The Righteous Is Not Going Anywhere!

The False Rapture Theory & When It Started

We Are About To Touch On The Topic Of A False Rapture Theory & Where Does It Begins Flowing Over The World.

THEY and THEM are clearly the WICKED (ungodly unbelievers).

Two shall be grinding at the mill; the (WICKED) one SHALL BE TAKEN and the other left.

RAPTURE believers think THEY will be the ONE TAKEN. If you think YOU will be TAKEN, lets see what The Messiah says will happen to you.

Once again the GOOD remain and the BAD are thrown away. THE WICKED TAKEN and destroyed "from among the just," who remain on the earth.

How can there be THE ELECT during this time IF they went in THE RAPTURE?

ELECT is also mentioned in Luke 18:7; Romans 8:33; Colossians 3:12; Titus 1:1
 

Verse 20 - Neither pray I for these alone but for them also which shall believe on me through their word. (That is you and me.)

If The Messiah asked NOT to take us OUT, we're NOT going! The Rapture theory has nothing to do with your Salvation.

So We (The Righteous) Are Not Going Anywhere, But The WICKED Is The Ones That Is Going To Get Removed.

Contrary To Popular Belief, The Theory of The Rapture Began In The Early 1830's. It Was Invented By Margaret MacDonald of Scotland and promoted by Edward Irving.

Margaret Claimed To Have Had Visions of The Second and Third Coming of The Messiah. Irving, A Presbyterian Preacher, Promoted The Idea That There Was To Be A Restoration of Spiritual Gifts Before Christ's Return.

It Was At That Time, The 1830's And 1840's, When He Expected Messiah's Return To Take Place. The Date For Christ's Return Was Set At 1844.

The Year Came And The Messiah Did Not Return.

Nevertheless, Many Continued To Follow The Leadership of Irving.

He Emphasized the Tongues Gift.

This Was Not The Genuine Tongues of the Acts of The Apostles, But The Phony Tongues Of Speaking Gibberish And Claiming It To Be A Gift From God.

The Presbyterian Church Kicked Him Out As His Movement Into High Gear.

Irving Was An Eloquent And Charismatic Speaker, And Therefore Was Able To Influence Large Groups of People.

The Main Group That Continued His Teachings Was The Catholic Apostolic Church, of Which Margaret MacDonald Was A Member.

However, It Eventually Became The Beginnings of Modern Day Pentecostal Religion.

In The 1830's, In Scotland, Many People Were Claiming To Have The Gift of Tongues. This, Too, Was The Phony Tongues, Speaking Gibberish And Claiming It To Be Spiritual.

Basically What We Are Saying Is That This Rapture Theory Is Made Up By Man Not God, So While Many Think They Got Everything Together They Are Actually Disconnected & So Tore Apart From The Truth & If They Are Not Willing To Listen, No One Can Change Their Minds, Well, The Best Thing Is To Let Them Do What They Want, But Love Them From A Distance.

Speaking Out!

Today we're touching on the topic of HIV and how it's spreading world wide many would not prefer this topic or dare to speak out against the silent killer that's sweeping the nation.
While many concern themselves with terrorist attacks many are perishing daily from an eternal terrorist that hold them captive daily. While the media pretends to care yet promote sexual promiscuity agenda through videos movies, commercials ect...
They also promote it in the schools by teaching children to practice safe sex instead of teaching them abstinence until they have gone through courting their significant other in order to be married.
Many Women Are Passing it around due to having multiple partners
Many Men Are Doing The Same It Is Spreading Rapidly
As The People Continue To Feed Their Minds & Spirit With The Sexual Influence Of This World Since Sex Sale The Media Dishes It Out By The Boat Loads Even In The Children Cartoons Especially Disney.
In Which Many People Over Look.

