A Brief Summary of the End of the Age.

                     


Jesus said that the generation that sees the rebirth of Israel will witness the end of the age. Matthew 24:32 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out ( Rebirth of Israel), you know that summer is near. Israel became a nation once more in 1948, a biblical generation is considered 70 years and by strength 80 years. So we could say that any time between 1948 and 2028 the end of the age is to happen. Here we are though in 2013 now this only leaves us with a 15 year time period. I believe the evidence is saying that things are about to unfold.  Jesus said-Matt 24:21-22 ‘For then there will be great distress, unequalled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

In this video Mark Biltz talks about rare Blood Red Moons on Jewish Feast Days which have marked  1) The rebirth of Israel.   
2) 1967-68 the recapture of Jerusalem. 3) The next are in 2014-2015 Jubilee year proclaimed. These are the first in over 600 years there are no others like this for hundreds of years. I believe these are some of the heavenly signs Jesus spoke of.




Now some  of the evidence seems to over lap I don't know anyone who can see the whole picture perfectly. Some researchers say that things culminate in 2015-2016 the last remaining years being the Great Tribulation. Matt 24:21-22 ‘For then there will be great distress, unequalled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again. Some say 2014-2015 is the middle of the Tribulation and others that the Tribulation starts around 2014-2015. Either way most end time researchers considering Daniel's prophecy see a 7 year Tribulation period. Which could start any time. It is time to prepare ourselves as a Bride and watch for His coming for us. After the engagement the Jewish custom for the Bride was to set herself apart from the world in preparation for your wedding. Jesus said we would not know the hour. But He said if we are watching we will know the season. Mark 32:39 So you also, when you see these things happening, know that it is near—at the doors! The Jewish bride wasn't to know what hour her Groom was to come, but she had an idea, traditionally being 6-12 months. So she watched.

Luke 21:36
Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

This could be John of Revelations Mid Tribulation sign in the Heavens in 2017 this would give us the beginning of tribulations 2013-14


We are about to witness the closing of the age. Jesus Our Lord and Saviour with all the saints and Angelic host of heaven await with excitement of our home coming. We should be excited too.
My love to all in Christ

Luke 21:36
Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”


Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.

Revelation 3:10

Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

Revelation 3:8

I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. 
 1 Thessalonians 4:16
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.

1 Thessalonians 5
But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labour pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 

The Evidence Points To.....
There is a multitude of evidence that these things are upon us. You can find some on this site, and I will continue to post more in the coming weeks. I will also post high watch dates, March-April is one many are looking at. Israel-Obama peace talks, Damascus, New Pope, Passover, world wide tensions between many nuclear armed countries. Asteroids, earthquakes. New World Order take over in full swing.


                            How do I receive Eternal Life.

The Bible speaks of a Day of Judgment,

It tells us to flee from the wrath to come. I believe that day is fast approaching. The Word of God says that today is the day of salvation. We don't know what tomorrow may bring. We may find ourselves standing before God before we know it.

Without Gods forgiveness and His pardon through Jesus Christ we will stand naked before God with all our sins. Found in such a state, God being a just God, will have no choice but to judge you according to the full weight of the law. The Wrath of God will also be displayed in the day of His Judgement upon all those on the Earth. On that day if you are not found in Christ, made one of His, God will see you as a rebel and you will be judged along with all those who appose God and His divine authority. You can only be in one of two Kingdoms, the one of Gods or the one of Satan's. Choose today who you will serve.

Before the Great Tribulation spoken of in Revelations starts in full, God has made a way of escape for His people. 

1 Thessalonians 4:16
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.

If you are not part of those who are caught up (raptured) you will have to endure the Great Tribulation it will be a time of severe testing. Read Revelations, with out Gods help few will survive. People will be forced by the Anti-Christ to receive the mark of the Beast read Revelations 13:16. Those who refuse will be beheaded. Many will become Christians in this period and many of those will die for their faith.

What must I do...


The Bible says, that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

These are not words to be spoken lightly. You must have an repented heart, truly sorry of your rebelliousness toward God. Repented of your own self-righteousness. Of contrite spirit and broken hearted, before God.

If you believe God has bought you from darkness into His Glorious light, that you have been Born Again into Gods Kingdom (read John 3:7)
I greet you with a warm welcome, I encourage you to find other Bible believing Born Again Christians to fellowship with and read His Word the Bible.

