Ahmadinejad The Jew

2009-10-04T14:37:00.009-04:00

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the leader of Iran who has threatened the United States and Israel with nuclear eradication was actually born a Jew!

The British Daily Telegraph was apparently the first to break the story that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the leader of Iran, is by birth a Jew.

Ahmadinejad's ID card shows that his true family name is Sabourjian, which is a Jewish name. The Sabourjian name has been concentrated in the Aradan area of Iran, where he was born. The name is on a list of reserved names for Iranian Jews at the Ministry of the Interior, and the ending "jian" specifically shows the family were practicing Jews.

Interestingly, the name translates to "weaver of the Sabour;" according to one report, "sabour" is the Iranian word not just for cloth, but for the talit, or Jewish prayer shawl. So his forefathers were actually weavers of the prayer shawls every Jew wears when he prays both at home and at the synagogue. Well, not every Jew...

Makes me think of the Scripture, Daniel 11:37, which says that one specific characteristic of the Antichrist is that "he will not regard the God of his fathers..."

Ahmadinejad's identity papers show that the Sabourjian family name was changed after his parents converted to Islam when he was a young child. The family moved to Tehran in the 1950's to seek better economic fortunes. Relatives have said that economic and religious pressures led Ahmadinejad's father, who was a blacksmith, to change his name.

Ahmadinejad regularly spews vitriol against Israel, denying its right to even exist, and claims that the Holocaust is a made-up story from which the Jews demanded a homeland in the Middle East. A made-up story? One day when I was in Tel Aviv, I sat on a bus directly opposite a woman who had the concentration camp numbers burned into her arm. It turned my stomach as I realized how she got them. Didn't happen? There are MANY survivors of the Holocaust who are still alive and telling their stories. Didn't happen? When the allies liberated the concentration camps, general Dwight Eisenhower ordered that what they saw be filmed so that no one could ever deny this happened. Take a look here, see the red box on the left:

The Holocaust didn't happen? Click here.

Obviously, when he cries out "death to Israel," he is not including himself. That's ok, he'll someday stand before the God of Israel and give account.

Reminds me of a picture of Arafat,
remember him?

He also hated Israel.

A friend on my email list suggested we break out the Magen David. I responded that I feel more like sitting shiva.

America is Asleep

2009-09-21T16:09:00.002-04:00

You know, it's like the frog in the boiling pot. The water heats up so gradually that the frog doesn't realize how much trouble he's in until it's too late.

Such is the case with America. It's happened so gradually that we haven't noticed it.

How Long Till They're Here?

2009-07-28T19:32:00.004-04:00

It amazes me, the things that DON'T get publicized by the media.

We've all seen clips of terrorist training camps in places on the other side of the world. We yawn. We've heard it so many times, yada yada yada....

With the current administration in power, how long do you think it would take for the Muslims to start terrorist training camps in the US? Take a guess. Ten years? Twenty?

No. It's going on right here, right now. And you haven't heard about it yet? I wonder why?

Reaction To Netanyahu's Speech

2009-06-15T13:30:00.007-04:00

I've just very slowly read Netanyahu's SPEECH and it looks a lot different to me now than it did last night when I saw only the news headlines claiming he has accepted the concept of a "Palestinian" state.

If you read the speech, you hear a man PLEADING with the world for peace. ALL he asks is that Israel be acknowledged as the Jewish State in the land of Israel, to be allowed just to live in peace.

He made some very good points:

1. It was in this land that Israel was born - no, not only in 1948, but 3,500 years ago. It is where Abraham lived, Isaac, Jacob, King David, Solomon, and the other patriarchs of Israel. In fact (my addition) the land that King David ruled over included much more territory than what Israel presently resides in. It is beyond dispute that this is the land where Israel was born - brought into being by God himself.

2. It's really not about land. He makes the point that the attacks against the present-day Jewish people began long before 1948.

Quote:
"The attacks against us began in the 1920s, escalated into a comprehensive attack in 1948 with the declaration of Israel's independence, continued with the fedayeen attacks in the 1950s, and climaxed in 1967, on the eve of he Six-Day War, in an attempt to tighten a noose around the neck of the State of Israel. All this occurred during the fifty years before a single Israeli soldier ever set foot in Judea and Samaria." (the "west bank")

In other words, it's not about land. Take a look at that land: HERE

3. He makes the point that the "Palestinian" refugee problem will be resolved OUTSIDE of Israel's borders. For those who don't know, the "Palestinians" demand that the "refugees" be allowed to return into Israel proper. Can you imagine hundreds of thousands of Muslim "refugees" pouring into tiny Israel? Did you look at that map???

He goes on to say that at the same time the "refugee" problem began, multiple tens of thousands of JEWS were evicted from all Arab lands where they had lived for millenia. My point: Tiny Israel absorbed their Jewish refugee brothers, the Arab countries should absorb theirs.

4. The two requests Israel makes

First, that the Muslims recognize the State of Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people. How can Israel negotiate peace with Muslims who don't even recognize her existence?

Second, that a new "Palestinian" state be demilitarized.
My comments: In 2005, Israel embarked on a very costly experiment. Israel forcibly removed all Jews from the Gaza region. I've been to Gaza, when the Jews lived there. I have pictures of the beautiful greenhouses we visited, the well-kept lands, the thriving community. But in 2005, they were forcibly removed, thousands upon thousands of them, and that land was given over to the "Palestinians." The "Palestinians" thoroughly trashed it. Today it is a heap of poverty and ruination, though tens of millions of dollars were poured into it by the US and the world.

