Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

Ezekiel 36:16-31 Prophecy for believers who profaned the Lord's name

16 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness of a woman in her separation. 18 And I poured out my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols. 19 And I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them. 20 And when they came to the nations whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when it was said of them, These are the people of Jehovah, and they are gone forth out of his land. 21 But I had pity for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations whither they went. 22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for my holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations whither ye went.

We need to learn from what happened to the the Israelites and how God dealt with them. Bloodguiltiness and Idols, those are the two big sins that will separate us from God. Is the job an idol? Is the paycheck an idol? Right now we are dealing with this vaccine mandate. Many believers don’t want to take it, should you claim a medical exemption? Should you claim a religious exemption? I got an email from the union (a day after getting an email from the principal suggesting that you could apply for a medical exemption) and they said the minute you apply for a medical exemption you can go out on leave, use your hours, and lose your health insurance immediately. If you claim a religious exemption you go on unpaid leave and lose your health insurance. I had already rejected both those options, fortunately. Instead I decided I needed to take a stand and make a statement and do that by retiring. When I retire I can submit a letter saying why. So why is this vaccine such a big issue? It seems that it is paving the way for the Mark of the Beast and every day it seems more and more clear that is the case. It is true that they control much of the data on this vaccine making it difficult to absolutely confirm what we believe to be true. Still, if this is as terrible as the Bible says then it is involved in both idolatry and bloodguiltiness. I have seen enough of this to feel that is true. The rule I am following is to listen to the life and peace in your spirit, if you don’t have the life and peace to do something don’t do it. Right now I have the life and peace to retire, I don’t have it to get the vaccine.

23 And I will hallow my great name, which was profaned among the nations, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the nations shall know that I [am] Jehovah, saith the Lord Jehovah, when I shall be hallowed in you before their eyes.

This is a very encouraging word that I never heard before. It seems everyone talks about how terrible the Tribulation will be and yet miss this point. There are believers who have profaned the Lord’s name in the midst of the world. During the Great tribulation you will be able to glorify the Lord’s name in their midst so that He will be hallowed in you before their eyes. Simply confess your sins, repent, and obey the Lord. Be faithful to Him in the midst of the persecution.

24 And I will take you from among the nations, and gather you out of all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.

Again, let’s consider the history of Israel. Yes, they went through the holocaust, but after that they were brought into their own land.

25 And I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your uncleannesses and from all your idols will I cleanse you. 26 And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and keep mine ordinances, and ye shall do them.

If you have sinned you can wash in the water of the word. This confuses people so let’s explain. Let’s say a person is a fornicator. They confess their sins, they repent and the Lord’s blood washes them white as snow. But the next day they have unclean thoughts, what do you do about those? You wash in the word. The word is clean water. Set your mind upon the word, the hymns, the songs, fellowship with saints, pray, etc.

28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

This is a big deal that many miss. If you are a billionaire it may be that money is your god. We don’t trust in money, we don’t trust in chariots, we don’t trust in armies or guns, we have one God and we trust in Him. Now He is promising that He will be our God. Don’t think that people are coming against you to take away your job, think of this as some puny upstart god is challenging you. Have faith that the God of the universe is your God and He will squash that puny upstart.

29 And I will save you from all your uncleannesses; and I will call for the corn and will multiply it, and lay no famine upon you.

We have already had prophesies that there will be a famine on the whole land for seven years. But now we have a promise that if you will set God as your God, if you will walk in His ways, wash in His blood, get a new heart, and wash your mind in the clean water of the word that there will be no famine! This is going to be a very exciting time for believers, God will be a present help in time of trouble!

30 And I will multiply the fruit of the trees and the increase of the field, so that ye may receive no more the reproach of famine among the nations.

