FINAL JUDGMENT GOING ON NOW!

Solemn are the scenes connected with the closing work of the Judgment. Momentous are the interests involved. The Judgment is now passing in Heaven above. …In the awful presence of God our lives are to come up in review.

When the work of the investigative Judgment closes, the destiny of all will have been decided for eternal life or eternal death. Probation ends a short time before the appearing of the Lord in the clouds of heaven.

The righteous and the wicked will still be living on earth in their mortal state –there will be planting and building, eating and drinking - they will all be unconscious that the final, irrevocable decision has been pronounced in Heaven above….

Watch and pray; for you know not when the time is. Mark 13:33

Watch…lest coming suddenly He find you sleeping. Mark 13:35-36

Perilous is the condition of those who, growing weary of their watch, turn to the attractions of the world. 


While business men and women are absorbed in the pursuit of wealth, while the pleasure-lover is seeking indulgence, while the daughter of fashion is arranging her adornments – it may be in that hour the Judge of all the earth will pronounce the sentence, “Thou art weighed in the balances and art found wanting.”  (Daniel 5:27)

Why Worship God?

Why worship God when the ungodly are rich and happy?

 "Such words are spoken against Me!” says God.

 But you reply, "What did we say against God?" 

 You have said, "it is useless to serve God for what difference does it make if we keep His Laws and live a moral life?  The conceited are happy and the immoral have honor and prominence.  It seems that even those who provoke God are exalted!'"

 But the Lord hears those who love Him and witness about Him to others. The names of those who love and serve Him, and pray to Him are written in His Book of Remembrance.

"They will be My people", says God, "in the day when I return to claim My own.  I will save those who love Me, as a man saves his own son that serves him.  Then the difference between the righteous and the wicked will be discerned, between those who serve God and those who do not."

 The above quotes are from these Bible texts: Malachi 3:13-18

Appropriate Now !

Please read Blog January 12, 2015 - Stupendous Crisis Coming. Seems so appropriate right now.

We have an Advocate!

If anyone be in Christ, they are a new creature: old things are passed away, all things have become new.  2 Corinthians 5:17 

And you will be made alive, who were dead in sin. Ephesians 2:1

For the Father has made Jesus to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.  2 Corinthians 5:21

For this is good and acceptable to God our Savior: Who wants all people to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of truth. 1 Timothy 2:3-4

Not by our works of righteousness, but according to His mercy He saved us….  Titus 3:5

 My little children, these things I write to you, that you sin not. And if any one sins, we have an Advocate with the Father – Jesus Christ the righteous.   And He is the sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world!  1 John 2:1-2 

Lack of Faith? Lack of Healing?

Someone said they were mad at God because their mother, a woman of faith, was not healed and later  died. "why didn't God heal her?," he asked angrily. I was at a loss for words.

But today I learned that a a lack of divine healing does NOT mean the person has a lack of faith!

 The apostle Paul was a man of faith, yet God chose not to heal Paul of his "thorn in the side."

Why some healings occur and others don't is a mystery to us humans. Many times God's ways are past understanding.  I wish there was a more concrete answer I could give. But, keep the faith and trust in God is the best thing in this sinful old world.

Jesus will come soon, and all those who love God above all else will be healed and given perfect bodies, perfect minds, and perfect health at that time.

What does God Hate?

Just finished reading "Gods Lamb, our High Priest" by Loren Seibold in Signs of the Times November 2015 magazine. A caption on page 41 caught my attention:


"it's because God loves humanity so much - that He hates the damage sin has
done to us, the creatures created in His image."


This quote blew me away! Thank you Loren for this insight!

Even those who hate God

God loves everyone, even those who hate Him.
