Is the Daniel Mystery being Revealed?

Why are people looking for the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail when we have a much more important piece of the Divine puzzle right in front of us. We have billions of Bibles throughout this earth with inscribed “divine keys” that can help the avid student unlock amazing mysteries that are being unveiled in our time. The most important puzzle piece and key are found in the 9th Chapter of the Book of Daniel.

The mighty king Cyrus announced in his first year of consolidated power that he would bless Israel by returning them to their homeland. Cyrus, kind of Persia, announces to the Jews, “All the kingdoms of the earth the Lord God of Heaven has given me, and He has commanded me to build him a house in Jerusalem which is in Judah.” Cyrus who had defeated the Babylonians and had taken the Israelites captive, would now help this captive nation return and worship in their homeland. Never in history had a victorious conqueror set a priority to help his captives go free and form a nation. Seventy years earlier the prophet Jeremiah warned the nation of Israel that they would be taken captive for a total of 70 years for their transgressions. These transgressions relate to the nations failure to honor the Sabbath year unto which every debt by every person was to be forgiven. For 490 years they had failed to honor this divine command given by God through Moses in the wilderness. A period of 490 years is composed of 70 Sabbath years. When those 70 years had expired, God would give the command to let them return.

The Cyrus declaration runs parallel to Trump’s announcement in December of 2017, after his victory in the elections. Trump announced that he would move the American Embassy to Jerusalem and thus legally mark Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. In the eyes of many Jews in Israel Trump had become the new Cyrus. Jerusalem had been captured by the Ottomans and held by them for 400 years until finally liberated by the British General Allenby.  Then 1917, Lord Balfour, a Christian, set in motion a series of events that set aside a large portion of land for the Jews in the land of Palestine. Many Jews moved to the land but it was only in 1947 when President Truman declared his support for the formation of a new nation called Israel. The nation was approved by the league of Nations and Israel became a nation in 1947-48. 70 years later Trump becomes President, a man who was born in the time of Truman who was so touched by the Jewish cause that he declared in his tears that “I am the new Cyrus.” Here you have two American Presidents who carry on the Kingly power of Cyrus to announce Israel’s Holy Prophetic ownership of God’s city of Jerusalem.

The number 70 comes into play again in the 9th Chapter of Daniel, when Gabriel announces to Daniel the prophetic 70-sevens countdown that would begin at the next announcement of a Persian leader. This leader was Artaxerxes, who in 457 BC, declared that he would help Israel rebuild not only the Temple but also the walls of Jerusalem – thus establishing the new city. Notice that it is not just the number 70 but again the combination 70 X 7 or seventy sevens equaling 490 years. Amazing that God generated this special moment bracketed by two 70- Sevens Prophetic periods! Gabriel explains to Daniel the amazing thing that will happen during this period; the birth, introduction, and “cutting off” of the promised Messiah! Just as God promised, Jesus the Messiah appears on the scene in an official way at the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem fulfilling this remarkable countdown laid down by Gabriel, at the perfect time. This should get your attention. God is weaving a perfect promise. All this is explained in detail in my book Cosmic Crossroad Countdown.

Note that Gabriel appears to Daniel at the time of “the final sacrifice.” So why are we told this? Probably because God wants us to know that he is shaping history with an intricate pattern. For we know that Jesus Christ was the “final sacrifice” who also died at the 3 P.M. hour. Through the Prophet Zechariah God states that he will make Jerusalem “ a cup that will make all the nations tremble.” He has indeed done this even in our time as most nations have refused to recognize Jerusalem as being Israel’s capital. Pundits were declaring that a war would start and condemnations of all kinds were spewed out by the Arab countries and by the UN.  Israel has received more declarations of condemnation from the UN than all the evil, corrupt nations of the world combined!

