TIME IS GETTING VERY SHORT, Perhaps this is the year?

 We have a very short time before the Lord returns for His Bride. The year 2021-2022 is the beginning of the 7 year tribulation but on the Hebrew calendar (which we must use because it is still GOD's time clock) that first day of 5782 is our 7th of September.

Rosh HaShanah – ‘Head of the year’ / Tishrei 1 is the first day of the Jewish new year in their civil calendar. It is the anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve.

Yom Teruah – ‘Day of Awakening Blast’ / Jewish belief is that the resurrection of the dead will occur on the feast of Trumpets.

The Last Trumpet – On this day, there are 100 trumpet blasts. The final, long, and most significant trumpet blast is called ‘the last trump’.

Yom Zikaron – ‘Day of Remembrance’ / A day on which the chosen people remember God, and God remembers them.

Yom Hadin – ‘Day of Judgment’ / God opens the books on that day and judges the righteous and the wicked according to what they had done.

Yom Hamelech – the Day of the Coronation of the King.

The time of Jacob’s trouble – There shall be great tribulation in Israel such as never was since there was a nation.

Yom Hakeseh – The Hidden Day / It was ‘hidden’ because they didn’t know the exact day it would begin due to the fact that it is the only feast that starts on a new moon. Thus it was a two day feast because they didn’t want to celebrate it on the wrong day. Concerning Rosh HaShanah, the Jews would typically say “Of that day and hour no one knows.”

The Opening of the Gates of Heaven / The Gate of Heaven is opened on Rosh HaShanah so the righteous nation may enter.

The Wedding of Messiah / The blowing of the heavenly trumpet is a call for the entire, true, bride of God to assemble together.

The Crown is being made right now in Jerusalem!!!

A Golden Crown for the one who comes.

I don't know how many believers know that the Sanhedrin in Jerusalem have commissioned that a crown of gold is made for the soon arrival of a Messiah. Now it is important to know that the Jews believe that two Messiahs shall arrive soon, Messiah ben Joseph, the one to lead their armies against their enemies but he shall be killed during the battle but not to fear for another Messiah, the Messiah ben David who shall restore all things, beginning with the restoration to life of Messiah ben Joseph. The golden crown will be given to Messiah ben David and he shall be king over all the earth. 

Does this sound familiar? Revelation chapter 6 verse 2 says " And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was GIVEN unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer." Note that a crown was given unto him. I contend that the crown was not given to him from Heaven but rather was bestowed on him from the grateful Jews who do not fully understand that this man is there to wipe them out after convincing them that he is their Messiah with wonders and miracles. Revelation 13:3 says, " And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded unto death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast." When the Messiah ben David heals and restores back to life the Messiah ben Joseph perhaps this is the time he is given the crown of a ruler. 

The problem the Jews currently have is that they believe GOD is one and He has no son, they do not comprehend the triune nature of GOD. God is as Jesus (Yeshua) stated one but GOD and that He, Jesus, came to us from out of the Father. I explain to those who asked that GOD can do anything and becoming a fleshly man is certainly not beyond the power of GOD Almighty. Think of water, when frozen it is solid, when it is hot it becomes a vapor when it is not hot or cold it is in a state of liquid. GOD the Father is Spirit thus vapor, God the Son is solid and presented Himself in human form, God the Holy Spirit is as water flowing from the livings waters of the throne of God to all creation. The Jews will soon realize that the one who holds the crown they gave him is not who they thought he was but rather the enemy in sheep's clothing, the who presents himself as an angel of light.  All the believers will be taken up before this occurs so the Jews and the those who dwell on the earth will see the revealing of GOD's Word on their own. Their opportunity for the revelation of GOD's Truth is now and Salvation is freely given to them now but if they are not going to turn to GOD right now and receive HIS gift of Grace, Mercy and Forgiveness through a simple belief that Yeshua is exactly who HE claimed to be then GOD will allow them to suffer under the one they all freely choose for themselves. That time will be terrible but those left to suffer have openly turned their backs on GOD's free gift.

If you don't think the end times are upon us then you need to re-evaluate your understanding of the things that happening right now on this earth for a crown is being made, for presentation in the coming weeks. The belief that one Messiah will raise another from the dead certainly appears to be a direct reflection of Revelation 13:3. Something to think about but the time is short so get your heart, mind, soul and body ready for the soon arrival of the King of Kings, Praise GOD in all things. I love I hope and pray this touches someone's heart and kindles a flame of passion finding the Truth of the Word of GOD.

The Name of GOD

I have searched for 45 years for the truth of the Bible and GOD's Word and that search has taken many forms and I have followed many paths, some fulfilling and others leading to virtual confusion on my part. The father of confusion is Satan which means when you search on your own and under your own wisdom the devil will step in quickly and provide what appears to be valuable information through common knowledge clues or obscure clues disguised as little golden nuggets of the truth, they are false. Soon you are following a path that is nothing more than an elaborate circle, like a small boat with just one oar you row and row and row but a wise mind continually listens for that small quite voice and hears that it is time to look up and see the whirlpool of darkness you circumnavigate is nothingness and darkness follows closely behind. That is when you finally realize that there are essentials one must first seek but to correctly find these essential points one must be of a humble and contrite heart before our heavenly Father, clarity of purpose and clear vision comes soon. Seek the truth of GOD with all your heart, mind and soul and revelation begins to occur in small increments at first and greater knowledge then follows.

