The Apparitions of Mary

The Catholic church hold the apparitions of Mary in high regard. I strongly believe these Marion apparitions are demonic manifestations. They have been contrary to the Word of God and may be part of the end times deception.

The devil can appear as an angel of light. 2 Corinthians 11:14, And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.

Multiple religions were started when someone had a vision from an angel who disclosed to them "new revelations". I don't believe these visions were a figment of their imaginations. I believe they were real and powerful. Satan is real and want's to lead people astray into false doctrines.

I believe manifestations will increase in number as we get closer to the tribulation. Because many people believe miracles are from God, they don't question the source of those miracles. Miracles can be very convincing to get someone to follow a false teaching. People are convinced the apparitions of Mary are from God, because healing miracles are occur.

I believe the devil will make it look like there was a resurrection of the antichrist. This will cause many to believe this man is from God, when in fact he is from Satan. Revelation 13:12, And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

People are seeking healings from Mary and the saints, when you should only be seeking these things from God. People are praying to her instead of God. When you pray to Mary you are giving her God-like qualities and that is idolatry. She can not hear anyone's prayers because she is not Omni-present. The devil wants continue to cause people to seek after someone other than God, and he is using Mary. 

2 Thessalonians 2:9-12, The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason, God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie.

As we can see miracles are not just performed by God. Here are other examples in the Bible where the devil taps into the supernatural.

• Exodus 8:7, Pharaoh’s wise men preformed a lot of the same signs Moses and Aaron were able to do through God. They called up Frogs.
• Exodus 7:21-22, the wise men turned water into blood.
• Exodus 7:11-12, Aaron threw his staff down and it turned into a snake. Pharaoh’s men threw down their staffs and they turned into snakes. Aaron’s snake swallowed up the wise men’s snakes. Satan will imitate God and his miracles but Jesus is always more powerful.
• Matthew 7:22, people who don’t know the Lord can prophecy, cast out demons and perform miracles.
• Matthew 24:24, false Christs and prophets can perform great signs and wonders that even believers could possibly fall for.
• Revelation 13:13-14, The False prophet will make fire come down from heaven. He will deceive those who dwell on the earth by signs.
• Revelation 13:2-4, the devil has a throne, power and great authority, and he uses it.
• Revelation 16:14, the Bible says demon spirits perform signs.

Mary from the apparitions is telling people to make an alter to her and says she is coming back. The real Mary always pointed to Jesus, never to herself.  Don’t follow these!

I highly recommend the book Messages from Heaven by Jim Tetlow. He discusses the messages given by Mary in the apparitions, and how they do not align with the Bible.

UFO's, Aliens, Apparitions of Mary, a connection to the demonic?

UFO's and Aliens

We have been hearing a lot of news about UFO’s lately.  I personally believe UFO’s and aliens are demonic manifestations.  Demons can take on the appearance of many different beings.  I believe it is highly possible that they can take on the form of aliens.  The Bible speaks about a great delusion and deceptions that will occur in the last days. UFO’s and aliens may be one of the things Satan uses to deceive the nations.  It may be what the devil uses to explain away the rapture. They could say many were abducted by aliens.  The Bible does not say what the strong delusion is but here are my reasons on why I think fallen angels (demons) may take on the form of aliens in the last days.

• Angels are able to transform themselves and appear like regular men (Heb 13:2, Gen 6 & 19).  
• Fallen angels (demons) can transform themselves into angels of light (2 Corinthians 11:14-15).  
• Fallen angels can appear as frogs (Revelation 16:13).  
• It is not clear but some scholars believe the locusts coming out of the abyss in Rev 9 are demons.
• The devil can take on the form of a serpent (Genesis 3 & Revelation 20:2 & 12:9).  

I am not alone in the belief that an alien deception may play apart in the end times.  There are a number of ministries that are thinking the same thing.  No one knows for sure what the strong delusion the Bible speaks of may be, but many are very suspicious that UFO's and aliens may play a part of the delusion. 

Luke 21:11,... and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.  

2 Thessalonians 2:11, The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.  There for God sends them a strong delusion...  

Nephilim

Jesus says it will be like the days of Noah in the end times (Matthew 24:37).  What happened in the days of Noah?  Fallen angels took on the form of a man and came down on the earth.  They interacted with mankind and in their human form the demons had children with women on the earth.  They produced a bread of giants on the earth called Nephilim.  Goliath from the story David and Goliath was one of those Nephilim.  Nathan Jones from the ministry Christ in Prophecy also believes UFO's and aliens could be apart of the end times deception. Click HERE for a video of  him talking with another pastor about the Nephilim.  They don't talk about UFO's but only the Nephilim in this video.  

