<strong>DEATHBED VISION OF DAISY OSBORN, WIFE OF EVANGELIST T. L. OSBORN</strong> - <strong>GIVEN IN 1995</strong></div>
<br />
This morning the Lord awakened me and told me to post the deathbed vision of Daisy Osborn, wife of Evangelist T. L. Osborn. Daisy Osborn passed away in May 1995. If you have never heard of this vision, you should be asking yourself, "Why?"<br />
<br />
Judgment is not a popular topic in most churches in America, and it sure won't draw crowds to your church. Most churches, including so-called apostolic and prophetic churches, don't want you to hear these kinds of visions because they don't bring in the big bucks for sure, and God forbid that you should scare anyone!<br />
<br />
No, those kinds of churches won't be carrying the books of David Wilkerson and other end-time prophets like him, nor will you be hearing any messages from Matthew 24 or Luke 21! But, not to worry. Those churches will be closing down shortly anyway, thanks to government persecution. You do know that we are going to have persecution in the US, don't you? If you didn't know, that might be another "Why?" question you should ask your pastor next time you see him or her.<br />
<br />
Oh well, here's Daisy Osborn's deathbed prophecy:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>End Time Vision<br />Daisy Osborn</strong></div>
<br />
I lay sleepless and horrified, greatly vexed in the Spirit. The Lord visited and showed me things that will shortly come to pass. The JUDGMENT and WRATH of God will soon bring disaster and havoc to the world we live in. The DIE is CAST. God's clock is set. TIME is running out.<br />
<br />
'In a VISION' I saw: the face of the earth and the changing of the shape of America. It was drastically altered and reduced in size through terrible disasters. Hunger and suffering were every- where. The devastation caused by volcanic eruptions and fires were widespread and horrifying during this terrible holocaust.<br />
<br />
I saw Christians clustering together from all walks of life and many church affiliations. They did not care about their sectarian doctrines. The tie that bound them in their desperate hour was their common faith in Christ. They clung together as though their survival depended upon each other.<br />
<br />
After these terrifying cataclysmic events which the Lord showed me, all the evils of sectarianism and apostasy vanished among the Christians desperately struggling to draw strength from one another. Those who had been lukewarm, cast aside besetting sins and sought identity with the true believers. Cigarettes, pills, social drinking, marital cheating were repented of and amends were made.<br />
<br />
A new sense of values gripped the conscience of Believers. The new morality standard and modern license for laxity was like a remorseful hangover. Most of the Christians in the "visitation" were amazed that WE "were experiencing" and WE were witnessing His WRATH and JUDGMENT !!!<br />
Many social Christians were ill prepared. Their frivolous, unwatchful, imprudent lives had GAMBLED on Mercy & Grace, which they had thought required no reckoning---EVER !!!<br />
<br />
I saw hordes (believers) lost among the religious and Christ Jesus rejecters. As I looked, I saw where mountains were flattened. Believers were FLEEING to the desert to take shelter in caves & rocks. The DESOLATION was so terrible that it seemed NO ONE would be spared (Luke 21:34-36 KJV) Matthew 24:20-22).<br />
<br />
All but a few were full of remorse. Lamentations could be heard every- where. It was heartening to observe that during the FEARSOME DISASTERS-----UNSHAKEABLE FAITH held like an ANCHOR among the Christians. They knew they would SOON see the SON coming in the clouds of heaven and with Power & Glory!<br />

<strong>TWO PROPHETIC WORDS RECENTLY GIVEN TO ME: </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Thus says the Lord, "David Wilkerson's prophecies will surely come to pass!" </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Thus says the Lord, "Lights, out!"</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Larry Grecu<br />Baker, Florida<br />September 4, 2015</strong></div>
<br />
It is almost three o'clock on the morning of September 4, 2015. The Lord woke me a little after two this morning and told me, "David Wilkerson's prophecy will surely come to pass! David Wilkerson's prophecy is being fulfilled. Nothing will stop it! Nothing! His word from Me will not fall to the ground. It shall and is coming to pass!" What was the word that the Lord gave to David Wilkerson? What was the word that the Lord told me is surely coming to pass?<br />
<br />
On Sunday morning, August 30th, at four a.m., the Lord gave me a dream. In it He said, "Get up and read John Shorey's book." I knew the Lord was referring to the book, <strong>Part Two, Window of the Lord's Return, 2012-2020, The Unfolding Signs of the End Times.</strong><br />
<br />
As I was reading the book, I came across a prophecy given by David Wilkerson in 2008. He states, "Ten years ago, I wrote a book entitled, <strong>America's Last Call: On the Brink of a Financial Holocaust</strong>. In that book, I warned of the following events . . ." Wilkerson goes on to talk of the meltdown of the bond market; a brief, false sense of prosperity; a real estate meltdown, etc. And then, he mentions what we are beginning to see today: "There would be an ominous rise of homosexual power."<br />
<br />
A few days ago, I was looking for a book in my library, and I came across the book by David Wilkerson mentioned above. This prophetic book was written in 1998, and within its pages is a chapter entitled, "The Ominous Rise of <strong>Militant</strong> Homosexual Power" (emphasis added). <br />
I would encourage every American, Christian or non-Christian to buy this book and read this chapter. This is the word of the Lord that was given to David Wilkerson, a word whose fulfillment we are witnessing in America this very hour! This is the word that the Lord referred to when He awakened me this morning at a little after 2:00 a.m. This is the word the Lord spoke to me about, telling me that it would not fall to the ground but would be accomplished! This is the word of the Lord that was given to David Wilkerson, the word that the Lord told me is being fulfilled!<br />
<br />
Christian, do not listen to the false prophets, pastors, and teachers who are telling you that everything is going to be all right in America. They are liars and deceivers. Judgment is coming to America like we have never seen before, and Christians will not escape. Christians will be affected by the judgments that are coming. God is calling Christians to repentance, and especially repentance from believing the false prophets who are prophesying "peace and safety," and accusing the true prophets of being nothing but "doom and gloom" prophets.<br /> <br />As Israel of long ago was on the brink of judgment, God raised up the prophet Jeremiah to warn the people of coming judgment if they did not repent. Jeremiah was not received by the hierarchy of his day, just as many of the so-called "doom and gloom" prophets are not being received today. Jeremiah was slapped in the face by Pashur, a false prophet and chief leader in the house of the Lord.<br />
<br />
Not only did he slap Jeremiah's face, but he had Jeremiah thrown in jail for prophesying such doom and gloom. "The religious leaders, priests, and prophets were all telling the people that good days were ahead, a time of national glory, success, peace, and endless prosperity. And they borrowed their soothing messages from one another, encouraging thousands with their lies. They went about prophesying their nation and people would not suffer destruction" (David Wilkerson, <strong>Set the Trumpet to Thy Mouth,</strong> p. 22). <br />
<br />
Do these lies propagated by your religious leaders, priests, and prophets sound familiar? If they do, you might consider getting out of the church where you are hearing such lies! Do not let them put you to sleep! It just might be permanent, a permanence that will have catastrophic results for you and your family!<br />
<br />
Recently, the Lord gave me a five-part dream. In one of the parts, I was in a small church. As I watched, I saw people leaving one person at a time until almost no one was left in the church. I then heard the words, "Lights out!" I knew that the Lord was telling me that these words had a double meaning.<br />
<br />
He told me that He was beginning to call His people out of the churches that were lying to them (Lights, out!). He was calling the lights out of these churches. As the lights left these churches, those left were sitting in darkness, not realizing that the lights were out! <br /> <br />I then saw churches, great and small, closing their doors all over America. I knew that "Ichabod" was being written across the doors of these churches. The glory of the Lord had departed. Why? The Lord spoke to me that because people are not being warned to depart from their sins - especially fornication and adultery in the church - He was pulling out the lights from and putting out the lights in the churches in America. Again, some people would not even realize that they were left sitting in darkness!<br />
<br />
When was this dream given? August 16th, two days before the hackers released the names of 37 million customers of the Ashley Madison website. Coincidence? Believe what you want to believe. My personal belief: judgment is falling, and judgment is beginning at the house of God.<br />
<br />
Christian, this is a warning. How many more warnings will God give before even He is silenced? Time will tell. All I know is that we better heed these warnings. God is not going to let one prophetic word spoken by David Wilkerson fall to the ground. They will continue to come to pass. <br />
The lights are going out in the churches around America, and many people are going to be left in the dark. The Good News is that those who are walking in the light are being called out of the whorish Babylonian churches in America that refuse to repent. Hear the word of the Lord, "Come out of her, My people, that you be not partaker of her plagues." Judgment must begin at the house of God! If you judge yourself, you will not be judged!<br />lgrecu6http://www.blogger.com/profile/12339354142739263444noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631647463934566636.post-73241786472437689302015-08-10T06:38:00.000-07:002015-08-10T06:38:09.607-07:00WINNING THE LOST, THE BOOK OF JUDE, AND THE ACTS OF THE APOSTATES<span lang=""><div align="CENTER">

</span><div align="JUSTIFY">
In a recent blog post, I shared what the Lord had spoken to me regarding the book of Jude, while our family was on our 2015 beach trip. If you have already forgotten what the Lord spoke to me, I would suggest that you go to the blog and read what was said. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Jude is the last book in the Bible before the Revelation and serves as a short, but important, epistle which contains specific instructions for the last days Christians. In my blog post, I encouraged everyone to buy a commentary that I have had for years entitled, <b>Jude, the Acts of the Apostates, </b>by S. Maxwell Coder<b>. </b></div>
<b>
</b><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
If you have purchased the book, I want to refer you to a chapter that I think is going to become one of the most important chapters of Christian instruction for your life. This applies especially if you are a fervent soul winner or someone concerned for the lost, as all of us should be. The chapter is "Winning the Lost," found close to the end of Mr. Coder's book.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Many of us have had the concept that all people we witness to are alike and that all we have to do to win them to the Lord is to tell them the Gospel. However, it does not take long for one to discover that not all people are alike. Some people are so deceived that they need a rebuke before they can hear the truth. Others are so filled with doubt that they need a word of encouragement. And lastly, some are so ensnared in sin, that they become a temptation to those witnessing to them, those who have clean escaped sin.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The book of Jude, in two short verses, cautions the last days believers in the "how to" and the "what to watch for" of sharing the gospel. You will find these instructions to the wise in verses 22-23: "And on some have mercy, who are in doubt; and some save, snatching them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh." </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
These two verses are carefully and skillfully explained by Mr. Coder in the chapter, "Winning the Lost." In this chapter, he breaks down each of these types of witnessing situations and draws from other Scriptures many related examples. He also shows why we need godly instruction. Without this, Satan can easily deceive those who have a zeal to see the lost saved, but lack the fear of God. In these last days, we must have the wisdom of God now more than ever before. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
We must never think of ourselves as ones who are above being taken down by the evil one. Even now, we are seeing those who have led congregations, great and small, ensnared by Satan's lies. What these leaders were preaching as sin before has now become tolerated and/or outright acceptable behavior. As a result, they are taking themselves and their congregations straight to hell. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This is no time to fall back asleep. We must stay awake; we must stay alert. We must arm ourselves with the truth. The book of Jude and S. Maxwell Coder's book, <b>Jude, the Acts of the Apostates, </b>are timely alarms and helps for all last days Christians. Take the time today to read and meditate on these words of sound wisdom. You will save both yourself and those who are willing to listen to you.</div>

