A World of Lies or the Lilies of Truth?

Jesus Christ has to be either a liar, a lunatic, or who he really said he is: GOD.

 

 

 

 

Yes, Jesus Christ showed himself to be God throughout his ministry and THAT is why the Jewish leadership felt that it was their duty to stop Him and kill him. In John 10:33, as they picked up stones to kill him, Jesus asks, “I have shone you many good works for which of these do you want to stone me”, and they said, “Because you a mere man claim to be God.” They saw him feed 5000 and then 4000 and were amused, they saw him raise the dead and heal the sick and were stunned, but when he drove out the demons they declared that he was the son of Satan. And so Jesus replies, “How can Satan cast out Satan?” To us and to the entire creation, He says, “I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever!” (Rev.1:17–18).
–
So need we ask, “How can such a powerful Truth and Person be denied when the evidence is so clear?” Jesus has already fulfilled over 300 prophecies from the Old Testament and will fulfill 2X more in His 2nd Coming! His resurrection was proof to all who had followed him that He indeed reigned over man’s greatest enemy = Death thus fulfilling his own prophecy – that He would raise from the grave in 3 days! In John 10:17-18, Jesus said, “I am laying down My life so I may take it up again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down on my own.” In response many Jews said, “He has a demon and He’s crazy!”

There is the investigative reporter by the name of Lee Strobel who after seeing his wife surrender to Jesus Christ and accept Him as Lord and Savior, desperately sought to prove the resurrection a myth! He is now author of many books including, “The Case for Christ”, “The Case for Easter”, “The Case for Faith”, & now “The Case for a Creator”. He had collected all the evidence and tried to make a courtroom like case against the resurrection. The evidence proved otherwise and what he had thought were Lies became Lilies of Truth!  Many other intellectuals including the well known CSI expert, J. Warner Wallace, author of Cold-Case Christianity and Josh McDowell author of Evidence Demands a Verdict, & More Than a Carpenter (with over 5 million printed) studied the evidence and also were convinced in their minds & convicted deep in their hearts of this Truth! The Word transformed them and they now preach the Truth of the Gospel throughout this earth! The tiniest seed can grow into a big tree of faith; likewise the Lily of the field that “resurrects” from the dead “ in all it’s beauty is more arrayed than the glory of Solomon.”

–
The problem is the vast majority of people are not only unwilling to seek the Truth, but are also afraid to discover and accept the truth – because it will prove them wrong and convict them of their own sin! Many of them would be shocked to learn that to have owned a Bible or to have gone to church, or to have a Christian parent or grandparent does NOT make them a Christian! As Jesus clearly illustrated in his parables of the sower, the seed, and the rich man – they have been distracted by the world, some seduced by wealth, others have had doubts planted by the wiles of the devil, but some fall away due to the simple cares of life! Often the most loving thing God can do is allow these “Prodigal Sons” to be severely strained and shaken in order to save them!

Do you think that Almighty God will exempt anyone from His commands and Covenants? Jesus who calls himself the “Word” says to us: “Abide in me and I will abide in you”, “Those I love, I reprove & discipline – therefore be zealous and repent”, “You are mistaken not understanding the scriptures nor the POWER of GOD”, “Everyone who acknowledges me before men – I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven, but whoever denies me before men- I will also deny him before my Father in heaven”! Jesus Christ, the Ancient of Days and The Lord of the Heavenly Army will be the Judge! Take careful note of the witness of the Apostles, the martyrs throughout time who die for their faith, the countless others who give selflessly for Christ- bringing healing to the sick and lost throughout this earth, & to the authors mentioned earlier; they are NOT crazy nor delusional! For instance they do not blow themselves up to kill the innocent!

LIFE is not going to get any easier for any of us as we grow older and more overwhelmed by a changing world! God has been very clear that He is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit and that He will return in the form of the reigning King of Kings, the Lion of Judah, and the Apha and the Omega to judge the earth and every soul that lives and has lived. One can quote many verses, but here is just one: “Judgment will take place at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with His powerful angels, taking vengeance with flaming fire on those who don’t know God and on those who don’t obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus“, II Thess.1:7-8.

God desires and aches for each of us to seek Him out with all our heart, mind, and soul! That is why He has given us so MUCH evidence and so MUCH opportunity for inspiration and observational experience. Have you not heard God shout to you in your pain or whisper to you in your joy? The Truth has been sitting on your table top, in inspirational music, classical literature, in the wonder of nature, in the majesty of the heavens, and in the faith of a child. They were put there as a testimony of who God is and How MUCH HE LOVES you and me! Just like a Good Father, He wants you to” know” him which implies to Love Him and Obey Him! So how can we know Him, if we do not respect, nor follow Him? And how can we know Him and follow Him, if we do not read His Word, seek and speak to Him in pray, or listen to His message?

Why do we spend so much time studying a world system with it’s lies, and so little time and effort studying what our Maker and Redeemer wants us to study and know? To know God is to Trust in Him, his Precepts, & his Promises! To know Him is to know both His Truth & His Love, gaining purpose for your life.  To know him is to know his Name and your true Identity! God says to us, “Anyone who calls upon the name of the LORD will be saved”, and Psalm 54:1, “Oh God, save me by your name and vindicate me by your power.”

To know Jesus Christ is to have the most powerful personal relationship one will ever choose to have – so that God can lead you to exceptional Truth.  Only He can free your mind from slavery to the world and its lies! Only He can open your heart to who He really is: Faithful and True, Good Shepherd, the Door, Savior, and Author and Finisher of our Faith.

The movie “La La Land” is about the consequences of making wrong choices. Life is indeed a series of choices & the biggest choice that anyone can make is to choose to believe and trust in Jesus Christ. Most other choices are just a distraction that God is trying to clear away from the path. Jesus warns, “Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads to LIFE, & few there be that find it”! Know that we are just specks in time & our eyes a particle of personal joy, but our soul is for eternity and linked to Heaven or to Hell!” The choice is ours alone – God does not send anyone to Hell. Despite God’s most clear and precise warnings many will still choose it! Make no mistake HELL is NO “La La Land” – it is a permanent separation from God and an eternal fiery pit that God originally designed for Satan and his angels!

When we think of eternity many people think of the stars and light years! The Genesis Truth is that “God fashioned two great lights- the larger light to shine during the day and the smaller one to shine during the night -as well as the stars”. In the book of Job written 1600 years before the Savior’s birth God says that, “He shakes the earth from its orbit, so that its foundations shudder… He alone spreads out the heavens, he walks on the waves of the sea. He created Bear, Orion, the Pleiades, and the southern constellations. He does great things that cannot be explained”-just as Jesus walked on water, restored the eyes of a man born blind & raised Himself from the grave!  By the way a great book to read on the constellations, why God created them, and named each star is  “Looking Up”.

