American's Loves Pornography because we ignorantly encourage our children to take part



I wrote a piece about 4-5 years ago about the toxic preponderance of the expanding pornography industry here in America and the ease with which anyone can gain access to such terrible material.  When I wrote that piece I had only in mind adult men sitting in their parents basements and pursuing a sick desire to gaze upon physical sin.  This lone adult male behavior alone was abhorrent enough but I recently decided to investigate again the growth of this despicable industry, although I found the experience of this new investigation revolting it also had some very negative affects on me both physically and mentally.  I found myself actually in physical pain when I found that an explosive growth in true child pornography had occurred in recent years and that a majority of this pornography was provided by the children themselves.  My tears fell with the realization that today's adolescents do not even understand the perversity of their willingness to upload naked selfie pictures into the world wide web (spider's web).  The idea that these children apparently have no concept of right or wrong in regards to what is pornographic and what is not is mind boggling to me. This apathy is something that is taught by the constant onslaught of hearing there is no sin, there is no right and wrong, there are no absolutes, there is but one law and that is now Aleister Crowley's satanic mantra of "Do what thou wilt is the whole of the law". 

Words cannot express how sad it is for me to see that our country's youth now consider this dark satanically evolved and virulent mind bending derivative as a basis for a new and acceptable progressive modern morality without understanding the consequences and corollary effects this brings into a lawful society.  The acceptance of pornography in our American society has produced an evil and very dark industry that prays on the souls of all those who find themselves within the grasp of such a foul commerce. I have found it utterly amazing that I find very little written on this subject much less anything solid moving forward through our courts to put a stop to it all.  Pornography falls under "free speech" here in the United States and is therefore deemed sacrosanct and seen by the courts as a man-made "divine" and "hallowed" tenant of the 1st Amendment. That is why it will never be stopped promptly and it will be allowed to spread and prosper by which time the damage to society will have been discovered and promoted by politicians as a new revelatory science that has discovered and is finally seeing the deleterious effects of allowing our children to participate in this wicked promotion of plain evil masquerading as "Free Speech". 

I suppose the biggest shock I received from my little investigation was the information I received from prepubescent adolescents when I asked what they thought of all the pornography their are surrounded with daily, they looked at me quizzically and the then the light went off, and they said it was everywhere every day. Now I didn't quite understand what they had related until one of the kids held up a phone and said it's all in here all the time. A phone is a phone to me and the few times I used it to access the internet's world wide web I found it much harder than just using my computer at home so I stopped using my phone in this fashion, the kids did not stop using their phones in this fashion. The light came on!  The children have become desensitized to what is truly evil and what is truly good.  They do not recognize the dark and evil path their parents have allowed them to travel and that is because their parents no longer recognize what is evil and what is good.  If one can no longer distinguish between what is evil and what is good as a secular citizen than surely one has no capability of pointing out   a potential trap to help one child bypass the pitfalls that surround us.  It is no wonder that I continue to hear that nothing makes sense any longer and what does it all mean?  Really? I have to explain how this works?  I live in a country that is lost in translation and apparently no longer able to hold the capacity for reasoned thought and conclusive objective understanding.  Dennis Prager put it best, "Those who do not see or understand evil fight those who do."  The world and the United States continues the fight to remove God from our world and our American lives.  Yes, the road map to a completely secular world without God is a road map Americans seem to be happily using daily as we travel this road and we are trusting in some faceless someone to lead us to the glorious Utopia of progressive leftist dreams a dream where "Do what thou wilt is the whole of the law".
  
I just want to expand upon one other point here and that is of sin, a terrible sin the entire country will be held liable for before a heavenly court.  What is that sin? The sin of stealing or theft.  Yes, the 8th Commandment.  What and how is this Commandment primary to my assessment? I believe the eighth commandment is the only commandment that is truly open ended and covers all the commandments when one understands the true nature of theft or stealing.  Most believe that this commandment is about the theft of physical property but it is not it is about everything that can be stolen, confiscated, destroyed, misused etc.. 
What can be stolen?  Let me make a small list to get you on the right train of thought here;

Murder is stealing ones life

Adultery is stealing a person's spouse

Coveting is the desire to steal what rightfully belongs to another

Giving false testimony is stealing justice

Stealing a person's reputation through false testimony, libel, slander or gossip is a horrible sin because rarely is it fully restored

Stealing a person's precious dignity by humiliation is abhorrent

Stealing a person's trust through deception, so it is just telling a simple lie

Stealing a person's intellectual property, like downloading music without purchase or stealing another's words such plagiarism. This particular theft is currently rampant and seen as OK.

