What Will You Give to God?

On Tuesday of this past week I received a wonderful 10 page testimony from a man who lives in Texas.  As I was reading about the amazing things God has done in his life, one incident he tersely mentioned jumped out at me.  It read: “He (God) spoke to me to stop watching “R” rated movies and stop listening to Rock and Roll.  My wife and I threw ‘in the trash’ all our Rock CD’s and R rated movies.  Our life continually got better from that point on.  God blessed us in everything we did.”  There is a powerful message behind those 4 little sentences—namely, obedience to God (which is always a pride-sacrifice of one’s own selfish desires) LEADS to blessings from God.

As I read his words, my mind shifted to a scene in my own life.  I was dancing before the Lord in my living room, spinning, arms raised, eyes closed, having a good-ole time worshipping the Lord to a Toby Mac song called “Made to Love”.  As it reached the bridge section, Toby was singing (repeating 3 times), “Anything, I would give up for you. Everything, I’d give it all away!  Oh, yeah!”  And I was singing along to those words with ALL my heart, when suddenly I heard God’s serious voice speak to me in my spirit, “Alright son, get rid of ALL your country & rock CD’s, for you don’t need them anymore.”  Woah, talk about stopping a man dead in his dancing tracks!  I stood there in shock for a long moment (was He going to say something else? … just silence) so I sat down gingerly on the couch to consider His words.

For over a decade country music had been my life.  I even moved to Nashville to be a country music star in December 1996.  And I had amassed over 150 CD’s of my favorite albums throughout the years.  Now just get rid of them?  Really?  But then I thought about how lately when I played a secular CD in my truck I could feel its lyrics grieving my spirit.  As I was thinking things over, I could sense God’s presence intently watching me.  I knew it was decision time!  What was I going to do?  Would I obey Him and put truth to the lyrics I was just singing, or would I disobey Him (holding on to my idol) and make my singing nothing but meaningless lip-service?  Was our relationship going to grow or was it about to hit a wall?  I made my choice … a lifetime of CD’s would go!  And they did.  And my relationship with our Heavenly Father blossomed to a new level of intimacy.

I'm reminded of Christ's words: "Whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple" (Luke 14:33).  Wow!  There were 4 more sentences concluding this brief portion of the man’s testimony I was reading this week, and they sum up this blog’s message better then I can: “Have you ever had a desire of the Heart.  If you have, don’t be afraid to lay it down for Christ if called to do so.  He likes us to step out in faith and give to Him the things that we hold closer than Him in our hearts.  The gain is much greater than the loss.”  Amen.


In Christ’s love,

Whosoever Shall Call Upon the Name of the Lord

Having been enlightened to the truth of God’s holy Word, I’m always a little perplexed (even slightly perturbed) when I see and hear the following ambiguous words of the Apostle Paul's trumpeted continually in churchianity: “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).  What does that mean?  Am I supposed to suck in a big breath of air and shout out ‘JESUS!’ and then I’m saved (on my way to obtaining eternal life)?  Do I do that just once?  Or do I need to do it periodically?  Do you understand how confusing this one little sentence (dangerously plucked and isolated out of one of Paul’s letters) must be to willful sinners who are desiring to hear the truth of God’s Word concerning what they must DO to obtain eternal life (be saved)?

Here’s the reason for my aggravation; because in God’s Word, Jesus (the Son of God himself!) answered the very question of ‘what MUST I DO to obtain eternal life (be saved)?’ several times in Scripture, and his self-explanatory, clear cut answer I NEVER HEAR SPOKEN in churchianity!  Are you serious?  What’s the deal?  Why is that?  Do you know Christ’s answer to the all-important question?  It was: “IF thou wilt enter into life (be saved), KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS!” (Matthew 19:17).  See how easy those words are to comprehend?  A child can understand them!  Those words don’t allow for one single drop of confusion in the listener’s ear!  Stop stealing and start giving, stop lying and start telling the truth, stop living sexually immoral, stop coveting and idolizing dirt possessions, rest the Sabbath day, and on and on with God’s 10 Love Commandments; and then CONTINUE living in that manner until your last breath.  ALL OF THAT is comprised and understood instantly in the phrase “KEEP the COMMANDMENTS”.  In other words, if you want to obtain eternal life (be saved) … STOP WILFULLY SINNING!  Or as Jesus also once put it: “Go and sin no more!” (John 8:11).

