Racing Towards The Tribulation: A Brave New World

Freedom in the U.S.A. is a thing of the past, and it's time to stop fooling ourselves with the premise that we still live in the "land of the free". It's over. This is a long post with multiple quotes, but these articles are all worth reading and digesting - and after that serious reflection is suggested - reflection on not only where we are now as a so-called "free" country, but just how close we are to the Tribulation.

The problem is, the freedoms that were intended for citizens of the U.S. have eroded so slowly that most people barely noticed.

Take a look at where we are today in America:

Preppers Are Now Considered To Be Potential Terrorists?

If you and your family store up lots of food, will you be identified as "potential terrorists" by law enforcement authorities? That sounds like an insane question, but sadly it has gotten to the point where "preparing for the worst" has become a "suspicious activity".

Storing up food is a completely peaceful activity, and preppers are generally some of the most patriotic and law-abiding people that you could ever hope to meet.

Unfortunately, prepping has become associated with "extremism" by many in the government, and lately we have seen some very disturbing signs that authorities are actively seeking to gather information on preppers. So are preppers now considered to be potential terrorists? Well, read the evidence posted in the rest of this article and decide for yourself.


This is just the beginning - it gets worse:


The other day, U.S. Senator Rand Paul gave a speech on the floor of the U.S. Senate during which he suggested that having "more than seven days of food" in your house could potentially get you branded as a "potential terrorist" by the federal government.

Someone missing fingers on their hands is a suspect according to the Department of Justice. Someone who has guns, someone who has ammunition that is weatherproofed, someone who has more than seven days of food in their house can be considered a potential terrorist.

If you are suspected by these activities do you want the government to have the ability to send you to Guantanamo Bay for indefinite detention?


And this:

Why in the world would federal agents be so interested in Americans that are "purchasing bulk food"?

Don't they have anything better to do?

As I have written about previously, authorities are also now using a tool developed by the CDC to conduct "door to door disaster preparedness assessments" in some areas of the United States.

The following comes from a local news report in Tennessee....

The Metro Public Health and the Tennessee Department of Health will be using a tool designed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to go door to door and check to see how disaster ready you are.

The door to door assessment will take place from 3:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Thursday and from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday. It will be in 30 neighborhoods in Davidson County that have been randomly selected to be the target of a door to door assessment.


Just check out these headlines from the past few days....

ABC News: "White House Unveils New Strategy to Fight Homegrown Terrorism"

USA Today: "White House unveils new strategy to combat homegrown terror"

CNN: "Measuring the homegrown terrorist threat to U.S. military"

The entire focus of the "war on terror" has shifted. According to FBI Director Robert Mueller, "homegrown terrorists" represent as big a threat to American national security as al-Qaeda does at this point.


Existence Of Military Detention Centers Signals America's Descent Into Martial Law

The existence of military detention centers in America has been acknowledged for several years in the alternative media. In 2007, the website Project Censored listed "Homeland Security Contracts KBR to Build Detention Centers in the US," as number fourteen in the top twenty five censored stories of 2007.

Project Censored pointed to a July 2002 article in the Sydney Morning Herald called "Foundations are in place for martial law in the US," by Ritt Goldstein. Goldstein wrote: "FEMA, whose main role is disaster response, is also responsible for handling US domestic unrest."

Fears of martial law in America are completely rational. A number of historians, authors, and journalists have warned that America is entering a period of violence, protests and social collapse in which the hijacked U.S. government will impose martial law to restore stability in the country.


Fed Interest In Food Storage Facility Connected To FEMA Executive Order 10999

On Thursday, Stewart Rhodes of Oath Keepers posted a bulletin on the organization’s blog reporting on federal agents demanding a food storage cannery in Tennessee turn over customer lists so they might discover who is purchasing bulk storable foods and storing it at the facility owned by Mormons.

He then speculates as to why the feds would demand customer lists. “DHS/FEMA wants to know which Americans have food storage so the federal government can at some future point confiscate that food. Just as with lists of gun owners, compiling such lists is the first step toward future confiscation,” he writes.


The facts:

In fact, the government codified the concept of food confiscation and redistribution when president Kennedy issued Executive Order 10999 on February 16, 1962.

