BLINDING ‘EM WITH SCIENCE

"If calculations of the newly discovered Higgs boson particle are correct, one day, tens of billions of years from now, the universe will disappear at the speed of light, replaced by a strange, alternative dimension, one theoretical physicist calls boring. 'It may be that the universe we live in is inherently unstable and at some point billions of years from now it's all going to get wiped out. This has to do with the Higgs energy field itself,' Joseph Lykken, with the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Ill., said. 'This calculation tells you that many tens of billions of years from now there'll be a catastrophe.'"

“Tens of billions of years from now....”  Will this give people a false sense of security, I don’t know. I am not sure if people pay them any heed, but it would stand to reason that as always, science contradicts God’s word.  If I didn’t believe in God and I read this, it would support my blindness.  They are right about one thing, however, that ‘it’s all going to get wiped out.’ 

2 Peter 3:10-13

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

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

And only the Father knows when.  Have no fear and have no doubt, the Kingdom of God is at hand.  Rejoice and give thanks. 

Our world continues to change before our eyes. An unusual event making the news is the super pod of dolphins off the coast of San Diego.  It’s reported that the swarm is seven miles long and five miles wide with an estimate of 100,000 dolphins.  Some say an earthquake is imminent and others equate it with the meteorite in Russia as the dolphins gathered on the same day.  Whatever the reason(s) or if it means anything is beyond me, but I do know that it is a rare occurrence.  While here in my neck of the woods, the drought continues and the weather is unprecedented again with 53 degree temperatures yesterday and the next night brings the coldest night of winter with wind chills up to 10 below.   Crazy, crazy is this time like no other, but watching prophecy unfold is simply amazing. 

METERORITES, FLY-BY ASTEROIDS, AND SOLAR WIND STREAMS

Unsettled geomagnetic conditions as Earth passes through solar wind stream

By chillymanjaro

– Posted on February 16, 2013Posted in: Geomagnetic storm

 

A weak interplanetary shock was registered by ACE spacecraft at 10:58 UTC on February 16, 2013. This event is not expected to bring widespread geomagnetic disturbances, however, it sparked aurora displays at very high latitudes. The Kp index is currently at 4, very close to minor geomagnetic storm level. Geomagnetic Sudden Impulse was observed at 12:10 UTC on February 16, 2013 with 10 nT Bz fluctuation.   

Our ever-changing world includes our ever-changing atmosphere.  There is a lot of activity in the Heavens lately.  Some say we are passing through a part of the Milky Way Galaxy that is littered with debris; some call it a dark rift which has a rather ominous sound to it, but God is in control and has a purpose for everything so there are no worries, only awe of our mighty God who has the power to shake the heavens and the earth.   There's a coronal hole on the sun that is almost constantly allowing solar wind to escape. The sun directly affects activity on earth and we are seeing a lot of activity on earth in the way of floods, earthquakes in diverse places and an increase in volcanic eruptions. 

Keep looking up for there is lots to watch, and wait for.
      Good things are always worth waiting for. 

Jude 1:21  Keep yourselves in the love of God; looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

STORMS, COMETS, QUAKES AND TSUNAMIS. OH MY!

New England states have had a snowstorm that was named ‘Nemo.’  I don’t ever recall a winter storm being named, but then everything in our world is changing.  Some have pointed out that Nemo backwards is Omen.  If it means anything or not, I do not know, but it is very unusual that authorities in the New England states have in essense imposed martial law by demanding everyone stay in their homes because roads, trains and airports are closed.  It’s being reported that some are threatening a year in jail or $1,000.00 fine for those who venture out.  Whether it is true or not, I don’t know and if it will be enforced remains to be seen.  I do have a hard time believing that it is being imposed because they care about the safety of the citizens.  Maybe it is an omen of martial law; a trial run so to speak.  It is a little ironic that New England, where the first settlers landed in search of freedoms, is the place where it is at least, and hopefully, temporarily suspended.  

