The Religion Buffet

Mankind has been worshiping something or someone since the beginning of time. Why people today think because we have technology that this fact has changed is mind boggling. Nothing has changed, we all worship something. What is true since the dawn of time is the fact that when people are left to themselves, they treat religion like a buffet. "Everyone does what is right in their own eyes". Many treat the Bible or other religious texts like a buffet, "Give me a side of blessings, hold the repentance, and leave out hell, and give me a side order of karma."

The world rejects the message that there is only one way to heaven. It defies humanistic logic. We want choices, we think the more choices we have the better off we will be, but the facts dispute this.  Actually having more choices is detrimental to peace and security. The more choices you have, the more confused you are, you are delayed more in making decisions, and you are never satisfied because you are wanting "the next thing". That is what the advertisers count on, you not being satisfied with what you have, no, to be "happy", you need the next new thing, the bigger, faster, prettier, richer, different thing. That is why so many are 'unhappy'.  They have bought into the lie that the goal of human life is to be happy and that doing what ever you want, getting material things is what will make you happy. If having material goods makes people happy, why are millions suffering from depression, suicidal thoughts/actions?
The truth is nothing in this world will lead to true happiness. "Vanity, Vanity, Vanity, all is Vanity"-Ecclesiastes 12:8.  What is most important is to fear God and keep His commandments. This is what leads to true happiness.

"ENTER BY THE NARROW GATE; FOR WIDE IS THE GATE AND BROAD IS THE WAY THAT LEADS TO DESTRUCTION, AND THERE ARE MANY WHO GO  IN BY IT." Jesus Matthew 7:13

BROAD ROAD                     OR                      NARROW ROAD

CHOOSE THIS DAY WHICH WAY YOU WILL GO

There is going to be a Day of Judgment, and God will judge everyone who has ever lived, His wrath is going to poured out on all the wicked and ungodly. The eyes of the unrepentant wicked need to be opened and the ears unplugged so they can see and hear the truth.  The Good News  is Salvation is a free gift from God, anyone who will believes will know and have a real relationship with the true God.  You can't work for it or buy because the price has already been paid with the Blood of Jesus Christ and  Believing in Jesus gets us into the Kingdom of God and saves us from the righteous wrath of God. But that is not all, He gives us a new heart and mind NOW, and we receive some of His blessing from heaven NOW and are equipped to be able to live a life that is holy and acceptable to Him NOW.

1. Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is real, He lived and died and rose from the grave.

2. Believe that you are a sinner, repent-turn from your sins and realize and accept you need Jesus.

3. Confess that Jesus is your Lord and God

4. Find a local Bible preaching church that does obey the commandment for water baptism for the remission of your sins and to identify yourself with Christ.

This is just the first step to a lifelong journey of growing in truth and love with the God who created this earth and everything in it, including every human being that has ever lived.

Satan's One World Government

Israel government has passed a law that every Israel citizen be 'digitally coded' with 'facial scans' and 'finger prints'.

What is most alarming is that most of the industrialized world's "Christian" citizens are completely clueless or don't care, and are not paying attention to the quickly coming one world government.  The bible is crystal clear that a final one world government under the control of Satan is going to come.  Why so many believe that it won't happen is mind boggling. Satan is a deceiver, he is not just going to pop out and say, "I'm Satan, take my 666 mark". Christians are warned over and over to NOT BE DECEIVED!  Satan is not going to reveal himself until he has complete control OF THE WHOLE WORLD!  A rational person would have to ask themselves exactly HOW could one man rule the whole world. Before technology, people could hide out, use cash/goods, the governments did not know what they were doing. But now, oh, now, we have technology that can identify/find ANY human being on the planet. The governments can know exactly how much money you have, where you spend it.  And all the programs that promote a 'one world government' use words like 'peace' and 'safety' and we are warned in the Bible that is EXACTLY how Satan will deceive the world-through promises of peace and safety.