One thing that bothered me for so many years was the fact that the Bible I was reading continually stressed GOD's name, yet all I ever found was a description, or if you will an explanation of the meaning of HIS name.

Exodus 3:14 "And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you."  In Hebrew "ehyeh 'ăšer 'ehyeh". For many years I accepted this answer but I always had a sense that there was much more. Forward many years and that question began to burn in my heart and I knew there was more.

Another point I am sure most know is that YHWH is an abbreviation of GOD's name and this is what you will find in a Hebrew Bible in most instances but you will also find Hashem (The Name) Adonai and LORD, not the name of GOD. 

The Rabbi's of old, otherwise known as the Pharisees and Sadducees had decided that knowing the name of GOD was just too much power to be thrown around lightly so they basically hid the Name and only they new the real Name and the High Priest would only say it aloud once during the Day of Atonement in the Holy of Holies. It is a long story but a misguided attempt to build a wall of protection around Torah for the supposed benefit of the children of Israel but it was also intended to keep power in the hands of the elite. The name has been hidden for almost 2000 years. God said, through the prophets, that HIS name would be known throughout the world and even the gentiles would know the truth in the end days.

Well, to get to crux of the subject, I found a Karaite Jew by the name of Nehemia Gordon, a great biblical scholar from Israel, who has opened the book of Rabbinical secrets to show us all that the name of GOD has always been there, it is there without vowel points which define how a letter is pronounced. This is the part I love, Nehemia's persistence in seeking the truth has been rewarded with over a thousand documents throughout history that clearly show that the leading Orthodox Rabbinic leaders (Pharisees) have always known the truth of HIS Name but have suppressed this knowledge. There are many who will vehemently deny GOD's true name but as with all of GOD's truth Satan tries desperately to confuse and deny. Remember that GOD said in the end days all who want to know and search will know HIS true name.

The name of GOD is mentioned in the Bible 6828 times. I am satisfied that Nehemia is correct and that the Name of GOD written in English is Yehovah. Please research for yourself at Nehemia's site.

Everything is New

I have been away awhile due to illness but I'm back and ready to share what I have learned. 
I grew up an Irish Roman Catholic with an Irish Mother and Jewish German/Swedish Father who converted to Catholicism to marry, he never really had his heart in it. Well, sometime ago I went full on ancestry research with extensive DNA testing and the results were eye opening. My Father's family I knew pretty well including the fact that my Grandmother was Jewish with the maternal last name of Jacob. My Mother was Irish/Scottish and the Irish family was very old and had been in Ireland for 1000's of years and the Hamilton Catholic Scottish paternal side came over during the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745. Well, that wasn't all the truth. It turned out that not only was my Father Jewish by birth, which I did not know for years, but my Mother was very Jewish by lineage. Her DNA indicated an early and late maternal line to include Sephardic Jews from the Iberian Peninsular (Spain) with a strong presence of Basque, Moroccan,  Tunisian and finally the Mid-East origins in and around Jerusalem. I had this test preformed again at many deeper levels but this only confirmed the previous findings. 
My Irish family was shocked and my German family shrugged, I was confused.
At the time this information did not change my Christian beliefs but from that point on I had an emptiness in my soul that I could not figure out. Why would I feel this void inhabiting my heart when I was filled with the Holy Spirit of GOD leading my footsteps through this life. That Spirit led walk guided me to a consuming inquiry and search for the missing pieces and what I found was left me sitting with my mouth open, silent and simply stupefied. How could I have been a student of the Word of GOD for 49 years and never understood so much of what I had read. I was just like so many others that believed so much that wasn't the truth of what GOD has done and is continuing to do for HIS children, all children. Growing up Catholic was definitely a great hindrance to spiritual growth in GOD's Word and when I was around 10 I started asking questions that I received no answers for and when I was 14 I simply refused to have any part in a religion that lied, which I clearly pointed out when I had read the Bible for myself. The more I studied the more I was shocked and very disappointed in a Church that knew so little and shared even less, this revelation was very sad and caused a rifted in my family, my Father being the only understanding adult I could talk with but I found that he didn't really believe in anything, another sad moment.    
I spent the next 49 years searching for that which is true. In and out of Christianity, to Hinduism, Buddhism, Shintoism, Confucianism, Orthodox Greek Christianity, Gnosticism, Scientism, Satanism and others in-between, all leading to brick walls of pure emotionalism and base feelings. Although my investigation into Satanism did produce some startling results it was the one search that did lead me back to GOD and HIS WORD. I found that darkness, evil, demons and devils were quite real so if that was true than there had to be an opposing truth of light and goodness. After years of searching for GOD's Truth and His revealing to me so much truth I never learned from man's teachings that I finally understood what is so plainly written in the Scriptures, that truth can only be found in GOD and that happens on a one on one basis or if you will a prayerful, humble and repentant submission resulting in a  meeting with my Heavenly Creator and Savior. Eventually, this led to my investigation into my Jewish roots which was a Heavenly invitation to search out and discover a previously unknown book. That book turned out to be the Bible but read with new eyes and understood with new spirit filled discernment. I cannot begin to tell you the illumination I experienced once I found that my Christian Born Again background was quite insufficient to accommodate the spiritual growth that lay before me. My life before this was like finding the Temple of God and knowing that it was here I can find that which I seek and always seeing before me a small one story building with a library like interior but now I see the same one story building but upon entering I find it is so much bigger with wonderful stairways and elevators rising to many different floors. In other words, all this was always here but unknowable without daily bringing your humble and repentant heart before Our Heavenly High Priest, who stands in the Heavenly Temple performing the duties of the High Priest on the Day of Atonement. If you don't know what duties the High Priest performed on Yom Kippur then you do not know what your Savoir is doing or why!  He does this daily until that future Day of Atonement when He steps out of the Temple to reveal Himself to the people. 
I was considered a mature Christian in the Faith but the maturity was of the first degree and now I know that degree of maturity was in reality no more than kindergarten. GOD has so much more to show you and it is all in the Bible but if you can do no more than read compounded letters and discern its basic meaning than you shall miss the meaning behind each and every letter. 
We can only see colors that are within the wavelengths from 400–700 nano-meters but the full spectrum goes from one trillionth of a meter to 100 million meters. 
We can only hear in a  range commonly given as 20Hz to 20,000Hz (Hz or Hertz is defined as one cycle per second) so we can hear at levels of 20 cycles per second up to 20,000 cycles per second but the sound world is much, much larger so large in fact it is commonly referred to in multiples such as kilohertz, megahertz, gigahertz, and terahertz. 
This formulaic approach is also be true of the Bible. If your just looking at the surface wording with a myopic modern Christian understanding your only getting the basic introduction.  
Suddenly idioms that have a Western meaning will take on new meaning! The passage stating the “cock crowing three times” had nothing to do with a rooster crowing, but instead refers to the priest calling out for the commencement of the Temple services for the day!  Chickens are considered a very foul and dirty creature and they would never be allowed anywhere near the Temple but if you know nothing of Hebrew culture you wouldn't know this. How many more Bible truths have you grown up with that turn out not to be so. This is just a minuscule example believe me there are things within the Word that will make you fall out of your chair. Remember that GOD delights in Your search for HIM.

