"Our Choices Have Consequences!" (With Videos - One On the Bible's "Mark of The Beast") - Inspirational Weekend

 

When we are young, we tend to often act without thinking things through first.  Sadly, that is also true at times when we become mature adults.  Part of that is the result of acting immediately on feelings (such as hurt or anger), without realizing or even caring that what we do or say may affect others, as well as ourselves, adversely -  if not at the present time, then further down the road in our unknown future.

Take, for instance, the disobedience of Adam and Eve in the Garden.   We all know the bad choice they made -  disobeying God, big time!  Their disobedience not only affected themselves, but all of mankind right up until our present time!   They introduced sin into what was once a perfect paradise, and look where we are now.  

But God!

The loving heavenly Father made a way for humans to be reconciled to Him - through the sacrificial and redeeming death of His Son, Jesus, who paid our sin debt for us - so that by faith in Him as the Savior, we may have life everlasting and forgiveness for our sins !  What love and mercy in God's heart for mankind!

Following is a 15 minute video on the subject of how our choices have consequences -  even of "monumental proportions"!


One important thought brought out in the above video :  besides Adam and Eve playing the "blame game" -  is the following thought:  There will be a Judgment Day!  Man was created as a spiritual being, and that spirit can never be destroyed.  Therefore, any punishment a person will have to endure will be a lasting one - never ending.

But if you are a born again believer (by a spiritual birth from above) ; if you have put your faith in Jesus Christ as the Savior and have repented of your sins and sincerely pray for forgiveness, you have a wonderful hope of future bliss in heaven when you die!  God is love, and He forgives abundantly!  

(Verses on Salvation to follow).

Another recent Christian video follows with information on the "mark of the beast" of the Bible book of Revelation.  One thing to note:  "It is all about the battle of who to worship!"  The following 15 minute video tells us that even with the mark of the beast, the issue is all about "who" to worship.  If one takes the mark of the beast during the 7 year Tribulation, that person shows he directs his allegiance to and worship to the antichrist.  



Remember, the devil tempted Jesus Himself to worship him!

"Again, the devil taketh Him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth Him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and said unto Him, All these things will I give Thee, if Thou wilt fall down and worship me.  Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, satan: for it is written, thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.   Then the devil leaveth Him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto Him."  -  Matthew 4:8-11

We Christians, true believers in the Savior, must follow Jesus' example !  Rebuke the devil!  Do not listen to that deceiver's lies !  The devil will lie to you through other people -  be cautious and discerning!  Beware of anyone who constantly lies and deceives.

That is one reason to be constantly in prayer and in the reading and studying of God's Holy Word, the Bible !  It will give you strength and discernment.  But most importantly, it will draw you closer to the good Lord !  When you communicate almost non-stop with God and Jesus, you will feel His presence and guidance and understand better what His will is, not only for you personally, but for mankind in general.   The blessedness of fellowship with the Lord (and He does desire our fellowship) is that you will have a personal, close, intimate, loving, trusting, and lasting relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ!   How awesome is that!  It is the heavenly Father's will that we do so!




Here is a partial quote from A.W. Tozer: "Do not try to short-circuit God's plans for your discipleship and spiritual maturity here.  If you and I were prepared for heaven in the moment of our conversion, God would have taken us home instantly!.  .......   God can be known only as He reveals Himself!  I have found this to be a fact: every redeemed human being needs the humility of spirit that can only be brought about by the manifest Presence of God.  This mysterious yet gracious Presence is the air of life eternal.  It is the music of existence, the poetry of the Christian life.  It is the beauty and wonder of being one of Christ's own -  a sinner born again, regenerated, created anew to bring glory to God!  To live surrounded by this sense of God is not only beautiful and desirable, but it is imperative!" - end

What Tozer said above about God revealing Himself:  God does this through the Bible, events in your life and in the heavens, through other godly people, and the list goes on.  But for this to be so, you need to be in communion with the good Lord often to hear Him "speak" and for Him to "reveal" Himself to you and your heart and soul.  

Pray without ceasing!

Constantly pour over His holy word!

Have faith and believe!

"He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me: and he that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself to him."   -  Jesus at John 14:21

Also, at John 14:23 =  "Jesus  answered and said unto him, If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make our abode with him."


"All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out."     -  John 6:37


"Excuses are the cradle that satan rocks men off to sleep in."  -  unknown

"Because where we put our hope and what we put our hope in will truly determine how we live."  -  Peter Eide

"Satan can climb housetops, and enter closets, and even if we could shut out that foul fiend, our own corruptions are enough to work our ruin unless grace prevent."  -  Charles Spurgeon

"God wants full custody, not just weekend visits."  - unknown

"A prayerless spirit has no affinity for a clean heart.  Prayer and a pure heart go hand in hand.  Purity of heart follows praying, while prayer is the natural, spontaneous outflowing of a heart made clean by the blood of Jesus Christ."  -   E.M. Bounds

Following are Salvation Scriptures for those reading this article that may not be saved; or for those who are in doubt of their salvation.   By the way, doubt of your salvation is a trick of the devil to bring you down, for the most part.

