Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

Day of Redemption = Rapture

Many of the verse references in this blog refer to the Day of the Lord, a broader topic than just the rapture. I didn't want to make that the focus of the blog because then you get caught up into 7 years and 10 years and 42 months and all kinds of charts that I think are less significant than the key point. The key point is to be taken in the first rapture.

However, many people don't like the term rapture because it is vague and generally is found in allegorical language talking about Noah, Lot, Ruth, etc. I agree with that, you should be focused on the black and white teachings and then use the allegories and types to fill in and support.

So then the better title would be "Day of Redemption". However, there has been so much taught about redemption having taken place at the cross of Christ that I felt this would be confusing to people. In a wedding the betrothal is a redemption but the wedding is the day of redemption, it is the full redemption and it is the redemption of our bodies.

So to me a marriage is split into two very similar days: the betrothal and the wedding. Both are referred to as the redemption, but "the day of redemption" that we eagerly await is obviously not the one accomplished at Calvary but rather the rapture.

Isaiah 56 -- Maintain justice and do what is right

1 This is what the Lord says: “Maintain justice and do what is right, for my salvation is close at hand and my righteousness will soon be revealed.

This is what I heard over and over again at the Gettysburg hearing and the Michigan hearing and the Arizona hearing. All the witnesses were telling the legislators and warning the legislators to maintain justice and do what is right. I would add to that warning that the Lord’s salvation is close at hand and will soon be revealed. This is now only a few months later and we have discovered widespread fraud in Arizona, they will have to decertify the presidential election and they want to do a full audit of all the candidates because you may find the senate and congressional elections will be decertified as well. Wisconsin is also starting an audit. New Hampshire is starting an audit. Massachusetts is still in the process of lawsuits, Michigan has unveiled evidence of fraud and will have to do an audit as will Georgia and ultimately Pennsylvania.

2 Blessed is the one who does this— the person who holds it fast, who keeps the Sabbath without desecrating it, and keeps their hands from doing any evil.”

Not all of us are witnesses to the crime, not all of us are on the legal team. But all of us can “hold the line and hold it fast”! Everyone of us can keep the Lord’s Sabbath to stand for righteousness and lift up our hands to the Lord. While doing this we need to keep our hands from doing evil, this is not a BLM rally, this is not an ANTIFA rally, this is not an opportunity for rioting and looting.

3 Let no foreigner who is bound to the Lord say, “The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”

One of the most moving testimonies was from a poll observer who was an immigrant with an accent. English was obviously not her first language yet she was standing strong with a backbone. For all the claims that the Republican party is racist you saw a great diversity of all ethnicities of people reflecting the diversity of this country.

And let no eunuch complain, “I am only a dry tree.” 4 For this is what the Lord says: “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, who choose what pleases me and hold fast to my covenant— 5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls a memorial and a name better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that will endure forever.

We are seeing politicians who formerly were unknown standing strong. These unknown politicians have now vaulted to the forefront of the electorate and have become candidates named for possible governor. Meanwhile Liz Cheney was removed from leadership, Gavin Newsom is being recalled, Andrew Cuomo is being investigated, and it goes on and on. So just as the electorate can be motivated to come out and vote for a candidate they can also be motivated to come out to sign referendums to throw people out of office.

6 And foreigners who bind themselves to the Lord to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord, and to be his servants, all who keep the Sabbath without desecrating it and who hold fast to my covenant— 7 these I will bring to my holy mountain and give them joy in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar; for my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

This has been one thing that has been amazing. There have been foreigners from all over the world who are participating. A Taiwan news agency goes to the rallies and interviews people. Statisticians around the world have looked into the data and discovered indications of fraud. The world is watching, the world cares, and they are praying.

8 The Sovereign Lord declares— he who gathers the exiles of Israel: “I will gather still others to them besides those already gathered.”

God’s Accusation Against the Wicked

9 Come, all you beasts of the field, come and devour, all you beasts of the forest!

Our leaders and representatives have opened the US to be devoured by “beasts”.

10 Israel’s watchmen are blind, they all lack knowledge; they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they lie around and dream, they love to sleep.

Where were they when they bought a voting system that is designed to steal elections? Are they blind? Are they stupid? How did they stay silent when every kind of safeguard was removed from this election with unconstitutional provisions. Laws that had to be passed by the legislature or go through a referendum were pushed through by the governors’ mandate? We just learned that Arizona did not have administrative access to the voting machines, they allowed their responsibility for this election to be handled by a private company.

11 They are dogs with mighty appetites; they never have enough. They are shepherds who lack understanding; they all turn to their own way, they seek their own gain.

Yes, the corruption is widespread, it is the only explanation for their actions before the election and since.

12 “Come,” each one cries, “let me get wine! Let us drink our fill of beer! And tomorrow will be like today, or even far better.”

This is the day of the Lord. Tomorrow will be better if you stand up for the Lord, but if you are a brute beast led about by your appetite then you will be slaughtered during the coming tribulation.

2Thessalonians 2:9 The coming [of the lawless one, the antichrist] is through the activity and working of Satan and will be attended by great power and with all sorts of [pretended] miracles and signs and delusive marvels—[all of them] lying wonders—

10 And by unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing (going to perdition) because they did not welcome the Truth but refused to love it that they might be saved.

11 Therefore God sends upon them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false,

12 In order that all may be judged and condemned who did not believe in [who refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely on] the Truth, but [instead] took pleasure in unrighteousness.

Zechariah 13 I have been crucified with Christ

In the previous chapter we saw the mourning with men on one side and women on the other. This is reminiscent of Mount Sinai where God commanded them to make themselves correct and to not come near a woman. The Hebrew means to not put yourself in the position to sin. To not be in a position to sin is to be in a position to know the truth. But what happened? They made a golden calf and then the men and women began to dance, to flirt, to make frivolous with one another. They disobeyed this commandment. In the previous chapter we had king (David), prophet (Nathan) and priest (house of Levi) and finally those from the house of Shimei (the last family in order of the house of Levi) and then all the people.

1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem [to cleanse them from] sin and uncleanness.

This is a fountain for immersion, for baptism. Immersion signifies a desire to obey and serve God and it identifies us with the Lord Jesus. When the Jews prepare for the day of Atonement they have a great day of immersion.

2 And in that day, says the Lord of hosts, I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will remove from the land the [false] prophets and the unclean spirit.

The false prophets and unclean spirits are closely interrelated. It is no small thing when the NYT, or CNN or Facebook or Twitter are caught lying. These companies are working together with the unclean spirits. Project 1619 and CRT is a work of the unclean spirits, they are doctrines of demons teaching us to hate one another and fight with one another. The word of God is a fountain that cleans us from this uncleanness.

3 And if anyone again appears [falsely] as a prophet, then his father and his mother who bore him shall say to him, You shall not live, for you speak lies in the name of the Lord; and his father and his mother who bore him shall thrust him through when he prophesies.

The Lord was thrust through on the crucifixion because of the testimony of false prophets. But for eternity it is the false prophets who get the judgement. This is like the proverb that a curse unfounded is like a bird that will not roost. The false prophets dug a pit for the Lord but they will be the ones that fall into it. In the same way the false prophets of mainstream media and the tech giants will also fall into the pit they dug.

4 And in that day the [false] prophets shall each be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies, nor will he wear a hairy or rough garment to deceive,

Today we can see many televangelists and prosperity gospel prophets who wear the clothes to indicate their prosperity which they equate with God’s blessing. It is the phony baloney garments of scam artists.

5 But he will [deny his identity and] say, I am no prophet. I am a tiller of the ground, for I have been made a bond servant from my youth.

These are the “deplorables”, the blue collar workers. The same people that mocked, ridiculed and insulted these ones will later try to associate themselves with them.

