I don’t know why but it still amazes me how backwards things are these days.  God’s word tells me this is what we would be seeing, but yet it still stops me, stunned, when I see it.

What the world calls tolerant is really intolerant.  What is called good is evil.

He is right this is a cultural war on christianity.  They are intimidating us, calling us names, and insulting our beliefs & values.  Yet they are the tolerant.  We (Christians) are intolerant.

They are killing millions of babies in the womb, destroying the family unit, and launching incurable diseases onto our society and yet they are called good.  We (Christians) are evil.

God warned us of this time but he also promised, when we saw these things, His Son’s return would be near.

Come quickly Lord Jesus!

If you have not asked Christ into your life, the essential gospel is that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and that He was raised on the third day (1 Cor. 15:3-4).  Believing this is the only qualification for salvation.  We are sinners in need of a savior.  Jesus died for our sins, and to prove that His death was sufficient for us,  God raised Him from the dead on the third day. Believing in our heart that God raised Him from the dead is our assurance that He will raise us, too.
 3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, (1 Cor. 15:3-4).

STOP taking Pastor Dennis Terry out of context. He said NOTHING wrong!

by The Right Scoop

***UPDATED***

I’m so tired of group think.

The left has gotten themselves in an uproar over comments made by Pastor Dennis Terry at a church-campaign event for Rick Santorum, and even some on the right are accepting their false premise. First, watch the video if you haven’t seen it:

Now let me ask you what was wrong with anything Pastor Terry said? Well if you ask those on the left, they say he’s telling non-Christians and liberals to get out of America. But that’s not at all what he said. Allow me to properly phrase his so-called controversial comments the way he delivered them:

The thing I love about Jack Kelly’s articles is the simplicity with which he peels back so many layers of the onion (layers of scriptural truth/meanings).

The topic of this article is so very important during these last days that are so filled with deception.  It regards our salvation.

We not only need to know “how we are saved” but why it works the way it does.  It reveals the genius of God.

Jack lays it out beautifully and by knowing “why”, your belief and faith will be strengthened.  Just as study of prophecy strengthen’s our faith.

Enjoy!

God Bless!

Believe in Your Heart

by Jack Kelly

If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead you will be saved (Rom 10:9).

We’ve all confessed (give assent to or acknowledge) with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and understand its importance to our salvation, but what about the “believe in your heart” portion of the verse?

In Romans 10:10 Paul goes on to say that it’s with our heart that we believe and are justified. The Greek word translated justify is from dikaios which means to be innocent or holy. The King James translates this word “believe unto righteousness” meaning that our belief in the resurrection is what brings us our righteousness, allowing God to regard us as though we’re innocent of any sin and therefore holy.

The key contributor to the fog of deception that has enveloped this planet is the “media” (at least the key worldly contributor).  It has taken many forms.  There is the actual re-writing of history or the facts.  There is the well know concept of “spinning” of stories or redefining/omitting certain statements or facts.  And then there is the most egregious which is completely ignoring stories or facts that have surfaced.

It is the latter that is discussed below.  I am simply stunned at how we can know so little about the most powerful man in America.  I don’t care which party, race, or religion they hail from.  It is astounding the complete blackout that has occurred on his past.

Not just ignoring, but legally and illegally working to freeze/destroy any information that would give insights into his past.  Coupled with this complete blackout is the complete lack of desire to know the truth or facts about him.

So many people here on this little planet could care less to know who he really is and what he has stood for in the past.  It even goes further that people are aggressively attacking and smearing anyone that raises the question.  It is as if you are a leper and lunatic for even asking the question.

It is not of this world, it is supernatural, people are blinded to what is happening right in front of their eyes.

It is really spooky!

We are definitely living in the last days!

May God Bless us and keep us safe!

The Day the Media Died…

This was the day the media died – officially.

The most well-read news story anywhere got no mention on Fox News, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, the New York Times or any other so-called “mainstream” news outlet – a laughable adjective.

The story wasn’t overlooked. It was deliberately spiked. The media knew it was coming. They didn’t want any part of it.

But it gets worse.

Big time talk-radio was tipped off on the story, as well – in advance. They didn’t bite, either. Too hot.

Thank God for Matt Drudge – who placed it at the top of his page. That’s how millions got the first-person, eyewitness evidence that Barack Obama was helped through Harvard by the family of domestic terrorist Bill Ayers back in the late 1980s. You remember him – just a guy from the neighborhood, Obama told us in 2008.

It may seem like hopelessly bad news that the U.S. media – even much of the so-called “alternative” media – are so tightly controlled. But it’s not. The good news is that a story like this can still be read and seen by millions despite the control. It can still be bigger than any of the pap being dished out by so-called “news organizations,” which are sometimes no more than gatekeepers guarding their own narrow special interests.

When ever Joel lays out the relationship between prophecy and the events we are seeing today, I tend to listen.  He has always stayed true to God’s Word on the topic, which is why I think he has such a good track record.

The quote from the host Pastor of the conference really summed up well the feelings I have been having recently.

“It seems that there is a sense in the spiritual air we breathe that things are unraveling quickly. The slide is not unstoppable. It will take a great awakening, a supernatural intervention, an act of God, to turn us back from the precipice toward which we run.”

Time is Short, we need to step up our effort of outreach as a church, it is no time for our churches to be asleep at the wheel.  The Rapture draws near!

God Bless!

PREPARE CHURCHES FOR INEVITABLE: America, Israel and the Church are at risk

February 13, 2012
By Joni B. Hannigan, Managing Editor, Florida Baptist Witness

JACKSONVILLE (FBW)—The handwriting is on the wall and war between Iran and Israel is imminent, Joel Rosenberg, an evangelical Christian and New York Times best-selling author, told the last session of the First Baptist Jacksonville Pastors’ Conference Jan. 29.

“War is coming,” Rosenberg said. “You and I are living in an extraordinary moment in one of the most dangerous moments in the history of our country; one of the most dangerous moments in the history of Israel and the Middle East; and one of the most dangerous moments in the history of the church.”

And the question is, “Are we ready for what could be coming?”

The video in the link below is short but backed full of wisdom.

The two items that stood out most was the belief some are preaching that it is not possible to follow the 10 commandments and that they were “nailed to the cross” and that we no longer fall under their influence.

This couldn’t be further from the truth.  It is our lack of studying the bible that has led so many astray.  Here is the scripture that references the topic.

When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross (Col 2:13-14).

The key focus of the message is sin.  How we are forgiven for all sins (past, present and future) under the new covenant that he was establishing with the church through His Son’s death on the cross.  We are no longer saved through adherence to the law (like the Jewish people) but through faith and belief in Jesus Christ, our savior.  The law is still valid, how else can we tell if we sin and need to repent.  It is still the way we should aim to live.  It is the way Christ lived, following the 10 commandments.

