Mark 2 -- Jesus, what are you doing?
1 A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home. 2 They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. 3 Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. 4 Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” 6 Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves, 7 “Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
Really! What is Jesus doing, this is completely contrary to the Cancel culture. There is no forgiveness, only public humiliation followed by forcing the person to grovel on their knees and beg forgiveness followed by excommunication and boycotts.
8 Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, “Why are you thinking these things? 9 Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk’? 10 But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the man, 11 “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” 12 He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”
Wow! Cancel culture doesn’t heal anyone, instead you beat them up and leave them half dead on the side of the road. What new teaching is this that you don’t condemn people but teach them to forgive others. I suspect this paralyzed person was able to act on the Lord’s word immediately by forgiving the four who had carried him to the Lord, probably against his will.
Jesus Calls Levi and Eats With Sinners
13 Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came to him, and he began to teach them. 14 As he walked along, he saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,” Jesus told him, and Levi got up and followed him. 15 While Jesus was having dinner at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with him and his disciples, for there were many who followed him. 16 When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
What is He doing! Do these people have a vaccine passport? Of course not, they are sinners, that is how we know who the sinners are and who the “clean” ones are. This is dangerous, they could infect Him.
17 On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
Hmm, oh, good point. The world right now is all about condemning and shunning, not about healing and hearing.
Jesus Questioned About Fasting
18 Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were fasting. Some people came and asked Jesus, “How is it that John’s disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees are fasting, but yours are not?” 19 Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom fast while he is with them? They cannot, so long as they have him with them. 20 But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and on that day they will fast. 21 “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. Otherwise, the new piece will pull away from the old, making the tear worse. 22 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins.”
The world does not have the Bridegroom so they cannot understand the church. They cannot control the church, when they try the church will pull away and make the tear worse. They cannot contain the church, if they try they will be burst. If you are not aware when the Bridegroom is taken away or when He is coming, then you are part of the world. If you are not pulling away from the world then you are the old cloth. Bill Deblasio the mayor of NYC announced that on August 16th you will have to have a vaccine passport to use your gym, so I went to my gym and cancelled my membership. That is what it means to “pull away” and to make the tear worse. If we share the word about the Mark of the Beast with the world it will cause their whole effort to vaccinate everyone to burst. We are the new wine, they are the old wineskins and they cannot contain us or restrain us.
Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath
23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. 24 The Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” 25 He answered, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 26 In the days of Abiathar the high priest, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.” 27 Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28 So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath. Soon it will be illegal to hire someone or sell to someone who doesn’t have a vaccine passport. They may have to go through fields in need and eat dandelions or some other form of food. The situation is likely to become very desperate. But remember, regardless of what ridiculous rules the world makes Jesus is Lord, He is Lord of the tribulation. Follow Him, obey Him.

The Lion of the Tribe of Judah has roared
Amos 3:8 The lion has roared— who will not fear? The Sovereign Lord has spoken— who can but prophesy?
We speak because we fear the Lord, we fear the coming judgement, we fear coming short of God's glory, we fear that having spoken we will appear to have come short of the promised rest.
9 Proclaim to the fortresses of Ashdod and to the fortresses of Egypt: “Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria; see the great unrest within her and the oppression among her people.”
These are fortresses. That is the wrong attitude. You think that you are all powerful, you sit behind big walls with a big army with a big red button? Do you realize that all of that will cause you to be judged? Did you know the US has an elaborate, extensive and truly amazing tunnel network throughout the entire country? I have seen videos of 18 wheeler trucks driving for miles in these tunnels delivering goods. To who? I have heard the testimony of people from the military that these tunnels span the entire continent, that there are mag lev trains that can whisk you from one end to the other traveling around 300 mph. I have heard that the President of the US can access this from the Whitehouse. This is a fortress, so why are most tax payers ignorant of it? We paid for it, right? Yep, but this is not for us, this is for them. That is oppression among the people. This is true in Europe, Russia and China as well.
10 “They do not know how to do right,” declares the Lord, “who store up in their fortresses what they have plundered and looted.”
You think that because a few people in the US don't know that God who is omniscient doesn't know? You have sinned, you have looted, you have oppressed, and now you will have to face your God.
11 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “An enemy will overrun your land, pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses.”
I do believe this will happen any day in the US. I would not all be surprised if this attack takes place before the end of 2022.
12 This is what the Lord says: “As a shepherd rescues from the lion’s mouth only two leg bones or a piece of an ear, so will the Israelites living in Samaria be rescued, with only the head of a bed and a piece of fabric from a couch.”
The Lord has spoken that He will judge them for what they have done to the poor. They have plundered and looted the poor like an invading army, therefore an invading army will plunder and loot your strongholds. Everything is set up for Russia to hit us with a Pearl Harbor like surprise attack only this time they will use Nuclear torpedos, EMP's, suitcase nukes, and the entire thing will take an hour for the US to fall.

