The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
Isaiah 17:1
The Day of the Lord is drawing nearer! Are you ready for it? Have you accepted the full gift of pardon in Jesus Christ that He purchased for you at the cross! He paid an awesome price to purchase your forgiveness. God is so holy that one sin--ONE SIN--will keep you from His presence. There had to be a payment for sin so that you could be forgiven. That payment for your sin required eternal blood because sin was a crime against an eternal God and the punishment for it was eternal as well. Only one man, EVER, has claimed to be both God and man in one--Jesus! Only one man's blood was of eternal origin so that it could pay for the eternal crimes against an eternal God--The blood of the LAMB, JESUS CHRIST! He also backed His claim with infallible proofs including a verified resurrection! Turn to Him and accept in prayer the forgiveness that is yours! Don't procrastinate! Don't put it off another minute! Time is so short! Turn your case God has against you over to the Divine Advocate, Jesus Christ. He is God's only anointed Lamb for sinners! There is NO OTHER WAY TO GET TO A HOLY GOD! Unless you are as perfect as Adam was before the ONE SIN marred him you have no hope without that payment of Christ for your sin!
There is an air of urgency with this request. Have you seen today's news? It is a harbinger of the fulfillment of one of the Bible's yet to be fulfilled prophecies. It is the total annihilation of Damascus, Syria when they make the fateful decision to attack God's covenant land and people--Israel! Read it for your self! The fulfillment is close. Soon there will be no more Syria! Southern Lebanon will be taken. Western Jordan will also become an Israeli possession. Egypt will be destroyed and uninhabitable for forty years. It is Soon2Come! The Great Day of the Lord is near upon all heathen!

Not only that, but a great, GREAT economic collapse is on the horizon. It will make the Great Depression look like a bump on the highway. Zephaniah saw this terrible day! Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are cut down; all they that bear silver are cut off....The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly....And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land. Zephaniah 1:11, 14, 17-18 This war and this collapse are near! Even at the door. Are you ready? ARE YOU READY! Turn now says the LORD! TURN!!!
You think a Holy God plays with sin? The Israelites thought that God would not judge their sin due to the Temple of Solomon! Yet, we know that it was torn down just as God's prophets said. God does not play with sin! He is just and must punish evil! It is just as much a part of HIS character as the love and grace of the cross! You must choose! Love or justice--it is your choice! He is judging now. Do you realize that the stock market in America was at 12,571.91 shares on July 20th and all looked well? It seemed the economy was on the rebound after the mess of 2008 (which was also related also to judgment!). That day--the 20th of July--was the day that Obama said that the military was going to be opened to the godless rebellion of homosexuality. (Again, like any sin--there is hope in Jesus for even this. But you must repent and be saved!)
That day was also the 17th of Tammuz on the Jewish Calendar--the Day Moses broke the 10 Commandments at the base of the mountain when God's people were committing gross immorality in front of the golden calf! The market is at 10,484.56 at the time of this post. That means we have had a drop of -2087.35 shares since the land espoused godlessness as a normal behavior as declared by the President. America was birthed in revival and the nation was dedicated to God by our first President George Washington. It has been cursed by the last few President's as well as the Congress and Supreme Court. God does not play with sin--He forgives it through the blood of Jesus Christ or He judges it--there is no middle ground! Turn! The coming Day of the Lord, Jacob's Trouble, the Great Tribulation is near! Turn before it is too late! Maybe you will be hidden before that Great Day of the Lord comes!
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Isaiah 55:6-7
I hear every day people saying that they have heard all their lives that the time is near and nothing has happened....yet...They don't realize that by saying that that they are fulfilling scripture ..2 Pet 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the beginning of the creation.
ReplyDeleteThey play with the fire of sin in hopes that because they say they believe that God will wink at their disobedience and forgive them anyway, even though they won't repent and don't want to repent and do what is right.
2 peter 3:5 says, For this they willingly are ignorant
2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;

ReplyDeleteHi John,
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to leave you a comment and every time I tried,when I would press the post button it would just vanish!Into thin air!I have no clue why.
I think that the time is later than we all imagine. The time for getting saved is NOW! The time to fear God is NOW! God has been patient a long time,and that won't last forever, especially as men have become bolder and bolder and more obnoxious in their sins.
Even the gospel message itself is being changed so that later they might think they are saved, but they won't be, not being brought in by truth.
There is a man in Austrailia a Pastor, just a normal christian pastor who has written a book explaining to everyone that Jesus wasn't God and that he can prove it from the original texts.
He said that Jesus was a good man but not God, And then the christian host, doing the radio show agreed with him!!I couldn't believe my ears and now he wants to write a follow up book because the response was so favorable!Whats wrong with christians these days? Every body is writing a book!They are being deceived left and right. They have the Bible but they are coming to the wrong conclusions.They compare the Bible to their books and their own ideas. We are living in the weirdest times and we can bet that they are going to be getting even weirder.
Keep preaching the truth John. I love the fire thats in you. You are a bright and shining light in a dark world, who knows how many lives were touched because of your bold witness.We are going to be more and more in the minority who stand firm on the truth and will not compromise to please men.
Thanks again for praying for my husband.
The Lord bless you John, you and yours.
Now let's see if this will post.
In the name of Jesus Christ this Will post!