10999 was one of several executive orders signed by Kennedy under the rubric of “national emergency” that extended extrajudicial power to FEMA, including the ability to control communications, energy, food, fuel, farms, transportation, highways, railroads, inland waterways and seaports, health, education and welfare. The EO also allows FEMA to organize citizen work brigades under government control and undertake the relocation of the population.

10999 also gives FEMA the authority to control all public storage facilities.
On June 3, 1994, president Clinton consolidated all previous FEMA executive orders into one all-encompassing order, #12919.


More below: The Sad Truth

As many have noted, FEMA is not an emergency agency. It is a martial law agency. It is often referred to as the “secret government” of the United States.

“It is not an elected body, it does not involve itself in public disclosures, and it even has a quasi-secret budget in the billions of dollars,” writes Harry V. Martin. “This government organization has more power than the President of the United States or the Congress, it has the power to suspend laws, move entire populations, arrest and detain citizens without a warrant and hold them without trial, it can seize property, food supplies, transportation systems, and can suspend the Constitution.”

If we take the above into consideration, it makes sense that the feds would be interested in keeping track of facilities storing food supplies.


Army Posts Job for "Internment Specialist" Following KBR Call For FEMA Camp Subcontractors

Following our report on December 6 documenting KBR’s outfitting of FEMA internment camps in the United States, Business Insider posted an article entitled The US Army Now Offers A Prison Guard Specialty Securing ‘Civilian Detainees.’

“Every soldier that enlists in the Army chooses a Military Occupational Specialty (MOS),” writes Robert Johnson. “Designated by a number and a letter, the 31E MOS now includes advanced responsibilities including command and control of prisoner of war and civilian internee camps.”


The listing is posted under “Careers & Jobs” on the GoArmy.com website. It reads in part:

Internment/Resettlement (I/R) Specialists in the Army are primarily responsible for day-to-day operations in a military confinement/correctional facility or detention/internment facility. I/R Specialists provide rehabilitative, health, welfare, and security to U.S. military prisoners within a confinement or correctional facility; conduct inspections; prepare written reports; and coordinate activities of prisoners/internees and staff personnel.
Some of your duties as an Internment/Resettlement Specialist may include:
– Assist with the supervision and management of confinement and detention operations
– Provide external security to confinement/corrections facilities or detention/internment facilities
– Provide counseling and guidance to individual prisoners within a rehabilitative program
– Prepare or review reports and records of prisoners/internees and programs
The job is similar to one offered by the Army National Guard. We covered it in July of 2009. Since our original post, the Army National Guard removed the job posting from its website.


Army Post Jobs For FEMA Camps

(This 'article' contains an interesting video link)

Only days ago, leaked documents from inside KBR, a Halliburton subsidiary, announced the activation of FEMA camps, with calls to staff a wide array of services inside the temporary emergency facilities.


Criticism of Islam Could Soon Be A Crime In America

When President Obama delivered his much-anticipated speech to the Muslim world at Cairo University in June 2009, the free world trembled while the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) gushed with praise and begged for a meeting with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The OIC is the largest head of state organization in the world after the United Nations (UN) itself and comprises 56 Muslim countries plus the Palestinians. It claims to be the "collective voice of the Muslim world,"



One of the fundamental laws of Islam deals with "slander ," which is defined in shariah as saying "anything concerning a person [a Muslim] that he would dislike." At the OIC's Third Extraordinary Session, held in Mecca, Saudi Arabia in December 2005, the organization adopted a "Ten-Year Programme of Action to Meet the Challenges Facing the Muslim Ummah in the 21st Century." A key agenda item of that meeting was "the need to counter Islamophobia" by seeking to have the UN "…adopt an international resolution to counter Islamophobia, and call upon all States to enact laws to counter it, including deterrent punishments."


Six years later, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is due to host OIC Secretary General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu in Washington, DC in mid-December 2011 to discuss how the United States can implement the OIC agenda to criminalize criticism of Islam
.