Now we know that Daniel was the chief Magi in the Babylonian/Persian era and therefore his students would remember all the methods that God imparted to Daniel on how to discern and observe the time and place of any divine sign. That sign was the Bethlehem Star that may have been an exploding star in the “womb” of the constellation Virgo. This Virgo-Leo combination with Drago the dragon sitting above waiting for the birth is explained in my book and stated in Revelation 12: 1-4 in the Bible. So Daniel connects us to both the first and 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ. The 70 weeks have not been fulfilled, for a final week of 7 years has yet to happen. This final week of 7 years will happen soon to fulfill the pattern and complete the tapestry that God has set before us. What else can we discern from Daniel that may help us?

We know that the first 69 sevens or 483 years have taken place and led to very day that Jesus entered Jerusalem on the fowl of a donkey. Why did God separate these last 7 years? Obviously he has a reason which we cannot perceive completely. My thought is that God is giving mankind every opportunity to turn to Him and repent. He is very patient and has already added on nearly 2000 years. He promised the Jews that they would return to their land and they did in 3 important stages: 1917 the Balfour Agreement open a big door ; 1948 opened the door even wider with the formation of the nation of Israel; 1967 the door to Jerusalem was opened when the Jews took control of the Temple Mount; and in 2017 the legal status of Jerusalem was proclaimed by the most powerful leader of the most influential “empire” of our time the President of America. Now understand that 2017 also marked the 70th year of the formation of the nation; the 50th year (Jubilee) of the liberation of Jerusalem from Islamic control; and the 100th year of the liberation of the Promised Land from the Ottoman Empire!

Other Amazing Observations: 1) During the 1967 battle for the Temple Mount the some of the Jewish soldiers were surprised to see a rabbi among them. This rabbi blew the shofar celebrating the victory and his name was Goren which in Hebrew means “Threshing floor.” If you remember it was David who first purchased the Temple Mount from the owner of its threshing floor. And if you also remember it was Jesus who called himself the Bread of life, who was born in the city of Bread, Bethlehem. He broke bread with his disciples and reminds us at each Lord’s Supper that his body was given up for us as we eat the “bread of life.” Now realize that no shofar was blown when the President of the U.S. legalized the Jewish capital of Jerusalem- but note that his name is “TRUMP” – so in God’s way his voice and declaration was the “trump” that declared God’s promise fulfilled!

2) General Allenby’s declaration of victory over the Ottoman control of Palestine occurred in the first week of December. This was also true of Truman’s declaration and of Trumps declaration. Why this pattern? Are there other patterns that can help us understand what is about to happen?

3) On the Jubilee year the trumpet is sounded and the land is returned to the original owner. 1917 was a Jubilee year and the land was returned to its original owner: God’s people. In 1967 a Jubilee year, Jerusalem was returned to its original owner: God’s people. In 2017 another Jubilee year, the legal status of God’s people over the city of Jerusalem was guaranteed by the leading power in the world.

The Last Sign —like the pillars of His Covenant

What is the last sign that Jesus speaks of related to the end times in Matthew 24? I can pretty well guarantee you that you’re not going to guess it since most people will say it’s the Rebellion or it’s the Abomination of Desolation, but “No,” those are not it. In order to know what it is read Matthew 24:14. That last sign is the Gospel being preached throughout the world- and guess what? God is having to get the Gospel out into the hearts of man, since the church is failing to a great degree. “Yes,” we have missionaries preaching in many different countries and some are writing the Bible in the language of the people and others are sacrificing their lives, but  the vast majority of the “lost” people are not comprehending the Gospel. And it’s not that the Gospel isn’t  preached, it’s that the ears of the world are not opening.  Americans and many others are just too comfortable with their sin.

So how does God open their ears? God is trying to tell us how, and this is why we are seeing the convulsions, the labor pains, and all the other extreme events and weather conditions.  God gets people’s attention through trial and tribulation, so don’t think that God does not bring storms or God does not bring difficulty for people.  This is God’s most effective way to get peoples attention in the world with cold or lukewarm hearts.   This is one of the few ways that God can get people on their knees to repent and seek Him with all their heart and mind.