"The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God."  Romans 8:16   

"For ye are all children of God by faith in Christ Jesus."  -  Galatians 3:26



"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."  -   John 3:36

"Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."    -  John 3:3

"Jesus saith unto him,  I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me,"    -  John 14:6

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."   -   John 3:16



Have a blessed and Christ centered weekend  -  and life !

Altering The DNA of Super Soldiers and Those Who Take The Mark Of The Beast

[Koolau Mountains, Oahu, Hawaii]

The subjects of this article concern things I have known about for years, but never wrote about previously.   One thing that is fairly new to me is the fact that the military of some countries are trying to produce "Super Soldiers."   That includes America.   For one thing, they will put a "chip" in the head of a soldier, and that in turn will alter his DNA to enable him to fight longer and generally enhance his capabilities to endure much and yet continue to fight, even when wounded and in pain.   There is more to it than that.  By altering a soldier's DNA , he will only be part human.  It will affect his very soul or the lack of it, as a consequence.   You can Google more information and search on You Tube for more information.  I had intended to share a video here on super soldiers,  but it would not pull up when I searched for it.

For anyone in the military or anyone who has a family member in the military, you must warn them not to take any enhancement; no chip that altars their DNA.   There are many Christian soldiers that need to beware of this technology and to avoid it at all costs.


What does this have to do with the Bible and end time prophecies?  A lot !

"But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark.  And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."      -                   Jesus at Matthew 24:37-39

Let us go to Genesis 6:1-6,  (1)  "And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, (2) that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose."     (These sons of God were angels, fallen angels;  the offspring of these angels and human women  were the giants of old... of which ancient Greek mythology speaks of.   At the flood, these giants' bodies were destroyed, but their spirits were the demons spoken of in the Bible and which plague mankind today).
Genesis 6:3 continues: " And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.  (4) There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that when the sons of God  came in unto the daughters of men, and bare children to them, the same became the men which were of old, men of renown.  (5) And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (6) And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart."
[North Shore, Oahu, Hawaii]

To try to sum up some things, these evil offspring, these giants, had no soul.  Their fathers, the fallen angels, taught mankind forbidden things, and how to make weapons, and things that were occult, and much more.   You can find much information about this in the book of Enoch (which I do not have and I do not recommend it, either).  Another ancient book is the book of Jasher which is mentioned at  Joshua 10:13 and 2 Samuel 1:18.   This book of Jasher supposedly speaks of DNA mixing of species that provoked the Lord to anger.  This DNA mixing of species is going on today.  There are many animal/human hybrids in existence today.... and not just embryos, but full grown entities.

(This is an update on the Book of Jasher.   The original book that the Holy Bible mentions has never been found.  All we know about the book of Jasher is found at the verses above in Joshua and 2 Samuel.   There have been two counterfeit books written much later than Biblical times which have gone by the title "The Book of Jasher". My previous sources of information must have been in error, that is , if the following 10 minute video is correct.)   I tend to believe the content of the video below.   Let us just rely on the Bible, God's Holy Word.   His word is truth and life !



The devil is trying to ruin man's soul, his spiritual connection to the heavenly Father.  If a person is part human, part animal, he is doomed to hell.   The devil tried to corrupt humankind to destroy the possibility of Jesus being born.....(Jesus would need to have a perfect human DNA with also being God as well).   So the enemy, the devil, attempted to corrupt all human DNA in order to make it impossible for a Savior to be born.  (See Genesis 3:15 which follows.)  God came to the rescue to make sure Jesus was born in His due time.

"And I will put enmity between thee [satan] and the woman, and between thy seed  and her seed; it shall bruise thy head and thou shalt bruise His heel."    -    Genesis 3:15

I will not go into more detail about Noah's day except to say that Noah and his family saved from the flood in the ark had perfect human geneology, uncorrupted by satan's "seed".  They were totally and completely human, with no DNA corruption and no giant ancestry.

"These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God."   -  Genesis 6:9   (Note the  statement:  "perfect in his generations.")

From this information, you can see there was more to the reason than the fact that mankind was evil as to why God destroyed the earth with the flood.  It was necessary because the majority of humankind was corrupted and was not totally human anymore.  The good Lord showed much mercy by sparing Noah and his family and keeping them safe and alive in the ark while the rest of the entities on earth were destroyed.   God started over again where humans were concerned.  The earth was, of course, not totally destroyed.

So you can plainly see from the above that Jesus will return soon to rapture true believers from this wicked world.  It truly is "as in the days of Noah" right now, as Jesus warned us at Matthew 24:37.  Not to mention the now occurring convergence of many other prophetic signs of the last days spoken of in Mark 13, Luke 21, and Matthew 24.


Today, the devil is still at his old evil tricks.   Many scholars and even scientist, believe that the Mark of the beast spoken of in Revelation 13 will somehow change the person's DNA, making him unable to worship God and dooming him to hell.   If one takes the Mark of the Beast (the "beast" being the antichrist), he loses his soul.

