Ignorance

 

IGNORANCE IS BLISS, text on orange grungy stamp sign

Many people in Churchianity seem to think the goal of the Christian life is for Jesus to make us Healthy, Wealthy, and Happy. But if that is true, HE forgot to tell the Apostles, and millions of Christian martyrs.  
 
 
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and you shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. ~ Matthew 24:9
 
Most Christians do not believe this scripture. They have been taught they will be "raptured" to escape this evil.
 
Jesus said: "I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one." ~ John 17:15  
 
Another scripture that confirms no escape: For when they (false teachers) say,  “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. (no rapture) ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:3 
 
The doctrine of a rapture or "caught up" to escape tribulation is False. 

Truth: Verse 16 of 1 Thessalonians clearly states this event is the first resurrection of the dead in Christ and those still living (the barley harvest) when Christ returns, not an escape. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection... Revelation 20:5-6. The second resurrection is the "wheat harvest" when Jesus separates the wheat from the chaff.
 
Remember Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego? God did not "rapture" them out of the fire. He sent Jesus to protect them from the fire. What makes this generation of Christians think they deserve to escape tribulation when Jesus, the disciples, and millions of Christian martyrs were not "raptured"? ~ 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

Truth: Matthew 24:12-14 (KJV)
And because iniquity (lawlessness) shall abound, the love (of the truth) of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure (truth) unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
 
As it is written: For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. ~Matthew 24:24
 
There's a very simple test the elect can use to make sure they are not deceived. When anyone claims to be Christ, stick a pin in your arm if it hurts the person is false. For when Christ himself returns we shall all be changed instantly into our glorified spirit bodies (spirits do not experience pain).
 
Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed (not raptured)—  in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. ~1 Corinthians 15:51-53
 
"And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth.” ~ Revelation 5:10  What! On earth? Churchanity tells us we are going to heaven, live in a mansion, play harp music day and night, and throw chicken bones at the Devil.

The followers of Satan believe the world is overpopulated with Christians and the time has come, "that whosoever (or whatever) kills you will think they offer their gods a service."  Their gods are "science and technology." ~ John 16:2

The government elites are only interested in two things: Your Money and Your Compliance. The COVID-19 fiasco confirms that statement. The vast majority of Americans are easily manipulated into compliance. The small minority who are un-VAXXED are healthy and happy while the VAXXED are experiencing "sudden death syndrome" and chronic health issues for the rest of their life.

The evil one's methods include, but not limited to: wars, lethal injections, mind and mood altering pharmaceuticals, abortion, LGBTQ+ agenda, same sex marriage, gender equality and inclusion, climate change, harmful chemicals in the food chain, GMO foods, artificial foods, AI trans-human robots, open borders, gaslighting, TV and movies, pagans in the pulpit of most Churches, making the Bible hate-speech, and any other means their evil minds can conceive to achieve their desired goals. 
 
Come judgment day these perpetrators of evil will have a rude awakening. Money can buy a lot of things, but it can't buy immortality. Ignorance can be cured with a few simple facts. Stupidity is terminal.
 
None of these things happen by accident. Their agenda is carefully planned and executed... and they need your money and your compliance to accomplish their evil agenda. As it is written: "An enemy has done this." ~ Matthew 13-38-40

This is nothing new. There have always been evil people who believe they are smarter than God. They vilify anyone who believes in Yahweh God and the Savior Yahshua (aka Jesus the Christ) as superstitious and ignorant "conspiracy theorist." 

Jesus never promised His followers  a "mansion in heaven," He promised a Kingdom on earth. One reason people have a hard time believing the Gospel (Good News) is because it seems too good to be true. A man named Jesus/Yahshua claims to be the Son of God, comes down from heaven and is birthed of a virgin, grows up like any other human, takes all the sins of the world on Himself, dies on a cross, rises from the grave, promises to resurrect all people from the dead, and offers them eternal life in the Kingdom of God!? Yeah, right... that's too good to be true.

So, organized religion created a "reasonable" Jesus. He loves you, but will send you to an ever-burning hell if you mess up. He will not resurrect you, He will "rapture" you. You must belong to the "right" church or you will burn in hell forever. You must go through certain rituals, wear your collar backwards, pray, light candles, give 10% of your income to a Church, celebrate His birthday, and hunt Easter eggs to honor Him. Now that makes sense to the carnal mind. We can handle that "truth."
 
