Pretribulation Versus Prewrath Versus Postribulation Rapture?

There is much confusion today over the timing of the Rapture and Jesus' Second Coming. 

By "Pretribulation" Rapture is meant that Jesus will return for His saints BEFORE the 7-year Tribulation period. This is what I have always believed, since I got saved 44 years ago in 1980 at age 13. Here is a simple way to remember Bible prophecy:

• Jesus came 2,000 years ago TO His own (John 1:11).
• Jesus is coming at the Rapture FOR His own (1st Thessalonians 4:17).
• Jesus is coming at the Second Coming WITH His own (Jude 1:14).

By "Prewrath" rapture is meant that Jesus will return around the middle of the Tribulation period, but before God's pours out His wrath upon the world (aka, The Great Tribulation - Matthew 24:21). Respectfully said, this is what Pastor Steven Anderson and the new IFB preach. To be precise, Pastor Anderson errantly teaches that Christ will return 75 DAYS after the prophetic event known as the Abomination of Desolation (Daniel 9:26-27; Matthew 24:15). This is when the Antichrist claims to be God and demands that the world worship Him as the Messiah or be murdered (Revelation 13:15-18). Millions of people will die. Multitudes of born again Christians will be executed.

Although all saints will be raptured at the beginning of the Tribulation, many people will get saved during the Tribulation. They will be executed for not taking the Mark of the Beast. 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝟮𝟬:𝟰, “𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝘀𝗮𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗮𝘁 𝘂𝗽𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺: 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝘀𝗮𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗹𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗼𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘁, 𝗻𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲, 𝗻𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝘂𝗽𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀, 𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀; 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀.”

By "Posttribulation" rapture is meant that Christ will return AFTER the Tribulation period, at the same time as His Second Coming. If anyone has actually taken the time (which I have) to analyze what Brother Anderson is teaching, he contradicts himself bigtime. For example: He teaches that Acts 1:10-11 and 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18 describe THE SAME prophetic event. I totally and humbly disagree. Acts 1:10-11 describes Jesus Second Coming back to earth, when "every eye" shall see Him (cf., Revelation 1:7). But 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18 describes the pretribulation Rapture. These are NOT the same event!

I have heard Pastor Anderson teach in one sermon that the Rapture will happen at the same time as Christ's Second Coming, so he effectively sees them as the same event in prophecy. But in the following chart that I made to layout his beliefs, Pastor Anderson teaches that after the Rapture there will be 1,215 days of God's wrath upon the earth until Jesus' Second Coming. ....

This is VERY confusing, because Pastor Anderson also teaches that the Rapture will happen 75 DAYS after the Abomination of Desolation (AOD). I don't know if Brother Anderson realizes that he big time contradicts himself, but Christ cannot return 1,215 days after the Rapture, if the rapture happens at the same time as Christ's Second Coming. Go study his prophetic stuff and you'll confirm what I am saying. The guy is a doctrinal mess when it comes to Bible prophecy! 

In this chart from chapter 2 of Pastor Anderson's YouTube movie titled: 'THE BOOK OF REVELATION,' you can see in comment numbers 35 and 36 of his chart that he errantly teaches the Rapture will happen 75 DAYS after the Abomination of Desolation. Listen for yourself in Part 10 of his Revelation series, at 31:00 minutes into the video, where he states:

“When does the Rapture take place? 1,335 days into Daniel's 70th week.” —Pastor Steven Anderson, 'Revelation - Part 10' (Time: 31:00 minutes into video)

Say what? Here is another heretical quote...

“𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁.” —𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗟. 𝗔𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 (01:27:05 video, 'After The Tribulation' film) 

Kindly said, Pastor Anderson is making a fool of himself to say that he is not setting a date, when he just plainly stated that the Rapture will happen 1,335 days into Daniel's 70th week, and 75 days after the Abomination of Desolation...

“So, I'm not setting any kind of date, I never have and I never will—until I see the Abomination of Desolation and then I'm going to start setting to set a date. And hopefully I'm still alive at that time.” —Pastor Steven Anderson, 'Revelation - Part 10' (Time: 35:25 minutes into video)

That is DATE SETTING!

That is DATE SETTING!

Pastor Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892) refused to teach Bible prophecy, simply because he couldn't understand it. Too bad Spurgeon didn't feel the same about teaching salvation, because he was a multi-point toxic Calvinist who taught the Devil's fraud of Lordship Salvation. I always cringe when I hear woefully ignorant churchgoers and pastors (God help us wake up), praising Billy Graham (1918-2018), John MacArthur (born 1939) and Charles Spurgeon, because those men are all false teachers concerning God's simple plan of salvation.

I love and still support Pastor Anderson, despite all that has befallen him. He's my Christian Brother and I am proud of him for fighting the good fight of faith. We're laboring on the same team for the Lord Jesus Christ. The church on its worst day is better than the world on its best day. Pastor Anderson may have some blemishes and flaws, but he comes A LOT CLOSER to being right in standing wrong, than all the deadbeat, lazy, lackadaisical, Baptist pastors today who are not standing at all. They are sitting on the premises instead of standing on the promises of God. Hundreds of young men have been inspired to answer the voluntary call to enter into the ministry as soldiers of Jesus Christ, because of Pastor Anderson's godly influence upon their lives. The guy is making an impact for Jesus Christ!!!

I wrote this blog to address the various different Rapture theories circulating in the churches today. Some people deny the Rapture altogether, which I think it foolish to do. Read for yourself what the Scripture teaches about the coming imminent Rapture...

1st Thessalonians 4:16-17, “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

If you take the inspired King James Bible at face value, you can only conclude a Pretribulation Rapture.

Jesus Could Come Back Today!

Titus 2:13-15, “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.”

Jesus could return right now dear reader! The inspired Holy Bible proclaims it! God is so very good and merciful. Micah 7:18, “Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.”

The Sacrifice Of Praise

The Bible teaches that our great God, Lord and Savior is coming back again. Jesus could return today dear friend, and I hope He does! What a wonderful Savior we have, Jesus, the blessed Lamb of God! Make sure that you won't be left behind dear sinner. Have you been born again, Oh sinner, by faith alone in the death on the cross, burial and bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ?

How The Evil Federal Reserve Is Necessitating Communism In America

I read today on Alex Jones' truth-telling Infowars.com website that Kamala Harris has called for price controls. We will very likely see grocery rationing within several years. (By the way, if you have any difficulty accessing Infowars because of security screens blocking you, just use Incognito Mode. For Google, simply press Ctrl + Shift + N to open Incognito screen, and then enter your url into the address bar and hit enter.)

College students attend a university for 4 years to understand how economics and markets work, and yet they continually debate with differing philosophies on what is wrong with the U.S. economy and how to fix it.