Following is a 60 minute video titled "Will the Mark of the Beast change your DNA?"   The speaker gives his own opinions in some of this lecture, so it may not all be accurate, but there is still plenty of relevant truth in this video, and backed by other's opinions who are authorities on this subject. 



It is time to warn unsaved loved ones to turn to Jesus now in repentance and in heartfelt belief that Christ is the only way to God the Father, the only way to heaven and salvation.

Tell them Jesus is coming soon and that He will only rapture true born again believers.   Please surrender to Christ and put your faith and belief in Him before it is too late...... before the Rapture and before the horrific and unthinkable wrath of the 7 year Tribulation.

Tell them to admit that they are a sinner and in need of a Savior.

Tell them to believe in Jesus Christ as the Savior, and that His shed blood at Calvary can wash them white as snow; cleanse them of their sins and wipe the slate clean.

Tell them to call on the name of Jesus and to commit their lives to Him.

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by Me."   -      John 14:6

"Jesus said unto her,  I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:  And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die.  Believest thou this?"     -   John 11:25-26

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."    -    John 3:16

"End Times, Bible Prophecy, And You !" (Two Important Videos) - Inspirational Weekend


My photograph above is a twilight ocean view from a resort on the Hawaiian Island of Kauai.   It seemed appropriate to use this photo now as we are in the twilight time of the last days ..... the last moments before the dark and evil time that lies ahead during the 7 year Tribulation period.  

But this article will not dwell upon the Tribulation so much as it does the urgency of the times right now, and how many lost souls need to be saved to escape the Tribulation that lies ahead.

We will discuss the unmentionable "H" word as pastor Billy Crone calls it. The word many people, pastors included, avoid and is rarely mentioned today.... even in churches.  But first, let us view a video by prophecyinthenews.com in which host Dan Goodwin and Phil Hauser discuss the deep and darker side of the Bible book of Revelation.  The video is 29 minutes in length and is like an in depth Bible Study.  


I urge you to watch and take notes on this entire discussion.  I learned some new Bible truths from watching these two godly men and their presentation of the Book of Revelation.  The Scriptures they present speak of the "Hell on earth" which soon follows the Rapture of true believers to heaven..... the dreaded 7 year Tribulation.   You do not want to be left behind to experience the horrors and wrath of that time period.  This is deep information they present from Revelation, yet it is given in a way that is easy to understand.

In the above paragraph, I just mentioned the dreaded "H" word; yes, Hell.  

I felt led to share here two recent videos, as the times are urgent... as well as short.   The next 29 minute video features pastor and author Billy Crone who is interviewed by prophecywatchers.com host Gary Stearman.   Pastor Crone's message is titled "One Second After You Die."


We all face the fact that one day we will die, or either be raptured to heaven during the return of Jesus.... which is imminent; any day now.  Now many people do not want to think about death and, surprisingly, many do not want to think about where they will spend eternity.   They, as a rule, are caught up in the lures of this evil world; they love the world and all of its enticements.  They do not want to spend eternity in hell (if they give that any thought), yet they do not make the effort to seek the good Lord and put Him first in their lives.   It is a "me first" generation today.  

You need to be born again from above (a spiritual rebirth) before the Holy Spirit can move you to love God with all of your being and with all of your heart.

"And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:  this is the first commandment."   Jesus at Mark 12:30

In the above video, Pastor Crone gives the Gospel in easy to understand terms.   He mentions that there are many in the churches today that are not saved.  And host Gary Stearman tells us that the unsaved are growing in numbers.

I urge you to watch the above two videos to the end....they are full of many Bible truths; many gems that we should take hold of and follow and let them sink deep into our hearts and minds and souls.

                     [Beauty along the Strand at Manhatten Beach, California]

It has been noted that many people -  a much higher percentage - believe in the existence of heaven rather than in hell.  But the Bible speaks of hell as a real place and Jesus spoke more about hell than he did about heaven.   

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"  -  Romans 3:23

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."  -  Romans 6:23

The way to be saved from torment in hell is to repent and believe in Jesus Christ the Savior.  Let us consider some Scriptures describing Hell.   

First, what Jesus said at Matthew 25:41,   "Then shall He say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:"

So hell is "everlasting fire."  It is also "unquenchable fire" as stated at Matthew 3:12.  Read also Revelation 14:10-11.

Here is an important part of Revelation 14:11 ,  "And the smoke of their torment ascendeth  up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night,  who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."

This is just a reminder that if you are left behind after the Rapture of true believers, you can still be saved if you do not take the the mark of the beast (the antichrist) and if you do not worship the beast and his image.   If you pledge allegiance to the beast and worship him and his image, you are damned forever.  You then would have put the antichrist above and before the Savior and the one true God.  It is worthy to note that it is better to give your life to Jesus now, before the Rapture.  It will be more difficult to be saved during the 7 year Tribulation. If you are saved during the Tribulation, you will die by being beheaded because you do not go along with the New World Order, the government of the antichrist, by not worshiping the beast and by not taking the mark of the beast.   You will suffer because you cannot buy or sell and obtain food without the mark of the beast.  (Revelation 13:15-18).  Death will be a blessing to those saved during the Tribulation because you will go to be with the good Lord.

