Jesus is greater than Gus D'amato

1Corinthians 9:20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; 21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. 22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.


Jesus can transform a drug addict or alcoholic or prostitute or drug dealer into a son of God who expresses the king. Think of what a glory it is to the Lord that this person the world sees as refuse and offscouring could be transformed into a king. Think of how amazing it is when some old clay pot that looks worthless is discovered to be full of treasure within. Consider Mike Tyson, a troubled kid in the foster care system, who becomes a heavyweight champion because a trainer took him in. One fighter called him "a midget". Everyone knows that if it were not for Gus D'Amato this kids life would have been completely different. That is how it is for those born of the Spirit. Jesus is greater than Gus D'amato.

The Darkness, the Rapture & Rock Giants Released Dream 3-2-26@4:01 AM Shared 3-3-26​

This dream confirms two things.

1. The people sitting in darkness saw a great light can refer to people left behind after the rapture and after the three days of darkness. We can therefore refer to the start of gospel message of 3 1/2 years as being a model for the start of the tribulation.

2. Jesus rising from the dead can also be seen as a model for the rapture after three days of darkness. I suspect the 144,000 are those who depart with the Holy Spirit when Jesus says "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me". In other words there will be 144,000 ready to go with the Spirit at the start of the three days of darkness, then during the three days of darkness many more of God's children will have a chance to repent and deal with sins and then be raptured after the three days.

This also explains the confusion. In the New Testament it can seem like the graves are opened at the time of the crucifixcion and/or at the time of the resurrection. I suggest it might be both. Prior to the three days would be those who are part of the 144,000 and after the three days would be those who are part of the Bride. That is, however, still somewhat vague.

The 40 days of fasting and praying would therefore refer to the church age being 40 jubilees.

Jesus being baptized to start this ministry would also refer to His crucifixion.

Alaska and the Draft 1-7-20@9:30 PM Journal Entry“I feel very uneasy about the fast approaching hour of 12:30 AM. Am I missing something God? What is it? What do you need me to do?” “Write, Child, write these words that I speak to you and do not falter, for war has just started to progress and life as you know it is going to change drastically. Keep your eyes focused on Me Child. When these things start breaking forth as I reveal them to you all men will be amazed. Do not let yourself get lifted up in pride or vain glory, for no man shall receive the honor due to Me. It is I, Child, who reveals all to you and not you within yourself.” “You are right God and I, I do not ever want to have my heart filled with pride. I want to be so filled with Your great love that I won’t have room for anything else.” “God?” “Yes, Child.” “Tell me what is still yet to come. Is something about to take place? My friend also said earlier when she called that Iran, Russia, and China were all looking for excuses to attack us. These are the 3 You gave me prior warning about.” “Yes, Child.” “Then she also said that Iraq had voted to remove all the American soldiers out of the country but stopped when President Trump told them he would put sanctions on them. What are sanctions God, for she told me but I cannot recall?” “Sanctions are the taxes raised against the goods of a country whether buying or selling. A sanction itself is a threatened penalty for disobeying a rule or law. They need the money they make off of selling you their goods Child, and you, your nation, needs the petroleum that they supply. Without it your nation will become crippled as the war progresses and Child, I have already, shall We say, clued you into the fact that gas would be hard to come by.” “Will this be due to lack of availability or due to the high cost?” “It will be both Child, for Alaska alone does not hold the ability to support the needs, the demands needed to supply your country with the oil.” “Does Alaska supply us with oil and gas, God?” “Partially, Child, but as war progresses this too shall be more difficult for many of your men shall be called into service for war needs soldiers and America is sadly lacking in her numbers today.” “You are speaking again about a draft aren’t You God?” “Yes, Child, this is what you call it. I have warned you of one friend, a young man who shall be called into service but there will be more starting with the young and as war progresses so shall the age of drafting expand. It’s okay Child, for I’ve got this. Always have, always will.” “I know God, I know and even though I don’t understand, I trust you and I love You. Just as Job said in Job 13:15 Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him, so do I also feel this way.” “I know, Child, I know.

