The Lie ~ Bible Prophecy Today
Self explanatory treatise on the lie.
While this one is specific on the lie perpetrated at the end of the age, my take is much broader. I consider the lie as anything that asserts itself above God, His risen Son and His indwelling Spirit.
This is the essence of all sin.

Expelled Movie – The Ruse
From the mouth of a “smart” “scientist,” he’s basically saying man comes from rocks!
And because of the seeming necessary need for a designer, a conclusion of the field of science known as intelligent design, there are scientists who now push for the idea of panspermia. Panspermia is a belief, yes belief, that life came from spores in space… or some other race made us.
It is my firm conviction, that atheism is a rejection of God and morality, and therefore an act of the will.
Paul described this very well in Romans 1:18-23:
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
This is the rallying cry for the powers of darkness… “Where is your God?” Notice the voice in the “song?” Scary, huh?
Paul ended with a warning, sorta, Romans 1:28-33:
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know God’s decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
Oh, the scoffers have arrived as in 2 Peter 3:3. And people are asking the question in 2 Peter 3:4. But Peter explains it further in 2 Peter 3:5-8, thus:
For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
He is not slow, but very patient!

Theologian: Most Christians Infected with Prosperity Gospel
Whilst we must all be Bereans and be very careful that what we are taught is what is written in scripture… this article is very poignant.
This false prosperity gospel borders on heretical… In this country we have comfort, and people are urged to expect that from God as some sort of birthright. Does this not eventually produce the signs Paul warned us about in 2 Timothy 3:1-5?
This danger is so prevalent in our society and our churches… where there is a prevalence of this shallow Christianity. It is a symptom of a baby Christianity sustained on a diet of milk. These people never grow, and eventually demand teachers who dilute the milk of the gospel. They look for teachers that tickle their ears, telling them what they want to hear. Not necessarily providing truth, but a sort of feel good thing with a tiny bit of truth.
What then shall we do?
It means digging out our Bible and feeding for ourselves. We all must learn the deeper truths of what God is telling us on our own… For we cannot learn that from the pulpit of even the most gifted speaker!
Thankfully, God provides the true prosperity gospel in 2 Peter 1:5-11. It starts with yielding to the Spirit within, and with His help reading the Bible for ourselves! We must seek the true prosperity offered there, and add to our faith. We must grow!
And we shall find God is faithful… faithful in all that He says. He will give to us true joy. A joy that transcends all.
But, there is only one catch… Since it is freely given to us, we must therefore, give it away. If we do not it stagnates!

Pet care after rapture?
I just saw an interesting ad on facebook. A group will care for your pets after you leave in the rapture for only $15 a month (goes up to $25 a month March 1st) for up to 3 pets.
After the Rapture Pet Care has this to say:
Dear Fellow Christian:
As the Apostle Paul describes in Thessalonians as quoted above, at some point in the future Jesus will come in the air, catch up the Church from the earth, and then return to heaven with the Church. This is known as the Rapture and it will be glorious. But what of our pets? Who will take care of our pets when we’re gone?T
their FAQs answer questions like this:
- What if the Rapture does not occur while my pet is alive?
- Who are these Volunteer Caretakers and how do I know they’ll take good care of my pets?
- Can I contact the Volunteer Caretakers in my area?
- Isn’t the world going to be totally collapsed after the Rapture?
I believe in free enterprise and applaud these people for creating a service to fill a need. I have actually thought about how to get my pet taken care of in the event I get snatched, or more likely, have a heart attack with the doors all locked.
I for one will not sign up for this service. My dog is fifteen years old and might not last much longer. My apartment complex knows I have a pet and will probably go in and get him if a friend requests it. I have several friends that are very unlikely to ask Jesus to forgive their sins and become their Lord. That makes me sad, but it does give me some comfort knowing my Buzzy will be taken care of by loving people.
If you saw Doc Hollywood and remember the character Woody Harrelson played, you might have some misgivings about this service that seems like the “earthquake insurance” he was “keen to take a crack at.”
Caveat Emptor, as always

Good: Nuclear Doomsday Clock Turned Back; Bad: Board Didn’t Factor In Iran
For those who do not know, the doomsday clock lets us know how close we are to the end of the world. It started as a measure of how close the world was to nuclear annihilation, but has since been changed to include all forms of worldwide cataclysmic disaster capable of destroying all life on Earth.
Read the article, pay attention to the list of scientists who are responsible for setting the hands on this clock. Most are atheists, some well known.
While the article takes The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists to task for excluding a nuclear Iran, it is the other exclusion that comes to my mind.
As we march toward the rapture and tribulation, the bible gives us certain signs… among them are:
- People going to and fro and knowledge shall be increased (Daniel 12:4) – we live in unprecedented times of travel and spend so much time traveling, and knowledge increases daily
- We have become lovers of self and money (2 Timothy 3:1-4) – Spa treatments, plastic surgery, every advertisement you see wants you to spend your money on you! People are arrogant and unforgiving and there is a grand lack of self-control
- Increasing deception (2 Thessalonians 2:7-12) – We are deceived constantly and daily, be the press corps, by our politicians and by our own selves.
We are witnessing the signs, those of us who have read the book and understand know. The enemy, the lawless one spoken of in 2 Thessalonians 2:8 is already at work. He knows his time is short.
In my opinion, this is just more of the deception, more of the lie. A false peace and safety… look around, people say peace and those (anti-Christ) peace signs are everywhere. Could this be what is spoken of in Thessalonians 5:1-4?
Pay attention, we are being groomed to follow a worldwide leader. That isn’t so bad, but people will want to worship this leader… and he will want and accept their worship!