 I believe the U.N. is the precursor to the one world government. Their 2030 agenda is the blueprint for the one world government. Troy Brewer's book "Numbers that Preach" has some interesting prophetic correlations. The number "20" seems to have to do with a person of God having the inside scoop that God is about to do something big and the number "20" is associated WITH PROPHECY.  The number "30" is associated with heaven beginning to transform the earth.  The goal of the UN 2030 is TO TRANSFORM THE EARTH UNDER A UNIVERSAL AGENDA! Elevating man, no mention of God or God's provisions/order.

The issue of the 'mark of the beast' is a hotly debated topic. Is the mark the rfid chip/bio metric screenings?  Some believe it is, some believe it is not. I am with the camp that it is the building blocks of the mark of the beast. Why some people go to great lengths to 'uncover' deeper meanings into God's word when in some places it is a clear simple statement from God. "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you." Jesus, Matthew 28:19.  The command is simple-go, baptize, teach. Paul preached vehemently against those 'Gnostics' and any who claim to have 'secret knowledge'.  God does purposely want to confuse people, that is Satan's game. God clearly tells us what to do and what to know in His word.  Yes, there are some 'heavy' topics, but at the core of the Bible is to "fear God and keep His commandments".  So why do many preach against the fact that the chip technology is NOT the mark of the beast.  "He (Satan) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who as the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understand calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666." Revelation 13: 16-18.

What did John see when he was taken into the future? John would not know what a scanner is.  But he could see people in the future, some 'apparatus' being waved over their head and hand and that is was clear that it was mandated to have to buy and sell things.  He could see people being killed for not taking the 'mark'. When governments start to pass laws that it is MANDATORY to get the rfid chip/bio metric scanning, and governments are under the control of Satan, does it really take a rocket scientist to believe that this is what John saw. The technology we have today is able to control every man, woman, and child, and is in the hands of governments who ALWAYS abuse it.  The article posted about the mandatory bio metric facial/finger scans reported that the Israeli government after passing the initial law, then adjusted it to make it 'voluntary' and that children 16 and under would not have to get it.  It does not take a leap of faith to believe that one day, and one day soon, IT WILL BE MANDATORY for EVERYONE. They are not going to say "it's the mark of the beast". No, the 'chip' is for your safety, security, your banking, your health records. Chips are now in many normal everyday electronics.  It will save money, it will save lives. Cash will eliminated.  All financial transactions will be electronic.  The tracking technology is already in place NOW, smart phones now all come with tracking capabilities, but no one is alarmed as we are being inoculated into the one world/total monitoring global system.  I am driving down the road, my phone alerts me I have been at Kroger, even if I did not buy anything.  If you think the governments in the world will not abuse this power, you really are deceiving yourself.

Right now all over the world, people are getting 'chipped' there are ominous commercials with 'happy people' saying "I got the chip!"  Bio-metric scanners are now in some airports in America and around the world, some people already have the chip and use it at stores. Many people are already chipped.  Rfid chips are in clothes, on products, all of the credit cards. It won't be long before the credit cards are phased out as well.

At the end of day it all comes down to faith. Either you will believe or you won't.  I believe what the bible says, that a one world government is coming.  The bible did not tell exactly "how" that would happen, but anyone with any common sense can see that we are headed for a one world government.  Leaders since the end of World War II have been talking about a 'one world order'. We have now in place the U.N. whose goal is to usher in a one world governmental system. In order for this one world system to be stable, they will need to have complete control of everything. In order for Satan to be revealed there needs to be 10 kingdoms established. World War 3 could happen at any moment, when the world is on the edge of total destruction, one man will rise up through the ashes and many will believe he is the Messiah, this man will usher in 'peace', but he will betray the people, declare himself to be 'god'.  The man of sin, the son of perdition, he goes by many names, the abomination of desolation, Satan, the devil, the prince and ruler of this world, will come and he will reign for a short time.  His reign will be 'praised' by the wicked, the righteous will be persecuted. The time has come for Christians to wake up, but I already know that many will remain asleep and deceived. Satan's kingdom is active now-abortion, same sex marriage, adultery, fornication, hate, corruption, idol worship-all are at all time high. Eat, meet, drink, and be merry, be entertained, there is no god, the bible is not true, all roads lead to heaven, or there is no heaven or hell. The truth is vilified, while falsehoods reign.   Jesus said in the last days that many would fall away and believe the doctrines of demons. That is where were are now. In the birth pains before The Great Tribulation.  Real Christians need to watch, pray, and get ready, the severe persecution that is happening all over the world in China, Iraq, all of Africa, Mexico, Vietnam, Sudan, India-the U.S. and other industrialized countries  is coming, we will not escape the same persecution. Will we be able to bravely face death, imprisonment,  loss of home/health, torture for Christ? 