So the Big Question is, do you want to believe a supernatural God or do you want to believe men in white robes who cannot explain why or how: 1) Earth is the only planet discovered with water -the essence of life- 326 million trillion gallons of it! 2) The moon is located at the perfect distance for both tidal effects and solar eclipses 3) Triton, the moon of Neptune, far from the heat of the sun, rotates backwards and has hot nitrogen geysers;  hence its internal heat cannot be billions of years old! 4) Uranus, Saturn, and Neptune have large magnetic fields which would have dissipated over time as earth has! 5) If earth began as a ball of fire, where did all the water come from? 6 ) If Venus was part of a big bang, why is it the only planet that spins backwards? 7) IOS a smaller moon has 9 active volcanoes and Europa has constant big geysers – both a long way from the sun, yet HOT!  8) Our moon had only centimeters of dust as predicted by a NASA Christian Space Scientist and is moving away one inch/year!  Less than a million years of shift would have made life impossible for plants, mammals & dinosaurs during moon eclipses and chaotic high tides!  9) Why have the billions of spiral galaxies not unwound from their perfect spiral shape over billions of years – as physics demands!  1000’s of other questions of this magnitude make the Big Bang and billions of years totally illogical and unsupported by observational science and math! 10) Do you really think that everything came from nothing?!! – This would be against entropy- or both Laws of Thermodynamics and everything empirically tested in science and illustrated in history!

One reason I travel the world is to see the extreme variety of plants and animals – for instance the Weta, and insect in New Zealand, that has “antifreeze” for blood so that it can survive frozen all winter long! Some of the ferns and “pine trees” that I got to see there are the same found in countless fossils! So it is a matter of who you have faith in! God who created the Lilies of the field or mankind which has lied throughout the ages?  Fossils form in just months at the hot spring in Yorkshire near the river Ned.  They show that it does not take long to fossilize the outer layers- just like the dinosaur bones that are fossilized on the outside, yet have blood cells, osteocytes, osteoblasts, and elastic tissue on the inside! There are presently over 150 cases of dinosaur, water-born animals, and bird fossil finds that have evidence of intact proteins with DNA – and thus they all have C14 that can be dated! If even a trace of C14 is present the tissue or cell cannot be older than 75,000  years!  Another incredible book to read is “Undenieable” by Douglas Axe who worked in the same lab as did Watson and Crick.  His studies show that protein enzymes, the building block of life, cannot be altered without causing cellular failure! This fact alone totally shoots down macro evolution.

“For it is by Faith through Grace that you have been saved, this is NOT of yourself- NOT of works, so that no one can boast, it is a Gift of God!”

The Ten Biggest Dental Lies and Controversies

I have been a dentist for 38 years and am putting my license on the line for the Truth.   Like almost every other level of business and government, dentistry has been compromised and the expense of the patient and ethics.  I am going to reveal some the deepest secrets that the public as a whole does not know.

I share this because my own brother and many friends have been compromised. I may die any day but I want this information to be part of my legacy.   I have fought for Truth for many years and have paid the price.   So this site will receive point after point exposing fraud and deceit in my own profession over the next many months.

 

 

Is the Jeze-Baal Spirit defeated?

Is the Jeze-Baal Spirit Defeated?
The eyes of America have become increasingly wicked, so the days of judgement are fast approaching.. Just as lies beget a liar a wicked leader breeds a wicked government with ever increasing wicked followers. This once proud and noble land has fallen to Baal-peor and its sensual indulgences. For half a century the blind have toyed with this ancient god of child sacrifice and now we are literally and figuratively ready to erect his gate from hell. With the help of white robed pseudo “scientists” and political hacks we will soon erect this door in New York city. How fitting it is that one of the patron “saints” of this “great Babylon” is now running to be leader of our great nation. Some say she is the spirit of Jezebel and her husband Bill the biblical figurehead who cowers at her venom.  I say the problem is much deeper and is not just connected to the Clintons!
For the last 50 years we have been losing the sacred ground and laying the ground work for the powers of darkness to take over. Our land is in a drought of righteousness with our church hamstrung by fear and pride. Many of our Christian leaders share in the worship of the creation vs the Creator. They are afraid to teach the Truth of Creation and God’s spoken Universe with the power of His Promise and Sacrifice. They are cowered by the fear of losing members and the power of Mammon! They fear man more than God, so each goes his or her own way doing what is evil in their own eyes. Even the seminaries are afraid to counter the world system of evolution and the worship of the creature! Now many saints are choosing the world’s idols and darkness over the Light of Life!
America’s Mount Carmel is soon to shake her to the roots. Judgement has already begun. It is no coincidence that throughout our nation “100 year floods” have happened and continue to happen while at the same time drought and fires plague huge areas. Earthquakes in very diverse places shock the complacent and new viruses surprise even the best scientists. Jezebel is rising and ushering in the demons of desire. Conflicts and riots have begun and will only continue to grow in intensity. The walls have fallen and the Trojan horse has been invited to participate. Our enemies and even our friends salivate at our demise. At one time they both respected us and admired our strength! Now we seem to be a moral and spiritual failure! Can we change course?
“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Th. 5:22-24. Are you ready for the Lord’s return and you who are of the “seed” are you ready for Elijah? Seriously the time is at hand and very few really comprehend it! The Middle East is on fire, the voice of the Martyrs cries out in ever increasing numbers, technology is designing anti-hacking gold bracelet tattoos, terror is spreading from continent to continent, nuclear blackmail is increasing in every direction, the United Nations is betraying the national rights of Israel, and the great armies of the world are gathering for battle nearby. Jesus warned, “And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet; For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows” Matt. 24:6-8
Have you forgotten history and how the wicked king Ahab and his even more wicked Queen Jezebel ruled Israel? The king wanted the vineyard of Naboth, but did not know how to get it. So he went to Jezebel who reminded him that he was king. She hired a bunch of scoundrels and paid them money to lie about Naboth accusing him of blasphemy against God. Her scheme set Naboth up for execution by a public stoning.  Our paid media seems to focused on destroying  American values? Are we in the midst of Jezebel-like manipulation and retribution against the “deplorable” church and family? Are we going to continue to follow lies and allow deceivers to dictate truth to our children? This is how Baal worship grew and prevailed and why evolution reigns today.  Hitler used “evolution” to promote his “supreme race” to kill the weak and different!  These are forces of darkness and principalities of evil that take away the sanctity of life from the unborn, and promote the survival of the strong and “beautiful” for the sake of pleasure, sensual desires, and convenience! They are the perfect example of the emerging “Jeze-Baal Spirit” overtaking the world and certain blind leaders.
The mountain top judgement that exposed the evil and failure of the Baal prophets is the same type of spotlight that God is using to expose the idol worship and culture failure of America.  God has raised up two Presidential candidates that in many ways represent the fallen state of America.  We are being tried and tested for our excessive materialism and greed, pride and perversion, and a growing general rebellion towards God.   The whole world is witness to this cultural implosion and the embarrassing election scandals.  We have become a snare to the innocent and gathering place for drugs and drug abusers, sexual experimentation and exploitation, and a gross deviant behavior blended with a toxic malice and corruption permeating every level of society.   God has warned us and we have been found wanting!  The testing is upon us, and the trials with Judgement could come soon if we do not turn to Jesus Christ who is the Door and Our Salvation.  He alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!