This is all speculation because the Bible is not specific on what the strong delusion is or what the great signs from heaven are.  I think UFO's and aliens are a definite possibility for a strong delusion that could lead many away from God.

Apparitions of Mary

The Catholic church hold the apparitions of Mary in high regard.  I strongly believe these Marion apparitions are demonic manifestations. The words the apparition spoke on many occasions have been contrary to the Word of God, and could very well be apart of the end times deception. 

The devil can appear as an angel of light, in much the same way these apparitions of Mary have been seen.  2 Corinthians 11:14, And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Multiple religions were started when someone had a vision from an angel who disclosed to them new revelations.  I don't believe these visions were a figment of their imaginations.  I believe they were real and powerful.  Satan is real and want's to lead people astray into false doctrines. 

The Mary from the apparitions will lead you astray into a false gospel.  The real Mary is not Omni-present and can't hear your prayers.  She always pointed to Jesus and never herself.  Don’t follow these!  

This is a book I highly recommend.  Messages from Heaven by Jim Tetlow.  It tests the messages from different apparitions of Mary in the light of scripture.  Click HERE for a PDF version of the book.

Climate Change

Noah’s flood was not due to climate change it was due to sin on the earth. Ask Adam and Eve how their environment changed after they sinned. The sun will scorch the earth in the tribulation but it’s because people refuse to repent of their sins.  Here is a list of Bible verses that talk about the correlation between sin and the environment.

Revelation 16:8-9, The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire. They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent and glorify him

Deuteronomy11:16-17, Take care lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them; then the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you, and he will shut up the heavens, so that there will be no rain, and the land will yield no fruit, and you will perish quickly off the good land that the LORD is giving you.

Amos 4:6-9, “I gave you empty stomachs in every city and lack of bread in every town, yet you have not returned to me,” declares the Lord. 7“I also withheld rain from you when the harvest was still three months away. I sent rain on one town, but withheld it from another. One field had rain; another had none and dried up.  People staggered from town to town for water but did not get enough to drink, yet you have not returned to me,” declares the Lord. 9“Many times I struck your gardens and vineyards, destroying them with blight and mildew. Locusts devoured your fig and olive trees, yet you have not returned to me,”

Hosea 4:1-3, Hear the word of the LORD, O children of Israel, for the LORD has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land. There is no faithfulness or steadfast love, and no knowledge of God in the land; 2there is swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed. Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it languish, and also the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens, and even the fish of the sea are taken away.

2 Chronicles 7:14, if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Nahum 1:3-5, The Lord is slow to anger but great in power; the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished. His way is in the whirlwind and the storm, and clouds are the dust of his feet. He rebukes the sea and dries it up; he makes all the rivers run dry. Bashan and Carmel wither and the blossoms of Lebanon fade. 5The mountains quake before him and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, the world and all who live in it.

Genesis 8:22, "As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease."

Here is a response I got from Patricia C. on this post that I wanted to share with everyone.

Thanks for this post. I did a self study on this subject a couple of months ago and started collecting verses. If you don't mind I'll share them with you. 

Ecology/Environment/Sin impacts ALL LIVING things. Sin harms and changes no only ourselves but the land, the animals, the birds and the fish. 

Genesis 3:17-19 Ground is cursed because of Adam’s sin resulting in thorns and thistles 

Genesis 4:8-12 Cain is cursed after he kills Abel and the blood stained ground cries out to God, and for Cain the ground will no longer yield its crops. 

Deuteronomy 11:8-17 Land bounty is conditional on their obedience to God or He will shut up the heavens so that it will not rain and the ground will yield no produce, and you will soon perish from the good land. 

Deuteronomy 21:22-23 Cursed is the man hanged on a tree, Do not defile the land 

Deuteronomy 24:4 Divorce and land 

Deuteronomy 29:23, 27 Nothing growing because Israel broke their covenant 

Deuteronomy 30:19 Heaven and earth called as witnesses 

Deuteronomy 31:28 heavens and the earth to testify against them 

Numbers 35:33-34 Spilling of blood of another human pollutes the land

Leviticus 25:2 Land shall keep a Sabbath to the Lord 

Leviticus 26:34 & 43 Then the land shall enjoy its Sabbaths all the days it lies desolate, while you are in the land of your enemies. At that time the land will rest and enjoy its Sabbaths. 35As long as it lies desolate, the land will have the rest it did not receive during the Sabbaths when you lived in it. 43For the land will be abandoned by them, and it will enjoy its Sabbaths by lying desolate without them. And they will pay the penalty for their iniquity, because they rejected My ordinances and abhorred My statutes. 