Once again we have seen this happen with Israel. When Turkey ruled the land they taxed the inhabitants for every tree they had. As a result all the trees were cut down and Israel became a horrible waste land. Mark Twain visited the land when it was in this state and described it. But when they returned they appreciated how valuable those trees were. People replanted trees and they especially planted trees they wanted and needed like figs, olives, and other trees. Seventy years later the fruit of the trees has been multiplied and the yield from the fields has also been increased. They have come up with remarkable methods so that even the desert has bloomed again. They planted trees that soak up a lot of water in swampy areas, they planted crops that use little water in arid areas.

31 And ye shall remember your evil ways, and your doings which were not good, and shall loathe yourselves for your iniquities and for your abominations.

It is easy to remember your evil ways because you can see what the rest of the world is doing. I loathe them burning down the Brazilian rainforest so that McDonald’s can sell more hamburgers, I loathe the fact that California consumes more water than they get because of irresponsible agricultural practices. It is easy to see many, many things that we do all over the globe that is loathsome. Burn it all down, raise it to the ground, and then when you rebuild you can do it right the second time around. This what we will doin the millennial kingdom.

What an incredible video, it would be unbelievable if it weren't for the verse in 2Thessalonians that because they refused to hold the knowledge of the truth God sent them a great delusion. This is truly a great delusion.

2Thessalonians 2:11 And for this reason God sends to them a working of error, that they should believe what is false,

Ezekiel 37:1-14 Ezekiel prophesied of the rapture, deal with it!

1 The hand of Jehovah was upon me, and Jehovah carried me out in the Spirit, and set me down in the midst of a valley; and it was full of bones. 2 And he caused me to pass by them round about; and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and behold, they were very dry. 3 And he said unto me, Son of man, Shall these bones live? And I said, Lord Jehovah, thou knowest. 4 And he said unto me, Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them, Ye dry bones, hear the word of Jehovah. 5 Thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live.

I have always looked at the Bible as a book that is living where every word is for me. When the Bible talks about Abraham having two sons I see that as historical fact, but I also see that they represent two covenants, one according to the flesh and one according to the Spirit. When they left Egypt and crossed the Red Sea that was historical fact but also my experience as well in baptism. Therefore I can see that this chapter is a prophecy and there is a historical fulfillment in 1948 for the nation of Israel, but I also believe this word applies to me as a Christian as well. Israel being reformed as a nation in one day is considered the greatest prophecy in the Bible, however, I’m going to say it is the second greatest. I believe this chapter also applies to the rapture.

6 And I will put sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live: and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah. 7 And I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a rustling, and the bones came together, bone to its bone. 8 And I looked, and behold, sinews and flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them over; but there was no breath in them. 9 And he said unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. 10 And I prophesied as he had commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.

This is where we are at today. The sin and corruption is so great it will take a great army to deal with it. When Israel was reformed as a nation it took a few years but by the six day war they were a formidable army and since then they have only grown stronger and stronger. Likewise I believe the end of the age will see the Lord raise an army from the believers, those who are raptured in the first rapture will be the “air force” while those left behind will be the “ground game”. Those saints who refuse the mark and get their heads chopped off will be the “armor piercing shells” that completely rip apart Antichrists army.

11 And he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off! 12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, O my people, and bring you into the land of Israel. 13 And ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah, when I have opened your graves, and have caused you to come up out of your graves, O my people.

The Jews came out of the holocaust liek those who were walking out of the grave. However, the rapture will also include the opening of the graves. When Israel was reformed into a nation it shocked the world, all the Christian theologians were teaching that these words were allegorical, they weren’t supposed to be taken literally. They were put to shame for their lack of faith. It is the same today as many Christian teachers deny the teaching of the rapture and all the signs that are pointing to our imminent departure.

14 And I will put my Spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and ye shall know that I Jehovah have spoken, and have done [it], saith Jehovah.

This of course is the point. Prophesy is given so that we would know that the Lord He is God and there is no other. People were amazed when Israel was reformed and it strengthened their faith. Likewise people will be amazed when the rapture takes place and it will spark a revival, the greatest revival of the entire church age.

Ezekiel 37:15-28 The rapture and the tribulation solve a lot of problems.

