Newness of Life

  (under construction) I just don't understand how more people, especially Christian leaders, aren't sitting up and observing the Trump/Musk team with a wary eye?  Over the last several years I went from being upset aboutTrump being our candidate, to loving Trump in 2016, to thinking that Trump will lead us to follow the Antichrist, to thinking Trump is the Antichrist, to feeling certain that Trump  or Elon Musk is absolutely the Antichrist... and does it really matter who is who? Which one is the AC and which one is the false prophet who makes the image to the beast and requires everyone to follow him?  I mean, they go together like a hand in the glove, and one cannot prevail without the other, so does it even matter? But why aren't more people hearing the alarm that has been sounding louder and louder in the spirit until its almost deafening?   How is it that these events, following on 2020, that first, long blast of the shofar in the spirit, are not sparking ...

The Last Trump: We are going into Trump's last term, and I believe that the connection to the "last trump" of 1 Corinthians 15:52 is not at all coincidental.  "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." The shofar blast is like an alarm clock that grows louder, and louder, and louder signaling the most significant event of all time fast approaching: the judgment of every soul on earth .  God, in His infinite mercy, is alerting everyone to the approaching danger. It signals one final, last call to hide in the shelter of the Rock, rejected by men, but precious to God, for by it, many a repentant sinner finds eternal protection under his shadow. God desires to show mercy. So, the "last trump" is also the final, and longest shofar blast sounded on the Fea...

  Sometimes, when we are praying, the Holy Spirit speaks to our hearts in a very clear manner. It may sound just like your own voice-deep, quiet, and knowing. Often, I don't realize that He spoke until much later when I reflect on it. It's like core of my very being has a voice, and in retrospect, it stands out like a beacon flashing in the foggy night sky, pointing the way home for ships at sea. It was like that when I was praying several months ago. I heard this: "There is going to be a legalistic backlash in response to the dark, evil that has gripped the nation. You must reject it!" I want to say that the last part came more as impressions than words, and it was in reference to all of the perversion and darkness that we have experienced in the United States. I wonder if this bringing religion back is what He was talking about?  Religious freedom is precious and good, but is that what Trump is meaning and intending, or could it be something else? The law never save...

Elon's top book recommendations say it ALL. It's almost like he read them as an instruction manual about his mission and purpose in life. The general theme is that some machine, computer, or alien ends up controlling all humanity. Hmmmmmmm......????? Interesting. But he is doing good things. So does the Antichrist. But he will help bring free speech. So does the Antichrist. But he is for religious freedom. So is the Antichrist. How do I know? He comes in peace promising help to a world that is frightened and looking for a savior. One thing that I have come to understand in my studies these last four years, regarding the last days before Christ's return, is that we have to overcome this man of lawlessness, and that it is darkest before the brightest dawn right before Christ returns. I never knew this before, but as I read the prophetic books and scriptures, it has become abundantly clear. Our confidence must be in Christ alone, else we will never prevail over the rising dark...

The Christian world, what I will call "Churchianity", has chosen to overlook things that are inconvenient to see. We all do it, when we want something badly, or believe something, we rationalize, overlook, and dismiss information to the contrary. We are doing it again, and I believe we will see very grave consequences. However, scripture tells us it will happen, mass deception in the church, that is, and my hope is that God will work it all for our good. He orders all things according to the counsel of His will. He is training us for eternity, so maybe it's one last divine lesson that we will never, ever forget. This will be a longer post as I will talk about Elon's dark sentences, Elon's fire from heaven, and Trump and Elon teaming up from Revelation 13, so buckle your seat belts! And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. Daniel 8:23 Elon a...

  If you have never looked on that love, I beseech you now to turn aside and see this great sight.  Do not let that brightness burn unnoticed while your eyes are fixed on the ground, like the gaze of men absorbed in gold digging, while a glorious sunshine is flushing the eastern sky. Look to the unspeakable, incomparable, immeasurable love of God, in giving up His Son to death for us all. Look and be saved. Look and live. ‘Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed on you,’ and, beholding, you will become the sons and daughters of the Lord God Almighty. Taken from McClaren's Bible Commentary on Biblehub: The old commentors had a way with words in expressing spiritual truth that ignite our thirst for the Divine. This morning, I paused from my study of the current political upset by DJT (and his accomplice, Elon Musk) that is a study in, as Elon spoke, "Dark, Gothic MAGA" to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord. How do we identify a counterfeit? By studying the real t...
