“You live in a world of deception. In their deception they refuse to know Me. This is the LORD’s declaration.” Jeremiah 9:6
Jeremiah chapter 9 gives a very good description of what is about to come upon this earth and its inhabitants. Imminent Ruin and Exile. I came upon this chapter because I was contemplating how deceived the world is and the trouble that mankind is in. I actually fear for mankind because of it, because I can see the deception as well as how mankind has walked into the snare of deception that was laid by Dawn Lucifer himself.
There are many layers to the deception and they’ve increased as time has gone by over the past 6,000 years in which the Spiritual War has raged. Layer upon layer upon layer of lies that have increased and combined and fed off one another until nearly everyone you meet is deceived in some shape, form or fashion. It’s become a web of lies and mankind is the fly caught there by the spider’s web, tangled in deceit.
The deceptions are many and much more than I could possibly list here but they include the belief of the Trinity, water baptism being a requirement for salvation, speaking in tongues, faith healers, to Satan not really existing, the existence of aliens from other planets visiting the earth to the non-existence of life after death and even of God Herself.
As of November 9, 2008, a website called The God Poll (www.thegodpoll.com) reported that 36% of people believe God exists and 43% believe She does not and 18% say maybe She exists.
Another question posed was, “Is there life after death?” and the results of this poll were that 37% said Yes, 44% said No and 19% said Maybe.
Did you look closely at those numbers? 43% do not believe God exists. 44% do not believe in life after death.
Because mankind is so deceived it should come as no surprise that more people in this day and age would believe that there is no God, or Life after death than believe there is a God and life after death. In fact, the prophesy spoken of at Jeremiah 9:6 at the beginning of this article has come to pass and it is yet another sign of End Times. Do they see? For most of mankind, no, because the thick layers of deception has blinded them.
“The coming [of the lawless one] is based on Satan's working, with all kinds of false miracles, signs, and wonders, 10 and with every unrighteous deception among those who are perishing. [They perish] because they did not accept the love of the truth in order to be saved.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10
Deceptions affect people in many different ways, because they feed upon human frailties and what is already in our hearts.
In just the last week, a 16 year old boy killed himself after reading 'The God Delusion' by Richard Dawkins because per his family, he had lost faith in everything.
Three different organizations purchased billboard and bus-side advertising on the non-existence of God that said things like, "Don't believe in God? You're not alone." and “There’s probably no God. Stop worrying and enjoy life.”
In San Francisco's Castro District – homosexual activists rushed out of bars to the streets where they threatened to kill a group of Christians who were worshiping and singing songs.
In Michigan, liberals staged a coordinated, disgusting and repulsive attack on worshipers and the broader concept of the church itself at a Lansing church during services.
And, in the Jewish newspaper The Forward, a weekly news magazine in separate Yiddish and English editions, published anti-Christian cartoons have been published.
With the world in the state that it is, things are bound to get worse. We must see the signs for what they are and recognize how they correlate directly to what the scriptures prophesied. It is an opportunity give to us by Father, to break through the deceptions and prepare our hearts so that we may be saved.
Jeremiah 5:21 says in part, “They have eyes, but they don’t see. They have ears, but they don’t hear.” and what was true then is true now.
Because they have been deceived, more people would rather believe in the prophesies written by Nostradamus and a Mayan calendar pointing to the year 2012 as the end of the earth, than they would our heavenly Father’s holy word in the scriptures. They would rather believe that neither God nor Satan exists and the only demons that exist are the demons that reside within us. They would rather believe that aliens from other planets are appearing in space ships in the skies over earth and creating crop circles in the fields than believe they are Father’s holy forces giving warnings and signs of the coming wrath. They would rather believe in the man-made power of science than the true and eternal power of our God and Creator.
"For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will accumulate teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear something new. They will turn away from hearing the truth and will turn aside to myths." 2 Timothy 4:3-4
I end this article in the same way as I began it – I fear for mankind, for they have been deceived. May the eyes and ears of those who have been victimized by the lawless one be opened. May they see and may they hear…the truth so they may be saved from the clutches of Dawn Lucifer. Amen.
