Hello friends and family. Today is January 6th, 2021. Nine years ago today, on January 6th, 2012, I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. It is not the kind of anniversary a person typically celebrates, but it is an opportunity for me to give praise to God for His faithfulness in my life.

I don’t typically write a post this late, but I had a dentist appointment today to get two old silver fillings taken out. My face is still numb, which is funny as I type this. There was also a lot going on in our country today, and I spent time preaching the truth on Twitter. The Lord also opened a door to share the Gospel with an unbeliever this morning, which was awesome. Please pray for a girl named Milly. She asked great questions, and it is clear the Lord is drawing her to Himself.

The last nine years has been a huge learning experience for me. I was 33 when I was diagnosed. I am 42 now. There were times that I suffered torturous pain for many years. Many of you may remember a recent time in November when I was suffering badly again, and I appreciate you all praying for me. I am doing much better now, praise God!

All of these years have also been filled with great comfort and healing from the Lord. Through it all, I want you all to know that God has been so very faithful to me, and I give Him praise for all He has done to sustain me and lift me up! Jesus has never left my side, and He has given me great strength to endure this disease. The main truth I have learned is that His grace truly is sufficient for me.

“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”

-2 Corinthians 12:9-10

From the miracle the Lord did to save my life when I stopped breathing on 4-28-2012 to this very moment, God has shown me His great power and love through all my suffering. There were so many times that I wanted to give up, but the Lord would never give up on me. He always strengthens me and lifts me up by the power of His Holy Spirit! Indeed, if it wasn’t for His power in me I would not have made it this far. Truly, just as Paul said, when I am weak, then I am strong!

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about the day I died. I will never forget Jesus comforting me, telling me “It’s okay,” and putting me back in my body in the powerful wind of the Holy Spirit! It was incredible and amazing, and it gives me great strength to press on! We have nothing to fear in Jesus! He will be right there waiting for us when it’s our time to go, and there will be no more pain! He wipes it all away and we will be in perfect peace with the Lord forever!

My Lazarus Moment

I want to encourage all of you who are suffering chronic illness, disease, and pain to give it all to Jesus and rest in Him. I know it is hard and I know how bad it can hurt, but please never give up. There is a purpose in our pain. Sometimes it is to refine us, and sometimes it is to minister to others, and many times we don’t understand, but the Lord will see us through it all. His Word promises that He works everything out for the good of those who love Him. When you believe in Jesus, you can trust that He has your life in the palm of His hand, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. After nine years of suffering, I can testify to that truth with all my heart.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

-Romans 8:28

There is so much I could talk about regarding my suffering, but I want this post to be short and sweet. My eyes are fixed on Jesus, and I give Him praise for all He has done in my life! He has been so gracious and merciful to me, and I am so thankful to have survived this disease! Thank You, Lord, for Your great love and encouragement that You shower me with every day! Thank You for lifting me up and never giving up on me! Through all the pain and even through times I have been angry and difficult to deal with, You just keep on loving me, and I am forever grateful! You deserve all glory and praise forever and ever!

“Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.

Worship the LORD with gladness;

come before him with joyful songs.

Know that the LORD is God.

It is he who made us, and we are

his;

we are his people, the sheep of his

pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving

and his courts with praise;

give thanks to him and praise his

name.

For the LORD is good and his love

endures forever;

his faithfulness continues through all

generations.”

-Psalm 100:1-5

May my suffering be a testimony of God’s unending love and faithfulness to His people. May He use me for His glory as He sees fit, and may I serve Him in a way that is pleasing to Him! We are only on this earth for a short time, and my prayer is that my life will bring Him praise, honor, and glory. May Your Holy will be done Lord, amen and amen!

I love you all! Thank you for praying for me! Thank you all for the encouragement and love you have shown me during all my suffering. You have blessed me more than I can express in words. God is so very good to us. May we always bless His Holy Name no matter what may come our way! Give it all to the Lord and trust Him for He is good and His love endures forever!

“Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;

his love endures forever.”

-Psalm 107:1

“Give thanks to the LORD, call on his

name;

make known among the nations what

he has done.

Sing to him, sing praise to him;

tell of all his wonderful acts.

Glory in his holy name;

let the hearts of those who seek the

LORD rejoice.

Look to the LORD and his strength;

seek his face always.”