47 Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come unto her from the north, saith the Lord.
What are the graven images of Babylon? We have seen that the USA is the great Babylon in Revelation 18 and we have heard that there will be a surprise attack from Putin on the US and that they have been given the go ahead for this attack. A graven image is something that people worship. Yes, it could be money, it could be many other pictures. However, I am wondering if this would also include the graven images of Christmas, which is a Babylonian worship.
The attack comes from the North. That means either we are attacked from Canada or we are attacked from Russia sending missiles over the North pole. This also makes me think of Christmas, as "Santa Claus", ie Satan, is from the North Pole.
This prophecy talks of darkness, gross darkness, and black darkness. It has been noted that Christmas is the "darkest" time of the year and can be likened to midnight for the year.
Jeremiah 17:7-15 It will be a day like no other.
7 “Blessed [with spiritual security] is the man who believes and trusts in and relies on the Lord And whose hope and confident expectation is the Lord.
I went to the rally to “Stop the Steal” in Washington DC. It was blessed. They opened with prayers, sang hymns, sang God bless America, danced and praised the Lord. Many were there with verses from the Bible, some with signs that “Jesus saves” and they marched in an orderly fashion, being submissive to the police, to the Supreme court. All they wanted was truth and justice. Today we are seeing many things happen that were unimaginable just a few years ago. But if you are one who believes and trusts and relies on the Lord it is as though you are in a strong tower. We are not “hiding” I speak everyday, this is post #3,341 on Christmas eve. That works out to 5 posts per day, every day. I feel it is like chopping down a tree.
8 “For he will be [nourished] like a tree planted by the waters, That spreads out its roots by the river; And will not fear the heat when it comes; But its leaves will be green and moist. And it will not be anxious and concerned in a year of drought Nor stop bearing fruit.
One main focus for prayer was to protect and strengthen the whistleblowers. We are aware of the intimidation tactics used by these forces, the cancel culture, the threats of being terminated, and they knew that “we need to stand as one”. Some were on the forefront like Mike Lindell and we knew we had to stand with him so that he need not be concerned. His bank told him they were "debanking him" because they didn't want to be associated with him. This is a clear violation of federal law. I called their bank over this and I suspect a million others did as well.
9 “The heart is deceitful above all things And it is extremely sick; Who can understand it fully and know its secret motives? 10 “I, the Lord, search and examine the mind, I test the heart, To give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds.
There is a reason that widespread fraud on a massive scale is not done in these elections. If the vote is extremely close no one really knows who is going to win. If someone wins by 0.1% of the vote then really it was a toss up and no one is going to question it regardless of who wins. But if you have to manufacture millions of votes, that is too much to ask. They think that because they have created this “extensive voter fraud organization” that they control the vote. But then the Lord puts his thumb on the scale, He tests the heart, and their entire organization is crushed. What is coming out now is far worse than just a stolen election. Herbert Hoover started the “deep state” when he realized digging dirt on powerful people would help establish the power of the FBI. They are kept in line by mutual assured destruction. If one falls they all fall which is why they are so shrill about any suggestion that they are crooked.
11 “Like the partridge that hatches eggs which she has not laid, So is he who makes a fortune in ways that are unjust. It will be lost to him before his days are over, And in the end he will be [nothing but] a fool.”