Words from Jesus Christ in the U.S, Russia, Kazakhstan Dream 1/07/22 @ 10:01 AM concerning war

Now according to the pattern of the ten plagues the plague right before the gross darkness that can be felt is the plague of locusts which eat up the remaining plant life. We have had 20 million illegal immigrants enter this country. We have seen what they did in Minnesota stealing $19 billion. We are told that the situation is also very bad in California, Mass. and Maine. Not only so but we see what Mamdani is doing in NYC. Gold and silver have skyrocketed. AI is causing mass layoffs. Now this war in Iran is shutting down the Hormuz Strait. A large smelter of aluminum is also being shut down and Iran is trying to damage the oil production, shipping and refining in the Mid East. Trump shut down the border and as a result the cartels in Mexico have gone ballistic. Take a look at this video of NYC, the mob looks like a swarm of locusts.



"OUT OF CONTROL"... Mobs Empty ENTIRE NYC MALL as Mamdani FIRES 5,000 POLICE
 
An annual physical to test your spiritual health

1Corinthians 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;


According to the "Once Saved Always Saved" doctrine once you are saved you cannot do anything to undo that. However, there are clear examples of Christians who later renounce their faith. For these ones the OSAS crowd says "they were never saved". Paul deals with that claim here.

3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

They all followed the Lord by Faith, they all were baptized into Him, they all ate and drank the spiritual food and drink. So then what does it mean "they were never saved"? That is not a useful criteria to distinguish anyone. Basically they are teaching that once you are saved you are always saved, but if you backslide then you were never saved to begin with. What kind of doctrine is that?

5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

Instead what the New Testament says is that if God is not pleased with you then you might be overthrown in the wilderness. What that means for your eternal salvation he doesn't say, but it is clear that they are strewn about the wilderness as dead carcasses like trash that God has discarded. Certainly not a good thing. This is something the OSAS crowd never addresses. They focus on the free gift of salvation, and so ignore anything to do with reward or a crown. They also ignore the fact that God might not be well pleased with you. Think of the one that the Lord said "depart from me you worker of iniquity, I never knew you". He wasn't well pleased with that guy either.

6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

Paul is crystal clear, these guys were our examples. That is they were examples for Christians. What does it mean to "lust after evil things". I would think people who watch pornography would fall into this group. The group is larger than simply lusting after porn but it is certainly an illustration of what Paul is saying.

7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

What a great illustration of what idolatry is. We all have to work, make a living, support ourselves and feed ourselves. But the description here is of someone going to a football tailgate party. They sit out in the parking lot, eat barbecue, and then go into the stadium to play and cheer for their team. They idolize these guys. Disneyworld would be another example.

8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

The Bible is very clear that some of the Christians were saved from prostitution and fornication. That is who you were in Egypt. But now that you are in the wilderness, following the Lord, eating spiritual meat and drink, and having been separated from Egypt by baptism, you can't continue in that lifestyle. Jesus Christ is a savior, for Him to save you from a life of fornication and transform you into a child of God, a king and priest to God, is a glory to Jesus Christ, our Savior. But if you reject the leading of the Holy Spirit and the Lord and think you will bring filthy Egyptian practices into the camp of the Lord then He will take action to eliminate this threat.

9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

The story says they were murmuring and complaining about the manna. Rather than enjoying the word of God as their food, drink and the stories that feed their soul they want Hollywood movies. Their complaints were a form of tempting God to give them the things that fed their soul in Egypt.

10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

Jesus Christ is Lord, all things happen for good to those that love God and are called according to purpose. If you are murmuring against the Lord, and all things are under His authority. So if you are murmuring against any of the things happening in your life it indicates there is a problem with your seeing Jesus Christ as Lord. When you visit the doctor they take your blood pressure, temperature, etc. These tests determine your health. So then do you watch porn? Do you have season tickets to the NFL? Did you take your kids to Disneyland this year? Are you committing fornication? Do you prefer Hollywood movies to the word of God? Are you complaining about the Iran war? These questions test your spiritual health.

11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
 
Take heed lest you fall

1Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.


This is the problem with OSAS. Do they ever talk about standing? As Christians we are to stand against the wiles of the evil one.

13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

God knows the heart. In every temptation there is a way of escape. If you want to escape and realize the enemy has laid a trap for you then pray, the Lord will make a way of escape for you. These "temptations" are a test of your heart.