We are in for a whole lot of change.  Some of it good, some not so good, but it all leads to the dawn of a new day and that makes it all a win-win situation even when it doesn’t appear to be.  Have no fear; only faith.

There are three known comets to make an appearance in our galaxy this year which is phenomenal.  The first one will fly by our earth this Thursday on the 15^th.  While they say it poses no threat to earth, it is the closest one in a very long time and the trajectory is being watched closely.  They say it will be close enough to take out satellites or space junk – yes, our atmosphere is just as polluted as the earth.  If the comet did collide with something, could the path of the comet be altered? 

The Pacific Ring of Fire rattled the earth with a 8.0 earthquake in the Solomon Islands that was followed by a tsunami.  It’s devastating to the inhabitants, but the world seemed to yawn at it like it is business as usual and not a big deal.  There has been a state of emergency declared because of the continuing large aftershocks.  I bet it is a big deal to those who are living it.

So, in our changing world, look up and rejoice for the passing away of this system of things is happening and the Lord has great and wondrous promises in store for the meek who will inherit the earth.  Rejoice for the Father is preparing to send His glorious Son back.

Welcome to the Apocalypse

More proof of the Flood

I WISH IT WOULD BUT DON’T THINK IT WILL

 The end of the world is getting a lot attention lately because the 21^st of December is quickly approaching.  It’s always interesting to hear what people say about it, and now to see what they are doing, such as the reports of people gathering and praying in groups in nations like Mexico, Russia, Cuba, China and others. Who these crowds are praying to and for what, only the one and only true God knows for sure.  He knows every single heart and its’ desire.  My heart desires the Lord.  My heart does not desire this world.  I wish this world would pass away on December 21, 2012, but I don’t think it will. 

When people talk about the end of the world, it is usually with fear and a strong sense of the unknown.  They don’t realize that the end of this system of things that is ruled by satan would be a very, very good thing.  That is, if your name is written in the book of life. 

I don’t like to hear people call it the end of the world.  It is really a new beginning.  It will be a restitution; a day of Jubilee, a day when the rightful owner takes back what is His.  It will be a day of restoration; restored back to paradise before satan was allowed to enter in.  What our God desires for a change; His will being done on earth.  It will be all about Jesus.  Finally, and so long in coming, He will finally be given His due. 

After everything He has done, giving His life so we may have eternal life, and the suffering He endured while totally blameless and sinless, His righteous judgment and vengeance will come at the perfectly appointed time, and I pray and yearn the day to be drawing near. 

While most of the world lives in fear of this world passing away, His people know there is a better day with a far better way to come.  A new day which consists of a thousand years of peace upon earth where He will be our God and we will be His people, and He will dwell among us.  It is all about Jesus.  And whether or not you believe in Him, and whether you want Him to receive the glory He so richly deserves.  What an awesome day it will be to see every knee bow to Him and hear every tongue confess He is God.

While the world prepares for the celebration of the newborn King, His people prepare a place in their hearts and minds for the rightful owner to take His throne.  Yes, come and adore Him as the arisen Savior of the world, and pray He is drawing nigh. Come Lord Jesus, come quickly and redeem your people who love and worship you.  All creation is groaning.

"I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT."

Me either and it is something you don't see every day, so I had to pass it along.  Enjoy the beauty of God's creation.  I would like to think it is a sign in the Heavens, but I am not sure of too much these days other than my love and devotion to the Saviour of the world, Jesus Christ.  All glory to the Creator of Heaven and Earth.   May His peace surround us in this most trying of times. 

AMAZING ICE HALO DISPLAY: Yesterday, sky watchers around the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, witnessed something amazing: A complex network of luminous arcs and rings surrounded the afternoon sun. "I've never seen anything quite like it," says eyewitness Bill Cooke, head of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office. Solar physicist David Hathaway snapped this picture of the display:

The apparition is almost certainly connected to hurricane Sandy. The core of the storm swept well north of Alabama, but Sandy's outer bands did pass over the area, leaving behind a thin haze of ice crystals in cirrus clouds. Sunlight shining through the crystals produced an unusually rich variety of ice halos.