God Bless You

Laws That Govern Us and the Universe
Rom 1:19-20. Since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

You, me our children, all things, where made for a reason and for a purpose, deep inside we know this, and why we tell our children like, can we really look upon a new born child and say there is no God. We are without excuse.

Through out the Universe we see Gods workings in the laws which govern it, all the stars, planets and moons, indeed every celestial body go about their courses in accordance to the laws of gravity and maybe some dynamic laws we know nothing or little about. We also see a law of sowing and reaping, Be not deceived; (Gal 6:7 God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap) we see this in our environment if we disrupt this harmony (break these laws) which governs our physical world we reap many harmful side effects, we have become in debt to these laws.

Like the laws that govern our physical world, so are there laws which govern our moral and ethical world, we know intrinsically that we should not murder, steal, commit adultery, bare false witness, lie, etc The bible says even though we may not have been raised in these laws we do by nature the things contained in the law, these show the work of the law written on our hearts, our conscience also bearing witness to the fact. Rom 1:14-16.

Our Standards vs Gods
We often judge ourselves, our actions, our behaviour, what we say, and how we live etc. by our own standards. Often when we use our own standards to measure ourselves we look pretty good, especially when we compare ourselves with others, like Adolph Hitler and other murderers, rapists, bank robbers etc, I use to do the same, and wrongly still do quiet often, if we are honest with ourselves you would say the same like wise. To see ourselves in true light we must examine ourselves by Gods perfect law, which is not tainted or prejudice like our standards.

This little story illustrates this for us; a little girl remarked to her mother how clean some sheep looked against the green grass. Then, as snow began to fall, this same girl noticed how dirty the sheep looked against the white snow. The background made all the difference.

If you and I judge ourselves using the background of human standards, we come up quite clean. We can find plenty of people who are worst than us. The average person as said before looks almost pure compared to an Adolph Hitler. God however will not judge us using human standards, but by the absolute standard of His Law, the Ten Commandments.

Until the snow fell, the little girl did not know what real purity was.

If we are honest with ourselves we will acknowledge that we have broken at least some of Gods Laws if not by deed then by thought, we see the out workings of this and the consequences it produces in our lives and through out the world. The order of the universe shows us that if we break a law we are in debt to it, to say otherwise would be to live in denial.

Debt Free
How do we restore this harmony become debt free to the law? You may try to be a better person pray, fast, meditate, go to church feed the poor, but still be in debt, these things can be commendable but often only leads us to self righteousness (I’m not as bad as so and so because I do, or I’ve done, or I don’t do. Every person, you, me whether priest, monk, saint, butcher or baker the whole of humanity are in the very same predicament bankrupt and in debt to the law.

What must we do? How can we receive payment for our debts? We all have to go to the same person, one who is debt free, one who can and has paid our debts in full, one who can stand in your place, one who never broke the law on your behalf, one who lived perfectly by the law on your behalf, one who was able to place your debts upon himself and pay the ultimate price death itself on your behalf, putting to death your debts by his life and death, fulfilling Gods Laws, His universal and just requirements.

When we go to the philosopher and all the other religions of the world and ask what must I do to find peace with God they will tell you to do this, do that and the other, true religion that is found in the pages of the bible says it is done, Jesus has done it, on our behalf, before the law we are found guilty, sentenced and held captive, Jesus pays our ransom price to set us free by the payment of His life (living his life 100% obedient to the law on our behalf) By His death ( shedding his blood for our debts dying the death we deserved) By His resurrection from the dead for us( For He had no sin. The law and death had no legal hold over him. And now we can with Him be raised to new life, all our debts passed, present and future having been paid for, and now settled, we are no longer under the law and in debt, but under the law of Grace.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. You must turn your faith and trust in yourself to try to get right standing with God, which only leads to self righteousness, and put your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, and what he has done, to give us right standing and peace before God and His just and perfect law.

By grace you are saved (forgiven, saved from eternal death) by faith; and that not of yourself (not based on anything you have done), lest anyone should boast, it is the free gift from God.

The Gospel
”Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” (John 5:24)

Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man can come to the Father except by Him (John 14:6.) His gospel of salvation is so simple that even children understand it, and Jesus said that we have to become as little children in order to enter the Kingdom of heaven (Matthew 18:3.) If you call on the name of Jesus, believing that He was raised from the dead, and confess with your mouth that He is Lord, you shall be saved (Romans 10:9-13.) It is His promise that if you call on Him, He will be faithful and just to forgive you of your sins (1 John 1:9) and to keep you in His care until He comes again.