The Government as well don't fight against the wide spread of HIV DUE TO IT BRINGING IN MORE MONEY FROM THE DOCTOR VISITS IN WHICH KEEPS THE DOCTORS PAID DOWN TO THE PHARMACY DUE TO ALL THE MEDS THAT HAS TO BE PURCHASE AS WELL AS IT KEEPS MONEY GOING OUT TO THE STORES DUE TO THE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE CONTRACTED HIV HAVING TO CHANGE THEIR DIET IN ORDER TO REMAIN STABLE ENOUGH TO MAKE IT.
The Churches No Longer Speak out against Premarital sex or homosexuality due to taking the government Hush Money Meaning The 501 c3 Tax exempt status in which teaches them not to speak out against those things also it opens the door for homosexual practices premarital sex well as perversion MANY OF THE PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH THEMSELVES ARE SPREADING IT BY PRACTICING HOMOSEXUALITY OR BEING SEXUAL PROMISCUOUS BY SLEEPING AROUND ALSO BESTIALITY IS ANOTHER THING THAT IS BRINGING THIS DISEASE ABOUT. While many are looking for answer some who know that they are infected with HIV are purposely passing it out while living in a world were sex of every sort is widely pursued as well as promoted those who would like to go about saving them selves for marriage lose the desire as true marriage is becoming extincted due to people also being bisexual and getting married to cover it then infecting their spouses. Another unspoken way that HIV has acted as a terrorist in this world is when many young as well as older men get locked up for a crime they've committed many have fear to speak out against the abuse of the prison guards rapping them mainly the men of color has be a target of rape.

Men Raping OTHER HAVE BEEN RAPID IN THE MILITARY AS WELL WHEN THEY DECIDED TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST IT THEY MADE A DON'T ASK DON'T LAW TO COVER IT UP BASICALLY TRYING TO SAY THAT MANY WERE INTO HOMOSEXUALITY & THAT NOT TRUE. Many who get HIV rather from homosexuality or sexual promiscuity or their spouse find cheating on them become a victim of a deadly disease that is their daily enemy. It is time to stop turning a Blind eye to this and Speak Out MORE COMMERCIAL NEED TO BE MADE MORE PEOPLE NEED TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST THIS SILENT KILLER (TERRORIST). Another problem is when many are into homosexuality rather it be male or female they allow them to get special privileges within certain group in which is why some people refuse to come out & those that do come out become a target among those still of that lifestyle due to knowing secrets that they don't want many to know in the heterosexual world as it is called. Also the roman catholic church endorses it as well as many president in the white house have engaged in theses activities with young men. There documentation to prove that. THE DISEASE IS ANOTHER WAY TO CONTROL THE WORLD POPULATION NEVERTHELESS THEY BANK ON THE PEOPLE GAMBLING WITH THEIR OWN LIVES BY GETTING INVOLVED IN THOSE ACTIVITIES THAT WAS MENTIONED ABOVE. HIV IS ONE OF THE ENEMIES BIGGEST WEAPON AGAINST MANKIND DUE TO PEOPLE HAVING THE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AS WELL AS IN SOME CASES SELF CONTROL THEY ARE NOT AWARE HOW THEY ARE SET UP FOR A GREATER DOWNFALL MEANING CATCHING THIS DISEASE A SILENT BUT DEADLY TERRORIST THAT KILLS MANY FROM WITHIN.

Cards - The Devil's Bible

Playing cards, like reading your horoscope, has become a joke or just a game. However, the Lord does not look at it as a joke or game. There are serious consequences for reading your horoscope as well as using cards or just having them in your home. It has been said that nicknames for a deck of cards is "The Devil's Bible" and "The Devil's Picture Book". At one time the church took a strong stand against the card game. Until recently preachers and churches warned about the dangers of cards.

Some of the most common places you will find a deck of cards (besides our homes) will be with prostitutes, gamblers, thieves, murderers, in taverns, brothels, prisons, insane asylums, gambling dens, etc., but never at a prayer meeting.

The king represents Satan, Prince of Darkness, usurper and foe of our Lord Jesus Christ. The ten card is for the Spirit of lawlessness, in opposition to the moral law in the Word of God. In 1300, clubs were the chief weapons used by murderers, therefore this suit represents the Spirit of Murder and death by violence. The jack represents the lustful libertine, from pimp to adulterer and whoremonger, a moral leper whose chief ambition is to gratify sensual fleshly lusts. The queen represents Mary, Mother of Jesus, but in the card language she is called Mother of Harlots. The joker represents Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Joker means fool and therefore Jesus is held up to ridicule. The joker is said to be the offspring of licentious jack and the queen, Mother of Harlots.

