THE 144,000 OF REVELATION. Part 2.

  We will begin, with the verse we finished with in Part 1.
 
     John 6:27 " Labor not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed."

Note: What is this "meat"?
    John 6:55  "For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed."
    John 6:51  "I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."
Note: So How does this apply to us now?
     John 1:1-4  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.John 1:14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
Note: Can we then say, "The Word of God, Is Jesus Christ, and Christ's Word is the Bible? Because, if we remove any and all references to Christ from the Bible, all we'd have left is a difficult to read history book.
       
                           God shall "SEAL" all those whom BELIEVE UPON CHRIST WHEN?

     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."
    Revelation 14:12-13  "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them."

Note: Even if Satan's followers, your neighbors or mine, kill us because we stand with Jesus, God shall resurrect them all, of us,  just as He did with His Son Jesus and others. Here's the why of Satan...

    Revelation 12:17  "And the dragon was wroth with the woman, [the True Bible following church] 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: Remember a remnant is as the original, thus the same doctrines that Christ put forth, 2,000 years ago, before men changed it all, to "Put Their stamp upon it"  I.E. Mary a CO-REDEEMER? How when she's still awaiting the resurrections with many others including King David?  [Acts 2:34]

     2 Timothy 2:15-19  "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;  Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity"

    Exodus 31:13  "Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my Sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you."

Note Seal, Sign,  share the same meaning much of the time.
      Hebrews 10:16  "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;"
       Revelation 3:12 " Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name."

Note: If any surrender to the will of The Savior, they shall be sealed, for they shall have overcame sin, with His strength! All the "over-comers",  and those that were not deceived, shall be......

   Revelation 20:4-6  "And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years."

Note: As there shall be a 2nd death, there must be a first death, agree? The first shall be for the non believers at the moment Christ returns to earth!....
        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: Christ's Reward?   All those who believe upon Him, His Own shall be His reward! How about YOU?" Will Y O U be among those who go "HOME" with Jesus?

       .Revelation 20:14-15  "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

   All who follow the commandments of men, Sunday Worship,etc, and work for and worship the beast, and all who reject Christ, shall NOT have their names written in the Book of Life, thus are blotted out, in the Lake of Fire and from all living memories!
 
   Revelation 1:7  "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen."

NOTE: This MUST be after all the tribulations are over, but ONE, the 7th TRUMP, which has Jesus coming in the clouds, and all who reject Him shall perish by the the Brightness of His coming.  At God's Glory shall all sinners perish.at His return this is the first death!
   So, who are the 144,000?  That also is known only to The Father.

                       Popular today is this 2105's March-April; both of which will see a eclipse, each with a blood red moon, that many think shall precede Christ's return..... but.....

    Matthew 24:21-22  "For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened."

    Note: As today there's great evil on this earth, we have not yet peaked, for each year is worse than the last, from nature, and from mankind's inhumanity to men! This event says, that if God does not shorten this time, the events will cause all humans to be lost.  THAT HAS NOT YET BEGUN!  But they shall come.

   Matthew 24:27-28  "For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together."
NOTE: At Christ's return, all the wicked shall perish, the first death, then as the Just leave earth with Christ, only Satan and his fallen angels are left on this earth for the 1,000 years, and they will not bury the dead, for their bones will have been picked clean by birds of prey.

     Matthew 24:29-30 " 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 then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory."


Note: there shall be NO SECRET RAPTURE, for every eye shall see Him, remember? Thus all living shall endure the tribulations. The Just shall witness it, the Unjust shall experience them!

   2 Thessalonians 2:8-9  "And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him,  [JESUS} whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,"

Note: All the tribulations, the Wrath of God, shall fall upon all the non-believers, just as the Plagues fell upon the Egyptians,  the non- believers, leaving  Israel , the believers, untouched.
WHY?

