    Who's fooling who?

    When you start making prophecies and setting dates and further pronounce doom on those who do not follow you, ... you have gone beyond just being a Bible Student. Your prophecies are your own private interpretations which is OK for a start, but they should be studied with other CREDITABLE students of prophecy. If others can come to a similar conclusion, you MIGHT be on to something. If none agree, then keep them to yourself. But I see no evidence you have done that. (FWIW, I keep a number of things to myself that I have discovered in Scripture. Some because they are not important to salvation and others I just feel bound to not speak of them. I suspect that many have private and not germane to the immediate needs of the gospel that they keep to themselves.) Interpretation of prophecies in the early SDA church, along with other doctrinal issues, came by way of group study. It is true that some came to a startling conclusion, but then it was group verified in serious Bible study. (For example, Crozier's epiphany of the heavenly scene of the investigative judgement.) Also, keep in mind that in this day and age, doctrines that deceive will come dime a dozen inspired by the dark side. You should be looking for signs that you might be following the dark side and you probably won't be able to figure out that for yourself. Even John the Revelator fell to the ground to worship an angel, before being told to get on his feet. When Satan impersonates Jesus, the whole world (except the very elect) will fall to the ground to worship him. This is likely the delusion that will deceive the whole world. And that is not far away. So, stop being obsessed with Mike Pence and start following Michael the Prince (aka Jesus).

    Is the Virus a sign of the End?

    Forgive me everyone I saw too late a lot of mistakes so I am sending it again: This is what was stated by the Adventist Review: Pestilences will be signs of the times, but only when persecution begins. The book of Revelation is full of “plagues.” It mentions a “great and marvelous sign: seven angels with the seven last plagues” (Rev. 15:1). The first plague is described in these words: “Ugly, festering sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image” (Rev. 16:2). So pestilences (and presumably pandemics) will apparently stress the world beyond its limits at the very end, to the point that “there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world” (Matt. 24:21). The coronavirus cannot count as a sign of the end, so far. EGW Visions and many of her remarks she made that were Biblical, I find many have been overlooked. Yet she made it clear that many things would be understood at the end of time or close to YAHSHUA'S coming. Did she understand everything she wrote, and did she write errors based on what she believed? Yes, and she made that very clear in TM p. 105 that she was infallible, just before her death. She always made it clear to take the Bible, but so many times we don't; instead, we listen to leaders just like IsraEL did in their days. I find it interested that she said this: I sit a queen, and shall see no sorrow;'' as lovely then, and deeming herself as secure in Heaven's favor, as when, ages before, the royal minstrel sung, "Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is :Mount Zion, ... the city of the great King." Jesus, looking down to the last generation, saw the world involved in a deception similar to that which caused the destruction of Jerusalem. The great sin of the Jews was their rejection of Christ; the great sin of the Christian world would be their rejection of the law of God, the foundation of His government in heaven and earth. His words were not then fully understood ; but their meaning was to he unfolded as His people should need the instruction therein given. The prophecy which He uttered was twofold in its meaning: while foreshadowing the destruction of Jerusalem, it prefigured also the terrors of the last great day. GC p. 17, 22, 25 (Pdf) When reading Matthew Chapter 24, we realize that the disciples asked two questions; the coming destruction of the Temple and when the end time would be. Now, we also must state that originally Matthew wrote this in ancient Hebrew or Aramaic and not Greek. The KJV Scholars used Chapters when the Scriptures was continuing with the same thought! And, if you notice the Greek manuscripts, the letters are running together. So, with that being said, when we go over these Scriptures, we must carefully see the ones that deal with the destruction of the Temple, then the ones for the end time, that are separate and the Scriptures that applies to both of them! My problem with the Adventist Review is that it stated; "Pestilences will be signs of the times, but only when persecution begins." Sad that this is an Adventist major belief that during the Time of Trouble the faithful will be persecuted. Well, that is not what the Bible states at all. In both Daniel and Revelation (keep in mind they are actually one Book and the latter part of the book is more in depth. We need to combine these Scriptures together); Dan 12:1-3 clearly states YAHSHUA called by HIS CHIEF TITLE MICHAEL stands up and there will be a Time of Trouble. Then two types of people will be resurrected at this time, but we will concentrate on the ones who will come up to have everlasting life! The next Scriptures that follow describes the wise teachers shall shine like the firmament, turning many like the stars to righteousness. Three Chapters in Revelation 11, 14, 7 explain this in detail, along with Mat Chapters 25! If the 144,000 are sealed why do they need to be persecuted or have pestilence to be brought on them? These people will be seal; before the Time of Trouble. They are empowered with THE SPIRIT that Elijah had! If you follow all of the individuals that YAHWEH used in the OT demonstrating HIS WRATH and HIS POWER, it would be even more so during the Time of Trouble. By the way who is in Trouble? Why the wicked of course not the righteous. Whose WRATH is bringing on the Time of Trouble? And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from THE FACE of HIM that sitteth on the Throne, and from THE WRATH of THE LAMB: For the Great Day of HIS WRATH is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev 6:14-17 Now, I see at this time only THE WRATH of THE LAMB which is YAHSHUA and when is this wrath? And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. Rev 8:5, 6 I will say it again, according to the Scriptures the 7 Trumpets are THE WRATH of THE LAMB and the 7 last plagues are THE WRATH of THE FATHER! And I heard A GREAT VOICE out of the Temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of THE WRATH of ELOHIYM upon the earth. Rev 16:1 During THE WRATH of THE LAMB, THE FATHER is heard stating to all of the evil angels that are release from prison these words: And it had Commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of ELOHIYM in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. Rev 9:4 -6 How plain is that? Only those who do not have the seal of THE FATHER will be persecuted or tormented but they also cannot be killed yet! If you look to Rev Chapter 8; four things happen to the earth prior to this Chapter. Then Chapter 11 tells that a person who is a Gentile (an Indo European Gen10:5, remember Nimrod was a Cushite and he too ruled the earth and went against YAHWEH!), who Rev Chapter 17:1 states clearly of the whore and not the beast. She is riding the beast! We know that is the Catholic Church and she during the Time of Trouble is in power against YAHWEH. She is the one that trample the truth underground and the two Witnesses is the Bible! The people who will use the truth found in the Bible are the wise virgins who will shut up the rain; just like Elijah did! They will have this power. They will bring down the first four Trumpets of WRATH from THE LAMB by THE POWER of THE HOLY SPIRIT just like Elijah! There will be no persecution of the saints but only the wicked and the 144,000 will gather in the harvest of souls as these events take place end of story! Conclusion: We are at the beginning of Sorrow and Matt 24:11-14 deals with both prophecies, verse 15 is dealing now and just before the Time of Trouble begins after it begins this verse makes it clear you must understand. Understand in Dan 12:11 and 2 Th Chapter 2 is not the whore but the beast! He will destroy Jerusalem which is Babylon. Notice, EGW quotes from Rev 18:7 and she always give the Scriptures she quotes but, this one is missing! I wonder why? She like I said also said that this Queen Jerusalem has become Babylon! The papacy will be destroyed by the one she led, the scarlet cover beast! It is all there just read it for yourself! This pestilence is happening now because sin has about played out! It appears many of us just do not want to accept the facts if it hits us on our noses. We have a global Climate problem. The earth is dying, and it cannot be fix! Look at what is going on in the White House and lives are at stake! It is a shame and you all know it! PEOPLE ARE DYING! Time is coming so fast to an end that if you blink it might be too late!! What on earth do YAHWEH HAVE TO DO TO WAKE UP HIS PEOPLE to show you what time it is? We will believe everything and everyone, but the Bible and THE FATHER has had enough! We act just like those that Elijah had to prove when fire came down from Heaven and lapped everything up! Wicked people just will not listen, and this planet is on its way out! I pray we all stop pondering and get ready! It is time to humble ourselves and we need to pray, confess, change and obey ALL of HIS Commandments, Laws, Judgments and Statutes. Then we will understand and know the Testimony of YAHSHUA who THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY is! Please, we need serious prayer to see the truth and blessings to all!

