                         and Num. 14:34, and shown in Ezra 5:13-17.

TIME of the BEAST. [during the times in power, the Beast will control both Civil and Religious powers

THE U.S.A. in PROPHECY?  Amos 3:7. Rev. 13:1-10 note Vs. 10-11,14. Rev. 12:7.

THE WHOLE, or the NEW TESTAMENT ONLY?

      Sorry, no text here, yet know that the Old Book was ALL there was until at least 30 years after the Cross! Thus the Old Book, was what Jesus taught from, as did all the apostles, until that time! Besides NEITHER is a completed Book on its own therefore, both are needed, THE  WHOLE BIBLE IS ONE BOOK! FOR INSTANCE LUKE 4:4 and Deut.8:3, Jesus used as the source to reject Satan's temptation.

Luke 4:4. "And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God"
 Deuteronomy 8:3. "And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live."

     Plus, the arguably most important Book in the N.T. Revelations of Jesus Christ, uses a fully just over half, of all its words, directly quoting the Old BOOK. So are these New Testament Christians, not trying to build and place a roof, before the foundation and walls are in place?

Note: These are but 12 of many, in fact EFANTS, the french Math genius whose work, is the foundation of all Insurance companies tables {actuarial) to calculate risk, wrote that if only 8 came to pass the odds would millions to one.

FATHER, call no man. Matthew 23:8-9. "But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven."

WHO SETS THRONES - BOUNDARIES? Colossians 1:16. "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:"

NOTE:  Consists in the Greek, means to hold it all together, to maintain. consist.

                         Lk.5:1-11; 4:31. Isa. 6:1-3. Rev. 4:8-9. Ps. 99:9.

GOD' S GRACE and JUDGMENT. [no humble, obedient Christian should fear Judgment!] yet many make God's Grace into a Disgrace! HOW? "Once saved always saved!" Then begin living like the devil!

Note:  Grace is used 39 times in the O.T and 124 times in the N.T.   Judgment = 82 N.T and 220 in the O.T
           Does this not show, our Creator' s concern for the how, we chose to live, life?

             Ezekiel 20:12,13,16 ; 20:20,21,26 ; 53:38 ; 44:24.
Mark 2:27 . "And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:"

Note: 16 verses God called this day, the 7th day, MY Sabbaths, yet He made them for man, so what makes so many men think THEY can change it to the first day of the week, the "Venerable Day of the Sun" to worship Tammuz the sun?

LET NO MAN deceive you:  1Cor.3:18. Eph. 5:6. 2Thes. 2:3.  1Jn. 3:7. plus 1 direct and 2 indirect in
              Matt.24.

Matthew 24:4. "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

I tell you reader, NEVER EVER TAKE THE WORD OF MAN, OR MEN, FOR THE WORD OF GOD, NO NOT EVEN THIS MAN, LEARN IT FOR YOUR SELF, AS only YOU and your deeds shall stand before the Judgment, with Christ IF you have accepted Him fully! Then Judgement is of no worry, for ALL with Christ seated upon the throne of their hearts!

Want to learn more? Find, visit your local Seventh day Adventist Church 9 AM every Saturday, and you'll be welcomed.

To a question posed to THE CATHOLIC EXTENSION MAGAZINE 180 Wabash Ave, Chicago, Illinois {while under the blessings of Pope Pius X11] Regarding the change from the observance of the Jewish Sabbath(*NB) to the Christian Suday, I wish to draw your attention to the facts:

(1) That Protestants, who accept the Bible as the only rule of faith and religion, should by all means go back to the observance of the Sabbath. The fact that they do not on the contrary observe Sunday, stultifies them in the  eyes of every thinking man.

(2) We Catholics do not accept the Bible as the only rule of faith. Besides the Bible we have the living Church, the authority of the
Church, as a rule to guide us. We say, this Church, instituted by Christ, to teach and guide m,en through life, has the right to change the Cere3monial laws of the Old Testament and hence, we accept her change of the Sabbath to Sunday. We frankly say "Yes, the Church made this change, made this law, as she made many other laws, for inst6ance, the Friday Abstinence, the unmarried priesthood, the laws concerning mixed marriages, the regulations of catholic marriages, and a thousand other laws.

(3) We also say tha6t of all Protestants, the Seveth-day Adventist are the only group that reason correctly and are consistant with their teachings. It is always somehow laughable to see Protestant Churches, in pulpit and legislature, demand the observance of Sunday of which there nothing in the Bible>

With Best Wishes
Peter R. Tramer, Editor.

NOTE: I am thankful for their honesty, in admitting that their MAN-MADE LAWS are above thus stand superior to those of God's.
Personally I know that's not a good place to stand!

(*) NB This is a misnomer, there's. . . NO. . .  Biblical support and no such a day as the Jewish Sabbath. This SET ASIDE DAY BY GOD, HIS HOLY SABBATHS , began on the 7th day of Creation GEN. 2:1-3  fully 2300 years BEFORE there were a people called the JEWS!
So why think YOU, that God Himself, wrote with His Own finger in Stone the 4th Commandment as REMEMBER...?

