We Shall Be Changed!!!

The "Blessed Hope - Titus 2:11-13" or the Rapture of the Church is the great anticipation of those children of God who are looking for their Savior's soon coming for us in the air. For many centuries - from the early church until now - the saints of the Church Age - have been greatly anticipating their Savior's return and as the days draw closer the signs are everywhere that it could be at any moment!

How many believers today actually comprehend what will truly happen to us in that moment when the Last Trump sounds?  No one can fully know the extent of our change but we do know this, that we will be changed and be like Him in PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS (1 John 3:1-3)! Oh my dear friends, that is the TRUE hope of every blood bought believer who is seeking their Savior's appearance! To be like Him!

No one can fully know the extent of our change but we do know this, that we will be changed and be like Him in PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS!

My dear friends, we (as humans) are like a broken egg. When an egg is smashed and broken, who can put it perfectly back together again? In the beginning God created Adam perfect (like a whole, unbroken egg), but the transgression of our father Adam against the ETERNAL spiritual laws (absolutes) and physical natural laws of time caused him to die – both spiritually and physically (Gen. 3; 2:16-17; Rom. 5:12-19). Thus, because of Adam’s transgression all who are born in Adam (i.e., the entire human race) are born marred and  “broken” from Almighty God's original design (Gen. 1:31).  

It is only in Jesus Messiah (the Savior of the world) that is found the PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS that we so desperately need to enter into Almighty God’s HOLY and PERFECT Heaven!


It is only in Jesus Messiah (the Savior of the world) that is found the PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS that we so desperately need to enter into Almighty God’s HOLY and PERFECT Heaven(John 3:16-17, Rom. 10:2-4, 2 Cor. 5:21, 1 John 2:2, 4:10). Almighty God has provided a PERFECT  solution to make atonement for the sins of the world and all who put their trust in Him will be saved from the wrath which is to come on ALL ungodliness (progressive- conservatism) (Matt. 1:20-21, Luke 1:30-35, John 1:14, Heb. 10:5, 1 Peter 1:19).

We who know Him will be caught up in the air to meet Him and we all shall be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye and FOREVER will we be with the Savior!
.
When we receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior by faith we receive the forgiveness and pardon of our transgressions, the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God's Savior, and ETERNAL LIFE (Isa. 1:18, John 3:16-17, 36, 1 Cor. 1:30, Col. 1:13-14)! Jesus came into the world to SAVE and REDEEM fallen man so that they may FOREVER live in PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS with Almighty God the Father(Luke 9:56, John 10:10, Rom. 5:12-21, 1 Tim. 1:15, Rev. 21-22:1-5). My dear friends, I do not know anything more wonderful than that! And we who know Him (John 1:10, Acts 4:12) will be caught up in the air to meet Him and we all shall be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye and FOREVER will we be with the Savior!

This vile fallen body which is marred and ruined(Rom. 7:7-25) to PERFECTLY honor Almighty God's RIGHTEOUS demands will be changed to a RIGHTEOUS body as His (1 Cor. 15:51-58, Phil. 3:21, 1 John 3:1-3)! This may be the year the Trump will blow and what encouragement this is to redeem the time for Almighty God's glory (Eph. 5:16-17)!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

America's Crossroads - Big Government or Almighty God
















Today many in the United States are crying out to President Obama and Government to do more and more to fix our social ills. The notion that Big Government has all of the answers and solutions we need in this very chaotic and unstable world is a fairy tale. It is one that is rooted in the mistaken belief that Fallen Man through and by the efforts of Big Government or Socialism can bring security and comfort to its citizens or constituents. There is no man-made ideology or system that can ever usher in a world Utopia of perfection and bliss. These ideologies are delusional though full of good intentions. The truth is that man apart from Almighty God and His righteousness - no matter how sincere he is - can only bring upon himself the consequences of his own evil doings.

While Conservative values (WHICH ARE BASED ON NATURAL LAWS AND MORAL ABSOLUTES) are tried and true and are thus the best ideology for a profitable existence in time, these are no replacement for possessing a saving relationship with God's Messiah (Christ), which is absolutely essential for Almighty God's ETERNAL and Holy (Perfect) Heaven. The Conservative and Liberal ideologies of the day can never provide the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUSNESS and heavenlynecessities demanded by Almighty God and found only in the person of Almighty God's Son, Jesus Christ (see Romans 10:4). What is insane about our day is that countless Americans are choosing Obama's Socialism over the Almighty God and TRUE liberty.