Justice Department convened a meeting with Muslim shariah advocates at George Washington University in WDC, chaired by its civil rights division chief, Tom Perez. Dwight C. Holton , the U.S. Attorney in Oregon who was also present, announced that, after speaking with Attorney General Eric Holder, he wanted "to be perfectly clear about this: training materials that portray Islam as a religion of violence or with a tendency towards violence are wrong, they are offensive, and they are contrary to everything that this president, this attorney general and Department of Justice stands for. They will not be tolerated."


The End Of Religious Freedom

Time has run out for the cause of worldwide religious freedom. On November 18, 2011, America chose not to extend any further lifeline to persecuted religious minorities around the planet. On that day, the U.S. government shut down the work of an important and unique American effort: the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF).

Oddly enough, the mainstream media does not seem to have covered this story. I certainly did not know about it. Did you? The only article about this appeared at CNS News.


The Nazification Of America

The fact that someone would claim that the Holocaust was “a big deception” is absurd. Yet, Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has made that statement, as well as saying that Israel should be, in his words, “wiped off the map.” Countless wars haven’t stemmed the tide of man’s hatred, any more than the continuing ideology wars being fought for the hearts and minds of people everywhere.

The big deception is the device used by any government, or regime, to propagandize citizenry into believing the current rationale for imposing the latest law, regulation or rule. The root of the deception, by corrupt governments, is to gain complete control, with unfettered abilities to imprison, impoverish or intervene into the lives of their citizens.


The root of the deception, by corrupt governments, is to gain complete control, with unfettered abilities to imprison, impoverish or intervene into the lives of their citizens. In the United States of America, that translates to altering, diminishing or eliminating life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The Constitution of the United States does not permit the chicanery of what is actually going on in America these days. Yet, a pervasive ideology that embraces government intrusion in almost every facet of everyday life and even in life’s seemingly most menial transactions, is becoming more commonplace. For many Americans, the change is frightening and they openly lament, “What is going on with our country? What can I do? How can we get our country back?”


Most recently, the internet has been abuzz about the National Defense Authorization Act, that would permit the United States government to detain any U.S. citizen, in this country, without cause or due process. The legislation would allow the government to declare any region a “combat zone.” This has followed a litany of legislation and executive orders confiscating the rights of Americans such as, The John Warner, Defense Authorization Act and the Enemy Belligerents Act.


What I find interesting is just how much current events in America parallel the events in Orwell's "1984":

Do you see a pattern taking place in America? If not, the pattern/process goes something like this. Fear or fear inducing devices are utilized to galvanize American citizens’ opinions against a mostly unseen enemy. That fear is used to foster support for policies, programs and “necessary” changes. Legislation is crafted to give government more authority than the Constitution allows, for the sake of “protecting the people.” A Homeland Security Department, yet another government agency, is created under the guise of thwarting the terror threats and protecting the Homeland and its inhabitants.


Update: " Feds and Rumors of Feds"

It's hard to believe that this story is actually worse than originally thought:

In short, the Feds went to a Mormon cannery in Tennessee and wanted the list of all those who had purchased bulk food. When the proprietor informed them that no such list exists, they asked for credit card receipts or anything else that would give them info on the customers who did business there. The owner then told them that it was a cash-and-carry business and they would not give them that info either. Good for them. It is none of the Feds business who is buying or how much.

I believe this is a precursor to accusing Americans of ‘hoarding’ food and passing regulation both prohibiting bulk food purchases and the seizure from homes of such food caches. This would be blatantly unconstitutional and fascist. It is a level of tyranny we have not seen in our lifetimes in the Land of the Free, but I fear it is almost upon us. Be very careful who you tell that you have stockpiles of food. Keep your private life quiet and protect your family and their future by being discrete.

There is soooo much going on that I can’t keep up with it. But I sense things are beginning to spiral out of control and next summer should be a doozy. Store food, get items to barter and buy guns and lead. Keep it to yourself and get ready for one hell of a ride. I’m sure we’ll hear much more on Feds and rumors of Feds…


FEMA Camps Going Live In All 50 States

The first paragraph characterizes the questions that we all have:

So it appears the government is stepping up its preparations. The government is now actively seeking contractors to provide services at FEMA camps across the country. This is scarier considering that the Senate just passed the National Defense Authorization Act which allows for the detainment of American citizens who are deemed terrorists. What is it they’re preparing for? Is this an attempt to lock up American citizens who disagree with the NWO? Are they preparing for a possible US land invasion by another country? Are they preparing for some catastrophic occurrence that they are keeping us in the dark about?


