Yeah, fear is Satan's weapon against us. He wants us to fear everything and everyone - except God of course! Good posts!
Have you tried just taping the batteries in with a piece of duct tape? We've done that before lol

Praying for you. I am SO ready to go home. Ready to be rid of the darkness of this world. I think we all are Oliver. I can't imagine anyone who's saved not wanting Jesus to come get us now. My neighbor asked me to do a Bible study with her about these end times and all that will happen up through the Millennial Kingdom. We started it yesterday. I think the way she describes what's happened here in the US and the rest of the world since the first day of "covid" is very, very accurate. She said it's like you are in the world as usual and everything is normal. You go to bed and wake up the next day and it's like you woke up in a parallel world! Everything is so different and all these huge changes (all of which are evil) took place in less than two years! As soon as she said that, it reminded me of that TV show called The Twilight Zone!
Yes ready to go. Monday Monday At Michael's site he is switching over from using a website to have it run off of an app. though difficult to do he said he did that work by himself, he is in poor health and looking for someone to take over for him, he reaches worldwide now and has many chats and worked it out so that a person for example in Germany wrote in chat German language others in their own county would read that chat in their own language and the same for example if chat typed in English others would read it in their language and not English so everyone can chat worldwide. Angela started the site with Michael but now has her own site and a prison ministry, she is in poor health right now, waiting for test results and has said she will get healed with a good testimony or progress and pass on, I think they are checking her for lung cancer. I need to sign in new to Michael's site and have not done that yet, my phone does not have an unlimited time plan, most people use their phones and not their computer. I noticed also people at chat can log into skype with each other, that is new to me, I think most the people who do that are younger than me and accept the changes easier than I do. I have seen Ron use skype before and he is not much younger than me.lol I've used Skype and Zoom, a couple of times each but don't really care for them like the younger generation does. I don't know why...it's just another way to talk, like you would on the phone, only the people can see you. But then I'd rather actually be with the person and to talk to them. In a way they both seem a little like they're invading my privacy, even though I have to sign in to the app to use it. I guess it's my age like you said. Me too I know my bay area relatives are sick of tired of conspitacy theories on Paul Peolsi attack they hating Republicans and Evangical Christians right now we are not enemies folks it far right that is enemy who spread Anti Semtric tropes like who you know Kanye West I talking about Kayne honey LOL! Well yesterday my church has Fall festival I was pigging out they have egg rolls and tamales and pumpkin bread and other Halloween stuff so that reason I wasn't online yesterday after church I pass out on food coma I bought the food home watch football It's sad that we so often forget that other people aren't our enemy, and that our real enemy is Satan. I can't even imagine eating all those foods at the same sitting, as they're so different! But it sounds like you enjoyed yourself, and that's great! Get this my brother don't remember that storm he doesn't remember that he slept on GW Bedspread that anquite white he said that so lame he block out on his memory LOL! he don't remember this one street near jr high school got flooded like river they force us students not attended the school for week back in December 82 they start it christmas vacation early he don't remember that He ask me HEY DORK why you are home I told him my school is flooded that pretty scary that closest thing of disaster that I ever experiecnce including Snowstorm in Fairbanks Ak that I could't leave the house for two days when I was living there that different story all together my brother want be alone in the house That would be scary! How old were you when that happened? Name calling doesn't bother me I try not to laugh so I don't provoke a person feel anger towards me, I think it mostly happens to a person when they are young, maybe people know it does not bother an adult. I have to stop and get background christmas music playing so I don't hear the guy Ron is listening to, he continually predicts the day of the rapture and get emotional when the day comes and he well prepared to call out the next day, I don't know how he listens to that guy. Watched a good old movie last night, My son, my son. Now I am going to watch an old movie with Cary Grant, always tried to avoid his movies, never cared to watch that actor but I think I will because I have never seen the movie before. I can't understand why people try and date the time of the rapture. If God wanted us to know He would have told us. I guess it's just part of the sin nature, like everything else.
I hardly ever get angry, and even when I do I don't yell or anything...at least that was true for the last 25-30 years until a month or two ago. I got angry with someone that was hurting my son and yelled at the top of my lungs at them. I think I was more surprised then they were by it. I'm positive too that I felt a whole lot worse about how I acted then they did. They were used to doing that themselves and me yelling didn't seem to bother them at all. It sure bothered me though! I cried and cried asking the Lord to forgive me and not to allow me to dishonor Him again. I was totally mortified by what I'd done and still can't figure out why/how it happened as it's so against my nature.
I hope you all have a great day in the Lord today!

I'm not sure it would be accurate to say that they literally chose death. Mainly because Eve was deceived and didn't sin directly like Adam did. God didn't tell her not to eat the fruit from that tree, He told Adam and Adam told her. It would be true about Adam because he knew exactly what he was doing when he went along with Eve. But the Bible tells us that Eve chose to eat the fruit for three reasons, and there's no mention of death here: “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.” (Genesis 3:6) To me that's typical of Satan, to get your focus off the negative consequences of your sin and put them on something you want instead. Eve did tell Satan that God had said that if they ate that fruit they'd die, but then Satan convinced her that wasn't true. Since it was Adam that told her about it and not God Himself, she was easily convinced of that lie. I could be wrong, but I don't see it being true of Eve, only of Adam. He quite literally chose Eve over God, lies over truth, darkness over light, and death over life. Just like we often do as well.

I got a good laugh at your story about the dogs Marlene! Thanks!
I found out that I can use the stuff the doctor prescribed and it doesn't show on my hair, but it's pointless because even it doesn't stop the itching or even lessen it. I'll have to call him on Monday and see if they have anything else I can try. At least my head isn't bleeding anymore. The doctor didn't give me any instructions before I left, so I assumed I could do whatever I normally did. I went shopping and was fine; came home, ate dinner and cleaned up afterward and was fine. Then went to look at some photos and started bleeding like a stuck pig. There was blood everywhere! We thought we got it stopped, but about a half hour later it started again. We did finally get it stopped after that and I went to bed. I intend to let them know that they need to warn their patients about that from now on.
How's everyone else doing? I hope you're all well and ready to go to our real Home. I don't think we'll be here that much longer!
Here's the latest prophecy article. It's a must read! fresh-hope.com/thread/7568/day-reckoning

