Daniel Our GREATEST HISTORY TEACHER.


    THE BIBLE' S BOOK of DANIEL, has to rate as one of the greatest history books of all time.
not only does it foretell all the major powers after Babylon, while it was still THE major power, but each successive power that grew, as it influenced GOD' s people.
    It foretold the demise of Babylon, and the rise of the Medes-Persian union, and then the Greek empire and the two Roman empires, one pagan one religious.

    However lets look at chapter 11. Which in Verse 1-2, tells us Babylon's gone and the Medo-Persian empire is near its last days.
3-13 Alexander the Great rise and fall, and the four heads that came out of this empire.
14-30 The rise of the Iron Kingdom, Pagan Rome
31-39 The Church of the Dark Ages and ; the building of Papal Rome
36-39 The rise of Atheism
40-45 The reestablishment of Papal Rome, and descriptions of the last days leading to the climax of human history in the flesh bodies, until the Advent of Christ Jesus.

Daniel 11:1-2. "Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him. And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia."

We need to back up to Daniel 10:20-21, as all this is GOD' s Angel speaking to Daniel to make him understand his previous vision.
Daniel 10:20-21. "Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince."

    Gabriel, told Daniel of the four kings that are to follow Darius [Cyrus in the Greek]. They were, Cambyses, Gaumata, and Darius 1st. and Xerxes, who was also known as Ahasuerus, from the Book of Ester. Ahasuerus was proud of his wealth and attacked the Greek Cities-states, who united and saved their freedom. {Remember the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae?]

Daniel 11:3-4. "And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those."

Alexander the Great [Daniel 7:6 as the symbol beast] amassed the then largest empire to date, with great speed [Leopard/4 wings for speed, and 4 heads = four generals & their nations after his death]. The four:
Seleucus- E Turkey/Lidia, to India and Afghanistan, of today.
Ptolemy- Egypt, S. Holy Lands. [it was his seed that gave history Cleopatra, of Julius Caesar and Mark Anthony fame]
Lysimicus- S. Turkey/lydia, Lebanon, Syria, N. Israel.
Cassandar- N.W. Turkey, Macedonia, Greece.

  Throughout this chapter the "King of the North" and the "King of the South" will be spoken of many times. The best way to picture this is from a Jerusalem as the center, thus all land north and south, are spoken as belonging to the respective kings. The King of the South, has always been the Pagan, the atheistic kingdom, not so for the North,which has been given a blend of Paganism and religion from Christ.This chapter shows GOD' s people under attack from both the North's false religion and the South's atheistic beliefs.

Daniel 10:14. "Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days."

NOTE: This vision of Daniel's, will take us right up to the RETURN of Christ, who will NOT have His feet touch earth, at this time! {The imitator's [SATAN] feet shall} The term God's People referred to the Jews, but after the Stoning  death of Steven Acts 7:59. "And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit." This no longer referred to the Jews as a Nation, but to individuals who accepted Christ as Lord and Savior just as all others, GOD' s People. Spiritual Israel.
   However in 11:36-40, the King of the South will not be literal Egypt, but as an evil power against God's people, and will destroy many of them. [Dark Ages of W.Europe.   Why and how?

Revelation 13:13-15. "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed."  [Read John 3:16. and who kills whom?]

NOTE: Do you dear reader, think that all those images of Mary in various places, and or all those bleeding blood or olive oil stone and wood carvings or paintings are a miracle from heaven or From the hand of the master deceiver Satan?  Please think! John 18:20 . "Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing."

   Why is Satan the ONE who,opposes? Isaiah 14:12-14. "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."

     He is the Devil, because he chose to rebel against God, as he has a free-will to chose just as all people do, for this reason we can say Chose Christ a chose life, anything else one chooses death! Is is NOT complicated!
Thus the King of the North, depends upon the time frame of history, be it Babylon, Assyria, Greece or either of the Roman powers, as each of these kingdoms have and will appose God, in  some fashion, physically, or with doctrinal, deviations from GOD' s Word!

Jeremiah 25:9. "Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations."
   This was a physical capture by Babylon of Judea and Dan, because they rebelled against God, with their idolatry. Since the rise of both Roman powers she has been the King of the North, in a spiritual sense, as the physical Babylon is nor more. Yet let's look at God' s Word shall we?

Revelation 17:4-6. "And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:  And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.  And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration."

1. Which religions-power is known for it's tremendous wealth, and Flowing robes of Purple and Scarlet?
2. Religious fornication, means idol worship. [most know not that for a building to become a Cathedral, it must have a "holy" relic buried under the alter, bones, hair ect of a man-made 'saint'?]
3. Pray to and for the dead?
4.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."

