2 Peter 3:1-18

3:1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:

3:2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:

3:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:

3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

3:11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

3:15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;

3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

3:17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.

3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

Welcome back Pegalys; nice to hear from you. Is there a path to normality, and is that even a word?!

For anyone who was worried about a late arrival of the H1N1 flu vaccine, need not to worry - it will be available quite possibly the first week of October, which is less than just a few short weeks away. We can all breath a little easier now:

http://rawstory.com/news/afp/Govt_sees_early_delivery_of_flu_vac_09132009.html

How far will they go to make us take the shots...time will soon tell. I have noticed a parallel with people who have no issues about taking the vaccine also believe the official story of 911. Likewise, those who do not believe the official nonsense about 911, would rather die of the flu than take the vaccine. That's interesting - not sure what it may mean, but it is a consistent pattern.

Stay blessed and keep looking up.

Love and peace to all.

Two million 'patriotic' Americans marched on DC this weekend. Probably not too many in this crowd cares one iota about the wars and the blood being shed, but have only love for their own country. This link is from one of those patriotic people, but it has some interesting footage and wanted to share it for anyone who might be interested:

The drum beats for an Israeli strike on Iran are growing faster and louder while we hear reports of Netanyahu jetting off secretly to Russia, then Russia (Putin, not Medevev) issuing strong words of retaliation for aggression toward Iran.

Dear Ali,

Better now that I am blessed by your amazing presence. Thanks for asking my brother. It is quite remarkable that I was just thinking about you yesterday and wondering how everything is with you, and here you are. How was your fast, or are you still fasting?

I can't read about how bad things are in Iraq and Afghanistan and now with the possibility of the coming war with Iran without feeling saddened and ashamed by the situation for all the peoples of the region, and I am so thankful that we can come together in the name of love in spite of the world. This brings me great joy.

Thanks for the link and blessing me today, Ali. I hope your classes are going great and you can keep finding a little time to check in.

Love and prayers.

Beautiful pic, Ali. Indeed, the earth is still full of His glory. I enjoyed getting to know the women of your country and thanks for the link. They are a beautiful people that are more peaceful than the coalition that is beating the war drums louder and louder.

I read talks are presently being agreed upon and arranged between Iran and the six or seven nations that are preparing for more war. Chavez is allegedly financing Iran so the toughened sanctions placed on Iran are not as effective and thus the new US/NATO troops sent to Colombia. Russia is siding with Iran as will China most likely, especially now with the US imposing big tarriffs on imports of Chinese tires. China has vowed retaliation. It is usually not prudent to bite the hand that floats your economic debacle.

Next step is to discredit the IAEA, which ruled in Iran's favor recently:

http://www.ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=48435

...and voila, instant deja vu, and given the previous scenario to Afghanistan/Iraq, it won't be too much longer.

I love you my brother, and all your people. Please tell them. It sounds like the unrest with the opposition is still being waged, and it is all happening for a reason.

The birthing pains are increasing while the majority of Americans are still concerned with healthcare issues and the growing fomented hatred of the race issue in the US between the blacks and the whites. Everything that has happened in the world since back to the very beginning of time is playing a part in our current world to bring us to this point in time. A culmination of the ages of sorts. Can't quite explain it, but it feels right and it is almost completed. Harvest time.

The Iraqi shoe thrower is free and hailed as a hero who says he would do it again. He endured torture while imprisoned, and yet still says he would do it again.

The FDA approved the H1N1 vaccine today.

Keeping the love and the faith; and by His grace, the lamp filled with oil. This is my prayer for all who gather here - seen and unseen.

Greetings Ali,

I thought that was interesting news as well about the volcanoes in Russia; hasn't happened in over 55 years it said.

Your question is an interesting one, and my answer is a resounding YES! I am ready to meet our God. Like every sinner I am praying for mercy with His judgement, but I am so ready for an end to this system of things, Heaven on Earth cannot come quick enough for me. Imagine no strangers (unbelievers) living among us, no sorrow, no pain or sickness; only love, and peace and harmony. Yes, I am ready.

FF,

Four out of 12 months of Islamic calender are called in the scripture of Quran as 'Haram' meaning it is unlawful to fight during these months. Among the reasons could be the fact that (in the case of war) maybe with such a pause, 2 sides come into a peaceful solution to settle everything down. However, you see nowadays that no Islamic country really abide by this rule. Such a shame for these people.

You can not call yourself a man of faith and not abide by the scriptures, can you?

Keep the faith,

MAL 3:16 Then those who feared the LORD talked with each other, and the LORD listened and heard. A scroll of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the LORD and honored his name.

Amen.

