Well well well after all we've had to overcome our future is indeed bright!!!

Rev 2:26 'He who overcomes, and heho keeps My deeds until the end, TO HIM I WILL GIVE AUTHORITY OVER THE NATIONS;


Well well well after all we've had to overcome our future is indeed bright!!!

Rev 2:28 and I will give him the morning star.

We will shine, our countenance, as the sun shines in all its strength.

Rev 2:28 and I will give him the morning star.

Rev 2:26 'He who overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds until the end, TO HIM I WILL GIVE AUTHORITY OVER THE NATIONS;
Rev 2:27 AND HE SHALL RULE THEM WITH A ROD OF IRON, AS THE VESSELS OF THE POTTER ARE BROKEN TO PIECES, as I also have received authority from My Father;
Rev 2:28 and I will give him the morning star.


First thing that comes to my mind concerning this verse is that the "morning star" is given to all who overcomes. At one time according to scripture, Satan, when he was called Lucifer, had the morning star as well.

Is 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven, 
O star of the morning, son of the dawn! 
You have been cut down to the earth, 
You who have weakened the nations!

And Jesus our LORD is the bright and morning star, so exactly what is the star of the morning. Let us define what the morning star is. The morning star is not the sun instead it is a star that can still be seen even when the sun has risen. I am reminded of the wise men who proclaimed they had seen His (Jesus) star in the east and have come to worship HIM.

Therefore, Jesus was not born on December 25 and was more than likely born in the summer.

Luke 2:8 In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.
Luke 2:9 And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.
Luke 2:10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;
Luke 2:11 for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:12 "This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."

One problem, the historical record of this period reveal that shepards were only in the fields tending their flock between March and November after that it was too cold. Therefore Jesus was not born on December 25 and was more than likely born in the summer.

Now think about it, if the pastor does not know the Bible on such a basic subject then how much more ignorant are the people under his teachings.

I heard a very well known mega church pastor preach that there were five(5) witnesses to the birth of Jesus in the manger. The witnesses would be the three wise men and Mary & Joseph. This information is false. The three wise men came sometime after the birth of Jesus. Jesus may have been 2 years old already. The three wise men first saw Jesus living in a house and NOT when he was born in a manger.

Matthew 2:1-2:
"Now when Jesus was (past tense) born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,


Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him."

Jesus was a young child when the wise men came and not an infant. Notice they visited a HOUSE and not a manger.

Matthew 2:11 "And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshiped him..."

All this time you have been accepting something as being fact when it was totally false and not even close to being true. Now think about it, if the pastor does not know the Bible on such a basic subject then how much more ignorant are the people under his teachings.

Matt 16:6And Jesus said to them, "Watch out and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees."

Matt 16:12Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

The acceptance of the Father's will for your life no matter how dreadful the consequences is the only path to learning obedience.

Heb 5:8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered.


Heb 5:9 And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation,

The acceptance of the Father's will for your life no matter how dreadful the consequences is the only path to learning obedience.

Acts 21:11 And coming to us, he took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands, and said, "This is what the Holy Spirit says: 'In this way the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'"

Acts 21:13 Then Paul answered, "What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but even to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

The Apostle Paul had accepted the suffering that oftentimes accompanies obedience.

United States NOT part of end time Bible prophecy.

United States NOT part of end time Bible prophecy. - Daniel 11 &12, Ezekiel 38 shows explicitly armies to the north(Iran/Iraq-Gog/Magog) will invade Jerusalem in the last days prior to the return of Jesus. America's exit from Iraq is a sign of faltering US influence in the middle east. And the US as a world wide police force will soon disappear, pending economic collapse will fuel this process. The US is the only ally of Israel yet Israel in accordance with the Bible, will stand alone against its enemies in the last days the US will NOT be involved.  In order to understand how world events support the Bible there must be knowledge of geography from a historical perspective. 


Ezek 38:14 "Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "On that day when My people Israel are living securely, will you not know it?
Ezek 38:15 "You will come from your place out of the remote parts of the north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly and a mighty army;
Ezek 38:16 and you will come up against My people Israel like a cloud to cover the land. It shall come about in the last days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me when I am sanctified through you before their eyes, O Gog."     