-Psalm 105:1-4

Keep loving Jesus, trust in Him, rest in Him, and never give up!

Grace and peace to you all!

There is a lot going on in this crazy world right now. The devil’s one world government is rising, and we saw many signs of the times in 2020. As 2021 begins, we are moving forward rapidly to the fulfillment of prophecy. Believers in Jesus must stand firm in Him and be ready for His return at any moment. We have great hope in Jesus, and we do not need to be afraid. We must not bow to the new world order! We bow to our Lord and Savior alone!

It is clear in God’s Word that we will not know the exact time or date of the Lord’s return, but we will know the times by the “birth pains” we see. Let us keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and rest in His peace as we see the world falling apart.

“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.”

-Jesus speaking in Matthew 24:36-37

“As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such 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 24:3-8

Indeed, there have been many false Christs appearing, and we see all kinds of wars and rumors of wars, and natural disasters. We see the beast system of the antichrist being pushed as “The Great Reset,” which includes preparations for the mark of the beast with the introduction of Digital ID in the form of a microchip and talk of a one world currency. We see an increase in wickedness and the love of most growing cold. We see historic unrest, riots, and violence. We see many false preachers, false prophets, and false churches, and we have seen many people who claimed to know Jesus turn away from the faith under threat of persecution. And of course, we have been living through the chaos caused by the releasing of the Covid virus. We even see the new world order pushing alien propaganda now because that is how they will lie to explain the Rapture when millions of Christians are snatched up to Heaven by the Lord. None of this has stopped in 2021. In fact, we will most likely continue to see these things increase, and we must stand firm in Christ.

“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.”

-Jesus speaking in Matthew 24:9-14

Jesus was clear that this world will be in absolute chaos before His return. We are most definitely seeing the build up to that time in our time, but do not lose heart. Our redemption is drawing near!

“So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the desert,’ do not go out; or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. For as lighting that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

Immediately after the distress of those days

” ‘the sun will be darkened,

and the moon will not give its light;

the stars will fall from the sky,

and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’

“At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.”

-Jesus speaking in Matthew 24:26-31

“Then Jesus said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.”

-Luke 21:10-11

“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies 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 take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”

-Jesus speaking in Luke 21:25-28

Again, we will not know the exact time or date of these things, but we are living through the birth pains leading up to His return. We must not bow to the devil’s one world communist government! Believers in Jesus belong to Him, and we must stand firm in the truth of His Word by the power of His Holy Spirit!

This is how I preached it on Twitter today:

I will not bow, nor will I give my consent, to this evil that has come upon the earth in our time! I am hated because of my faith in Jesus, and I may even be killed, but I pray for the strength, courage, and wisdom to endure these times in a way that honors, pleases, and glorifies the Lord! My eyes are on Jesus and my head is lifted high because our redemption is drawing near! We have nothing to fear in Jesus. This world is not our home. We have great hope in Jesus and He will come back to rescue us!

“Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord’s own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage each other with these words.”

-1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

“Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be alert and self-controlled. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. But since we belong to the day, let us be self-controlled, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.”

-1 Thessalonians 5:1-11

If you do not know Jesus, please repent and turn to Jesus! Put your faith in Him alone, and He will save your soul!

“That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile–the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

-Romans 10:9-13

May the Lord’s will be done in the times we are living in, Jesus is Lord! Amen, Come, Lord Jesus!

Grace and peace to you all!

Well, we made it! Today is the last day of 2020, praise God! As 2021 approaches, many people are making new years resolutions. The main thing the Lord has put on my heart is forgiveness. As we enter a new year, let us move forward by letting go of past wrongs and living in the fullness of God’s forgiveness. Forgiveness for others and forgiveness for ourselves. May we not ever keep a record of wrongs in our hearts as that will only weigh us down and burden our souls with bitterness, and that is no way to start a new year. We must forgive as Jesus has forgiven us in order to live in the fullness of His peace and love.

Whatever you may have against someone else or even yourself, let it go. Give it to God and pray forgiveness over it all! When you believe in Jesus, God does not keep a record of wrongs on you. He does not count our sins against us. He removes them from us as far as the east is from the west, and remembers them no more! As God’s Word says, love keeps no record of wrongs.