For more information on all this, go here

God is love.  He does not desire any to go to hell.  I am reminded of what C.S. Lewis said in "The Great Divorce" :  "There are two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God 'Thy will be done', and those to whom God says, in the end, 'Thy will be done'."  All that are in hell, choose it.


If you do not want to go through the Great Tribulation, and to go to hell, there is good news for you.  All you have to do is believe in Jesus as the Savior and turn your life over to Him in complete surrender.

Jesus loves you !

He will welcome you with open arms of love and forgiveness !

Repent and come to Him in complete trust and faith!

Admit you are a sinner and in need of a Savior.

Believe in Jesus as the Savior and that His shed blood at Calvary can wash away your sins and wipe the slate clean.  He died to take our place.  He was our substitute; our Redeemer.  Faith in Him can transform you and lead you along righteous paths.

Call on Jesus; Commit your life to Him.  Confess your sins to Him.

Romans 10: 9,10,13 tells us:  (9) "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. (10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  (13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

(3) And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.  (4)  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."   -   Revelation 21:3-4

The verses in Revelation 21 quoted just above are speaking of the new heavens and the new earth, when we will be with the good Lord in the New Jerusalem.   In paradise.   When you are born again and put your faith in Jesus as the Savior, you have that to look forward to.

Be in the Bible daily and pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17).   By doing so, you will develop a close, intimate, personal, love relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ.  If you have this close relationship, you will be able to withstand all trials and persecutions.   God will give you strength to endure all.

"Jesus saith unto him,  I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me."   John 14:6

"Jesus answered and said unto him,  Verily, verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."  John 3:3

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."   John 3:16

Hang in there!  Jesus is returning soon!


Have a blessed and Christ centered weekend.....and life !!

"Nothing Can Separate Us From The Love Of God" - (With Video On Artificial Intelligence) - Inspirational Weekend


There is an abundance of talk and action today about artificial intelligence (AI).  Some of the creators of AI have expressed fear that AI will either benefit mankind or that it is the beginning of the end.  Even a non-Christian immersed deeply in AI, Elon Musk,  has said, "We are summoning up a demon."  First watch the following 28 minute video about artificial intelligence and then we will proceed to discuss how that nothing can separate us from the love of God.  The video is by prophecyinthenews.com with Kevin Clarkson as host and his guest is Billy Crone, who discusses how some fear that artificial intelligence will cause the coming human annihilation. Pastor Crone also informs us how the antichrist with the Mark of the Beast and AI will work together to collect data on all people who buy and sell, and how AI will help to micro-manage the whole planet.  Let me assure you, this will all happen during the 7 year Tribulation period, after true believers are taken to heaven in the Rapture of the church.  So faithful followers of Jesus Christ will not experience the Mark of the Beast and all of the horrors of the Tribulation.


To begin, let us read Romans 8:38-39 :

(38)  "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, (39) Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

In verse 38 above, when it speaks of angels and principalities and powers, it is not referring to good angels but instead is referring to evil spirits, demons. fallen angels.  The word "angels" is also applied to evil spirits in Matthew 25:41.

It is not conceivable that good angels, who are "all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation"  (Hebrews 1:14), should seek to tear apart Christians from the Savior, or should have any such evil tendency.

In verse 39 of Romans 8, where it says "nor any other creature",  that refers to any other created thing or any other thing in the universe.   My own speculation here says that that could include any artificial intelligence, any super robotic creation.  The reason I say this is because I believe these robots and any artificial intelligence can be taken over and possessed by demons. Even some believe that the Mark of the Beast (perhaps an RFID chip) may alter a person's DNA to where they are incapable of being saved.  Of course, taking the Mark of the Beast is like pledging your support to the antichrist and you are thereby damned for all eternity. But remember, true believers will have already been  raptured to heaven.  Those left behind during the Tribulation will need to come to the Lord and NOT take the Mark of the Beast.  (Revelation 13:16-17)


It is so very important to constantly read the Bible - and Study it,
and to pray often to the good Lord.  That way you will draw closer to Him and develop a close, strong, intimate, and personal love relationship with Him.  We live in perilous times, evil times, and we need to be strong to be able to endure whatever comes our way.  That strength comes from Jesus.  

One commentator says, "The purpose of God, the work of Christ, the aid of the Holy Spirit, and the tendency of all events under the direction of his Father and Friend, conspire to secure the Christian's welfare and salvation."

Once a person believes in Jesus as their Savior and is truly born again, they are secure in Christ.  They will have eternal life.  God loves them and will guide and direct them along the right paths they must travel in their walk of faith.   Their eternity in heaven with the Lord is secure and a sure reality.  God will not forsake them.

