Yes to Little Spirits in Heaven - No to Little Spirits on Earth Over four decades ago I had a dream vision of many of the details of the second coming of Christ. It sent me on a lifetime quest to find out all I could about this great coming event. Today more people than ever are having visions, dreams and revelations about this wonderful future event. Yankee Pride - Brussels Babel - Gabriel's Trumpet: The Abrupt Apocalypse I hate writing articles that require an explanation of the title but I am delighted when someone reads my work because they instantly knew what the title meant. With this title I am inclined to just say; you’ve got three chances to decide what it means and two don’t count. Worlds First GPS Tracking System is Nearly Two Thousand Years Old The height of GPS tracking may have been reached recently with the advent of a handheld unit for pedestrians. People taking a walk won’t get lost now. Have people out for a casual walk actually been getting lost? Will Believers Tip the 2012 Election? The smallest division of the church is the triumphant church, so named because of their faithfulness to the Savior and his word which includes the doctrine and inspired word of his Apostles. Why America Must Return to the Faith of Our Fathers Skilled statisticians like George Barna and carefully researched studies from the Pew Reports all show a declining moral climate and a gradual but alarming number of youthful exits from the church in America. Is it chronic, should we be worried? Who Will You Kiss when the Ball Drops in Times Square? At or near the end of any man’s life there is no rush to replenish the riches, the size of our families or our sphere of influence. The thoughts of what our lives have meant, take precedence, even among those who, don’t believe they will have to account to God. When the god of Empiricism Fails - Science Blocks Its Ears A recent report out of one American university students were advised not to debate with creationists about the origins of life. Debates have become a great medium just to bring the latest findings of creationism to the table. When Religious Tolerance Becomes Intolerable Change is good with practical limitations applied but total change may actually be the axe that smashes the foundations of a people and brings their social construct to the ground. When Religion Fails in America - Prophecy Will Not In America secular forces are actively trying to give Christianity the boot. Day by day trusted biblical precepts are being scoffed at, openly ignored and actively fought against. Whatever Happened to Domestic Tranquility? According to the framers of the Constitution one of the original intentions of ordaining that revered document was to insure domestic tranquility. The term was used in the preamble to the Constitution and has never been used to adjudicate any constitutional questions. What Price Would You Pay? Modern films often jump forward and back in time in what are called flashbacks. Some movies actually start off in the last scene and then revert to the beginning to show how all the events have lead up to the final scene. What Ever Happened to Dignity: The Itching of America How inspired is the race in the Congress to protect all the sexual orientations that have emerged of late. Are they really threatened? Shouldn’t someone tell the Congress that most Americans have not even heard of most of them yet? West's Winter of Discontent, The Arab Spring and The Summer from Hell Could it be that the riots across Europe, the bloody slaughter of Syria’s own citizens, the upheavals in Libya and now the potential of a bursting bombshell here in our own ‘Occupy’ demonstrations, are the predicted birth pangs Jesus so carefully warned about? Using the First Amendment to Create a Shameless Nation In Illinois a Northwestern University professor is taking heat for allowing an after school demonstration of live sex as part of his human ‘Sexuality’ class. Rather than depending on the student’s imagination and discussions the instructor thought a live show would have a greater academic benefit. Under the Shadow of Our Steeple: Unintended Prophecy? In 2005 the extremely popular contemporary Christian soft rock group Casting Crowns released a song title that has become a much beloved song throughout the world. The title, “Does Anybody Hear Her” poses the question that every young person in this generation has asked at sometime in their lives. UFOs, Abortion and the Novelist Who Poses with Typewriters Over forty years ago I befriended Mrs. Keyes personal secretary who invited me to the author’s restored home in the French Quarter of New Orleans only a few years before Mrs. Keyes died. The house was once the residence of General Pierre Toutant Gustave Beauregard. U.S. and EU Strengthen Ties - Prophecy Train Tops the Grade With nearly every major facet of second coming