God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life
The problem is that . . .
2. All of us have done, said or thought things that are wrong. This is called sin, and our sins have separated us from God.
The Bible says
All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
God is perfect and holy, and our sins separate us from God forever. The Bible says
The wages of sin is death.
The good news is that, about 2,000 years ago,
3. God sent His only Son Yeshua(Jesus) the Messiah to die for our sins.
Yeshua (Jesus) is the Son of God. He lived a sinless life and then died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins.
God demonstrates His own love for us in that while we were yet sinners Messiah (Christ) died for us.
Yeshua (Jesus) rose from the dead and now He lives in heaven with God His (our) Father. He offers us the gift of eternal life -- of living forever with Him in heaven if we accept Him as our Lord and Savior. Yeshua (Jesus) said
I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except by Me.
God reaches out in love to you and wants you to be His child.
As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe on His name.
You can choose to ask Yeshua the Mesiah (Jesus Christ) to forgive your sins and come in to your life as your Lord and Savior.
4. If you want to accept Yeshua (Jesus) as Savior and turn from your sins, you can ask Him to be your Savior and Lord by praying a prayer like this:
Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. I want to serve you always.
Now, begin to learn about Him & obey Him.
Did you pray this prayer? Please let me know. [/Color][/B]

June 7, 2010 I haven't blogged in such a long time. I think I have been in a sort of semi-coma state of belief. Part of my soul rejoices at seeing the pages of Daniel, Isaiah and Revelation literally spring to life off of their pages. Eschatology: the study of the end of days. It has always fascinated me. Even as a young girl, I would glean through the pages of Revelation and pretend that I understood it's meaning. I didn't, but I knew that inside of those words were hidden treasures. Gods supernatual puzzle that he put together for us to reassemble at the end of time. It was with prayer and wisdom that I kept reading and asking for insight to comprehend. I still don't understand everything, some things are for our Lord to know, and for Him alone. What I do understand is that so many signs that were revealed to John on the island of Patmos are now coming to fruition. When I opened the AOL page this morning, I saw the Gulf laden with oil, dead fish and birds, people on the shores crying and praying. The oil floating on the water appeared to be red. Not black. This is most likely why John said the oceans would turn red like blood. He had no oil spill to compare...to him, it was red, and red in those days was blood. The hand of God is heavily on our nation. I see and hear everyone waiting with deafening silence to see what our President Obama will do. Will he side with Israel? Will he side with Turkey? Will he try to be everyone's friend and ride the fence? We don't have to watch the news to know the answer. It's in the book. He will, of course, turn on Israel. As will all of the nations. This is prophecy. What he does, he is compelled to do by the hand of the Creator of this world. For believers, as heartbreaking as it is to see the animals suffer, the carnage, the broken people, it is uplifting to know that the words of our Lord some 2000 years ago are as true and faithful today as they were then. We can trust Him. He will keep His promises, both good and bad. He forewarns us...gives us the opportunity to repent and then lets us choose. This is not a dictator, this is a loving father whose arms are out simply saying, "come". When the last trumpet is sounded and time stops...it will be too late. Humble yourself as you see the righteous hand of our great Lord begin to stretch out over his creation and bring to justice the Son of Man, the accuser, Satan. Count me among those who has unshakable faith, through it all, even until the end. Pray my saved brothers for mercy on those who don't know Him, pray my unsaved brothers that you might. To God be the glory and praise, today and forever more. Amen.[/SIZE]
Zechariah 13:8 – And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
Revelation 12:6 – And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Zechariah 13:9 – And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.
Begin 1976 Quote from “Tectonic Chaos”
The ten horns of Revelation 13:1 are ten Arab nations who will form the nucleus of the final kingdom, and the ten crowns are the power of the kings that will rile them. For years we have pictured the typical Arab as a scrawny little fellow on a camel in the desert with a comic expression on his face. This viewpoint is quickly changing. Oil is replacing the U.S. dollar in international importance – and soon ten Arab nations will have gained economic control of much of the earth’s wealth. We will not try to stop them because of the Soviet Union – and the Soviet Union will not try to stop them because of us and Red China. The world power block will block itself as the Arab nations prosper in our midst.
