Are You Listening, Yet?Society as we know it in America and throughout the free world is in lockdown. After centuries of civilization advance we are still confronted with an ageless fundamental problem; that man is by nature, a sinner. Man’s curse continues to outshine his glory and he cannot do anything about it. The dog has returned to his vomit, and the pig to his mire! The leopard cannot change his spots!
The fact that we cannot really better ourselves by ourselves is waiting behind every new gadget we come up with. Depraved man at his peak performance has discovered once again that he is destined to utterly fail; yet he continues in defiance of His Creator. Even our modern Twentieth Century institutions are lining up to either collapse or take on the shape of a New World Order – another attempt at fixing what cannot be repaired. World governments, their economies and religions are all reeling with a kind of stunned drunkenness, wringing their hands and wiping their brow in fear of what to do next. It has become all too common to hear world leaders say, “We have never been here before, and we do not know where we are going.” Whereas only a few decades ago there would have been a reasonable possibility for recovery from such a crisis, that possibility no longer exists. World order dynamics have changed drastically. The United States of America no longer enjoys carte blanche in the world. China and India are no longer just knocking on the door. They have actually come into the room – along with the ideology of Islam and the whole Arab world mindset. At the same time that great Bear is quickly rising again, already teamed with Persia (Iran) to do God’s bidding. The “hook” is securely fashioned in their jaws and there is no stopping to them until Jesus Christ wields His sword Himself! We are in a clash of civilizations that cannot be avoided. It must be confronted, and it will not be pretty. The American way of life as we have known it cannot be sustained. What has been only small steps away from normalcy are about to become giant leaps. There is nowhere to go from here but backwards. We are destined to be ruled by tyrants. It is only a matter of a brief moment in time – our time – that the greatest civilization transformation ever, will take place. It will not wait for our grandchildren to grow up. It is here now! We are about to actually feel the effects of what has already begun – free-fall back to the ground from which we came! We are at the end of the New Covenant church age. The same God who established the heavens and the earth is folding them up, and those who call themselves by His name are NOT ready! I have faithfully screamed this to the top of my voice for nearly fifteen years; and not because I heard someone else doing it! I have seen visions and dreamed dreams that the Lord has given. He has whispered into my ear, and I have shouted from the housetops what the Bible makes abundantly clear to all – REPENT OR PERISH! God wants us to become like Him, far beyond the understanding of either traditional or modern Christian thinking. In defiance of many who claim to be Christian and to the rejoicing of a few, I have cried aloud that through the collapse of the world, God would test His own people in preparation for His Son's soon return. I have quoted scripture after scripture time and again to those of God’s own house, and to the chagrin of the majority of them; and through most of that time we have struggled greatly just to keep going. There have been a precious few with eyes to see and ears to hear, however, and that remnant has helped to sustain us. I praise God immensely for those who have stood with us in prayer and financial support along the way. Please continue to do so for the battle has just begun. And dear brothers and sisters, I am not speaking of a battle out there somewhere! The battle we fight is in His very own house! In Jeremiah’s day the people swore that they would find safety in His house saying, “The temple of the Lord! The temple of the Lord! The temple of the Lord is here!” (Jeremiah 7:4) But it was because of what went on in that same temple that they were destroyed along with it! So it is today! Not even those who live in caves are exempt from a kind of spiritual warfare that comes only at the end of an age – and especially those who call themselves by His name! Yes! The final judgment that God has prepared for His own house is well under way even though to most it is unseen. That is because the greatest judgment is when God Himself gives a spirit of deception to many who call themselves by His name! (II Thess. 2:11) If you are deceived, you cannot see the truth! What could be a sentence in this life that would be worse than spiritual blindness? We continue forward, however. You please continue to support us prayerfully and financially as the Spirit of the Lord prompts you. The whole world around us is crumbling and only those who are prepared in Spirit and in Truth will stand. Help us shout from the housetops, please. The central theme of our message has never changed - that we are to become the fullness of Jesus Christ and everything going on around us is to that end. It is that through the finished work of Jesus Christ on earth, and the continuing work of His Spirit and Word, that we are to be shaped into His image – even the full measure of His stature. Even though this truth is abundantly clear throughout the Bible, I have found through many years of teaching that it is as foreign to the average church as Korean currency is to the average Mississippi garage sale. We plan to publish our first book in on this subject in January, combining a number of Bible studies that I have taught for years, together with fresh insight on becoming His fullness. It IS the message of the hour today - the only place of safety for the people of God - members of His body as He plants us together; and it is completely different than what we experience today. We really would appreciate your support of us as we press into getting this all-important project completed over the coming weeks. May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, be praised.