Job 10:12 You gave me life and faithful love, and Your care has guarded my life.
We were all created by Yahweh and all that exists within creation, including our very selves, truthfully and righteously belongs to Father Yahweh. And when you stop, and look around, take in an fully realize all that Father has given us from the sky to the trees to the sound of the ocean, the clothes on your back, the food that you eat, our children and family members, the guidance and nourishment for our spirits and everything in between, we also come to realize that there could not be any possible way that we could return the love in kind.
But...there are four things that we are capable of giving back to Her, as tokens of our thanks, respect and appreciation, and they are Obedience, Faith, Loyalty and Love.
Deuteronomy 4:1 [ Call to Obedience ] "Now, Israel, listen to the statutes and ordinances I am teaching you to follow, so that you may live, enter, and take possession of the land the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you.
Joshua 23:8 Instead, remain faithful to the LORD your God, as you have done to this day.
Proverbs 3:3 Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you. Tie them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.
John 13:34 “I give you a new commandment: love one another. Just as I have loved you, you must also love one another.
The word LOVE is actually mentioned 695 times in the scriptures (per Biblegateway and the Holman Christian Standard version of the Bible). That is an enormous amount and also an indication of its importance.
The world as we know it is a dying world, because it’s been out of balance for a very long time. While there are people who do good things, we have become disconnected from those things which are most important and it’s evident in many ways. Mankind has grown more and more disobedient, our relationships lack loyalty, and our faith has waned. We have forgotten how important it is to give thanks every day for all we are given and it’s now limited to once a year at Thanksgiving – if that. But aside from thanks, where has all the love gone?
When you think of it, these things, obedience, faith, loyalty and love, are the same things any of us would expect of a husband or wife, child, family member or friend. As we were created in Her image, they are things that are important to all of us. We all have free will and we all have the choice of whether or not we want to include these characteristics in our day-to-day relationships. You cannot force someone to remain obedient to you, or maintain faith in you and loyalty to you, or love you. And when it is given freely it means just that much more – that is the point in which it is genuine and gains its importance. To be obedient, faithful and loyal first requires love.
Father Yahweh is love personified. Her love for Her creation is greater than any of us could possibly imagine. And, there is very little that She asks of us in return. Long ago She recognized that mankind was frail to being obedient to Her. But nonetheless, She decided to salvage Her human creation, even with regret, and teach all of us Her way. Father is love, and love is what She has for those that cling faithfully to Her.
It is never too much to ask in that we are obedient to Her, that we have faith in Her, that we remain loyal to Her and love Her and each other, with the same love She has shown us.
Not long ago, I was part of a conversation that was taking place between two friends in regards to End Times. One friend attended a Bible College and the other did not. The one who had not, had for various reasons never truly received understanding of the scriptures and their importance to our daily lives as the living Word of God and she asked “Why is it so important to be ready? Doesn’t everyone go to heaven?”
When you are expecting company for a special occasion, do you not do all that you can to prepare yourself and your surroundings to receive that company? It is now November and the holiday season is approaching and with it will bring family gatherings to celebrate these holidays. The host or hostess will clean their home, decorate, dress, prepare food and drinks to serve to their guests and then wait in anticipation for them to arrive. Nobody who is expecting guests waits until the last moment to make preparations or makes no preparations at all.
Matthew 24:44 This is why you must be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
Aside from the Scriptures, which is the Word of God to Her people and instruction manual on living our lives, Father Yahweh has also provided us all with signs by which to recognize that the time is coming in which the Son of Man will return. And with anticipation, we wait for him to arrive. These signs, coupled with the Scriptures, are provided to us so that we may be ready when he does arrive and we are raptured from this earth to safety and away from the death and destruction that will befall the earth and its inhabitants.