   2 Thessalonians 2:10-12  "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
WHO?

     2 Thessalonians 2:4  Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God."

     Remember Pope Leo XIII words? "We hold upon this earth, the place of God Almighty" a quote from his Encyclical Letter of June 20, 1894.

THE 144,000 OF REVELATION. Part 1.

     T here has been far too much paper and ink wasted on this topic, for much of it finds not a fit within The Word of God!
     Therefore, whats the point these people are pushing?  A Personal agenda? Seeking fame and fortune? Allow me to remind Y O U, dear reader, of a warning our Savior gave three times in the one chapter, and referred to deceptions twice more, all in the same chapter of Matthew 24.

    Matthew 24:4  "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you."
 
    Why do Y O U suppose I speak of this?
     It is a known fact, [if only by their actions and words they use] that most people never read the Bible, to any great extent, let alone STUDY IT!
     Again, why can I be so positive, about this?   Yet, again the Bible gives answer!
 
     2 Corinthians 3:18  "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."
    If, we as a Nation wish to cut our crime rates in half, then we should try to have half of us read the Bible on a daily basis!One can only learn, and gain knowledge and is that not a good thing?
 
     There's One faith, whose leadership, chooses to teach its members, that this number of 144,000 is ALL the people there's room for in Heaven. However, by shear coincidence,(?) only their "Elevated Ones", that are so chosen!  [Funny how that works out, right?]
     It must be that they have accidentally missed this passage....
     
     Revelation 5:11  "And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;"
     Revelation 7:9  "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;"

    Or, perhaps, they skip over these verses, because it does not fit within their Doctrines? Should they not install some windows in the walls of their Halls, if only to allow God's light/truth to shine inside? But these fine folks are not the only ones who shun windows, as do Saints and Lodges, check me out on this, and ask about the why. I did they say it saves money, in building costs, and heating and, Cooling and there's no windows to be broken! I guess that's one reason for their "Holy Undies"? {What's that all about?}

    I am not a math whiz, but even this dummy knows that 100 million people, is far more than 144,000, agree? Plus thousands of thousands, which no man could number?

     Revelation 7:1 " 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."
    Note: Winds are symbolic of war and strife, and the four corners means the whole earth. Meaning... we are not now, no matter how bad the worldly conditions are, we are NOT YET, in in the Times of Trouble, we are however in the woes of Matthew 24:3-8.

     Revelation 7:2-3 " 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."
       Revelation 7:4-8  "And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand."

     Now, Please think, of this passage, that our Jewish friends totally reject, at least those STILL waiting for the Messiah., Christ Jesus, to come for the first time!
      Matthew 23:38  "Behold, your house is left unto you desolate."
    Luke 13:35 " Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord."

     This is the reason the Jewish Temple leaders, in around 340 A.D. pronounced a curse on anyone who works the number given by Daniel, as it gives Christ's Baptism and His 3.5 yrs of Ministry, and well as His death on the wood, and then the rest of this 7 year span, the remaining 3.5 yrs., latter with the Stoning of Steven, the Gospel was to be taken to the Gentiles as...
     Daniel 9:24-27  "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.  Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.  And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.  And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate."
Note: In prophecy one day is one year,if no other, time frame is given,  [Numbers 14:34- Ezekiel 4:6],70 weeks = 70 x 7 = 490 years but the end of which the One week, or Seven years, in the midst of this week HE shall be cut-off. Christ died 3 and one-half years after His Baptism, and at the end of the second half of 3.5 years, The Church leaders led the stoning of Steven!

    Acts 7:59  "And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit."
    Acts 11:19  "Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only."
    Acts 13:46  "Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles."

Note: Because the Nation had rejected and called for His death, the Gospel, was given to the gentiles, but anyone Jew can still accept Christ as their Savior, and be saved, but as NOT as a Nation in the whole, since they stoned Stephen.

