Hebrews Chapter 3

 

Hebrews

Chapter 3

 

:1 Therefore holy brethren (1 Peter 1:13-16, [13] says “Brace your minds for action…” TLV), partakers of the Heavenly Calling (Hebrews 11:13-16, 2 Peter 1:10), consider the Apostle (Emissary) and High Priest of our confession, CHRIST JESUS (Hebrews 2:17),

 

:2 Who was Faithful to Him (GOD) Who appointed Him (1 Peter 1:17-21), as Moses also was faithful in all his house (Numbers 12:6-8).

 

:3 For this One (JESUS) has been counted Worthy of more Glory that Moses, in as much as He Who built the house has more honor than the house (John 14:1-3) (GOD gave life to Moses and called him to lead Israel out of bondage, but JESUS is Life (John 1:1-4, 1 John 5:11-12) and The redeemer of the world (John 3:16)).

 

:4 For every house is built by someone, but He Who built all things is GOD (Genesis 1, Revelation 4:11).

 

:5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all His House as a servant (Exodus 14:30-31), for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward (1 Corinthians 10:1-14),

 

:6 but CHRIST as a Son (Matthew 3:16-17) over His Own House (John 2:13-17, 14:1-3), Whose House we are (1 Corinthians 3:16-17, 1 Timothy 3:15, 1 Peter 2 :4-8) if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of The Hope firm to the end (Matthew 10:22; “to the one who overcomes…” Revelation 2 & 3).

 

:7-11 Therefore, as The Holy SPIRIT says (Acts 1:16, 13:1-3): “Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness, where your fathers tested Me, tried Me, and saw My Works forty years. Therefore I was angry with that generation, and said, ‘they always go astray in their heart, and they have not known My Ways, So I swore in My Wrath, “They shall not enter My Rest (Psalm 95:7-11).”’”

 

:12 Beware, brethren, least there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living GOD (Romans 12:21, 2 Timothy 2:9-10, 3 John :9-11);

 

:13 but exhort (encourage) one another daily, while it is called “Today,” (2 Corinthians 6:2) lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin (James 1:14-16 LSD).

 

:14 For we have become partakers of CHRIST (John 15:1-17) if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end (Mark 13:13),

 

:15 while it is said: “Today if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion (Psalm 95:7-8).”

 

:16 For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses (Numbers 14:2, 11, 30, Deuteronomy 1:35-38)?

 

:17 Now with whom was He angry forty years (Deuteronomy 1:34-38)? Was it not those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?

 

:18 And to whom did He swear that they would not enter into His rest, but to those who did not obey (Numbers 14:26-30)?

 

:19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief (Psalm 78, 1 Corinthians 10:11-12 [10:1-15]).

Hebrews Chapter 2

 

Hebrews

 

Chapter 2

 

:1 Therefore we must give all the more careful attention to the things we have heard, lest we drift away (Mark 4:13-25, John 17:6-19, “Steward the Spoken and Written Word of GOD” Robert Morris, 1 Timothy 1:3-7, 2 Peter 1:12-16).

 

:2 For if The Word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just retribution (Genesis19 the judgment of Sodom, Acts 7:51-53, Galatians 3:19, Jude :5-6),

 

:3 how shall we escape if we neglect so Great a Salvation (Revelation 20:14-15), which at the first began to be spoken by The LORD and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him (John 3:22-24, 4:1-3, Mark 1:14-15, 1 John 1:1-5),

 

:4 GOD also bearing witness both with signs and wonders (Matthew 17:5, John 12:27-28, Acts 10:34-43, 1 Corinthians 1:22-25), with various miracles (Matthew 4:23-25), and gifts of The Holy SPIRIT (1 Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4:8), according to His Own Will (Romans 8:28, Revelation 4:11)?

 

:5 For He has not put the world to come (2 Peter 3:10-13, Revelation 20:12-15, 21), of which we speak, in subjection to angels (Revelation 22:8-9).

 

:6-8 But one testified in a certain place, saying: “What is man that You are mindful of him? Or the son of man that You take care of him? You have made him, for a little while lower than the angels (Psalm 8); You have crowned him with Glory and Honor (James 1:12) and set him over the Works of Your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet (Genesis 1:28).” For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not see all things put under him (Genesis 3:17-19).

