Global Warming, Or Global Sin?

posted by PrayerWarrior

The scientists of this day and age say that we, Man, have caused the issues that are making our earth go crazy. I say not so. You see the science of today is not truth. The science of yester year speaks of a whole different thing. When I was going to school we were taught that God put us here,and that God made the trees,make oxygen to feed us,and our carbon dioxide that we expel, with our every outward breath,feeds the trees what they need. It has been proven by a wonderful scientist of meteorology, at MIT, Richard S Lindzen, that global warming is nothing to us. That trees actually flourish in a rich carbon dioxide atmosphere. Plants need it to grow well, and they need heat to grow well.

Here is the paper he did on it. http://www.cato.org/pubs/regulation/regv15n2/reg15n2g.html

So a little extra heat does not hurt anything,especially not the planet. It is actually good for it. And the degrees it has gone up at all,has been so minuscule as to be of no effect to anything. Least of all the ice in the arctic regions. Such as the North pole,and the south pole.

No my friends,our planets problem are the result of the sin that is on it. Remember that the earth is under the curse of sin. Not only did man fall with Adam’s sin but the earth itself was affected. The Bible says that the world “groans and labors in birth pangs” (Ro. 8:22). The result is the actual shifting of the earth that produces natural disasters. The fact is, our planet is not yet restored. We look toward Christ’s coming rule, when there will be “new heavens and a new earth” (2 Pe. 3:13).

By the time the Millennial kingdom comes,where Christ will rule,and we who have been called His own have been changed into immortal beings without sin, The bible tells us in Revelation,that every mountain will be not one mountain left,and not one island will be found in the seas. Revelation 16:20 And every island disappeared, and all the mountains were leveled. This is due to a world wide earth quake. The quakes we are seeing now,is merely the beginning. There are much much more to come,and each getting worse than the last. Imagine the biggest quake ever recorded in 1960,was in Chile and it was a 9.5 magnitude. That had to have been absolutely crazy.

Here are the statistics gathered in the parts of the earth that were affected by this particular earth quake. Approximately 1,655 killed, 3,000 injured, 2,000,000 homeless, and $550 million damage in southern Chile; tsunami caused 61 deaths, $75 million damage in Hawaii; 138 deaths and $50 million damage in Japan; 32 dead and missing in the Philippines; and $500,000 damage to the west coast of the United States.

But the ones that are going to be coming, will be bigger, and more places will get them, until the world wide quake, that is just before the day of the Lord. There is one earthquake that speaks of every mountain being moved out of it’s place, and every island being moved out of it’s place. Not gone, just removed from their natural place. That is Revelation 6:14 at the 6th seal being opened. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.

Why does God allow natural disasters in the world like earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, typhoons, landslides and other natural disasters? The end of 2004 Asian tsunami, Hurricane Katrina in 2005 in south-eastern United States of America, and landslides in the Philippines in 2006 forced many people to doubt God’s goodness. Sadly, those natural disasters are often called action of God, but never of grace to God not for years, decades or even centuries of peaceful weather. God created the universe and the laws of nature (Genesis 1:1). Most natural disasters are a result of these laws. Hurricanes, typhoons, and tornadoes are the result of different weather conditions. Earthquakes are the result of changes in the crust of the earth. Tsunami problems caused by an undersea earthquake.

The Bible proclaims that Jesus Christ has authority over all of nature (Colossians 1:16-17). Could God prevent natural disasters? Absolutely! Does God sometimes influence the weather? Yes, see Deuteronomy 11:17 and James 5:17. Does God sometimes cause natural disasters, as punishment for sin? Yes, see Numbers 16:30-34. The Book of Revelation describes the many events that could be called specifically as acts of God (Revelation chapters 6, 8 and 16).Is every disaster a punishment from God? Absolutely not.

But Revelation chapters 6-14 are not God’s wrath. I do not want you to be confused about that.Revelation 11:18 says The nations were angry; and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name, both small and great–and for destroying those who destroy the earth.” That does not say before the tribulation comes I will remove you. No to me, that says, after the seventh trumpet has sounded, then it is time to reward and judge your servants. I will explain this more in other articles to come. For now please do not be afraid to study and learn for yourselves all of this,always praying for the Holy Spirit to give you eyes to see, and ears to hear what the Spirit says is the truth.