By Daymond Duck, Published on: October 29, 2022
On Oct. 22, 2022, Retired Army Gen. Michael Flynn posted a Telegram message that said the Nov. 8, 2022, mid-term elections will be a day of reckoning for the Washington insiders.
I have great respect for Gen. Flynn (and I can’t predict the outcome of the mid-term elections), but I can predict beyond a shadow of a doubt that a day of reckoning is coming upon the Washington insiders that are determined to establish a New World Order that ignores Jesus and the Scriptures.
Jesus was prophesying about the end of the age when He said, “Then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Matt. 24:21).
“Great tribulation” speaks of planet Earth’s darkest hour.
The New World Order is not taking the world toward a new era of peace and cooperation.
The New World Order is plunging the world toward 7 years of globalism, distress of nations, worldwide conflict, famine, pestilence, and death.
The four horsemen of the apocalypse appear to be bridled, saddled, and pawing at the ground.
It is just a matter of time before Jesus raptures His Church, and the unparalleled judgment of God falls upon planet Earth because world leaders are trying to create their own God to rule in a doomed-to-fail Build Back Better program.
After 7 years of Build Back Better nonsense, death and destruction, Jesus will come back, be anointed King of kings and Lord of lords, and take His rightful place on the throne of David in Jerusalem.
With King Jesus on the throne, the soon-to-be day of reckoning will be followed by 1,000 years of peace, justice, and righteousness on earth.
Below are some reasons to believe that day of reckoning is close.
One, concerning reprobate minds: on Oct. 19, 2020, it was reported that the U.S. State Dept. gave $20,600 to a cultural center in Ecuador to fund 12 Drag Queen shows, 3 gay workshops, and a short documentary.
Think about it, America’s national debt now exceeds $31 trillion, inflation is higher than it has been in about 40 years, America is running low on weapons for its military, America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserves are low, the lines at food banks are increasing, several major cities could soon run out of water next year, etc., and Biden’s State Dept. is funding Drag Queen shows, workshops, and a documentary in Ecuador.
Two, concerning inflation and the decline of America: around Oct. 19, 2022, Brian Deese (Biden’s National Economic Council Director) said U.S. diesel inventories are unacceptably low and all options are on the table.
This is because America’s diesel inventory is now down to about 3 weeks’ supply, diesel is used in trucks, trains, ships, farm tractors, construction equipment, military equipment, etc., and America has very little refining capacity.
The average price of diesel is now more than $5 per gallon and expected to surge.
Surging diesel prices will cause the price of everything that is moved on trucks, trains, ships, etc., to surge.
It will also cause everything that is produced on farms to surge.
According to the article, people have known this was shaping up for weeks, and the Biden administration has expressed great concern but done practically nothing to solve the problem (they may have been busy with the funding of Drag Queen shows in Ecuador).
Biden has been draining America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserves, but that does nothing to increase America’s diesel inventories.
Three, concerning the decline of America: on Oct. 17, 2022, The Washington Post reported that it has uncovered evidence that U.S. companies funded by the Pentagon have sold hypersonic missile technology to China more than 300 times since 2019.
Most (perhaps all) of the sales were handled through intermediaries, the sales are illegal, the companies are claiming they didn’t know their intermediaries were selling the technology to China, but they are required to know what their intermediaries are doing with the technology.
Anyway, it appears that the law has been broken more than 300 times since 2019, China’s development of hypersonic missiles is a threat to the U.S., and there is not one word about anyone being prosecuted for selling these U.S. military secrets.
Four, concerning world government: on Oct. 21, 2022, The Expose posted an article about the UN “Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.”
It was a long article, but here are a few important points in my words:
“Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” is a codename for a UN master plan to change the political and economic system of the world. The governments of 193 nations in the UN and people in 1,000 of the world’s largest corporations that support the World Economic Forum (WEF) have formed a partnership to implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. None of the people in the large corporations have been elected, but the purpose of the Agenda for Sustainable Development is to control every aspect of every individual’s life. The Sustainable Development Goals reflect what these rich elitists want, and they are being pushed upon the whole world without the approval of individual citizens. The goals are being pushed upon society a little bit at a time, but ultimately everyone will be dependent upon a world government for their food, water, energy, shelter, medical care, and everything else, which is how these rich elitists intend to keep people under control. (FYI: Satan has a strong grip on the West. Prime Min. Trudeau of Canada, Pres. Macron of France, King Charles III of the UK, and Prime Min. Rishi Sunak of Britain are all tied to the World Economic Forum, and Pres. Biden of the U.S. has long supported the New World Order. The citizens of these nations have been betrayed from within, and a world government is well on its way.)
Five, concerning natural disasters: this writer lives close to the Mississippi River.
On Oct. 21, 2022, a long-time farmer and fellow Church member (a reliable source, but not an official source) told me there are hundreds of barges stranded on the Mississippi River near Hickman, Ky.
The water level is low, barges were getting stranded, and the National Guard closed part of the river for dredging.
The idled barges are costing owners thousands of dollars a day.
Shipping costs that were about $25 per ton are now about $90 per ton.
Further south, some barges are moving, but they can only carry a partial load, or they will get stranded.
Farmers are harvesting their beans now, and the fact that some barges are stranded near Hickman, Ky., and other barges farther south can only carry a partial load means there is a shortage of barges. (The barges that can move have to make more than one trip to carry the usual amount of beans to Gulf Coast terminals near New Orleans.)
The cost of everything that uses Soybeans is going to soar.
Six, concerning reprobate minds, departing from the faith, etc.: on Oct. 22, 2022, Dean Dwyer wrote in Harbingers Daily that a pastor in Australia told his church:
“As today we look back at the brutality of concentration camps and racially inspired violence, so future generations will look back at our day with disgust at the brutality taking place in our clinics: legalized, state-sponsored execution.“ “Lust is a sin, sex outside of marriage is a sin, practicing homosexuality is a sin….“
In a later interview, the leader of Australia’s opposition party said: “The views that have been expressed by a pastor at this church in relation to gay people, or to the issue of abortion – they’re an abomination, and I condemn those points that have been made by that particular pastor.” This political leader (who claims to be a Christian) condemned the teachings of the Bible on abortion and homosexuality, and he called them an abomination. I am not his judge, but I believe his day of reckoning is right around the corner.
Seven, concerning the signs of His Second Coming, Jesus said, “There shall arise false Christs, and false prophets” (Matt. 24:24-26), and indeed, many false Messiahs have risen in Israel in recent years.
Christians that study Bible prophecy know that the Jews will eventually accept a false Messiah (called the Antichrist), he will eventually defile their rebuilt temple, they will realize they made a mistake, their blinding will cease, and they will accept Jesus as their true Messiah (Jn. 5:43; Matt. 24:15; Zech. 12:10-14).
Now we read that a group of Jewish rabbis are saying it is prophesied that the Messiah would appear in the first year after a Shemitah cycle (a 7-year cycle; the Jews could plant crops and let the land rest every 7 years called a Shemitah cycle).
They say the last Shemitah cycle ended at sundown on Sept. 26, Israel is in a new Shemitah cycle, this is the first year of a new cycle, and the Messiah has appeared.
Their claimed Messiah’s name is Yanuka Rav Shlomo Yehuda Ben David (Jesus was a descendant of David). Rav Shlomo is the one Jews have been waiting on for 3,000 years. Rav Shlomo is 33 years old (Jesus died when He was about 33 years old). Rav Shlomo has memorized the entire Torah (the first 5 books of the Bible) with total comprehension, and no one else has ever done that. Some religious Jews call Rav Shlomo the living Torah (Jesus was the living Word of God). Some say he is appearing as a man but is really an angel (Jesus came as a man, but He was also God in the flesh). There is nothing Rav Shlomo does not know (Jesus is all-knowing). Rav Shlomo injects light into us (Jesus is the light of the world). Rav Shlomo’s ancestors include Syrians and Jews (Some believe the Antichrist will be an Assyrian). Rav Shlomo is an only child (Jesus was the only begotten Son of God). It is obvious that Rav Sholom is not the true Messiah (the Jews’ true Messiah will appear to them at the end of the Tribulation Period), but these claims could be part of the reason why Israel accepts the wrong man before they get it right.
Here are links to three short videos readers might want to watch.
Eight, on Oct. 24, 2022, it was reported that globalists in several Western nations are waging war on nitrogen (a main ingredient in fertilizer) to stop climate change.
If these climate change fanatics succeed, many fertilizer companies will reduce their production or completely shut down their factories, the use of fertilizer will be greatly reduced or eliminated, and food shortages and famine will quickly spread all over the world.
Shortages have already started, and they will go worldwide in a matter of months.
The U.S. now has a radical climate change czar, John Kerry, and our nation will not be exempt.
Nine, concerning famine: on Oct. 20, 2022, it was reported that 7th graders in 100 primary schools in the Netherlands were served insects and mealworms for lunch.
This wasn’t the first time something like this has happened.
1,000 schools in Australia have been selling chips made from insects.
Factories in Canada are raising crickets and selling organic cricket flour.
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Sorry you're still not feeling well hon. I posted in chat about my doctors appointment. (I try to post there every weekday and occasionally on weekends.) I sure hope you start feeling better soon!
Good post! I completely agree. It's weird because you'd think that people would realize that it's completely irrational for them to get so angry about the Bible or churches or Christians. We could point out numerous examples of other things that people totally disagree about, and yet they don't hate others for saying the opposite. For example, one person may say that unicorns were a real animal that's now extinct and their best friend may say that's not true; but it wouldn't bother their friendship at all. Or as you pointed out too, no one uses the name of Buddha, or Zeus, or George Washington, or Pilot, Mary, or any of the disciples as cuss words. The only one they use is the Name of our Lord, Jesus. There's only one thing that comes close to the way the unsaved hate God, His Word and us, His children, and its only really started recently. I'm talking about the way Democrats and Republicans have been treating each other ever since Obama ran for president the first time. That has broken up friendships. However, I don't know if it's true about everyone, but many of the republican's are Christians, so it may still be a case of the unsaved against the saved. Only God knows that for sure though.
I've been researching a lot in the Bible lately about what God says about the Truth and lies. I have to admit that I've been amazed at what the Lord has been showing me. Lately I've been saying things like, "I never noticed that before!" and "Wow, that's amazing!" and just finding a lot of things that show for sure that we are in the last days of the Age of Grace. I'm also seeing a great deal of scriptures that show that the more evil prevails, the more deceit there is in society and the less truth is around. Obviously we're seeing that in our society today.
It's so interesting to me because Truth is represented by the Father, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and God's children, and deceit is represented by the Satan, the Antichrist and the false prophet, and Satan's children. Truth is also represented by light, and deceit by darkness. And so on. And the world is certainly growing darker ever day.
Instead of being depressing though, it should cause us to shine up our crowns and look up, for our salvation is much closer now than before!