    Trivia

    5 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Microsoft_2 On April 4, 1975, Microsoft was founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Here are 5 things you didn’t know about the goliath tech company started by two software geeks... It Wasn’t the First Time Gates and Allen Worked Together Bill Gates and Paul Allen, the co-founders of Microsoft, worked together to form a business called Traf-O-Data while they were still in high school in Seattle. This company counted vehicles from passing traffic for traffic engineers. Although their company wasn’t a huge success, it helped them in developing Microsoft because of their work using microprocessors and developing software to count cars. They Originally Called The Company Micro-soft Gates was attending Harvard and Allen was a student at Washington State University when they founded Microsoft in 1975, with Gates as the new company's CEO. They originally called the company Micro-soft, a combination of abbreviations for "microcomputer" and "software." The hyphen wasn’t removed until 1981, two years after the technology company moved its headquarters to Bellevue, Washington. M&Ms are a Microsoft Tradition Softies, the people who work for Microsoft, are expected to celebrate their work anniversaries with M&Ms. At each anniversary of their employment, they are supposed to bring one pound of the tasty chocolate candies to share with co-workers for the number of years they have worked there. Bill Gates became a part-timer in 2006 to work for his foundation, otherwise, he would have needed to bring in 31 pounds of M&Ms for his anniversary but, of course, would have had no problem affording it. Apple Would Have Gone Under if it Wasn’t For Microsoft Apple was nearing bankruptcy in 1997 when Bill Gates and Microsoft came along on a white charger to save the day. Microsoft invested $150 million in the company and allowed Apple to use Microsoft Office without charge on the Mac PCs. It was also at this time that Microsoft was facing possible charges by the Justice Department for violating the Sherman Act. This law prohibits the stifling the competition and establishment of a monopoly. Therefore, this helping hand probably benefited both companies. People Who Invested in Microsoft Early on Made a Bundle It may have been considered a risky venture to have invested in Microsoft back in the 1980s because the company was fairly new. However, investors who bought the stock in March 1986 paid only $21 per share. Today, that one share would be worth around $158 dollars. Someone who invested $1,000 in Microsoft on the day of its initial public offering would have more than $1.6 million to show for it today when price appreciation and dividends are calculated.

    Is the Virus a sign of the End?

    Whether or not this virus is a "sign of the end", I believe it is at least the "beginning of sorrows" or "birth pangs". The planet has changed so much in the past month that I don't think the world will ever be the same. The next few weeks will tell. I expect people to continue to get sick in increasing numbers. The equity markets of the world will continue to fall. Unemployment in North America may reach as high as 35% - 40%.A former British PM has suggested that we form a "temporary" world government to better manage this disease. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a huge effort to get rid of all cash because it is so filthy and spreads the corona virus and other diseases. The division between good and evil will widen. a famous SDA author once said the final events will be rapid ones. Jesus is coming soon!
