Watching For Heavenly Signs And Wonders
The Church World is ripe for judgment. An evil and blasphemous secular world is certainly headed to judgment, but it’s the Church that will be judged first. I believe that the present state of the Church demands that the Heavenly Father act to preserve His Holy Name. Church music is no longer Christ-honoring, but man-honoring. I am preparing an article showing the “contest between music styles and lyrics.” Gospel music is exclusively Bible-filled, while contemporary music is almost totally humanistic. The Holy Ghost will absence Himself from a church where the music does not utterly honor our Lord Jesus Christ. When a minister will brag about his sins, while the congregation applauds him, it’s over for that church if someone does not repent. The whorish system of the Catholic Church is quickly drawing the once Bible-believing churches into her fold. Church leaders are blaspheming the great church fathers that died at the stake, were drowned, or brutally murdered by this Babylonian church. (Read Revelation 17.) Great signs and wonders are prophesied to be manifest before the end. “And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come” (Acts 2:19-20). With a Church World so utterly forsaking the absolute truths of the Bible, we best be watching for His action. Our Father has never allowed truth to be destroyed without His response.

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God and if He spared not the natural branches (the Jews) why should He spare the wild branches (the gentile church) which were grafted in? Those of us who know the mercies of the Lord and how they endureth forever should intercede on the basis of these divine merits and hopefully the judgment will be unto correction rather than unto death. Who the Lord loveth, He chasteneth. I believe this will actually happen so that the natural branches may be grafted back into the tree at the set time before Jesus returns. When the religious, apostate church comes to his senses like the prodigal son and sees how empty, filthy and desolate he has become apart from the Father, he will long for the Father’s house. Let us pray the door will still be open so the wayward brother can come home (to Heavenly Father, not that “holy father”).
Mark A. Steiner
The Church WILL be judged first. There will be two aspects. First, those who have the Blessed Hope and have made themselves ready for it will the caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and will then live forever with the Lord. The second aspect applies to a judgment of church-goers who do not have that Blessed Hope, apparently don’t want or need it, but believe they are good enough without this Hope. I wouldn’t wish the second choice on anyone, but don’t forget that Enoch walked with God for 300 years, prophesied of the Lord’s second coming with ten thousands of His saints and was judged worthy to be translated to Heaven. Today the opportunity to experience what Enoch did exists if only we will walk … Walk … WALK with Him in anticipation of that Blessed Hope of Titus 2:12-13. From – The Western Watchman

Amen. Interestingly, the word here translated “vapors”, in some translations as “columns” is sometimes translated in Hebrew as “palm trees.” Hmm. Palm trees of smoke. Why does that sound familiar? You’re entirely right, judgment begins with the household of God.

It’s amazing that anyone gets saved in America. You have the whore churches on one corner, where the parishoners are wasting their time for that community gathering where Christ isn’t preached. Then you got the replacement churches who deny that we are grafted into the vine and believe they replaced Israel. Then you got the unrepented churches — who want their ears tickled and don’t follow the Bible but make so many compromises for “ecumenical, evangelical” outreach — and almost have where do you go to fellowship in America
keep enduring folks,

Hello Brother Joseph.
Well said. I think, however, that it is important to recognize that though the Roman Catholic Church certainly has a great deal of entrenched and serious doctrinal error, much of the Protestant Church in the western world has sunk into apostasy all by itself. Many denominations are now on board with an anti-Israel bias, “Mother Jesus,” actively homosexual clergy, the creating of liturgies for same-sex “marriage,” and pluralistic salvation which even Catholicism rejects.
Though churches may vary in the specifics of their error, the root cause is always the same – substituting the doctrines of men for the doctrines of God.
I agree that God will not put up with this much longer because left unchecked, Jesus will certainly find no faith left on Earth when he comes.
This is all the more reason to “Keep looking up!”