    Sadly there's only one system, that these fit within.The King of the North.

Daniel 11:7-14 Concerns Egypt and Syria.
Daniel 11:7-14. "But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:  And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.  So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land. But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress.  And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand. And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it. For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.  And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall."

   As Greece declined, two powers within it, grew dominant, Egypt under Ptolemy and Seleucus to the north.
Daniel 11:5. "And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion."  [Ptolemy]

Daniel 11:6. "And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.

    Does this not bring to mind W. Europe Royals? So inter-married that wars were but nations sized Family Feuds?

Daniel 11:7-8. "But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:  And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north."

    After many wars, these tow powers met in Raphia on 217 B.C. Ptolemy 4th was victorious, he did not follow through, 16 years later Antiochus 3rd avenged himself defeating Egypt as we read in.....>

Daniel 11:11-13. "And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand. And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it. For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches"
Daniel 11:14. "And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall"

Note: "....robbers of thy people..." Remember all this has been a one-way dialogue from the Angel to Daniel, right? So who but the Jews "THY people, is this about" Did or did not Pagan Rome steal the Jews blind? Look at the next verse.
Daniel 11:15. "So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand."

   Please Google or Wikipedia MASADA, and find pictures showing the ramp Rome built to take this tower fortress. ."...and cast up a mount..."

Daniel 11:16. "But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed."

   All those with some Bible knowledge should think and read these verses.....>
Matthew 24:15. "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)"  
Matthew 24:20. "But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:"

NOTE: Please read the above verses,  with this mind: Christ's  prophecy about Rome's destruction of the Temple,was given A.D.31 about a fact that was yet not to occur until 70 A.D. 39 years in the future and HE fully expected the Sabbath to remain as it was since Adam right? Yet most "Christians" worship the next day Sunday the first day of the week, right?  WHY? Daniel 7:25!        By the way there's no record of any followers of Jesus being killed or taken prisoner, because they remember this warning and fled, in time!

Daniel 11:17. "He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him."

  Remember the story of Cleopatra, daughter of Ptolemy? She was with Julius Caesar, yet she stood beside Mark Anthony , right?
Daniel 11:18, . "After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him. "Daniel 11:19-20. "Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found. Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

From verse 1-20, we have covered a time frame from 539 B.C. to the death of Julius Caesar on March 15th of 44 B.C. and past Emperor Augustus, finally to Titus whose army destroyed Jerusalem in 70 A.D. which can be seen in Matthew 24:15, earlier.

Daniel 11:21-22. "And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.  And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant."

Augustus' adopted son Tiberius took over in A.D.14, who was misunderstood, unloved and ruled at the time the Prince of the Covenant, Jesus Christ was killed.  In around 100 A.D, the persecutions began at full speed against all people who observed the Biblical Sabbath. As this was both the Jew and the Christian, both paid a huge price, due to the mad-man Epiphanes. This was in today's Asia-Minor, in the cities Paul has established Churches.


Daniel 11:23. "And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people."

Imperial  Rome, made her treaties with other nations to protect and promote mutual interests. Rome assumed to role of a friend and protector, only to work "deceitfully." By turning these  agreements, into her advantage, while absorbing their culture and religions and helping herself to their wealth. She did however build good roads for travel and kept them safe to travel, which the apostles took the most advantage of! So God used the very power to spread His loving Word, via the Roman,  power that had the means and the organization to kill this religion in its infancy!

Daniel 11:27-28. "And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.  Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land."

   The Holy Covenant is GOD's plan of Salvation for the the human race. Diocletian, A.D. 284- 306 by his degree which outlawed both Paganism and Persecutions, within the Roman Empire. However both re-emerged with more vigor, after Constantine  began his rule. He was a fervent sun-Worshiper, as today we still have coins he had minted showing his face and a Cross, on one side and the sun-god on the other.
    His empire under siege, saw a sing of the Cross and heard "Under this sign, conquer" . So he had all his men's shields to have a white cross painted on them, and then he marched them through a river and declared them all to be "Baptized"! This is why of this...>
Daniel 11:27. "And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.

