I was reading in the Old Testament book of Jeremiah a couple days ago and once again read a passage that I have read many times; in fact have highlighted as well as partially underlined. This scripture makes a good foundation for a few thoughts that have been running through my mind. The passage is found in Jeremiah 6:16 and […]
JERUSALEM UPDATE, August 21, 2013
Much missionary work is going on in 2013, none more difficult than in the middle of the civil war going on in Syria. A ministry run by House Of Blessing, Jerusalem is in the thick of it and are paying a very heavy price to share the love of God to people who have no hope, nor have they ever heard of the God of love who paid the price for mankind’s freedom, eternally. This is the last installment of a 16 month saga by H.O.B. and its humble founder.
JERUSALEM UPDATE, August 4, 2013
Since the last “House Of Blessing” update was uploaded I have had two additional contacts with our Israeli pastor friend R*. I found his updates quite encouraging and again found more reason than ever to keep him and his volunteer missionaries not just in occasional prayer, but earnest prayer as the book of James calls for when it says that […]
JERUSALEM UPDATE, July 11, 2013
In the last few weeks, every weekly conversation I’ve had with House Of Blessing’s founder, R*, I’ve spoken to him in Syria. As most know who have read these updates, R* was badly injured weeks ago when he and two other men were attacked by ten men belonging to Hezbollah. While they proceeded to kill the three men slowly and […]
JERUSALEM UPDATE, July 2, 2013
In the last couple weeks I’ve heard from H.O.B. three times. One of the questions I’ve asked R* each time I’ve heard from him is how his health is. He always responds the same way, telling me that he is in God’s hands and so has no complaints. R* has faith that when the time is right, God will set […]
Seven Signs We’ve Arrived At The End Of The End Of The Age, part 3C
Continued from Part 3B Let me draw a mental picture and see what you think. Most of us realize that our world is headed for numerous crisis that all seem to be converging at the same time. As I write this, the economy of the entire world is hanging over a precipice. Most all the top economists say the bottom […]
Seven Signs We’ve Arrived At The End Of The Age, part 3B
Continued from part 3A One reason it is so important to understand what really happened in Genesis 6 is because it is an important key to understand much of the Old Testament. It explains why God commanded Joshua to go into Canaan and slaughter all of the inhabitants including men, women, children, and even the animals. One would think God […]
Seven Signs We’ve Arrived At The End Of The Age, part 3A
SIGN #7: The appearance upon earth of beings from the Principality of the Air, and their unlawful intercourse with the human race. The Bible has much in it that our educated culture finds difficult to accept. Skeptics abound. Old Testament stories of Jonah and the big fish, Noah and the ark, Sodom and Gomorrah’s supernatural destruction, Joshua and the wall […]
SEVEN SIGNS WE’VE ARRIVED AT THE END OF THE AGE, part 2 of 3
Continued from Sign #3, last post SIGN #4: The alliance between the nominal Church and the world There is a marriage that has been happening over time; in fact probably the most notable generation may have been during the days of Constantine in the fourth century. At the time Constantine came along and through his power as Emperor, intervened on […]
SEVEN SIGNS WE’VE ARRIVED AT THE END OF THE AGE, part 1 of 3
This is a two part series using seven signs pointing to the imminent return of Jesus Christ, included in a 19th century book written by G.H. Pember, who was a British theologian. Pember was not the typical theologian, nor a typical researcher. As a result, he did not have a problem crossing some theological thought that did not always make sense; nor align with many things found in Scripture. As a result, he endured a whole lot of flack, as does anyone that considers any of the things he had to say. I happen to be one of those because, from my own much own research, which hardly is in the same league, answers a whole lot of questions that has reached a number of intellectuals I’ve had the opportunity to spend time with. Because of the length of the original article, I have had mercy on the reader and split it into two parts, the seventh sign being the only one not totally completed yet. It will be out sometime this weekend (first few days of June, 2013). Don’t be surprised if some of it is controversial to common accepted thought…but that is quite often a sign of a truth or two that have been avoided because they were not all that “comfortable”! Enjoy, and don’t try to read it too fast. Much might be missed.