All other cards also have hidden obscene and blasphemous meanings. Nine-tenths of all gambling today is done with these cards. Witches, psychics, and satan worshiper use playing cards for divination and to cast spells and curses. Born-again believers should not want to be in contact with such a tool of satan. In Deuteronomy 7:26 we are told not to have abominable things in our homes. It will bring a curse on you and your household. It is time that Christians clean house and destroy the hidden works of darkness.

I John 2:15-17 "Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. 16) For all that is in the world - the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one's own resources or in the stability of earthly things] - these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself]. 17) And the world passes away and disappears, and with it the forbidden cravings (the passionate desires, the lust) of it; but he who does the will of God and carries out His purposes in his life abides (remains) forever."

Romans 12:1,2 "I appeal to you therefore, brethren, and beg of you in view of [all] the mercies of God, to make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties] as a living sacrifice, holy (devoted, consecrated) and well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable (rational, intelligent) service and spiritual worship. 2) Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you]."

II Corinthians 6:17,18 "So, come out from among [unbelievers], and separate (sever) yourselves from them, says the Lord, and touch not [any] unclean thing; then I will receive you kindly and treat you with favor, [Isaiah 52:11] 18) And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty. [Isaiah 43:6; Hosea 1:10]."

I Timothy 6:12 "Fight the good fight of faith; lay hold of the eternal life to which you were summoned and [for which] you confessed the good confession [of faith] before many witnesses."

Confess, repent and break all curses off of you and your bloodline and cast out the demons.

Have you ever thought of what you are playing with when you play with a deck of cards? History records that the Puritans called a deck of cards "The Devils Picture Book". The first deck of cards (not the Chinese dominos cards) was made for an insane King Charles of France in 1392. They were designed by sorcerers to enable communication between people without talking. Cards all have a secret meaning. The "King" card, for example, represents the enemy of YHVH and all his unrighteousness, the devil. The "tens" stand for the spirit of lawlessness, and is in direct opposition to the ten commandments of the Bible. In those days there were no guns, the club and the knife were the weapons of choice for murderers. The club cards actually stand for murder. The "Jack" represents a lustful libertine who lives on the gains of the prostitutes, more recently known as pimps. It represents the moral leper. The "Queen" cards represent the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus. In the secrets of the cards she is called the mother of harlots.

The "Joker" in card language represents our Rabbi Yeshua. Joker, of course means a fool. Yeshua is held up as a fool by card players. In the secret language of the deck of cards, it declares that Yeshua (the Joker card) is the offspring of a lustful Jack and the Queen (the mother of harlots). There is in fact a card game called "the brothel game" in which the players use the secret, obscene language of the cards and converse with one another by merely dropping cards amidst no verbal conversation. These are some of the true meanings behind a deck of playing cards.

These Are Clean & Unclean Food That We Can Eat & Cannot Eat. 

Watching TV Is Enslaving Americans

We are living in a sin-sick, morally degenerate, and pleasure-mad world. Our society continually demands entertainment, amusements, and pastimes at an ever-increasing level.

What is the goal of this "continual-entertainment" spirit? To keep modern man happily busy.

In a certain sense, entertainment does succeed in its goal. It keeps thousands and millions busy.

The very words themselves reveal this fact. The word amusement comes originally from the French and literally means "to stare at fixedly so as to prevent musing or thinking." The word pastime speaks for itself. It means to kill or use up time as a thing of little value; to pass time away. The root of the word entertainment means to divert. Thus it implies something which takes us away or diverts us from the normal, real world of everyday life.

In other words, entertainment, amusements, pastimes are things which keep us busy – busy avoiding the realities of life and truth as they are set down in God's Holy Word. They keep us busy avoiding thinking about eternity, hell, heaven, sin, God, Christ, salvation, our own selves, and especially our need for a new heart.