prophecy falling into place in the last forty years, news of new ties between the U.S. and the EU leaves very little yet to be fulfilled. Tyranny Terror and Moral Relativism - America's Shifting Battlefronts America was founded on the premise that men should live without tyranny from oppressive rulers and laws. It is a battle that never really ends. Tyranny has two equally dangerous and deadly sisters creeping into America’s social fabric and both are endowed with deep skullduggeries. Top 10 Most Unbelievable Things of 2008 - Or Maybe of all Time Some of the most popular TV shows today are top ten lists. Everything from the top ten most deadly snakes to the top ten worst disasters is being aired. Here is a top ten list of what could be considered the hardest things to believe from 2008. That there are only ten is also hard to believe. Tolerance and diversity: The Brain Eaters As a boy I marveled at the documentaries that showed how people approached what they perceived as God around the world. Some worshipped rocks and trees, (animism) while others picked some venerable ancient personage and elevated them to the place of deity (avatars) Tolerance and Diversity - What are we Supposed to Tolerate? After the brutal shooting death of Pakistan’s Christian Minister Shabbaz Bhatti for his opposition to ‘blasphemy laws’ the persecution and murders of Christians continues unabated in Pakistan and other Muslim countries. Is this what the west is supposed to tolerate? The Vision that Started a Lifetime of Prophetic Ministry What God has directly said or done in my life is far more important than the ordinary business of my life or my rearing. I have chosen to start with what I believe is the single most important vision that God has given me to date. The Osteen Bible and other Apostasy Milestones What is all the talk about an “apostasy” or a “falling away” really about? Hundreds of examples have occurred in 2007 and this year holds the promise of more to come. Let’s examine just a few examples from the very first week of 2008. The One True Church - Protestants Poo Poo Pompous Pope Pope Benedict XVI has drawn fire from Protestants worldwide for saying in early July of 2007, that they are not part of the “true church.” Protestants have weighed in and the response has included everything from disappointment to anger. The New Evangelicals - Busy Sweeping Out Spider Webs Some forty years past I had to look up the word “apostasy.” In the Bible it refers to the church in the last days being influenced by faithlessness, liberalism and secularism. Sadly I have witnessed this trend gaining and now it is spiraling out of control. The Incredible Speed of Falling - Stand Up America Recent polls say Americans deal with the ever changing landscape of culture and politics by retreating to the tube with remote in hand. Do we need to be reminded that David Letterman was only joking when he said “Everyone has a purpose in life. Perhaps yours is watching television." The Impassioned Message of Rick Santorum, Bella and the Unborn There may be a thousand arguments for and against Rick Santorum’s vision for America, but for many of us; the character of the man and most of the controversy has been settled with a single word – Bella. The GOP Nomination and the Other Side of the Frying Pan As the day approaches and the 54 million aborted children come to God’s remembrance I submit that it will take more than a handful of gold coins and lower jobless numbers to recover any real security in the nation. The Economy: The Opiate of the Classes Is talking about the economy becoming the opiate of the classes? Is that perhaps exactly what the present administration had in mind when it coined another well known quote? The Destruction of Rome and the Catholic Church - A Prophetic Surety I have been reticent to cover this matter of the scriptures only because it is loaded with controversy and high emotional feelings especially among Catholics. The 2012 Elections and the Twenty Million Factor John McCain was beat by approximately twenty million voters in the 2008 election. Are those voters going to vote for Barack Obama again? If they do, the hardest question of all to answer is: why? The 2006 Elections - What does it mean to the Christian The winning of the majority of seats in both houses by democrats might seem insignificant to believers but it is part and parcel of a greater trend throughout the world. It is not a cause for panic but it must be carefully analyzed in the light of biblical prophecy and sound biblical doctrine. TBN: No Naming Names - Apostasy's New Gospel of Thieves After 23 years in the special top audience time slots with Trinity Broadcasting Network, Dr. Jack Van Impe has pulled the plug with Trinity Broadcasting. Tammy Faye - A Season We Will Always Remember As enigmatic as a mystery that we can’t seem to take our eyes