Leviticus 27:30 Thus any tithe from the land, whether from the seed of the land or the fruit of the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD. 

I Kings 8:35 "When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain because your people have sinned against you, and when they pray toward this place and give praise to your name and turn from their sin because you have afflicted them, 

Hosea 4:1-3 Hear the word of the LORD, O children of Israel, for the LORD has a case against the people of the land: “There is no truth, no loving devotion, and no knowledge of God in the land! 2 Cursing and lying, murder and stealing, and adultery are rampant; one act of bloodshed follows another. 3 Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea disappear.

Romans 8:18-23 the whole creation has been groaning.  All creation was designed to worship God! He designed it with one thing in mind: Worship. All creation was designed to worship and agonizes when it cannot fulfill its purpose. 

Isaiah 55:12 You will indeed go out with joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.13Instead of the thornbush, a cypress will grow, and instead of the brier, a myrtle will spring up; they will make a name for the LORD, an everlasting sign, never to be destroyed.” 

Isaiah 44:23 Sing for joy, you heavens, for the LORD has done this; shout aloud, you earth beneath. Burst into song, you mountains, you forests and all your trees, for the LORD has redeemed Jacob, he displays his glory in Israel. 

Psalm 96:11-12 11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and all it contains; 12Let the field exult, and all that is in it. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy 

1 Chronicles 16:32-33 Let the sea roar, and all it contains; Let the field exult, and all that is in it. 33Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD; For He is coming to judge the earth. 

Jeremiah 23:10 The land is full of adulterers; because of the curse the land lies parched and the pastures in the wilderness are withered. The prophets follow an evil course and use their power unjustly.

Isaiah 24:5-6 The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant. 6Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held guilty. Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left.

God Loves Israel!

The Church has not replaced Israel. When Christians dismiss the Jewish people or treat them badly, they are not in-line with God’s will.   Here is what the Bible says about Israel.

1. Israel is God’s treasured possession.  Deuteronomy 7:6 & Psalm 135:4
2. Israel is the apple of God’s eye.   Psalm 17:8
3. If we bless the Jewish people God will bless us. If we curse them, God will curse us.  Genesis 12:3
4. If you Love Israel, you will prosper.   Psalm 122:6
5. Our savior Jesus is Jewish.  Hebrews 7:14
6. We owe our salvation to the Jewish people and the disciples who died to bring us the Gospel.  Romans 8:36 & John 4:22
7. Israel is the wife of Father God.  Jeremiah 3:14 & Isaiah 54:5

• Israel was unfaithful.  Jeremiah 3:20
• She broke her marriage covenant by her adultery (Idolatry).  Jeremiah 31:32 & Ezekiel 23:37
• An affair is grounds for divorce.  Matthew 19:9
• God divorced Israel.  Jeremiah 3:8
• God still loves Israel very much.  Hosea 3:1
• God will protect Israel.  Ezekiel 38:19-22
• God will take care of Israel.  Revelation 12:6
• God is perusing Israel and she will eventually repent and return to him in the last days.  Hosea 3:5  

* Always minister salvation to those that are Jewish.  Salvation comes through faith in Jesus alone.  Many will die without Jesus and be eternally separated from God until they repent and give their hearts and lives to their Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus). 

God gave Israel land as an everlasting possession.  When someone tries uproot them or kick them out of the land God gave them, you will enter into God’s judgement.  

Joel 3:2, I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will enter into judgment with them there, on behalf of my people and my heritage Israel, because they have scattered them among the nations and have divided up my land. 

When you try to make Israel give up some land for peace, you will be judged by God.  We can see some of the judgments that have come upon America when we try and divide up the land of Israel.  This is a short video about some of the consequences America has faced for even trying to divide the land of Israel.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQBp3qb7XlM

If you are in a church teaching replacement theology or supporting the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) you are cursing Israel and will be under a curse from God per Genesis 12:3.  That church that does not have the heart of God and is without the leading of the Holy Spirit.

The church is the bride of Christ (2 Corinthians 11:2) and the Jewish people are the wife of Father God (Jeremiah 3:14).  If you don’t like Israel then, you don’t like God’s wife.

Are You Scared?

