Las Vegas

Terrifying Mass Murder in Las Vegas. “Pure evil?” But, “God is in control!” Is that so? Then, why did he not take action to avoid the killing of 58 people and the wounding of 527? Among 22,000 spectators at a musical show in Las Vegas, scenes of blood, screams of pain and horror, of hundreds of dead and wounded, of desperately running this way and that to escape from the bullets, or of valiantly remaining on the site to help victims. Minds without God: Stephen Paddock, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse-Tung, Pol Pot. Why does not God annihilate such evil ones before they act? Various reasons identified and analyzed. God has absolute control over his plan for humanity and the material universe. That plan includes ceding Satan and his agents on earth certain powers and allowing him to exercise them for specific purposes and limited times. Why? The suffering and premature death of innocents. Is God near people who vehemently reject him? Present on battle fields and places like Las Vegas? In the casinos of Las Vegas? How to have God not only near but also within. Secure and saved eternally! How to assure such an outcome.

INNOCENT people died in Las Vegas! How horrible!” Context of their “innocence.” Personal innocence in the moral-spiritual context. The danger of calling innocent that which is not, or the person who is not. Are these innocent? Your evaluation of eleven examples. Human beings are very quick to publish their judgment of “innocent” or “guilty.” God is the only one with the innate right to establish criteria for innocence and make definitive judgments. The only truly innocent One. The status of babies, infants, preadolescent children, and adolescents. The status of good and just people who do not know God and his gospel. The status of those who, not knowing the true God and his law, do by nature what the law commands. The significance and application of The Lord knows those who are his. The case of the good who die prematurely. Their status after death. Reactions of family, friends, etc., who remain on the earth determined by their faith, or lack of it. Purpose of resurrections from the dead by Christ and his apostles. Is that you in the midst of that multitude? Does God recognize you there as one of his? Are you spiritually prepared to die there at any moment? Confident you soul-spirit would go to God’s Paradise?

Last day of time

The LAST DAY of TIME. Going out into the FUTURE and looking back at planet Earth in the 20th and 21st centuries. Composite image, followed by a text highlighting the benefits of transporting oneself, mentally and spiritually, to places and times of the past and the future. The author says: “I invite you to accompany me to an observation platform set up for us on the LAST DAY of TIME, with the purpose of identifying and analyzing Events and currents in the Earth of the 20th and 21st centuries.” The significance of the Seventh Angel near the platform, with his Seventh Trumpet. A fictitious scenario or future reality? Regarding prophetical projections: “Be careful, beloved friend, to not ridicule and reject prematurely, before obtaining the knowledge necessary for sound, wise judgements!” Of times and periods. How much time transpires between where we are in the 21st century and the very Last Day of Time? Can human beings lengthen or shorten it? The factors of mind set, attitudes and actions; rebellious incredulity or informed, positive convictions.

Leopard. Revelation 13.

The First Beast of Revelation 13. He has seven heads, ten horns and a blasphemous name. Act 1, Scene 1, of the Fearful Drama of Two Great Apocalyptic Beasts. The first beast comes up out of the sea. Meaning of “sea.” Daniel sees four beasts rising out of the sea. Identity of the seven heads of the first beast. They are “seven mountains.”They are “seven kings.” Solid reasons for saying they are not the seven hills of Rome, seven Roman emperors or seven forms of Roman government, but seven earthly kingdoms. One of the seven heads-mountains-kings was “mortally wounded.” Rome was built on seven hills or mounds, and not on real mountains. “Mountain” signifies “kingdom” in prophetical language. The “ten horns” are “ten kings,” and these “ten kings” are ten earthly kingdoms. So are the “seven kings… mountains… heads.” They are not contemporary. The four heads of the leopard-beast seen by Daniel are four kingdoms “different” one from the other and appear in sequence. Six of the seven kings-mountains-heads identified. Examples of blasphemous names taken by rulers of Egypt, Babylon and Rome. The first beast is “like a leopard,” with feet like a bear and the mouth of a lion. The “great, fiery red dragon” has seven heads and ten horns. He gives his power, throne and authority to the first beast. Who authorized him to do it, and why?

Let there be light for those in darkness. Film by Kevin and Sam Sorbo.

Our culture is experiencing a hostile takeover. We must stop rejecting God if we ever want it to end. Article by Sam Sorbo that analyzes succinctly today’s all-out war by peoples who hate God and Christianity to overthrow the Judeo-Christian ethic, eliminate God and suppress all religion, substituting for them Darwinian evolution, the You Only Live Once dictum, integral intolerance against conservatives, the elevation of feelings above truth; position, power and auto gratification above the correct, decent, right, etc. Reasons and concerns that motivated Kevin and Sam Sorbo to produce the film Let there be LIGHT for those who are in darkness.