Jesus multiple times spoke of the commandments and their importance.  Paul also spoke at length about “the law” which is front and center represented by the 10 commandments as well as the old testament.  (Romans) He stated that without the Law, we do not know what sin is and that we need to repent.  It is not the law the makes us sin, we are all sinners, but without the law we would not know the standards we are measured against.

We would not know that we are sinners and in need of a savior.  We are never “good” enough as we are all filled with sin, believers and unbelievers.  It is the believers that through the Law and Jesus’ teachings know they need a savior and that they have sinned.

This is where so many fail in preaching God’s word to unbelievers, we must first show them that they are sinners just like us and then it will make sense why they need a savior.

If someone does not know they are falling from a plane, it would not make sense as to why they need a parachute.

Something to ponder…

Amazing video, I think Ray Comfort drills into the true basics that a lot of us Christians have missed or forgotten through all of the noise and distractions (deception) this world throws at us.  As I watched it, I could see myself and friends I know in the position of the two young believers he is interviewing.

It is so important, and counter intuitive to this world, to remember we are not to put our “faith” in ourselves but in Jesus Christ (God).  We are to keep our eyes on Him and not this world.  We cannot save ourselves through being “good” or even repenting.  We are all sinners and no one is good enough.

It is only through faith in Jesus and His gift to us through His death on the cross.  He overcame death and is preparing a place for us to be with Him always.  He sent us the Holy Spirit to be sealed, yes sealed, within us always.  No one can remove it.

It is the simplest message and promise but very easy to forget or overlook.

God’s Word, the Bible, is inerrant.  The translation I like calls it “God Breathed”.  It has never been wrong and verifies itself through prophecy.

Make sure to watch the video.

God Bless!

This is an amazing list the David has pulled together.  It came out a while back and I hadn’t had a chance to read through the entire list.  We all knew in our heart during the interrogation of Rev. Graham that he was right.  There is a reason why Americans in poll after poll do not believe he is a Christian, maybe not a muslim, but definitely not a Christian.  It all goes back to you will know a tree from its fruit.

Luke 6:43-45 (NKJV)

A Tree Is Known by Its Fruit

43 “For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. 44 For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. 45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

And listed below is the fruit Obama has been producing when it comes to religion.

I can not imagine having any of these stances and considering myself a Christian.

Once you see the list compiled, it is clear why Americans, especially Christians, have such a hard time with his claim.

Praise be to God for the wisdom He has left for us in His good book: The Bible.

God Bless!

Barton Calls Obama ‘America’s Most Biblically-Hostile U.S. President’

Is President Barack Obama America’s most “Biblically-hostile U.S. president?” This is the label that conservative historian David Barton has given Obama, as the nation continues its debate over the president’s controversial contraceptive mandate.

But for Barton, the situation transcends the current discussion about religious freedom and the Catholic Church, as the frequent guest on Glenn Beck’s radio and television shows develops his provocative argument in detail. He writes:

When one observes President Obama’s unwillingness to accommodate America’s four-century long religious conscience protection through his attempts to require Catholics to go against their own doctrines and beliefs, one is tempted to say that he is anti-Catholic. But that characterization would not be correct. Although he has recently singled out Catholics, he has equally targeted traditional Protestant beliefs over the past four years. So since he has attacked Catholics and Protestants, one is tempted to say that he is anti-Christian. But that, too, would be inaccurate. He has been equally disrespectful in his appalling treatment of religious Jews in general and Israel in particular. So perhaps the most accurate description of his antipathy toward Catholics, Protestants, religious Jews, and the Jewish nation would be to characterize him as anti-Biblical. And then when his hostility toward Biblical people of faith is contrasted with his preferential treatment of Muslims and Muslim nations, it further strengthens the accuracy of the anti-Biblical descriptor. In fact, there have been numerous clearly documented times when his pro-Islam positions have been the cause of his anti-Biblical actions.

Barton then goes on to list, in chronological order, the president’s purported attacks in the following sections:

(1) numerous records of his attacks on Biblical persons or organizations; (2) examples of the hostility toward Biblical faith that have become evident in the past three years in the Obama-led military; (3) a listing of his open attacks on Biblical values; and finally (4) a listing of numerous incidents of his preferential deference for Islam’s activities and positions, including letting his Islamic advisors guide and influence his hostility toward people of Biblical faith.

Parts One and Two can be read, below:

1. Acts of hostility toward people of Biblical faith:

  • April 2008 – Obama speaks disrespectfully of Christians, saying they “cling to guns or religion” and have an “antipathy to people who aren’t like them.”
  • February 2009 – Obama announces plans to revoke conscience protection for health workers who refuse to participate in medical activities that go against their beliefs, and fully implements the plan in February 2011.
  • April 2009 – When speaking at Georgetown University, Obama orders that a monogram symbolizing Jesus’ name be covered when he is making his speech. 
  • May 2009 – Obama declines to host services for the National Prayer Day (a day established by federal law) at the White House.
  • April 2009 – In a deliberate act of disrespect, Obama nominated three pro-abortion ambassadors to the Vatican; of course, the pro-life Vatican rejected all three.
  • October 19, 2010 – Obama begins deliberately omitting the phrase about “the Creator” when quoting the Declaration of Independence – an omission he has made on no less than seven occasions.
  • November 2010 – Obama misquotes the National Motto, saying it is “E pluribus unum” rather than “In God We Trust” as established by federal law.
  • January 2011 – After a federal law was passed to transfer a WWI Memorial in the Mojave Desert to private ownership, the U. S. Supreme Court ruled that the cross in the memorial could continue to stand, but the Obama administration refused to allow the land to be transferred as required by law, and refused to allow the cross to be re-erected as ordered by the Court.
  • February 2011 – Although he filled posts in the State Department, for more than two years Obama did not fill the post of religious freedom ambassador, an official that works against religious persecution across the world; he filled it only after heavy pressure from the public and from Congress.
  • April 2011 – For the first time in American history, Obama urges passage of a non-discrimination law that does not contain hiring protections for religious groups, forcing religious organizations to hire according to federal mandates without regard to the dictates of their own faith, thus eliminating conscience protection in hiring.
  • August 2011 – The Obama administration releases its new health care rules that override religious conscience protections for medical workers in the areas of abortion and contraception.
  • November 2011 – Obama opposes inclusion of President Franklin Roosevelt’s famous D-Day Prayer in the WWII Memorial. 
  • November 2011 – Unlike previous presidents, Obama studiously avoids any religious references in his Thanksgiving speech.
  • December 2011 – The Obama administration denigrates other countries’ religious beliefs as an obstacle to radical homosexual rights.
  • January 2012 – The Obama administration argues that the First Amendment provides no protection for churches and synagogues in hiring their pastors and rabbis.
  • February 2012 – The Obama administration forgives student loans in exchange for public service, but announces it will no longer forgive student loans if the public service is related to religion.