15 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 16 And thou, son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel, his companions. And take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the house of Israel, his companions. 17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thy hand. 18 And when the children of my people speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not declare unto us what thou meanest by these? 19 say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and will put them with this, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand. 20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thy hand before their eyes. 21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, whither they are gone, and will gather them from every side, and bring them into their own land: 22 and I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.

Once again I fully appreciate that this prophecy is fulfilled in the restoration of Israel. However, for Christians we also are divided into denominations and all kinds of cliques based on the understanding of God’s word. Catholics are very distinct from Evangelicals. Not only so but there is something known as the apostasy where some believers, like myself, believe that every word of the Bible is the inspired word of God that we are to keep. Others freely say which verses in the Bible you should keep and which you don’t need to, which are important doctrines and which are doctrines you can ignore. These issues will not be resolved with debate. Rather they will be resolved by the rapture. Once there is a rapture it will end all debate on whether or not that is literal. Right now Christians, genuine Christians, know that the world is filled with false prophets and false teachers. The rapture will be God’s seal of approval on true teachers. This is like the resurrection, when Jesus was resurrected from the dead He was designated Lord of all by the Father, that ended all debate on whether or not Jesus was a genuine prophet or whether He was leading the people astray.

23 And they shall not defile themselves any more with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; and I will save them out of all their dwelling-places wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

This is the truth, there are Christians who are defiled with idols and with the detestable thing. The answer is not to compromise, the answer is to confess, repent, and be cleansed. Being left behind will be a great opportunity for many to repent.

24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: and they shall walk in mine ordinances, and keep my statutes, and do them.

The rapture exposes the false shepherds. All the phony shepherds that took care of themselves and led the people astray will be judged. Jesus has always been the Great Shepherd for the last two thousand years, the problem is that some genuine saints were led astray by hirelings and false teachers.

25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and David my servant shall be their prince for ever. 26 And I will make a covenant of peace with them: it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for ever. 27 And my tabernacle shall be over them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 28 And the nations shall know that I Jehovah do hallow Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever.

Let’s not focus on the process. Going through the tribulation is messy, it is scary, and for many it will end quite abruptly with them making a glorious testimony to the executioner. Instead focus on the goal. We will dwell for eternity with God, with the Lord Jesus, and with the saints. The transformation that we have seen take place in Israel is only a foretaste of what we will see over the entire world.

Romans 14:1-5 Diversity of thought

1 Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters.

Christians have all been trained in the articles of the faith, the items that are not disputable. But apart from one God and Father of all, Jesus Christ Lord of all, and the faith that has once for all been delivered to us by the apostles everything else is disputable. Do we vote for Biden or Trump, disputable. Do we build a wall on the border, disputable. Do we join the Paris Accords, disputable. Now what exactly does “disputable” mean? Dispute is to argue about or debate, so disputable means you are able to argue about or debate these. However, the meaning of the greek here is more along the lines of to “judge his doubtful thoughts” or even “to criticize his scruples”. The Bible is very clear, a “real Christian” believes that Jesus is Lord, however it doesn’t say anything about whether or not a “real Christian” would ban fracking.

2 One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.

For two thousand years we have looked at this verse as being about whether or not to be a vegetarian. But the first verse is about any disputable matter, and this second verse is simply an illustration of what he is talking about. For example, there are people today who will only listen to CNN and MSNBC and don’t dare to listen to any other sources of information. If you are going to debate a “disputable” topic some people will seek out a multitude of sources. However, you can find people on the internet who will say anything, doesn’t make it true. So there are others who will only accept the “approved” sources like CNN and the NY Times. So there are some who will only “eat” what the powers that be tell them is safe and there are others who will “eat” anything.

3 The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them.

This is the issue we have right now, it is splitting the country in half. Some people are “eating everything” and claiming there was election fraud, others who do not “eat” anything that Facebook, Twitter and the powers that be say is not true are judging those who are claiming there was election fraud. Do not treat your brother or sister with contempt simply because they don’t listen to Steve Bannon or Dan Bongino. On the other hand do not judge those who do.

4 Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand.