Sandra, your words have so much power and wisdom in them, and I am so 'touched' by your love...in the midst of your sorrow. What a beautiful confession of faith to behold. Thank you for the special blessings and I am so thankful the Lord brought us together on this incredible journey; I cannot find the words to adequately express the joy other than our God is so good. His rewards, as in your love and fellowship, are priceless. Yes, this thing called love is a mighty powerful force.

John 17:20-23 (King James Version)
20Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
21That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
23I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Hallelujah and praises to our Savior Jesus Christ who was, and is and is to come.

I love our community of faith and all who enter here, so much.

Update on the H1N1 vaccine. Ewwww, the four distribution centers are as yet a secret. They may be busier, but our Lord already knows what they are going to do before they do it and He does not give us a spirit of fear. He is our secret weapon; His truth our sword. He is with us and this is why we need not fear.

Greetings,

Time will tell all things, but being prepared for anything may serve us well. I have not had a chance to view the two video clips in this link because my area has heavy cloud cover and the satellite transmission is lessened or something, but it is being posted in various places. Whether it is whistle blowing or genuine warning, I cannot presume to know. The implications of forced vaccinations brings to mind a mark of the beast...only those with the mark are allowed to buy, trade and sell. I think we are all agreed that there is an unseen spiritual mark of whom we serve, but maybe there is to be a physical mark as well. God will show us everything we need to know; what to do and when to do it, even putting the words in our mouth and glorifying His endtime church more than the beginning church. It is either going to get more revealing really soon, or the hype behind the vaccinations is merely an attempt at more control through fear.

...just a continuation of thoughts somewhat.

1 Thessalonians 5:3 (King James Version)
3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

George W. Bush wreaks havoc for eight long years, and then when he leaves office, there is a collective sigh of relief that it's over and believing that the worst is over, and then onto someone who promises 'change' and creating an false illusion of peace. Then sudden destruction comes; Babylon is fallen.

Whether the H1N1 virus is to be the undoing of our world as we think we know it, then surely their time grows so short.

Thanks for listening.

Revelation 7
1And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 2And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Revelation 9:3-4
3And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

Ephesians 1:13-23
13In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. 15Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: 18The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 19And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: 22And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

The name of the joint exercise in Israel 'Juniper Cobra' struck me as unusual because juniper is mentioned in the Bible, and Cobra of course is a serpent, a reptilian, a deceiver...so started doing a little research and found out that burning juniper wood was used for ritual purification of temples in ancient times (good or bad not sure), and of course is in the story of Elijah, whom the Lord says He will send us before His return, and I marvel at all His ways. Not done looking into juniper and snakes, but I would greatly enjoy any insight.

The silence in here is deafening compared to our world that is exploding. The agenda of the wicked was advanced today in a big way. They want people to live in fear for when people fear they are not trusting God, and there are a lot of scared people; lots of work to be done. They want us to think there is something bad coming our way, but they lie. All the time they lie. It will be a very trying time but God will raise a standard against the evil and the wicked are the ones who will be afraid and there will be no place for them to hide. The greatest show on earth.

Indeed the silence here is deafening regardless of whats happening in the world.
Speaking of Iran, there is a thin in line between Iran and the West that doesn't almost exist. If, I should rather say, when the time comes for confrontation, they are all equally guilty. Every single move Ahmadinajad takes is nothing but a show of his strong desire to start the war thereby hastening the coming of the Mahadi. On the other hand, the West doesn't seem to be happy even if, by any chance, what Iran is doing (the nuclear thing)to be transparent and lawful. They all want war, they all want destruction. They just stimulate each others desire for war. Thats what brings delight to their heart. At the end of the day it is the ordinary people that pay the price. There is no hope other than the intervention of God almighty who judges kings and bring His justice upon all nations.

War has always been used for population control, and I agree Annon, that all the nations' leaders want war; it is never the people. I wish the people wouldn't participate in it then there couldn't be any war. You know the elite would not have their blood shed. The 'elite' make up 1 percent of the population and control 95 percent of the world's wealth. Something very wrong with that picture. And still they want more; their greed knows no bounds. They want more control and their new world order secures it for them. The tower of bable plans were cut short as well and this will be no different other than it is the final battle.

I look forward to your post with your beliefs, Ali, and thanks for the great links. It is interesting, while the governments are becoming like one, so are we.

Very well said my brother Annon; you should post your thoughts more often. They become more transparent every day.

The first 250,000 H1N1 vaccines will be arriving soon...Oct. 5th the news is reporting. The MSM was showing the connection of the bird flu vaccine in the 70's to the syndrome called Guilliame-Barre (sp) in which nerves and muscles are paralyzed.

Ali, do you hear of plans in Malaysia for enforced vaccination? The US, London and France seem to be the first guinea pig nations. Time will tell.

Love and prayers.

I would just like to clarify that it is the ways of the evil ones that becomes more transparent every day - not Annon's thoughts. Their script very carefully managed and I am thankful that He gives us the eyes to see it and the ears to hear. Things are going to get even more interesting.

