    Ideologies, Philosophies and Reality

    Ideologies, Philosophies and Reality

    There are endless ideologies - political and religious - that have developed and have dominated the human race since the Babel dispersion 4,200 years ago (Genesis 10, 11:1-9). These ideologies are all rooted in the fallen humanity (i.e., inherent depravity) of man, and are ruled by his sensual nature (i.e., the five senses that govern fallen man in this physical world).

    There many different varieties of color gumballs in the gumball machine, but all are made with the same basic ingredients. So also is humanity. There are many different cultures, races, religions and philosophies (i.e., “colors”) in the world but all are of Adam's fallen race (i.e., the same humanity) - Romans 3:23, 5:12. All humanity is fallen and all need the Savior! (John 3:16, 17)

    Ideology
    Webster’s Dictionary defines this as: 1) visionary theorizing; 2a) a systematic body of concepts especially about human life or culture; 2b) a manner or the content of thinking characteristic of an individual, group, or culture; c) the integrated assertions, theories and aims that constitute a sociopolitical program.

    The countless fallen ideologies of fallen man may work to some degree in time (based on the moral laws of nature and inexplicable causes, some more than others, etc.), but they are all absolutely bankrupt for Almighty God's holy and perfect heaven in eternity (1 Cor. 6:9-11; Rev. 21:8).

    Religious Ideology
    Religion is the spiritual philosophy or ideology that attempts to answer the basic need of the human heart, which is the longing to fill an eternal void that exists in the absence of a right relationship to its Creator. This ideology is prevalent throughout the multitudinous cultures and various societies of Adam's fallen race. All human history attests to this fact throughout the last 4,200 years since the scattering of people over all the earth after the Tower of Babel.

    Political Ideology
    Politics is the governmental philosophy or ideology that pertains to managing the natural or physical world in which man lives. Political ideologies establish beliefs (theories) and practices to best govern man in the light of the natural and moral laws of time. Political ideologies are primarily dominated by the religious ideologies of fallen man.

    Reality
    As humanity develops and out-works these ideologies and philosophies in time, the eternal spiritual absolutes (truths) and natural (moral) laws of Almighty God never change, nor will they ever. That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation (Hebrews 6; 18a). For I am the LORD, I change not (Malachi 3:6a). My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips (Psalm 89:34). Almighty God and His Word can be totally relied upon.

    In Romans 1:18-32 God tells us what happened after Babel and what were the end results thereof. Humanity had abandoned truth and reality for a delusion and a lie. They had replaced the righteousness of Almighty God with unrighteousness. For about 4,200 years, humanity has been out-working their godless, unrighteous ideologies and philosophies and have been reaping the consequences. The consequences and end results are vanity and death (Eccl. 1:14; Rom. 3:23). The Reality of life is that Almighty God sent His Son (John 3:16-17; Rom. 8:3-4) to redeem man and restore a right relationship between man and Himself (John 3:3-7).

    Almighty God's Word states;

    God is a Spirit; and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).

    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).

    Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17).

    Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever (Psalm 119:160).

    Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? To know Him is to know Reality. To know Him is to know Truth. May you be sure that your "ideology" and "reality" is rooted in the absolute reality of Almighty God and his never-changing Word. Your whole eternity depends on it.

    The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

    Lucifer - The Master Politcian



    Lucifer - The Master Politcian

    Today, Lucifer (i.e.,Satan) and his Satanic "Spin Machine" are well oiled and more powerful then ever. The Media outlets at his disposal greatly abound. From the Internet to TV and Radio Networks, from Hollywood to the Music Industry, from College Campuses to the Federal Courthouses to the Supreme Courts, and from Cultural Ideologies to the Fashion World. With this powerful arsenal at his disposal he has the might and authority to sway public opinion and multitudes "24/7" and at a moments notice. Never in the history of mankind has this Fallen Cherub been so powerful.

    Lucifer has the power and authority to erode moral and traditional values, to influence and affect elections, to cause politicians to rise and fall, to change the social climate, and to push global causes and crises. For the Bible states: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12). In a vain and never-ending quest for power and worship, his sole desire and passionate goal is for the total eradication of Almighty God from Time and Eternity (ref. Isaiah 14:12-17 and Ezekiel 28:12-19). In the last 100 years just look at how Godless and decadent our culture and society has become with the rise and exaltation of these media outlets. Generations have been brainwashed and have drunk the Satanic "Kool-Aid", i.e., that we do not need Almighty God or His Absolutes in our culture and society. As the former "One Nation Under God," sadly we have reaped the Godless consequences. The Bible states: In whom the god of this world [Satan] hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them (2 Corinthians 4:4).