 

:9 But we see JESUS, Who was made a little lower than the angels for a little while (Philippians 2:5-11), for the suffering of death crowned with Glory and Honor (Matthew 28:18, Acts 3:13-15, 1 Peter 1:20-21), that He, by The Grace of GOD, might taste death for everyone (Isaiah 53:12).

 

:10 For it was fitting for Him, for Whom are all things (Colossians 1:15-18) and by Whom are all things (John 1:1-5), in bringing many sons to Glory, to make the captain of their Salvation perfect through sufferings (Hebrews 5:7-9).

 

:11 For both He Who Sanctified (sets apart) and those who are being sanctified are all of one (John 17:19-23), for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren (Matthew 25:40, John 20:17),

 

:12-13 saying: “I will declare Your Name to My brethren; in the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You (Psalm 22:22, Hebrews 13:15).” And again: “I will put my trust in Him (Psalm 91:1-2).” And Again: “Here Am I and the children You have given Me (Isaiah 8:18, John 17:12).”

 

:14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same (John 1:14), that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death (Romans 5:21, 1 Corinthians 15:57, 2 Corinthians 5:21, Colossians 2:14-15), that is the devil (Revelation 1:18, 12:7-11),

 

:15 And release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage (Isaiah 61:1-3, 2 Timothy 1:7, Romans 8:14-17).

 

:16 For indeed He does not give aid to (Or take on the nature of) angels, but He does give aid to (Or take on) the seed (children) of Abraham (Because of His Covenants with Abraham).

 

:17 Therefore in all things He had to be made like His brethren (Philippians 2:5-8), that He might be a Merciful and Faithful High Priest (Hebrews 4:15) in things pertaining to GOD, to make propitiation (sanctification, appeasement, expiation, reconciliation) for the sins of the people (Romans 3:21-26, 1 John 2:2).

 

:18 For in that He himself has suffered, being tempted (Mark 1:12-13, Hebrews 4:15-16), He is able to aid those who are tempted (1 Corinthians 10:13-14, Philippians 3:7-11).

The Sovereignty Of GOD!

 

The Sovereignty Of GOD!

 

Sovereignty = One possessing the supreme power and authority in a state.

Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary And Thesaurus, Merriam-Webster, 2006

 

In the state of existence that is YHVH!

 

The first Words of The Bible demonstrate GOD’s Sovereignty, “In the beginning GOD created…” That should end the discussion with anyone who believes there is only one GOD.

 

Genesis 1 – Creation

Proverbs 8:22-36 Creation and The Spirit of Wisdom

Psalm 139 – GOD is Omniscient – He creates, calls, gifts and writes out our days in our mother’s womb

Isaiah 55 – GOD wants us to find Him and know Him

Matthew 1 \ JESUS genealogy and conceived by The SPIRIT of GOD

Luke 1          / JESUS announced to the world as The Savior of the world

Revelation 1 – Who JESUS is

Revelation 20 – What GOD Does – Millennial Reign of CHRIST, White Throne Judgment

 

What else did GOD do that no other god could or has done?

He knew that mankind, made in His image would sin and need redeeming even before He created the earth and humanity so He ordained the birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension of JESUS CHRIST to the minute detail and revealed it to His servants before any of it happened. 1 Peter 1:18-21

He revealed His plans for the Last Days even before JESUS’ Life and then let JESUS reveal it in detail to John so that we would be prepared.

 

GOD never defends Himself but He does describe Himself: JEHOVAH…

“Moreover He said, ‘I AM The GOD of your father-The GOD of Abraham, The GOD of Isaac, and The God of Jacob.’ And Moses hid his face because he was afraid to look upon GOD.” Exodus 3:6

“Hear Israel: The LORD our GOD, The LORD is One!” Deuteronomy 6:4

“For by Grace you have been Saved through Faith, and that not of yourselves, it is a Gift of GOD.” Ephesians 2:1-10

Christians have One GOD – Ephesians 4:4-8

Revelation 4:9-11

 

If we believe YHVH (JEHOVAH) is GOD then we have to stop questioning Him and we have to answer people who say something like, “If He’s a Loving GOD, how can He…?” with

“Because He is GOD and He made everything and created all life, He can do what He wants according to His Will. If you study The Bible you can understand that.” And “What other god is all Love and Peace?”

