Half Way Through 2018

SF Stagecoach, NV

Dear Brothers, Sisters & Unsaved,

    Can you believe how fast this 1st half of 2018 has gone.  5 more months and we're back to celebrating the birth of Jesus.  Yes, I know Jesus was not born on December 25th, but it's what the government(s) give us to celebrate.

    We need to change the holidays wishing others, not what the governments(s) allow us! such as;

1. Easter - should be Resurrection Day
2. Thanksgiving - when we should celebrate the blessings of, Grace [meaning undeserved FAVOR of God] and His Mercy [meaning undeserved Forgiveness], because of His Love for us.
3. Christmas celebrating the birth; death and Jesus' completion of ALL 353 PROPHECIES, in the Bible about Jesus that were fulfilled, of His coming and what He would do for mankind.

    [Psalm 40:7 NKJV] 7 Then I said, "Behold, I come; In the scroll [dead sea scrolls] of the book [it is] written of me.

    Everyone know this one:

   [John 3:16-18 NKJV] 16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 "For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

    Unfortunately, they only read the 16th verse.  Yes, God does love the world, so He did send Jesus, who is God's only begotten Son.  Verse 17, tells us God's purpose was not to make His Son suffer for nothing, but to allow us to spend eternity with Abba [God] and Jesus, and it was so bad on earth - it took a Perfect, Sinless Deliverer that only the Son of God could deliver us from.  Please re-read verse 18 the ONLY CONDITION to be saved; IF YOU BELIEVE IN HIM [JESUS].

    Believe it or not, that's why so many say "there are several ways to go to Heaven" - they want you to go to hell.  But to my knowledge, no other religion claims, when your spirit leaves your body you'll be in Heaven - except for the Bible.  And yes, the anagram of Bible is, Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. 

    Many know the name of Billy Graham who was the greatest Evangelist bringing many to Jesus and this is what he said about Heaven:

    "The Bible doesn’t answer all our questions about Heaven – but it does tell us that it will be far more glorious than anything we can imagine. Heaven is like the most perfect and beautiful place we can possibly conceive – only more so.  Only in Heaven will we know exactly what Heaven is like. People have speculated for centuries about what Heaven will be like – some realistic, some fanciful (or even perverse)."

    Pray for the unsaved in your cities, and countries.  Don't stop, because the difference between Heaven and hell are complete opposites - hell will not be a party, just hot, isolated, torment and constant misery you cannot imagine.

    Don try to imagine, watch a Christian man, who went to hell for 23 minutes.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIyMXajbpZg&t=7s   I'm thankful, I'm assured I'm saved, in fact, I would not want to live a day without my Lord.  I am blessed, protected and Loved daily.  He's not the only one who's gone to hell, thankfully a FEW [this is not normal] returned to change their lives, serving Jesus by telling others what hell is really like.

    There is Scripture that backs this:

    [Luke 16:19-31 NKJV] 19 "There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. 20 "But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, 21 "desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 "So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 "And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 "Then he cried and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' 25 "But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. 26 'And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.' 27 "Then he said, 'I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house, 28 'for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.' 29 "Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.' 30 "And he said, 'No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.' 31 "But he said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.' "

    God sent Old Testament deliverers, like Moses, Samson, etc., besides the many prophets they killed.   Even the parable of the Landowner in Matthew 21:33-38, sent his servants twice and they beat them, then killed them both times.  Finally the landowner said I'll send my son, surely they will respect him.  But in verse 37, they said " This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance."  They knew this was the landowners son, who all his fathers possessions would be given to the son as his inheritance.  Just as Jesus' inheritance is the earth - where we will live with Him forever. 

    The bottom line here is YOU HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE.  Abba nor Jesus will force you to choose them.  They only want to have fellowship with you.  Up until your last breath, He knocks at the door of your heart to accept Him.  For it IS HIS DESIRE THAT NONE SHOULD PERISH!  If you don't get a chance to take a last breath, it'll be to late.  Please, Please, Please don' wait.

God's Desire

[3 John 1:2-5 NKJV] 2 Beloved [that's you!], I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.[condition] 3 For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified of the truth [that is] in you, just as you walk in the truth.[the Bible] 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.[with Jesus] 5 Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the brethren and for strangers,"

DON'T WAIT TO LONG - HE IS COMING SOON

Blessings,

 My Prayer For The World

    [Colossians 1:9-12 NKJV] 9 For this reason I also, since the day I heard it, I do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing [Him], being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy that will strengthen you; 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.