Churches! What are you doing Wrong???

I visit a new Christian church each Sunday to listen to what is being preached that day and listen to the praise music and meet and greet members. I am always asked if I am looking for a church home, which is quite expected and I always reply no I am awaiting a message about a church home. Seeing that I am a rather a new Christian but I have studied the Bible for 40 plus years I had not really contended with all the denominations currently active in my town. I knew there were differences about Sabbath Worship dates, water baptism, tongues, hands on healing etc. but I never suspected that some, modernized churches, were teaching from Politically Correct interpretation Bibles, or as I call them PCB's. I looked online at the differences and the opinions of professional bible reviewers, who knew, and I was actually quite shocked to hear them complaining about the language and especially about the treatment of homosexuals in classic bibles.

Some Christian churches in America are changing and continuing to change into shadows, an opaque vapor, a gray mist where nothing is discernable and I find it is due to these very liberal interpretations of our Bible, The Word of God. Some churches now spend 3/4's of their time singing praises and worshipping, which is good and correct when the Spirit is leading but so many times the praise service ends and there is perhaps 15 minutes of Bible Teaching and then sometimes with never a word from the Scriptures ever quoted. It is becoming quite distressing to find a group of brothers and sisters basically floundering in high surf and there is no one there to help guide back to a rocky shore. Some preachers seem to be on a time schedule and opt for the tricky quips and wide grins to end the the service. Sure they are listening to parishioners but listening to what I wonder.

There is a great cry from the hearts of these brothers and sisters caught in the downward spiraling churches for help lifting themselves up and away from nowhere sermons. Some know it and actively search out new homes while others seem lost and stuck no even realizing their predicament. My heart is sore for these people. I want to get up and say something but I am currently being led to keep quite, be nice and visit another church next week.

Something is coming to a boil in this nation and God is about to let loose the other Spirits before the Lord's Throne and great revival will begin to take shape and grow like a Kansas twister. There will be revival and many great days of praise and worship whipping through this land but like a natural twister it has a time to run its course and then slowly fades away. Watch for the young people for they are called to start this revival and this turning back to God and finding His Truth they will save many more for this is the generation of return and the generation of "The Latter Rain".

Wake up to the Message, listen to the small quite voice, re-read your Bible and you will be amazed at what God is revealing today. We need fire and brimstone preachers and evangelists and pastors who know the Word of God and do not compromise. We need teachers, preachers, pastors or priests who bless that which God has condemned and we need fire from the pulpit not complacent smiles and wry grins and winks.

There is but one message, God Loves Us and has saved us from ourselves if only we can see it and hear it.

"Let him with ears hear."

"Do you know the name of GOD?

I recently read Rabbi Johnathan Cahn's new book "The Book of Mysteries", an excellent book and a wonderful daily guide to the mysteries of GOD and his infinite love for His creation, us. I highly recommend this fine work for it is spirit filled and an additional gift from GOD to all believers. You will be blessed and your heart will be renewed and spirit filled. I have taken the liberty of expounding and connecting a few of the profound ideas Rabbi Cahn has touched upon here in his fine book and may great thanks and blessing find the Rabbi and his family and may blessings be upon the Holy Spirit for conveying these jewels to one whom can so easily transfer these deep things of GOD into simple terms for those of us who understand simple things.