Stealing a child's youth and innocence is probably the absolute worst case of theft and one that actually physically hurts my heart and I mean it truly physically hurts.

Why don't I hear Christians shouting everyday about this extremely abhorrent practice? Why do most Americans claim to be good people when this is evil is fully supported by the government and courts we put in place above us to guide us and protect us. To condone what God has condemned, even through ignorance, is no excuse even before a secular court much less before the throne of God. To keep silent is to condone and therefore a sin of horrific theft on every American citizen be they aware or not. 

God has said through His Prophet Hosea 4:6-7:

6 "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children." 
7 "The more they multiplied, the more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame.…"

What knowledge is lacking? It is the simple and basic understanding of the Ten Commandments and what does it mean to steal.  Elemental comprehension and awareness of God's simple truth of theft and what it truly means is something you would think anyone who has any knowledge of the Ten Commandments would understand.  How sad that we have come so far in our journey away from God and His moral code and it has resulted in this blindness to the destruction of our own children. 

Wake Up! Wake Up! Wake Up! Seek the Light, Find the Light and Strive to remain in the Light! Only through knowledge of God's Word is this attainable.

Free speech is the pillar that supports and defends this attack on our children. If Free Speech is the tool used in America to continue the destruction of innocent children then Free Speech needs to be overhauled! Destructive behavior is supported by destructive policy.

If you saw someone beating a child on the side of the road wouldn't you try to put a stop to it immediately or would you just think someone else will come along and put a stop to it or even worse you decide to defer to the law and the courts and say it is that evil man's right, by way of free speech, to hurt that child and continue to hurt that child unto death so you drive on by. If that child dies because of the beating they received who would be held responsible? The one doing the beating of coarse but those who facilitated and supported the evil behavior on the basis of free speech are also primary in their guilt.
As a country we are guilty, as individual voters we are responsible because we voted for and supported candidates that have fully supported this evil for years and even with the dark consequences laid out before them they refuse to see evil for what it truly is.  

Those who see evil and fight evil are opposed by fools who do not see evil and will fight to protect those who do evil. Is this completely upside down or what? 

Evil just doesn't recognize itself in the mirror but God does.

This Will Make Americans Think, I Hope!

When you vote for an incumbent you are perpetuating our government as it is now.    Nothing will change. 
3 short sentences, you may find interesting.
 
  These three, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our current government and cultural environment:
 
   1.)   We are advised NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.
 
  ....  Funny how that works. And here's another one worth considering.
 
   2.)   Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money.
 
       How come we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of money?  
        What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but the second didn't.
 
       Think about it..... Last but not least:
 
   3.)   Why are we cutting benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our military and cutting our army to a level lower than before WWII, but we are not stopping payments to illegal aliens such as monthly payments for each child, money for housing, Food Stamps, free education including college and also the right to vote?
 
  Am I the only one missing something?

September 2015-2016

How many Christians know what September 2015 will bring or for that matter September 2016. If you seek the Lord then you will get off your butts and seek the Truth that GOD has given you within the Scriptures. You need not be in shock if you are knowledgeable of GOD's WORD. Knowledge is increasing by leaps and bounds, be apart of this outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the end days.

I'll write more on this issue, its my job as a believer.

The Prophetic Picture of Feasts and Holy Days


THE MEANING OF PASSOVER
 Salvation comes by the atoning blood of Israel's promised Sacrifice Lamb
“God will provide Himself, a Lamb". (Gen.22:8)
On the 14th day of Nisan
The sacrifice lamb is slain. The blood of atonement upon the door brings salvation as the death angel passes overhead. It is the eve of the Passover. The epic Exodus that follows sees God's covenant people delivered from the bondage of Egypt.
This was the Old Covenant fulfillment of Passover for national salvation.
On the 14th day of Nisan
In 33 A.D., on the eve of Passover, Yeshua is crucified. The blood of the promised Sacrifice Lamb is shed. This is the redemption God has provided. It brings salvation to His covenant people, delivering them from the bondage of sin and death.
This is the New Covenant fulfillment of Passover for personal salvation.
THE MEANING OF THE FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD 
The unleavened "Bread of Heaven" is the sinless and accepted sacrifice.
Leaven, a type of sin, was removed from the dwellings. Then at twilight, as the 14th day of Nisan was ending, the Passover lambs were slain. Sunset initiated the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Nisan 15 was a "high day", a non-Saturday Sabbath. Bread baked without yeast was eaten during the seven days of the feast.
Sunset began the 15th day of Nisan. Jesus was buried, just in time for the Feast of Unleavened Bread. But in the grave His body did not decay or see corruption. That Passover the sinless unleavened 'Bread of Heaven' was revealed as that long awaited perfect sacrifice for sin. Thus He fulfilled the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
THE MEANING OF THE FEAST OF FIRSTFRUITS 
 After a cold barren winter new life breaks forth. On the 17th day of the Nisan moon the first fruits of the barley harvest was gathered and waved before the Lord in celebration.
On the 17th day of Nisan in 33 A.D. Jesus rises up from the grave. He is the first fruits from the dead. On that very day He fulfilled the feast. 

