* WATCHMAN WARNING: THE KEY TO LIFE

The key to life has always been Jesus Christ and your relationship to him. 

 Today we must not forget that but rather double down on our intense focus on him.  His advice to me so many years ago to keep my eyes on him is surely the great advice for all believers today.
 
I know all believers who love America, the constitution, the founding fathers and what they created here, and the amazing impact of America on the world these past 200 + years are greatly distressed today.  I hear from my sister that her friends are walking around in a stupor. Well, that is probably not unlike many today.  Why a stupor?  Because they just don’t know what to do.  It appears – and more than appears – that ungodly forces have captured the government of the country, the media, and leadership of the hi-tech giants and other business giants.  In such an environment, how are those who keep their eyes on Jesus, seek to follow the life the Lord intended for us, and admire the Constitution to keep going?
 
The answer is the first statement.  They keep their eyes on Jesus.
 
These are the last days of this age before the return of the Lord first to collect his believers and then at the end of the seven-year Tribulation to vanquish his enemies and set up Kingdom rule from Jerusalem.  How many times have I written of this?  Sometimes I am concerned that you all must tire of my writing, but then I am reminded again that the great majority of Americans and people of the world still do not know the Lord is returning very very soon.  Even worse, the great majority do not know him and thus are not going with him when he comes.
 
So I write over and over about various aspects of his return and our time.
 
If you get disturbed, and I know you are, just remember the great behaviors prophesied in the Bible by Jesus, Paul, and others for this time.  Deception.  Delusion.  Falling away from God.  Rise in lawlessness.  And so much more. 
 
That is a good description of the world we live in, isn’t it?
 
And sadly look at the great number of churches and pastors who do not preach on any of this.  They still seek to say things that will keep their congregations, or sound good to people’s ears.  The Bible warned of that too.  Even quite a number of well-known preachers are guilty of this.
 
Jesus described our churches today when he wrote seven letters to various churches in the first chapters of Revelation.  In particular, the church in Laodicea seems to be today’s popular church type – neither hot nor cold.  Jesus said he would spit them out.
 
May God forgive all of us for not doing more to get his word out to others, for not warning others more.
 
I do know that quite a few of you resend out ministry emails to others, to your own lists.  And some of you print them out and give them to others.  May God bless you greatly for doing this.  To the extent you can, speak to others about the Lord, about the gospel, about his return.  Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in all this and specifically to set up appropriate encounters with others so they will be open to hear.
 
Some people give others our WAKE UP AMERICA! book.  One woman called the office last week to order more.  Summarizing what she said, she made the point that recent events all have created an environment where others are confused, upset, and now hopefully open to hear the news of Jesus and his return.  She wasn’t talking about confused believers.  She was talking about other people in general!
 
I encourage you to follow her example in speaking to others that you suddenly realize the Lord has put in your path.  And get copies of our book to give to others.  Sometimes people who will barely listen to you talk will take a book to read at home by themselves.  WAKE UP AMERICA!  is a pretty good title for now you must admit.  God gave me that title 27 years ago.  And the subtitle makes the point of what is soon to happen very clear:  JESUS IS COMING SOON.
 
I agree with the person who called and spoke about people and their receptivity.  In fact I think her calling was a message from God for me.  And so for the next two months we will make this book available to all for the very low price of $10 a copy, taxes and shipping included, no matter how many you order, one or a hundred.  To get this price you must call the office to place your order or print out and mail in the attached order form.  Our website and Amazon will not have this lower price and will continue to list the book at the full higher price.  Please take advantage of this offer.  Neither you nor I want to have to answer why we didn’t do more in this time or anytime.
 
I repeat one more time:  These are the last days.  Prophecies have been fulfilled and are being fulfilled right in front of our eyes.  Large numbers of lost and seemingly ungodly people occupy key positions in the government and media and in business leadership.  Their decisions are hardly ones you and I would make. This is truly a dark time for America and the world.  But then, Jesus is Jesus.  God is God.  And things done in darkness will be made known in the light.  Jesus’ people are heading to a far different future than the mass of those you see around you.  Help others to join you in that future.

* SIGN OF THE TIMES: WHO IS JESUS COMING FOR?


Not so long ago right in the midst of a service the Lord stepped in to tell me to tell people who he is and that he is coming soon.  We continued always with the preaching, teaching, healing, and more, but the focus shifted to the Lord’s coming soon.  Over the years he shared more and more – directly and through other means.

Over and over he spoke of his CHURCH.  “Help me find my CHURCH” is one of his words to me.  And I have tried.  Jesus’ CHURCH is that group of people on earth who truly believe in him, who have him as their Lord.  It has nothing to do with what denomination or local church they belong to or where they are on earth.  The members of Jesus’ CHURCH are currently working on ships at sea, building houses in difficult areas, cleaning up the streets of cities after riots, working to feed those who have no food, raising families, crossing the desert on a camel, fishing the bayous of Louisiana, riding a horse herding cattle in Argentina, sitting in a pub in London.  You don’t know where they all are, do you?  One thing – they truly know and believe the Lord.  They do what he says.  They have that new spirit in them that comes with being born again.  They are guided by the Holy Spirit.  They operate in the authority and gifts the Lord has given them.