"Do you know the name of GOD?

I have wondered about this subject since I was a boy when I heard "call upon the name of the Lord", my first question was always OK, and what name is that? Assuming, as I did that Howard was not his true name as my cousins tried repeatedly to tell me that we know His name because of the "Our Father" prayer, "Our Father who art in Heaven Horward be thy name,..."

Perhaps a little levity but it is amazing how confused young catholic boys can become when faced with such nonsense and unfortunately that confusion carry's on into adulthood as I can attest. I asked for the true name of God so that I may include His name in my prayers because the Bible says "If you call upon my name". GOD stated to Moses in Genesis 3:4 "
"And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you."

" I AM THAT I AM " in the English vernacular would be hayah. HaYah is a verb but verb of action.

God has included himself in your speech everyday whether you realize this or not, for you say, as an introduction, " I am Paul " I am using God's name prior to my name so God comes first in my life, again, whether you know it or not. YHVH means I AM. His name is woven into the fabric of your life and very existence, you cannot speak of yourselves in a proper way without saying His Name first. I t is rather like a trademark that identify you as a product made by Him. You only exist because of his I AM.

The secret to life is to understand that you live your life for and by HIM, allow yourself to see your actions coming from Him, that the emotions you feel in your heart flow from Him, the words you speak are originally from him. Keep all this in mind before you add to or take away from the things you say and do for a truth heart understand that your being is from God and therefore let God be Preeminent in your life.

God Chose His Sabbath at Creation For a Reason and a Purpose; Do you understand the simple things?

I wanted to comment on the "Mandela Effect" once again and simply state that all is well.  Yes, I have found changes here and there and some of them are terrible but for the Christian who know the Scriptures well none of this should not be a problem because the Word is written in your heart. I have been confronted by those who do not know the Bible well and will tell you that you must stand your ground for that ground is solid rock and those making hay of these found differences are only doing it to lift themselves with false knowledge and bring down the Word of God is their aim, whether they understand their motivations or not. Believe in the Truth and that Truth will support your spirit and soul and your communication with the Holy Spirit will remain intact and your prayer for guidance will always be answered. Fear not for nothing in this world can harm you only you can allow harm to penetrate your wall of protection so keep you eyes on God and keep reading His Word and the Truth shall penetrate your heart and strengthen your resolve.

I have had a continually nudging, I call it, from the Holy Spirit about the Seventh Day Sabbath and just how very important it is to our God ( I am GOD El Shaddai). I am continually nudged to bring it up when I visit churches in the area, although most of the time it is not really appreciated, rather like pointing out a bugger hanging from ones nose. I find most Christians don't like to even confront the idea and always fall back on the Apostle Paul for a quick and simple explanation but digging deeper I find they have no knowledge of why they meet on Sunday the first day of the week. Many weak and ineffectual answers abound but all fall apart with an investigation of the Bible.

The biggest thing that was pointed out to me was that God set aside and sanctified the seventh day at creation;

Genesis 2:3 

"And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."

The blessing and sanctification of the seventh day takes place at the beginning of creation. There were no Israelites, Jews, Muslims Christians, Hindus, Buddhists etc.. This was the very first thing God did that man needed to pay attention to. Why else would God create all things, including man, and the emphatically state that this seventh day has been set aside (for whom) and that this day is sanctified (for whose knowledge was it sanctified) surely God knew the day was special but He wanted all His creation to know that this day was special, was set aside as a Holy Convocation a Sanctified Day a day to pay close attention too.  I am sure Adam and Eve were well aware of the day of rest form their husbandry in the garden, was it a day that the Lord God visited them and walked among the garden paths with them, spending the day in their company and they spending their day of rest in His company?


The Seventh Day Sabbath the Day Of Rest has not changed from the creation, yet man has changed times and dates from the beginning to detriment and confusion of the world. Christians, if they will, should go back and re-read the Word of God anew and they will find there is so much they have over looked and or misconstrued over the years that makes so many things in their belief null and void. Go back and read and search the scriptures so that you too are among those that God has said in,

Hosea 4:6

 ^"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children"

Are the Ten Commandments the Law of God?

Exodus 20:8–10

8: "Remember and observe the Sabbath and keep it holy.

9: “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10: but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant, your animal or your stranger within your gates.”

 

Did Jesus say it is good to keep 9 out of the 10 commandments? or did He say keep all the commandments of God?

 

Revelation 14:12

 

"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

 

As said earlier this subject has been deep in my heart and I prayed about it much but God has said to speak of it when you can but do not disturb the churches for if they do not understand by now they have hardened their hearts to the Truth in many ways. Little oversights can become big oversights but let not your heart trouble you too much for His Mercy and Grace is sufficient for you and your sins.  

 

It Is Time To Pray in Earnst and Seek The Face of GOD

A dark and heavy spiritual pressure is seemingly building week by week and I sometimes succumb to the continual onslaught and find my myself crying out to my Lord and Savoir "please come soon." When this happens I stop the building process and find a chair, box, step-ladder anything with a flat spot and sit myself down and begin to pray.

