The Late, Great, Planet Earth.
Between Hevan and Hell. pt 1.
John 3:14-15 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. The most difficult thing in this life is to get the world to believe that all things concerning this life is between Hevan and Hell. No one forces anyone to believe in the Bible. Our mission is to convince others that there must come a time in their lives that they must choose, between eternal life with Jesus or eternal life with Satan. The Brazen serpent that Moses raised up was not a comparison between Jesus and a figure [The figure of the Serpent did not represent a type of Christ] but of a decision that had to be made then and now. A decision between good and evil, between righteousness and unrighteousness and between salvation and damnation a decision between life and death. (Barnes)There is no evidence that this was intended to be a type of the Messiah, but it is used by Jesus as strikingly illustrating his work. Men are sinners. There is no cure by human means for the maladies of the soul; and as the people who were bitten might look on the image of the serpent and be healed, so may sinners look to the Saviour and be cured of the moral maladies of our nature. The madness of man has come full circle from Sodom and Gomorrha to today with devision between nation and nation, peoples and peoples and Governments and Governments. Lets look at an exampel from Gen 19:14. And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, “Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city.” But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law. This is the madness of mankind today, they see the signs, they smell the fear but still, as with the sons in law of Lot, they mock those that try to warn them of the impending destruction of every thing they know of. Existence between Hevan and Hell is a place of indecision, a place that will soon no longer exist. Heb 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. As you can see in the scriptures, when men of God were warned of impending desaster, they, “moved with fear”, not fear of their own lives but of a reverent fear of God, which mankind today has none of. Gen 19:13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it. Gen 19:28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace. Luk 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. 2Pe 2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; Do you actually believe that as this world is today compaired to Sodom and Gomorrah, that God will allow mankind to continue much longer or has the day of the gentiles been fulfilled? There are many today, with increaseing numbers, that declare that the Bible is not true and they refuse to believe in things that they cannot see. Since the transfiguration and assention of Jesus, man has lost sight of the truth of this life and the fear or wonder of the next. What is our life on this earth? Is it designed to be lived only once and then discarded , as many believe, never to be remembered? If so then why would man even consider try to make something of his life, would not man run rampant, enjoying his life as long as it exists? I don’t believe they understand or maby they do understand the eternal nature of the soul, and are just denighing the fact that one day they will have to give an account of their actions. Either way, they are destined to live the life they choose and die without hope. Luke 21:25-26. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. Christ judgments of the nations upon the earth, great and terrible. Christ is not returning to ask men to repent but to give all men what they have chosen in this life. Each and every day man has made a choice, some choose Hevan and others have chosen Hell. What are some of the signs of the times? 1. The Israeli and Palestinian conflict. 2. Russia, China & India sign non agression pact. 3. President Bush said he could consider using force as a last resort to press Iran to give up its nuclear program. 4. A national meeting of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America rejected a proposal Friday that would have allowed gays in committed relationships to serve as clergy. 5. North Korea and Her Nuclear Weapons. 6. Genocide in African Nations. 7. Asian Tsunami Disaster. 8. The Mid East Conflicts worsening. 9. Starvation in Africa. 10. Fears of world wide Pandemic from Bird Flue. 11. Churches barred from ’gay’ discrimination.[ie;Telling them the Truth.] New measure requires religious groups to hire homosexuals. 12. Presbyterian Churches marry same sex couples. 13. ANGLICANS/ EPISCOPALIANS. Church of England bishop supports vicar’s planned sex-change. 14. Southern Baptist minister will address Spirit Quest and ordain 15 gay ministers. "TAMPA—A Southern Baptist minister will address a national conference of gay Pentecostals here this week, the Tampa Tribune reported. Spirit Quest 2000, which will run from Oct. 5-8, ...Fifteen gay ministers are to be ordained during the conference. Southern Baptist minister Samuel Kirkland says he’ll send a message of love and "leave the judging to God," (Wire Reports, Friday, 6 October 2000) Not only is the Bible under attack but Jesus. God has stated that His word shall not pass away and He means it. Mankind is trying to find an easier way to Heavan but instead has found a faster way to Hell. Lets read Mat 24:37-39. “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” Mat 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. Man is being warned of God of things seen as of now. end Part 1. ars