But that's not the main point here. Here's the point: today Gaza is full of "Palestinians" who rain down missiles upon Israel's southern cities daily - tens of thousands of missiles since 2005. So now, they want Israel to give up the "west bank" too? So the same thing can happen there? And make no bones about it because the "Palestinians" don't - that's exactly what would happen. That would be out and out insanity.

Basically, what Netanyahu has said is just let's live side by side in peace, that's all we ask. You can have your "Palestinian" state, we have no desire to rule over you. You'll have your own flag, your own national anthem, your own government. Together we could achieve so much for the next generation of our children.

This is all he said. He submitted to Obama's demand that he stop building settlements or increasing the ones they already have. He's SO willling to venture into peace with the US, the "Palestinians," and the world. All he wants is security for his country. Nothing more.

Warm Muslim Grandfather

2009-04-24T13:23:00.005-04:00

Most of us are used to seeing the diatribes of yelling, screaming Muslim imams whipping up a frenzy of passion to kill the infidels.

They say we can't blame the "moderate" Muslims for the insanity of the radical ones.

Well here's a clip of a nice soft-spoken Muslim man giving a talk. If you were to not read the English subtitles, you'd think this is a nice, grandfatherly elder speaking to nice moderate Muslims about the ways to practice charity in the name of Allah.

So go ahead, listen to this meek and mild teddy-bear of a man. Listen for a bit before you look at the subtitles. Toasty warm ambiance, huh?

Then read the subtitles.

A Response To David Wilkerson’s Message

2009-03-08T10:56:00.011-04:00

Yesterday, David Wilkerson, a much-respected man of God, submitted a warning of a dire calamity to come upon this country. Today his message made Worldnet Daily.

Most believers have known for a long time that judgment will come upon this country.

I want to take a look at the setting.

The Setting

There have been a lot of judgments upon this country already. I believe that 9/11 was a turning point in many ways. For those believing this way, it was obvious that God sent something so severe as to get the attention of every single person, something so terrible that it shook the entire nation. A symbol of America’s wealth came tumbling down in ashes, taking the lives of 3,000 people with it.

America didn’t respond. Oh, people flocked to churches for a couple months; but it was like society discussing a new movie making big news for awhile, then moving on to talk about other things. It did not change the hearts of America as a whole. Evil since then has only increased exponentially.

He sent Katrina, and did it in such a way that there could be no doubt that God was expressing his anger at America’s pressure upon Israel to cede her God-given covenant land to her enemies. Katrina hit just as the last Jewish person was being carried out of Gaza, the result of American pressure upon Israel. The timing was astounding. God was speaking again, but few were listening, except the people who are already in the Kingdom. The American people laughed at us who pointed out the incredible timing. We were scorned for daring to say that Katrina was the direct response from heaven, hitting America on the very day the last Jews were forcibly carried out of their homes.

Then came a multitude of fires, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, many of which were reported to be “record-breaking.” Damages in the billions of dollars, coast to coast.

Yet since then, multitudes of babies have been murdered. Homosexuals parade in the streets. It’s not just murder and sodomy, it’s ripening degeneracy in general. Rich and powerful men being found out, being exposed as the degenerates they are. Truly, truly, this has become a society in which all that is good is called evil, and all that is evil is embraced under the banner of “tolerance.”

"The Change"

Then along comes a man who wants to bring “change” to America. Change from WHAT? From what George Bush did in response to those 3,000 people murdered in New York? Change from the stands he took against embryonic stem cell research? Change from his standing for marriage being defined as one man joined to one woman? Funny how that word “change” never got defined. It didn’t get defined because it would have been hard to come out and say now’s the time to murder in total freedom, to play with genetics, to sodomize whomever one desires and not lose one’s rights to be homosexual elementary school teachers teaching our children that two daddies or two mommies is “normal.”

Many of us have been putting out warning after warning after warning over the years in response to these things, and have SO felt like Noah must have felt as he built that boat, all the while preaching to the people all around him. Every single person outside of his own family who ever heard that man preach, rejected him. Can you imagine the frustration he must have felt? The whole world was against him. Literally. For speaking the truth. We know the rest of the story.

The Big Picture

Let’s step back and take a look at the big picture of American society in this generation.

If you have eyes to see, you'll see a progressive program of intensified evil starting perhaps in the ‘60’s with Madalyn Murray O’Hair. Then came the women’s movement, no more women being women or men being men, let’s just muddy that whole distinction. Then came the “free love” hippies drug culture unleashing unprecedented destruction of youth through mind-altering drugs. Then came the rise of public displays of sodomy in every place in our society, not even stopping at inflicting themselves on our children. Our values have gone down the tubes one after another after another. I would never have believed I’d ever see the day when every single depiction of God, of Jesus, of prayer, of the 10 Commandments, and SO much more, is banned from America. But I've seen that day. We all have.

Scripture tells us that this is exactly the way the “last days” are going to be. See reference Scriptures at the bottom of this message.

The Last Days

Who could doubt that we are in those days?

One of the greatest “signs” Jesus gave of the last days being upon us is the restoration of the nation of Israel. What was said to be totally impossible just a hundred years ago, has happened in the restoration of the Jews to the land of their fathers. Israel, born in a day. In the exact place where it left off.

We look at the alignment of the nations. The very alliances we see in our daily news media are the alliances foretold THOUSANDS of years ago by the prophets. The very nations mentioned in the last-days events are, as we speak, aligned just as they were foretold. Russia, Iran, China, the European confederation, and so on.

