Peru Turning to God

So, it would seem that the fire is getting stoked in Peru.

A Peruvian friend of mine just informed me that his church in Lima has started 24/7 prayer and worship, sparked into life by recent world events.  The people there, overwhelmingly Roman Catholic, are seeing the signs of the times, smelling the coffee, and doing what every person on Earth who calls themselves by the name of Christ should be doing - repenting, praying and fasting.

You ask, "Why should I spend perfectly good time acting like an old woman, crying out to some deity, in an age where we have unequivocally proven that God does not exist?"  My answer, after 40 years of considering just that, is that the only thing that we have unequivocally proven is that we don't know squat, we don't know much more about what we think we know than we knew 2000 years ago.  It's a matter of honesty, really.

Let's consider the preponderance of evidence proving the existence of ETs.  Thousands upon thousands of individuals claiming abduction, hundreds of government officials, behind the scenes, admitting that THEY are certain that we are being visited, studied, impregnated, experimented upon, thousands of videos of UFO sightings.  So ARE we being visited by aliens from other galaxies?  Not according to the physicists that have been studying the video archives of UFOs.

Almost universally, and for very logical reasons, their response is that we are being visited by beings from other DIMENSIONS!  The UFOs do things that are completely impossible in our dimension, such as going from 0 to 16,000mph in seconds (think hamburger inside the ships), performing 90 degree turns while flying at very high speeds (without slowing down), materializing and de-materializing in a split second.  Where would they go if they de-materialized in thin air?  The only logical answer is to another dimension.  Physicists have now determined that there exist at least 10 dimensions.  Oddly, that concurs with the Holy Bible.  The biblical verbiage being heavens, which. by description, equal dimensions.  That's interesting, isn't it?

Chuck Messler has an excellent website that, if visited, and thoroughly investigated by non-believers, could very well make believers out of them by itself, it's that good.  Chuck, very convincingly describes in great detail, who and what he believes these "aliens" to be, and why he has come to these conclusions.  I'm convinced.  His explanations make perfect sense.

So we're talking about Nephilim, or giants, or demons, or angels, or cheribim.  In a huge percentage of the abduction cases, sexually-oriented experiments are conducted upon the women "victims".  Why the propensity for this sort of thing?  Are they "aliens" doing a cross-breeding program to come up with aliens that can live in our biosphere?  Or is it just as likely that a rehash of the oft repeated theme of the gods coming down and taking wives from among the sons of men is occurring?  In cultures around the world, there are legends that look suspiciously like the biblical narrative regarding "the sons of God" coming down and taking wives from among the sons of men.  Think Hercules, the son of Zeus, for instance.  There are many, many more almost exactly like it.  Could it be that the angels of God, who most often have appeared in physical bodies.  And if they did that, wouldn't their sons be incredible individuals?  Yes, they would be amazing, but not human.

Jesus Christ came, lived, bled and died exclusively for the human race, that would exclude the hybrid angel/human individuals.

Instapundit, An Eye-Opening Experience

Recently, I was re-introduced to a site called Instapundit.com.  Now everyone knows what "insta" means, but do you know what pundit means?  Audioenglish.net defines a pundit as • PUNDIT (noun)

  The noun PUNDIT has 1 sense:

1. someone who has been admitted to membership in a scholarly field

This site is a serious eye-opener.  You will wake up the next day, and not recognize yourself, you will have learned so many alarming, amazing things about things of national importance, I did, and I'm a smart guy.  So check it out for ya'sef, homey.

Getting back to...

So, I'm working on creating another blog.  I wrote an article on it a little while ago.  It's called Survive, The Magazine for those of us who aren't going to lay down and die.  Pretty macho, eh?  Yeah, I think so too.

So the thing is, I'm trying to decide how to go about it.  I really want to create an online magazine, complete with multiple articles per month.  The purpose is to provide another mode for folks to prepare for what is doubtless around the bend, and help people survive the ordeal.  I see us, the USA, as living in a dream state, not living in reality.  We have lived many decades, propped up, trodding on the heads and shoulders of the "lesser" nations.  I suspect that the shtuff is going to hit the fan shortly.

I want to be ready-ish, and in making MY preparations, I intend to drag as many along for the ride as possible.  I've not lived a normal life, by any stretch of the imagination.  It's been a very different one for me.

Survive Magazine will, therefore, contain my own writings, and hopefully the writings of others who are moving in the same direction.  Since I am an Evangelical Christian, there will surely be lots of Jesus included in the mix.  We will discuss the possibilities regarding end-times scenarios, discuss theology pertinent to that subject, look at the various takes on the subject, and what to do, where to go, how to do it, how not to do it, and hopefully, be of service to our fellow man.

The blog will be called Survive Magazine, and will hopefully start within the next few months.  Survive Magazine will be hosted on blogger.com.

Ciao,

Oh, My Goodness!

I receive an email news source almost daily.  It IS a source that is heavily slanted in the direction of Christianity, I know, but still... I'm a Christian.

I just read an ominous article about potentialities coming from Asia.  Here is the link:

I think you'll find this interesting.

Any comments?

Happy Resurrection Sunday!

Yep, it's that day again.  This morning my oldest daughter, who happens to be my oldest, came into our room and said "Happy Resurrection Sunday!"  I said, "Happy Easter to you, too!", to which she replied, with a snarl on her lovely face, "I'll never say 'Easter' again, that is a derivative of the name of Ashtar, a female goddess of the Middle East area.  "Hmm," says I.