2. Acts of hostility from the Obama-led military toward people of Biblical faith:

  • June 2011 – The Department of Veterans Affairs forbids references to God and Jesus during burial ceremonies at Houston National Cemetery.
  • August 2011 – The Air Force stops teaching the Just War theory to officers in California because the course is taught by chaplains and is based on a philosophy introduced by St. Augustine in the third century AD – a theory long taught by civilized nations across the world (except America).
  • September 2011 – Air Force Chief of Staff prohibits commanders from notifying airmen of programs and services available to them from chaplains.
  • September 2011 – The Army issues guidelines for Walter Reed Medical Center stipulating that “No religious items (i.e. Bibles, reading materials and/or facts) are allowed to be given away or used during a visit.”
  • November 2011 – The Air Force Academy rescinds support for Operation Christmas Child, a program to send holiday gifts to impoverished children across the world, because the program is run by a Christian charity.
  • November 2011 – The Air Force Academy pays $80,000 to add a Stonehenge-like worship center for pagans, druids, witches and Wiccans.
  • February 2012 – The U. S. Military Academy at West Point disinvites three star Army general and decorated war hero Lieutenant General William G. (“Jerry”) Boykin (retired) from speaking at an event because he is an outspoken Christian. 
  • February 2012 – The Air Force removes “God” from the patch of Rapid Capabilities Office (the word on the patch was in Latin: Dei).
  • February 2012 – The Army orders Catholic chaplains not to read a letter to parishioners that their archbishop asked them to read.

You can read the entire categorized listing here.

It is amazing how the attacks can continue as well as the deception from both our government and the media.

We should not have to pay for anything that violates our religious beliefs.

It is just that simple.

Oh the boldness that is show during these last days and just when you thought they couldn’t get any bolder, they can.

‘Religious Freedom Violations’: These Are the Obama Admin‘s Contraceptive Mandate ’Concessions’

Religious Freedom Violations: These Are the Obama Admins Contraception Mandate Concessions

As the contraceptive mandate continues to be a topic of conversation in media and on the campaign trail, the Obama administration has been faced with a difficult scenario: either make concessions or risk potential political fallout.

The national conversation surrounding Rush Limbaugh and Sandra Fluke did, to a degree, temporarily relieve some pressure from officials. Nevertheless, the Catholic Church and its supporters have been adamant about the religious freedom violations associated with the mandate. Now, it seems officials have moved, albiet slightly, in a direction faith leaders may find palatable.

‘An Agenda For All Humanity’: Labour Candidate for London Mayor Sees Islam as Blueprint

If a politician said he wanted to “cement our city as a beacon that demonstrates the meaning of the words of the Prophet,” one might assume that politician came from Syria, Iran or maybe even one of Egypt’s more radical Muslim factions. But they’d be wrong. That person is, in fact, the Labour Party’s candidate for London Mayor, Ken Livingstone.

The Daily Telegraph found the above video of Livingstone’s speech, and wrote this about it:

Mr Livingstone, Labour’s candidate for mayor of London, pledged to “educate the mass of Londoners” in Islam, saying:  “That will help to cement our city as a beacon that demonstrates the meaning of the words of the Prophet.” Mr Livingstone described Mohammed’s words in his last sermon as “an agenda for all humanity.”

He praised the Prophet’s last sermon, telling his audience: “I want to spend the next four years making sure that every non-Muslim in London knows and understands [its] words and message.” He also promised to “make your life a bit easier financially.”

Mr Livingstone was speaking at last Friday’s Jummah prayer at the North London Central Mosque, also known as Finsbury Park Mosque, formerly controlled by the terrorist recruiter Abu Hamza.

The Mosque in question:

Russian Anti-Terror Troops Arrive in Syria

By (@KiritRadia_ABC) and RYM MOMTAZ
MOSCOW, Russia, March 19, 2012

A Russian military unit has arrived in Syria, according to Russian news reports, a development that a United Nations Security Council source told ABC News was “a bomb” certain to have serious repercussions.

Russia, one of President Bashar al-Assad’s strongest allies despite international condemnation of the government’s violent crackdown on the country’s uprising, has repeatedly blocked the United Nations Security Council’s attempts to halt the violence, accusing the U.S. and its allies of trying to start another war.

Now the Russian Black Sea fleet’s Iman tanker has arrived in the Syrian port of Tartus on the Mediterranean Sea with an anti-terror squad from the Russian Marines aboard according to the Interfax news agency. The Assad government has insisted it is fighting a terrorist insurgency. The Russian news reports did not elaborate on the Russian troops’ mission in Syria or if they are expected to leave the port.

The presence of Russian troops in Syria could be a “pretty obvious” show of support to the regime, according to Russian security expert Mark Galeotti.

“No one thinks of the Russians as anything but Assad’s last friends,” said Galeotti, professor of global affairs at New York University.

Sweden moving towards cashless economy

(AP) STOCKHOLM – Sweden was the first European country to introduce bank notes in 1661. Now it’s come farther than most on the path toward getting rid of them.

“I can’t see why we should be printing bank notes at all anymore,” says Bjoern Ulvaeus, former member of 1970’s pop group ABBA, and a vocal proponent for a world without cash.

The contours of such a society are starting to take shape in this high-tech nation, frustrating those who prefer coins and bills over digital money.

In most Swedish cities, public buses don’t accept cash; tickets are prepaid or purchased with a cell phone text message. A small but growing number of businesses only take cards, and some bank offices — which make money on electronic transactions — have stopped handling cash altogether.

“There are towns where it isn’t at all possible anymore to enter a bank and use cash,” complains Curt Persson, chairman of Sweden’s National Pensioners’ Organization.

He says that’s a problem for elderly people in rural areas who don’t have credit cards or don’t know how to use them to withdraw cash.

The decline of cash is noticeable even in houses of worship, like the Carl Gustaf Church in Karlshamn, southern Sweden, where Vicar Johan Tyrberg recently installed a card reader to make it easier for worshippers to make offerings.

“People came up to me several times and said they didn’t have cash but would still like to donate money,” Tyrberg says.

Bills and coins represent only 3 percent of Sweden’s economy, compared to an average of 9 percent in the eurozone and 7 percent in the U.S., according to the Bank for International Settlements, an umbrella organization for the world’s central banks.

Pastor JD’s most recent prophecy update.  He looks at earthquakes and some of the deception around answers give for the question in the title.  He also gets into the why would God use such destruction.

Being thick-headed myself, I believe it is to get our attention.

I personally have been watching earthquakes daily and it seems like this year we are having a 6.0 pretty much every day.  Last year it was a 5.0’s that you would see everyday.  Definitely a magnitude increase.