What’s missing from the picture?

There’s nothing missing of the “signs” Scripture tells us will indicate the last days. If we connect the dots, the picture is clear. To those who have the eyes to see it.

“The Change” That Will change the Era

And now, the elections of 2008. America has been made ready for “The Change.” A man quickly arises to power, seemingly out of nowhere, a man of Muslim descent, without the ability to prove he’s even an American citizen, who’s spoken openly about his heart towards Islam, who we know was produced by the likes of Jeremiah Wright, who OPENLY speaks of allowing infant murder even after a live birth, who is pro-sodomy, who makes his first official telephone call to the arch-enemy of Israel, and SO much more... and America doesn’t see the whole picture? They swoon at his feet, some calling him the Messiah, others calling him the President of the World...

This train can’t be stopped. I believe America has finally stepped over the line to the place of no return. We’ve had several severe warnings, but America has banished God from society and from their minds, so how on earth are they going to “get it?”

I receive the message David Wilkerson brought. Had he never brought it, most believers have expected something like what he describes anyway.

My conclusion is that we may be facing a time of unprecedented calamity, the very wrath of God upon a God-rejecting society; but also unprecedented opportunity to persuade those who haven’t yet become hardened beyond remedy.

The time is short.

Be prepared.

Hillary's Costly Trip To Israel

2009-03-02T09:31:00.003-05:00

Here we go again.

For those of you who are familiar with the phenomenon concerning judgment on America within 48 hours of America coercing Israel to give up more of her God-given land.....

As America's Secretary of State begins her visit to the Middle East, America is pummelled with a severe blizzard that so far has cost 4 people their lives and that has landed damage in the thousands of dollars upon states from Alabama up to the northeast.

Here are just some of the stats:

4 dead
The blizzard-like snow, sleet, freezing rain and wind gusts of up to 30 mph in Massachusetts, Rhode Island contributed to four deaths on roads in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and on New York's Long Island.

Churches closed in Alabama
-because of snow?!!!

Flights cancelled
100 flights cancelled in Boston alone
100's cancelled in New York
300 flights cancelled in New Jersey

Buses cancelled
Greyhound and Peter Pan bus lines cancelled trips affecting travelers in and out of New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New Jersey.

Code Blue in Philadelphia
Philadelphia declared a Code Blue weather emergency, briniging in homeless people to shelters because the weather conditions pose a threat of serious harm or death.

Costs to New Jersey
...in the millions

No electricity
100,000 lose electricity in North Carolina
74, 000 lose power in South Carolina
123,000 lose power in Virginia

So Hillary's visit to Israel today is costing the US in death, massive power outages, and thousands of travellers stranded with flight cancellations.

And she's only just started!

Terrorists Enter Through Fake Marriages

2008-12-04T10:03:00.003-05:00

There's been a lot of talk about the relative ease with which terrorists can gain entrance into the US by crossing unprotected borders.

Well they've devised an easier way. All they have to do is marry an American.

I've known some of these Muslim types, and boy can they turn on the charm. I've watched as they've approached young women tourists and had them leaving with them within a half hour. Smooth, suave, gentle smiling faces, and great swelling words of flattery did the trick and did it quickly. I always wondered what became of those young women.

There was an article on this in WorldNet Daily. Here are some excerpts:

WorldNet Daily
A new report reveals previously deported criminals and terrorists who want to enter or remain in the U.S. can do so by finding an American to marry.

The Center for Immigration Studies reported the most common path to U.S. citizenship or residency for foreign nationals is by marrying an American. More than 2.3 million people entered the U.S. between 1998 and 2007 this way.

According to the report by former consular officer David Seminara, foreigners who wed U.S. citizens receive immediate preference status for immigrant visas. 27 percent of all green cards issued in 2007 were to spouses of Americans.

The problem is evident when one takes into consideration frequent arrests for marriage fraud schemes and the thousands of websites that arrange scam marriages, he said.

He listed the following common types of marriage fraud:

* Mail order bride arrangements
* Phony "arranged" marriages in cultures where arranged marriage
is still common.
* Cash-for-vows weddings, where Americans are paid to wed.
* Friends-and-family plans, where someone pitches in to help get
someone else's spouse to the United States.
* "I do, I don't, I do" marriages where foreign nationals divorce their
spouses in their home countries, marry Americans, and get green
cards two years later; then divorce the Americans, remarry their
original spouses, and petition to bring them to the United States.
* Heartbreakers, where foreigners dupe Americans into believing
their intentions are true, when they actually just want a green card.

Once couples receive conditional status on a foreigner's green card, they are required to stay married for only two years. After that period, they may divorce without consequence.

Seminara reveals criminals and terrorists have caught on to marriage fraud schemes. He referenced Janice Kephart's 2005 report titled, "Immigration and Terrorism," where she outlined how terrorists, including members of al-Qaida, have participated in marriage schemes to remain in the U.S.

"Once in the United States, 16 of 23 terrorists became legal permanent residents, often by marrying an American," Kephart wrote. "Marrying a U.S. citizen is one of the easiest ways to stay in the United States once within the country's borders."

Spanish authorities taped a conversation on May 26, 2004, in which Rebei Osman described the theory "by which the end justifies the means for the cause of jihad:"

Everything is permitted including marrying with Christian women, because we need immigration papers. We have to be everywhere, in Germany, in Holland, in London. We are dominating Europe with our presence. The women serve to obtain documents, because we are in favor of the cause of God.