" .... for He hath said, I will never leave thee,  nor forsake thee."  -  Hebrews 13:5b

And remember what Jesus said at John 15:10,  "If ye keep My commandments, ye shall abide in My love; even as I have kept My Father's commandments, and abide in His love."


The Gospel gives us a blessed hope (Titus 2:13) which nothing else can produce, and which nothing can destroy.  Commit your way to the Lord.

Jesus tells us at John 10:28-29,  " (28) And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.  (29)  My Father, which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father's hand."

The above Scriptures reveal God's love for us, and that if we are genuine believers, truly nothing can separate us from the love of God.


Read Romans 10:9,10,13 :  (9)  "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  (10)  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  (13)  For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Time is short !

Jesus could return at any moment!

Don't be left behind to face the horrors of the Tribulation period !

"(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) - 2 Corinthians 6:2            

"And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed."  -  Romans 13:11

"Jesus saith unto him,  I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me."   -  John 14:6

"What Is True Christianity" (Video with Dr. Michael Lake)


Are you a professing Christian or a carnal Christian?  Or are you truly saved and witnessing about Jesus to others?  Are you actually born again and thereby connected with God?  Do you commune with the Lord daily in prayer and "hear" Him speak as you daily read His Holy Word?

Christianity is not only a religion, but first and foremost it is a relationship with the Creator.  In the following video (38 minutes long) Dr. Michael Lake discusses about what it means to be a Christian, as well as other topics ...such as the mark of the beast.   The video is titled "Are You a Christian or just saved? Dr. Michael Lake says what the Church won't!"


Dr. Lake says we need to understand what it means to walk in Biblical holiness.... to live a life so that the Holy Spirit is not grieved whereby He pulls back and away from you.  He also states that being connected to the throne of God is the only way you will know true peace.  

Now is the time to turn to the Lord with all your heart, and soul, and mind and strength in love for Him; to come to a saving knowledge that Jesus is the Messiah, the promised Savior and to surrender your entire being, your whole life, to Him and to repent of your sins and begin to lead a godly life.  He will help you to do just that if you believe in Him and in His resurrection.   

Time is short.  Jesus will return soon to take true believers to be in heaven with Him, before the seven-year Tribulation begins.   You do not want to be left behind to face the wrath of God on the unrepentant and ungodly people during the Tribulation !

Repent.

Confess your sins.

Admit you are a sinner.

Ask for forgiveness.

Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Savior and Lord and Master.

Believe in His resurrection.

Be totally surrendered to the Lord.

"(9) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. (10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."  -  Romans 10: 9,10,13

Remember what Jesus said at John 6:37 ,  "All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me, and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out."

"And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall seek for Me with all your heart."  -  Jeremiah 29:13

In these perilous end times we are now living in, you need a firm Anchor to keep you grounded in the Lord's truth and in His loving arms.  Some people, even professing Christians, are fearful of all the chaos and violence and turmoil happening right now and are in dread of what the future may hold.  Read your Bible and pray without ceasing, and you will find the peace only God can give you.  Remember, the Bible tells us the glorious end of all things:

GOD WINS ! ! 

A wise choice is what Isaiah 55:6 tells us:

"Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near:"

2030 Agenda And A New Look At The Mark Of The Beast (With Video )


Much has been written about the 2030 Agenda, and I will not elaborate on it except to provide you with a link that will help you understand just what it is truly about.  Think about it!  2030 is less than a full 13 years away.  And the powers that be intend to have every person on earth cataloged and marked by then!  My opinion is that perhaps true believers in Jesus Christ will be taken to heaven before then.  Please go to the following link:



The following video featuring Carl Gallups is very informative and chock full of new thoughts on the Mark of the Beast spoken of in the Bible at Revelation 13.



Speaking of the beast or the antichrist, Revelation 13:15-18 tells us:  (15) "And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed (16) And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: (17) And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.  (18) Here is wisdom,  Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."

In the video above, Mr. Gallups explains that man is a carbon-based life form.  "Carbon 12  is a major component of life and of DNA, of our chemical make-up.  Carbon 12 consists of 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons, which equals 666, the number of man or the number of humanity."   Interesting!  The antichrist (the beast) will be human, but he will be indwelt by satan himself.   You will find the above video compelling.

The fact that we are presently being cataloged and scanned and tracked tells you that we are near the beast system.   But my eyes and concerns are not on the antichrist.   

My eyes are on Jesus Christ, and His soon return to rapture true believers to heaven to be with Him.  

"And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."  -  Jesus at Luke 21:28

"After The Rapture.... What Happens Next? (with video) - Inspirational Weekend


To sum it all up, no sane person would want to live on this earth after the Rapture of the church occurs.  It will be a time of desolation, violence, wars, natural disasters, lawlessness, and untold suffering as Almighty God in heaven pours forth His wrath upon all the ungodly earth dwellers during that time....the time of the seven-year Tribulation.  This is only doom and gloom for the unbelievers;  true believers have the hope of the imminent Rapture when they will be taken to heaven to be with the Lord.   It is prudent to be aware of what will happen on the earth and what will happen to wicked mankind, so you can prepare yourself spiritually by belief and faith in Jesus Christ and surrendering your life to Him, and you can also help friends and relatives and other lost souls to come to Christ so that they will not suffer the Tribulation period.   The following video is an excellent tool to help you to do just that....save your soul and the souls of others.   The creator of this video encourages you to share his video with as many others as you possibly can.