Now obviously, since all of God’s Word is inspired of God, Paul’s words above do not contradict Jesus’ words.  And in fact, it doesn’t take long in perusing Paul’s letters to know he understood FULLY what Christ said was true, and even preached it himself: “For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the DOERS of the LAW (the 10 Love Commandments) shall be justified” (Romans 2:13).  And with a little more searching in Paul’s writings we find a clear explanation of what he meant by the phrase 'call upon the Lord': “Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that CALL ON THE LORD out of a PURE HEART” (II Timothy 2:22).  Do you see?  By saying ‘Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved’ Paul was describing the heart of someone who genuinely desires to turn from their sins, which means they desire to obey God’s commandments.  Makes perfect sense now doesn’t it?

But ironically, I also NEVER hear Paul's words (written to Timothy above) used in churchianity today to help explain the other ones they trumpet ubiquitously.  So what's up? What's going on?  Why not just speak in plain language to folks what THEY MUST DO to obtain eternal life, and let the pure seed of God’s Word fall on whatever ground (hearts) it finds?  IF you want to obtain eternal life (meaning if you want to be saved) … KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS!  Come on preachers, you can do it!  You too are allowed to speak the beautiful, holy, life-giving words of the Son of God.  Stop beating around the bush like a snake!




May we all learn to embrace, love, and OBEY Christ’s words,

40 Week Pregnancy

Those of you who have read the book I wrote know the single greatest prophetic TIME revelation the Lord has given me is the fact that Jesus Christ DIED on the cross during Earth’s 4,000 year (counted from Creation).  The reason this information is so profound is 1; it verifies God’s 7 day (7,000 solar year) time plan for planet Earth — with the millennial Sabbath reign of Jesus Christ being years 6,000 to 7,000 — is still fully intact for it confirms year 6,000 hasn’t arrived yet, and 2; it greatly helps us to know WHEN Christ’s rapturous return will be “even at the doors” (Matthew 24:33) because we can easily make an educated guess now that year 6,000 will arrive sometime around the year AD 2028.

In my book, I reveal quite a few times where God secretly prophesied this ‘timing truth’ about the Messiah’s death; thus, I have no intentions on rewriting the book in this blog.  But for those of you who haven't read the book, I will point out God's main prophecy to this concern: Around 2000 BC He told Abraham, “Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them 400 years … afterward shall they come out with great substance” (Genesis 15:13-14).  This prophecy was about Abraham’s future descendants (the Israelites) who God would place in bondage for 400 years in Egypt before raising up the man Moses to lead them out.  But what was this about?  Why did God want to do this?  And why was it SO important to God that He told Abraham about it 600 years beforehand!  Why did God choose 400 years?  Why not some other number?  Is God nuts?  Or does He just get some strange kick out of doing very specific things for no reason?

Well, if you’ve read my book, you know this ENTIRE Israelite story was intended by God to be one massive secret prophetic story concerning the deliverance He would work through a Messiah in delivering mankind’s souls out of their bondage to sin!  Moses was a prophetic picture of Jesus Christ!  Only after FULLY digesting this amazing truth about the Israelite’s story will you be able to understand, without a shadow of a doubt, the reason God chose to deliver the Israelites after precisely 400 years was because it too was intended to be secret prophetic information about the Messiah, revealing the fact that he would deliver mankind’s souls out of bondage to sin during year 4,000!  If you would like a crash course in this stunning revelation, watch the “Moses & the Israelites (how to obtain eternal life)” video HERE.

This brings me to be able to share with you now what God revealed to me on Monday, June 27, 2011 of this past week.  On that day, I learned the average length of a woman’s pregnancy is 40 weeks, and God spoke instantly!  (Please understand in God's diversely created animal kingdom He determined many different lengths of time for mothers' pregnancies.)  So WHY did God choose 40 weeks for 'conception to deliverary' of a human baby (spirit child)?  Because with every baby born from Eve to Mary (and even still today! ... even your birth!!!) God was secretly declaring the TIME of mankind’s DELIVERY from sin would be year 4,000 through a Messiah (who is Christ our Lord) who would arrive as a baby.