6 And one shall say to him, What are these wounds on your breast or between your hands? Then he will answer, Those with which I was wounded [when disciplined] in the house of my [loving] friends.

Hold everything, this refers to the Lord Jesus. Did these false prophets get converted? Does this show that all of us when we were dead in our offenses and sins were false prophets? Think about this, the Lord suffered these blows in the house of his friends? He came to save Israel and they crucified Him. That is what a true prophet does, they tell you the truth, even if you don’t want to hear it and even if you are killing people who tell that to you. I recently saw that they are putting Trump supporters on a no fly list. They want to label all 75 million people who voted for Trump as white supremacists (the Military has approved a high level position for a person that holds that view and whose job is to eliminate “extremists” from the military, those who are conservatives and who voted for Trump).

7 Awake, O sword, against My shepherd and against the man who is My associate, says the Lord of hosts; smite the shepherd and the sheep [of the flock] shall be scattered, and I will turn back My hand and stretch it out again upon the little ones [of the flock].

We know this is what happened to the Lord. He was a coworker with God to bring redemption to Israel. This chapter is brilliant, we begin with the false prophets who are utterly shunned and rejected, even by their parents and then it seems the Lord appears to be one of them. The befuddled Israelites smite and kill Him, perhaps thinking they are serving God just like the parents of the false prophets. This is what we are seeing today, the world is acting cult like, as though they have been bewitched and they are accusing all Bible believing Christians of being a cult and the ones with hate speech. They are using this to justify the persecution and ultimately killing of these Christians.

8 And in all the land, says the Lord, two-thirds shall be cut off and perish, but one-third shall be left alive.

Two thirds of God’s people will perish during Jacob’s trouble, the last days. People use the word “decimate” as though it is horrible, they were “decimated”. To decimate is to kill one tenth. At the time of Hitler they estimate that about one third of all the Jews worldwide were killed. So if anyone thinks that this is absurd, it could never be this bad the Holocaust proves it could be. However, as bas as the holocaust was it will be twice as bad at the end of the age.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined and will test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will hear and answer them. I will say, It is My people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.

Israel is going to go through this difficult time. Prophecies like this make some interpret the Bible as though all believers must go through this fire. What really confuses people is that there are several paths to salvation. Israel’s path is not the same as that of the Christians and the Christians have both first fruits and the general in gathering. How do we know? Look at the second half of this verse, they have to go through all of this fire before “they will call on My name”. It isn’t until this tribulation that they say “the Lord is my God”. So if you are calling on the Lord’s name and you are proclaiming that the Lord is my God how could this refer to you?

It could, remember what Paul said, “I have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer I that live but Christ lives in me”. We are tripartite, Body, Soul and Spirit. Our flesh and our self are put on the cross (degenerate Body and corrupt soul). That is two thirds of our being. If you, like Paul, have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer you that live but Christ lives in you then why would you need to go through this? If you have already been refined like gold and silver it would be a waste to do it again. If you receive the word of God by faith and obey the Lord to walk the narrow way that lead to life then you will be refined prior to the end of the age. You will put yourself into the correct position to see the truth. You will rid yourself of false prophets. You will bear in your body the brands of Jesus.

Zechariah 13:9 The deplorables become the indispensables.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined and will test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will hear and answer them. I will say, It is My people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.

Isn't this awesome? At one point you were dead in your offenses and sins, you were in the world, you were one with those that crucified the Lord, you worshipped vain idols, you were manipulated by false prophets but then through this process of going through the fire you are transformed from being a "deplorable" to becoming "an indispensable". Wouldn't it be awesome if the Lord felt you were indispensable?

Isaiah 57:1-11 -- The righteous are taken away to be spared from evil

Right now in the US there is a great divide. The president exemplifies this divide. The news media has lost its credibility being accused of being “fake news”. People on either side of this divide see the other side as their enemy. The tea party with Sarah Palin was disrespected, mocked and ridiculed. This has caused an even greater animosity towards the media from those who feel their voices have not been heard. Their concerns are disrespected.

1 The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.

This chapter is going to discuss all kinds of outrageously unrighteous acts that have just taken place. People will often say “how can God allow this?” Instead you should realize that what happened to the righteous was mercy, that gives you an idea of how horrible the judgement will be on these crooks.

2 Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death.

If we are going to understand what is happening today we have to consider several critical events. First, the Clinton presidency passed NAFTA. It was a very big political issue where Perot made it very clear that if this is passed your manufacturing jobs will be sent across the border. That is exactly what happened. People with very good jobs in manufacturing became unemployed. Cities like Detroit became abandoned and were boarded up. People in their 40s and 50s lost the dignity of a job that can provide for their families. Overnight alcoholism and poverty swept through like a plague and they knew that this was done to them by Clinton. Yet when you listen to the media no one says a word, when you listen to the politicians no one says a word. Then a new station, Fox news shows up, and they are the only ones speaking to their pain. This was the first blow, but the second was even worse. The Mortgage crisis was not some accident. It was a manufactured crisis. Banks were writing mortgages that they knew would blow up in five years and end in default. They did this because before they blew up they were able to sell the debt to investment banks who then sold them to pension funds. The banks made very good money selling these mortgages. People would pay the $1,000+ monthly mortgage for 60 months before defaulting and losing the house. Once they lost the house it went back to the bank who could sell it again. They didn’t need down payments because they would get the $60,000 in monthly mortgages. The investment banks also got rich with commissions selling these mortgage backed securities to pension funds. Independent rating agencies like Moody’s would give these a triple A rating not because they were a safe bet but because if they didn’t they would lose the business from these huge investment banks. Those were the winners.

3 “But you—come here, you children of a sorceress, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes! 4 Who are you mocking? At whom do you sneer and stick out your tongue? Are you not a brood of rebels, the offspring of liars? 5 You burn with lust among the oaks and under every spreading tree; you sacrifice your children in the ravines and under the overhanging crags.

Let’s not forget that many more had their kids go to Iraq to fight because of Weapons of Mass destruction only to learn that the government lied to them about that as well. The same people who sacrifice your children in those ravines in Iraq are the ones who are willing to abort their own kids. It is foolish to think that anyone who would sacrifice their own kid to save money wouldn’t sacrifice your kid to get rich.

6 The idols among the smooth stones of the ravines are your portion; indeed, they are your lot. Yes, to them you have poured out drink offerings and offered grain offerings. In view of all this, should I relent?

However the losers in the mortgage crisis were people who had bought the houses. The bank had a legal obligation to explain the mortgage and represent these homeowners to protect their interest. They were criminally negligent in the handling of this responsibility. Nearly 10 million homeowners lost their homes. If you consider that there might be 3 or 4 people in that home you now have 30 or 40 million homeless people. In addition pension funds lost $5 trillion dollars as a result of this crisis. Again, they had trusted the rating agencies to tell them the truth, and they hadn’t, they also had been complicit in this crime. This is now the second time the government and all those who are legally responsible to watch out for the people scammed them. They have lost their jobs, their homes and their savings. So then, what does the government do about it? They don’t arrest a single person even though thousands had very clearly broken laws that were on the books. Instead they take tax payer money and bail out these banks who then give themselves bonuses.

7 You have made your bed on a high and lofty hill; there you went up to offer your sacrifices. 8 Behind your doors and your doorposts you have put your pagan symbols. Forsaking me, you uncovered your bed, you climbed into it and opened it wide; you made a pact with those whose beds you love, and you looked with lust on their naked bodies. 9 You went to Molek with olive oil and increased your perfumes. You sent your ambassadors far away; you descended to the very realm of the dead! 10 You wearied yourself by such going about, but you would not say, ‘It is hopeless.’ You found renewal of your strength, and so you did not faint.

