WOMEN IN THE HANDS OF SHARIA LAW

You may be wondering what one person like yourself can do about something like this.  Quite honestly there is nothing you can do alone, BUT, if your God is JESUS CHRIST, He can make a world of difference through you, one soul at a time!  Don't be distracted by the time consuming television.  Learn how to fast and understand the meaning of BreakFast and be a vessel that God can use in these last days.  It's not enough to just believe in God, we need to know the NAME of our God!

God bless you!

What Are The Profits Saying?

11/18/2012

1 Comment

 

Praise God!
                      Well, as South America comes close to moving into summer we are surely getting close to winter here in the USA.  I pray all is well with everyone, wherever, you may be at this present time!  I have never had so many people ask me what I thought about an elected president as I have had them ask me after the election we just had.  Honestly, it's not a subject I care to get into but I can tell you the same thing I have told all of them,
"I can see that you have NOT read my book!"
 
I will have to give President Obama some real credit for one thing that I just read on Sunday 11/18/2012 from Today News.  It reads likes this;

 "Meanwhile, President Barack Obama said he fully supported Israel's right to defend itself and called for an end to the firing of missiles into Israel by militants inside Gaza in order for a peace process to go ahead."
 
Praise God for that surprising statement! Peace Peace! Who doesn't know we sure could use that in this world!  Not sure how you do that without JESUS, but, none the less it sure sounds good!  Now if we can just get a few changes on his view for gay marriage and abortion we might be able to go somewhere, because that's the only way this country will have God's favor!
 
The bible instructs us to pray for our leaders, so let's keep the President in prayer, because if he's there, it's because God wants him there.
 
1 Timothy 2:1-2  I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;  For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
 
 
You have to remember, when God gave us His Word, He gave us what He had already seen happen.  There are many Profits today trying to change what God saw, BUT be sure, what God gave us will come to pass.
 
Matthew 24:35  Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.
  
 What did God say about December 21, 2012? 
 
That one is quite easy!  "NOTHING!, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!" and if you don't believe that, PLEASE, send me an email on December 22, 2012 and I will explain in more detail why I said that.
  
As end time talk begins to get a little more confusing each and every day the closer we get to it, how do we know who to believe or is it even possible for anyone to really know what time it is?, as the old song goes! 
 
1st Corinthians 14:33  For God is NOT the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
  

Time and time again we hear that often quoted verse from Matthew 24,
 
Matthew 24:36  But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
  
Now I have to admit, that verse is very clear, but at the same time, we often ignore what was said by the same Prophet just three verses earlier.
 
Matthew 24:33  So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
  
Many months ago I did a letter about what Simon saw in Acts Chapter 8, but now, let's look at what Daniel saw in Daniel Chapter 7.  Please keep in mind that The Book of Daniel is like a commentary for the Book of Revelation!
 
Daniel 7:28  Hitherto (Here) is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations (thoughts) much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.
 
You have to understand that what Daniel is referring to here is the vision he had just had of the four beasts and the role that the fourth beast will play in end time events.  Daniel also mentioned the persecution of the saints by the anti christ himself just before the Return of Christ when the Kingdom was then given into the hands of His People.
 
Daniel 7:25  And he (anti christ) shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws; and they (saints) shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. (3 1/2 years which is the second half of the 7 year Great Tribulation)

  
 
 Time = 1 year   Times = 2 years    Dividing of time = 1/2 year   For a total of 3 1/2 years  
       (this alsconnects to the 42 months or 1,260 days mentioned in Revelation 12)

 
God informed His People on the terrible times that would come to pass, just before the day of His Return to keep His People from being a big part of the Great Falling Away mentioned in 2 Thessalonians 2:3.
 
2 Thessalonians 2:3  Let no man deceive you by any means; for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.
 
The Great Falling Away will be a time when many that once stood in the faith will begin to deny their faith due to the persecution against Christians during the Great Tribulation. We know there has been persecution against Christians in the past, but, we were told in Matthew 24 that the persecution to come just before the Second Coming would exceed any persecution that there has ever been!  BUT on the bright side, it also tells us it will be the LAST time they are ever persecuted!
 
