Mental Ascent to Heavenly Bliss

Leave a comment

It is the Spirit of God that helps us to make the mental ascent to heavenly bliss. Without the Spirit it would be impossible. Without the beautiful mind created by God it would be impossible. It’s not only possible for the followers of Jesus Christ, but also essential to maintain our sanity in a world gone mad. All the hateful rhetoric and all the horrible actions of humanity begins in the mind. As we fast approach the End of Time, Satan and the powers of darkness have taken over total control of what most people think even if they vehemently deny it. Satan wants your mind. Thoughts from the enemy come in like a flood leading humanity to think the most horrendous thoughts even if they don’t express those thoughts openly. Often times those thoughts from the enemy will return again and again leading most to dwell on those thoughts for hours at a time as if they were their own thoughts. As a believer, if you are honest, you too have had to contend with these unwarranted thoughts invading your space from time to time. Thoughts from the enemy often sneak in when you least expect them to tempt you to entertain the thought even if it’s only for a brief moment in time. Today we will talk about how to guard your thoughts so that every thought, even for the briefest amount of time, will be pleasing to God. Continue reading Mental Ascent to Heavenly Bliss →

The Great Deception of Mankind

Leave a comment

If you are an American, then you have heard a lot about our freedoms and religious tolerance guaranteed by our constitution and democratic institutions. This is in stark contrast to the Chinese government which visibly and openly represses dissent for their involvement in every religion to conform it to the communist party’s ideology and its rules. Outwardly, we may appear to be completely different from the Chinese government, but it only appears that way. Our government has simply chosen a different approach and methodology, but its outcome will be the same. What our government is doing by openly proclaiming religious tolerance with one hand while under the cover of night, they wield the other hand of deception that is both disingenuous and hypocritical. Their aim is the same as Communist China to destroy our faith and allegiance in God alone, to direct the affairs of mankind, and to solve all of their problems. We are being conditioned and controlled in the dead of night to separate us from God. And even more disturbing, they have convinced us that we are the freest nation on the planet. So, how is this being ingeniously accomplished by those in power? How are they deceiving us? Continue reading The Great Deception of Mankind →

Watchman on the Wall – Hell is at the Gates

Leave a comment

Most of humanity is meandering toward hell and are completely oblivious about what they are doing. Most Christians have locked up the Book of Revelation, seeing it as only a future prophecy with no relevance for the modern world. On the other hand, there is a segment of Christians who believe that all the prophecies in the Book of Revelation have already been fulfilled with the reign of the Caesars, the persecution of Christians, and the world empire of ancient Rome, seen as Babylon the Great. For many years, I have believed that the Revelation is relevant for every period from the First Century until Christ returns in glory just before the end of the world to rapture up His children and usher them into eternal glory. I have written many articles on every plague, woe, and the bowls of God’s wrath in the Revelation to demonstrate their relevancy for each period throughout Christian history. I have written about the first woe (Revelation 9:1-11), “The Silent Pandemic of Mental Illness” and the second woe (Revelation 9:12-21), “The Muslim Invasion” that has adversely affected humanity. If we open our spiritual eyes, we can clearly see that the trumpets and the bowls of God’s wrath have taken place in the past, in our current day, and soon to take place. The Book of Revelation is dynamic for all of Christian history and was never written to be static for just one period in time. Although each Christian epoch was written as if it were the last, I firmly believe that hell is at the gates, and I am compelled to give one last warning to Christians living now.

Upward Calling in Christ Jesus

Leave a comment

“I press on toward the goal for the prize of the

Upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:14, ESV)

What keeps us moving ahead? What keeps us looking forward instead of looking back all the time? For the believers in Christ, it is our upward calling in Christ Jesus. Unfortunately, many are stuck in the past, focused on their past failures, or reminiscing on what they perceive as good times in the past. For the Christian, it should be different. Yes, hopefully, we have learned from our previous mistakes by only glancing back, but our focus should always be on the future and our upward calling in Christ Jesus. This does not keep us from being thankful in all things, including what God has done for us in the past (II Thessalonians 5:18). This is one area that fallen humanity has not grasped. From the news services to psychological counseling, and those who are unwilling to forgive others, they are always stuck in the past. They are always rehashing the past over and over again never allowing humanity to forget their failures and move on to a new day. They have not really learned from their mistakes because every time they are rehashed somehow the facts keep changing. They have not learned how to forgive the past, holding much of humanity in bondage to their past errors. For the Christian, it should be different. We learn from the past. We forgive ourselves and those who have wronged us, which allows us to forget the past and move on. Every day should be a new day in the Lord (II Corinthians 4:16).

This Could Be Your Last Warning

Leave a comment

You have read the Holy Scripture and heard the prophecies, which has cast most into denial or an elevated state of fear. Many of you have seen with your own eyes the increasing number of major earthquakes, catastrophic storms, seemingly endless heatwaves, and forest fires engulfing an entire continent. At times it seems like the world is coming apart with one disaster after another. Many of you have adopted your favorite prophecy, which attempts to give meaning to what’s currently happening in the world and what’s on the horizon. Some have believed that before things get too bad, they will be whisked away in a secret rapture, while others believe that they must endure the Great Tribulation to strengthen their faith and mold them into all godliness. Unfortunately, some believe that they can bring the Kingdom in by force through the political process and the institution of new laws. Their prophecy is summed up in bringing in the Christian Kingdom by force forcing everyone to obey. Contrary to what you believe, the truth is we are all going to die. Contrary to what you believe the heavens and the earth will pass away, perhaps sooner than you think. This could be your last warning. Continue reading This Could Be Your Last Warning →
