Just one question: If, if this is true then why do our politicians and those who do their bidding in the media possess the spirit of antichrist—an anti-Christian spirit that treats others with such hostility, disrespect and mean-spirited? Why is the state of our country so godless and in an advanced state of decay and decline? Something is grossly immoral and amiss! hr
Consider this from 3 of our founding fathers:
  1. Benjamin Franklin - Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants.
  2. Jedidiah Morse - Whenever the pillars of Christianity shall be overthrown, our present republican forms of government - and all blessings which flow from them - must fall with them.
  3. John Adams - Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

This may help to answer some of your questions as to our current national state of affairs. The honest student of history knows this to be true. Also read:

Think On This
The Great Deception

Choose the right path Sometimes in life the choice between two paths seems almost indistinguishable. It may not be one of your doing but there it is anyway. You may wonder how it came about but wonder as you may it's not going away. You may think because it is not too distinguishable it is of little consequence so your choice is not really going to impact you in the short-term—and you hope in the long term.

The day has come we are faced with such a choice. It is not one of our doing but we all have to make it. But before you do, I ask this one simple question for serious consideration: If you consented to wear the government's and businesses' mask today will you wear their mark tomorrow? For that day surely is coming—sooner than you think. They know the more we go along with the false and illegal choices forced upon us the easier in time it becomes. They've done their studies. It has all been war-gamed out by them. Look it up. (Start with just these 3: 1. 2001 - Dark Winter, conducted by Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Strategies, in collaboration with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the Analytic Services Institute for Homeland Security, and the Oklahoma National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism, 2. 2019 - Event 201, conducted by the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation & 3. Urban Outbreak 2019, conducted by the Naval War College and some 50+ "experts".)

Congregation in masks First, they asked you to wear the mask and many thought, "oh well, it's no big deal; besides, they said it was only for a short time." But it's been well over a year and still over 90% of the population is wearing them even though the overwhelming science has shown that it doesn't provide any benefit. To the contrary, they insomuch admit it but they say, "wear it anyway!" With no pun intended, now they rub it in your face to say just one mask isn't enough. You must wear two, even three, four, and Lord Fauci is saying: well, maybe five might not hurt. Just recently, a study was done of children's masks and what they found when microscopically examined is enough to scare any parent into burning them, immediately—or should.

I am appalled to see how many have been deceived by this lie—grown men and women walking along in the scorching sun with it pulled up to their eyes, driving by themselves at 80 mph down an LA freeway. Jesus forewarned us that many would fall prey to a great deception in the end. Through the many years and throughout my studies I often wondered what would be that "Great Deception" in the last days that would lead astray an entire world. A clue was left for us in His Word. There can be no doubt now. We see it manifested every day as we walk among those who have been--masks, shots, "social distancing", church closures and all the many other anti-human acts they brain-wash the masses with.

The Book of Revelation warns us that big pharma (Greek for sorceries) will be the single greatest avenue by which the earth will be deceived thus setting the stage for the Antichrist to step forward as a "savior". Make no mistake about it, this incremental deception—first the mask, then the shot(s), then...?—asks you to surrender your will to a power other than that of yours or of God. It is satanic. It is the same choice, and great deception, in the beginning with Adam and his wife. You surrender your sovereignty?, your body is no longer yours. Let me ask you here this profound question posed by Jesus Himself: For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? (Mt.16:25-26) Never before has this verse had greater meaning. Death all around and they promise life if...if you surrender to their conditions. NO! the Christian must say. NO! I will not surrender my body that has already been given to God as a sacrifice. It is holy. (Rom.12:1-2) It is a sacrilige they ask of you. NO! My body is no longer mine to surrender to your shot.

Turns out, that small choice to wear the mask isn't so small after all. Now they tell you you must have the "shots(s)". The mark surely is not far behind. Don't you see the incremental steps Satan puts before us to ease us into full compliance? They've even told us as much. Study their writings. Study their words. You owe it to yourself and those you love, just say NO! Yes, it will cost you. Already has many, even their life. But they died with their soul intact. They overcame.