THE MEANING OF THE FEAST OF PENTECOST 
 50 days counted out from First fruits is Shavuot or Pentecost. God comes down to His covenant people in an earthshaking day of visitation. It is a betrothal leading into magnificent future glories.
Old Testament Fulfillment
50 days from the day the First fruits of the barley harvest was waved before the Lord, (50 days from the morrow after the Sabbath after Passover), is Shavuot or the Day of Pentecost. Rabbinic scholars believe that it was on this day that God visited His people after their exodus from Egypt and through Moses, brought the Law down from Mount Sinai. This earthshaking day of visitation, trembling, and betrothal is the birthday of the nation of Israel. Moses brings down the Torah or Law for the nation. Because of sin 3,000 die under the Law that day. The Old Covenant is a national covenant between YHVH-God and His covenant people. And so the nation of Israel was established. They agree to follow Him in devotion and obedience. In spite of past failures the nation of Israel will indeed be restored. The Jewish House of Judah will be saved and the throne of David in Judah will be established upon this earth under Messiah. But that is not all. The lost sheep of the House of Israel, the lost ten tribes of Israel, will be found and brought back home to Israel again. (See Ezek.37). The nation and Kingdom of Israel along with Messiah's  Melchizedek Priesthood will be fully restored as a single Elect and Chosen people. The Old Covenant and the Law has not been "done away with" as we have been told. Both estranged houses of Israel will embrace Messiah. Then with their partial blindness healed they will rediscover each other at the end of this age to restore the Union in both Righteousness, (the royal national burden of the Jews), and in Grace, (the holy priestly burden of the Church). Both Houses of Israel are being sifted through the nations. Those being saved are bringing many companions home to Israel with them. (See  Ezekiel 37:15-28) The nation will be reunited and regathered as that Commonwealth of Israel spoken of by our Apostle Paul. (See Eph. 2:12-13). Restored Israel is destined to be cross-linked together as that "royal priesthood and holy nation spoken of by both Moses and by the Apostle Peter. (See  Exod. 19:6, and  1Pet.2:9). The Old Covenant God made with the nation of Israel and the righteous rule of Israel’s Messiah upon this earth is in the heart of the Jewish House of Judah. YHVH-God's righteous rule will surely come and the nation of Israel will be restored, but only under Messiah and not by might or by power. The restoration will not come by a seducing religious humanism or by the military might of a crusading Church Dominionism). It will come by God's Holy Spirit. (See Zechariah 4). The New Covenant is established soul by soul and silently in the gentle bonds of love and devotion as Messiah is received into human lives. It is by YHVH's Grace through faith that His Law is written into the hearts. The prophet Jeremiah spoke of this mystery. See Jer. 31:31. See also Hebrews 8:8-12. The prophet Zechariah saw the Jewish House of Judah in Israel repenting and receiving Messiah rather late, even as Jerusalem was surrounded by armies at the close of this age. See Zechariah 12:7-13:1.
New Testament Fulfillment
50 days from the day the First fruits of the barley harvest was waved before the Lord, (that is 50 days from the morrow after the weekly (Saturday) Sabbath after Passover), in the summer of the year of Yeshua's passion, YHVH-God visits His people by His Holy Spirit. This is another earthshaking day of visitation and betrothal. But on this occasion God's Presence is not as unapproachable as on the former visitation back at Sinai. Moses had ordered 12 boundary markers placed around the foot of the mountain to hold back the people lest the fire of God flash out upon them. Amidst the thundering and lightning God came down as a consuming fire and blackened the entire summit. Only Moses could stand in God's Presence. Mount Sinai has recently been discovered east of the Gulf of Aquaba in the former land of Midian, (now Saudi Arabia).  The real Mount Sinai with many accompanying archaeological proofs of its authenticity is Jabal el Lawz, now hidden from the world behind security fences and armed guards of the Saudi military forces. Back at Sinai it was a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. But this next Pentecostal visitation was quite different. Tongues of fire descended from heaven to rest upon consecrated individuals gathered to wait upon God. All of them had received Messiah and had come to know Him in a personal way in the New Covenant. And just as Moses had seen the burning bush that was not consumed by the fire now came down and rested upon the 120 in the upper room, not to consume them but to fill them with the Holy Spirit and bathe them in the glory of God. This day of wonder sees the Holy Spirit descend in a splendid flooding wave. This was the beginning of the Holy Spirit outpouring. And Joel saw this coming to a peak at the 6th seal at the very end of the latter days. See Joel 2:28-32. The revival spreads out from the Jerusalem epicenter as the disciples go out into the streets of the city proclaiming the Good News of salvation. Whereas 3,000 had died under the Law on the previous visitation 3,000 are now saved by Grace as the Apostle Peter preaches to the crowds coming up to the Feast. And so on this awesome day in holy history, the 7th day of Sivan on the Hebrew calendar, the Feast of Pentecost comes to its appointed New Covenant fulfillment. The Feast of Pentecost, the fourth of the Seven Feasts of Israel is taken up to the next level. It becomes the birthday of the Church. The Holy Spirit revival spreads out from Jerusalem into Judea, Samaria, and thence onward to the utmost parts of the world. This was that promised Light to the Gentiles Isaiah spoke about (See  Isaiah 49:6). The ensuing 2,000 years sees Israel's Messiah continuing to 'call out' His 'ekklesia', His Congregation, by His Holy Spirit. The Good News of the Gospel overflows Israel and spreads out into the gentile nations and YHVH-God's Covenant people expand out of Israel to become a global Congregation (or "Church"), even as Israel's Jordan river overflows its banks all the days of the harvest.