TIME Note: God is above and beyond time, as HE is Eternal!
Question: How did humans arrive at our "Blocks of Time"  the YEAR, the Month the Week and the Day?
YEAR= 4 seasons, and one complete revolution around our Sun, right?
MONTH=  from the Lunar cycles, from new to full=30 days= 1 Biblical month
DAY=  earth' s rotation on its axis, every 24 hours, Gen. 1:5,8,13,19,23,.31: 2:1-3, the 7th day.
WEEK?   We have found nothing in our solar system, that gives us a 7 day week? So how did we get this
                 number? The French tried for about 3.5 years, to run a 10 day week, and 3 weeks to the month.
                 That was discarded, so why and how the seven day week?
                 Gen. 2:1-3. Exodus 16:24-30. Rev.4:11 Ephesians 3:9. Exo. 20:8-11 Gen 2:1-3. Mark.2:27-28
                 2JN. 1:9-10. Matt. 7:21-24. LK. 13:25-27. .Exo.20:12-20. LK.4:16. Matt.24:20.
                Acts 13:40-44. Rev. 1:10.
NOTE: THE WEEK'S 7TH DAY, FRAMES THE BIBLICAL SABBATHS, WHICH IS GOD'S MEMORIAL TO HIS CREATION-GEN.2:1-3.

 Genesis 2:1-3 . "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."

Note: This was 2300 years before there were ANY JEWS, thus NOT a "JEWISH SABBATH" right? Yet most Christians break this the 4th Commandment, without knowing it, as they are not so taught!

Malachi 3:6  "For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed."
Hebrews 13:8  "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."

Note: If neither God the Father nor Jesus Christ ever changes, who made this change from the 7th day to to the first day of the week, but MEN? Can any man or men save YOU?

BIBLICAL SABBATHS:

Exodus 16:4-5. "Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.  And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in; and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily. "

Exodus 16:20. "Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them."

Exodus 16:22-27. "And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses. And he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning. And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein. And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the LORD: to day ye shall not find it in the field. Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none. And it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none."

NOTE:  God honors His laws, many humans do not, then or now, notice some went to gather the Manna on the 7th day, and there was none!

                                Isa. 56:2 Deuteronomy 28:1-2,15. Exo.20:8-11. Leviticus 23:3. LK. 4:16.
                                Isa58:13-4. Nehemiah13:15-22. Matt. 12:11-13. MK. 2:23-28. Exo. 16:28-30

 Matthew 15:9  "But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."
 Matthew 7:23. "And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

Luke 23:53-56 and 24:1 and with Mark 15:42-47 proves biblically, the Sabbath IS the SEVENTH DAY! Fitted between GOOD FRIDAY and Sunday! So if God didn't and Jesus didn't change the Sabbath day from Saturday to Sunday, and Bible shows no change, then does that leave BUT, men only?

NO CHANGE IN GOD' S LAWS, NOT SANCTIONED WITHIN THE WORD OF GOD, otherwise why write them in stone?  WHY INDEED?

             "Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. "The day of the Lord" [Dies Dominica] was chosen, not from and y direction noted in the scriptures, but from the Churches sense of its own power. So this would become the new Sabbath. People who think the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become 7th Day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy."

Well I give my thanks for their honesty but.....

Malachi 3:6. "For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed."

As for me and my house I'll serve the LORD, not men thanks!

GOD AND WILLING HEARTS

BOTH STORIES ARE TRUE, AND EACH SHOWS THAT OUR CREATOR GOD, IS ABLE TO DO WITHIN A WILLING HEART.


 STORY 1.

       Many years ago, Al Capone virtually ran Chicago, no he was not famous for anything good nor heroic. He was however infamous for enmeshing the windy city in everything from bootlegging booze and prostitution, gambling to murder.

     Al's lawyer nicknamed "Fast Eddy," because he was good and in fact kept via his skills at legal maneuvering, kept Big All out of jail for a long time.

    To show his appreciation, Capone paid him very well. Not only in money, but Fast Eddie got special dividends, for instance, he and his family occupied a fenced-in mansion with live in help and all of the conveniences of the day. This estate was so large that it took up an entire Chicago City block.
 
     Yes, Eddie live the high life of the Chicago mob and gave little consideration to the atrocity that when on around him. He had one soft spot however, and that was his son, and he saw to it this boy lacked of nothing, in clothing, in schooling, price was no object.

     However, despite of his involvement with organized crime, Eddie even tried to teach him right from wrong. Clearly, Eddie wanted his son to be better than he.

    Yet, with all his efforts and his wealth, there were two things he could not. . .not give to his son. He couldn't pass on a good name, nor a good example.

    One day, "Easy Eddie" reached a difficult decision, he would try to rectify the wrongs he had done, by telling all he knew about Al "Scarface" Capone, clean up his name and offer his son some semblance of integrity. To do this, he would agree to testify against the mob, and he knew that the cost would be great, but he did testify.

   Within a year, Easy Eddie's life ended in a blaze of gunfire on a lonely Chicago Street., but in his eyes he had given his son the greatest gift he had to offer, as the greatest price he could ever pay.From his pockets the police removed a rosary, a crucifix, a religious medallion, and a poem clipped from a magazine,
       The Poem Read:
    "The clock of life is wound but once, and no man has the power to tell just when the hands will stop, at late or early hour. Now is the only time you own. Live. love toil with a will. Place no faith in time. For the clock may soon be still."

STORY NUMBER TWO.

    World War 2 produced many heroes. One such man was Lt. Commander Butch O' Hare. A fighter pilot assigned to the aircraft carrier , The Lexington, in the South Pacific.