Whenever the government had done anything the media had come out and presented the issues whether it was NAFTA or the Mortgage Crisis, and experts would get on and talk about how this would be good for the country. After the mortgage crisis they argued that the “Banks were too big to fail”. How do you think those who are now unemployed, homeless and who just lost their life savings are thinking? You think they will trust anything you say? Their kids were sent to die in phony wars, their houses were stolen by banks committing a crime and government covering it up, and their jobs were sent to other countries who had bribed our officials (Biden crime family, Clinton crime family and Kerry crime family).

11 “Whom have you so dreaded and feared that you have not been true to me, and have neither remembered me nor taken this to heart?

People began to hit the streets. Occupy Wall Street was the first sign. Young, college educated people who understood the corruption took to the streets. But then the shooting at Sandy Hook took place. The most heinous and outrageous act demanding something be done. The vast majority of Americans felt that legislation concerning guns needed to be passed. But they were unable to pass legislation. Why do you think these tens of millions of Americans who had lost their job, home and savings based on actions the government had taken wouldn’t trust the government to pass gun legislation?

Isaiah 57:11b-21 No Justice No Peace

Is it not because I have long been silent that you do not fear me?

Meanwhile terrible atrocities like Trayvon Martin were piling up. How is it that a teenager walking home in his neighborhood could be shot and killed and the killer is not charged with a crime?

12 I will expose your righteousness and your works, and they will not benefit you.

YouTube exploded on the scene and one killing after another was exposed. Between Facebook, Twitter and YouTube the mainstream media was bypassed and made to appear irrelevant.

13 When you cry out for help, let your collection of idols save you! The wind will carry all of them off, a mere breath will blow them away.

Videos, blogs, forums and talk shows fanned the flames and the outrage grew. The judgement is falling hard on the Banks. Defaults on mortgages have skyrocketed. Due to the pandemic there are 40 million who cannot pay their rent, a third of small businesses may wind up going bust, shopping malls, theaters, and stadiums have all had to close. The only solution is for the banks to forgive the debt, otherwise we will have a homeless crisis to rival the great depression. And the judgement is falling hard on foreign trade which is down about 30%. With a pandemic raging in Mexico the border is shut tighter than ever before. Then with Biden he has thrown it wide open, set up super spreader centers where people are packed in together and then bused and flown all over the country. People ignored climate change for the sake of the oil industry. Our foreign policy of having wars in the middle east are all about protecting our oil industry and promoting our military industrial complex. The two states that depend the most on these industries are Texas and California. These are also the two states being hit the hardest with fires and floods due to climate change.

But whoever takes refuge in me will inherit the land and possess my holy mountain.” 14 And it will be said: “Build up, build up, prepare the road! Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people.”

The election was fraudulent. You weren’t allowed to talk about or else you would be censored and banned. As a result Christians built new platforms to rival the tech giants. Rumble instead of Youtube, Gab instead of Facebook, FrankSpeech instead of the mainstream media. Conservative talk show saw spectacular growth in their ratings while CNN, MSNBC, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Amazon all saw a decrease in their ratings and users. Cancel culture blew up on the faces of all that tried. MLB got burned, Coca Cola got burned, Delta airlines got burned, everyone who banned Mike Lindell got burned.

15 For this is what the high and exalted One says— he who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite. 16 I will not accuse them forever, nor will I always be angry, for then they would faint away because of me— the very people I have created. 17 I was enraged by their sinful greed; I punished them, and hid my face in anger, yet they kept on in their willful ways. 18 I have seen their ways, but I will heal them; I will guide them and restore comfort to Israel’s mourners, 19 creating praise on their lips. Peace, peace, to those far and near,” says the Lord. “And I will heal them.”

This judgement is a house cleaning. The Lord is removing the children of the sorceress who have devised these wicked schemes to defraud people. He is removing the adulterers who have no respect for covenant. He is removing the prostitutes who will sell themselves to do wickedly. They are the brood of rebels against God, they are offspring of liars. Once they have been removed and swept clean we will again hear praise of our God on our lips and we will be healed. This happened because we were asleep at the wheel focused on our willful ways and sinful greed. But once we repented He guided us and restored comfort to those who mourned for righteousness.

20 But the wicked are like the tossing sea, which cannot rest, whose waves cast up mire and mud. 21 “There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”

What is it that the Black Lives Matter says in their protests? No Justice, No Peace. There is no peace for the wicked. What is cancel culture, it is like the tossing sea whose waves are casting up mire and mud.

Jeremiah 10:1-15 -- The time of trial and punishment

1 Hear the word which the Lord speaks to you, O house of Israel.

2 Thus says the Lord: Learn not the way of the [heathen] nations and be not dismayed at the signs of the heavens, though they are dismayed at them,

3 For the customs and ordinances of the peoples are false, empty, and futile; it is but a tree which one cuts out of the forest [to make for himself a god], the work of the hands of the craftsman with the ax or other tool.

4 They deck [the idol] with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers so it will not fall apart or move around.

A clear picture of a Christmas tree decked with silver and gold tinsel. It is also a central idol for a materialistic society. Force people to buy a lot of junk in December in a foolish and stupid attempt to help your economy.

5 [Their idols] are like pillars of turned work [as upright and stationary and immobile as a palm tree], like scarecrows in a cucumber field; they cannot speak; they have to be carried, for they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them, for they cannot do evil, neither is it possible for them to do good [and it is not in them].

Their idols are like scarecrows. We call them “paper tigers”. Before high school football games they will often have a big paper banner that the team runs through. This is what the idols are like, a great big paper wall saying you can’t go here. Just run right through it.

6 None at all is like You, O Lord; You are great, and Your name is great in might.

7 Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? For it is fitting to You and Your due! For among all the wise [men or gods] of the nations and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You.

8 But they are altogether irrational and stupid and foolish. Their instruction is given by idols who are but wood [it is a teaching of falsity, emptiness, futility]!

9 Silver beaten [into plates] is brought from Tarshish and gold from Uphaz, the work of the craftsman and of the hands of the goldsmith; the [idols’] clothing is violet and purple—they are all the work of skillful men.

“Their instruction is given by idols who are but wood” or they are silver plates and made of gold. This is money. It is clothed in violet and purple, the printing plates are all the work of skillful men. But when you set up your economy and your entire civilization based on these idols it is irrational, stupid and foolish. For example, we have a problem this year with the pandemic. How can we get our economy back up and running? What did they do? They simply printed trillions of these little idols. Seriously, you think these little pieces of paper will solve the problem? That is irrational, stupid and foolish.

10 But the Lord is the true God and the God of truth (the God Who is Truth). He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth quakes, and the nations are not able to bear His indignation.

11 Thus shall you say to them: The gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth, shall perish from the earth and from under the heavens.

The heavens and earth were not made from little pieces of paper with pictures of kings, and dead presidents.

12 God made the earth by His power; He established the world by His wisdom and by His understanding and skill stretched out the heavens.

13 When He utters His voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings for the rain and brings forth the wind out from His treasuries and from His storehouses.

God’s word is filled with the wisdom and light to lead us through any crisis.

14 Every man has become like a brute, irrational and stupid, without knowledge [of God]; every goldsmith is brought to shame by his graven idols; for his molten images are frauds and falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

15 They are devoid of worth, usefulness, or truth, a work of delusion and mockery; in their time of trial and punishment they shall [helplessly] perish.