<div align="JUSTIFY">
I was asked recently, "Who's judging your prophecies?" My response to this individual was and is, "My prophecies are on FB and on my blog. You are welcome to read any of them and give me your judgments/comments." Of course, this is the same person who got upset with me when, after attending a meeting at his church, I had the gall to research something his guest speaker said. The speaker said that the word Peniel in the Old Testament story was a misspelling or mistranslation for the word Pineal (as in the pineal gland). The speaker also stated that this was going to be how God was going to restore super-intelligence to the Church. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I was sitting in the congregation and wondering how many people were swallowing this hook, line, and sinker. But, then I thought, "Well, maybe I just don't know how to read my concordance." So, I did the next best thing. I went to a Jew, Dr. Michael Brown. You might know him from "Ask Dr. Brown." His response to my question about Peniel and Pineal was short and sweet, as in something like, "You've got to be kidding, right?" I wasn't kidding. Of course, then I was questioned on FB by the above individual - the one who asked me about my prophecies - as to what I was doing Asking Dr. Brown. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Let's see. Dr. Brown is a Jew, a scholar, a researcher, and Bible teacher, and he just might be able to give me an answer to this nagging question I had to resolve. Apparently, though, this pastor had seen my question to Dr. Brown. I guess he thought I had let the issue die, but - you see - there was still that nagging question. I knew something was not right. You would think pastors would be thrilled that people are searching the Scriptures. The last time I checked, Paul lauded the noble Bereans because they searched the Scriptures to determine if what they were being told by him was true. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
There are some pastors who might be threatened by people questioning what they preach. My answer is, "Too bad, so sad." Christian, YOU have a responsibility to search the Scriptures. If your pastor thinks you are causing division by doing so, then all I can say is you better wake up. I tried to sound the alarm about a prophecy that was given by a well-known national and international prophet regarding Pope Francis, the Roman Catholic Church, and ecumenism, and all I got was a rebuke. I tried to sound an alarm when Kenneth Copeland, James Robison, and others were courting Bishop Tony Palmer, the pope's friend, and all I got was a rebuke. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I finally found some Christians who were awake. I attended a meeting in another state to sound the alarm, but the pastors were one step ahead of me. They too were not only questioning what was going on, they were warning their flock of the deception being perpetrated by the pope, Bishop Tony Palmer, Kenneth Copeland, James Robison, Ulf Ekman, and others. If you do not think this is serious stuff, let me give you this to chew on. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Within a couple of days of my attending the meeting where the pastors were warning their flock of the deception being perpetrated by all of the above, Bishop Tony Palmer was dead. Apparently, Bishop Palmer was out for a motorcycle ride in England when a motorist forgot which side he or she was supposed to be driving on. You can imagine the results. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Am I thrilled that Bishop Tony Palmer met with such an untimely death? No. But, we need to heed the following. There is a serious warning from the book of Deuteronomy, chapter 13, verses 1-5, to the prophets who try to lead God's people astray:</div>
</span><span lang="EN"><div align="JUSTIFY">
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
4 Ye shall walk after the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the Lord thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
If ever there was a time for Christians to begin reading and studying their Bibles, it is now. In the Old Testament, there is the story of a king who came to the throne of Judah. Back in the day, it was required of kings that they read the Bible as part of their duties in office. Well, it seems that this had not taken place for quite a while. You see, while there was a housecleaning of the Temple - a cleaning ordered by the king - someone came upon a scroll. They took it to the king because I guess they thought it might be something important. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Well, when the king read the scroll, he suddenly realized that it was the Word of God! AND, when he realized just how far the children of Israel had deviated from the Word, he had a royal panic attack! When was the last time you had a royal panic attack? Guess what? If your pastors, prophets, and apostles are telling you, "Peace and safety," and you are believing them, you aren't going to have a panic attack. Dead people don't have panic attacks. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The last time I checked my Bible, I read where we have all been made kings and priests unto our God. When was the last time you read your Bible? Don't you think it's about time you pick it up? You just might be in for a panic attack. Do you wonder why our nation, our churches, and Christians are in such a mess? Read your Bible. It's all there. But, the Good News is that not only does the Word of God show you the mess, it shows you the way out. The king of Judah became very radical. Today, you might call him an extremist. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I am not calling for another "Christian" President. I think we can all see where that has gone. But, what we do need are some pew sitters who will get off their backsides, read their Bibles, search the Scriptures, and get right and radical with God. When that happens, look out! AND, it will happen! Unfortunately, for some, it will have to happen through dire judgments that ARE coming. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I am not the only person warning of these coming judgments, by the way. But again, if you don't agree with what you read in the prophecies I post, feel free to judge or unfriend me. But, for those who might be interested, here is an example of a prophetic word of warning I was given for the state of Tennessee in January of this year. I saw in a vision a sword hanging over Nashville, Tennessee, in particular. I encouraged the intercessors to warn and to pray for the state of Tennessee as a whole, and Nashville in particular. For those of you who do believe what I am posting, you might want to pray for Tennessee. And, keep praying for our nation. Why?</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The Lord has spoken to me recently - and you are free to judge this - that the walls of protection that have governed our nation are going to come down ALL OVER OUR NATION like never before. There are going to be attacks of all kinds coming - from terrorists, murderers, weather-related events, famines, earthquakes, etc. - all because we have assumed that God was on our side, while we have continued to live in sin. Judah, the southern kingdom, thought that they were above judgment, while they failed to heed God's judgments on the northern kingdom of Israel, one of which was eventual captivity. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Brothers and Sisters, we have seen things happening in other countries, but we think we are exempt from judgment. Sadly, this message is even being preached in most pulpits across this nation. Fortunately, there are a few pastors who are willing to pay the price, who are willing to warn the flock of God, and call them to repentance, call them to get their houses in order. Revival is coming, but it will be in conjunction with end times events which, if you haven't noticed, are taking place right before our eyes. If you cannot see or hear, then ask the Lord to give you eyes that see and ears that hear. Now is the time to wake up. Now is the time of salvation. Do not put off until tomorrow what needs to be done today. Tomorrow will be too late!</div>

Last night (7/30/15), Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, author of The Harbinger and The Mystery of the Shemita, spoke at Church of His Presence in Daphne, Alabama. I cannot emphasize enough that if you did not get to hear him, please go to the archived messages of the church when the message is posted and listen to his warnings as well as his encouragement. If you are in a quandary about what is happening in our nation and where our nation is headed, you need to listen to what this man <span class="text_exposed_show">has to say.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show"></span><br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
Shortly, there will be Christian pastors and so-called apostles and prophets who will wish they had listened, who will wish they had warned their congregations of what is coming. But, it will be too late. The Bible prophets warned that in their day there was no help from pastor or prophet because they were too busy trying to figure out how to feed and take care of their own family. <br />
<br />
Right now, it is every man for himself. If you have sense enough, do your own Bible research, do your own study, listen to the warnings others are not giving. Listen for the sake of your family, your friends, your neighbors, and yes, even your enemies. You will be glad you did. This is not doom and gloom. <br />
<br />
I live in Florida. If a hurricane was coming, I would want to know. I would want the public officials to tell me so I could prepare. Well, there is a storm of judgment coming on the United States, and what is coming will be so overwhelming that our government programs will be useless because the disasters will be so widespread. This is the time to prepare. Be warned and prepare!</div>

On May 15th I had a dream in which the Lord spoke to me to send out a warning to the African-American community in Crestview, whether Christian or non-Christian, and tell them to store food. The Lord spoke to me in the dream that if people did the best they could, He would take care of the rest. <br />
<br />
Then, the Lord spoke to me to prepare 1000 pamphlets with the May 15th warning and with the word He gave me in 2008 regarding Crestview and Baker as cities of refuge. (I have spoken to the Crestview city council over a year ago about the need to prepare for an influx of refugees into Crestview and Baker). You can read all about this in the current pamphlet.<br />
<br />
If you would like to have some copies to distribute to your family, friends and neighbors, please feel free to contact me via FB. Some families have taken the pamphlet to read, but more need to be warned. If what the Lord is speaking to me about coming judgments on America is true, you will be glad you prepared. Remember that even in the days of the Exodus, the warnings of the coming judgments were sent out to Jew and Egyptian alike. When Pharaoh wouldn't listen, some of his own people finally decided to take matters into their own hands and run for cover! Their Egyptian government did not know what it was doing, other than getting them all killed! Well, what I am offering you is a cover!<br />
<br />
Again, if you are interested in getting some copies of the May 15th prophecy and the 2008 prophecy to give out to your friends and neighbors, please let me know. I will do everything I can to get you as many copies as you think you can give out. Take it from me: time is short, and the sooner people can prepare the better. God bless!</div>

<strong>There Is Going To Be One Crestview Pastor Who Will Have Hell To Pay If He Does Not Warn His Congregation about What Is Coming and Give Them Time To Prepare!</strong></div>

<br />
Recently, I gave a local Crestview pastor a copy of the pamphlet I wrote regarding storing food and a cd copy of a radio interview with Mena Grebbin on Rick Wiles radio program Mrs. Grebbin tells of a dream and an angelic visitation she had regarding storing food. If you haven't heard her interview, I would strongly encourage you to do so before it is too late. Anyway . . .<br />
<br />
Much to my surprise, I found out that the pastor has not shared this information with his congregation, and pretty much, the congregation is asleep as to the possibility that it might be a good idea to store food and water. Well, folks, here is what is going to happen. I am quoting from Jeremiah's book of Lamentations, chapter 1, verse 19: "I called for my lovers, but they deceived me: my priests and mine elders gave up the ghost in the city, while they sought their meat to relieve their souls."<br />
<br />
There is coming a famine in the land! And, both priests (your local pastors/apostles and so-called prophets) and the elders (the church board/"yes" men) are not going to be able to help you. Why? Because they will be dying in the streets while trying to find food to feed their own families! Is this doom and gloom? Well, not if you store food and water - enough for the next few months. Of course, you might want to store some for your pastors and elders. From the sounds of what Jeremiah said - you know, the doom and gloom prophet of his day - they are going to need it!<br />
<br />
By the way, this church pastor I mentioned above is all into revival. But, he needs to listen to what the Lord spoke to Pastor John Kilpatrick after 9/11. Brother John asked the Lord if revival was over for the United States. The Lord told him that it was NOT over. BUT, He said that the revival that was coming would be in conjunction with end times events. In case you don't know what those are, check out Matthew 24! <br />
<br />
Jesus was the Prophet who warned that in the last days there would be famines (He was such a doom and gloom-er!) In my Bible, I read where a prophet showed up at church one day and told the people a famine was coming. This happened in the early Church. You know what the Church did? PREPARED! They weren't out there praying in tongues, binding the devil, and singing "I'll Fly Away"! They were preparing. <br />
<br />
Most of us who are urging people to prepare are being told that we don't have faith if we prepare or that we are moving in fear! Our accusers need to read Hebrews 11:7. Of course, if you want to go ahead and believe our accusers, if you are going to depend on your pastors, prophets and elders, good luck! You are going to need it. <br />
<br />
Folks, it's time for you to read your own Bible and make your own decisions for the sake of your family, friends, neighbors, and even your enemies. Go ahead and accuse me of anarchy in the church! I don't care. For the pastor who does not warn his church to prepare, for the church member who sits in the pew and lets the pastor tell him what is right and wrong, here is my warning. You will be listening to the screams of your congregation and your fellow church members as they perish along with you in the streets of your local city (Lamentations 1:19). Read that Scripture again if you dare! In fact, take the time to read the whole book of Lamentations today. It just might be the wakeup call you need!lgrecu6http://www.blogger.com/profile/12339354142739263444noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631647463934566636.post-43786370010950347752015-07-31T12:36:00.000-07:002015-07-31T13:11:49.733-07:00BEACH TRIP 2015: FIVE PROPHETIC WARNINGS<span lang=""></span><br />

<strong>The First Warning: </strong></div>
<strong>
</strong><br />
<div align="CENTER">
<strong>Don't Leave Me Behind When You Go on Your Vacation! - GOD</strong></div>
</span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
When my wife and I were traveling to Seagrove Beach, Florida, for our week-long family vacation, my mind was in another place. It was not on the fun, food, and fellowship we were going to have - even though I knew we would have a relaxing time. Instead, my mind was on a warning that the Lord had given to our family through a dream that Connie had had a few weeks before our vacation started.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The warning was basic, serious, and scary. To paraphrase, the Lord said, "You can go on your vacation, but just don't forget Me! If you forget Me and let your guard down, you will be in serious trouble. If you forget Me, you will not be prepared for what is coming. You will be caught completely off guard!" So, needless to say, I went on vacation determined that I was going to be tuned in to the Spirit of God no matter what. I was not going to let myself be distracted.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
It was not too long into our vacation that the Lord began to speak. </div>

<strong>The Second Warning: A Question about the Book of Jude</strong></div>

</div>

<strong>Larry Grecu</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
</span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
As we were stuck in traffic waiting to cross the Destin Bridge, the Lord showed up. He began by asking me a question. "Why do you think that I allowed the book of Jude to be put in the Bible right before the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ?" Knowing that His answer would be better than mine, I just sat and listened. He said, "It is there because you are going to see the acts of the apostates happening right before I begin judging the Church and the world."<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
When I heard the words, "acts of the apostates," I immediately thought of a book I had bought several years ago entitled, <i>Jude - The Acts of the Apostates, </i>by S. Maxwell Coder<i>. </i>I highly recommend this book, as it goes into detail about what apostasy looks like, both corporately and individually. And, you will be surprised to see just who is involved in the apostasy! It's like reading today's headlines! Folks, if you are unsure that we are living in the time of the great falling away spoken of in II Thessalonians 2:3, then you need to read this book. It is definitely a wakeup call - a siren going off, an alarm shouting, "Urgent! Urgent! Read this message before it is too late!"<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Because traffic continued moving slowly, I asked Connie if she would open her Bible and read me the whole book of Jude (all 25 verses). As she was reading, I thought to myself, "O, dear God, we ARE in the time of the apostates! You are warning me (us) that we are not only in the time of the apostates, but also in the approaching time of the manifestation of the man of sin and Your judgment(s)!" What a warning! <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
How could I have been so blind, though, not to have seen this? I knew things were bad; I knew things appeared to be going downhill morally at an ever-increasing rate of speed. But, I had never really thought of the book of Jude and its message of apostasy in relation to the book of Revelation. I had never really thought of the SMALL book of Jude as a VERY BIG warning to us of just where we are on God's countdown to judgment. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
My mind was reeling from what the Lord was speaking, but again, I was thankful. I knew God was giving me a weapon that would keep me awake and alert on this vacation! Of course, God wasn't through speaking yet.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