The church is weak because of man centered theology and administration.  A good example is the concept of Replacement Theology which is becoming very popular.  This concept is what the anti-Semite who killed the Jews in Pittsburgh holds to.  There is great error in this system of belief.  The church has not replaced Israel.  God still loves Israel and has fulfilled his promise to bring the Jews back to His Land and to Jerusalem.  Hebrew is the only “dead” language that has now become alive and is the spoken language of this nation that God guided into existence.  Just as in Hosea, God has not divorced Israel and is still married to His rebellious people who turned their back on Him.  He has preserved a remnant that will continue onto the spiritual Promised Land of heaven.  Even today there are thousands of Jews who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior.

The church is also weak because most members spend more time in the world and in the world system of television, games, sports, and music than they do in church and in the Word of God.  Television is Satan’s most effective way to draw people into the Lie that he is spreading.  Many of those attending church spend more time thinking about the next football game or the next chore than they do about the message they just heard from the pulpit.

Another problem are the “teachers” themselves.  Many have been indoctrinated by Academia and are not led by the Spirit.  The would rather go along with the agenda or with “peer review” than with God’s direction.  A good example is the stubborn determination to believe Saudi Arabia and Egypt when it comes to the location of the true Mt. Sinai.  Remember that Moses was directed by God to build both an altar and 12 pillars representing the tribes of the new nation.  Moses and Aaron were to sacrifice a bull (heifer) and sprinkle half the blood on the altar and half the blood on the 12 pillars.  This represents the Covenant that God established between Himself and the people!  These pillars and altar were immovable just as the Covenant was permanent.  So if you were looking for a site where the Israelites encamped you would look for remnants of both the altar and the pillars.  They have NOT found these in Egypt, but they found these in Arabia when Moller went and photographed a site that one of the princes asked him to examine.  He has the photographs to prove it, yet our stubborn, elitist archaeologists refuse to accept this very important FACT.  What is worse- our theologians have bought into the lie that Mt. Sinai is in Egypt-  this is the same delusion that God had to deal with in the past—-to get “Egypt” out of His people and out of the hearts of man.

The Israelites were delivered by God’s hand from Pharaoh. He carried them to safety through the Sinai desert and delivered them out of Egypt with the parting of the Red Sea. Has God delivered you, or have you been willing out of a tiny seed of faith to walk with him to witness His mighty mercy and deliverance. He will part the seas of fear and darkness. He will defeat the enemy of deadly habits. He will Light the way with the Word of God, and provide a covering during your day with His mighty Spirit. God will establish a Covenant with you–His blood has been shed for you and sprinkled on the Holy Altar and the Pillars of your soul.  God is patient when we whine or complain like the Israelites. He demonstrates divine solutions and doors to walk through. He is faithful and He is The Bread of Life – the eternal manna of the Wilderness. He is the Living Water – that bursts forth from the Rock. He Transforms, Heals, Nourishes, and Delivers. God desires for you to walk with Him to the Promised Land.

The Divine Watchmaker or the Divine Crapshooter?

God is Sovereign and  Established the Plan for Redemption for Us and the Fallen Creation.  Bread and Blood cover both Grace and Redemption.

Jesus Christ called himself “The Bread of Life” and by no coincidence He was born in the “City of Bread,” Bethlehem. He was born in a manger which means “table” or table of bread. He would feed the thousands with just a few loaves like “the manna” from heaven. Later he would break bread with his disciples and tell them to remember the Lord’s Supper – “take this bread – this is my body sacrificed for you, and drink of this cup- this is my blood-shed for you.”

The Lord’s Supper is more than a metaphor of Life in Christ redeemed by His blood and fed by His Word. It ties together His-Story, from Adam and Eve & Original Sin; to Abel and man’s first sacrifice for sin; to Abraham & God’s Unconditional sacrifice; to Isaac who was the obedient lamb carrying his wood up Mt. Moriah; to Jacob’s son Joseph who was sold as a slave and thrown into a prison saving drought stricken nations of the world as God answered Joseph’s “Sheaths of grain” dream; and to David who purchased the wheat “threshing floor” in Jerusalem to make the grain and Burnt offerings. In the “House of the Lord” many more Blood Offerings would be made and the Temple Shewbread shared.