There are none because they are all demonic or made up by human thought.

 

“Whatever GOD pleases, He does, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps!” Psalm 135:6 Study Psalm 135 and 136.

Hebrews Intro & Chapter 1

Hebrews

 

Introduction

Although the King James Version uses the title “The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews,” there is no early manuscript evidence to support it. The oldest and most reliable title is simply Pro Ebraious, “To Hebrews.” *

 

The letter to the Hebrews – though the title is not original to the book – is written to Jewish believers to YESHUA of the first century, as we can tell from the content. At one time the author, who is not named, was thought to be Paul; but scholars today agree that the author is unknown. Whoever he is, he is thoroughly skilled in his handling of the Greek language, the Septuagint, and Jewish thought – particularly with reference to the Temple service. The date, though not firmly known, appears to be before 70 CE. We can conclude this from remarks that the Old Covenant is “close to vanishing” (8:13) and the question “Would they not have ceased to be offered?” (10:2), which suggests that the Temple sacrificial system was still operative. More important than the author or date is the situation of the Jewish believers being addressed. Despite their maturity and sophistication, some were on the road to abandoning their faith altogether and returning to a Judaism minus YESHUA. They were being treated as outsiders or even traitors to the Jewish people (13:13) and undergoing trials and persecution (12:3, 7) – though apparently no one had become a martyr (12:4). Others were following strange teachings (13:9) and had even stopped meeting with other believers for worship (10:25). But returning to traditional Judaism would also mean laying aside the faith that YESHUA had opened a way into the Heavenly Sanctuary, allowing for direct access to GOD and face-to-face prayer (10:19-22).

The author of Hebrews is quite concerned for the faith of these Jewish followers of YESHUA. Much of the letter is given to showing that YESHUA, The Incarnate GOD of Israel Himself, is Greater than anyone else – greater than the angels, greater than Moses, the bringer of a Greater Covenant with a Greater Priesthood than before and a Greater Sacrifice that fully Atones for our sins. Since this is true, abandoning YESHUA is equivalent to turning away from The GOD of Israel. Along with the emphasis on YESHUA come several passages, illustrated from The TANAKH, warning that turning from trust in YESHUA will bring consequences. But the author wants to encourage, not scold. He points in chapter 11 to a “hall of faith” of Jewish heroes who followed GOD in spite of obstacles and even persecution, setting an example for us today. To those who persevere a Sabbath-rest with The LORD is promised (4:8-10). And how does perseverance come? By “focusing on YESHUA, The Initiator and Perfecter of faith” (12:2). Amen! **

 

TANAKH = The Hebrew Scriptures (Pentateuch, Prophets, Writings), Christians call the Old Testament. **

YESHUA = JESUS The CHRIST, Son of GOD **

Chapter 1

 

:1 GOD Who many times and in different ways (directly, visions, and dreams) in the past spoke to the fathers (patriarchs, judges kings, Apostles and others) by the prophets,

 

:2 now has spoken to us by His Son (Matthew 7:24-29, John 8:31-32), Who He has appointed Heir of all things (spiritual, natural and time), through Whom He made the worlds (the galaxy) (Genesis 1, John 1:1-4).

 

:3 Who Being The Express Image (2 Corinthians 4:4) of His Person, and upholding (Colossians 1:17) all things by The Word of His Power (Matthew 22:29, 9:6, Luke 23:34, John 20:21-23), when JESUS had cleansed us of our sins (Hebrews 7:26-27, 1 John 2:1-2), sat down at the right hand of The Majesty on High (Luke 22:69),

 

:4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance (Romans 8:16-17) obtained a more excellent Name than they (Philippians 2:9-10).

