Most Important Thing You Can Do
The goal of each Christian is to grow in our love for God. I believe as we grow in love for God we gain a strong desire to not do those things which will offend Him, thus we will be living in a way that causes us to fear (offending) the Lord. In essence then, loving God and having a fear of offending Him are really two sides of the same coin. They work hand in hand, in my opinion.
Loving God and the resultant fear of offending Him can only happen when we make the effort. It is effort in this life because of our inherent sin nature that always wants us to move away from God. We must instead use our effort and faculties to move toward God.
Narrow Your Prayer Focus
I’m suggesting we change focus so that the focus is more on things closer to home; family, friends, church people and those around you that you know are unsaved. It is far easier for me to believe that God hears those prayers and will respond favorably, as opposed to prayers to change the course of this world. His Word teaches us that this is not going to happen until everything has played out according to the perfection of His will.
Spirit of Antichrist Rising
The digitization of global society via 5G Internet/WiFi network is a major step in putting things in place that will ultimately allow the coming man of sin to not only gain control of this entire world, but will effectively be able to mold the way people think in real time.
Perspective: Because He…
So where do we go from here? What does the Christian do to overcome the negativity, the bad news, the effects of Satan being allowed to control more and more of global society? There is only one thing I am aware of and I will admit I’m not great at putting it into practice…yet, but I am working on getting there.
Growing Away
But the globalists got what they wanted because a very large percentage of church-goers stopped going and have never gone back. It has become the way for too many today. Our kids, unfortunately, are among them. Now, they would argue that they have small children who take naps during the time of church service and to disrupt their children’s routine is something they want to avoid. I get it. My wife gets it. In fact, since we raised our own children, we absolutely get it. However, we always found a way to be fairly consistent in attending church. The great falling away?
Revelation: 70 Weeks and Rev 4
In a nutshell, the 70 weeks of Daniel 9:24-27 is really an extension or take-off on the 70 years that Daniel had been reading about in the writings of Jeremiah, where he predicted that Israel would be thrown out of their land and taken captive for that length of time. As Daniel read this passage from Jeremiah (Jeremiah 25:11-12; 29:10), he realized that the 70 year period was almost up and of course, he was very excited about that. This lead him to pray his heartfelt prayer in the first 19 verses of Daniel 9.
Microaggression, Intersectionality and War in Urkraine
Microaggression is a term that means that whenever a white person interacts with a person of color, while their questions and even statements might seem straightforward, the truth (according to CRT), is that often these questions are filled with underlying “aggression,” hence the term “microaggression.” For instance, if a white person is talking with a person of color whom they’ve just met, the white person might ask, “Where are you from?” This innocuous question that has always been seen as simply one of the starting points to advancing conversation, is now seen as really implying “you don’t really belong here.”
First Four Seals
This world is on the brink of global conflict. Biden continues calling for the overthrow of Putin. If world war actually does break out, we can conclude that there will be tremendous famine, disease and pestilence along with huge shortages of everything people have gotten used to having in life. I have no clue how this will end. I’m simply providing what I believe to be possible insight into the increasing global problems we will all likely face.
Same Beast?
Obviously, this is a very weird-looking beast that John saw and he did the best he could in describing it. Of course students of the Bible should immediately note the similarities between Daniel 2 and Revelation 13. This shows us that the two beasts in these two books of Scripture are actually one and the same beasts. But unlike Daniel, John is not focusing on the first three beasts. He notes them signifying that it’s the same beast from Daniel, but then focuses on the aspects of the final or fourth beast that was to come and certainly, part of this beast was very much alive in John’s day.
Daniel 7 and Revelation 13 Pt 7
I don’t believe there is any reason for us to be overcome with fear, though it can be tiring. We force ourselves to go on in spite of the fact that it appears globalists have the power right now and they are working hard to cement their position throughout the earth. Only God truly knows if they will be successful now or if He disallows it.