THE MEANING OF THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS   (The very next feast due to be fulfilled)
The annual religious celebration, the shofar (rams horn) is blown at the western wall on the new moon of Tishrei to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets.
In the autumn of the year and on the first day of the Tishrei moon trumpets are blown to announce the Hebrew holiday of Rosh Hashanah. Biblical Christians refer to it as the Feast of Trumpets. It is the 5th of the Seven Feasts of Israel. The ultimate New Covenant fulfillment of this future Jewish New Year, (Tishrei 1 on the Hebrew calendar), will be spectacular beyond words. The feast will explode into holy history. And it will be a blockbuster. Moses declared and prophesied that it would become a "memorial of blowing of trumpets" (Lev. 23:24,25) It seems that many faithful saints will suffer at the hands of the powers when they blow the trumpet of alarm on Yom Teruah, that awesome future Rosh Hashanah.  (Ezek.33) That epic coming feast day will see the faithful watchmen of Israel faithful to the call. And "they will not be silent". This 5th feast was instituted by Moses at Sinai approximately 3,500 years ago. It marks the first day of the Hebrew (civil) new year. 'Rosh Hashanah' means 'head of the year'. The Feast of Trumpets is the first of the three, yet to be fulfilled, Fall Feasts of Israel. These Autumn Feasts relate to Kingdom/political issues rather than the High Priestly/religious matters that we saw Messiah address in the spring feasts during His first coming 2,000 years ago. Back then we saw Him ride into Jerusalem on a donkey as the 'Suffering Servant'. But when Messiah returns this next time He will come as the Conquering King.  After Trumpets on Tishrei 1 comes the "Ten days of awe" which lead on to Yom Kippur on Tishrei 10 which is the  Day of Atonement. This is the most solemn day of the year. On this awesome Day of Reckoning all accounts between YHVH-God and all His covenant people are settled. The Jubilee Year is also announced on this same tenth day of Tishri. Trumpets are also blown during special times of national crisis. God's covenant people are summoned to gather themselves together in a solemn assembly before the God of Israel. Trumpets are sounded during battle in times of warfare. Trumpets also announce the approach and soon arrival of a king.
On a future Rosh Hoshanah, on the new moon of Tishrei, the shofars will begin to sound on a day like no other. The ultimate epic future Feast of Trumpets will burst onto the world stage and into holy history. This will be an awesome day of mixed celebration and alarm. YHVH-God's determined times for Daniel's Prophecy of the 70 Weeks will resume in earnest. All of God's covenant people from  both houses of Israel will be "called out", summoned to solemn assembly at YHVH-God's new and revamped 'ekklesia', His new 'congregation', 'synagogue', or 'church' of the  70th Week". The saints will be crying out to God and this will spark the climactic End-Time Revival that Joel saw, (Joel 2:28,29,30,31,32).We now have very  strong evidence that this future Rosh Hashanah will mark the terminus of the "Roadmap to Peace". This will be the day when Israel signs the seven year peace covenant written about in Daniel 9:27. Israel will agree to divide and sell the Holy Land and their national sovereignty for a pocketful of promises of "peace and safety".  Moses spoke of this final dalliance of Israel and predicted the ensuing Great Tribulation. Jesus Christ, Yeshua Hamashiach, said that they would reject Him who came in His Father's Name and said that His covenant people would consort with a  false messiah, a man who came "in his own name" (John 5:43).  Seven momentous years will then bring in the end-time witness. Then comes the final awesome Day of Atonement. Trumpets of Jubilee will herald the opening of the Day of the Lord which opens on the very next day. Angels of wrath will pluck up the wicked as tares for the fires. (Mat.13:30) At some unknown time in those ensuing days before the Feast of Tabernacles comes into its fulfillment the last trumpet will sound and all of God's Elect, (singular), will be gathered. The climactic future Resurrection will see Messiah gather His Chosen from the nation of Israel and from among the heathen gentiles. All the saints, the quick and the dead, from every nation, race, and tribe, from both sides of Calvary will be there. And they will all enter the glory together. (Isa. 49:6 and 1Thes. 4:15, 16, 17).
In Conclusion
The Feasts and Holy Days of Israel and the Jewish people are a direct and clear picture of the Salvation God has promised the believers in the atoning Blood of His Sacrificial Lamb. If this is a direct and clear picture of the promise then the words the His Prophets have given us are also meant has clear and direct information to us for growth and knowledge. To understand the Scriptures you simply must read them with a perspective that they are truly relevant and great impact on your understanding. The signs in the heavens all make sense if you remove yourself from man’s understanding and accept that man’s understanding is very limited and leaves in a state of confusion and leads most people to give up trying, you just cannot mix oil and water and see clearly. There are only two points of view, God’s view and man’s view, I trust God to tell me the Truth.