There is going to be a Day of Judgment, and God will judge everyone who has ever lived, His wrath is going to poured out on all the wicked and ungodly. The eyes of the unrepentant wicked need to be opened and the ears unplugged so they can see and hear the truth.  The Good News  is Salvation is a free gift from God, anyone who will believes will know and have a real relationship with the true God.  You can't work for it or buy because the price has already been paid with the Blood of Jesus Christ and  Believing in Jesus gets us into the Kingdom of God and saves us from the righteous wrath of God. But that is not all, He gives us a new heart and mind NOW, and we receive some of His blessing from heaven NOW and are equipped to be able to live a life that is holy and acceptable to Him NOW.

You Have a Right To Your Own Opinion As Long As It Agrees With Mine

I sit here watching the commentaries and news stories about all the most hot topics today. What is amazing and mind boggling is the fact, today, people 'talk' about freedom of speech, but when it comes to free speech, that is only for some groups.  Some sects of people.  It is "against the law" to have your own opinion today and people are ready to act as arresting officer, prosecutor, judge, and jury, if you voice an opinion contrary to the masses.  You are not given the same right to what you believe, no, if you say you support Trump, or support marriage is supposed to be between a man and a woman, that the unborn baby needs to be protected from evil corporations like Planned Parenthood, or that the US needs to fix the immigration system and set up COMMON SENSE regulations to protect America from those who clearly and have verify-ably stated their goal is to infiltrate the whole world and take over the whole world, and they enter into 'free' countries under the guise of "peace" but back in their homeland, they are cutting off people's heads, hanging people, burning people alive, destroying property, cutting off women's breasts, kidnapping young girls raping them and forcing them into marriage, all under the name of ISLAM or some other false religion- oh, but the one's leaving their country are the 'good' Muslims and they just want to be able to practice their belief in peace, but is that a fact? Is it fact that when the Muslims come to America or any other western country do they just practice their religion in peace, or do they start to ask for Sharia Law instead of the law of land they are residing, or do they start to demand special privileges because of their religion? or do their 'members' engage in killing sprees, unprovoked, on unsuspecting innocent people all in the name of Islam?

 Why are the stories of 'refugees' raping and terrorizing those towns overseas and now those countries are trying their hardest to get them out not on every news channel? Germany declared a crisis on Islamic refugees raping of German woman AND CHILDREN, a breakdown in social order.  Surely these stories  are not really happening, because if it was, the people in America would rise up to protest placing the country in harm...no this it not the case, they are marching to let them in, under the belief that America is different than Germany or any other country, that America can control them or the unrealistic belief that they are 'peaceful'.  And if you are someone who supports keeping those kind of people out, get ready to be called every kind of derogatory name, vilified, ridiculed, and hated on even to the point of physical violence. "Toto, I don't think we are in Kansas, anymore." I feel like a character in a fantasy movie, because I can't help but think, are the way things are now real, surely we are not this far gone left, actually beyond left, we have entered a new dimension of ridiculousness.  If you are 'dark skinned' in America and you support Trump, you are automatically lumped in with the Klu Klux Klan, every hate group, a bigot, 'uncle tom', and they do all they can to attack your 'intelligence'.  If you support the Constitution of America, you are 'stuck in the past' and need to 'get with the times'.
 The "times" I see are the democracy of America is becoming the Socialist America. The masses believe the lies from the evil media, the government reports that the unemployment rate is 4.7%, that 96% of people in America are working.  Oh, we can believe what our government tells us, because they are trustworthy, they are honorable, they don't lie, they don't cheat...oh wait, that is my fantasy, we have a government full of backdoor illegal deals, the good ole boy system, the more money you have you can get your way, lying, cheating are the most common virtues to be a government official. If you believe that 96% of people are working/or financially supported, you need to check yourself into a psychiatric inpatient facility.