As I walked into the beach house which would be our vacation house for a week, I had a haunting, frightening reminder going through my mind, a reminder that the Lord had given to my wife in a dream before we took our two summer vacations, one to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, and the other to Seagrove Beach, Florida.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
In my wife's dream, the Lord spoke to her that He was going to allow us to go on vacation, but it was to be a time where we could not forget Him. A time where we could not relax to the point of turning off His voice of warnings. A time where we could not be put back to sleep by the enemy of our souls, the enemy who is out to steal, kill and destroy.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
So, needless to say, I had my spiritual antennae up <b>the whole time</b>, not wanting to miss anything the Lord had to say. I do not want you to think that my week was nothing but doom and gloom. We did have fun with the family. But, I thank God that I have children who know the importance of serving the Lord 24/7, even if you are at the beach! I thank God that I have children who do not think it strange when I come up with some of the warnings the Lord has given to me, but seriously take them to heart.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
We were hardly a couple of hours into our beach stay when I asked the following simple question, "What is the password to the free Wi-Fi?" The response was not quite what I was expecting. I actually felt nauseous when I got my answer - nauseous to the point of telling everyone to pack their bags because we were getting out of there, and fast. What was this curious password? Well, when I tell you, it probably won't mean anything to you. However, if you will be patient, I will explain to you why it was very meaningful to me, and why it is a warning of something coming, a warning we cannot fail to heed. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The response to my Wi-Fi question? "13beach13."<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
A feeling of shock came over me. Only the Lord could have known how to get my attention in such a specific way. You see, on another family vacation to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, in June 2012, the Lord had given me a message involving the number 13. And, here's the background. (If you live in or around Pensacola, Florida, you will want to pay special attention!)<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
While on this 2012 vacation, our daughter, Cindy, came into our room and told my wife and me that the city of Pensacola had been hit with a torrential flood. We quickly turned on the TV to the Weather Channel to get the details. According to one report, the airport had recorded that the rainfall amount was 13.13 inches within a few hours. When I heard this number, the Lord immediately spoke to me and said, "Read Genesis 13:13."<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I had no idea what Genesis 13:13 said, nor did I even have any idea if there were thirteen verses in Genesis 13. But, I was in for a big surprise. Here is what Genesis 13:13 says: "But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly." Now, why would God point out that verse, and only that verse, regarding the torrential downpour in Pensacola, Florida? Here's why. For the first time in its history, the Pensacola LGBT community had received support from a sitting politician, none other than Pensacola Mayor Ashton J. Hayward, III.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
On June 1, 2012, eight days before <b>the flood</b>, the Mayor of the city of Pensacola issued a proclamation proclaiming "June 10-17, 2012, as PENSACOLA PRIDE FESTIVAL WEEK in the city of Pensacola and urge(d) all citizens to recognize and celebrate diversity, humanity and equal rights for our entire community. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the City of Pensacola to be affixed this 1st day of June, 2012." (I would highly recommend that you go on the Internet and read the entire proclamation of the Honorable Mayor). Remember! This was in 2012, and we all know what has happened in our country since then.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
For those of you who may not have read your Bibles lately, I may need to give you a little lesson here. According to the Bible, when the head of a government acts on behalf of a city or nation, whether for good or bad, it has an effect on the entire population, whether for good or bad! Back in 2012, the Honorable Mayor of the city of Pensacola, Ashton J. Hayward, III, decided to violate the Word of God and make a proclamation on behalf of the LGBT community in support of what God calls an abomination. Therefore, he left God no choice but to give Mr. Hayward and the city of Pensacola a wakeup call. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
We all know that now in 2015, the Supreme Court and the President of the United States have fully endorsed the redefining of marriage. They have told us that marriage is no longer a covenant between one man and one woman. By law, our government has proclaimed that marriage can be a covenant between two men and two women as well. In other words, our Supreme Court and our President, Barack Hussein Obama, II - just like the Honorable Mayor of the city of Pensacola - have endorsed what God calls an abomination. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Well, I have told you what I believe - what I know - was God's reaction to the Honorable Mayor's endorsement of Gay Pride Festival Week, June 10-17, 2012, in Pensacola, Florida. I know that if God judged the city of Pensacola with a warning, He will judge our nation from north to south and from east to west with a warning for allowing this abomination. God is no respecter of persons, cities or nations. He is righteous in His judgments. So, what can we expect from a warning such as "13beach13"? <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Here is what the Lord spoke to me.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
There is coming a judgment along the beach areas of the United States. It will signal God's displeasure with our nation's decrees against His Word regarding homosexual marriage. This will be a limited judgment. The Lord spoke to me that the numbers 13 on each side of the word "beach" set the boundaries for His judgment. In other words, just as Abraham was able to view the effects of the catastrophic destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, so also will people see the destruction God is bringing, but not be affected by it. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Folks, I wish I had good news to report, but I don't. If our nation continues to defy God, catastrophic judgments are inevitable. God is no respecter of persons. The only Good News I have is that if our nation repents, God will repent of the judgments that are coming. God is not willing that any perish. However, we have a choice as a nation. Like Nineveh in the book of the prophet Jonah, we can repent or suffer the consequences. We can believe the prophets and prosper, or we can ignore the warnings and face what I believe is imminent destruction. We must quit ignoring the prophets and begin believing that what they are warning us of is true. It is that simple. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I hear a lot of people crying out to God for His mercy on our country. Listen up!God IS having mercy on our country simply by warning us. We cannot continue spurning the mercies of God! As the saying goes, the ball is now in our court(s). May we as a nation be willing to believe God and repent. Otherwise, there will be no turning back the judgment hand of Almighty God.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Believe it or not, the beach saga continues. What happened next was a frightening warning from God from three chapters in the Bible. Each chapter was from a separate book in the Bible, but all three chapters had something in common. They were all Chapter 18 in their respective books. A coincidence? I don't think so. If you are interested in finding out what the Lord is saying, read on. </div>

<strong>And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great <i>millstone,</i> and cast it into the sea, saying, "Thus with violence shall that great city Babyon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all" (Revelation 18:21).</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
</span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
As I sat at the beach house reading the above verse, something came over me. I sensed a warning from God of a coming catastrophic calamity that is going to hit the United States of America. Yes, I know that the verse speaks of Babylon. Actually, most of Revelation 18 deals with Babylon and God's judgment on it. However, there is something that has happened in our country, and in the city of Washington, D.C., in particular, that has caused our country to morph into what I would consider a modern-day Babylon. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The decision of the United States Supreme Court to legalize what the Bible calls an abomination - homosexual marriage - has put our country on the fast track to judgment. If you think gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgenders are going to stop at getting homosexual marriage legalized, think again. The descent into the reprobate mind will not stop with homosexual marriage. Next will come the legalization of pedophilia, and when this happens, watch out! God will answer with destruction unimaginable. How do I know this? <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
As I was reading Revelation 18:21, my eyes suddenly focused on one word in the verse: MILLSTONE! Sound familiar? Well, if you read your Bible, it should. There is another passage in the Bible that uses the word MILLSTONE, and it is found in <b>Matthew 18:6</b>. But, let me tell you verse five first: <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<b></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me (verse 5). BUT whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better that a <i><u>millstone</u></i> were hanged about his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea (verse 6).</b></div>
<b>
</b><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<b>
</b><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
How frightening this verse should be to anyone wanting to satisfy the lusts of their flesh through pedophilia! How frightening this verse should be to the nation that would even think of legalizing pedophilia! But, do you think that Washington, D. C., will care? Do you think that the wealthy homosexuals are going to stop with gay marriage? No! They will pay to have pedophilia legalized, and our politicians who lust for filthy lucre (on both sides of the aisle) will gladly bow the knee to the mental health gurus in our society who are ready to tell them that pedophilia is not a mental aberration but instead is a sexual preference on the same level as heterosexuality. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
So, watch out and be aware, Mom and Dad, when the day comes when your little Johnny or your little Susie comes home with the newly mandated, required public school curriculum forcing your child to be indoctrinated into homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, transgender, and pedophilia - all in the name of health and wellness! Most of this education is already occurring in California!<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Folks, unless the United States of America turns around, you can expect to see God completely abandon her to a reprobate mind. And, when the cup of iniquity is full, mark my word, catastrophic judgment will fall with all of its horrors and terrors. Be warned: God has a great millstone and a mighty angel ready to throw it into the sea, and the chief city in the United States, Washington, D. C., will be no more!</div>

<b>And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, "Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the Lord your God.

You shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: I am the Lord your God.

The above verses were found, as you can see, in Leviticus 18, the final chapter in the trilogy of chapters that began with the number 18. In Biblical numerology, the number 18 is the number of bondage. The children of Israel were in bondage to different nations several times, but the two greatest bondages occurred when the Israelites were in Egypt and Babylon. As our government continues to descend into darkness and takes on the characteristics of Egypt and Babylon, you can expect to see two things happen: the release of God's people from bondage, and judgment on our nation that will be comparable to the judgments that fell on Egypt and Babylon. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The final verses of Leviticus 18 should be a solemn warning to the United States of America, to the President, to the Supreme Court justices, to the members of Congress, and to each one of us individually. God warned the Israelities, and He is warning us today: <br />

In conclusion, let me tell you something that a friend of mine pointed out to me when I told him of this experience. The number 18, the number of bondage in the Bible, is the sum of three of the same number: 6 + 6 + 6. Do you think God is trying to warn us how close we are to the end, how close we are to having to make a choice between serving God or serving Baal? Think of this: three chapters, all three number 18, and then three times, 6 + 6 + 6. Coincidence? I don't think so. It is definitely time that we wake up and take heed.</div>

As our Beach Trip 2015 was reaching a conclusion, little did I know that God had one more message for me. Connie and I had left the beachhouse right before checkout, and I knew that the first thing that we had to do was to find a gas station, as I was almost running on fumes. Trying to find a gas station to pull into was very difficult that morning because it seemed that everyone was leaving the beach the same time we were. So, it was not until we were quite a ways down the road before we were able to stop for gas.<br />
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Of course, that was easier said than done. We had to go through the Santa Rosa Outlet Mall, find one of the exits from the mall that had a light, and then cross over a very crowded Highway 98 and pull into the Shell station. Then, there was the line we had to wait in. I kept thinking that I was going to have to roll to the gas pump if the delay was any longer. At last my turn came to pump gas. <br />
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I was just sitting there minding my own business, letting the pump do its thing. Fortunately, I was able to use the device on the handle of the pump so I did not have to hold the nozzle while the car was being filled. This seemed to take forever, but I should not have been surprised since I was definitely running on fumes. Finally, I heard the "click" of the handle, letting me know that the car was at last filled. Now, mind you, I was just letting the pump do its thing. (Look, Mom, no hands!) What I saw, though, when I looked up at the cost for the gas left me in a state of shock! This was something only God could have orchestrated. The final cost: $66.60. <br />
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
There it was again, 666. Folks, if you do not think we are in the time of the mark of the beast; if you do not think we are in the time when we will not be able to buy or sell unless we have the mark; if you do not think we are living in perilous times, then you better think again. I hope that you do not take lightly what I have written in this five-part warning. Jesus exhorted his disciples to watch and pray, and if ever there was a need to follow this admonition, now is the time. </div>

<span lang=""><strong>DREAM OF EARTHQUAKE IN CINCINNATI, OHIO</strong></span></div>

<strong>Dream of July 26, 2015</strong></div>

<div align="JUSTIFY">
On Sunday morning, July 26, 2015, I had a dream about an earthquake occurring in Cincinnati, Ohio. The earthquake occurred during the work day. I knew this because, in the dream, men were walking around in white shirts with ties, attire you would expect to find an office worker wearing. I knew that these men had fled the buildings they worked in as the earthquake hit. However, others were not so fortunate. From the collapsed buildings of the<em><strong> downtown</strong></em> area, there were many people screaming and crying out for help . </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I then saw these businessmen walking around the streets looking for some way to assist the people who were yelling for help, but they had nothing to work with. They had absolutely nothing! They kept looking for a way to help, equipment to use to move parts of buildings, but there was none! In fact, they even were looking for help from the government, but again there was <strong>NONE</strong> - absolutely no government assistance was coming to Cincinnati, Ohio! <strong>NONE!</strong> </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This was the warning I was given <i><strong>in the dream</strong></i>. I was told <i><strong>in the dream</strong> </i>that the United States government was not going to be able to help anyone in this disaster. Why? Because there were disasters happening all over the country <strong><em><u>at the same time</u></em></strong>, catastrophic events of <strong>ALL KINDS</strong> - not just earthquakes. The government agencies that people had depended on in the past were so overwhelmed and stretched to the breaking point that they could not send help to anyone in Cincinnati, Ohio. No help was coming from the government, absolutely <strong>NONE</strong>!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
So, what is the dream's warning, and what am I warning you about today? If you are not prepared for what is coming, you better wake up and prepare! Be prepared to help those who are going to need help. Do not be among those needing help. God is warning all of us: help is not going to come from our government. Help is not going to come from your unprepared coworkers. The time to prepare is <strong>NOW</strong>! Do not wait until it is too late. The Lord is saying through this dream, "You are not going to have anyone to help you when the disaster(s) hits!" </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Friends, if you do not know what to do, ask the Lord for wisdom. The Bible says that He gives wisdom to <strong>ALL</strong> men and doesn't criticize them for asking. He causes His sun to shine and His rain to fall on the just and the unjust alike. You don't have to be caught in the dark, not knowing what is happening or what to do! Seek the Lord while He may be found! <strong> NOW</strong> is the acceptable time! <strong>TOMORROW</strong> just may be too late!</div>