This is the point, in the time of trial they will perish. There is no “wise investment” in the world at the time of trial and punishment. Watch the movie “the big short” these guys were investing in “a time of trial and punishment”. They realized the mortgage market would collapse and so they bought investments to profit off of that collapse. The problem was they soon realized it was like trying to profit from a condemned building that was going to collapse. Their was a very real chance that they would get buried alive. It is like the guy on the street with the sign “the world will end tomorrow” and sure enough there is a huge nuclear war and all that is left of him is a shadow on the wall of a building shouting “I was right”. Money is a work of delusion, what happened to Germany will happen to the whole world. The money will become worthless, that is why you are forced to take the mark of the beast. They essentially put a gun to your head and say you continue to buy into our delusion or we will blow your brains out.

The satanic worldy system is built on idol worship and it is irrational. How do they explain where the universe came from? They say it is evolution, you mix a little of this and that and give it a million years and poof, you have life. OK, where did you get "a little of this and that" from? It is stupid, evolution doesn't explain where everything came from, it simply talks about how marvelous and amazing everything is. For example we can look through human garbage dumps and we can find the first light bulb and this evolved into a Xerox machine and an X ray machine and even a computer. Yes, the discovery of electricity is wonderful and there have been many derivative discoveries and inventions as a result. But where did the light bulb come from? Someone created it. Yes we had glass and metal prior to this but saying that a light bulb evolved from glass and metal doesn't explain where the glass, metal and electricity originally came from. So then why would anyone think that the theory of evolution explains away a creator? The truth is they didn't want to believe in a creator because then they would have to walk according to truth and righteousness knowing one day they would stand before the creator. Since they refused to accept the truth God sent them a delusion.

Jeremiah 10:16-25 Put your faith in Him

16 The Portion of Jacob [the true God on Whom Israel has a claim] is not like these, for He is the Fashioner and Maker of all things, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance—the Lord of hosts is His name.

God is the fashioner and maker of all things and when you ask Him about His creation He points to Israel! We are the works of His hands. The church has not been fashioned by some stupid, foolish idol worshipper, we have been fashioned and made by the creator of the universe. We have been fashioned for a time of trouble and punishment just like Noah’s ark was built to pass through the flood.

17 Gather up your bundle [of baggage] from the ground, O you who dwell under siege.

18 For thus says the Lord: Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time and will bring distress on them, that they may feel it and find it [to be as I have said, and turn to Me].

The day of the Lord is a time of trial and punishment. If you were with Noah building the ark for the last 2,000 years then you have been built to pass through this time. However, if you have put your trust in the world, in money, in your investments, in your bank account, then you are about to be slung out of the land. Gather up all your possessions into a little bag that you will carry.

19 Woe is me because of my hurt! [says Jeremiah, speaking for the nation.] My wound is grievous and incurable. But I said, Surely this sickness and suffering and grief are mine, and I must endure, tolerate, and bear them.

Jeremiah is a prophet for those who are left behind, Isaiah is a prophet for the firstfruits. Isaiah tells us his prophecy is “the spirit of the word”. The spirit of the word is to make us and fashion us into an expression of truth and reality, a vessel of honor. Surely sickness and suffering and grief will be those who put their trust in vain idols.

20 My tent (home) is taken by force and plundered, and all my [tent] cords are broken. My children have gone forth [as captives] from me, and they are no more; there is no one to stretch forth my tent any more and to set up my [tent] curtains.

How did you not see this coming? You refused to receive the word of God because the prophets have been telling you this every day.

21 For the shepherds [of the people] have become like brutes, irrational and stupid, and have not sought the Lord or inquired of Him or required Him [by necessity and by right of His word]. Therefore they have not dealt prudently and have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered.

The shepherds of the people, that would be someone like Fauci. Surely everyone can see that he has become a brute, irrational and stupid. Everyone must get the vaccine so that we can get herd immunity from the disease but if you have the vaccine you still need to wear a mask because you are not immune? Masks don’t work. No, no, masks are essential, I was lying to you then but now I am telling you the truth. We’ll need to wear masks for a month, no a year, no maybe five years, no you can take the masks off now. He didn’t deal prudently, those that followed his advice the closest were the worst hit by Covid. Those that ignored his mandates were the least hit. He declared that in a few weeks Texas would have a new spike in cases and then in few weeks Texas announced their first day without a single death.

22 Hark, the sound of a rumor! [The invading army] comes!—a great commotion out of the north country—to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a dwelling place of jackals.

The earth is filled with rumors of wars, just as the Lord said. The massive cyberattack a few months ago, that was a rumor of war. The cyberattack on the pipeline, that was a rumor of war. China is threatening Taiwan, Russia in threatening Ukraine, Russia is threatening Israel, these are all rumors of war. It is very clear that the audits of the election fraud will determine that the election was illegitimate. What do leaders do when the walls close in? They start a war.

23 O Lord [pleads Jeremiah in the name of the people], I know that [the determination of] the way of a man is not in himself; it is not in man [even in a strong man or in a man at his best] to direct his [own] steps.

You would have to be blind to think that Biden is directing his steps. God is mocking you. Four months into the presidency and you have a crisis on our border, you have crisis in Israel, you have a rumor of a crisis in Taiwan and Ukraine, and you have a crisis in the economy. It is not hard to deal with inflation, simply raise interest rates and it is not hard to deal with unemployment, drop interest rates. But when you have high unemployment and high inflation, that is a crisis that is very hard to deal with.

24 O Lord, correct, instruct, and chastise me, but with judgment and in just measure—not in Your anger, lest You diminish me and bring me to nothing.

25 Pour out Your wrath upon the nations that do not know or recognize You and upon the peoples that do not call upon Your name. For they have devoured Jacob, yes, devoured him and consumed him and made his habitation a desolate waste.


The Christians who bought into the worldly system have been punked by Satan. He would love to have you join him in the lake of fire where he will be brought to nothing. The sooner Christians wake up and repent the better. You have followed Satan into the pit of hell but the Lord will lead you out, you need to repent and put your faith in Him and in His word.

Isaiah 59:1-10 -- They have turned their roads into crooked paths


1 Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear.


Election fraud is not a constitutional crisis. Read Federalist 68, this event was foreseen by the founding fathers. The Lord is well able to save and He is listening for your prayers. Every state has provisions for overseeing and auditing the election, there is a standard procedure for this.

2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.

It is possible that the ballots have become irredeemable, that it will be impossible for a court to select the legitimate ballots from the illegitimate. In that event the state legislators who are elected representatives of the people can be empowered to select the electors for the electoral college. There was a remedy but they sinned, they refused to even consider any form of justice and righteousness. So when God does step in to judge, and He will, the government has a covenant with God since the days of Noah. They are violating that covenant and every time they do that He has stepped in. We call these “revolutions” when God dispossesses evil rulers. This is government of the people, by the people and for the people. Our "leaders" forgot that so they are now being reminded of it.

3 For your hands are stained with blood, your fingers with guilt. Your lips have spoken falsely, and your tongue mutters wicked things.

We now know that significant fraud (enough to change the outcome of the election) has taken place in Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Georgia. If it turns out that there is no way to remedy this the next step is for the state legislature to appoint the electors. Between Pater Navarro's three volume report on the election fraud, the movies Mike Lindell has produced on the election fraud, and the various discoveries from the forensic audits it is clear we have significant fraud in enough states to invalidate the election results.

4 No one calls for justice; no one pleads a case with integrity. They rely on empty arguments, they utter lies; they conceive trouble and give birth to evil. 5 They hatch the eggs of vipers and spin a spider’s web. Whoever eats their eggs will die, and when one is broken, an adder is hatched. 6 Their cobwebs are useless for clothing; they cannot cover themselves with what they make.

The press keeps making empty claims that this is unprecedented, it isn’t happened a few years ago in 2000 and happened with Rutherford B. Hayes. Why isn’t Biden calling for justice? Why isn’t he saying these are serious allegations of voter fraud and it is essential to the preservation of democracy that we resolve this? Instead empty claims of a “coup” with ridiculous comparisons to Hitler and Scarface. Biden says that this will not look good for Trump’s legacy. His silence is not going to look good for his legacy.