Cindy you may lack essential vitaims have you try mulitvitan that my doctor recommand I taking calicum pill over the counter that I score at CVS yeah it could be hormonal thingy there MAN it was cold last night first time I got into my winter PJ put on house heater last night for first time it was cold thank Goodness I have GW blankets from Bates Mill store they keep you warm honey Thanks for thinking of me Kelly. I do take a multivitamin and other supplements. The doctor took a biopsy of my scalp and is hoping that will tell us why I've been losing my hair. He said he didn't think I'd lose it all, but sadly said there wasn't anything they could do about it that I hadn't already tried. He did however give me a prescription for something that's supposed to stop the itching. I'm not sure about using it though because the pharmacy told me it's a gel. So how can I put a gel all over my scalp without it being very obvious? If it's truly like that, I'll have to call and ask him what in the world he was thinking! It was weird though as I was fine after the biopsy until about 2 hours later when I knelt down to get some photos and suddenly there was blood everywhere! We finally got that stopped and then about a half hour or so later when I got up to get something to eat, the same thing happened. Thankfully, that was the last time though. I think it's safe to say it shouldn't happen again.
I want to get the shingles vaccine too. But I think I'll wait till next weekend.

Good for you Kelly! I'm off to my doctors appointment and to get some blood work done. So I guess I'd better get dressed and get ready. I sure hope this doctor can figure out why I'm losing all my hair.
Almost all the leaves are off the trees now. There's only a few hold outs. We had some big storms that had high winds and that's what took down all the leaves.

Glad to hear you'll be around for awhile yet Kelly! That's pretty neat that your doctor comes here to check on you!
I couldn't sleep so stopped by here since I got held up yesterday. But now I'm starting to get sleepy again.