What is insane about our day is that countless Americans are choosing Obama’s Socialism over the Almighty God and TRUE liberty.

Read what the Word of God, the Bible, has to say about this question:

Now the works of the flesh (our fallen humanity) are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God (Galatians 5:20-21).
.
And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man (Matthew 15:17-21).
.
The Fallen Nature of Man Can Never Bring About True Peace:

But the wicked (unsaved humanity) are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked (Isaiah 57:20).

.
This Social Gospel of man is in direct opposition to the true Gospel of Jesus Christ:

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; butrighteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost (Romans 14:17).

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures(1 Corinthians 15:1-4).
.
One must CHOSE whom they will trust, i.e., Big Government or Almighty God. Jesus said:

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light (Matthew 11:28-30).

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you (Matthew 6:33).
.
To obtain true righteousness and peace one must know the Prince of Peace, The Lord Jesus Christ. Only through Christ can this possibility become a reality:

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law(Galatians 5:22).

Do you know the Prince of Peace, the Lord Jesus Christ, as your Savior?

And there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else (Isaiah 45:21b-22).

But as many as received him (Jesus Christ), to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12).

In these turbulent days of uncertainty and unrest, may you abandon man's social gospel and put your faith - your total trust - in God's true Gospel that contains and consists of the wonderful Person of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand!

Full Throttle Baby!!














We as a nation are already off of the cliff and in mid air towards our national doom. We are free falling at present with our foot to the floor with fatal impact moments away, but yet scoffers and kool-aid drinkers abound, the low info crowd stays..."low info'd...,  conservatives trust that there still is a chance to save our nation which is saturated with lawlessness, moderates trust that compromise with lawlessness will fix our nation and the progressive Left believe and trust that America's utopia is just around the corner. All these groups have one thing in common, they all are oblivious to REALITY, deceived and subjective in their thinking (Rom. 1:18-24). All these groups REFUSE to believe what Almighty God's Word states ever so clearly about ETERNAL salvation, mankind's fall, the Day of the Lord, Almighty God the Son's glorious return, His 1000 year Kingdom reign in RIGHTEOUSNESS and ETERNITY in a new heavens and earth (Acts 4:12, Rom. 1:18-32, 10:2-4, 2 Peter 3:3, Isa 2:1-4, 11:1-10, Mic 4:1-4, Zech.14:16-21, Rev 19:11-21,20:11-15, 21-22:1-5). Thus all these groups are ETERNALLY doomed unless they wake up to REALITY and receive the mercy and grace of Almighty God which He has provided for the world in His precious Son(John 3:16-17).

You see my dear friends... the Bible is not a "religious" book, its spiritual and moral absolutes, precepts and word are RIGHTEOUS, REALITY and TRUTH which transcends time and ETERNITY.

You see my dear friends... the Bible is not a "religious" book, its spiritual and moral absolutes, precepts and word are ABSOLUTE, RIGHTEOUS, REAL and TRUE and transcends the temporal confines of time and ETERNITY (Psalm 138:2, John 17:17, Rev. 21-22:15). You see my dear friend, the Lord Jesus was not a weak frail failure, a "victim" of the powers that be, a "good" man or teacher, a social engineer, a moral relativist or your homeboy. He is Almighty God the Son who holds ETERNITY in His nail pierced hands (Isa. 9:6-7, Mic 5:2, Rev. 1:11). He is the Creator of the Heavens (the billions of galaxy's and Universe) and the earth(John 1:1-3, Heb. 1:2-3). He is the King of ETERNAL glory who left Heaven's ETERNAL glorious throne in Divine Love to be the Savior of the world and to be the RIGHTEOUS propitiation (John 1:14, Phil. 2:5-10, John 3:16-17, 1 John 2:2, 4:10) for a big old godless world that absolutely hates and despises His guts and RIGHTEOUSNESS (John 1:10-12, Rom. 1:18-32, Eph. 2:1-10, 1 Peter 3:18).

You see my dear friend, Jesus was not a weak, frail failure, a "victim" of the powers that be, a "good" man and teacher, a social engineer, a moral relativist or your homeboy. He is Almighty God the Son who holds ETERNITY in His nail pierced hands.