<br />
<div align="center">
To All My Facebook Friends Who Are Gay or Lesbian, or Have Children Who Are Gay or Lesbian</div>
I have friends on FB who are gay or lesbian. I also have friends who have children who are gay or lesbian. I have heard preachers who have said that overcoming the sin of homosexuality is impossible or almost impossible. How hopeless are statements like these! I am no longer a member of their group or church. Truthfully, these so-called preachers of the Gospel are NOT preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ, which offers hope to ALL sinners, of which I am the chief! Either the Gospel of Jesus Christ can do what no psychiatrist can do, what no sex change can do, or the Bible is a lie. Let God be true and every man a liar! <br />
<br />
Recently, I came across a book called Two of Me, by the late pastor David Wilkerson, of Time Square Church, New York City. Below is a section of the book (Chapter Two). If you are saved and are struggling with sin, no matter what your sin is, this book offers hope because it is the truth. If you are a homosexual or lesbian who thinks that there is no hope for you, this is for you. I have said over and over again that Jesus died for us, Jesus loved us (past tense) while we were without strength, while we were still sinners, while we were ungodly, while we were enemies of God. If you are waiting for God to accept you if you get your act together, get over it. <br />
<br />
How many of us Christians tried to get our act together before we were saved? It doesn't work that way. He will accept you just as you are; he will change you; you can be born again; He will forgive you! How many of us Christians, after we were saved, tried to please God in our own strength, and failed miserably? We actually found ourselves back in what we had left behind! Let's be honest! Is it a hopeless situation? The answer is NO! The problem is that most pastors and Christians DO NOT KNOW THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST! <br />
<br />
The gospel is what it says it is: the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes - Jew or Gentile. I think that most of you know that I firmly believe that judgment is coming on our country, the likes of which we could never imagine. Just remember, that though the judgment comes on the country, judgment by God is a personal issue. None of us wants to experience the wrath of God against sin. Is there hope in the midst of the warnings? Is there a way of escape? The answer is YES! I want you all to realize that there is still time to turn to God who has already turned to you. <br />
<br />
I don't care what sin you are bound to, Jesus loved you; Jesus died for you; Jesus will forgive you; Jesus will come and make His home in you; Jesus will give you His Holy Spirit to strengthen you when you are weak! He is awesome! In other words, He is everything He says He is! Everything I have ever needed, I have found in Him. The Good News is that God is no respecter of persons. What He has done for me, He can and will do for you! There is hope! <br />
<br />
How crazy is this hope? Here's how far God will take you. This is what God's Word says to believers (and you won't hear this in most churches): "Beloved, NOW we are the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be. But, we know that when He shall appear, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM, for we shall see Him as He is." This is how far God says He can take us, believe it or not! As for me and my house, we choose to believe this is exactly what God will do, and this is the hope and expectation that we are extending to every sinner and saint alike!<br />
<br />
Now, here is what David Wilkerson says:<br />
<br />
"I am at the place that I believe it is the uncharitable Christian, so harsh and unforgiving, who drives the sinner away from the redeeming power of Christ. The church often drives people with life-controlling problems to reckless abandon and despair by their phony, pious ferocity against their sin. Christians, who are themselves victims of all manner of temptations, often shut out the habituated by telling them they are hopeless cases. This judgmental attitude says to the sinner, "Keep going deeper into your sin! You are hopeless! The Bible condemns you, so give yourself over to your iniquity. You are already lost, so we won't waste our time trying to help you.<br />
<br />
"A young lesbian who attended one of my meetings told me of her difficulty with church people accepting her--even after her conversion to Christ.<br />
<br />
"I wish Christians would quit 'totem poling' sins and treat everybody alike. They tend to put homosexuals on the bottom when it comes to being concerned about them, and on top of the pole when it comes to judging them as hopeless.<br />
<br />
"I get tired of Christians accepting converted adulterers, prostitutes, alcoholics, masturbators, and then recoiling like vipers when homosexuals seek help. They seem on the verge of throwing up when they talk to me; they watch my every move; they eyeball and analyze me, looking for errors. They can't forget my past, as if Jesus came into this world to save everybody but homosexuals."<br />
<br />
"No wonder sin is driven underground. No wonder people with life-controlling habits tend to react violently. These troubled souls are degraded; scorn is heaped upon them by a church that wants nothing to do with "queers," "fagots," and "nellies." We have all become very adept at heaping scorn on those we consider hopeless sinners. The scorn and smirk of Christians is one of the greatest causes of injury to those who indulge in sensuality.<br />
<br />
"We stigmatize people with life-controlling problems. We take away their character by thinking of them as hopelessly hooked. We are so offended by their practices, we have made their sins so scandalous, we turn them into outcasts with no hope of return. We help to destroy their hunger for God by bringing down on them an avalanche of reproach and unforgiving wrath.<br />
<br />
If you rob a sinner of his character, if you take away his dignity, if you focus only on his failures, if you treat him as a non-person, if you shut off all his roads of retreat—he is driven to hardness. He becomes calloused and begins to fight back because that is all that is left for him. It is an easy step from hardness to violence. Humiliate the sinner, take away his sense of worth, and soon you will have driven him to total remorse. If there is no God in him to support him, he will lose all hope and finally give himself over to those who will accept him. Then he often uses that hostility as an excuse to remain in his sin.<br />
<br />
My compassion for hardened sinners has been sorely tried. I've seen gangs of leather-clad sadomasochists parading down Folsom Street in San Francisco, flaunting their perversion. They carry nail-studded belts, heavy chains, whips, and other such sadomasochist paraphernalia.<br />
Drag queens strut around, proud, thumbing their noses at straight society. I have had countless numbers of gays call me a fanatic and a fraud. They have cursed my honest efforts to help them—they have thrown my books into the gutter, jumping on them, reviling the author with torrents of cursing.<br />
<br />
It is then that horrible thoughts begin to surface in me. I think to myself, "God, they are hopeless. They don't want You; they don't want help. I'm wasting time. Maybe an earthquake is the only language they can understand. Why preach cure to proud people who won't even admit they need help?"<br />
<br />
But when I go down to the Tenderloin in San Francisco and talk to those who have hit rock bottom—stoned, bombed out, at the end of their hope—something beautiful happens. Sinners tend to get honest when desperate. The truth surfaces when the games are all over. The phoney fronts, the make-believe facades, all come tumbling down. And suddenly you find just another poor, lost sinner needing the love and compassion of Christ. They weep out pitiful confessions of being kicked around, abused, used, rejected, and misunderstood.<br />
<br />
I cannot explain the joy of seeing broken bodies and minds restored by the power of God. That is what draws some of us back time and again to the streets, willing to suffer abuse from the hardened Christ-rejectors. It may be only one out of a thousand who admits to a need or who hurts enough to want to change. But God will lead us to that one—and no power on earth or in Hell can hinder the Holy Spirit from zeroing in on that hungry heart to bring healing.<br />
<br />
Peter the apostle said, "God has shown me that I should call no man unfit or unclean" (Acts 10:28).<br />

Where are the prophets who are going to begin judging what prophets are prophesying? I came under fire a little over a year ago when I questioned a prophecy by Kim Clement regarding Pope Francis and the Roman Catholic Church, a prophecy that appeared on and was endorsed by Elijah List. I wrote a letter asking why our church was not addressing this; why our church was not warning people about the likes of Kenneth Copeland, James Robison, Ulf Eckman, and others who were forsaking Christianity and were substituting unity for the Truth by kissing up to the pope.<br />
<br />
I went to a meeting last July at another church and promised myself that if the ministries in the campmeeting did not address the abominations that were being committed by the above-mentioned ministries, I would never darken the door of that church again, and they would never have my support! Thank God, the pastor was not and is not a coward like the some of the cowards in our pulpits who are afraid to offend people with the Truth! In fact, I thought I was fired up about what was going on, but when this pastor spoke I felt like a matchstick compared to him!<br />
<br />
In that meeting, the pastor warned of the danger of the overtures made to Protestants by the Pope through Bishop Tony Palmer. This so-called bishop had the gall to say that the "protest" was now over, that we could all be brothers again. Well, within days, Bishop Tony Palmer, friend of Pope Francis I, was dead! <br />
<br />
Earlier, I had literally transcribed the question and answer session word for word between Bishop Tony Palmer and James Robisons' son, an interview that was filled with double-talk and lies of compromise. The death of Tony Palmer should be a solemn warning to Christians, to prophets who are prophesying things out of their own hearts, and to false prophets. Christians, you have a responsibility to search the Scriptures to see if what ministries are telling you lines up with the Word of God.<br />
<br />
Don't let ANY ministry accuse you of being a Jezebel because you question what they are saying! I questioned statements by two ministries a couple of years ago and got blasted. Ask me if I care. If it costs me fellowship with them, so be it. I want to remain in fellowship with Almighty God and His Word. As Christians, we are called to worship God in spirit AND IN TRUTH.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, I have seen too many charismatics and those associated with apostolic movements dumping the Truth for the latest prophetic word from some celebrity prophet or pastor. Don't be deceived, and above all don't fail to search the Scriptures to see if what you are being told is Truth! God will hold you accountable. If you are too lazy to study your Bible or too scared of what man thinks of you, you better get over it in a hurry! Judgment is coming to the House of God.lgrecu6http://www.blogger.com/profile/12339354142739263444noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631647463934566636.post-65608668452387715612015-07-03T10:17:00.000-07:002015-07-03T10:17:21.243-07:00What Will You Do When the Applause Dies Down and the Fire Gets Seven Times Hotter?<div style="text-align: center;">

If the shoe fits, wear it! If it doesn't, then you will probably know where I am coming from. Several years ago, when our children were in school here in Okaloosa County, I had an incident which the Lord used to shake me to my foundation. It was also used by the Lord to shape me and mold me, even though I have to admit, that at one point, I personally did not care if I ever remained a Christian or not. Thank God, the Lord kept dealing with me and using all of these experiences to bring me into a stronger Christian experience today.<br />
<br />
What I faced in the public school system in Okaloosa County is coming back around, and I want to give teachers, administrators, and the superintendent - both Christians and non-Christians - some idea of what you are going to face and what you better be willing to do this time around.<br />
One day I was sent a letter from the school system that an invitation was being sent to the parents to view a video dealing with sex education in one of the classes. If a parent felt that his or her child should be excluded from the presentation, then that would be allowed. I decided to go view the film. When I went, the principal of the school was quite surprised. I was only one of two parents who wanted to view the film. Nothing had been set up - no projector, no place, etc. The school was totally unprepared for the visit. That should tell you how unconcerned some parents are about what their children are learning! And, by the way, Parents, you will be held accountable to almighty God!<br />
<br />
I ended up in some hole in the wall in the library, but I did view the film. I won't go into detail of what the film "taught." It was not something I wanted my fourth grade student to be taught by the public school for sure. Anyway, a short time later, the superintendent held a public meeting for PARENTS at the school where my children were attending. During that meeting, parents were allowed to express any of their concerns about the way the school was being operated. I was one of the parents who spoke. I let the superintendent know that in know uncertain terms was I going to let the system teach my child sex education, especially when it came to issues that could lead to fornication or homosexuality. <br />
<br />
There was a big round of applause from parents who were just as concerned as I was. BUT, when push came to shove, when the applause died down, when the fire got hotter, I found that the superintendent as well as most parents did not have the spiritual guts to stand. The superintendent claimed to be a Christian, but when the fire got hotter, her political career mattered more to her than her beliefs. She did not last long as a superintendent. But, I was no better than any of the above. My dependency was not on the Lord. The shaking that came caused me to throw in the towel on Christianity and just say to hell with it all. I really didn't even care if I went to Hell - and I knew there is a Hell!<br />
<br />
Within a few days of my speech, my principal called me to his office. On the way to his office, the Lord spoke to me and told me not to worry about what to say. He would give me the words to speak to the principal. The principal told me that he had heard about my speech and that if I wanted to keep my job and be hired on the following year, I had better keep my mouth shut. What happened next shocked even me. I couldn't believe what came out of my mouth. I looked him straight in the eye and said, "Sir, I do not care if you take my job. My children are more important to me than this job."<br />
<br />
Well, he made sure that I was not rehired, and of course, when the superintendent was informed of what had happened, she did nothing. Within a year, my whole world collapsed. I couldn't get a job in the school system, and eventually I left the area to find work while my wife and children stayed in Baker. I did have one woman call me and tell me that she supported what I had shared in the parents meeting with the superintendent, but she couldn't speak out because her husband's job would be in jeopardy if she did. I thanked her for at least calling.<br />
<br />
As I am writing this, I could almost cry. Why? Because when the fire got hotter, I couldn't stand. Like Peter the apostle, I thought I could stand for the Lord. The truth that I couldn't was something I needed to learn, especially when the trial was very long. But, there is good news! The Lord is going to give all of us a second chance. The fire is getting ready to get seven times hotter. <br />
I have shared before that the Lord gave me a dream in which the teachers, administrators, and workers in the public school system of Okaloosa County - Christian and non-Christian - will soon be forced to sign a document endorsing the teaching of homosexuality, gender identity, bi-sexuality, etc. This dream came BEFORE the Supreme Court ruling on homosexual marriage, otherwise known as same-sex marriage. God is faithful to warn ahead of time.<br />
<br />
In the dream, there were Christian and non-Christian teachers alike who refused to sign the document. As a result, they lost their jobs, their homes, their health insurance, their retirement, and their transportation. It was then that Christians opened their homes to these people who were willing to pay the price for the Truth.<br /> <br />Back in the day of my trial, even close kin told me, "You should have kept your mouth shut. Look at all you have lost, and look what your family is suffering!" Those kin are dead now and have gone on to their judgment. We are still living and still have an opportunity to be like the three Hebrew children who would not bow the knee and worship the king's statue. There are teachers, administrators, and workers in our school system who are ready to pay the price. Let us pray that we as their fellow sufferers will not fail them in their time of need but will remember those who are suffering for their faith.<br />
<br />
May God give us all the grace to stand in this soon-coming trial. May we be among those Christians who not only applaud what our fellow Christians and non-Christians are standing for, but also provide for them when they are in need. The time for the Church to pull together is at hand. All of our lives depend on it. There is an evil Haman system that has invaded our land, and if we do not hang together, we will all hang alone. (See the book of Esther if you don't know what I mean!)<br />
<br />
Little children in the Middle East and in other nations are refusing to deny their faith in Jesus Christ and are being beheaded, crucified, buried alive, imprisoned and tortured. The same is happening with teenagers, and adults, young and old. Are we willing to pay the price and receive the applause of Heaven, or do we instead want the applause of man? Let us all examine ourselves to see whether we are in the faith. He will give us the grace to stand!<br />