Good morning everyone, on this rainy Sunday AM (at least here in New York!) It's been forever, and was thinking about you guys and wanted to pop in and say hello.

I hope and pray all of you are doing well. I am doing great and have been so very busy in my work, but so blessed nonetheless. In a sense, God has brought many people into my life through work that I believe were meant to be there all along, whether to help them or vice versa.

It's been a wet, rainy summer, that's for sure! Second wettest on record. I think the sun was out for all of one week this summer, which was really gloomy. Lots of flooding, which was out of character for this area.

In New York, many people are frightened about the H1N1 of course, and they're recommending everyone get vaccinized. I highly doubt I will. People are also worried about that terrorist plot and some are saying another "9/11 was being plotted."

Just wanted to check in and let you guys know (not sure who is still here) that I'm still around, doing well and will be praying for you!

faithful forever said...

What a pleasant and most welcome surprise, Kelly. It is good to know that you are still around; it has been a long time. I am still here as you can see as no wild horses have been able to drag me away yet! (My apologies to everyone.)

It seems to me that the propaganda machine is still working like a charm on the masses, although some are starting to smell the rats, most I talk to are interested in the vaccination and most still believe Bin Laden was responsible for 911. An indoctrinated mind can be an impossible barrier to cross, but all things are possible with the Lord and we have to be patient with those that are lost the way the Lord is patient with us and not wanting any to perish. Those who are last will be first and there is hope for all. It is so good to hear from you and even better to know that you are doing well, and you are in my prayers also my sister in Christ. What a blessing to have you pop in and I hope you can stay around. Another '9/11 being plotted' is probably just about enough to make most NYers want to run for the hills. Even though it is just another lie.

This link is a recent 18-minute interview with David Icke in Amsterdam. I know he is 'controversial' but he speaks a lot of truth and his courage for speaking the truth I think says good things about him. He acknowledges openly that Mossad was behind 911, therefore he passes the litmus test with me:

A Dark Portfolio:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnLQHPlXC1Q

FF,

In Malaysia, I have not heard anything about vaccination. They have had 80 people dead so far because of this. However the number of infections are huge.

Keep the faith,
Ali.

faithful forever said...

Greetings Ali, from here in the belly of the beast (USA) to you afar in Malaysia. A very dark portfolio indeed and we have caused many nations to become corrupt with our drunkeness that has plagued this country since 'the settlers' arrival - greed, treachery and oppression covered up by lies of liberty and justice for all (democracy).

I just can't figure out if Ahmadinejad is making a stand as Saddam Hussein, or if he is only wanting it to appear so. Saddam somehow seemed more earnest in his attempts to comply where Ahmadinejad seems to want to increase tensions. Which always makes me suspicious because as we have said, they are one and the same and they all want war. Maybe Saddam really didn't want war and Ahmadinejad is motivated by bringing the Mahdi back. It is a complicated, complex world. I am thankful we can share it; truly thankful and blessed by your fellowship.

Do you mean you haven't heard about when vaccinations might be available or they are not discussed as a possibility at all? Are the huge numbers of infections disrupting anything like more closures and such again? I hope and pray you stay well my brother.

I wonder where that person is that was disappeared nazi-style at the G20 summit that was captured on video.

Thanks for the link. It was really interesting and I admire that man's courage for speaking. May God continue to turn his heart.

The news is reporting that "Facebook" has been forced to remove a survey about whether or not Obama should be killed. The 'birthers' have taken out television ads promoting their view of non-citizenery and the military is supposedly feeling backed against the wall from his administration because they are appearing too cautious about sending more troops thus appearing 'weak' and the web is being woven thicker all the time. I still believe we are reaching the culmination or a at least a major revelation and/or event. Do you feel that way, Ali? Do people in Malaysia feel that way, do you know?

Love and prayers.

Indeed they are all the same - with the same desire of destruction. October seems an interesting month when the 5+ 1 powers sit with Iran on October 1st day - what a great day to start the month. And Iran, interestingly, days before the meeting launched another high tech missile. And here we have the Saudis allowing their airspace for Israel to use when attacking Iran. Things are moving faster than we expect... and it seems that we are heading to the Great Day of the Lord.

Many people are experiencing trials on personal levels with increased frequency as well. A very trying time; a time like no other indeed and it is imperative to keep our feet planted firmly on the Rock even while the whole world spins and shakes. The intensity will increase and by God's grace and mercy, we will not only survive but thrive in ways we cannot begin to yet understand for it is to be sealed up until the time of the end, and there is a purpose for everything we are witnessing. And we need not fear. How amazingly awesome is the Lord God Almighty.