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”

-1 Corinthians 13:4-13

“For as high as the heavens are above

the earth,

so great is his love for those who fear

him;

as far as the east is from the west,

so far has he removed our

transgressions from us.”

-Psalm 103:11-12

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.”

-2 Corinthians 5:17-19

We must forgive each other. Not one of us is better than the other. We have all sinned and made mistakes, and we all need forgiveness. How does God want us to forgive? He wants us to forgive as Christ forgave us! Think about how powerful and complete His forgiveness is, and forgive like Jesus forgave you!

“Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”

-Ephesians 4:31-32

“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”

-Colossians 3:12-14

Let us enter 2021 in the full power of His forgiveness, and live out that glorious forgiveness every day! Sweep away the offenses as God has done for you, and move forward into the new year in His grace, mercy, forgiveness, and love!

“I have swept away your offenses like a

cloud,

your sins like the morning mist.

Return to me,

for I have redeemed you.”

-Isaiah 44:22

“Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?”

Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.”

-Matthew 18:21-22

What Jesus meant by that is we are to forgive an unlimited number of times just as He forgives us. Not one of us has the right to be unforgiving or hold a bitter grudge against anyone. Let us always remember what Jesus truly did for us on that cross, and let us always offer that same love and forgiveness to others.

“When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”

-John 19:30

Thank You, Jesus for forgiving us completely! Please help us love and forgive as You love and forgive us! In your Holy Name, amen!

Wishing you all a very Blessed and Happy New Year!

“Therefore, my brothers, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.”

-Acts 13:38

Grace and peace to you all!

My heart is on fire with passion to preach the Gospel. My prayer is that everyone who reads this blog will come to Jesus and be saved. That is the sole purpose of my calling in Christ. God does not want anyone to perish. He wants everyone to come to repentance, and His Word is clear that everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved!

2020 has been a year of perilous times. Many people are scared of dying, but I want you to know that you do not need to be scared when you know Jesus. There is no fear in His perfect love. We can rest in Him and trust in Him completely to save our souls. The Lord is calling me to share the Gospel with you again today, and it is my great hope that those of you who do not know Jesus will come to Him today.

“If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.”

-1 John 4:15-18

“Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well. This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands. This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world, even our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.”

-1 John 5:1-5

“This is the one who came by water and blood–Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three that testify: the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. We accept man’s testimony, but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.”

-1 John 5:6-12

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the great truth and gift of God’s grace that anyone in the whole world can be saved through faith in Jesus. This gift of God can never be earned by works or any other way. There is only one Way to Heaven, and that is through faith in God’s one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.”

-Jesus speaking in John 3:16-18

“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 3:9

“And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

-Acts 2:21

“Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

-John 14:6

We must understand that we all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. None of us are making it to Heaven on our own. We must agree with God that we are sinful, and we must repent and turn to Jesus.

“But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.”

-Romans 3:21-24

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

-Romans 6:23

There is no condemnation in Jesus Christ. Once you believe in Jesus, your sins are forgiven and you stand reconciled with God, and justified by faith in Jesus. You have peace with God, and you are set free from the bondage of sin and death!

“Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.”

-Romans 5:1-2

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.”

-Romans 8:1-2

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God–not by works, so that no one can boast.”

-Ephesians 2:8-9

There is no boasting in Heaven. We cannot get there on our own because we are sinful and we need a Savior. We must receive the gift of salvation by faith, and Jesus is the only One who ever died to save our souls. God offers this amazing gift of His grace to all mankind. No matter who you are or where you live on this earth, you can be saved through faith in Jesus Christ!

“Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”

-Acts 4:12

“That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile–the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

-Romans 10:9-13

Once you believe in Jesus, God will fill you with His Holy Spirit, which seals you for the day of redemption and empowers you to live a holy life that pleases God. This is a powerful miracle of God, and we must have the Holy Spirit to live righteously.

“And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession–to the praise of his glory.”

-Ephesians 1:13-14

“The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.”

Galatians 5:19-21

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”

-Galatians 5:22-23

As Jesus said regarding the Holy Spirit:

“Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.”

-John 7:38

Once you believe in Jesus, your salvation is eternally secure. We are saved by God’s grace alone through faith in Jesus alone, and nothing can snatch you out of His hand or separate you from His love.

“My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.”