Constantine, whose mounted on a rearing horse, statue is in prominent display, in the Vatican City, but he allowed the the Bishops and priests, to bring in the feasts and festivals and ceremonies of the Pagans with their Scarlet and Purple robes, to enter in the worship services in order to "Christianize" them. Sadly being many times the greater in number it was the Christian who got Paganized. Sunday worship, began by a 321 A.D. degree from Constantine: "Let all shops be open on Saturday and be closed on Sun- day the Venerable day of the Sun god, .For it shall be a a day for feasting".
Rome, to this day, embraces this dogma.In fact claims this is Her Mark!

Revelation 13:16. "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:"  Please think!

QUESTION: Can man/men make a common day Holy, and make a Holy day Common-- The Seventh Day Sabbath? What does this verse tell YOU...and me?;

Luke 6:5. "And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath.
NOTE: Is this verse. above, so complicated that it's difficult to understand it? How is this?

John 14:15. "If ye love me, keep my commandments."
Note does this not include the 4th Exodus 20 :8-11, or the 2nd? This way the 10th need not to be split into two parts!
Luke 23:52-56. " This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulcher that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid. And that day was the preparation, and the Sabbath drew on. And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulcher, and how his body was laid. And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment.Luke 24:1-3  Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulcher, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulcher. And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus."

This passage positively identifies Friday and Preparation day, Saturday as the Sabbath, and Sunday as the first day of week! SO please READERS whose word will you take, that of mere man, or that of the Creator God? Remember in the end there are but two choices follow GOD or men! Can a man save himself?

Constantine's Legacy:
1. His conversion is in doubt, He marched his army across a river, and pronounced them all Baptized.
2. he added Pagan HOLY DAY, COSTUMES, and  CEREMONIES into the Church.
3 His degree in A.D.321 "All shops shall be open on Saturday, but closed for Sun day the Venerable day of the Sun for feasting.

Luke 6:5. "And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath."
Is it possible that none in the Vatican have read, with understanding the above verse, as they still keep the laws from Constantine, to this day.

Constantine's efforts to revive the Roman Empire to it's FORMER 11:29. Daniel 11:29. "At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter."

Not bad for a man, Daniel, who lived 500 years before Christ' s Ministry began in A.D.27 now is it?
 You see Constantine, still wanted to expand his empire, but the barbarians were pushing his military back. So in 331.A.D. he moved his seat of power to Constantinople- Istanbul of today. He gave up his seat and accouterments of office to the then Bishop of Rome, that the why of this verse:
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."
The above speaks to the transfer of powers from Pagan Rome to the Church of Rome! Now know the why of the KINGS, plural...>

Daniel 11:27-29. "And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.  Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land. At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter."

   Does this not sound as both sides trying to get all they can get? It was the time the Barbarians where pushing against and winning much territory from Rome, in fact Rome was sacked three times

Daniel 11:30. "For the ships of Chittim [Crete] shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.

  Yes Rome grieved, she had lost much, but as Papal Rome she would gain much, much more!

Papal Rome- Daniel 11:31-35.

Daniel 11:31. "And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate."

a. "And arms shall stand on his part..." History shows that with the powers of EX-Communication, which at that time was a slow death by starvation in summer, and a quicker one by exposure in winter, as any who gave food, shelter or aid, would them selves, be ex-communicated, even Kings So if the Pope demanded an army to remove those who disagreed with him, he got it!

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."
  Please know that horns symbolize kingdoms. powers of men.  The Heruli destroyed {A.D. 493 {Italy)
  The Vandals Destroyed in [A.D. 534] (N. Africa and Crete) Ostrogoths destroyed in 538A.D} (Spain)
The ONLY thing that survived from these three powers, are the the words Vandals, and vandalize! Read Daniel 7: 8,20,24.

b. "..and they shall pollute the sanctuary..." by the introductions of pagan rituals and beliefs.

c. "...and shall take away the daily Sacrifice..." Hebrews 7:27. "Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself."
This IS Jesus Christ, whom the Vatican have reduced in importance behind Mary His Mother, of whom the Bible has no mention of her in any place other than her tomb, just as David.

d. "...and they.....shall place the abomination that maketh desolate."  This abomination is her true source of power and ideas, but he makes those willing desolate, for Satan is desolation.
 Yet they still have hope for...>

Revelation 18:4. "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."
WHY?
Nobody can sink so deep into sins, that God can't reach them and bring them to His side, IF, only if they are willing! HE is a gentleman, who will not ever use force, HIS righteousness will allow use only of, LOVE and TRUTH! Satan, on the other hand uses every thing but, including murder!  why can this be so?

Daniel 11:32. "And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits."