Matthew 24:21  For then shall be Great Tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
 
Although most Profits these days will try to tell you, you won't be here anyway, let's look closer at what God really said to His People about the matter! 
 
First, I think it is important to define the word "tribulation" and how this is related to God's wrath (anger and judgment). There are two Greek words most often used to describe tribulation events, and in many instances, they are used together in the same verse. The first word is diwgmos (Strong's #G1375), which occurs 10 times in the New Testament and is translated "persecution(s)" in all major English translations. This word always refers to the persecution of believers by non-believers.
 
The second word is thlipsis (Strong's #G2347), which occurs 45 times in the New Testament and is translated "tribulation(s)," "affliction(s)," "anguish," "distress," "persecution," or "trouble." In 42 of these 45 occurrences, the word refers to the suffering, believers, received at the hands of non-believers.
 
One of the other 3 refer to the sufferings of Joseph when he was sold into slavery at the hands of his brothers, another to the sufferings of people during the famine of that time, and only one refers to the suffering of those who commit evil. On this basis alone, one would seem to be on shaky ground in assuming that the tribulation is reserved only for non-believers (since it only refers to non-believers in only 2% of all verses).
 
In contrast, two different Greek words are used to describe the suffering of non-believers at the hand of God. The first word is thumos (Strong's #G2372), which occurs in 18 verses in the New Testament and is translated "angry tempers," "fierce," "indignation," outbursts of anger," "passion," "rage," and "wrath." In nine of those 18 verses, the term specifically refers to the anger and judgment of God against the unrighteous  (the other 9 refer to the anger of people against each other).
 
The second word is orgay (Strong's #G3709), which occurs in 34 verses in the New Testament and is translated "anger" or "wrath." Twenty-eight of those verses refer to the wrath of God (or Jesus) against the unrighteous, one refers to the persecution of believers,  and five refer to anger of people against each other. 
 
Therefore, whereas tribulation almost always refers to the persecution of believers, wrath almost always refers to the anger of God against the unrighteous that results in punishment.
 
All this that God gave us is to encourage us to continue on even in the toughest of times.  Many that fell for false doctrine will feel abandoned by God because they are still here during that difficult time and become a part of the great falling away.  Each one of us is responsible to study and check what we hear with God's Word at all times.
 
Well, I try to keep these letters short, but, as you can see I have not been able to do it once again.  I will cut this here as I understand better, letter after letter, why the LORD led me to put this all together in an easy to read book!  If you have not read
"The Ten Minute Tribulation" you really ought to do so, especially while it is still on sale at Amazon.com!
 
It's not about the book!  It's about God's people being prepared for the Great Tribulation AND His Second Coming! 
 
Have a great day!
and be SURE to tell someone on the job or wherever you may be about JESUS!

I pray all is well with you!
                                      I want to thank some of you that purchased
"The Ten Minute Tribulation" a couple of weeks ago after I announced that Amazon was selling it at an unbelievable low price. If you were not able to get it then I have some good news for you! Don't ask me how they are able to do it, BUT, when God wants something done, HE ALWAYS makes a way! Somehow "The Ten Minute Tribulation" has been made available for only $1.64! It is possible that there is only 13 left at this price but grab it and be blessed if you have not yet read it! Don't fall for anymore of those phony U TURN rapture stories!!! If you NEVER know the TRUTH, You will NEVER know the lies!

You can click any of the book titles to go directly to Amazon and get your copy today!
 
Now let me get into the topic I mentioned in the heading "What Storm Are You Going Through?"

On Saturday night I visited a small local church here in the Fairfax area and there was a lot of talk about the storm that is approaching the east coast in the next day or so. As the talk continued, I saw a lady come into the church in a wheel chair and suddenly I realized that the approaching storm is nothing compared to the storms that some people are facing every day. All of the talk and hype on Hurricane Sandy will be over in just a couple of days, but, what storm will you be facing when this one has passed?

Luke 8:22-25 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that He went into a ship with His disciples; and He said unto them, Let us go unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. BUT, as they sailed He fell asleep; and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. And they came to Him, and awoke Him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then He arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm. And He said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for He commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey Him.