Their deeds are evil deeds, and acts of violence are in their hands. 7 Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways. 8 The way of peace they do not know; there is no justice in their paths. They have turned them into crooked roads; no one who walks along them will know peace.

Biden called for unity, healing and peace. At the same time he did this other leaders in the Democratic party were calling for “accountability lists” so that anyone who supported Trump could be punished. They want to put Trump supporters on no fly lists and have anyone refusing to be vaccinated fired from their job. This message was further pushed by leaders in the media. There was a clear threat to have people removed from their jobs, to black ball them, and in any way possible to excommunicate anyone who publicly supported Trump. There were clear legal and constitutional remedies which they turned into crooked paths.

9 So justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows. 10 Like the blind we grope along the wall, feeling our way like people without eyes. At midday we stumble as if it were twilight; among the strong, we are like the dead.

This has taught us how few people actually understand our laws. There are “well educated people” who actually thought that the Media gets to call an election. There are people who we might otherwise consider to be knowledgeable who did not realize that States certify the election in each State or that the Constitution has taken into account a period of 40 days to contest the election in the courts. They thought that it was insurrection to question the outcome of an election, not realizing that Democrats have questioned every Republican victory since 2000 or that Stacy Abrams has refused to acknowledge her defeat or that it was fashionable in 2016 to say #Notmypresident.

Isaiah 59:11-16 Whoever shuns evil becomes a prey

11 We all growl like bears; we moan mournfully like doves. We look for justice, but find none; for deliverance, but it is far away. 12 For our offenses are many in your sight, and our sins testify against us. Our offenses are ever with us, and we acknowledge our iniquities: 13 rebellion and treachery against the Lord, turning our backs on our God, inciting revolt and oppression, uttering lies our hearts have conceived.

This is the heart of the matter. The poor state of the public education has been decried for many years, but the heart of that is our rebellion and treachery against the Lord. People have been outraged at the vile rhetoric in this country, but the heart of the matter is that we turned our backs on the Lord. In just the last few years the lies uttered by the media are too numerous to mention. The NY Times resorted to fabricating a “high level anonymous source in Trump’s administration” out of a low level staffer that no one had ever heard of. The FBI colluded with political leaders to fabricate charges against President Trump based on the “Logan Act”. Flynn was charged because he talked to foreign leaders during the transition as Trump’s administration got ready to take the helm. The hypocrisy of this is overwhelming as Biden is currently talking to foreign leaders and is therefore guilty of exactly the same thing they charged Flynn with. They have incited revolt with their rhetoric even justifying the occupation of Portland. They based the Mueller investigation on lies that were conceived in the mind of Hillary Clinton. Finally we come to this 2nd impeachment with 1 week to go till the end of Trump’s term (the hearing starts on the 13th, the term ends the 20th). The charge is that he incited a riot. Interestingly enough here the Lord says that the guilty have “incited revolt and oppression”. No one is charging Trump with inciting oppression, that would be from the tech giants who are censoring conservative views, Christian views and any call for justice.

14 So justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. 15 Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey.

You cannot even “shun evil”. The cancel culture will pounce if you don’t repeat their claims. Dan Bongino “shunned evil” and his platform “Parler” was taken down by Google, Apple and Amazon.com. These three giants worked together to make him and his site a prey.

The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. 16 He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that there was no one to intervene; so his own arm achieved salvation for him, and his own righteousness sustained him.

This is a very important point that many Christians, myself included, have missed. Daniel says that the antichrist brings down the mighty, but not by his own power. It will be the Lord that brings down the mighty while the antichrist takes credit for what the Lord does. In Jesus ministry He exposed the unrighteousness and corruption of the leaders of His day. He was accused of casting out demons by the Prince of demons. He made it clear at the time that a house divided cannot stand and that if they condemned Him what do they say when their children cast out demons at the end of this age. When the Lord returns at the end of the age He is not simply the only begotten Son of God but “the firstborn among many brethren”. It will be the Lord’s arm that will get the victory, yes, it will be the strongest members of the Body of Christ that achieve salvation.

The other thing is that the Lord saw that there was no one. That means He had to give the state legislators a chance, He had to give the courts and judges a chance, He had to give the Federal government a chance. Only after He sees that there is no one, only then does He intervene with His right arm.

The Lord told us about this, He said they made monuments to the prophets that their fathers killed. The Democrats were the party of the Southern States, the party of slavery,. the party of the KKK. Today they rail against white supremacy and racism. But it is hypocrisy. Kamala Harris thinks that because she is black she is somehow innocent and whitewashed, she is descended from slave holders, not slaves but slave holders. She put many blacks into prison in California, often on questionable evidence. If anyone is stained with the guilt of systemic racism it is her. Of course Joe Biden is even worse. Some think that being Obama's VP means he had the good housekeeping seal of approval. Nothing could be further from the truth. Biden was the most racist senator and putting him on the ticket assuaged the fears of many in the party. Biden was against desegregation of the schools and he was the sponsor of the crime bill. These were the two most racist positions to take in the last 40 years. Not only so but many of his quotes are utterly racist. If anyone else said them they would be cancelled immediately. The same people dressing up as "civil rights activists" were in fact the biggest liars and racists we have seen.

Isaiah 59:17-21 He will come as a pent up flood

17 He put on righteousness as his breastplate,

These protests cannot be done like the BLM protests, those were not covered in righteousness. But wait, what about the riot January 6? Yes, what about it, let’s investigate, let’s find out who incited it, who organized it, who stands to profit from it. We have videos of the police welcoming the protesters into the capital building telling them they have the right to peacefully protest. The only person murdered was Ashli Babbit by mysterious capital security.

and the helmet of salvation on his head;

We need our thoughts covered with the Lord’s salvation. We are not protesting for one candidate or another, Jesus is the only savior and He has already won the victory. No, we are standing for righteousness, truth and justice.

he put on the garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.

We need to care. The enemy does evil because he can count on people not caring. This means we must have the attitude not of a victim but of a victor.

18 According to what they have done, so will he repay wrath to his enemies and retribution to his foes; he will repay the islands their due.

The best way to legitimize this election is to recount the votes by hand, to check the signatures, and to check the voters against roles of people out of the state or who have died. This is labor intensive. No state or party has an army of people to do this work, but if the Lord’s army steps into the gap He really can repay wrath to His enemies and retribution to His foes. Many commentators understand this term “the islands” as referring to the US. Retribution means to repay, as you have done it will be done unto you. With what judgement you judge you shall be judged, with what measure you mete it will be meted out to you.

19 From the west, people will fear the name of the Lord, and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory.

The US is the West and Asia is the land of the rising sun. The entire world is watching, if the people in the West fear the name of the Lord and so overcome in this attempt to seize control of our country the rest of the world will see and revere His glory. What a great conclusion to this age.

For he will come like a pent-up flood that the breath of the Lord drives along.

The Lord’s coming will be like a “pent-up flood”. Many people have seen hints that the army is involved in gathering the information concerning treason. Let me give you a quick outline -- in 2018 there was an executive order that says if foreign countries are involved in trying to influence our election it is treason and gives the president certain powers including the freezing of their assets. The main thrust of Sydney Powell’s investigation has been to demonstrate the foreign involvement of China, Iran and other countries in our election through the electronic voting machines and software. This has been revealed in Mike Lindell's two movies seen by over 150 million people. They have publicly made it clear that she is not working for the president, not only so but she is qualified to work with the military for a military tribunal. There was a firefight in Germany where Delta forces seized a server that was operating in a CIA facility. Some Delta forces were killed in this raid. Nancy Pelosi’s laptop was stolen during the riot at the capital and some feel this was a “white hat” operation. According to this prophecy when the information is released it will be like a pent up flood. Also there is a strange coincidence about the riots. Trump had announced he was speaking at 12 and those behind the scenes knew his speech was 45 minutes long. The people who breached the perimeter of the Capital arrived there at 12:40 and breached at 12:55. The problem is that Trump didn’t start speaking on time, he started at 12:45 and didn’t finish till 1:30. Also, it is a 20 minute walk from the Whitehouse to the Capital. So it is impossible that his speech incited any riot.