    One day his entire squadron was sent on a mission. After he was airborne, looking at his fuel gauge and realizing that someone had forgotten to fill his tanks. His flight leader told him to return to the ship. On this part of his flight, he saw something, that made his blood cold; a squadron of Japanese aircraft, heading towards his fleet.

    The American fighter craft,, all gone on a sortie, leaving the fleet all but defenseless. Not being able to reach his squadron, nor could they return in time, to help with this danger. There was in his mind but one thing to do, somehow he must divert them from the fleet.

    Laying aside all thoughts of personal safety, he dove into the formation of Japanese planes. The wing-mounted 50 calibers blazed as he charged in, attacking one surprised enemy plane and then another. Butch wove in and out of the now broken formation and fired at as many planes as possible until all his ammunition was spent.

   Undaunted, he continued the assault. He dove at the planes, trying to clip a wing or a tail in hopes of damaging as many enemy planes as possible, rendering it unfit to fly..

   Finally, the exasperated Japanese squadron took of into another direction.  Deeply relieved, Butch O 'Hare and his tattered fighter limped back to the carrier.

    Upon arrival, he reported in and related the event surrounding his return. The film from the gun -mounted camera on his plane told the story, it showed the extent of Butch's daring attempt to protect the fleet. He had, in fact destroyed five enemy aircraft. That February 20th day of 1942, and so for this action Butch became the Navy's first Ace of WW2 and the First, Naval Aviator to win the Medal of Honer.

    A year latter Butch was killed in aerial combat at the age of 29. His home town would not allow the memory of this W.W.2 hero to fade away. Today the O 'Hare International Airport is named in tribute to the courage of this great man. So, if you ever get to this airport give some thought to see his Memorial and his medal of Honor located between Terminals ONE and TWO!

SO WHAT. . . DO THESE TWO STORIES HAVE TO DO WITH EACH OTHER?

BUTCH O' HARE WAS "EASY EDDIE'S". . . SON!

See I told from the beginning God is able, able to change all willing hearts, but HE will not ever use force, only LOVE and TRUTH, the Apposser uses every thing else including kill, steal and lies.

REVELATION' S FOUR HORSEMEN.

Many have called them the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, but remember these words were All written by 100 A.D. concerning the New Testament. This " White Horse" then covers from the Cross to 100AD.

John 8:44. "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it."

Note: This was Jesus speaking to the Scribes and the Pharisees, who had grown up under the man made laws that Jesus called the Traditions of men. Thus ignoring the word of God, He equaled them as sons of your father who in this case is Satan!

THE WHITE HORSE--and the RIDER. from 31-100 A.D.

Revelation 6:1-2. "And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer."

Amos 3:7. "Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets."

Note: from the above verses, we find:
1: The Lamb is  Jesus Christ, opening one of the Seals
2: White, the color of purity and righteousness
3: Horse indicating power
4: Bow shows strife and even war battles
5: Crown, on the head of our King Supreme KING of Kings Christ Jesus, for  A Conquering Faith.

This was during the time of a tremendous growth in the Church, that is Christ Jesus.

Romans 12:10. "Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;"

Note: can any be against this attitude? Would the world, not be a better place if all chose this idea?

Colossians 1:23. "If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;"

Note: please notice the faith grounded and settled in the hope of the Gospel. God's Word, and not those of men.Man can't save self nor others, agree?

Acts 5:14. "And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)"

Note: God's truth acts as a magnet, drawing all those who want to know the truth, of who they are, and why and how,they are here, and where they are going.

Acts 5:29. "Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men."

Note is this not counter, to ALL who teach that human tradition is above the Word of God? So who think YOU is the greater power? Can man create Worlds?

THE RED HORSE.  100AD TO  323 AD.

Revelation 6:4. "And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword."

Note: this was Pagan Rome as a great Persecuting power. TERTULLIAN  a Roman historian wrote that during this time the "Blood of the Martyrs is seed of the Gospels" Because the dying sang songs of praise to God while actually dying, showing no fear. Obviously not even pain as its very hard to sing while one is screaming in pain agree? Only a Living God is able to do this for His own! What's a few minutes of pain when put up against a forever joy?

Acts 8:3. "As for Saul, he made havoc of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison."

Note: Saul here is to be a little latter called Paul, who became one of the great Gospel workers ever, after his conversion.This was also the time of the Christians being fed to the wild animals, and for Nero, to cover them in pitch and use then as human candles by setting them on fire!

Note: This persecution was aimed, primarily at Jews, but the fact that both gave God worship on the Sabbath, both Jews and Christian alike, were butchered.Perhaps this was another reason why so many Christ Men and Women so easily accepted the day of the Sun as their day for worship. It was an easier road to travel, but did Christ take the easy way out?   NO! THANK GOD, AND CHRIST He did not! Or Salvation would not be possible.

THE BLACK HORSE      323- 1526 A.D. No truth, no Light.

Revelation 6:5. "And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand."

Note: Black/ dark darkness was over W. Europe, due to lack of God's Truth. Not only were all books hand written, and hand bound, one book at a time, they were very expensive and even more rare. In fact most Bibles were banded with iron and chained and locked inside the Church's offices, away from Public view, and were all in Latin, that only a few could read or speak.

Acts 20:28-29. "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock."

Note: can we use the "Grievous wolves" as symbolic of the Dark Ages of Europe, in matter of religion? With Rome' s ideas of "Believe as I say or die!"

Daniel 8:12. "And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered."