    The name Satan or the Devil was given to Lucifer, Son of the Morning by Almighty God (ref. Job chapter 1). These respective names mean Accuser and Slanderer. He was so named because of his attitude and actions. Satan is not the fictional "boogy-man" or Frankenstein's monster, as some have believed. Satan is The Puppet Master, The Master Politician and The Prince of the Power of the Air. His Masterful tactics of deceit, cunning craftiness, calculation, manipulation, politics, flattery, pawn-playing and prideful ways are truly unrivaled in light of all God's created beings. He uses his God-given brilliance for one purpose and one alone: a mad attempt to discredit his Creator and exalt himself above Him.Satan's Minions abound everywhere today in the American Mainstream Media. They unknowingly do his will. He knows how to maneuver and appeal to our carnal (fleshly) fallen nature which is governed by the five physical senses (sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing). The secular liberal mindset is the most open to Satan's suggestions for a Godless trend-setting agenda. They do his will quite readily because they are the most susceptible to it. Jesus stated to the scoffers in his day: Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it (John 8:44-45). The Bible also states: Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience (Ephesians 2:2).

    Conservative sources try to counteract the Godless liberal secular "spin," but they have not been able to stop the flood of their secular agenda. Whether Conservative, Moderate or Liberal, the vast majority in the political spectrum are unbelievers of the Absolute Authority and Sovereignty of Almighty God and His Word. They posses an unregenerate heart and mind which is blind to the reality of the truth of the True Gospel message (ref. 2 Corinthians 4:4). You can almost hear the subtle hiss of the Serpent today as these secularist unbelievers seek to destroy our historic Judean/Christian values and push for a secular, Godless state and world. The Mainstream media and Washington D.C. are dominated today by this Leftist, Secular and Godless mindset. That isn't any secret. Not even the unregenerate (unbelievers) will disagree with that. As Satan controls more and more of the Media today - with these Godless surrogates and talking heads - his agenda is moving along quite rapidly and increasing exponentially. Never in the history of this nation has the Main Stream liberal Media pushed for one man to be President. Today Lucifer is ram-rodding, bulldozing, redefining and tilling the worldly ground for the future Grand Reception of his Ultimate Agenda presided over by his Ultimate Minion, the Anti-Christ, who will head a Godless and Secular World Government in the near future. At that time he will totally posses All the World Media and will vigorously push his Godless Agenda to all the world's doom.

    Shama! Listen to what God's word states about this time:
    Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness (2 Thessalonians 2:3-12).

    The Bible states further: And they worshipped the dragon ( Lucifer) which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:4-8).

    In these Last Days as we see Satan's grip squeezing tighter and tighter, and his agenda solidifying and being established right before our very eyes, there is still great hope as we place our trust in Almighty God and His never changing Word! God's Christ and His Kingdom are coming as the Holy Scripture states (Luke 11:2, 2 Thes. 2:8, Daniel 7:13,14, Rev. 19:11-16).
    Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior? If not, Trust in Him today!

    This statement is written in God's Word to those who know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
    Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he (The Lord Jesus Christ) that is in you, than he (Lucifer) that is in the world. (1 John 4:4)

    The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

    Babelology



    Babelology

    Babelology is the delusional, godless ideology and philosophy (religious or political) that is outworked and practiced here in time by unregenerate (i.e., Fallen) man (see Romans 7:15-24; 8:5-8). This vain ideology seeks to exclude the reality of Almighty God - His Word, His Attributes, His Absolutes, His Natural Laws, His Righteousness, His Salvation, His Judgment and His Sovereignty as Creator - from one’s thoughts and actions. It is manifested in a life led by self-will, ruled and dominated by man's fallen nature marred by sin (Romans 5:12,19; 8:5-8; Gal. 5:16-17) and a deceived heart (Jer. 17:9). Unbelief (godlessness) is one of its main fruits (Matt 15:16-20; Gal 5:19-21; 6:7-8). During the whole time of earth’s history (which Biblically is approximately 6000 years), Babelology has expressed itself through human defiance and unbelief (see Romans 1:18-22).

