AMERICA,....LOOK WHERE WE'VE COME FROM AND WHERE WE ARE TODAY!

     Many of those of my age, mid-70's, well remember the old time movies, where they NEVER showed a husband and wife never in the same bed, but is their own  bedrooms!
     As time advanced, for the sake of reality (??) they began to show them in the same bed, but under the covers.
    The, again for the sake of reality (?), we could see, with very little imagination on our part, what they were doing, then the blankets were removed and anything goes, prevailed!
   So tell me, America, who did all this edify, but Satan?
   Then, our man in the White House, who thinks he's the King(?) who before he was elected told us that , he is fully against same-sex marriage, at least until he got into the the White House!
   Then, the NOT SO Supreme Court, {they also shall answer to a higher authority) decides as an other 9 humans did long ago that abortion was Constitutional, and well let's face it, babies do not vote but Mom's do! After all, it all due to PRIVACY, BUT A HUMAN BEING IN THE WOMBS, UNDER CONSTRUCTION HAS NO SUCH A RIGHT?
  Live, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, must have limitations due to age? Have Y O U found such a restriction? Fo4 I have not!

   I will hence forth, no longer use the term "Traditional Marriage" , since this NOT so Supreme Court, found that same-sex marriage is also Constitutional  {find it and tell me what and how this reads, please!}
As a few years have since passed this also can be called Traditional! So hence forth I'll refer to marriage, the LEGAL, in the Eyes of God,  kind, as Spiritual and or Biblical Marriage, ----- only!

    Now latest insult, to common decency and righteousness, is the President's..OPPS THE KING' S latest bombastic edict., BATHROOMS! Open to anyone at anytime for only the reason of so-called "Personal Comforts"!
   I'd like to be a "FLY_ON_ THE _Wall: so to speak when his two teenage daughters come running home shouting "Guess what Daddy, Mommy, we had a whole bunch of boys taking showers with us after gym class, and one of them asked it I wanted to touch it, I wanted to but I ran away! They told us they were all uncomfortable in the men's showers!

  Proverbs 14:12 " There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."
    Isaiah 5:20  "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"

  Sadly most people are in the frame of mind that says: "There is no right or wrong, or absolute truth,"  it all depends upon the times and the situation, right?"
   That's called SITUATIONAL  ETHICS!
   Sadly, this has been the guiding principle for all the Progressives in both parties!  And Satan couldn't be more pleased at his progress, since 1844's revelation of the Charles Darwin's rough draft, of and for evolution, that sprang from the mind of the  One who Opposes, Satan!

  I, at times wonder, just how willingly blind most of humanity chooses to remain! The Bible, yes, a big book, but even a child, with prayers asking for wisdom to understand, can, will and have! I know few have ever read, revelation 13 th chapter with prayer asking for the Holy Spirit to give the understanding and guidance, then they'd know, just how close all these Tribulations really are, plus they know that men have been lying through their teeth, about believers being RAPTURED AOUTA HERE BEFORE THEY BEGIN!
 Yet their own Biblical illiteracy, will not allow then to read and learn the the Truth of God, but they listen to the lies of men! Because-------

     Acts 28:27  "For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them."

     2 Timothy 4:3  "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

Meaning?: Teach them what they want to hear, not reality , unless its well sugar-coated!  However look----

     2 Peter 2:1 " But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction."

    Now PLEASE THINK!  If the false, teachers, those that teach stuff outside the Bible's truth, do so to their own destruction, where does that leave Y O U?   Please take a good look at your calendar, and count the days beginning with Sunday the FIRST DAY, of the week, so when is the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH? but on the Seventh day? Saturday, so why does most of the world's "Christians," follow the Vatican's law of Sunday sacredness? Why,indeed, when we have this........

    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."

Man received the year, from earth's rotation around the sun right?
The Month came from the Moon's orbit around the earth, agree?
The day we received by the earth's rotation on its axis, the 24 hr day.
But what Celestial even gives us the 7 day day week? NOTHING!  So why not 10 day or?
It is God's gift to us a day of rest, a Memorial for His Creation! as seen in Genesis 2:1-3 and Exodus 20 in the FOURTH COMMANDMENT Vs 7-11.
So I ask what is there in any man, to think that they can change God's laws?