Note; during this time frame, we saw the world's greatest monuments to human religion, in form of magnificent Cathedrals, right? Not to mention all the gold ornaments, and the bejeweled robes and other stuff used in ceremony, that exalted man's ideals.
   YET , Christ did not even have a place to lay His head, and call it His home, right? 
NOTE:  It was during this time that men introduced the idea that the Church, this one, was the source of and for Salvation, and NOT CHRIST!  That's per Catechism of the Catholic Church [C.C.C. p. 2066

In the Catholic Encyclopedia Vol.4.p 153 you'll find their account for the Lord's Day to be on Sunday the first day of the week rather than the Bible's 7th day of the week! Yet that's NOT ALL!


Exodus 20:4-5. "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;"

Note: Even see ANY of their Churches, without any statues of any kind? What do people do in front of these statues? Now read again the above verses.{Take note of "..them that hate me.."

Daniel 7:25. "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time"

Note: go to almost any Catholic web site and in the search bar type "Apostolic Creed" and then find Book 7 Section 2: "Sabbath Memorial" and then compare that to these two:......

.Exodus 20:11. "For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it"

 Genesis 2:1-3. "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."

THE BLACK HORSE   1526-1798 AD  Truth began to glow brighter and brighter begin Reformation.

Revelation 6:7-8. "And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And 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"

Note: the DEATH horse, as many of God's faithful we murdered, due to the believe as I say or die laws from the Religious-political power all in one man, the Pope!

Note: history proves, and is still very visible today, whenever the Church and State becomes as one, Persecution always results! We see this in many Islamic nations today, where a woman rights are not much better than an animal' s rights!

Proverbs 4:18. "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect
day."

Note: Justification, is a process, for most, but if God wills, it can be instant perfection.God raised up the Reformation' s workers, to bring light into a dark world, that had not God' s Truth.

Jude 1:3. "Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints"

Note of many of the saints, were those known as the Waldenses, who refused Rome's brand of worship, then in July 6 of 1415, Rome's allies found over 1,000 men, women and children, in a cave in the Alps, and piled up huge wood pile, burning and the smoke suffocated all inside the cave! Sadly this was but a prelude of worse yet to come.

Note 2: do YOU reader, know the reason why Friday the 13th is taken as bad luck day? Ever hear of the Bartholomew Massacre? In France, they rounded up so 50,000 Huguenots, who as the Waldenses, believed in the Bible, were murdered in mass on that day! By the sword, blood ran in the street that day!

Romans 8:1. "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."

Ephesians 2:8. "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:"

Note: both these two verses are but an anathema to this Little horn Power of Rome.

John 16:12. "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now."

Note: we humans can not absorb all there is to know about the Father God, until our change.

Matthew 28:19-20. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

Note: here you see one of my reasons for this work.

Revelation 12:17. "And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ"

Note: here's another reason, I try to inform YOU, of God's Truth, and why most of this is from His Word, and not mine nor another' s!

If this peaked your interest, find the nearest Seventh day Adventist Church and go and see at 9A.M any Saturday, and receive a welcome! From becoming an Organized Church in 1858, to world-wide membership of 18 [11/2012]+ million to date.

Part 2 REVELATION' S Mark Of the Beast EXPOSED

PART 2of 2.

Revelation 13:1-2. "And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.  And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority."

Note: Symbolic beast, of a power system or kingdom, but notice from Daniel 7, an animal made up from the parts of the previous animals/kingdoms, meaning that this system, adapted those parts, ideas, religion philosophy, from those they conquered.

Daniel 7:17. "These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth."

Note: ruling powers, civil or religious powers

Revelation 17:15. "And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues"

Note: a SEA represent people, nations or language groups.

Revelation 13:2. "And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority."

Note: The Dragon or Pagan Rome gives this new power its authority, and history shows that Papal Rome received it's power and authority from Pagan Rome under Constantine.

Revelation 13:5. "And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months."

Note: This beast power would speak blasphemy! What does the Bible name as blasphemy?

Luke 5:21. "And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

Note here we find one type of blasphemy, that of taking away a God's prerogatives, the forgiveness of sin, which God claims as His alone! Which church also claims to have this power, but the "Universal" meaning Catholic church!

John 10:33. "The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God."

Note: God' s Word says that men making self equal to God, is blasphemy. The popes have also claimed to be equal to and some even superior to God!


"Ferraris' Eccl. Dictionary"  (Catholic) Article "POPE"
 "The Pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God, and the VICAR OF GOD."
 " He is likewise the divine monarch and supreme emperor and king of kings."

Note: Here I read that Jesus Christ is KING of Kings, and LORD of Lords! But speaking of human egos.

Revelation 13:5. "And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months"

Note: Time times and1/2 time is 42 months or 1260 days of Hebrew months. During this time God's believers are in hiding.

Ezekiel 4:6. "And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year."
Numbers 14:34. "After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise."

Note: one day for one year being the prophetic key to bible time lines in prophecy only, thus 1260 days = 1260 years,.

Daniel 7:25. "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time."

Note: The Papal powers which changed God' s Law would reign supreme for 1260 years. from 538 AD when Pagan Rome granted both relio-civil powers to the then Bishop of Rome. It was exactly 1260 from that time to the year of 1798 when Napoleon'  army under General Berther' invaded her domain, took the Pope prisoner, and removed her Nation Status. This ARE the historical facts!Revelation 13:7."And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindred, and tongues, and nations." These were the Dark Ages! [This not a Country lasted until 1929's Lateran Treaty with Gasparri and Mussolini., now 180 Nations have Embassies in her 114 acres!}

Revelation 13:8. "And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world"

Note this time frame has just begun, with the Ecumenical Council, where all human religions are given equal value and Christ is replaced with Mary as our redeemer.