Between Hevan and Hell. pt 2. John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. Act 5:38-39 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God. [Act_7:51, Act_9:5, Act_23:9; Exo_10:3-7; 2Ki_19:22; Job_15:25-27, Job_40:9-14; Isa_45:9; 1Co_10:22] (Barnes) Ye cannot overthrow it - Because: (1) God has almighty power, and can execute his purposes; (2) Because he is unchanging, and will not be diverted from his plans, Job_23:13-14. The plan which God forms “must” be accomplished. All the devices of man are feebleness when opposed to him, and he can dash them in pieces in an instant. The prediction of Gamaliel has been fulfilled. People have opposed Christianity in every way, but in vain. They have reviled it; have persecuted it; have resorted to argument and to ridicule; to fire, and faggot, and sword; they have called in the aid of science; but all has been in vain. The more it has been crushed, the more it has risen, and it still exists with as much life and power as ever. The “preservation” of this religion amidst so much and so varied opposition proves that it is of God. Job 23:13-15 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth. For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. Many are offended by my use of the word of God to discuss all things pertaining to this life, they say, “Why cant you speak for yourself?” But when I speak of Gods word I am speaking for myself, for the word of God is my life, my substance, my very being, without God I am nothing. For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: He is the one that speaks for me when I am unstable in my voice, as was Aaron with Moses. Exo 4:10-12. And Moses said unto the LORD, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man’s mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD? Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say. They are not fighting against Gods Ministers, they are fighting against God. Hung between Heaven and Hell. Act 23:9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees’ part arose, and strove, saying, “We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.” Psa 37:12-15. The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken. More and more man has gone in the way of their own lust, fighting without gain, worshiping without a God, Lusting without reward. Flesh is Flesh and Spirit is Spirit. Changing the church into a den of thieves and liars, non righteousness and filth have taken over the lives of many because they seem to fight against all truth. When something is killing you wouldn’t it be wise to remove yourself from it? The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. The New Church, The Upgraded Church, Spiritual Activism, Liberated Christians, The Church of Tomorrow, who gave them the authority to Change the living word? Who gave them the authority to Change the Foundation by which Jesus established His Church. When did God relinquish His authority over the Church or over to man? Job 40:2 Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it. Who among all that declair that Gods word is wrong, that it is flawed, that it needs to be changed, let Him contend with God alone and let He who wins declair all to the world. Let those of the synagogue of Satan stand alone against the Almighty and fight as he would the Great Lion with bare hands and his mind shall the unrightious drag down their children as well, shall they put a curse upon their unborn as with the Pharesses.[Mat 27:25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.] Rev 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Rev 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth. When you denigh one part of the Bible you have denighed all, for one cannot take away nor add to the word of God. Rom 1:24-32. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. (Barnes)Haters of God - There is no charge which can be brought against people more severe than this. It is the highest possible crime; yet it is a charge which the conduct of people will abundantly justify, and the truth of which all those experience who are brought to see their true character. To an awakened sinner there is often nothing more plain and painful than that he is a hater of God. His heart rises up against Him, and his Law, and his plan of saving people; and he deeply feels that nothing can subdue this but the mighty power of the Holy One. This is a charge which is not unfrequently brought against people in the Bible; [Joh_7:7; Joh_15:18, Joh_15:24-25; Joh_3:19-20.] (Eph 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; Surely, if this be the native character of man, then it is “far gone from original righteousness.”) No more striking proof of depravity could be given; and in no creed or confession of faith is there a more painful and humiliating representation given of human wickedness, than in this declaration of an inspired apostle, that people are by nature haters of God. Can you say to others,”I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” or do you say ,”I am still between Hevan and Hell.”

The Doomsday Factor Revelation 18:3-18:8 The First and Second Jewish Temples were Located on the Temple Mount, which is in danger of collapse. Many christians today have no idea that there is prophecy of the three temples. Many even denigh the fact. But The temple mount is the center of all prophecy and conflict between the Isralies and Muslims. The Anti- Christ will put his image in the third temple and cause it to speak. 2Pe 2:1-3. “But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” Here is prophecy being fulfilled. The Israeli rabbinical council involved with re-establishing the Sanhedrin, is calling upon all groups involved in Temple Mount research to prepare detailed architectural plans for the reconstruction of the Jewish Holy Temple.[The Third Temple.] Muslims believe the Temple Mount is the place where Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, ascended to heaven. On the other hand, for Jews and Christians, the Temple Mount is the place where the Jewish temple once stood and is the "center of spiritual and religious national aspirations of the Jews in Israel," [The Temple of Soloman.] In addition, the Temple Mount was where Jesus taught and overturned the moneychangers’ tables. {Mat 21:12-13. And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, “It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.”} The Sanhedrin is the name given in the mishna to the council of seventy-one Jewish sages who constituted the Supreme Court and legislative body in Judea during the Roman period. The make-up of the council included a president, vice president, and sixty-nine general members who all sat in the form of a semi-circle when in session. Though the majority of the membership of the 71-member "new" Sanhedrin remain anonymous, three out of seven members who have been selected to represent the body are leaders of the Temple Mount movement, an array of radical groups who advocate demolishing the Al-Aqsa Mosque to make way for a third temple in Jerusalem. Further, the "new" Sanhedrin has confirmed its place within the Temple Mount Movement by announcing its intention to take steps toward the rebuilding of the temple. Subscribers to the Temple Mount Movement believe that, by rebuilding of the Temple, they can usher in a Messianic Era of eternal peace.