If you know the Bible this will help you understand End Times Prophecy


I know I mentioned Jewish Feasts and Holy Days so here is a little synopsis of what they currently are and is based on the foods.

 I will do another Feast Day overview so you can see where these days fit into the prophetic picture of Old Testament and New Testament but I must get my 1959 F100 back on the road first.

Shabbat

Shabbat is considered the most important of all Jewish holidays. It is the day of rest and weekly observance of God's completion of creation. Starting on Friday night an hour before sunset, it lasts for 25 hours until sunset on Saturday night.

Rosh Hashanah

During the fall when the days begin to shorten and the leaves begin to change, Jewish tradition encourages us to look inward as we prepare for the New Year ahead. The Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah) is a holiday marked by festive meals with foods symbolizing our hopes for the new year—such as apples dipped in honey for a sweet new year and pomegranates for a year of plenty—and a day spent in prayer or quiet meditation.

Yom Kippur

The most solemn day of the Jewish year, Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement offers an entire day devoted to self–examination. Many spend the day in synagogue devoted to prayer and study while abstaining from food and drink. The goal is to begin the New Year with a clean slate.

Sukkot

This seven–day festival celebrates the fall harvest and also commemorates the time when the Hebrews dwelt in the Sinai wilderness on their way to the Promised Land of Israel. The holiday is celebrated by building (and then dwelling in) ceremonial huts called Sukkot, waving of four different plant species (palm, myrtle, willow and citron), and many food-filled festive gatherings in the Sukkah.

Shemini Atzeret

This holiday literally means the “8th day of assembly.” It is a festive day after the week-long festival of Sukkot, and is marked by the annual prayer for rain recited in synagogue. In Israel and in liberal (Reform, Reconstructionist, Renewal) communities outside of Israel it is combined with the holiday of Simchat Torah.

Simchat Torah

Simchat Torah marks the end and the beginning of the annual Torah reading cycle. Every week all over the world, the same Torah portion is read in Jewish communities. On Simchat Torah the cycle ends and begins again. This is accompanied by parading the Torah scrolls about and with singing and dancing.