       Daniel 7:25-26  "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. But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end."
The 4th is the ONLY  commandment that has a time element within it, as well as it being God's law! It was Pope Gregory XIII {The Great}that changed the day from sunset to sunset to mid-night to mid-night that we still have! {Gen. 1:5}

Blessed the 7th Day Sabbath only!
Sanctified it only!  Thereby making this day HOLY! something men can not do, nor change, yet men has done so nearly 1700 years ago! The age of a tradition does not make it right, nor truthful!

    Exodus 20:1 " And God spake all these words, saying,"

    Exodus 20:8-10 " 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:"

Please KNOW: This change was made by the same people who removed the SECOND COMMANDMENT in its entirety, and as all know, there's 10, they split the last one into two parts!  WHY"

Page 50 the Converts Catechism of Catholic of Catholic Doctrine Rev. Peter Geirmann,SC.SS.R

3 The Third Commandment.
Q; What is the third Commandment?
A: The Third Commandment is Remember that thou keep the Sabbath day.
Q: Which day is the Sabbath day?
A. Saturday bis the Sabbath day.
Q: Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday?
A: We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic church transferred the solemnity from
Saturday to Sunday;

   There, in their own words is the reason for the change, and even they admit there is not ONE VERSE in the entire Bible that shows God changed the day from the MEMORIAL OF HIS CREATION FOR US!.

   YES BUT. . . .but that was for the Jews only, was it not?

The word Jew comes from the tribe of Judah, A son of Jacob and the first mention of the word Jew in the Bible is in Ester, almost 2,000 years after Creation week!  Besides look------

  Mark 2:27-28  "And he said unto them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath."
 I know not about others but I spell Jew as J--E   W-- not as M...A...N! how about YOU?

  Then how do all those who obey man's Sunday Sacredness edicts, act upon this verses?

    In Jesus' [He is the Author John 1:1-3,14.] own words!  John 14:15 " If ye love me, keep my commandments."
    
     Revelation 14:12 " Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

      Revelation 19:10 " And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."

  I wonder how many non Adventists have ever hear the term "Spirit of Prophecy"?   How many know that about 30% of the word of God is Prophecy?

Those who are regular readers to my blogs know what this means, to all who know not learn it by

THE ULTIMATE SPACE JOURNEY.Mark Finley and Signs of the Times mag. 9/2013.

My many thanks to both Mark and This Magazine. John B
[order: sings@pacificpress.com]

   Mark Finley says that a day is coming when we won't have to be Astronauts in order to explore our own galaxy, or any other!

Note: (jb) Won't that be something? Our Father will brings each one of us "Up to speed", for total navigation skills, as it a huge Cosmos out there, right? We, with Jesus, will visit other worlds, and other of God's children, to give witness, to God's Grace, Forgiveness, and Redemption, that they have not ever experienced!

    On April 17, 2012 the space shuttle Discovery bolted on top of a 747 from NASA' s aircraft, soured over the Nation's Capital in a final salute before landing at Dulles International airport outside of Washington D.,C. Thousands of people lined the National mall to catch a glimpse of the famed spacecraft as it headed for the airport and its final resting place in the Smithsonian Institute.
    It's rather difficult to imagine that Discovery traveled a total of 148,221,675 miles on only 39 space missions. That's equivalent of 311 round trips to the Moon. What an incredible accomplishment! No wonder so many people wanted one last look at America's most beloved Craft.
    There's something fascinating about space travel. It does capture the human imagination. It stimulates our thinking. It fuels our dreams for a better tomorrow. Maybe--just maybe-- there are answers to our deepest questions out there beyond the stars.
    Some private companies are already advertising trips into space and booking seats on rocket ships. A March 24, 2006, Associated Press article on space travel made this intriguing observation: "If floating weightless and peering down on a shimmering blue earth sounds appealing, you might consider being a space tourist. As long as you've got a fat wallet.."
Note: May I add make that two fat wallets?
   
THE ULTIMATE SPACE JOURNEY.