The above video explains what might happen in the first few minutes after the Rapture, the first few hours after the Rapture, and then the day after the Rapture which will be hell on earth.   The creator of this video speculates that many left behind will realize what has happened, and will repent and turn to God and ask Christ to save them; perhaps more people will be saved right after the Rapture than ever before (at one time).   One bit of information that I have mentioned before myself (that there may be a gap of time between the Rapture and the Tribulation), but this video mentions several things that must take place (according to Bible prophecy) that must happen before the seven-year Tribulation begins, all of which will take time that cannot be completed only during the Tribulation period.   I pray that you watch this video; it is an hour long but you will want to see it all once it begins.   I intend to share this video with as many people as I can.

An interesting link concerning- in brief - prophetic events that must take place in the end times may be read here.    

As I have strongly urged you many times before, if you find yourself left behind during the Tribulation, do NOT take the Mark of the Beast (the antichrist).   Many will take it in order to buy and sell and to have food, but they will forfeit their very souls by thus pledging their allegiance to the antichrist instead of to the One True God, Yahweh.   (Revelation 3:16-18).   Most scholars believe this Mark will be an RFID chip or some similar type of tattoo that has your entire history in it, such as your bank account so that it can be used to buy and sell.....and no doubt connected to some internet system to keep track of you and your actions.  

Below are two passages of Scripture that pertain to the Rapture of true believers.   There is much to be joyful about and much to look forward to if you have put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ.

"Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.  So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory."  -  1 Corinthians 15:51-54 

"For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  Wherefore comfort one another with these words."  -  1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

Billy Crone On The Imminent Rapture - Pre-trib, Pre-wrath, Mid-trib, Post-trib; Which ? - Informative Video


So many Christians are in a "battle" with each other over whether the Rapture of the Church will occur before the Tribulation, or somewhere during or even after the seven-year Tribulation.  We need to spend less time debating about all this and more time in evangelizing and saving souls from hell, so says Billy Crone in the following video and I entirely agree with him on that.   He shares excellent Scriptures and reasons to support his view, which is that the Rapture will occur prior to the tribulation period.   Please watch the entire video as it is chock full of fantastic information.


I mention the Rapture often, because it is closer to happening than ever before, the way Bible prophecy is being fulfilled at such a fast pace now....many things converging all at one time.   My hope is that the Scriptures and the videos I share will bring others to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior before the Tribulation.  After the trib. begins, it will be more difficult to do so; you will be subject to mistreatment in the antichrist's one world government, and you must choose to be martyred rather than to take the Mark of the Beast.  (Revelation 13:16-18).  Those who take the Mark of the Beast in order to buy and sell and to keep from starving will lose their very souls.   You do not want to go through the Tribulation !!  More information about this may be read here.

In the video above, Billy Crone focuses primarily on the Rapture and the reason for the Pre-Tribulation belief, which he explains thoroughly.   I like how he says that Jesus would not "beat up" His Bride (the Church) before He "married her" (in heaven) by causing her to suffer any part of the Tribulation.    

"For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,"                      -  1 Thessalonians 5:9

"Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him."        -  Romans 5:9

"For yet a little while, and He that shall come will come, and will not tarry."  -  Hebrews 10:37

Billy Crone On Artificial Intelligence, Super Soldiers, RFID Chips, Mark Of The Beast, And More End-Time Events


Back in the 90's Google started out not just being another search engine, but to develop and create Artificial Intelligence.   They gather information on us and then put it into a data base to "feed" the AI so it will have the total human experience.  Many of you are already aware of this fact.  IBM is also working on artificial intelligence, only lately they are calling it Augmented Intelligence.  This can become dangerous if the AI becomes self-aware and decides people need to be terminated.   This and more is touched on in the following 28 minute video featuring Billy Crone, a pastor of a Las Vegas church who also creates many various videos on topics pertaining to these end times we are living in now.  


Please take the time to watch this information packed video on subjects that will wake us up to the corruption and also the unbelievable things that are happening now that will change the way we live and the way we think; that is, if the Lord tarries.  I believe that many of these developments, which are being created and implemented now, will happen during the seven-year tribulation period, which occurs after the Rapture of the Church to heaven to be with the Lord.   I have touched on this in more than one other blog post, one of which is found here.  That post of mine, as well as what Billy Crone discusses in the above video, touches on the Mark of the Beast  (Antichrist) .....read Revelation 13:16-17.    The powers that be plan to microchip everything (trees, animals, humans) so they can keep track of everything and everybody.  This will make it possible to track humans so that they can neither buy or sell without the Mark of the antichrist on their hand or on their forehead. If it is not an RFID chip, it could possibly be a tattoo.  I have heard some scholars say that this chip may be able to alter your DNA to where you, in a sense, lose your soul..... which you will do anyway if you pledge your allegiance to the antichrist, to follow him instead of Almighty God.   