But I don't need a degree in economics to see that the Federal Reserve is as evil and crooked as a dog's hind leg. They are neither "federal" nor is there any gold "reserve" anymore (not since President Nixon took our U.S. dollar off the Gold Standard).

The Federal Reserve is a classic Ponzi Scheme, which to avoid collapsing requires more continual reckless debt spending by our irresponsible complicit U.S. federal government. Such exuberant overspending causes inflation to rise (the more money they print, the less value it has, and then things cost more), which is why food and rent today are unaffordable for many Americans.

Consequently, the dire situation has become so bad nationwide that Marxists like Kamala Harris have said if elected she will implement PRICE CONTROLS for food and rent. Although this move to limit prices is absolutely necessary (so people can survive), it wouldn't be necessary if it weren't for the criminal Federal Reserve scam and our complicit treasonous government who have allowed this injustice since 1913 (when the ungodly 'Federal Reserve Act' was passed over a quiet Christmas weekend when most of Congress was absent).
Although price controls are necessary, it is COMMUNISM (taking from the rich to give to the poor).

Russian dictator Karl Marx summed up communism with one statement: "Abolition of private property." You see, with property ownership comes rights! When citizens can no longer afford to buy and own property and a home, they don't benefit from the accompanying legal rights which come with property ownership. The ultimate goal of communism is total control over the people.

Senator Ted Cruz' wise father Rafael Cruz grew up under Fidel Castro in Cuba. Listen to his Dad's wisdom.

The federal government couldn't care less about homosexual rights, all they care about is CONTROLLING THE PEOPLE. Mr. Rafael Cruz rightly said what is happening in America now is the SAME evil that happened to communist Cuba in the past. This is all about the DESTRUCTION OF THE TRADITIONAL FAMILY, preparing the masses of society to embrace the Man of Sin (Antichrist) when he comes.

We read in the Scripture from Daniel 11:37b that the coming Antichrist will “magnify himself above all else.” That is, the Man of Sin will worship HIMSELF! This is the very religion of Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (aka, “Lady Gaga”).

Tragically, government has become our God in the United States. The Satanic powers working behind the scenes choose who we can vote for. They choose how expensive everything is. They control real wages. They control the narrative and newsmedia. They indirectly control nearly every major facet of our lives. This is all preparatory steps to ready the world for the coming Beast System of Antichrist.

As time progresses we're going to see a Cashless Control Grid implemented. Hard currency will go away. A.I. technology will explode in popularity, from Amazon deliveries to police surveillance. Some amazing technologies are now being developed; such as, water-powered automobiles (Elon Musk has already made one), much more efficient solar panels, restoring damaged nerves in the human body, growing body parts in a lab, incredible drones, et cetera. The ARGUS drone can remain in the sky for several months, hovering 20,000 feet in the air, and can zoom in with astounding visual camera accuracy from 4.5 miles away.

We will also see horrifying chimeras abominations! Scientists have been playing God for decades. U.S. scientists have developed a new much more powerful and efficient nuclear bomb (as if they weren't deadly enough already). Yet, amidst such amazing discoveries and advancements in technology, there's increasing homelessness, rising inflation, government corruption and unprecedented immoral rot in American society. We're going backwards as we move forward. God only knows where the world is headed. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

It is not a mere coincidence that women are being forced into the workplace for families to survive. This has reduced the number of children families are having. This has caused workplace adultery, marriage tension and millions of divorces. Everything is a double-edged sword. It is not a mere coincidence that U.S. judges removed and banned the inspired Holy Bible (THE GOOD BOOK) from children's daily curriculum in all government (public) schools since 1962. The Devil has an agenda!

I Humbly Do Not Think Donald Trump Is The Antichrist

Revelation 13:3, “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.”

A blog visitor just send me our text Bible verse today, alluding that Donald Trump is the Antichrist because his head was wounded in the attempted assassination. I humbly disagree. Mr. Trump only has one head...lol. Zechariah 11:17 says the Antichrist's right eye shall be utterly darkened. I'm not sure what that means, perhaps a military injury. This is why the entertainment industry incessantly covers the right eye, to show their allegiance to Satan...

I've had people tell me that they once didn't believe in God, but then they saw all this allegiance to Satan which convinced them that if the Devil is real, then God must be real too.

I could be wrong, but I don't think Mr. Trump is the Antichrist. My understanding of the Scripture is that no one will be able to identify the Man of Sin until he actually appears and rises to power during the Tribulation period.

Having said that, it is painfully clear to me that Mr. Trump is not what he appears to be. I do not fully trust Mr. Trump. He openly lied about becoming a Christian in 2016, likely just because he doesn't truly understanding how to be saved. We don't get to Heaven by "being good," but by having Christ's goodness imputed to us by faith (Philippians 3:9).

I read that during World War II, over 85% of German churches fully rallied behind Adolf Hitler. I don't doubt it. I remember back in 2008 being utterly disgusted after President George W. Bush invaded Iraq and murdered 1,455,590 innocent people, and wicked Alaskan governor Sarah Palin said Bush was doing "God's will."

Just like that wicked woman Nikki Haley, who was photographed signed the bombs which were being used to murder over 40,000 Palestinians in Gaza. Miss Haley is sickening—a hardcore racist Zionist hellbent on genocide against the Palestinian people. That is Satan, not God's unconditional love and The Golden Rule (Matthew 7:12).

I would rather see Mr. Trump in the White House than that demon fool Kamala Harris. She said this week that if elected she will close the southern border. Unreal. She is a real bitch! Excuse the French. For 4 years she did absolutely nothing to stop millions of criminals from flooding into our country, but now to get re-elected she is pretending to care about the border. I love Isaiah 13:11, “And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.” Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

Satan Is Behind YouTube's Censorship Of Christians

2nd 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.”

The world is getting stranger every day! I just received two email notices from YouTube. The first one notified me that they have removed my video titled, "THE RAPTURE." And the second notice says they are worried in the YouTube community that I might kill myself because of THE RAPTURE. You couldn't make this insanity up!

The video was an excerpt from the 2012 Youth Rally at Shining Light Baptist Church in Morganton, North Carolina, by Pastor Danny Castle, in which the excerpt shows the Rapture suddenly happening while the pastor is preaching about it. I found the video. It is at 29:30 in this sermon, "WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN JESUS COMES?"

What Will Happen When Jesus Comes
(Pastor Danny Castle - Watch 29:30 in sermon)

The ungodly world mocks, blasphemes and attacks the things of God; but they allow all manner of voyeurism, homosexuality, adultery, debauchery and filth. I suggest that YouTube stops persecuting Bible-believing Christians, and start doing something to stop the pedophile groups who use YouTube to exploit children. 𝗜𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗮𝗵 𝟭𝟯:𝟭𝟭, “𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗹, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆; 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲.”