The Bible says that the antichrist destroys the mighty but not by his power. He is simply at the right place at the right time and takes credit for it. Instead of giving all glory to God and being humbled by the process he instead thinks he is some kind of genius and in the end will appear as nothing but a fool. This is what happened to Hitler.
12 A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, Is the place of our sanctuary (the temple).
Jesus is Lord and will be like Solomon when He rules. The story about Solomon asking for a sword to divide the baby in half and give it to each woman established Solomon in the eyes of the people and caused them to fear. In the same way the judgement that the Lord displays at the end of this age will cause all those who would even consider evil to fear for 1,000 years. This is the one thing that no ruler has been able to figure out for all of human history, how do you separate the wicked from the faithful?
13 O Lord, the hope of Israel, All who abandon You will be shamed. Those who turn away on earth will be written down, Because they have abandoned the Lord, the fountain of living waters. 14 Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed; Save me and I will be saved, For You are my praise.
Joe Biden recently said now is the time for us to come together and be healed. No one takes him seriously. Thugs attacked women and children and old people in the streets of Washington DC after the rally and Biden was silent. Biden has supported the “defund the police” at a time when the riots and looting have become rampant. Homicides in some cities are up 20%. He says anyone who disagrees with him is on the side of segregationists and racists. So much for the "great unifier". But when the Lord takes over we will have healing, we will come together, we will have a leader that can lead us in a right path. There were over 500 violent protests by Black Lives Matter in the last year and yet they are described as 93% peaceful. There was one riot that happened at the same time as a “Stop the Steal” rally and it was called an insurrection with calls for tens of millions of Americans to be punished. What was so terrible? Many were charged with trespassing. One man had a confederate flag but he has been identified as a Democrat and was not part of the rally. A number of the people identified as having planned the riot have been identified as either Black Lives Matter members or members of anarchist groups also not part of the rally. It is becoming more and more obvious that the claims of “white supremacists” were false and are being exposed. What is coming out now is that this was a false flag event planned and operated by the Deep State, a number of 3 letter agencies as well as the mayor of DC and Pelosi.
15 Behold, they keep saying to me, “Where is the word of the Lord [that is, the disaster that you prophesied]? Let it come now!”
The pandemic was prophesied in Joel, 911 was prophesied in Habakkuk, the reason for the judgements at the end of the age were prophesied in Amos. Daniel gave us specific time frames down to the day. A great sign in the heavens was prophesied in Revelation 12 and was seen on September 23, 2017, the Festival of Trumpets. The Festivals of God are a shadow of the things to come. The Lord told us this time would be like the Days of Noah. During that time Noah was mocked for years and years as the ark was preparing. He was a preacher of righteousness that was seen as a funny punchline right up until the day Noah and his family entered the ark and closed the door. It is interesting that the Lord said they went about completely ignorant of the impending judgement right up until that day. Yet, it didn’t start raining for another week. At the end of this age our preaching of Jesus as the only savior will be seen as a joke right up until the day of the rapture. Even though the judgement may not come for another week (7 years), it will be the rapture that stops the world in its tracks. It will be “the day like no other”, it will be “the day of the Lord”.