<br />
A few years ago, the mayor of Pensacola, Florida, issued a proclamation in recognition of Gay Pride Week. Before the big celebration could take place, Pensacola was hit with torrential rains that dumped 13.13 inches of rain over the city. This amount was measured at the airport in Pensacola. I was in Pigeon Forge, TN, during that time. My daughter, Cindy, ran into our bedroom and told us what was happening. When she did, the Lord spoke to me and said, "Read Genesis 13:13." Well, here we go again. I didn't know what this verse was about at all! BUT, when I read it, it scared me to think what the Lord was saying.<br />
<br />
Here is what Genesis 13:13 says: "But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly." <br />
<br />
Some time after this incident, I was invited to speak on a local radio program in Baker, Florida, about the prophetic word the Lord gave me in 2008 regarding Baker and Crestview, Florida. I mentioned about the Genesis 13:13 incident and how the Lord had tied these words into the torrential rains that hit Pensacola, Florida, as a sign of His displeasure and judgment. <br />
<br />
A man was listening to the program, and when he heard what I said about 13.13, he thought I was making a big deal over nothing. However, the Lord was faithful to give this man a serious wakeup call. The man and his wife were going to celebrate, I believe, their 25th wedding anniversary in Hawaii. While he was flying over on the plane, he kept thinking to himself, "What's the big deal about 13.13." It just kept bugging him. Well, he and his wife got to the hotel in Hawaii, and much to this man's amazement, the hotel put them up on the 13th floor! It got even more bizarre when they were handed the room key to - you guessed it - Room 1313. <br />
<br />
When this man told me the story, I was in amazement at God's confirmation. Actually, I can't explain to you what was going through my mind. I guess just total shock! BUT, this is not all the story. While they were "vacationing" at the hotel, the tsunami warning sirens went off, and all the hotel guests had to evacuate the hotel and flee to higher ground! God does have a sense of humor, although this is, unfortunately, a dead serious warning to our President and to our nation.<br />
<br />
Mr. President, if you think that God is not watching what is going on, you are dead wrong. He is watching your every move. Fellow Americans, you can sing and dance in the streets, celebrating your <a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/love?source=feed_text&story_id=835853656470173"><span aria-label="hashtag" class="_58cl">#</span><span class="_58cm">love</span></a> wins until you are blue in the face, but God is watching. Something is going to happen that is going to confirm what I am writing. God is watching and God is going to show up. Your celebration will be turned into terror, and your blasphemy against Almighty God will be met with fiery judgment. <br />
<br />
God will not be mocked! You have sown the seeds of your own destruction, and you will reap the whirlwinds of judgment.lgrecu6http://www.blogger.com/profile/12339354142739263444noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631647463934566636.post-50757969456550883762015-06-27T12:04:00.003-07:002015-06-27T12:04:38.121-07:00<div style="text-align: center;">
WHAT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT GOD'S AMAZING GRACE!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
When the President of the United States has the gall to stand in the pulpit of a so-called Christian church in the United States of America and sing Amazing Grace, it is time for Christians to speak up and out. How could he, as a so-called Christian, glorify the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage, and then go into a Christian church singing about God's amazing grace? About the only thing the President sang that was truth is that he is a wretched man, just as Paul the Apostle stated how wretched a man he was. For the President to sing a song that proclaims that he is saved is a great deception. Why? Because there is a difference between the President's and apostle Paul's understanding of grace. <br />
<br />
This is what the Bible says and what apostle Paul wrote about God's truly amazing grace: "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior 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 you (Titus 2:11-15).<br />
<br />
This is what Paul said about the operation of the grace of God in his own life: "And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinner; of whom I am chief" (I Timothy 1:12-14).<br />
<br />
The President can claim all he wants to - and even have the backing of so-called Christian ministers - that he is a Christian. They can join with him in the singing of Amazing Grace. But, most of them are nothing more than accomplices in the President's own deception. They are parasites eating at the President's table just as the false prophets did in the days of Ahab and Jezebel. God forbid that they would bite the hand that feeds them. Here is what the Bible says about true followers of God, which of course, the President is NOT:<br />
<br />
"Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children: And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savor. But fornication, and ALL uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be ONCE named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. BE NOT YE THEREFORE PARTAKERS WITH THEM" (Ephesians 5:1-7).<br />
<br />
If you think that our President is a Christian leader, you are dead wrong! He is a leader, but the destination for himself and all of his followers, especially those who think he is a Christian (ministers included), is hell and eternal damnation. What he and the judges of the Supreme Court have done will soon turn our nation into hell and bring upon us the wrath of God! May the Lord remember mercy in the midst of judgment!lgrecu6http://www.blogger.com/profile/12339354142739263444noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631647463934566636.post-51348893314203661542015-06-27T05:57:00.000-07:002015-06-27T05:57:00.700-07:00The Suicide Note from the Young Gay Man Said, "I Wish I Could Have Been Born Again!"<span lang=""><div style="text-align: center;">

<div align="JUSTIFY">
Dedication: Recently, I read an article about a young gay man who committed suicide. I was deeply touched by one of the closing comments this young man made. He actually said, "I wish I could have been born again!" I did not know this young man. I did not have any contact with him. It grieves me that there was no one that he could turn to who could tell him, "You can be born again!" And so, I dedicate this article to the memory of this young man. I do not want his death to be in vain. I pray that all of you will take the time to read this article, especially if you think you cannot be born again and that the only way out is suicide. As you read on, you will discover that this article is not only for the LGBT people. It is for all of us. For the sake of the young man mentioned above, please read on.</div>
<br />
<div align="center">
* * * * * * * * * * * * *</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
I am posting these comments with the hope that anyone caught in the lifestyle of homosexuality, or any other sin for that matter, will at least take the time to read this and think about what I am saying. We are living in a generation where most of the young people in the United States, as well as their parents, have never read the Bible or think that it has anything to say to our 21st Century society. But, at least hear me out.<br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Romans 1 is not the only chapter in the Bible where Paul the apostle wrote about homosexuals. I know that if you are gay, most of the time this is the only chapter from the Bible you may hear from some Christians. But I want to give you another reference that you may not be aware of. It is found in I Corinthians 6:9-10. It says, "Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Don't be deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingodm of God." </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This is quite a long list that seems to cover a multitude of sins. BUT, if you read on, this is what Paul says to the Corinthian <i>church members</i>: "And such WERE some of you: but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." The Bible says that all of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Jesus has provided a way out of all of the lifestyles mentioned above. He is the way and the only way out.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The next time you go to a church, think about this: that church is filled with people who WERE all of the above. When we accept Christ's sacrifice for our sins, He makes us a new creation. All things become new, and old things are passed away. Sure, there are some Christians who have fallen back into the old life. But, believe me, God is well able to get them back on track through some real chastening. He is faithful Father!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
But, bottom line, the fact that some Christians may and do fall does not change the truth of God's Word. You can be born again! You can be changed from a fornicator, idolater, adulterer, a homosexual, an abuser of oneself with mankind, a thief, a person who covets, a drunkard, a reviler, an extortioner. You can inherit the kingdom of God. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I want you to notice that all of the people mentioned above are described as "the unrighteous." The Bible does tell us in Romans 1 that the way out of these unrighteous lives is through the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the first part of which is that Jesus died for us, died for our sins, while we were without strength to change ourselves, while we were ungodly, while we were sinners, and while we were enemies of God. That is why we can sing, "What a friend we have in Jesus." </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I always get upset when I hear people say to others, "Jesus loves you." He does love you. But there is something better that you should know as a sinner! "Jesus LOVED you." He loved YOU even as a sinner! Before I was saved, I used to think to myself, "I have done some awful things. I just can't believe that God would forgive me." I had never been taught that Jesus had already proven His love for me. He had already stepped into my place of judgment and died in my place! I could hardly believe this good news. But, it was true, and now I am part of a new creation and am being changed from glory to glory until, when He appears, I will be like Him for I shall see Him as He is. Friend, this can be your life too! God loved you (past tense) while you were yet His enemy. It can't get much worse than that on your part or much better on God's part. He wants none of us to perish.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Again, while you were yet a sinner, unable to change or save yourself, while you were His enemy - actually an enemy of God - God Himself sent Jesus to die for you - no matter which one of the sinful lifestyles above you are in. I hope you hear what I am saying. When Paul wrote the book of Romans, there was till time to change. Right now, there is still time to change. But, Paul warned ALL the above-mentioned sinners that there would be a day coming when there would be no more opportunity for change. There would be a day of wrath coming when God would judge all unrighteousness. So, what made the Good News so attractive to the former sinners in the Corinthian church? The promise of true change! </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
How much did the Corinthian sinners change? Yes, I know that if you read the first letter of Paul to the Corinthians, some of them were pretty messed up. BUT, I want you to read what else was going on. Some of these former sinners, now saints, were moving in the power of God. When they were changed, God actually gave them His power. They were speaking in tongues, prophesying, performing miracles, signs, and wonders. Healings were taking place as former sinners prayed for the sick. They were moving in great faith. They were hearing from God and were moving in the word of knowledge when a particular thing was revealed from God. They were moving in wisdom when there appeared to be no way out of a situation. In other words, they were CHANGED and were themselves becoming agents of change. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
It was that kind of change that I witnessed in the 1970s. I started seeing many of my former classmates and friends, whom I knew had been pretty messed up, changed! I couldn't believe my eyes. But, what I saw put such a hunger in my heart for real change, I was not going to rest until I had whatever they had. And now, I have lived with the ultimate Change Agent, Jesus Christ, in my life for over 40 years. My life has never been the same!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
So, Friend, here are my final comments. If you think that you do not fit into any of the above-mentioned sinner categories, then my message is not for you. But, if you know that you are one of the above sinners, then there is Good News for you. Christ did die for YOU. Christ did suffer the judgment for you. When you confess your sin, Jesus Christ is faithful and just to forgive you your sin and cleanse you from all unrighteousness - just like he did for all those Corinthian sinners, now saints, and just like he did for me. Before you think there is no hope, please think again. Read over what I have written and ask God for His help. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you. He will never turn you away when you come to Him for help. I can honestly say that He has never forsaken me - ever! </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I am no different than you. I once was blind, but now I see, was lost, but now I am found. This can be your life too. There is still time to be truly changed!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">

Just Some of My Views of What Will Happen as a Result of Today's Supreme Court Decision in Favor of Same-Sex Marriage</div>

Jesus Himself warned us that one of the signs of His second coming is that it would be "as in the days of Lot." Those of you who may not be familiar with the name Lot are probably more familiar with the names Sodom and Gomorrah. What we are witnessing in our country is the fulfillment of Romans 1 judgment: the abandonment of God upon a people. The people wanted another god rather than the One, True God, so God gave them up to their lusts, the final result being giving people over to homosexuality. For all of you who think that it ends there, do not be fooled. God gave people up to the fullness of iniquity (see the last few verses of Romans 1). This IS coming to our nation. <br />
Another thing you will shortly see is the exodus of the righteous out of cities that will be coming under judgment! Jesus said that it would be "as in the days of Lot," not me. Angels were sent to Lot's home, to Lot's family, to warn him of coming judgment on Sodom, Gomorrah, and the surrounding cities. There was a place of refuge, and there will be places of refuge for those who have the ears to hear and the eyes to see what is happening. <br />
<br />
I could go on and on warning of things that are coming to Christians and non-Christians alike, to those who believe that marriage is and should be between one man and one woman. I could go on and on with what is coming to the children of those who uphold the Word of God. The Lord has given me dreams, visions, and revelations straight from the Word of God regarding what is coming, and I can guarantee you that it will not be pretty.<br />
<br />
I just listened to President Obama's speech hailing the decision of the Supreme Court, and it made me sick, especially some of the innuendoes of what is coming to our children and grandchildren. You had better face the fact that the public school system will be used to educate children in the ways of homosexuality and lesbianism and worse! I have warned about this in the past, and it is soon going to happen right before our eyes. Christian and non-Christian teachers and administrators will be forced out of the public school system throughout the US because they will not bow the knee to Baal.<br />
Our country has been brought into the deception perpetrated by the false prophet spirit of Balaam. Balaam could not curse what God had blessed, but he knew what would bring God's judgment. Do not think that our President, in spite of all his haughty words, does not know what he is doing. He is not deceived! He knows what will bring God's judgment on our nation. He is no dummy. He, like Balaam, knows that sexual sin will bring judgment, judgment the likes of which we have never seen before! <br />
<br />
Folks, if your life is not right with Christ, you better get right with God! The judgments that are coming to this nation are going to be beyond anything you could think or imagine. If you have seen the movie "San Andreas," I can tell you that some of the things the Lord has shown me regarding coming judgments make this movie pale in comparison. All I can say is that you better get right with God, get your house in order, and above all, REPENT! Judgment will begin and has begun at the House of God, and then it will spread out to the nation. God will not be mocked! <br />
<br />
I pray that God will enlighten your hearts and give you understanding before it is too late! <br /> Your brother in Jesus Christ,<br />