    Babelology may be found in many different religious and political manners and forms (Left/ Right, Subjective/ Objective, Absolute/ Relative, etc.), and purports that man can exist in time and eternity without a vital relationship to the Eternal Creator and Sustainer established in truth and righteousness (Rom. 1:23-32). It is an existence that functions in darkness - not in light, in error - not in truth, in unrighteousness - not in righteousness, and in godlessness - not in godliness. The end result of this delusion is the absolute damnation and eternal ruin of its practitioner in Almighty God’s eternal prison for rebellious (lost) men and angels: Hell, or the Lake of Fire (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; 1 Cor. 15:50; Rev 20:11-15; 21:8,27; 22:11).

    Babel to Present
    Ever since the Tower of Babel rebellion about 4,400 years ago (Gen 11:1-9), the vast majority of mankind has been governed and ruled by this godless political and religious system. This idolatrous ideology has indeed developed and deepened throughout the world system for ~ 4400 years. Civilizations and cultures, ideologies and philosophies, religions and societies, cities and nations, morals and traditions have all sprung forth from this event. God in His judgment scattered the people (Gen 11:8-10; Deut. 32:7-8) to the “four corners” of the earth. It is these God-rejecting rebellious seeds - planted by the founders of Babel - that now dominates the world. The great hope and aim of this godless ideology is to achieve a global Utopia in which man's fallen nature and the fallen creation will be in harmony with one another. This Godless philosophy and hope is absolutely doomed to dismal failure (Rom. 8:20-22, 1 Cor. 1:18-31).
    “One must look outside the box of this world system and believe Almighty God and His Word! Then and only then can one find the answers of life, and see the reality of what life and existence in time and eternity is all about.” (see 1 Kings 8:60; Isaiah 45:21-24; John 14:6)
    Almighty God is the reality of time and eternity! All gods, ideologies, philosophies and traditions are absolutely bankrupt and an abomination before Him (Exodus 20:3; Deut. 4:23-25). Almighty God’s Word states:

    I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me (Isaiah 45:5a).

    God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).

    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).

    Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17).

    For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven (Psalm 119:89).

    Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever (Psalm 119:160).

    The Bible states that Man must be rescued from his fallen humanity (i.e., lost condition). This is achieved when one puts their trust and faith in the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ (Romans 7:24, Acts 16:30-31). In Christ is found all the provision for the sinful soul (1 Cor. 1:30).
    Almighty God will one day remove this fallen world (1 Peter 2:7-13; 1 John 2:15-17) and create a new Heavens and a new Earth (Isaiah 65:17; Rev.21:1). Then, and only then, will all things be redeemed and in harmony with Almighty God, the Creator of all (1 Cor. 15:26-28; Rev. 21; 22:1-5).

    In these last days come out of the godless ideologies of the day - religious and political - and put you sole trust in the God of Truth and Reality (2 Cor. 6:17-18)! Your hope will be sure and you will never be the same!

    The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

    The Ignorant Fishermen



    The Ignorant Fishermen

    2000 years ago before Jesus was crucified and rose from the dead, He chose men. The elite class and religious rulers of that day called these men ignorant. God, however, called these men to be His Fishermen and Ambassadors to the dying world.

    Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men (Mark 1:14-17).

    Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus (Acts 4:13).

    Almighty God would use these "ignorant" men for changing the landscape of the world by sharing the wonderful Good News of God's plan of salvation (Matthew 28:18-20). Christ would also use these Jewish men to build His Church after the rejection of His Kingship and Kingdom offer to Israel (Matthew 16:13-19, Acts 2,3).

    Today the wise and prudent of this world still reject and scoff at the claims of Almighty God's saving grace, Christ's soon return and the coming judgment on the world and see it as absolute foolishness (1 Cor. 1: 18-31). In the day in which we live, it is our desire to be God's watchmen and to look at current events through the eyes of Almighty God's Word. 2000 years later, God still saves and uses Ignorant Fishermen for His glory. Glory to God in the highest! Even so come Lord Jesus!

    A Quote:
    If the wisdom of this world in which we are living in is making any sense to you today, then I'll choose the foolishness of the cross. (1 Cor. 1:16-31). Dr. J. Vernon McGee

    Are you "Ignorant" enough to follow The Lord? The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand!