The 3 gorges dam is a “pent up flood”. At the same time that the man child is caught up the heavens in the rapture the Great dragon spews a flood out of his mouth like a river. This sounds to me like the 3 gorges dam bursting at the same time. Right now this dam is 174 meters high, a flood over 500 feet high that is pent up. Likewise, when a pregnant woman’s water breaks it is called a “rapture” and if you look at the womb where the baby is it is like “3 gorges”. I think this is a good illustration of what is about to happen.

20 “The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,” declares the Lord. 21 “As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit, who is on you, will not depart from you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord.

This is the covenant and this is how we know who He will rapture. Speak the words of the Lord, put them on your lips. When He returns if you are feeding His sheep in the proper time, then He will say well done, good and faithful servant.

Interesting dream concerning the election fraud, the dominion machines and it calls Joe Biden a liar.

2 Thess 2:1-8 -- The Rebellion comes first

1 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him,

These are two things, the Lord’s coming and our being gathered to Him, what we refer to as the rapture. It appears that the Lord comes secretly immediately before the rapture.

we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.

Everyone should be very clear that a rebellion occurs first and the man of lawlessness is revealed. There has been some wonderful exposition of Isaiah that the US is the transplanted vineyard of the Lord, the vineyard He surrounded with hedges to the East across the sea. Some have even overlaid the pattern of the temple and the items in the temple over the US and the pattern is quite fascinating. So let’s look a little closer at this, the antichrist who is to come, the “man of lawlessness” will be “impudent and brazen”. To a lesser degree we saw this with Hitler, but it will be on full display with the man of lawlessness. Second, he will be a master of intrigue. You would have to be to make a peace treaty between Israel and the Arab nations while also dealing with Iran, China, and Russia. But then Daniel says that he will destroy the mighty but not of his own power. The antichrist is used to destroy Jezebel. That is the rebellion that must take place first, it was Jezebel’s corruption that the Lord is going to judge. The antichrist destroys the mighty, destroys Jezebel and all of her confederates, but not of his own power. It will be the Lord Jesus with his saints as His army. They are the ones who are restraining the evil Jezebel. According to the type she hired 400 prophets of Baal, she controlled the media. Meanwhile a hundred prophets of the Lord were hidden in a cave. So it is the Lord that destroys Jezebel, but it is the antichrist who takes credit for it and as this unfolds he is revealed.

4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.

We just shifted from past tense to future tense. Before the day comes the rebellion takes place and the man of lawlessness is revealed. That takes place before we are gathered to the Lord, i.e. raptured. But in the future, after the rapture, He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshipped. It does not say that he does this prior to the rapture. That is not how he is revealed. He is revealed because he is uniquely impudent and brazen, because he is a master of intrigue, because he destroys the mighty, and finally, because he receives a head wound and is resuscitated, allowing an evil spirit to enter into him. However, after he is inhabited by that evil spirit he will oppose God, even setting himself up in the temple and proclaiming himself to be God. He doesn’t destroy the mighty with his own power, but he does take full credit for it.

5 Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? 6 And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time.

We know what is holding him back. We may not be “master’s of intrigue”, we may not know the deep things of Satan, but all Christians know Jesus Christ and the Spirit of God. This is what is holding him back.

7 For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.

We are the salt and the light. When we speak the word of God it restrains evil and holds it back. We must continue to do so right up until we are taken out of the way during the rapture.

8 And then the lawless one will be revealed,whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.

So if we are paying attention to current events what we are seeing is a rebellion. The allegations of voter fraud is based on a software company that is owned and operated by Diane Feinstein’s husband, and by Nancy Pelosi’s aid, and by Hillary Clinton’s foundation. But it must be much more widespread than that. Many Governors, mayors, and the Democratic party must be involved. The scale and scope of this is truly amazing. Laws were passed all over the country, often while the election was taking place. Judges were used to institute these changes. Polls were used to manipulate the impression of the election while the mainstream media has done everything in their power to create a narrative of fate accomplished. Tech giants have censored all stories that might be contrary to their narrative. Google, Facebook and Twitter are clearly pushing this agenda. What we are witnessing is a rebellion with Hillary Clinton at the epicenter. If Trump can win this election the world will truly marvel and concede he is a master of intrigue. However, those who are fighting this battle are Christians. You can see them in prayer for the country. They aren’t fighting for Trump or Biden to win, but rather that the election be legitimate and not stolen. They are standing for the constitution to be upheld and honored. I suspect that had RBG not died they might have gotten away with this crime, but her death was one thing they had not anticipated. You can be sure the ugly way they treated Kavanaugh will come back to haunt them when these lawsuits arrive at the Supreme court. There are also hundreds of people making signed affidavits. Again, they may not be a supporter of one candidate of the other, rather they are offended at the crime of stealing this election. It is interesting that thousands of dead people have voted. It is the Satanic version of the dead being raised to help support Jezebel and now these same dead that voted for her will also escort her back to hell with them. God is omnipotent, that means He can use anyone to accomplish His will. We will see the mighty hand of God as He executes judgement on Jezebel. However, it will be Trump who will take credit for it and that in turn will set the stage for further judgments on those who would not receive Jesus.

2Thessalonians 2:9-12 God sends upon them a strong delusion

9 The coming [of the lawless one, the antichrist] is through the activity and working of Satan and will be attended by great power and with all sorts of [pretended] miracles and signs and delusive marvels—[all of them] lying wonders—

10 And by unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing (going to perdition) because they did not welcome the Truth but refused to love it that they might be saved.

11 Therefore God sends upon them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false,

12 In order that all may be judged and condemned who did not believe in [who refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely on] the Truth, but [instead] took pleasure in unrighteousness.


There has been an incredible account of daily UFO sightings by the military for years. Video tape, radar, eyewitness accounts, and astounding capabilities. Sixty minutes released the special on this topic a few days ago and that has been followed up by news agencies across the spectrum covering this from Tucker Carlson, Maria Bartiroma, Dan Bongino, to all the major networks. This is a “strong delusion”. Not simply a hard to see photo or a few seconds from someone’s camera, no this is the US military with all of their capabilities and training. There are several possible explanations. First, that this is some technology from another country. That is easily dismissed, we have had these events take place since Roswell. At the time of Roswell to think that China or Russia had this capability would be absurd. Secondly, if some nation did have this capability to shut down ICBM’s and buzz all of our military and naval outposts without us being able to do anything they would have already seized Ukraine or Taiwan. The second possibility is that this is US technology that was about to be exposed so they decided to release it this way. Again, this is absurd, if this were true why do we have people dying in the Middle East? Therefore it is very simple to conclude that no nation has the capability described by the US military that they are seeing in these UFOs. A third possibility is that this is the US military spoofing China and Russia. Perhaps a kind of bluff to scare them away from attacking Taiwan or Ukraine. Again, this is absurd. These accounts date back close to the last seventy years. The idea that the US has been running a long con for the last seventy years is absurd. So then the next possibility is aliens who have come from Orion’s belt (that fits with ancient texts and the pyramids). That means they have the means to travel 1,260 light years. The only way they do that is if they are travelling at the speed of light, even then the journey would take a thousand years. But it also would mean they have been here for the last six thousand years. Since humans have travelled the entire globe both above the water and below it that makes this seem very implausible. Even if creatures had the capability to travel thousands of light years they would still need to live somewhere for the last six thousand years.