The Biggest Earthquake In History Is Coming!

Revelation 16:18, “And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.”

The King James Bible contains approximately 30% prophecy. The Quran contains none. There's not a book in the world, apart from God's inspired Word, that predicts the future, unless it has been planned by men. And if men could author the Bible, they wouldn't. But if for the sake of argument, they could, men could not plan such horrific events as the following shocking revelations:

Revelation 16:18-21, “And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.”

Good night in the morning! Wow! The holy Bible foretells of the biggest earthquake in history! This will be a global event. The entire earth will shake, in every place on the planet. This worldwide quaking of the earth will be so great, that the cities across the world will crumble. All of the skyscrapers will fall. The tallest building in the world,[1] the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, which stands at a towering 2,717 feet, and has 163 floors, will crumble to the ground! There will not be a single skyscraper standing after this great earthquake. Perhaps you ask, “How do you know that?” My friend, read the preceding passage of Scripture again, if you missed it the first time, from Revelation 16:20, “AND EVERY ISLAND FLED AWAY, AND THE MOUNTAINS WERE NOT FOUND”!!! I cannot even image how horrifying this event will be.

Can you imagine an earthquake so violent that the mountains will sink into the earth? The Word of God foretells that the world's islands will be gone. No doubt, the earthquake will cause the mountains to sink into the earth and this will include the islands, which are really mountaintops sticking out of the water. And also, the oceans will be displaced by the increased mass of the land sinking into it, and the world's sea-level will rise significantly. Certainly, there will be massive mile-high tsunamis across the world. It will be man's worse fears come true! The cities of the nations will fall to the ground. The Bible says that the great city, which is Jerusalem, will be divided by the earthquake into three parts. Clearly, this earthquake will be a sovereign act of God. The global death tolls will be in the hundreds of millions, if not billions!

The Bible foretells that there will be great hailstones, weighing 75 pounds (a talent) each, falling from heaven upon the earth. Millions more people will die. Countless livestock will be killed. Crops will be completely destroyed. Billions of homes will be demolished, if the earthquake didn't totally destroy them first. The damage will be incalculable. Men will blaspheme God, because of the hail, but will still refuse to repent. Fools! Luke 24:25, “Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken.” Anyone who is slow to believe the Word of God is a fool the Bible says! I believe that every word from Genesis to Revelation is the Word of God, true and accurate, preserved and inspired, trustworthy in the beloved King James Bible!!!

I firmly believe that the mention of “the great Babylon” in Revelation 16:19 refers to America, specifically, the United States! God is justly going “to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath” for our gross wickedness!!! Think about it! America today is an ungodly hellhole, a repository of perverts, murderers, thieves and blasphemers. From James Cameron's movies that continually curse in God's name thousands of times (e.g., Avatar & The Abyss), to the Federal Reserve System (which is a criminal enterprise stealing from Americans since 1913); from the cesspool of iniquity in “Sin City” Las Vegas, to the fascist abortion industry which has murdered over 58,000,000 human lives in the U.S. since 1973; from the ungodly liquor traffic to the infestation of the U.S. with illegal drugs; from the ungodly homosexual community to the perversion of the Word of God in hundreds of English Bible revisions; from the ungodly shady business advertising nationwide to the denial of the inspiration of the King James Bible by many of our failing churches—AMERICA DESERVES GOD'S JUDGMENT!!!

You can try to prepare if you dare, buying all the personal home and car insurance money can buy. You can get the best umbrella policy available my friend, but you won't escape the horrors that are coming unless you are a born-again Christian! The saints will be removed, “caught away” (1st Thessalonians 4:17), from the earth before the horrors of the 7 year Tribulation period. We commonly refer to this Biblical event theologically as “the Rapture.” Although there is much debate over the timing of the Rapture, most Bible believers agree that the saints will be taken out of the world before the Great Tribulation (i.e., the last 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation period). I personally believe that the holy Bible teaches a pretribulation Rapture, which is the historical Baptist position. That is, the saints (Church) will be caught away (raptured) from the earth to be with the Lord, before the Tribulation starts. Please read my article, Logic Must Prove a Pretribulation Rapture.

I rejoice that I am a Christian! I am on the winning side in Christ Jesus!!! 1st Peter 1:7-9, “That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.” What an awesome Savior!!! Are you ready to meet your Maker? If not, why not get save right now, please!

We're Living In 'The Twilight Zone' Of The End Times

2nd Timothy 3:13, “But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”

The Twilight Zone was a popular television series created by Rod Serling, which ran between 1959 to 1964. Sadly, by all indications Rod Serling (1924-1975) rejected Jesus Christ and according to the Holy Bible, went to Hell forever. Jesus plainly warned in John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” The core of the New World Order (NWO) is an adamant rejection of the truth of Jesus Christ.

I am often reminded of The Twilight Zone as I hear the daily insanity in the news (local, national and world news). The world has become a large insane asylum. In particular, people just don't care anymore in first world nations (America, United Kingdom, Australia, China, Russia). And that indifference spreads like cancer, letting the poor starve to death in Africa. Palestinians lack water. North Koreans are cannibalizing their children to survive. Immorality has infected the globe. I read today in the news that Over The Past 40 Years, Rape Has Increased 1,472% In Sweden. Germany and Sweden are also being forced to tolerate millions of illegal immigrants flooding into their countries. Sweden is even considering a law forcing its citizens to house illegal aliens. Time would fail for me to mention all the insanity in the world today. A man can only handle so much insanity! Sometimes I have to walk away and don't listen to any news for a couple days.

Billions of people worship the Beast already. Hundreds-of-millions of AC/DC fans flash the El Diablo satanic hand-sign, showing their allegiance to the Beast (i.e., the coming Antichrist). We see allegiance to the Devil everywhere we turn in American culture. Even the 1984 New International Version (NIV) portrayed Jesus Christ as the Capstone (Antichrist) instead of the Chief Cornerstone (the foundation). I've been hearing in the news today that in Germany, Sweden and other nations, like the United States, illegal immigrants by the tens-of-millions are being forced into their cultures. The reason why is obvious if you understand the agendas of the architects of the New World Order (NWO), one of which is to destroy national sovereignty in favor of global government.