    The Trojan Horse



    The Trojan Horse

    World Net Daily has done it again and is also on the cutting edge informing the world. As I was making the rounds on my favorite news web sites, I saw the title on WND - Stimulus to ban religious worship. As I started to read the piece I was amazed to find what also was stuffed into this big pork sandwich called the “Stimulus Bill”. This “Stimulus Bill” was written totally for and by the Socialist Left Democratic Party of America. The ingredients of this bill are 93 % pork and 7% stimulus. This Stimulus Bill is none other then a Trojan horse full of bureaucracy and a leftist leaning agenda to dramatically change the course of the United States of America forever. What is most alarming is that this bill will most likely pass. We as a nation are on the precipice of absolute social change and full blown secular socialism. Our leaders in Washington are seeking more and more power. This bill is an absolute abomination to all that our founding Fathers held so dear and fought so hard to preserve. At the core of our Founders ideal was the Freedom of Religious practice. Our country was founded on these very Judean/Christian values, everything that the Left hates and despises.

    Deceive, Deceive, Deceive

    Thank God today for the New Media, Talk Radio and the Internet to sound out the warning cry. The New Media some what holds back the endless flood of the Leftist Main Steam Media and Washington elitism. 25 years ago many of these facts would have been absolutely suppressed by the Liberal Main Stream Media and we would be left with out a voice. The name Stimulus is a euphemism to conceal the true nature of this bill. This bill is a Trojan horse to deceive the American people and it’s multitudes of apathetic, social program, depended addicts which live on Uncle Sam’s Plantation.

    Alarming Subtlety

    Sen. DeMint on the floor of the house today informed American’s about an alarming provision in this Trojan horse that would limit religious expression of students on university campuses that have accepted government funds. This subtle move by the Left to destroy the biblical teaching and sharing of Almighty God’s Word any were Government funds are giving is an absolute outrage. Many of the Universities in America started off with a strong Christian and Biblical foundation. Yale, Harvard, Princeton to name a few. Be not alarmed, these things must be.

    The Word of God warns of the global mood and it’s leaders in the last days before Christ’s return to earth.

    Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived (2 Tim 3:12, 13).

    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, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth (2 Timothy 3:1-70).

    As America moves ever more leftward to a secular socialistic nation, may our voices be heard in Washington doing all we can to fight the power. The reality of the situation though is this - May we place your hope, trust and expectations only in Almighty God in these last days of America and of this world. May our eyes ever be looking unto the Lord and not too man for guidance and leadership. God has a great plan for all who put their trust in Him! (Proverbs 3:5-7)

    The Left - Be Not Decieved!



    The Left - Be Not Decieved!

    Today our nation and the world in which we live in are looking more and more for a “savior-messiah” to deliver us from the many crises that engulf our present world. When the masses are fearful and uncertain, that is when they are the most open to deception and most susceptible to relinquishing their personal freedoms to anyone who promises deliverance from their dire situations. History has testified to this countless times. The Lord Jesus Christ knew this and gave countless warnings to his own and to the world. Be not deceived! (Matt 24:4; Luke 21:8; Mark 13:5-6; 2 Thess. 2:3-4)

    The ever-growing global crisis at hand is due to the outworking of the godless secular ideologies which reject the Creator’s blueprint and design for humanity which is found in God’s Word, the Bible. (Romans 1:18-32, Gal. 6:7, 8)

    Our new current President, with his hollow promises and well sounding phrases of change and hope, has given the masses something to believe in. Though there is no real substance or reality in his promises, multitudes have taken them hook, line and sinker. Humanity always needs a leader, a guide, a shepherd to take care of them and to meet their needs (Isaiah 53:6; Romans 3:10-18). When Almighty God is rejected, all that is left is man to meet their needs (Jer. 17:5). America has chosen Barak Obama to be their “need-meeter.”

    The reality of the situation is that the majority of those who voted for Obama have no clue of what his ideological background and political inclinations are/ were. It even didn’t matter. Emotions and feeling good have taken the place of common sense and reality.

    Our current President is a radical Leftist with good intentions. His history, voting record and positions have revealed to those who want to know just who he is. The Lord Jesus stated, “You shall know them by their fruits” (Matt 7:16).