Check it out!

God Bless

The following three articles are different examples of how we are seeing deception play out in these last days as well of the effects of that deception: good is evil and evil is good.  Everything is backwards.

First is an article on the situation our troops are facing and the complete deception on facts we are receiving.  Where is the gratitude?  Where is the thankfulness for our young men and women laying down their lives to try and help them?  There is none.  That seems to be the norm these days.  The Days of Noah are upon us!

Second is an article on what we are turning our country into: Entitlement USA.  We are told day and night that everything we are doing is good and positive.  But we are really destroying both those we are “helping” as well as ourselves with this unsustainable aid.  Where is the genuine gratitude?  All I hear is bold entitlement.  The attitude and entitlement is simply amazing in the attached video.  My favorite line was plaintiff response to the question what do you do?

Answer?  Drum roll please…

“I’m me!”

Third is an article about a topic most having probably never heard about.  It was an article run only on WND.com and then discussed by Rush Limbaugh Radio.  The complete media blackout on this is simply amazing.  The double standard is breath taking and the description obvious.  It is becoming bolder and bolder, as deception envelops this world and the hour grows late. (Birth pains?)

All three articles are must reads.  With deception becoming the norm we must look harder for the truth and pass it on when we find it as many are being deceived. (As Christ said!)  I will try to do some of that hear but check out the sources on my links section (right hand side) they are the sources of truth I have been able to find so far.

God Bless!

Have you ever given any thought to what this world would be like under an Antichrist led “One World Government”?

I have.  I am sure you may have as well given the times we live in.

I always end up with the same bottom-line:  “control”.

That is the lynch pin that is needed.  It is why I post so many articles under the One World Government category that relate to us losing our rights and freedom.

The walls are closing in rapidly on this world.  Like the trash compactor in Star Wars, one of my favorite movies.

The link below goes to a series of video clips of an impassioned monologue on what is being done, this very day to our farms.

It is about control, it is not in our best interests, and it is evil from satan himself.

My favorite quote is in the second to last clip when he states (paraphrased): “When have they ever been right?  Why would we listen to them?”

This is truly a must see series of videos.  It is not meant to be political, put that aside, this is about good and evil.  Good morals verses bad.

It is about man’s freedom.

Watch it, and be aware of what is closing in around us.

But fear not, for God promises to keep us from the coming tribulation!

Revelation 3:10
Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

Jesus will soon come for his Bride, the hour is late, the Bridegroom is at the door.

Maranatha! – Come Lord Jesus, Come!

A great prophecy update this week from my favorite pastor.

He explores the link between the our backing of Israel and the severe weather we are seeing.

It all stems from God’s prophecy in Zechariah 12:3

Zechariah 12:3 – (NIV)

3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.

It is amazing how precisely the amazing “natural disasters” (or “Acts of God”) occurred around our leaders “support” of Israel.

Some might say coincidence?

I no longer believe in “coincidence” or “luck”.  God’s hand is at work in our lives and this world.

He has a purpose for each and every one of us in his plan!

Amazing article, there is really nothing to add.  They layout out God’s word on the subject very well.  Must read!

Folks we are under attack, it is more veiled than our brothers and sisters overseas, but it is the first stages, we are seeing that veil coming off.

God’s prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes…

True Love, Homosexuality, and the Kirk Cameron ‘Controversy’

(Wednesday, 14 March 2012 19:56)


By Dr. Ted Baehr and Dr. Tom Snyder

Recently, a few hate-filled activists directed their bigotry against actor Kirk Cameron of “Fireproof” and TV’s “Growing Pains.” Kirk’s offense? He dared to say that God tries to protect us from self-destruction by warning us against such things as homosexuality and adultery and by declaring marriage to be a sacred union of one man and one woman.

 

So much for the godless, phony left-wing virtue of “tolerance”!

As Kirk said in his response, “I should be able to express moral views on social issues. . . without being slandered, accused of hate speech, and told from those who preach ‘tolerance’ that I need to either bend my beliefs to THEIR moral standards or be silent when I’m in the public square.”

Kirk Cameron was exactly correct when he said on the “Piers Morgan Show” that the God declares marriage to be a sacred act between one man and one woman. As some pundits humorously quip, “God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!”

Contrary to what the haters might say, Jesus Christ Himself preached what Kirk Cameron said about marriage and homosexual lust.

In Matthew 19:1-12, Jesus quotes Genesis 1:27 and Genesis 2:24, saying, “Haven’t you read that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female, and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his gather and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So, they are no longer two, but one. Therefore, what God has joined together, let man not tear asunder.”

Earlier, in Chapter 5 of Matthew, Jesus says he didn’t come to Earth to abolish God’s Law, but to fulfill it. He adds, in verse 19, “Whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.”

Thus, in teaching these things, Jesus affirms the Law of God in Chapter 18 of Leviticus in the Five Books of Moses. In that passage in Leviticus, God explicitly warns Moses and the Israelites that adultery, homosexuality, incest, bestiality, paganism, and child sacrifice are all self-destructive, abusive and abhorrent.

Jesus explicitly says in Mark 7:20-23, “What comes out of a person—that defiles him. For from within, out of people’s hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immoralities, thefts, murders, adulteries, greed, evil actions, deceit, promiscuity, stinginess, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a person.”

Radical leftists and extremists such as those who condemned Kirk Cameron like to talk about love, hope, change, and other platitudes they don’t really mean, but do they ever define these values? Except in ways that cast scorn on their political enemies while self-righteously extolling their own arrogance and power?

Well, Jesus Christ and His apostles define them.

In the New Testament, Jesus talks about loving God with all our mind, heart, and soul. He also commands us to love our neighbor. In 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, Paul defines true Christian love for us:

“Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not envy, is not boastful, is not conceited, does not act improperly, is not selfish, is not provoked, and does not keep a record of wrongs. Love doesn’t delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”

Thus, Jesus Christ teaches us to tell our neighbors to turn away from self-destruction and cruelly abusing others to believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ, be baptized by the Holy Spirit and filled with His power and start doing good.

In other words, the hope and change that America really needs is for her citizens to turn away from evils like adultery, rape, homosexuality, lying, arrogance, theft, murder, and malice and to rejoice in the Truth of the Gospel of Real Love – Jesus Christ.

Kirk Cameron was perfectly correct when he said homosexuality is “unnatural” and “destructive.”

In fact, studies also have shown that, not only are adult homosexual males three or four times more likely to sexually abuse a child or a young teenager, homosexual service men and women in the military are at least five times more likely to engage in rape.

In addition, people who define themselves as homosexual are more likely to commit suicide, more likely to get sexually transmitted diseases, more likely to get depressed, and more likely to have mental, emotional, and behavioral problems.

