Coexist

Hell is the official center of coexistence - there are different reason those who are there are there - but they have a common future

the current marriage controversy

In a nation that fears GOD  and loves the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, there is no need for a court of men to make moral decisions about marriage.
GOD has already done that.

Hezekiah

In our studies through the Bible we are currently in 2 Kings 18- King Hezekiah. in this particular chapter we see a great chapter on building your faith. The Kingdom is surrounded by Assyrians - and is being taunted by the Rabshakeh or the Assyrian kings personal spokesman. As he mocks God and derides His character, the people of Israel are tested in their faith and trust of God. Can God protect them, can He deliver them. Will He show up on their behalf. When you are surrounded these are important questions. Well the answer is yes, they trust in the Lord and the word that God delivers through the prophet came to pass. Their attackers leave and the pagan king is killed in his own country by his own kin.
What was the key to all this;  Hezekiah did what was right in the sight of the Lord and God honored him and his stand against the enemies of the Lord.
When we trust God beyond what we can see and He, God works our problems out to His glory.

How are things going?

Ever been asked that question? Our answer is usually " Oh I am doing just fine. "

The boys are playing baseball, the girls are involved in dance class, the dog just had puppies and the cat has just had that operation so she won't be giving us any more kittens. Frank just got a new position at the firm. And I personally have just eclipsed 400 friends on my face book account, twitter is just keeping me so busy, and the club is just growing leaps and bounds.
Then there is reality:
I stay busy to avoid this terrible depression I'm going through, I think my marriage is in the tank, I really don't know about the kids, so I keep them busy in outside activities, I hate puppies and I wish the cat would quit puking on the carpet. Really my life is a mess, but we look good on the outside. I think we need to get some help from some place but that would get Frank kicked off the elder board at church and I would loose all my juice on the PTA.

 I don't want anyone to know how bad it is right now. I sure hope we cant get through this, before bowling league starts.


I lift my eyes up unto the Heavens, where does my help come from. It comes from you Lord maker of heaven, creator of the earth.

Well one week to go till we remember the Resurrection of Christ, this week would correspond to the time when Jesus was in Jerusalem, being watched by the religious judges, back then it was the Scribes , Pharisee's and Sadducee's. To me personally as we study through the Bible this week goes right along with 2 Kings 17:25-41. Foreigners have been settled into Samaria - they are not worshiping God, so He(GOD)  send lions and people / pagans  are killed, so the king of Assyria gets a Levite to come and teach them to worship God - yet they still worship their pagan gods. Coexist, compromise, Emerge, ecumenicalism. Oh Yes! But then I see God fearing churches? do their easter egg hunts, the week before easter - to compromise with the world and trying their best to draw the lost by entertaining them.
On April 6th Ask your child which day they likes the best, the candy and egg hunt day or the day Jesus rose from the dead. Happy Resurrection Day -Children of the living God.

Ice this

for those of you who don't get the title of this post, just think a moment. then turn in your Bible to Ezekiel 38,39 and read. Notice those who are in attendance of this intervention of God on those who try to invade His Land.
Set your face against  Gog and prophesy against him
Behold I am against you
I will turn you around , put hooks into your jaws and lead you out, with all your army , a great company
Persia, Ethiopia and Libya
Gomer and all its troops - united Germany
Togarmah - here is a unique list of the invaders of the Nation of Israel from the north: Syria and Lebanon
you will ascend like a storm, covering the land like a cloud you and all your troops and many peoples with you."
Eze 38:10 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan: Eze 38:11 "You will say, 'I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates' - Eze 38:12 "to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.
Eze 38:14  "Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?
Ezkiel 38:16 will you come up against my people,
17 In days past I said you would come _ I would them against you
18 And it will come to pass at the same time, when Gog comes against the land of Israel," says the Lord GOD, "that My fury will show in My face. so all this happens as god has designed it then guess what happens - read on VS  21-23 - I will call for the sword , and I will bring to judgment , Iwill rain down on him. Vs 23 "Thus I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the LORD."'
those who ignore the plan of God and deny the scripture and fall under the lie of error and wrong doctrine will be amazed and dazed at the great things God is going to do

What is going on

There is a little saying about kids today  "Buy them books and send them to school, they sell the books and burn down the school."
I have been pondering the state of the Church in the eyes of the youth. Here are a few observations. those who are between the ages of 13-19 are becoming less and less interested in the Church and its operational guide the Bible. Whether they are bored with it all or just not interested, they appear to be drifting further to the social side rather than the applicational side of what it means to be a "born again believer".  Not all of them mind you, there are some who have aspirations of walking with the Lord and serving Him, yet there are many who see this as a nonfactor in their lives and don't really believe that the Bible has any merit for them or there future. In other words they are not really engaged to the Eschatology contained with in it. Imagine they see there is no validity in Matthew 24, Ezekiel 38,39, the book of Revelation, they are  just a deranged fiction, biased allegory at best.
How depressing, the truth of the word is being replaced with "we are the world" and "social works programs" to make this a better place to live. The ideology though sounding relevant, is nothing more than the gerbil on a exercise week, moving but getting nowhere, meanwhile all the things that compromise the Bible, God and living for Him are compromised, watered down and seen as antique and obsolete for the world today.
After these observations I have come to the conclusion, " THE END IS NEAR!"
