Believing God

If what the Bible says about the people of the United States and other English-speaking countries is true, if what God says will happen to America really happens in your lifetime, can you blame anyone else for ignoring the message? If you find later, while you are suffering in a slave labor camp or dying of starvation or disease, that you had a chance to escape had you heeded the warning and checked up for yourself to see if the Bible is inspired by God and if the things prophesied to happen to the United States in about the next 10 or 15 years are really in the Bible, can you blame anyone else but yourself for not paying attention to the warning?

The United States and the World in Bible Prophecy explains, from the Bible, what God says will happen to the United States, Great Britain, Canada, and other English-speaking in the near future. The picture is not pretty. The long-term future is good, but in short term we will suffer horribly, unless we repent. The proof is in the Bible and in history, and this article explains how you can find it. The article also explains what you can do to get through this time in the best possible way.

But don't take the time to check up. You have more important things to do, like watch TV, movies, go out with friends, play games, etc. Just let what happens to you, happen. Why worry about the future? Just enjoy today.

I have recently written and published online two new articles and a book. All are free, in the public domain, and may be downloaded in .pdf format or read online.

The United States and the World in Bible Prophecy explains what Bible prophecy predicts for the world in general and the English speaking nations in particular in the years just ahead.

The Creation of Species shows why the scientific method does not allow science to prove that evolution occurred, and it shows that evolution is a faith. By faith I mean it is a belief system based on the subjective, personal choice of the believer, not on objective physical proof. I also suggest a way that a literal understanding of Genesis can be reconciled with the evidence of fossils and genetics, and why God may have developed the vast variety of species gradually over time rather than all at once. This article explains HOW intelligent design may have been implemented and why it was done in a way that has produced the fossil record that scientists have found.

The True Gospel and the Ezekiel Warning is a full-length book that goes into Bible doctrine and Bible prophecy in detail and shows how the true gospel differs from mainstream traditional religious doctrine. Here is a list of chapters:


Chapter 1 - The United States and Britain in Prophecy.

This chapter shows how to identify prophecies that pertain particularly to the English speaking people today. This chapter also gives proof that God exists and that He has inspired the Bible.


Chapter 2 - What is the True Gospel?

This chapter explains from the Bible what the true gospel is and how Bible teachings differ from mainstream, traditional Christian doctrines.


Chapter 3 - Is Observance of the Weekly Sabbath and Annual Feast Days Required?

What does the Bible really teach about the weekly Sabbath and annual holy days and feasts given in the Old Testament? Are these days only part of the Old Covenant and obsolete, or should they be kept today? This chapter explains the answer from the Bible.


Chapter 4 - The Name of God

Is God's name "Jehovah"? Is "God" a name or a title only? Is Jesus Christ God and has He existed forever, or was He created? Is God more than one person? Is it correct to use "Lord" as God's name? These are some of the questions that will be answered in this chapter from the Bible.


Chapter 5 - How to Know a Prophet

Seventh Day Adventists regard Helen White as a prophet. Mormons believe Joseph Smith was a prophet and that the Book of Mormon is inspired by God. Bible prophecy predicts both true and false prophets to appear between now and the return of Christ. It is important to know therefore how to tell if a man is a true prophet of God, or not. This short chapter covers the basics of the signs of a true prophet and what to look for in evaluating if a man or woman is a true prophet of God.


Chapter 6 - The Theory of Evolution and the Creation of Species.

This chapter shows that the physical evidence in fossils and genetics is entirely consistent with a literal understanding of Genesis. It also proves that evolution is a faith and that the scientific method itself prevents science from proving that evolution occurred. It also shows from the Bible how God views our materialistic society, a society that is dominated more and more atheistic evolution.


Chapter 7 - The Ezekiel Warning

The Ezekiel warning is a warning of punishment upon the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia, and other nations for our sins. This chapter shows where to find that warning in the Bible, what our sins are, and what the punishment will be like.

About 40 years ago I was challenged to prove my beliefs, and I was able to prove for myself both that God exists and that the Bible is His inspired word, or in other words, the Bible is God speaking. Since then I have made the personal decision to believe what God says in the Bible. I believe the Bible because I have proved it is His word and I choose to believe that God does not lie.

The account of how I proved that God exists is in my free, public domain, online book "Preaching the Gospel" at http://www.ptgbook.org.

Some have asked, when I say that we should look to the Bible for truth, "Whose interpretation of the Bible?"

That question contains an assumption I do not share. The assumption is that the Bible cannot be read like any other book, that it must be interpreted before it can be understood. While there are some difficult passages that are not easily understood, most of the Bible is plain and needs no interpretation. And the scriptures that are difficult to understand are interpreted by the scriptures that are easy and need no interpretation. Usually, people who think the Bible as a whole needs to be interpreted want to "interpret" it to mean something other than what it says. They want to twist the meaning so they have an excuse not to believe and obey God.

There are many Bible scholars who have spent years studying the Bible and theology in the colleges and universities of this world, yet they do not believe and obey God. Their efforts to study the Bible are largely useless. They learn to "interpret" the Bible according to the teachings of their religion and their instructors. But God helps those who believe and obey Him to understand the simple statements of the Bible. Someone who has a humble mind and fears God and believes and strives to obey what God says in the Bible has a better chance of understanding the Bible, even if he has little formal education, than some highly-degreed brilliant scholar who has spent years studying the Bible, but does not believe and obey God.