Amazing that anyone gets saved in America. The whore churches are on one corner, which preach nothing true about Christ anyhow, then you got the replacement churches, who deny that they are grafted in the Olive Tree and think they replaced Israel. Then you got the compromising churches “ecumenical evangelicalism” who pal up with anyone to spread a lukewarm message of “G_D has a wonderful plan for your life” – not the truth that G_D offers you a chance to be forgiven your sins and escape the firey trials of an eternal hell. Then you got the believers who aren’t looking for the Blessed hope — and they say “oh they been saying Jesus is coming for 2000 years” –uh yeah — and those are the ones who should WAKE UP, they are not supposed to be in the dark – they are supposed to be “children of light”
keep enduring to the end – and Please be looking up

Patrick you are so right. Genesis 12:3 where G-d said those who do not bless the Jews is cursed, those who suport them and bless them is blessed and even the ones who do not care about them or have no opinion is still cursed. Romans tells us they were blinded for us hearthen so we could become sons of G-d..the time of the gentiles are all but over, and the story of the prodigal son is a parable we should realize as G-d always taught in them…the older son is the symbol of the Church, the younger son the Jew..the father as the FATHER. is the symbol of G-d the Father..who did not chase and beg the younger son to stay. BUT notice He was waiting for him and took him in, killed the best calf, gave him the signet ring and blessed him..and the older son, had a bad attitue, saying, hey, I stayed , worked hard and you never done that for me..Shame on the church,,the last two prophecis of the last days is apostasy and the hate for Jews world wide this time..and we see it..Everyime our Pres abuses Israel and tryies to make them give up everlasting Covenant land, we get trashed here in the US, now the oil which is killing, causing jobs to fall and every rotten thing. or a hurricane right to the day we do some curse to Israel. siding with G-d’s enemies, any of us, brings curses, beccause HE SAID SO ! doesn’t matter who believe’s G-d, it is still truth. Soon the rapture of TRUE believers, and then the ones left behind is going to be hell on earth. a terrible day..In John,the L-rd asked, why call ME L-rd and not obey my Fathers commands..if we believe , no sitting on any fence, we are either for HIM or against HIM and HE also told us to follow the laws of the land..the church helps the illegals break our laws and bring violence siding with the very ones G-d said would be cut off forever. they have love mixed up with justice..like when someday they all stand before HIM and hear, depart from me you men of Lawlessness, I never knew you. they not only hate the laws of the land but also obedience to G-ds laws which is our instrtution to live a holy life..how sad and millions in Hebrew means thousands. after all in Isaiah last three chapters HE says, I am coming and will destroy all my enemies and the enemies of Israel….He does not change,no shadow of turning, the same yesterday today and forever. He also says it is better to believe G-d than man..but men have throw out His word and the gospel which is the power to save.

dear Paw Creek
i am interested in ordering the benny hinn
material — but can find no form or instructions on your web ?page — i was never very sure about the man and of late am hearing many things detrimental about him. there are, also, things cropping up about kenneth copeland and his mentor oral roberts–both of whom have been around for ages. i guess i’m just wondering if all these things should just be taken wih a grain of salt. maybe just a few jealous peoples spewing garbage–eh?
i would welcome any sage advise from you —
thank you in advance
and
pray for the Peace of Jerusalem

i could be mistaken,but it looks to me as if The Vatican(the real center of power for false
CHRISTianity)has been set up from the beginning(by the sorry lord Satan himself, who else ?)
as a false flag to make Biblical CHRISTianity the target of attacks from both atheistic & religious fanatical heathens.
As if Roman Catholicism aka The Vatican aka The Papacy, is the sole representative of Biblical CHRISTianity(My apologies to the Real Children Of GOD inside the RCC, for there are).
The real danger is that, on the other hand, this situation would provide a false sense of security for the Evangelical Churches lulled into a comfortable feeling that ” All this has nothing to do with us ! See, we oppose Papists too !” Well, the world lumps all of us together as “CHRISTians” and It’s The NAME Of our LORD it blasphemes under the guise of denouncing The Vatican.
Remember these two top learned men : Gandhi the “Apostle of Non-violence” & lord Bertrand Russell of Liverpool mathematician emeritus; who, for all their GOD-GIVEN knowledge, had remained phonies until the end rejecting The GOSPEL OF JESUS-CHRIST under the pretext of anti-Vaticanism.
( i recommend to you lord BRoL’s “Why I am not a Christian”. For me, the learned mathematician is completely off the mark in his attack on CHRISTianity, pounding instead on the Papacy.)
Time for Protestantism too to realize that we have conducted ourselves as the Sethites in regard to the Cainites prior to The Flood. Until now.