Notice Gog MaGog is the area of Iraq and Iran. If you ask the average Christian about end times events their knowledge is very limited. The reason for the lack of knowledge is two fold.  Leadership has failed to explained prophecy that will be fulfilled, and also we do not read the for Bible for ourselves.  
What does this information provide???? Encouragement!!! Yes encouragement that our labors, prayers, efforts are not at all in vain and the coming of the Lord is near. As already defined by the infallible and inerrant Holy Word of GOD from the Holy Bible Jesus is coming!!!. 

Ezek 39:1 "And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal;
Ezek 39:2 and I will turn you around, drive you on, take you up from the remotest parts of the north and bring you against the mountains of Israel.
Ezek 39:3 "I will strike your bow from your left hand and dash down your arrows from your right hand.
Ezek 39:4 "You will fall on the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you; I will give you as food to every kind of predatory bird and beast of the field.
Ezek 39:5 "You will fall on the open fie, ld; for it is I who have spoken," declares the Lord GOD.
Ezek 39:6 "And I will send fire upon Magog and those who inhabit the coastlands in safety; and they will know that I am the LORD.
Ezek 39:7 "My holy name I will make known in the midst of My people Israel; and I will not let My holy name be profaned anymore. And the nations will know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.


The Bible clearly shows who are the participants of end time events the US is noticeably absent from the field of players. What does this mean to Americans???. It means we are witnessing the fall of the American empire, watch Afghanistan, our exit is near. The Iraq war only solidified Iraq and Iran's solidarity the same will occur with Afghanistan and Pakistan. All these countries are enemies of Israel and all these countries are coming together for the final showdown, the battle of Armageddon.  

They deny the gifting and power of the Holy Spirit the Lord uses to equip us for service, and instead their confidence is put in a piece of powerless paper.

What happens when we receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit ?


Acts 1:8 But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth.     You have now received your credentials for ministry and service to Jesus, no degree required.

Many many Churches today required a Masters Degree from a theological seminary before you can even be considered a candidate for ministry. This condition is not in line with the Bible. Here is a specific example of how men are making the word of GOD of none affect with their made up rules. They deny the gifting and power of the Holy Spirit the Lord uses to equip us for service, and instead their confidence is put  in a piece of powerless paper.

 1 Pet 4:10 As each of you has received a gift (a particular spiritual talent, a gracious divine endowment), employ it for one another as [befits] good trustees of God's many-sided grace [faithful stewards of the extremely diverse powers and gifts granted to Christians by unmerited favor].

Please be aware the Jews saw Jesus as an uneducated man as well and yet He was the savior of the whole world. Most churches today would not recognize the Lord if HE came through their front door today on
Sunday and neither would He be allowed to preach because Jesus would not meet their carnal expectations.

John 7:15 The Jews then were astonished, saying, "How has this man become learned, having never been educated?"

Am I saying education is bad? Not at all, But education that contradicts the Bible is wrong, and education is wrong when it annuls the gifting of the Holy Spirit. If you are not baptized  in the Holy Spirit you do not meet the LORD's requirement and you are unqualified for ministry no matter how many degrees you have. Be filled with the precious Holy Spirit or sit down!!

1 Cor 2:4 And my language and my message were not set forth in persuasive (enticing and plausible) words of wisdom, but they were in demonstration of the [Holy] Spirit and power [a proof by the Spirit and power of God, operating on me and stirring in the minds of my hearers the most holy emotions and thus persuading them],

1 Cor 2:5 So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men (human philosophy), but in the power of God.

How to recognize self righteous people

How to recognize self righteous people. - When seeing someone or hearing of someone overtaken in a fault they respond by saying" If that were me I would never do somehing like that". Even though they are clueless regarding how they would respond in the same situation. Or when giving advice they generally start off by saying"What people do not understand is...." As if they have cornered the market on wisdom.

Gal 6:1 BRETHREN, IF any person is overtaken in misconduct or sin of any sort, you who are spiritual [who are responsive to and controlled by the Spirit] should set him right and restore and reinstate him, without any sense of superiority and with all gentleness, keeping an attentive eye on yourself, lest you should be tempted also.

Rom 12:3 For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith.

The only way that we can properly and accurately appraise any situation is by the spirit. Absent the Holy Spirit you have nothing left but the carnal mind, the carnal (or natural) mind is woefully inadequate to  make judgments  about the activities of men. This is one of the many many reasons Christians must be filled with the Holy Spirit of GOD.