Revelation 13:1. " Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."

Note: The number of the beast IS the number of a man! His number is 666, in the Bible the number 6 is oft found with error and imperfection, while 7 equals spiritual perfection or completeness.Thus a triple 6 equals the great trinity of error, the dragon and the beast, and the false prophet.
The 666 comes to us from here and from the letters of a now seldom used Triple Crown. The letters form the words:  VICARIUS FILII DEI  = Latin for Vicar the San of God. Roman letter have a number value thus:

V = 5           F = 0          D  = 500
I = 1             I = 1           E = 0
C = 100       L = 50          I = 1
A = 0            I = 1          ------------
R = 0           I = 1               501
I = 1          ---------
U = 5            53
S = 0
---------
112                             112+ 53 + 501 =  666  Fits also in Greek/Lateinos and Hebron/Romiith.

 Daniel 3:1. "Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon"

Note: King Nebuchadnezzar establishes a counterfeit image with dimensions of 60 and 6 cubits.

  Daniel 3:3-4. "Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,"

Note: the entire kingdom was summoned to kneel and accept this image of counterfeit worship.

Daniel 3:14. "Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?"

Note, then as yet to come, the central issue during the time of tribulations will be worship either the true of the counterfeit.

Revelation 13:13-17. "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."

Note: A counterfeit image will the be established, a false standard of truth will be exalted. The central issue will be obedience to God and true verses false worship. An economic boycott, then a death degree will be passed by men to force worship according to men, just as it was during the dark Ages, and by the same powers!

Revelation 14:7. "Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters."

Note This call on all people to the true worship of the Creator on His Sabbaths.Remember the the thing Satan wants most of all, is worship, he want us to worship him, and he cares not one whit, that's what causes all who so do , to be lost forever!

Revelation 14:9-11. "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name"

Note here we are told to avoid the counterfeit Sabbath on Sunday, by the worship of the beast, which is but a power system, of men, remember?

Revelation 14:12. "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

Note: are we told to keep the commandments of men or those of God?

Romans 6:16. "Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?"

Note: It IS more than a day, it IS whom you obey and serve, so who do YOU follow God or MEN?

Mark 7:9. "And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition."

Note: Catholic Traditions date back nearly two thousand years, but does age make them right, with God?

John 14:15. "If ye love me, keep my commandments."

Note: Man says obey me or die, but Christ says IF you love me obey, a huge difference, right?

Psalms 91:1-. " He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.  I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust."

Please read all the rest of His promises for YOU and YOURS!

This concludes this Revelation Study, if this has helped you, or you want to learn more, find and GO AND SEE your nearest  ADVENTIST Church and be pleasantly, surprised by the warm welcome you receive.

14 REVELATION' S MARK OF THE BEAST EXPOSED.

Yes, God does indeed expose the truth, about the Mark of the Beast.
First, it it NOT. . . .repeat not a brand, chip, credit card number, brand, nor a tattoo, yet it is in full view and plain sight for all to see!
Second, it is not yet applied, and it shall not be applied until after the Universal Sunday Law becomes law!

 How can we be so sure?

 John 17:17. "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth."

2 Timothy 3:16. "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

Galatians 3:22. "But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe."

Note: IF, any wish to learn about God and His Christ, then study the Holy Bible, as this is all we have, unless you thin a Superman Comic book might do? But we ALL know that fiction, right?

Proverbs 23:23. "Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding."

Note: Buy the truth, as truth is worthy of any price, as truth shall lead you to Christ and His Salvation. But. . .there's two truths out there, God's and the other is of men! YOU decide which can lead to salvation of your being.

Hebrews 13:8. "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."

Note: His laws remains the same, that's why He wrote them in stone, with His won finger! All ten of them, for they are HIS character!

Exodus 31:18. "And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God."

Psalms 89:34. "My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips"

Note: Covenant =law = Contract will HE not ever break!
 Titus 1:2. "In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;"

Note: God cannot lie, for IF He did, it must become a fact, and that can't be within His character.
     Many have heard this: "Well we are under Grace, because the Law was nailed to the Cross!" There were two sets of Laws both from God, one set the TEN written on stone place inside the Ark. The other set written by Moses, as God spoke them, and placed on the SIDE of the Ark, these were the Ceremonial Laws, covering the holly days, and the sacrifices, they were done away with, because Christ became the Supreme Sacrifice for all time!

Matthew 5:17-18. "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

Note: If any thinks the Law is no more, is it OK then to steal, to murder, to lie, or to take another man's wife? LAW nailed to cross right?
So. . .IF. . . if    the Mark of the Beast is about WORSHIP AND OBEDIENCE, we should know how and whom we should worship and obey, do you think so?

Genesis 2:1-3. "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made"

Note: This IS The Sabbath, Hollowed [made Holy], Sanctified [Set a part for a holy purpose] and Blessed in Eden, by the Creator! Now can man/men make anything Holy?  YES or NO ?

Luke 4:16. "And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read."

Note: should or should not, all Christians follow the example set by Christ our Savior?  YES or NO?

Acts 13:42-44. "And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.  Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God. And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God."

