Are These The "Last Days?"





Well, the rapture didn't occur last Saturday but it is still coming. It won't come on October 21st either, (the newly revised date from the same man). Yes, it will happen, eventually. Right now we need to focus on praying for those poor souls that have gone through the floods, tornados and what have you lately.
 All these weather events this year, starting with the earthquake & tsunami in Japan, have been greatly enhanced over what we have experienced in previous years. & Don't forget the various wars going on around the globe!
Remember, it tells us in the Bible that, these types of signs that are occurring are just the beginning. Still, all of these events work together for the good of believers!
"For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestiliences, and earthquakes in divers places." All these are just the BEGINNING of sorrows." Matthew 24: 7-8.
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28.
Keep the faith brothers and sisters!!

The World Won't end Tomorrow!

 
                                              








 Every so often, someone goes out on a limb to proclaim "special knowledge" of the end of  the world, or the "Rapture", which is really not the same thing. The rapture is when Jesus Christ returns for we believers still on earth and we will be caught up to meet Him in the air. "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and  great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other." Matthew 24:30 & 31. That won't happen tomorrow either, for "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." Matthew 24:36
  When it does happen all souls on earth will know at the same time. "For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man." Matthew 24:27. In other words when lightning strikes, everything is visible all around to everyone! No one will have to be told a thing.
  As believers we all look forward tom our Lords' return, but there is no soul alive on earth with this advance knowledge of the event!! It is our duty to remain vigilant though, in order to be prepared for His coming because
"But understand this: If the owner of the house had know at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect Him." Matthew 24: 43 & 44.
 In fact this same gentleman made a similar prediction in 1994, what happened then? At least they are fellow Christians, they are simply wrong about the date & time.
Well, enough said.

   May God bless you all in Christ Jesus!

National Day Of Prayer!!




On May 5, the National Day Of Prayer will be celebrated. Our prayers are so many, there are tons of people in need in a host of situations all around the world...we can't be dis-heartened though.
 "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone: for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth." 
1st Timothy 2:1-4

We serve a Mighty God look towards Him!!
 In Christ Jesus
