"How do you view God?  In a desert there's two types of birds:  there's vultures and there's hummingbirds.  One lives off dead carcasses, rotting meat.  The other lives off the beautiful, sweet nectar in a particular desert plant.  In the same desert, they both find what they're looking for."

.... How sad is this? .. Guess he, like many other 'false' teachers of our day, have forgotten things like what Muhammad teaches .. like Jesus ISN'T the Son of God, and that they kill people if they refuse to convert. .. Doesn't sound like the same God Jesus talked about to me. ........ How can these so-called men of God fall for such nonsense? ... I can tell you one reason ... 'adjust' to the times .. 'compromise' whatever is necessary so as to stay popular and 'relevant' .. and keep the seats and collection plates filled! ...

                    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the predictions that Christ made almost 2000 years ago, He accurately portrayed the progress in the present age. ... In verses 4-14 of Matthew 24 for example, He predicted at least nine distinctive features of the period:
1) false christs (vv. 4-5);  2) wars & rumors of wars (vv. 6-7);  3) famines (v.7);  4) pestilence (v. 7, KJV);  5) earthquakes (v. 7);  6) many martyrs (vv. 8-10);  7) false prophets (v. 11);  8) increase in wickedness with love growing cold (v. 12);  9) worldwide preaching of the Gospel of the kingdom (vv. 13-14) .... (Also see Luke 21:8-24, which records similar prophecies) .....

As we view the news headlines each week, do we see these things occurring? ... Do we see the prophecies of our Savior coming true? ..... Simply, there is absolutely no doubt about it ... and this week is no exception. ... So what is the purpose for showing proof of these signs each week? ... To convince as many people as possible to the fact that we are in the final days of the Church age and that time is short. ... Hopefully, this will motivate each of us to tell as many as we can about the saving grace of Jesus, and also to prove to them the absolute truth of Christ's teachings!  .... Hopefully, each of you will be one of those who is motivated by this proof .....

OK ... end of this brief sermon .... but hey, you all know this stuff riles me up! .... I just get excited when the absolute proof of Jesus' soon return keeps jumping out at us! ..... Hallelujah! ...... Know that I am praying for each of you constantly and will continue to do so for as long as I can. ...  I pray you are doing the same for me ..... so ..

Until next time,