“No one will enter the New World Order unless he or she will make a pledge to worship Lucifer. No one will enter the New Age unless he will take a LUCIFERIAN Initiation.” —David Spangler, Director of Planetary Initiative, United Nations

All forms of individualism, national sovereignty, patriotism, faith in the God of the Bible (Christianity), moral conviction and religious exclusivism are the enemies of the NWO. For the appearing of the Antichrist to succeed, the whole world must be prepared to receive him, which means there must be a Global Godless Totalitarian Communist Police State!!! By breaking down all barriers of race, culture, country borders, religion and morality, the world's youth are becoming revolutionaries.

Listen to what Alice Bailey (1880-1949), a devil in disguise and mega false prophetess, foretold that youth would abandon organized religion and the Words of God in the Holy Bible. Interestingly, Bailey admits that the reason why youth will totally abandon religion and the Holy Bible is because of the quarrelling between their adherents. Now you know why Satan has published literally hundreds of different English Bible versions, and started thousands of new religions, to confuse everyone possible. By creating umpteen counterfeit religions, churches and Bible to confuse today's youth, Satan has effectively driven them into apostasy. So now the world's youth are instead looking to the the Communist state, worldly ideologies and humanity itself for answers. God is out!

“The new world religion is nearer than many think, and this is due to two things: first, the theological quarrels are mainly over non-essentials, and secondly, the younger generation is basically spiritual but quite uninterested in theology. The intelligent youth of all countries are rapidly repudiating orthodox theology, state ecclesiasticism and the control of the church. They are neither interested in man-made interpretations of truth nor in past quarrels between the major world religions.

At the same time, they are profoundly interested in the spiritual values and are earnestly seeking verification of their deep-seated unvoiced recognitions. They look to no bible or system of so-called inspired spiritual knowledge and revelation, but their eyes are on the undefined larger wholes in which they seek to merge and lose themselves, such as the state, an ideology, or humanity itself. In this expression of the spirit of self-abnegation may be seen the appearance of the deepest truth of all religion and the justification of the Christian message.

Christ, in His high place, cares not whether men accept the theological interpretations of scholars and churchmen, but He does care whether the keynote of His life of sacrifice and service is reproduced among men; it is immaterial to Him whether the emphasis laid upon the detail and the veracity of the Gospel story is recognised and accepted, for He is more interested that the search for truth and for subjective spiritual experience should persist; He knows that within each human heart is found that which responds instinctively to God, and that the hope of ultimate glory lies hid in the Christ-consciousness.

Therefore, in the new world order, spirituality will supersede theology; living experience will take the place of theological acceptances. The spiritual realities will emerge with increasing clarity and the form aspect will recede into the background; the new emerging truths. These truths will be founded on the ancient realities but will be adapted to modern need and will manifest progressively the revelation of the divine nature and quality. God is now known as Intelligence and Love. That the past has given us. He must be known as Will and Purpose, and that the future will reveal.” [emphasis added]

Most professed Christians today won't research the NWO, either because they are woefully ignorant, completely lazy, blatantly don't care, or have a sincerely held foolish conviction that such matters are not of concern to the new Testament Church. I care, and I'm not ignorant of the NWO, and I have diligently researched the matter, and I understand the Holy Bible to teach that it is every believer's duty to “have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them” (Ephesians 5:11).

By God's grace I am doing my best to wake other Christians up, but it seems that few are listening. I watch the hit counters for the great video sermons that I promote of the best Bible-preachers, and it is fortunate if 200 people watch them. Yet, some sleazy-satanic-sodomite-slut like Miley Cyrus sings a perverted song in shame, and she gets 100,000,000 hits on YouTube! Why should God bless America?

The Bible tells us in Revelation 12:12, “Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” Time is short friend. If you've been following world events, you know that the Illuminati (Satan's architects of the New World Order) are working relentlessly to destroy national borders, sovereignty, individualism, parental authority, Christianity, honest capitalism, faith in God and all barriers of race, religion and culture. This is all necessary for the Devil to create a world system friendly to receive the Antichrist. It is happening!

I could share thousands of disturbing things with you showing the fall of our civilization, but here's one. Corporations today prioritize profits over people. They just don't care anymore if there's no money in it. Music for the most part died in 1972, becoming commercialized. It's all about money today. A quality decent song's video may receive 15,000 views, but if a singer curses and uses vulgar language, the song's video will receive 500,000 hits! A Bible verse comes to mind from Jeremiah 17:9, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” And also, Romans 3:12, “They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” Modern technology has allowed sinful mankind to go further down the wicked road they were already travelling. The world has always been a wicked place (1st John 5:19), because Satan is the god of this world (2nd Corinthians 4:4). Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

Don't Be Troubled When You Hear Of War

Mark 13:7, “And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.”

I was listening to Alexander Scourby read the King James Bible today and something caught my attention from the book of Mark. While prophesying of future events, Jesus told His disciples that wars must come, and that believers should not be troubled when they here of wars. Notice that Jesus didn't just tell us not to be troubled about rumors of wars, but also of wars themselves.

This truth is certainly applicable in 2024, when we are hearing of actual war in Ukraine, and also of the escalating North Korean and Taiwan conflicts. It's been in the news that North Korea is threatening to fire nukes against the United States if provoked. Russia has warned the U.S. against threatening North Korea.

Certainly, Americans worry, as would any nation's people, when we hear of coming war. I have four precious children. My second daughter is a sergeant in the Army National Guard. But I don't worry about her being deployed, because that is her choice, and the Lord told us not to worry. Okay, I worry a little. She's my daughter, and I'm very proud of her. She has my blessings. My children know my views on the Iraqi War, which was a massive fraud. I am not against the military. I'm against the exploitation of our youth by the U.S. federal government, to do the dirty work of the Luciferian elite. A needless 58,000 American youth were murdered in the Vietnam War, which was based upon a False Flag Terror Attack, the fraudulent Gulf Of Tonkin incident.

Few people understand the true reason behind the Ukraine War. Russia and China want the $12,000,000,000,000 worth of natural resources in Ukraine. The Word of God tells us in 1st Timothy 6:12 that the love of money is the root of all evil. Always follow the money and you'll know the truth of any earthly situation. I hate money and what it does to ruin people. That is why I have never (and never will) take a penny for serving God. I have invested over 60,000 hours of intense labor into my website ministry since 2002, and I did it all for the precious Lord Jesus Christ, because of my faith in Him as my God, Lord, Savior, King and Friend.

Few people, even Christians, can grasp the significance of the things I just said. I highly recommend Commander William Guy Carr's (1895-1959) book, “Pawns In The Game,” for an excellent overview of what is really going on in our world today. Worry is inevitable, but we don't have to stay focused upon it. Instead, we ought to “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:2-3). Most people (and we all do it sometimes) focus on the wrong things, which gets us into trouble. If we focus on our problems, they will seem to grow bigger in our own mind. You know that what I say is very true.