End 1976 Quote from “Tectonic Chaos”
Meshech and Tubal will lead 10 Islamic nations against Israel to start the war of 1260 days, and the present day occupants of the land of Magog will come down at the end of the war that culminates with the final battle of Armageddon.
Rulers of the Land of Magog are currently seeking to befriend the two strongest horns of Daniel 7 that will eventually be composed of the first ten Islamic horns that attack Israel. When Jerusalem falls and Egypt is conquered by the 10 horns, all of the Islamic nations from Morocco to Indonesia will quickly join into a united Caliphate. Russia is the Land of Magog, and its friendship being offered today is motivated by its desire to be the only world power with access to the oil controlled by the future Islamic Caliphate.

10 Jihad Kings among the Kings of Revelation 19:19!
Part 2 – The 10 Jihad Horns of Daniel 7
At the battle of Armageddon most of the kings of the earth will come to join the antichrist in a final attempt to eradicate the nation of Israel. Among them will be 10 nations representing the 10 Jihad horns of Daniel 7. Revelation 19:19 – And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
Some three and one-half years before the final battle of Armageddon, which closes the tribulation period, 10 kings of nations out of the territory once occupied by the ancient Roman Empire will attack Israel from the north.
II Thessalonians 2:3 – Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
The last evil kingdom of antichrist on this earth was to initially be composed of 10 nations with 10 kings led by the man of sin himself. It was to arise out of part of the area of the old Roman Empire, and I have always believed it would rise out of the southern half of the Empire, being initially made up of 10 Arab nations. I believe the elements for its formation are in place today, and I suspect that the most likely Arab nations of which it will be comprised are Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Sudan, Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Iran.
Daniel 7:23-25 – Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. [24] And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. [25] And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. When a best selling book was written in the fifties about six emerging European Common Market nations, it began to cause many theologians to rapidly change their minds as to where the antichrist would eventually arise. Prior to that time most had believed he would arise out of the old Seleucid dynasty, which was formed by one of the generals who divided Alexander’s Grecian Empire into four sections. Many believed the Assyrian, in the fifth chapter of Micah, would be the antichrist, and that he would arise in, and come out of, modern day Syria. (See Nationality of the Antichrist – Parts 1 to 8, in Archive Prophecy Updates 62 to 69)
Before the European Common Market theory arose, a majority believed antichrist would come out of the southern half of the old Roman Empire, rather than out of the European northern half. But the great popularity of the aforementioned book ascended to the highest levels of acceptability, and previous beliefs were dwarfed to obscurity. The book indicated that the six original members of the Common Market would soon be joined by four other nations to reach ten, and then be joined by the eleventh horn. He was to be the antichrist of Daniel’s fourth beast in chapter seven. However, soon there were ten horns, then there were eleven, then more, then fifteen, then twenty-five, and soon more are likely to be added. But the astounding popularity of this book, and the thousands of preachers and other teachers who have taught it, have left a legacy behind them, and it is difficult to persuade very many they might not be correct in what they have taught, and are still teaching.
I have been very concerned, since the book was published, about the possibility it might cause many to be deceived when he does not arise in Europe, but in Syria. Quite frankly, I watch both Europe and Syria just like a hawk, and, if I do see him rising in Europe, I most assuredly will accept it. I am prepared for both. But many are so convinced he must come out of Europe, I doubt if anything would change their minds. In any case, in future updates I will show my reasons for believing he will come out of the Syria area.
The beast of Daniel 7:23 does indeed represent the old Roman Empire, and it certainly did tread down “the whole world,” that is, the “known” world of Daniel’s day. Have you ever thought that perhaps we were meant to take the expressions of Daniel’s day concerning the world, and believe that is the only part of the present world the antichrist will dominate completely? (See Archive Prophecy Updates 77, 77A, 77b, and 77C)
The ten horns will arise out of “the whole world” of Daniel’s day. But why do they have to be European nations? Were not Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt, northern Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, and northern Sudan part of the old Roman Empire under the Emperor Trajan? And are not these countries the descendants of Ishmael, the first son of Abraham, and Keturah’s six sons by Abraham, and the two sons of Abraham’s nephew Lot, Moab and Ammon by his two daughters? Are not these descendants of Abraham the ones who have hated and battled the sons of Abraham through Israel for many centuries? In any case, since I believe the attack is likely to occur before 2015, I expect to know where he will arise one way or the other in the next few years, that is, if I survive the grave before Jesus returns. I am certain such an attack will occur, and I believe the best guess for its occurrence is 2010 to 2015, but I am by no means certain of WHEN it will occur, only that it is not in the distant future. It may well occur after 2015, but I do not believe many years will pass after that date before it is launched by 10 Arab nations.