Hanukkah

This beloved 8–day Jewish winter festival celebrates the miracle of a small cruse of oil when it burned for 8 days, instead of only one. It also celebrates the military victory of the Jewish Maccabees over the powerful Syrian Greek army in 167 BCE. The victory was followed by a rededication (Hanukkah) of the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. It is from this act that the holiday gets its name.

Tu B’Shevat

This is the Jewish New Year of the Trees. Observances include planting of trees, purchasing trees to be planted in Israel, and a mystical Tu B'Shevat ritual meal that includes different colored wine (from white to red) and different kinds of fruits and nuts.

Hamentashen Purim

The name of this holiday means “lots”, so named for the lots that were drawn to determine a dark day in Jewish history. As luck would have it, those dark days never arrived, as the evil villian's plans were thwarted by the clever Jewish Queen Esther, whose story is recounted in the Biblical Scroll of Esther. Celebrations include a public reading of the scroll, giving gifts to friends and to the needy, dressing up in costume, eating a special triangle-shaped pastry, the hamantaschen, and the drinking of alcohol for those of drinking age.

Matzah Passover

This seven or eight day festival of freedom marks the Hebrew exodus from Egypt long ago. The story is told during a festive ritual meal called a “Seder.” During the festival, it is traditional to abstain from all foods containing leaven; that is, foods made from grain that have not been prepared according to a strict Passover cooking procedure. Among the grain foods that are permitted is matzah, an unleavened bread that is baked before it has a chance to rise.

Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Memorial Day)

Jews all over the world mourn the loss of six million Jewish lives lost during the Holocaust as part of Hitler's genocidal “Final Solution.”

Yom HaZikaron (Israeli Memorial Day)

On this Memorial Day, we commemorate the soldiers who have fallen fighting for Israel’s independence and defending its security. This holiday falls the day before Israel's Independence Day.

Yom HaAtzmaut (Israeli Independence Day)

This holiday celebrates the independence of the Modern State of Israel. In Israel the day of Yom HaAtzmaut is marked with fireworks, barbeques, and outdoor revelry. For Jewish communities outside of Israel it is a time to gather and celebrate our pride and connection to the Jewish homeland.

Lag B’Omer

This holiday marks the 33rd day of the 49-day “Omer” period between Passover and Shavuot. This 7 week period called “the Omer” is traditionally a quiet time on the Jewish calendar, but Lag B’Omer, which occurs on the 33rd day is an exception. Bonfires, outdoor parties and revelry rule the day, which is also a popular Jewish wedding date.

Shavuot

Shavuot is the holiday celebration of the giving of the Torah to the Jewish people. The celebration of Shavuot is also the Festival of First Fruits and Grains, a fulfillment of the promise of spring. The name means “weeks”, so named for the 7-week period from Passover to Shavuot.

Tisha B’Av

An important fast day in the Jewish calendar is Tisha B’Av, the 9th day of the Hebrew month of Av. The day commemorates the destruction of the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem in 586 BCE and 70 CE.
Tu B’Av

Held six days after the fast day of Tisha B’Av comes a festival of love! A popular wedding date, the day is celebrated in the best way possible with wine, chocolate and roses!