Who can't bring to mind those who rejected Papal doctrines and remain true to the Bible? The Waldenses, the Heugenauts, who on Friday the 13th, lost 60,000 men, women and children of all ages , in one day in one city, by the sword!. Who knows of John Huss, burned alive at the stake, or Wycliffe, who had a heart attack on the way to the stake, but 40 years latter his bones were dug up, cursed and burned and ashes of the cast in a river? {I guess that'll teach-um right?  Read Foxx's History and learn between 50 and 100 MILLION were murdered because they refuse to accept Rome' s belief system. The Papal motto,  "Believe as I say or die!"

Still today, it is the Pope who says what is heresy and what is not, and it is this system that believes they have the right and the might to kill all heretics! So please beware, all of you who are running back to Mother Rome, under her Ecumenical all earth's religions are of equal value ideas!

How long shall this system remain in power?  Until Christ returns in the Clouds!

Daniel 11:35. "And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed."

Note: Some even from within this power system shall be tried and made white [pure] .."...even until the time of the end...."

To purge means to remove, to empty, to dismiss old ideas, to remove offense, to make one pure, that IS available to all that are willing to change!
This is the first mention in this chapter of the time of the end, because this system shall remain because it is not yet at its appointed time. However this does NOT mean the end of time, as God is Eternal.

When did the Popes' persecution time end? In February 10th , 1798, with Napoleon's General Berteir, who with his army removed all the lands from her but 114 acres knows as the Vatican City. But after 1929 with a Treaty between Gaspari and Mussolini, she is again a Sovereign Nation, with some 88 Embassies, and via the Holy See a seat in the U,N.That marked the "End of Time" for this power. . . .for now! By the way the Holy See is the office also of and for the Inquisition!

The Rise of Atheism-- Daniel 11:36-39

Daniel 11:36. "And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done."

Daniel 7:24-25. "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."

Daniel 11:37. "Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all."

That's GOD' s Word now listen to this power system: "  A Man .... Pope Leo XIII , in an Encyclical letter on June 20, 1894. "We hold upon this earth the place of GOD Almighty."

As silly as that is,... look: Catholic National, July magazine 1895. "The Pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ Himself, hidden under veil of flesh. "

I for one thank them for their openness, in showing the rest of us the wolves in sheep clothing! Does not this next verse show and describe their Cathedrals? By the way no church in the "Universal" [the meaning if the word Catholic] system must have a buried relic or a part of a Saints body under its alter, or it can't be a Cathedral!

Daniel 11:38. "But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things."

Note: "..he honor with gold, silver and precious stones.." Do you know that as a system the Vatican is among the richest on earth? Every bit of Real Estate, owned by the Catholic Church, on earth is deeded to the Vatican itself? Still today!

Daniel 11:39. "Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain."

"strange" in the Hebrew is Nekar- (nay-kawr) # 5236. meaning,  heathendom, foreigner, alien, stranger (er). Who is always against GOD and those who accept HIM, but Satan?

Who has not heard of or read of the French Revolution' s "AGE of REASON?" France issued a law, outlawing all laws of men and God, on November 26th 1793 she abolished religions, holding "The Papal Power, who had been foremost in persecuting, by the sword and flame, by captivity and plunder..."  Look at....>

Daniel 11:33."And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days."
Those in  the know, know that this Document Age of Reason has been adopted verbatim, by the Vatican, as the Rights of man?  Which on close examinations brings back the Age of Feudalism,  to which all things belongs to the Lords and the Church!  Your New World Order!

Daniel 11:40. "And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over."

KING of the South here is spiritual apostasy and idolatry. This Napoleon wanted to bring back the Roman Empire with him at the helm, remember he crowned himself Emperor, and the reason he had the Pope arrested,  "Taking the King of the North" , who died three months latter, thus received it's "deadly wound"  [Revelation 13:3]  
    It was in 1797 that George Hegel, became known as the father of Atheism  turning men from God was also, Charles Darwin, 1837 his manuscript was finished. This gave us the Evolution of Species, further removing Men from God, and then Karl Marx 1843 introduced Communistic Atheism which in Russia took away the land from the people and placed it under the State.[Daniel 11:39 "...and divide the land for gain..":

   However Satan the deceiver was not and is not finished:   Dan. 11:37 "...the desire of women...."
!837 we received Sigmund Freud, a psychoanalyst, although many refer to this man as Sick-minded fraud, who gave us all the psychobabble, as the brain is still much of a mystery to humans, but Freud knew he could fix them?