To compare the Revelation 7 list of tribal names to the list given in Genesis 49 :1-16, you'll find that three Tribes are not listed in Revelation. They are Simion, Dan and Naphtali, and the reasons given for this is found also in Gen.49.
     So, who is Manasses, of Rev.7:6? Why is His name listed? He is NOT one of the twelve sons of Jacob/Israel, so?
      Matthew 1:10  "And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;"

Note: This beginning chapter of Matthew shows the Human blood line from which Christ, came as a babe.
   
         2 Kings 16:20  "And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead."
Note: EZEKIAS and HEZEKIAH, are one of the same person.It was this King, that removed Israel from idol worship, and temple prostitutes. His Oldest son was Manasses.

        2 Kings 20:21  "And Hezekiah slept with his fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
       Genesis 46:20  And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him."

     The above are the two persons named Manasses or Manasseh

                             DOUBLE  PORTION.
Both sons of Joseph, received blessing from both their Father, as was the custom, as well as their Grandfather Jacob whom God renamed Israel.

    Genesis 48:19-22  "And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.  And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh. And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers. Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow."

Note: Ephraim "and his seed shall become a multitude of nations."  Which some have thought to mean England, upon whose empire the Sun never set, but????? Only God knows.
   Still others think that this son's generation became the U.S. of A. Again God knows.

                                SO WHO ARE THESE 144,000 PEOPLE?

     
     Revelation 7:3-4  "Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel."

    As of this day 1:2015, we are NOT facing the Tribulation bearing the times of the end, and Christ Return, As bad as nature is today and Satan's pouring out evil ideas upon men, we have not yet seen the apocalyptic versions yet. Therefore mankind is still under probation portion of God's Judgment, still to face its closing at the time of the International Sunday Worship Law, as this shall be humanity's last trail, and then Judgement is closed and set for all the living! No more asking for forgiveness, nor is repenting still an option. The die is cast, and all the living will have made their choice, to OBEY either God or men!
      That's the reason why for the SEALING....
   Revelation 7:4  "And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel."
Note: These people, all the 144,000 will at that time be living, and God will be their power and strength to preach HIS Words of Truth, to the whole world, sometime before people are forced to chose God or men' side. Remember the Bible story about the Egyptian Plagues? What event caused God to bring them on? The release from captivity of slavery, right? But the last one in the which the first born of all life, died, right? But what event brought God to that point?  The Pharaoh, made them work on the Sabbath day, the Seventh day!
     Isaiah 58:13  "If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honorable; and shalt honor him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:"

Note anyone who thinks they can Worship God on any they they choose, are standing on quicksand, They should remember all those Egyptians who died, as an effort to show just how seriously both God and us should take His Words. But how can we know this time-line?

     Revelation 7:2-3  "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."
   Yes all god's own are sealed, His Laws are written on their hearts and minds, and they as the children of Israel just before the Exodus, out of Egypt, saw all these things, yet God protected them from harm, so also will HE do at that time!For THAT time, or "The LORD's Day", and,  "The Day of the LORD, is not as the Universal Church claims the day of worship, but the day when God's Wrath is poured out upon all those who reject Him, or teach falsely, and not within the Holy Bible! {Such as " There is not contention between Genesis and Evolution, that's outright Blasphemy! Because it is calling God a lair!

Note: The whole Bible, in it's essence is but God's promise to Abraham, coming to fruition, in Christ.! Look....

    Galatians 3:18  "For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise."

Note: Laws of men, can NOT save Y O U, nor even the Laws of God! Only in and by His Son and God's Mercy, unmerited favor can anyone be saved.

     Galatians 3:20-28  "Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."
     Galatians 3:29 " And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise."
It is ONLY by YOUR acceptance and surrender your will to Christ, that Y O U become a SPIRITUAL ISRAELITE, thus a Child of the Promise, a Son or Daughter of God the Father!

