I simply believed without question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recently, I&#39;ve come to understand something so clearly and I think we all need to see through this cloudy glass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are 3 clues, in the Bible, to explain the truth to us. One is knowing &#39;the sons of God saw the daughters of man&#39;....Knowing angels cannot procreate, something had to change in order for them to procreate in this mortal life. &amp;nbsp;We learn in the New Testament, &#39;they left their original habitat&#39;. We also learn &#39;we will be like Him...we will see Him as He is&#39; which means we will be changed into the existence that Jesus is after the ascension. Going back to the garden, we read where they &#39;realized&#39; they were naked. You and I know that this can&#39;t have much meaning in the mortal sense, considering married couples see each other naked all the time. So what changed?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I now realize Adam and Eve were in the same existence that Jesus is today, which it not a mortal existence. It is what we&#39;ve referred to as &#39;celestial body&#39;. When the original two sinned against God, they took on the sin of mortality, they became what we are now today. It explains why God made them clothing of skins. He had to teach them how to live in this mortal existence. It also explains why no children were born until after they lost their first home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of all, it explains why God (a celestial being) had to be born into being a mortal being in order to pay the price to regain what we lost. &amp;nbsp;More than that, it explains what Jesus was talking about when He referred to the Kingdom of God (being here and now). Jesus had to reverse the original damage by becoming what Adam had become, then through the victory over death, return to what Adam was before the fall. In this manner, we were given an avenue by which to return to what we were originally created to be. In order for us to regain what was lost (entirely), this mortal body must die. Some will be mysteriously changed into that form when Jesus calls us up. Either way, this mortal body must be shed before we can again be what Adam was.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are stuck in this mortal form until the fulfillment of all things. It is ordained. In the meantime, we can learn how to operate in our true existence although restrained by mortal eyes. Our existence, as we know it, comes to us from the time of birth through the senses of the mortal body: sight, sound, feel, experiences. Until we connect with the creator, that&#39;s all we know of our existence but through Jesus, we can learn how to function even within the limitations of this mortality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we could still see the repercussions of our prayers, we might be encouraged but we can&#39;t. Because we can&#39;t, we have to simply operate through faith. &amp;nbsp;This is why there was (and is) so much emphasis on the importance of being born again. The Holy Spirit helps us to bridge that gap until we personally are transformed into our original state.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As long as Jesus walked this earth in mortal form, He Himself had to have the Holy Spirit. Only after His ascension, and He no longer had to operate with the Holy Spirit, could the Holy Spirit return to this mortal world and indwell in each and every believer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me, this has opened my eyes to what the Lord taught, concerning operating in faith. You don&#39;t have to &#39;feel&#39; it for it to be true. It&#39;s impossible for us to experience the realities and force of our words. &amp;nbsp;Believing, is the engine. Our problem is keeping that engine going. Distraction causes us to walk away from that we have spoken.</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-fall.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-538428946683972147</guid><pubDate>Tue, 19 Aug 2014 03:02:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-08-18T20:02:18.437-07:00</atom:updated><title>Daniel Unsealed - World History&#39;s Response to Biblical Prophecy</title><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;270&quot; src=&quot;//www.youtube.com/embed/7CtdGm556gM&quot; width=&quot;480&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2014/08/daniel-unsealed-world-historys-response.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-2809228346595071699</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 Aug 2014 22:22:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-08-18T15:22:29.926-07:00</atom:updated><title>End Times Warning - Mazzaroth and The Appointed Times 2014</title><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;344&quot; src=&quot;//www.youtube.com/embed/uGu-QmfNNSQ&quot; width=&quot;459&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2014/08/end-times-warning-mazzaroth-and.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-7221174189704871338</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 Aug 2014 18:10:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-08-18T11:10:43.013-07:00</atom:updated><title>Mid-East Prophecy Update – August 17th, 2014</title><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;270&quot; src=&quot;//www.youtube.com/embed/bG6xnjiM1-o&quot; width=&quot;480&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2014/08/mid-east-prophecy-update-august-17th.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-1702141151077453869</guid><pubDate>Sun, 17 Aug 2014 22:36:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-08-17T15:36:34.108-07:00</atom:updated><title>Tribulation stampeding into history</title><description>Some years ago, those of us who are watchers on the wall, were shocked to find out the Presbyterian church was allowing homosexuality in the pulpit. I think we knew then, the time was near.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then on 9/11/01, I wondered how many were standing, just as I was, staring at the TV and saying out loud &quot;It begins&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since then, we&#39;ve watched as the world (not just the U.S.) turned upside down, pushing and hating everything that reminded them of God. We&#39;ve watched while the minority ruled the majority and demands became more and more for the Christian to accept outright blasphemy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now not only do we see Israel marching head on into all out war, we have a president who is at war with us. Our southern borders melted and those in power have brought in thousands to overwhelm the system and now the introduction of Ebola, brought to our land on purpose. It should be enough to drive an unbeliever right out of their minds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days ago, I was driving home and (as I&#39;ve done a thousand times) began to cry and whimper at the Lord about how we used to have beautiful blue skies and how the powers that be have ruined it and daily poisoning us, when all of a sudden I was reminded (by Him) that I was clinging to things of this earth. Oops! Um...ashamed of myself? Oh yes. I&#39;ve straightened up my act, by the way. So our blue skies are ruined, it&#39;s time to look forward to the day they will be back as God intended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I guess it&#39;s also time for me to encourage my brethren and help them to focus on those things that really do count. When is the Lord going to call us up? We don&#39;t really know. I&#39;m banking on a pre-trib rapture but the truth is, we don&#39;t know how much of this we are going to live through.