Note: Most historians accept that Paul wrote the book of Acts in the 61 A.D. time frame well after Jesus Returned to the Father, and he kept the 7th day Sabbaths, which men changed to Sunday the Venerable day of the Sun-god! Yet this also was foretold!

Acts 20:28-31. "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears."

Note: This has indeed transpired, as written, right? We were told, before the fact, that Apostasy would enter into the early Church!When it changed God' s Sabbath day, time was involved right? Dan 7:25 note below

Daniel 8:12. "And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered."

Daniel 7:25. "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time"

Note Attempted to change the Laws of God, by men.

"The Catholic Mirror," September 1893  here's this article in their words, in their own publication.
"The Catholic Church for more than one thousand years before the existence of a Protestant, by virtue of her divine mission, changed the say from Saturday to Sunday."

Note: I thank them for their honesty and openness, don't you?

"The Catholic Encyclopaedia,"  Vol 4.p.153 we find this gem....
"The Church,....after changing the day of rest from the Jewish Sabbath, or the seventh day of the week, to the first, made the third commandment refer to Sunday as the day to be kept holy as the Lord's Day." 

Note NUFF said?

Isaiah 8:16. "Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples."

Note Seal the law, seal or sign, or mark, are used interchangeably in the Word of God. But what is God' SEAL?

Exodus 20:8-11. "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it"

Note: Any "SEAL of Office" even a Notery Public must have three element given: Name- Title- Territory, from the above we have:
From His Royal Seal God;s Name: LORD
                                 God's Title:  Maker
                                 His Territory- Heavens and Earth.

.Revelation 7:1-3. "And 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. And 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, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads."

Note: God's people shall receive the seal of the Sabbath before the end.

Revelation 14:7. "Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters."
 Revelation 14:12. "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

Note: all those who are "God's People". will observe ALL 10, and not just 9 or 8 of God's Laws. as this shall be the last message calls to us to worship the Creator and keep His commandments!

End of part 1 of the M.O.B. Exposed.

Please take the time to learn this for yourselves, from your Bible, with prayers for wisdom to understand. Unless your Pastor teaches this, what purpose does it do to ask him questions regarding this as many call this a closed book?

13 REVELATION' S SPIRITUAL REVOLUTION

  YES, near the end of  age of flesh, as it now is, there shall be a great Spiritual Revival to the point where the masses think of it as a Revolution of Religion and the return to God, and His value system!

Revelation 14:6-12. "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

Revelation 14:6. "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel...."

Note:  God's Truth shall go forth, His true Church shall lead mankind to His truth by the Remnant Church.

Revelation 12:17. "And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ"

Note: The "Dark Ages" in W. Europe, where millions died because of their faith in God's Word, rather than the words of men!.

Revelation 14:6. " ........ having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,"

God' s Church will and does have an international mission movement.

Revelation 14:7. "Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; ...."

Note: How do we give God glory? In our lifestyles and.....
1 Corinthians 10:31. "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God."

Note: Leviticus health laws chapter 11 gives us the clean and the unclean animals. Only the clean are for food, therefor no pork, and sea food unless it has both scales and fins are but a few of the limits. People ask of the why? Notice that most of the unclean flesh is from His Sanitation crew they eat the sick and the dead, plus in the water every thing that floats down from the top, for shrimp, clam and crab, and catfish to eat it. They are the vultures  of the waters. Are u ready for a breast of Vulture sandwich? Or a leg of hyena?

Revelation 14:7. "...... for the hour of his judgment is come:........"

Note: His Church one of few, that teaches and announces "The Hour of God's Judgment has come."

Revelation 14:7. "....... and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters."

Note: His Church announces, and calls all humanity to worship the Creator. Many Churches today give lip service to the Creator, and support man made evolution ideas! {Yet they claim full faith and belief in the Holy Bible,  but deny the Creation and many even question the flood , so they question Genesis from 1 to 11th chapter yet they want you to accept they believe all the rest of it? Talk about speaking out both sides of one's mouth!]
    Yet this last part of V.7 is nearly identical to to the 4th Commandment of Exodus 20; 11 calling all humans to worship the Creator!

 Revelation 4:11. "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created."

Note: the very basis for worship is the fact that God made us! We were not an accident, God purposed you and me in His mind before we were conceived! Now what is His Symbol of and for the Creation?...>

Exodus 20:8-11. "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it."

Note: HIS Sabbaths, are a memorial, thus our reminder of and for His Creation, and it begins with....
     REMEMBER THE SABBATH....

Genesis 2:1-3 . "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."

Revelation 14:12. "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

Note: God' s true Church leads people to faith in Jesus and obedience to His law, the Ten Pillars of Truth and Hope. Most other Churches keep only 9 or 8, most disregard the 4th Commandment entirely, as they obediently follow Rome!

Revelation 14:8. "And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication."

God's true Church has warned humanity, about the false doctrines and errors of spiritual Babylon

Revelation 14:9-11. "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."

God' s Truth is taught about death and the lake of fire.

Revelation 22:17. "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."


The Spirit and Bride say "COME". Through His mighty all powerful Spirit and His Christ Centered, truth-teaching church, Jesus appeals to us to become part of His people.

Will YOU say, "Jesus, YES, I will follow Your truth, wherever you lead me!?"

12 REVELATION REVEALS DEADLY DELUSIONS.

SUB-TITLE: "WHERE ARE THE DEAD"?