-Jesus speaking in John 10:27-30

“Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty. But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”

-John 6:35-40

“I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.”

-Jesus speaking in John 5:24

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

-Romans 8:38-39

What will you choose? Condemnation, or eternal life? Sin and death, or forgiveness and salvation? I pray with all my heart that you choose eternal life, forgiveness, and the salvation of your soul through faith in Jesus! This most precious gift is being offered to you today, and today is the day of salvation!

“As God’s fellow workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. For he says,

“In the time of my favor I heard you,

and in the day of salvation I helped

you.”

I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.”

-2 Corinthians 6:1-2

Just as it is written in God’s Word:

“From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.”

-Matthew 4:17

“In reply Jesus declared, “I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”

“How can a man be born when he is old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb to be born!”

Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.”

-John 3:3-6

Jesus loves you! Come to Jesus today and be born of the Spirit, and you will receive the salvation of your soul! Jesus Christ is Lord, and there is no other Name by which we must be saved! Through faith in Jesus, all your sins will be forgiven and you will receive eternal life! Choose wisely!

“When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

-John 8:12

Grace and peace to you all in the powerful saving Name of Jesus!

Good morning friends and family. It is just before sunrise here in Florida. Something has been on my heart since Christmas morning, and I need to speak to it. I had a disappointing conversation on Christmas morning, but I didn’t say anything that day because I wasn’t going to let it ruin my family’s Christmas. I am writing this as a warning, so you can be aware of the legalistic Pharisee type “believers” that are out here on WordPress. I have encountered these people before, and I am tired of dealing with them. My hope is that this will encourage you all to live in the grace and peace of Jesus, and not let judgmental hypocritical finger pointers shake your faith.

On Christmas morning I spent time wishing everyone a Merry Christmas as a blessing of peace and joy. 99% of you responded in the same heart of Christ’s love and fellowship. Unfortunately, there is a crew of Pharisee types here on WordPress that are very hateful about Christmas. They like to shame believers in Christ for celebrating Jesus on Christmas, and they misuse Scripture to brow beat us with their condemning judgments. When I first started blogging back in August of 2018, I encountered an entire gaggle of these so called believers and I learned an important lesson from those conversations. I don’t put up with these people. I simply speak the truth to them, then wipe the dust of my feet off and move on.

What really bothers me is that these false preaching haters can possibly hurt younger believers who don’t yet have the experience or knowledge to deal with them. Legalistic people are bullies who speak their condemning comments with a heart full of bitterness. They are easy to spot because they do not speak the truth in love. Most of the time, for some strange reason, they are women. Maybe that is one of the reasons the Apostle Paul said women should be quiet in church. There are a lot of legalistic women who are puffed up in their arrogance and they love running their mouths at strong men who love Jesus. As I said, I don’t put up with them. I do, however, rebuke their hypocritical comments and put them in their place if I have to.

“A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.”

-The Apostle Paul in 1 Timothy 2:11-14

It was truly disappointing that this happened on Christmas morning, of all days, and it’s a good thing that the Lord has made me strong in His grace, and I know exactly who I am in Christ. These people don’t shake my faith. After 24 years walking with Jesus, they are just one more legalistic hypocrite that the Lord always gives me victory over.

After I said “Merry Christmas” to this person who I thought was my sister in Christ, she told me I was deceived by satan and disobedient to the Lord for wishing her that blessing. Think about that for a moment. She judged and condemned me just because I said “Merry Christmas” with great joy in my heart in celebration of my Lord and Savior. She told me God was not amused with disobedience, and she even admitted that her heart doesn’t show much love “when it comes to my brethren being deceived by satan.” She should have stopped right there because that is exactly the problem. She wasn’t speaking truth in love. She was speaking condemnation in legalistic hatred. Good thing I am strong in Christ and I know the difference. A younger believer could have been hurt by her comments.

Here is her comment to me after I wished her a Merry Christmas on her blog:

“I don’t celebrate this admixture pagan/papist/traditions of men “holy” day. As a Christian, neither should you. God is not amused with disobedience. Let me send you a dear sister’s post with scriptures, though not exhaustive, but surely from a loving heart (mine doesn’t seem to show much when it comes to my brethren being deceived by satan; for the Christ of Christ Mass is not our Beloved Lord and Savior Jesus of the Bible).”