 

:5 For to which of the angels did GOD ever say: “You are My Son. Today I have begotten You.”? (Psalm 2:7) And again: “I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son.”? (Luke 3:21-22)

 

:6 But when He brings The Firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all the angels of GOD worship Him.” (Luke 2:8-14, Psalm 103:19-22, 148:1-5)

 

:7 And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits and His ministers a flame of fire.” (Psalm 104:1-4)

 

:8-9 But to The Son He says: “Your Throne, O GOD, is forever and ever; a Scepter of Righteousness is The Scepter of Your Kingdom. You have Loved Righteousness; therefore GOD, Your GOD has Anointed You with The Oil of Gladness more than Your companions.” (Psalm 45:6-7, Proverbs 15:9, Zephaniah 3:17)

 

:10 And: “You LORD, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.” (Genesis 1, John 1:1-4, Psalm 102:25, Proverbs 8:12,22-28)

 

:11-12 “They will perish, but you remain (Matthew 5:17-18); and they will all grow old like a garment; like a cloak You will fold them up, and they will be changed (Isaiah 34:4, Revelation 6:13-14, Isaiah 51:6). But you are the same, and Your years will not fail.” (Revelation 1:8, Hebrews 13:8),

 

:13 But to which of the angels has He ever said: “Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool.”? (Psalm 110:12, Matthew 22:44, 1 Corinthians 15:27-28)

 

:14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit Salvation? (Psalm 91:11-12, 103:20-21, Revelation 19:9-10)

Dream 07-24-2024

 

I woke up about 5:25 AM from my dream, I was with people in a public place and I sat down and heard a crack, I knew it was my cell phone in my rear pocket, I pulled it out and sure enough it was cracked in about the middle, but it still came on. Next I was at a place like when I worked at Qualcomm and Kyocera Wireless, I was talking with people in my dream I knew I had worked with (but awake I do not remember any of those people) we were talking about fixing my phone (my current phone is not a Kyocera phone) and then about people we had worked with, especially one who had been a manager.

 

Then we were outside on a large campus, like a University campus, heading inside. On the way we crossed a street and a crowd of people were talking as they were leaving a meeting. I saw and greeted a couple of people I knew, no one stopped to talk they all kept going in the direction of leaving the area; one I shook hands with and he made a comment about me collecting rent (I collect rents for my son Greg’s rentals) but he did not stop walking, they were all going the opposite direction we were going.

Then we were inside a building foyer and we saw George Runyan, Charlene was now with me (in my dream she always was there just not prominent) and we greeted him. He was in a hurry, but he was heading deeper into the building as we talked. We headed downstairs and he was talking about fixing the sound system, it was garbled, he thought it was a new issue, but Charlene and I both knew that it had been like that for quite a while. Then he was gone in the crowd of people and Charlene and I were heading back upstairs. The going was slow and Charlene was bowed over going up in front of me, I did not know why she was bowed over, I was in a hurry and thought about crossing over and using a different stairway.

As I was looking across and thinking about that I thought of being like a Muslim and holding a burning candle of “dowd” which is the name of the oldest son of a Pakistani Christian family I know who live in Pakistan.

 

As I thought about Dawood I woke up. I prayed for Charlene, George, Dawood and everyone in my dream.

 

Just as I finished this report, Dawood’s mother, Esther, called me from Pakistan, she had burned her hand cooking, her husband Farooq has a problem with one of his feet and Dawood was slightly injured in an accident but was recovering. Farooq is seeking to go to Canada for work and ministry and Dawood is studying to be a Missionary Doctor, he has one more year in his studies in Pakistan then he wants to transfer to the USA or Europe to finish his medical studies.

 

George Runyan was my first Pastor and under George, Charlene and I grew in faith and ministry for about 25 years. He was in electronic repair for many years and is a Ham radio operator.

 

Interpretation?

 

In the first part of my dream, I often dream about people and places where I worked; for 20 years in the automotive industry and 11 years in the wireless manufacturing industry.

 

In the second part of my dream where everyone was leaving a meeting and no one would stop to talk, I felt like they all were going in the wrong direction.

 

With George, he was going to do what he thought needed to be done, but he did not know the full context of the situation.

 

Charlene’s slow progress up the stairs while being bowed over seems to be the burdens she carries about others and about being accepted and recognized for her contributions. Her progression is resisted because she cannot let go of the past and see The LORD’s purpose for the present.

 

With Dawood and his family I did not know what the problem was until his mother called, she shared about what was going on with them and I prayed for them. Then she asked about Charlene, our daughter and grandson, and our son and grandson.

Peace In Jerusalem?

 

Peace In Jerusalem?

 

When you see Peace in Jerusalem and Israel, then we have entered the last 7 years of human rule over the earth. It is the beginning of the reign of the anti-christ that culminates with the 1000 year Reign of JESUS The CHRIST over the nations of the earth. Which culminates with the end of the natural world and starts the Eternal Reign of GOD over the New Heaven and New earth.