So then what I feel is the most reasonable explanation for what the US government is telling us is that this is the fulfillment of Paul’s word here. This is a strong delusion. They refused to believe the truth of the gospel, they thought Jesus rising from the dead and the coming rapture was a fairy tale for kids, so “the Lord gave them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false.” We have had people talking about UFO’s for the last 70 years, we had Hollywood movies on this, we have had history channel documentaries, and now we have the US military.


Imagine trying to explain away the rapture of people all over the globe in the twinkling of an eye as some kind of “close encounter of the third kind”. One day you will have to stand before the Lord and explain how you could reject the truth of the gospel because you thought it was a fictional story and yet you told people this instead. This will obliterate any argument they can make at the judgement seat.

This is stunning

Isaiah 61 Clothed with salvation and righteousness!

1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed and qualified me to preach the Gospel of good tidings to the meek, the poor, and afflicted; He has sent me to bind up and heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the [physical and spiritual] captives and the opening of the prison and of the eyes to those who are bound,

2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord [the year of His favor] [a]and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,

3 To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.

So we will examine these verses. The Lord opened His earthly ministry with this proclamation. The declaration of the Jubilee year. We are currently in a jubilee year according to the Torah calendar and of course this gives us a view not only of an event that happens every 50th year but also the major ages were punctuated with this on Shavuot, the 50th day festival (Giving the law on Mt. Sinai and giving the Spirit on Pentecost).

4 And they shall rebuild the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former desolations and renew the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations.

The meek, the poor, the afflicted will rebuild the ancient ruins? This is the gospel, the Lord saves us and rebuilds us and as a result we now know how to rebuild the ancient ruins. Mike Lindell is a good example of someone who was “ruined” a meth addict with all the associated ills. He is now “rebuilding the ancient ruins”. The US constitution has been neglected and attacked but he is working on rebuilding the integrity in our elections and he is also rebuilding the lives of other addicts with his program for addicts.

5 Aliens shall stand [ready] and feed your flocks, and foreigners shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.

6 But you shall be called the priests of the Lord; people will speak of you as the ministers of our God. You shall eat the wealth of the nations, and the glory [once that of your captors] shall be yours.

Why are people doing this? If a meth addict wants to rebuild his life who better to attach himself to than someone like Mike Lindell who has rebuilt his life? If I am kept in bondage who better to attach myself to than someone who broke those bonds? The gospel is not preached to those who are “holier than thou”, it is preached to people in the same situation with the same struggles as you. Today who are the priests of the rulers? They are people like Fauci, the CDC, the WHO, the school Chancellor, etc. There is a disconnect, they make proclamations for you to keep from ivory towers. There is a wonderful contrast with the Priests that God has appointed. Let’s say I have a herd of cows and I have to bring an offering to God, it is required, just like taxes. So I bring a cow to the temple, the priests will then sacrifice that cow. You might think this is terrible, it is animal cruelty, yet how many people pick up a pack of butchered meat in a seran wrap at the grocery store without a second thought? Yes, that requires a sacrifice, but doing in front of you as an act of worship to God is so much more wonderful than the soulless way we buy meat today. Then once they sacrifice this cow it is a lot of meat! They didn’t have refrigeration, so you needed to cook it all right then. You can probably feed 2,000 people from the sacrifice of a single cow (if you are talking about women and children as well as men). Now you can understand why the aliens are feeding your flocks and working as your ploughmen and vinedressers. They also get to partake of this sacrifice. The priests aren’t living in some gated community, everyone is in the same community and we all partake together and enjoy together. Who wouldn’t want to be part of this family?

7 Instead of your [former] shame you shall have a twofold recompense; instead of dishonor and reproach [your people] shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double [what they had forfeited]; everlasting joy shall be theirs.

This will be a community that has one feast after another. The guy with a hundred cattle might have ten people working for him and maybe another ten close family members, and those who are working for him would have family as well. Maybe there are 100 people closely associated with him when he offers that cow, yet there are 2,000 people that partake. Everytime he offers up a cow there will be 10 more barbecues to go to.

8 For I the Lord love justice; I hate robbery and wrong with violence or a burnt offering. And I will faithfully give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant or league with them.

Wow! What a definition of robbery! If you are the gardener for some rich guy and he doesn’t invite you to his feasts that is robbery! Living in a gated community is robbery! How do so many people get rich in the world? It is with wrong, with violence and with a burnt offering. Someone has to get “burned” for these guys to win. The kingdom that is coming is completely different, we are all those who have been restored. We can understand and appreciate those who still need to be restored, they are part of our family and we realize our job is not simply to raise cattle and have feasts, but even more to see people restored. The contrast with the world is night and day.

9 And their offspring shall be known among the nations and their descendants among the peoples. All who see them [in their prosperity] will recognize and acknowledge that they are the people whom the Lord has blessed.

We won’t simply be recognized as the guy with a 100 cows, no we will be recognized because of the children we have raised, the people who have been restored, healed, released from prison. Imagine you see some guy with a hundred employees who has built up a successful business, just like Mike Lindell. That is notable. Now suppose those 100 employees were all former drug addicts, felons, or people with disabilities. That becomes much more notable.

10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul will exult in my God; for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

You are not simply clothed with salvation. You were once dead in offenses and sins but you have repented and now are clothed with salvation. That is a good testimony. But, having been led out of that prison you went back and led others out of that prison as well. Now you are also clothed with righteousness, you are expressing Jesus Christ. Those people you helped are like jewels adorning your clothes.

11 For as [surely as] the earth brings forth its shoots, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to spring forth, so [surely] the Lord God will cause rightness and justice and praise to spring forth before all the nations [through the self-fulfilling power of His word].

Someone asked me about the rapture, saying “what happens to all those who are left behind, are they just screwed?” No, there are different seasons and different crops based on the season. The rapture will show the way for many others for whom the word has just recently sprouted. The tribulation will be like an intense sunshine that will help them grow and ripen quickly, no other choice.

Romans 15:1-14 Admonish, counsel and instruct one another in love

1 We who are strong [in our convictions and of robust faith] ought to bear with the failings and the frailties and the tender scruples of the weak; [we ought to help carry the doubts and qualms of others] and not to please ourselves.

There are a lot of believers who do not want to pay any attention to the news or what is going on that they feel they have no control over. This is how I would define those who are “strong” in their faith with those who are weak. If you feel your faith is able to move mountains then you are not fearful of hearing about what is happening in the news. In your faith the Lord can do anything. However, if you feel helpless and unable to do anything and you are just a humble believer who wishes to worship the Lord, then that also is fine. That is how an oak tree begins, as a tiny sprout that could be squashed easily enough.

2 Let each one of us make it a practice to please (make happy) his neighbor for his good and for his true welfare, to edify him [to strengthen him and build him up spiritually].

This is the Lord’s command, to love your neighbor as yourself. When I was a brand new Christian I didn’t watch the news, instead I spent my time in reading the word, fellowship with believers and worship. In one of my classes the professor learned this and was stunned. I didn’t know about 3 mile island. So I asked her to tell me what I had missed. There was a possible leak at 3 mile island, the university was in Houston and 3 mile island was in NY. No one had to be evacuated, no one died, and there was no risk to me in Houston. So I asked her, ok, now that I know more how does any of that require that I watch the news every night? I’m glad I know this but does it really matter if I knew it a month ago or today? So I have to remind myself of that when I learn there are others not paying attention to what is going on. For them it could be that reading the word, prayer and fellowship are the priorities. We all stand before the Lord if He tells you not to focus on the news that is fine, if He tells you to pay attention to what is going on that also is fine.