Then she left a link to a blog post by one of her legalistic friends as a way to prove why she feels it is okay to make such condemning legalistic comments to her brothers and sisters in Christ. I didn’t visit her friend’s blog because I have dealt with this before and I don’t need to read such trash. This arrogant woman should not presume to tell me what I should or should not be doing as a Christian. She is not above me in the Lord and that is not her place. The Lord did not put up with such Pharisee hypocrites either.

“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men’s bones and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.”

-Jesus speaking in Matthew 23:27-28

Here is my reply to her legalistic comment to me:

“I don’t appreciate your legalistic judgment on me. I am not being deceived by satan or anyone else. I love Jesus with all of my heart. If you don’t know that by now, then you don’t know me at all and you haven’t been listening to what the Lord preaches through me on my blog. I am not a Catholic or a pagan. I am not disobeying the Lord. You might want to check your heart before you go pointing your finger at your brothers and sisters in Christ. I honor, glorify, and worship Jesus on this day and every day. I will not be following your blog anymore. Grace and peace to you.”

Keep in mind, this was Christmas morning. My wife and I had just enjoyed watching our beautiful children open their presents, and we were having a very blessed and joyful day celebrating Jesus and praising Him for all He has done for us. I wasn’t going to let her cruel judgmental comments ruin our day. She replied back with a bunch of other legalistic filth and called me her enemy. I did not respond again. She already called me disobedient, deceived, and displeasing to the Lord. There was no reason to continue the conversation after she called me her enemy too. Like I said, I don’t put up with these mouthy arrogant women. I stood firm in Jesus, and left her with my usual blessing of grace and peace, and that was that. She can go on and on if she wants to. She won’t be hearing from me again. Dust off my feet.

Let me be clear here, if you are legalistic like this arrogant woman, remove yourself from my blog and don’t come back. You will not get anywhere with me. You will just end up breaking yourself when you come against me. My face is set like flint, and I am strong in the grace and knowledge of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who I love with all my heart. You will not shake me, but you will be shaken.

I forgive this woman, and I pray for her that the Lord will open her heart to the truth and fill her heart with love. I pray the Lord removes the bitterness and hatred that has taken root in her heart, and He would heal her from the legalism that binds her.

I will continue to worship, honor, and glorify Jesus on Christmas and every day of the year, and I will continue to bless people in the Name of Jesus by saying Merry Christmas. In a culture that is doing everything they can to remove Jesus from society, I will stand firm in Christ. I will not help the world cancel Jesus. He will never be cancelled! He will reign forever, and every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father! I love Jesus so much I can’t even express it in words. His immense grace, mercy, and forgiveness is flowing in my heart, and I will stand strong in His beautiful love.

If you are a new believer in Jesus, and this has happened to you, don’t let it shake your faith. There are many legalistic false preachers out here, and they do not represent the whole of Christianity. They are hateful and spiteful people who love pointing their fingers at true believers. They cause division and sow discord, and they will reap what they sow. Stand firm in the grace of Jesus Christ. God looks at our hearts and He knows us. There is nothing sinful, disobedient, or deceived about worshiping and honoring Jesus at Christmastime, and there is nothing wrong with saying Merry Christmas.

“You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others. Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.”

-The Apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 2:1-3

May we keep our eyes on Jesus, speak the truth in love, and stand firm and be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus our Lord! He is coming soon!

Grace and peace to you all!

There is a mass attack on the world right now, and all of us are living through it no matter where we are on this earth. The attack is based on two very sinister weapons: lies and fear. All of us have a choice to make. Will we believe the lies and live in fear, or will we believe the truth and live courageously? As for me and my family we will serve the Lord, and we will live in the truth by faith with the courage, strength, discernment, and wisdom that God gives us by the power of His Holy Spirit.

I was going to wait until after Christmas to write this, but it has been heavy on my heart to warn about this now. I have warned about it before, and I will continue to speak the truth about all things. We are being lied to by those in power who control the government, medicine, and the media. Unfortunately, even some believers are falling for these lies, and they are even shaming other believers who won’t fall for the lies like they do.