Finally, our annual analysis of the movie box office shows that movies with no homosexual content whatsoever make the most amount of money.

Given all these facts, why is anyone in the mass media of entertainment still promoting homosexuality and condemning people like Kirk Cameron when they speak out against it unless they themselves have been trapped by the “lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life” (1 John 2:16)?

Especially when their own audience isn’t buying what they’re selling?

Loving people all over the world should work to heal those trapped in the lust that is never satisfied, so they can really love, by learning how to give, share, and care —  as Jesus Christ demonstrated in His Life on earth and in His Resurrected love for all mankind.

I feel like we are being setup.  Maybe “conditioned” is a better term.  It is a slow creeping persecution that has taken 20-30 years to crescendo.  It is a war on beliefs.  It is a war on speech.  It is intimidation at its core and it is from Satan.

What am I talking about?  I am talking about the slow death we are experiencing through “political correctness”, PC and the manufactured “outrage” that usually follows.

This really struck a chord with me while watching some MSM interviews of strong Christians.  The last straw probably started with the Franklin Graham interview and snapped as I watched the Kirk Cameron and Michelle Bachmann interviews yesterday and today.

This PC concept seems to expand every so often to restrict our rights further with each expansion.  This period expansion seems to be around the concept of “Judgment”.  It appears now that by stating our beliefs and opinions as Christians, we are “judging” others and causing them to be “offended” (the last few years major expansion).

Not only can we not express our beliefs but when asked directly by these same people what our beliefs are we are to bite our tongues or lie.  Otherwise we will offend and judge others.

If you have been following the news at all, especially the MSM, you undoubtedly have heard about the embattled Sandra Fluke.

I bring this up simply as the latest example of how deception is so prevalent in the world today.  How many times over the last 3-4 years have we been presented a story under one premise and yet eventually with the most minimal amount of digging, it turns out to be the exact opposite situation or at very least something very different from the premise originally sold: basically a Lie.

This used to be a big deal (media field day) but now a days we have gotten so use to it that there is no outrage, just a shrug of the shoulders and some muttering under your breath and we move on.  Satan and the Media know this.

How many times is that happening each day to you?  Is it happening more this month than last?  Or have you just stopped tuning in?

I would propose the deception is the new normal these days.  The exception is the truth and it shines so bright you can’t look directly at it.  Could this be God’s plan?  Christ told us we were the light of the world and that we should not hide our light.  Is it not true that a light shines brighter on a dark day, or at the midnight hour?

How bright would our light (the Truth of God’s Word) shine if we were bold enough to stand up and let it shine?  Something to think about and pray about.

How Bold are we?  How dark is our world? How dark is it around us?

Maranatha!

God Bless!

This is a must watch half hour special that has been put together on our stance on Israel over the last three years.  We have not been their ally.  We have been anything but.  The US need to ponder God’s prophecy from Zechariah 12:2-3.

Zechariah 12:1-5 – (NIV)

Jerusalem’s Enemies to Be Destroyed

An Oracle 1 This is the word of the LORD concerning Israel. The LORD, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the spirit of man within him, declares: 2 “I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. 3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. 4 On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness,” declares the LORD. “I will keep a watchful eye over the house of Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations. 5 Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts, ‘The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the LORD Almighty is their God.’

Keep this passage in mind as you watch the video below.  We and the rest of the world are fulfilling as we sit here tonight…

God Bless Israel!

It is amazing to see how far we have come to accepting our new world religion and without even realizing it.

It is really our new world religion and new world government all rolled into one nice neat and tight package.  Most are not aware they are even submitting to it.  Diana West does and excellent job laying out how it is happening right in front of us.

Every time I read these articles on Islam’s reactions to perceived transgressions, my mind immediately shifts to what will happen after the rapture of Christ’s church.  You can actually feel the Church /Holly Spirit restraining the rage and violence of Islam. (Like someone banging on a door while you hold it shut.)

How quickly will that accelerate once the Restrainer is removed.  It is not beyond belief that over night submission would occur, it is already occurring today.  Pretty scary stuff if you believe you will be left behind or will have to live through it.

But the Good News is that Christ promises to keep His bride from this time.  He tells us when we see these things look up and keep your eyes on Him!

It is like they tell someone frozen by fear on a ledge to not look down and to keep their eyes locked on the rescuer.  Christ is our rescuer, Savior!  For we can not do it ourselves, only through Him.  We need to keep our eyes locked on him.

We are not of this world, and we will be leaving soon.

Lord come quickly, to remove us from this world!

If you haven’t come to Christ yet, come to him now, time is short.  Read Romans 10:9, profess your belief in him, and ask Him into your heart.

Romans 10:9 – (NIV)

If you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead you will be saved.

Islamic rages and America’s dhimmitude

Diana West: U.S. dangerously falters by submitting to violent Muslim dictates

Six U.S. military men have been murdered by Afghan security forces seized by what may be labeled Quran-Burning Rage.

These murders are an outrage in and of themselves, but it’s crucial we don’t see them as isolated. They fit into a pattern that above all spreads “dhimmitude,” the submissive state of Christians and Jews (known under Islam as the “dhimmi”) in thrall to Islamic law.

Quran-Burning Rage follows Pastor Jones Rage, which, after a Florida pastor burned a Quran in 2011, seized Afghan Muslims and inspired rioting. Some rioters overran a United Nations outpost and murdered seven U.N. personnel.

Pastor Jones Rage followed “Fitna” Rage, which seized Muslims worldwide even before the release of Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders’ short 2008 film “Fitna.” That film sparked rioting, arson, boycotts, death threats and, as a bonus, charges that led to the protracted trial in the Netherlands of Wilders for “insulting Muslims.” (He was acquitted in 2011.)

One of the things I have been praying for understanding of, is the concept of watchmen.  It is mentioned many times in the Bible, both old and new testament.  It was a very important role in the times of the Bible, with significant responsibilities.  Jesus himself used the word watchmen and also repeatedly mentioned: to be watchful, watch.

What I have been lead to is Ezekiel.  We that are awake and aware of the signs have a greater responsibility.

Some of the quotes in the article below are simply amazing.  The boldness that evil has taken, we must be on the doorstep of seeing our Lord Return for us.

The scary part is he mentions that this tactic has worked with other media outlets.  How can we trust that we are hearing the truth?  Deception was to be the theme of the last days.  We are seeing it.

Some of the article was repetitive with what I posted yesterday, but here is the newest response they have gotten from the Islamic organization issuing the threats…

Contacted by WND at a telephone number in Africa, Mohammedi could cite no specific issues with WND’s reporting. Nor would he immediately provide information on how he has dealt with other media reports he’s found objectionable.

Instead, he promised to respond to WND by email with documentation about those cases.

Today, he contacted WND again, but not to provide documentation he had promised.