    Obama is selling himself as a centrist. However, this is just an illusion and a smoke-screen to conceal his true goals. He and the Democratic leadership are seeking to radically transform this nation into a National Secular Socialist State. His goal and the goal of the new Democratic-Socialistic Leftist-Party – is to grow government and seize more and more power to further their leftist leanings. There is nothing in this administration that reflects the ideals of our Founding Fathers and our godly heritage. Obama and the Dem’s seek to solidify their power base and to establish themselves with a permanent place of power in the United States of America.

    The War Room

    Obama and the Democrats have an endless supply of minions and resources on hand to protest and secure their power base and character.

    · They posses a powerful Mainstream Liberal Secular Media. Internet, 24/7 Cable News Outlets, Newspapers, Magazines, Hollywood culture, not just on a national level but on a global one as well. They are able to slander, destroy, promote, protect and insulate themselves from any fallout or criticism.
    · They posses a well-oiled grassroots organization and internet task force to go after, clog up and distort any opposition to their agenda.
    · They posses a government filled up with bureaucratic leftist and secularist in key Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government – on local, state and national levels.
    · Because of our tainted history of slavery in the US, Obama and his minions can play the race card against any critic of his policies and agenda. This also can be played to incite the rage of the masses. To scoffers in our midst -To disagree with one’s leftist socialistic ideologies and agenda is not racist. Obama has absolutely insulated himself with this tactic.
    · An apathetic brainwashed public (both great and small) that is subjective, “relative” in reason and totally dependent due to generations of social policies and programs. This also pertains to the aristocratic narcissists upbringing of the elite.

    With this arsenal and countless recourses at their disposal, the Leftist Democrats in power are well-protected and insulated from any opposition to their power base.

    From FDR to LBJ to President Bush our nation has been growing government at an alarming rate. The nation’s citizens have been cooking like a frog and have been brought subtly along to the current position of our nation. This “leftward shift” has set the stage for our first Leftist President and Leftist-controlled Congress in US history.

    What’s Behind It All

    What is truly behind all of this leftward movement in our nation? God’s Word has the answer!

    For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Eph 6:12).

    There is at present a great hatred of the United States of America and its Judean-Christian heritage and moral values. Not just globally but by the Leftist leadership in the national and state municipalities of America. Lucifer (i.e, Satan) knows that America must be destroyed and removed from the world stage if he is ever going to move forward his master plan in these last days. He has placed his minions in key positions of power to achieve this end.

    For the past 400 years America has been a hope to all the oppressed citizens of the world’s nations. America has been a dam holding back the great evil aggressors of Marxist Europe, Nazi Germany, Imperialist Japan, Soviet and Chinese Communism, Islamic Fascism, Terrorism etc. This Dam is slowly fracturing from within and is about to burst. Once the dam has burst and is removed, what will be left to stop the torrential flow of the world nations’ desire for anti-Semitism, human oppression and global genocide? How about……….nothing! It will take the Battle of Armageddon and the glorious return of Jesus Christ to decimate this flood (Daniel 2:44-45; 7:13-14). Like it or not, America has been a major contributor in the world for restraining evil bents and intents and the outworkings of the wicked devices of men for well over 200 years.
    Once America’s heritage and restraint is removed, nothing will be left to stop Lucifer’s plan for destroying Israel and the promises that Almighty God has made for the blessing of nations of the world through her (Zechariah 14:9,16; Romans 11:11-12). (Link to Chart)
    Obama and fallen humanity are only pawns in the long-raging war of the ages: Satan and his rebellion against his Creator - Almighty God - which will shortly be coming to a grand conclusion.
    It is our sincerest desire and earnest prayer that Barak Obama comes to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12; Romans 10:9-11). We here at the I. F. Blog want only the highest and best for him and will pray to that end. The highest and best for our new President is none other than a saving relationship to his Creator, Almighty God, and His will and way for his life.

    In these last and darkening days, it is our prayer also that many will come to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:9).