 

Are you prepared for the 7 years of tribulation? Actually, they will start off very mild! A one world system (government) will rise up and save the world from wars and famine bringing peace to Israel for the first time since they reformed as a nation in 1948.

 

This worldwide system will have 7 main leaders who will rule over the earth that is divided into ten regions. Out of these will arise 1 who is the head over all – the anti-christ, and he will promote a religious leader – the false prophet, to run the one world religion. During this last 3 ½ years everything is going to go bad for those who resist the one world government and its supreme ruler; especially for true Christians.

 

The other sign that we are entering the last 3 ½ years of the Great Tribulation is GOD’s 2 witnesses (literally a judicial witness or by analogy a martyr, a record, a witness) also called olive trees and lampstands which symbolize fruitfulness and light; who stand in Jerusalem prophesying and causing there to be no rain during the time they are prophesying and causing water to turn into blood. At the end of the 3 ½ years the devil kills them and after 3 ½ days they rise form death and ascend to Heaven (Revelation 11:1-14)

 

Sorry, for those Christians who have been taught and believe that they will be rescued (raptured) at the beginning of the Great Tribulation (please read the Bible for yourself) the rapture comes at the sound of the seventh (last) trumpet (Matthew 24:29-31 & :32-51, 1 Corinthians 15:50-58, Revelation 11:15-19, 14:14-20) , just before the wrath of GOD is poured out on the earth (Revelation 15-16), that is what we are rescued (raptured) from.

Prefilled Ballots

 


Whose Family Had Slaves

 


Biden Was Aborted

 


MAGA

 


Secret Service's New Flag

 


Philippians 2:5-7

 

“Let this mind be in you which was also in CHRIST JESUS, Who being in the Form of GOD, did not consider it robbery to be equal to GOD (something to be held onto to be equal to GOD), but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.” NKJV

 

“Have this attitude in yourselves, which was also in MESSIAH YESHUA, Who, though existing in the Form of GOD, did not consider being equal to GOD a thing to be grasped. But He emptied Himself – taking on the form of a slave, becoming the likeness of men and being found in appearance as a man.” TLV

 

Think of it! That JESUS The MESSIAH, Who is GOD, determined it was a good thing to leave His GODLY Form and become a human to serve us in obedience to The Father’s Will, rather than remain in Heaven and be served by us; so that He could save us from our eternal damnation.

Being Conformed?

 

Being Conformed? 

We are being conformed by the trials, tribulations and persecutions of life, the question is, “Conformed into what?”

EVERYONE alive has trials, tribulations and persecutions in life, how we respond to them determines what we are conformed into.

Study 2 Corinthians 4-5 This is why we experience the following:

Trials, Tribulations, Tests, Persecutions:

Matthew 5:11

Matthew 10:34

Matthew 13:21

Matthew 19:3

Matthew 24:21

Mark 1:13John 15:20

John 16:33

Acts 8:11

Galatians 5:11

Romans 5:3

1 Peter 4:12

Hebrews 4:15

Peace, Not Forgotten, Patience, Rewards:

Matthew 6:13

Luke 8:15

John 14:27

John 17:16:33

Romans 5:1-3

1 Corinthians 7:15

Galatians 5:22, 6:1

Ephesians 2:14

Philippians 4:7

Colossians 3:15

2 Timothy 5:22

2 Corinthians 4:9

Revelation 1:9, 3:10

1 Timothy 6:11

James 1:3-4, 12

Romans 12:12

1 Peter 2:20

2 Thessalonians 1:4

Image, Conformed:

Genesis 1:26, 2:

Romans 8:29, 12:2

Philippians 3:8-11

It is not about us it is about JESUS! We experience what He experienced and if we endure to the end we receive The Reward that He received!

Rise Of The One World Leader?

 

Rise Of The One World Leader?

Is Donald John Trump The Antichrist?

 

I voted for Donald Trump in 2016, 2020 and I plan to vote for him this year!