Seminara said previously deported illegal aliens with criminal records often obtain green cards by marrying U.S. citizens as well.

"For illegal immigrants, finding an American spouse is not just an aspiration, it's a mission, and it is the most common way of returning to the United States for those who have been deported."

Obama America's Downfall

2008-11-02T11:06:00.006-05:00

Many of you may have noticed that I have not gotten very involved in this election process.

I'm not going to go into the reasons why. Those who know me personally know why. To the rest, my reasons wouldn't interest you.

Howeve, now that the date is almost upon us, I will make a statement:

Some Americans will vote for Obama BECAUSE of their dislike of Bush and fear that a McCain presidency would be more of the same.

Would it be? I don't know. But I do know that that is not a good enough reason to vote for Obama.

Barack Hussein Obama stands for everything that is evil. His voting record, his statements, and his associations should make every American, religious or not, shudder.

Obama is a man with such little disregard for human life that he voted three times to let babies die AFTER birth, the ones who have survived attempted abortion.

He is a man who is so insensitive to the Word of God that he is eager to legitimize marriage between people of the same sex, in spite of God's declaration that this is an abomination before him.

He is a man who has shady ties with underworld characters, socialists, communists, and even terrorists.

He is a man who has so little disregard for our Constitution that he's not afraid to called it "a flawed document." That statement alone should raise the hairs on the arms of every American citizen. I can hardly believe the fearless acceptance of this man by intelligent people. How low have we sunk if this awful man becomes the most powerful man in the world.

Though I've not said much, I've been watching nevertheless. And throughout, what has consistently come to mind is that the Bible foretells that in "the last days" the people will be given over to "strong delusion." That passage has come to mind again and again as I've watched the incredible phenomenon of a people swooning over a man such as this. Reminds me of pictures I've seen of the masses cheering Adolph Hitler. I believe the hypnosis Obama has over his swooners is nothing less. This man has succeeded in mesmerizing at least half the adult population of our country. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it.

People who spout about the so-called "separation of church and state" want a country without legislation against immorality, BUT they're about to bring in a man who will legislate immorality! A man who will legislate lawlessness. A man who has stood on the side of evil throughout his voting career.

Here's what America is about to choose:
* Abortion on demand.
* All demand for parental notification of minor girls before abortion will be erased from law.
* National legalization of homosexual marriage.
* National legalization of homosexual adoption and teaching the like in public elementary schools.
* Defunding of advanced military weapons development (while we rein in the insane Ahmadinejad with "diplomacy.")
* Criminalizing as "hate speech" any speaking out about evil according to God's Word as given to us in the Bible.
* This man's associations with Islamic figures and organizations forewarn what the US will do concerning Israel.

This is not about political direction, this is about opening the doors for evil to permeate this nation to its very fiber.

America, you want "change?" Oh, you'll get change alright!

"I fear for my country when I reflect that God is just."
Thomas Jefferson

"Just as they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations, so will I choose their delusions, and bring their fears on them. Because, when I called, no one answered, when I spoke they did not hear; But they did evil before My eyes, and chose that in which I do not delight.''
Isaiah 66:3-4

"The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

Obama Tied To PLO Terrorist Group

2008-10-28T09:10:00.011-04:00

More and more, information continues to come to light about Obama's shady associations, yet the American people ignore it and give him their vote anyway.

The Bible says that in the "last days," people will be given over to delusion. This is a good example of a people totally disregarding the blatant evidence and continuing to back a person regardless of the darkness with which he has been associated.

Sean Hannity of Fox News exposes Obama's ties to a former leading member of the PLO terrorist group. Yes, that's Yasser Arafat's organization.

I first saw this at my friend Abouna's blog:

Islam Infiltrating Our Schools!

2008-10-03T16:12:00.005-04:00

I am seething. I can hardly believe it.

I should have known, but I just would never have believed that it would happen here.

We've known for a very long time that Islam thoroughly perverts the truth and indoctrinates its children in hatred for everyone and everything not Muslim.

That is, in their elementary schools, right?

Well would you believe ...it's happening here too?!?

Dr. Gary Tobin, president of "The Institute for Jewish & Community Research", along with associate Dennis Ybarra, conducted a study on American textbooks and published their findings in their book, "The Trouble with Textbooks: Distorting History and Religion."

The study reveals that "American public school students are being loaded up with indoctrination about Christianity, Judaism, Islam and the Middle East, to the cost of Christianity and Judaism and the benefit of Islam."

One textbook, "The World," by Scott Foresman, dares say, "Christianity was started by a young Palestinian named Jesus."

JESUS, a "Palestinian?" When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, there was no Islam, there was no Mohammed, and Bethlehem was an Israeli town in Judea, Israel, where also King David was born. Both Jesus and David were of the tribe of Judah. Judah, you know, one of the sons of Jacob.

Here's more of what was found AMERICAN textbooks:

* The Arab nations never attacked Israel.

* Arabs nations want peace, but Israel does not.

* Israel expelled all Palestinian refugees.

* Israel put the Palestinians in refugee camps in Arab lands.

* Palestinian terrorism is nonexistent or minimal.

* Israel is not a victim of terrorism.

*Terrorism against Israel is justified.

* U.S. support of Israel causes terrorism, including 9/11.

What you WON'T find, is the fact that Jesus will return as a JEW, to Jerusalem, and will rule on the Throne of David, and the nations that came against Israel will be severely judged. Gee, I wonder why they left that out!

