 END OF DAYS

There is coming a time, and it seems closer now than farther away, when a world “leader” will arise at the culmination of the chaos that we see brewing all around us today. He will promise peace and safety for the whole world IF ONLY the nations will surrender their sovereignty to him. His claim to being able to provide world peace will be preceded with sensory-overwhelming signs, miracles and wonders. These phenomena will not confirm anything he claims, but will proceed his claims so as to cast a spell of awe over the peoples of the earth.

In direct contrast, the miracles done by Jesus Christ and by the Holy Spirit through the church down through the ages have been manifested to confirm the Word of God proclaimed. Jesus Christ even did many miracles away from the crowds to not call attention to Himself. True Holy Spirit signs and miraculous wonders will always point to Jesus Christ as the Messiah, the only Savior of humanity.

The demonic signs and wonders done by the world “leader” I referred to will not point to Jesus Christ at all. They will be done to attempt to reinforce the claim of this rising “leader” that he is, in fact, God come to earth to save it. The deception will be swallowed by most because they have refused to love the Truth that has already been revealed in Jesus Christ.

Thessalonians 2:9-12 “ This man will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and signs and miracles.  He will use every kind of evil deception to fool those on their way to destruction, because they refuse to love and accept the Truth that would save them. So, God will cause them to be greatly deceived, and they will believe these lies. Then they will be condemned for enjoying evil rather than believing the truth.”

God’s Word makes it clear that those who are indeed on their way to eternal destruction are on that way BECAUSE they have refused to love God’s love for them; they have refused to accept God’s Truth that could save them. God’s Love and Truth grounded solely in the Life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ as the means of God’s grace for all who will believe Him. There is salvation in no other. There is forgiveness of sin and wickedness in no other.

God will “give over” those who refuse the Truth to a strong delusion, letting them go their own way which will end in eternal destruction. But they don’t have to experience that if they will only turn from self and turn to God that they might actually become whole and fully human again. There is still time left to repent, but time is running out. The day will come when there will not be time to turn, for Judgement will fall. Please, believe and receive what God has done for you in Christ Jesus!

 HE IS RISEN! IT IS FINISHED! After the Israelites had passed through the Red Sea by God opening the way for them to be saved, the whole of Pharoah's army, his horsemen and chariots pursued God's people into the opened way. Once they were all in, the waters flowed back into their place with suddenness and fury. Not one of the enemies survived. All perished in those waters. When Jesus Christ hung on the cross, all that sin contained, the full measure of the rebellion of mankind for all time, all the wickedness that was ever in human hearts were absorbed into the Lamb of God as He died our death, received our just judgement from God for all time, taking all that sin and death contained. In Him, sin and death died once and for all. They were overwhelmed, covered and drowned in the sea of His precious blood, poured out for the sin of the whole world. Not one enemy remained alive, all were stripped of their power to hold us in slavery to sin any longer. All their weapons were confis...

WHAT DO YOU BLESS? It would be an act of utter folly and disaster were I to choose to "bless" what God will not bless. God's wrath is set against anything and anyone that would try and hinder you becoming all He created you to be and to grow in by being united to Him through the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ. There is nothing arbitrary about the Word of God. He is very specific on what will make for life and what will not. Human life only becomes human life when the Holy Spirit becomes Life withing a believer. Being united to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the follower of Jesus becomes a new creation and begins to live Life as God intended. God begins the good work, and He is the One who will bring it to competition. Somethings will NEVER make for life. What God calls sin, missing the mark of what will make for life, is always sin regardless of what culture anywhere and anytime say to the contrary. Sin cannot save, heal, redeem, restore or remake...

 CONVICTION When the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin, He doesn't ask us to make it right. We can never add to what Jesus Christ has already done on the cross to deal with the totality of our sin. The Holy Spirit asks us to accept the truth, turn from sin and turn to the Lord. Then He will make it right. Remember Who our faith depends on from start to finish, that salvation is of the Lord alone. Laying aside every hindering weight and the sin that so easily trips us up (different for everyone), we are to run the race He has given us to run with perseverance, fixing our eyes on Jesus. He is the One upon Whom our faith depends on from start to finish. He will never run out of eyesight any more that a good shepherd would go ahead of the sheep he was leading where they couldn't see to follow. Hebrews 12:1-2 "Surrounded then as we are by a great cloud of witness to the life of faith, let us strip off everything that hinders us, as well as the sin which dogs our feet, and let us r...