    The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

    God or Big Government



    God or Big Government

    Today many in the United States are crying out to Government to do more and more to fix our social ills. The notion that Big Government has all our answers and the solutions we need in this very chaotic and unstable world is fairy tale. It is one that is rooted in the personal belief that Fallen Man through and by the efforts of Big Government or "Socialism" can bring security and comfort to it's inhabitants and usher in a world Utopia of perfection and bliss. This ideology is full of good intentions and a delusion. The truth is that man apart from God and His righteousness can only bring upon himself the consequences of his own evil doings.
    The Bible states in Galatians 5:20-21, Now the works of the flesh 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.
    Also in Matthew 15:17-20, 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.
    The Sin nature of man can never bring about peace. God's word states in Isaiah 57:20, But the wicked 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. also
    This social gospel of man is in direct opposition to the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Bible states in Roman 14:17, For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. and also in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; 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:
    One must choose who they will put their trust in, Big Government or Almighty God. Jesus said in Matthew 11:28-30, 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. and in Matthew 6:33, But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
    To obtain true righteousness and peace one must know the Prince of Peace, The Lord Jesus Christ. Only through Christ can one obtain this reality. The Bible states in Galatians 5:22, But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
    Do you know the Prince of Peace the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior? The Bible states in Isaiah 45:21,22, 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. also in John 1:12, 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:
    In these turbulent days of uncertainty and unrest may you abandon man's social gospel and put your trust and faith in God's true Gospel found only in the Person of His Son, Jesus Christ. The Kingdom of God is at hand!

    The Abomination of Desolation and The Salvation of Desolation



    The Abomination of Desolation and The Salvation of Desolation

    In the 6000+ years of man’s history, the “pinnacle moment” is the Abomination of Desolation, the key event that will occur in the midst of the Tribulation (a terrible seven-year period that will mark the end of this age). It will be the time when the Man of Lawlessness (i.e., The Anti-Christ) will break his covenant with Israel (Daniel 9:27) and establish himself as Almighty God (Daniel 11:36-37, 2 Thess. 2:2-4, Rev. 13:14-15). He will demand total, absolute allegiance and worship (Rev. 13:16-18).

    This master politician of Europe's Socialistic European Community (Daniel 9:26) will rise to power, but it isn't until the key event of the Confirming of the Covenant with Israel that He will be revealed as the Man of Sin, Lucifer's Anti-Christ (2 Thess. 2:7-8). At this time the Anti-Christ will establish himself as a capable leader and will emerge as the key player on the world stage. Due to the myriad of conflicts, crises and confusion, He will quickly militarize and rebuild Europe's military strength (Daniel 11:38). It is during the first half of this seven-year period that he will win over the world's affections. He will be the darling of the global media; he will be praised as the peace-maker/ fighter and protector of "human" rights (Rev. 6:2). He will be a man of great vision and change (Daniel 7:25), and the world will flock to him as their Savior-Messiah. As the tribulation begins, there will be great wars, famine, pestilence and death (Rev 6). It is during these catastrophic, calamitous events when the world will look exclusively to this man to give them answers, stability and hope they so desperately want and need. Since they have rejected the gospel message and the love of the truth of salvation from their true Creator (2 Thess. 2:10-12), the Beast (Anti-Christ) will step into the vacuum/ void and rise to receive god-like status and devotion. It is during his political apex that a crucial event transpires. He will receive a deadly wound to his head (Rev. 13:3,14; 17:8,11). This event will have a traumatic effect on the godless world (3.5 billion people that are left) at this time. Their great Leader and Savior, their one and only hope for world peace, is dead. The Utopian Dream is now gone; Global Camelot is dead! Great mourning and glowing memorials all around the world will be taking place. As the world inhabitants mope and cannot cope with their misery, godless emotions will run amok. In their rage and emotional turmoil they will seek a scapegoat on which to vent their frustrations. This scapegoat will be the Nation of Israel and Believers in the Messiah of Israel, much like Nazi Germany in the 1930's (see Zech. 14:1-2; Matthew 24:9; Mark 13:11-13). It is during this time of great despair and godless anguish that the “deadly wound” of this man will be miraculously healed (Rev. 13:3)! The world's mourning will turn into great joy at the resuscitation of this man. “He's Alive!,” will be their cry. “Our great Leader and Savior is alive!” It is at this key moment and event that he will absolutely solidify his global allegiance and power base (Rev. 17:11-12,17). His first act of authority is to destroy Almighty God's two witnesses (Rev. 11:7-8), which bare witness to the Saving Grace of Almighty God. For three and a half years these two witnesses have been unmovable and unstoppable. They have tormented the ungodly world with their message from Heaven: “Repent and be saved!,” and “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!” (John 3:18-19; Rev. 11:10). After the execution of God's two witnesses, their bodies are left in the streets of Jerusalem to rot and for all to see. The world will greatly rejoice at the barbaric murder of these two men! These two messengers of Almighty God have finally been destroyed! The godless world will rejoice so much as to send great gifts to one another (Rev. 11:7-10). This execution of God's undefeatable messengers will serve to solidify even more the power and authority of the Beast (Anti-Christ)! The global chant will be: "Who can make war with our great leader?,” (Rev. 13:4,8). It will be a time of great rejoicing for the godless inhabitants of the earth! This rejoicing, however, will be very short-lived.