Rep. Wasserman Schultz on MSNBC regarding Haiti’s earthquake
Listen to the video clip. This is posted on Ms. Wasserman-Schultz’s YouTube.com channel.
First, I understand the nervousness, but pay close attention… the first issue I have is the comment about a “7.3 hurricane?” I know she stuttered and misspoke, but these are contemporaneous remarks and they really don’t sound coherent! That would be easy to overlook.
Listen further to Ms. Wasserman-Schultz. At around 3:20 in the clip, she talks about weather and stuff, but this curious quote pops up…
“The wrath seems to be reining down on them.”
I have to ask… what wrath? From where does this wrath come? From whom and why?
Ms. Wasserman-Schultz continues…
“It is absolutely imperative that the nations of the world come to Haiti’s assistance and make sure that we can deal with the scourge that exists there. It is wrong, especially in a region as prosperous as this one, for us to continue to allow the desperate situation that exists in Haiti to continue”
More questions arise… If we do not allow poverty, how can we disallow it? Is not Haiti a sovereign nation?
I am sure the congresswoman does have some concern for the nation of Haiti, however, with this post I have a hard time finding it!
Little hope exists for those who have called out Pat Robertson to also do the same for Ms. Wasserman-Schultz! Her comments are on a par with his, especially “The wrath is coming down on them.”
Pat Robertson does not speak for all of Christendom! His comments on the earthquake in Haiti have been rightly castigated form all ends of the internet. Surely, thinking people know, Ms. Wasserman-Schultz’s comments are equally outrageous!

Coffee with Israel’s Deputy Foreign Mininster and the Goldstone Commision Report
I stand with Bibi. I know his intentions for Israel.
We continually move to a world in which the Jewish people will hold all the answers. But for the grace of God and the ministry of the Holy Spirit who now restrains, things would be different.
In a future time, someone will propose a treaty with Jerusalem promising peace, and will then renege. Perhaps, foreshadowed by the events described in Ezekiel 38 and 39.
Regardless, pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and do it right now!

Science and Religion… are they the same?
For those who are paying attention, have you noticed a pattern lately?
It seems that those cartoons I grew up on, where a certain villain wanted to take over the world, were prognostications. In this case, though, there isn’t any one particular “person” who is doing this.
However, there does seem to be a concerted effort, everywhere, to harness the political will of the world in one entity. And with that, control everything you and I do. I am continually astounded at how fast things are happening.
There are hints appearing daily, and all seem to be small pieces to a larger puzzle. Starting with the engineered recession in 2008, leading to TARP. Then came G-20 and global socialism, followed by single-payer health care, cap and trade, and now climategate. The latest revelation is from a scientist stepping forward declaring a concerted push of what really is a religion. This scientist, a hurricane expert, rips anthropogenic global warming saying, “There has been an unrelenting quarter century of one-sided indoctrination.”
You can also find a push for worldwide population control. Now other countries have joined China’s call for a one child policy! The ultimate goal is controlling every aspect of your life! Perhaps, the boogieman is real, and he is pulling the strings. Your life and your freedom is at stake!
Who is this boogieman? Well, funny thing, in Islam, part of the purification ritual is to rinse your nose out in the morning and before prayer, this is called Ablution. This is because Islam teaches that Satan dwells up in the nose overnight!
Yea, I do believe Satan is real… and I also believe he is the mastermind!
Consider this… Lazy, duped American voters choose ”progressive” politicians because of the promise of goodies from a “benevolent” government. It is fitting, that they choose their own SLAVEMASTERS and willingly indenture themselves! What is more shocking is that they have purchased their own shackles, by supporting progressive environmentalist and animal rights groups with their own hard earned treasure in the name of benevolence.
It is ironic, and perhaps, just. But amidst all of this I am saddened. Saddened, because in this, they have rejected their own freedom. Worse yet, they have willingly and blatantly rejected God’s provision of righteousness for themselves, Jesus! (John 3:16-21)
So I ask… Are you tired of the lies?
Have you reject eternal life all for more leisure and a season to sin?
Did you know… That work is also a gift from God? (Genesis 3:17)
Are you prepared for the certain future of a tyrannical one-world government?
Behold… He says He is coming quickly! (Revelation 3:20; Revelation 16:15; Revelation 22:7,12,20)
Repent, that is change your mind. Reject the lie (Genesis 3:4-5,) that you are your own god. Trust Jesus as your only salvation as you would trust a parachute as Paul says in Romans 3:21-26

Man tries to send flowers to Fort Hood shooter, calls him a "hero"
Flori-DUH is right!
He sent flowers to a cowardly murderer and called him a hero?
I went to this man’s website, and was not surprised to find a self-described educated man who fails at logic and critical thought. He claims to be “the reincarnated Apostle Peter” and “the coming son of man.”
Hmmm, considering the times we live in, Matthew 24:4-5 comes to mind. Further instruction by Jesus HIMSELF in Matthew 24 describes exactly how to expect in the end times. Reading further in this chapter, we come upon a final warning in Matthew 24:26. Matthew 24:27 describes exactly what to expect when Jesus returns to the Earth… everyone alive, everywhere will KNOW (I think at the same time) WHEN JESUS touches His foot on Earth again!
Two words comes to mind to describe this man’s interpretation… BLASPHEMY and HERESY.
Read the judgment in Matthew 24:28. Mr Ross’ “doctrine” is a rotting corpse on which vultures gather!