Right now on Fox, they are showing the protests at the airport, with signs, "We love our Muslim neighbors".  They love them because they are not shooting them or cutting their heads off.  Do we have current proof of what happens when those who believe in Islam take over a town/country? Yes we do, Muslims as a group are not 'inclusive', it is covert to Islam or die. RIGHT NOW any other religion that is not Islam in Egypt is nearly extinct, and those who remain, largely Christians, are systematically persecuted, harassed, abused, their daughters kidnapped, their property confiscated, houses burned down, but Islam is a religion of peace.  It is so sad how many are so blind. Their goal is to spread Islam around the world, but I am no surprised because the bible tells us that Satan will deceive many through 'peace'.  The Muslims coming to America are the "peaceful ones". There are millions of refugees all over the world, that are supposed to be 'running' away from the 'bad Muslims', but something that has been repeated over and over, IF the majority of Muslims are 'peaceful WHY are they not fighting back against the 'smaller' bad Muslims? And why are their own practicing Muslim countries not taking their own people??

Everyone can have an opinion, as long as you agree with what ever they believe, but if you dissent, you are the enemy.  If you are black but don't support Obama, you are traitor, if you are black and don't support the Black Lives Matter movement, you are a traitor. If you are Christian and say anything about sin-especially homosexuality, you are racist, judgmental, bigot.  But if we were to respond in like kind calling those who disagree with us "white washed tombs, wolves in sheep clothing, wicked, lawless, anti-christs, selfish, haters, the damned, foolish, unnatural, abominations, worthless, stupid, naive, gullible" OH watch out! Now you, the Christian, are being judgmental, and hypocritical.  Christians do not hate Muslims, Homosexuals, fornicators, liars, murderers, child molesters, rapists, thieves, Buddhist, Communists, Socialists, or any other sect or religion, but that does not mean we agree with their lifestyle and Christians are commanded to TELL THE TRUTH to the whole world.  What is clear that the world is most definitely under the deception of Satan is the one religion that ACTUALLY that supports COEXISTING is the one religion that the world rejects. Hindu's, Buddhists, Communists, Muslims, fake Christians- kill in the name of their religion.  True Christianity says to 'turn the other cheek, let yourself be cheated, used' and to SHAKE THE DUST OFF YOU FEET, meaning when you tell someone about the gospel, if they don't believe then you MOVE ON, you don't KILL them for not believing! It was wrong for the Catholic church to torture and kill those who would not covert to Catholicism, it is wrong for ANY people/person/government to KILL others in the name of their religion.  True Christianity is the only PEACEFUL religion. But of course the world is blind to this fact, so we have what have, they hate Christians, and love those who have hurt/killed/used/abused others. Go figure.

I counsel many different people and a common response I get when I offer solutions to their problems, they say, "I don't want anything to do with God or the Bible".  They are struggling with depression, anxiety, hopelessness, relationship problems, but they don't want the real answers to their problems.  The fact is they want to learn how to be happy living in sin.  There is no such thing. "But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith and FOLLOWING AFTER DECEITFUL SPIRITS AND DOCTRINES OF DEMONS." 1 Timothy 4:1.  The bible says that when you reject God, you are a slave to sin, and Satan is a hard task master.