But if entertainment succeeds in its first goal of making man busy it fails miserably in its second: happily busy. Never has there been so much restlessness, dissatisfaction, and yes, unhappiness – in spite of the millions who immerse themselves in modern-day entertainment. Despite our freedom from poverty, our multiplication of opportunities in nearly every walk and aspect of life, plus our continual drinking in of entertainment – no age has been as unhappy as modern man.

Entertainment can never give enough – it always leaves an empty feeling behind. The more it is practiced and relied on, the emptier it becomes.

It has turned our society into an object of pity, for we are victims of our own system. Society goes full cycle, from being pleasure-hungry to pleasure-mania to pleasure-boredom.

But do you know what is even worse? Not only the world, but also the church has begun sliding down the slippery slope of entertainment which can only end in sin, and disastrous results.

Satan does not stop with liberal churches only. He comes also among us. We who believe that the truth is still preached among us – who know so well that the Word of God says, "Abstain from all appearance of evil," who read continually, "Thou shalt have no other gods before Me" – are also beginning to fall victim to the idolatrous god of entertainment.

Step-by-step some are beginning to look for new things (in the church and outside of the church) with which we entertain and keep ourselves busy. Step-by-step the old-fashioned, plain gospel message with its emphasis on the necessity of conversion, is being increasingly de-emphasised. Less and less time is being spent praying together as a family, reading religious books together with children, talking together in family circles about spiritual matters.

Are we not all guilty? Do we not all fall short in experiencing the reality of the seriousness of life, death, the judgment day, and eternity? Today we have a carefree, laughing society, but you never read in the Bible that Jesus took life lightly. Rather, especially referring to our day, He said: "Watch, and pray, and again I say unto you watch!"

But by nature we don't watch. By nature our question is, "How far can I go and still not sin?" instead of, "How far can I flee from sin and avoid the very appearance of evil?"

At the very heart and center of our modern entertainment spirit stands TELEVISION. This is an obvious fact. Television sets are in the homes of 97% of Americans today and 91% of all television time is dedicated solely to the purpose of entertainment. Entertainment-addiction and television-addiction cannot be separated from each other.

Our society has become TELE-HOLIC. On a night when wives do not leave home, 95 out of 100 will spend it watching TV and 85% of their husbands will do likewise. Among teenagers, 80% will follow their parents' example, and 75% of children will also spend their evening drinking in the sin shown on TV.

There are people, however, who do not believe that television becomes an object of slavery in the home, and for that reason we have to consider the power of it in the homes where it is allowed. I shall seek to show you from plain facts that a television owner usually becomes addicted to TV with respect to (A) TIME, (B) SIN, and (C) CONTROL.

(A) TIME. The average TV viewer spends 5½ hours per day watching TV. By the time an average American youth becomes sixty-five years old, he will have spent fourteen years of his life watching TV (compared to one year spent in church, Sunday School, and catechism if he comes faithfully to all). In the U.S.A. children three to five years old spend fifty-four hours every week watching TV, which is 64% of their time awake. When the average graduate from high school receives his diploma at seventeen years of age, he will have spent 11,000 hours of his life in school, but 22,000 hours watching TV. Every time an adult sits down to watch TV, he/she averages 3½ hours of watching time before turning the TV off. Children are glued to TV for an average of 2½ hours per sitting. With the exception of sleeping, the average American will spend more time in his life watching TV than anything else – yes even more than working. Do we not have a tele-holic society with respect to our precious, God-given time?

(B) SIN. TV is a flood of sin. It numbs its watchers against all ten commandments.

First commandment: Anything we put above God becomes an idol. Modern man has become addicted to putting TV before God.

Second commandment: If not in reality, in practice TV has become a graven image in the hearts of most of its watchers.

Third commandment: TV causes its hearers to become addicted to hearing the name of the Lord used in vain. Profanity is used so often that it becomes an inoffensive thing. Few TV watchers realize that every time they willingly watch and hear such things, all those sins are reckoned to them on account of their willing participation.

Fourth commandment: Even the Sabbath Day is not holy enough for TV watchers to keep it turned off, or, if a small percentage may still do so for conscience's sake, desire and craving for it usually remains even on the Lord's Day.