"By my count, there are two sun dogs, a 22^o halo, a parahelic circle, an upper tangent arc, and a parry arc," says Chris Brightwell, who also photographed the display. "It was amazing."

"Very impressive," agreed onlooker Kyle Winkleman. "This was a once-in-a-decade event for our area."

If the display really was a result of Sandy, sky watchers might not have to wait a decade for the next show. Some researchers believe that superstorms will become more common in the years ahead as a result of climate change, creating new things both terrible and beautiful to see overhead. Sky watchers in the storm zone should remain alert for the unusual.

NOTHING LIKE THE WORD OF THE LORD

1 Peter 5:4-11

King James Version (KJV)

⁴ And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
⁵ Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
⁶ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
⁷ Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
⁹ Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
¹⁰ But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
¹¹ To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

In a world that is passing away, there is nothing like the word of the Lord to strengthen and comfort.  All praise and glory to God. 

Here we are on the edge of a potentially historic storm, with potential to change more than the landscape.  Fifty million people may be disenfranchised by inability to vote due to mass power outages, etc.  Seems like that is more of a concern than the potential loss of human life.  Currently, forty people have lost their lives to this storm and thousands affected by flooding.  More human suffering.  Prayers for all in its' path of destruction.

Keep your hearts and minds set on things above for He is our hope and our salvation.  And He is coming to reign.

²⁸ And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.  1 John 2:28 (KJV)

Stay blessed and keep looking up for our redemption is drawing nigh.  Come Lord Jesus, come quickly.  Don't listen to the scoffers or those who are already dead, because the Lord will return and He will not tarry.  Rejoice and make a glad sound unto the Lord.  He is our strength and our refuge, and whom shall we fear.  Nobody but our mighty, mighty Saviour.

Be encouraged and let not your heart be troubled for we know this world is going to pass away. God is going to do amazing things - really, really amazing things.

JOY UNSPEAKABLE

Let's see..we were being told Americans are going to riot if Obama gets into office again. Now they are saying if Obama doesn't get in, and people feel like the election has been stolen, there will be riots.  Obama allegedly promises to be more boisterous for the next debate.  Why was he not during the first debate?  They are working everything, and I mean everything for their purpose.  I don't want to give the illusion of caring about our political system because I do not.  I am done with their lies and corruption, their deceitfulness and manipulation.  I hear many people say when voting they try and figure out which candidate is the lesser of the two evils.  Voting for the 'perceived' lesser evil is still voting for evil.  They are all evil no matter how you perceive them.  They are all cut from the same cloth and all will do the bidding of Israel or their careers (or lives) are distinguished.

These are two very touchy subjects - politics and the nation of Israel.    These entities are intertwined and in America, you can't have one without the other.  I know this may anger and offend many people, but truth has a way of doing that.

Are they preparing to start an American Spring, or would it be an American Fall then?  Everything is so mixed up, upside down and twisted - just as the temporary rulers of the world, and we should know they are capable of anything.  Using the election to spark chaos, upheavel, bloodshed and discontent would be an easy task for their undertaking.

In all the confusion and doublespeak, know that by His grace and mercy, we are ade wise as serpents and gentle as doves and it is us who inherit the earth.

Peter 1:7-9 KJV
7  That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
8  Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though new ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9  Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

WWIII Is Coming Soon & Here's Why

STILL FULL OF HIS GLORY

The heavens are still full of His glory. This was captured over Norway last night and it is too beautiful not to share.  Just as God's love is too beautiful not to share. 

In this world of growing uncertainty and unrest, we know how great and mighty our God is, and how very deeply He loves His little flock.  We know God is working all things for the good for those who love Him and we can rest assured He will not forsake us.  Through our faith in His word we know we are watching prophecy unfold.  By the groaning in our Spirits we know we are ready for something brand new and different.  Something so much better than this world could ever offer. We have our hearts and minds set on things above.  We know our Redeemer is coming to redeem His people.

Rejoice and be glad.  Make a joyful noise unto the Lord and praise His holy name on high. Our King is coming to reign.