All the news is about Former President Trump’s assignation attempt on Sunday, July 14th. The shooter had a dead bead on his head but Trump turned his head just as the shooter fired, causing the bullet to hit Trump’s right ear instead of entering his brain and killing him. The doctor who treated him and everyone else is saying it was a miracle, that GOD saved his life. Trump said himself it was only GOD who saved him! He is recovering with only a wound to his right ear. We do not know if there will be any complications due to this wound.

Now, he and every Republican and Democrat are calling for peace (“tone down the rhetoric and hatred”).

Revelation 13:1, 3

“Then I saw a beast (one world government and religion) rising out of the sea (nations), that had ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten royal crowns, and upon his heads were slanderous names…One of his heads (antichrist – one world leader) seemed to have been slain, but the fatal wound was healed. The whole earth was amazed and followed the beast.” TLV

In Revelation 13 an organization with seven leaders representing ten domains will rise from the nations to rule the world and one of them will have recovered from a deadly wound and everyone will marvel and follow him.

Just saying! Come LORD JESUS!

Day

 

Which day did The LORD make? This day

Which day is the Day of Salvation? Today

Which day of the week never gets here? Tomorrow

Which day of the week has no future? Yesterday

Which day of the week has a future? Today

Which day of the week is the most important? Today

Which day of the week should we not worry about? Tomorrow

 

Have you asked JESUS to forgive you your sins of yesterday?

Are you seeking GOD today?

Then tomorrow, which is not promised, is taken care of by GOD!

 

Psalm 118:24

2 Corinthians 6:2

Matthew 6:33-34

Enough by Suleman Javid

 

Enough by Suleman Javid

 

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10

Thieves don’t break into empty houses! They target a house full of wealth and treasure! They know and study their target before attacking. Beloved, you should know that you are God’s house, full of His riches and wealth! Within you is life-giving hope that can transform a life and save a soul!

The enemy is attacking you because you are not an empty house! Let this truth sink in and start to walk in the authority Christ has given you! Enough is enough in Jesus’ name!

Are You Prepared?

 

Are You Prepared?

 

Do you believe that we are living in The Last Days? If yes, what are you doing to prepare for them? Are you waiting to be raptured? Sorry, The Bible does not teach that the Church is going to be raptured at the beginning of the Tribulation. The Bible does teach that the Church will be raptured, but it comes at the seventh trumpet, just before the Wrath of GOD is poured out on the nations of the world; after the 7 Seals and The first six Trumpets. Study Revelation 11:15-19, 14:14-20, chapter 16 and chapters 19-20.

 

Now that that is clear what are you doing to prepare for the Tribulation under the One World Government and the religion of the anti-christ? What is your plan when they demand that you take the mark or number of the anti-christ so that you can buy food and the necessities of life? What are you going to do when you cannot go to the hospital or buy medicine? What are you going to do when they demand that you worship the one world leader and his image? Have you even thought about it?

 

I believe that many if not most Christians who are waiting for the rapture will be so hurt and mad that they were not raptured that they will rebel against GOD; Who is not the One Who taught them the false doctrine of the good life and the rapture; and they will willingly and obediently take the mark and worship the anti-christ.

 

If you hold to your faith and relationship with GOD through JESUS, what are you going to do? How are you going to take care of yourself and your loved ones. Many will suffer because they have not believed this would happen to them and so they will not be prepared. They will stand in faith as best as they can, many will try to find others to help support them.

 

It is better to be prepared to support yourself and your family, even better is to be able to help those who have not prepared but hold to their faith and resist the way of the anti-christ.

 

JESUS told us to know the signs of the times in which we live and to be about the Work of GOD’s Kingdom in the earth so that we are ready for His Return. If we understand that at some point during the Tribulation that we will not be able to go to the market and buy what we need then we better have a better plan than to crawl into a corner, complain to GOD and starve to death; that will not Glorify GOD!

 

GOD gave Pharoah a dream and Joseph the interpretation of that dream and millions of people, including GOD’s People were saved during a seven year famine. GOD gave The Church, His People, the Revelation of JESUS CHRIST of what is going to happen in The Last Days. Should we not therefore take advantage of this information and prepare for the Tribulation that we believe is going to happen in our lifetime?

 

The Story of Joseph and The End Days Revival!

 

For those who do not know the story of Joseph: Joseph was one of Jacob’s twelve sons who his father loved and his brothers hated. The brothers sold Joseph into slavery and told their father that he had been killed by a wild animal. Joseph ended up in Egypt and eventually in prison. He interpreted a dream for Pharaoh that no one else could and Pharaoh promoted him to be second under Pharaoh to administer the interpretation of his dream.