My Thoughts on the Charleston Church Massacre<br />Larry Grecu, Baker, Florida<br />June 24, 2015</div>
<br />
In a few hours, it will be a week since the murders of nine members of Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. I was struck by a statement made by the governor of South Carolina when she said that Charleston, South Carolina, was known as the "Holy City." There are two things the Lord has laid on my heart regarding these events and this comment. All Christians should realize that the Lord is sending us a clear message, whether we like to believe this or not - especially since the message was sent in such a horrific manner.<br />
<br />
First, the very fact that Charleston is called the Holy City should make us pause! If we knew the history of the Holy City, Jerusalem, we would know that Jerusalem had walls to protect it from its enemies. But, what do we see? The walls of the Holy City are down when they should be up! The Church should be equipped, but we are not! Second, the Church has no discernment. We do not like the idea that God would bring judgment to our door, but we better learn from what has happened, or we will see a repeat of the events of last week!<br />
<br />
The murderer sat for one hour in the midst of nine members of the church. Nine in Biblical numerology is the number of blessing as well as judgment. The judgment question that we need to ask is, "Where was the discernment?" Are we as Christians supposed to be so open-minded and receptive that we lay discernment at the door of our churches when we walk in? I believe that one of the most important lessons that we need to learn from this tragedy is to pray for discernment. Even Jesus knew who his betrayer was! Even the disciples, Paul and Peter, knew when their time of departure was at hand. <br />
<br />
The walls of the American Church are down. We must repent and pray for the gifts of the Holy Spirit to become more and more operative in our midst like never before. Years ago, I was attending a revival in a nearby city. One day as I was praying, the Lord spoke to me that there was going to be an attack on the church where the revival was being held. I was to warn the pastor that there would be an attempted murder or some other kind of disaster coming, and the church authorities were to be warned to be on the lookout for anyone acting suspiciously. <br />
<br />
You can imagine my hesitancy to warn because of the gravity of what I was told. So, I asked the Lord for a confirmation. As I was praying, the Lord spoke to me and said, "Read Isaiah 56:10." I didn't even know if Isaiah 56 had ten verses, or if it did, what it said. However, when I read this verse, I decided that I was not going to be a fulfillment of what it said! So, I immediately sat down and wrote a letter containing the warning to the pastor. By the way, here is what the verse said: "His (Israel's) watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, THEY CANNOT BARK; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber."<br />
<br />
Within a week, a man walked into the church offices acting strangely. It immediately caught the attention of one of the staff members who called the police. The man was apprehended and taken away. I cannot remember if the man had a gun or not, but I believe that he was upset because of the effect the revival had had on his wife. Either way, I did not remain silent by keeping the warning to myself. Only time will tell if there were any warnings given in advance to the Mother Emanuel AME Church by the Lord, and if so, if they were ignored. In the meantime, I would encourage every pastor and every member of their congregations to pray for discernment. This is something God is focusing us in on, and we must take heed to the Lord's warning no matter how painful the loss of these nine precious lives has been. We must not let this warning be in vain. lgrecu6http://www.blogger.com/profile/12339354142739263444noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631647463934566636.post-67563679577632952692015-05-07T18:03:00.000-07:002015-05-07T18:03:13.475-07:00<span lang=""><div align="CENTER">

<span style="font-size: medium;"> </span> </span><div align="JUSTIFY">
<span style="font-size: medium;">On October 9, 1970, my grandmother, Ella Mae Bobe Smith, passed away at Sacred Heart Hospital, Pensacola, Florida. She was buried at Holy Cross Cemetery on October 12th, her birthday. Two weeks prior to "Nanny's" death, I was able to be at the hospital quite a bit, helping to take care of her in her final days. It was pretty overwhelming for me. I was very close to Nanny. I remember one day, after she had had a stroke, she began motioning to me to do something for her. I was praying and doing everything I could to understand what she was wanting, when it dawned on me that she was asking me to put her glasses on her so she could see us better. I cannot describe the joy I felt inside just to be able to help her.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I had never witnessed anyone dying, and it was painful to think that the first person I was ever going to witness dying was someone with whom I had such a close bond. I did my best to hold myself together, especially since I was and still am one of the older grandchildren. I don't think there was anyone who had a bad thing to say about Nanny. We all loved her. In fact, the funeral director said he had never seen as large a funeral procession in Pensacola as he saw that day for Nanny. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The funeral was held at St. Stephen's Catholic Church on Garden Street. This was Nanny and Papa's parish church and had been for years. The children's choir in which some of my cousins were members sang at the funeral. I remember as Nanny's casket was wheeled down the aisle, the children sang these words from Psalm 121, "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth." I had held myself together for as long as I could, when all the pent up emotions poured out of me as I ran out of the church sobbing.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I had been questioning over and over - without ever telling anyone - asking God just where Nanny was. Was she in Heaven? Was she in Purgatory? I just couldn't bring myself to believe that she was in Hell! If you are not a Catholic, you might not understand what I am talking about. You see, I was taught as a Catholic that unless you were some kind of super-saint, canonized by the Roman Catholic Church, most likely you were going to have to spend some time in Purgatory and not go straight to Heaven. And, of course, the only way out of Purgatory for you was the hope that enough Masses were said, rosaries prayed, and novenas attended by your surviving <strike>relatives</strike> and friends. (I had never really given it any thought as to when enough was enough - enough Masses, enough rosaries, and enough novenas). And, of course, I had never read the Bible to find out what God had to say about my worries.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
But, you know, God has a way of meeting us just where we are. Like I said, as the children's choir started singing, I just lost it. Sobbing, I ran out the side door of the church and down the sidewalk, in between the rectory and the church. As I was sobbing, this voice spoke to me within and said, "Do not fear, she is with me." I cannot describe what happened next or how fast it happened. All worry, all fear simply vanished. I walked back into St. Stephen's Catholic Church a changed man. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I knew that although Nanny's physical body was in the casket and would soon be in the ground at Holy Cross Cemetery, Nanny was with the Lord. There was no priest, no bishop, no cardinal, and definitely no pope who could convince me otherwise. It was settled. In fact, it was so settled that I never mourned another minute for Nanny. I knew where she was, and it wasn't in Purgatory or Hell. She was with God in Heaven.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
It was not until years later that I discovered some interesting details of an event that happened to my grandparents in the early years of their marriage. Part of Nanny's family was Baptist, and so both my grandparrents were around the Gospel message throughout their lives. When my grandparents were living in Meridian, Mississippi, where my mother was born, there was no Catholic Church for them to attend. And, because it was a command of the Roman Catholic Church to go to church on Sunday, they did a real no-no. They went to the local Baptist church. It was there that they heard the Gospel. I am sure that it was not the last time they heard the message. There were still plenty of Baptist relatives back in Pensacola who probably shared the Gospel over the years.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Anyway, whatever happened and whenever it happened, I knew that Nanny and Papa had both accepted the Lord as their Savior and found that the only satisfaction for their sins was the blood of Jesus Christ shed for them. While they were without strength, sinners, ungodly, and enemies, Jesus Christ died for them and, that having believed on Him, they received eternal life, never to be separated from Him in death. Later when I became a Christian, I read the words by apostle Paul, "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." I knew on the day of Nanny's funeral, she was with the Lord. Apparently, someone had forgotten to tell God about Purgatory. </div>
<span lang=""><div align="JUSTIFY">
</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
If you're a Catholic reading this, I hope that you really begin thinking about what you have been taught and about what you have believed. Recently, a man who was a Catholic in our area passed away. He was so tormented about going to Purgatory that he even asked a Baptist ladies' prayer group to pray for him to the Lord so he wouldn't have to be in Purgatory a long time. In fact, he begged them to not forget him. You may have to pay a stipend to have a Mass said for your dearly departed Catholic relative or friend, but I am going to give you some <b>free</b> information. Read your Bible, the very Word of God, and see what He has to say about Heaven and how to get there. Unless Paul the apostle - the one taught by the Lord Himself - was lying, the Word of God still stands, if you know the Lord: "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." Pax vobiscum! Amen!</div>

I don't think that there are too many Christians in the United States who cannot see the handwriting on the wall of our nation. And apparently, we are not short on prophets who are more than willing to translate what the nation's leaders cannot decipher, at least those who are not participating in the destruction of our country. Additionally, I don't think it is beyond any Christian's imagination that the persecution of Christians is not only taking place throughout the world, but also within our own country. While still in the minor stages for sure, and not as severe as in other countries, persecution is coming to the United States in a big way. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This is something that Paul the apostle warned the believers of his day: "For ye, brethren, became followers of God which in Judea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things <b>of your own countrymen</b>, even as they have of the Jews . . ." (I Thessalonians 2:14). Paul, as a faithful apostle, also told the Thessalonican church that he wanted "no man . . . moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto, For verily, when we were with you, we told you <b>before</b> that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know (I Thessalonians 3:3,4).</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This coming persecution will include both Christians and Jews. I include Jews in this persecution because I believe that while God has been using "fishers" to lure American Jews back to Israel, most have not taken the bait. So, the only alternative is that God will raise up the "hunters," forcing the Jews out of the United States one way or another (See Jeremiah 16:16). Time will tell if I am right, but it is quite evident that there is a rise in anti-Semitism throughout the world, and even in our own country. The hunters are rising!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This message, however, is actually more for Christians - praying Christians - who are praying for our nation and for a shift in the political influences governing it. Here is what I am getting at. Before the mass exodus of the Jews from Egypt, before there was a Pharoah governing Egypt who "knew not Joseph," the children of Israel were quite satisfied in their new Egyptian culture. They became so satisfied, in fact, that instead of staying in the land of Goshen, they filled the whole land of Egypt. God even increased His people greatly, and made them stronger than their enemies (Exodus 1:6-8; Psalm 105:24).</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
All of us would probably shout, "Amen! Hallelujah!" to any increase or multiplication received from the Lord. But, there are other things God did to and for the Israelis that may not necessarily line up with your theology. Psalm 105:25 reads, "He (God) turned their heart (the Egyptians') to hate his people (the Jews), to deal subtilly with his servants." What? You mean to tell me that God would do such a thing as that? Precisely. But, why? It was to get the Jewish people on the same prayer page with God. You see, God had a better plan for His people. He wanted to change governments completely. When the people got on the same prayer page with God, He heard their prayer and answered it.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Instead of looking for a new governmental regime to take over, God had two men he had prepared in secret, Moses and Aaron, the deliverers. If you look at the pattern in the book of Exodus, there was a new Pharoah who knew not Joseph; there was a change in how Egyptians viewed the Jews; there were increased taxes; there was increased, outright persecution; there was the murder of infants; there was a crying out to God by the Jews; and then, there was God's response with the deliverers. Does this sound familiar? Of course, all of this was followed by the judgment upon the whole country of Egypt. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
There are many people in our nation, Christians and non-Christians, who are looking for something better in and from our government. But, are we fighting against God in our endeavors to put the right person in the White House, when God Himself might be behind the developing problems of Christians in America, when God Himself might be trying to get the attention of Christians <b>throughout</b> the nation? </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
If we are honest, there are many Christians who cannot be distinguished from Egyptians nowadays, many Christians who have become enamored with Egypt and all the riches it has to offer. Maybe change is what we all need. It might not be the kind of change we would like, but I am sure it was not the kind of change the Jews liked either. However, the change God initiated brought the results He was looking for: one nation under God, crying out to Him for deliverance. The Church has not reached that place yet, but it is on its way. If Exodus 1 and Psalm 105 are two passages of Scripture we need to take note of, then, prophetically speaking, we should not be surprised if and when God allows the heat to be turned up seven times hotter. Selah! </div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>I. COUNTER-REFORMATION</b></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>
</b><div align="JUSTIFY">
Last week, as I was awaking, the Lord spoke to me and told me the following words: "Just as you had the word about the revival that came to Pensacola in the 1990s and it came to pass, I tell you now that there is coming another revival that will be a counterfeit revival. It is going to be a Counter-Reformation." When I had this experience, I knew that it was surely going to come to pass just as it came to pass in the days of the Reformation under Martin Luther. The Lord spoke to me that this coming Counter-Reformation will have lying signs and wonders that, if it were possible, would deceive the very elect. This Counter-Reformation is going to be led by the Pope and the Roman Catholic Church. One of the leading religious orders used during the Counter-Reformation was the Jesuits, also known as the Society of Jesus, the order that Pope Francis I is a member of. I would encourage all who read this paper to research the Counter-Reformation, the Jesuits, and the life of their founder, "Saint" Ignatius Loyola (1491-1556). You will be shocked to learn the person to whom the Jesuits pledge their allegiance, even to the point that they are willing to sacrifice their own judgment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<b><div style="text-align: center;">
II. THE WIND OF THE SPIRIT</div>
</b><div align="JUSTIFY">
Recently, there have been many words coming forth about wind or winds of change. Why should the Holy Spirit warn us about the wind or winds of change? In the 1960s, in the Roman Catholic Church, Pope John XXIII supposedly opened the Catholic Church to the wind of the Holy Spirit, an opening which had as its goal not only a move of the Holy Spirit, but also the goal of unifying all the churches of Christianity under the banner of the Roman Catholic Church in what has come to be known as the ecumenical movement. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The Lord spoke to me to be watchful and pray because the enemy is going to release his counterfeit wind to produce a move of the "spirit" that will deceive many in these last days. This counterfeit wind was released in the 1960s under Pope John XXIII, and it will be released again under Pope Francis I. How ironical is it that the current pope canonized or made "saints" of two of his recent predecessors, John XXIII and John Paul II. Remember, that to be canonized a saint in the Roman Catholic Church, two miracles are required, miracles received when someone has prayed to the person for a miracle. Why do I think the current pope canonized these two men? To validate their doctrines or teachings. Remember, the Roman Catholic Church has not stopped its Counter-Reformation.</div>
<br />
<b><div style="text-align: center;">
III. THE FOUNDATIONS</div>
</b><div align="JUSTIFY">
The recent winds in Pensacola, Florida, and surrounding cities, put many church foundations under water OR caused the foundations to give way. What is the Lord saying? During the Counter-Reformation, the Roman Catholic Church, through the Jesuits and other religious orders, was able to bring back many Germans into the fold or clutches of the Church. Why? Because many of the Christians were not grounded in the foundational doctrine of "the just shall live by faith." We are warned in the epistle to the Hebrews that we are called to be teachers ourselves of the doctrines of the apostles. But, how can we teach others what we ourselves do not know or understand? Therefore, I would encourage those who are called into the ministry to use the short time we are being given to re-check the foundation of your congregation! Do not be afraid to ask your congregation the hard questions. It is a matter of life and death. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Jesus warned that there would be a storm and winds that would try two houses, and that storm is coming. Why is it coming? To see if your house is built on the Rock or if it is built on the shifting sands. The Roman Catholic Church's house is built on the shifting sands, and it will fall in the time of judgment. That is why the Word of God says, "Come out of her, My people, that you be not partaker of her plagues." In other words, "Get in the right house!"</div>
<br />
<b><div style="text-align: center;">
IV. THE ARK OF THE COVENANT</div>
</b><div align="JUSTIFY">
A few days ago, I had a dream in which I saw four young boys in their early teens. Each of the boys was dressed in white garments that had a hood attached to them. They appeared like altar boys that you would see at a religious service in a Roman Catholic or Episcopal church. Each boy was carrying a pole that had a golden ball at the top of the pole. The ball was not solid but was made up of wide golden strands that were shaped like a globe. As the boys walked, they would twist the pole causing the ball or globe at the top to make a sound that was meant to inspire both awe and fear. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I then heard that these boys were going to get the Ark of the Covenant, and I saw them disappear around a corner. A few minutes later, these boys emerged carrying what I expected to be the Ark of the Covenant. They were also twisting the sticks to make the sound to put awe and fear in people's hearts. Much to my surprise, when I looked up, what I saw instead was a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary being carried. She was the Ark of he Covenant.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I do not think this dream needs much in the way of interpretation, although there are many significant things that can be gotten from this dream that I will not go into at this time. Those who are familiar with Roman Catholic doctrine should know that the Blessed Virgin Mary is being exalted above the Lord Jesus Christ as the "Mediatrix of All Graces." Again, I would encourage anyone reading this paper to do some research on the role that the Roman Catholic Church believes Mary has played in our salvation. She is actually prayed to in one of the Catholic litanies as Mary, Ark of the Covenant!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
In conclusion, I would strongly remind everyone that great deception is coming, deception that will include lying signs and wonders. There is coming a counter-reformation and a counter-revival that will pull people back under the influence and teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. This "church" is the synagogue of Satan, and it is headed up by antichrists, if not Antichrist himself. There is a way that seems right to a man, but the end thereof is death. It is time that we all examine ourselves to see if we are in the true faith.</div>