from, even while we barley understand what it is we are seeing, this was Tammy Faye Messner Super Power, Super Committee and the 'Whoops' Factor Those who think they are leading the nation into the next century are more likely to be leading us into the last disastrous decade, all the while demons are laughed off as something from the New Testament era, unscientific, unappreciated and unseen. Super Bowl 45 Interview and the Prayer Breakfast - Political Magic? Watching the interview O’Reilly conducted with the President during Super Bowl 45 kept bringing to mind the name of a message I once heard a preacher give to his homily at a revival rally in a small town in the frosty little State of Vermont. Stone the Prophets - Which Ones I can’t imagine an individual or any organization wanting to be responsible for separating the false prophets from the true. One mistake could leave them with innocent blood on their hands. This is why no one has ever been called upon by God or man to undertake this task since Christ came to earth. Shining Shuttle to the Stars or Long Black Train to Hell It has been calculated that after the 1969 Tet Offensive in Vietnam that the North Vietnamese army was largely made ineffective. With that in mind it could also be said that America has lost no major war in its entire history. Is that what makes America a “super power”? Selling Christian Junk While making Shipwreck of Our Faith? In the 1960’s I was onboard an 800ft long vessel that entered the Bermuda Triangle. She sailed along with ease in the calmest seas until clouds began forming on the horizon directly in the path of our heading. Rick Warren's Whole Bird - Why This Bird Can't Fly When Faith and Family’s Dr. Richard Land was my pastor over thirty years ago he once described his calling to preach the gospel. He said that the call to preach the gospel was a higher calling than becoming the President of the United States. After more than three decades I'm sure he was right. Religion Bad, Science Good - An Argument for Fools . It is why for some forty years or so, I have always quoted a word my first pastor spoke to me and that I have never found reason to doubt. “A man with an experience is never at the mercy of a man with an argument.” Religion and Politics Don't Mix - A Modern Fairy Tale America is a land of many contradictions possibly born out of her love for freedom. Some are comical while others are harmful. What about the famous 'religion and politics don't mix?' Any truth to that one? Protests at Creation Museum - The New Politics of Science Science that heretofore seemed hard connected to empirical gathering of data and basic protocols of discovery seems to be losing its subjectivity. Darwinists are taking to active social protesting. Will they next try to make their views the law? Prosperity or Poverty - What Does the Bible Really Say Does God really want all believers to be rich or is it his plan to keep them poor? The controversy rages while the most important element of all is completely overlooked. What is that element? Prophets are not God's PR men - Evangelism is not cheerleading Andy Warhol may have been slightly off when he said everyone is allowed their fifteen minutes of fame. Sometimes they are allowed a few years or even decades to ride a wave of popularity but even at that another dawn always breaks. Prophet, pundit or newsman - America's Confusion A simple scan of current events, a gander at the online or TV news will leave you reeling in disbelief. Never before have newsmen and reporters been so highly lauded for the work they do. Yet in the end it is like the adage; water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink. Prophecy: The Rock that Cannot Be Moved After a lifetime studying and proclaiming Biblical prophecy it is now apparent that, in this turbulent and unstable world, prophecy is along with the Savior who it points to, the only immovable rock known to man, past, present or future. Prophecy 2012: America in the Valley of Decision We all know the country has made a wrong turn, but now we can no longer just say, the nation is in danger of falling. If we do not respond as a people, all that will be said of us is, not that we fell, but rather, that we willfully left our greatness behind. Prophecy 2011 - Is America Dancing with Devils? This will be a transitional year for America and indeed the rest of the world as well. Too many degenerative changes have been set in motion across the globe for us to see much of a reversal in the great demise of nations. Presidents, Pundits and Prophets - Big List of Wrong Answers for 2011 Here are five of the most often asked questions of 2011 that by virtue of the answers given by Presidents, Pundits and Prophets can also be included in the list of the five most absurd answers of 2011, or perhaps of all time. Can we correct some of these answers?