Bill Gates' vaccine When it comes to matters of faith, it is eternally crucial we get these choices right because there may be no coming back from them. But I'm wondering. For many, is it already too late? With well over 50% of Americans now having been "vaccinated", as reported, 80% in some states, enough research has come in to cause many top leading scientists to raise the alarm. The vaccine is killing more than Covid. Consequently, it may be too late for those who have been deceived by corrupt officials and ignorant and Biblically incompetent pastors. But this is only the beginning.

Those same scientists, who have studied at length the design and complications of these "shots"—the vaccine pushers admit they are not vaccines—in increasing numbers are telling us, some without doubt, millions are going to die within the next 2 years. Think about that for a moment. You likely know someone who has already taken the "shot." Or, unfortunately, you may have yourself. If you or your loved one is one of these, seek expert medical help. Many are working tirelessly to discover ways to mitigate the damage, and death, that will come.

At first, Satan's steps for submission and compliance seem innocuous and incremental. For many, the choice is not very certain and some plunge headlong ahead hoping they are making the right one. But again, enough evidence and experience is mounting now that it should become quite apparent to one who keeps an open mind that the choice made, just as with the mask, was the wrong choice. We can actually see no good is coming of it. Each day the tragedies mount. Countries are banning them. Manufacturers are even pulling them. But yet, here in America, it's full steam ahead by the authoritarians—be damned the science. Even President Trump, to my disappointment, continues to vigorously push them—although I do understand his political reason for doing so.

Now they tell us to take their vaccine even though they admit it won't keep us from getting COVID. Take it anyway, they insist. Buying the lie, people don the mask. They stand in long lines to take the shot without even knowing, or caring, what it contains.

So, at this point, we are left with many troubling questions. Where is it going to end for you—when you say they have gone too far? When is it going to end for you? When and what is going to be your choice? Have you already made it? What will be the long-term consequences of your choice? What will be your fate if you go along? What will be your future if you don't resist? These all need to be considered because the choice is grave.

The path ahead is becoming much clearer today than it was just over a year ago. Choose carefully, my friend, for God is not the author of confusion. Seek and know His will for your life in these last troublesome days. Don't fall prey to the Great Lie, the Great Deception. At all cost, keep yourself pure as the Bride of Christ. DO NOT yoke yourself to another.

Finally, as encouragement, see what the Bible says is promised to those who overcome. Think of these when Satan casts his darkness over your soul. This is how you overcome—faith, faith in His promises. Learn them. Know them. For they will strengthen you in those times. And remember, Satan is the Father of Lies!

II. SCRIPTURAL STUDY.
B.  THE SHEPHERD'S CALL.   10:19-42
  1. This simple statement that His sheep will hear His voice, when found, carries with it certain profound implications. It is the source of which men for centuries have splintered in the view of Christ's call to a universal world. It is not one this current study needs to address. We will simply say of those who are not His, that they are not so because of the condition of their own heart and ears, and the choice they make to remain in their own blindness caused by the Deceiver, as with Eve (and Adam).
  2. For these reasons, and others, these rulers do not hear His call, therefore, they are not His; but, He has come to take from among them those who are.

Think On This

Are You Out Of Your Mind
Are You Out Of Your Mind
Isaiah 55:8,9 - (NAS)
  1. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
  2. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Over the years when pressed into service for others in Jesus' name beyond your own human comfort zone, into a realm that seemed to defy all logic and understanding, have you often wondered if you had reached the limits of your sanity? You know you would not have chosen that particular path for that specific need of another if you were in your right mind. You think to yourself: What was I thinking? You may have had others who knew you best question your thoughts and actions, even saying to you: Are you out of your mind? You agreed. You did feel deep within this wasn't the course any one in their right mind might have chosen—the things you are called to do for or speak to another. However, there was no denying in your spirit by Whom you were being led! As you continued obediently in faith, you may have had to defend your actions to others by expressing your unconcern of their thoughts and attitudes toward you because of their lack of understanding where God had placed you.