Basically, Churchianity teaches the same lie that Satan told Eve: "You will not surely die, you will go to heaven and be like God." All the "bad" people will spend eternity in an ever burning hell. These two doctrines meet will overwhelming approval by many Churchgoers. Jesus said: Broad is the way that leads to destruction.   

Every generation has heard their whole life that Jesus is coming soon. Few ministers preach the Gospel of the Kingdom. According to Churchanity, the "saved" go to heaven and the "unsaved" go to hell at death... so false teachers say there is no need for a resurrection of the dead or the return of Christ to set up His Kingdom on earth. ~ 1 Corinthians 15:16-19 and Revelation 20:6
 
Both the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 4:29-31) and the New Testament (Acts 14:22) tell us we must go through many tribulations to enter the Kingdom of God. Why is it so difficult to enter the Kingdom? The gospel that Churchanity omits is the birth process. Emphasis on process, ask any woman who has gone through the process of pregnancy and given natural birth, or cesarean birth.

Churchanity has long since stopped heeding the Watchman's warnings. Ignorance is bliss.

Two Vultures


The vulture and the little girl, 1993. Original title: Struggling Girl.

If photo does not appear, Click Here

THE SECOND VULTURE 

Kevin Carter, a South African photojournalist went to Sudan to cover the civil war going on there. In the 1990's there was this photo he took that was widely circulated of a vulture waiting for a starving little Sudanese girl to die and feast on her corpse. Kevin Carter won the Pulitzer Prize in 1994 for 'the photo that made the world weep'.

However, as Kevin Carter was savoring his feat and being celebrated on major news channels and networks worldwide for such an 'exceptional photographic skill', he lived just for a few months to enjoy his supposed achievement and fame, as he later got depressed and took his own life! He was 33 years old.

Kevin Carter's depression started, when during an interview (a phone-in program), someone called in and asked him what happened to the little girl. He simply replied, "I didn't wait to find out after this shot, as I had a flight to catch." Then the caller said, "I put it to you that there were two vultures on that day, one had a camera."

Thus, his constant thought of that statement later led to depression and he ultimately committed suicide. Kevin Carter, and that little girl, could have still been alive today and even much more famous, if he had just picked that little girl up and taken her to the United Nations Feeding Center, where she was attempting to reach or at least take her to somewhere safe.

Today, regrettably, this is what is happening all around the world. The world celebrates stupidity and inhumane acts, to the detriment of others. Kevin Carter should have taken the girl away from that place, which would cost him nothing, yet he didn't. Here is the inhuman posture, "he had time to take his shot, but he had no time to save the girl's life".

Thus, we must all understand that the purpose of life is to also touch lives. So are you too a Vulture? In whatever we do let humanity come first before what we stand to gain out of the situation. In all we do let's always think of others and how we can be of benefit to humanity, how we can lend a helping hand and wipe away tears. Hence, when we seek knowledge, wealth, fame, skills, or even positions, let's think of how we can use it to benefit the people and society at large.

Today, there is a lot of poverty in the world, so if Almighty God has blessed you, be a blessing to others, extend a helping hand to those in need. Remember, your giving is also a way of appreciating divine blessings, bounties, and favor of God Almighty upon you. Therefore, it is very important that we all should help the poor and needy, the orphans and widows amongst us, so that they can meet their needs. Please don't be a Kevin Carter, be human and think humanity.

We cannot eradicate 100% of poverty. Jesus said: "For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you wish you may do them good."  ~ Mark 14:7

When asked about helping people, Jesus answered: ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren (or little child), you did it to Me.’ ~ Matthew 25:40

Christian Churches do many good works, however, if each Church adopted a fundraiser dedicated to helping people financially, poverty and homelessness could be reduced to almost zero. Instead, Churches spend money on themselves and tell the poor, "that's what government welfare programs are for, go your way and be fed."
 
Come judgment day, Jesus will say: "Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink." ~ Matthew 25:41-42

After God's Own Heart

 

King David

The following is an excerpt from the book, The Shepherd King: The Life of David by the late Pat Robertson.

David was a brilliant commander of his nation's armies. He was a brilliant administrator of the affairs of his nation. He became enormously wealthy in his lifetime. He was a gifted poet and musician.