The baby Jesus, mankind’s divine Bread, is the seed of Abraham, the Bread of Life, and the Lamb of God, who fulfills all those sacrifices – becoming the Perfect Sacrifice, the propitiation for sin to ALL who believe and trust in Him. He is the Eternal Bread of Life that sustains us and the everlasting Living Water that refreshes. He fulfilled Prophecy and the Promise in His-Story, transferring the blessings of Abraham & Israel to all people. That was just the beginning of His-Amazingly Wonderful-Story. It continues in every believer and follower. He takes us out of slavery and the slave mentality to addictions, to self gratification, pride, bitterness, and the past. He gives us new beginnings and makes us His son. None of those things in the past own you for are set free by the Blood of Jesus who Paid the price and Redeemed you.

That is the True Christmas Story! The Divine Watchmaker is in total control creating life as we know it and determining the course of events in his Time. But the fool says there is no God. The fool also says that this incredibly complex creation around us happened by chance and was created from nothing. The evolutionist has declared war on God and believes that man is intrinsically good as he evolves into a more perfect being through mutations and chance.

Those who try to fit God into this picture would in essence demand that God is a “Divine Crapshooter” who just waits for change to happen. That is like claiming that a Rembrandt was made by a brush blowing in the wind or To Kill a Mockingbird was conceived by an errant typewriter with painter and author standing by and waiting for new creations to happen.  Every living thing around us is shaped and beautifully designed by a much more sophisticated language called DNA. That sophistication requires a Divine Watchmaker who has a Purpose & a Plan.

Plain observation tells us man is depraved and along with all creation is falling and failing in what true Science calls Entropy – the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. Evolution is lunacy wrapped in the cloak of science. It might have been believable 25 years ago, but now with our advancing knowledge of hot planetary moons that should be frozen solid, and dinosaur bones filled with elastic viable tissue and cells where any CSI expert would expect empty space, the truth is out for even the 5th grader to grasp. The sad thing is Fake Science has now turned into Fake News and Fake Learning to the point we have totally dumbed-down our new generations! There is only one Truth and that is in God who is the source of everything and orders events in history to fulfill His purpose and plan.

The War on the Nature of Man: The World vs. God

The War on the Nature of Man: The World vs. God

This war has become a war against God and is permeating even politics. The youthful brain has been brainwashed by Academia into believing that man is basically good. Ironically many of them ignorantly illustrate this by the accomplishments of men and women of faith! The battle ground has therefore been distorted and manipulated by these sorcerers of material holiness and human goodness. To them the material world is either imbued with a divine beauty and perfection, or it is a sacred right for it to have a happy and perfect existence without man’s footprint. They believe that man was born good and is by nature good unless he or she is deceived by religion or other ideology that centers on Jesus Christ or the Christian church. This should give everyone pause, for we can see how the great delusion will easily fall on mankind. We are already seeing its ugly head rise in American politics and the world arena.

Ironically the philosophy of evolution is a sister myth embed in the school systems throughout the world. Together they undermine the concept of sin and depravity of the human soul. Evolution does not care at all about the spirit and soul of any part of creation, for it centers simply on survival of the fittest. Power, control, and strength are at its core. Therefore work and struggle are stepping stones to survival and the material salvation. This is antithetical to what Jesus said in his very first declaration of his ministry: Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Mat 11:28-30).

Jesus Christ promises to take the yoke of WORK Mentality off your shoulder and the burden of Performance For Acceptance or Control for survival. He is our Salvation. The purpose for His Sacrifice was to defeat sin. Yes, His mission was to transform us so that we might have His Righteousness. By dying with Christ (in a spiritual sense) we are dying to sin and being reborn in His Righteousness. God is real, Jesus Christ is the Son of God or God Incarnate, and Sin makes us all depraved. We are not born good and we are not good in our own right. Christianity is the only religion where God comes down for you, to be with you and have a relationship with you that brings peace- not a feeling of peace but a deep powerful peace based on Truth.