By Daymond Duck, Published on: October 22, 2022
Passover was approaching, and Jesus was headed to Jerusalem, where He would die on the cross (Matt. 26:17-19; 26-30). He stopped just outside the city at a small town called Bethany. One of His Disciples asked, “Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the Passover?” Peter sent James and John to a certain man’s house in Jerusalem, and they prepared the Passover meal (Matt. 26:18). Evening came, and Jesus arrived with the Disciples. The one named Judas Iscariot left, and while the Passover meal was in progress, Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper. They finished the Passover meal and Lord’s Supper, sang a hymn, and went to the Mount of Olives and the Garden of Gethsemane. It is a blessing to know that Jesus left the room singing and rejoicing, not complaining, weeping, or afraid because He was headed to the cross. It was the Jewish custom to sing the Hallel (Psa. 113-118) and the Great Hallel (Psa. 136) after they finished the Passover meal, so most scholars believe Jesus and His disciples sang these Psalms on the night of the Last Supper. The word “Hallel” is the first part of the word “Hallelujah,” and it means praise. “Jah” is short for Yahweh (Jehovah or God). Hallelujah or Allelujah means “praise the Lord” or “praise God.”
Here are some selected verses from Psa. 118 with my comments.
“Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endureth for ever” (Vs. 4).
Let those that respect God say His mercy will never end. “I called upon the Lord in distress: the LORD answered me” (Vs. 5).
Jesus was sweating great drops of blood in Gethsemane, He prayed, and God sent angels to strengthen Him. “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me” (Vs. 6).
With God on our side, we cannot be defeated. “All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them” (Vs. 10).
The days of those that reject God are numbered. “The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation” (Vs. 14).
I sing about God, the source of my strength and salvation. “I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD” (Vs. 17)
I will not permanently die, but will live again and declare what God has done. “The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death” (Vs. 18).
God sent me to the cross, but the cross won’t be the end of me. “The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner” (Vs. 22).
God sent His Son to be the main stone in a spiritual house, but the Jews rejected Him, so He has been made the main stone in another spiritual house called the Church. “This is the LORD’S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes” (Vs. 23).
The death of Jesus was the wonderful work of God. Hallelujah!
Here are some stories that recently made the news.
One, on Oct. 13, 2022, Yitzchak Weiss, the principal of a music school in Israel, got 600 Jewish men from the Tribe of Levi (descendants of Aaron the priest that served at the Temple in Old Testament Times) to gather on the steps going up to the Temple Mount to rehearse music for a Temple service.
The group practiced a medley from the Hallel (Psa. 113-118), and the event was co-sponsored by the city of Jerusalem.
Levites stopped singing when the Temple was destroyed in 70 A.D., but Weiss wants Levites to start singing again and be ready to sing, if called upon, during services at the rebuilt Temple.
It is doubtful that they realize the full significance of singing the Hallel, but God can bring good from it.
Jesus is the only permanent sacrifice for sin, but the sooner the Jews rebuild the Temple and restart the worship services, the sooner their blinding will cease, and the sooner all Israel will be saved.
Two, concerning forcing people to take a Mark to buy and sell: in 2021, Florida (Fla.) passed a law banning cruise lines from requiring passengers to be vaccinated to go on a cruise.
The Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings sued, and a U.S. District Judge ruled that Fla.’s law was unconstitutional.
Fla. appealed the U.S. District Judge’s ruling, and on Oct. 6, 2022, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed it.
The Chief Judge of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals wrote, “Without this statute, unvaccinated Floridians risk being turned away from the businesses that make their lives possible — grocery stores, restaurants, fitness gyms, clothing stores, barber shops and hair salons, and even pharmacies.”
In my words, the Judge said if it wasn’t for this law, businesses could refuse to let people buy and sell, and that is unconstitutional discrimination.
Three, concerning the Ten Kings (the division of the world into ten groups of nations before the Antichrist appears): on Oct. 14, 2022, the Independent Sentinel posted an article that said, “George Soros, Hillary Clinton, and John Podesta have all suggested we should unite into a North American Union. . .. A North American Union moves us quickly towards a one-world government under UN governance.”
According to the article, “Matt Gaetz reported that Secretary of State Antony Blinken called for a North American Union like the EU that would allow free transit across borders with tyrannical Canada and narco-terrorist Mexico.”
Also, on Oct. 14, 2022, Fox News host Tucker Carlson (Tucker Carlson Tonight) interviewed Gaetz about this, and Gaetz said he wrote Blinken about it, but Blinken didn’t respond.
On Oct. 17, 2022, an article posted by The New American said, “since Blinken speaks for the Biden administration, it’s fair to assume this is now unofficial federal policy.”
I have long said that the UN has made the EU the pattern for Ten groups or regions of nations that will produce the Ten Kings.
According to The New American article, Carlson said, “So the European Union has not really worked out well for Europe, and we’ll know the details this winter when people are freezing. So naturally, the Biden administration wants to create something very much like that in North America: an EU [European Union] style government.”
The purpose of groups or regions having an EU-type government is that it will be easier to merge them into a one-world government if they are all structured alike.
Four, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog: on Oct. 17, 2022, Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation (#2 position in Russia), wrote on Telegram, “It seems Israel will supply weapons to the Kyiv regime. A very reckless move. It will destroy all diplomatic relations between our countries.”
Five, concerning the distress of nations with perplexity (Luke 21:25): on Oct. 16, 2022, about 140,000 people marched in Paris, France, to protest rising prices and EU policies that caused them.
On Sept. 3, 2022, more than 100,000 people marched in Prague, Czech., to protest the sanctions against Russia and high energy prices.
World leaders are expecting more large protests in the future over the worsening living conditions (inflation, food and energy shortages, etc.).
Six, concerning world government: on Oct. 16, 2022, it was reported that Pope Francis believes the UN needs to be reformed, and he believes the world needs a new economic system.
According to the Bible, the UN will be reformed and brought under the leadership of Ten Kings, and there will be a new global economic system that the False Prophet and Antichrist will use to institute the Mark of the Beast.
Pope Francis is either one of the most Biblically illiterate popes ever or one of the most evil.
He regularly supports policies that Satan’s Antichrist and False Prophet support.
Seven, concerning a falling away or a departing from the faith in the Church: on Oct. 15, 2022, it was announced that Pope Francis has appointed a non-Catholic, pro-abortion, pro-globalist, self-described atheist to the Pontifical Academy for Life (a group that promotes Catholic teachings on medical issues).
Pope Francis has appointed pro-abortion, pro-gay, pro-globalist people to other positions in the Roman Catholic Church before.
Eight, concerning Biden’s weakening America and Build Back Better goal: on Oct. 18, 2022, the Heritage Foundation released its “2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength,” in which they rated the U.S. military as weak.
According to the Heritage Foundation report, “the military’s ability to fulfill its primary mission is in jeopardy.”
Our Commander in Chief has our military focusing on Climate Change, gay rights, many of our troops are women who are not as strong as men and get sick a lot, recruiters can’t meet their goals, etc.
America is losing respect all over the world.
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

I'm so sorry! I kept looking on the "participated" link and didn't see anything by you, so thought you hadn't started anything yet. It wasn't till now that I realized it wouldn't show up there because I hadn't posted on it yet! Unfortunately, I'm running late so will have to check this tomorrow. Sorry hon, but I'm sure it's good anyway!

