That's according to the information I read on one of the videos. That's so odd! <br />Now Consider this...It happened in Nashville instead of the thousands of cities in America, I conclude that this whole spectacular show that amazed the Nashville and area residents was a messaged specifically intended for one man to notice and think about. That's you Gabriel!!!

Oh, and that part about the "strangers" you talked about reminded me of a song I really like that echoes Gabriel's (really God's) message/warning to mankind. You may not like the music style/genre but the lyrics are solid! The song is called "Beautiful Stranger" by Rebecca St. James. Please check it out on YouTube and listen to the words carefully. You too Gabriel.ramseyrahalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864904081740312655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-78900368100081172192012-08-11T06:14:59.308-05:002012-08-11T06:14:59.308-05:00No, I haven't watched it, cause I dont have fa...No, I haven't watched it, cause I dont have fast enough internet. I will put it on my list for the next time I'm at a fast connection. <br /><br />Thanks for your honesty brother in confessing this at least. We ALL screw up, believe me, I'm Chief!!! Maybe it could have been avoided, who knows? Or maybe it could have been God's sovereign will (what HAS to happen, not that He wants it to!) which cannot be changed. For as it says, his ways are different from ours, and he has his reasons that we cant comprehend, even if he explained them to us!ramseyrahalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864904081740312655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-56381805581429637602012-08-06T11:14:08.500-05:002012-08-06T11:14:08.500-05:00Ramsey, did you get a chance to watch the short &q...Ramsey, did you get a chance to watch the short "Nashville Heat Lightning" video I linked at the end of this blog, from that very night July 19-20, 2012 here in Nashville? Man, it was CRAZY! I don't ever remember seeing heat lightning flashing that constantly and ALL NIGHT LONG! It was like a strobe light, flashing. Check it out. Scary. <br /><br />My spirit just knew something was wrong, and yet sadly I'm ashamed to admit I didn't hit my knees in prayer. I saw this warning hours before James committed the horrible deed. He was probably gathering all his weapons together, ammo, at the time, sitting contemplating, booby trapping his apartment, etc..etc. It breaks my heart to think that if I would have stopped everything I was doing, got down on my knees, and started interceding, maybe some angels would have came and pushed back the demons that were tormenting James' mind that night. Maybe the whole horrible deal would have been avoided. God forgive me if I messed up! And God help me ... I WON'T DO IT AGAIN!!!Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18304394972214647840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-43588746588296480272012-08-06T05:47:51.760-05:002012-08-06T05:47:51.760-05:00Yes, the enemy is in it all, laboring day and nigh...Yes, the enemy is in it all, laboring day and night to disqualify us from God's salvation. Yet if you look at ordinary life, for most people, that enemy isn't even part of the equation! <br /><br />I remember John Bunyan's hell experience when he was a young man, he was talking to a devil and a lost soul. The devil was having a great time torturing the soul by reminding him of memories on earth -- the times and opportunities in which he could have received the salvation, but didn't. He said:<br /><br />"You know you had salvation offered to you, but you refused it. How then can you complain of being damned? I have more of a reason to complain than you, because I entered into hell as soon as I sinned. You had salvation offered you and forgiveness was often presented to you; but I never had any mercy offered to me but was consigned as soon as I had sinned to everlasting punishment. If I received the offer of salvation, I would never have rejected it as you have. And it would have been better for you that you had never received the offer of it either because damnation would have been easier for you. Who do you think should pity you who would be damned in spite of heaven itself?"<br /><br />The soul begged for the devil to stop, and then started blaming the devil for bringing him there because of his temptations. Look at the devil's reply:<br /><br />"It was my business to draw you here as you have often been told by your preachers. They told you plainly enough that we sought your ruin, going around continually like roaring lions, seeking whom we could devour; and I was often afraid that you would believe them, as several did, to our great disappointment. But you were willing to do what we would have you to do and since you have done our work, it is but reasonable that we should pay you your wages."<br /><br />John Bunyan's account may be true or not (although there was nothing in his life story to indicate that he had any reason to lie), but that the enemy of our soul is this deceitful is in the Bible. Indeed, he has 6,000 years of experience under his belt, and I'm feeling he's going to use all that experience as we near the end -- because it's his end and he feels the need to hurry up and pull down more souls. So this James Holmes incident and all the hatred and people mistreating other people might become more frequent in the next decade. But the Lord said he will be building an army of sons and daughters during the end times to counter that, so even though it's quite frightening what will or might take place, we can find comfort in His words. Oh, how sweet it is to be in there meeting Him! And how sweet it is pleasing God like Gabriel is doing influencing souls, because like he said in his book each soul, each stranger that we meet in life, his soul is extremely precious:<br /><br />Remember Jesus fumed, “WHAT shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:37). Friend, there is nothing you can give in exchange for your soul!!! One spirit (soul) is worth more than all the dirt on planet Earth! It is BY FAR the most valuable thing YOU possess, and yet most people treat it as if it is worthless."<br /><br />God bless you, brother.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-37590424447217829172012-08-06T01:23:41.752-05:002012-08-06T01:23:41.752-05:00Amen Chris! I love the way you've analyzed all...Amen Chris! I love the way you've analyzed all this and have looked at the big picture. The Devil (and his host of demons) knows well what he's doing. He understands the Salvation Equation, the 10 Love Commandments, the whole deal! He knows exactly what it takes to disqualify us from God's salvation, which is disobeying his holy 10 Love Commandments and leads people deceivingly along that path. After all, he does have nearly 6000 years experience with billions of souls under his belt! So this double deal that your talking about can be expected from this dangerous foe. And you're so right, one doesn't have to actually do the act of killing as indulging in the thought of it is the same sin! Also as Jesus mentioned, just hating someone is the same as killing them physically! So if we hate a group of people, we are just as guilty as this person for massacre on judgement day! It's just another crafty trap set up by satan and sadly, yes, many are hating this man and sinning just by doing so, heading on the very same path, while they should fear God and worry about their own eternal destiny!ramseyrahalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864904081740312655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-90769185935230269742012-08-06T01:18:57.465-05:002012-08-06T01:18:57.465-05:00Amen brother Gabriel.