As stated before, most have been taught to accept that at death we are bound for either heaven or hell and or as many believe a place kinda in-between, Purgatory. right?

      Would you dear reader, believe that neither of these teachings are of Biblical origin? Read on and see !

John 11:11-14. "These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead"

Note: Here Jesus compares death to sleep. The Bible compares death to sleep over fifty (50) times! So how on earth did this stuff begin?  Would you believe it began from a Lie that Satan told to Eve?

.Genesis 2:17. "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die"
 Genesis 3:. " And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:"

Note: Satan nearly always will mix a little lie in with a truth, notice above he added the one word, NOT, thus changing the whole meaning of God's OBEDIENCE TEST agree"

Note: Now is there another reason or purpose for this particular deception?
   YES! 
    We need only too look at how rampant Spiritism is of late, all over the T.V. logs we find programs about contacting the spirits of the dead, plus all those fortune tellers, card readers, palm readers and Star gazers the so=called astrologers that think planetary and star locations guide human futures, channelers and so forth! All of this is condemned in the Bible because it gives Satan a huge opening, for his angels to possess people.

Deuteronomy 18:14. "For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do."

Mark 5:2-6. "And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped him,"

Note: All who think they are playing a game with the spirit world, can be as this man, possessed.

Mark 5:9. "And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many."

Mark 5:12-13."And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea."

Note: A person can be the "HOME" of many, many demons, which went into the the pigs, nearby and 2,000 of ran over a cliff, into the sea, and drowned, rather than house these demons. It appears that pigs are smarter than some people, when it comes to evils, right?

1 Samuel 28:7. "Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor."

Note here King Saul in VS 11, was seeking Samuel who had died and been buried, for advice read on to see what became of him!
    All who use Satan systems, can see and speak to loved ones, OR SO THEY THINK, BUT IN REALITY what they see and hear are fallen angels , who are always near us, watching learning and seeing what we look and sound like. Then when one wants to contact Uncle Bill, or Gradma, they go to a channeler or use tarot cards or WE GEE (sp?) boards, and soon one of Satan's little helpers will appear in fuzzy smokey manner and it will look like and sound like and speak like, and know stuff they've overheard, and then tell you, making YOU think that YOU are actually speaking to the dead!
   Now if you ask a question about who you should worship, they will tell you to follow the majority and follow the Roman Dictates of Sunday worship, thus steering you in the opposite direction?

Ecclesiastes 9:5. "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten".

All the dead are buried, or reduced to ashes, or those lost at sea are gone. All are "Sleeping"  because all those asleep, are not aware of the passage of time are they? Not until the alarm goes of. right? So which one of the two. . .yes 2 resurrections do you hope you and yours will awaken too? Let's hope the first one!

John 5:28-29. "Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation"

SO WHAT IS A HUMAN BEING?

 Genesis 2:7. "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul."

NOTE: ".....and man became what?   A LIVING SOUL. Men and women are living souls, God did not make us and then added unto us a soul.  AT conception we are becoming a LIVING SOUL!


DUST OF THE GROUND
+ BREATH OF LIFE
= A LIVING SOUL     REMOVE ONE OR THE OTHER, WE ARE DEAD!

 BUT  but, you ask what about the spirit that returns to God?
Ecclesiastes 12:7. "Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it."

Note: SPIRIT and/or the BREATH OF LIFE, both are one of the same, only God holds and gives life, we can not! As you can see.....

Job 27:3. "All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;"

Note: Can you see God's Holy Spirit residing inside your nose? Of course not, this speaks to the Breath of Life, God' s life-giving Powers!

 Psalms 146:3-4. "Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.  His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish"

Note: at death all human thoughts do what?  PERISH so who doing the speaking and thinking. Some body's loved ones, passed on, or demons?

1 Timothy 6:14-16. "That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen."

Note: "...who ONLY hath immortality... but GOD! Man is mortal, meaning liable to die!

Ecclesiastes 9:5. "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten"

Romans 2:7. "To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life:".

Note: We seek immortality, but that only comes to us from Christ Jesus, and The Father God Not from any of Satan's lies, that far too many accept as truth!The Bible uses the word soul 1600 times , but NEVER once used the immortal souls for men until after the Resurrection at the 2ND Coming, as you read...

1 Corinthians 15:51-55. "Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?"

Note: if you still think as "Die and go to heaven," read on....

Psalms 115:17. "The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence."

Note: Die, GO TO HEAVEN AND THEN not PRAISE GOD?  what do you think?

Acts 2:34. "For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,"

Note: If King David is still in the earth, so are all others unless the Bible speaks to those who are there already! Mary the flesh mother of Jesus, is still in the ground, as there's no verse even giving us a hint, other wise! This is but a small part of the" traditions if men"! Sorry we aught to take the word of God and not the words of men!

Psalms 6:5. "For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?"
Ecclesiastes 9:5. "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten."

Revelation 16:14. "For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty."

Revelation 18:23. "And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorcery's were all nations deceived."

Note: again when psychics claim to be contacting the spirits of the dead, they are really in touch with Satan's fallen angels.

Isaiah 8:19-20. :And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them."

Job 19:25-26. "For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:"

Note: The righteous will be resurrected to see God at the last day, the 7th Trumpet call!

Ezekiel 18:4. "Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die"

Note: if the soul dies, remember, dust+soul/breath of life = a man or woman alive, but remove either one and death results, right? Here we find sin causes death, outside of Christ. Plus we now know that at death our spirit/soul/breath of life returns to the Creator, for our DNA record?????? But we are not living but dead, until the resurrection for just or the unjust latter, remember?