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For sure, we have brethren in the middle east who are now being beheaded, beaten, raped, dismembered because of their faith. That part has already begun in mass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What can we do from here? Especially considering we now have a government that wants this to happen, that backs the muslims, that hates the U.S. citizen, that is doing all it can to kill us. There is power in the fervent prayer of the believer. It&#39;s definitely time for us to pray for those being slaughtered and it&#39;s time for us to pray for those around us to have their eyes opened. There really is not much time left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#39;s way past time for us to draw near to the Lord and learn how to listen. The day may come, very soon, when you have to make that choice. For me, there is no question - He died for me and I&#39;m not above my master.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Do they realize how close we are to seeing Jesus again? Are they helping their members to build up their faith, preparing for that great choice coming our way?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How many, when faced with beheading, will be simply confused and wondering why they hadn&#39;t been informed, why they weren&#39;t ready for this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Are our brethren informed that the mark is that very message you see on bandanna&#39;s across the brow of those we call radical muslims? How about the tattoo on their right hand? Is our brethren informed that the choice will soon face them? And by the way, even if they jump ship and claim they will convert to muslim, they will still be killed, so they won&#39;t be saving themselves but are they informed now, so they know it won&#39;t make a difference if they (out of fear) desert Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Are our brethren informed of home invasions before dawn? Are they informed that their rights have been stripped in the U.S. ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#39;s not only coming, it&#39;s already here. Persecution of believer&#39;s is just starting and will definitely get worse so now is the time to read, read, read your Bible and build your faith.</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2014/06/churches-preparing-their-flocks.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-1716360529257978236</guid><pubDate>Mon, 30 Jun 2014 15:48:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-06-30T08:48:19.304-07:00</atom:updated><title>Christian persecution</title><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;//www.youtube.com/embed/lbPwAMZ5eXQ&quot; width=&quot;420&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2014/06/christian-persecution.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-3992940983448060528</guid><pubDate>Mon, 14 Jan 2013 12:46:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2013-01-14T04:46:16.832-08:00</atom:updated><title>Communism</title><description>Every U.S. citizen, especially the Christian, needs to watch this video.

Is America Lost?</title><description>No to both questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We humans have a tendency to take things for granted. It&#39;s our nature. If the ground has been there all along, we expect it to be there tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We tend to do the same with our Church activities. From the outside, it would seem the church is dying.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just as in family. We may squabble among ourselves but let an outsider try to harm one member and watch the whole family stand up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The same thing happens in our churches. We become lazy, skip a few Sundays, let life make us too busy. Something happens on the outside, to make us feel threatened in any way and we come flooding back into the flock.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#39;m watching the same thing happen to my country. We sat back and let those hard working left wingers take our country right down the sewer before the hair finally stood up on the back of our necks. You will see the true America in action, over the next few years, as we stand up and defend what is ours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Poor left wingers. They always think they&#39;ve won, when in actuality they&#39;ve simply shown their colors loud enough to get our attention.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#39;t think I&#39;ll worry too much that the church is dying or that our country is lost. It&#39;s just like in the world at large, while the minority will make the most noise, telling us Christians amount to maybe 2% of the population, we actually make up about half. The same in politics. They will make noise about how they are victorious. The more they slide down the scale the more noise you will hear.</description><link>https://christianity.blogspot.com/2010/07/is-church-dead-is-america-lost.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Judy)</author><thr:total>6</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503904311479204019.post-6337519688419697450</guid><pubDate>Tue, 15 Jun 2010 15:43:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-06-15T08:43:00.687-07:00</atom:updated><title>Clouds all around me</title><description>It may seem, sometimes, that the Lord is not answering your prayers. When this happens, just hang tight.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Really hard to do, I understand that. I&#39;ve been through it myself. If home is where the ill feelings are then who is bringing that into the household? If you already know and don&#39;t see a way out, lean hard on the Lord and wait on His perfect timing. It will come.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes you just aren&#39;t sure what the problem is. Is it him/her? Is it me? Until all truth is lying out on the table for all to see, you won&#39;t find out what the real problem is. This is when you lean even harder and ask the Lord to open your eyes and ears and to give you discernment in the matter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually that egg will crack and out will come the truth, exposing the underlying sickness that is poisoning your very existence. This is what you want - truth. Without it, you wander in darkness with no real answers and no direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes you&#39;re amazed at what the truth really was. Sometimes that truth hurts but better to react to the real thing, than to your own imagination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Walk in truth and you will walk in the light. Refuse to live in a house with untruth, as that kills. Nothing is worth living in such darkness.&lt;br /&gt;