Arise and Shine The LORD is come

Arise, and Shine The LORD is come…. from Isaiah 60:1. I painted this work about 10 years ago as the Lord worked in my Heart during a dark time and I began the painting in that lower right area as you look at the painting. It shows the great Division coming and the Rebellion happening in society as spoken about in Matthew 24 by Jesus himself and also by Paul in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3. Frankly I had no idea where the Holy Spirit was going to lead me in this painting. What you see are The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, hell on the left. The dark Sun and a symbolic Black Rain on the upper right and the Holy Spirit on the upper left and of course Jesus Christ in the middle who is the center of history and the center of creation and of everyone’s life whether they know it or not. What may not be as apparent is the path that leads to Jesus Christ and the other wide path that leads to hell.

Jesus died on the cross to free us from sin and to Deliver us from sin so that we might have life in righteousness…. So that we might be transformed and that is the symbolism in the light around the frame that you can’t see but that lights up at night… He is our Light and our Righteousness and as He said, “I am the door.”
Two other aspects of the painting that are little hard to see is the hand reaching down from heaven sowing the seeds of God’s Word and also Billy Graham in the 
upper right praying …It is prayer that will help us in this time because the church will go through some of these tribulations and trials ….it will not, however, be the Wrath of God.

The Cosmic Conflict continues as Satan tries to destroy the work and saving Spirit and Power of Jesus Christ.  Satan will fail as this painting Illustrates— Jesus like the Sun Rises to defeat the rebellion, the Anti-Christ, and Satan and his forces. The End of Days is approaching as we witness Iran, Russia, and Turkey join forces, the division in world with Christianity pitted on one side and the rest on the other, the rise of civil rebellion, the birth of the red heifer, and isolation of Israel since the recognition of Jerusalem as Gods city.

The Future of the Church

The world hates Christians as Jesus said it would. But there is another side to the story. As Paul states in both his letter to Timothy and to the Corinthians there are Christians that God is going to give up to Satan because of their sin. In I Timonthy 1:20 Paul turns over Alexander and Hymenaeus to Satan because they gave up the good fight for the Gospel even though they were Christians…Paul says, “I turn them over to Satan to be taught not to blasphemy.” In I Cor.5:5, Paul does the same thing and says, “Hand this man over to Satan, so that his sinful nature may be destroyed.”  Then in the book of I Corinthians 11, Paul, states, “Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy way will be guilty of sin against the body and blood of the Lord….(which most pastors never mentions)…For whoever eats and drinks without recognizing the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.  This is why many are sick and ill among you, and many have fallen asleep.”

During my early years as a believer God sent me over to Prestonwood Church where I was led to protest the celebration of Halloween, the worship of the pastor Billy Weber, and the actions of some of the leaders. They were rewarding some big donors who were divorcing their wives for “new” younger women. Ironically this is what brought Pastor Billy Weber down after he had affairs with 6 “attractive” women, and I was there in the whirlwind. Yet there were many blessings. I refused all rewards of leadership and eventually ran into Billy at Hillcrest church where he had been restored….and we shook hands in a friendly embrace just months before he died of a brain tumor. Now if Billy had lived, think how it would have hurt today’s church especially in the “Me Too” movement. As it went…Prestonwood moved to Carrollton and is now one of the biggest and strongest Baptist churches in the South.

And this draws attention to the church of today which may not be the church that God expects in this kingdom age drawing towards the End Times. My belief is that God is going to put the weak church of today through many tests and trials until it puts God and the Gospel first in its agenda and motivation. There are many churches including Prestonwood that are afraid to confront the congregation with the Stark Truth of the Word of God so as to humble the proud and stubborn minds. I would dare to guess that most members there and elsewhere still trust in evolution for the logic of their faith and thinking. When you do, you lose the concept of SIN and the need for repentance…after all there was no Garden of Eden, no Adam & Eve and No Original Sin. This is logic that stands on the lies of the world and the sands of time with foolish merchants of the gods of this world. This will continue until the leaders stand up in public for the Lord and for the Truth. Each person needs to recognize the depravity of man and the need for Christ. We are not inherently good-  no indeed, we are in complete and utter need of a Savior….and his name is Jesus Christ

“If we endure we will reign with Him (Jesus Christ), if we are faithless He will remain faithful”…..all those men died as believers. Even though they were temporarily given over to Satan.