This is the key point. When you are making a decision on these issues are you realizing that you are a servant of the Lord and you will be judged for the actions you take. If you vote for Trump then you can be held accountable for the peace treaty he brokered with Israel and the UAE. Likewise if you voted for Biden you are accountable for the decision to pay for abortions worldwide and to make them legal right up until birth. Trump and Biden made it clear where they stood on these issues before you voted.

5 One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.

This is an issue that has bothered me for my entire christian life. I have heard the case to be made about not celebrating birthdays (every birthday celebration in the New Testament is pretty horrible -- though to be fair the Magi were celebrating Jesus birth if not His birthday). Christmas is not Jesus birthday but rather a pagan celebration to the Sun, etc. So on the one hand I don’t want to treat these days as “more sacred than another”. On the other hand the world has done a good job of guilting you and painting you as a “scrooge” if you don’t. To me some issues are clear cut, like abortion, other issues there are two sides to them and both have merit and they are not clear cut. I have made it clear to my kids and family what aspects of Christmas I completely reject as a lie from the world (I consider the whole story of Santa Clause flying around the entire world and sneaking into houses like a thief to give you presents to be a corruption and mockery of the gospel where at the end of the age Jesus will rapture the first fruits and this will be like a thief breaking into the house of the “world” and the worldly church and stealing the treasures). On the other hand we do get birthday gifts and Christmas gifts so that my kids don’t think that Christians are miserly.

Isaiah 13 The Tail of the Great Dragon and the Judgement on Babylon

1 A prophecy against Babylon that Isaiah son of Amoz saw:

I believe that “Mystery, Babylon” in the book of Revelation refers to the US. At the time John wrote the new world had not yet been discovered, hence it was a mystery. The US sits upon 7 continents with bases in every one, we have a total of 800 bases whereas the next four countries combined have less than 50. The US is abundant in deep water ports whereas Rome is not. We sit on many waters whereas Rome does not. If the US were destroyed the merchants of the entire world would mourn “who will buy our stuff”. That is not even remotely true for Rome or Iraq.

2 Raise a banner on a bare hilltop, shout to them; beckon to them to enter the gates of the nobles.

Interesting prophecy, I believe the judgement that is coming is coming from the sky. There is a planet in our solar system that has a very elliptical orbit whose period of revolution is hundreds of years. When it does come near the Sun you can see it with the naked eye. The Sumerians, Egyptians, Chinese and Europeans have all described it. The best way to observe it is with an observatory that we have placed on bare hilltops. So it was the astronomers who first raised the alarm, not to the whole world but simply to the Nobles.

3 I have commanded those I prepared for battle;

I have summoned my warriors to carry out my wrath—

those who rejoice in my triumph.

4 Listen, a noise on the mountains,

like that of a great multitude!

Listen, an uproar among the kingdoms,

like nations massing together!

The Lord Almighty is mustering

an army for war.

5 They come from faraway lands,

from the ends of the heavens—

the Lord and the weapons of his wrath—

to destroy the whole country.

This planet is massive. It is approximately five times the size of Earth, it has several moons and a long trail of debris following it like a tail. The Earth’s orbit is about to intersect that tail and get bombarded with a meteor shower which will destroy the whole country of Babylon (US).

6 Wail, for the day of the Lord is near;

it will come like destruction from the Almighty.

7 Because of this, all hands will go limp,

every heart will melt with fear.

8 Terror will seize them,

pain and anguish will grip them;

they will writhe like a woman in labor.

They will look aghast at each other,

their faces aflame.

Think of all these apocalyptic movies depicting asteroids hitting the earth. They know it is coming, they know it will happen in a single night, hence the whole “Purge” movie series. These movies depict the response of the rich elites. They are building their homes like fortresses where they can lock up and be safe during this particular night. Meanwhile outside, above ground, there will be massive destruction and death. In their bunkers they will eat popcorn and watch movies while the rest of the world burns.

9 See, the day of the Lord is coming

—a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger—

to make the land desolate

and destroy the sinners within it.