Read it an weep - weep for what this country once was, but will never be again:

For the better part of two decades FEMA detention camps were believed to be a figment of tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorists. As more information over the years has been made available through alternative news researchers like Alex Jones in his full length documentary Police State 4 and former governor Jesse Venutra’s FEMA camp exposé, it is becoming increasingly clear that the government has been taking steps for quite some time to ensure a rapid and effective response in the event of a national disaster or U.S. military deployment on American soil.

For all intents and purposes, FEMA / DHS is now activating camps across the nation – in all 50 states – and ramping them up for detainment if and when the need arises.
Security, while not mentioned in the KBR release, is an issue addressed previously under guidance of the U.S. military. In an August 2009 report we highlighted that the Army is Hiring for Internment/Resettlement Specialists, in which we noted:

It seems that the US Government is preparing for a high volume of military prisoners. We suspect these will not be foreign nationals, as we either kill them or detain them outside of the USA. So, one must conclude that these corrections, interment and resettlement specialists will be supervising US citizens. The military is calling them internment camps or resettlement camps. Back in World War II they were called by a different name.


Another Bill Ayers Connection? Obama's Anti-Capitalism Speech In Osawatomie May Not Have Been By Chance


Does it seem curious to anyone why President Obama chose Osawatomie, Kansas, of all places, to give a controversial speech attacking capitalism?

Trevor Loudon of New Zeal Blog does, and he’s not the only one.

Loudon points out that the odd sounding Osawatomie was also the name given to the Weather Underground’s publication. Of course, Weather Underground was lead by none other than Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn.


To top it off, Judi McLeod of Canada Free Press highlighted yet another Obama and Osawatomie-Weather Underground connection that was first exposed by Zombietime:

Here’s another one of those “coincidences” about Obama and Osawatomie unearthed by Zombietime.com back in 2008: “Obama’s Election ’08 logo, and the logo of Osawatomie, the newspaper of the Weather Underground are one and the same. “Confronted, they (Obama and Ayers) would laugh it off as coincidence and conspiracy theory, and generations of graduates from the public school system, would counter a unified: “So what?”

So when Obama was doing the talking in Osawatomie on Tuesday, Billy Ayers and the Weather Underground were pulling his wobbly strings.


Lets face it. We all know from biblical prophecy and common sense that the new world order and the world-wide government that will be formed during the Tribulation is entirely inconsistent with a strong and free America. It would never ever happen.

Additionally, we know that America is not a noteworthy presence during the Tribulation, as highly detailed biblical prophecy regarding the Tribulation doesn't even give the U.S. a passing glance.

So either America gets enveloped by the new world order of the Tribulation, or it becomes so weak that its presence isn't a factor.

We're almost there.

As sad and as disconcerting as all of this is - it shouldn't matter that much to a Christian.

Sure, its tragic, as individual freedoms are gone - a thing of the past.

But our permanent home is in a place called New Jerusalem and it is 'ruled' by Jesus Christ - a far far better place than even the best case scenario ever presented here on planet earth.

And we are headed there soon. Now, we see what is coming to the earth - things are taking shape for the coming Tribulation.

What surprises this writer is the fact that so much of the work will have already been done for the antichrist once he arrives on the scene. It previously seemed that the antichrist would appear, take control and then form his draconian world government.

Now, however, it appears that much of the work and progress for such a government is already in place.

Rather than worry about the current state of affairs in America and this world, we, as Christians have been instructed to look up for Christ's return - and to have great hope and anticipation for such. This mandate is crystal clear from the scriptures contained in Luke 21:28, 21:31, and 1 Thessalonians 5:11, just to mention a few.

That should be our focus now. The worse things get on this planet simply means that our presence in New Jerusalem is imminent.

Maranatha!