    Parenthetical "Three and a half days later after this brutal murder in the midst of this “Global Mardi-Gras” Festival, God's two powerful witnesses are resurrected in the sight of all the world and are ascended up into Heaven right before their wicked eyes. This very sobering event will send great horror and fear into the hearts of all the world, but they will still not repent and be saved." (Rev. 11:11,12)

    With his mighty enemies eliminated and the absolute devotion of the world secured, the ultimate power-grab and godless coup of all time and eternity takes place. This is called The Abomination of Desolation (Matt. 24:15; Mark 13:14-15; 2 Thess. 2:3-5; Rev. 13:4)! The Beast will then commit the ultimate abomination, more so than at any other time in the history of the world. In direct defiance of all who the Eternal God is, he will declare and establish himself as Almighty God! He will set up his image in the Most Holy Place in the rebuilt Temple of God (Matt. 24:15, Mark 13:14). He will demand absolute, sole allegiance and worship and requires all the inhabitants of the earth to receive his mark (Rev. 13:16-18). He will lead in the worship of The Father of Lies: Lucifer the Slanderer (Daniel 11:38-39, John 8:44, Rev. 13:4). At this time many of the Jews in Jerusalem will flee for their lives, remembering what the scriptures taught about this awesome and terrible event (Matt. 24:15, Mark 13:14-15, Rev. 12:6,14). From this point onward (known as the Great Tribulation), exceedingly great global disasters and calamities transpire, to a degree such as never before seen (Matt. 24:21-22, Mark13:19-20). The insane and delusional actions of the world's inhabitants empower Satan's man (i.e., The Anti-Christ) and his agenda for global dominance, which leads to world catastrophe. This godless decision will absolutely make them desolate!

    What does this phrase, The Abomination of Desolation, mean?
    An Abomination, as Holy Scripture defines it, is an idol or false god, making for a false reality. These godless practices are put in the place of the reality of Almighty God and His Eternal Absolutes and Laws (Exodus 20:1-5, Deut 27:15, 2 Kings 23:13, Proverbs 6: 16-19). This rebellious delusion is an absolute abomination; a wretched stench, a most vile odor in the nose. Think of some very vile odors with which you are familiar. That is what our sins smell like before Almighty God. When a godless person makes a false or an imaginary god, or seeks another reality in the light of Almighty God's Eternal Person and attributes as Creator, it is an absolute stench in His nose. It is an Abomination!
    This horrific event will thus be the pinnacle of all abominations since the beginning of the creation. This Abomination of Abominations will make absolutely desolate and waste the godless world system and anyone who trusts in and gives their allegiance to the Anti-Christ and receives his mark! (Rev. 14:9-11). This last and final Abomination will absolutely ruin the wicked of this world (Daniel 2:44-45, 7:26-27, Matt 13:30,47-49, 25:41, Rev.19:20). At the Return of Christ and the establishment of His Kingdom, all unregenerate humanity (the unsaved) will be removed from the earth. Their future destination will be the ultimate prison for all eternity: The Lake of Fire, called Hell (Rev. 20:11-15). The Anti-Christ himself, in whom the multitudes of the earth have put all their hope and trust, has led them to the place of ultimate desolation. All those who enter into this final abode truly must “Abandon All Hope!”

    The Salvation of Desolation
    God's great desire and passion is that all men would repent and be saved from the coming wrath to come (Ezek. 33:11, John 3:16-17, 1 Tim. 1:3-6). Humble yourself, cast down your pride and repent of your trespass against your Creator, and be saved! (Isaiah 55:6-7). Put all your faith and trust in Him. Almighty God wants only the highest and best for you. Don't turn your back on His great love – you will only die in your sins and be made desolate. Almighty God has made wonderful provision for our salvation, which is found only in Christ! He is the Salvation from our Desolation (Romans 7:24-25, Eph. 2:1-10). Do you know the Lord Jesus as your Savior? If not, put your trust in Him today! You will never be the same! Jesus is the only Salvation from every type of Desolation.

    The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! Rejoice!