The last time this happened was last week and it was so overwhelming that I began to shake and the tears rolled down my cheeks and soaked my shirt. Why did this happen? I was having a great day doing remodelling work to my house, the tile is getting done faster the wall preparations for paint (lots of wallpaper in this house), new cabinet doors, sheet rock going up smoothly and mudded everything was going just fine when I was hit by this overwhelming pressure of sadness as it enveloped me and physically pushed me to the ground.

As prayed asking the Lord to hear my pray I recieved nothing, no little voice, no infilling of gladness and happiness, no great lifting of my heart but rather a deeper and deeper sadness. Why? I asked why is this happening to me is it the dark forces around me tryng to bring me low and make me miserable? Part of the problem was as I precieved and then I hear and see in my minds eye the wordly secular condition of my country and our people and the world and her people all seemingly caught up in the world's day to day living around them and never looking to GOD. It was like holding a rope only to finally notice the rope getting smaller. Of coarse not everyone is in this sad state of affairs, there are many brothers and sisters in the WORD that are living a wonderful and loving exisistence where GOD comes first and they live day to day and seek only that which is pleasing to the LORD but they know what is pleasing to GOD because they study HIS WORD and seek his face and counsel every moment of everyday.

I see so many more people , young and old, who do not seek GOD through HIS WORD and through prayer and this has caused a dimming of the spiritual skies above me and around me, not a visible thing most days but some days the oppression is as thick as a fog and heavy like a wet blanket on my spirit and soul. When this occurs I am compelled to fall to my knees and prayer overtakes me and I ask why?, well, the answer I hear most often is "because they need it".

Then I always ask, "When are you are retuning to this world? When will the people see you are who you say you are? When will this darkness be vanquished and blinders removed and ears opened?" and the answer I hear is "SOON"

Each passing day this world produces another shock or surprize that will shake your faith but do not allow yourselves to fall in a downward spiral of deception for those are tools of the devil. GOD is here and JESUS is standing at the gates of Heavens awaiting that day soon when HE and and HIS angels will gather together HIS people and remove us from harms way, just as HE did for Noah and Lot. Be faithful and hear HIS WORD and see HIS works, for you are surround by HIS glory and never truly see it all, take time to be with HIM and HE will strengthen your soul and spirit.

What is happening in the world is just water beginning to boil and it is moving about the things upon the surface, a louder warning is coming and soon the world will begin to wonder. We who are under HIS cloak have nothing to fear for fear cannot exist where there is HIS light and that light is showing us a great door soon to be opened and the path beyond leads us back to Garden where a great feast will be held.

May GOD Bless you all and fill your hearts with awe and wonder and always consider how HE has blessed each and everyone of you for you are a miracle to behold.

New Understanding of "The Great Falling Aaway"

I have been back and forth on the "Rapture", which would be better called "The Gathering" for many years. My studies have taken me from my childhood understanding of God's refinery where raw gold is processed through a series of furnaces to melt and seperate the slag, or that which is not gold is brought to the surface of the molten gold and scraped off and thrown away. After many refining furnaces the gold is pure through and through and suitable for use as an instrument to be used in God's house, because has no sin in Him and wil not allow sin to enter His home. Exactly where this original idea sprouted I do not recall but I have had that vision in my mind since I was about 10 years old. When I became older and studied the Word of God more deeply and began to meet other Christians I began to see the correlations between this refining process and the "Born Again" understanding of renewing ones spirit through the help and guidance of the Spirit of God. For once one seeks the Truth a starting point must be found and that starting point will by God's Grace be pointedly disturbing when His Spirit displays the real existing you as God sees you. When I saw the real flawed and filthy condition God saw me in I began to grow expotentially because the truth of my life was before me and the desire God has for me were very different. To get to this position I had to breakdown and seek God because I finally saw I knew nothing though my intellect and intelligence and my ability to search out the truth lead me into a darker and darker circle of lies and deception about all things. I have seen many reach this place but have not turned to God and therefore they maintain their position in an ever spirilling downward while considering their intelligence and intellect being superior because of the knowledge of this world they have gained. They do not see that there are no conclusive answers they can find only more questions. Like being caught up in a slow turning, yet powerful, vortex of water descending drain they never reach out for the life vests tied to the rock around them simply because they don't believe they can be real because they are spiritual and therefore just crazy cerebral imaginings. Sad to see someone bypass a lifeline thinking they make it to shore under their own power.

Back to the "The Gathering" of the Saints and Souls who trust in the Lord Yahshua (Jesus). I have been pondering this gathering for years and the day before yesterday I had an epipheny when I had a serious crying and shaking breakdown asking the Lord what will become of me for I am surrounded by so many problems and it was becoming overwhelming. Well, I didn't get a big boost of an answer but rather a boost of strength and committment to see it through no matter what but hours later after having addressed many of the issues before and seeing them getting smaller and smaller I was lead to sit and contemplate the Word. That Word basically said to go online and I will show you a message to calm your mind and give you confidence in my "Gathering" together my people. The message was simple and something I do quite regularly and that is to sit down with my Bibles, Concordances, Interlinears, Dictionaries search out a word.

Apostasia was the word I was given and the search was on. "The Great Falling Away" as it has become known to the modern hearer.


