Scripture Reading: I Kings 12:21-24

About a month ago there were reports that the United States military was relocating men and equipment from low lying ground on the eastern seaboard inland to higher ground.  It was foolishly speculated this was for fear Russia was about to set off undersea nuclear explosions to generate tsunamis.  But now it is obvious that the military obviously had advanced knowledge of Hurricane Sandy. 

A week ago there were images showing serious HAARP activity over the eastern states.  It is the fulfillment of an imaginary storm in 1997 that was exactly the same as the one in 2012!  The first storm was named “Sandy;” the same as the second.  What is interesting about this weather event is that if “Sandy” was not intentionally generated by HAARP why was HAARP not deployed to calm or steer the hurricane to sea preventing landfall? 

Secondly, a week and a half ago Donald Trump made a $5 million offer to Barack Obama that was ignored by the press and just about everyone else.  The request that Donald Trump made to Barack Obama—that he would write a check for $5 million to any charity of his choice in exchange for his releasing the transcripts and documents from all the places that he attended school and for his passport application.  Barbara Walters made a pitiful appeal to Donald when he was on the show, “The View”, as well as all of the television and radio commentators with a few exceptions.  Barbara said to Mr. Trump that she loved him but he was making a fool out of himself?  Why?

The Wake-up Herald

And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof. Romans 13:11-14

Why You Can't Vote for Either Candidate

In Tuesday’s (10/9/12) The Cincinnati Enquirer there was the front page article, “Fewer in US claim a religion; Protestant ranks slip into minority while non-religious grow.”  The article starts off by saying, “Protestants have dipped to 48 percent of the American population, becoming a minority for the first time in generations, while the ranks of people claiming no religion has steadily risen, a new report says.” 

The article goes on and says on page 5 that Ed Hensley, an organizer with the Louisville Atheists and Freethinkers believes that “People are becoming more tolerant; they’re learning that gays are not evil people, that atheists are not evil people.”  He adds, that “Those with no religion are more liberal politically and more tolerant of homosexuality and abortion.”  That shouldn’t be a surprise to any Christian!  For it is because of our GOD’S law is what makes homosexuality, abortion and atheism an abomination.  God is against all of these sins.

How did this happen?  When our nation started in 1776, the number of Protestants in the United States was a dominate religion with a lot less denominations than now.  Many more Protestant denominations started during the last two centuries; and their doctrine and practices have change greatly.  There were no (501) (C3) churches so most all of the Protestant Churches preached against their hearers committing sins; like homosexuality, abortion, the errors of feminism, usury in the banks, evolution and they are forbidden to tell their congregations not to vote for either of the vice-Presidents because they are Roman Catholics and the non-Christian, anti-Christian present President and the non-Christian, anti-Christian Mormon. Their main doctrines were total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace and perseverance of the saints.

A Study on the Reasons not to incorporate the Church with the State

October 23, 2012

So you want to establish a Church?   Where do you begin?   Is it a good idea to incorporate?   If you incorporate is your church still a Sovereign New Testament Church?   Did Churches always have to incorporate and if not how did they exist?

These are just some of the questions that present themselves when starting a Sovereign Church.  In my research it became quickly apparent that starting a church in America has become increasing more difficult.   One has to go about it completely led by the Lord to fulfill the call set before him by The Lord Jesus Christ.   Our Calling has ceased to be defamed; Christianity is no longer fashionable, and we are often the object of ridicule.  We must proclaim that there are absolutes in a world where relativism rules. It is our job to call people to something beyond themselves in a day when self fulfillment has been elevated as the Ultimate God.  We have to be willing to stand for biblical correctness even when it does not fit into the realm of Political correctness.

A Devastatingly Useful Bit of
Important Information

Early Monday morning, Oct. 15th

Friends,

Let me occupy a moment of your time with something of importance. It happened here on campus, too.

After a "Collage of Choirs" performance this afternoon at the university, I went over to their Library to find some information. Later, while sitting in the lobby, reading some material I found, a young woman student approached me to reply to some questions about the Presidential election.

She was interviewing people on their views about the Presidential race, to be published in a student run campus newspaper. And I did reply, and to her absolute astonishment. So I thought you may be interested in this brief discussion, as it relates to an important event occurring next month.

Most people do not know what I am about to relate to you, and when told, even with “proof,” would at first deny it, and then, be stunned at its import and the subsequent impact. Brace yourself.

Most people, as registered voters, believe they elect the President of the United States. Not true; absolutely Not True.