In the same way as God allows evil people to commit acts of evil, God gives the land to show the effects of sin on creation. Romans 8:19-21 tells us, “For the creature looks forward to revealing of the sons of God, 20 because of that the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by the will of him who subjected it, in hopes 21 because the creature itself shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of God’s children . The fall of humanity affect everything including the universe in which we live. Sin is the ultimate cause of natural disasters, as well as the cause of death, disease and suffering.

So we are back where we started. We can understand why there are disasters. The fact that we do not understand is why God allows them to take place. Why does God allow 225,000 people die in Asia? Why did God allow Hurricane Katrina to destroy the homes of hundreds of thousands of people? We know that God is good! Many amazing wonders in cases of natural disasters have taken place – to prevent further deaths. Natural disasters are the cause of millions of people to reconsider their priorities in life. Hundreds of millions of dollars sent to help people who suffer. Christian organizations have the opportunity to help, serve, and pray – and to bring people to faith in Christ! God can, and does extract good out of terrible tragedies (Romans 8:28).

Those who wish to not believe in God and the bible,are the ones who just keep piling on the lies. Saying that well since there is no God we the people of this planet must be the cause of the natural disasters. Scientists who are also believers in God are shunned to the point of being black balled from jobs, and even ridiculed right out of their professions. God himself said all these things would come to pass, and here we are in the thick of things.

The planet was not meant to last for eternity. It is going to be cleaned up and very beautiful during the thousand years reign of Christ. But then God’s plan is to burn it all up after the judgment, and make a brand new earth. We do not owe the earth anything. It is not our object of worship. God is!!

2Pe 3:7,10-12: “But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist have been stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men… But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up. Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire!”

“Behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I will create, for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight and its people a joy. I will rejoice over Jerusalem and take delight in my people; the sound of weeping and of crying will be heard in it no more” (Isa 65:17-19). See we have a new Heaven and a new earth. I personally think the heavens Peter refers to, is the first heaven, that being the atmosphere around the earth that protects it. I hope that most of you know already that there are three levels to the heavens.

In closing all you who believe in God, and believe the word to be absolute truth,cannot in good conscience believe what earthly leaders are telling you. There is no such thing as global warming to the nth degree our world leaders would have you believe. Our world is not being harmed by us, and or anything we are doing. We cannot save this planet. If we believed what the world leaders are telling us,and we really were to make a difference at all,we would have to stop driving cars. Stop using electricity,we would have to stop doing anything at all other than farming, and even then the experts who believe in this bunk, still insist we could not change anything, after 100 years of not using any of the earths resources, that God Himself put here for our use and consumption.

Don’t be fooled you of God’s children. This is a huge lie to put ownership on you and your children. This is a disgusting power grab,a way for them to gain control of us all. Let us not make it so easy on them to take us over. Let us pray for wisdom and knowledge to be given us. Let us study our words to show ourselves approved. There is coming a day and it is not so far away where it is going to be impossible to read the word of the Lord and the Lord tells us a few different places in the bible,that there is a famine for the word coming.I personally am going to be hiding away some bibles in different spots,in as many different areas as I possibly can. I have one of the verses I spoke of above here for you. here for you.

Amos 8:10 I will turn your religious feasts into mourning and all your singing into weeping. I will make all of you wear sackcloth and shave your heads. I will make that time like mourning for an only son and the end of it like a bitter day. 11″The days are coming,” declares the Sovereign LORD, “when I will send a famine through the land– not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD. 12Men will stagger from sea to sea and wander from north to east, searching for the word of the LORD, but they will not find it.

May the good Lord watch over you and protect ,you and your families. May He fill you with desire to know His word,and be prepared for all that is coming upon this earth.