This makes me absolutely livid. In reading the article, I felt a feeling of helplessness come over me. Just yesterday I said to a friend, "What's happening in America reminds me of watching someone die of cancer, knowing there's nothing you can do to stop it."

I said that because that's what I see happening to this once-great nation. Morality has packed up its bags and left, God is banned, evil runs rampant...

And now, Islam is succeeding in taking over bit by bit by bit while we sit back and let it happen as we bow before the god of tolerance! ! !

I believe that Islam is THE tool Satan will use to bring about all that's prophesied concerning "the last days." Who can deny that's it's half-way there already? Look at Europe -in most European countries there are more mosques than churches.

WHY IS IT that the world is just sitting back and letting it happen? Makes me think of that drug that is given in date rape.

Have we gone blind? Have we taken leave of our senses? Are we utterly insane?

I mourn for this country, and not only for this country but for the entire world that is being brought under Islam.

There's no chemotherapy for this one. It's stage four already.

Nothing more to do but to mourn.

The post-modern "emerging" church propaganda are being revealed as we move further and further away from a faith founded on the Word of God.

Believers of a variety of faiths are worshipping together. Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, Zoroastrian, Judaic, Christian and Islamic texts are read aloud during the same service at a Muslim Sufi religious retreat in New York. The Sufi Muslim retreat leader speaks about Jesus and the peace that he has inside. (warm fuzzies)

"Abode of the Message," a retreat center in New Lebanon, New York: guests are invited to deepen their faith without suggestion to convert to anything.

Buddhists at Zen Mountain Monastery say they see no conflict with Buddhist practice and any person's search for God. (more warm fuzzies)

Elat Chayyim Jewish Retreat Center in Falls Village, Connecticut, welcomes "seekers who have walked other spiritual paths."

83 percent of mainline Protestants
59 percent of historic black Protestant churches
79 percent of Roman Catholics
82 percent of Jews
56 percent of Muslims
... agree that many religions can lead to eternal life.

So what's the problem with this?

Well, it should be unacceptable to Christians, BECAUSE Christians are those who believe in Jesus Christ and who follow him. Obviously, Christians, by definition, believe what he said. At least that's the way it has been up until this century.

Well, what DID Jesus say?

The New Testament record, written exclusively by eye-witness followers of Jesus, teaches that human beings are born in a state of fallenness. This means that all humans will sin, and sin will bring them to judgment.¹ The good news of the Gospel is that God sent his son Jesus, to bear the judgment for sin on behalf of each sinner, and that those who receive him will have eternal life. The New Testament stresses that we are saved by the blood of the sacrifice God provided. This concept was introduced at the very beginning of the Bible² when the sin of man brought death into the world, both physical and spiritual.

Satan's agenda³ is to dismiss every truth about Jesus Christ. He will attack his deity, his virgin birth, and everything written about Him. He will underplay, ridicule, and steer you away from the concepts of the Cross, and the Blood of Christ. And he will foster every and any other way of religion. From the beginning, Satan's hatred has been against the work of Jesus on the cross.

Do Christians really believe what Jesus said? He said that He came to be the atonement for sinful man, and as the atonement provided by God, there is therefore no other way to salvation.⁴

The Bible speaks of a global religion in "the last days."⁵As one who has been watching these things for more than 30 years, I stand in shock and horror as this very thing evolves into just that. It raises the hair on my arms. As in the days of Noah, the human race is going to perdition on a toboggan slide into hell. Jesus said that the last days would be "As it was in the days of Noah ...." And so it is!⁶

Thirty years ago, it was a stretch to imagine how this global religion could come to be, because the people of most religions were immoveable in their beliefs. But now, in these "last days," that very thing is taking shape right before our eyes. Except, most aren't watching and they're falling for it by the masses.

For those who believe in the Lord Jesus, stay close to him, because it's going to get worse.⁷ Much, much worse. Many think revival is coming. I don't, but I sure hope they're right and I'm wrong. I see the great apostacy,⁸ the falling away as the world sets its heart on global peace, global environmentalism, global warming, the polar bears in the arctic, the fuzzy wuzzies, and all that avoids the one true God and his Word given to us in the Bible. Everything and anything except the Word of God.

Evil progresses at an incredible and alarming pace. Just when you think you've seen the worst, something even more evil comes upon the scene.

Here's something that shows the character of the man who wants to sit in the White House. The alarming part isn't so much what he stands for, as it is the multitudes who are in agreement with him.

I obtained this video from Gayle's Republican Blog. And it was first seen at Abouna's Blog, two good blogging friends of mine.

May God have mercy on us.

I Sure Wouldn't Want To Be In HIS Shoes!

2008-06-27T17:07:00.005-04:00

In these last days, the workings of Satan are just prolific all around us. There has been a palpable change in the atmosphere. Even unbelievers are noticing it. A certain dread in the air as "natural" disasters are occuring all around us.

When I read the following, it was as though I could see the scrunched up face of Satan as he hurled yet another insult at his archenemy, the Messiah of Israel. Well ....I sure wouldn't want to be in the shoes of the man whose lips spoke these words:

Saeb Erekat, senior spokesman for PLO chief Mahmoud Abbas, asserted on Thursday that the "successful" outcome of the land-for-peace process would make a greater impact on the Middle East than that made by Jesus Christ. Erekat, speaking at a conference in Tel Aviv said, "The Israeli and Palestinian leaders who reach an agreement will be more important to the region's history than Jesus."