There was a blog post recently that was disturbing and discouraging, and it really bothered me that a brother in Christ would shame his brothers and sisters in Christ who are standing firm in the truth. He seems to believe the propaganda fear-mongering regarding Covid, and he is all too ready to submit to the new world order and take their dangerous vaccine. He called believers who don’t want to take the vaccine “misled” and said we were deceived by “conspiracies.” Do you know how tired I am of hearing people call me a “conspiracy theorist” just because I understand the prophecies in the Bible, and God shows me the connections to them in our time? How can a person who has the Holy Spirit not see what is going on?!

I have been warning about the coming one world government of the antichrist for many years now. Many of you have read my posts that I wrote back in January and April of this year warning of the very things we are living through right now. If you missed those posts, you can read them here:

A Dire Warning For 2020

A Dire Warning For 2020 Part 2: Coronavirus, Vaccines, and Digital ID

To be clear, I never said the vaccine is the mark of the beast. I said the vaccine is leading to the mark of the beast. The globalists who serve the evil one are conditioning humanity to submit to being enslaved by the mark. The vaccine is poisonous and deadly, and our family is not ever letting anyone shoot that toxic concoction into our bodies!

Recently, four people came down with Bell’s Palsy after receiving the vaccine. Now their faces droop down on one side like they had a stroke. They are also recommending that people who have serious food, medicinal, and latex allergies (like me) not take the vaccine. This is based on reactions people had, including anaphylaxis, where life saving measures had to be taken after they received the vaccine. People who have auto-immune disorders, like my Celiac Disease, are being told to stay away from the vaccine. Easy for me, I wasn’t going to take it anyway. Our kids have Celiac too, so they won’t be taking it. If you think the vaccine is “safe,” you might want to do more research and stop telling people to take it, and stop shaming those who know the truth.

I am not being “misled” or “deceived” by anyone. I am not following any man, or pastor, or website. I follow Jesus Christ, and I am being led by Him in the power of the Holy Spirit. If you have the Holy Spirit, can you not see what is going on?! It is right in our faces now, but people still want to believe lies and mock those of us who speak the truth. They want to shame us and call us “conspiracy-mongers.” Really?! There is nothing conspiracy about Revelation and Daniel. Wake up!

This whole Covid attack is about control and power over humanity. They are enslaving the entire world with it. That vaccine is filled with poisonous metals, aborted baby fetal cells, and allergens that can cause serious injury and even death. I already suffered and survived anaphylactic shock on 4-28-2012, and I don’t ever want to suffer that again (see my post My Lazarus Moment). I am only alive because of the miracle the Lord did to save me that night. I stopped breathing, I was with Jesus, and He put me back in my body in the power of the Holy Spirit. They can keep their sick vaccine! I’m not taking it, and I don’t care what you call me. I live in the truth and I am protecting my family from the devil worshiping new world order.

It’s sad to see believers shaming people who won’t take the vaccine. The brother who wrote the blog post that was disappointing said that people like me are being misled. He listens to the lies of the globalist controlled mainstream media with all their fear-mongering and phony Covid death rates, but I’m the one being misled? Nah, brother. I live in the truth of God’s Holy Word. You are the one being misled. I will take the discernment and wisdom of the Holy Spirit over CNN any day!

You go ahead and call me what you want, and you go ahead and take that horrible vaccine if you want. I pray with all my heart that God protects you and gives you wisdom to change your mind and flee from it! This is all leading to humanity being dominated and controlled like slaves. Whether they use a micro-chip, tattoo bar code, or some other form of Digital ID, the technology for the mark of the beast is here and they are going full throttle with it now. Do you have eyes to see it in the Spirit?

The ones who are deceiving you are the ones who are blindly believing everything the devil worshiping globalists are telling you. The vaccine is not about protecting you and saving your life. They are trying to cull us and depopulate the earth! Go read their first commandment on their evil Georgia Guidestones. They want to depopulate the earth down to 500 million people, and they are deadly serious about fulfilling that wicked goal!

The vaccine will harm your DNA. Now they are even saying that the Covid virus has mutated! Yeah, right! How convenient that it mutates right as they release a vaccine. Don’t you see what is happening? This is never going to end. They want to keep our country and the world locked down forever. This is the greatest wealth transfer theft in the history of the world! They want us shut down, locked down, impoverished, and dead! This was never about Covid!