1611 King James Bible
2 Thessolonians 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"


1599 Geneva Bible
1 "Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our assembling unto him,

2 That ye be not suddenly moved from your mind, nor troubled neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter, as it were from us, as though the day of Christ were at hand.

3 Let no man deceive you by any means, for that day shall not come, except there come a departing first, and that the man of sin be disclosed, even the son of perdition,".

History comes into play here when we consider King James and his interpretation. Remember that King James and England, Scotland had been going through a very tramatic period of history when we remember Henry VIII andhis desention from the Catholic church and burning at the stake and beheadings the people of England suffered during this change. After his death the protestant Queen Elizabeth I took the throne, after some confusion, of England and her Catholic cousin Queen Mary of Scotland took the throne of Scotland and tried to force catholisism on the protestants of Scotland. This did not please Elizabeth I of England and she actively tried to undermine all Mary's efforts eventually driving Mary south for protection from her protestant subjects to her fellow Queen and cousin only to find herself imprisoned and eventually beheaded. When Elizabeth died King James VI of Scotland became James the 1st of England and took the throne of England and began the compiling of the King James Bible. As a Protestant King James wanted suppress all opposition from any and all religious leaders in the country and establish himslek as did Henry VIII as the Head of the Church of England a protestant church and protestant England. I believe the King took some liberties, as is documented in history, with some of the wording being employed in the new English Bible and one of those interpretations was the the reframing of the word Apostasia into stright up Apostacy. This has become accepted throughout the years and has influenced many other Bible versions. Today it is quite common and thought that "The Great Falling Away" from the faith is what this Greek word means and meant. Not so Fast.

Greek is an inflected language, look it up, and therefore can see sematic shifts easily. As an example awful used to mean filled with awe now it means dreadful. Over time words can shift meaning depending on the times. Well, Apostacy is a word taken directly from Greek but there are many, many words in Greek that can use the same term but convey a similar but different meaning. "Apo" in Greek means; from, moving away from something near and "stasia" means spot, space or position. Depending on the context in which the word is used it can mean moving away from a formerly held position or moving from a physical place or spot.

Look this up yourself and understand that the same word is used

Timothy 2:19 "having put away" Apotheomia

Luke 4:13 "he departed from him" Aphistema

Acts 12:10 "the angel departed from him" Aphistema

2 Cor 12:8 "that it might depart from me" Aphistema

Acts 22:29 "then straightway they departed from him" Aphistema

These are just a few examples of the word Apostasia in different form meaning physically depart. The King James Bible is a great Bible but some liberties were taken here and there to influence the people that a falling away of the faith of The Church of England was biblical and therefore should not be considered (consider the times). In actuality Apostasia, the word used in that text of 2 Thessolonians 2:3 but it is also the same word used in the interpreted text of the Geneva Bible of 1599 and was there strictly used as the Greek definition states, "except there come a departing first". I believe the Geneva Bible correctly interpreted the intended meaning of the Greek word and this is Christian world changing.

Now consider the whole text Paul is conveying;

2Th 2:1Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2Th 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away (departure from this place) first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

Taken in this context it can be seen that that this verse stand to support the verse where

2Th 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

I believe this is speaking of the Holy Spirit that enfills men and women of God and that when the Holy Spirit of God is taken out of the way then the man of sin is revealed. In other words the departure from this place must first occur in order for the Beast to be fully revealed. I think Paul was telling us that a "Rapture" or "Gathering together" will be accomplished first leaving the world without the Holy Spirit of God about them, the one that restains the evil.

James 1:16

"Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren."

Take it as you may but I found great serenity and comfort knowing the we are NOT appointed to wrath, either by the Lamb, by GOD, or by the devil.

I know this not a completed study by any means but I was compelled to write it and put it before the people who are still questioning.

Mandela Effect

I been following this development for a few months and only recently delved into it head first when saw a headline stating "My King James Bible has changed!" That got my full attention. So I began searching and seeing many unusual things and finding that Yes, my bibles have also changed, not all of them but most, or so I believe. This did frighten me at the beginning for I immediately began to see where this was leading but the Holy Spirit quieted my raging heart when I heard, rather in an old fashioned vernacular "Be still your heart for the Word of GOD is written in your soul. What you see is the beginning of the great deception which must come forth as it is written." Well, immediately my blood pressure dropped and a wonderful calm peaceful spirit filled me for I knew and understood.

My message to you is that you will know what is right and what is wrong for if you are Spirit filled your guide will show you. This deception is for those who have rejected GOD and His Word, who is Jesus Yahshua the Christ. These new changes will be to redirect people to a new hope in darkness, although it will not be called darkness or even recognized as such. The great deception and great falling away will be the goal and these changes will help precipitate that new direction march.

I often tell people "That you don't know how evil evil can be or will becomes in the coming days."

Just be still your hearts and know that GOD is still on His throne and Jesus is still at His right hand awaiting the call to come forward.  

Don't join camps against one another making claims and counter-claims, confusion is of it father the devil and he trying to confuse and separate into groups people who should stand together rather like our current government as done. Don't fall into his trap now that you know it there avoid the snare and continue to love your fellow man and woman. Keep your faith in Christ for He is coming soon.