This reminded me of the following people who are now in their graves:

John Lennon of "The Beatles"
"Christianity will end, it will disappear ....We're more popular than Jesus now. I don't know which will go first, rock 'n' roll or Christianity."
John Lennon was shot six times.

Marilyn Monroe, actress
After hearing what Billy Graham had to say, she said to him:
"I don't need your Jesus."
One week later, she was found dead in her apartment.

Cazuza, bi-sexual Brazilian composer and singer
During a show in Rio de Janeiro, he puffed out some cigarette smoke into the air and said, "God, that's for you."
He died a horrible death at the age of 32 -of LUNG CANCER.

Bon Scott, singer
In one of his songs he sang:
"Don't stop me; I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell."
Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.

Christine Hewitt, Jamaican journalist
She said the Bible (the Word of God) was the worst book ever written.
She was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle.

Tancredo Neves, President of Brazil
He said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.
He got the votes, but a day before being made President he got sick and then he died.

William Pirrie, president of the company that built the Titanic
After the construction, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it."
We all know what happened to the Titanic on its MAIDEN voyage.

Our Morally Bankrupt Justices

2008-06-12T15:38:00.005-04:00

I used to watch "Dragnet" as a kid, and grew up thinking our justice system to be absolutely beyond question. What on earth has happened to our country? We hear reports like the following almost daily, and they expose the morally bankrupt system that presides over our society. I don't know about you, but this makes me nauseous:

Two reports, just from today's news:

Story #1:
The chief judge in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Alex Kozinski, has been caught posting graphic, sexually explicit photos and videos on his website while he's presiding over an obscenity case in Los Angeles.

He said he thought the site was for his private storage and that he was not aware the images could be seen by the public. (Yeah, right! Even the dumbest among us would check that out first)

The paper reported images of nudity, genitalia, public sex, bestiality, and graphic images of things too raw to be further enumerated here.

A law professor who specializes in legal ethics, said the judge no longer should be on the case, as "the public can reasonably question his objectivity." The case in question involves a Los Angeles filmmaker accused of distributing criminally obscene sexual-fetish videos. (Maybe the judge will do a plea bargain, if the man will post his stuff on the judge's web site?)

Public access to the site has been blocked after reporters started asking questions.

-----------------------------------------------------

Story #2
Massachusetts Gov. Duval Patrick has appointed lesbian activist Maureen Monks as associate justice of the Middlesex Probate and Family Court, ignoring a dissenting vote by the Massachusetts Governor's Council.

She needed to win 5 votes to be confirmed but only received a 4-4 vote denying confirmation. (Go figure.)

Activist Maureen Monks is co-chair of the Massachusetts Lesbian and Gay Bar Association, and is an advocate for "gay" and women's rights.

Councilor Mary-Ellen Manning presented a statement explaining her objection to Monks' nomination, saying Monks did not disclose her history of "teaching same-sex marriage concepts to high school students" to the Governor's Council. Manning also said Monks's history shows she is prone to side with women over men and that her appointment would be in conflict with the public's perception of fair treatment. (I think the public has lost hope of "fair treatment.")

Gov. Patrick said he considers the 5-2 verbal vote to be an official count, though the Massachusetts Constitution requires that all official votes be recorded. (But of course! He has a reputation to uphold!)

Muslims Leave God of Hate, Find God of Love

2008-05-30T11:50:00.009-04:00

In the midst of the oppression and despair of multitudes living under Islam, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is visiting many of them personally and touching them with love.

One of the greatest moves of God is taking place right now among Muslim people worldwide. Once they have been touched by love, something never to be found in Islam, hearts are awakened to the knowledge that the great Creator is also the God of love, not hate.

I spent several years in the Middle East, and I'll never forget one conversation with a ten-year-old boy who was selling his wares on the streets. One day this little boy approached us as we sat at a bet-cafe in downtown Jerusalem. My husband spoke Arabic, so I asked him to ask the boy why he was smoking cigarettes at such a young age, and didn't he know it would make him sick and kill him at an early age?

The child answered, "So what? What do I have to live for?"

My heart broke over the absolute despair I saw in the heart of this little child. I have grieved over him in prayer many a time since.

So I take great joy in reporting that a great move of God is taking place among the Muslim peoples. They are coming to faith in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in record numbers world-wide.

Funny the media aren't talking about it.

Click on the link below to hear the testimony of one young man who was delivered from the deep deception of Islam, upon being visited by the God of love.

Let's make known the utterly wonderful move of God taking place among a very oppressed people.

Earthquakes!

2008-05-14T15:21:00.008-04:00

It astounds me that the news media aren't picking up on this!

There have been 16 earthquakes of 6.0 or more on the Richter Scale, SINCE JANUARY! ! ! And two more at 5.9.

Why are the media silent?

Jesus, when he told the signs of his coming, named "earthquakes in various places." When we see these, along with the other signs he cited, we are to know we're entering into "the time of sorrows," which will be the last seven years up until his coming. All the signs have to be there at the same time, and He said they will be like birth pains.

"For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences (diseases), and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows."
Matthew 24:8

The chart below shows the places and strengths of each earthquake since January 2008.

All Get "Tolerance" EXCEPT Christians

2008-04-18T09:18:00.016-04:00

I believe that there is a tremendous move of Satan himself behind incidents such as the following news item. Take a look and if you're not totally blind (yet), an incident such as depicted below makes it just too obvious.

It doesn't even make common sense. Why are the news media flooded with demands for a forced "separation of chuch and state," but at the same time putting forth the only REAL "discrimination" in this country, which is discrimination against anything Christian?