The Invisible War

It’s really impossible for me to overstate the gravity of the situation we are ALL facing as human beings (spirit children of God) living here on planet Earth. But friend, to put it pointblank, we are in a war!!! Do you realize that? And I’m not talking about some little mamsy-pamsy scuffle with no real purpose or significance of outcome; I’m talking about an ALL OUT struggle with the zenith of intent and resulting conclusion. And do you know what it’s about? It’s over the control of your soul and WHERE it will spend all of eternity — namely, heaven or hell!

But here is the worst part about this battle … it is INVISIBLE! In other words, the enemy can’t be seen!!! How frightening is that? In fact, one of the adversary’s biggest weapons is to convince you he doesn’t even exist! And it’s a death blow to all those who believe this lie, for how can you possibly fight an enemy (or a war for that matter) that you don’t even believe exists? You can’t! You won’t! And you will lose!

This week I came across a YouTube video of a man named Howard Pittman (who had a NDE back in 1979) and I was led to make it the focal point of this week’s blog. It is a SHOCKINGLY detailed behind-the-scenes look at our enemy Satan and his demonic cohorts, revealing how and where they work; thus, it would be VERY beneficial for you to digest this information into your spirit. It’s an hour long, but it is worth every viewing minute in order to make you more aware of your invisible enemy, the dire battle you are in, and how to conquer and win! There’s even a part where Howard’s angel reveals to him how many people made it to heaven (won the war) out of 2,000, during the time he was having his NDE!

I pray you will watch.

The Love of Money Video

This week I uploaded my latest video creation entitled “Love of Money”.  As I worked on the video for the past month, my head would spin day and night with things I thought I needed to say in it.  But all of a sudden on Wednesday afternoon, when I reached a certain point in the video, it was like I felt God tap me on the shoulder and say, “That’s it, son … it’s done!  I was so surprised!  I was convinced He wanted me to labor on, trying to explain things further and further.  But as I stood back and looked at what had been created, it was then I saw the simple beauty and completeness of the video’s message.  And it was very cool indeed!  So I’m using this week’s blog mostly for the purpose of making you aware of the video and providing you with a link to where you can view it.

Listen, I understand Paul’s divinely inspired phrase “the love of money is the root of ALL evil” (I Timothy 6:10) is not a popular message in today’s churchianity world, because it hits people right in the core of their spirits with the truth of the sin battle we all face.  That being said, it should be blatantly recognizable to you then that a discussion on this topic (no matter how uncomfortable) is of PARAMOUNT importance, for God’s Word clearly reveals if we do not REPENT (turn from our evil ways) our souls will perish in hellfire!

Therefore, I humbly urge you to view the Love of Money video and take its message to heart. Ponder its points awhile and then spend a little time doing some HONEST investigation into your own spirit, determining what you love.  Nothing could be more important then your reaction to the video.  If you discover you love money, then friend it’s decision time for you. You can roll your eyes and say, “Hrmpf … whatever!”  And then go right on living your money-loving, prideful, God-hating life, which will end in unimaginable torment for your soul. Or you can sit back, take a deep breath, and say, “God, I need to change! Please help me learn how to love you!”  And then get up and purpose in your heart that you are going to make changes in your life (with respect to what you value and how you live) so that you start thinking, speaking, and doing the deeds that prove you love God, which will end in eternal joy for your soul.

In Your Patience Possess Ye Your Souls

The day the disciples asked Jesus ‘What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the age’ he spoke a short, but powerful, little sentence that forever loomed large in beautifully summarizing what WE (MANKIND) MUST DO to obtain eternal life; “In your patience possess ye your souls” (Luke 21:19).  The word ‘patience’ was translated from the Greek word ‘hypomonē’ meaning: persevere, endurance.  And the word ‘possess’ was translated from the Greek word ‘ktaomai’ meaning: to get, gain, or obtain.  In other words, for us to gain (or obtain) eternal life for our soul, we must first endure (or persevere) here on Earth.  But HOW do we do that?  What did Christ mean by this admonition?