So much suffering and devastation from the quakes and tsumanis and Indonesia has had another quake this morning:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_indonesia_earthquake

Tomorrow is the big day for the big meeting, and you just can't help but wonder about the timing of it all. Can't help but stand in wonder and awe of the Lord and all His ways. He is real, this is real, and all that is happening is for a purpose. I believe it is very likely that the pale horse of Revelation has arrived or is close in coming. If so, 'things' will start to happen at an even more quickened pace than it is now. Hold on tight to our faith and never let go for anything.

Revelation 6:8 (King James Version)

8And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

His wrath is reserved for the wicked. We have to remember His promises and He has said the righteous will remain. Our Lord Himself prayed for us not to be taken out of the world, but rather delivered from evil.

There is always good news for those who worship Him; it is the sixth seal that is broken during this time in which an angel seals God's people in their foreheads. We will witness a lot of destruction, but God is in control of it ALL. Soon, may He send us Elijah. How amazing is this going to be...try to imagine and it will be better than that because our God is the Alpha and Omega.

Call upon the name of the Lord and give thanks and praise. Our redemption is drawing near. Rejoice and make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Be still my longing heart.

Many are saddened over the loss of revenue and now we are told that the loss may even hinder Obama's agenda. That is not likely and truth be told, this furthered the agenda in a big way.

Today is the 8th anniversary of the Afghanistan invasion (more prayers) with no 'progress' in site, rather a more dire, deteriorating and destructive war - which is progress to those who are fomenting it. We have killed more civilians than Taliban members, and this is the main objective of course in their crusade of bloodshed. My heart breaks into a million pieces when I hear people support it. I know polls are manipulated and manufactured, but unfortunately it is accurate with the general consensus of people in my area. Obama says we will not pull out and lowering troop levels is not an option. Someone tell me why it is not an option. There are always options and choices to be made. Lies and more lies on top of lies. If we pulled out, there would be no reason to fight and nothing to fight against.

The Federal Reserve is now telling us of their next financial crisis that will be in the commercial real estate market, and it will be 'painful' while indicators project the Dow will fall to 6,300 by year end. -whatever that means, but it doesn't sound too desirable for those that put their trust and faith in the markets. Some Persian Gulf states and other countries are quietly ditching the dollar as the world's strong currency. Not quite sure what a weaker dollar means but I know it's not good news and the bottom line is they are systematically taking down the US first and the whole world will follow in the wake of our destruction. Just as it was written so long ago. Soon, there will be less and less wiggle room for denial of witnessing the end to this fallen system of things. Every person in the whole world will be affected.

Pennsylvania is expecting snow and Nebraska had 17" dumped on them and Minnesota and the Dakotas have had snow already. Snow in October in these areas is not unheard of, but it is unusual and more atypical than normal.

Obama has sent 13,000 additional troops to Afghanistan (war is peace), and Karzai is in support of an additional 50,000 above that. They are saying we plan to be there for at least ten years. Very unlikely those plans will come to fruition. Only God knows, but I just cannot see God's plans taking that long to be fulfilled. That is just my very humble opinion based on what I feel in my heart.

Greetings Ali,

Their perversion and disgust reaches into every venue of our society, and unfortunately will continue until that new day when the Lord drinks wine with us in the Kingdom of His father.

Recently a Canadian soldier was so sickened by the abuse of Afghanistan children, he spoke out about it, and of course, was ruined for it. The article contained a picture of him and you could see the pain in his eyes of what he had witnessed. These satanists who do these horrible acts under the guise of christianity will surely be given the wrath of God and I for one can certainly understand and accept their destruction that is coming. They think nobody cares, but God very much cares and He knows their every thought, word and deed. May their time be short. The Erik Princes of the world surely are an abomination to our God.

'The History of Oil' should be required viewing by every person. It is very informative and sheds a lot of understanding to our current situation from a worldly perspective. Greed and evil have ruled this world for too long and while it is painful watching the depth of their depravity be revealed, it also serves a purpose and while there will not be any accountability from this system of things, there surely will be in the one that is coming. You are so right, Ali, evil has no boundaries whatsoever and the whole world is affected. Everything is so twisted, backwards and upside down that one has to wonder about Abbas speaking out against Hamas, and why nothing is ever done to these people who openly commit such dasterdly, dispicable acts in the name of God. 'Vengence is mine,' sayeth the Lord. He is our only hope in this hopeless world. But He is everything and all we need. What an amazing God we serve, and those who deny Him will soon bow their knee to Him.

The CDC reports that 11 more children in the US have died from H1N1. Given the fact that the nose spray contains the live virus and takes 10 days to 'take affect' this is curious timing to conspiracy laden minds and it would be interesting to know how many had been recently recently vaccinated. Reports say that an infected swine has been found in Minnesota - whatever that means since they tell us it is safe to consume infected pigs. What a world, what an unusual time of the world in which we live.

But God is good all the time. Give Him your thanks and praise today and forever.