Why all this anti-GOD activity? During the 1840's there were some 6 people, in 6 nations, who came up with a new truth via the Holy Spirit, all independent form others, and this allowed the puzzling prophecies to be unraveled and understood, in both Daniel and Revelation. Satan wants to to keep GOD' s truth hidden, and or misunderstood! Which is why most believe his lie on death in Genesis 3:4 still today die and go right to heaven, is not Biblical!

Daniel 11:40-45 Papal Power Re-established.

   This began in 1929, and is still building more power, just look at the admiration, with justification, with John Paul 2nd  and then connect these verses...>

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

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?"

NOTE: Do you see that this asks two questions : "Who is like the beast... and who is able to make war with him?"

Answers: None is like him but.....those who follow him. The last is the most crucially important!  Who is able to make war with him? Jesus Christ is is both able and shall so do!   AMEN?

Thank you for your time,

THAT, THAT WAS, SHALL BE AGAIN?

    CAN WE TAKE, the experiences of the Children of Israel, and apply them to our times?

     Well let's find out shall we?
      If we really study the O.T. closely we find these three words/thoughts, repeated more than a few times:
1: SMALL     as in the size of the nation in numbers.
2: GREAT      as when they obeyed GOD.
3.  COVENANT:  most likened to a Contract, binding two sides.
4. DECEIT: they will be deceived and become deceitful. 

Genesis 19:11."And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door."

SMALL ;  MEH-AT'  [meh- awt'] Strong' s # 4592. a little... a few in number or size.

GREAT. ATSUWM- [aw-stoom] # 6099 as used in Ps. 105: 24

Psalms 105:24.And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies."

Stronger here is from the Hebrew word Atsuwm, [GOD made them stronger that their enemies, now who remembers, all the wars today's Israel went through, 1948 being the the first? They had faced the combined might of four nations at once yet they defeated the four Arab nations. HOW but with God's help?

COVENANT:  B@RIYTH- [bar-eeth'] # 1285- compact, league, as today' s contract.

Genesis 6:18. "But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee."

DECEIT: -  MIRMAH- [ meer-maw'} #1820 fraud, craft, deceit, guile, treachery. as used in..>
Job 15:35. "They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit."

   CAN WE APPLY, these facts to America' s past and today?

1. We began as a small nation, of just 13 colonies remember? We then fought a war, against the then most powerful military, the world has seen to that date, agree So we began as mehat, yet we became atsuwm, after W.W. 1 right?
   At our beginnings we as a collection of peoples, within the 13 colonies, we agreed to self-implement within GOD' s Covenant, yet beginning at the 1850 and with ever-increased speed, we as a nation were under the mirmah, of the secularists, and those who chose human knowledge, human sciences, over and above the Word of GOD.
     We, as a nation, have been deceived, and many have removed themselves from the Covenant of God

Psalms 105:12. "When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it."
   Again the few in this verse, is the word mehat.  Please know that Israel in 1948, has many times more Arabs, that Jews, who were outnumbered in their new nation many times over, yet they won, why?

Acts 7:14-19. "Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls. So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers, And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem. But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt, Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph. The same dealt subtly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live."

   Here, again, as Acts recounts the story of Jacob and Joseph, we find once more the the the same four words, small, great, deceit and covenant [Promise], as applied to Israel. But lets go to Daniel, a book that MUST be taken as the overlay for Revelation, as each supports the other, but without Daniel, revelation remains a mystery!

Daniel 11:21. "And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flattering."

Most people are looking for the ANTI-CHRIST, but in the Greek this word is NOT ANTI, but INSTEAD OF this instead of Christ!, who will pretend to be Christ! But know this, At HIS Return, we shall meet HIM in the clouds, in the air, as Satan will not be allowed this, and he will WALK UPON THIS EARTH, WHICH JESUS CHRIST SHALL not DO AT THIS TIME!

Daniel 11:23. "And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people."
    Here, again, are the words Deceit and small, MARMAH and MEHAT, most people are deceived by doctrines that find no fit in the Words of GOD, because of those who trump their 1,000 years of traditions over the the Holy Bible. These and their "TEACHERS/PRIESTS,  who have deceitfully taught their flocks, over all these years!

Daniel 11:24. "He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time."

    Those who know not history will......? Repeat its mistakes, right? Who remember what the Dark Ages were about? Or the Inquisitions? This was during the time in Western Europe, when governments and the church operated as one, and Rome said, worship as we say or die! What does this mean for us today?

Ecclesiastes 1:9."The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun."

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

Revelation 13:15-18. "And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."