Proverbs 20:1-5 -- Every Contact leaves a trace
1 Wine is a mocker and beer a brawler; whoever is led astray by them is not wise.
The mainstream media involves the news, but it also involves things like “the Kardashians” and “NFL football”. Why have Americans been asleep to the steal? They have been drunk and befuddled by the “entertainment media”. Imagine getting into a brawl over a game played by multi millionaires. A game that in no way shape or form impacts your life. How are people befuddled by this stuff? I like football, I like basketball, but in reality I could care less about Lebron or any of the rest.

What happened to Liz Cheney? She was elected by Wyoming to the Congress, she was supposed to be a leader of the Republican party yet she decided to vote for impeachment without looking at evidence or considering that 75% of the people in Wyoming voted for Trump. The people of Wyoming were outraged calling her and calling the state republican party. Her website crashed, her voice mail is full, she doesn’t answer her phone, she hasn’t responded. So various counties have passed a resolution to censor her and to have her resign! She was only in office for a few weeks! Liz Cheney is not the Lion, the Lion is the people of Wyoming who she was elected to represent. Recently they passed the Omnibus spending bill for $1.7 trillion. An online poll on Twitter had 71% of respondents being against passing that bill. Clearly the House and the Senate do not represent the will of the people.
3 It is to one’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.
No one was quicker to quarrel than Nancy Pelosi and the squad who wrote up the articles of impeachment without even seeing the evidence. Since they did that evidence came out that a key witness implicating Trump supporters is actually a BLM and ANTIFA activist who organized and planned the riot. Evidence came out that this riot was perpetrated by people who planned it prior to Trump’s speech and didn’t even attend Trump’s speech. Video has shown Trump supporters pulling people away from trying to break into the Capitol and calling on police to call for backup to put a stop to it.
4 Sluggards do not plow in season; so at harvest time they look but find nothing.
Our hats are off to all those hard working people who diligently spent 16 hours a day finding the evidence of voter fraud and painstakingly going through videos of the event at the Capitol to untangle the web of lies and deceit. We have learned that some police actually let the rioters into the building. We have learned that some of these people carrying out the riot are connected to Hillary Clinton and have been trained by the US government to carry out false flag attacks. Now it is harvest time, we have caught FTX with the money laundering scheme of this "uniparty". They send 100 billion to Ukraine and they in return send a few billion back to pay for their campaigns. We discovered the way they stole the election in Arizona by printing out ballots a tiny bit too small so the machine would not read them. We can see the lies of Texas governor in sealing the border. He put up containers to block the access prior to the election and after the election they remove them. We can see the lies of those who pushed the vaccine, we now know that those who are vaccinated are 3x more likely to get sick and 4x more likely to die than those who are not vaccinated. All of this was hard work plowing the ground so that we could now have this harvest.
5 The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out.
This is where crooks make a major blunder, they think they can hide in the shadows, lurk in the deep. We have developed tremendous techniques that can expose lies. The basic principle in forensics is that every contact leaves a trace. You can’t steal hundreds of thousands of votes without leaving a lot of evidence that can be traced back to you. They don’t control the narrative, they don’t control the media as much as they want to. If this were Communist China you can sort of get away with it because no other story is allowed to get out and no other investigation is allowed to take place. But trying to do this before you completely control the media is overreach.

Break up the Fallow ground
3 For thus saith the Lord to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns.
Fallow ground refers to farmland that has not been sown allowing it to recuperate. What is the fallow ground for the church? They do not talk about prophecy and they do not talk about the rapture. This is our fallow ground, approximately one fourth of the Bible is essentially off limits to most churches.
4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
You are to circumcise on the 8th day, it is a new beginning. There are only two holy convocations given to us for an 8th day celebration. The first is the Feast of Tabernacles, ti is the last great day of that feast, not unlike a wedding celebration which is a week long. The other is the Lord's table which celebrates the Lord's death and resurrection, and is to be celebrated on the 8th day. There is a third feast and that is Hanukkah which was celebrated because they were not allowed to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles. So the eighth day is quite interesting, a wedding feast is also the same day you circumcise males who are dedicated to the Lord.
5 Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, Blow ye the trumpet in the land: cry, gather together, and say, Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the defenced cities.
This is the message of the watchmen. The Lord is coming for the Bride so therefore circumcise your heart otherwise you will see His fury come forth like fire. The church will be circumcised and you will see the Lord cut off the fleshly part. The apostate church will be cut off and thrown in the fire.
6 Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.
Wow, this is the same thing all the prophets have been saying. Directly north of Jerusalem is Moscow. Likewise for the US, if we are attacked from the North pole that also would be Russia. Look at this prophecy it is as though God is telling us that when the flesh is cut off the knife will come from the North Pole! Is this a reference to Christmas?
7 The lion is come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of the Gentiles is on his way; he is gone forth from his place to make thy land desolate; and thy cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant.
The Lion of the tribe of Judah has gone up from his thicket. The Lord may use the bear to attack, but ultimately this judgement is from the Lord.
8 For this gird you with sackcloth, lament and howl: for the fierce anger of the Lord is not turned back from us.
This is the message of the watchmen, repent, prepare to meet your God, forsake the materialism and worldliness and lusts of the flesh and of the eyes.
9 And it shall come to pass at that day, saith the Lord, that the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes; and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall wonder.
What we have seen in Ukraine is not making the heart of the king to perish. No one is astonished. Maybe at this point there are many prophets wondering about Ezekiel 38 and some other more recent prophecies. But what is about to happen will cause many in power to have a heart attack and to be astonished. Pearl Harbor made us angry, it didn't cause us to have a heart attack. Maybe 911 did cause our princes to be astonished. So we are going step by step to fulfill this prophecy.
10 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! surely thou hast greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall have peace; whereas the sword reacheth unto the soul.
This is not the Antichrist saying it. Do not think this is referring to the Antichrist confirming the covenant. Nor can you refer to Thessalonians where Paul says "when they say peace and security", no, this is the Lord saying it. When were we told that we would have peace by the Lord? The angels told us the shepherds this when Jesus was born. When were we told that the sword would reach unto the soul? Simeon told Mary this when Jesus was circumcised on the 8th day.
We are told this every year as we recite the Christmas story.