10 The stars of heaven and their constellations

will not show their light.

The rising sun will be darkened

and the moon will not give its light.

11 I will punish the world for its evil,

the wicked for their sins.

I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty

and will humble the pride of the ruthless.

This event will be a humbling experience. I am a geologist and in the 1980s one scientist hypothesized that the dinosaurs were wiped out by an asteroid. The response was swift, the arrogant and haughty held him in derision. The prevailing theory at the time was that only nutty non scientific Christians believed in catastrophic events like the flood. However, the evidence continued to come in to support the asteroid and today it is held as indisputable fact that an asteroid did hit the earth causing a catastrophic event which wiped out the dinosaurs. Since then we have also gotten indisputable evidence of catastrophic floods at the time of Noah and which support that account as well. Little by little the haughty and arrogant have been proved wrong and God’s word has been untarnished like fine gold. But despite all this they still hold the prophecies of the Day of the Lord in derision. That will change when this meteor shower will hit the earth. Even the legacy of the most ruthless among them, Stalin or Hitler, will be humbled by the devastation that this will leave.

12 I will make people scarcer than pure gold,

more rare than the gold of Ophir.

The Lord said that He would come as a thief in the night. Right now there are people sounding the alarm, telling the world what the Bible says. These people are treated with derision as nuts. The day of this disaster the Lord will snatch His people away in the rapture. Afterwards people will realize they were right and they need to seek counsel from them about the Day of the Lord and yet, they will be gone. They will be more rare than the gold of Ophir. Yesterday you mocked, today you realize you need the light of the word and yet you can’t find them.

13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble;

and the earth will shake from its place

at the wrath of the Lord Almighty,

in the day of his burning anger.

14 Like a hunted gazelle,

like sheep without a shepherd,

they will all return to their own people,

they will flee to their native land.

I remember sharing the gospel and being told by people that they didn’t need that crutch, that church is fine for weak people who need a crutch, but they were strong, independent, and too wise to believe in the myths. Well, once this happens the world turns to Mad Max and then you realize you are nothing, if only you were part of a large congregation with people of all kinds of skills, people who love one another as the Lord loved them. If you were part of a group like that then you might have a chance to survive.

15 Whoever is captured will be thrust through;

all who are caught will fall by the sword.

16 Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes;

their houses will be looted and their wives violated.

17 See, I will stir up against them the Medes,

who do not care for silver

and have no delight in gold.

18 Their bows will strike down the young men;

they will have no mercy on infants,

nor will they look with compassion on children.

19 Babylon, the jewel of kingdoms,

the pride and glory of the Babylonians,

will be overthrown by God

like Sodom and Gomorrah.

One person who has been sharing this vision for about 18 months at this point is Dana Coverstone. I have heard many reject his dreams because “they have been proven false”. Once again, arrogant and haughty people who will be humbled. What happens to them when in a single hour they are all proven to be true?

20 She will never be inhabited

or lived in through all generations;

there no nomads will pitch their tents,

there no shepherds will rest their flocks.

21 But desert creatures will lie there,

jackals will fill her houses;

there the owls will dwell,

and there the wild goats will leap about.

22 Hyenas will inhabit her strongholds,

jackals her luxurious palaces.

Her time is at hand,

and her days will not be prolonged.

Romans 14:6-23 A more excellent way to debate issues

6 Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.

This is the key thing. Are you giving thanks to God when you celebrate these days? You can have the biggest and best celebration without thanking God and you can also abstain from these parties while giving thanks to God. It is the same with the Paris Accords, I give thanks to God that He is Lord and that all things are under His control. I understand that there are two sides to the issue, but the most important side is that Jesus is Lord.

7 For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. 8 If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. 10 You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.

Some teach to not talk about politics, that is their solution. But this is a more excellent way. Paul doesn’t say these issues are not disputable, on the contrary they are. All he says is that do not treat your brother or sister who may dispute with you with contempt, do not judge them. In this verse the word judge means to condemn. The word contempt means to deride. To judge, to condemn would be equivalent to censoring them, banning them, making it illegal to dispute the issue. The word contempt indicates that those who are strong in the faith are “puffed up with pride”. This does not indicate a concern for the edification of the weaker brother or sister.