 

The dream and the interpretation was that there was going to be seven years of bountiful harvest followed by seven years of severe famine that would affect the whole world. Joseph suggested that Pharaoh select a discerning and wise man to oversee the gathering and distribution of the grain during this fourteen year period. So Pharaoh selected Joseph, who by the end of the famine had made Pharaoh the wealthiest man in the world. It was during the time of the famine that Jacob sent some of his sons to Egypt to buy grain. Eventually Joseph revealed himself to his brothers and told them what they intended for evil GOD had intended for Good. The whole family was reunited in Egypt under Pharaoh’s protection, Jacob’s family numbered 66, plus Joseph’s family of 4 equaled 70 Hebrews were saved and resettled in Egypt as GOD had foretold. Study Genesis 39-47.

 

GOD has warned us in The Revelation of JESUS CHRIST what is going to happen during the last seven years of man’s reign over the earth. These events will culminate in the thousand year reign of JESUS over the nations from Jerusalem. If you believe that we are living in the End of Days, whatever you believe about the rapture GOD is giving us a warning so that we will not be caught unaware of CHRIST’s return at the seventh Trumpet! Study Revelation, at least study chapters 11, 14-17, 19-20, see what GOD told us is going to happen at the Last Day of the Tribulation and why you need to prepare. Study Matthew 7:21-29, chapters 24-25.

 

“Therefore whosoever hears these words of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock; and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on The Rock.” “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the heavens, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the sign of The son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see The Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with Power and Great Glory. And He will send His angels with the great sound of a trumpet. And they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” “But He answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ Watch therefore, for you do not know neither the day nor the hour in which The Son of Man is coming.” Matthew 7:24, 24:29-31, 25:12-13.

What Is The Kingdom And Righteousness Of GOD?

 

What Is The Kingdom And Righteousness Of GOD?

 

“Seek you first The Kingdom of GOD and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33

 

Matthew 6:25-34 is JESUS message to Believers that if you put GOD first in your life GOD will provide everything you need for life! This message comes just about in the middle of His Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5-7. Everything He taught before this point and after this point depends on how we understand and obey this command. (One of about 50 commands that JESUS gave Believers.)

 

John The Baptist said to those coming to be baptized for their sins, “Repent, for the Kingdom of GOD is near.” JESUS said several times, “The Kingdom of GOD is at hand.” or “You are near The Kingdom of Heaven.”

 

So what is The Kingdom of GOD (or Heaven)? Actually it is everywhere! GOD created everything that exists, and He is GOD (there is no higher authority) over everything; GOD rules over everything; everything is subject to GOD! But what John and JESUS were specifically referring to is the place in Eternity (not in the natural creation), where He Reigns over Everything. It is what the Bible calls The New Heaven and The New Earth where His actual Throne is in The New Jerusalem (remember GOD is not subject to time, He created time for us). He is always there because He was, He is and He always will be.

 

So what is The Righteousness of GOD?

According to Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance of The Bible, Righteousness from the Hebrew or Chaldean is: to be or make right in a moral or forensic sense; cleanse, clear, self; to be or do justice, justly, justify, or justify self; to be or turn to righteous or righteousness. From the Greek it is: equitable in character or action; by implication innocent, holy absolute or relative; just, meet, right, righteous; to render, show or regard as just or innocent, free, justify, justifier, be righteous. Wow!

 

So GOD’s Righteousness is that He is Moral therefore He is Just and The One Who justifies (Hebrew) and He is absolutely Holy and therefore He renders us righteous (Greek)! Wow!

 

JESUS told us to seek GOD’s Righteousness in the middle of His most pointed sermon on how to live a righteous life. Paul tells us that if we obey GOD’s commands with a pure heart JESUS will make us Righteous in GOD, 2 Corinthians 5:12-21; Peter tells us that GOD expects us to be holy because He is Holy, 1 Perer 1:13-21 where he is quoting Moses in Leviticus 20:7-8, 26.

 

So to GOD it is very important that after we are forgiven for our sins we live a life of faithful obedience to His Commandments so that we will be holy to Him and righteous before Him.
