How odd, and frankly speaking—stupid, we humans are at times. How many are able to see, “The Writing on the Wall” of everything the corporations and the government are putting in place? Why is it that so few read the news, see many things taking place and then “believe” what the news agencies are telling us.

Why is it that there are credible people (to an extent), telling us not to believe what we see or read in the columns, that there is a “blindfold” being pulled over our eyes and ears? And as you sit down and begin to read or listen, you begin to wonder, if what they are revealing is the truth or not?

Let’s see, where did the Ebola virus come from and how about this new Chikungunya virus coming from South America and the Caribbean? Or how about all the new info on HIV and the placing it holds in human DNA. Think it’s worse or better?

And of course we cannot forget the earthquake swarms of Oklahoma, California and Nevada. Russia is sending bombers as far as the Gulf of Mexico, jets throughout Europe, all the while creating more and more discomfort in the Crimea area. ISIS is running amok throughout Iraq and Syria, all the while eyeing the U.S. and Europe, even Australia, with the Jihadists coming home to roost.

We have had for twenty something (or even more years) Planned-Parenthood and the abortion clinics. We idly stand by as millions upon millions of babies are sacrificed on the tables of convenience. Our children are being taught about Islam in their schools, but they are not allowed to pray or speak the name Jesus Christ.

And all the while small groups of people are concerned with getting the word out about these atrocities, but how many are listening and then reading their Bibles? How many are working to delve deeper than “face value” of these things? Ahh…yes! That proverbial: “It’s all about ME!” is still alive and hopping!

2 Timothy 3:1-7: “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.”

2 Peter 3:3-4: “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, ‘Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

Matthew 24:4-8: “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.”

1 Thessalonians 5:1-3: “But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

Joel 2:28-32: “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.

And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.”

Almost an entire page of biblical prophecy! If you’re so willing to read the news, maybe it’s time that you sit down with your Bible and read what the Lord God has to say. It might interest you to know that every single prophecy in the Bible up and until today, has come true: One hundred percent! That is from Genesis through Revelation, thus far one hundred percent factually accurate. Read it for yourself.

Throughout the Bible, we see not only prophecy, but that the Lord God chose to tell us what HE was going to do…BEFORE HE did it! Then we get to see where the Lord God did exactly what HE said HE would do. Keep in mind here, the Bible is better than 4500 years old.

So then, we look at everything going on around us and IF we have read our Bibles and prayed for the Lord’s wisdom and discernment, how can anyone be surprised?

God is telling to you to, get up, read the Holy Word of God, look around yourself and see everything that is going on and then ask yourself, “Do all of these situations appear in the Bible?” IF your answer is, yes, then you’re on the right track! Keep following that track and read more. The more you read, the better you will be at understanding what all is going on and why.

I can’t believe or understand, how long the Word of God has been around yet the “Powers that be” don’t read it or consider the prophecies there in. For me, that is absolute insanity! Let’s see here, IF someone came along and told you that you would be involved in a car accident today…would you even THINK to jump in the driver’s seat at any time today? NO.

That would be foolish, right? And yet the Word of God, tells you…why the world is going to hell in a hand-basket. And so now, what are you doing about that? How many of you are reading your Bibles on a daily basis? How many are taking what is written there to heart?

It is very evident, far too many won’t even pick-up their Bibles to read anything. For a moment, let’s take into account all the doomsday preppers. Do you think they are going to great extremes to prepare for the fall of the United States, financially and physically? Now let’s take a moment and ask what the Word of God says about this.

Isaiah 2:17-21: “And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. And the idols he shall utterly abolish. And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth. In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.”

Revelation 6:15-17: “And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?”

Oops! Don’t you just hate it when those moments come along? And these passages of Scripture have been in the Bible the entire time and exactly who has been paying any attention to them? All I can say is, “Better late, than never.”

And if you read the rest of the Word of God, you will find out that HE knew every thought you would ever have, long before you ever thought it! Now that’s crazy in and of itself, but the truth be known, my friends. Now let’s move to a truth that soothes and makes us happy to belong to Jesus Christ!