LIAR LIAR

LIAR, LIAR

Recently I have heard people call this the “Time of Lies” and the “Land of Lies”. A study recently concluded that the average person lies 200 times in one day! Another study concluded that on average the 3 candidates during the primaries lied 25% to 75% of the time! In my profession it has become a common practice to not only lie to patients in advertising, but also in the clinic itself! Oh, sure, these are not the usual bonafide in your face lies, but they are in face value, “Lies”! When a doctor says to the patient that he needs such and such because the x-ray or test suggests it, without doing the proper diligence, he or she is in essence lying. What is even more egregious are the lies that may not hurt the patient, but which do make the practice a lot of money on a daily basis!

I will give an example: Patient A came into my office last week with an apology and a frown saying that he had responded to another doctors “free exam and discounted x-ray ad”. He said that after they took a full set of x-rays, they would not clean his teeth! Instead a consultant sat down with him for a long time trying to convince him that he needed $1,826 worth of dental work discounted by his plan to only $856! They showed him on the x-rays how bone loss was causing periodontal disease, and that in order to stop the progression of disease he would need a very expensive 4 quadrants of deep cleaning done (which was an inflated charge!- note also that if just 3 or less teeth are involved per quadrant the code changes to a much lower fee).  I looked at his past x-rays and in his mouth and told him that the diagnosis was completely wrong and that he did not have any periodontal disease!  The bone loss was due to toothbrush erosion only!  They used the x-rays to scare him into thinking that the bone loss was due to disease not erosion!  The “shadow’ on the x-rays was not due to disease!  The average person would not know better! All the patient needed was a good tooth cleaning and check up, costing $108 in our office.  This is an example of what is happening on a daily basis throughout this country!  People are getting ripped off by people in “white coats” who know they are skipping on the truth!

God judged the earth because “everyone was doing what was right in their own eyes”.  The basis for deceit, slander, malice, and theft is lying.  I was recently listening to a pastor talking about the “lying spirit” in our society and  church (which will be discussed more later).   President Obama  stated that Islam has always played an important part in the making of our country. The fact is that the only significant association that our nation had with Islam was when Jefferson sent our navy to stop the Barbary Pirates from taking slaves and booty from merchant ships!  To the pirate and Islam it is good and justified to lie to the infidel!  Lying is not part of our ethical standards and never has been!

This brings up a serious problem: cultural assimilation.  We are embracing cultures more than ever and their ethics are different than ours.  Our tolerant society has made us more vulnerable to all sorts of lies. One very large religion and culture believes in and trusts in “millions” of gods!  How many lies do you think are embedded in their ethics and standards?   Healing remedies, child rearing, sexual interactions and other norms can easily be distorted and abused under the darkness of authoritarian controls! Mythical, ethnic, and religious dictates can be used to sanction child abuse, spousal abuse, social banishment, witchcraft and who knows what!  To the esteemed white robed Pharisees, who held their culture under bondage with many made up laws & traditions , Jesus said, “You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”

Some of the worst lies are those that blind the mind and harden the heart. Here are a couple that the Bible warns about: “A fool says in his heart there is no God”, and “Pride goeth before destruction”.  It is foolish and dangerous to lie to ourselves and to continue living in ignorance, self denial, and pride.  When you do, not only are you setting yourself up for judgment, but in that state of mind and heart you could fall into a quagmire of problems including poor health, divorce, poverty, crime and death!  Open your heart to the Truth: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and he will make your path straight”.

Even as a believer it’s so easy to persist in lying to ourselves concerning our bad habits whether it be smoking, drinking, drugs, laziness, procrastination, or junk food. Take note that each of those “bad habits” listed above in themselves embody “tons” of lies! There is a spiritual component- a contaminating darkness- that everyone should be aware of! Our lies along with other lies become part of our thinking and behavior to the point that we lie to skip work, to steal, to win an argument, or to win approval!  In time we can become isolated both physically and spiritually, growing in frustration, bitterness, anger, unforgiveness, distrust, and evil desires!   Then at the point of despair the hardened heart allows the fall and we say or do something that is regretful and foolish,  hurting ourselves and others. The consequences can be dire, playing into the hand’s of Satan! Jesus said, “that Satan has come to steal, kill, and destroy;  I have come that you might have Life; and that you might have it abundantly!”  Satan’s lies are like a lion waiting to pounce at any moment to undermine our credibility and our purpose!

Just as our body relates to the physical world our soul communicates with the spiritual world. Caught in between is our mind! You may not see it happening or coming, but when we lie and ignore our conscience the consequences will take a toll! When Satan lied to Adam and Eve, they rebelled and lost the “Spirit” or “Life of God” in them! God had told Adam that if he ate of the fruit he would die and this death in actuality was a spiritual death. The Word says, “The wages of sin is death!” Like Adam we are spiritually dead in sin! “But while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us”. This is how God demonstrates His love for us. Our Hope is in Jesus Christ and the work He did on the Cross! He paid the penalty so that we might have Life- the “Life of God” in the form of the Holy Spirit! The Word says, “For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive”. We are a new Creation in Christ, set free to be a light in the darkness, and to battle the world system that turns “the truth of God into a lie, and worship and serve the creature more than the Creator!”

Serious problems arise when the world’s lies infiltrate the church and are allowed to hide or grow!  We have witnessed many pastors who have fallen or have left the ministry.  If they had tapped into the Power of the Holy Spirit and sought the Righteousness of God with all their heart, mind, and soul, the lies of the flesh and the gates of Hell would not have prevailed!  The foundation of faith cracks when we allow the world system to dictate agendas, theology, the teaching by laymen, and the God given identity of the church itself!