Maybe Jesus is napping again as another storm grows, and once again, He is testing the faith of His followers! Waiting to see if we have put our eyes on where we are heading and thinking we have everything under control without JESUS. Sometimes it takes a storm to get His disciples to call on Him like they mean it! Oh, if we could just call on the Name of the LORD like there was a storm approaching on the days when the sky is blue and the smoke from our favorite restaurant is blowing our way! If, we could just see the storm in some people's lives on the bluest and sunniest days that is far worse than Hurricane Sandy could ever be!
 
One thing amazed me as I watched this lady in the church going through her storm in the wheel chair. She was smiling in the middle of her storm, while some in the church, were frowning about the storm that is coming. The more I thought about that, the more I wondered at how nice it would be,If, that where ever this storm hits the most, how awesome would it be if the people in that area praised God and called on His Name, as hard as the winds outside are blowing!
 
I remember a major tornado that hit LaPlata, Md on a Sunday about 10 years ago and when I walked through the damage the next day I passed by a few people at different times that I knew from various churches in the area. Trying to have compassion on them as I walked through the unbelievable destruction, I asked each one if they had lost their house not being able to comprehend how it would be possible not to have lost it in this area. To my surprise a few different individuals I spoke with all had about the same story. Most everything around them was destroyed but somehow their house was not touched!
 
What a PROMISE we have in Psalm 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; BUT it shall NOT come nigh thee!

When you reach the "other side" of this storm be sure to give JESUS ALL THE GLORY for bringing peace during and after it! Whether your storm is called Sandy or Dandy, call on JESUS, and find peace in the middle of it. Praise God for the storm! A time to thank HIM for the ones your gonna be couped up with during the storm!

God bless you! AND be SURE to tell someone on the job about JESUS!

How About That Shadow!

10/8/2012

0 Comments

 
God is GoOD, all the time!
                                            What a nice week it has been in the LORD here in Virginia and I pray it has been the same with you as you continue in the LORD. Let me also mention that Amazon is having another one of those crazy sales on the book I recently completed and selling them cheaper than I can even sell them myself! If you have not read
The Ten Minute Tribulation/The Final 7 Years, this may be your chance. As I prepared this letter, I checked the price and it is currently at $5.29, so get it why you can. I have seen it go up quickly when orders start to come in, so, forgive me if it changes by the time you get there.
 
It's funny that as many churches I have passed through, and heard many of them teach that there are no apostles today, it seems that almost every visitor here in Virginia lately has had the title of apostle. Although titles are just titles, we know the Word of God says,

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and for ever (Hebrews 13:8).

Many are also aware that the Old Testament was a shadow of the New Testament that would soon come.

For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of those things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect (Hebrews 10:1).

What a beautiful story the Old Testament tells if we take the time to truly understand it. There are a lot of churches out there today that really don't want much to do with the Old Testament but that's like trying to live in a two story house with no first story!

If you have never studied the
"Tabernacle of Moses" you have really cut yourself short, if, you really want to understand the "Kingdom of Heaven". As you study the Tabernacle of Moses you will see that it was actually a shadow of God's Heavenly Kingdom shinning down upon the earth!
 
If you clicked the previous link and had a chance to check out the diagram of The Tabernacle of Moses, it might not have made much sense at first glance, BUT, it actually holds a 7000 year plan for mankind! Now, there surely is not enough space in this letter for me to give you all of the details as to how these teachings fall into place for each section but the information is readily available for you to dig deeper if you really want to understand why these things are true. If you don't feel like digging, as always, you are welcome to email me with any questions you may have and I will do my best to answer it for you.
 
Starting with the FOUR post that held the curtain to the gate as you enter it, it is a reminder of the 4000 years from the Fall of Adam and Eve to the FIRST coming of the LORD Himself! The FIRST coming of the LORD is symbolized by the FIVE post at the next door that holds a curtain which was known as the "Holy Place". Interesting enough, these FIVE post also represent God's government that would be established at His First Coming!
 