Scott-u r a very very brave man! I want to thank you while i still can for your faithfullness to God's Word and to us! While we still could have once saved our beloved nation, and frankly we still could if enough Christians would just repent and beg and pray to God. Its not going to happen though. Have you seen the 2 most recent Golden Report's? Jerry is now feeling like I have been feeling for quite awhile! It is well worth reading friends. Also you have been talking about the canada mexico usa union. No escape across the border option anymore either eh? I still don't expect to be outta here by the time this round up starts. I would like to, but I'm just not seeing it! Your thoughts? Also north caolinians, la marzulli is going to be in raleigh for 2 nights in early jan. he might be interesting to go and check out.

Hello Scott

I hope I haven’t been presumptuous in posting the above links. You did give me permission regarding error in the church, and although this is about Islam, the speaker does make valid remarks concerning the truth, in particular The Trinity, where some Christians do have a faulty understanding. If you don’t agree, I won’t object if you want to delete them.

May God continue to bless you in this work; obviously it is reaching a wider audience than just us Christian Prophecy watchers. Its exciting! :D

The US Commission on International Religious Freedom actually issued a press release on December 6 regarding closure. It's not a done deal yet, but Fox News appears to be the only one talking about it:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/12/08/federal-panel-on-religious-freedom-at-risk-losing-funding/

Sen. Dick Durbin, Democrat from IL is holding the commission hostage by withholding funding until his little pet prison project in IL is approved.

Robin said...

Anyone else wondering if this "federal prison" Durbin is pushing for (it's already constructed and on the auction block) . . .because I'm thinking maybe a FEMA Camp?

WVBORN56 said...

If it were not for the wrath of God being poured out during the tribulation and getting on in years I would almost relish the opportunity to stay and fight against the coming facism gripping our Country.

But I don't possess the fight I had in my youth nor the inclination to fight a losing battle in the flesh.

Instead it is time to turn our eyes and hearts toward our awaiting heavenly home and lay up for ourselves treasures in heaven. That is where I am choosing to "stockpile"...where rust and moth and decay can never tarnish or destroy.

Thank you Jesus for saving a wretch like me. As we reflect on the Christmas season remember Jesus came into a hostile world and offers all who will come "Living Water" John 4:10 says, Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and He would have given you living water."

This world offers only death and misery but Jesus offers eternal life and living water that completely satisfies. What a blessed joy to know He has paid in full my sin debt, has written my name in the lambs book of life and calls me friend. John 15:15

Maranatha!

Robin said...

WV, hopefully, God willing . . .we'll still have the power to vote. . .and if He's so inclined, our Country will be saved. However, believing all that's happening today was predestined and prophesied thousands of years ago, I think all we can do is continue speaking out against the evil forces gripping our nation . . .and vote. God will take care of the rest.

"Security and Defense: Preparing For Nuclear Terror"

Israel will hold a civil defense drill that for the first time will simulate the response to an attack by a dirty bomb.

"IN JANUARY, A “DARK CLOUD” WILL DESEND ON NORTHERN ISRAEL."
(Dark Cloud is the name of Israels civil defense exercise for a nuke attack)

WOW! JUST WOW!

Ezekiel 38:15-16

15.And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:

16.And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.

God Bless!

For anyone that's interested, there is a way to start linking up with like minded folk and supporting movements in your area. Go to http://connect.freedomworks.org/ and join the freedom connector...you will have the opportunity to identify and connect with all Christian, Tea Party, and Constitution groups in your area and get connected with like minded folk.

Next, its about time to be able to have the ability to communicate securely and safely. An email that uses military encryption on each email. Go to Hushmail.com Note, the longer and more complicated your pass phrase, the more secure your encryption.

Now might be a good time to think about establishing your networks and secure communication capabilities.

Note: If you use the free Hushmail.com, you must log on every 3 weeks or your entire account will vanish into the ether forever.

Alley, you could always come over here and forget to fly home.

Seriously, I have no idea how long freedoms will remain here now that Obama has a military foot in our door and the stage is almost in place for Antichrist to take power.