Seven Year Cycle in Prophecy of American Finances


Cycle of Seven Years
American Christians are very ignorant (and I don’t mean that in a bad sense but rather a lack of understanding through knowledge sense) about how the Jewish calendar is the calendar God uses. If you don’t understand the basics of the Feast Days throughout the Jewish Civil calendar then you’ll never truly understand the prophecies and the signs God uses to inform us of impending happenings that will affect us all. If you want to understand French you need to learn French, simple as that. I am writing this article because it is being played out before your very eyes every night on the TV news programs (albeit very one dimensional reporting). There will be an economic collapse of the American dollar and that will greatly affect all world economies and leave America pretty much destitute and the rest of the world will be very angry with us letting this worldwide economic collapse happen. Below is a general synopsis of the soon to occur events here in the United States and it is all Biblical and all prophesied through the Bible. When American politicians began to defy God in speeches to the nation and the world God took notice and began the warnings immediately, the tipping point had been reached.  
 Deuteronomy 15:1 “At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.”
Deuteronomy  15:2 “And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD'S release.”
The year of the Lord’s release from debt is called the Shimitah year. This always takes place on the 29 Elul (around the end of September by our Roman calendar) and is the last day of the civil Jewish calendar which is one day before the Feast of Trumpets which is heralding a time of renewal and new beginnings.
September 17, 2001 (29 Elul on Jewish Civil Calendar) 684 point loss or 7.13% after one week of closure
Now move forward exactly seven years to
September 29, 2008 (29 Elul on Jewish Civil Calendar) it lost 777 points or 7.0%
The people and the nation are only given so much time to make amends before real financial pain is felt.
Move forward seven years to the next Shimitah year of September 13, 2015 (29 Elul on Jewish Civil Calendar) and here we find a partial solar eclipse (which in this case) is a sign for Gentile Nations that a financial eclipse is coming for the world economy.
September 14, 2015 (1st of the month Tishri) and is the Feast of Trumpets heralding a time of renewal and new beginnings which is also during the 8th Tetrad Blood Moon sign in the Heavens
September 28, 2015 (15th of the month Tishri) the last Blood Moon of the 8th Tetrad falls on Sukkot which is the second Feast of Tabernacles (the eighth is always a sign of new beginnings).
Once the financial systems have weakened and are in the throes of collapse then the stage is set and the understanding of Revelation begins to be seen and unveiled to more and more Christians who are trying to seek the truth and the picture becomes clearer.
Rev 6:12
And 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;
            NOTE; The earthquake will be a huge sign because we already know when the sun and moon will have their eclipses 2014 and again in 2015
 Rev 6:13
And 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.
                NOTE; If you haven’t noticed and you probably haven’t noticed that here are multiple asteroids, comets and meteorites suddenly being discovered and their orbits are much closer to earth than ever suspected. Stars falling onto the earth could be meteorites which come from Comet tail debris fields and some asteroids break up when they get too close to the earth of sun are seen as fireballs in the sky
 Rev 6:14
And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
                NOTE; This is rather spooky in that it reveals a picture of great crustal movement as part of an earthquake scenario or combined with a great tectonic plate movement or shift, this would be bad and I pray it is site specific and not worldwide.
 Rev 6:15
And 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;
                NOTE; Why are all the underground safety zones built by the U.S. government intended only for government officials, look it up.
 Rev 6:16
And 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:
 Rev 6:17
For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
January 2010 7.0 Earthquake hits Haiti 316,000 die
September 2010 7.0 Earthquake hits Christchurch New Zealand
February 2011 6.3 Earthquake hits Christchurch 185 die
March 2011 9.0 Earthquake hits Japan and causes Tsunami 20,896 die
August 2011 5.8 Earthquake hits Washington D.C. cracks Washington Monument
These earthquakes are warnings and are precedent of the big earthquake of Revelation 6:12 prophecy
During these days of financial upheaval, earthquakes (large ones), fireballs hitting the earth or Coronal Mass Ejections (electrically charged blasts from the sun) it becomes a complete distraction and overwhelms the nations who simply go into survival mode and will accept just about anyone or anything they think can help them survive. People who have read the prophecy of Revelation and recognized the signs God has given us can be assured that the Word of God is true and He is to be believed it also gives those on the fence ample time to come to grips with their faith and accept the promise of salvation through the Blood of Christ.
I believe there is little time left on the clock and that is why I am trying to get the basics out there for those who remain searching for truth.  This is no time delve, as I have for 45 years, into scripture to disseminate the truth of God’s Word versus what is taught and supposedly known in the world according to men. When these signs come to pass many will say it is a coincidence (I get that phrase an awful lot, a catch-all for don’t understand or don’t want to understand and I am happy being ignorant, OK go be ignorant) but others will see the correlations of Bible prophecy and the things happening in the world all around them.
If you want to grow shortened it up and concentrate on Matthew, John and Revelation and you will have as complete a picture of Jesus and His teachings and prophecies as anyone alive because it is the foundation of our faith in Him.
To understand the world around you and get a clear vision of what the world is really doing and where it is truly headed one must be able to see the big picture and see that all things are indeed connected and this can only be done once you realize it is not a variety of small interesting stories, conspiracy theories, and a million other things that do not look like they are connected but they all keep you distracted from the truth in front of you. 
It really is simple to comprehend and see the distractions of the world for what they are but you can only do this if you see that a single strategy is in play and the individual tools used are widely varied and seemingly unconnected. Look at things from a battle ground perspective if you can and you will see, using the Bible as a guidebook, that it is one side bent on destruction of all things and the other side bent on saving each person from that destruction. Easily written but apparently so hard for many to understand but as Jesus said, some hear and some see because the truth is in them but most do not have the truth as a foundation and are blind and deaf, sobeit.

America in Bible Prophecy

Revelation 18:4 – And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.”