Most of the things that we worry about never actually happen. In fact, nearly everything that we worry over never occurs. At least that is true in my own life. I am now 57 years old. I have been a born-again Christian for 44 years. I have learned to let things go into God's hands and just trust Him. When you can't see what's ahead, trust God Who knows the future. Faith Him when you can't feel Him. Never go by your changing emotions, go by the unchanging promises of God in the inspired Holy Scriptures (i.e., the King James Bible in English).

Although the following passage of Scripture may seem like an over-simplification, it really is the answer to a happy life free of stress and worry. Philippians 4:8, “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” That's why I only check my mailbox once a month. I don't care how important something may be, I really don't, because I refuse to live in fear of a mailbox. I check for mail when I decide to, not out of a feeling of worry that something important may be in there. Oh well, I'm thinking about Heaven. Amen! That is how I try to live. It works for me. When you have family time, or devotions, you ought to turn the phone off, so you don't even know if someone is calling. If you don't control your life, other people will, you can be assured of that.

Colossians 3:1-3, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.”

I absolutely love what the Lord Jesus said to all believers in John 16:33, “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” How precious!!! As Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) said, “Life is a vale of tears!” When all the world seems to be crumbling around us, and war is happening, bills keep piling up, and problems seems to never go away, the Lord wants us to always BE OF GOOD CHEER, because JESUS HAS RISEN AND IS ALIVE, and everything is alright in our heavenly Father's house. What a beautiful truth!

So, when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, BE OF GOOD CHEER dear saint of God. Our future is very bright. We are MORE THAN CONQUERORS through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 8:37). Romans 8:37, “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.”

Are The Jews Today God's Chosen People?

Genesis 12:1-3, “Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:  And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

My humble opinion in the matter is that God's promise to Abraham in Genesis 12:3 was solely for Abraham. The Bible tells us in Genesis 18:19 that God chose Abraham because the Lord knew “that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment.” I don't think Genesis 12:3 applies to all Jews; but rather, only to Abram (later to be renamed by God in Genesis 17:5 to Abraham).

God promised Abraham to make of him a great nation (Israel), and that through him all families of the earth shall be blessed. This speaks of the promise of the coming Messiah, who would save men from their sins and give them eternal life. Romans 2:28-29 plainly tells us that one is "not a Jew" who is one outwardly, but inwardly, “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.”

Galatians 3:26-29 teaches that saved Gentiles and Jews are “all one in Christ Jesus” (vs. 28), and that there is no difference for those who put their faith in Jesus. In my mind, I see saved Jews and Gentiles as "one" in Christ. When Romans chapter 11 says that “all Israel shall be saved,” I believe it means all of believing Israel shall be saved. It would violate numerous Scripture passages to say that unbelieving Jews will be saved. I personally do not believe that every Jew will repent to be saved at the end of the Tribulation. There has always been a “remnant” of Jews who believed, not all. We know that many of the Jews will believe on the true Messiah when He appears. Hosea 3:4-5 teaches that when the Israelites turn toward God, then He will regather their nation. That hasn't happened yet.

I like reading Pastor Harry Ironside's (1876-1951) books. I don't like dispensational teaching myself. Pastor Ironside said that dispensational teaching is not doctrine, but an overlay to help a student understand the Bible. I humbly disagree from what I have seen. In fact, dispensational teaching is very much doctrine (which means “an opinion”). I think dispensational teaching runs the risk of leading a Bible student astray from the emphasis of Scripture on preaching the Gospel, and instead emphasizing the future kingdom of Israel (aka, Zionism).

One of my favorite books by Dr. Ironside is "The Lamp Of Prophecy." Chapter 6 in particular is titled, “Will Israel Be Regathered,” which I think is a helpful chapter to read. Pastor Ironside wrote this book in 1940, eight years before present-day manmade Israel became a nation in 1948. I agree with Dr. Ironside's view that Israel will be regathered when Jesus Christ returns at His Second Coming. Dr. Ironside had no clue that Israel was about to be put back onto the map in May of 1948. I am not against preachers who teach dispensationalism per se, but I don't like it. My long time ministry friend, Pastor Max Younce (1935-2023) was (in my humble opinion) the Dr. John R. Rice of our generation. Dr. Younce has graciously freely shared all of his numerous Bible study books (which I cherish) on his church website.

One of my favorite authors is Phillip Mauro (1859-1952). Phillip Mauro was an attorney and theologian who wrote prolific writings to counter the teachings of Cyrus I. Scofield. I agree with his book, "The Gospel of the Kingdom."

Also, his book, "The Two Covenants."

I tried to simplify Phillip Mauro's teachings in this article. The basic gist of Evangelist Mauro's message is that dispensationalism tends to lead the student to focus on the future kingdom of Israel, whereas the inspired Word of God leads the student to focus on preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom (soulwinning). I realize that there are different types of dispensational teaching (e.g., Ultra-dispensational versus just dispensational views). I have no problem per se with how Dr. Younce and Pastor Ironside teach dispensationalism. However, I have a problem when some preachers idolize present-day Israel and the Jews. My humble opinion is that present-day Israel since 1948 is a fraud, a manmade imitation of true Israel.

I like to use Abraham and Sarah in the Old Testament as an illustration. God had promised them a son (Isaac), but they became impatient and doubted God. Sarah suggested that her husband impregnate their servant girl Hagar (I'm sure he made a big fuss with Sarah and was reluctant to do it...lol). Hagar got pregnant. When Abraham presented Ishmael to God the Lord rejected Ishmael as the son of promise, because Abraham and Sarah had taken matters into their own hands instead of trusting the Lord (we're all guilty of doing that). Likewise, it was The Council on Foreign Relations, and not God, who put Israel (as a Democracy) back on the geographical map in 1948.

I think Pastor J. Vernon McGee (1904-1988) gets it 100% correct.

I agree with Pastor McGee that Israel today is no different than any other nation. Of the 12 million Jews in the world, 7 million have returned to Israel, but they still haven't returned to God. In 586 BC God cut off the Jews. That is, the Lord divorced the nation of Israel due to her perpetual spiritual adultery (idolatry) with false gods. In the Holy Bible the olive tree is a symbol of life and prosperity. The olive tree symbolizes the promise of God's salvation and the abundant eternal blessings that follow. Tragically, the Jews were cut off from the olive tree because of unbelief the Bible says:

Romans 11:20-23, “Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.”