2 Timothy 4:7-8. "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing."

Note: The Apostle Paul awaited the coming of the Lord for his final reward,

Revelation 22:12. "And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be"

Note: Jesus return means He will have HIS reward with Him. {HIS REWARD? YOU and ME and all others!}

Is this way not so much better, than if all just people are now in heaven, looking down on their beloved family members, and ALL the hurts we suffer? Is not not better that they sleep? And not know of our pains and injuries? I think so,  do YOU?

Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life." Are YOU willing to trust in HIS personal promises and let the truth of death fill your life with security and comfort?

11. REVELATION' S LAKE OF FIRE.

THIS ......IS.......HELL FIRE'S ONCE AND ONLY USE, AND IT COMES AT THE END, OF THE THOUSAND YEARS OF PEACE, WHILE SATAN IN IN "CHAINS"!

Sorry, but all those who believe, "I'd rather serve in hell, for ever, than the serve God in heaven for a few minutes!"  Just plainly do NOT know what they are talking about!

Jeremiah 31:3. "The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee."

Note: God' s character in love, a love so deep, so everlasting, so giving, that it is beyond human understanding.

2 Peter 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."

Note: Longsuffering, means HE is very patient with us, and He wants each one of us to accept Christ, and come to repent before Him in prayer, thus not perish and be lost forever. Nobody' s sin is so great, that he can not forgive an honest and repented heart! He created the Universe, and no sin is that big!

Hebrews 12:29. "For our God is a consuming fire."

Note: Sin nor sinners, can not co-exist with God. For this is one purpose for which He freely gave His life, for all of us, for all time, that each of us might have live also! The choice is ours to make!

Malachi 4:1-3. "For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts."

Note: The above is the reason and the purpose for Revelation' s Lake of Fire, as this destroyed all sin and death itself, it has no further use! There is no Hades, or Hell, and Satan's not a ruler there, that's all from Satan's mind and human imaginations!

Psalms 37:9-10. "For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be."

Note: the just shall inherit the earth {the meek} and unjust shall be burned up as stubble. {Stubble is the dried out remains of harvested grains in a field}

Psalms 37:20. "But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away."

Note: if I or anyone is reduced to smoke, are we still able to feel pain? YES or NO?

Psalms 37:34-37. "Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.  Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found. Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace."

Psalms 37:38. "But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off."

Note: does this passage of Psalms not give a clear answer to the fate of those who reject Christ?

John 8:12. "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life"

Note: it this more plainly stated? Have Jesus have live, thus no Jesus no life! Eternal life!BUT. . .but you ask, "What about the everlasting punishment?"

Matthew 25:46. "And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal."

Note: true about the punishment being forever, as there is no un-punishments, but it DOES NOT say ever lasting punishing now does it? This single punishment' s result shall be forever!

Jude 1:7. "Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire"

NOTE: Question, are these cities still burning today, with "everlasting fire"?. NO!

2 Peter 2:6. "And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;"

Note: God never does anything without a purpose, can you find two reasons for this act?

Matthew 3:10-12. "And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

Note: This fire can not be put out, by human means, because God purposed it to destroy totally and eradicate sin from the universe., We have His promise sin shall not arise the second time.

Revelation 22:3. "And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: "

Note: can you think of a greater curse than either sin or death?Either from God' s or men s view?

Jeremiah 17:19-27  Thus said the LORD unto me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem; And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates: Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers. But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction. And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken unto me, saith the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein; Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain for ever. And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, unto the house of the LORD. But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched."

Note: thus far this has covered the everlasting, the the shall not be quenched and the eternal, and all so used had a specific purpose, and when the objective was done, so was the fire, right?Jerusalem is not now still ablaze is it?

Revelation 20:10.And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever."

Note: The sole purpose for this fire is to what? To destroy those cast therein, agree? Now once life has left a body, does the body feel pain? Think of road kill, and how many cars run over it. Again the result is eternal, and for ever right? Let's try this ....

Exodus 21:6. "Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever."

Note: still as a servant today? Or as long as he lived?

Revelation 20:9. "And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them."

Note: the wicked are devoured in the fire, what about Satan?

Ezekiel 28:15. "Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee."

Ezekiel 28:16-18. "By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee."

Note: Satan, shall also be reduced to ashes.

Isaiah 47:14. "Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it."

Note: what happens to any fire, when the fuels is all burned up? It goes out right?  AND??

Obadiah 1:16. "For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been."

Note: as though they had not been! Would this also extend to the memories of those who loved these?  YES! For how can heaven be heaven if we are filled with memories of lost loved ones?

Jeremiah 31:34. "And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more".

Note: Is God able to remove those who are lost, from our minds? Surely!

2 Peter 3:12-13. "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?  Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness."

Note: New Heavens, remember the New Jerusalem is as tall as it is wide, 375 miles, as best as men can judge, that would put the all but the lowest mile into very thin oxygen levels, thus new heavens required. This earth will be totally under fire for the elements to melt, thus purifying earth from all human pollutions, and destroyed remains of buildings, so that the new Eden can be created.

YOUR RESPONSE: More than anything Jesus want YOU to dwell in His glorious Kingdom. He longs for YOU to occupy the mansion He has prepared for YOU. Will YOU decide now to accept His offer?