14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

Interesting he doesn't say to flee from fornication or pornography or Hollywood. Before you take the Passover feast you are supposed to clean out all the old leaven from your house. When you get saved you need to clean out all the idols from your house. If you were a big sports fan throw away all the sports paraphernalia. If you had pictures on the wall to incite lust, throw them away. Hollywood films and the music industries record albums are all "charmed" in occult ceremonies. Throw them all away. If you are not absolute in cleaning out your house those idolatrous things from Egypt will allow Satan into your home and it will be a snare to you.

15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. 16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

The Lord's table is where we made a covenant with the Lord and that covenant includes His hand of protection over your house. But if you are engaged to a man to get married why do you still have love letters and photographs of previous boyfriends? The Lord knows what is there and Satan also knows. If you want that hedge of protection you need to clean all this stuff out of your house. The process is simple, if the Lord is nagging you about something, if you feel uneasy about something in your house, throw it out, better to be safe than to be in doubt.

17 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.

This isn't simply about you, if you bring something harmful into the camp it will harm the rest of the church as well. God is not going to allow someone who would harm his children into His house. Either you are going to obey the Lord as Lord, and love Him with all your heart, or you aren't.
 
Seek the profit of others that they may be saved

1 Corinthians 10:18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?


The altar is a shadow of the cross of Christ. Some try to teach that everything is different because of the crucifixion of Jesus. Paul is telling us that the things in the Old Testament are an example to Christians and yes, God includes a shadow of Jesus Christ being crucified. Jesus was our peace offering, He was a burnt offering, He was a sin offering, a trespass offering, etc. Israel partook of those sacrifices and yet all but two of them were strewn about in the wilderness like trash.

19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? 20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.


For years Christians have mocked this. But recently the award shows at the Grammies, at the Oscars, and the Super Bowl halftime show are undeniable examples of Satanic worship. It is not hidden anymore, the Olympics is a great example of sacrifice to devils. If I go out to eat with a friend, that is to have "fellowship with them". If you go to that NFL game, for many people, they are having fellowship with devils. Maybe you used to be a rabid fan but now you are a Christian, you no longer have season tickets but a "friend" invites you to a game and you go. It is like a girl engaged to get married decides to spend the afternoon with an old boyfriend. They'll make all kinds of "justifications". You are concerned with your friends salvation, you want to bring him to the Lord. Sure, that is why you are going to a football game with him. No, his motivation is to win you back to your old life of sin.


21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.


Does OSAS teach this? On the contrary many teach that even if you do drink the cup of devils and partake of the table of devils you won't lose your salvation. It is like they are saying "once you are engaged to be married you are always engaged to be married" and nothing you do will change that. That is a very disgusting thing to say about Jesus. There may be some men that pathetic, but not Jesus.

22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?


I was told all relationships between men and women must determine who is stronger. Women do things to test the man. Is he a wimp, is he strong, etc. If the woman thinks her husband is a wimp and she can manipulate him then the marriage will be a disaster. OSAS teaches that the Lord Jesus is a wimp. They are leading you down a path that ends in disaster.

23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.


There is no law that says I can't go to that football game or to that movie or to Disneyland. But what does the Lord say? Are you filled with life and peace? Do you realize your going to this event is God's will and is working out His purpose? In the story "The Pursuit of Happyness" a key event in this man's life is when he went with a bunch of men to a football game. It led to him being able to open a whole bunch of accounts and getting the job as a stockbroker and ultimately becoming financially successful and secure. Maybe the Lord is leading you to one of these places. But if He is then know that the thing you are doing edifies. It builds you up in the Lord and it builds others up in the Lord. If not, you are lying to yourself.

24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.


The way to determine if something edifies is if it helps others. If you say you are doing something because it is good for your career but it isn't good for your spouse or your children or the saints in the church then you are not seeking for those around you to be helped, and so this is not really edifying anyone but you, and that is not what edifying is. When you build up a building it helps the entire building.

25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake: 26 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.


If you buy clothes at Goodwill you might get some T-shirt from a concert. To you it is a T-shirt, you don't know the group and don't care.

27 If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.


The company will often have a Christmas party. You work there and are disposed to go, that is fine. I don't celebrate Christmas, but that doesn't mean I can't go to this party and I can't eat a cookie.

28 But if any man say unto you, this is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof: 29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?