     There's, however another space journey that's open to more than a few astronauts. It's a journey anyone WILLING, to take, and it SHALL bring each of those, face to face with destiny!

    What's more, we will not need to build any type of space-craft, in order for us to take this trip. We'll travel beyond our Solar system, beyond even our own Milky Way Galaxy, right through Orion's empty space, into the heart of the Universe. But....but it must begin with Some one's return!

   Jesus Christ, The Messiah, The One who paid such a remarkable visit to this earth near two thousand years ago, is set, real soon, to pay us another visit. This time, not as a new born, but as KING of Kings, and LORD of Lords,  [Revelation 19:16] And the Heavens will rumble with a great shout as trumpets blast and millions of angels sing out.

   1 Thessalonians 4:16  "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: "

   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."

    Imagine, Jesus and the Heavenly Host swoop down in  a cloud {cloud is symbolic a great multitude of Heavenly Angels] encircling the earth so fast, that every eye shall see it! The very ground shakes, [earthquakes that shall level all man-made structures] mountains will slide into the seas, Graves will split open and all those who died, "sleeping in Christ Jesus" will be resurrected, and receive their "Glorious Bodies" as has Jesus, and just as immortal as He!
   The Faithful believers who are alive at that time will also be changed.----

    1 Corinthians 15:50-55  "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. 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?"

    1 Thessalonians 4:13-18  "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.  For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words."

  All believers, who obey because of their love for Jesus, shall join the resurrected ones and all shall be lifted up to meet Jesus in the air! Jesus then will become as our Noah''s Ark, and take us to our HOME!

LIFE BEYOND THE STARS.

  NOTE (JB)   NASA' S  dream is to find life on another planet.  A world that is suitable for human habitation. But I ask, "What's the point"? Until we allow God's Holy Spirit to transform our characters, we shall pollute our new world with evils, just as we have done to this world! It is for this very reason we have this caution-----

     John 17:15 " I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil."

Note: What does this do to man's doctrine of believers being "RAPTURED"  OUT BEFORE THE TRIBULATIONS BEGIN? But that we should be as ONE!----

    John 17:22-24  "And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world."

Note: That we all may be as ONE With Jesus, why?-----
    Matthew 7:13-15  "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:  Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."

Note: Most of the Protestant churches today hold many false doctrines inherited from Rome:
!. Man has an immortal, eternal soul.  [Genesis 2:7 shows us a soul in a living being]
2. Die and go to your reward
3. Sunday sacredness, in place of the Bible's Seventh day Sabbath!
None of these can find a fit in any so far printed Bible! Thus it's man's words based upon human traditions.
However even a 2000 year old observed tradition, age does not correct error, agree? LOOK-----

    Mark 7:13 " Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye."

Note: The three above examples are but a few of the many false doctrines found in churches today!

     2 Peter 3:7  "But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men"

Note: a close reading will show anyone who can read and understand, that 1. There is no eternal punishments until AFTER Judgment. Thus no going to one's reward at death.
2. reserved unto fire.. means the Rev.19's Lake of Fire that covers all earth, to cleanse, to purify, and to remove both sin and death.
3. Perdition means liable to die this is the second death of the ungodly men.------

     .Revelation 21:8  "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." [Revelation 2:11; 20:6,14; ]

   This is the great event Jesus told us to look forwards to in---

    John 14:1-3 " 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."

     1 Thessalonians 4:16  "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:"

  NOTE:  When we earthlings think about journeys from one Galaxy to another, the distances are overwhelming. How do we reach a star that thousands of light years away? Science is at a quandary, they can't conceive a speed greater that the speed of light! But our own Milky Way Galaxy is ten million + light years across, and that is still in our own back yard so to speak!
LOOK   Speed of Light = 282,272 miles per second!  282,272 x 60 seconds = 16,936,320 miles per minute. =  X 60 minutes or 1,016,179,200 miles per hour, x 24 = 24,388,300,800  that's in one day, my little calculator gave me error message when I tried to find how far in one year, now take, the fact, ten million years just to travel across our own Galaxy! Then know we are still in our own back yard!