  Please know, NOBODY has yet as of this day 7/30/2013 received the Mark of the Beast, M.O.B. and will not not AFTER the International SUNDAY WORSHIP LAW is made the international law! This is the New World Order, under Satan run by one man, his man in the Vatican Power System! [Read Daniel 7 along with church history!]

Daniel 11:25. "And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand: for they shall forecast devices against him."

   Please know this king is Egypt, in particular, and Islam as the whole, now think of terrorists  and their goal to turn earth into a Caliphate!

Daniel 11:26. "Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain.

    Who remembers the movie with Charleston Heston in The Ten Commandments? Where the Egyptian army was lost in the waters as they returned to normal, all they ALL were lost?

Daniel 11:30. "For the ships of Chittim [ Cypress] shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.

    Were not the Jews guilty of breaking the Covenant? Is this not why Assyrians took the Ten Northern Tribes called Israel captive, or 70 years latter the rest taken prisoner to Babylon? Is this not also the very fact of what this means.......>
Daniel 7:23-25. "Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. 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." {underlining is mine]

Please know this fact of history . . . IN A.D. 394 under Theodosius the Great , who had outlawed all Paganism in the Roman Empire, a fact foretold by Paul in....>

Acts 19:17-20." And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed."

ANOTHER history fact:: all the latter Roman Emperors had the title of PONTIFIX MAXIMUS , which is the very same title given to all the Roman Popes, since Emperor Constantine, who gave up his throne, Scepter and crown {the Triple crown] to the then Bishop of the Rome's church! But as their power increased,l they convinced the emperor, now running the eastern empire from Constantinople {Istanbul] , to allow the softening of the anti-pagan laws, with "We will Christianize the Pagans, but as they outnumbered them the the Christians got Paganism instead! Hence today the Vatican calls their Traditions as of a greater import than even the Bible!

Daniel 11:26. "Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain."
   Know that Pagan Rome lived of the plunder of those they subdued, "They that feed..." .


Daniel 11:27. "And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.":
 Yet in face of success, they shall not stand, for long.  The lies, Well Sunday in NOT the Sabbath, as yet there is no fiery hell, nor purgatory  nor limbo, nor Mary of whom is not one word written that she is not still in her tomb! Plus die and go to heaven right now, is not found in the Bible, and all of this is but of men!

Daniel 11:29. "At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter."
She has returned to ways of the King of the south, Look at the phallus symbol {obelisk] in St. Peter's square, and making the center of earth's  biggest Solar Wheel. 

In closing I must say, "Within this Catholic {Universal} Religion, and many souls who love their savior Christ Jesus, and they will hear and obey"

..Revelation 18:4 . "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues..... "

GOD' S TEST of LOYALTY.


GOD’S TEST OF LOYALTY. 


  Do I mean to say that God has a test of loyalty?  Well let me answer that with this statement, and you decide!
Any, and even a casual study of Revelation MUST. . .must come to this overall conclusion: HUMANITY WILL BE DIVIVED. . . . into two distinctly different groups.
Group 1. Will be those who due to love for Christ, and a working knowledge of His Word, will live life within the Ten Commandments thus obeying GOD! This group…. chose life!
Group 2. May or may not love Christ, but are willing to obey men only! This group chooses to die with their sins. As you can see, both involve us making a choice, right?   If we do not,have a choice, then please tell me why God had this written…>
Revelation 18:2”And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.”
Now comes a choice.
Revelation 18:4. “And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.”
Now, some may ask, about the why, the people should come out of Babylon, right? His answer.
Revelation 18:3. “For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.”
1; Her fornication, Greek Porneau Prn-yoo’ –o  can you guess what we call it today? Greeks knew it meant unlawful sex and the practice of idolatry.
 1 : now let’s look closer at idolatry, First GOD created the very material men have shaped into a god figure. The some bow down before that which GOD made, and worship it! I mean is that not spitting in a face, plus  a hard kick in the stomach for good measure?
2: Then induce or entice others to do the very same things? All in the name of a Christian Worship?  Give me break!