Soon – and by that I mean incredibly soon – Jesus will come to get them.  It has really been long enough hasn’t it?  Almost too long for the believers.  But God knows the moment.  And suddenly the Lord will be here.  A trumpet blast!  A shout!  Angels sent out to collect the CHURCH.

And in all the places I just mentioned above and countless more people will just disappear.  In neighborhoods people will realize one or two of their members haven’t been seen for a while.  In individual church buildings the same will happen.  In some of those churches nothing will change and no one may notice.  In others several may depart.

Remember the Lord’s words about the numbers. “…wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. (Mt 7:13-14)” It will not be a great percentage of the people, not a great number. Years ago I researched the meaning of the word translated “few” there.  I looked at the original Greek of the New Testament, at least as original as I could get.  And here is the conclusion: The word translated “few” means in fact “few.”  That’s it.  Few.

Remember what the Lord said shortly after that point: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.(Mt 7:21)” Jesus did not mince words.  He made it clear.

So the few will be gone, however many that is.  Soon.  Incredibly soon.  Remember my sharing the message I got not long ago – we only have hours.  Well, that is where we are.  Just don’t know how many of those hours we have.

* A WATCHMAN WARNING: A PERSON CANNOT REPENT FOR SOMEONE ELSE!


We are hearing too much confusing stuff lately from various sources on the idea of national repentance.  Some are seeking to follow after the nation of Malawi that has been big in national repentance.

Certainly there is nothing wrong in people praying for the country.  But there needs to be some truth spoken here.  People must have an understanding of Biblical truths.  They can’t just create their own worlds.  We live in a physical, secular world that has various characteristics, some terrible to be sure, but this is the world we live in.  And as partial spirit beings we must strive to understand the spiritual world we were created by and will live in again, while we live in part in that world and in part visibly in this physical realm.

Here are some truths that cannot be ignored:
  • A person cannot repent for another person. That very word repent means to change what a person is doing.  In the Christian sense it means to turn from the sinful life they have been living to a life of following the Lord.  A person who comes to Christ repents of their sinful life and asks Jesus to be the Lord of their life.  They change what they have been doing.
  • In the Bible no one repents for another person. But it is possible as shown there to intercede for another.  A great example is Moses and his intercession for the millions he was leading around the wilderness on the way eventually to the Promised Land.  When the people behaved terribly, if Moses had not stepped in, God would have eliminated them or punished them some other way.  But Moses interceded.  In essence, he asked for God’s mercy, for God to forgive the people for their transgression.  By his very actions, he kept the Israelites going for forty years.
  • So when we hear talk about repenting for our nation, we really can’t do that by ourselves. We can ask for God’s mercy.  We can also ask him to forgive our nation.  But the great majority of the people are not true believers in the Lord.   They are the ones approving of all the aspects of falling away from God today, such as endorsing and backing all the LGBTQ moves and actions and backing wholesale abortion and so on.  Those are the people who absolutely have to repent.  [When God sent Jonah to Ninevah, he was about to destroy the city.  But Jonah preached to the city and the leaders and the people repented.  It wasn’t Jonah who repented.  The people of the place repented.  The bad or lost people, to put it in modern terms.  And God let the city continue for a hundred years.]
  • Some believers love to quote the wonderful scripture from II Chronicles 7:14 where God says if the people will humble themselves and pray and seek his face and turn from their wicked ways, then he will hear from heaven, and he will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Well, if we are talking about repentance here as it appears to be, the massive numbers of nonbelievers in the land must humble themselves and pray.  All we believers can do is ask for God’s mercy on the land.  And we can ask him to draw the nonbelieving people to a saving knowledge of Jesus!  That would certainly lead them to repent.
The United States has fallen greatly from God.  II Thessalonians 2:3 makes the point that the Day of the Lord will not come until there is a falling away from God (apostasy) and until the man of lawlessness (the antichrist) is identified.  I just read in the last few days a piece by a Christian writer making the point the first half of this has already happened – the falling away from God half.  It is difficult to argue that is not true in the US today as well as much of the world.

My guidance to you based on all the Lord has shown me over the years is to do all you can and all you are led to by the Holy Spirit to get the truths of who Jesus is and that he is returning soon out to more and more.  Pray for God to lead all those you pray about to a saving knowledge of Jesus.  Talk about Jesus and the gospel to others as you can.  Give them material to help, like our book WAKE UP AMERICA.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       May 2020

* WATCHMAN WARNING: HERE WE ARE AND THE TIMES ARE NOT GOOD


So for years I have written of the imminent return and of the full gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Now we are here in the last of the last days before that return, and things are becoming increasingly difficult.

Most of us didn’t think about that, did we, that the times approaching his return would be so difficult.  But then they had too.  With all the unbelief, the increasing immorality, the fall away from God, what could we expect?  And so we have it.

Certainly all born again, spirit-filled believers should be using that great spiritual gift of discernment to see what is happening all around them.  Regardless of how anyone might think this mysterious covid-19 coronavirus began and spread, such believers must recognize that those evil forces we have spoken of so much that operate in the last days and the Tribulation period have jumped in on so many fronts to seize the day for their objectives.  Increasing government control of the people, diminishing religion, ending the basic freedoms even guaranteed in the Constitution, moving ever closer to that one-world government.  Anyone who has lived a few decades and has a grasp of history must still be shocked at the behavior of Americans who initially so readily acquiesced to the end of their rights and the loss of their freedoms.