Sorry Barbara, I meant to quote you too and must not have pushed on the select button hard enough! But thank you too for your prayers for Jennifer!
Yes, saying prayer for Jennifer also. I laughed when I saw that dancing Thanksgiving turkey.
So now you have me interested in seeing this ugly suit that man wears. lol
I like that scripture Proverbs 27:18. That is a comfort that the end results a person knows, will show as truth. Now there are lies. I'm glad you enjoyed the dancing turkey. Thanks so much for your prayer! She felt like she might be going to have one yesterday, but didn't. I'm praying she will have one today. She has the portable EEG removed on Monday, so she has to have one before then! Is this the proverb you're talking about? “He who tends a fig tree will eat its fruit, and he who looks after his master will be honored.” (Proverbs 27:18)
Well just found out that my wacky Alaskan uncle and aunt plan to visit perhaps this Thanksgiving stay over couple weeks later btw we may rain Black Friday on So CAL LOL! That the plan my mom talk to her brother up in Alaska that is my uncle I think just a visit hang out with the family maybe oh well we go to Santa Anita Park to bet on the horseys LOL! That sounds like it will be fun for you to see your Aunt and Uncle again! You'll have to tell us all about it!

Hello everyone, I have been keeping so busy for the month of October and November with work that needs to be done. Sometimes I listen to Christmas music lol seems to be uplifting after working, but have been thinking about the Bible studies, the last one was so interesting, though the scripture doesn't seem like it would be Luke 4:26 27. Jesus mentioned about Naamen the leper that was healed in the OT at 2nd Kings chapter 5. Hi Marlene, you sure have been missed! That would make a great Bible study!In my area they start play christmas music on one of radio station 3 weeks before Thanksgiving I tell you know who it is UA it is Kost 103.5 FM LOL! well it was warm last night not as warm as SO CAL summer night got cooler later on the evening I think this is after today cool off we going get little rain on Saturday after that cool off lower 70s upper 60s and upper 50s for now at evening So Fall is officially here in SO CAL and getting darker earlier I usually listen to Christmas music starting the day after Thanksgiving. My Mom wouldn't let me listen to it before then so it got to be a habit. I do sometimes listen to it before then when no one else is around! We got down to 32 last night too!
Ever since the month of July we have had plenty of rain and I am starting to get concerned about an increase in mice, we bought the humane catch and release mouse traps, the beautiful feral calico cat is fat now, try to say hi but the cat runs away, a few days ago the cat was with another black cat and the fluffy white dog came along and killed the black cat and tried to get the calico cat but it ran up into the engine area of our truck and was safe there, I had to bury the black cat. That's too sad about the cat that died. Is the calico just fat or is she pregnant?
We're off to do our shopping and to help my youngest son Christopher today. Jennifer went to the hospital this morning and is now wearing a portable EEG. They want to record one of the seizures, so she has to wear it for 3 days. I'd sure appreciate any prayers for her. Please ask the Lord to cause her to have one of them while she's wearing the EEG, and to give the doctor wisdom to treat her in the best way possible. Thanks so much. I can't tell you how much I appreciate any prayers that you guys are led to pray for my family members!

I never seen that high man I haven't been on rapture ready until recently I am not on forum it pretty crazy how high it is on rapture index Yeah, it's really high now. If I recall correctly, it's been at this number since October 17th. It doesn't surprise me that it's high, I think I'm more surprised we aren't already gone. But I keep reminding myself of what God's Word says about it: “But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:8–9)

Wow, it's been a long time since I used that graphic! I originally made it for rapture ready, before I started my own board. That would have been around 2001!
Yesterday was my Tuesday Bible study with my neighbor. She's learning fast too! We finished the book of John yesterday, and changed our plans for what to do next. I was going to do a survey of the Old Testament for her, as she really needs some background, but felt I should ask her if there's anything else she'd like to do. She wants to do a study on the End Times. I should have known! It seems like every person and every group I've done a Bible Study with, always wants to learn what God says about the End Times. The very first time I led a study about that was back in 1997 or 98. It's been so long ago now that I can't even remember for sure. But that first one I did was with a group of people that I worked with. I think we had 5 people that time. The Lord's shown me so much more since than, that it's amazing to me!
Sorry I was late posting today. I've been here for quite awhile, but was trying to get all my smilies and graphics in a better order. Well, I'd better go check on the Bible studies and see what else is up!