  However Jesus' return removes all these obstacles, for HE is The One Who created all those stars, and calls each by their name-- this God, can transport us through the Universe as fast as He wants to! Distance will not matter, Black Holes will not matter, even the light-speed barrier will not matter why? It's God The Father Who beckons us to come to Him and home! We will arrive all together and walk on the streets of gold, as pure and as transparent as the finest glass.Now that's the Ultimate Space Journey, agree? But there's one more journey that is destined.   [Revelation ------

    Revelation 21:1-2  "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."

OUR FINAL RETURN.by John B

       What may be a surprise to the Biblical Illiterates, is that this journey will not be a ONE-WAY trip!

    Matthew 5:5 " Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth"
   The above is part of Christ's Sermon on the Mount, the greatest Sermon earth ever head to date!.Yet this was foretold by David----

      Psalms 37:11 " But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace."
Note please find and read the next verse, verse 12! This puts our time-line, right at the very end of Revelation's 1,000 years, and Satan's removal of the "Chains of circumstance," as he will again have all the resurrected evil doers, and non-believers to deceive again. They surround the the Holy City....

   Revelation 20:7-8  "And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea."

Satan and all his will try to take by force what was offered for free, Christ's salvation by attempting to eat from the tree of life, thus gain eternal life. However-----
 
   Revelation 20:9-10  "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. 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"

That dear reader, is the First and the very LAST time the Hell Fires are in use! It's use also cleanse earth from human pollution, and removes all traces of our previous existence, then and only then will human eyes see God creating as He RE-CREATES the Garden of Eden across all this earth!.

   To counter another man-made religious myth, about sinners burning forever and ever in the hell-fires look--

    Malachi 4:1  "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."

NOTE: Yes Satan and all evildoers and non-believers shall be burned up, but know this fact: Brimstone is sulfur and that burns at around 2300 degrees F. now how long can a body of flesh and blood last at those temperatures, seconds?
  Next: In order for the evil ones to be burning forever God has to give them eternal life, does that make sense for a God who gave us, because He loves us so much,His only son Jesus Christ to die for our sins?

   Malachi 4:3 " 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."

Where Sodom and six other cities and towns set a blaze with eternal fire?  Are they still burning today? NO!
Eternal in the sense of punishing, are meant to last only as long enough to do the job, besides when a fire has run out of fuel, what happens? Ashes do not burn, right?

To finish Mark's thoughts:

   Jesus assured us that He's coming soon---
   Revelation 22:7 " Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book."
   ONE day, all HIS saints will be taken into His loving arms!
    One day we shall journey to Heaven [Heaven is wherever The Father is!] in an angelic craft of light.
   One day we shall all walk on that Holy city whose streets are paved with gold.
   One day we all shall be able to personally thank Jesus for taking what we deserved, while giving us what               He deserved.
    One day all of humanity, who has ever lived shall know God's truth! Sadly for most it shall be too late!
   ONE day we shall look upon THIS earth made new.
  ONE day we shall live with God and be His sons and daughters.
   SO be ready.
   So look up as your redemption draws neigh.  . Luke 21:28  "And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."

Please read all of Luke 21, Matthew 24 and Mark 13, to learn of "THESE THINGS!"

Note:YOU are special in The fathers eyes!  Think of all the millions of sperm cells from your biological father, it was Y O U, that made the journey to the your  Mom's egg and fertilized it. millions of your possible brothers and sisters never came to be born, BUT YOU DID, by God's choice! HE has a place for you and YOU alone, wont you reach out to Him in prayer in the Holy name,  of Jesus Christ?

Thanking YOU for your time

THE PURPOSE of GOD'S JUDGMENT in HEAVEN. Signs of the Times Mag,3/2016

May thanks to this magazine and author Marvin Moore.  (JB)

THE SENSATIONAL O.J. SIMPSON TRIAL..

   A murder trail in Los Angeles California, was called "the trail of the century". Simpson was accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman. This trail begin with the swearing in on November 3, 1995, with a stunning verdict of not guilty, months latter.