TV isn't innocent any longer

For those who find and entertain ghost programming and read your horoscopes daily and consult with mediums please be aware of the consequences. I know now because I too thought this harmless until now.
It will be through these mediums that taking the Mark of the Beast shall be seen as acceptable and following a new Sunday Law shall appear as harmless.

Deuteronomy of Abominations to GOD

Deu 18:9
 
When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.

Deu 18:10

There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,

Deu 18:11

Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.

Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.

Ecclesiastes on being dead

Ecc 9:5

For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

Ecc 9:6

Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.

Ecc 9:9

Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.

Ecc 9:10

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

Job on the grave

O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

Job 14:14

If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
Matthew on the narrow gate

Matthew 7:13

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Matthew 7:14

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it

 

Mandela Effect?

 
I see these differences but I fear not because the Spirit of GOD is within me and my salvation is assured by faith. I know that fear is driving so much of this and I pray that all of will see that we are indeed facing a falling away and a great shaking of the faith. Be firm in your faithful heart and continue to trust GOD.

The Word of GOD shall never pass away for the Word of GOD is Jesus Christ and His Word is written on my heart and my trust lies in the Word. The KJV Matthew 10:21 says something terrible will come to pass in the end of days but what is it?, and where does it start?

When both sides of an argument claim the other is mentally deficient in their knowledge of the Word this will only spark confusion and confusion is of its father the Devil. Trust in GOD and know He is the Lord and His message has not changed if it is written in your heart, mind and soul.

Trust GOD and all your fears will leave you and you shall see things with new eyes, His eyes, and hear things with new ears, His ears. Pray for those who only have a cursory knowledge of the true Word of GOD and can be easily mislead to believe a lie as the truth and the truth as a lie. There is a great deception beginning upon the earth and those who dwell upon the earth are subject to it all, so anchor yourselves upon the rock of Salvation and stir up your heart full of love for your fellow men and women. Present the Truth in Love and help calm the fears of those who are seeking GOD and His Truth. We know the Truth and the Truth does set you free from fear.  

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?

Behold the Hand Behold the Nail

I just made this as a going away gift for my neighbors and it turned out quite well considering I had no idea what I was doing in the process required to put this together, all I had was a picture in my head to begin. In my normal fashion I began adding and changing things about this particular little sculpture but it never look quite right until I prayed about it when I got the message that simple and bold is exactly what the message to mankind was so just keep the simple message in picture form and let it do it's own work on behalf of the Gospel.

In the end I still felt it necessary to ad something that would personalize the new conversation piece so the chains at the base represent the family, the black iron chain is the family's Father and the gold and silver chains are interwoven within the links of the iron chain represent the wife and child forever linked to each other and all 3 of their lives are based on and lived for the "Message of the Cross".

The resin molded hand is mounted on an beautiful agate plate of blue and white and the nail is very real and was made in a 2000 year old blacksmith shop in Turkey that actually did make iron hardware, including iron crucifixion nails for the Roman army during the time of Christ. 

What is Apostasy in the Modern World?

I have heard numerous times from those who no longer attend any form of church because what they hear from the pulpit just doesn't ring true within their hearts or they just don't see any immediate benefit by continual attendance. I can understand those who turn away because the Word never really penetrated the layers secular thought being taught daily. When the Word doesn't fully take hold of an individual it is generally because the seed of the Word has fallen on desert sands or poisoned earth, a product of the individual mind set and the pollution one has absorbed throughout their lives. This is a very sad state and indicative of one continues to go through live in a small row boat with no oars and simply drift where the current current takes them and that destination is usually the rocks, again very sad when we as Christians know that not only are oars available to those who ask but outboard motors are ready to be installed on your little lifeboat once you understand that the knowledge of God and the love of Jesus are starting place for all real wisdom. People need to understand that this falling away or great apostasy is spoken of and prophesied to occur during these end days. This falling away is another sigh that all things are converging on a single point in time when all will be revealed.  Be encouraged by these signs and know that those who hold fast run the race to completion will see the throne of God. 

I want to simply point out to those who say "I used to be Catholic, Presbyterian, Methodist, Lutheran, etc. etc." or "I used to attend church but just don't go any longer because...well I just didn't see the point any more in light of the discovers made in modern times." This is a falling away, a falling away for any reason is still an apostasy, so any testing of ones faith during this period is truly the refining of the gold ore gathered. When the apostasy is complete we who are still standing in the faith will be the nuggets gathered to present before God. Life is a refinery with the individual being in control of the gathering to themselves the gold dust and small nuggets of the Truth found during ones search for the face of God. Pretty simple really, you get to build that temple within yourself with the guidance and help of the Holy Spirit if you will but accept the hand that reaches down to help lift you from the natural morass found on this earth.

Apostasy in Christianity refers to the rejection of Christianity by someone who formerly was a Christian. The term apostasy comes from the Greek word apostasia ("ἀποστασία") meaning defection, departure, revolt or rebellion. It has been described as "a willful falling away from, or rebellion against, Christianity. Apostasy is the rejection of Christ by one who has been a Christian.

Luke 8:11–13 – Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. The ones along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away.

1 Timothy 4:1 – But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons. 
Hebrews 3:12–14 – Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.