Thankfully, Christ explained his words through John the Revelator, inspiring him to write: “HERE is the PATIENCE of the saints: HERE are they that KEEP the COMMANDMENTS of GOD, and the faith (love) of Jesus” (The Revelation 14:12).  Oh, my!  It’s the 10 Love Commandments, again!!!  Friend, a believer's ‘patience’ is demonstrated by them ‘continuing to think, speak, and do the deeds of love' which is to obey the 10 Love Commandments.  So Jesus was saying, "In your (keeping of the 10 Love Commandments) possess ye your souls" meaning if we prove we have repented of our sins by continuing to do good, we will one day reap eternal life for our soul.

Not surprisingly, Paul wrote this very same thing: “Who (Jesus) will render to every man according to his deeds: To them who by PATIENT CONTINUANCE in WELL DOING seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil … but glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good … for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the DOERS of the law shall be justified” (Romans 2:6-13).  Really, could it be any clearer?

Friend, if you still have willful sin in your heart (which is pride manifested by greed and sexual immorality) I’m begging you to clean it up!  For there’s heaven to gain or hell to pay in your future.  And it’s your choice!  This earthly house of cards (age of sin) is coming down, for God’s end game is already in full swing.  There’s glistening streams in babbling brooks where birds sing continual lullabies, or there’s rock walls in blackened pits where sinners scream in continual agony.  Where do you want to spend eternity?  It’s your choice!  In your patience possess ye your souls.



Lord, help us ALL to love continually,

God Has Not Appointed Us to Wrath

Here is a verse of Scripture the “pretrib rapture” liars trumpet ubiquitously today in an effort to sell the world on their deception: “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him” (I Thessalonians 5:9-10).  Allow me to expose their gross error in interpreting this passage of Scripture.

First of all, notice who wrote these words … IT WAS PAUL!!!  The man I wrote about in last week’s blog who absolutely knew the “gathering together (rapture)” of the saints (including himself!) to meet Christ in the air at his return would NOT occur until the “man of sin (Antichrist) first came onto the world seen and carried out ALL his prophesied evil.  How did Paul know this was true?  Because the disciples had told him what Christ had said the day they asked him, “What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” (Matthew 24:3) … To which Jesus responded by listing a whole bunch of calamities, the coming of the Antichrist who would bring on Great Tribulation, and then said, “Immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And THEN shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven…and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect (believers) from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other” (Matthew 24:29-31).

Let me just be frank about the Apostle Paul, my friend; if you had lived in Paul’s day and walked up to him and said, “Hey Paul, did you know Jesus is going to return and rapture (gather up) his believers from all over the Earth BEFORE the Antichrist’s Great Tribulation period?” … he would have probably looked you in the eye and said, “Are you an idiot?  What demon told you such nonsense?  Jesus Christ is only coming back ONE TIME to gather his elect together, and that’s at the VERY END of this age of sin!”  So what about Paul’s “wrath” verse above?  What did he mean by those words?

The answer is simple: A man of Paul’s conviction surely knew the Scriptures well (Old Testament only at that time!) and therefore he knew the words of the prophet Isaiah concerning the day of the Lord’s return: “Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with WRATH and FIERCE ANGER, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible…Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the WRATH of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his FIERCE ANGER” (Isaiah 13:9-13).  Do you see?  Friend, the DAY of the LORD’S WRATH is the DAY OF HIS SECOND COMING!!!  And when is that day?  It is exactly when Jesus Christ said, “immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days”.  Notice Isaiah mentions the sun being darkened, the moon and stars not giving their light, and the heavens shaking?  Jesus was referring to Isaiah’s words when he described the day of his return (read them again in paragraph #2 above) and Paul was too when he spoke about the SAME DAY as the “day of the Lord’s wrath”.

Do you now see the gross error of today’s “pretrib rapture” liars concerning Paul’s “wrath” verse?  They are trying to make you think the Great Tribulation period is the time of God’s Wrath, when it is really only the time “immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days” on the day Jesus Christ returns to gather up (rapture) his elect.  I tell you the truth, when Paul wrote “God hath not appointed us (the believers) to wrath” he was referring to that great day of Christ’s Second Coming when the whole Earth will burn and ALL the beast-marked wicked people will suffer the wrath of God by being destroyed in fire (which will cast their disobedient souls into hell) while the righteous will not suffer God’s wrath because they will be “caught up” into the air to be safe with the Lord forevermore.  Hallelujah.



Come quickly precious Lord Jesus,