Fifth commandment: TV does anything but honor father and mother. It continually degrades fatherhood and motherhood, and even frequently glorifies the disobedience of children. Family life, respect for authority, and obedience to government are repeatedly violated on program after program.

Sixth commandment: Instead of "thou shalt not kill," one study reached the conclusion that by the time a child is fourteen at least 18,000 violent assaults and murders take place before his eyes. Another study confirmed that the average child between five and thirteen years of age soaks in 1,300 murders each year, so that violence, assaults, and murders no longer speak the message of sin or its consequences. Murders, hatred, violent actions and words assume the role of normal behavior. The average child's program contains thirty-eight acts of violence per hour (adult program: twenty). A New York City judge who spent his life in courts judging juvenile delinquents and teenage criminals has plainly said that those who investigated the situation know that TV is a prime cause of crime. Another judge said: "Parents, one hour of TV can teach your children more crime, rebellion, smart-aleck freshness, and sex than you can counteract in months if you work at it."

The trouble with violence on TV is that it does not show the real consequences of violence. The guilt that is left behind in the soul of the murderer, the bereaved family, the orphaned children, the filled hospitals, and the solemn graveyards are not shown. Especially in children's programs violence is often totally unreal. Their heroes are often crushed or blown into pieces and moments later reappear unscathed. TV is artificial violence glorified instead of showing real violence in all of its ugly and terrible long-term consequences. Is it a wonder then that there have been thousands of examples of tragedies nationwide when children have "played TV together"?

Seventh commandment: How can the TV viewer remain pure with respect to the seventh commandment when seven out of eight references to sexual acts on TV take place between those who are not married? How can he remain pure when the TV viewer sees on an average of three times every hour sexual misconduct between unmarried adults? How can he remain moral when countless circumstances, conversations, immodest dress, actions, and behavior all point to the excitement and acceptability of sinning against the seventh commandment in a false and unrealistic way?

Eighth commandment: Can an hour be found that goes by when TV actors do not unashamedly steal before their audience? It is not wonder that thousands of thefts in real life have been patterned after TV plots and heroes.

Ninth commandment: Lying against a neighbor becomes a normal, acceptable, and even expected form of behavior on television shows.

Tenth commandment: Covet is a desirable word for TV viewers. Constantly they are reminded through advertisements of a stream of unending luxuries which they are told they shall never be happy without. There is always something they must have which they don't have. The programs themselves are not an exception. For one man to covet another man's wife (or vice versa) is the main theme of entire shows.

From beginning to end TV glorifies sin. On TV the only thing that is "sin" is morality. TV applauds sin, approves of sin, and forces its watchers to minimise sin through tens of thousands of countless repetitions. Over and over again the traditional family life is despised as old-fashioned: fatherhood is replaced with heroism via pathways of sin; motherhood is rejected as demeaning; obedience from children is laughed at as being too boring to be entertaining.

TV has become a catalogue of sin, and all studies reveal it is getting worse. It has become the devil's classroom. The devil is smart enough to throw in a little religion too, and occasionally even a little morality, to pacify consciences enough not to throw it out. Does not TV make a tele-holic society with respect to sin when it feeds lust, perverts morals, presents impurity as love, pictures murder as thrilling, exalts nakedness and indecency as beauty, and seeks to legitimize all kinds of sin against every command of God?

(C) CONTROL Here the addiction becomes even more serious. Thousands of family fights take place regularly because no agreement can be reached on which show to indulge in. In American homes 35% of mealtimes are spent in front of the TV set. Nightly thousands of parents realize the programs that will come on are demoralizing and harmful for their children but yet are so hungry themselves to drink in the sin which they contain that they often let their children watch it too, having no power to control it.

People who say they can control TV are usually speaking idealistically, not realistically:

(1) Our natural hearts love sin, our ears listen for sin, our eyes look for sin. That is just the problem with TV. It is not the box itself that is the problem, but it is our hearts. TV shows what the heart of man wants to see. We have enough "TVs" already in our hearts without buying one for our home. It is our "TV hearts" that are inclined to TV sets. We do not stand above a TV watcher – just the opposite. We desire to come so low that we confess we would not trust our own heart with such an instrument.

