Wake Up

21 Oct 2020
Off

It’s time for the Church to wake up, open up, there is something more serious than the Virus. When I read the headlines, I couldn’t help but ask with the Psalmist 94:3 “Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph? I believe he answers this in V.13 “…until the pit be digged for the wicked.”

When I read behind Bill Wilson, “Daily Jot”. it made me sick to think we have fallen to such a level. “Giuliani says Hunter Biden’s laptop has video of Hunter using Cocaine and having sex with Chinese Children.” He went on to say “Biden’s corruption and that he is a compromised candidate that Nations hold huge blackmail leverage over his head. He said America’s national security is at stake.”

I believe God raised up Donald Trump to expose such evil going on in Washington DC. This should be a wake up call to the church, to go out quickly into the hedges and highways, and compel the lost, and lukewarm, to get right with God and one another. If you ain’t awake by now, to see how corrupt as a nation we have become, and praying for God to save any lost loved ones, you could be one of the five foolish virgins, to be left outside the door. This is no time to be neutral, but to choose what master you will serve.

This is the most important election in my life time. With such evil going on, I believe a large earthquake is coming very soon. I am so thankful we have a President, that said tonight in his speech “we need help from the boss and then pointed up” This is our only hope for this nation, and that is divine intervention. Let it be so Lord. Maranatha!!!

The Headlines Read, “Historic Peace Ceremony”!!!

16 Sep 2020

If my precious friend J.D. Collins were stilling living, he would be beside himself. I believe we are witnessing what will lead to the signing with the Palestine’s. Now for those that may not know what this means, it means before this can happen, those of the blood bought Church, who are without spot and wrinkle, will be caught up to meet their lovely Redeemer in the air, to ever be with the Lord.

It’s interesting, that it’s been 35 years since anything has occurred in this magnitude. In Bible numerics, 35 means “hope” and with that being said, two things stand out. The first, is before the peace agreement is signed, what the writer of Hebrews and Titus said, we are now looking for that blessed hope, it will have become a reality, the Rapture of the church. The second thing that stands out, is found in 2 Thess.5:3 “For when they shall say, Peace and safety: then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

Thank God my hope is in Jesus, who has clothed me with the garments of salvation, and the robe of righteousness, and as far as I know, the Blood has cleansed every spot and blemish, and the wrinkles have been ironed with my testimony today. This is no time to see how close you live on the edge. It’s time to “lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run this race with patience the race (endurance) that is set before us” Heb.12:1-2. Looking unto Jesus. the Author and Finisher of our faith…” Maranatha!!!!

A foretaste of the vials in the last half of tribulation

A foretaste of the vials in the last half of tribulation. Headlines read, “California wildfires: Extreme heat turns state into a furnace” “Hot in the Holy City: Jerusalem breaks 120-year record.” If you recall there were 11,000 lightning strikes that started the fires, and it has burned up to 2 million acres.

Now consider Rev.16:8-9 “And the fourth angel poured out his vile upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorned (burned) with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.”

I believe God is sending a message loud and clear, like he did to Pharaoh to let his people go, but Pharaoh’s kept hardening his heart. It seems this governor has the same spirit of Pharaoh, in that he has shut the churches down, and God has sent one disaster after another, and he keeps on passing more pervert laws, now making it a lesser sentence for pedophiles to have sex with under age children.

Anyone who thinks, that things are going to be normal again are in for a rude awaking. These perverted leaders know that true Christians, who believe in the literal interpretation of the Bible, stand in the way of their evil agenda. They think that they have the upper hand, and have us, about knocked out in the 9th round. Oh, but what they don’t know is, as it was in Egypt, God has one last plague left, and he will take us out of here, like Elijah, but in our glorified body.

Elijah is a type of the rapture, and that God is sending plagues now as he did upon Egypt. Oh and by the way, if you don’t have the blood applied to the door post of your heart, and over the lentil of your mind, I wouldn’t go to bed tonight without crying out to God to have mercy upon me a sinner. If I were a professing Christian, who is bored with spiritual things, and don’t have any desire to read God’s Word, pray and gather with the saints, I’d ask God to forgive me, of my apathy, lethargy and lack of commitment.

Remember the 10 virgins, there were five wise and five foolish, and only those that were ready went into the marriage. Which one are you? Maranatha!!!!!

They have eyes, but can’t see, and ears but they hear not.

Is God about to smite them with blindness again? Gen.19:11) They have eyes, but can’t see, and ears but they hear not.

“About 11,000 (11 means judgement in Bible numerics? lighting bolts strike California, igniting hundreds of fires in a state facing multiple crises. Death Valley hits 130 degrees, thought to be the highest temperature on earth in nearly a century. Now, with all that going on “Pasadena threatens church members with 1 year of jail for attending indoor worship services. As my good friend Bro. Shimdt said “they’re dumb as a red brick.” Sadly, they can’t see that the only true and loving God gets no pleasure out of the death of the wicked, and is trying to show them and all America, Psa.9:17 that “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” The fact is today, they are without excuse. It’s true God use to wick at ignorance, because they had not all the full revelation of God, but under grace Luke 13:3,5 he says “Nay: but except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish.” God has been so longsuffering in this nation. He has allowed them to murder over 60 million babies throwing there little bodies in a dumpster without a proper burial and sell their body parts. He has allowed them to return to the perverted lifestyle of Noah and Lot’s day, Rom.1:26-27 “vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their own lust one towards another, men with men working that which is unseemly (indecent).”

Yes God has allowed it. You might ask why, so that this generation, Rom.1:20 will not be “without excuse.” In Noah’s day, vs.21 “they knew God, (but) they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain (wicked) in their imagination, and their foolish heart was darkened.” Now there is a positive note!!! The angels pulled Lot back into the house. The Lord Jesus compares our day to Lot’s day. When He comes for His bride, who have kept themselves unspotted from the world, James 1:27 we will not be pulled out of a city but put into the eternal city He has gone to prepare, for His bride. Now we have a choice like Lot’s Sons-in-law, who mocked him for telling them to get out of the city because God was going to destroy it or we can take God at His Word and get out of the world, and get into the ark (Jesus Christ, and then put to death the works of the flesh (Col.3:5, 1Cor.6:9-11, Gal.5:19-21 and walk in the spirit). He is going to shut the door Matt.25:10 and those that are ready will go into the marriage.

The choice is ours, to be lukewarm and be spewed out,(Rev.3:16) or like the five foolish virgins and be locked outside the door at the Rapture. (Matt.25:10)

Now, for those who don’t believe in the blessed hope, the promised Rapture (Luke 21:34-36, 1Thess.4:13-18, 5:9 there are many more to scriptures to comfort his bride), you don’t mind if I translate while you tribulate. Heb.3:19 Unbelief kept Israel out of the promised land and I believe it will keep you and me out of the Rapture if we fail to believe in all that God has said. Heb.9:28, Rev.3:10-11 Maranatha!!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to visit our church website. If you do not have a home church, I invite you to visit us. Our church believes in the inerrancy of scripture and faith comes by hearing the Word of God. I believe in being saved, sanctified and filled with the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the emphasis of being Rapture Ready.