11 It is written: “‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.’”

12 So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.

13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.

So what do people do when they are disputing back and forth and there seems to be no resolution? They set a trap, or a snare. For example in the gospels when they came to Jesus and asked if it was right to pay tribute to Caesar or not, that was a trap. If you say yes you offend all those who are against the tyranny of the Roman empire, if you say no you give the Roman’s an excuse to arrest you for treason. But notice, Jesus didn’t duck this question, didn’t say that “politics is out of bounds”.

14 I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for that person it is unclean. 15 If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died. 16 Therefore do not let what you know is good be spoken of as evil. 17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, 18 because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval.

The kingdom of God is not about getting others to listen to Rush Limbaugh or anyone else. When I was first preaching the gospel I was associated with Witness Lee, a coworker of Watchman Nee. He was controversial, some liked him, others were distressed because of him. So, I didn’t reference him at all. The only book we used was the Bible. I didn’t care what people thought about him, it was irrelevant, the kingdom of God is about righteousness, joy and peace in the Holy Spirit. The Bible is fully sufficient to preach that message.

19 Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. 20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.

The words of Satan, and Judas and Balaam are recorded in the Bible. How can that be? Because “all food is clean”. But what about Satan’s temptations to Eve and to Jesus? How else are we to learn about His devices? So without a doubt you can pick up the words of the Bible to cause someone to stumble, this happens in “cults” all the time. Using the Bible in that way is wrong. But every word in the Bible is clean and that includes some very nasty words that are recorded from the false prophets.

21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother or sister to fall.

Anyone who spends time in the word has learned to avoid certain portions that tend to cause others to fall. There are many Christians who avoid Revelation altogether. I personally dislike the way in which it is written. It is clearly written in code to hide what is being said. However, if you are living in the midst of intense persecution you need to learn to speak that way. So if you understand that John is speaking in this way to edify you, then you can receive it.

22 So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God.

Oops, my bad, just forget what I just said.

Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.

Nice, that is some slick debate tactics. You may think you are so smart, so slick, winning the argument but in winning that argument do you condemn yourself when you appear before the Lord’s judgement seat? If winning the argument requires you to condemn others or treat them disrespectfully or lay a trap for them, sorry, you just condemned yourself.

23 But whoever has doubts is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin.

If your conscience is telling you to stop when you are reading or watching something on the internet you need to heed that warning.

Hard to hide this from the whole Earth

We are getting close to the meteor shower

Schumann Resonance is the vibration that takes place when plasma hits the atmosphere and causes it to vibrate. Because of the size of the Earth and atmosphere we have a resonant frequency called the Schumann Resonance. It is a great indicator of the fact that something is causing it to go off the charts. Typically you would think this would be caused by a CME but it is happening when there is no CME and also it often comes from a direction other than the Sun.

Abstract
It is believed that an asteroid/comet impact 65 million years ago ended the dinosaur era. The researchers named the corresponding impact crater Chicxulub, the Mayan word roughly translated as “the dragon's tail.” We estimate the expected magnitudes of the Schumann resonance fields immediately after the Chicxulub impact and show that they exceed their present-day values by about 5×104 times. Long-term distortion of the Schumann resonance parameters is also expected due to the environmental impact of the Chicxulub event. If Schumann resonances play a regulatory biological role, as some studies indicate, it is possible that the excitation and distortion of Schumann resonances after the asteroid/comet impact was a possible stress factor, which, among other stress factors associated with the impact, contributed to the demise of dinosaurs.

One wonders if the dinosaurs were wiped out by an asteroid associated with this Dragon that we are observing and that the Bible prophesied about. Is that what the astronomers who named this were thinking? Or is that how Chicxulub Puerto got its name? How did the Mayans know that is where an asteroid hit 65 million years ago?

Increased volcanic activity and earthquakes can be related to this Dragon event.