Are you free to go get a haircut?

Are you free to go outside with your friends to play tennis?

Are you free to get a group together for a picnic in the park?

Are you free to take a beach vacation?

Are you free to stay in motels and hotels wherever you want to go?

Are you free to demonstrate publically against government positions?

All of this type of stuff is protected in the Constitution.  Most of it you have lost, at least in many areas of the country (and world too, although I speak here specifically of the USA).

Fear is at play in a big way and has been for months now.  Fear is not from God.  You know where fear comes from.  Leaders and media types who do not know the Lord operate in fear every day.  They hype death rates and case rates.  They ignore facts.

Those people I have written of and the Bible warned of, those deceivers, those evil persons, those who would work to put together a one-world government, they are moving full speed ahead right now.

Yes there are pockets where some governors resisted.  But especially not some of the big population areas.

Californians don’t have freedoms.  School may not open there this fall.  Yet California has had a very low coronavirus occurrence.  The state has been very successful in fending it off.  The mayor of Los Angeles doesn’t think the people can return to “normal” until there is a cure for this virus.  Of course, you know there has never been a cure for AIDS, or for the common cold, or for the flu.  They haven’t stopped us before.

Those in Michigan are living under terribly tight controls – even against the right to petition, to assemble and protest.

The mayor of Chicago wants those who work for her to declare allegiance to the one-world government.

Are you getting the idea?

This lockdown of the country and the world’s countries was never merited.  The model that forecast such a horrible death total for the US and the UK was highly flawed or just a complete fraud.  While the news media every day hype the death totals and the case counts, the fact remains that the death rate is extremely low, not high enough to ever have closed the economy and society down.  Less than two hundredths of one percent of the population!  When some doctors have spoken up on these truths, they have been shut down.  A video of two speaking out in California was removed from YOUTUBE by YOUTUBE.

Well, freedom of speech is a basic right but not on the Internet.  YOUTUBE, GOOGLE, FACEBOOK, TWITTER do not have to operate by those rules.

Years ago a man from the computer world warned me of the godless computer companies.  Now we see them all working to produce means of control, of following each person, of tracking persons.

I see some municipalities in America have acquired drones to track people and to monitor compliance to their unconstitutional regulations.

What drives the people behind all this, behind the international organizations and the country and state governments?  They for sure are not serious believers.  They are marching to a different drum.  They were either ready for such a world problem as this disease and immediately seized it...  or there was even more sinister coordination of all this than we can imagine.

I like to say the New York City area had a pandemic; the rest of America did not.  Most of the hospitals in the rest of the country were never stretched, never overburdened.  As for the world, you could say the USA, France, the UK, Spain, Italy, and now possibly Brazil had a pandemic; the rest of the world did not.  Have you looked at the incredibly small case and deaths rate numbers for the majority of the world?   Yet even there the people are sheltered in place, even in third-world countries where they have no social network to fall back on for food supply.

This all is a work of the devil.  I hope you can recognize that.  He operates where people are confused, where they don’t know the truth.  He operates in fear and in lies.  In John 8:44 Jesus made the point the devil was a murderer from the beginning and that he is the father of lies.  Evil is at work in a big way throughout the world.  We should expect that.  These are the last days.

Certainly this is a good time to get the full gospel message out to others and to teach about the return of the Lord.  Historically people turn to God in times of suffering and distress.    Certainly this is a time we would expect conditions to help in the Father’s leading people to Jesus.

The Bible had some basic scriptures about this time, scriptures of warning and description.  I share a few here:

2 Timothy 3:13
…evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

Luke 21:8:
“…Watch out that you are not deceived…” 

2 Timothy 3:1
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.

Daniel 12:10
…the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.

Well, you all know the Biblical prophesies fulfilled, the signs of the times that I discussed in our book WAKE UP AMERICA and in many past writings.  It’s just the details of how it all comes about that is not covered in the Bible.  All the things had to happen somehow.  So we are seeing that and will no doubt see much more.

Hold fast to your faith.  Keep your eyes on Jesus.  As you are led by the Spirit, do whatever you can to share your faith with others and help the Father lead them to Jesus.  And for your own peace and rest in this time, remember Paul’s advice in Philippians 4:8 – “…whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things.”

In all this, do not forget the Lord said he is never going to lose us.

Live in the fullness of a righteous relationship with God all the days of your life.

SIGN OF THE TIMES: ASTONISHING! WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO US ALL AS A PEOPLE? (JUST GIVE US THE FACTS PLEASE!)


None can deny these are unpleasant and difficult times.  They are also the times shortly before the return of Jesus. In just a few short weeks a frightening but erroneous lethal forecast for a new virus coupled with decisions by the leaders and experts throughout the world to ignore established rights of the people has led to near disaster for America’s and the world’s economies.  Thankfully the model’s death forecasts for this coronavirus were terribly wrong.  And yes we still of course do need to be cautious about that disease and to use the wise preventive steps that have been advanced.