For many years I was part of a church that one might classify as an “Emergent church” or a “Seeker Sensitive Church”.  Those titles by the way are “cop-outs” and only serve to create excuses for compromise!  Is worth effort and risk to reach out to the lost with lies?  For instance in these churches there is no effort to use good apologetics to teach the congregation the Truth about “6-Day Creation”! They do not want to create “controversy” even though the Bible is very clear that God’s greatest miracle was when He created the Universe.  That Miracle supports the fact that He continues His creation by: 1) creating us in the womb, 2) making us a new creation in Him, 3) and will create a new heaven and a new earth!

If you believe in evolution you will have to throw out “Original Sin” because “death” would have happened before the “Fall” and hence the penalty of sin would not be death.  If the penalty of sin is not death then the New Testament is a lie!  And just one lie undermines the entire Gospel and Satan wins!  Evolution and the “Old Earthers”, however, undermine a lot more, including the veracity of Noah’s flood and God’s Covenant with us.  God said that He would never “Flood the Earth” again! Old Earth scientists along with the evolutionists claim that Noah’s flood was only a “local flood” and that all those fossils that we see embedded in sedimentary rock were not caused by a world wide flood!  Hence every “local flood” that we have today is calling God a liar and the church would be complicit in that lie!  Just as with slander and deceit, a few good lies can spread and do a lot of damage to individuals and to the whole church!

 

FEAR to Fear

FEAR to Fear!

There is a calm in the air, but it is more than calmness,
A stillness reigns as if danger approaches,
A wait with a sense of dread and fear!
Have you noticed that the economy seems stale and each day trends with more caution and concern?  Everything we read seems to be fear-driven, including stock markets, commodities, merchandise sales, and the State of the Union.  We are afraid of identity theft, hacking, immigration, inflation, rising Fed rates, and the list goes on and on! The news is permeated with record floods and other storms in a wide range of places, and accelerating violence that seems to be spreading to many segments of society!  We are in a cadence of fear. Remember those movies where the lead character notices an abnormal stillness just before the enemy attacks? Europe went through many invasions from the Goths to the Huns to the Ottoman hoards and each time a dread permeated the air as fear moved the masses.   We seem to be in the calmness before the storm.  Even the earth seems to recognize this!   For we are seeing earthquakes, droughts, forest fires, deadly viruses, and active volcanoes in diverse places and closer to home!

We all know that fear has permeated the elections from top to bottom! How many Trump and Hillary signs have you seen in front lawns; most likely very few!  And the media love to use fear to stoke our attention on the environment, race issues, Zika, guns, and any threat to their pet causes!  And of course ISIS, terrorism, civil violence, drug epidemics, and deadly crime permeates both national and international news on a daily basis!  We seem to be a world at the brink of war. One author compares our present predicament to the Spanish Civil War which he says was a rehearsal for WWII involving the Germans and many weapons soon to be used against Poland.  Every major military or economic power is involved in the Middle East or in dealings with the rogue regime in North Korea! There are now more refugees worldwide and many more who have been martyred for just believing in Jesus Christ!  Fear is worldwide!  And the traditional war of nations has morphed into a global war of sects, cultures, & religions affecting everyone!

I like to think of myself as an authority on FEAR since I was consumed with fear even as a young child.  My personal pathology began when I was a 5 year old foreigner learning English, when one day my big brothers confided in me that what I saw on the talking box called “TV”, was real. That night I was sitting on my Dad’s lap, when the “Werewolf” movie came on and panned in on a stranger walking across a bridge at midnight. The face, blood, and teeth that soon covered the screen blew me into a world of nightmares and fear of the dark. For years I was consumed by this fear as it grew and spread into other areas of my daily life. I was unbearably shy and afraid to speak up in class. By God’s grace I had loving parents who were there for me. They saw that I led a gang of kids in my neighborhood and so did not suspect anything.  I had natural skills in dexterity, throwing, and fighting and so no one including my brothers suspected how vulnerable I was. My Dad, however taught me to swim by throwing me into the deep end of a pool, encouraging me to swim for my life!  And my older brother did his best to trap me into an unwinnable boxing match with a much bigger kid from outside our neighborhood!  At times I felt that I was fighting for survival!

It was only after a persistent FEAR of public speaking in class that my parents intervened to get me socially involved. They got me into sports. Swimming and cross country running gave me the fuel to keep going and not give up!  Ironically this managed fear served to keep me out of trouble and anything that smelled of evil.  I was the good kid who obeyed his parents!

Now if you believe in the principalities of evil and the powers of darkness there was something more that was notably unusual about my life. As hinted earlier, I did not grow up in America; instead I was raised in some of the most spiritually cursed nations of the world!  My dad worked for the State Department and so every two years we moved from one nation to the next!  I was born in the slave port of Fortaleza, Brazil where the Brazilian form of Voodoo was birthed.  I spoke only Portuguese when we then moved to Caracas, Venezuela (considered one of the hottest places in the world and also the home of the world’s most intense lightening strikes). We moved to Laredo, Texas, where I learned English and the art of throwing rocks very accurately; then to Persia (Iran) where I had to defend my life against an Islamic gang of kids by rapidly and accurately throwing rocks back at them after they cornered me! We then moved to Pasay City, Philippines (the areas poorest and most drug invested city and where thousands were killed when a massive cyclone hit us only a year later).   I went to High School in Argentina which historically is one of the most cursed nations; as it was the only country in all the Americas to have totally wiped out its’ indigenous Indian groups! Of course Argentina was also the only South American country to side with Hitler, and many years later go to war against Britain!  Insolvent twice, it now suffers from government corruption, weekly mass demonstrations, and very poor leadership.  It is also interesting to note that the general condition of most of these nations has only grown worse with time!

College did not help my fear. I was lost in my insecurity and fear which ironically kept me out of trouble and made me a good student.  As a vulnerable young adult with parents 40,000 miles away, I had to learn the American culture in the midst of the Vietnam war!  Finally in my senior year the walls came down and with trepidation, I experimented with both drugs and alcohol.  Luckily, I soon took the entrance exam for Dental School, and scored one of the highest scores in Texas- having exhibited great dexterity on the chalk test and a natural propensity for visualizing spacial relations!  With a growing confidence, I grew comfortable in my compartmentalized fear. However, when I married I had to deal with the fear of relationship failure and abandonment. Both of which were self-fulfilling!     But things were soon to change for the better and in a very radical way!