“Before I send you an example of how we dealt with other media outlets regarding Islamophobic and religiously racist content I would like to share with you our latest message from the global caliphate to the Muslim world; I’ve taken the time to have it translated for you in the attached,” Mohammedi’s email said.

“You see … there’s an easy and peaceful way in which people can come to terms based on common grounds of mutual respect and there’s the other way and it’s called silence,” he continued.

“I hope you will take the time to try and extract the value and much needed understanding from this communication. I have referred the matter of monitoring WND and it’s (sic) employees to our higher council of senior Ulama for instructions based on what we have found on the history of WND’s online activities.”

The attachment was a 23-page brochure promoting a worldwide Islamic caliphate. Called “The Global Islamic Civilization: The Power of a Nation Revived,” it said, “People who follow Islam are divinely selected and guided by the Almighty Allah Himself, these people then form part of a great Islamic civilization, that are united as one nation. a universal empire, known as the Muslim Ummah.”

The religious tract lauds the characteristics of true believers as humility, piety, honesty, loyalty, obedience, good conduct, peacefulness and morality. Those who fall outside of Islam are made up of “ignorance, arrogance, deception, faithlessness, disobedient, indecent conduct, war mongering.”

“Can you imagine having leadership based on the implementation of the qualities of believers? Can you imagine a family, a community a city, a country, No! a nation! built on such a beautiful standard of character. It would be the most moral society on the face of the earth, it is such people that deserve full respect and honor, it is such people who not only deserve to rule the world, it is their right to rule the world.”

Can anyone say One World Religion and One World Government rolled into one?  What do you think will happen when all of the Christians are raptured?

The following part of the quote sent a chill over me as pure evil, something out of a movie:

“You see … there’s an easy and peaceful way in which people can come to terms based on common grounds of mutual respect and there’s the other way and it’s called silence,” he continued.

or

Mohammedi told WND in the telephone interview that his concern is that publishing material he doesn’t like “creates a problem on a global scale.”

“Some people have different ways of reacting to different articles that are published,” he said. “We’re trying to prevent certain unwanted events from happening due to these publications.

“We need that (publication) to come to an end because if you want peace and stability around the world, you would need these things to come to an end as well.”

Wow!

Lord come quickly, to remove us from this world!

If you haven’t come to Christ yet, come to him now, time is short.  Read Romans 10:9, profess your belief in him, and ask Him into your heart.

Romans 10:9 – (NIV)

If you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead you will be saved.

Muslim threats against WND heat up

A leader of an Islamic group that warned WND to “moderate” its reporting on issues involving Islam because of the way Muslims may react is ratcheting up the pressure, telling a reporter today, “There’s an easy and peaceful way in which people can come to terms based on common grounds of mutual respect and there’s the other way and it’s called silence.”

The email came today from Faarooq al Mohammedi, who has said he is working on behalf of the Muslim organization called United Muslim Nations International organization.

He initially contacted WND with a warning to take “extra precaution when publishing religiously sensitive material or in creating religiously sensitive suspicions about peoples (sic) religious beliefs and practices.”

Matthew 24:36-38 – (NKJV)

36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,

There are so many signs around us today that this prophecy is coming to pass.  The article and commentary below are both good examples of how we are seeing this occur, if we take the time to step back and look.

Grant Phillips uses a great analogy, in his commentary “Worse and Worse“, of the Fog of Death from the Ten Commandments movie.  You know the one we watched as kids with Charles Heston?  Which in and of itself shows how far we have come; do you think that would ever be produced today by Hollywood?

The Days of Noah was a horrible time, it was described as humankind at its worse of the worst.  Sin, immorality, and hate had completely consumed man (the flesh).

Genesis 6:12-13 – (NKJV)

12 So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.  13 And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

ALL flesh had been corrupted and violence was the norm.  I would say hatred and apathy were also prevalent knowing what usually leads to violence.  Life was not valued at all, it was disposable, pleasure was more important.

What does Paul have to say corrupts our flesh and the church?

1 Corinthians 5 – (NKJV)

Immorality Defiles the Church

5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles—that a man has his father’s wife! And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you. For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

Immorality Must Be Judged

I wrote to you in my epistle not to keep company with sexually immoral people. 10 Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. 11 But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person.

12 For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? 13 But those who are outside God judges. Therefore “put away from yourselves the evil person.”

Does that sound like our current world?

I couldn’t help but think of that when I saw the article below on reactions to Andrew Breibart’s death last night.

Lord come quickly, to remove us from this world!

If you haven’t come to Christ yet, come to him now, time is short.  Read Romans 10:9, profess your belief in him, and ask Him into your heart.

Romans 10:9 – (NIV)

If you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead you will be saved.

‘Burn in HELL!’: Shocking Tweets Celebrate Andrew Breitbart’s Death

When an individual passes away, regardless of his of her ideological positions, one would expect he or she would receive respect. In the case of new media mogul Andrew Breitbart, who died early in the morning on Thursday, there has been a surge of vile commentary spewing across the Twitterverse. From comparisons to Hitler to individuals tweeting that they are content the pundit has passed, the messages are disturbing at best.

Below, The Blaze has assembled some of the most disturbing messages we’ve seen on Twitter over the past few hours:

@darrenfiorello: Andrew Breitbart died? Is it wrong that I’m happier about that than when they got bin Laden and Saddam?

@readjunk: I wonder if the state of Douchery will lower it’s flags at half mast? #AndrewBreitbart

@johnkapp: Andrew Breitbart was a racist, sexist, homophobe. Good riddance.

I am posting this under the just for fun category, even though it has a very serious message and consequences.

I grew up on Star Wars, it was my world. I love Star Wars but this re-edit makes me very sad.

I could not agree more with Bill Whittle.  It is the slippery slope we are on.

By the way – Han did shoot First!

Enjoy!

It is awful what is happening to our brothers and sisters in Christ overseas.  We have no idea the level of persecution they are going through.  I think their faith is amazing, and appears to be strengthened by the persecution.  It has been that way with Christianity through out history, they more it is persecuted, the more and faster it grows.

The post from the Right Scoop was right on, all I can say is Amen, in the name of Jesus!

We need to keep them in our prayers and maybe take our faith a little more seriously.

The Islamic war on Nigeria’s Christians

Posted by The Right Scoop The Right Scoop on February 29th, 2012 in Politics

CBN has produced a great video exposing the Islamic war on Christians by the Islamic group Boko Haram. We just posted on this a few days ago, but this new video better conveys the reality of what’s going on in Nigeria’s North and how the Christians who were born in the North live in fear of even going to church. They are being told they must leave or the bombing will continue.

If Islam was so tolerant and peaceful, wouldn’t the Nigerian government and community rise up and squash Boko Haram and create a safe environment for the Christians to worship, especially considering that Boko Haram has taken credit for the attacks and has made public this war?