Something most of us seldom see or hear when this virus is discussed anywhere is real solid facts.  Mostly what we hear is hype.  Below are the facts of our current situation.
  • The USA leads the 200+ countries in the world by a lot in the number of deaths attributed to covid-19 coronavirus: more than 81,000 deaths.
  • In second place is the UK with more than 32,000, closely followed by Italy at more than 30,000, and France and Spain each with more than 26,000.
  • Then there is a great drop to the next country, with Brazil filling that spot at more than 11,000.
  • Surprisingly, none of the remaining 190 + countries on earth has even 10,000 deaths from this disease. Not Russia.  Not China if we believe China’s numbers.  Not the giant India or the huge Pakistan or Nigeria. 
  • In fact, the majority of the world’s countries have very few deaths, far less than they have deaths from other diseases like tuberculosis and malaria and so on. About sixty-five percent of the world’s countries each have less than one hundred deaths from coronavirus.  Many have far fewer than that, totals in the ten to twenty range.
  • Even in the USA the death total for coronavirus is way below the annual level for cancer (600,000), heart disease (650,000), respiratory, stroke, and so on. Using recent full year figures from the CDC, coronavirus would rank as the sixth or seventh greatest killer.
  • In the USA, almost half of the deaths are in New York and New Jersey, with a huge amount being right in New York City. Why is that?  Why haven’t we seen huge numbers of deaths in other great international cities like Tokyo, for example?
  • A great number of US states have little coronavirus. A few never closed down.
  • The overwhelming majority of deaths from coronavirus are in older people, people over seventy, and most of those have preexisting conditions (esp. obesity and diabetes). There are few deaths for younger adults and nearly zero for anyone under 18.
  • In the US a significant portion of the deaths have occurred in nursing homes where the elderly were sitting ducks and obviously those giving the care were not prepared. If we back out those figures, the US figures drop greatly.  Even including those figures, the percent death rate in the US from this disease is only two hundredths of one percent of the population.
With all that as background, there are very real and serious questions for you to contemplate:
  • Look how focused the impact of this disease has been. Is this God’s judgement on Western culture?
  • Is this somehow a targeted disease from China against the western powers – the USA and western Europe?
  • Why is so much of the rest of the world so little affected? Why don’t we see more in the media questioning all this?
  • And why has the rest of the world nevertheless caused such severe harm to itself by shutting down just like the USA and Europe?
  • Why everywhere have people under at least sixty not been allowed to continue working and traveling about as normal, just observing the basic prevention rules of handwashing, social distancing, and perhaps wearing a mask? That would have averted the great destruction of the economy throughout the world and who knows how many persons suffering and even dying from starvation, increased suicides, and such.
  • The USA government took the steps of encouraging the shelter at home policy, the lockdown, after medical experts presented forecasted deaths of over 2 million (from a model). The same model projected deaths of 500 million in the UK.   
  • Is this lockdown of the world’s economies the greatest mistake in the history of the world?
  • Why are certain governors and other political leaders continuing to oppress people with stringent controls when it is obvious they are not warranted?
  • Regardless of how the coronavirus came about, is the subsequent reaction of the various governments and the hyped actions of many in media and other fields an effort to break down the strong western economies and maybe even the world, putting the world’s nations in a much more subdued state easily organized into that one world government of the end times, the government run by the antichrist?
  • Will we ever see a return of the basic rights of Americans to the citizens? A full return?  Why did Americans so readily give up their rights, rights like freedom of speech, freedom to assemble, freedom of religion, and so on? 
  • Is there much more going on today in the governments, the media, and more than just the fighting against a serious disease? (Come on – you know the answer to that one.  Of course.)

Why such a reaction to this disease?  One religious writer I just read cites the great lack of faith among so many people, the incessant chatter of the social media, and the endless focus on bad news by the media itself.  I would add to that the behavior of several politicians who seem to jump right into the mainstream of shutting things down and exerting ever more power.  All of this creates every more fear, and as believers know, fear is not from God.  It is demonic, a tool of the devil.

One great concern I have outside the disease itself is the way Americans readily gave up their rights in recent weeks.  When the various government bodies started coming out with all their edicts and orders, they just acquiesced and closed their businesses, went home to stay.  Governors and lower level government officials put into place more and more regulations that completely go against the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.  You may not know this, but governors do not have the legal right to tell citizens to stay home, to shut down businesses, not to gather together, not to petition if they want.  The government does not have the legal right to tell churches not to hold services.  Some of this may have been wise for a while – generally during flu season many people try not to be in crowds for example.  But you should know that there is no right given these leaders to take the steps they have taken.  What is worse, lower level staff such as a few deputies and police and lower level judges have actually arrested and even sentenced people to fines or jail for disobeying such regulations.  A woman letting her daughter play outside her house in one state was arrested.  A man pitching a ball with his daughter in an empty field was taken away in handcuffs.  Now we see some leaders asking people to snitch on others if they disobey the shelter in place rules.

I think all of us who may have never understood before now can see how easy it is for dictators to rise and seize power.  All it took here was some fear blown up way out of proportion by the media and false projections.

One well known judge suggested recently that some of these governors and other officials could be prosecuted for their actions.  Wonder if that will ever happen.

I am concerned about how quickly and if we will all get back the rights that our founding fathers and our military fought so hard to obtain and preserve.  What do you think George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Patrick Henry would all think of the recent weeks.  Or for that matter those who fought to save the world in WWII, like my father.

It goes without saying that this is a bizarre disease with bizarre symptoms.  I may write on that in another piece.  But right now the big concern is the bizarre way it has been handled by the world’s governments and the great fear people have shown in their personal responses.