Although Fear had become my friend, it was the fear of losing control that drove me to desperation!  As my marriage was unraveling and my wife was working the late evening shift, I turned to deep episodes of using Nitrous Oxide and began the process of losing both my identity and my direction.  Realizing that I had nothing to lose, I sought the opposing side of the supernatural; I turned to the God of my childhood and Jesus Christ who seemed to be the answer.  I prostrated myself on the floor of my office and surrendered everything including those fears and my dreams, desires, thoughts, and all that I possessed and wanted.

Amazingly God answered! And He gave me purpose and an irreversible identity founded on the Gospel and His Promises. God answered my prayers with simple replies that showed me a new way of thinking based not on fear, but on grace, peace, and faith. Initially I was confused since I had depended so much on fear, evolution, competition, and all those common thoughts of lust, greed, power, and popularity.  Now I had to depend on the Bible and what I could not see! Jesus said, “The Truth will set you free!”   Truth exposed my fear and all the evil associated with it as lies!   Light defeated darkness

So how was I going to process all these changes? In His Mercy God allowed me to continue in the Nitrous so that He could “speak” to me through visions and dreams. I had a vision that a door with fire and a looming shadow of Satan opened up behind me!   It was so real that I fled in fear to my car, but as I ran a voice in my mind warned me that my car would not start.  To make matters even worse all the lights in the underground parking lot were out!  So I sprinted up the ramp to the “Stop n Go” across the street and called a ministry that I had been listening to on the radio. They told me to put on the “full armor of God”, and to return to my car and restart it.  Instead I asked them to pray for help!  We prayed and just a few minutes later a car with a group speaking only Spanish asked for the location of a nearby hospital.   In Spanish I told them, and then asked if they would help jump my car, and they agreed! –  Prayer Answered!

I had other visions, each leading me closer to God and the Love I needed so much.   Since I had no one to guide me and since I did not trust anyone, God brought a Christ-centered dental assistant into my office.  She and her husband led me through the Word and into the mission field where I served for many years. I also took 21 hours at the Dallas Theological Seminary Lay Institute and many other intensive Bible courses! God healed my mind, showing me the fallacy of evolution, and continued to sanctify my heart and soul! He gave me a zeal to seek Him and know Him through his Word, his creation, and his Church. I sought Christian fellowship, prayer, and Bible study wherever I could on a daily basis!

Jesus Christ promises us that Love will drive out FEAR!  He declares, “Be courageous!  I have overcome the world!”  He does not, however, banish fear and presents in his life the picture of a son obeying a Father who demands obedience!   No longer a weapon of the dark side, fear has drawn me to God in obedience. I love Him, but I also have a healthy fear of the Almighty God who commanded that Israel “fear and dread” Him when they turned away from him. I know how easy it is to fall away in the flesh and disobey his commands, and so I allow enough healthy fear to keep me focused and walking in His Light.  “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding; acknowledge Him in all that you do and He will make your path straight!  Do not be wise in your own eyes, fear God and turn away from evil, and this will bring healing to your body and strength to your bones!”  Prov. 3: 5-9  I know God’s love in a very, very deep way, but no one has been able to convince me that love alone will keep someone or myself from sinning.  Even the Apostle Paul struggled with the flesh!

P.S.  Ironically I and a group of fellow ballroom dancers were just recently in the “eye of the storm” when hurricane Newton made a direct hit on Cabo San Lucas. I had prayed for cool weather since September in Cabo is usually very hot. Well it was cool and we lost electricity for over 24 hours! So I had plenty of time to write for this blog!! Another bit of irony is the fact that this cyclone was named Newton which is the name of the author of my favorite song, “Amazing Grace” . This storm in essence was “amazing grace” to many dry areas in the Baja Caifornia and to those suffering in the desert heat and drought of Arizona and New Mexico. We were also graced with some of the most incredible sunsets and a sea turtle that sought refugee nearby to lay her eggs! God has his hands in the renewal of life and the redeeming of souls through the “storms of life”!  Thank you for your patience in reading my personal account, as I know many of you have had your own ups and downs in life along with many unique phobias and fears! Just know that: “God loves you so much that He sent His Son to this earth, to die for you, so that you will not perish, but will have eternal life.”  Jn. 3:16

Divine Plan or Just Chance?