In all of history, there have been few men who have exhibited such prophetic insight and overwhelming devotion to their Creator. But perhaps the greatest accolade of all is the description given to David in the Bible where we are told that David "was a man after God's own heart." Knowing the story of David's infamous acts of adultery and murder, we ask. "How can this be?"

If God forgave David, He surely will forgive everyone who repents and cleans up their act.

A Psalm of David (Hebrew name added)

Psalm 103
 

Bless Yahweh, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless Yahweh, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

 

Yahweh executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed. He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel. Yahweh is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.


He will not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

 

For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him; As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.


As a father pities his children, So Yahweh pities those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.

 

As for man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone, And its place remembers it no more.


But the mercy of Yahweh is from everlasting to everlasting On those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children’s children, To such as keep His covenant, And to those who remember His commandments to do them.

 

Yahweh has established His throne in heaven, And His kingdom rules over all.

 

Bless Yahweh, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word. Bless Yahweh, all you His hosts, You ministers of His, who do His pleasure. Bless Yahweh, all His works, In all places of His dominion.

 

Bless Yahweh, O my soul!

Prayer

 


Now it came to pass, as Jesus was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray...”  So He said to them, In this manner, therefore, pray:
 

Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

 
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors.

 
And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.

 
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen

 

This model prayer tells us Who we should pray to, What we should pray for, and Why we should pray.

 

WHO

Jesus said pray to our Heavenly Father, ask for His Kingdom to come, His will to be done. 

What

Provide us with our daily food, forgive our debts as we forgive our debtors.

Why

Keep us from temptation, and deliver us from the evil one. Then end our prayer with yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen


If you are not saying this prayer the second your feet hit the floor every morning, you are missing a HUGE blessing.

 

What a wonderful way to start every day.

The Feast of Weeks/Pentecost

 


PPT - The Feast of The Lord PowerPoint Presentation, free download -  ID:1535948

The Old Testament Feast of Weeks was a rehearsal for the coming of the Holy Spirit in the New Testament called Pentecost. The Old Testament was a shadow of things to come. The New Testament is the fulfillment of things to come. Read Hebrews 10. The Feasts of the Lord were not done away, they are a pattern of God's plan of salvation for all mankind.


Pentecost comes 50 days (or 7 weeks) after the sabbath within the Days of Unleavened Bread and always observed on Sunday.
 

Coming of the Holy Spirit - Acts 2:1-4


When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided (like a cow's hoof) tongues (like a serpent's tongue, flickering), as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues (other human languages so the mixed crowd could understand what Peter was saying on the day of Pentecost, not gibberish that no one could comprehend), as the Spirit gave them utterance.

 

Sunday, May 24, 2026 is the Day set aside to remember and give thanks for the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit to guide us, we cannot understand the Bible. God reveals knowledge little by little.

 

As it is written in Isaiah 28:9-11

“Whom will he teach knowledge?
And whom will he make to understand the message?
Those just weaned from milk?
Those just drawn from the breasts?
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept,
Line upon line, line upon line,
Here a little, there a little.”


Organized religion has rejected all of the Feast of the Lord except Pentecost. What a shame that most Church goers are not taught the whole counsel of God. Get a better understanding of the Feast Days

Gospel of the Kingdom

 

Gospel of the Kingdom


Jesus did not establish any religious organization. He came to call people out of religious organizations and into the Kingdom of God. ~ Matthew 9:35
 
The word gospel means good news. Exactly what is this "good news"?  In a nutshell: You came from God, you belong to God, you are going to the Kingdom of God. You have no choice. God has predestined you to be reconciled to Him. ~ Ephesians 1:11 and 2 Corinthians 5:18 
 

For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it! ~  2 Corinthians 11:4


As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed. ~  Galatians 1:9

Why does Paul tell the Church at Corinth we are ambassadors for Christ?

Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. ~  2 Corinthians 5:20

An "ambassador for Christ" is a Christian who serves as an official representative of Jesus on Earth. The concept implies that believers are citizens of the Kingdom of God living in a "foreign land," tasked with sharing God's message of peace, grace, and reconciliation. Every Church that teaches the gospel of the Kingdom is an Embassy of the Kingdom.
 