Our merciful God desires to pardon the Jews, and welcome them back into  the olive tree of salvation and blessings, but only through faith in His only begotten Son, Jesus. Romans 11:23 teaches that God desires for the cut off Jews to be graffed back into the olive tree, but it can only happen by faith. Until they believe on Jesus, they are still cut off. God is done with Israel for now, until the Times of the Fulness of the Gentiles be fulfilled (Luke 21:24). This event is depicted in King Nebuchadnezzar's image in Daniel chapter two. The stone cut from the mountain without hands is none other Jesus Christ. This event will happen at the Second Coming of the Messiah, after the 7-year Tribulation period.

The Pharisees were arrogant, relishing in their Jewish heritage. John the Baptist rebuked them sharply, emphasizing the truth that God could raise up inanimate stones as children of Abraham if He desired. Is there anything to hard for God to do? Are we not all made of the same dust of the earth as rocks? Matthew 3:9, “And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.” John was effectively saying to the Jews, "Big deal if you're Jewish, that doesn't impress God." God is only pleased by our trust and obedience to His inspired Word in the King James Bible. 

As Christians we are commanded in the Bible to love everyone, just as God loves all humanity and died for them (Romans 5:6-9). It saddens me what has happened in Gaza this past 6 months. So far 33,596 Palestinians have been murdered (a genocide) as of April 7, 2024. It is horrible what Hamas did to Israel on October 7, 2023. But that doesn't justify the hateful retaliation of Israel, who have massacred tens of thousands of defenseless women and children in Gaza to send a message to Hamas. Sadly, Hamas doesn't care! Israel has much blood on her hands for slaughtering innocent people.

The reported crimes (if they are true at all, because the media lies so much) are atrocious. I remember back in 1990. I was at work as a mechanic and listening to the news as the U.S. was about to invade Iraq. The mainstream newsmedia was telling Americans that Iraqi soldiers took babies out of the incubators in Kuwait and threw them onto the ground to die. The American people were enraged and wanted Iraq blown off the map, all based on LIES! It was all an elaborate fabricated lie to justify attacking Iraq. The whole scene was staged to create propaganda! This sneaky tactic is as old as civilization itself, but still as effective as ever.

I do not trust our ungodly American newsmedia. For all I know no one was raped, or Jews baked in ovens, or babies beheaded. The mainstream newsmedia has lost credibility with the public. Dr. Hyles was so right, "The only thing you can believe from the newspaper is the date." Even so-called erroneous "fact checking" websites like Snopes have been caught lying. We need fact-checkers to check the fact-checkers!!!

They are liars! I don't trust the media, fact checkers, Pentagon, social media companies, government or anyone who stands to gain by lying. I am not sure what happened in Israel on October 7, 2023. But I do know that even if the horrible news is true, it doesn't justify Israel brutally murdering 33,596 innocent people (70% of who were defenseless women and children). I fear that the death toll will increase much higher before this present Middle East conflict is over. Just because someone murders one of my family members, doesn't give me the right to go murder their entire extended family. It bothers me that professed Christians support this evil. They are all for Israel, but couldn't care less about the Palestinian people. 

Cartoon evangelist Jack Chick (1924-2016) wrote some horrible propaganda tracts; such as, "Love The Jewish People." Jack Chick showed no regard or love for Arab people. He was a Zionist who idolized manmade Israel. Jack Chick's cartoon tracts praise wealthy Jews and demonize suffering poor Arabs. Jack Chick had some nutty theology.

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) always rooted for the underdog. The Palestinian refugees are the underdogs in this conflict (and have been since 1948). Evangelist John R. Rice (1895-1980) admirably expressed sympathy for the Palestinian people:

“I have a great deal of sympathy for that spirit of nationalism among Arabs who feel they have been robbed and defrauded and abused and imposed upon and who want back their own land. I can understand that. I think they will never be given back the land that was given Israel by the United Nations in 1948, but I think that provisions must be made for those millions and a third refugees in refugee camps in Jericho, in Amman, in Beirut, in the Gaza strip, and elsewhere. God loves those people and they must have the Gospel.” —Dr. Rice... “Here Are More Questions,” by John R. Rice, p. 315, Sword Of The Lord Publishers (1973)

I haven't heard the least bit of sympathy from American churches today for the suffering people of Palestine. I heard Pastor Robert Jeffress of the First Baptist Church of Dallas, a featured Fox News contributor, publicly call for preemptive nuclear strikes against Arab nations in the Middle East. What insane hatred! Pastor Jeffress makes me sick! What did Jesus say about having that horrible type of destructive attitude? Luke 9:54-56, “And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.” I think it is a very bad thing when pastors become politically biased in the ongoing Middle East conflict, and start taking sides. Instead, our heart's attitude ought to be that both Jews and Arabs alike need to hear the Gospel of free grace preached unto them. People need the Lord.

Here is a helpful Bible study titled, "God Will Keep His Kingdom Promises To Israel" (Pastor Max D. Younce). God is not done with true Israel, but until Jesus returns to establish His millennial Kingdom Israel won't exist. What exists today is a manmade deception.

On October 8, 2023, Pastor Greg Locke in Tennessee ruthlessly called for Israel to turn Gaza into a giant parking lot (i.e., to bomb them to smithereens). Israel has had their foot on the necks of the Palestinian people since 1948. Dr. John R. Rice is correct that the Arab people are hurting, They just want to be recognized. They want their own nation. I strongly disagree that the Arabs want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, but I wouldn't blame them if they did in lieu of how Israel abuses them. No doubt there are some radical extremists in Islam who would like to see Israel obliterated. However, 99% of Arabs and Muslims are peace-loving people who just want to get along with their Israeli neighbours. I don't like when Zionists group billions of Muslims into the same boat as a handful of radical Shiite Islam terrorist nuts. That is unfair.

Israel has made life intolerable for the Arab people. As this article plainly reveals, the Palestinian people are NOT Hamas, nor do they desire to be. Israel are murdering innocent people. Such inhuman injustices are nothing new. I watched a disturbing documentary about World War II. The Germans under Hitler's leadership were ruthless monsters. The Jews by far weren't the only victims of Hitler's war machine. Millions of Russians were murdered by the Germans. The small country of Czechoslovakia suffering great losses at the brutal merciless hands of Adolf Hitler. Upwards of 320,000 Czechoslovakians were murdered by German soldiers (263,000 were Jews). The Germans exterminated 73% of all Jews living in Czechoslovakia. When World War II ended the people of Czechoslovakia were traumatized, devastated and angry. They wanted their pound of flesh in revenge against Germany. A group of about 80 people (who were not Germans but spoke German) were horrifyingly lynched publicly by some angry citizens in Czechoslovakia. They ripped those poor strangers to shreds, exacting their furious hatred of Hitler and his German henchmen soldiers upon those innocent victims (merely because they spoke the German language).