I can’t imagine living in this type of fear. Really, what would it be like to know that the single act of going to church could get me killed because a group hated what I believe and wanted to purge people like me from the land? Yet still these Christians insist on praying for their enemies that they would be touched by God.

It’s videos like this that remind me of how unseriously I take my Christian faith at times and why I should be on my knees much more in prayer for them. After all, these are the people Christ was talking about:

“You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs. Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.” – Matthew 24:6-9

“Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” – Matthew 5:11-12

It is amazing what is occurring these days.  Once one opens their eyes, the battle we are in is apparent.  I am not talking out a physical battle or struggle but a spiritual one.  Through a combination of deception, ignorance, and naivety:  we find ourselves in an incredible situation.

How can a group boldly make the threats and statements that this Islamic organization makes without any thought of backlash?  The audacity of their statement is almost beyond belief, but you know what, this world will submit and is submitting one little piece at a time.  It will be interesting to see if any MSM outlets pick up on this. Any bets?

My bet is none will.  It really shows how far gone we are as a nation (world) and the late hour we find ourselves in.  I am not saying the people of our nation are gone,  but we have lost control of the “machine” that controls much of our lives.  Too many are asleep and caught up in this world.  I am glad to see WND will not back down.  They need our support and prayers.

In the end, the question is as Paul stated in Romans 12:1-3.

Romans 12:1-3 – (NKJV)

1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

Are you of this world, conforming to it, or part of Christ’s kingdom and just a visitor?

God Bless!

Islamic group threatens WND

A man who says he represents the United Muslim Nations International organization has warned WND to “moderate” its reporting on issues involving Islam because of how Muslims may react.

The warning came in an email to WND from Faarooq al Mohammedi, who said he was asking on behalf of the Muslim organization that WND “comply as it would be in the companies (sic) best interest as we would not want to take you down the same rout (sic) as we have with other non-complaint media firms.”

The email warned WND to take “extra precaution when publishing religiously sensitive material or in creating religiously sensitive suspicions about peoples (sic) religious beliefs and practices.”

He threatened, “We would appreciate it if you could tighten your screening and moderation processes of articles to be published, any fake material published by WND will be taken as a breach of world news standards, religiously sensitive matters are to be based on solid and undeniable facts, failure to produce proofs of such published articles will give us no option but to bring about the complete removal of WND online as well as from the public in any print media.”

The essence of the warning was that WND needed to project an attitude of dhimmitude, the subservient role demanded of nonbelievers in a Muslim society. Dhimmis “recognize” their inferior status and appropriately serve the master Muslims.

The following two articles/video do a good job laying out what it means to be a “True” Christian.  I put quotes around the true because I have never liked that label, either you are a Christian or you are not, though I understand there needs to be some way to distinguish via text discussions.

The pastor in the video is pretty hard on Franklin Graham as missing the mark.  I do agree with the pastors statements on faith, and I don’t think Franklin Graham went far enough to explain his reasoning and beliefs.  He walked that PC line and tried to remain polite and non-confrontational.  I think that was more out of shock of being ambushed as he was there to talk about his ministry in Africa and also out of politeness and not wanting to escalate the debate.  I do begrudge him for that.

That being said, I think we do need to get more bold in our statements on Christ, God’s Word, and our beliefs.  Time is short.  You can see that I think if you compare this year to 10 years ago, faith is a lot more front and center as a controversial issue, even with a year ago, you can see the escalation.

The second article does a great job laying out what we do know about Obama’s faith choices with his own words and writings.  It lays out the facts about the church he chose and what “journey” he has taken that shaped him for the last 10+ years.  It is a pretty stunning contrast to Christianity as we know it and well done.  Take sometime to read through it yourself.

God Bless!

Pastor’s take on Obama and Christianity

——————–

Is Obama really a true Christian?

Rev. Franklin Graham last week revealed that President Obama confided to him and his father during a recent visit to North Carolina: “I don’t go to church.”

Publicly, Obama insists he’s a practicing Christian.

“I have no idea what he really believes,” Graham said during an appearance on MSNBC.

It’s a deepening mystery. Pundits on both the left and right question the president’s faith. The growing debate marks a turning point in American politics, where discussing the personal religious beliefs of an elected official or candidate is taboo.

Bill Maher, host of HBO’s “Real Time,” doubts Obama is a practicing Christian.

“I just don’t believe it,” he said recently.

Maher suspects the president is an atheist.

GOP presidential contender Rick Santorum says Obama follows a “phony theology” not based on the Bible and preached by radicals.

Todd had a great commentary this week.  It is part of the ongoing up is down, evil is good phenomenon that we are experiencing.

It just amazes me how extreme the contrast is between Christianity and Islam.  It plays out every time the same way and yet this world gives Islam a pass and says it’s the Christians or Jews that provoke them.

The real bad guy is this “1984” world are the “Christians” that burned the Korans (accidentally).  The Muslims that rioted and killed dozens of people, they were justified.

Let that sink in a minute.

They killed people over the accidental burning of a book!  And they are justified?

Todd’s comment of “shouldn’t they be at the Syrian embassy”,  I think speaks volumes for the religion.  They value a book (not the message in the book, but the book itself, more than human life.

It truly is the opposite of Christianity.

Muslims Gone Wild

A series of riots has swept over the nation of Afghanistan. Thousands of enraged Afghans have taken to the streets to vent their outrage after U.S. soldiers inadvertently set fire to copies of the Koran when clearing out a library of old books.

More than thirty people have been killed since the unrest began, including four U.S. soldiers. A group of demonstrators tried to attack the U.S. consulate in the city of Herat, setting police vehicles on fire.

We’ve been down this road before. Last year, at least twenty-four people died in protests across Afghanistan after Rev. Terry Jones threatened to burn a Koran outside his Florida church. In 2005, there were violent disturbances over claims of the Koran being mishandled, but those allegations turned out to be false.

Top American officials in Kabul are apologizing profusely for the incident. President Barack Obama has sent a letter to Afghan President Hamid Karzai apologizing for the Koran burning.

“I wish to express my deep regret for the reported incident,” Mr. Obama wrote in the letter. “I extend to you and the Afghan people my sincere apologies.”

I am just dumbfounded over the idiocy of this situation. It should be obvious that there was no malice on our part. It’s insane to have the president of the U.S. groveling before people who are incapable of understanding the kindness we gave them. Before the American invasion, the Taliban brutalized the nation. We spend over a trillion dollars on this rat hole, and when we leave in 2014, the Taliban will probably be voted back into power.

Great message this week from pastor JD.