At this point, you may have had thoughts of the similarities of your experience and Job's experience with his three friends who could not understand what he was experiencing in his time. Never before had you more understanding and greater sympathy for his situation. You conclude your friends mean well but are not in the throes of the experience and anointing of your unique calling for this moment. You do not judge. You know, you just know, you must press on until He has done with you in the matter. Your obedience is required and His yoke and Joy remaineth upon you. This is undeniable to you. As much as you may desire and try, you will never be able to convince your friends to understand. Nor should you. Nor can they. This is something God has called you to do in quiet solitude and devotion to Him. Jesus asked us never to do our alms to Him for others to see. Greater will be your reward in heaven when He alone recognizes in total what you have done in private and personal for Him (Mt.6:4). Though your actions may be seen openly because of the nature of your service, you and He alone know this you do for Him, in His name. You have come to the point in surrender to Him where His recognition is all the recognition you seek. At times, even those you serve may seem to resent your service or at the least you may feel you are being used. It matters not when you know you have both His blessing and anointing for what you do. The human nature and reasoning would say: enough! and walk away. But you are no longer listening with the human ear and applying human logic.

Bible Summaries

Romans Chapter Summary

The following is taken from the Book of New Testament Summaries.

Chapter
  1. (A.D.57?) [The "Gospel of God" and "His Son" (1:1,9) as seen and written by Paul to Roman Christians (1:7): to let them know he knew of their work and faith (1:8), that he was coming there shortly (1:10; 15:24), and to have on file in Rome, the capital of the world, a record of the Gospel of God through Jesus Christ. 1:15] Paul introduces himself by listing his credentials credible for his writing. First he identifies his position in ministry: a servant; second, his calling: an Apostle; and thirdly, his purpose: to declare the message of the Gospel of God. (NOTICE: Nowhere does he list his earthly achievements as qualifications for writing or speaking: Phd's in law; his denomination affiliations: a Pharisee, etc. He is first and lastly a servant of Christ in the proclamation of the message of God that there be no room for worldly human boasting! See II Cor.10:7-18; Ph.3:3-8. Therefore, he is ready (1:15), willing ( I Th.2:8), and able ( II Co.3:4-6) to preach God's Gospel to whomever called, at present in writing to Rome!) He salutes them, commends their much publicized faith, expresses his longing to see them that he might impart to them some spiritual gift, together be edified, and finally, clearly teach that the fruit of the gospel is God's righteousness established and lived out in man. All men are seen at one point standing under the shadow of God's impending wrath because of his own ungodliness. It is each's individual decision whether one remains so. Just as there are specific steps to be taken toward God, coming under His umbrella of saving grace, there are successive steps away from Him, putting one in final jeopardy of His irrevocable judgment (1:21,23,25,32): (1) They became indifferent to God (failed to glorify Him), (2) therefore, they became ungrateful to Him (failed to be thankful), (3) thus they became conceited (vain in their own imaginations), (4) now having no need of Him, they omitted Him from their lives (worshipped the product of their own hands), and finally, (5) changed His truth into a lie! This one will be given over to do those things naturally produced from within a wicked heart: all manner of despicable sin arising from eventual unnatural affections, having gone so far from God (His knowledge, truth, and wisdom), filled (in total) with unrighteousness. The end of this man is both logical and inevitable. (All of the above is not only applicable to the individual, but to a nation as well, as seen with Israel of old and within any nation in decline.)