My heart goes out to all Americans. This is your hour of power guys and Ill bet everyone of you will be quoting prov3:5-6 with every ounce of freedom taken from you. And until jesus comes to snatch us away to celebrate the marriage supper may Isa 26:3-4 be your foundation for peace: "you will keep them in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you because they trusteth in you. Trust ye in the lord forever for the Lord Jehovah is EVERLASTING STRENGTH"

Your grandma gave you that old King James for such a time as this.

Last year a clean cut young 17 year old from our small town, Scotty McCreery, broke on the national scene and then international. He's a Christian and proclaims Jesus at every turn, to include the always present cross around his neck. He proclaimed that he would try to have at least one song of faith on any albums he produces.

His first album came out in October and went gold last month. One song is That Old King James.

I'd like to shake the young fella's hand. I've never heard of him but I'll watch out for his albums.

Alan Jackson; country singer, brought out a few years ago a gospel country album about his growing up going to a country church. Probably a dozen old timeless hymns. Something about those old hymns that brings peace to my heart and love for God and his Word.

Dave, if you have a moment give a watch to these two as he was rising to prominence. The second one is on national TV in competition and on the big stage. He had just turned 17 and the Lord was in both of them.

Speaking of Christian music, I keep my radio tuned to either talk radio or K-Love. Several days this week, k-Love has plugged Amazon's program of sending food in bulk to your door monthly with a simple sign up.

The thought occurred to me today . . .after another plug . . .that Amazon records would be an excellent way for the government could get a heads up on stockpilers. Maybe I've been reading too much alternative media lately . . .

Very impressed with young fella Caver. If you didn't know what he looked like or his age you would sware he's in his 30s. All that coupled with the accent he'll be singin with the best in "no tarm ohll" yee ha!!!

Caver said...

Chuckling...yea, I know. Kind of humbling, a year ago he was bagging my groceries at the corner grocery store.

He's a very active member of the Baptist church down the road and makes a number of commercials for Christian Charity groups....Samaritan's Purse for one. His parents have raised him in the church and the whole family is very active there.

The whole town is praying for him...he is going to be exposed to every temptation known to man.

Dave, I think he's already arrived. Last week he won New Artist of the Year at the American Country Music awards show.

Emails are coming in from all over the world about him influencing young folk towards Christ and church.

Regarding Jerry Golden (Golden Report)

He is a Messianic Jew with extra Biblical views. His so called ‘words from the Lord’ and his eschatology is based on a Post-tribulation Rapture which causes him to make miserable, faithless, un-biblical dire warnings about the church being in God’s wrath. He teaches that the Ezek 38 war of Gog Magog is part of Armageddon.

Years ago, he bought a picture from a street artist because he claims God told him it was the likeness of Elija who is now here teaching the Jews! And other nonsense...

Jerry Golden is basically into 'christian' mysticism that is not upheld by Scripture. It is occult.

In being deceived, Jerry Golden is deceiving others. There are some other serious questions being asked!

Dave Down Under said...

To go from check out chick to country singing star with his faith is obviously a calling on his life straight from God.

Cool story Caver about Scotty M. The wife and I were fans of the show and glad he won. I think the runner up may have been a believer also. I think it is interesting many of these recent singing shows are full of Christins witnessing for the Lord. Drew on the x-factor gave a testimony last week when she was voted out. I think it is pretty interesting this is occuring in the final hours of our time here on earth before the church is raptured out. Tim Tebow is also front and center in the NFL because of his faith again as time runs out on the church age. Praise the Lord for their powerful witness.

I trust both of you to be very biblically sound! So take 5 minutes and hop on over and read his last 2 reports and then tell me what you think! Also if you find anything contrary to the word in there, please let me know. Thank you very much! i love you ladies very much and i think uou will find the articles interesting. Dave down under...passport on me always brother :)

Dearest Ally

It is because I DID read those reports after I read your comment, that I knew I had to give an alert!

Jerry Golden is saying ‘thus saith the Lord’. Comparing JG words with God’s Word in the Bible, there is NO WAY God has given him what to say. This is the action of a false prophet! As with all false prophets, there is just enough genuine content to enable the false to slip through.
Using Scriptures to deceive by taking them out of their God given context is what Satan did when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness.