1 Cor 2:14 But the natural, nonspiritual man does not accept or welcome or admit into his heart the gifts and teachings and revelations of the Spirit of God, for they are folly (meaningless nonsense) to him; and he is incapable of knowing them [of progressively recognizing, understanding, and becoming better acquainted with them] because they are spiritually discerned and estimated and appreciated.

Generally those who are self righteous will submit to religious dogma because they are incapable of distinguishing between religious dogma and the truths contained in the Holy Bible. In fact most have difficulty even reading their Bible and often leave their Bible at home when attending church on Sunday. Without the infilling of the Holy Spirit we become ripe to be lead captive by the latest doctrinal fade.

Is all sickness and disease caused by sin?

Is all sickness and disease caused by sin? You would initially think the answer would be yes, since prior to the fall of man there was no sickness and disease. The disciples  asked Jesus this question regarding the subject;

John 9:2 And His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?"


John 9:3 Jesus answered, "It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was so that the works of God might be displayed in him.


I find the response of Jesus to be very profound because it demonstrates the sovereignty of GOD over human affairs.This man had done nothing wrong to deserve to be born blind and neither had his parents sinned that blindness might be passed down to him because of their transgressions.

Current Church Condition- The whole head is sick And the whole heart is faint.

Is 1:5 Where will you be stricken again, As you continue in your rebellion? 
The whole head is sick And the whole heart is faint.
Is 1:6 From the sole of the foot even to the head There is nothing sound in it, 
Only bruises, welts and raw wounds,Not pressed out or bandaged, Nor softened with oil.

Because we have failed to stay accountable to each other, these scriptures represent the current condition of the church. If leadership is allowed to serve in the midst of their sin, how much more will those under their care be allowed to continue in their sin as well.


James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.

Einstein's Theory of Relativity lines up with the Bible

Last week I think, I enjoyed watching on the net a documentary about Einstein's Theory of Relativity. I find science fascinating because it explains how things work. And , what makes it most interesting is how many scientific theories line up with the Bible. That's right, and please note that it is science lining up with the Bible and NOT the Bible lining up with science. Einstein's Theory of Relativity lines up with the Bible as well.

If you want to know the birthplace of science here it is: John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:2 He was in the beginning with God.
John 1:3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.

The greatest physicist of all time is not Albert Einstein, His name is Jesus Christ, the SON of the Living GOD>

Einstein had two components in his theory one involved time and motion and the other, energy equals a physical mass. By the way energy as a function of mass is how nuclear bombs work. It was Einstein that made nuclear weapons possible.

The Theory of Relativity. Example- If you leave earth in a spaceship and move at the speed of light 186,000 miles per second for 24 hours and then turn around and return to earth, when you get back 10 years will have passed but to you in has only been two days.

You see time is indeed relative two days to you 10 years to everyone on earth. Here is a scripture reference that explains the Theory of Relativity two thousand years before Einstein was born.

‎2 Pet 3:8 Nevertheless, do not let this one fact escape you, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.

Notice the verse says "as a thousand years " and not a day is a thousands years! Why because it is relative baby :)  Since time is relative and not fixed but fluid or dynamic It suggest the ability to travel through time backwards and forward depending on motion and direction.  I view Ps 139:10 now with better understanding. And all other verses the talk about the foreknowledge of GOD.

Ps 139:16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your book all the days [of my life] were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them.


And how else could Jesus be slain BEFORE the foundation of the world (past tense) unless time is relative.

Rev 13:8 And all the inhabitants of the earth will fall down in adoration and pay him homage, everyone whose name has not been recorded in the Book of Life of the Lamb that was slain [in sacrifice] from the foundation of the world.


This is why the recorded creation record does NOT mean everything was created in literally 6 Days. In fact until the 4th Day (or relative period of time) there was no such things as a literal 24 hr day. God did not put the Sun.moon and everything in motion that produces a 24 hr cycle until the 4th day so we know if could not have been literally 6 - 24 hr periods to make all creation. It is easy for me to understand how many unsaved people think Christians are dogmatic in their faith when we try to defend a literal 6 day creation period because it is just NOT possible.

1 Cor 2:15 But the spiritual man tries all things [he examines, investigates, inquires into, questions, and discerns all things],............