[ref. Dan_7:20-25, Dan_8:9-12; Rev_13:11-13] To understand better, we must turn to the Word of God. Dan 9:26-27. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. And he[anti-christ] shall confirm the covenant with many for one week[7 years]: and in the midst of the week[3.5 years] he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the over-spreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. The Doomsday Factor that we see today is the struggle over the land promised by God to Israel thru, Moses, Aaron & Abraham. “The threat of an attack by Jewish extremists on the Temple Mount is of great concern to Israeli security officials as Israel prepares to withdraw from Gaza, according to former Shin Bet head Avi Dichter. Security officials refer to the possibility as the "doomsday scenario." An attack on the Temple Mount (Dome of The Rock) would be disastrous for Israel and the rest of the Christian world. Many would be killed, not only in Israel but the entire world. World War would break out. Here is Gods promise to Israel. Deu 11:24 Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be. [ Ref; Gen_15:18-21; Exo_23:31; Num_34:3-15; Jos_1:3, Jos_1:4, Jos_14:9; 1Ki_4:21, 1Ki_4:24; 2Ch_9:26] 2Pe 2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; Zec 14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 2Pe 2:12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. Rev 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. Rev 18:3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. Rev 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. The end is coming, weather you believe or not. prophecy is being fulfilled and the doomsday factor has already started. Let me leave you with one last thought from Christ; ” I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?” [Luk_12:51, Luk_12:52; Isa_11:4; Joe_2:30,Joe_2:31; Mal_3:2, Mal_3:3, Mal_4:1; Mat_3:10-12] ars.

Jihad. Revelation 6:10-6:11 Jihad. Jesus spoke as much about Heaven as He did about Hell. What I would like to do is a little comparison of the Truth of the Bible over the Lies of The Jihad, as the Muslim Nations try to dominate the world with their false religion. Islam believes that the world will eventually convert to Islam if all factions that are non-Islamic are removed.[AKA,Killed] To the Muslums the greatest threat to their world domination is Judaism and Christianity. Which both of these will eventually join together under one saviour Jesus Christ.We will consintrait on The militant interpretation of jihad, for it is the one that many are dieing for and of today. The militant interpretation of jihad, is to suggest a world-view in which hostile anti-Islamic forces [Judaism and Christianity.] are currently preventing Islam from realizing its full potential for peaceful global expansion--[Global Dominance]a world-view in which Islam will eventually be adopted by all mankind [Forced Upon] if these hostile forces [Jews & Christians] are confronted socially and militarily. Offensive jihad is the waging of wars of aggression and conquest against non-Muslims in order to bring them and their territories [Conquer] under Islamic rule. This view is of forced servitude as with Hitler and Stallen. Having a view of God that is intrepreted by a handful of men who will control all aspects of religion. The Saducies and Pharisees, lost power because of this same Ideology that the Muslims of Today are using. "Offensive jihad" is, under classical Islamic law, a campaign that can only be declared by the lawful Islamic head of state, namely the Caliph. Breaking their own law for jihad there is no Caliph to ordane jihad. Tradition stipulates that while only the Caliph may declare an offensive jihad on another country, no authority is necessary for initiation of "defensive jihad" -- because, in this view, when Muslims are attacked, it automatically becomes obligatory for all Muslim men of military age, within a certain radius of the attack, to defend against any foreign attack (the size of the radius being determined by the military circumstances during the attack.) What is being waged today is not defensive jihad but murder. They do not attack military targets, as in real war, but they attack, women and children of all faiths. The Qu-ran states that Jesus was a prophet from God, but they will not adhear to His teachings. Jesus Stated, very clearly; ”Mat 12:30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.” "It was mentioned by Daraj Ibn Abi Hatim, that Abu al-Haytham ’Adullah Ibn Wahb narrated from Abu Sa’id al-Khudhri, who heard the Prophet Muhammad (Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) saying, ’The smallest reward for the people of Heaven is an abode where there are eighty thousand servants and seventy two wives, over which stands a dome decorated with pearls, aqua-marine and ruby, as wide as the distance from al-Jabiyyah to San’a. Many of the men who are suicide bombers are brane washed into believeing that sex from 72 wives will be their reward in Heavan. But Jesus Stated again; Luke 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: . If Islam believed that Jesus was a prophet from God, then why do they not believe Him. Isnt this the same as with the Pharisees ? Jesus is mentioned in the Qu-ran 28 times, as being a man of God a Prophet and as being strengthened in the Faith. Then why do they not believe Him? Mat 21:24 - 27; And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things. The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him? But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet. And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things. The Jihad, is an excuse for murder and mayhem. Christianity has survived many wars in the past and many attempts by the spirit of anti-christ to destroy it and Israel but we still stand. The Jihad is just another attempt by the spirit of anti-christ to gain controll of all world afaires.Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: Rev 6:10-11 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. John 16:2-3 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