The Study Of The End Of The Age = Eschatology

posted by PrayerWarrior

What is Eschatology?
How does it affect every one in the world?
Why should we study the end of things?
When people say the end of the world, they are really basically misunderstanding what the end times means. It will not be the end of the world. It will be the end of the way things have been for nearly 6,000 years. It will be Christ our Messiah,coming to rule the world, a thousand years of peace and prosperity. A wonderful life, that people the world over, wish it was right now. In fact the people who are involved in trying to make the new world order, the one world government are in fact, hoping to achieve this utopia, where there is no crime no sick people, only wealthy, healthy, people. The sad fact is, it can never be done without God.

Eschatology is the study of end times prophecies in the bible. It is a deep look at what is coming, and how it will all start and end. This is the study of the ultimate destiny of human kind. The study of the final confrontation between the forces of good versus evil, and the establishment of a realm of deliverance from suffering and sin based on the restoration of an original world of goodness. There are many forms of Eschatology,such as the Jewish, the Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist,and of course Christian. I pay attention to the Jewish,and the Christian,with a bit of study on the Muslim end times study as well.

I am not in any way shape or form a Muslim,but being aware of the biggest enemy of the Christian religions eschatological views, is quite important. It parallels ours (Christian) so very well. Where we have our savior coming back to the earth, at the end of the whole thing, with the culmination of Armageddon. The Muslims expect their messiah to come as the twelfth Imam or the Mahdi, at the beginning of troubles. They believe they must create Chaos on the earth, to usher in their messiah. While our beliefs are, we must tell the whole world of Jesus Christ, and then the bad times come, then the taking away of those who are truly Christs own.

That is called the rapture to most people. There is no such word in the bible as rapture. It is either called harpazzo the Greek word, which means caught up, or parusia, another Greek word which means, to be present with,such as being present with the Lord. Then comes the battle of Armageddon, in which all the armies of the world come together at the valley of Meggido, to come against Israel, and that is when the Lord steps in.

There is a great need today to study eschatology (the doctrine of future things) as God’s Word unfolds before our very eyes. There are many Christians today who know very little about God’s plans for the here-and-now, and they know even less about God’s plans for their future. The Scriptures give several reasons why the study of eschatology is profitable for us. First of all it is for the purity in the believer’s life 1 John 3:3. It comforts the believer in their time of bereavement 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Thirdly, the study of eschatology gives us a divine viewpoint in our outlook 2 Corinthians 4:16-18. And finally, study produces motivation for the believer’s faithful service 2 Timothy 4:7-8.

Now Matthew chapter 24 is the best New Testament start to finish explanation of the end times, by Christ to His disciples. The book of Revelation is the explanation of what will be happening through the tribulation period into the millennial kingdom,which is when Christ will reign on earth with His elect or saints,which are those of us who are Christs own. We have been chosen by God to receive salvation,and we have accepted the free gift of God’s grace for the forgiveness of our sins. The bible tells us many have been called but few are chosen. Matthew 22:14.

Here is a link to be able to read all of Matthew chapter 24 for yourselves. If the link is not click able please copy and paste into your browser. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2024&version=AMP
I would ask that you who read that chapter, would pay close attention to the words of Jesus in verse 29 when it says AFTER those days of tribulation. Too many people do not seem to see those words,or they disregard them.

The end times are through out the entire bible, but there are some that are much deeper involved in the study, of end of the age studies than others. In the Old Testament the book of Jeremiah,the book of Daniel,the book of Isaiah,the book of Ezekiel,the book of Amos and Joel and Zechariah ,Malachi and more. It is amazing to study these prophecies, and then watch the world news, at least world news that tell you the truth, and do not hide information from you. Watching the news these days is like reading your bible,and suddenly getting an understanding you never understood before. Seeing the very steps that are being taken world wide, to bring us to the end of the age.

The New Testament, has many prophecies of the end of the age too. It is exciting to this writer to read and get understanding, of what the Lord is telling us. The preparations He has set in His Word for us. But to get the blessings that are coming in the end of the age, you must be one of Christs own. To become one of Christs called ones, or chosen ones, we must become born again in order to receive the promises in the Word of God.

Here is the prayer you say to become born again. No one needs to know you said this prayer, but eventually the changes that take place in you are going to show up, but by then you will be proud to let the world know you are one of Christs.

“Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”

I’ve Prayed It; Now What? If you’ve prayed this prayer of salvation with true conviction and heart, you are now a follower of Jesus. This is a fact, whether or not you feel any different. Religious systems may have led you to believe that you should feel something – a warm glow, a tingle, or some other mystical experience. The fact is, you may, or you may not. If you have prayed the prayer of salvation and meant it, you are now a follower of Jesus. The Bible tells us “that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)

Welcome to the family of God! I encourage you now to find a local church where you can be baptized and grow in the knowledge of God through His Word, the Bible.

As we go along, my hope is that you will understand very well the end times prophecies. May God Bless and watch over you. May the Lord guide you in wisdom and knowledge,and grow you into a strong and joy filled Christian.
Love in Christ, Tammy

What is my purpose?

posted by PrayerWarrior

Have you ever asked this question,”What is my purpose”? Ask it no more, the answer has been in your bible all along.
Your purpose cannot be found inside yourself for one thing.You must realize that you were purposed before the foundations of the earth were layed out. God purposed you to love you. Meaning God made you on purpose because he wanted to love you and have you love him in return.
Your job is not your purpose,nor is parenting ,though this could be a part of God’s plan for your life,it is not your purpose.

“He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to  adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.” Ephesians 1:4-6
“Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered….”  John 15:4-6

“In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory. “  Ephesians 1:11-12
that His people would love Him most of all,This is what we are purposed for. To love Him as well as to be loved by him.
“…’you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.” Mark 12:29
“If you love Me, keep My commandments.”  John 14:15
“He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” John 14:20-21
“If  you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.”  John 15:10-11

-  that we love each other as He has loved us (that means demonstrating God’s love to each other, not conforming to popular culture in order to please each other)

This is his plan for us, once we have realized our purpose now we can become part of his plan.

“…the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.” John 17:22-23
“Him we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus. To this end I labor….” Colossians  1:28, 29
“Be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.”   1 Peter 3:8-9
“You, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.  For  all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”  Galatians 5:13-14

Always be aware there are false teachers out there do not be deceived.
“…charge some that they teach no other doctrine, nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith. Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk, desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.”  1 Timothy 1:3-7

Our purpose is not, no matter how much the world tells you,to gain all the goods of the earth,meaning we are not going to win if we have the most toys. Our purpose is not to be popular among men  we are to be as aliens among the people of earth. Not conforming to mans ways but to God’s ways.  “If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.”  Colossians 3:1-4
“He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.”  2 Corinthians 5:15
We must die to self and daily pick up our cross.
“…unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain. He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also….
“Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour. Father, glorify Your name.” John 12:23-28

Once our purpose is realised we are to repent and turn from darkness to the Light
“Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.   For the promise is to you and  to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” Acts 2:38-39
that we follow Him and share His suffering.

We will suffer somethings at some time, probably not in  the far future for our belief and our love of Christ. Do not fear that,the Lord will sustain you and reward you for your endurance in the end.
“For to you  it has been granted on behalf of Christ,  not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake…”  Philippians 1:29
“For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps: ‘Who committed no sin, nor was deceit found in His mouth;’ who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously.” 1 Peter 2:20-22
do not be ashamed of  the testimony of our Lord, nor of me  His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling…. For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day.” 2 Timothy 1:8-12
“…the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me. But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.” Acts 20:24

And finally, “‘God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.’ Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.”  1 Peter 5:5 If you do not know how to humble yourself, which honestly was my hardest point when I was not yet saved,then pray tell God you are seeking him.Matthew 7:7
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: If you seek him with all your heart he is faithful to manifest himself to you.If you knock upon His door in heart felt search, He will open the door to you. No matter your sins or transgressions He will grant you pardon and allow you entrance to His Kingdom.

“Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:  that  the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places….”   Ephesians 1:15-20

Thats right friends and brothers and sisters I am pointing my finger at YOU!!!!
God Loves you and desires a wonderful and close relationship with you no matter your religion or past beliefs. God’s purpose for creating YOU! was simply, to love you. When Jesus was on the cross taking on the sins of the world, he thought about YOU!!!!
love in CHRIST JESUS, Prayer Warrior/Tammy