No One Knows the Day or Hour
Matthew 24:36-44 “Now concerning that day and hour no one knows – neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son – except the Father only. As the days of Noah were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be. For in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah boarded the ark. They didn’t know until the flood came and swept them all away. So this is the way the coming of the Son of Man will be: Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one left. Therefore be alter, since you don’t know what day your Lord is coming. But know this: If the homeowner had known what time the thief was coming, he would have stayed alert and not let his house be broken into. This is why you also must be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”
There have been many times in which judgment has come to the inhabitants of earth including in this very day and age. Christ uses the example of one of those times in the scripture above. This is to indicate that judgment will come once again to ALL the inhabitants of earth as it did in Noah’s time. But it is also a warning and a chance to prepare yourself for his coming – so that you will have the opportunity at eternal life and escape the wrath of judgment that will come once again to all the inhabitants of the earth at Armageddon.
To answer my friend’s question, no, not everyone goes to heaven. Only those who are deemed as being worthy based on the condition of their heart and acceptance of Christ as their Lord and Savior. In the past, and right up until the time of the rapture (and second rapture if it occurs), those who passed over were given an opportunity after life to accept the truth, Christ as their savior and Father Yahweh’s sovereign laws. Some do… others do not. Those who do accept are permitted to cross over and those who do not are not.
Armageddon will be a cleansing of all that is evil from this world and all of creation. Therefore, the times in which a second opportunity was given to accept truth will no longer exist and we must all be ready when the Son of Man returns with humble hearts and an acceptance of him as our Lord and savior.
The choice is each of ours to make under the gift of free will. Some may feel that it is unfair that not all are permitted into heaven and that there are conditions that must be met in order to obtain the opportunity of eternal life and admittance into Christ’s Kingdom; but is it? This is, after all, Father’s creation.
If you understand that and accept it whole-heartedly, then you will also understand the importance of being ready and of doing all that you can to prepare yourself for the Son of Man’s return. For each of us are responsible for working out our own salvation. Our loving savior Christ Jesus went away to prepare a place for us. The path has been prepared and laid before us. And now it is up to each of us to prepare ourselves and be ready for his return.
Matthew 22:4 Again, he sent out other slaves, and said, “Tell those who are invited: Look, I’ve prepared my dinner; my oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.”
Once again I’ve witnessed the amazing way in which Father guides and directs us all in doing Her will. Today a man named Waverly entered my life. I was outside the building I work at on a break and making a quick call when I noticed a man walk up to two co-workers that were standing not far from me. He asked one for a cigarette and she handed it to him at which point he sat down to smoke it. He was carrying a backpack, two canvas bags and a small round igloo cooler which he used to sit upon. It was obvious he was homeless. Even from where I was standing I could see that he had a kind face and a beautiful smile. I felt motivated within my heart to sit nearby, and I was able to hear him talking and giving thanks and praise to our heavenly Father. At some point he took from one of his bags, a Bible, and said “This… this is my protection.” My heart leapt within my chest. This man wasn’t hopeless or discontent at all. His faith was solid. He was happy. And, he was humble… giving all of creation to Father where it belongs when he said he was thankful for all that Father provided him with right down to the shirt on his back. Waverly gave a snapshot of his life as he spoke, telling us about being a cook in the Army during Vietnam, working for the airlines in Chicago and installing and refinishing hardwood floors. He also added that he was happy, because even without a roof over his head he was better off now than he was in the past, and he had faith that Father would provide and he knew that he was not alone. When the other two coworkers had to leave (one giving him leftovers of her lunch and the other what change he had in his pocket) I stayed behind. Waverly showed me what he was reading in the Word and turned to a page in Exodus. This led us to have a short conversation about the Israelites being homeless as they wandered the wilderness, and how each of us who are not of this world are