     As there is not yet, today, the wrath of God being poured out, there are no 144,000 right now, in 2015 January. The deciding factor, as best as men can determine can be found in Revelation 13th chapter.When these two Beastly Powers, act in unison, and begin to pass National Laws forcing by law [All Governments "speak" by their laws] internationally, then the 144,000 shall make themselves known, by their actions, deeds and words, by God's Power! They shall do the work, "IN THE SPIRIT OF ELIYAH", just as John the Baptist was enabled, to make straight the path....to Christ!

    Revelation 9:1-4  "And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads."
Note: Does this say ONLY the 144,000 will survive the Tribulations?  NO! But ALL of these shall be with christ forever, but so shall many others!

      Revelation 16:1-3  "And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshiped his image. And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea."
NOTE: Please know dear reader, that much of the Bible is NOT in a chronological order, it therefore forces students to think, dig and search, within it. Does this not point to.....
   Revelation 13:12  "And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed."
  
QUESTION: If you have read my blogs, relating to the this power, The Little Horn, Rome, plus accepting the fact that MOST Christains worship on Rome's declared day Sun (god-worship) day You should by all means really study Daniel and note that kingdoms which put religion on par with governments the Bible refers to them as beasts!, Pagan Rome"morphed" into Pagan/Christian" Rome. Find my blogs, on "Secret Societies" and "The Man Behind the Mask." while keepi ng these two quotes in mind.

       "The Catholic National" ( a monthly magazine for Catholics) July, 1895: "The Pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus christ Himself, hidden under veil of flesh."
       Pope Leo. X111, in an Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894. "We Hold upon this earth the place4 of God Almighty."
Note Now tie this type of thinking with these three verses.......

    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."   {see Rev. 12:9 to see who the dragon is).
     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: Now Y O U know the who and the why most "Christians" observe Sunday in place of the 7th Day Sabbath!....look....
       2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 " Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God."

Note:  WHY? these leaders of this power, most certainly know the Word of God, so why do they actively work against Him?

       2 Thessalonians 2:10-12  "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
   Please find my blog on "The Year of 2014, and find Pope France's, comment on his Bishops requests to allow all homosexuals to worship in their Churches, and his reply?  "Who am I to judge"? Wish his predecessors thought the same way during the Dark Ages, where they killed millions in the name of God, saying "Believe as I say or die."  {Fox's "Book of Martyrs", and many others about Church History}
       
                           HEAVEN BOUND?

    Revelation 14:1  "And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads."
     John 6:27-29 " Labor not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.  Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."

Please join in Part 2.

THE WISE SHALL SEEK HIM. FOOLS?

MANY THANKS TO PASTOR C. MARTIN.
Taken from his sermon of Dec. 13, 2014.

      This title's question. . . .FOOLS?   let's see what God has caused to be written in His Word, shall we?

       This word "Fool" appears 62 times in the KJB R edition, none are complimentary, nor meant to be! for example;;;;;
      Proverbs 10:8-10  "The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.  He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known. He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall."
     Psalms 14:1  <> "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good."

   NOTE:  If anyone, fully and honestly looks at the questions, and there are legions of them, at the whole idea of evolution, would not one need to be fool, to swallow that man-made line? Just look at the "facts" they give to hold it up as fact!
1. In the fossil record, there is nothing at one "age" layer, then the very next layer we find millions of fossils from 1,000's of life forms, yet "THEY"  the "Intellectuals?"  then go on to say that evolution is an ever changing procession, and a progression of life from the single celled forms, right up to life forms we see today. So where is this progression shown in the fossil record?  IT'S NOT THERE!  [If a "fish"? is half way between a fish and a salamander, how can it be equipped to escape being lunch? Dead things do NOT evolve!
2. IF.... as "THEY" claim earth is 4.5 Billion years old,  and that ALL DNA life forms, have a self-healing property within, bones heal, cuts heal, tree limbs not fully severed keep on growing, then WHY. . .why is there still death?  Why has not the "Survival of the Fittest, and evolution not conquered all ills, and death?
3: The human, Second Law of Thermodynamics, says simply: "Anything put in motion, must degrade into non-motion and disorder, unless there is an outside force." as paraphrased. So if earth began spinning on its axis at just over 1,000 miles per hour, giving earth a 24 hour day, How come earth has not, as far as know lost even a second, UNLESS there is an outside force?
     Colossians 1:16-17  "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: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist."
NOTE: please look up the word consist, for its meaning!