Psalm 89:5-8 (KJV)
5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Lord: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord?  who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?
7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.
8 O Lord God of hosts, who is a strong Lord like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?

Indeed, there is only one true God who created the heavens and the earth, and there is none like Him. 

WATCHING THE BATTLE

This ‘time like no other’ is bearing down quickly. The US has wasted no time reacting to the current manufactured crisis which was perpetrated to incite Muslims by sending out two destroyers bound for Libya.  For people who believe Islam is our biggest enemy, their belief although not accurate, has just been confirmed.  This event is going to change our world in ways we cannot imagine just like 911 did.  It will most likely be the spark to set WWIII on fire.

                                                                                                                     

We should be stocking up on our faith more than ever and praying to be counted worthy in some small way to escape all these things that are about to come upon the earth.  Just as the Lord parted the Red Sea, He has a plan for His people now. 

All praise and glory to God for His faithfulness and goodness to those who love Him.  What a mighty, mighty God and soon every knee will bow to Him.

It's about time to reap what we have sown.  For some this will be a most glorious reward, and not so much for others.  Our Lord says they will wish for death but death will not come.  Vengence is His.

A STRONG HOLD IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE

Nahum 1:1-13 (KJV)

1 The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.

² God is jealous, and the Lord revengeth; the Lord revengeth, and is furious; the Lord will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.
³ The Lord is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the Lord hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
⁴ He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
⁵ The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
⁶ Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.
⁷ The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.
⁸ But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
⁹ What do ye imagine against the Lord? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
¹⁰ For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
¹¹ There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the Lord, a wicked counsellor.
¹² Thus saith the Lord; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
¹³ For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.

ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN

Heaven. Can we really imagine heaven and what it is like. There are those people who claim to have had a glimpse of heaven after a near death experience and after this glimpse, they do not want to return to this life in the physical realm.  They talk of colors so vivid and never seen before, a peace so pure and complete they have never known, and sounds so beautiful they cannot describe.  They talk about a feeling of love so encompassing and a feeling of being at home. 

I cannot say if their stories are real or imaginations.  I do know that heaven exists and God has promised us when His kingdom comes, His will shall be done on earth as it is in heaven.  He has promised us there will be a day of rest; a thousand years of peace on earth.

Peace on earth.  Right now there is no peace on earth other than what the gracious Lord has bestowed on His people.  The world is full of lawlessness, hatred, war, corruption and greed - everything that is in opposition to the greatest gift of all:  love. 

I like to try to imagine what heaven on earth will be like.  I know it will be filled with love.  I know love is patient and kind, it is not boastful or selfish, it is not hurtful.  God tells us there will be no more tears.  We will know only joy.  Knowing there is a better day to come, fills me with renewed happiness every day because with each and every day that passes, brings us one more day closer to the great and awful day of our Lord Jesus Christ when He brings righteous judgment upon the whole world. 

There will be no place to hide for the evil ones, and those who belong to Him will be rejoicing and singing a new song.

Come Lord Jesus, come quickly.  Your bride awaits the wedding feast with patience and longing.  Everything good is well worth the wait.

Romans 11:36 KJV
For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever.  Amen.

Praise to the one and only true God, Jesus Christ the Saviour of the world.

HIS PROMISES ARE TRUE

Has an angel poured out a bowl of wrath? Has a horsemen been sent out from the Heavens?  Is this just the beginning of the sorrows?  How can we know...I don't know, but I do know that everything we are witnessing is prophetic.  This has all been written about so long ago and here we are here now with no turning back.  Just as when the labor pains begin in human childbirth, the pangs progress in intesity and duration.  A new world is being birthed, but I am not talking about the evil one's plan of a New World Order that we openly and frequently hear heads of nations speaking about, I am talking about "Heaven on Earth."  The Lord tells us there is a New Jerusalem coming and I believe all His words are true.  The current state of the world should be enough to substantiate His precious holy word, but there is still more blindness than there are those with eyes to see and ears to hear, but I think that is soon about to change too. I hope and pray for an outpouring of His holy spirit that I believe will take place, but I am content and patient with waiting on the Lord in all things.  There is only one true God of this world and soon all the world will see.  All glory and honor to Jesus Christ, the saviour of the world and our mighty, mighty Redeemer.  A better day is on the horizon and what a glorious day it will be.