     A Key part of the evidence brought by the prosecution was a dark leather glove that had been found at the crime scene. The defense attorney, Johnnie Cochran, persuaded the prosecution to have Simpson put on the glove. Simpson tried to get it over his hand, but couldn't.

Note: They had him put on a plastic clove first, now Y O U try to put on YOUR leather glove over top of a plastic glove!

All this theater led Cochran to explain, out load, "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit"----and that's exactly what the jury did! While an estimated 100,000 people watched and listed to T.V, and radio!

GOD'S TRAIL.

   As sensational as Simpson's trail was, however, It doesn't come close to matching a trail in Heaven that will take place just prior to Christ's second Coming.  Daniel wrote of it this way----

      Daniel 7:9-14 " I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.  I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

    Daniel 7:9-10  "I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened."

     The "Ancient of Days, is clearly God ,The Father, and in ----

        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;"

    A thousand times a thousand is a million, and the thousand times ten thousand ids a 100 million, which makes for a sizable "Jury" Agree?

    One of the key points, so far, are in the words:  "The court was seated, and the books were opened."

Daniel may have thought of a leather scroll, but we can think a computer. However the actual recording is more than possibly far beyond our present levels of knowledge.

     The point being that evidence was brought forth and it had been recorded prior to this court scene These "BOOKS", contain the record of every one's life's moments bot the righteous------

     Daniel 12:1  "And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book."

     Malachi 3:16 " Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name."

     AS WELL AS THE WICKED-----

     Revelation 20:1-3  "And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season."

    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."

     CONDEMNATION AND VINDICATION..

   Two issues stand out in this judgment scene. First the wicked are condemned and God's people are vindicated.

Note: At the time of Jesus' return, there shall be ONLY TWO camps of believers:  A. Those who believe obey  God!   B. Those who believe in men and obey the laws of men!  The latter are lost!  However please make note, that ALL who are LOST have so CHOSEN to be lost! Not ONE person will be cast into the Lake of Fire, who truly does not want to be there! It's each person's own choice, as life without God is not possible, but He loves us so much He'll give us what we want, gone from His presence!

    THE WICKED in Daniel's prophecy are represented by a "Little Horn," power, first noted in ----

    Daniel 7:8 " I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things."

     Daniel's angelic interpreter spoke of----

    Daniel 7:21 "I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;"

    this points to the persecutions of God's people that's was inspired by demonic forces and carried out by Satan's human accomplices. It's been going on ever since Adam and Eve were cast out of the Eden, and it will so continue until Jesus returns!

THE RIGHTEOUS.   In Daniel's Prophecy are referred to as "The Saints," and they can expect no mercy, and that the little horn [The Vatican] would wage war against them until Jesus returned.

     Daniel 7:22 " Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom."

    So we have set the scene, and have the wicked on one side and righteous on the other. After a careful review of "Heaven's Books," by the angels God will pronounce His final judgment including the eternal destiny of both His and Satan's people!

    DOMINION.

    The Second issue is this drama is DOMINION. To understand this dominion we have to go back to a series of events in heaven that occurred 1,000's of years earlier. God had an angel that held a very high position....

     Ezekiel 28:14 " Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire."

    This high angel, was given many great gifts, in voice and in looks as well as responsibility. But this angel Lucifer, became to proud of his attributes---

   Ezekiel 28:17 " 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."

    Isaiah informs us that Lucifer,aspired to be like the Most High! In short, this Created Being wanted to be like and as God----

     Isaiah 14:11-15  "Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!  For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit"

     How do we know this event occurred in Heaven?.

    Revelation 12:3-4 "And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.  And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born."

    Revelation 12:7-9  "And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."

Note: Actually it helps the stories flow if we think of these few verses, to be placed in-between Genesis 2 and 3 chapters! Especially when we think of Satan using the serpent as a Ventriloquist used his dummy!, in Genesis 3:1-5.

   Thus to put in terms of the world, Satan wanted God's DOMINION, and to be worshiped!  Via his deceit and deceptions he was able to gather to his side-----1/3rd of all the angels  Rev. 12:3-4..