There are more questions and more facts, but that is enough.  At this time in our lives, we all must remain singularly focused on Jesus.  Always seek to be guided by the Holy Spirit, using the great gifts of discernment and wisdom and more.

I suspect we have not seen the end of surprises to our way of life for this year.  Be alert as Jesus warned in Luke 21:36.  Watch that you are not deceived as he warned in Luke 21:8.  And realize we are dealing with a lot of godless people who occupy pretty senior positions in our country and world – government leaders and staff, media, businessmen, others.  No doubt there are some believers there too.  Just be alert.

The Lord never said these would be easy times.  We still have not seen the beginning of the Tribulation, for that starts when Israel signs a peace agreement they truly believe.  That hasn’t happened.  But we are surely well into fulfillment of the prophesies of things to happen before the Lord’s return.  See our book WAKE UP AMERICA! for all on that.  Pestilence is a prophetic sign Jesus gave in both Luke 21 and Matthew 24.  And the fourth horse of the apocalypse in Revelation 6 brings pestilence as well.

There is much to think about and much to pray about.

May God bless you all and keep you in the palm of his hands.

* URGENT WATCHMAN WARNING! - MOVING TO THE ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT


No, the Antichrist has not been revealed yet, nor the False Prophet.  And the Tribulation most assuredly has not begun.

That said, we are clearly in the very last days before the Lord’s return.  Whether those last days are literally just days or a very few years we surely don’t know.

But the events of our recent weeks have brought the world much closer to being ready for the one-world government of the end times.  Throughout the planet governments have taken steps to cajole, encourage, and really force people to stay largely isolated in their homes or at least really separated from others.

In the USA we are all following those shelter in place rules, with so-called essential services still operating with ever more detailed rules (such as grocery stores having one-way isles, cashiers separated by Plexiglas, numbers in store at any time very limited, and so on.).  People either are trying to make delivery orders for groceries, or pickup orders, or go at the least crowded times.
In many other countries though this is all much more difficult and problematic.  Consider the third world nations, such as much of Africa.  Or consider more modern nations with a lot of developing/third-world characteristics, such as India or Pakistan.  Large numbers of people, huge numbers of children, no real social network to provide food for large numbers, and no real way for people told to shelter in place to get food!

It is a Franz Kafka or Orwellian novel in practice.  In Kenya people must stay at home.  We understand that the man of the family may go out for two hours a day to get food.  But if he is one of the average people or lower income people, how does he get it?  He can’t go out to work in some basic labor way, or to trade things he might have, maybe to sell a few crops he might have.  How are the children to eat?  I see that there was just a riot in Nairobi over food in the slum areas there.  Take this thought to the world’s second largest nation which has a huge young people population, India.  And just consider all the others like the highly populous Pakistan.

It is one thing to tell Americans to shelter in place.   It is another to tell people in many of the world’s nations to do that.  It is almost a sentence to starvation for some.

And in all this there is the obvious question of why this is indeed happening in the first place.  In most of Africa and many other nations of the world, there up to now is little coronavirus.  It might be better to come up with some in-between policies for now rather than force the people into starvation mode.  We are all still learning what this mysterious disease is.

It should be apparent to any observer that human rights are being willingly given up by the people in America and throughout the world.  The economy of the world has largely been shut way down.  The planet has stopped all the hubbub.  I saw that the actual normal wobble or vibration of the earth has slowed by this lack of activity.

In the USA the population has willingly given up jobs and work, has given up rights to assembly, apparently by recent actions of some local police even the right to petition.  People are told not to travel, not to visit others.  They are told what they can buy in stores and what they cannot.  They are allowed to walk around their local neighborhoods, at least for now, but in many places parks have been closed and even beaches of all things!  In other words, places are shut down that allow people to get together.

If you were planning a way to have far greater control over people, what better way than to isolate them and separate them from one another.  While some of these restrictions may be necessary, I hope you are well aware that what we are witnessing is a trashing of the Bill of Rights and of individual freedoms that our ancestors fought so hard to preserve.

So we move steadily on.  I don’t know exactly what the next weeks and months will bring regarding this coronavirus disease, but I expect it will be highly unlikely to see societies – including the USA – return back to the full “normal” we had before.  No doubt handshakes and hugs are a thing of the past.

There are out now all sorts of proposals, including a frightening one to develop some type of identification program so anyone who has survived the virus or maybe tested clean would have a card that permits them to move more freely than those who do not have the card.  Sound familiar?  Remember the mark in Revelation, a mark a person must have to buy or sell?

And there is talk of having a vaccine that everyone has to take.  Really?  Yes, really.

Timewise, the Tribulation will not begin until there is an agreement of some type signed or confirmed with the Jews, with Israel.  That agreement must be of a type that Israel believes brings real peace, for they then turn to living in unwalled villages (e.g., they don’t feel threatened).  This signing or confirming as described in Daniel 9:27 has not yet taken place.  When it does the seven year Tribulation begins immediately.  The Antichrist sometime after that eventually moves into Jerusalem and at the midpoint of the Tribulation takes up residence in the Temple there.  And thus begins the Great Tribulation, the worst time of wrath being poured out on earth.  There are several scriptures that make the point that believers are not appointed to suffer wrath, so I certainly expect us to be gone with Jesus before this Great Tribulation.  In fact, I expect us to be gone anytime from now up to the start of this Great Tribulation.