By Dave Hubley
There is currently a very high level of prophetic excitement.
Not misplaced excitement.
Not irrational excitement.
Not “pie in the sky by and by” excitement.
But real, rational, “Prophetic Scripture-Becoming-Reality” excitement.
The convergence of prophesied events/conditions/circumstances is breathtaking.
While we have to remember that the Rapture will happen in the Lord’s perfect timing and make a sober assessment of what we see in the myriad signs breaking out all throughout creation, it is exciting to witness them all at once as they currently seem to be.
When believers gather together for Bible studies now, more often than not, the conversation turns to a “Look Up, For Your Redemption Draws Near” kind of excitement.
A Crown of Righteousness excitement and a Blessed Hope excitement!
Best of all, I’m not exaggerating, and I don’t need to, at least in my circles, and certainly not on sober, serious and Biblically-based, prophecy-based websites.
At the same time, it must be said, there is a heightened sense of sadness for the people who will simply not be willing to bow the knee to the only One who can save them.
The signs that the Lord Jesus plainly stated will occur at “the time of the end” are currently on full and open display, and we must pray without ceasing for the lost and for those who are searching.
And we must witness at every opportunity.
“There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth dismay among the nations, bewildered by the roaring of the sea and the surging of the waves. Men will faint from fear and anxiety over what is coming upon the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to happen, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near” (Luke 21:25-28).
“You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains” (Matthew 24:6-8).
In only the last week, there have been numerous weather anomalies, severe earthquakes (many now in 6.0 or higher category), hurricanes/typhoons, and other indicators that these prophesied conditions would become the “new normal.” They are increasing just as birth pangs immediately precede the birth itself.
Economic conditions are on an undeniable fast track to disaster, and this is caused and being exacerbated with intent to destroy any trace of independence and freedom.
Although it is undeniably occurring worldwide, America appears to be the primary target at this point in time, even from within.
Everyday necessities will soon be out of the reach of all but the wealthy. Many people who imagine themselves to be wealthy (and therefore secure) will soon be hit with a hard dose of reality.
“In that day men will cast away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and gold—the idols they made to worship. They will flee to caverns in the rocks and crevices in the cliffs, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth. Put no more trust in man, who has only the breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?” (Isaiah 2:20-22)
The human condition has also become untenable in terms of its ongoing degradation and downward spiral. These and other passages contained in God’s Word, and provided to all who will listen, testify to the reality of the present day.
*(Romans 1:18-32); (2 Peter 3:3-7); (2 Timothy 3:1-5). Read them for yourself and decide how real these activities are and how rampant they now are.
*If you do not have a Bible but desire to confirm the accuracy of the above scripture passages as they apply to the present day, they can be accessed on [Bible Hub.com] or by opening the Word of God for yourself.
Bibles are still readily available, but this, too, is a condition that will eventually change (Amos 8:11).
If you do have a Bible but have forgotten about it, perhaps it is time to dust it off and become familiar with the revealed Word of God. It could save your eternal soul.
If in reading these realities, you feel convicted and do not know what to do, there is a special message for you at the end of this article.
Interestingly, many secular websites and news media are (oftentimes) inadvertently joining in the conversation via their speculation. In the process of reporting(?), they are confirming the Truth of that which the Word of God has warned about from Genesis to the hard realities of the book of Revelation.
God’s Inerrant Word is coming to vibrant and sobering everyday life.
Many people you come into contact with during normal(?) everyday activities are wondering, “what on earth is going on?”
You can’t miss it!
And in this is our opportunity to witness to them that the real question is, “what in the heavens is going on!”
But, my brothers and sisters, put on the full Armor of God and be willing to endure “the looks” that you may receive in the process of fulfilling our responsibilities to the Lord.
One short sentence from our Lord Jesus, “Well done my good and faithful servant,” will be worth truckloads of blank or hostile stares, open skepticism, and miles and miles of negative responses.
For those of us who witness these things, they are familiar “looks” indeed, but the evidence of our message is mounting and has now reached the point where it must be willfully ignored, brushed aside, or openly denied.
This is no longer so easy to do in 2022 when the sense by so many people everywhere is that “something is up.”
Best of all, these present circumstances are opening doors for the Holy Spirit to convict and convince the unsaved who might otherwise be unwilling to hear with their ears and see with their eyes what those eyes and ears are plainly showing them.
It appears that the much longed-for Blessed Hope may be very soon indeed.
“looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ” (Titus 2:13).
In the ancient and last book in the Old Testament, the book of Malachi, the Nature and Spirit of God are evidenced.
“Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD gave attention and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the LORD and who esteem His name. ‘They will be Mine,’ says the LORD of hosts, ‘on the day that I prepare My own possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.’ So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him” (Malachi 3:16-18).
This book was written to the Hebrews to call their attention to the fact that God remembers those who fear and revere Him and that He would act at His appointed time, and they would be His.
Written by that same Spirit of the Sovereign Lord, who knew that the next intervention in human existence by Him would involve the first coming of His Son, Jesus The Messiah.
That He would shift His focus to the church built upon the Solid Foundation of Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection, and it would be comprised of a people who love Him, fear Him with a Godly fear, esteem Him, and are called by His Blessed Name: Christians.
We do not set dates, but we do watch the seasons and prepare ourselves.
“And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!” (Mark 13:37)
The special message I promised you:
For anyone who may read this article and has not trusted in Jesus Christ and therefore has no hope or peace in your life:
You can have hope. You can have the peace that Jesus has promised to all who have made Him their Lord and Savior. The peace that passes understanding.
It requires that you come before God on His terms.
And, what are His terms according to His Word?
Genuine repentance (turning to God instead of continuing to reject or ignore Him). Confession of sins (that you are a sinner and acknowledge that to God). That you understand that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). To acknowledge to God that you are unable to pay that debt. Belief that Jesus Christ paid your death sentence for you on the cross. To believe that Jesus is the Way, the only Way, that God has established by which humans may be saved from the consequences of their sin and rebellion. God has made it absolutely clear that there is no one who comes before Him, under His terms, that will be refused.
No one: no race, no color, no country of origin, regardless of any previous belief system: no one. No matter what your past sins have been, God can and WILL forgive you because He says He will. Salvation is available to everyone without any exceptions. If you put all your trust for salvation in Jesus, and Him only, you can follow that prayer up by simply saying, “Thank you, Father God, for hearing my prayer and saving me,” because we can trust Him to keep His Word. He always has. He always will.
John 5:24: “Truly, Truly, I say to you that he who hears My words and believes the One who sent Me has eternal life and will not be condemned. He has crossed from death to life.”
There are no answers and there is no hope in the world by governments, organizations, politics or politicians. There are only lies and deception. But you can have the Truth and the peace you seek.
The answers are in the Word of God—The Bible. If you ask God with all your heart, He will hear you. “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13).

I just checked to see what the Rapture Index was at. It's at a high of 188 now. It's only been one point higher than that once, so having it be this high is significant.

Here in New Hampshire 50 is quite literally t-shirt weather. Right now it's 53. In fact, I even see people wearing shorts when it's 55 or higher. It seems like the older people feel the cold sooner than the other people though. I say that mainly because it seems like I feel the cold sooner than I used to now that I'm getting closer to 70 years old.

I love hearing that you're studying the Bible Kelly! And Ezekiel 38 and 39 are pretty amazing! I keep waiting to see if that war is going to happen before the rapture or not. It will be awesome to see you in person when we're all joining our Jesus in the air! If you'd like to see a Bible study about something, just let me know and I'll do my best to do one for you. Or we could do it together or do it with Barbara too!
Here's the newest article. They must have posted it quite late yesterday because I checked again just before I had to shut off my computer after noon. fresh-hope.com/thread/7488/last-chance