Time is the teller of truth. When the war that is experienced in other parts of the world comes knocking on America's door, all those who were against moral standards, righteous rules, common sense regulations, please don't cry then.  That is something I don't understand.  You do what you want to do because 'it's your body', 'it's your life', but when the consequences of living contrary to God come, THEN you want to cry out, "God save me" or "Why did this happen to me?" When that time comes, God will have closed the door on His mercy, only His wrath for all the ungodliness  and what is doubly/trippely sad, that even when God releases the demons from hell to torment those who took the mark of the beast, and sends down hail,  and all the other judgments, the people will STILL reject God.   The Bible written so long ago predicted the very specific things that are happening before our very eyes.  The Bible says that in the last days, they will not endure sound doctrine-this prophecy is being fulfilled now.  People will be lovers of self and haters of good-this prophecy is fulfilled.  Anti-Christs will rise in the name of 'god' and kill those who disagree with them in the name of their 'god'-this prophecy has been fulfilled.  Men will have sex with men and women will do they same-this prophecy has been fulfilled. There would be a form of 'godliness', but not really the real God, this has has been fulfilled. So many other prophecy's have been fulfilled.  There is nothing left but the revealing the head honcho of evil, Satan.  We could see Him in our life time.  That is why if you call yourself a Christian, you must stay ready, you must stay focused on the main goal, run to get the prize, purpose in your heart now to stand up not cave in the pressure, don't give in to the pressure to conform.  You may be the only 'sane' one in a crowd of a thousand, but that is okay, Jesus said that the world will hate His own, so don't be surprised, when they hate you, when they revile and gossip, and vilify you.  They hated Jesus and what He said too.

There is going to be a Day of Judgment, and God will judge everyone who has ever lived, His wrath is going to poured out on all the wicked and ungodly. The eyes of the unrepentant wicked need to be opened and the ears unplugged so they can see and hear the truth.  The Good News  is Salvation is a free gift from God, you can't work for it or buy because the price has already been paid with the Blood of Jesus Christ and  Believing in Jesus gets us into the Kingdom of God and saves us from the righteous wrath of God. But that is not all, He gives us a new heart and mind NOW, and we receive some of His blessing from heaven NOW and are equipped to be able to live a life that is holy and acceptable to Him NOW.

AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH

"Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore", stated Dorothy in the movie 'The Wizard of Oz' which first appeared in theaters in 1939.  I agree with Dorothy's line which describes her shock and wonder at realizing she was no longer in a place she recognized, a place that was safe and secure but was now in a place of fantasy complete with talking animals, flying monkeys, witches, and the infamous great Wizard of Oz. I too feel like I have been transported to some fantasy land of make believe characters coming to life. My line is, "Fellow true Christians, I've a feeling we're not in world that wants truth anymore."  And the same charade that the Wizard of Oz tried to pull over the eyes of Dorothy and her fellow new friends, the bellowing statements "DON'T LOOK BEHIND THE CURTAIN, I'M ALL POWERFUL", but in truth there was no real power behind the curtain at all.  It was just a smokescreen, an act, the truth was the wizard was just an old, tired, man who had gotten lost and ended up in the land of OZ.  That is where we are today. Satan is the new fake 'wizard of Oz', bellowing loudly, "DON'T LOOK BEHIND THE CURTAIN, I'M ALL POWERFUL" and he has the whole world believing in his deception.

Today the Christian world is at odds, there are two debates regarding the current times. Some are saying 'we're not in the last days, you're just crazy'; others are saying 'we are living in the last days, wake up."  I am in the camp that believes WE ARE LIVING IN THE LAST DAYS! The prophecies about 'the end of days' were clearly described by Jesus when His disciples asked in Matthew Chapter 24 verse 3, "What will be the sign of Your coming and the END OF THE AGE?" The prophecies given by Jesus Himself in verses 5 through 14 HAVE BEEN FULFILLED and are BEING FULFILLED in our current life time. The prophecies about the end of days given in 2 Timothy verses 1 through 9 HAVE BEEN FULFILLED AND are BEING FULFILLED.    It is amazing how THE FACTS support this, but many ignore them or minimize them of just flat out don't believe them. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to see the writing on the wall. One just has to pick up the Bible and turn on the TV, look to all the news stories, walk on the streets, go to the restaurants/bars, go to the concerts, go to the churches, go to the governments, go into the homes of most people, and look into the minds of most people and you will see EXACTLY what the Bible describes as what would be happening in the last days.  The fact that many self professing Christians say 'we're not in the last days' PROVES we are, because the Bible says that in the end, many will turn from the faith and instead listen and follow after doctrines of demons, that many will have a 'form of godliness' but no real power, as it is written, "They honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me," Isaiah 29:13.  Jesus said that when actual literal proof would come-wars/earthquakes/falling away and the fact that He was giving them warning ahead of time of what would be taking place- He is making a point that even then, WITH THE ACTUAL PROOF, THEY STILL WILL NOT BELIEVE!