The Bible teaches that the Arabs will always be in conflict with themselves and their neighbours. Genesis 16:11-12, “And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” This verse is true. When I went to Los Angeles for my first neck surgery in 2009, I stayed at a hotel in West Hollywood. At the hospital they had the insurance instructions posted in Arabic. I asked why. The nurse said the hospital is required to post any language if at least 5% of the local population speaks that language. In West Hollywood and around Los Angels I saw umpteen Jewish synagogues, and lots of Arab people. Just like the Bible says, the Arabs dwell in the midst of their brethren, the Jews. That is interesting.

To summarize, I do not believe that unsaved Jews today are “the chosen” people. They are lost children of the Devil, just like unbelieving Gentiles (John 8:44). God's promises have always followed a line of faith from the very beginning in the Bible. Deuteronomy 28:15-68 plainly describes the curses which God will inflict upon disobedient Jews. Why would God expect us as His redeemed children to bless a wicked people whom He Himself curses? Think about that.

The Bible is abundantly clear that only believing Jews will be graffed back into the olive tree of God's salvation and blessings. May I quote this helpful Scripture passage again from Romans 11:22-24, “Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again. For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?” Paul is telling the Romans that they too will be cut off from God's salvation and blessings if they refuse to believe the Gospel.

I full agree with Pastor J. Vernon McGee (1904-1988) concerning why present-day Israel is NOT the fulfillment of Bible prophecy:

“Israel is just like any other nation. Some think they're a little brutal, but my friend, they're on the defense over there, you can be sure of that. And they have to exercise a strong defense system. They're not backing that land in fulfillment of prophecy. They have returned to the land, but they have not yet returned to the Lord. When they return to the Lord there will be blessing. They have not yet done that! ...they went out in 70 A.D. And they actually have never returned to the land according to the Word of God. Now hear me very carefully because this is very important to see. They have returned to the land today, and it's remarkable what has happened over there, but it's not the fulfillment of prophecy, because the prophecy says when they return they'll return TO GOD!” —Pastor J. Vernon McGee; 'THRU-THE-BIBLE,' Hosea 2:19-23 and Hosea 3:4

In his 5-year “THRU-THE-BIBLE” commentary for Hosea 3:5, Dr. McGee emphasizes the biblical truth that there are more Arab Christians in Israel today than there are Jewish Christians. Galatians 3:26-29 teaches that only saved Jews and Gentiles are "one" in Christ, and of the seed of Abraham. Many unsaved Jews will repent during the Tribulation period to get saved by faith in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I believe this is what the number “144,000” refers to in the book of Revelation. They will be Jewish converts who become soulwinners. Toward the end of the 7-year Tribulation period, a remnant (not all) of Jews will turn toward God. At this time the Lord will defend them in the Battle of Armageddon, put down the Antichrist (the Beast), judge the nations, and set up His millennial Kingdom.

I'd like to also mention that I humbly do not agree with everything that Pastor Steven Anderson teaches. Brother Anderson is a popular figure today on social media. I love the guy for his soulwinning zeal, hard preaching and faithfulness; however, I disagree with him on about a dozen doctrinal issues. For example: I think he is way off on the timing of the Rapture. According to Brother Anderson, the Rapture will happen 75 days after the Abomination of Desolation midway through the Tribulation. This is date setting, which is theological incompetence.

I have watched his “Marching to Zion” documentary several times and I agree with it, with the exception that I do not believe in Replacement Theology (as he does). I humbly don't think there was anything to replace. Israel is Israel, and the Church is the Church. There has never been a time in the Old Testament (or today) when God blessed unbelieving wicked Jews. I do not believe that the Church replaces Israel, because unbelieving Jews have never been “The Chosen” of God. Unbelieving Jews (e.g., Korah and the Jews who rebelled with him against Moses) were swallowed into the fires of Hell beneath. From the very start God's promise of blessing was conditional (Exodus 19:5-6).

Also, I heard a pastor recently say that although God divorced Israel in the time of Babylonian's destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BC (Jeremiah 3:8), He remarried Israel when they returned from captivity 70 years later. I totally disagree. Nowhere does the Bible say that God remarried Israel. I don't believe God remarried Israel after 70 years when they returned to the land and rebuilt a new temple. Those Jews were still under occupation from the Medes and Persians. Israel never had another king because their nation was long gone! God was done with the nation of Israel, as far as them being a peculiar people zealous of good works, His ambassadors to the world with the Gospel. But the Lord did not cast away His people, so He made a way for the Jews to come back through faith in His only begotten Son. Any Jew today who desires to be a part of God's future nation of Israel, needs to be born-again. It's the only way (Acts 4:10-12).

I firmly believe that the true nation of Israel does not exist today, nor has it existed since 586 BC when God gave Babylon mastery over Jerusalem. Manmade Israel today has no divine protection promised to it. Luke 21:24, “And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.” I heard a preacher say that since the time of Jerusalem's annihilation in 70 AD by Rome, that great city has been trodden down 28 times! I believe that figure.

In contrast, the true nation of Israel will not be restored unto the Second Coming of the faithful Messiah, at which time our faithful Redeemer will establish His earthly Kingdom for 1,000 years. We will help reign with Christ (Revelation 20:6). Amen! The Jews today are still scattered throughout the earth without a king, without a temple to sacrifice, and without a legitimate nation. What exists today is an ungodly manmade democracy, which woefully lacks God's blessing. Tel Aviv, Israel, today is the “Gay Mecca” of the sodomite world. The Huffington Post called Tel Aviv a “Gay Paradise.” Israel today is the unholy land. If it weren't for the United States giving Israel $4,000,000,000 each and every year in welfare money, and giving them nuclear weapons to defend themselves, Israel couldn't exist.

When the Man of Sin (Antichrist) comes, he is not going to Rome, he is going to appear in the (likely soon to be rebuilt) third temple in Jerusalem, where he will profess to be God (2nd Thessalonians 2:3).

I don't like when preachers foolishly claim that certain chapters in God's Word only apply to the Jews. I've heard preachers claim that Matthew chapters 24 and 25 were only written for the Jews. That is preposterous. They errantly claim that Romans chapter 10 only speaks about the future physical salvation of the nation of Israel. However, Romans 10:3-4 plainly reveal that the Apostle Paul is speaking about the spiritual salvation of a man's soul. I believe that all of the Bible is written for all humanity, “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation” (2nd Peter 1:20).