Then there is transhumanism and human hybrids....genetically modifying human beings.   In transhumanism, the thought is that you will be your own god and will be able to achieve eternal life without the One True God.    So they think.   It all goes back to Genesis 3 when the devil told Eve that if she ate of one certain tree forbidden by God, that she would not die and would be like a god herself.   (Genesis 3:1-6).... or better yet, read the entire chapter.   

You may search the Internet for more information on these topics.  What I wish to stress now is that we should be in right standing with the Lord; fully trusting in God and in Jesus as our Savior.  Not just head knowledge of Him, but true, deep-down, heartfelt belief and trust.   So many people who call themselves Christians are fooled by their so-called head knowledge only and not by a true conversion to the Lord.  That is why so many are carnally or worldly minded and do not have their focus on Jesus and pleasing Him and living totally surrendered to Him.  

Turn to the Lord now in faith and surrender to Him before it is too late !

"The Mark of the Beast - 666 - And How to Avoid It" - Inspirational Weekend with Videos



"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.   Here is wisdom.  Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."  -  Revelation 13:16-18

The above Bible verses are referring to the Antichrist (the beast) who will appear during the 7 year Tribulation period, which occurs sometime after the Rapture of the Church. That statement right there gives you a clue how to escape taking the Mark of the Beast.   More on that later in this post.  

"Anti" means to be against or opposed to; the Antichrist is opposed to Jesus Christ.  Did you know the Bible says there are many antichrists in the world, back in the apostle John's day as well as today? Those of you who are familiar with the Scriptures could probably name one or two today that fit that description.   1 John 2:18 says, "Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time."  See also 2 John 7: "For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh.   This is a deceiver and an antichrist."   But these antichrists are not the same as the Antichrist.   

But what does 666 mean?   The number 6 is thought to be the number of man.  The Bible often repeats things 3 times for emphasis.  I have heard it (the number 666) explained to mean  "imperfection to the third degree".   In Greek as well as in Hebrew, the letters of the alphabet also may stand for numbers, which makes it possible to add up numbers for every name.     The apostle John, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, may have intended the number 666 to be a mystery.  If you have kept up with these things, that number has been applied to several people in the past, including President Ronald Reagan.    Food for thought:  in some ancient Greek manuscripts of Revelation,  the number is written as 616 instead of 666.


To take the Mark of the beast is to give your allegiance to the Antichrist.   So the eternal destiny of those who take the Mark so that they may buy or sell is to spend all eternity in the lake of fire.  Taking the Mark of the Beast (the Antichrist) is the same as worshiping Satan, who is the one who gives the Antichrist his power; in fact the Antichrist is possessed by Satan. So if a person takes the Mark he cannot be forgiven.  To escape hell, you must not take the Mark.  That means you will either starve to death as you will not be able to buy or sell, or that you will be killed.  (Revelation 13:15).   The other key to avoiding the Mark of the Beast is to give your life to Jesus; repent and believe on Jesus and His resurrection (Romans 10:9-10).  If you do that right now, you will not be here during the 7 year Tribulation period.   You will have previously been Raptured to heaven some time before the Tribulation.   Believe me, the horror and the destruction and the plagues and disasters during the Tribulation time will be terrible beyond your imagination; you do not want to be here for that.  Just read the book of Revelation for all of the judgments to come upon those left behind , as well as upon the earth itself.  

Many in the know believe the Mark will be either an RFID (Radio Frequency Indentification  microchip) or possibly a tattoo of some kind on the right hand or the forehead, which stores all information about you and will enable the Antichrist to enforce his powers over the economy as well as other things.   This technology is available now.   It is only a matter of time.

Supposedly, by Agenda 2030 (Google this), the UN plans to have universal biometric identification for all humanity by the year 2030.

Below is an interview with Billy Crone concerning the Mark of the Beast.



It is good to know about what is in store during the Tribulation period, even if you are a true believer and know you will be raptured before that terrible time occurs.    For one, we can tell others about the horrors of that time so they will want to avoid it and turn to Jesus in repentance and with a new heart set on God and Jesus and His will.     If you keep up with Bible Prophecy at all, you will realize that events happening right now, especially in the Middle East, were all prophesied in Ezekiel 38 and 39, and Psalm 83 and Isaiah 17 and many other places in the Word of God.  So time is short.  The Rapture could happen at any moment.  I hope you watch the video above for more information and, if you have time, below is a longer playing video chock full of even more detailed information on the universal matrix  that is leading up to this Mark of the Beast.


"And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain:  for the former things are passed away."
Revelation 21:3-4

"God Is Love, So Why The Wrath Of God?" - Inspirational Weekend


"He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love."  -  1 John 4:8



This Inspirational weekend post continues, in part, the discussion begun about the Tribulation Period
 from last weekend (scroll down one post).   World events are still happening as the Bible predicted -- and close to home here in the United States with attacks on innocent people in California, for one instance.  I highly recommend that you thoughtfully and prayerfully read  Matthew 24 about the signs of the end times.  