Light and darkness

PowerPoint

Children of Light, Let Us Keep the Darkness at Bay! Analysis of Ephesians 5:1-14. Ten slides prepared in PowerPoint. Standard size slides (4:3). For a sermon, conference or classes. God, Christ, the Holy Spirit and the divine Word are all light. Born of them, true Christians are children of light. Made up of them, the church true to the Lord is also to be light in the darkness of incredulity and immorality in the world. The church represented as a fantastic Spiritual Space Ship of Light. Its occupants to take care their Ship does not slip from its orbit in celestial places, falling into darkness. Shameful things of darkness not even to be mentioned among the children of light. These things identified as fornication, uncleanness, filthiness, covetousness, course jesting and foolish talking. These things defined. Shameful to speak of them, but multitudes do, even with shameless pride. Because of such things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Preachers, teachers and all Christians to surround themselves with the Protective Crystal Sphere of an Incorruptible Faith as they move among the children of disobedience with the purpose of lighting up minds and souls filled with darkness. Messages from the Owners of the Spiritual Space Ship for those in darkness. Transported from the power of darkness to the Kingdom of light. All these teachings illustrated with impressive graphics.

Little horn in prophecy and fulfillment.

The SIGN of the SEVENTH KING-KINGDOM-BEAST. Astonishing SIGN for modern times! Do you perhaps not have any knowledge of it? SEVEN KINGS-KINGDOMS-BEASTS. Five have fallen; one is, and the other has not yet come. The “OTHER” is the SEVENTH. “The seven heads... are… seven kings. Five of whom have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he comes he must remain only a little while.” Revelation 17:9-10. When does the Seventh King make his entry on the world stage? When did the Roman Empire really end? History perverted and the errors propagated by preachers, teachers and writers. Edward Gibbons, Will Durant and others testify. Relevant historical facts highlighted. The myth of a “Byzantine Empire.” The healing of the wound that seemed to be mortal and its significance for determining the end of the Roman Empire. The nature of the Seventh King-Kingdom-Beast. “…when he comes he must remain only a little while.”  The identity of the Seventh King. How the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics fills precisely the parameters of the prophecy-sign of the Seventh King. A prophecy fulfilled 1,827 years after it was proclaimed! Be on guard, citizens of the world, for the SIGN of the EIGHTH KING-KINGDOM-BEAST! This one GOES to PERDITION! He is the last! He is also known prophetically as the “the LITTLE HORN.”

Love

Can you tell me what love is? Truly, I want to know. Youth, Roman Catholic priests, Pentecostals and evolutionists give unsatisfactory answers. The author presents his credentials. Then, offers what he trusts will be a reasonable, consistent and encompassing answer, though not exhaustive. Bad loves. Good loves. Who to love. What to love. How to love with all your strength. Positive actions define love. So do attributes. What love sustains beyond the death of the physical body? What love never ends? How does your love compare?

 

What are the healthy, good kinds of love? Would you have the necessary credentials to identify and define them correctly? The God of love identifies and defines at least twelve healthy, pure types of love. These are presented, with relevant Bible texts. What it means to love “with all your strength.” Positive actions define healthy, pure love. Also, attributes assigned to love by the God of love. Four beautiful abstracts illustrate this article.

Lucado, Max

Terrifying Mass Murder in Las Vegas. “Pure evil?” But, “God is in control," says Max Lucado. Is that so? Then, why did he not take action to avoid the killing of 58 people and the wounding of 527? Among 22,000 spectators at a musical show in Las Vegas, scenes of blood, screams of pain and horror, of hundreds of dead and wounded, of desperately running this way and that to escape from the bullets, or of valiantly remaining on the site to help victims. Minds without God: Stephen Paddock, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse-Tung, Pol Pot. Why does not God annihilate such evil ones before they act? Various reasons identified and analyzed.

That plan includes ceding Satan and his agents on earth certain powers and allowing him to exercise them for specific purposes and limited times. Why? The suffering and premature death of innocents. Is God near people who vehemently reject him? Present on battle fields and places like Las Vegas? In the casinos of Las Vegas? How to have God not only near but also within. Secure and saved eternally! How to assure such an outcome.

Lucifer. Satan, Devil, Serpent of Old, Fiery Red Dragon

The tense flight of Starman to the First Orbit. The obligatory flight of the Soul-Spirit to the Frist Landing. Part 2 of the series: Flight of the Falcon Heavy; Flight of the Soul-Spirit. An analogy. Adaptable for classes, conferences or sermons. Ample text, with numerous points and applications. Includes an image (slide) in JPEG, with annotations on the sequence of graphics and texts. The Tesla car is the lustrous vehicle that Starman rides into space. Analogously, the physical body is the terrestrial vehicle by means of which the Soul-Spirit transports and manifest itself in the material world. Both perish in the material universe. Neither Starman nor a great number of human beings discern clearly the extremely important differences between their own natures and that of their respective vehicles. Some of these are pointed out and contrasted in this Analogy. Many humans conceive of themselves as animals, nothing more. The vision of Elon Musk and SpaceX goes far beyond just taking cargos into space. Space tourism. Colonization of planet Mars. God planned Earth to be humankind’s habitat. Does the obsession of some to leave Earth and establish outposts on other worlds contravene the plan and purpose of the Creator for humans? The ANGELS were assigned their own domain. Lucifer and his compatriots left it, with disastrous consequences. Judgement after death. Angels minister to those who inherit eternal life. Every Soul-Spirit has to ascend to the First Celestial Landing. Don’t PANIC! Every hour, 6,392 Souls-Spirits ascend to the First Landing. What happens there? Is your name listed in the Book of Life?