New Book

I am in the production stages of a new book that will save readers a lot of money.  This is not a finance book, but is an expose’ and exploration in Dentistry.  The title will probably be:  Dentistry  Xplored: Protecting You, Your Smile, and Your Pocket.   Or substitute the word pocket for wallet. Which one do you like the best.  Leave me a response on this site or on facebook under : Cosmic Crossroad Countdown.

The Purpose is to help others explore the depth of the Universe through the Word of God and common sense observation. Read the exciting book: Cosmic Crossroad Countdown: The Fig Tree & the Prophetic Generation….the Mystery and the Wheels of Time will be revealed by Signs, History, Testimonies, and the Fig Tree Parable that Jesus shared just before His death.

Here is a pic that will be included in the book Dentistry Xposed: This illustrates the detail work that I enjoy doing as both an artist and a dentist. 

The book will reveal truths in the science and art of dentistry.  It will also reveal areas in dentistry that are being compromised by marketing, lies, and misleading information. It is applicable to dentistry throughout the world and I guarantee that this book will save you money.

 

Book Promo: Cosmic Crossroad Countdown

 

Even in a great Wilderness the birds of the air are taken care of.  Great Love invites great tests with New Beginnings in life.  Are you ready for the challenge?  This book brings light into the fog of the mind and heart, and into the obscurity of history and the present.  “Seeing, they do not see,” is a warning for all of us.  Are you and I are being tested by hands beyond our world for our own good?  Why now and why so much turmoil?  Do the answers lie in the mysteries of the “Prophetic Generations” and “Wheels of Time,” or in a mysterious Fig Tree and “Wilderness Experience?”  Do they point to a deeper truth that we need to grasp before it is too late?

Thank you for your interest in this journey as you join me in a quest for answers to many divine footprints and signs in this time and age.  There is a proverb that states, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding, acknowledge him in all that you do, and he will make your path straight…”  Are you willing to allow God to speak to you as never before?  Just as God used Daniel and the Bethlehem Star to point to His first coming, does it not make sense that He will use Daniel’s prophecy and the stars to point to His 2nd Coming? Why, in the wilderness, did God command the tribes of Israel to align themselves into 4 groups of 3 tribes with the Levites encamped around the Tabernacle? Was there a purpose to having them align only along the four cardinal points?  During the Mount of Olive discourse on the End of the Age, and right before going to the cross, why did Jesus focus on a mysterious Fig Tree lesson? And why have the answers to these “riddles” alluded the theologian?

Five years ago, a friend and I, started a ministry called, Answers on the Rock, where we share the Gospel and give away free Bibles, Lemonade, Christian books, and answers to tough questions. A new believer asked me to explain the Fig tree lessons, and as I did, God spoke to my heart the answer that my mind had not totally processed. I had to write it down as the Spirit of God motivated me to compose this book.   My unique perspective and path have been that of an open-minded student of science & theology, artist & inventor, doctor/missionary, explorer/educator, and son of a diplomat.  Here is an example of how common-sense military strategy, and not a deep knowledge of theology helped fashion one important answer.  Theologians and Egyptian archaeologists tell us that the commander of the earth’s greatest Empire at that time, Egypt’s Pharaoh, chased the one-to three-million Israelites through the “Reed Lakes” just north of the Red Sea.  First, you cannot drown an entire army in a shallow lake!  But most important, no commander with swift chariots would chase his prey through a muddy lake when all that would be necessary, is to meet them at the other side and slay them there!  The Israelites were on foot and loaded down with their possessions, families, and herds.   So, are you ready for this journey into Truth, on a straight path to a deeper intimacy with God?