Let me also quote from  2 Timothy 3: 1-5  : "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof:  from such turn away."

The good news is, we are so far into the last days that all such evil will not last much longer and true believers have a wonderful hope to look forward to with the Lord in heaven.  Take heart and wait patiently for the Lord.

As to why, since God is love, He will unleash His wrath relentlessly in the Tribulation period, the above Scriptures help answer that question;  we must remember that God is Holy, pure perfection.   He is also a God of justice and cannot leave sin unpunished.   God's vengeance is perfect and holy and His wrath is fearsome and something to be terrified of, unless you are saved by grace.  In which case the blood of Jesus shed at Calvary has made atonement for your sins and God's wrath will not come upon you then.   "Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him."  -  Romans 5:9

Another reason (besides justice and vengeance from God) for the Tribulation period is to bring people to salvation.   God's wrath can bring people to repent and to turn to Him.  "For when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness."  -  Isaiah 26:9
Just like now, when God will use trials and heartaches to get our attention for us to turn to Him in faith and repentance, so  during the Tribulation God's wrath will cause many to turn to Him.  
It reminds me of the verse at 2 Peter 3:9 ,  "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."



One thing I did not make clear enough in last weekend's post is that the Mark of the Beast referred to in  Revelation 13:16-18 means the Mark of the antichrist; beast is another term for the antichrist in Revelation.    A rather fitting term for someone so evil.  

Like I have stressed before, believers have a hope and a future; they will not be around during the Tribulation but will be in heaven then with the Lord.  It is time to get right with the Lord if you have not done so before now.   "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that  whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."  -  John 3:16

"The Seven Year Tribulation Period" - (End Times Prophecy)


"For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be."  -  Matthew 24:21



There is so much to write about the 7 year tribulation period and so many Scriptures to include that I almost don't know where to begin.  Maybe a good beginning is to say that if you are a true believer, you will not be here during the tribulation period;  you would have already been "caught up" in the Rapture of the Church - Jesus' "Bride" -  to be in heaven with the Lord while God unleashes His wrath on the wicked, ungodly world during this time of trouble, destruction, death, and judgment of the tribulation when God punishes the wicked and defiant people left on earth at that time.

Some time after the Rapture - we don't know exactly how long -  the tribulation will begin when Israel and the antichrist sign a peace treaty, a covenant =  Daniel 9:27.    But 3 1/2 years after signing this treaty, the antichrist will break it when he enters the temple and desecrates it and causes the sacrifices to cease and disrupts the Jews system of worship.   "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)" - Jesus speaking at Matthew 24:15.  This marks the 3 1/2 years of what is to follow:  the "Great Tribulation" of the last 3 1/2 years of that period, which will be the worst ever for  the horrific destruction and afflictions that will be unprecedented in all of human history.  This 3 1/2 year period (or 1,260 days) is spoken of in many Scriptures :  Revelation 12:6, 14; Daniel 12:5-7; Revelation 11:2-3 and others.    

During this last half of the tribulation, the persecution and wrath and judgments will be extremely severe on the Jewish people.   The great tribulation is meant to bring the Jewish people, Israel, to their knees in repentance and for them to acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah.   And in the end of the tribulation, when Jesus appears in all His glory as the Messiah, all Israel will be rescued by Him.  

Below are two videos (not mine) that go into greater detail about what happens after the Rapture:



And salvation in the tribulation:



I highly recommend that you watch these 2 videos; they are chock full of interesting and life-saving information.   

As to the fact that many will be saved during the tribulation period, here is Scriptural proof at Revelation 7:9,14 =   "After this I beheld, and lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands...........And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."  So, as you can see, many will become Christians during the tribulation period.

Don't be misled and think you do not need to get saved before the Rapture and before the tribulation;  the antichrist will want you to take the mark of the beast (more about that in another post) in order to buy, sell, eat and simply to live and exist.   Men with families may go ahead and think they need to take care of their wives and children and take the Mark in order to do so, only to be eternally damned for pledging allegiance to the antichrist instead of to God Almighty. So a person may cave in and take the mark of the beast out of weakness and self survival. To defy the antichrist and the one world government means certain death, either from starvation and famine or by being killed, probably being beheaded as in Revelation 20:4  =  "And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded  for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years."    This is very plain, and when you consider what is even now going on in the present world with all the beheadings of believers, this Scripture really hits home.   As for the mark of the beast, again,  that can be a topic for another blog post, but many scholars believe it will be either a tattoo or more likely an RFID chip implanted in the forehead or the right hand.   That technology is already here and is being used to enter locked office doors, to pay for purchases, etc., and the powers that be want everyone micro chipped by 2017.   Like I say, a subject that needs more attention in another blog post.   


For true believers and for those who endure until the end,  a wonderful future awaits us in heaven with the Lord.

"And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."  - Revelation 21: 3-4