   Most of us, know the "Christmas" story and the part of the three Wise Men, right? However, most only ASSUME, this number because three gifts are mentioned. This is the "Wise Men Mystery", for the Bible says only they came from the East. It does not tell us from where, but only the why, they followed A Star. Men and woman have "Invented more theories" about what celestial even this could be, than a small do has hairs! There's no room for that here.
     The fool will reject learning, but the wise man, will never cease to learn, to increase his knowledge base, thus gain wisdom.

      Proverbs 8:11  "For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it."
If you think God favors wisdom over the foolish thing just think....j in the O.T. fools appears 62 times, while wisdom is used 176 times, more than a 2;1 ratio. THINK!  Knowledge is NOT wisdom, we all know one or two people, who are very well learned, but do some of the most foolish, and unwise, things. Wisdom is the PROPER application of knowledge to fit the situation! Driving square pegs into round holes is not wisdom, but brute force.
     One clue we have is that no matter how far anyone is from God The Father, no matter if they be Pagan or whatever, He, will attempt to reach them, because He IS love, and that's His nature! Yet Satan has deceived most, into thinking all bad things, men do, or nature does, is "An act of God", yet it is he, Satan, whom God gives some lee-way, to give all trails,  to gather up storms etc. Why can this be said?
     God is The Creator, but the devil is the destroyer, and the only thing he can created is trouble for us. He can only hurt and kill, not heal nor raise the dead, nor create anything but disorder.
     2 Corinthians 12:7  "And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure."

    Back to the three wise men, one MUST know that Jews at this time, viewed all non-Jews as barbarians, not fit to be associated with Yet the simple fact, that they "Followed a star", must mean that they knew very well the way the Heavens look, at any point of the year. Thus something must have appeared to come together, by the human eye, and must have been so, for some time, as horse or camel travel is not as an airplane.
      The point is they made a huge effort to find the Christ Child, and knew the prophecy given within the God's Word, that they were looking for King born in Bethlehem [House of Bread.  John 6:33 "For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world." John 6:48  "I am that bread of life."  Genesis 48:7  "And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet there was but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same is Bethlehem."
     Numbers 24:17  "I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth."
      However, look at all the Jewish Temple Leaders, NOT A ONE, came to see The Christ-child, yet they knew, or should have known all the Bible's fore-telling about His coming, especially from within Daniel, who gives the exact year of His baptism, ministry and death. They did not visit, yet "Pagans", in their eyes, did!

     Hebrews 11:8-10 " By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God."
NOTE: Which city was this Abraham saw in a vision?
     Revelation 21:1-3  "And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God."
     John 14:1-7  "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him."
      Matthew 2:9-11  "When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh"

      When we, humans bow down, kneel, or lay flat on our belly, it is sign of submission, the surrender to God's Authority, and our Creator.Which is the opposite of  these peoples....

    Matthew 7:17-23 " Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

    We began this exercise with a statement and question, but look......

     Matthew 7:24-27  "Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it."

    Can we then extend this idea to living and planning out our lives?    YES! A wise man builds His life upon the Rock meaning Christ, but the fool builds his upon sand!
   
    How is this for a promise, from with the Book of Revelation, a book many preacher/teacher [ Rick Warren, Purpose Driven Life author and Church leader comes to mind] say it's not for us to study or use?
   
      Revelation 3:20-22  "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches."
   