Ephesians 4:11-12 And He gave some. 1)Apostles; and some,2) Prophets; and some, 3)Evangelists, and some, 4)Pastors and 5)Teachers: For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

This area beyond the FIVE posts, The Holy Place, also represents a 2000 year period of grace after the LORD's FIRST coming and then brings us to the last section of the tabernacle which is known as the "Holy of Hollies". This small area, that ONLY the High Priest, was allowed to enter into in the Old Testament, also represents the 1000 year reign of the LORD Himself! God set up His government at His First Coming to instruct His Saints how to enter into this most Holy Place!

Hebrews 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.

THE ALTAR, that you see as you first entered in, represented the sacrifice that took place at Calvary almost 2000 years ago! and THE LAVER, that was just passed the altar represented water baptism which was commanded by the LORD in Matthew 28:19.

Although Jesus Himself had been baptized nearly 3 and 1/2 years earlier, He now gives a new commandment to baptize in this verse of Matthew. We can clearly see that even though Jesus gives this new commandment in Matthew, no one actually began to fulfill this commandment and baptize in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost until approximately 50 days later when the Holy Ghost was poured out on the Day of Pentecost. It was then, on The Day of Pentecost, that Peter and the other apostles baptized about 3000 souls in that Name!

Well, I've barely even scratched the surface of this natural shadow that God gave us but I pray you can begin to see how we are to spiritually walk in the light of this shadow. Honestly, the teachings on The Tabernacle of Moses could go on for a very long time but I try to keep these letters as short as possible, so, I will cut it here.

Have a blessed week,
And be SURE to tell someone on the job about JESUS

The Most Beautiful Woman!

10/2/2012

0 Comments

 
Welcome!
                  There are a lot of opinions today on what it means to be a popular woman in today's society, but what really makes a woman a beautiful woman?  As I watch them grow sometimes from an innocent child into a worldy competitor it can almost bring tears to your eyes. I have seen naturally beautiful women literally fall apart as they try to keep up with unnaturally beautiful women.

Everytime I see a natually beautiful girl fall apart it always reminds me of one in particular that never fell apart.  There is one that every time I think of her it amazes me of how hard she held on to her God and her inward beauty as ALL of the other women fell into competition! This woman went from a beautiful name to a lesser name without it affecting her inward spirit and the outward beauty that shined from it.

She was a beautiful Jewish woman living in a time when the Jews were looked down upon and in fact there was some that wanted to see them extinct at that very time! Her natural Jewish name was Hadassah but due to the way the Jews were looked down upon at that time she had to take what would be considered a pagan name in order to keep from being persecuted because of her Jewish name.  At this point Hadassah becomes Esther a poor and humble Jewish girl that would rise up one day to be a kings wife! 

If you are a woman and have not read the very short and very powerful book of Esther you have robbed yourself of a great blessing.  I really suggest you break down and read those short ten chapters and let the blessing fall within you!  If you are a man and have not read this book, I strongly suggest you break down and do so and receive your blessing, as you learn where, to give your wife or future wife the example of a godly woman.

This is the only book in the bible that NEVER mentions the word God or His Name.  In fact, there is NOT even a strong reference towards God, but, I personally have seen God in the most awesome way as I have read this book over and over. I believe anyone who reads it with an open heart will see Him in the same way.  At times we see Gods love and protection for those who belong to Him and at the same time we see Gods unblievable wrath fall upon those that oppose the people God loves!  In it we see the inward beauty of one of the most beautiful women of all times and we also see the most ugly and evil spirit of a man and his followers to oppose it!

As many women get caught up in the ways of this world and the deceitfulness of riches, I always think of Esther, and when it was her turn to receive anything she desired before she went in to see the king of her time. After the other women had had their turn and chosen the material things they wanted (Esther 2:13) we come to Esthers turn to choose what she would have to come before the king!

Esther 2:15
Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in before the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain the keeper of the women, appointed, And Esther obtained favor in the sight of all them that looked upon her.