However, if there is a new brother or sister and they see your T-shirt as idolatrous or the party as idolatrous and they tell you "this is idolatrous" then you throw the T=shirt away and you don't go to the party. This is not because you suddenly realize that rock and roll bands are idolatrous and Christmas is idolatrous. You know that already. It is because you now know this brother or sister is watching you for leadership and your going will embolden them to open up to idolatry. For example, I may not have known who the rock and roll group was, but this person might have. If you can wear their T-Shirt maybe he can go back to listening to them and the other groups he used to listen to.

30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? 31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.


This is the big test, is what you are doing, where you are going, what you are eating, what you are wearing, is all of that "to the glory of God"?

32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:


I have seen Christians vehemently defend what they are doing as giving glory to God and yet it gives offense to Jews, or Gentiles or the church of God. I don't celebrate Christmas, but I keep that to myself because I don't want to offend the Gentiles. I don't want to offend the way they were brought up, or their religion, or their religious beliefs. Paul said that Jesus Christ was the "unknown God" that they worship. For example the oldest Chinese word for boat is composed to two words which mean "8 souls". So you ask the Chinese why would a word for boat be equal to saying "8 souls"? Then you can share about Noah's ark and they can see that hidden within their culture is an unknown God, and that is the message you are bringing to them.

33 Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

I have heard someone describe "setting a date" as though you hype up a date and then "nothing happens" being like Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown.

I have a very different perspective. I feel like Thomas Edison, we are studying the word, this part of the word has been avoided for two thousand years and so we have to put all this stuff together. To say "nothing happened" on one of these dates is not true. Purim is about dealing with Haman and his sons, and over this last Purim we saw Khameni and close to 50 top leaders in his regime killed.

We have seen the Revelation 12 Sign, we have seen the writing on the wall sign, we have seen the Psalm 83 war and now we are seeing Jeremiah 49 fulfilled in front of us.

A lot is happening. The problem is that our understanding is so simple we think everything is "the rapture". But there is much more to it than that and I want to experience all of it.

The Bible is for us to experience and that is what we are doing and anyone who can't see that is blind.

The fact that people are trying to say when the rapture will be and then getting upset when it doesn't happen reveals the heart. The goal is to know the Lord. I feel like Zacheus climbing the tree and wanting to see Jesus. I want to see everything that is happening and I don't want to miss any of it.

MENE MENE TEKEL Babylon 6-10-25@11:36 AM

Jeremiah 51:6 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the Lord's vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.

Jeremiah 51:13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.

Jeremiah 51:25 Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the Lord, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.Mountain.


Strong's H2022 Har: Means…Hill, mountain, hill, country, mount. But when you go into the lexicon, which is an older record of definitions of these words, it means the fortress of the destroyer used by Babylon, the land. So, when it says, ‘and roll thee down from the rocks,’ it’s tearing you down from the elevated position. Mountains were regarded as holy and as the abode of deities, even the false ones.

Jeremiah 51:29 And the land shall tremble in sorrow, for every purpose of the Lord shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.

Jeremiah 51:44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.

Daniel 4:17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.


Daniel 5:26-27 Those will be listed later. That is where found the words, many, many, techel. And there's more to it, but this is the only ones the Lord gave.

MENE, MENE Babylon. God hath numbered thy kingdom and finished it. TEKELThou art weighed in the balances and found wanting.

Daniel 5:30 And in the night was Belshazzar the king of Babylon slain.