    You need but to watch the nightly news, to see that Satan, as the devil still rules, thus has Dominion of this earth! Even though most think he's not real! Well where do YOU think ISIS received all their ideas from, Santa Clause, or the Tooth Fairy?   This brings us to Daniel 7 : 13 and 14.---

     Daniel 7:13-14 " I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man [Jesus Christ] came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

    So this Judgment in Heaven shall remove the dominion that Satan has held over this earth, and give it back to Jesus. He has yet to take on this dominion of our world. That shall happen at His Second Coming. However, the legal authority to take dominion over the world was given to Him at the conclusion of Heaven's Judgment, and God's angles participated in that decision! We must know, that Satan was totally defeated at the Cross and with His resurrection three days later! Yet even judged and sentenced, Satan's end will not come until after the 1,0000 years he spends on this earth during the Millennium [Rev.20:2-3]

WHEN WILL THIS JUDGMENT TAKE PLACE?

Even, most nations, do not punish a person, until after they have judged right,? So die and go to hell is not Biblical but of human tradition only!

    As mentioned previously, this is scheduled to take place just before Jesus Return. There's two ways we can know this.

World History:  The first eight VERSES of Daniel 7, speaks to four great beasts, that represent four great kingdoms of earth.. They shall arise out of the earth   VS17. The Bible goes to I.D these four as Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome. Rome was invaded by the so-called Barbarians of Northern Europe, the Germanic tribes and the Franks and the Anglo-Saxons, as they invaded to the south in A.D. 250 to 500 A.D. The Little Horn is represented the Medieval Christianity, which sorely persecuted all who opposed
Rome. Best known as the Spanish Inquisition, but this was throughout all of Catholic nations.

    Babylon from whom all the other conquerors absorbed her customs and religious practices, all the way up to Rome even today! However just as Satan saw that spilled blood only created many new Christians, he decided to deceive them by blending Paganism with Christianity, and in that he's had great success, but the torture ceased in about the late 1700's and Heaven's Judgment scene comes in after that in Daniel's Prophecy. That's the first clue that this Judgment shall take place in Heaven PIOR to Christ's return.   

     When is Dominion given to Christ?
   
    We get the second clue from the careful reading of this Dominion that's given to Christ in Daniel 7:13-14--

     -Daniel 7:13-14  "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

Please NOTE: The above is one of many, many reasons why the phrase: "I am a New Testament Christian, is as empty as a V.8 engine running on only four cylinders, one has only 1/2 the picture! Yet  both speak to the very Creator God! With the very same 10 laws, still in full effect, and, they shall always so be! For they are God The Father's character!

  Now some Christians have PROBABLY understood the "Giving of this Dominion" to happen at Christ's Second Coming because of the statement is Verse 13, that "A son of man" came "with the clouds of Heaven"
 Jesus Himself said that He will return to earth" with the clouds of the sky"----
     

     Matthew 24:30  "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"

   However Daniel's 7:13 has---- "THE SON OF MAN APPROACHED THE ANCIENT OF DAYS, ON CLOUDS therefore this CANNOT be His Second coming. Further-more, all this in Daniel 7, is taking place in Heaven, and thus is but a description and its interpretation--occurs in Heaven, Whereas Christ's second Coming shall occur in earth's near orbit, His feet never touching this earth, at this time!.

Therefore in Daniel's 7 pictorial scene, of the Judgment, the Second coming has not yet happened, nor written off, in this scene.

SATAN'S STRATEGY.

   Satan has relied upon lies and deceptions from the the beginning is sin, within him, note Genesis 3:----

    Genesis 3:3 " But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die."

Eve quoted God inaccurately, He said "Do not eat" never said anything about touch ---

      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".

However Satan said this----

   Genesis 3:4-5  "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."

Note: Many are they that have swallowed this hook, line and, sinker, in this thinking and teaching: "Die and go to heaven, and then after the resurrection the body and soul will be re-united!"

   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: What does this say? A soul is a living being, human or animal, and is NOT a ADDED ON SOMETHING!

    Ecclesiastes 9:4-6  "For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion. 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. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun."

Note: NEVER, ever take the words of men for the Word of God, learn it for yourself!