     Matthew 2:12-15  "And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way. And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt: And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son"
     .Psalms 95:3-7 " For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.  The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.  O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,"

Note: Is anyone guaranteed tomorrow?
 NO!
Therefore today, now is the time to call upon Jesus, and ask HIM to teach YOU His ways, in love and truth.
By the way December 25th is but a Pagan day, for it is the winter Solstice, the say the Sun died and is reborn. John the Baptist was born , as Luke 1 shows nine months after our June 20 24th, conceived after The Course of Abia , the previous 7 days, or June 13-19th.and notice...
.
       Luke 1:36  "And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren."
       Luke 1:39-45  "And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah; And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth. And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy. And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord."

  NOTE: John the Baptist, at 6 months old, knew that the Christ Child was near!  DO Y O U now know the why of....
    Matthew 24:3-4  "And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you."

Dear READER:  yes Y O U, we are surrounded by Prophetic signs, since 1999, telling us the end of the age of flesh man is near! Chose ye this day whom YE will serve God or man? Sabbath or Sunday? God or the Beast's Image? Read of them in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21, and learn the Book of Daniel which is an "overlay" for Revelation.

Prophecy Watch..2014 "WHAT A YEAR". BY Pastor Doug Batchelor..

Again many thanks to Pastor Doug and his staff, for this article in Inside Report fourth Quarter, issue.

  Significant world events in 2014 affirm the prophetic times in which we live!

         WHAT A YEAR!

    Even the most casual observers among us know that 2014 was an important year in human history!  From the Ebola outbreak exploding on the scene in West Africa, killing thousands, to the state bans on gay marriage being struck down by the nation's highest court. { (j.b.) Sorry there is but One Supreme Being!] to know that SOMETHING is happening.
     New York Times writer Timothy Egan even suggests that 2014 has been a year particularly bent on conflicts rooted in religion, as the brutal Islamic state rampaged through the Middle East and Hamas and Israel lobbed bombs at one an other. Even Hollywood has been focused on religion lately, with one film critic saying 2014 was the "Year of the Bible," in popular film.

     But most notably, the head of the Catholic [ in Latin this word means Universal] Church, Pope Francis, has made unprecedented overtures to Protestants and all other religion groups towards unity, making him an ever popular figure { Like every one's Grand Pa] and taking center stage in both the religious and the political worlds.  [Please note each time government and church act as one persecution is the result just look at Islam today and and the Vatican  during the Dark Ages. Both said "Worship as I say or die! Millions did]
    What does it all mean?  Let's take a brief look back at 2014, and what happened.....

January 14:  Pope invites the end of separation between Protestants  [actually protesting against Catholic dogma, and their man-made traditions that they they say trump the Bible, Sun -day worship, Mary, man's immortal soul- die and go to heaven or hell, salvation by works, etc etc.] in a viral video message, saying "When we get to Heaven, God will sort out our differences!" Sorry, but earth life IS our testing time, for whom we obey God or the force of darkness, via men?. ]
   Mark 7:9  "And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition."

February 17: Pastor Jamie Coots, Pentecostal snake-handling preacher, dies from a snake bite when he refused anti-venom treatment.
    Luke 10:19  "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you."
Note: Satan represents the serpents and sin, what this passage informs any reader, is that in Christ, we can have freedom from sin, (our choice), right? Besides snakes and scorpions can't read scripture! Read the verses above and below vs 19 and see the truth.

February 28: Son of God movie released. Omits, one huge fact:  the Message of WHY Christ had to die.
      Isaiah 53:5  "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."

March 19: Nation of Guinea announces major outbreak of Ebola.
        Matthew 24:7  "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."
Note: STD's sexually Transmitted diseases, in 1900 medicine knew of less than ten, today its over 30, and most teens are infected, Pestilence? What about all the animal flues that have crossed over into the humanity, since the 1980's? What would you call HIV-Aids, that's still killing millions today? All due to sexual immorality, a personal choice each makes, right? Is Biblical, illicit sex worth dying for? Can you not see the reason for these laws, God has given us? He wants all to live!