“Daughter, you are to read these verses in the order I have given you except for Daniel 3:26-29 and Daniel 5:26-27. They are to be referred at the end.” “I will do it, my lovely Jesus Christ. Is there more?” “There is Daughter of Mine.” MENE MENE TEKEL, O Babylon. Your fate is now sealed. You have become as Belshazzar king of Babylon, who once received the same warning, but with more. Your kingdom, your land, O’ evil Babylon, will not be divided and not given to other kingdoms to rule. You shall instead fall like a burning mountain that is cast down from her lofty peaks of leadership. I bring fire of destruction upon you, fire so hot it melts and destroys everything, leaving a poisonous residue that shall cause men to gaze from far and lament your fall, because to go near you unprotected shall be certain death. Such is the way of man's evil devices and weapons he has created through his worship and alliance with the fallen ones. Babylon burns. Just like Belshazzar received his warning, so shall it be with Babylon's fall. What happened once shall happen again, My Word says. Only it shall be the same, hear Me children, it shall be exactly the same, but also different. MENE MENE TEKEL I have numbered your days and now they are over. Your kingdom, your land, Babylon, has finished, it has expired. These things are the same, occurring the same, yet different. Seek Me for My truth and let your eyes be open with understanding. Your time has come, Babylon-America, it's time for you to fall, to burn with raging fires from your world's own technology, weapons, and devices. Who can stand against the anger of the holy, righteous, anger of Justice's hand? I say no one, there are no contenders. I, Jesus Christ, Son of the living God of Heaven, the Creator of all of both Heaven and earth, have judged you, Babylon-America. You are guilty! This is the time of My vengeance upon you. I shall destroy your cities of their strongholds of power, wealth, and your false deities, your false gods. Baal shall fall, Ashtareth shall fall, Sheva shall fall, Molech shall fall, cast down into ruinous heaps, not fit for anything but cow's dung. Flee, fallen ones, to below the ground as you did in the great flood of Noah's days. You shall never rule from Babylon again, kingdom of darkness, because I'm burning her with fire, purging her, and leaving her a desolate scorched land in many places with poisonous water left for most to drink who are not Mine. Just as Belshazzar, Nebuchadnezzar's son, was judged for his evil, wicked ways, so have you been judged, O’ Babylon, harlot of all harlots. You have deceived and led the whole world astray to worship strange gods of falsehoods. You fall, and you fall swift! Just like Belshazzar. It shall be the same, children, the same yet different, I say again. Only your fall with holy fire of judgment begins with ten hidden nuclear devices in suitcases that shall go off, shall detonate one by one. Do you understand, O’ Babylon and O’ world? I set the time and the course for these things. I say it's now. MENE MENE MENE TEKELYour kingdom, your land has been numbered and finished it. Your kingdom, your land has been numbered and finished it. Your kingdom, your land has been numbered and finished it. TEKELThou art weighed in the balances, O’ Babylon, and you are found wanting. You are found wanting, I say, wanting.

Verses: Jeremiah 33:3; Ecclesiastes 1: 9; 3:15; 17. Daniel 3:26-29; 5:26-27. Take this to Jesus Christ in prayer. Try, test, and discern it as we're all called to do.
 
A destroying wind against the US

Jeremiah 51:1 Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up against me, a destroying wind; 2 And will send unto Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.


This word "fanners" could be translated as "strangers". The word "fanners" is a reference to winnowers. When you reap wheat you drive over it with a heavy wheel to separate the seed from the husk. Then the winnowers toss the seeds into the air and the fanners fan away the chaff until all that is left is the seeds. So think of the 20 million strangers and people like Mamdani as "strangers" who are also "fanners" to separate the chaff from the wheat.

3 Against him that bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine: and spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.

Lifteth himself up means to swagger, to be boastful. Think of how proud and boastful the US is about all their weapons of war. Pride goes before a fall and the Lord intends to humble the US. To destroy ye utterly all her host is a reference to the army of the US.

4 Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streets.

The US is the land of the Chaldeans. This war will take place on US soil and the slain will fall in the streets of the US.

5 For Israel hath not been forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of the Lord of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.

This is the claim they are making today, that Israel is full of sin and that they were forsaken by the Lord back in the first century. The word of God makes it clear that is not true.

6 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the Lord's vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.

It is not realistic to think that 350 million Americans can flee out of the US. However, we can flee out of the "midst" of the US. 65% of the population lives within five miles of the coastline. That five mile strip of the US coastline is the "midst". You will need to flee from the coasts into the interior.

7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the Lord's hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.

This word that applied to Babylon thousands of years ago cannot possibly be referring to Iraq today. They have not been a golden cup in the Lord's hand. The word of God is likened to fine gold. The US has distributed the word of God world wide giving the word of God as a cup of wine to the nations. The Gideons international, one ministry that originated in the US has distributed 2.6 billion Bibles worldwide. That is more than any other organization and the ministry that is number two on that list is also based in the US. Not only so but the US has also made the earth drunken on Hollywood movies, music from their music industry and multi national corporations like McDonalds and Coca Cola.
 