Who is saying Peace and safety?
1Thessalonians 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
The Day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night. We are told in the Bible that Satan is the thief. So the Day of the Lord comes when Satan with the Antichrist will come as a counterfeit Christ to deceive the world and exercise his full dominion over the world. I thought that the whole world lies in the evil one? Not exactly, Jesus paid the price to redeem those out of the age of darkness and into the kingdom of light. The age of grace is like a grace period on a debt. Yes, there is a debt from sin, but Jesus death and redeeming blood has given us a grace period. When that grace period is over then the debt of sin will have to be fully paid by those who are not redeemed by the blood. Like a vicious creditor Satan will come and take everything away.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
This is not the antichrist saying "Peace and safety", no this is those upon whom the sudden destruction is going to come. The big quote that describes 2022 is "Normal is not coming back, Jesus is". Everyday the situation gets worse and worse and worse. So how, at this time, will they say "peace and security"? For hundreds of years we interpreted this as the Antichrist confirming the covenant with the many, but that is not what this is saying. This is referring to the woman who is with child and goes into travail, they are the ones upon whom sudden destruction comes and they are the ones saying "peace and security". When does the church say that?
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
Compare this with the Lord's word to Sardis in Revelation 3, that if they didn't repent and dig into His word as they did at the beginning then He would come as a thief and they wouldn't know the hour. When does the Protestant church say "Peace and security"? They say this at Christmas every year, that is when they say it. All these watchmen have been looking and wondering when the Lord is coming? Paul tells us it is when the dead church says "peace and security", and that is at Christmas.

I will destroy the altars of Bethel
13 “Hear this and testify against the descendants of Jacob,” declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty. 14 “On the day I punish Israel for her sins, I will destroy the altars of Bethel; the horns of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground. 15 I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses adorned with ivory will be destroyed and the mansions will be demolished,” declares the Lord.
This is talking about a “golden calf” that Jeroboam set up for the people to worship. interestingly down by Wall Street they have a bronze bull indicating a bull market. The stock market has several sources of power, of course you have the major stock indexes like S&P 500, and you have the bond index, you have the commodities market, and you have currency markets. These will all be cut off. The stock market is currently down about 30% since the virus hit and it appears to be primed to drop another 40%. The US has passed major stimulus packages, about 6xs what we did during the Mortgage crisis, this is inflationary and will destroy the bond market. The collapse of the oil market as well as the meat packing plants will crash the commodities market and the currency market will be useless as this is worldwide, there is no safe haven.
This is a reference to Jacob worshipping this calf as an idol that Jeroboam set up. We see this today with the Prosperity gospel and people teaching that gold chains, luxury cars and mansions are all evidence that you have been blessed by God. They are worshipping money.
The horns of the altar signify the power. A bull will use its horns to gore you and kill you. There are horns to this worship of money. Getting into debt will let you see the horns. They can foreclose on you, seize your property, even throw you in jail. These horns will be cut off. Suppose you owe the bank $1 million and you have no way to pay. They can come in and gore you. However, now suppose the US dollar collapses and is worth nothing. Then $1 million is worth nothing. No judge or court is going to waste their time listening to a bankrupt bank argue that they want something that is worth nothing. When the US dollar collapses all debt also collapses and these horns get cut off.
Cutting down the winter house along with the summer house, the houses adorned with ivory and the mansions. People who have two homes are wealthy. If your house is adorned with Ivory you are clearly wealthy, and if you have a mansion you are really wealthy. So what happens when the US dollar collapses? There are no police because they are not getting paid. There are a lot of unemployed people who are starving and will become roving gangs of thieves. If you are going to loot a house which house do you pick? First you pick the empty houses, people with two houses will be leaving one of them empty. Second you pick the houses with valuables in them. The problem with being rich is you have workers in your house who fix stuff and at the same time see that you are rich. Now that society collapses and the police collapse these same people know where to go and which houses have things worth stealing. Finally you plunder the mansions. The mansions look like small castles and usually will have a few servants. However, once the dollar collapses you can't pay the servants, but they know everything about that house. The gangs will pick it clean but then they will demolish it blaming the collapse of the economy on the rich and powerful who are the ones who live in mansions.