Isn't it strange today that we think it takes tons of material things to obtain favor?  Just watch carefully around you how people act as they continue to believe that more things will make them happy.  It seems to me that the more people reach for on the outside, the uglier they become on the inside.  What a woman was Esther (Hadassah) for an example not only to women but also to men as to what to look for in a woman!  Don't get me wrong though men, because if you want a woman like Esther your gonna have to get right on the inside to get her! 

I'm sure none of us will get it perfect while we are on the green side of the grass, BUT, thank God we have some examples to lead us in the right direction as we head to the other side of the grass!

God bless you!

How's Your Timing Belt?

9/19/2012

0 Comments

 

Welcome,
                    As we shift seasons here in the USA, I praise the LORD for the beautiful summer we just had, and if your timing belt is good, you should have a pretty good fall and winter also!

If your wondering what this talk about a timing belt is, please hold on because I'm getting ready to get right into that. This letter may just bless you as much in the natural as it will in the spiritual! I remember hearing Vernon McGee preach a little sermon on evolution. In it he mentioned that people did not evolve from animals but however they do seem to be evolving into animals! Well, that sermon came back to mind as I recently went through a bit of a timing belt problem.
 
Just a few months ago I knew nothing about a timing belt but believe me, when yours goes, you are going to learn about them real quick! If you are not familiar with what a timing belt is, it is a belt in your car that you can not see but may be one of the most important maintenance repairs you can keep up with in your car!
 
What I learned is this, and if it seems out of the ball park for you to comprehend, I would try my best to get a little something out of this because it may prove to save you from car shopping a few years before you wanted to!
 
The timing belt in your car keeps the timing between the valves and the pistons just right so that they do not collide with each other and cause great damage to your engine. Fortunately for me when mine went recently, it was in a car that had what was known as a NON interference engine, which means, when the timing belt breaks the valves and the pistons will NOT collide even when the timing belt breaks! It was a 1995 car that I had and you would think that by 2012 we would surely have nothing to worry about in this area anymore. HOWEVER, as people continue to evolve, it seems that we have evolved from a safe NON interference engine up until 1996 or so and created an INTERFERENCE engine after 1996. This means that now if your timing belt breaks, more than likely, your engine will be destroyed and your car will be pretty much worthless. I guess that's a pretty good way to keep the customers coming back!
 
On the spiritual side of the matter, our hearts can be similar to the ever so important timing belt of a car! Although it can't be seen from the outside, if it is dry rotting and getting brittle it can eventually cause the whole body to have major problems!

Jeremiah 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?


Everything that proceeds from your mouth depends on the condition of your heart. Therefore if your heart has been properly maintenanced it should be operating sweet and without any sputtering.

Luke 6:45
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

 James, the half brother of Jesus, talked about the dangers of the tongue that can proceed from a heart that has not been maintenanced. How often can we bless and pray for someone on Sunday, while doing the Sunday thing, and then hit the China buffet afterwards and rip them apart!

James 3:8-11
But the tongue can no man tame, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father, and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similtude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?


As the church enters a time where most call the gift of speaking in tongues an evil thing, it could be that just for this bitter reason, James 3:8-11, that God chose to take control of the tongues of new believers. Even in the natural, the first thing a baby does when it is born is cries out and likewise the new birth experience will be the same for all those that believe. No wonder Paul told the church to NEVER forbid it!
 
1 Corinthians 14:39
Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and FORBID NOT to speak with tongues.

When the timing belt in my car went, there was no warning, but thank God it was before cars evolved into what they are today! Likewise, if the heart breaks, it can also go without warning and we can find ourselves unprepared standing before a Holy God and asking Him to hold the pickles, hold the lettuce, only to find out, He never was a big fan of Burger King!

Although in the natural we have progressed from a no worry NON interference engine to what we have now, an interference engine, aren't you glad that in the spiritual we have gone from an interference body to a NON interference body thanks to our LORD Jesus Christ!

If your not sure after how many miles you should have your timing belt checked, you need to get with the manufacturer that designed it. In the natural, that would be the dealership that made your vehicle and in the spiritual that would be the God that designed you! Read the spiritual manual today! The Bible! Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth!

Isaiah 5:20   
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!