March 28: The Movie Noah released: drifts significantly from the Bible's account, in fact this Noah is unrecognizable.

     Matthew 16:26 " For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?"

April 10: Movie, "Heaven is for Real", released, portraying a very Non Bible view of the life to come to believers.
     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: Man became a what? Thus a soul IS NOT an added feature!
    Genesis 3:19  "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."
Note: Who thinks God's telling us we go to heaven as dust? This began because men believed Satan's lie in Gen 3:4 "You will surely NOT die" That ONE little extra word changed God's truth into Satan's lie! John 8:40-46 .

April 15: Boko Haran,an Islamic terror organization, kidnaps 276 Female students in Chibok, Nigeria. In November 200 are still missing, Feared sold as sex slaves.  {Funny but they stone to death a woman who is not faithful, but men well that's different in the eyes of Allah???  How so human-like!]

April 27: Two popes canonized John Paul II, and JohnXXIII.   [Canonization usually reserved within this Little Horn Power, for those to whom a miracle can be attributed but customs and traditions can and do change, depending upon currant needs, right?]

May 29: Pope visits the Holy Land, and invited opposing leaders to the Vatican for prayers.  [ Was it not possible for him to pray with them right then and there?  NO that would not have made the evening news for weeks]

June 5: Major U.S. Evangelists meet the pope at the Vatican. One says, "I like that this pope is trying to make the church larger."

June 5: ISIS begins offensive through northern Iraq, [Location of ancient Babylon, which God declared would never be inhabited, but Saddam was in the process of restoring it.....] 
     Jeremiah 50:13 " Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues."  aiming to capture Baghdad. This is a Sunni [as are those in Arabia.] This self-proclaimed Islamic state, a Sunni extremists, jihadist group and condemned for mass atrocities by the U.N., including religious persecutions.  {as per their video, they are chasing the promises by Great Britain and France, for a Arab Nation, encompassing the "Greater" Syria, which is all of Iran, Iraq, Syrian Jordan and the whole Arabian Peninsula, and no Israel, for Arab help in W.W.1!]

June 19:Presbyterians voter to allow same-sex weddings in their church.  {Split from the British Anglican Church, which today, is now Catholic, fully so]
    Leviticus 20:13  "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."

Note: If you disagree with this point, please speak to God about your ideas, He'd love to hear from you!   Matthew 22:37-39   "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."

June 24:  Pope meets with Pentecostals, Kenneth Copeland and James Robinson. 
      {no doubt all prayed in the "spirit" , the tongues, which nobody understands, as they make up sounds as they go along! It's called Glossolalia, and was practiced by many  Catholic Priests for centuries! Tradition does not always follow the Bible does it?

     Revelation 13:3  "And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast."
NOTE: When we see things happening that are recorded near the end of the Book, why can we not see that the end of flesh man, is near, and that Christ's return is not far of? Those that obey shall live, those that obey men shall die, at His return! It IS that simple and has always been so!

    Revelation 20:5  "But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection."
NOTE: There are TWO resurrections, the first are the Just, then 1,000 years latter the unjust, shall rise in the same age and with the same ills ass they had at death. Not as the Glorious Body as Jesus has since the cross!  If you'd study, with prayers, the Bible you'd know all this!

July 8: Israel launches Operation Protective Edge against Palestine. More than 2,200 killed.
The terrorists, Hamas, funded by both the U.N {{schools & Food} and Iran weapons and materials, they were able to fire over 4000 rockets into Israel, yet due to the Jewish military effectiveness, the world condemns Israel for defending itself! Go figure! Hamas teachers, and parents teach their 2 year old children,  to repeat," I want to kill Jews, when I grow up!"Sadly the world says "OH, well it's only the Jews", right?