By Daymond Duck, Published on: October 16, 2022
On Oct. 3, 2022, Franklin Graham wrote, “To say that much is at stake (in the Nov. 8, 2022, election) is a gross understatement. It isn’t just control of Congress; it may be our last chance to stop the immoral and ungodly policies that have brought our great nation to the moral brink of disaster.”
He asked, “What happens to a nation that continues in its wicked ways with no repentance?”
He responded, “Israel and Judah both went into captivity and exile.”
Two days later, on Oct. 5, 2022, it was reported that Tony Perkins said in an interview with Decision Magazine that we are not only in “a battle for the soul of the nation, but it’s a battle for the children of our nation—their souls.”
Perkins added, our government is locking “children into a path that leads to destruction.”
We are hearing that the Nov. election may be the most important election of our lives, and that may be true, especially for the future and eternal destiny of our children, grandchildren, etc.
(Note: Some officials and prophecy teachers believe the Democrats will create a crisis to change the voting rules or call off the election if they think they are going to lose.)
(Note: On Oct. 6, 2022, it was reported that a study by the Public Interest Legal Foundation found that 13.3 million voters in New York do not have documents to prove their identity.)
Here are more articles about “immoral and ungodly policies” in our nation and signs that the end of the age is near.
One, concerning deceit: on Oct. 5, 2022, it was reported that Pres. Trump wanted to fill America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserves (SPR) in 2020 with U.S.-produced oil that cost $24 per barrel.
According to the report, Sen. Chuck Schumer defeated Trump’s proposal and boasted that he and the Democrats had blocked Trump’s “bailout for big oil.”
Pres. Biden has sold a lot of America’s SPR to try to stop the rise of gasoline prices before the mid-term elections.
It is now being reported that Pres. Biden recently tried to secretly keep OPEC+ from cutting their oil production by offering to buy up to 200 million barrels of OPEC+ oil at a cost of $80 per barrel to refill America’s SPR.
Have you got that?
Democrats blocked Trump from buying oil for $24 per barrel from U.S. oil companies, but Biden offered to buy oil from OPEC+ for $80 per barrel from foreigners.
America badly needs leaders that put American jobs and taxpayers first.
(Note: Biden has not only sold a lot of America’s SPR, but he has also given so many of America’s weapons to Ukraine, and the U.S. military now says our supply of weapons is at dangerously low levels. If we get into a major war, it is beginning to look like America won’t have enough oil, troops, or weapons.)
(Note: On Oct. 11, 2022, a former 4-term Democrat Congresswoman and former Democrat candidate for Pres. of the U.S., Tulsi Gabbard, announced that she is leaving the Democrat party. Gabbard said, “I believe in a government that is of the people, by the people, and for the people. Unfortunately, today’s Democratic Party does not. Instead, it stands for a government that is of, by, and for the powerful elite.”)
Two, concerning wickedness and corruption in the U.S. Dept. of Justice (DOJ): under the Biden administration, more than 100 pro-life pregnancy centers and churches have been vandalized, there have been hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage, and video cameras have recorded some of them, but not even one person has been arrested.
On the other hand, about 15 vehicles carrying 25-30 FBI agents with drawn guns recently showed up at a pro-life speaker’s home at 7:05 in the morning to arrest him for a one-year-old incident that has already been tried and thrown out of court.
It now appears that some criminals (those that damage pro-life facilities — for example, arsonists and looters with Antifa and Black Lives Matter) — are immune from FBI arrest, but innocent people are being arrested and hauled away by FBI agents if someone in our government opposes their politics, their position on abortion, or whatever.
Three, concerning wickedness and corruption in the DOJ: according to a DOJ document that a whistleblower gave to Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee titled “Retirements and Resignations During Unwelcome Sexual Conduct Adjudications,” more than 660 FBI employees, including 45 top-level officials, resigned before they could receive a disciplinary letter.
According to the Report, on Oct. 6, 2022, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Chuck Grassley, sent a letter to U.S. Attorney Gen. Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray requesting information on what they are doing to address the situation.
Four, concerning corruption in the White House:
- Federal agents have been investigating, lying, and covering up for Hunter Biden since 2018.
- On Oct. 7, 2022, it was reported that they may now be getting ready to charge him with lying and tax evasion.
It is impossible to predict what the government will do, but there is speculation that Hunter will receive a slap on the wrist (a small fine), his dad will pardon his crimes, and then the DOJ will say they have to go after former Pres. Donald Trump and his children to be fair to both parties.
Time will tell, but there is something rotten in Washington when Hillary and Hunter are untouchable, but people that want to Make America Great Again are hauled away from home by the FBI.
Five, concerning deceit and corruption: on Oct. 9, 2022, it was reported that two states (Missouri and Louisiana) and several individuals have filed a lawsuit against 67 officials and agencies (against Pres. Biden; individuals in the FBI, the FDA, HHS; against Dr. Anthony Fauci, Facebook, Google, Twitter, and others) for violating the First Amendment rights of citizens.
Among other things, the lawsuit claims these 67 officials and agencies possibly communicated with each other to censor citizens on:
- Covid-19 information.
- The Hunter Biden laptop information.
- Election security, integrity, outcomes, and/or public confidence in election outcomes.
The states and individuals are backing up their lawsuit with e-mails obtained through the discovery process.
(Note: On Oct. 10, 2022, it was reported that the two FBI agents that contacted Facebook before the 2020 election and recommended the censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story donated money to the Democrats.)
Six, concerning deceit and corruption: on Oct. 10, 2022, a Pfizer executive told the European Parliament the company never tested its Covid-19 vaccine to see if it would prevent the transmission of the virus.
Millions of citizens were forced to get vaccinated to protect others from Covid-19, and we now know that the claim of protection was a fabricated lie.
Seven, concerning deceit and corruption in the FBI and the Democrat National Committee: on Oct. 11, 2022, it was reported that an FBI supervisor (Brian Auten) admitted that the FBI offered $1 million to ex-British intelligence agent Christopher Steele for proof that his allegations in the famous Steele Dossier against former Pres. Trump and his 2016 campaign were true, but Steele said he could not prove the allegations.
According to Auten (who was under oath in the trial of a Russian that was involved), the FBI used the unproven information in court to get a warrant to spy on Trump campaign aid Carter Page.
Auten also testified that the Steele Dossier was commissioned by a firm called Fusion GPS that was being paid with money funneled through a law firm (Perkins Coie) by the Hillary Clinton Campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
If I understand this correctly, Hillary and the Democrats paid people to create the so-called “Russian Collusion” story to try to defeat Trump in 2016, the FBI offered $1 million for proof that the “Russian Collusion” story was true (and there was no proof), but the FBI still used the unproven information to get illegal court warrants (perhaps 4) to spy on Trump campaign aids.
There is more: the FBI then put the Russian that apparently made up the lie on the government payroll and paid him for 4 years during the Trump administration, and when the Hunter Biden laptop story broke, the FBI put Auten in charge of the cover-up.
Trump should have been exonerated but wasn’t; people’s lives were ruined, millions of taxpayer dollars were spent investigating Trump, and some Democrats want Hillary to run for president again.
Eight, concerning perilous times: Russian Pres. Putin recently said he will use every weapon (including nuclear weapons) at his disposal to win the war with Ukraine.
- On Oct. 4, 2022, it was reported that Ukraine is sending potassium iodine pills to evacuation centers for public distribution in case Russia follows through on the use of nuclear weapons.
- On Oct. 5, 2022, Poland announced that it has asked the U.S. to station nuclear weapons on its territory (note: U.S. officials denied that they have received the request).
- On Oct. 5, 2022, the Biden administration announced plans to buy $390 million dollars’ worth of Nplate, a drug used to treat radiation sickness (note: this drug can cause deadly side effects).
- On Oct. 6, 2022, Pres. Biden said the risk of a nuclear Armageddon is at the highest level since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.
As far as I know, there are no Scriptures about the use of nuclear weapons before the Tribulation Period, but there are verses that seem to indicate that nuclear weapons will be used during the Tribulation Period (Zech. 14:12; Rev. 6:14).
Some or all this talk about using nuclear weapons may be propaganda, but tensions are rising, threatening to use nuclear weapons should not be taken lightly, and officials need to look for ways to calm the situation.
Nine, concerning the tracking of all buying and selling: on Oct. 5, 2022, the Canadian government admitted that it has signed a $105.3 million contract with the World Economic Forum (WEF) to create a digital ID system for travelers.
It has also been reported that they want every Canadian in a national ID System.
Ten, concerning the tracking of all buying and selling: on Oct. 7, 2022, it was reported that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has pledged $1.27 billion to the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals with the understanding that $200 million will be spent on creating a global ID system with a data-sharing system, and databases.
The goal is to get everyone on earth into a single global database by 2030 with information on what they do, say, write, buy, sell, etc., that can be used to control them.
This sounds very much like the prophesied Mark of the Beast system that will bring an end to freedom on earth (and the Rapture is a minimum of 3 ½ years before that).
Eleven, concerning offending people: on Oct. 3, 2022, the famous Hal Lindsey pointed out that Jesus was talking about signs of His Second Coming when He said, “then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another” (Matt. 24:10).
According to Lindsey, “There has never been a time when more people were more offended over more things than right now” (things real and imagined, words spoken and unspoken, political affiliation, etc.).
As usual, he is right on target.
Twelve, theft is one of six sins that the Book of Revelation says unbelievers will not repent of during the Tribulation Period (Rev. 9:20-21).
On Sept. 28, 2022, it was reported that the District Attorney in El Dorado County, Cal., said shoplifting is out of control in the state.
Thirteen, on Oct. 8, 2022, it was reported that Tyson Foods announced that it will move its corporate headquarters from Chicago, Il, to Arkansas because of crime.
Approximately 1,100 employees will be impacted.
Fourteen, concerning the Temple: on Oct. 7, 2022, a District Court Judge in Jerusalem ruled that banning Jews from the Temple Mount is a serious violation of Jewish freedom of movement.
The Judge also ruled that banning Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount is illegal.
Fifteen, concerning Temple worship: on Oct. 12, 2022, Jewish priests and Levites dressed in priestly clothes performed the water libation service (pouring out of water: Jesus poured out His soul on the cross to give us living water; salvation, eternal life, the Holy Spirit).
They started at the Temple Dung Gate, played musical instruments, blew trumpets, beat drums, sang, and danced their way to the Pool of Siloam at the base of Mount Moriah.
They filled a golden flask with water, took it back up to an altar that had been set up near the Wailing Wall, and poured out the living water (pure running water).
They are ready to resume the service at the Temple as soon as it is rebuilt.
Sixteen, concerning famine, pestilence, and war: on Oct. 10, 2022, a veteran of the U.S. Army Special Forces said:
- 26 major fertilizer plants in Europe have closed or are on the verge of closing.
- The fertilizer shortage will lead to famine.
- Famine is one side of a triangle of death (famine, pestilence, and war).
- One side of the triangle always leads to the other two sides.
- Many nations have been importing fertilizer from Europe, so the lack of fertilizer in Europe will lead to a lack of fertilizer in other nations.
Seventeen, concerning world government: on Oct. 12, 2022, it was reported that an investigation by a news outlet in Hungary called Index found that the U.S. Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), investment banks, prominent academic institutions, the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR), George Soros, and other globalist groups are giving money to candidates that will push the globalist agenda all over the world.
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Hope you all had a great time worshipping the Lord today, and that you got to hear a great sermon from God's Word today! We have such a wonderful God. It's so sad to think that many people turn away from such a loving God and instead turn to Satan who is a liar and actually hates them and wants them to rot in hell. Then there's all the people who think they're serving themselves, but that's an illusion as they are actually serving Satan too. If only everyone could see how much better life is when you give your life up and live for Jesus instead of yourself. It's not easy to do though. I'm always curious about the people who say that being a Christian is easy and wonder why they say that. Paul didn't think it was easy! Nor did the other apostles. Yes, Jesus enables us to obey Him, but we have to first make it our will to do so. Every day we have to wake up and remind ourselves that we aren't living for ourself, but for Jesus. In fact, I need to remind myself of that constantly through out the day, because otherwise my flesh will take over and I'll sin. Like this whole mask and vaccinations thing. If we're living for Jesus, that means we are going to act and speak out of an attitude of sacrificial love for the other person(s). It means the same thing no matter what our situation is.
oops! I thought I'd posted this, but guess I forgot to. Sorry about that!