essentially homeless as well. Because our directive from Christ to bring hope to the homeless was on the forefront of my mind, I spoke with him about things he might need and how our ministry via Arks of Safe Haven might be able to help him. I could tell that he was reluctant to ask for help but did accept the help that was offered. Before we parted ways I asked him if I might be able to pray with him and he took off his hat and bowed his head. I put my arm around him and we prayed together there in the alley. For those few moments I felt Father’s Spirit strongly within me and Her love for this man filled my heart while tears filled my eyes. As pondered our meeting I realized that Waverly brought me far more than I could have hoped to bring him. If I brought Father glory at all, he brought glory to Father seven fold via his faith, contentedness and humility even amidst the tribulation of being without a roof over his head and a place to call home. In my book, this is a man to look up to and I don’t know if Waverly will ever know the impact he made on my life today, but I pray that Father bless this man and that one day, Father willing, that we meet again in the Kingdom. Through this man, I was humbled and via this experience Father helped me to realize the deeper meanings of the Way. She showed me how truly blessed and fortunate I am in so many ways and I can’t help but feel guilty for not fully and more completely realizing it before now. While I was grateful before, now my gratitude is increased immeasurably and I seek forgiveness for my own ignorance. I set out to do Father’s will in helping one of Her children and instead She helped me via that child. It’s so deep and complex and yet at the same time incredibly simple – so much so that I know it was Father working amidst us. It’s almost unimaginable and yet so perfect that I recognize it as Father’s work. She never ceases to amaze me. While I provided this man nourishment for his vessel, he provided me nourishment for my soul and I pray with every fiber of my body and molecule of energy that I am, that I was or will be able to return to him what he brought to me today. Please Father, help me to shine Your light brightly – as brightly as I saw Your light shining in Waverly, and may You continue to be his protection and he Your child. Amen.
There are many Apocalyptic Christian theories centering on the Book of Revelation. One of them is in regards to New World Order. Where this term came from I do not know, as it is not mentioned in the scriptures, but some evangelical Christian theologians include a prominent religious element based on prophecies in the Bible, including, but not limited to, the Book of Revelation, the Book of Daniel, and the Gospel of John about the coming of the Anti-Christ. They assert that agents of Satan are involved in deceiving humanity into accepting an international demonic order that has Satan and the Unholy Trinity (Satan, the Anti-Christ and the False Prophet), at the core of worship. Considering that most modern Christian theologians already accept the falsehood of a three-headed godship of the Holy Trinity (The Father, Son and Holy Spirit being one in the same), and many others accept the falsehood of water baptism being the only way to salvation or preach the gospel of prosperity rather than warning of the coming wrath, then it’s not a far leap to knowing that there are many other falsehoods they also accept and by which they misinform the masses. The only time that I have ever heard the term New World Order up until about a month ago was in relation to purely negative things and to be feared. They were things that had to do with Extra-terrestrials (either “Reptilians” or “Greys” or both), the Illuminati, Trilateral Commission, Free Masons, multi-national corporations, RFID tagging, chemtrails, UPC marking and gradual takeover through economic colonialism and many others. These are the things that most theologians and self-proclaimed experts will say are all signs of New World Order being on the forefront, that it is part of prophecy and that it is something to fear. Perhaps it may be something to fear, if you don’t know the truth. But if you know the truth then it is nothing to fear at all. I suspect that the twisting and convoluting of the term “New World Order” is just another one of Dawn Lucifer Satan the Devil’s ploys to mislead and misinform the masses and effectively blind them in the same way he has effectively mislead much of mankind into believing there are extra-terrestrial Reptilians, Greys and Aliens of a Galactic Light Federation in order to cause doubt in mankind’s mind as to the validity of the scriptures. He has also managed to twist and pervert what the term “New World Order” even means. Interestingly enough, this is just one example of how he plays mankind like pawns on a chessboard. Most would believe that our next president or government is that who would come to our rescue when in reality they ARE the Beast and they are the ones aligned with Dawn Lucifer in attempting