So within a few minutes, the young lady says, "I love Easter!", a big, sappy smile on her face.  I replied with, "What?", to which she said, "I love Easter," to which I replied, "What?", to which she said, "Oh!".

So we went to the park to hide "Resurrection Sunday" eggs, which turned out to not be eggs at all, but rather egg-shaped plastic containers which contained money.  The boy and I spent ten minutes hiding the entire lot, something like 40 "eggs".  Then the hungry horde descended upon us, the relatives, that is.  While I was busy hiding the "eggs", I was looking down at my handiwork, which didn't look very handy, when a pair of small, black feet came into my field of view.  The little guy asked me what I was doing.  I told him, saying that we were going to have a party.  The next second, the little guy ran toward the monkey bars, saying, "Trevor, we're gonna have a party.  He's hiding Easter eggs."  Too cute.

So we chowed heartily, the food quickly evaporating.  The conversations were good, for a change.  Most everyone was friendly.  And the best part... a relative that no one had seen in 29 years came to the party.  That was amazing.  She and her twin sister had vanished after their parents passed away in 1980, or so, never to be seen nor heard from until the last couple of weeks, then there she was.  The funny part is that one of the relatives had been working with her boyfriend for years, never knowing that connection existed till now!  Wow.

OUT!

We Will Wait Upon The Lord...

I'm sitting in the "Prayer Room" of the Cincinnati House of Prayer, listening to a particularly calm version of "Let It Rain", which hails originally from IHOP KC (International House of Prayer, Kansas City).  I'm on staff here at C-HOP, currently participating/leading 2, 2-hour prayer/worship sets (for a live view of what that might look like, click here  www.ihop.org/theprayerroom.

Having been recently conversing with a good friend of mine regarding the opinions, findings, and research of one Chuck Missler regarding past, current, and future events/occurrences of a biblical nature, and having spent quite a while now listening to reading the opinions of and agreeing with, Mike Bickle at IHOP KC, you'd think I'd be in quite a quandary regarding who's opinion to cling to.  That would not be the case, however.

Chuck Missler seems to make quite a few very valid points regarding the End Times scenario/s, including a rather convincing explanation as to why we, the Christian believers, will be raptured BEFORE the Great Tribulation, and not during, nor after.

Mike Bickle, on the other hand, is certain, certain I say, that we are NOT going to be raptured BEFORE the Great Tribulation, but that we are going to be raptured after ALL of that hairy, nasty, and absolutely hellish series of events rock the entire world, that is if we survive till then.  Mike is convinced that we will be taken up with Him, the Lord Jesus, as he returns exactly 1260 days after the "Abomination that causes Desolation" enters into the Holy of Holies in Jerusalem, desecrating the Temple via sacrificing a pig on the altar.

I was concerned when my friend presented me with this "new" notion, one which I had previously espoused as recently as a few years ago.  Yes, I read the "Left Behind" series, and with great relish.  That was the exact stance that I thought for sure was the only correct one out there.  I believed that until I heard Mike Bickle's take on the rapture of the Church.

At this point in history, I'm thinking that someone MIGHT be correct, but I'm not sure.  Therefore, I MUST take the stance that Mike's version of the truth is the one to prepare for, while keeping in mind that it might just be wrong.  Sorry Mike!  Sorry Chuck!  You're both great students of the scriptures, and you both present an excellent example of "Preparing for the Day of the Lord", and being faithful to the Lord.  May your lamps burn brightly till he returns, and may you both draw millions into the fold, and prepare them for the inevitable, which ever version pans out to be the truth.  I love you guys!

Ciao!

10 Days of Vacation... Ahhh!

Truth be told, it was a restful vacation that we just experienced, albeit a tad on the odd side of things.  Picture this - for the second time in almost 23 years, my wife and I got away ALONE!  The kids are now old enough to leave at home, while we are gallivant about the countryside.  It is an amazing thing to experience such freedom after all that time.  All I can say is... Ahhhh!

So the boy, who has, I may have mentioned, surpassed my stature by a bit over an inch at present, had to go to Missouri to participate in the National Home School Basketball Championships (or some such).  His team came in 5th in the nation (amongst home-school teams that is), while the boy garnered 2nd place in the slam-dunk competition!  That's my boy!

So the wife and I, getting back to the matter at hand, spent 10 days constantly in one another's company.  At this point in the process, we are fairly used to one another, and being extremely calm individuals, were able to return to our homestead alive, and unharmed.  That could easily be seen as a miracle by a large percentage of the population today.  Most, I believe, would expect us to implode after just a few days, or perhaps explode.  But no, we came out completely unscathed.  Woo-hoo!

On the way to Mizzou, the wife and I listened to a book on CD that kept me awake all the way there, that is to say, it was most interesting.  Whenever a book gets referred to as one that kept me awake, well, you get the idea.  Unfortunately, I can't seem to remember the name of the book at present, and the wife took it back to the library.  I'll get back with you on that one.  Sorry.

Then there's The Hunger Games, by some woman who's name escapes me.  Oh yes, Suzanne Collins, that's the name.  That was an interesting one.  I read that after arriving in Branson, MO, where we spent the a.m. and nights.  Branson is NOT my style, at all.  The accommodations were quite nice, though, in Branson, MO. The Hunger Games is set in the former U.S.A., partly in W.V., and partly in CO - Colorado.  It's a post-apocalyptic journey through a world that is not much like ours,

Well, I just woke myself via a deep, heavy duty snore, so good night to all, if anyone is reading.