We read repeatedly in the Scripture that God is no respecter of persons (e.g., Romans 2:11). Yet, Zionists do just that, elevating the Jews as gods among mankind. I think that is very wrong. It is a sin to esteem a Jewish person as being better than a Gentile. Dr. William P. Grady goes as far as foolishly calling Jews, “The Master Race.” That is nutty! Dr. Grady goes on to falsely teach that it is in the Jew's DNA to “run the world.” You couldn't make this stuff up. Satan is the god of this evil world (2nd Corinthians 4:4). Here's a great book by retired Canadian Navy commander William Guy Carr (189501959) titled, 'Satan: Prince Of This World.'

In the 1970's, Pastor James Modlish said publicly that he wanted to hire a man in his church, to do nothing but witness to Jews to obtain God's blessing, as if witnessing to black or Asian people wouldn't bring God's blessing. Listen to Pastor James Modlish's insanity for yourself! Preachers say the darndest things! It is a form of bigotry and racism! Jews are no more special than Gentiles. God loves all men. Christ died for all humanity, not just Jews (John 3:16; Romans 1:16; 1st John 2:2). It is offensive for anyone to suggest that God favors Jews over Gentiles. People are people. The phrase “to the Jew first” in Romans 1:16 does not mean in level of importance or social status; but rather, in time. The Jews received the Gospel first in time (chronologically in the Bible), and then through Israel God gave the world the inspired Holy Bible and the Messiah.

What Hamas did on October 7, 2023, to Israel should NOT be avenged upon innocent women and children in Gaza. It is wrong that Israel refuses to acknowledge the Palestinian people as human beings. Israel president Benjamin Netanyahu even called the people in Gaza “human animals” last October. That is terrible! They're created in God's image, they're not animals. The innocent people in Gaza didn't hurt anyone. They are poor people just trying to survive from day to day. Israel refuses to let them live in freedom. With all of Israel's blockades, it takes some Palestinians an extra hour each day to get to work. The sad truth is that many Jews and Arabs alike hate each other, and the fighting will never stop until the Man of Sin (the False Messiah) comes, who will establish a peace treaty between the Jews and Arabs. But that peace agreement won't last long until it is broken, and The Great Tribulation ensues, when billions of lives will be lost. That is why Matthew 24:15 calls is a time of “Great Tribulation” because of the horrific conditions which will exist at that time.

I humbly believe that our proper attitude as God's redeemed children in this world should be to always think live and do right at all times. That is why my favorite Bible verse for many years now has been Proverbs 4:23, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Be careful what thoughts you allow to fester in your mind and heart. My attitude and prayer is that of the psalmist in Psalms 51:10, “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” David was a wise man.

Our proper mindset toward the Jews should be that they are just sinful people for whom Christ died, the same as the Gentiles. We are all miserable struggling sinners on planet earth. Since God is not a respecter of person, neither should we be (James 2:1). If you think that Jews are more precious to God than Gentiles, then you are foolishly mistaken friend.

I humbly think that many pastors merely go along with the Zionist agenda today for fear of being criticized, rejected and ostracized by peers in the ministry, because the common consensus since C.I. Scofield's Zionist theology infiltrated the churches in the late 19th century is to believe that all Jews are God's chosen people. It is not a mere coincidence that Zionist theology was introduced to America's churches a half century before the present-day secular state of Israel was established in 1948. The Luciferian elite needed the support of the churches to achieve their Satanic plans. It is tragic that 99% of churchgoers are deceived by the Devil in so many areas today, including the plethora of hundreds of corrupt English Bible revisions, the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation, wrong repentance and Zionist heresy.

There is no legitimate nation of Israel today. Pastor J. Vernon McGee was absolutely correct, Israel today is just the same as any other nation. God never promised to save and bless Christ-rejecting Jews. Zionism is a cruel hoax, a fallacy. Just like Abraham and Sarah foolishly took matters into their own hands instead of waiting upon the Lord, so also have ungodly men taken it upon themselves to restore the manmade nation of Israel today (since 1948). Unfortunately for them, God does not honor or recognize heathen Israel today, because they do not honor or recognize His only begotten Son Jesus, who is the only true Messiah.

The Lamb Slain Before The Foundation of The World

Hebrews 4:1-3, “Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.”

I humbly believe that the "works" refer to Christ's sacrifice. In God's mind Jesus had already died, been buried and raised up before the world even began. Also, please read:

Revelation 13:7-8, “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. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

Although there is some theological debate, I humbly think the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" refers to Jesus, the Lamb of God (John 1:29). Romans 8:29 says that all saints are predestinated to "be conformed" to the image of Christ. Romans 8:29-30, “For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.” Calvinists often misinterpret this passage of Scripture, falsely claiming that God chooses who will be lost and saved. But we know this is untrue Scripturally, because numerous Bible verses teach that Christ died for all humanity (John 3:16; 1st John 2:2).

Jesus Died On The Cross For All Mankind

Calvinists errantly teach that Christ only draws those men who have been chosen for salvation. However, the inspired Word of God says that Jesus will “draw all men” to be saved. John 12:32, “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” Don't ever allow anyone to feed you the Devil's lie that Christ only died for some men. 1st John 2:2, And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” As you just read for yourself, Christ died for THE WHOLE WORLD.

God never chooses who will be lost or saved. But God knew in His foreknowledge who would trust Jesus, so God predestinated those saints to be conformed (not to salvation) to be like Jesus. God laid out a divine plan for the life of every saint before we were even conceived in our mother's womb. Jeremiah 1:5 says that before he was even conceived, God had ordained Jeremiah to be a prophet unto the nations. This verse condemns all abortions as evil and wrong. God is the only giver of life. Men do not have a right to frivolously take away human life, unless it is truly self-defense. Human life is sacred to God.

Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold says we don't believe because God chose us, God chose us because we believe. We as saints are "the elect" of God. That is, we are the chosen. God chose us because we believed on His only begotten (biological) Son, Jesus. We must remember that God does not live in time, mankind does.

God Exists In Eternity, Not In Time

Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023) says that God created time as a way of letting His friends (saints) know what He intends to do next on His prophetic calendar. Time will cease to exist in Revelation 10:6. God lives in eternity where there is no concept of time. So, yes, absolutely, I am convinced that in God's mind Jesus had already been slain and resurrected before the universe was even created. Three perplexing questions prove God's existence:

1. Where did time begin?
2. When did time begin?
3. How big is the universe?

There are no logical or even plausible answers to these impossible three questions except God. The Lord made the universe and all that is in it. God made time. The universe must have a boundary, doesn't it? I cannot explain this, and neither can you. Scientists tell us that the universe is 13.8 billion years old, and that the universe is continually expanding. But what is it expanding into? The only answer that makes any sense is that God exists, and the universe is His handiwork under His supreme control.