Never before in our history have we seen the Word of God literally come alive like it is now. Churches around the world are falling like a stack of cards, caving into the homosexual/LGBT/satanic agenda with the 'pastors' of these congregations saying foolish things like, "Jesus didn't say anything about homosexuals." WHAT??? Jesus did not have to spell out each and every sin when it was already mentioned elsewhere in the Bible!  Jesus didn't say anything about 'not lying', so does that mean we can lie???Jesus did not say specifically 'thou shall not forninate', so does this mean we can engage in sexual immorality??? Jesus did not say anything about witchcraft, so does this mean we can practice sorcery, follow the occult??? Jesus was God 'IN THE FLESH'; the same God who gave the Mosaic Law to the Hebrews. The SAME laws that Jesus followed and demonstrated and gave even more stringent interpretation of it, like when He talked specifically about a few of the laws like adultery in Matthew Chapter 5 verse 27 and 28 "You have heard it said of old, 'Thou shall not commit adultery', but I say that whoever LOOKs at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Sexual sins are the worst sins to commit and those who preach and teach that Jesus did not say anything about sexual sin, are completely ignoring and twisting what is clearly written in the scriptures.  In Mark Chapter 7, Jesus was correcting, once again, the evil hypocritical Pharisees and Scribes who were trying to wrongly accuse His disciples of defiling themselves for not washing their hands while eating bread. Jesus quickly set the record straight that's it's not what is outside the body that defiles, it's what is inside that does. So if Jesus was 'cool' with every kind of life style, why would He say ANYTHING about being 'defiled' or that He was coming to treat 'THE SICK'?  What does it mean to be defiled or sick in Jesus's eyes? A person who truly wants to discern the Word of God, knows that you use the Bible to interpret the Bible, not man's interpretation of the Bible (this is why we have so many different sects, people are following after the doctrines of men). The concept of being 'defiled' relates to the issue of being unclean, the concept of being clean/unclean first showed up in the Old Testament Chapter of Leviticus Chapter 5 verse 2, but it really began before that.  From the beginning in Genesis Chapter 3, Adam and Eve sinned. But what is interesting, not anywhere does God call what they did 'sin'.  He didn't need to because at the end of the day, ALL SIN is disobedience to God's laws.  The issue of 'disobedience to God's laws' is called different things throughout the Bible but the meaning is always the same-disobedience to God's laws. The first sin committed in the Garden of Eden, God did not call it 'sin' but it was sin all the same. God said "Because you have disobeyed Me when I told you not to eat of the Tree".  So in Genesis, sin was called DISOBEDIENCE. The first time the word 'sin' is used is in the next chapter, with Cain, who committed the first murder.  Now from the beginning of Genesis to the Chapter before Cain slew his brother, it is not written that God had told Adam or Eve to 'not kill'.  So how would Cain have known what he did was wrong? Why would he be concerned about the others killing him? God did not have to tell Cain what he did was wrong, God did not even say, Cain you murdered your brother" because God did not have to STATE THE OBVIOUS!! That is one of issues with this current wicked generation, they say that God approves of same sex unions, which is completely ridiculous, they believe because Jesus did not say, "It's wrong for men to have sex with men and for women to have sex with women" that Jesus/God are ok with homosexuality. Jesus did not have to say this because it is OBVIOUS in all the other laws that describe what sexual impurities are; and when He stated that what comes out a man is what defiles him, what exactly did Jesus mean when He said a person could be defiled? He meant unclean, wicked, unholy, sick, evil, depraved, abominable and He listed/named specific sins in Mark 7:20," For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed EVIL thoughts, ADULTERIES, SEXUAL IMMORALITY, FORNICATIONS, MURDERS, THEFTS, COVETOUSNESS, WICKEDNESS, DECEIT, LEWDNESS, BLASPHEMY, PRIDE, ENVY,  FOOLISHNESS, ALL THESE EVIL THINGS COME FROM WITHIN AND DEFILE A MAN." Jesus called these actions evil, He did not excuse them or say they were ok, no He called them EVIL and WICKED. Jesus did not have to explain the definitions of what sexual immorality, murder, theft, etc meant. The meanings are OBVIOUS. The term 'sexual immoralities was one word to describe ALL MANNERS OF SEXUAL SIN THAT WAS PUNISHABLE BY DEATH IN THE OLD TESTAMENT; and God describes exactly what He means by 'sexual immorality' in Leviticus Chapter 18- the sexual sins were INCEST, PEDOPHILIA, FORNICATION, ADULTERY, HOMOSEXUALITY, BEASTIALITY, AND POLYGAMY- God called ALL of these sexual sins an ABOMINATION.  Homosexuals are without excuse, for the very creation of Man and Woman is a testament to truth of What God said, when He made them 'man' and 'woman' and told them to go and fill the earth, that is, to have sex, man with woman to propagate the world.  The very bodies of man and women attest to the truth of God's specific creation of the sexes. Men's private parts are perfectly fitted into woman's private parts.  It truly takes a sick and twisted mind to look at God's physical attributes given to men and women and think that it is normal that two men or two women having sexual unions is natural; but that is what we are to think, that God is ok with (I don't mean to offend here, but truth is truth) a man inserting his penis into the anus of another man where feces comes out. That two women who rub against each other or wear prosthetics in mimic of male organs or men and women parading themselves in all manners and forms of lust and lewdness like the 'Girls Gone Wild' and other pornographies; they all believe that God is ok with these lifestyles.  Just typing this is making me sick to my stomach.  I just bring this point up to describe just how bad we are in the US and the world, this proves we are living in the 'land of Oz'. The fact that 'the church' has embraced homosexualty, lesbiansism, fornication, adulteries, witchcraft, idol worship, and every other kind of wicked sin into the church, the ones who are supposed to know the truth, and yet the truth cannot be found in them.