Have a blessed week! 
and be SURE to tell someone on the job about JESUS!

Remembering 9/11-Not just WHAT happened BUT also WHY it happened!

9/11/2012

0 Comments

 
I pray all is well with you!
                                             I can still remember the very day it happened! 9/11 of 2001.  I was a new Christian at the time but had really been opened to the TRUTH of the Word of God. I was taking in everything that God wanted to show me without trying to put Him into a box.  Did He ever show me some things on that day!  

I realized how prideful I had been in my life but also was aware that most of my American friends had the same kind of attitude.  As I continued to read the bible it was clear to me what had happened to American on 9/11 of 2001.  

Psalm 127:1
Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it; except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

As God was opening my eyes to many  truths, I could still picture the young people of this country burning their Beatle's albums when John Lennon made the statement that the Beatle's are "more popular than Jesus now." 

I thought about the scenes on TV I could remember of that moment as I visited far more satanic concerts in the years to come and listened to a friend at the time describe his experience at a Marilyn Manson concert.  Although he seemed to enjoy what was clearly blasphemy against God, I knew my life had slipped greatly from what it once was!  I asked myself "Where am I (spiritually) and how in the world did I ever get here?" 

Now I realize, not only had it happened to me, BUT, the same thing has happened to the good ol U.S. of A.!  We've kicked God out of schools and brought the metal detectors in!

This entire message I am writting here came to me on 9/11 of 2012 as I saw the nation pause for a moment of prayer to remember what happened 11 years ago.  As I also paused to pray, the words came from my mouth, "Lord help me to remember what happened 11 years ago", at that moment the spirit showed me to NOT only remember WHAT happened but also to NEVER forget WHY it happened!

I am fully convinced that WITH God's protection the plan to high jack the planes on that day would have been uncovered by some slip up as so many attacks against this country are.  It would have been UNcovered, NOT, because we are all that, BUT, because OUR GOD IS ALL THAT!

Leviticus 26:15-18
And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor My judgements, so that ye will not do all My commandments, but that ye break My Covenant: I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. And I will set My face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you. And if ye will NOT yet for all this hearken unto Me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.

Some will read that and say "Who wants a God that can treat His people that way?"   First you have to know the goodness of God to understand such a statement.  God loves His creation very much but He also sees the damage that sin does to the people He loves so much.  He knows what is best for the people He made and He knows that there is NO alternative to stay safe, happy and close together except to avoid sin and follow what He has so carefully laid out for us to remain close to Him.

Look at today's youth without God.  I can assure you this, they would not even give a hoot about John Lennons statement today.  If you wonder about a statement such as the one I just made, then consider the fact that Marilyn Manson rips up bibles on stage and you don't hear anything about that!  America has fallen into a deep sleep and even the majority of high up leaders have lost the way of righteousness.  I still can't get over the Bill Clinton and Kid Rock photo I saw of the two together.  That is one of the best pictures I have seen recently of what America has become.

There was a time when American leaders stood up for what they believed whether you liked it or not, but, it was done in a way that lined up with God.  Now, most seem to just try and please the people and do what is popular to keep the check coming in.  

I used to be a Kid Rock fan and I am very familiar with the lyrics.  There is no way we can be a Christian nation and support such lyrics at the same time.  I have nothing against Kid Rock and I am sure God will give Him the same chance He has given me.  There is power in music whether it be for good or for bad.  

Be sure to read the lyrics to what your child is listening to and see what drugs he is singing about!   or what murder, or what kind of destruction!  If your thinking, kids will be kids, your right!  That's why you need to know these things and protect your kids!  Be sure to remind them that they are just that, THE KIDS, and you are the ADULT! but please don't forget to keep the LOVE in the center of it

It's a whole lot easier to keep these things from getting in the house than to get them out once they find their way in, but none the less, it's a job we need to stay on top of and ask God for the wisdom to deal with it if it has already entered the lives of our children.

Paul wrote his first letter to the Tessalonians because they were falling into the pagan ways of the people around them.  Keep your house seperated from unrighteousness and keep Jesus in the center of it!

God bless you!