By the way, the individual who is responsible for the signing of that agreement in Daniel 9:27 is the Antichrist.  So if you are here and are paying attention, you will know the Antichrist at that moment.

The Antichrist and his key assistant the False Prophet work steadily for more and more control on earth as they move to the one-world government.  It is pretty apparent we are seeing steps in that direction now, despite the good intentions of many.  While we all should recognize the health challenges people face today, we still must all do all we can to see that individual liberties are preserved and restored in the coming months.  Sadly we have now already seen just how easy it is for those to be quickly taken away.

* SIGN OF THE TIMES: REMEMBER


This is an extraordinary, unusual, and for most of us unprecedented time we are living in right now.  Keep your eyes on Jesus, the one who counts, and remember these great truths:

FEAR – Fear is not from God.  You know where that comes from, from the evil side of the spiritual realm, from that individual who has been a liar from the beginning.

PANIC – That is just an escalation of fear having its way.  Fear and panic in our society right now are evident not just in the general population but especially among some of these talking head leaders that are on television way too often and often just spread uncertainty and more confusion.  Some seem to almost relish giving out wildly out of line projections of how many will be sick when no evidence so far supports that.

HEALING AND HEALTH AND PROTECTION – All those scriptures in the Bible pertaining to divine healing and to God’s protection that I am always writing about and ministering in are just as true now as they always were.  And they apply to coronavirus just as they apply to anything else.

NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR GOD – Still true.  God made that point himself.

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD – A point made by Jesus and by Gabriel.

BELIEVERS CAN DO THE SAME THINGS JESUS DID – Jesus made that point.

SOME PERHAPS HELPFUL COMMENTS - I know it is troubling and confusing and perhaps angering to listen to all the politicians and all the media talk about this virus and plan all sorts of things.  We see even in this time of national concern the evidence still of individual political priorities coming in, people criticizing and hoping to make political points, and some media and some bureaucrats seemingly easily excitable and wanting to grandstand and project all sorts of things that are just not helpful.  All this is troubling and we must admit that in recent years these people have lost a lot of credibility with the public at large.  Still, we have to realize people are just people.  They are not God, although those who truly know the Lord can operate as he wishes and with the authority the Lord has given each believer.  Believers have the guidance of the Holy Spirit.  Many of those on television you see all the time today focusing on this issue may not know the Lord and they are operating in their humanness.  And people make mistakes.  We all do.

ONE ADDITIONAL PIECE OF ADVICE - We all need to be alert to the actions being taken by the government here and abroad.  Do these actions make sense?  Are they justified?  Only time will tell.  But as this plays out, we need to see that these temporary measures really are temporary and disappear as soon as the disease is basically over.  We don’t need all those big government types, the one-world types, to put in place more harmful controls at a time of real serious concern on the part of the populace when most people are not thinking beyond the disease and how to be safe.

LAST DAYS – And one last area of comment.  Yes, it is true that pestilence is one of the signs of these last days before the Lord returns.  Well, you already knew we were living at the time of his soon return, so no need to be surprised by that.  There are all sorts of strange happenings around the world now, as we have written about in newsletters and other publications for a long time.
In all things at all times keep your eyes on Jesus.  Use the great spiritual gift of discernment that comes with the Holy Spirit to discern the truth in all situations.  Be guided by the Spirit as you go forward.  And live in that great peace and joy that comes with knowing the Lord.  Remember, he overcame the world and in him we do too.  Remember, in him you cast out demons.   And remember above all, that if you are a believer, the Lord is never going to lose you.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. – John 14:27

* A WATCHMAN WARNING: THINKING ABOUT DEATH - HOW HUGE IS THE NUMBER OF LOST ON EARTH?


So huge.  So large.  So many people with little or no idea of life and eternity.

This life on earth is temporary.  It is short in physical time.  After that comes eternity.  How many people do you know who have ever spent any time thinking about that – eternity?  Forever.

There are only two eternities available for people.

One, an eternity with Jesus and the Father, and the other an eternity in a place of horror, a place separated from God, a place called hell, a place the Bible refers to in the last book as the Lake of Fire, a place where Satan himself and the Antichrist and the false prophet will also dwell for eternity.

We have all in the last couple days been inundated with news stories about the world famous great basketball player who was killed in a helicopter crash.  He was the sports idol of many in the US and the world.

I haven’t listened to most of the reports, just a few minutes, but I have never heard it said whether he was a believer in the Lord or not.  And that is the key of all life.

Is a person a true believer in the Lord?  Have they been born again, as Jesus said must happen to be in the Kingdom of God?  Have they accepted Jesus as the Lord of their life?

The Lord was very straightforward about all this.  He laid down the criteria.  I have written about all this before.  It all comes down to truly realizing who Jesus is and truly believing in him.  You must know the Lord and he must know you are his.

In all the news lately about the superstar there are all kinds of reports.  But what about his eternity, or that of the others on the helicopter?

Every day we hear accounts of death – some in our circle but mostly people we do not know, deaths from car accidents or violent and insane crime, or some disease.  Wonder how many know the Lord truly and have moved on to a wonderful future?

Death is in the end a very simple thing.  I have had many in my life die, young and old, as I expect you have if you have lived a few years.