I hope they realize that even though they feel their anger and hatred is righteous, it is really satans trap for them, hook line and sinker!ramseyrahalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864904081740312655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-53456322689623409272012-08-06T01:10:09.148-05:002012-08-06T01:10:09.148-05:00Amen Chris.

Also, let's not forget other Biblical events where the weather changed and got dark and stormy just before something terrible happens. The greatest example is the crucifixion as it got dark at noon against all odds in a region where the weather is predictable during that time of year in tge drought season (I live in this region!). All the people in the Jerusalem area knew that something terrible was going to happen that day. Another is the prophesied second return of Jesus. There may be other examples but I just cant think of any... I thought this happened in the story of Noah and Sodom but I checked it out and it didnt.ramseyrahalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864904081740312655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-29927806204241306022012-08-05T11:06:44.288-05:002012-08-05T11:06:44.288-05:00You got it Chris ... sinful deeds beget more sin (...You got it Chris ... sinful deeds beget more sin (death), and righteous deeds beget more righteousness (life). This is what Jesus' parable of the talents is really about, and I cover this in depth on pages 327-333 of my book.<br /><br />My heart goes out to this young boy, who was overcome by a murderous spirit. We need to realize, we cannot do ANYTHING for those who have passed on, their time has come and gone, and thus their Judgment Day is set! But for those who still live (even this young murderer) my prayers will ALWAYS be with, for the heart God has given me just longs that NO ONE would perish but that all would come to repentance and obtain eternal life.Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18304394972214647840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-69175688085946191832012-07-23T16:03:27.637-05:002012-07-23T16:03:27.637-05:00People are so angry they can't help themselves...People are so angry they can't help themselves say all sorts of things (sadistic ideas, for instance) about what to do with this man. It's this sinning with thoughts that the devil delights in, because he knows it differs very little from actually committing them, as written in the Bible. How efficient it seems for the enemy of our soul to cause just one man to commit something like this and let the spirit of it spread and affect many souls - now developed as a spirit of unforgiveness, sadness, revenge, etc.<br /><br />I happened to watch the Jonestown video several months ago, wherein in the middle of a sunny day just before they committed that horrible act the sky suddenly darkened and ominous clouds descended, in the same manner that you describe how the weather that night in Tennessee relates to the shooting.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-29273052509101242912012-07-22T10:01:38.641-05:002012-07-22T10:01:38.641-05:00They are incredible! : ))They are incredible! : ))Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18304394972214647840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1623047928253896621.post-19287668686649148542012-07-21T15:21:27.706-05:002012-07-21T15:21:27.706-05:00The truth is that if you are out of the presence o...The truth is that if you are out of the presence of God...then you are instantly in the chaotic sphere of evil, which is satan. We all are struggling with pride and faith in Christ, but this guy has crossed the line with his unempathic demon possessed action and i pray God has mercy on him and all of us... And don't forget that HE knows our thoughts, intents, and motives, so whether we know it or not, we have no excuse for our behaviour ( Hebrew 4:12, KJV).