It is apparent that our world is twisting and turning in a major spiritual battle that is threatening every sector and landscape of the physical world. Nature, weather, and the earth are being affected.  Just as Jerusalem is the center of controversy and division worldwide, Washington has become the vortex for a storm of hostility.  Has a “Pandora’s box” of righteous judgment and curses been unleashed opening a door to fulfillment of God’s promises?  We are seeing a reversal of fortunes, where the proud and arrogant are being humbled.   Is this connected to the promise Jesus made related to the Fig Tree and “The Last Generation;” and what does the “Great Sign in the Stars” forebode?  Are we part of this Last Generation and do the mysterious “Wheels of Time” point to a COSMIC CROSSROAD COUNTDOWN?  Is our nation and the world being tested for the sake of the weak, the lost and the persecuted?  This book will investigate the evidence bringing light into many dark areas.

The Crossroad is also made of many amazing “testimonies,” and “mysteries” such as “Lost Time,” America’s “great Solar Eclipse”, “The Dead Sea Scrolls,” and the rebirth of Israel, which are intended to open eyes, and like a shining diamond in a “dark background” to get the attention of the world.  Will we learn from Noah’s time, when  the scoffers perished, or will the wheel of time repeat itself creating drastic “New Beginnings?” Order this book at Barnes & Noble or Amazon: and the E-Book for $4! The book can also be viewed at CosmicCrossroadCountdown.com or ToGodBtheGlory.org: and please leave a review at all sites.

Reviews and News for YOUR EYES

To all of you who have followed me on my writing adventure, and just to keep you up on my life:  I am writing a new book called Dentistry Exposed (with subtitle to be determined – “Helping You Make Healthy Decisions”)
To give you an idea of what others think of my style here are some reviews from COSMIC CROSSROAD COUNTDOWN: The Fig Tree & the Prophetic Generation
Reviews:
Boomersooner: (with 5 Stars): “A fantastic new book, very insightful and current about Biblical prophecy . Highly recommend it.”
L. Mathis (5 Stars): “This is a very thought provoking book. Read it, it makes you think about the world today and what may be our future.”
Dennis Kavanaugh (DTS graduate, Teacher, Missionary) 4 Stars: “The Cosmic Crossroad Countdown will draw you into the Word of God with a heart to understand more deeply what truths God wants to reveal to all who seek Him. Read it will a Bible next to you.”
Tracey Williams: (5 Stars); “Wow! What an incredible linkage between the astronomical events, history and Bible prophecy! In “Cosmic Crossroad Countdown”, Dr. Hofmann sheds light on the Wheels of Time, and how God’s hand has and is orchestrating the universe’s timeline from the beginning of creation to the present, and into the future – the signs are there for us to see just like Jesus prescribed in the parable of the Fig Tree. (In Mt 24:32-42 Jesus commanded us to know the parable of the Fig Tree.) He commanded us to learn the parable (v 32), then when you see the signs know that His is coming is near (v 33), and, therefore, to watch (v 42). As with the fig leaves signaling summer approaching, this book helps us discern the times and pay close attention to the events making global headlines signaling Christ’s second coming is nigh. A must read for anyone wanting to understand the times in light of Bible prophecy and be ready for His imminent return!”

The Greatest Battle – Twisted

It is apparent that our world is in a major spiritual battle threatening every sector and landscape. This could easily be the Greatest spiritual Battle of all time. The World and its people are at an epic crossroad where lies and truth are not only colliding, but are also being twisted to confuse the masses and sow discontent and rebellion. These twisted times are threatening the soul of our nation and the family. The fringes of insanity seem to characterize the news and many leaders such as Bishops declaring their power greater than God, or Congresswomen stoking violence against governmental staff, or the daily display of public perversion and disparity. Are we in twilight zone of self-destruction?
Just as Jerusalem has become the center of controversy and division in much of world politics, the administration in Washington has become the vortex for a storm of hostility. I am convinced that Trump is God’s man for this challenging time. As the name implies, God’s “trumpet” is being blown for all nations to know that a supernatural promise is being fulfilled. God’s plan is advancing at a rapid rate and the big question is, will His final promise to the Jews and to the church follow soon? As expected the enemy will try to thwart anything that God does here on earth. The spiritual battle has reached a new stage and will be intensified. The church and its believers must keep in prayer.
 