                                                                                                                       
Is this a controversial topic? In many circles today Christ is a controversy, no matter how He’s spoken of, in many circles.  But in your sharing Jesus with others, and they tell you Not interested, or worse, please know they Rejected Christ, not YOU!
As controversial as it may be, it is NOT complicated, nor will GOD spring this on people, as a surprise, for God has laid this out, in black and white, centuries ago, and even within the 1850’s onwards, there were many Holy Bibles, around. In fact, then as now. . .there were More Bibles, than there are Bible readers! Those of my   ahhh… vintage… may remember a T.V. ad that ended with “Let George do it!” . Today’s Christians must all have Pastors named George, for few know their Bibles well enough to quote more than one or two verses. They take the words of men for the Word of GOD. Most are therefore, . . . mislead!
If any having Pastors, who use God’s Word for most of their sermon contents,, be sure to give him . . . .and GOD, in Christ’ s name. . . . . your thanks!
Daniel we know was taken to Babylon in 605 BC in his early teens, so from 13 to 19 years old was he taken captive.  He WAS TO WRITE THIS.
Daniel 12:4.; “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.”
We know from History, that God’s word was “Shut Up”  and kept locked, that’s why we call this time frame the dark ages up to 1798.  By the Power of Rome, it was not legal to have, possess even one verse of Scripture, or be called a heretic, and be put to death! Under Rome’s Policy  of believe as I say, or die!
From the Council Tolosanum  toe-low-sanum.. Pope Gregory 1X in 1229 A.D. Had this to say:
We forbid laymen possessing copies of the Old and the New Testament… We forbid them most severely to be above books in the popular vernacular {popular language],” The Lords of the districts shall carefully seek out the heretics in dwellings, hovels and forests, and even their underground retreat shall be entirely wiped out”.
Now the way this simple man reads this message as “If you or I have a Bible in our possession, why..,.. that makes us a heretic, which means a “NON-BELIEVER”, in the eyes of Rome!
By the way, she has not to this date, repudiated nor changed her laws one iota, thus all this even thought kept in the backgrounds, she claims this “We decide what is heresy, and we claim the right to kill all heretics,” and this my friends, is still on her books

                                                                                                                                                
After, 1798 date, The Holy Bibles began to be printed in vast numbers, and people gathered them up as forbidden fruit!. But as the human conditions improved, and the average health and wealth increased, people as in Old Israel, began the terminal drift away from God! Today, this very same drift is continuing at an ever increasing pace!
We, being believers, and, that puts us in the group 1 right? The ones who believe and follow the Word of God!
So what about those of Group 2 that obey man?
Revelation 13:5-9. “And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.  And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 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.”
So all who listen and are deceived by this power shall not have their names written in the Books of Life, by the Lamb slain. So what is the opposite of the Book of Life?
Revelation 20:12. “And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.”
Can you begin to see, just how seriously God views our loyalty? Can you not help but see, that God thinks of this as serious as life or death? Then I must ask each of you, is this question of your loyalty not a serious to you as the matter of life or death? If not, then I ask you WHY NOT?
What is it you know not, about terms life or death, both being eternal, that one may have trouble to understand?
Yes, some have said, to others, on this subject, “But . . .you just don’t understand, the vast majority of people reject your so-called “truth”! The majority just can’t be wrong!  Sorry they are, because many truths are not popular, because they go against the carnal mind of men.
Was Noah and his family a total of eight people, the majority at His time, NO the majority were on the wet side of the Ark and died, right?
                                                                                                                       
                                                `                                                                     
Hebrews 4:12. “ For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, …”
So how sharp must it be?
 “….piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the hearts. ‘                                                                                            
   Can you agree, that the Word of GOD, can cut through the outer coverings, get to the heart of the matter, to thought and intent, to expose the fake from the original, to determine who is Playing Church and who really lives  for, Him and thus yearns to obey all of God’ s Laws, and not just those men say we should? In truth most have trouble with only the 2nd and the 4th do they not?
SOMETIMES GOD’S  BIBLE TRUTH WILL:
1.  Surprise, and even anger the Catholic.
2. Sometimes it surprises the Protestants
3. Sometimes surprises and even angers the Jew
4 Many times does both to the Atheist.
However, weather it surprises, or angers, or does both, the questions remains, “What will your attitude be when finally God brings us to the greatest of depths, His truth from HIS WORD via the workings of the Holy Spirit”?
John 7:17-18. “If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.”
Most have heard this: You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink it, right?  Ok, ok put salt in the oats, but what kind of salt,…. if you will,…. does GOD use? I mean being a Christian, in this day and age, is getting hard, but its never been easy, at least they are not dipping us alive in tar, and using us for candles today, as at one time they did! The Lucky one’s?? they got tossed to hungry lions? Is that really lucky?? Yet it is easier just to go with the flow of the majority, but that means missing out a great deal!