August 2: First American Missionary infected with Ebola, evacuated to Atlanta. Kent Brantly, a 33 year old from Texas contracted the virus at an Ebola care center in Liberia. He latter recovered.
    Matthew 24:5-8  "For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows."
Note: Are not STD's, HIV-Aids,  and Ebola and two other Hemorrhagic Flues, are they not PESTILENCES?  Plus,  Avian Flue {birds-chickens}, Equine Flue, [horse] Swine flue have all found a way to cross the Species Barrier, for the first time in the 21 Century! Is this not prophecy , coming to pass, right before our eyes?  THINK!

August 7: World Health Organization-- WHO, calls Ebola epidemic a n international emergency.

September 2: ISIS fanatic militants behead American journalist as part of brutal campaign.

October 3: The Movie "Left Behind", released espousing false , but very popular rapture theory.
Note:  Never, ever, take the words of man, or men, for the word of God, learn that for self! This silly stuff is based on human imaginations about Two working in the flied one is taken the other is left.. 
        Luke 17:36  "Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left."
      Luke 17:34-37  "I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.  And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together."
     If Y O U study the last chapters 17+ of Revelation, you'd know what this means! Only Satan and his fallen Angels will be left on this earth, without sun nor moon for 1,000 years, and the only ones with him are the unjust dead, who have not been buried, as he is not going to do that job. Satan, will have none to deceive during this millennium age.

October 6: U.S. highest court { Sorry only God I hold Supreme] clears the way for legalizing same-sex unions in five states.

  1 Timothy 1:10 "For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;"

Note: whoremongers in the Greek text the word is Pornos---meaning-prostitute and where we got the word pornography from.
Manstealers-- Aresnokoits [ar-sen-ak-ay'-tace] meanings-- Sodomite, Abuser of self with mankind. Can Y O U guess why millions have died and are still dying because of practice, this chosen life-style?

October 14: Catholic Bishops call for the church to welcome homosexuals, Pope says "Who am I to judge"?

Note: Given their history of abusing young males, I understand this calling, but do they? They all should study Ezekiel 3:16-27, and really take it to heart.

October 27: Pope states evolution is not inconsistent with scripture.
Note: If the top man, does not believe in Genesis, as written, why should or would ANYONE believe, anything he says concerning the rest of the Holy Bible?  Seems like a great month for non-believers right?

November 4: Ebola crises deepens with 13,208 cases and 4.960 deaths.

Novem ber 17: Pastor Rick Warren [Purpose Driven Book and Mega Church]  and Russell Moore [Southern Baptist Convention leader, meet with the pope for interfaith Vatican conference that included Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, Hindu, Taoist, and Sikh religions.

Note: Religious Stew? If we mix a little truth with much error, what shall the resulting mix be but error?
      1 Timothy 2:5 " For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;"
Does this not eliminate all other religions? Including all who insist on praying to Mary, as taught by men?

December 12: The movie, "Exodus, Gods and Kings released. Presents Moses inconsistent with scripture.

    Looking back over the year 2014, it would be well for us to be like the sons of Issachart who had understanding of the times to know what Israel ought to do.
     1 Chronicles 12:32 " And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment."
     How shall we respond, When God comes, as He did to Eve, and asks "What is this you have done?" May we, each not reply as she did, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." [Genesis 3:13.]
    Jesus warned us 2,000 years ago, near the end of this age, that pestilences would break out,  [Please know that the Flue pandemic after W.W.1 killed 20 million people around the world.]...
Matthew 24:7 "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."

  
   Are we not seeing a 'dormant" Little horn Power regaining world-wide power, again, rising to prominence and command the world to follow her?

      Revelation 13:3-4 " And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.  And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?"
QUESTION: Most know the Bible's Sabbaths begins on Sundown Friday the 6th day, and ends on Sun down of Saturday the 7th day of the week, so who or what do Y O U think all worship on Sun--day?  If you think any day is fine, please read Exodus 16th chapter very carefully!
   However, please know, that Gos in His Word, told us all these things, so that when they come to pass, we might believe Him, and thus not fear, nor worry! Still look at all those--Wake-Up Calls given to us during this year of 2014