Begin Excerpt from DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
New arms deal expected in Medvedev’s Damascus visit
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
May 10, 2010, 1:44 PM (GMT+02:00)
Although the Kremlin stated that no weapons deals will be signed during Russian president Dmitry Medvedev’s first state visit to Damascus, Monday, May 10, but they may be discussed and even approved, a prospect which has the US and Israel deeply concerned, DEBKAfile’s Washington and military sources report. These items may well include sophisticated weapons systems which Moscow has withheld from Iran.
Both Washington and Jerusalem were unpleasantly surprised by Moscow’s willingness to provide Bashar Assad with this public shot in the arm just a week after the Obama administration renewed US sanctions against Syria, citing its support for terrorist groups and pursuit of weapons of mass destruction as an “extraordinary threat” to American national security. Syria is widely shunned in the Middle East itself. Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak brusquely refused to receive Assad for a get-well visit to Sharm el-Sheikh.
The Syrian ruler will not doubt take the Russian gesture as support for his supply of long-range missiles to Hizballah and its substantial enhancement of the of the extremist Tehran-Damascus-Hizballah-Hamas alignment in the Middle East at the expense of the pro-Western moderate bloc led by Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
On April 30, DEBKA-Net-Weekly 443 carried a report on the negative import of the Medvedev visit, but Israeli government leaders were too busy dealing with the reopening of indirect talks with the Palestinians to gear up in time to forestall the damage to Israel’s interests predicted from expected Russian-Syrian deals.
Observers in Washington see the deepening of Moscow-Damascus relations as a failed mark for the Obama-Clinton drive to woo Assad. Some are saying that the Kremlin, for its part, seeks to use Syria as a fig leaf for its deepening crisis with Tehran, following the Russian president’s promise to Barack Obama to back tough sanctions against Iran. This promise was accompanied by Moscow’s secret assurance to hold back from activating Iran’s first nuclear reactor at Bushehr – in breach of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s pledge earlier this month to have the reactor up and running by August.
The Russian president needs to demonstrate that the Kremlin is not in Washington’s pocket on Iran – and certainly not aligned with Israel – hence his show of friendship toward Damascus and a possible major arms transaction with Syria that will give Iran a back door for acquiring the sophisticated weapons Moscow has denied to date.
In view of this concern, Israeli president Shimon Peres was dispatched to Moscow to attend Sunday’s events Sunday marking the 65th anniversary of the allied victory against the Nazis. He tried to discourage the Russian president from going to these lengths, but failed to obtain a clear response to his appeal from Medvedev.

The Antichrist!--also described in the Bible as the "son of perdition" & the "beast"! Like Hitler, who was one of history's antichrist archetypes, he will have great charisma & speaking ability, "a mouth speaking great things".
The Antichrist will rise to power on a wave of world euphoria, as he temporarily saves the world from its desperate economic, military & political problems with a brilliant 7-year plan for world peace, economic stability & religious freedom.
The Antichrist could well rise out of the current chaos in the former Soviet Union. The prophet Ezekiel names him as the ruler of "Magog", a name that Biblical scholars agree denotes a country or region of peoples to the north of Israel. Many have interpreted this to mean modern day Russia. His power base will include the leading nations of Europe, whose leaders, the Bible says, will "give their power & strength unto the beast." The Bible even gives some clues about his personal characteristics. The prophet Daniel wrote that the Antichrist "does not regard the desire of women." This could imply that he is either celibate or a homosexual. Daniel also tells us that he will have a "fierce countenance" or stern look, and will be "more stout than his fellows"--more proud and boastful. Fierce CountenanceThe 7-year peace-pact (or covenant) that is engineered by the Antichrist is spoken of a number of times in the Bible, & may even have already been signed in secret. The historic peace agreement signed between Israel & the PLO at the White House on September 13, 1993, vividly illustrates how dramatically events in the Middle East are presently moving in this direction.