Christ arose FOREVER VICTORIOUS from the grave and crushed death's reign, who's shackles since the fall have bound the sons and daughters of Adam (Rom. 5:12-21, ! Cor. 15:58, Heb. 2:14-15). He has liberated the souls of men who have placed their trust in His saving work (John 1:12, Rom. 7:24-25, 1 Cor. 15:55-58, Gal. 1:4, Eph. 2:1-12, Heb. 2:14-15) and has proclaimed the certain ETERNAL doom of lawless and godless men and women as well (John 3:36, 8:24). HE then ascended to the Right Hand of Almighty God the Father and WILL come again in glory to crush Lucifer's angelic rebellion and mankind's as well (Psalm 110:1, Zech. 14:3-9, Heb. 1:2-3, Rev. 19:11-21, 20:1-3,10). He WILL then establish His Kingdom reign which will NEVER end and He will rule with RIGHTEOUSNESS, MERCY and GRACE for a thousand years (Isa. 11:1-10, Dan. 2:44-45, 7:13-14, Zech. 14:3-21, Rev. 19:15, 20:5-6). He WILL then judge the sons and daughters of Adam in RIGHTEOUSNESS (Rev. 20:11-15, 21:8, 22:11) and then dissolve time and commence the ETERNAL estate of the redeemed in which they WILL reign with Him FOREVERMORE in RIGHTEOUSNESS, JOY and PEACE (John 14:1-4, 1 Cor. 2:9, Rev. 21-22:1-5).

...but yet these WILL continue to refuse and reject the WONDROUS redeeming LOVE of Almighty God and WILL hold unto their godless delusion unto the end and WILL call TRUE REALITY a delusion and tyrannical and those who believe Almighty God bigots and crazy.

My dear friends, this is REALITY and this is what all human beings throughout the world today need to receive, but yet these WILL continue to refuse and reject the WONDROUS redeeming LOVE of Almighty God and WILL hold onto their godless delusion unto the end and WILL call TRUE REALITY a delusion and tyrannical and those who believe Almighty God bigots and crazy (Isa. 5:20, John 3:19-21, Rom. 1:18-32, 1 Cor. 1:18-31, Rev. 9:20-21).

My dear friends, Almighty God cries out to you today and this fallen and godless world to repent and be saved from the wrath which is to come, for it IS coming (John 3:36, Rev. 6-19). There can NEVER be any place for lawlessness in Almighty God's RIGHTEOUS ETERNITY for then it would be no different than here on the doomed and fallen planet of earth (1 Cor. 6:9-10, 15:50, Rev. 21:27, 22:11).

My dear friends, Almighty God cry's out to you today and this fallen and godless world to repent and be saved from the wrath which is to come, for it IS coming.

Today, even if you are a scoffer but want to truly know, call out to Him and ask Him to bring you and show you the TRUTH (John 4:24, 14:6) and He most surely will. Believe me, I know my friends. Before I came to Christ I had my lists of justifications for my godless life and God knows I beat my drum but in the end Almighty God showed me in His mercy and grace how right He was and how doomed and wrong I was (Eph. 2:1-2). Oh my dear friends DO NOT be a fool! Almighty God does very much care for you and has not forsaken you but you have forsaken Him and His RIGHTEOUSNESS (Rom. 5:6-8, 8:32). The whole world has forsaken God -John 1:10) and those who have Almighty God's pardon through receiving His precious Son can testify that ONLY Jesus saves and sets one free from the bondage of this fallen world and its oppressors and from the ETERNAL consequences of a lawless and godless life (Eph. 2:1-10, Rev. 20:11-15).

May you see the ETERNAL picture of what this life (existence - born -die) is TRULY about. The Son and TRUTH will set you FREE and you will be liberated (FREE) indeed (John 8:32,36)!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

There’s No Way Out Unless You Walk Heaven’s Trail…

As this world in which we live in today is spiraling frantically out of control, what hope is there at all for its doomed inhabitants? The reality is that this world and its inhabitants are at the end of its course. You know there's nothing like the real world to get one down. There's nothing like the world outside that turns one's world upside down. It makes one feel like they're heading down a one-way, dead-end street.