Matt.4:3And when the tempter came to him, he said, *IF* thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. Satan introduced doubt as he did to Even questioning ‘did God say’?

Matt.4:6 And (Satan) saith unto him, *IF* thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Finally Jesus took His Own advice and separated himself from the deceiver.
Matt.4:10Then saith Jesus unto him, GET THEE HENCE SATAN: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Jesus had clearly put what is written into its correct context!
God hates mixture. If one drop of cyanide is dropped into a glass of pure water, it still looks the same, but there is poison in the cup.

Galatians 5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

2Cor 2:14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
15 And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?
16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “ I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be My people.”
17 Therefore “ COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM AND BE SEPARATE, SAYS THE LORD. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you.”
18 “ I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty.”

1John1:6 IF we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.

In John 14:15 Jesus said *IF* you love Me, keep My commandments”

Which is to do as Jesus did and as Jesus commands, which is to separate ourselves from false prophets and false teachers. They may use God’s Word, but they mix it with deception – they are using a MIX; and God abominates mixture. It is rife in the Apostate church and it is now known as Syncretism.

We must follow God's Word not man's opinions. Get out, come apart, be separated – otherwise our Holy Heavenly Father CANNOT bless us as He wants to. For a while he is patient with our ignorance, but once we KNOW, He expects us to obey Him, recognise we have erred, and Repent. 1John1:9. If we persist, the Holy Spirit will be grieved, then quenched until finally we will be given over to our wilful sin with no more repentance allowed us. We remain saved; but are guilty of hurting our Saviour and we will lose out on His rewards at the Judgment seat of Christ.(Bema)

2Cor.5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad

Dearest Ally,

Giving alerts like this never gives me any pleasure. It costs, to be willing to speak up and be a ‘watchman’. Usually, watchmen get ‘stoned’ after giving bad news.

It is because I love and care for the people I know God wants reached and released from an entanglement they don’t know they are caught in.

This has come as a result of your background; the enemy knows all of our weakest areas; those areas that The Holy Spirit has to gradually work out of us by our willingness to repent.

Whatever some teach, we cannot make ourselves to be like Jesus; e.g. ‘love’. This is the vain philosophy of men.

To become like Jesus is solely the work of the Holy Spirit who will keep testing us to deny self and say Yes to Him. All our efforts are in the flesh and doomed for failure and burning.

In this instance, I nervously obeyed, but asked the Lord if Mrs C would confirm – Praise The Lord, Mrs C has faithfully backed me in this. :)

Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage

God bless you with His wisdom.

Hi Sister Ally, :)
Speaking for myself, the reason I haven’t “bothered” as you say, to read Jerry Goldens “reports” is because as Sister Sue said so well, “in being deceived, he is deceiving others”. As with most false teachers, Jerry Golden lures folks in with a grain of Truth here and there, but he is not Scriptural. Just so you know Sis, I used to read Jerry Golden many years ago, until it became obvious what his beliefs were, and that he continues to request funding for yet another “boat”.
At your request, I have read his “report”, the first being dated 11/28/11. Forgive me Sis, but I barely got past the first paragraph of this “report” and saw error in his statements. From his “report” “God's judgment that has already started and is being felt around the world. For the beginning of great sorrows has begun and will continue to get much worse.” What?! We, His Church, are not subject to “Gods Judgment” of the “world”, and we are NOT in the Trib.
Again, the pattern over years has not changed. Jerry begins his “reports” with how awful and dire things are, and then usually ALWAYS has a reason to suggest or subtlety request, a new boat is needed. For example after again as usual, in this “report” he says how dire things are, then he works towards guilting-or scaring folks by quoting Gen 12:3. That is quickly followed by why he needs another “boat”. Again, when it comes to the needing another “boat” part in this “report”, he is REALLY stretching it this time.
“There are things I don't know about this part of the ministry, for there is no way we can go to the US with the two boats we now have to rescue Jews. But if they can first be protected in safe houses and then moved to the Greek Islands, Cyprus or even Turkey it is very possible we could save some. And if we could purchase a larger boat we would be able to save many more. For when the war begins there will be no commercial flights coming into or out of Israel, and the only possible way will be by sea.”