There is so much going on in our world and my heart and prayers go out to all who are suffering from the wars, wildfires, floods and tornadoes, hunger, sickness as well as for the lost who do not know Jesus.

BE HOPEFUL; STAY ENCOURAGED

...for our Lord Jesus Christ is coming with all his saints, until then may our hearts be untroubled but filled with love and a peace that surpasses all human understanding. Our God is so great.
1 Thessalonians 3:12-13 (KJV)

12 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:
13 To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.

THE DAY OF PENTACOST

What a day that must have been when the Holy Spirit came down on the disciples and the worshippers who were gathered and awaiting 'help' that Jesus had promised after He ascended to His Father in Heaven.   Just a short ten days later they were given the Comforter, the Holy Spirit.

During this weekend of remembrance, remember what the Lord has done, is doing, and all that is yet to come and give thanks for He has promised He will never abandon us.  Of this we can be sure because He has spoken it.  Rejoice and make a glad sound unto the Lord who loves us more than we can imagine.

BOILING POINT



Our World Is On Fire

Boy, what a week this has been.  Events are taking place at an astounding pace lately from earthquakes to volcanoes to more rumors of war. 

Leon Panetta says 'everyday we are an inch away from war.'  Exactly how close is that?  I can't be sure but I think he is trying to say it could happen any day now.  Israel wants war.  War is a tool of the devil and is the exact opposite of Jesus' teaching of loving our enemies.  We should be expecting only bad fruit from the Synagogue of Satan because they are not capable of doing good, and they rule our world.

There are earthquake swarms across the globe that continue after a straight 8-day run of at least three moderate quakes daily that registered over 6.0 magnitude. Papau New Guinea has just had a 6.6 quake and the day has just begun.  The quakes in Sumatra on April 11th that seem to have started the uptick in earthquakes are said to have torn the ocean floor.  

The world's most dangerous earthquake in the world, Mt. Popo (nickname) in Mexico has erupted and others are on high alert.  The total volcanic eruptions recorded in 2011 was 50 eruptions.  We have already surpassed that amount in 2012.

The unrest and violence in Syria and Sudan has reached epic proportions and threats of civil war in both countries that will cause major blood shed.  There are so many new threats of war; Iran and the U.A.E. over a disputed island in the Persian Gulf, China and India are trading words and dirty glances over India's missile testing, and N. Korea is setting up allegedly for another test as well.  The world is reaching the boiling point on many fronts.  We can expect anything at this point. 

No need for panic. No need for fear.  No need to stock up on anything other than faith.  Faith and hope in the Lord for all His words are true and He has great things in store for those who love and worship Him.

Jude (KJV)
20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.  Amen.

PASSOVER IS ALWAYS PASSED OVER

Passover is usually thought of as only a Jewish celebration and thus is not only overlooked, but completely overshadowed with pagan symbolism and practices in the Christian religion. 

Most people seem to have a tendancy to limit Passover to the Exodus event when the Tribes of Israel while in captivity were instructed to put blood on their doors so they would be protected from the plague of the angel of death coming to Egypt on that night.  While that is a glorious event and an important message of hope for His people today being held in bondage, I believe it is also about everything the Lord did for us on that last Passover when He was sacrificed and crucified.  When His precious blood was spilled out, the Old Covenant was fulfilled and by His suffering and death we are given the gift of eternal life with the New Covenant even while we are sinners because He paid the price for us.

By His grace and by His blood, we are saved. Not by anything we have done, but only by what He has done.  Every day we should be on our knees in awe and wonder of His generous love for us, but with more praise and thanks during this time of remembrance; this time of Passover that is lost to the world and shows how lost the world really is.