We are indeed headed down a one way dead end street. Not to rain on any body's parade but... we are at the end of the age with Divine judgment just ahead(Matt 13:26-30, Mark 13:28-30). No subjective delusional optimistic appraisal can make these sobering realities disappear. What are we to do?

Adam and Eve in all their wildest dreams could NEVER  have imagined the horrific consequences that would result that day by opening "Pandora's Box" in the Garden of Eden.

All of the world's accumulated technology and knowledge that we have acquired over the last 6000 years has only made us extremely more violent and oppressive. Time and technology have only served to show and reveal the absolute depravity and hopeless state and condition of man (Gen. 6:5, Isa. 53:6, Jer. 17:9, Romans 1:18-32). Adam and Eve in all their wildest dreams could NEVER  have imagined the horrific consequences that would result that day by opening "Pandora's Box" in the Garden of Eden (Gen 3). Their trespass and violation against Almighty God's natural and ETERNAL absolutes had all the horrific effects of a 100 mega ton bomb (Isa. 24:4-6). So savage and violent had the pre- flood world become after Adam’s transgression that Almighty God wiped it out via the Genesis flood except Noah and his family (Gen 6:1-13). Is the hour and day in which we live in any different then Noah's day? So violent and corrupted have we – the inhabitants of planet earth - become that we as a world are now at the very door  of the Day of the Lord as Almighty God has spoken of (Matt 24, Mark 13:28-30, 2 Tim 3:1-7). What makes anyone think that they can escape the coming wrath of Almighty God? We have exponentially transgressed His natural laws, we have exponentially violated His spiritual ETERNAL absolutes, and we have sown our own godless way and have reaped the horrific consequences. It is this horrific reaping that has led us to this very moment in time (Isa. 24: 4-6, Gal 5:19-21, 6:7-8).

Biblical Objectivity

Try to stand back and objectively look at the span of time here on earth; from the Tower of Babel with its global catalyst of godlessness and passion to live an existence with out Almighty God, to the worldly brilliance and idolatrous society of Egypt. From the autocratic power of the Babylonians, to the strength of the Media Persians Empire. From the conquering speed and philosophy of Greece, to the decadent and oppressive Roman Empire. From the genus and barbarity of the Aztec, Mayans and Incas, to the godless vacuum of the European nations and lust for war. All of these civilizations have been one GODLESS, violent, decadent and oppressive cesspool of death and horror to the world's inhabitants (Rom. 1:18-32). Almighty God describes some of these global empires as ferocious wild beasts to help us better understand them from a heavenly perspective (Dan 7, Rev 13:1-2). My friend what is most astounding is that we haven’t evened peaked as a fallen race until we reached the 20th century. There has NEVER been a more violent, murderous, oppressive, narcissistic and decadent century in the history of mankind. All of our world’s exponential technological advances made in this last century has given the world more power at their finder tips to show forth the fallen godless passions and violence of the human heart (Jer. 17:9). Of course we have had some noble occasions and humanitarian exploits through out this time, but these are but a faded blip and pale exponentially in comparison to mankind’s history of violence, lust and decadence (Rom 3:3-23). The out working and horrific consequences from the billions that have inhabited planet earth since Babel have completely ravished and laid waste the lands and the world's inhabitants. The godless Babelology that first raised its head 4200 years ago (Gen 11:1-9), has thoroughly engulfed and saturated the world. This Babelology has made spiritually stinking drunk its billions of inhabitants (from Babel to present- 4200 years) to the crucial realities of time and eternity(Eph. 2:1-3, Rev 17:1-2, 18:24).

All of our world’s technological advances have exponentially given the world more power at their finger tips to show forth the fallen godless passions of our heart.
,
Even America, which was founded during the Philadelphia Church Age (from about 1700 to about 1900 – the church of the “open door” – Rev 3:7-13), was established on the bedrock of natural and moral laws and foremost acknowledged the Person of Almighty God. America was founded at the end of the world’s time line which spans about 4200 years. Just in these brief 235 years of our nation's history we have reached socially and culturally the point of no return. There has been no other nation in the world's history that has sent out the Biblical Gospel light as America has. America has been a beacon of freedom to the worlds oppressed and has been a global dam holding back the world’s anti-Semitism, oppressive tyrannies and the unbridled passions of fallen despots, especially in this last century. Let me ask you this very sobering question, “What do you think will become of the world once America restraining influence has been removed from the scene?” The very sobering answer is... GREAT tribulation and global anti -Semitism(Zech 14:2, Rev 6-16).