I am at the point where I can see the direction this world is headed in. In the Psalms, David speaks of those who endeavor to deceive him, to try and befuddle him with their rhetoric, their words of no worth. And David calls upon the Lord for HIS wisdom and discernment, to save him and nourish him through God’s Holy Word.

This is exactly how things are today. Even Noah and Lot had the same problems in their lives and only the Lord was able to save them.

In our daily lives the majority of us try and follow what is right and good and then there are those who have chosen to do their level best against everyone else. Yet the majority of people have forgotten that sitting back and doing nothing, is just as bad as joining in with those that do the worst.

Of course most of them exclaim they have done nothing wrong, by doing nothing. They enjoy saying that it was a simple matter of “degrees” as to whether they are wrong or right in the situation. Yet we must wonder, is this what the Word of God teaches?

Matthew 7:20-23 “Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”

I believe if we take the Word of God at face-value, we see that “degrees” of right or wrong have the exact same result. When we take into consideration that the majority of people enjoy giving excuses for their part in a situation, God does not accept excuses.

You belong to the Lord God Almighty, or you don’t; it’s that black and white. If you find this a bit abrasive, I ask you to re-read the passage of Scripture above over and over until you clearly understand.

If we take the “litmus test” of God, many may find that their lives are corrupt. Many may find they are not saved to Jesus Christ, that they will remain right here after the Rapture. Once they die, I wonder what excuses they will try and give to Jesus Christ at that time. I believe in my heart, it will be as is said in the passage of Scripture above.

There is a “choice” that we must make while we live here on earth, Jesus Christ or Satan and his ilk; sin or redemption through the blood of Jesus Christ on the Cross. Folks, it is one way or the other! It is black and white, straight forward and upfront.

The entire Bible, gives examples of people, that have gone one way or the other and that there is a consequence for each decision. Whether anyone wishes to believe it or not, God knows your heart and HE knows every excuse you will try and use before you use it. Thus, it is a futile endeavor to make any such excuses to God.

It may seem reasonable to you at the moment but God does not listen what you think is reasonable and what is not. God is absolutely righteous and just and HE knows everything (whether you are able to wrap your mind around that or not).

You can be a Mr. or Miss or Mrs. “Goody-two-shoes” and think to yourself that you never do anything wrong or sinful. Do you think “pride” is a sin or not? The point is, if you are not saved to Jesus Christ you are as “lost” as much as Adolph Hitler or Josef Stalin. What excuses will you use then?

The Word of God is explicit on this, it is black and white, straight-up and straight forward. You are either a member of this world, in which case you are definitely lost, or you belong to Jesus Christ. If the latter, your sin has been covered by the blood of Jesus Christ on the Cross at Calvary.

Still as yet, that does not give you carte blanche to carry on committing more and more sins. It should be your earnest desire to walk according to the Word of God. Again, the point is this: God knows everything and you will be held accountable.

Doing something wrong is sinful, a direct rebellion against the Lord God and there are consequences to be paid. Obviously, any sin must be repented of…immediately! We are still humans, we will fail our Lord and Savior. Yet when we do harm our relationship with Jesus Christ our first duty is to repair that damage, to realize our faults, ask forgiveness and repent.

Remember the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, when they disobeyed the Lord and ate of the “Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil?” That’s right, you know when you are wrong, when you have sinned against the Lord, you have the “Knowledge of Good and Evil.”

The problem is, most people will see you do something wrong and chastise you for it. |You say you’re sorry or go to jail,  or whatever, and all is then forgiven. Everyone uses excuses, sometimes it works and sometimes it does NOT. God Almighty knows the difference.

If you want to skirt-the-edges of the Law, that’s fine and good. You may get off…then again, you may not! When God Almighty is the last and true judge, only the absolute truth will suffice! If you belong to Jesus Christ, HE will say, I went to the Cross of Calvary and shed my blood to cover your sin.

And the balance of the universe will be set for you. If by chance, you do notbelong to Jesus Christ, then HE will simply turn HIS back to you and send you to hell and lake of fire. Again, it is one way or the other, there is no middle-ground, no fence-sitting!

The one important thing is this: Either way you go…YOU chose this for yourself!