Last year, while I was staying with my mother who was recuperating from cancer surgery, I read a book entitled <b>One Second After</b>, by William R. Forstchen. The book tells the fictional story of the loss of a war by the United States. The cause of the loss: an electromagnetic pulse bomb, which pretty much puts the US back into the Dark Ages. The unimaginable and unthinkable results of this attack are graphically portrayed in the novel, and just the thought of some of the results is sickening. For those of you who have read <b>Alas, Babylon</b>, you have some idea of what I am talking about. But, Forstchen's book goes beyond <b>Alas, Bablylon</b>. As one reviewer of the book stated, "A blood-chilling wake-up call that chaos and death are but a power plug away . . ."</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I stayed up most of the night reading the book. It was a real page turner for me, somewhat like <b>The Firm </b>was years ago. However, what happened next took me by complete surprise. As I fell asleep, I had a dream in which the Lord spoke to me and said, "There is something worse than an EMP coming to the United States." In the dream I thought to myself, "What could be worse than an EMP? I have just read Forstchen's book, and you are trying to tell me that there is something worse than an EMP coming?" It was then that the Lord spoke to me and told me that the "something worse" coming is CANON LAW. For those of you who do not know what canon law is, I would encourage you to do some research. If what the Lord spoke to me comes to pass - and for the sake of our country I hope it doesn't - the goal of the Roman Catholic Church will have been achieved. The United States of America will have become a Roman Catholic country under the complete, totalitarian rule of the pope and canon law! </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
For those of you who have never been governed by canon law, you are in for a big surprise. You can actually live in a free country like the United States and still live in pure hell, all because of what the Roman Catholic Church calls truth. Its grasp reaches to the highest heaven and even to the depths of hell. It will take you to purgatory and will give you a leader who thinks he is God Himself. It is either the pope's way or no way, and unfortunately, many of our current national leaders are under the sway of this demonic deception. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
I want to remind the reader that I was given this dream a year ago. That was before the pope's planned trip to the United States to see our President; before his plan to make a speech before a joint session of Congress; and before his plan to speak before the United Nations. It all sounds so positively beautiful. But, if I have been warned of the Lord that something worse than an EMP is coming - as in canon law - then, we better take heed to the warning! Our President, by the way, after his visit with Pope Francis, said that the pope is "the real deal." Not much discernment there!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Before the new pope was elected, I had a dream about the upcoming conclave election results. In the dream, the Lord gave me a number. When I awoke from the dream, I walked into the kitchen and looked at the clock, which had another three-digit number. The Lord then spoke to me the following: "Take the first number from the dream and look up the Hebrew word by the number in the Strong's Concordance. Then, take the second number and look up the Greek word by this number." When I did, the words were "black ram." I told some friends of mine later that day that the new pope - who later became Francis I - would either be a black national or a JESUIT! For those of you who are so enamored with the new pope, I would strongly advise you to read the warnings of Francis of Assisi regarding what he had to say about the last pope. For those of you who are not enamored, I am going to simply warn you that if the Roman Catholic Church gains complete control of the United States, there will be persecution and martyrdom of Protestant Christians throughout the United States! Do not be fooled by those who seem to be on the side of what is right - as in pro-life, anti-homosexual, traditional marriage, anti-euthanasia, etc. The goal of the Roman Catholic Church, and the Jesuits in particular, is to take complete control of the United States. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Several years ago, back in the 1990s, I had a dream in which I saw a UFO which suddenly appeared in the sky. It then hid behind a cloud. Next, I saw a white, plastic-like jet appear in the sky over the United States. I knew it was an enemy, and when our jets took off to go after the bigger jet, I thought, "They are going to take the white jet down." However, much to my surprise, instead of our military taking the jet out, they escorted the jet into the United States! As the jet got closer to me in the dream, I saw the seal of the Vatican on the tail of the jet, and I knew that we were being taken over by the Roman Catholic Church. The Lord spoke to me then that great persecution was coming to the United States through the Roman Catholic Church. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Some of you who are reading this are Roman Catholic. My goal is not to offend you. It is to get you to do some homework, to get you to read some of the warnings from your own prophets and priests. Our nation is in for some serious times, and the past history of the persecutions will be nothing when compared to what is coming. The truth about this pope may be hard to bear, but my hope is that you will seriously study what the Bible warns about the last days deception that is coming and that in many ways is already here. My only prayer is, "May God have mercy on us all!" </div>

<b>This is a warning that I gave almost one year ago about the judgment I saw coming to the United States because of decisions that were being made by the Supreme Court regarding the legalization of homosexual marriage. If the judgments that have taken place in the last year in our country weather-wise (and they are judgments) are any indication of what is coming on a nationwide level, all at once, we are in deep trouble. Our nation, through its so-called "wise counselors" in the United States Supreme Court, is headed to destruction, an inevitable destruction.

GOD'S WARNING TO ME THIS MORNING AS I WAS AWAKING</div>

<div align="JUSTIFY">
<br />
This morning as I was waking up, I heard the words "treasuring up," and I immediately knew that it was referring to something that is being stored up by the United States that is not good. In Romans 2 and the first part of Romans 3, the apostle Paul lays out the seven principles by which God will judge people (individuals) at the end of the millennium. One of these principles is that of "accumulated guilt," and that principle is based on the truth that the individual will have despised - or deemed as nothing of value - the RICHES of God's goodness and forbearance and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God is meant and was meant to lead each individual to repentance. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
When the individual does not treasure, value, or esteem the RICHES of God - His goodness, His forbearance, His longsuffering - the heart of the individual becomes hard and impenitent (refusing to repent and turn to God) and TREASURES UP for itself WRATH in the day of wrath and revelation from Heaven of the righteous judgment of God. This hardness of heart means that the person's conscience cannot be pricked, no matter how forcefully or sharply God applies the pressure. There is no compunction, no feeling. The same applies to the United States. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The Lord has been applying the goads or pricks to our national conscience, but we have refused His warnings. He has used His goodness and forbearance, and He has been longsuffering. But, we have turned our backs to Him, and now the day of wrath is upon us, and we are racing to judgment. How can I say this? Because these same principles of judgment that are applied to individuals can and will be applied to nations, including the United States of America. God is no respecter of persons (another principle of God's judgment), and the United States is not going to escape God's wrath just because people think it will, based upon our past performance. HERE IS THE WARNING OF WHAT IS COMING AND WHY.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
As most of you are aware, yesterday the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) declined to hear appeals from five states - Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin - seeking to uphold same-sex marriage bans, thus paving the way for legislation in six other states and setting a course for legislation in a majority of states in the union. As a result of this decision, the judges on the Supreme Court of the United States unknowingly or knowingly added to the Treasury of the United States a sum that will affect every citizen of our country in the not-to-distant future. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
This Treasury of the United States is not the treasury you might be thinking of. This treasury is not the substantial income that vendors might be thinking they are going to derive by performing homosexual weddings or providing for receptions and honeymoons. The treasures that have now been added to the coffers of the United States by SCOTUS are "the treasures of wrath" reserved for the day of wrath that will shortly be poured out upon the United States. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
God has continuously been warning our country with smaller judgments in diverse locations, but the day is coming and now is that there is a judgment coming that will affect THE ENTIRE NATION at once. We have gone along in our dream world thinking that God does not see, God does not care, or maybe even thinking that God is dead. I have news for you: He is alive and well, as we will all find that out soon, whether we want to believe it or not. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
The Word of God warns, "Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil" (Ecclesiastes 8:11). There is a place that either the individual or the nation can reach where they come to believe that God is not watching. The judgment has not fallen, the sentence has not been executed, and God has apparently remained silent. But this is all part of the forbearance and longsuffering of Almighty God - what I have described above as the "riches" of God. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
We have scorned these riches of God's goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering and have instead chosen to treasure up for ourselves the wrath of God that will be poured out in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God. God will be known in one of two ways: either He will be known in His goodness or He will be known in His severity. Apparently, there are those who have decided that as a nation we want to know Him in His severity. "The Lord is known by the judgment which he executes: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah. The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God (Psalms 9:16-17).</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Although the nation will be judged as a whole, I do want you to remember that God's ultimate judgment will be on the individual at the Great White Throne judgment. There will be NO second chances! Now is the acceptable time of salvation. If you do not know that Jesus Christ died for you while you were yet a sinner, while you were yet ungodly, while you were yet an enemy of God, and while you were yet without strength (to save yourself), then NOW is the time to ask Him to forgive you of your sins. He has paid the price you cannot and could not pay. Now is the time to look to the Cross where Jesus Christ became the Sin-Bearer for your sins, died in your place for your sins and was raised again for your justification (acquittal). </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
God is not willing that any should perish but that all would come to the saving-knowledge of Jesus Christ, our soon-coming King and Judge. You do not have to fear the coming judgment on the United States or the Great White Throne Judgment IF you have made the life-changing decision to believe God for your righteousness. Those who have made this decision have only to look forward to glory, honor, and incorruptibility, life eternal. Beloved, do not delay to make this decision. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<br />
<div align="center">
TREASURING UP WRATH</div>
<br />
There is an urgency in my heart that the time is short, and we cannot afford to waste another second of our time. NOW IS THE ACCEPTABLE TIME OF SALVATION! NOW IS THE TIME TO REPENT AND TURN TO GOD, the God who declares righteous the ungodly who believe on Him. He has done for you what you cannot do for yourself. While you were yet a sinner, Christ died for you. You cannot work your own justification (acquittal). It has already been obtained for you. No matter how bad you have been, Christ died for you. Turn to Him. Place your faith and hope in Him, and He will do exceedingly , abundantly above all that you could ask or think!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Years ago I had the privilege of having a very brief talk with Corrie ten Boom, the Christian from Holland who, along with her family, suffered persecution during the Nazi regime of World War II. Her biography, The Hiding Place, portrayed her family's willingness to risk their lives to save the lives of as many of the Jews as they could from the Nazi death camps. The book became a worldwide bestseller and was eventually made into a movie. There was one scene in the book that has always stayed in my mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A local pastor comes to the ten Boom home for a visit. During his visit, Corrie and Betsie ten Boom try to convince the pastor to take one of the babies they are trying to save, especially since the pastor lives in the countryside. The pastor refuses and quickly leaves the house, but not without warning the family - Papa ten Boom, Corrie, and Betsie - that they are going to get themselves into serious trouble when the Nazis find out what they are doing. The pastor did not want to risk his life to save Jews. After the pastor left, Corrie ten Boom is very upset with the pastor and basically comments to her father, "How could this man consider himself to be a Christian, much less a pastor?" Her father's response was priceless: "Just because the mouse is in the cookie jar does not make it a cookie."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, apparently there are two mice in the Tallahassee cookie jar, one in the Senate and one in the House of Representatives. Recently, the two mice, Senator Don Gaetz (a Lutheran) and his son, Representative Matt Gaetz (a Baptist), voted in support of Senate and House bills respectively, that allow homosexual couples to adopt in the state of Florida. In an April 21 newspaper headline, Florida State Sen. Don Gaetz, R-Niceville, also said he does not support a proposal allowing private agencies to deny adoptions by gay and lesbian couples ON RELIGIOUS OR MORAL GROUNDS.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It seems that the Gaetz father-son legislators do not know their Bible, and as a result are playing both sides of the fence, under the guise of non-discrimination and the changing times. Apparently, their ministers are afraid to confront them with the truth! They are probably too busy protecting their 401ks and their livelihoods. Well, here's what your pastors are not telling you. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The days of Elijah are upon us, and the days of God's judgments are upon our nation. As the saying goes, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that something is going wrong in our country. If you think you can support and pass this kind of legislation WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES in your own lives and the lives of the millions of Floridians you are serving, you do not know your Bible. Worse yet, If you think you are born-again Christians, Sirs, you need to check your status. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You cannot serve two masters, which is apparently what you are doing. You cannot vote in favor of people whose lifestyle God considers an abomination and then walk into your churches - Lutheran or Baptist - and say you are worshipping the God of the Bible. However, it is apparent that both of you have decided that you CAN do this AND that YOU KNOW BETTER THAN GOD. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There probably have been many Christians who have mistaken you for fellow-Christians in the past. They may have even worshipped right next to you on a Sunday morning. But, now I hope they see the truth: the Gaetz men have been posing as Christians. Why, I noticed that one of the articles even said Don Gaetz "shepherded" the bill through the senate. Now, that's scary! Sounds like a wolf in sheep's clothing to me. Like the minister in The Hiding Place, Gaetz men, you are just two mice in the cookie jar. And, NEWS FLASH! Just because you are in the cookie jar, Sirs, it does not make you a cookie!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My hope is that you repent and hear the gospel BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!</div>