Psalm 91 is a great verse to read over and over when you get scared about Covid-19 or for any other reason.  God did not send this virus.  This is the work of the devil.  We can find protection with God.  God is not out to get you.  He wants you to live and he wants you to glorify his name and dying from Coronavirus or being bedridden from another illness does not glorify him.  

Jesus is speaking about the works for the devil.
John 10:10, The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

When fear comes just remember this Psalm and say it over and over again.  

Psalm 118:17, I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD.

Here is a link to Psalm 91.  Read this before you walk into a store, go to work or go to school.

Does Your Heart Belong to Jesus or The World?

I pulled this from the Lamplighter Magazine.  

http://www.lamblion.com/xfiles/publications/magazines/Lamplighter_JulAug20_Pandemic-Liberty.pdf

 

In three short months, just like He did with the plagues of Egypt,

God has taken away everything we worship.

 

·         You want to worship athletes; I will shut down stadiums and arenas.

·         You want to worship musicians; I will shut down every venue.

·         You want to worship actors; I will shut down theaters.

·         You want to worship money; I will shut down the economy and collapse the stock market.

·         You want to worship your own bodies; I’ll close down the gyms.

·         You want to worship your own intellect and pat yourself on the back with a graduation, I’ll close down your schools.

·         You want to place your trust in your friends and not in Me; I’ll make sure you can’t even meet with them physically.

·         You don’t want to seek My face and worship Me; I will make it where you can’t go to church.

 

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14).

 

Maybe we don’t need a vaccine. Maybe we just need to take this time of isolation from the distractions of the world and have a personal revival where we focus on the ONLY thing in the world that really matters - JESUS!

My Commentary:

It may sound like God is mean when he takes away his protection and blessings, but he told you in his word he is jealous for you.  If your child did not want to spend any time with you because he or she wanted to play video games all day or spend all their time with their friends it would hurt your feelings.  If your spouse worked long hours and then ignored you when he/she got home you would feel hurt.  God has feelings and he feels hurt when the one he loves ignores him.  Your child can grow up and never talk to you again.  Your spouse can leave you and they both have the free will to do that.  When they walk away from you they walk away from everything you have to offer them such as a loving home, comfort, someone to laugh with, someone to cry with, maybe they walk away from provision, protection, and many other things.  When you walk away from God you will also walk away from all of the things he provides.  You will be on your own.  This is God’s wake up call.  He is giving you a glimpse of what life will be like without his protection and his blessings. He wants you to make an informed decision.  

The moment you die you can’t change your mind.  You will be with God or without God for all eternity and he does not want to be separated from you.  This is why Jesus came to die a horrible painful death so you could be with him forever.  That is True Love!

The Only Thing You Can Take To Heaven

The only thing you can take to heaven with you are people!  Souls are so very valuable to God.  If your child was in a car accident and someone saved their life how would you feel?  God is even more grateful to those who save souls from being eternally separated from him.  Matthew 5:12.  

Those that may be your enemy now, could be your best friend in heaven.  I know it can be hard to bring the love of Jesus to someone who is mean.  My son stood up to a bully who was hurting his friend and the bully ended up becoming friends with them.  I have heard this type of story multiple times.  Mean people can be scary but they are just people who have been hurt and are in need of love.  Hurting people will hurt people.  I am sure you can relate to having a bad day and in your week moments have taken things out on others.  What if someone had a bad life?    

I know people will hurt you and they will do it on purpose just like you have been mean to others in word or deed.  It does not matter if they are meaner more often.  God commands us to forgive (Mark 11:25) and to walk in love.  Luke 6:35, But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.  Proverbs 25: 21-22, If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.  In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the Lord will reward you. When you are nice to someone who is mean they will know they don't deserve it and will feel guilty.  God will use that to convict their heart.  

My Mom felt like God spoke these words to her when she was praying about a situation where someone was consistently being mean.  God gave her these words to say to the mean person.  You must have been really hurt, to be so hurtful to others.  This is a kind way of getting them to realize that their actions are hurtful.

When an unloved person who is acting out, learns that they were created by God because he wanted them and that Jesus died on the cross so they could be together for all eternity, everything will change!  Ezekiel 36:26, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.  If everyone walked in love and spread the Gospel of salvation to hurting people, we would be living in a different world.  A world where love is known. 

So make sure you preach the love of Jesus to all your future best friends who are having a bad day/life.  Don't leave out the important message of repentance once they embrace their Savior.

Why are their so many mass shootings?

God is love and when less and less people are filled with the Holy Spirit they are not abiding in love. They may love their family but they are not walking in the Spirit of Love. 

Romans 8:5-6, Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.