     Satan, soon reverted to his more norm, by using force, and murder,, by his usage of his proxies, mankind! Read the story of Moses, the reason he was placed in a basket, was that the Pharaoh, fearing the Israelite's, ordered the death of all new born male children, by tossing them into the Nile river! From here on Satan used pure force, until the latter parts of the 1700's, always in the "Name of Christianity"! Millions were burned alive, tortured to death, an ed killed by the sword, over all that time, where-ever the Papacy ruled! In fact the LAST court of Inquisition closed its doors in Peru, in 1890!  {Fox's Martyrs, Church History by Abijion (sp?) 

    During Christ's life on earth and The GOD-Man, He met satan in the wilderness following 40 days of His fasting and praying. At the end of which Satan came to Him and attempted to temp Him three (3) times--

[ Matthew 4:1-11] 

     Matthew 4:8-9  "Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me."

Note: Know now why and how some humans have an ego the size far larger than themselves!  Look----

        Pope Leo XIII in an Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894 said this:

"We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty."    Even John Paul II said the same thing!

Note: they all have egos as large as Satan's read Revelation 13::1-4 and know they why!

     2 Thessalonians 2:3-5  "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. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?"---------

Note:  It it this Jesuit Pope Francis, who called for and led the Paris Summit on "Climate change" that puts nation's Sovereignty under the U,N. and the Popes, in fact the London England chapter of the Jesuits, proc;aimed this made the Pope, the world's Moral leader, and He called for all work to cease on Sunday, the day of Pagan Sun worship, and called it a DAY for Earth to rest! {Mother earth- Ghia, that's Pantheism!}{NEW WORLD ORDER-ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT AND THE POPE RULES JUST AS BEFORE!  Google Jesuit's Oath of service, and know  with ,This Society of the friends of Jesus, He is not in want of enemies!}

   Revelation 13:7-9  "And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. 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. If any man have an ear, let him hear."

NOTE: THIS IS WHERE WE ARE, in Bible's time line , so how much time do WE EACH have to chose right or wrong? God or men? Before the Tribulations hit the non-believers and the wicked ones? I am not trying to scare you, only trying to bring you to reality! BECAUSE, 90% + of all Prophecy has come to pass as written and on time, so what makes anyone think the last 10% will not happen? Because many do not believe? Then why did God save only 8 humans from the FLOOD in the Ark He had Noah build?

OH, YES I know man's sciences [ you know the Search for Truth!] as long as God is not mentioned! I want all to be Saved for Eternal life just as Heaven does. The Father has chosen YOU, to be born and has a special spot in Heaven for Y O U! A spot no other can fill!

------   Satan had a very clever strategy. He had gained Dominion over the world {DOMINION = A King and his kingdom!  Which was one reason Christ had to die to "BUY IT BACK"] due to the "FALL" into sin by Adam and Eve, and now he was offering it to Jesus, under the condition that Jesus worships him!

Satan used the very same things to temp Jesus as he did Eve, The Lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life.Thank Goodness Jesus told him to get lost! If He, Jesus has failed the human race would be extinct, long, long ago!-----

    Matthew 4:10  "Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

   How grateful can we be, or should be, that Jesus gained the victory and defeated Satan on the cross, even while his proxies kept shouting "He says He will save us all but He can't even save Himself!"

   Jesus, who regained Dominion over this world, the hard way, by His perfect life,- through His 7 in all Trails his scourging, and His crucifixion, and resurrection!

Note: Sadly it was His resurrection man used to change the day of the Sabbath for the Seventh Day {Look at your calendar!] to the First day of the week, right?   LOOK----

    

     Daniel 7:24-26 "And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. 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. But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end."

Praise God that Jesus resisted Satan and regained dominion of the earth the right way!, not by lies, deceptions nor force! In fact God uses only Love and Truth, Satan uses all but those two!

   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: Rev.12 :7-9 will ID the Dragon as Satan the devil who what?  HIS POWER, HIS SEAT, in Rome from Pagan to Pagan/Christian mix!  Read Daniel 7th chapter, here the beast's are earthly kingdoms that ruled much of earth uniting religion and state into one, are revealed! This record agrees with human recorded history! However the "Scripture Lawyers"  try to have you believe the Book of Daniel was written after Christ instead of nearly 500 years before His, earthly, birth!