Anything occult, and anything Muslim, is being allowed everywhere. All Muslim sensitivities are being protected. But at the same time, all expression of Christianity is being feverishly banned.

Occultism, the "New Age" movement, and Islam, are taking over not only this country but most of the world, and anything they want to do in our schools is "tolerated." Yet when you do see anything smacking of real "discrimination," it's almost always against anything Christian.

Can someone explain this to me?

-------------------------------------------------------

The news item:

A court in Wisconsin has been asked to suspend immediately a policy in theTomah Area School District that bans Christian symbols in students' artwork, but allows Hindu, Buddhist and satanic representations. ( ! ! ! )

The Alliance Defense Fund launched a lawsuit on the student's behalf after a teacher refused to give him a grade on a project because his work included "John 3:16" as well as "As sign of love."

The school district, however, openly acknowledged and publicized various pieces of "art" representing Buddhism, and Hinduism as well as several Satanic-looking demon faces.

Allowing demonic depictions by some students while prohibiting Christian religious expression in artwork by others is a blatant violation of the Constitution," said a senior ADF legal counsel.

The lawsuit was filed late last month after the student's artwork was rejected, then he was told he had signed away his First Amendment rights at the beginning of the semester in order to participate in the class. At the time he signed the policy, he had no idea that it would be so restricting of religious expression in the class.

Further, the student is a minor and was denied the opportunity "to seek advice from counsel" before being required to sign, ADF said.

The ADF's motion noted: "While penalizing A.P.'s religious expression, defendants prominently displayed in the school's hallway a large painting of a six-limbed Hindu woman riding a swan figure. …Elsewhere, on a hallway bulletin board, there hangs a drawing of a robed sorcerer." A Hindu fountain that also was allowed.

The law firm said the district displays artwork reflecting Hindu, Buddhist and Satanic themes all over. "It is displayed in classrooms, including the very classroom where district officials met to reiterate to A.P. that his Christian religious expression warranted no constitutional protection," the law firm said.

"The fact that the student was not only refused a grade on the project, but given two detentions creates "a draconian atmosphere …that evinces a manifest hostility toward Christianity," he said.

"An incredible fact in this case is that in the very same room in which defendants Jackson, Millin, and Genrich conducted their parent-teacher conference with A.P. and his family – and reiterated their policies banning student religious expression in class assignments – defendants displayed student drawings of the Greek goddess Medusa, a demonic figure with horns, scales, and protruding tongue, several demonic masks, and a drawing of the Grim Reaper, holding a scythe," he said.

"Here, the school permits some religious expression in its classrooms and hallways, as long as it is not Christian religious expression," the ADF said.

British Insanity

2008-04-15T09:07:00.012-04:00

Have you ever read, "The Screwtape Letters" by C. S. Lewis? If not, order it on Amazon.com and read it. It will give you clear and stunning insight into SO MANY unexplainable happenings in society.

If you have read it, you'll understand this picture that came into my mind after reading the Worldnet Daily article below:

Muslims: "Let's buy our way into the universities so
we can brainwash up-and-coming youth and make
them putty in our hands."

Brits: "Ok. We do need to express tolerance to all
peoples."

Hold that picture as you read this news item:

----------------------------------------------------------------

April 14, 2008
WorldNetDaily

Jonathan Evans, director-general of the (British) Security Service, MI5, has warned the government that donations of hundreds of millions of pounds from Saudi Arabia and powerful Muslim organizations in Pakistan, Indonesia and the Gulf Straits have led to a "dangerous increase in the spread of extremism in leading university campuses," according to Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.

Eight of Britain's leading universities have accepted more than 236 million pounds sterling, about $460 million, in donations from Muslim organizations, "many of which are known to have ties to extremist groups, some have links to terrorist organizations."

A major donation has included 20 million pounds sterling from the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia to help establish the Oxford Center for Islamic Studies, which will be affiliated to the university when it opens next year.

A lengthy investigation revealed 70 percent of political lectures at the Middle Eastern Center at St. Anthony’s College in Oxford were "implacably hostile to the West and Israel."

"Up to 48 universities in Britain have been infiltrated by fundamentalists financed by Muslim groups. The potential threat this poses is obvious to the security of the country," said Prof. Anthony Glees, director of Brunel University's Center for Intelligence and Security Studies.

However, Prime Minister Gordon Brown insists it is strategically "important to study Islam." He has authorized one million pounds sterling to be spent at the campuses on a counter radicalization drive. ( ! ! ! )

Our Rights As Christians Slowly Vanishing

2008-04-12T09:15:00.002-04:00

I've been saying it for a long time: the word "tolerance" will be what will bring this country down. Satan has convinced us that "tolerance" is an inalienable right and uppermost in importance in this downward-spiraling society. All expression of morality will be censored and suppressed until we have a police state by, with, and for the practictioners of evil.

Case #1:

Christian Photographers Fined For Refusing Same-sex Ceremony
State hits couple with $6,600 penalty for violating anti-discrimination law

The state of New Mexico has ordered a family-owned photography company to pay more than $6,600 for declining a demand to take pictures at a same-sex ceremony, and a lawyer who is working on an appeal says it is an example of how "non-discrimination" or "hate" laws can be weapons in the hands of homosexual activists.

"The Constitution prohibits the state from forcing unwilling people to promote a message they disagree with and thereby violate their conscience," said Jordan Lorence, senior counsel with the Alliance Defense Fund. "The commission's decision shows stunning disregard for our client's First Amendment rights, and we will appeal…" he said.