As I write this there are evil spirits, principalities, and dark forces working to divide our nation and every relationship that we have. This Spirit of evil works by controlling minds and sowing division not only in the political arena, but also in homes, churches, schools, and in every age group, race, and social status. Toxic emotions and thoughts are driving the fake news, the widespread social disorder, and the ever-increasing irrational behavior and violence. Uncompromising anger is being sown by once respected Newscasters, and by others who want to twist the truth to undermine authority in God, Government, and Family. Instead of allaying fear and doubt they are stoking more fear and confusion. Drugs, Sex exploitation, Sex Trafficking, pornography, gambling, gaming, and Hollywood’s poison are only adding fuel to the fire.
 
Satan and his demons are hard at work, and if you know of anyone with a mental illness, keep them in prayer. We are becoming a nation of stimulant driven zombies willing to follow any spirit that numbs us to the truth. Secular television and movies are not helping us. They are only hypnotizing and blinding people to a future demonic visitation. Satan and his minions are using escapism and horror to prepare the world for their invasion of “space”. This space is not outer-space, it is inner-space. It took God just a few weeks to get Israel out of Egypt, but it took 40 years to get the “Egyptian mentality” out of the Israelite.
 
We must keep our leaders and our law enforcement in prayer. This spreading darkness is weakening our nation and our resolve. It is opening us up to both a physical and a spiritual attack of much larger scale and consequences. Keep our armed forces, our missions, and intelligence gathering forces in your prayers. We are already seeing Congressional leaders promoting violence and others promising to disrupt our election process. I believe that the rebellion of Matthew 24 and II Thessalonians 2:3 is about to begin.
 
As described in my book, COSMIC CROSSROAD COUNTDOWN, a “Pandora’s Box” has been opened. We are seeing the rise and fall of the proud and rebellious. Extreme weather and other events mentioned above are also signs. This is part of His plan and in midst of these trials He will help us spread the Gospel; and one way is to give us encouraging signs. It is no coincidence that the Triple Crown winner was Justify, Justify, and then Justify. This reminds the world that Jesus Christ will win despite the odds. He has justified us through the cross and has defeated both sin and death. His sacrifice for our sin justifies us in the eyes of God. He has given us a picture of His rescue and sacrifice in the real-life drama of the 12 boys in the dark cave. One has already given up his life for the others. From that will come the rescue of the others. The whole world has been captivated by this massive rescue attempt that I predict will Glorify God in more ways than one. The number 12 is significant. In speaking to the flesh-fallen Corinthians, Paul wrote, “We are humans, but we don’t wage war as humans do. We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments.”
 
One of those destructive strongholds is the lie of evolution and another which is interconnected is the lie of “no life in the womb”. The idea of survival of the fittest contradicts everything that is good about the human struggle. They want us to believe that they support the innocent, yet they kill the most innocent. They claim tolerance yet they refuse honest debate, They claim the side of reason, yet good observation and logic proves them wrong. Read the Word and study with prayer the truth so as to understand and destroy those strongholds around you. “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Eph. 6:12.
The Truth is the world is against God and that is why we are seeing the broad uplifting of the LIE to counter God’s TRUTH. No city in the world is more deserving to be declared the capital of a nation than Jerusalem to be Israel’s Capital. The land grant and the promise is written in the eternal and supernatural Word of God. That is one important reason why Islam and much of the world is coming against Israel and Trump. Just remember that Alexander the Great, the man who conquered that entire part of the world did NOT conquer Jerusalem. He marched around it and left.
 
Hebrews 4:15-16, “For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. Therefore, let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
Jesus gave a warning to both the weak Christian and church, Luke 11:22, “But when someone stronger than he attacks him and overpowers him, he takes away from him all his armor on which he had relied and distributes his plunder.