to retain power and control over the earth. What they (world governments) don’t realize is that they too are only pawns and he has absolutely no allegiance to them. His only allegiance is to himself and his own agenda because all the while he plays both sides of the chessboard via these world governments in attempting to thwart prophecy and save his own sorry hide. Satan plays both sides and uses all sides against one another in this Spiritual War. This is how he works, because he is a liar – the king of all liars in fact. The coming New World Order will not be man-made. Nor will it be a product of any Anti-Christ, Reptilians, Greys, “Unholy Trinity”, Free Masons, Illuminati, or world corporations. The coming New World Order is that of the establishment of Christ’s Kingdom and most definitely NOT something to fear; unless of course… you are Dawn Lucifer, a member of his legions or… Anti-Christ. The reason that I fully and completely support New World Order is because I know in my heart what side of the war I fight on and this Old World Disorder has simply got to go. It doesn’t work, and it never will, and it can’t be fixed. Mankind has had a hand in destroying the earth to the point that no amount of scientific intervention into “Climate Change” or “Global Warming” (i.e. The Tribulation) will halt. Multitudes of Father Yahweh’s children have turned from Her and towards the false teachings and despicable behaviors that were cultivated over time by Dawn Lucifer and his legions of demons’ influences. We have all had a hand in making the world what it is, but over and above all else this has become a world of Dawn Lucifer’s making. Isaiah 65:17 [A New Creation] “For I will create a new heaven and a new earth; the past events will not be remembered or come to mind.” Isaiah 66:22 “For just as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, will endure before Me” – the LORD’s declaration – “so will your offspring and your name endure.” 2 Peter 3:13 “But based on His promise, we wait for new heavens and a new earth, where righteousness will dwell.” Revelation 21:1 [The New Creation] Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea existed no longer. While the earth itself will not pass away entirely, the establishment of New World Order via Christ’s Kingdom will be exactly that: New World Order. It will be a New World and it will be one of order rather than chaos, peace and righteousness, harmony and love like the world has never seen or experienced before. And all the old ways of Dawn Lucifer will be done away with for a thousand years until he is again let loose for a short time in order to test mankind. New World Order, for those who believe and accept Christ as their Lord and Savior and who have a heart that is judged by Father to be of a good and humble condition, is something to welcome. But for those who do not believe, or who prefer the ways of this world, it is something to fear because even before it is established they will be dealt with via Father’s wrath at Armageddon and there will be no crevice or hole in the ground of this dying earth in which there will be safety or a place to escape. Bottom line when it comes to the end of the world as we know it at Armageddon, and the establishment of Christ’s Kingdom and New World Order, Father is not a fear mongerer – but Dawn Lucifer is. Father gives many warnings and many chances for us to clean up our acts out of Her sincere love for mankind before we are ever touched by Her wrath. Whether or not we choose, via our own free-will, to heed Her warnings is left up to us but Father does not wish that a single one of Her children should be lost. Dawn Lucifer, on the other hand, is the complete opposite of Father. He will attempt to bring all he can down with him when he looses this war and he has no love for anyone but himself. He wants all of mankind to ignore the many warnings and signs that tell us that the full force of Father’s wrath will soon be upon us and he would also like for us to believe that New World Order is a bad thing when it is not. This should not surprise anyone - he has had a hand in twisting the truth since the time of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and it has only gotten worse over the past 6,000 years in which the Spiritual War has been raging. I’m sure that people must look at me, and wonder why it is that I look forward to Armageddon. It’s not that I look forward to the wrath or the terror that many will endure or the loss of eternal lives. It’s because I don’t see it as the end of something good - I see it as the end of evil and beginning of righteousness. I look forward to and fully welcome the New World Order establishment of Christ’s Kingdom because it will be exactly what it says: (A) New World (of) Order. I am more than ready to see the Old World Disorder pass away and I will continue to fight to my very last breath for Truth and Righteousness, the Vindication of Father’s Holy Name and the establishment of the New World Order of Christ’s Kingdom Rule.