It‘s All Been Tried

Through the 6000 years of recorded world history countless forms of ruling classes have established governments dominated by their godless unbridled ideologies (Rev. 17:2). All of these nations have used Babel's blueprint in establishing their own delusional culture and systems. Out of all of these earthly (carnal) sensual ideologies (1 Cor. 2:14, 3:19, James 3:15) have sprung forth a vast spectrum of oppressive and damnable religions (spiritual philosophies), totalitarianism, fascism, socialism, oppressive dictatorships and despots, monarchies, democracies, republic’s etc... ALL, of which have met their end because of decadence or violence. The ones that remain today are on the verge of collapse. What hope is there at all for the future of the world's inhabitants when all of the world's kingdoms are nothing but oppressive and violent destroyers? The sane answer is an obvious NONE, absolutely NONE. Without Almighty God’s outside intervention(John 3:16-17, Gal 1:4) mankind will eventually make its self extinct. Mankind has repeatedly beat its drum to many different tunes patterned after the Babel blueprint and all have been disastrous (Rom. 1:18-32, Rev 17:1-2,5, 18:24).
.
There is absolutely NO HOPE or WAY OUT of our temporal earthly confines and our un-regenerated fallen human state and condition (Rom. 5:12-19, 7:24-25, 1 Cor. 15:21-22). There are many voices and trails that lead to ruin, but there is only one trail that will lead us to a place of deliverance and redemption. That heavenly trail leads to Almighty God and His Son Jesus Christ. It is by FAITH alone that we look objectively outside of ourselves and choose to believe Almighty God and His unchangeable Word and promises (Mark 11:22, 2 Cor. 1:20, Titus 1:2, Heb. 11:1, 6). When we do, we will be set free delivered and set free from the oppressive bonds of this world and have access to Heaven's domain (Eph 1:3,Col 3:1-2).

My friend, there is absolutely no way out, no way out of this living hell, no way, no way out unless we walk Heaven’s trail.

Heaven’s Trail Leads To Eternal Life!

Almighty God has provided the solution, remedy and trail for Adam’s fallen race to follow. He promised Adam and Eve at the beginning that “the seed of the women would crush the head of the serpent (Gen 3:15, Rom. 5:12-19, Heb. 2:14-15, Rev 21:1-7)”. This theme of God’s saving grace and redemption is the life giving line that flows through out the entire Bible. God has provided a Savior (John 3:16-17, Acts 4:12, 1 John 4:14, 2 Peter 1:1)! There is a Lamb slain from before the foundation of the world (1 Peter 1:19-20, Rev 13:8)! There is a narrow heavenly trail that leads to ETERNAL LIFE and REDEMPTION with Almighty God (Matt 7:13-14, John 14:6, 1 Cor. 1:30)!

Jesus stated, Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it(Matt.7:13-14).

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).

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture(John 10:9).

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)

My friend have your eyes been opened to the horrific realities and conditions of the very hour in which we live in and you find yourself with absolutely NO answers or solutions? There is absolutely NO human remedy. There is absolutely NO human solution for the growing exponential global crisis of our day. No delusional optimistic human appraisal can give you the answers or solutions that you are so desperately looking for or need to give your heart the consolation that it is seeking. My friend with America on the verge of social collapse and anarchy before us, what is one to do?

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you (Matt 6:33).

My friend, the world needs to wake up and smell the coffee and let 6000 years of human history testify to it of our desperate need for our Creator and Savior(Heb 1:2-3). Time will not go on forever. A Day of reckoning has been foretold by Almighty God in which all will give and account (Rev 20:11-15). Eternity is where each one of us will abide forever. Our future destiny is not to be found in this temporal fallen world.

Do you know Jesus Christ as your personal Savior? It is ONLY through Him alone that we can be delivered from this present evil world (John 3:16-17, 1 Cor. 7:31, Gal 1:4, 1 John 2:17)! Jesus Christ is God's Heavenly trail that will deliver us from this living hell here on planet earth and the Lake of Fire which is to come (Rev. 20:11-15).

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