Mrs.C said...

Which “war” is he speaking of? Armageddon? The ac will be in Israel for that war, why would he “rescue” and bring Jewish People back to Israel for that? What makes him think that he could even sail on the oceans at that time, let alone enter into harbour at Israel?
Again, WHAT?! Take U.S. Jewish folks to where?! One of his suggested destinations is “TURKEY”! Turkey has become an unrelenting enemy of Israel, and the Jewish People, just as Gods Word says they would be. Turkey is run by an Islamic government! With the years of soliciting “donations” for “boats” he should have a fleet of them by now!
As for the second article, 11/4/11 he writes with the same pattern. He begins with how dire things are, or are about to come (BTW what he wrote of is not new – JP articles tell us the same news), then as usual, his reason for needing funds for the “boats”. Jerry has this all in place for when Armageddon begins?
I hope this helps you Sis, see through Jerry Goldens very misguided writings…
God Bless You Sis! Big hug!

Hi Sister Sue, :)
I just read your post regarding Jerry Golden. Gods Holy Spirit truly is at work greatly in these last days!:)
God Bless You Sis! Big Hug

Sister Ally, on your request, I've just read Golden's last report. He brought up "safe houses".

A Christian couple recently contacted me (we hadnt met, but our friends through facebook) wanting to discuss something face to face, not over a phone or Facebook. I agreed and met with the wife at Starbucks. She told me about all these safe houses around the country and many more in Texas . . .talked about how the Jews would soon be persecuted and funneled through Texas and the safe houses were set up along the way. She was most definitely a post Trib believer and, being pre-Trib myself, basically blew it off.

But over the past couple of weeks, curious about some of what she said, and finding it sounded a lot like what Glenn Beck has been saying . . .looked into Mormonism, and it sounds eerily like what certain Mormons appear to believe. Clearly, these people feel God is revealing things to them, but I think Satan is working overtime to to confuse minds and delay the Trib.

The Bible tells us clearly, Jews will be persecuted. Muslims are even taught, oddly enough, that in the last days, allah will tell them to kill all the Jews . . .and as Jews hide behind rocks and trees, the rocks and trees will cry out, "behind me is a Jew, kill them"

Hello Mrs C
I am so glad you have gone into the details. I was aware about the money requests and how folk have been fooled by JG; but I didn't have any evidence to post.

Another point is JG is part of King James Only.

Robin
You are the second witness I asked the Lord for. :)

God bless you both for your faithfulness.Big hugs!

Maranatha!

JESUS IS IN THE ROOM! :)
Matthew 18:20
20.For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Thank You Lord Jesus! All Praise and Glory to You forever!

To you my Brothers and Sister, on this beautiful crisp Sunday morning...a little Prayer that was Prayed for me years ago, if I may, share and Pray with all of you...

May the love of God be above you to overshadow you,
beneath you to uphold you,
before you to guide you,
behind you to protect you,
close beside you and within you to make you able for all things,
and to reward your faithfulness,
with the joy and peace which the world cannot give -- neither can it take away.
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, to whom be glory now and evermore. Amen.

Correction to my post December 11, 2011 6:55 AM .

It should be 2Cor.6:14-18 - 2Corinthians Chapter Six (not 2)

The word translated ‘Un-believers’ is the Greek negative ‘apistos’
1) unfaithful, faithless, (not to be trusted, perfidious)
2) incredible
3) unbelieving, incredulous
a) without trust (in God)

Don’t be tempted, as some do, to think these verses only apply to the unbelieving pagans, those who remain lost and spiritually dead.

We Christians can behave like the unsaved unbelievers. Paul calls this being ‘carnal’ the ‘old man’ or the ‘old sin nature’.
Paul’s letters to the Church at Corinth was to correct their sinful behaviour.

1John1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

Thomas was a believer in Jesus who doubted! Jesus told him not to be faithless ‘apistos’ but believing ‘pistos’.John 20:27.
So when believers teach and act like un-believers, we are to separate ourselves from them.

P.S. I love you too Ally - I may not 'speak' it, because it isn't my way.
Stiff upper lip and all that. What! :]
Ahem - carry on!