He also brought up Franklin Graham’s interview and I couldn’t agree with him more. (12:38 min mark)

He also mentioned a follow-up on the interview where Chris Matthews calls for Blacklist of Franklin Graham.  It appeared in Real Clear Politics on Thurs. 2/23.  I think it just adds to the magnitude of the interview as an example of what is occurring in this world.  We are living Bible Prophecy!

Another quote that jumped out at me from Pastor JD:

“You can have this world after we are gone.  You will only have it for seven years though.”

He also brought up a lot of other great prophecy events we are seeing unfold in the headlines.

He ended with quoting Philippians 2:9-12.

Philippians 2:9-12 – (NKJV)

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.  12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

The last line does a good job summing up what the interviewers and much of this world lack.

They have no fear of God.

Terry lays out in this weeks Nearing Midnight article something I have been feeling as well.  It is strange how what he wrote is almost exactly the conversation my wife and I had late last night.

There is just a feeling of something big looming, accompanied by a sense of anxiousness.  The looming thing/event is also preceded by a feeling of a blanket of evil that is enveloping this world.  Everywhere you turn, it feels like evil is wrapping its tentacles throughout every inch of our public lives and in some cases appears to be winning the battle.

Worst yet, those of this world seem to be supporting it and promoting it.  To them what should be wrong is right.  I call it the “1984” effect.  What’s up is down and whats good is evil, 2+2=5.

I don’t know how anyone that has their eyes open, could not see we are living in the end times.  The signs are so vivid and numerous.

The part of Terry’s commentary that really struck a chord with me was the last 4-5 paragraphs.

He talks about the restrainer and how it will be removed in the last days.  Paul addresses it in 2 Thessalonians 2:7-10.

2 Thessalonians 2:7-10 – (NKJV)

For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He[a] who now restrains will do so until He[b] is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

Then he posed the questions that really hit home for me:

” How can God be ‘taken out of the way’ so evil and Antichrist can take over for a time?”

God promised us that once sealed with the Holy Spirit that it could not be removed from us.  So if the Holy Spirit has to be removed, then so do we (the church).

The church must be raptured as Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 and 5:1-11.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 – (NKJV)

16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-11 – (NKJV) – The Day of the Lord

5 But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation. For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

11 Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

Yet another proof point on the Rapture of the church and a message of joy in this time of anxiousness.  Could that anxiousness really be the Holy Spirit prodding us, preparing us, to look up for our redemption draws near?

It’s almost time to go home!!!

Rapture Ready – Nearing Midnight Commentary 2/27/12

Restraining Sudden Destruction

There is a sense among many at this moment in history that impending disaster presses against the fabric of life on planet earth from every side. This is not mere paranoia pushing against the collective anxiety-ridden psyche of a world uncertain about its future. The threat is real, and it is in Bible prophecy. A quick scan of issues, events, and anticipated actions testify to the reality of the threat and validates the angst.

Israel is ground zero for much of the fear pressing upon a world full of dread. The Jewish state is considered the trigger point for possible nuclear conflict in the Middle East–conflict that is sure to spread globally once unleashed. Iran is the antagonist that is the cause of the most immediate threat to regional and world peace–although the world diplomatic community seems intent on making Israel responsible for keeping war from erupting. This is the way it is, despite the fact that the Iranian regime’s leaders threaten to wipe Israel off the map.

I have watched this interview about 20-30 times now and just can’t seem to get it out of my head.  It has bothered me on multiple levels.

I think Reverend Graham did a great job.  He stayed true to God’s Word & message and was amazingly calm, I am sure he would tell you the Holy Spirit helped.

What bothered me was the tenacity at which the interviewers came after him.  It was obvious they did not know God.  They did not understand the concept of knowing a man’s heart through his fruit.  They missed the point of the difference between a “good person” and a christian.

The mocking tone was also almost defining, you could feel the contempt in their voice and body language.  They could not contain it.  It reminded me of Jude where he spoke of the mockers we would experience in the last days.

Jude 1:17-19 – (NKJV)

17 But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: 18 how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. 19 These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.

But what really hit it home for me was how they completely dismissed all of the “fruit” that Reverence Graham laid out for them.  Let’s list them. Some he stated and others that have come up recently.

1. Obama’s stance and support on abortion.

2. His stance and lack of support for Israel.

3. His stance and lack of support for the Christians being killed overseas.

4. On the opposite side, the total pass he gives to Muslim efforts / groups.

5. His support of Gay Rights regarding marriage and protected class status/hate speech.

6. His stance on contraceptives within Obama Care.

7. The complete removal of God from everywhere in our public society on his watch.

8. How he has had covered any Christian symbols when giving speeches.

9. How he has omitted God / Creator when quoting historical documents from our founding. (multiple times)

I am sure there are more, but do the above seem at all to point to a Christian?  Even if you only believe in 2-3 of them would it be enough to have some questions?

It is true that only God knows a man’s heart and can know if he is saved (born again) but he taught us about the “fruits” so we could have some reference point to discern.  It is obvious that the interviewers did not get that.

You could tell the frustration in their voices as they pushed the question over and over.  “Why can’t we get ‘America’ to admit that Obama is a Christian?”  It is because Americans have doubts because of his actions, his “fruits”.  It is what James meant by “without works”.  Once you are born-again you can’t help but further God’s Kingdom out of sheer gratitude of the gift of salvation.

Prophetic signs are accelerating, there are so many to try and keep up with that I have felt very overwhelmed and a bit schizophrenic recently.  After much prayer, I have decided to not try and keep up with all of them as I have in the past but try to pick the clearest one or two and present it here for you.

The one that stood out this morning to me was the warning that Iran’s spiritual leader gave this week.  It was eerie to hear these words and not see it echoed in our media.  Many will have no idea of what Iran is telling their people and their Muslim allies.  The first quote that jumped out at me was as follows:

Khamenei then claimed the current century as the century of Islam and promised that human history is on the verge of a great event and that soon the world will realize the power of Allah.

We have heard similar things before from Iran’s leaders, but this time around there was a immediacy to all of their statements.  (more…)

Revelation 17:14  “These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”

One of the ways satan has tried to confuse and deter Christians from solidifying their beliefs is by making prophecy seem scary or confusing.  I am going to address the latter today, and hopefully the first in the coming days. 

(Why does the word Revelation = Scary?  Is that what you thought when you read the first word of this post?)

The Lord led me to an article by Mike Taylor from a while back.  It really lays out the comparison well between two of the most popular beliefs. 

Having studied the different views on end time timelines, there is one that rose above the others, premillennial.  What make it stand out to me is that you really did not have to suspend believe for the pieces to fit together.  And more importantly, there were not any pieces left on the table as “not fitting” the theory you have assembled.

I believe that the bible is 100% correct and the infallible word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit.  God would not layout prophecy that contradicted itself, it all fits together.  You just need to continue to pray, study and dig deeply untill they all fit.  In all my years of (more…)