When people say that they no longer attend any sort of church services but convince themselves they are still spiritual is like saying " I no longer display the American flag on the 4th of July because I just don't feel it but I still recognize the date on the calendar"  and I'm sure all of those around your neighborhood still recognize you as a flag waving patriot even though you no longer wave a flag on that special day. People are not good recognizing that which they cannot see, help them to see.  

Why are Christian Churches Losing Members?

I have been compelled as of late to speak openly about the current falling away from the faith of Christ in so many Christian denominations around the country. Southern Baptists and United Methodists seem to be losing fewer members than other protestant churches at a 4% decline over the last 5 years but the Catholic Church and other Mega Churches are experiencing a drop off of attendance by up to 16% over that same time period. The increase in loss in these churches is something you will hear involves many variables but I suggest that when a preacher, pastor or priest give sermons that do not reflect what the reality of the day truly is parishioners see the disconnect and ask themselves why are they preaching all this feel good stuff when the world is clearly on the edge of another World War, this one being religious in nature and world wide in scope. The time is now to teach the unblemished truth about the world around us and the signs of the times as can clearly be discerned by any novice Biblical searcher. 

Tickling the ears of parishioners with feel good preaching is just leaving a hole where the heart knows only one message and one man can fill the void and so people leave the churches because they are not receiving the meat of the banquet table but rather sugary crumbs that have no individual value to a soul trying to grow in the knowledge and teachings of God. We have reached a point in the heavenly timeline, established by God long ago, where the signs in the heavens (starts), the moon and sun are to be closely watched and recognized for the harbingers they are for the second coming of Messiah. Jesus said that no man will know the day of His return but he alerted us to the fact that we can know the Season if we but search the Word for hear the voice of truth. I believe that the time is very close to the final chapter and we need to increase our efforts to help people see that it is paramount for each individual to reassess their real relationship with Jesus Christ the Savior for it is only by the sacrificed innocent blood of Christ on the cross and the Grace of God that can save us. 

In the next few months and possibly years to come everyone will make that final decision. It is up to each individual as to whether or not their decision is well informed, through diligent searching of the scripture (as we are instructed to do) and praying or is it to be a decision that is based on the traditions of man, the knowledge of man and the teachings of man claiming to speak for God. I know that God speaks for Himself through the Bible and He leaves little room for conjecture, He speaks quite plainly and in terms that one cannot misconstrue; As you can see below there seems to be no other interpretation available if one reads the words of Christ

None of this is really very hard to understand if you read the Bible for yourself and don't rely on other telling you what you just read. It always reminds me of how the talking heads on CNN will tell you what the President just said in a speech to the nation, really, I just heard it for myself and now people on TV are telling me what I just heard because I am too stupid to understand plain English or because the spin needs to be added to keep you thinking correctly and maintain that directional process by which you are guided both consciously and unconsciously toward an outcome acceptable to the ruling parties. Churches seem to do the same thing when they tell you this is required or that is required when in fact all you have to do is remember what occured between Jesus and the thief while hanging the cross.

Luke 23:43 “Today you will be with me in paradise”

Why would the thief be with Jesus this day in paradise
unless all the thief had to do was to believe that Jesus was who said He was, no other requirement. That doesn't mean that good works will not follow your conversion, that is simply the natural outcome of taking Jesus's heart as your own but that is not one of the many requirements I have seen and heard of over the years from various Christian churches and I have been to many. Only your belief will save you.

Roman 10:9

If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Once someone understands that the Old Testament is the story of the New Testament somewhat hidden (for a good reason I might add) and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed one cannot but understand that Jesus simply put an end to all blood sacrifices, the sacrifices that would cleanse the people of their sin for 1 year, but His one time sacrifice was for past, present and future sins of mankind. There is the entire story of the Bible, God knew man could never overcome his sinful carnal nature because mankind inherited this sinful nature by blood from Adam and Eve and so man would never be able to reattain the position in the Garden of Eden we were meant for. God chose to become a man of flesh and blood and actually allow himself to be sacrificed as that once and for all innocent blood sacrifice that covers a believer with the Holy blood of Jesus, a new covering that hides the sins of man and reveals only that new covering cloak that has been washed in the blood of Christ. God loves His creation and wants to see it restored and He was willing to suffer all the pain and anguish required to spill His blood upon the Earth covering everyone. Now they just need to understand and accept this wondrous and loving gift for there is no other means to stand before God without His own blood covering your sins and sinful nature. How big a gift is that????

All people are coming to a crossroads where they get to chose where they will spend eternity.

I love God and praise Him everyday for all He has bestowed upon me but at the top of any list of the great and magnificent things He has done for me as an individual is the greatest gift of all, He loved me and you so much that He could only bring us into His presence to be with Him face to face as Abraham did by becoming the only innocent blood sacrifice that would accomplish His ends. His blood wasn't tainted by the inherited sinful blood of man and that His blood sacrifice and suffering was done to save each and every man, woman and child on this Earth, even they don't know it. The Gospel has gone out to the world and when the world hears the Gospel and either accepts it and denies it will mark the completion and the end date, 
so said Jesus;  Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." 


Pretty dramatic statement. Do you think the world has had a chance to hear the Gospel with all the means modern technology has available to us?, I believe that day is right around the corner. 

"then shall the end come."