A Sign unto you
Luke 2:12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
The shepherds arrive to a barn and what do they see? A baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, the same strips of cloth they use to wrap baby lambs when they are born to prevent them from being hurt. A passover lamb has to be without blemish, so the priests would help the shepherds when the lambs are first born to wrap them up to keep them from being hurt or blemished. Not only so but this little baby lamb is lying in a manger to keep him safe. To the Shepherds this looked exactly like a lamb that they might have which they are preparing to be a Passover lamb for sacrifice. That is the sign.
What they saw was God's lamb, the lamb that God was going to offer to pay for our sins and the sins of the world. We have this huge debt, we can't pay it, Satan is about to come and foreclose on everything we have and are and then God steps forward with out payment and this is what the shepherds saw. The age of grace was that grace period you have when you are late with a payment. Why do you think Satan hates the blood of Jesus? Everyone who receives this blood has their debt to Satan paid in full.
If we have a debt to Satan then we must have received something from him? That was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil where we learn how to be "like God". The price had to be paid that same day (1,000 years) which was our life. We traded this life with God for this tree that teaches us how to have a counterfeit life. On day 2 we were late with the payment. That was the day of the flood (during the second thousand years). Most people did die but Noah found favor with God and He made a deal with Noah (a covenant) to pay the price for the sin. This is called a white knight, God came in to rescue us out of bankruptcy. The Covenant was made and confirmed on the third day and payment was made at the end of the fourth day. For the last two days we have had a period of grace where you can receive the Lord's redemption to save your soul, but now that period is over.

Pattern is Prophecy
I know that Hitler is a forerunner of the Antichrist, so I wondered were there any forerunners of the watchmen?
Edgar Mowrer, the Chicago Daily News correspondent, kept frantically trying to warn readers and the world, "What he's saying about the Jews is serious. Don't underestimate him."
Others held back -- after all, Germany really was a very prestigious reporting assignment. They felt constrained and didn't want to jeopardize their situation.

Edgar Mowrer, the Chicago Daily News correspondent who was basically run out of Germany in September of 1933, kept advising Jews, "Get out of Germany!" There's a scene in the book where Mowrer is having lunch with group of Jewish bankers in Germany, and it becomes clear that each of them has given some money to Nazi Party at the urging of non-Jewish industrialists. They were told it would be a way of protecting themselves a bit, and they believed it. Just like a lot of Americans, the German Jews thought, "This can't really be happening."

Hitler becomes chancellor in 1933
Then during the next six years Jews felt the effects of nearly 400 decrees and regulations restricting every aspect of life. I think it is clear that for us in the US this began two years ago with Biden and his record setting number of Presidential decrees. In 1933 they began imprisoning political prisoners and that is what we are seeing with the January 6th hearing.

Edgar Mowrer, the Chicago Daily News correspondent who was basically run out of Germany in September of 1933, kept advising Jews, "Get out of Germany!" There's a scene in the book where Mowrer is having lunch with group of Jewish bankers in Germany, and it becomes clear that each of them has given some money to Nazi Party at the urging of non-Jewish industrialists. They were told it would be a way of protecting themselves a bit, and they believed it. Just like a lot of Americans, the German Jews thought, "This can't really be happening."

Hitler becomes chancellor in 1933
Then during the next six years Jews felt the effects of nearly 400 decrees and regulations restricting every aspect of life. I think it is clear that for us in the US this began two years ago with Biden and his record setting number of Presidential decrees. In 1933 they began imprisoning political prisoners and that is what we are seeing with the January 6th hearing.
I would compare Hitler invading Poland to Russia invading the Ukraine.
Over the next couple of years from 1939 to 1941 Germany establishes forced labor camps, Ghettos, Jews were forced to wear identifying armbands, property was confiscated, and it soon became impossible to flee Germany.
Germany signed a German -- Soviet non aggression pact in August of 1939.
I would compare that to the BRICS agreements and the agreements between Saudi Arabia, Russia and China to sell oil in gold backed security. This was August of 2022.
December 7, 1941 Japan attacks Pearl Harbor and that was how the US entered this war. So I believe there will be a surprise attack on the US similar to that.
However, I think we have been leading up to this conflict since 2007. So just as many see the instability after WWI and the great depression leading to WWII I see the instability after the cold war and the mortgage meltdown leading to this war.