<strong>A SAD TESTIMONY THAT IS SO SIMILAR TO THE CONDITION OF CHURCHES TODAY IN THE UNITED STATES!</strong> </div>

</div>
One of my favorite commentaries on the book of Romans is by William R. Newell, who was a Bible teacher under Dwight L. Moody. He was asked by Mr. Moody to begin conducting teachings on Romans, which both men believed to be the cornerstone of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But, here is one of the interesting and sad things discovered by Mr. Newell when he ministered the truths of Roma<span class="text_exposed_hide">...</span><span class="text_exposed_show">ns to people ALREADY on the mission field:</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show"></span><br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
"The author must be permitted to say that he had part in the Student Volunteer Movement for foreign missions of fifty years ago; that he saw hundreds of earnest and honest students "volunteer" for the mission field. But afterwards, in teaching the book of Romans, especially in China, he had many a missionary say, "We never knew this gospel before." It is nothing short of tragic to send men and women out against the hosts of hell in heathendom without teaching them through and through and through this mighty gospel Paul preached: - which gospel he says is "the power of God unto salvation." And he comes to further detail in saying, "The word of the cross is the power of God." Education, medication, sanitation, and general sweetness - what does Satan care for that? The word of the cross is the great wire along which runs the dynamic of God - and it runs along no other wire." (from Romans, Verse by Verse, by William R. Newell, p. 275, footnote)<br />
<br />
Brothers and Sisters, will this be your sad testimony on the day of judgment? Are you even being taught the Gospel in your church? Do you even know the goal of the Gospel, GOD'S Good News, for those who need salvation and those who already have it? Do you even know why you need the Good News, even after your salvation? All the answers to these questions are things you should know about the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ. May this message stir your heart to seek again to gain a full understanding of the glorious gospel of God! Paul the apostle did not fail to equip the church of his day with the whole counsel of God. How much more do we need this equipping today! Hopefully, you are being equipped in your church. If not, may God have mercy on you NOW, and especially if you are being sent out to your part of the mission field without the gospel!</div>
</div>

My Response to J. Lee Grady's Article in Charisma Magazine (4/15/2015), "Don't Get Caught Up in Last Days Hysteria"</div>
<br />

<br />
<span lang=""></span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<span lang="">On April 15, 2015, an article appeared in Charisma magazine entitled, "Don't Get Caught Up in Last Days Hysteria." It was written by one of the magazine's long-time writers, J. Lee Grady, author, award winning journalist, and ordained minister. One of the things that caught my attention as I read the article was the use of the letter "D" in the four reasons he gives for not getting caught up in all the hype or why you should avoid an "unhealthy overemphasis on the end times." As some of you may be aware, in March, the Lord gave me a dream which involved the letter "D." In the dream He revealed to me many coming events and/or words which would be important to the Church, both in the United States and in the world "in these Last Days." So, the use of the letter "D" by Mr. Grady definitely caught my attention. However, when I read Mr. Grady's article, I was sickened by his total twisting of the Scriptures, and especially the effect his statements will have on the already slumbering saints in the Church in America.</span></div>
<span lang="">
<br />
</span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<span lang="">Mr. Grady's reasons for not getting caught up in Last Days hysteria were as follows (and notice the "d" words): (1) It is distracting; (2) It is depressing; (3) It is deceptive; and (4) It is divisive. <i>If you believe everything Mr. Grady has written in this article, then you will fall into the category of "D" is for Dumbbell, when you should be in the category of "D" is for Disciple. </i>Why? Because a dumbbell takes everything someone says about what the Scriptures say <b><i>without searching the Scriptures!</i></b> Here are some of the false statements in the article - and these are the ones under just one section of this article, 'It's distracting':</span></div>
<span lang="">
<br />
</span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<span lang="">(1) <i>Nowhere does the Bible give us permission to speculate about when Jesus will return or when the world will end. </i>Notice the careful choice of the verb "speculate". A few years ago, I was attending a church where the pastor said that we could not know the time of the tribulation. I wrote a letter and asked him how it was that we were not going to know the times, especially when the book of Revelation is filled with days of time, as in "time, times, and half a time," forty-two months, and two sets of 1,260 days. I never got a response to my letter. </span></div>
<span lang="">
<br />
</span><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<span lang="">I know that in the past people have been deceived about the end times and dates; however, that does not mean that there is no truth hidden in the Scriptures regarding the last days. That does not mean that you throw the baby out with the bath water, as the saying goes. Actually, if you read the books of First and Second Thessalonians, you will find that we are told that we are not to be left in the dark regarding the end times, the return of Jesus, the rapture of the Church, the Antichrist, and the Tribulation. I would prefer to believe the apostle Paul than Mr. Grady. Think about this. God seems to be the one obsessed with time. Jesus came right on time at His birth. He entered Jerusalem a few days before His death - right on time! He died on time, rose on time, and ascended on time - all times relative to the Jewish calendar. And, He is coming back <b><u>on time</u></b>! </span></div>
<span lang="">
<br />
</span><div align="JUSTIFY">
<span lang="">(2) <i>He gave us one major focus: to reach everybody with the Gospel</i>. Really? I don't think so. Again, if you are in the two types of most American Christians, <b><i><u>dumb and dumber</u></i></b>, you would swallow this lie hook, line, and sinker. Paul the apostle said that he was taught by the resurrected and ascended Christ, so it stands to reason that Jesus did not stop talking at His ascension. Paul had not failed to declare the whole counsel of God to the Church, but apparently, J. Lee must think that the only counsel we last days Christians need is about witnessing. I wonder what J. Lee did with the Scripture in Acts of the Apostles which states that the Holy Spirit actually forbade Paul from going into a certain area to "witness"? J. Lee would probably be outside Noah's Ark telling all of them to get off the Ark and get out there and witness! He would probably be sending Lot, his wife and their daughters back into Sodom. Of course, Lot's wife probably would have been thrilled at this kind of preaching!</span></div>
<span lang="">
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
A few years ago, I spoke at a church where the pastor allowed me to give a test to the congregation. Most of the test had some pretty basic questions. For example, What are the six foundational doctrines of the church? Name the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit. Name the nine fruit of the Holy Spirit, etc. After the meeting, one lady came up to me and summed up what I believe probably spoke for most of the congregation, even though, in fairness to this church and its pastor, she was a visitor that night. She said, "We have never been taught this in my church." To put it briefly, she has never been taught the basic foundational doctrines of Christ! What is your answer to that, J. Lee? Do you think J. Lee would allow me to come into his congregation and give the test? Probably not. They would be too busy evangelizing! So much for the whole counsel of God!</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
(3) <i>Evangelism should be our obsession</i>. If you agree with Mr. Grady, then please find out where he is preaching/teaching and go there. I think I have said enough about the "evangelism" subject.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
(4) <i>The healthiest churches I know are those that are winning the lost, discipling new converts and investing their people and money in reaching the nations. </i>This may be partially true, but is it a good enough reason to have a lopsided church that emphasizes evangelism and reaching the nations without even having some understanding of Bible prophecy or what Jesus says about the End Times? If you do not realize that we are in the end times when we will be forced to make a choice, Christ or the mark of the beast, you are in serious trouble! </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
(5) <i>Churches that become consumed with eschatology drift into weirdness, and they eventually lose sight of the Great Commission. </i> What is the weirdness? Who are the ministries J. Lee is referring to? Who are the churches? OR, is J. Lee too much of a coward to say? Is he afraid of being challenged by some thinking Christians? Eschatology is probably one of the greatest witnessing tools Jesus has given to the Church for the Last Days! Oh, but I forgot. J. Lee wants me out there witnessing. Apparently, he thinks I should not get too caught up in Matthew 24, or too caught up in Jesus' warnings about the last days being like the days of Noah and Lot! Whether J. Lee knows this or not, Jesus Himself gave the <i>eschatological</i> warnings of the events surrounding the days of Noah and Lot, warnings that He said we should pay attention to. J. Lee, I think I will stick with Jesus. When the ark door shuts, I want to be on the inside, Bro! </div>
<i></i><br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<i>(6) Jesus' last words to His followers were clear: "You shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth" (Acts 1:11). </i>Those may be the last words of Jesus that J. Lee Grady has read, but for the informed disciple - not the dumbbell - those are NOT the last words of Jesus to His followers. If that was the case, then you might as well rip out all the writings of the apostle Paul from your Bible. But, J. Lee, before you take that drastic step, take a whole year off, and study nothing but the book of Romans to find out what Paul says that Jesus told him - AFTER Jesus' resurrection and ascension. And, by the way, all that Paul wrote about in Romans is the Good News, the Gospel we should be spreading! </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Here is the final deceptive statement J. Lee makes in just this one section of his article:</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
(7) <i>Yet when He ascended into Heaven, the angels rebuked the disciples because they were staring into the clouds. They said, "Why do you stand looking into the sky?" (Acts 1:11) In essence they were saying: "Don't sit around and wait for Jesus to return. Get busy doing what He told you to do." </i>Again, if you are a dumbbell, you would be thinking, "You know, J. Lee is right! We should be out evangelizing instead of looking for the Lord's return. We should avoid an <i>unhealthy</i> <i>overemphasis</i> on the end times!" Unfortunately, for the uninformed (dumb and dumber) Christian, there would be an immediate "Amen!" to J. Lee's statement. But, just what did the angels say? And, on top of that, what did Jesus say before His own ascension and after He had given the command to go into all the world and preach the Gospel? </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Beloved, I am not going to answer any of those questions. What I want you to do is to search the Scriptures to see if what J. Lee Brady has stated in his article is true. I personally do a lot of reading and studying<i> </i>in my Bible regarding the Last Days. I am not distracted; I am not depressed. I have been a Christian over 40 years. I have never been more excited about what the Lord is doing and where He is taking the Church in this hour! </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
While Mr. Grady says that the Last Days hysteria is deceptive, I would say, he is the one deceived. If you believe him, then you are the one who is going to have to give account for your actions on judgment day. Your choice is between what Mr. Grady is espousing and what Jesus has told us and warned us of. The end times prophecies were not given to us to completely ignore while we are out witnessing! According to apostles Peter and Paul, they are given for our instruction and warning. But, apparently, J. Lee wants to leave you in the dumb and dumber categories.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Is the discussion about the last days divisive? YES! And rightly so. Do you <b><i>not think</i></b> it was divisive in the days of Noah and Lot? Noah and his family were divided from the whole antediluvian world! Lot and his surviving family members were divided from everyone else in Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities who did not have a clue as to what was getting ready to happen. </div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Christian, for the sake of your family, friends, and enemies, read your Bible. Read what it has to say about the End Times. If you are accused of being hysterical, so what? Do you not think that Lot was a little hysterical when he went to warn his relatives about God's coming judgment? Do you not think that Noah and his sons were a little hysterical when trying to warn the people of coming judgment? What is happening in churches that do focus on the end times is not just people crying, "Wolf!" It's the real deal. God is trying to warn His Church, but if you listen to what J. Lee and his type have to say, you will be shut out of the ark or left in the cities set for destruction. The choice is yours. J. Lee or Jesus. </div>
