Welcome~
Hello and Welcome~
The world is blind to these SEVEN, pivotal facts:
1. The Bible communicates Heaven’s 'Multi-millennial Strategic Plan for Humanity'.
2. There are SEVEN ages appointed for humanity.
3. We are nearing the end of the THIRD age, a pivotal turning point in this strategy.
4. A GREAT falling away from the Christian faith is predicted during the ending days of this THIRD age, as a result of backsliding, general lukewarmness and outright apostasy among the heretofore faithful. Look around and this you will clearly see.
5. Biblical prophecies have been and remain seeds of human history.
6. Yet-fulfilled prophecies, unfolding apace, are worthy of diligent study.
7. Now is the time to get and stay on ‘the right side of Bible prophecy’.

Getting Down to the Taproot
Honestly, folks, it’s not about politics, parties, economic growth rates, market values, value of the dollar, national budgets, wage rates (for CEOs or minimum), corporate growth and tax rates, control of government/congress, job creation or unemployment...
- From where comes this fear -- from God’s kindness, goodness, preaching, calamity?
- Once lost, whether at the personal or national level, how is it regained or rekindled?
- What are the risks of ignoring this, the taproot of our problems?
Science Got the Sequence WRONG
i - Rebel
Imagine when Isaiah (2 Kings 20) served as God's messenger to King Hezekiah at the point of the king's death, revealing that God would add 15 years to the king's life. If Isaiah had known that the king would sire a son during those additional years, who would grow up as an evil king, and would sentence Isaiah to death by sawing in half, I wonder if he (Isaiah) would have still delivered the message to Hezekiah, or maybe would have high-tailed it out of town - just as I would have done! What about you??
Unless our wills have been largely, if not totally subjugated to The Lord's will, rather than seeking God's full vision for our lives, it would be far better to seek to remain 'in His will', step-by-step. Would you risk revealing your own strategy and tactics to so-called or unproven 'friends' whom you knew or suspected were rebels to varying degrees? Heck no!
Before now, I never imagined praying this prayer. Perhaps it may be relevant to you, also:
is more fully subjugated to Your will.
may You, by Your awesome GRACE,
NEWS FLASH: Voting Season Extended
The Bible affirms every person who will have ever lived will one day receive an immortal, physical body – one that will never die. Consider this in the light of the expression: Born once, die twice; but born twice, die once! While this refers to being born again as a means to escape the so-called second death, it is possible that unbelievers in Christ may misunderstand this concept, thinking there is no life at all during the so-called second death! This would be a very risky and erroneous interpretation. ‘Death’ in the context of the second death refers to eternal separation from God, the source of all life, light, love and goodness. People who reject the forgiveness of sin and the eternal life Jesus now promises will be very much alive throughout their chosen/voted for second death experience. This sheds a whole new light on the concept of the living dead, doesn’t it? - something we watch scary movies about, but is a very real promise that will soon be fulfilled.
In our democracy, we are encouraged to vote, but we also have the right not to vote. A Facebook post claimed non-voters are responsible for sending bad politicians to our state and national legislatures. Debatable, of course. Regarding the matter of eternal life, beware, there is no such thing as a non-voter. Only a ‘YES!’ vote for Christ in this current life will guarantee your escape from God’s promised, eternal second death in the life-to-come, one designed and reserved for satan and his crew - and for anyone they can deceive into believing all this ‘God-stuff’ is foolishness.
What Does it Take?
How can I make this dream come true for me?
Whoa, I just got to know, ooo, baby cause I love ya so.

[Instrumental Interlude]
I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried in every way I could,
to make you see how much I love you.
Ooo, I thought you understood.
what does it take to win your love for me?
Gonna blow again for ya.
History is replete with nation-after-nation that spurned God’s love, manifested by His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering. From my personal life, and in observing the lives of others, it seems one thing is rock solid in the human experience: We don’t learn well the lessons from others’ mistakes! Nope, our prideful nature ensures we have to make our own personal mistakes, irrespective of the costs to ourselves or others! Notice I said, ‘we’. No one is exempt from this seemingly cardinal rule. This rule apparently also applies to nations!