The Great Babylon falls in one hour

Jeremiah 51:8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.


In the book of Revelation we discover that the Great Babylon is destroyed in one hour. Babylon at the time of Daniel may have fallen quickly, but these words in the Old Testament are there because they are prophetic for future events, not because they have already been fulfilled.

9 We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.


Babylon is a melting pot of people from all the nations of the earth, again pointing to the US. This demonstrates she is obstinate, regardless of how much you try and reason with her she refused, which is the political situation in the US the last few years.

10 The Lord hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the Lord our God.

Zion is a mountain in Israel. The Lord brought forth our righteousness refers to the church and the work of redemption the Lord has done during the church age. Once Babylon falls it is time to take the gospel to Israel and proclaim the work of the lord to the Jews again.
 
Don't mess with God

Jeremiah 51:11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.


Is it reasonable that the Lord would take vengeance on the USA? They claim to be a Christian nation and yet forbid the use of the Bible in schools. The CIA is called the "Cocaine Importing Agency" in other nations and Epstein Island and Diddy parties reveals the use of honey pots by the CIA, abusing children for their sordid purposes. Hollywood and the music industry are occultic. Professional sports are idolatrous and they force their multinational corporations down everyone's throat. We could put a long list of offences of the US against others. This doesn't mean the US is more evil than other nations, but we have imposed our crimes on every other nation in the world and no other nation in the world has done that. At the very least since the US dollar is the reserve currency every single nation on earth helps support the profligate US.

12 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.

Take a look at Trump. He repeatedly says he has made the US military the best military in the world. He has sealed the border. He is deporting illegal immigrants. He is doing everything in his power to make this nation secure from attack. The Lord is laughing at this. You could compare this to Pilate telling the Jews to make the tomb of Jesus as secure as they could.

13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.

The US dwells on many waters. We have bases on the seven seas. We are located on all seven continents. We have more military bases on other nations land than every other nation combined. For years we were "the richest nation on earth". We are certainly "abundant in treasures".

14 The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers; and they shall lift up a shout against thee.

20 million illegals, we have been filled as a nation with men as with caterpillers. They are devouring the entire GDP of this nation. Minnesota fraud with Somali pirates is estimated to be $19 billion. That is simply the tip of the iceberg.

15 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.

So then, don't mess with God or the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
No excuses, God searches the hearts of man

Jeremiah 51:16 When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.


Many people like to say "no one knows the day or hour" of the Lord's return as though this is an excuse to ignore the convergence of all the signs. According to Revelation 3:3 not knowing the day of the Lord's return is a judgment on those Christians who are not watching and searching the scripture. The Lord told us all the signs that would converge at the end for the first time in human history. No, not knowing the day or the hour is simply one way God exposes where your heart is. There are people who mock and scoff concerning Jesus Christ and the Bible and yet at the same time they study the Bible carefully knowing that these prophecies will be fulfilled and will let them know when the day of the Lord is. There are others who mock and scoff and it is simply an excuse for them being lazy. The reason they are lazy is because they do not love the word of God and so do not love the Lord Jesus who is the incarnated word of God. If you knew God you would know He is the one who searches the hearts.

17 Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

Money is falsehood. The rich are often rich by hook and by crook. When I was growing up to have $1 million dollars made you rich, today that would be seen as a joke. However, if you bought $1 million worth of gold back then, you would have $125 million worth of gold today. The dollars are worth less than 1% of what they were worth back then while gold has not lost its value. But think about this, they value the stock market in dollars rather than gold. Over the last 5 years the Dow is up 50% while gold is up 200%. Compared to the US dollar it is doing OK, but the US dollar is collapsing in worth. If you compared it to gold, a standard that isn't collapsing then it is doing terrible.

18 They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

So then this is part of the judgement. Not only will we be attacked and people slain in the streets, but the US dollar will perish along with the stock market. It is a work of errors because they think that a derivative can "cover" being short of silver. This is why when the collapse comes it will take down everyone with it.

19 The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the Lord of hosts is his name.

People mock Christians, think they are so smart, pursuing wealth. But all of that "wealth" will disappear like smoke and then they will realize what fools they have been. Meanwhile those who have put their trust in Jesus Christ will dwell securely.