                                                                                                                                   
Isaiah 35:10.”And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” . . . . .Who would not want that?
Isaiah 51:11 . “Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.”
God said the essentially the same thing twice, not for His benefit but for ours!
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.”
Now I’d say that’s a good reason, beyond the Love we have for Christ, to have us all become obedient, to God’ s Law …. AMEN?  Yet there’s more…
Revelation 21:27. “And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.”
Can you close your eyes, right now and try to picture life, with nothing defiled, no abominations, nor any lies, no not even a little white one, as no matter the size or the color, a lie is lie! AMEN?
Revelation 21:4. “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.”
If life with all that plus Jesus and the Father, for company, being able to speak to all the great men and women of the Bible, and all those who fought for it, is not enough for you, then how about having no more Lawyers, nor psychobabble MD’s, nor cops, jails and prisons, more money! You know the stuff, of all evils, money and the ways and means to get it?
So may I say personally, that I am glad to have found a Church where it is expected, that each bring their personal Bible? AHEM?
Please allow me to pose a question: “If YOU knew what is right in God’s eyes, would YOU. . .do it? However the ONLY sure way to know that which is right in God’ s sight, is to study His Word,
Isaiah 28:9-10. “Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.  For precept must
                                                                                                                                  
be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:”
That brings us back to
Revelation 13:1-3. “And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.  And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as
the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 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.”
Please Know, that John was shown this from His day back to the time of Daniel, thus the animal symbols were in reverse order, from the order which Daniel was shown, towards the future.
Revelation 13:13-14. “And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.”
Several things we should be aware of, within Revelation, 1: It is NOT in a chronological order.
2. The he, in small letters denotes, in Rev 13:13-14 none other than Satan, as the one who “….doeth great wonders in the sight of men”. Surely neither the Father nor Christ Jesus, is going to bother to make stone and wood idols, appear to cry real blood or olive oil, or have “Apparitions” of Mary appear sometimes for many days, in many places, especially when the Bible has not one word about her death, nor her resurrection, and all we have for that is the words of men and their traditions!
Jude 1:4. “ For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.”
The power that fought and lost, to keep the Word of God, under lock and key for centuries, created an organization, that sought to kill the Holy Bibles printed in to common tongues of the common people, but God’s is always the winning side, Amen!

                                                                                                                                   
But does this mean that the forces in opposition to God and Christ, are fallen asleep? NO Just read Jude 4 again, and you can update this to today’s date and every date until the Second Advent, can I have an Amen?
Under The Title: GOD’ S TEST OF LOYALTY, does that not include our worship? Worship regarding not only the HOW, but most assuredly also the WHOM, as well as the WHEN, AMEN?
Would it come as surprise, to learn that all of this can be found, within one single source, His 66 Love Letters to you and me, His children, the Holy Bible!
Genesis 2: 1-3 tells us of the WHEN… as Does Exodus 20:8-11 and other locations. The How,
Acts 1:14. “These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.”
BY THE WAY, this is the last mention for Mary the Mother of Jesus, in the Word.
Acts 4:24. “And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:”
That tells of the WHOM, and in part the HOW, but there’s still a missing part is there not?
John 14:6. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
Remove Jesus, from God’s Word, you have a pencil without any lead,  or a book with many pages, all blank, so life without Jesus I ask “What’s the point”?
Now if any think, that we have covered all the bases, of worship, you’d be wrong!
Matthew 2:2. “Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.”
“Are come to worship Him.”  They came from a long way, just to worship, who but Jesus?
Ephesians 2:10. “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus, unto good works, which God hath before, ordained that we should walk in them.”
So we humans are the workmanship and created in Christ Jesus, should we then not pray, sing or worship in His name, and live, life focused on Jesus?

                                                                                                                       
Ephesians 3:9. “And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:”
What does Jesus say to us?
John 14:15. “If ye love me, keep my commandments.”
Please friends can you repeat this with me? IF YOU LOVE ME, KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS.”
Now, who has heard, and said, with me, keep only those we want too? Or did anyone hear, It’s OK to pick or chose, after all they are only my suggestions?  If any did, Forgive me but, your  hearing, needs a check-up!
1 Timothy 4:1. “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;”
Can we really say that the reason we have most Christians, worshiping on the venerable day of the SUN, and be found in that 1 Timothy 4:1 verse?
Of course, because if any human is not doing God’s will, then Pray tell,  whose will is left but Satan’ ?
Who wants to follow this  loser, into the Lake of Fire, when God creates it, in Revelation20:9? 

ONE of my prayers: LORD, if I am chosen to stand in that terrible, strengthen and guide me to bring Honor unto THY name, and teach others to do the same. In Jesus name and for His sake, AMEN!