Jesus never promised we would go to heaven. We do not go to "heaven or hell" when we die. We sleep in the grave (the true meaning of the word hell) awaiting our resurrection. The word heaven means sky or the atmosphere that surrounds the earth, not an abode for saved sinners.

 
The only choice we have is to be a profitable servant or an unprofitable servant. We will all meet our Maker as one or the other. God always gives us a choice. We can choose to believe the Truth of the Bible, or we can choose the lies of the Adversary.
 
Instead of witnessing what Jesus has done, and is doing, Churchanity turns Christians into salesmen. And what do Churches sale?... mostly false doctrines, traditions of men, fables, Church membership with religious rituals, and substitutes a gospel of salvation for the Gospel of the Kingdom which Jesus came preaching.
 
And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. ~ Matthew 24:14. 
 
Jesus never promised His followers a "mansion in heaven", He promised a Kingdom on earth. One reason people have a hard time believing the Gospel (Good News) is because it seems too good to be true. A man named Jesus/Yahshua claims to be the Son of God, comes down from heaven and is birthed of a virgin, grows up like any other human, takes all the sins of the world on Himself, dies on a cross, rises from the grave, promises to resurrect all people from the dead, and offers them eternal life in the Kingdom of God!? Yeah, right... that's too good to be true.

So, organized religion created a "reasonable" Jesus. He loves you, but will send you to an ever-burning hell if you mess up. He will not resurrect you, He will "rapture" you. You must belong to the "right" church or you will burn in hell forever. You must go through certain rituals, wear your collar backwards, pray, light candles, give 10% of your income to a Church, celebrate His birthday, and hunt Easter eggs to honor Him. Now that makes sense to the carnal mind. We can handle that "truth."

 
Basically, Churchianity teaches the same lie that Satan told Eve: "You will not surely die, you will go to heaven and be like God." All the "bad" people will spend eternity in an ever burning hell. These two doctrines meet will overwhelming approval by many Churchgoers. Jesus said: Broad is the way that leads to destruction.   
 
Organized religion delays the return of Jesus Christ to establish the Kingdom on earth by preaching a false gospel to the nations. As witnesses of Jesus Christ, Christians are under oath to tell the truth. Until the nations know the Truth they are not free to make an informed decision. ~ John 8:32
 
The idea of Jesus's return being delayed is explored in Matthew 24:45-51, where an evil servant says, "My lord delays his coming." This is not a literal delay, but rather a false conclusion drawn by a wicked servant who uses the perceived delay as an opportunity to continue sinful behavior.

The delay in Christ's return can be understood in the context of God's love, mercy, grace, and desire for all people to come to repentance. One key passage that addresses this topic is found in 2 Peter 3:9, which states, "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance."


Jews and Israelites are two different groups of people. Yahweh God is calling our attention to correctly identify His chosen people, especially to the Bride of Christ, the Remnant seed of the House of Israel, the Regenerated Sons and Daughters which were scattered from Judea and Galilee to the four corners of the earth to proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom to all nations.

And blessed are those who enter the Kingdom all for the glory of His holy name, For truly we will be abandoned, desolate, and empty, if we do not proclaim the name of the LORD (Yahweh), Yahshua (aka Jesus Christ) is the King of a New Israel. The Old Israel was physical and temporary, the New Israel is spiritual and eternal. ~ Psalm 96:2

False teachers believe the concept of the Jewish people being God's chosen people is rooted in the Old Testament and is supported by numerous passages. Deuteronomy 7:6 is a key verse they use stating, "For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession." Other passages, such as Deuteronomy 14:2 and Psalm 135:4, also emphasize this idea which false teacher wrongly assume refers to Jews. 

These verses highlight the unique relationship between God and the Israelites, not exclusively Jews. The tribe of Judah was not in existence when these promises were made. 
 
False Witnesses Preach False Gospels
 
Denominational Churchanity preaches doctrines such as: the doctrine of salvation, the doctrine of grace alone, the doctrine of faith alone, the doctrine of immortal soul, the doctrine of heaven and hell, the doctrine of Easter and Christmas, the doctrine of Lent, the doctrine of prosperity, the doctrine of healing, the doctrine of speaking in unknown tongues, the doctrine of belonging to the "right church", the doctrine of the sabbath, the doctrine of only using Hebrew names, and they orbit these doctrines having a form of godliness, but denying the power of the Gospel of the Kingdom ~ 2 Timothy 3:5 
 
No Church has a franchise on God or a monopoly on the truth. The Church that Jesus built is not an earthly organization, it's a Body of Believers seeking first the Kingdom of God. Jesus never promised we would go to heaven.
 