Do it in whatever way is easiest for you hon.
DAY THREE AND DAY FOUR
As you have probably observed, Christ, rejoice/joy, mind/attitude and their synonyms are used throughout Philippians. (A synonym is a word that has the same meaning as another word within a particular context.) Therefore, these are key words for this book.
Discovering key words is vital to your understanding of the meaning of a text. Like keys, key words “unlock” what a passage of Scripture is about. Observing key words and phrases is important because they help identify the author’s repeated emphasis and how he accomplishes his purpose for writing.
It will be helpful to make a Key Word Bookmark for Philippians. You might use the one on the back of your Precept book which has suggestions for marking frequently used words such as “Christ.” Write Christ, joy/rejoice, and mind/attitude on the blank side and mark each of these the way you want to mark them on your Observation Worksheets. You’ll add other key words as you continue to study.
1. Read Philippians and mark the key words Christ and rejoice/joy, along with their synonyms and pronouns.
2. Read Philippians again and mark mind/attitude.
3. On the page “Key Words in Philippians” at the end of this lesson, list what Paul says about rejoice/joy and what he says about mind/attitude. As you make your lists, be sure to note what is said regarding these key words in relation to Christ.
4. Record these key words on the “Philippians at a Glance” chart.
By the way, have you ever heard someone say, “The joy of the Lord is my strength”? Did you wonder what he or she was talking about? By the end of this study of Philippians you will not only know the answer but we pray you’ll be saying it yourself.
5. Did you notice any other key words (with their synonyms) repeated in all four chapters? If you noticed any key repeated words and their synonyms, record these below. Then read Philippians and mark the other key words you observed.
6. Read through Philippians to see what the author talks about the most. Pay attention to the key words you’ve marked.
7. In Philippians the key words Christ and rejoice are the main subjects or themes of the book. The theme of a book is the main subject(s) or topic(s) in the book.
a. Use words from the text to summarize the main themes of Christ and rejoice/joy. You might look at your list on these key words to see any possibilities. Consider the following:
1) The theme should be based on an objective evaluation of what the author emphasizes through repetition, not just a subjective leaning toward what ministered the most to you.
2) You do not have to “come up” with the theme. It should always be based on repetition in the book and its context.
b. Record the theme of Philippians in the appropriate location at the top of your “Philippians at a Glance” chart. When you have completed your chart, you will have a wonderful visual tool that will give you the main content of Philippians on one concise chart.