This is so important, I hope that you will look up the Scriptures, and pray about it, before you disregard!!!!!

I know the following is a little long but certainly not nearly as long as I could have made it but please bear with me here as I am simply trying to point out what the scriptures say about end times Babylon. Search all this out yourselves and to those who will see shall see a clearer picture of the times in which we live and the country we love and call home.  Remember that it is the people who are ruling who speak for the entire nation and not individual citizens but citizens are held accountable for those whom they put in charge over them. Does Washington D.C. hold to any biblical teachings today? No.
   
Is America, the most dominant and influential nation of the end times, really not found in Bible prophecy as most Christians believe? If that doesn’t sound right to you, then you are not alone. Revelation and Jeremiah talk about a dominant end time power named “Mystery Babylon the Great” which stands in the way of evil but at the same time is so wicked itself that God judges her before the rest of the world. Sadly, there is no better plain literal fulfillment of Babylon than America today. Except…how can God judge a nation who does so much good and not judge so many arguably worse nations like China or Iran? How can Babylon be a nation when it says it’s a “city?” A leading city is still today synonymous with the nation in which it is located i.e. Washington is the United States as Moscow is Russia or London is Great Britain.
Where is the blood of slain prophets “found in her?”

Matthew 23:34-35 (HCSB) “This is why I am sending you prophets, sages, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will flog in your synagogues and hound from town to town.  So all the righteous blood shed on the earth will be charged to you…” This will become more prevalent as Christians become more and more persecuted.

In the last days the Bible talks about a dominant city that is a major center of commerce that will be destroyed in one hour, Mystery Babylon the Great. The churches will tell you it is referring to the Vatican in Rome or an entire political, religious or economic system (it is all these things in one) yet to hold this view as the only answer one must ignore 98% of the Scriptures. Making this assumption based on one verse to use as evidence is folly. It can be easily discerned with a new and correct understanding of God’s Word. That is how warped the whole Vatican theory is that most churches and prophecy ‘gurus’ preach today when it comes to Revelation chapters 17 and 18. Why? Why do they want our focus on something else rather than what the Bible is really speaking of?

Consider this: The former prophets all warned of this coming Great Babylon. Let’s look at what each one said about it:

There is no other city or nation on earth that could fulfill these requirements other than the United States of America. There are some who hold to the view this passage is referring only to New York City. In fact, it refers to both NYC and the entire nation. The term “city” translated from the Greek means city or nation. In this instance, it refers to a nation led by its chief city, which is New York City. So in some instances it is talking about New York City and in others the nation itself. And if you’re not convinced, go back and read all these prophecies again about the last great nation on earth.
 
 The Bible Codes confirm that America is Babylon, and that the beasts coming will rule here, will be here, and will take over and destroy this country on their way to global rule from Jerusalem. Isn’t it amazing that there are over 100 prophecies that only one super power nation in the last days could fulfill and the churches tell you today that America isn’t mentioned in last day’s prophecies? This all broke my heart.


Ecclesiastes 8:5: “Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart discerneth both time and judgment.”

Babylon the Great is Alive


This particular subject matter has been a thorn in my side for 45 years because when I read “The Late Great Planet Earth” by Hal Lindsey in 1970 I was enthralled and yet very agitated at the same time because the Revelation to John just remained beyond my comprehension at the time and I just did not understand most of what was being said. I couldn’t understand how a book in the Bible called the revealing of knowledge was so obtuse and opaque. I did understand that this knowledge and understanding of the end times would be thoroughly understood by those who have ears to hear in the times spoken of in this prophetic book. That time is now, the signs are being revealed all around us on a daily basis but those who will never see or hear and understand the truth will simply fall to the wayside and follow the common path of destruction. This particular study will only be enlightening to those who truly seek the knowledge of God the rest of those who read this will, as they always do, simply turn aside because it doesn’t match up with what they learned through the teachings of man his false doctrines. Again, I have wrestled with this new understanding of end times prophecies for the last year because I simply did not want it to be true. When I read it and truly saw and understood the words that were spoken in the scriptures about these end times by all the prophets my understanding went through the roof and pieces of this puzzle that have plagued me for years began to fall into place and the real picture began to reveal itself. It is not a pleasant picture for America and America is the only nation on earth that fulfills all these prophecies. It is a very sad picture of self-destruction that clothed in modern reasoning where emotions rule the hearts of men and not the Word of God. This is no longer the nation we fool ourselves into believing is a nation guided by God for our leaders have cursed God publicly and didn’t even know they had done it.