The Kingdom of God means God’s active rule and reign in your life, not a physical piece of land, or a country on a map. You do not find the kingdom of God in organized religion. They rarely talk about it. Instead, Churchianity leads people away from the Kingdom with their "going to heaven" doctrine. God is not confined to Temples or Church buildings. He chose the human heart as His dwelling place. As it is written: "Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?" ~ 1 Corinthians 3:16 

Just as our physical body has many parts all working together, so our spiritual body consists of many parts. 1 Corinthians 12:12 states, "For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ". This verse emphasizes that although the body has many different parts, they all work together to form one unified body. 1 Corinthians 12:21 in the Bible. It means that no part of a body (or, by extension, a community or organization) is superior to another, and each part is necessary and dependent on the others. The full verse reads, "The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” Churchianity competes for members, Christianity makes Disciples. 


I was raised in a Christian Church. I don't remember ever hearing a sermon about the Kingdom of God. What it is, and what the requirements are to enter the Kingdom. I was 45 years old before I heard a sermon on the Kingdom. It was another 20 years before I fully appreciated the love and mercy of my Heavenly Father.

Churchianity is always trying to convert people from one religion to another. Christian conversion is to God, not changing from a non-Christian religion or joining another Church. Churchianity has done horrible things in the name of God. 
 
I believe one of the reasons Churchianity does not focus on the Gospel of the Kingdom is because it would destroy all denominations, and organized religion would lose it's source of income. If Christians were seeking first the Kingdom of God there would be no reason to stay divided in various denominations over man-made doctrines. 

 
Will Christians be a Bible-believing people with liberty in Jesus Christ? Or will Christians remain deceived by organized religion that ignores the Kingdom of God?  Members of organized religion meet to hear a preacher talk about their denominational god. Disciples of Jesus Christ meet to hear God talk to them.

Earth Crust Displacement

 

Planet earth with continents and continents, 3d render, digital illustration - 197936058

In the book of Revelation, Jesus explains to John how the second earth age will be destroyed and usher in the third earth age called the Kingdom of Heaven. In chapter 8, verse 11 a star named Wormwood appears and makes water bitter and poison. ~ Revelation 8:7-13

Moses and the prophet Jeremiah mentioned wormwood as a metaphor for God's anger towards people who follow false teachers and worship other gods.

The name wormwood is derived from the ancient use of the plant (Artemesia absinthium) and its extracts as an intestinal anthelmintic. Wormwood was the main ingredient in absinthe, a largely banned, toxic liqueur, the chronic consumption of which was associated with absinthism. Absinthe attacks the central nervous system causing seizures, and often death.

The drink was banned in France in 1915, when the wormwood used to make liquor was thought to cause hallucinations and madness. As the historian P.E. Prestwich explained back in 1979, the actual reasons for the ban were more complex. Soldiers fighting in Algeria first brought absinthe to France.

Whether absinthe has hallucinogenic effects remains unclear. The psychological symptoms attributed to the liquor were later thought to be caused by thujone, a toxic chemical present in wormwood; that conjecture was disproved in the late 1990s. The production and sale of absinthe subsequently became legal in many countries, fueling a modern revival in absinthe consumption.

Jesus continues to reveal what will happen in Revelation 9. Amazingly, mankind still believes "science and technology" will save them. Revelation 9:20-21: But the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk. And they did not repent of their murders or their sorceries (pharmaceutical remedies) or their sexual immorality or their thefts.

Earth Crust Displacement 

It happened once and it will happen again just as described in the book of Revelation. ~ Rev. 6:14. When the earth's crust is unlocked the north and south poles will shift to the equator and cause massive tsunamis. Earth will be cleansed for the return of Jesus Christ, The King of All Nations ~ Revelation 11:15

In 2023, the shift of the Earth's crust has taken on a new character. The plates are moving more rapidly, causing more intense earthquakes and volcanic activity. In some areas, the ground is rising and falling at an alarming rate, while in others, entire islands are disappearing into the sea.