Think of death this way.  Suppose we are in the room of a person who is dying, who is near their last moments of life.  Let’s say her name is Betty.  Suppose other people are in the room – Betty’s brother and children, a couple friends.  Somewhere in this room is a door that at the moment no one can see. But soon Betty will see that door, and she will go through it into another room, another place.  Betty’s brother and children and friends will all still be in the first room, but Betty will now be in the other room, the other place.  All in the first room cannot see Betty in the other room.  They can’t even see the door.  But she is indeed there.  And she is no longer in the first room.  All that remains there is the physical body that she once lived in, now just lifeless material that clearly is not Betty the person.

A real mystery isn’t it.  Really unusual for us here in this physical realm.  No wonder so few ever talk about death.  No wonder it is so ignored in our society.  We believers know and understand it is a way to be with the Lord forever, a way to Heaven.  It is the only way in fact other than going with Jesus when he returns to collect his believers.

Life is far more weird and unusual and bizarre than we can even imagine.  The world that made ours and us and in some way oversees us is the spiritual realm.  God himself made earth and people and animals and trees and so on.  Father God and Jesus and all those who have died knowing Jesus like Betty are in Heaven, a wonderful place located somewhere.  The Holy Spirit form of God is on earth right now, especially involved with those who are true believers in the Lord.   Those who have spent much time studying Heaven think possibly it is itself a planet in the north.  But then others think it may be in a parallel universe, whatever that is.

All the time we have been living our lives on this planet, there has been a raging war between God’s angels and the evil ones that follow the devil, Satan, Lucifer, the evil one, whatever you choose to call him.  This formerly top ranking angel of God has been thrown out of Heaven along with a third of the angels.  Now some of these fallen angels are in captivity.  How many?  Satan also has following him hordes of demons.  We just don’t know what they are.  Some think they are the fallen angels, but nowhere in the Bible is there any evidence angels seek or want to inhabit a human body, which is what demons do.   Maybe demons are disembodied life forms, in other words, spirits of individuals of some type that have long departed their bodies.  Are they from our human being race?  Or from some time before that?  We don’t know.

We believers are protected and I think in part kept alive by some of God’s angels that he has assigned to take care of us.  See Hebrews 1:14.  And our knowledge of all God has given us to protect ourselves also helps protect us as long as we know how to apply it.

But back to the title and the opening paragraph.  Just how few people really know God and know where they are going after death?  And how large is that group that does not know and – at least for many – doesn’t appear to give that subject any thought.

Maybe the death of this world famous athlete will at least get some people thinking about death and their future, leading to their being open to being drawn by God to Jesus.

My challenge to you and to myself as well is to speak of the Lord, the gospel message, and his imminent return to others every opportunity you have.  Ask the Holy Spirit to arrange such opportunities for you and to guide you in all that.  The only truly important thing for any person right now is that they truly know the Lord.  If they do they can move on to the next most important thing – telling others.

You can see easily from the television news and the sports programs and the entertainment world and all those around you that huge is the number of people that do not know the Lord truly and thus are not going with him when they die or when he returns unless something changes in their lives.  It is a big challenge – and responsibility - for you and me.

PLEASE NOTE:
It goes without saying that we are living in the last days before the return of the Lord.  It goes without saying that most people on earth, including a great many who attend churches on Sunday, don’t know at all about this.  They just aren’t aware.  They have never been taught.  They don’t spend any time themselves to study the Bible or seek out more information on the subject.  For your family and friends and really anyone you care about, please get copies of our book WAKE UP AMERICA! now!  Give copies to those you care for.  Help wake them up! Most people will accept a gift of a book, even if they are difficult for you to speak to about such important matters.

*A WATCHMAN WARNING: DECEPTION IN FULL BORE - ARE YOU FOLLOWING JESUS' ADVICE?


“Watch out that you are not deceived.” – Jesus in Luke 21:8

The secular world in the midst of which we are all living today is for believers an atrocious world.  That is true for nonbelievers too, although many do not realize that.

The rampant deception and delusion of so many is now obviously apparent.  Were it not for our faith and understanding of what is soon to come, we believers would be screaming like the person in the painting THE SCREAM that was on our last newsletter.  But we do know what is to come, we do know who we are in Christ, we do know the joy of having the Kingdom in us now and we will soon know the joy of having the Kingdom all around us.

Not so for the mass of humanity that populates the planet and produces the ghastly behaviors and gross deceptions we see every day.  There is not space to list them all but just look at some major examples of massive lunacy – and massive deception:

THE NBA (National Basketball Association) CHOOSES TO SUPPORT COMMUNIST CHINA OVER PERSONAL FREEDOM
The NBA official organization as well as many of its biggest stars has just shown the world that it is money and money only they are all about.  They have thrown America under the bus.  They have supported this communist dictatorship that commits and has committed overwhelming gross human rights violations for decades.  It is astounding what money – and spiritual and intellectual blindness and basic ignorance – can do.  Because one of the staff of one team had the audacity to support those in Hong Kong demonstrating for personal freedoms, the entire league came out in support of this murderous regime, ignoring what it is and has been.  Just consider:
  • It is China that had the one baby per couple policy for so long, eliminating that just in 2015.
  • It is China that is working on a program of following citizen’s activities and thus determining who it will allow to travel and who it will not (within the country!). I have heard there are two million on the “not travel” list so far.
  • It is China that oppresses religion – Christianity, in our case. The formal Chinese church, the one that is visible, is a sham.  People are not allowed to attend until they are 18 years old.  And even then it is a church operating with the approval of the godless state.  Underground, hidden and struggling, are the true Christians there.  Estimates are at least 100 million are in the underground church, taking personal risks to live and worship as true believers in the Lord.  There are missionaries who travel in China and coordinate these underground churches.
  • It is China that will not tolerate demonstrations on the part of its citizens seeking individual rights. Remember Tiananmen Square?  Remember watching the tank roll right over a demonstrator?
  • This is the China of horrible environmental pollution that the green movement seems to conveniently ignore.
  • This is the China of government censorship and theft of intellectual property.
  • This is the China of massive oppression of people.
  • This is the nation that so oppresses the people of Tibet today.
  • This is the nation that currently holds 3 million Muslims in detention camps – That is their way of dealing with today’s radical Islam problem. (June 4, 2019 – THE NATIONAL INTEREST)
  • This is the nation that according to the latest Human Rights Watch World Report
    • “dramatically stepped up repression and systematic abuses against the 13 million Turkic Muslims, including Uyghurs and ethnic Kazakhs, in China’s northwestern Xinjiang region”
    • “hastened their efforts in 2018 to undermine people’s rights to free speech and political participation in Hong King”
    • increasingly deploys mass surveillance systems to tighten control over society. “In 2018, the government continued to collect, on a mass scale, biometrics including DNA and voice samples; use such biometrics for automated surveillance purposes; develop a nationwide reward and punishment system known as the “social credit system”; and develop and apply “big data” policing programs aimed at preventing dissent.”
    • tried to silence Chinese human rights defenders abroad by harassing and detaining their families in China.
    • And much more. You can read the report.
  • This is the China that sends a 200 million person army to Armageddon at the end of the Tribulation period.
  • This is the China that the NBA and its stars are applauding and upholding.
Remember now that basketball was invented in America.  Basketball is an American sport.  The NBA has grown and prospered in America, the land of opportunity.  This professional league has made multi-millionaires of hundreds of athletes.  The NBA has now thrown its support to the horrible government described above.  Americans can and should react by dropping all support to the league.  Whether they will is not likely, for remember so many Americans are deceived themselves.

THIS “IMPEACHMENT” of the PRESIDENT
Regardless of your political preferences, you must recognize the terrible deception playing out in Washington and on the news channels:  Ever since the election of the current president in 2016, and even before, large numbers of people have somehow blindly ignored the election and have sought to overturn it.  This is unlike all previous elections in our lifetime.  One of the examples of American’s greatness has been the peaceful passing of authority over time. 

These opponents of the government proceed in all avenues and take extreme behaviors.  Lying, breaking rules, interfering as much as possible in normal government operations – important issues of the day are ignored so that this crusade might continue.  For two years we were all subjected to a sham story of Russia collusion that turned out to be nothing.  So now the group has moved on to pressing for impeachment.  All of this is an overwhelming example of both deception and delusion.  We who know the Lord and are able to discern truth recognize this for what it is, but millions do not. 
I do not know how this will all play out.  There is so much to say and so much to write.  We are so close to the Lord’s return.  So many leaders and even so many institutions long highly regarded have now been brought into this deception.  Maybe the disarray that is Washington and the national media is indeed America’s lot for the end time period.  Maybe not.  We can still hope and pray.  But I remind you that America is not anywhere to be seen in Scripture in these last days.

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS AND THE BEHAVIOR ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES
This has been going on for some time but it is too important not to include here.  It is a disaster for American culture, our system of government, and individual freedom and rights. Over and over again all types of accomplished persons from various fields of activity are brazenly stopped from speaking on these campuses by deceived, intellectually blind students and professors.  Freedom of speech is trashed.  The idea of listening to various points of view in order to come to a wise decision on an issue is not understood and totally ignored.  This behavior is the complete opposite of the concept of America that was forged through so much effort and sacrifice by the original founders so many years ago.

AND HERE WE ARE:
These are the last hours.  I do not know specifically when the Lord will return but I know it is soon.  Very soon.  Sometime between now and a few years.  Keep your eyes on Jesus.  Always.  And use all the tools God has given you  to protect yourself.  Put on his armor as described in Ephesians 6.  Thank God for his angels and for their protecting you (see Hebrews 1:14).  In his name cast out demons, evil spirits always, especially before and after you are around persons and places that surely have many nonbelievers present.  For example, going into and out of a hospital, shopping in a mall, anywhere you go in this secular world.

Please send copies of this article or forward the email to all you would.  How are people who do not know Jesus or do not know of his imminent return to come to the truth without someone telling them?  You can and should be part of that.

It is all as Jesus said about our day, that it would be just like the days of Noah and Lot.  What of those days?  Highly sinful, with people going about normal activities – marriage, business, and so on.  They were oblivious of what was about to happen.  So too with so many today.

Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you always in all encounters and all situations.  Represent the Lord as possible and as the Holy Spirit leads you in every situation.  To the extent possible, seek to help God the Father lead others to Christ.  And always pray for the lost.  Pray that God will draw them to Jesus.  Remember, you cannot make anyone believe.  But you surely can help in all this.