3 For Christ did not please Himself [gave no thought to His own interests]; but, as it is written, The reproaches and abuses of those who reproached and abused you fell on Me.

This is known as head covering. My professor reproached me for not watching the news. I was clear before the Lord that I was doing what He wanted me to do, so my head was covered and the reproach fell on Him.

4 For whatever was thus written in former days was written for our instruction, that by [our steadfast and patient] endurance and the encouragement [drawn] from the Scriptures we might hold fast to and cherish hope.

There are many people who watch the news religiously and yet are clueless about what is going on. Just today I talked to two very educated and well informed people that I work with concerning the recent news on the UFO’s. Neither one had a clue what to think. Now if they read the Bible they would know that this is a critical sign of the Lord’s coming. In 2Thessalonians 2 we are told that the Lord does not return before the apostasy and then Paul says that prior to the rapture God will send them a strong delusion. There has to be an explanation for the rapture and for all the fallen angels that are kicked out of heaven and cast down to Earth at that time. So then watching the news is like watching through a window that is covered in soot. Wouldn’t it make sense to first wash the soot off the window? The Bible is that water that will clean the window, it was written for our instruction.

5 Now may the God Who gives the power of patient endurance (steadfastness) and Who supplies encouragement, grant you to live in such mutual harmony and such full sympathy with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

6 That together you may [unanimously] with united hearts and one voice, praise and glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah).

Right now there is a very sharp schism between those who support Biden and those who supported Trump. This is because the vast majority of Christians do not fully understand God’s purpose which was written for us in His word. If you did understand that you would know that everything is unfolding according to the prophecies and so that the man of lawlessness could be revealed. As Paul said this is essential prior to the rapture. Many things that are taking place are designed to wake us up. Again, something that was prophesied. Also there will be multiple harvests, one in the Spring and one in the fall, not all believers ripen at the same time.

7 Welcome and receive [to your hearts] one another, then, even as Christ has welcomed and received you, for the glory of God.

8 For I tell you that Christ (the Messiah) became a servant and a minister to the circumcised (the Jews) in order to show God’s truthfulness and honesty by confirming (verifying) the promises [given] to our fathers,

9 And [also in order] that the Gentiles (nations) might glorify God for His mercy [not covenanted] to them. As it is written, Therefore I will praise You among the Gentiles and sing praises to Your name.

There was a great discrepancy between these two, a very sharp schism, yet the Lord has laid the cornerstone which unites these two. They also have two very different seasons and different paths and yet we can all be one rejoicing in the Lord and praising Him for what He has done.

10 Again it is said, Rejoice (exult), O Gentiles, along with His [own] people;

11 And again, Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise Him!

This is the key, we should be praising the Lord in all we do. If you have this attitude it will not bother you if someone has a different opinion about the politics of this nation. For example, I was very upset with what I saw as corruption and was very strong demanding that certain crimes be investigated and prosecuted. But regardless of this no one will be cleansed from their sins unless they repent and turn to the Lord. If we prosecute them as we ought to then that is good, if they don’t get prosecuted then when they appear before the Great White throne judgement it will be resolved. What is more urgent right now is that we praise the Lord and exult in His name. Letting all the people know that He is coming and they need to repent for the Kingdom of the heavens, that is the most needful thing.

12 And further Isaiah says, There shall be a [a]Sprout from the Root of Jesse, He Who rises to rule over the Gentiles; in Him shall the Gentiles hope.

Yes, that is my hope, and I am struggling and praying that everything in the world would be brought into subjection under the headship of Jesus Christ. But this begins with me, and that means that I must love my neighbor as myself.

13 May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.

I have been convicted by Noah. Lot is called a righteous man, but Noah was a preacher of righteousness. Lot is rescued by the skin of his teeth and it is a shameful rescue from a burning dumpster fire known as Sodom and Gomorrah. Noah on the other hand had a glorious salvation and deliverance. I want to be Noah not Lot. That requires that you are abounding and overflowing with hope (people around you are getting filled with the water from the word).

14 Personally I am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are rich in goodness, amply filled with all [spiritual] knowledge and competent to admonish and counsel and instruct one another also.

This is the kind of fellowship we should be having. Admonish, counsel and instruct one another. Just yesterday I watched an hour long video from a man teaching about how the Vatican has a UFO department that operates observatories, believes in aliens, and is teaching that we should view them as moral superiors. It was astounding, they are paving the way for the fallen angels to come and set up the kingdom of antichrist. This was particularly relevant given the recent news concerning UFOs. There is too much out there for any of us to know so we need each other, whether it is those who have done the heavy lifting in Bible exposition or those who have focused on tangential issues that are also quite relevant (Shroud of Turin, Catholic Church’s UFO theology, etc).

Romans 15:15-21- Filling in the gap

15 Still on some points I have written to you the more boldly and unreservedly by way of reminder. [I have done so] because of the grace (the unmerited favor) bestowed on me by God

16 In making me a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles. I act in the priestly service of the Gospel (the good news) of God, in order that the sacrificial offering of the Gentiles may be acceptable [to God], consecrated and made holy by the Holy Spirit.

First and foremost is the fellowship of the apostles. Yes all scripture is God breathed and is profitable, but to me the fellowship of the apostles should be first and foremost.

17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have legitimate reason to glory (exult) in my work for God [in what through Christ Jesus I have accomplished concerning the things of God].

Think about what our work is. We see election fraud, we want righteousness, how do we get it? 2,000 people came forward, convicted in their spirit to give affidavits of the fraud. This happened because their spirits had been enlivened by the gospel, they were faithful to listen to the Lord. Others like Mike Lindell were faithful to publish movies on the fraud despite the reproaches that were heaped on him. He did this also because he was faithful to the Lord in His spirit. Many others have volunteered in countless ways whether they are going to school boards, writing letters to congressmen, or going to precinct meetings. So yes, the Lord will bring in His kingdom but it will not be by power or might, rather it will be by his Spirit. Paul therefore has a legitimate reason to glory. He has spoken a word that is working powerfully in mankind for the last 2,000 years, raising up an army to the Lord.

18 For [of course] I will not venture (presume) to speak thus of any work except what Christ has actually done through me [as an instrument in His hands] to win obedience from the Gentiles, by word and deed,

19 [Even as my preaching has been accompanied] with the power of signs and wonders, [and all of it] by the power of the Holy Spirit. [The result is] that starting from Jerusalem and as far round as Illyricum, I have fully preached the Gospel [faithfully executing, accomplishing, carrying out to the full the good news] of Christ (the Messiah) in its entirety.

Each one of us has a role, do not despise the day of small things. When I read about Paul it seems he had marvelous and miraculous experiences. Yet when I think back on my life I realize I also had miraculous experiences. I think it is very clear that there were at least four times in my life that the angels caught me and made sure I would not dash my foot against the stone. Once I was riding my bicycle alongside a highway when the shoulder became gravel and I was thrown off into the highway. Passing right below my face was a car travelling at 65 mph. 0.1 seconds sooner and I would have been hit by the windshield or the grill or the tires. You can think that was lucky, but there were three other experiences that were even “luckier” to the point you have to conclude that whatever angel has been given the assignment to keep me alive is going to get a bonus when all this is done.

20 Thus my ambition has been to preach the Gospel, not where Christ’s name has already been known, lest I build on another man’s foundation;

21 But [instead I would act on the principle] as it is written, They shall see who have never been told of Him, and they shall understand who have never heard [of Him].

With each of us we look for some function or job that we could do that no one else is doing, to fill in the gap. I was never interested in teaching the Bible because there are plenty of saints doing that, but to share a testimony, my testimony, to make the Bible real today for someone, that is something I am interested in doing.