In its ruling this week, the commission found: "Vanessa Willock proved her discrimination claim based on sexual orientation." The Christian couple was ordered to pay Willock $6,637.94.

"There is a great threat to our religious liberties and our ability to speak out in favor of traditional marriage when these non-discrimination laws are interpreted in such a harsh way to censor Christians and others," he said.

Case #2:

Prof To Student: Keep The Faith, Lose The Grade
April 11, 2008

The ACLJ said it is representing Gina DeLuca, a student who has been punished with lower grades and has been labeled "closed-minded" by a professor, because he demands that students acknowledge the possibility that God does not exist in order to participate in his philosophy class, which is required for graduation.

In the letter to Suffolk County Attorney Christine Malafi, the ACLJ explained the problem started when DeLuca took the required philosophy class. She's been a student at the school for two years, and holds a 3.9 grade point average. She even got good grades in the philosophy class "until her religious beliefs became known," the organization said.

In addition to the lower grades, the ACLJ said, the professor has called the student "closed-minded," "uncritical," "hurtful," and "blinded by belief."

"While a college professor may encourage students to be informed about viewpoints and arguments that differ from their own, it is inappropriate – and unconstitutional – for a public college professor to make passing a required course (and thus graduation) contingent upon a student's willingness to express agreement with philosophical viewpoints that conflict with her religious beliefs," the ACLJ said.

Obama's Religion

2008-03-27T20:11:00.011-04:00

This is a controversial subject, I know. It's a question that should not have been asked, in my opinion. Nevertheless, here it is. And I need to comment on it. See the reference news report below, after my comments.

Barak Obama says he believes Christ died for his sins.

Hold it right there. Does he really believe that? Look, he's a politician drooling over the big win. A lot is said for effect. A lot of planning goes into what is said publicly by the ones campaigning. They play to the audience. They say what they think will be most successful in getting votes. So. Is Obama playing to the conservative Christian vote? Listen, it would be a cold day in hell before any candidate wanting to win this election would say something like, "keep your religious convictions to yourself, I'm not interested." But I suspect that's actually closer to the truth than anything either candidate has actually said.

Obama's next words prove the point. He goes on to say that those of other beliefs are also "children of God." And that his mother is in heaven because she was a kind and generous person.

1. NO ONE goes to heaven on the basis of being kind and generous.

2. The Jesus who Obama says he believes in said the following:
....""I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the
..... Father except through Me."
..... John 14:6

Jesus said he is the one way, and that no one gets there other than through him. You can't claim Jesus died for your sins, and then reject what this same Jesus said about salvation.

Some of you are thinking, "how narrow!" Well Jesus had something to say about that too:

"...narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are FEW who find it." Matthew 7:14

Obama's words are just that - just words. Conjured up words according to what he thinks he needs to say to get the vote.

"They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds."
..Jude 1:12

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the report:

Obama Contends Belief In Jesus Christ Not Necessary For Salvation
AP - 3/27/2008

GREENSBORO, N.C. - Senator Barack Obama has told an audience that although he believes Christ died for his sins, those who reject that teaching can also be children of God.

During a campaign stop yesterday in Greensboro, North Carolina, Senator Obama told the audience that he believes he "can have everlasting life" because Jesus Christ died for his sins. But he then told a questioner that he believes Jews and Muslims who live moral lives are just as much "children of God" as he is. The Illinois Democrat added that his late mother didn't share his faith but was a kind and generous person, so he's "sure she's in heaven."

In his life and in his politics, Obama said he asks himself, "How can I apply Jesus's teachings in a very concrete way?" (NOT the way you're doing it now, Obama!)

Obama's religious beliefs have been put in the spotlight over recent revelations about his former pastor. Videotapes of some of Pastor Jeremiah Wright's sermons have been described as being racist and anti-America. Yesterday, the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination for president referred to those sermon remarks as being "stupid," but he continues to reject suggestions that he should have left the church because of that kind of preaching from his pastor.

Obama Renounces Former Pastor?

2008-03-15T08:51:00.007-04:00

So Obama denounces the hate-filled, anti-America words of his pastor, Jeremiah Wright Jr, which were made public this week. Yep, Obama "vehemently condemns" his pastor's words.

Do you believe that?

Ok, picture this:
Obama sits with his campaign counselors and they have to come up with a way to counter the very campaign-damaging remarks made by his pastor of 20+ years. Picture yourself a fly on the wall during this campaign-planning session. Obviously Obama can't say to the public, "yea, he said those things and that's part of the reason I've stayed in his church for 20 years." Whew, can't say that! And we can't ignore the statements either, that would be campaign suicide.

So ok. The pastor's statements are so damaging to the campaign, the question now is how do we undo this? And the results of this damage-control session are:

"Let me say at the outset that I vehemently disagree and
strongly condemn the statements that have been the subject
of this controversy. I categorically denounce any statement
that disparages our great country or serves to divide us from
our allies. I also believe that words that degrade individuals
have no place in our public dialogue, whether it's on the
campaign stump or in the pulpit. In sum, I reject outright
the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue."

Well ......what else COULD he say?

His speech writer should get a raise.

So. Well. Do you believe the sentiments Obama gave the public as a counter to the vitriol coming from his pastor?

If you do, I've got a bridge to sell you...

The news out today reports the illustrious pastor as saying America created the Aids epidemic to keep the rich rich and the poor poor!!! Oh my, back to the drawing board!