Galatians 5:19-23, The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. 

The unsaved are vulnerable to demonic possession and since the unsaved are increasing in number so are the mass shootings!  Not everyone who is unsaved is possessed, but I believe those who are responsible for the mass shootings are demon possessed! 

This is a quote from Ann Graham Lotz.  I believe she was speaking about hurricane Katrina.  "I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives.  And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out.  How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand he leave us alone?" 

If we want God to protect us we need to trust in Him and make Jesus our Lord and Savior!

If we want mass shootings to stop we need to preach the Gospel to the unsaved!  

Why are People so Divided?

Jesus gave a parable of the Wheat and Tares. Tares are weeds. Some Bible translations say tares and others say weeds.  Tares when they grow look just like wheat but right before the harvest when the wheat starts to bear fruit, the tares don't produce anything. When the wheat and the tares grow together their roots become intertwined and if you pull up the tares it will uproot the wheat.

Matthew 13
24He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, 25but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. 26So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also. 27And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds?’ 28He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?’ 29But he said, ‘No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. 30Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.

As Jesus says in John 8:44 some of us have God as our Father and some in the world have the devil as their father. Those of us that serve God produce the fruit of the spirit. Galatians 5:22. As time gets close to the harvest (rapture & second coming) we start to see the difference in people. The false Christians and the unsaved are making themselves known in mass numbers. When you watch the news and see the world so increasingly divided it is because the harvest is nearing. We can see more clearly the good crop and the weeds as the harvest is fully maturing.  Take joy in knowing that soon, God will gather us in the harvest. Maranatha!

Royal Wedding

In honor of the royal wedding of Megan and Harry here is my marriage and life advice.

Forgive, even though they don’t deserve it.

Love, in spite of not always feeling loved.

Keep God close, so his forgiveness and love for you, will overflow in your life. 

God will help you do what naturally you cannot do.  You are betrothed to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, if you have accepted his proposal, love him with all your heart and are willing to commit your life to our Lord and King Jesus.  Your wedding (rapture) will be more grand than the earthly royal wedding.

Read my article Royal Family for more royal insights.  God Bless!

Flood Lights

Lord, let our desires not to be, a small little light in the darkness, but floodlights that make the night look like it's daytime.  Have you ever been out on a football field at night when they had floodlights?  It makes the place seem like it is daytime ,when really it is night.  Together we can shine brighter.  Let us be floodlights for you Lord, and let the outpouring of the Holy Spirit fall upon us in a mighty way.    Maranatha!

Quote

December 24th 2017 Tweet from former atheist & author of The Case for Christ, Lee Strobel.

"To continue in atheism, I would need to believe that nothing produces everything, non-life produces life, randomness produces fine-tuning, chaos produces information, unconsciousness produces consciousness and non-reason produces reason," he wrote. "I simply didn't have that much faith."

Question for you

If you were arrested and charged with being a Christian.  Would the court have enough evidence to convict you?

“Silence in the face of evil is in itself evil. God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”

- Dietrich Bonhoeffer -

The Christian silence is deafening.  39 million Christians did not vote in the last presidential election.  The current president won the election by 5 million votes.  Christians need to stand up and vote or we will forfeit our religious freedoms.  This election is too important to sit back and remain silent because we don’t like our choices.  When we kick God out of everything we get Godless candidates.  There is one candidate who will fight for our freedoms and another who wants to take them away.  We will never find the perfect person until Jesus returns but until He does we need to elect the one who will make the better decisions.  The hour is late, the workers are few & the harvest is plentiful.  Matthew 9:37.  We can't loose the tools we need to bring in the harvest.  This is an excellent video about the election and what we should do as Christians. It's well worth watching!!

Happy Rosh Hashanah Y'all!  Check out the links I have at the bottom of the page on the pre-tribulation rapture tab to see the possible Rosh Hashanah connection.  We don't know when the rapture will occur but the Lord has given us road signs and we can see we are close.  Don't wait until after the rapture when you will no longer be able to escape the horrible things that are coming to seek out the Lord Jesus.  Now, is the hour of salvation!  There is nothing he can't forgive.  If you are not sure he is real ask Him to reveal himself to you.  If you seek answers with a pure heart he will not hide Himself from you.  He longs for a relationship with you!  He does not think you are weird or stupid.  He finds you adorable!  All the lies people have told you are from the devil. He died a horrible death just so he could spend eternity with YOU!  Has any human ever loved you that much?  God is Love!  God loves you!  God created you because he wanted you with him forever!