Does anyone remember the movie “The Ten Commandments”, or the details of the Exodus account.   What happened when the people erected a golden calf to their self created god?   They probably tried to give the true God some token credit as they celebrated their “freedom” and “success” in escaping the Pharaoh with many of the treasures of Egypt.  Does this sound a little like religion in America?  While Moses was on top of Mt.Sinai conversing with God and receiving the 10 Commandments the people decided to worship their own way-with their own idol and a lot of fun and evil desires.   Just as America has removed the 10 Commandments from the pubic Arena….., these people did not need nor want God’s Law, nor the curse of knowing their own sin.   They wanted freedom to do what they wanted without interference.   This is the same rationale of those who want abortions and the whole abortion industry.  This is the same rationale of those behind atheism and Evolution and the New Religions of self made gods….they do not want God interfering with their desires, habits, dreams, and psyche.   This is the  rationale of all those in leadership that want to control the masses through deceit, lies, and carefully designed illusions.
The whole world is turning against the Truth and the God of the Universe who is behind the Truth.  The penalty will be great.  Remember how the earth opened up and consumed the rebellious Israelites.  Well in reality that only happened later.  If you read Exodus you will see that God commanded Moses and Aaron to arm the Levites with swords so that they could execute all those who rebelled.  In a later rebellion God opened the earth to swallow a large rebellious family.   This illustrates that God will judge us not only by a nation’s action, but also according to  family and individual decisions and behavior. We will all be held accountable for our sin – the only difference will be whether one chooses to Trust in the Sacrifice that Jesus Christ made on the Cross for your sin.  When you believe in Him you are in essence exchanging your sin for a new Life in Him, which means you are making Him Lord of your Life.
Now back to the main point.   The Golden Calf represents our own god that we wish to follow and celebrate.  Because of our sin nature we are separated from God.  However, when one erects a “standard” to this prideful rejection, it becomes a virtual “slap” in God’s face.   This happened when Israel and Judah erected “Ashtoreth poles” and other idols in and around Jerusalem during the reign of the “evil” kings.  In order to redeem His people God had to judge them by leading them into captivity.  Can and will this happen to America?  We are raising flags in jubilant gay  “Pride” parades, mosques to the moon god,  Hindu temples and other temples to “millions” of other gods, and now we are about to erect multiple replicas of the hellish Gate to Baal (Baal worship demanded the sacrifice of babies to appease the gods).  Ironically ISIS destroyed the Baal temple in Palmyra and has promised severe punishment to anyone who breaks its version of Shariah law.  They seem to understand the danger of erecting idols to other pagan gods.  America needs to wake up.
We have dumbed down our spiritual accountability and Biblical perspective to the point that worshiping skin, sports and “Shallowood” are the norm and the priority.  How many of you have heard of the “Festival to Moloch”?  Read up on it for it represents the deepest of evils in a land that God commanded to be destroyed.  No man, woman, or child was to be left alive because of the evil of the Canaanites.  They celebrated this Spring festival with the sacrifice of babies in their mountain top fire altars.  The two most holy days to the Satanist coincide with this Spring festival and the Fall festival of Halloween.  The retailers predict that we will spend up to 20% more this Halloween!
The media and now the general population seems to relish the shaming of Christians, Christianity, and anything related to Jesus Christ and the Cross. Warning signs are all around us:  extreme weather conditions, a Zika virus that has the potential of being a massive pandemic (since there is no attempt to quarantine), crazy election wars, an economic slowdown generated out of corruption and fear, and the crisis of war and terrorism throughout the world mixed in with a toxic blend of civilian crime, looting, aberrant behavior, drugs, and the perverted system of rewards for doing nothing.  Are these signs of His coming? When Jesus returns, he will return as the Judge to judge the nations and each and every individual.   Are you ready?
Do not forget that the Bible has eternal power like a supernatural double edged sword which can divide lies and deceit from Truth and Spirit …after all it is the “Living Word”.  Jesus called himself the Word. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God.” So lets see what the Word says: Gal 6:7 “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.”
So is it coincidence that these mockers were treated to a judgement instead of a reward, a sign to all those who mock God?  John Lennon mocked God what he suggested that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus Christ? He died with six bullets shot at close range. Tancredo Neves when running for President in Brazil bragged that if he got 500,000 votes not even God could remove him from office. He won, then died one day before taking office. Cazuza, a notorious Brazilian bi-sexual, mocked God by blowing a puff of smoke to a crowd saying “this is for you God”. He died of lung cancer at the age of 32. The man who built the Titanic said, “not even God can sink this ship”. The ex-vocalist of AD/DC sang, “Don’t stop me I am going down all the way down the highway to Hell” In 1980 he was found dead choked in his own vomit.
What we see day in and day out is the universal principle of “cause and effect”. Many think of it just in scientific terms, but since God created everything including science we see the “divine effect” transferred from the supernatural world into our daily world of trial and error, success and failure.   We cannot escape it because we were made in His image and for a very special reason. We were made to harvest the earth, tending to His creation, and having fellowship with Him.  However, instead of choosing Him, man naturally chose sin and self. What we reap is death, chaos, futility, and fear.    The Cross changed it all.   The Cross  restored our connection to God and opened the Door to Redemption and Fellowship with Him.  This truth will set you free!  Do not mock God!

Cosmic Coincidences or Not?

First I want to make sure that you understand what “cosmic” means.  Remember when you were a kid and how that word could transport your mind to the world of super human heroes and super natural villains.  Carl Sagan made it a common scientific word that ironically in his world of theory generated more fiction than the cartoons did.  You will not understand this until the end of this essay- so be patient.

Many of you have heard of the Privileged Planet and the simple fact that it appears mankind was “given” a special place to live and propagate.  Nowhere in the entire Universe is there a place like earth.  All our nearby planets and our moon  fit into a precise pattern that either shields us or actively improves the condition for life on our planet.  Thanks to the moon, tidal movements affect and generate ocean currents and other changes in ocean physiology that protects a very diverse ecology on this planet.  The simple fact that the Universe has a beginning implies that a Creator exists.  This Creator, or God, made something from nothing and created time, space, and energy.   This could not have happened by chance since it would go against not only every law of physics, but also every conceivable form of logic and common sense.  Carl Sagan tried to defy this very fact just like Darwin tried to formulate a man centered answer to why we have so many different species.  The fact is  God created the billions and billions of spiral galaxies (which by the way would no longer be in the perfect spiral form if left to chance and billions of years- for energy and time causes the energy of a spiral to unwind).  God also created DNA which is akin to a very sophisticated computer program and anyone who uses a computer or writes or reads knows that information cannot create itself.  This genetic information is what makes you who you are and  differentiates  every “Family” and “Kind” in the animal and plant kingdoms.

The ability to procreate -thus allowing for DNA to recombine into new patterns was God’s gift.   God started with a baseline of DNA combinations that formed the basic pure gene pool that He defined as “kind”.   These pure gene pools or “kinds” produced all the colorful and wild species that we see today.   This is what we call natural selection. For instance wolves produced all the species of dogs that we see today.  However,  it is impossible for two different “kinds”  to procreate with each other.  We do not see one “kind” producing a new “kind”.  For instance we do not see dogs producing a type of cat, or horse, or alligator.  All cats are of the same “kind”; everything from kitties to Lions to Bob cats.  All dogs are of the same kind: from wolves, to poodles, to Hyenas.  Human kind cannot and will never be able to “evolve” into an ape, nor will an ape evolve into a human.

Now back to the Cosmic issue.  Since God created the Universe, the word Cosmic implies a Divine and a supernatural element to our existence.  So as we continue in this vein of logic, we will see that many things that we take for granted or just cannot explain are in essence carefully planned by our Creator- wars for instance that were won by sudden storms or extreme weather.  We are given examples in the Bible of hail storms that destroyed cities (Egypt) or defeated armies (Judges and the battle Deborah fought for Israel);  of droughts that brought Empires to their knees as in the case of Joseph and Egypt;  of navies that we decimated by storms as in the case of Xerxes and Esther (more of historical nature); or of earthquakes that marked the moment of the Resurrection.  We have blood moons, sackcloth suns, falling stars, and a host of other cosmic events promised in prophecy.  In history we also see the weather related defeat of the Spanish Armada, the British marine forces in Washington in the War of 1812, the German invasion of Russia, and the great Chinese naval fleet attacking Japan.  History shows how fog has protected our men and other “good” military forces from being detected during war. There are countless other accounts of “super natural” events and conditions aiding in the survival of noble men and women in war  and in peace.