The fat cows will also be judged
Amos 4:1 Hear this word, you cows of Bashan on Mount Samaria, you women who oppress the poor and crush the needy and say to your husbands, “Bring us some drinks!” 2 The Sovereign Lord has sworn by his holiness: “The time will surely come when you will be taken away with hooks, the last of you with fishhooks.[a] 3 You will each go straight out through breaches in the wall, and you will be cast out toward Harmon,” declares the Lord. 4 “Go to Bethel and sin; go to Gilgal and sin yet more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three years. 5 Burn leavened bread as a thank offering and brag about your freewill offerings—boast about them, you Israelites, for this is what you love to do,” declares the Sovereign Lord.
These are the fattest, biggest cows in a land that worships golden cows. They are described as women, they are the “Kardashians” of the ancient world. They will get the hook. They will no longer be able to afford or justify their lifestyle, they’ll lose their house, their job, no longer will stadiums of 70,000 people support their debauchery. All of their charitable donations, free will offerings, are major press events where they can brag and boast about them. But with this contagion and collapse of the economy we’ll see these fat cows each go through every breach in the wall to get to their safe “villas” in the mountains. All of them will “head for the hills”.

Mark 3 If you want to be healed you need to take a stand, is it right to do good?
There is an interpretation of the four gospels that Matthew is the message to those who will be the last to be taken during the end of the age (the first shall be last and the last first), Mark is for lukewarm church which will be taken in the middle of the tribulation and Luke is for those who are raptured at the beginning of the tribulation. Therefore we see some interesting differences in this section from Matthew and Luke.
1 Another time Jesus went into the synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there.
In Matthew we get an outsider's perspective of Jesus and His disciples in a field picking grains and we look on this scene and ask how come His disciples are breaking the sabbath. That is missing in Mark because these ones are not picking the grains. They are not looking at little words sprinkled throughout the Bible that open up the teaching on the end of the age. In Mark this teaching begins with the man with the shriveled hand. They have been told in this church that “no one knows the day nor the hour” and so they have allowed that teaching to cause their hand to be shriveled.
2 Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath. 3 Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Stand up in front of everyone.” 4 Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent.
Stand up in front of everyone. If you want to get healed you will need to take a stand, not about the rapture, not about eschatology, not about any of that. You will need to take a stand on one basic question: is it lawful to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill? Right now we are seeing some incredibly weird laws. One year ago Trump was impeached because of an allegation that he was asking the leader of Ukraine to investigate Hunter Biden for corruption as a way to influence the election. This accusation caused the media and the Democrats to become outraged over the implication, yet in September we were given physical evidence that Hunter Biden had sold influence to his father who was Vice President at the time and not one word. No outrage, in fact nothing other than to do everything in their power to ignore it. A week prior to the election Hillary Clinton is very vocal and public that Joe Biden is not to concede “under any circumstances”. This was the rallying cry to the Democrats, bringing tears to many of their eyes as they heard this. One week later they are outraged that Trump has not conceded because they are appealing alleged voter fraud in the key states that determined this election. The mainstream media says there is no evidence of voter fraud to which the President’s press secretary holds up 234 signed affidavits alleging 11,000 incidents of voter fraud. So they change that to there is no evidence of “widespread voter fraud” to which Giuliani responds with evidence of several million votes for Trump that were either deleted or switched to Joe Biden by the Dominion software used to tally the votes, software that Clinton, Pelosi and Feinstein have an ownership stake in and which also has ties to China. At the end of the age a simple question that you must stand up for: is it legal to do good or to do evil? During the campaign right up to election day the media condemned Trump rallies as “super spreader events” then the very next day they are in the streets in massive rallies celebrating Biden’s apparent victory without a peep from the media. During the lockdown every large gathering was made illegal except for BLM protests. These were advertised via all the social media platforms. The organization raised over a billion dollars, not for charitable work, but for the purpose of electing Democrats. But the day after the election a woman starts a Facebook page to set up protests calling for scrutiny over possible election fraud and Facebook shuts it down because it could provoke violence. The “stop the steal” rallies are distinctive for their protestors kneeling prayer, but they are outlawed by Facebook because they might provoke violence. Yet they never outlawed the BLM protests that were often marked with riots and looting. Take a stand, is it lawful to save life or to kill? “But they remained silent”. How can you not answer that simple question?
