My photo above of a South African Starling (taken at the Honolulu Zoo) is just another reminder of how glorious and beautiful are God's creation. It is unfortunate that man has done so much damage and is destroying a lot of God's handiwork. I keep up with a lot of news, from a Biblical perspective, and I realize that time is fast approaching a prophetic climax, considering all the Bible prophecies now being fulfilled at an accelerated pace, a convergence of many prophecies coming true in these last days. This all leads up to the imminent return of Jesus Christ to rapture His Bride - the Church, true believers- at any moment now. I want to focus now on the Rapture of the Bride.
"Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven." - Acts 1:11
Below are two videos discussing the Rapture, featuring Tommy Ice who is very knowledgeable about this subject. They are both very informative and I learned some new things from watching them. The first video to me is more of a warm up to meatier matter in the second video, Part 2. Please take the time to watch both videos as they will give you new insight and valuable information.
Below is part 2, a must view!
If you watch the news and keep up with things, I am sure you will agree that the world is in chaos and something has to give. Once the Rapture happens, sometime thereafter the 7 year tribulation period begins when God pours out His wrath on the ungodly people who defy Him. You do not want to be here then!! Trust me! Rather, trust God and His Word.
If you are not now a believer in the Savior Jesus Christ, I urge you to repent and turn to Him and surrender your life to Him. Below are some "salvation" Scriptures:
Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"
Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ
our Lord."
John 3:16 "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 14:6 "Jesus said unto him, I Am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the
Father, but by Me."
Romans 10:9 "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."
Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Turn to God in prayer and heartfelt, sincere repentance and ask Him to forgive you of your sins, and to come and live within in you in the form of the Holy Spirit. Tell the heavenly Father you believe Jesus died and shed His blood for the remission of sins and that you are grateful and want to live your life in complete surrender to Him. Tell Him also that you believe God resurrected Jesus from the dead. Thank the Lord that He made the way for sincere believers to gain everlasting life. Pour out your heart to God and Jesus. God will hear and answer a sincere prayer like that.
Time on this earth is short; eternity is forever. Eternity is a long time to spend in the wrong place....Hell.