Right now I can hear now the charge, 'You're judging, your wrong to say these things'.  So repeating what the Bible says is judging? Show me where it says that Christians are NOT to warn the people about God's coming judgement for SIN? That Christians are NOT to tell the gospel to the whole world? 'Well, Jesus said don't judge or you will judged yourself!' What did Jesus really mean in Matthew Chapter 7 starting with verse 1, "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgement you judge, you will be judged, it will be measured to you."  They stop here, 'see you telling me I'm a sinner you are judging me'.  You can't stop at just a few verses, you have to take in all the verses to get the right context because the next verses explain what Jesus is talking about when He says, "don't judge"; "And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye; and look, a plank is in your own eye?  Hypocrite! FIRST REMOVE THE PLANK FROM YOUR OWN EYE, AND THEN YOU WILL SEE CLEARLY TO REMOVE THE SPECK FROM YOUR BROTHER'S EYE." Jesus was talking about being a hypocrite, telling people not to sin, but you are sinning worse than the person you're telling not to sin. That is why it is critical for Christians to examine ourselves. How can we give a testimony about Christ if we are living fowl? WE CAN'T! We are to told to live a life of holiness, committed to God, blameless, pure." Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth" and here, "PREACH THE WORD! BE READY IN SEASON AND OUT OF SEASON, CONVINCE, REBUKE, EXHORT, WITH ALL LONGSUFFERING AND TEACHING, FOR THE TIME WILL COME WHEN THEY WILL NOT ENDURE SOUND DOCTRINE, BUT ACCORDING TO THEIR OWN DESIRES, BECAUSE THEY HAVE ITCHING EARS, THEY WILL HEAP FOR THEMSELVES TEACHERS, AND THEY WILL TURN THEIR EARS AWAY FROM THE TRUTH, AND BE TURNED TO FABLES". 2 Timothy 4:2-3. 