The death numbers are a lie. As I’ve said before, 250,000 people have NOT died from Covid in the United States. Several months ago they tried to tell us that 160,000 people had died, but the CDC admitted that only 6% of that number actually died from Covid. That is around 10,000 people, which is 10,000 less than the yearly flu deaths. We don’t even need a vaccine for a cold virus that has a 99.9% survival rate! We just need to boost our immune systems naturally and let the virus run it’s course through herd immunity like we are supposed to do with viruses.

This whole thing is one giant lie to control humanity. Please understand this and live in the truth! Protect and love each other, and do not let the new world order forcefully inject, mark, or chip you in any way, shape, or form! The devil is behind this, and his one world government is right at the door.

The Rapture could happen at any moment. Believers in Jesus will be rescued from the coming wrath because we are not appointed to suffer wrath. We are appointed to receive salvation through faith in Jesus! The Tribulation has not started yet, but it is close. We are seeing the lead up to that time right now, and it is fully out in the open now flashing in our faces like a glaring red warning light! Pray for wisdom and discernment to understand the times and be ready for Christ’s return! I listen for that trumpet call every day with great hope and expectation! Jesus will NEVER mislead me! I trust in Him with all my heart!

“and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead–Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.”

-1 Thessalonians 1:10

“For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

-1 Thessalonians 5:9

There is nothing conspiracy about the Book of Revelation when it warns of the coming one world government and the mark of the beast. Why is it that some believers want to point their finger at me and call me a conspiracy theorist just because I can clearly see the connections between what is happening in our time and Bible prophecy? How is it that you don’t see it?! They want to listen to lies from those who want to dominate and kill you, then believe those lies, and then tell you that you are deceived if you don’t believe the lies. We truly are living in the end times where they call evil good and good evil.

I don’t follow false preachers, false prophets, false pastors, false churches, or evil governments and their lying media puppets. My eyes are fixed on Jesus, and He will always lead me in the truth! It is very sad seeing a brother in Christ believe lies that are pumped through the TV 24/7. If he truly has the Holy Spirit, then I know the Lord will open his eyes to the truth and deliver him from evil, and I pray for him. Again, there is nothing conspiracy about what is coming to this earth, and it is not hard to see it now. The globalists use to be able to hide. They can’t anymore. They have been exposed by God, and they are way out in the open admitting their plans right to your face! They even call it “The Great Reset”!

Reset to what, you might ask? What they mean is resetting the world to their new world order, which is a tyrannical one world government based on communism, atheism, and violence. They are not shy about this. They admit it arrogantly and proudly. They want you to bow and submit like a good slave. Wear your mask, take your vaccine, do what your told, and go off and die. They look at us like cockroaches to be smashed under foot. This is a great culling, and the vaccine is an insidious step to their plan of eventually enslaving humanity with a “mark” that you cannot “buy or sell” without.

“He was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.

This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666.”

-Revelation 13:15-18

Again, let me be clear, the vaccine is NOT the mark of the beast, and I never said it was. The mark is coming, and the vaccine is leading to it. I will not read or follow blogs that blindly advise people to bow down and take the vaccine. I will not listen to those false preachers who shame truth speakers like me. Their folly is obvious and I stay far away from them. Christians who don’t want to take the vaccine because they are stirred up and warned by the Holy Spirit don’t have anything to be ashamed of, and don’t let anybody shame you!

Follow Jesus and listen to Him. Read the prophecies for yourself. Discern the times in the wisdom and understanding God gives you, and be at peace in Him. The times are at hand and our redemption is drawing near! Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and trust Him! Do not take that sickening vaccine, and don’t let them control you with lies and fear. God did not give us a Spirit of fear! He gave us a Spirit of love, power, and self-discipline! Do not listen to the fear-mongering liars; follow Jesus! Choose faith over fear!

“For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.”

-2 Timothy 1:7

If you don’t know Jesus, now is the time to receive Him by faith! Today is the day of salvation! Jesus will forgive all your sins and save your soul, and everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved!

“That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile–the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

-Romans 10:9-13

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

-Jesus speaking in John 3:16

Jesus will see us through to the very end, and He will never leave us nor forsake us. He will come to take us home just as He promised! Live in the truth and do not be afraid! Jesus Christ is Lord!

Grace and peace to you all!

“I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.”

-Jesus speaking in John 14:18-21