So lets address the main theme of this essay: is God directing events today?  Can and would God use ISIS or Iran or for that matter any enemy of America in the same way as He used Assyria, Babylon, and Persia?  Are we deserving of Judgment? Many seem to think so including many leading pastors.   Why for instance are we catering to concepts, philosophies, and behavior that mimic the pagan nations that God judged in the Old Testament.  We place the creation over the Creator in our worship of animals and evolution.   We place convenience and personal “rights” over the sanctity of life as in the case of wanton abortion.  It is estimated that with the new abortion pill, that our nation alone commits a million abortions per year!    We place “tolerance” foremost in the formation of new laws that elevate homosexuality and most other deviant forms of sexual behavior.  We glamorize violence, sex, drugs, and cosmetic beauty.  We exploit the young, the innocent, and the weak to promote our materialistic and narcissistic society.  We fill our void of loneliness and rejection with pets, alcohol, fantasy, and fiction. We have turned away from God and from the Truth that He placed on our path.  We have rejected a relationship with the Almighty God

Is it mere Coincidence that we are erecting a gate from the Temple of Baal at our most famous intersection: Times Square?   Is this significant?  It reminds me of the “Harbinger” verse in Isaiah 9:11 where the “curse” is misinterpreted by Congressional and other public leaders as being a blessing. They think that it is a “victory” call –  when it actually is a warning of impending judgement by God.   This pagan gate is not a “victory gate”,  it is a symbolic gate or door to a Hellish Temple and the worse form of worship- the sacrifice of babies. It has recently been reported that multiple “Baal Gates” will be delivered to cities around our country!  As stated earlier that form of pagan worship was why God allowed, and in fact motivated the great pagan Empires to attack and conquer Israel and Jerusalem!  The only Door that honors God is Jesus Christ who called himself the “Door” to eternal life.  He is both the path and  the Light that guides us through this dark, confusing world of sin.  He is the “Strong Tower” and our “Redeemer” who saves us from the penalty of sin and death.  It is no coincidence that the principalities of evil and the powers of darkness erect mosques, pornography shops, or cult structures next to churches and Christian charities.

Trump Time vs Media Hype

I never thought that I would be taking the side of Trump, but after the bombastic, one-sided, behavior of the media in scourging the candidate, I have changed my mind. Trump is absolutely right in saying that “he should sue the media”. The media reacted in their normal fashion by saying that it would be against the constitution for Trump to sue them…. Really? The media has been sued many times for misrepresenting facts and lost. The best  case was the bombing in Atlanta where they skewered an innocent man by saying early on in the investigation that he was culpable. They hounded the poor guy to the point that his refusal to cooperate was framed by the media as a sign of his guilt.

The media has been criticized for not giving equal time during an election to all candidates. The media loves to make fun of Trump, yet completely ignores the fallacies and lies of the Hillary campaign. She has broken the law with her private email server, something more egregious than the General Petraeus email scandal. Her actions may have compromised  American security since her “lack of judgement” was happening “real time” and during a real crisis in foreign affairs. Many aspects of our emergency protocols were learned by our enemies.

Another big problem is the media’s lack of fairness in providing equal expression. For instance here in Dallas, the Dallas Morning News has a flagrant liberal cartoon called “Doonesbury” which seems to have a completely free hand in attacking the church, Christianity, and any person the author wishes to malign. Most of what the author says is not true and is just conjecture or theory. Does the Dallas Morning News have a cartoon to counter balance this huge liberal bent? No!  They have not allowed a conservative, nor a “Christian” cartoon into their paper. This problem  motivated me to cancel my subscription.

The media has used degrading and sarcastic humor to attack Trump in all the evening talk shows, at the Oscars, and in most other venues. Trump recently promised to sue those networks and newspapers. I think that he could win, – if he does not wait too long.   If the liberals win this election, we are likely to see a Nazi type judicial system in the very near future.  The media loves to take one phrase, one sentence, or sound bite and make an entire story out of it.  From an hour long event they will take 15 seconds of action and make a negative story out of that, ignoring the fact that a protester had impeded the celebration for 30 minutes and infringed upon the constitution rights of all those around him.

And this brings up the next issue: the double talk used by the media in pushing its agenda.  The Media focuses their cameras on signs and bill boards claiming that Trump is another Hitler when in essence it is the liberal media, Obama,and its agencies that are pushing a Nazi like propaganda machine.   They are trying to uproot family and religious values and principles  that are the backbone of this country.  One good example of this is how the media vilifies anyone who they think is not politically correct yet ignores actual criminal elements guiding protesters, the Hillary machine, and others in this pro-Islamic administration.   The media hype against Trump is a well orchestrated arm of the Obama Administration, globalism, the UN, and the Bilderburg/Rothschild/Soros forces.  Thank God that someone is not walking in step with the world system that wants to bring America down.  It seems as if Trump is willing to stand up against this multi-dimensional dark power and any political correctness that they have successfully manipulated others with.

The latest development imposes the rule of violence and force to impede this nations election process.   Organized groups of disenchanted youth, union members, illegal migrants, Bernie babies,  and Trump bashers are blocking freeways and roads in order to prevent the normal election process from taking place.   So why doesn’t the media demand that the Democratic party call off it’s dogs.  The media is quick to demand that Trump tell his supporters to play dead! The fact is the media is using a double standard in every aspect of this election.  Thanks to Trump we have an anecdote to this elemental force of deception that is ruling our nation.  Frankly the media is terrified of Trump because they know that he will force changes, even if it requires the Justice Department to take action against their monopoly.  If Trump wins his promise to sue these media giants could indeed happen.  This does not mean that I am a bonafide Trump supporter.  I still favor Cruz but would find it very entertaining to watch Trump go after this ever dangerous Media monopoly.

 

Here are some simple facts of life that you can rely on:

10.  Life seems good, but the afterlife is better if you make it to the good side.

9. Death is the number one killer in the world.

8. Life is sexually transmitted.

7. Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

6. Men have two motivations: hunger and hanky panky, and they can’t
tell them apart.  If you see a gleam in his eyes, make him a sandwich.

5. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to
use the Internet and they won’t bother you for weeks, months, maybe years.

4. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the
hospital, dying of nothing.

3. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no
attention to criticism.

4. In the 60’s, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the
world is weird, and people take Prozac to make it normal.

5. Life is like a jar of jalapeno peppers. What you do today may
become a burning issue tomorrow.

Wicked Ways

Wicked Ways
I know that this is going to sound like voodoo science or trash reporting but I believe that this in a growing phenomena that we all need to pay attention to. We have seen the craziness of individuals like the Lufthansa pilot and our homegrown “wide eyed” mass murderer. But these are only a few of the really sick people that the media has focused on. In Guinea there was a little reported “vampire” killer draining the blood out of his victims. In Sierra Leone we watched in horror as armed kids cut off the arms and legs of other kids and in Central Africa the Lord’s Army of mesmerized children rampaged through villages and ravaged countless lives. Now we are witnessing the insane ferocity of ISIS, women suicide bombers killing people in prayer, and the Boko Haram mass rape and kidnaping. Evil is being cultivated even in the minds of our home grown children as shown in many cases of pre-medicated child on child torture and murder.