(2) Who is able to keep sin from flashing before them on the screen at any moment, whether it be through the program being watched or through advertisement?

(3) Is a person who has owned a TV set for some time, and consequently become hardened to many sins, really qualified to know what is necessary to "control"?

Man does not control TV. TV controls him. Only one study of many will prove this point. Approximately four years ago in St. Catharines, Ontario, the newspaper headlines read one day: $500 paid for disposing of TV. The article went on to say that a study was done in Detroit in which the goal was to find out to what degree people are controlled by TV. Two hundred fifty families were scientifically selected from various races and classes to be offered $500 if they would live without their TV set for one month. After thirty days they could take it back in, and receive $500 free. Out of 250, only fifty families agreed to do it. How many families "made it" through this trial of thirty days? Eight! The other forty-two forfeited their $500 sometime during the month – one family took their TV back in on the 29th day. The eight who made it through were interviewed extensively. All said it brought their family closer together without TV. Six fathers said they first learned to know their children. One father said: "The day that I disposed of our TV was the first day in twenty-five years that no one was killed in our living room, no sirens screamed, no shots rang out, no artificial merriment told us when to laugh, and no one slashed anyone else." And what was the final result of these eight families of whom seven said their family life was considerably more rewarding without TV? The last line of the article tells us: "All eight families took TV back in."

Tele-holism. Knowing it does more harm than good, and still keeping it – that is slavery.
Dear friend, I urge you to dispose of TV today on the following grounds:

(1) It is against the word of God. In Psalm 119 the Lord commands us to turn our eyes from vanity. The entire Bible speaks against television because of its unending list of evils.

(2) The sinfulness of television damages your own soul. Every secular and/or religious study has revealed TV's over-all effects. Since you know that we are fallen children of Adam and Eve, corrupt, and prone to backsliding, why do you unnecessarily feed your own corrupt nature with still more corruption through this instrument of sin?

(3) Studies on television reveal that TV also hinders the God-given treasure of family life and communion. This alone should be reason enough to dispose of TV immediately.

(4) By keeping television you are stepping on and fighting against your own conscience.

(5) You are wasting precious God-given time for which you will have to give an account one day. Would it not be far better that you take the time spent watching TV to read Scripture or good books, or listen to sermon tapes?

Do yourself a favor: for the Word of God's sake, the church's sake, your own soul's sake, your family's sake, your conscience's sake, dispose of your television today. Do it permanently before you become its lifelong slave.

Finally, may it become the prayer of all of us with David: "I will set no evil thing before my eyes. Turn Thou my eyes from beholding vanity."

Sad :-( Gunmen kill 30 in suspected Islamist attack on Nigerian wedding convoy

At least 30 members of a wedding party are dead after being ambushed on a rural road in Borno State on north-eastern Nigeria, according to multiple media reports. The region is at the heart of an ongoing Islamist insurgency.

A wedding convoy was returning to state capital Maiduguri from the neighboring district along the mountainous Bama-Banki highway, which has become notorious for frequent attacks by Boko Haram, an extremist Islamic group, when attackers opened fire.

Eyewitnesses told local media that the groom, identified by his wedding robes, was among the dead, and bodies with gunshot and knife wounds were scattered across the road.

The massacre follows a pattern of escalating violence in the region in recent months, as the military steps up its efforts to root out the loosely-structured Boko Haram. The anti-Western and anti-Christian group, whose name is translated as 'Western education is sinful' from Hausa, is known for attacking government and civilian targets, including churches and schools.

The winding Bama-Banki passageway, which connects Nigeria with Cameroon, is a particular hotspot for disruptive activities, as Boko Haram often barricade the road, hijack cars, and attack army checkpoints along its route.

Last week Boko Haram fighters also made an assault on the city of Damaturu, destroying four police buildings in a five-hour gun battle, with official reports suggesting that more than 120 people died, including dozens of bystanders.

In turn, the government says it has taken out several Boko Haram strongholds, claiming the deaths of more than 100 insurgents in the past fortnight alone.

Nigeria, which has a population of over 170 million, is composed almost equally of Muslims and Christians, though the former dominate the north, and the latter the southern coastal areas.