Thanking Y O U, for your time.

#28 last in series. THE NEW EARTH. Signs of the Tims 3/2016 "We Believe"

My Thanks to this magazine and all their works: JB.

WHEN SIN-SINNERS -DEATH ALL-----

-----Have been destroyed, at the end of the Millennium, the fires, that engulfed all earth, consuming them and make purify the earth, it will erase all trace and evidence of sin, and human pollution, as well. Then God will RE_CREATE earth as He intended at the beginning, and the whole earth will become EDEN!

    2 Peter 3:10-13 " But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 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."

       Revelation 21:5 " And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful."

   In this earth made new, people will find many reasons for joy, delights that are beyond our comprehension here for....

    

    1 Corinthians 2:9  "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him."

    Isaiah 64:4 " For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him."

   Though we cannot imagine in the slightest the glories that God has prepared for His redeemed, the Bible offers a surprising amount of information about His eternal Kingdom.

WHAT WILL HEAVEN BE LIKE?

    We will have dwellings prepared for us by Jesus, in  the house of His Father-----

    John 14:1-3 " 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."

  Plus we shall----

    Isaiah 65:17  "For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind."

    Isaiah 65:21-22  "And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands."

   With minds that are no longer benumbed by sin, nor limited by time, we all shall be in a position { all the Saints] to investigate the wisdom of the Universe that is without stain or spot!

   The pain  and the sadness that we deal with every day will no longer exist because----

    Revelation 21:4-5 " And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful"

      Just think of it! No more crime, injustice, death or illness, as many say, "No More Aids, seeing, chewing, walking, hearing, aids, ever, for anyone!" No more Md's, funerals, nor grave yards, or mortuaries, ever again! No more police, nor courts, jails or lawyers ever!  We will forever have those we love close to us, even The Father and The Son!

     The corruption in nature caused by sin, shall be no more, and our physical bodies shall be forever young and mature, all vegetation shall be evergreen, and nothing shall ever die!  LOOK------

     Isaiah 65:25  "The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD."

  The New Jerusalem, which by then will have been set upon this earth,.....

   

    Revelation 21:2  "And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband."

    Revelation 21:23  "And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof."

    .Revelation 22:2  "In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations."

Note: We are not told if The Tree of Life, is the very same one that Adam and Eve ate from or that God destroyed it and created anew one in Heaven! But we shall have one nevertheless!

   God's people will not get tired nor be in need of  nightly, sleep.

FACE TO FACE WITH GOD!

    But beyond any material gratification that we will receive as heirs of His Kingdom, will the the supreme privilege of direct communication with both the The Father and The Son plus The Holy Spirit!-----

      1 Corinthians 13:12  "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."

     From the book "The Great Controversy" P. , 678----

       

    "And the years of eternity, as they roll by, will bring richer and greater and still more glorious revelations of God the father and God the son. As our knowledge increases, so will our love and reverence and happiness increase. The more men learn of god, the greater will be their admiration of His character become. As Jesus opens before us the riches of redemption and the amazing achievements in the great controversy with Satan, the hearts of the ransomed thrill with more reverence and fervent devotion, and more rapturous joy, they sweep the harps of gold and ten thousand times ten thousand and thousands of thousands of voices will unite to swell the mighty chorus of praise."

From "The Desire of Ages" P.26.

    "The work of redemption will be complete. In the place where sin abounded, God's Grace much more abounds.. The earth itself, the very field that Satan claims as his own, is to be not only ransomed but exalted. Our little world, under the curse of sin the one dark blot in the glorious Creation, will be honored above all other worlds, in the Universe of God. Here, where The Son of God tabernacled in humanity; where the King of Glory lived, and suffered and died,--- here, when He shall make all things new, the Tabernacle of God shall be with men, and they shall be His people, and He shall our God, and dwell with us. And through the endless ages as the Redeemed walk with their LORD, they will praise Him for His unspeakable Gift, EMMANUEL, 'God with us' "