This is not a studied “mad cow” phenomena, nor something that society would dare define as simply a psychological issue such as schizophrenia or paranoia. It is more like a devilishness that appears to take control as it worms its way into ones conscience destroying any vestige of goodness. The character of this “virus” would come closer to a grade B zombie movie or a Biblical phenomena described in the New Testament as “demon possession”.

I would suggest that this is only going to get worse, much worse. My hunch is that our system of morality, godliness, and decency has broken down and that this bizarre behavior is a reflection of that breakdown. A good comparison would be a hospital that loses interest in maintaining a sterile environment. “Invisible” agents begin to cause very serious infections that affect not only the patients but everyone else. There seems to a line of accountability that we have broached. And these global anomalies may be a warning of something much worse that is about to come?

Are we seeing other “signs” and warnings? We have scientists working on the sudden increase in earthquakes in “middle America” and the increased volcanic activity in the “Ring of Fire”. The media has reported on the violent increase in “catastrophic” weather events around the world. The media however, has failed to report much on the other unusual events and discoveries that have recently happened! For instance how many of you have heard about the 6.3 earthquake that shook Antarctica, a place where earthquakes do not occur! Has the media exposed the truth concerning recent Dinosaur finds in China? The Chinese Paleontologists have tried to explain to the world that our evolutionary tree does not make any sense. They were immediately suppressed by American and European scientists and told to keep quiet. They correctly described our behavior as arrogant and unscientific. Yes, these scientists found “feathered dinosaurs” and mammals in geologic layers that flipped the “western” established “evolutionary tree”.  Paleontology states that feathered dinosaurs had to evolve after the dinosaur age and before the mammalian period.  Yet discoveries in China contradict both!   There is an eternal cost to promoting and living in Lies.

There seems to be a global conspiracy to keep the truth away from the general population.  How can evolutionary science explain elastic and viable tissue in over 100 fossil specimens found throughout this planet?  Why has the paleontologist refused to reveal what is inside thousands of dinosaur eggs that have been found over the decades?  Tom Horn, the famed T-Rex specialist, asked that very question.  A true scientist would dissect the egg!  In China they accidentally cracked opened two sauropod eggs and found totally elastic and colored, non-fossilized embryo’s inside!  Note that these sauropods are listed on the “American” Evolutionary tree to be over 190 million years old!!!   Any CSI expert would tell you that blood and tissue cannot exist that long without total derangement of proteins!  Our esteemed scientists claim that there must be a super protein involved!  What? I thought they believed in EVOLUTION!  That would mean that prehistoric proteins should be much more “primitive”.  Where is the media, scientist, or anyone with any form of logic?  Can’t anyone put 2 and 2 together?

Another simple question to ask yourself is:  “how did our planet get populated with trillions of tons of water to the point that over 75% of earth is covered by some form of water? ”  Where did this water come from?  Just as water cannot evolve, DNA which is language cannot evolve.  This is like suggesting that mouse traps and books  can evolve out of nothing!  Understand this language and computer programs do NOT HAPPEN WITHOUT AN INTELLIGENT DESIGNER!

Visions:

In 1974 David Wilkerson published a book called “Visions” that would immediately be panned by the media and denounced by his own Pentecostal Church movement. Now amazingly this book of prophetic thoughts has come true. God gave him a vision of America that has come true 100%. He was careful to note that some would not come true in his lifetime. He died in 2011 in a tragic car accident. He was right about our fall from Grace. He was right about the fall of major companies in a worldwide economic collapse. He was right about the revolution at the polls that would elect a popular President that will cause changes undermining our principles, an increase in cataclysmic weather changes, the rise and power of the homosexual movement, the legalization of marijuana, the increase in persecution of Christians, and the fall of major auto companies. So far the taxation of churches and a major earthquake in an unusual place have both not happened. Although the earthquake in DC that cracked the Lincoln Memorial might be notable.

As David Reagan stated our nation is now too far gone to turn back. There was a point at which God told both Ezekiel and Jeremiah not to pray for Israel or Judah anymore – for He would not longer give an ear. Paul understood this and in the book of Romans he clearly explains this step by step decline. First Paul states, “The just shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. “ In other words our conscience and sense of right and wrong should be evidence enough of a Divine Creator. But Paul also shows that the creation itself, the stars, planets, and everything else in this creation is manifestation enough of a divine hand. So there is NO excuse. “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. HERE IS STEP ONE : the nation forgets what God has done for them. We were established as a Christian nation of persecuted refugees who gave God the Glory for their survival. All the great universities were created as seminaries and all the state constitutions gave God the Glory. So now as Obama has clearly shown we have grown vain and very forgetful of our heritage. The first fateful signs occurred when prayer and Bibles were removed from schools and all the halls of government.

STEP TWO: “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. “ (INSTEAD OF GIVING GOD THE GLORY OF BEING CREATOR THEY REPLACED EVOLUTION AND ALL ITS GODLINESS AND TAUGHT IT AS TRUTH TO EVERYONE). This put the Bible, the Word of God and Truth into the category of “fable”, “lore” and good children’s stories.

STEP THREE: “Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves”. This has manifested itself in wonton abortions and STD’s. We see this happening in all walks of life; from the piercing and tattoo halls, to the halls of Wall Street and the high professions. Homosexuality, sex abuse (SRA- Satanic Ritual Abuse), pornography, and many aberrant sexual acts are also on the rise and even worshiped.” When the highest court in the land gave honor & legality to this trend, our nation took a giant leap into darkness.

STEP FOUR: “For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. Furthermore, because they did not think it worthwhile to keep knowing God fully, God delivered them to degraded minds to perform acts that should not be done.” God said because of a rebellious heart he would give man and woman up to homosexuality as penalty. This is being manifested in widespread homosexual behavior and the growing transgender movement. Men and women are losing their identity just as our nation is. LOSS OF IDENTITY.

STEP FIVE: “They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, quarreling, deceit, and viciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, haughty, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to their parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, and ruthless. Although they know God’s just requirement—that those who practice such things deserve to die” The FINAL STEP IS DESTRUCTION -Once the sin becomes so great their hearts ARE HARDENED and their influence affects everyone including the innocent children- Just as in the Days of Noah mankind will be doing everything evil in the eyes of God. At the point the most merciful thing for God to do is to JUDGE. (Romans 1:21-32)