  2. Since all men stand accused, guilty, and condemned before His Bench, God alone is holy enough to be judge. Therefore, no man has the right to sit in judgment of another, no matter his level of righteousness attained nor degree of works done! Both Jew and Gentile stand alike on equal footing in His Court. His Law is blind: it can see only the sin and not the sinner, thus pointing to the guilty, irrespective of his earthly origin or achievements. Because God is just, His judgment is just. He will separate the wheat from the chaff at the appropriate time, after each has his own period of possible repentance and being wooed by God's freely given loving goodness, seeing in his hard heart his own guilt and finally throwing himself at the mercy of His grace. Those who observe to do His Law from a heart softened by Him will be spared His wrath. So, be careful not to judge another, but also in your attempts to teach others His Law as you have been taught. See that your own life reflects it, that His name be highly honored among all men, especially by the unbeliever. The Law kept only outwardly without the heart ever receiving it, is vain, but the one who has his heart spiritually quickened by God when His Law is received within, will be highly praised by Him, whether Jew or Gentile.
  3. Paul now asks what advantage then is outward circumcision, or profit to the ceremonial Jew? Certainly there were unbelievers (uncircumcised in heart) among them, but this alone does not negate the faith and purpose of the others who believed. To them was committed the oracles of God for the benefit of all men, to be instructed in His ways that righteousness might come to all, not only to the Jew (though first), but to the Gentile world as well. Clearly, then, it is seen that all stand guilty before a righteous judge with none being justified by the Law, only condemned by it, everyone having violated it. Whether in some small point, or in totality, it is broken! None are righteous, not one! The most lawful and unlawful both stand condemned, for both are guilty on some point. No amount of man's own righteousness (right doing) will cover his personal violations. Man's violations (sin), no matter how few or small, are larger than any amount of works he could do in ten lifetimes, unable to be used as a cover or for mitigating circumstances to set him free. One dot of sin is sufficient to render any man guilty to the extreme of offsetting a lifetime of good works! ( Ecc.10:1) Therefore, no amount of works is capable of negating man's penalty or excusing him from the Law's violation. Now having sufficiently made the case for every man's guilt (a sinner), and impossibility for any man to work off his own sentence to be set free, Paul pivots in 3:21 to declare the grace of God and the hope for man. He has shown us our unrighteousness; he now teaches the provision God Himself has made for our righteousness that we might go free—Faith in Jesus Christ who served our sentence perfectly, now offering pardon. Guilty? Yes, all, but freely pardoned through acceptance of His work done for us! So righteousness comes not by the Law, but through faith, not just blind faith, but faith in Jesus Christ. Why Him? Because no other paid the required penalty to appease an offended God who might consider and grant us grace as we stand by His successful Son's side as He pleads now for our pardon! God Himself has done the work (3:25), and Christ has declared, it is finished! ( Jn.17:4; 19:30) Hence, three consequences arise from faith in Christ: (1) Boasting in works is excluded (vs.27), (2) God is for all men, Jew and Gentile (vs.29), and (3) its work (vs.31). So, because justified to go away free, yet not as his own, rather now a servant of Christ who bought him with a price—justified not by your own works, but by faith in the works of Christ!

How The Megachurch
Destroyed Christianity

The consequences of the magnitude of such a broad scale world-wide implementation of a "new church model" cannot be ignored. It must be examined by the serious Bible student and Christian! It must be looked at in light of Bible prophecy. We must heed the warnings of both Jesus' own words when He walked the earth and those inspired by the Holy Spirit written later for our advantage in alertness of end-time events and trends. Not to do so would be perilous. So, I have prayerfully written 5 articles on this demonic phenonemonen with hopes they will help you to understand how serious this modern attack is on the true church of Christ - Articles on the Modern Church.
5 Articles on Modern Church
Has church been getting you down lately? Do you have more questions than answers about the major shift in your experiences in worship, in the objects, music, and even the sermons? We may be able to help.
Know first, you are not alone! More people are awaking to a deceptive practice that began years ago. In addition, we have put together 5 articles to try and answer some of those questions and help with your understanding. The first are more practical in nature as they relate to your questions. However, the 5th is more specific in identifying a major factor behind the changes you are experiencing. We hope this will not be the end of your exploration of this growing cancer on the church. If you're fine with it, we wish you the best but some of us have not nor will buy into it.