Under the final terms of the Covenant, Jerusalem will likely be declared an international city to which Judaism, Islam & Christianity will have equal rights. Scripture indicates that the Jews will be permitted to rebuild their Temple on Mt. Moriah, where they revive their ancient rituals of animal sacrifice.
According to prophecy the Antichrist will not only be a master of political intrigue, but also a military genius. Daniel describes several major wars that he fights during his 7-year reign, apparently against the U.S. & Israel, who will oppose him during the second half of his reign.
Breaking the CovenantFor awhile, most of the world is going to think the Antichrist is wonderful, as he will seem to have solved so many of the world's problems. But , three-and-a-half years into his seven year reign he will break the covenant & invade Israel from the North.
At this time he will make Jerusalem his world capitol & outlaw all religions, except the worship of himself & his image. The Bible says that the Antichrist will sit in the Jewish Temple exalting himself as God & demanding to be worshipped.
It is at this time that the Antichrist imposes his infamous "666" one-world credit system...
by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) Feb 11th 2010 at 8:01PM In the last few months we've been noticing Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich doing a lot of spending. There was that pricey New York dinner, the lavish New Year's Eve party, the new house in Los Angeles. He seems to be doing quite well and he's not alone, Russia is making billionaires once again. The Moscow-based magazine Finans says that Abramovich remains one of Russia's top three richest men. The magazine's data reveals that all those in the top ten had a fortune of at least $9.95 billion. Two of the richest, Mikhail Prokhorov and Roman Abramovich were worth more last year, with $14.1 billion and $13.9 billion, respectively.
Businessweek reports that Russia gained 28 new billionaires bringing the total to 77 from 49 a year ago. That's a good number but not quite up to the 101 billionaires that were filling Russia's coffers in 2008. Finans states that the combined wealth of the 10 richest Russians now sits at $139.3 billion, up 84 percent over last year but still down from the $221 billion the 10 richest were worth two years ago.
It's raining today and so I am happy. It makes my small world seem quiet and peaceful. I sip my coffee and think of the litany of things I must accomplish today. However! today our Lord reminded me that behind my beautifully manicured lawn and tall brick house, a war is going on. Not only the war that we face in the Middle East, a much more powerful and important war. It is in the spiritual realm. When we study the books of Daniel, and Revelation, it is revealed to us very plainly the events that we will be seeing at the "end of days". These signs will be the beginning of the "birthing pains" that will bring about the war of Armageddon and will bring the destruction of the entire world. There is an enemy that is powerful and he is under pressure because his time is almost up. Satan knows how the story ends. He will be cast into the lake of fire for all eternity. He is selfish and doesn't want to be there alone. He needn't worry. He will most certainly not be alone. So many people joke and say hell will be more fun because my friends will be there, too. Songs ring out on the radio like AC/DC's Highway To Hell. It's all fun and games. Who can be the most wild and carefree? Those who think that Hell is a party....please read your bible. It is so dark in Hell that you cannot see your hand held in front of your face. It is hot and smolders night and day. You are alone. You are aware that you are alone, and worst of all, you are aware that your chance to be in Heaven has passed you by ...by your own choosing. You'll wish you could die, kill yourself, escape, but you can't. You are already dead and your soul was created to live for eternity somewhere. Jesus is coming. Very soon. Not on my say so....just read the papers. Israel is getting ready to face the Middle East in an all out nuclear war. Russia and China (two very prominent figures in the end times) are rising in power and strength. Just a few short years ago Russia was a starving country. Today it is home to many multi-billionaires....read about Roman Abromowitz and his billion dollar yacht ....... these are the players that are rising to power. Read about the stats of Mr. Abromowitz's yacht and tell me why? does he need such a military ready yacht? We see earthquakes in places that we've not seen them before. Keep your eyes open and you'll begin to see the signs for yourself. Of course, if you don't know what you're looking for, you will never find it. So, please, get out your bibles and read, get on your knees and ask for wisdom, utilize google to help put the pieces together. Just don't be left behind. There is an old spiritual song that says, "two men walking up a hill, one disappears and one's left standing still.....I wish we'd all been ready"....are you ready? Give your life to Jesus today. We are not promised one more moment beyond this one. I will post my end times articles for you to read and respond. I look forward to a home in Heaven. You can be there, too. May God bless and be merciful to us all in the coming months. Amen.