Jesus said the wicked WILL NOT enter into the kingdom prepared for those who obey God and have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. He does not say, "It's ok to violate God's laws, come on in to heaven, I accept everyone no matter what they do."  No the words of Jesus to the wicked is, "Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels..And these will go away into everlasting punishment." Matthew 25:41 & 46; 

I'm also in the camp who believe the first five seals in Revelation Chapter 6 have been broken and we are now in the last chapter where the Great Tribulation is going to begin to pick up speed, Satan will be revealed and when this happens ALL BETS ARE OFF, real Hell on earth will begin, and the fence that many are straddling-(I believe in God but I want to live anyway I want)- will be utterly destroyed, you are either with God or with Satan, YOU WILL HAVE TO CHOOSE!!! Jesus says it is those will endure this time of great trouble who will be saved.  He did not say He will rescue them out, He said if 'they endure' and are not deceived by all the false prophets and false christs, and then by the father of lies, Satan himself that His people would be saved. 

So from the very beginning GOD'S NATURAL LAWS, BEFORE THE MOSAIC LAW,  God's natural, absolute moral laws were already in the hearts of men!!Every human being is born with intrinsic knowledge of good versus evil. Before any lessons from parents or books, this truth is evident in all humans. Watch a playground of two and three year olds, how they will look around to see if anyone is looking and then sneak to do something and when they are caught they know they are guilty but they don't yet have the ability to speak fully yet. We are all born with a basic moral code, but in order for this code to mature, it must be nurtured according the laws of God. "Train up a child in the way they should go and even when they are old, they will never depart from it." Proverbs 22:6. Parents to teach their children about God and discipline in love.  You can see the catastrophic consequences of not following God's directions for child rearing in today's lost youth. Suicide is the third leading cause of death for young adults age 15 to 24.  Why are the young ones believing there is nothing to live for when they haven't' even LIVED yet? Why are millions of kids addicted to mind altering drugs? Why are 7 year olds sexting?  The answer is clear, most were not raised in God fearing homes. I know that there are some who have been raised in God fearing homes who do go the way of the prodigal' child, but the vast majority are not brought up in bible believing/bible following Christian homes. What does this have to do with the 'end of days'? The bible says that in the last days people would reject the truths of their fathers and follow after demons.  Studies show that the kids graduating from high school today, those who grew up in Christian homes, when they get to college or leave the home, they are dropping the faith they grew up with and instead embracing every other satanic/demonic doctrine that their 'itching' ears can accept, they flock to what ever religion/belief/that best 'fits' what they think, many do not believe there any absolute moral laws, they have bought into the lie that humans are nothing but evolved animals with natural instincts to fornicate, lie, cheat, bribe, or do anything to get ahead, because it's 'survival of the fittest'.

Christians are instructed to rebuke/encourage admonish/warn/teach/command/exhort. So how would we know when we need to rebuke/correct/admonish/warn someone?- It's when we can see the person is NOT living up to the standards of God. We are to warn those who live contrary to God's laws, if they don't know what God's laws are, we have to explain it to them and explain what the consequences are of violating them.  The following slides are just a few of the 'birth pains' Jesus said would be happening in the world before His return. The sinful acts that will committed by the world and the earth itself will start to disintegrate. All this information is from CURRENT headlines in the news reports that are easily found by anyone willing to look for them past all the 'distractions' that are purposely in place to distract people from the truth for example, why is 'Beyonce is picking out a new set of clothes' FRONT PAGE NEWS?. There are many many more signs that we are in the last days, but this post is so long already, there is not enough room to capture them all, this is a just a small snapshot of the millions of stories/images, on the complete breakdown of humanity and this world as it readies itself for the coming Satanic rule:

There is going to be a Day of Judgment, and God will judge everyone who has ever lived, His wrath is going to poured out on all the wicked and ungodly. The Good News  is Believing in Jesus saves us from the righteous wrath of God. But that is not all, He gives us a new heart and mind NOW, and we receive some of His blessing from heaven NOW and are equipped to be able to live a life that is holy and acceptable to Him NOW.
1. Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is real, He lived and died and rose from the grave.
2. Believe that you are a sinner, repent-turn from your sins and realize and accept you need Jesus.
3. Confess that Jesus is your Lord and God
4. Find a local Bible preaching church that does obey the commandment for water baptism for the remission of your sins and to identify yourself with Christ.
This is just the first step to a lifelong journey of growing in truth and love with the God who created this earth and everything in it, including every human being that has ever lived.
