Our Churches are Failing Us.

YouTube - End Times - The Rapture

I hoped and figured that someone who post an article that went along with my own speculations and mind sets!  And doesn't the book of Acts mirror some of these ideas?  Guess I will read that book again.  But we can guess that some churches will question the need to hold  smaller study groups and  steal their thunder.. lol, but if they are not doing the Bible job right, circumvent them and cut off their money!!  That should fire them up even more!  I figure that God will bless anyone who is sincere in seeking out His Word for info and edification.  PTL.  We ought to all be doing that on our own.

Well, maybe war will be put off for a while in the case of Israel and her Muslim/ Islamic neighbors who really want to erase Israel from the earth.  Remember, the USA is giving plenty of money to Israel's enemies all the time and even training those nasty folks who to fight.. along with other nations who hate the "apple of God's eye."  I can't wait for the Lord to 'flex His muscles and bare His swift sword !'  Then I am going to celebrate and dance in the street.

Help! Our Churches Are Failing Us!

Q. What does a person do that lives in a small town that doesn’t have a church that teaches the truth?  I have a group of 5 friends that all go to different churches and we all are all experiencing the same thing.  The Bible is either watered down, false doctrine is preached, or busy things are done that completely leave out the Word.  The Bible says that we are not to forsake the assembling together.  We meet and study God’s Word in our homes and still go to church but leave empty, mad, and confused. We long to hear God’s Word but it is not to be found.  Have you any suggestions to our situation?

A. I suggest you and your friends stop attending church and structure your  Bible Study group so it can function as a home church.  A number of really good preachers/teachers have audio and video studies that you can use to meet your need for hearing God’s word.   You can augment them with group discussions and prayer.  This would be a lot more fulfilling for you and would be consistent with the Bible’s advice that we not forsake the assembling together.

Case in Point.

CASE IN POINT:    Here is an older pic of pastor Wayne Bielgard, from RBC, with my wife, Sharon.


As we all know, there are myriads of "good" causes that we can debate, get involved with, champion, support, donate, etc, etc, and all is well.  The few statements, part my my personal  'base camp'/ mind set, and foundation/ principle seat of understanding/ wisdom, is:  that I ought to seek the main Priority of what the Bible says:  Sanctify God's holy name, seek Him always, and share the GOSPEL.  I love to tie things up in a simple bow, because most of the Bible is written on a 5th grade level and for the common man to understand.... if you have the Holy Spirit to help and guide you.  However, "The wisdom of the world is foolishness with God." ~ 1 Cor. 3:19.  Those who CLAIM to be righteous and cloak themselves with the buzz word, "Christian" will be found out and laid  naked for all to see in the 'End Times.'  I am NOT talking about past sins that we all forgiven when we first confessed Jesus and asked for forgiveness when we were Saved.   It's even hard for me to plan ahead too far, because I feel that things will shortly start rolling with all speed.  And Hey!-- How about the Prez looking to steal more of Israel's property/ land when they barely have enough buffers now to defend-- AGAINST MOST OF THE WORLD??  Those politicians don't know that they are playing with open cans of gas and loaded guns!  

Friends, this only tells me one thing, hunker down, pray and keep sharing the Gospel with what ever strength we have left.  FORGET everything else!  In the near future, if we pay our bills and keep some food on the table, we will be doing just fine, while other parts of the world starve because of greedy, powerful rulers and very poor policies.  Actually, I think that we [America] might be the "last man standing."

I constantly have to readjust my own thinking and slap my face with Aqua Velva, but being Saved means that the Spirit will poke us when we run arye... and off course.  So, guys and gals, brothers and sisters, the usual politicking will certainly side track many of us, stealing precious time to study and pray. But realistically, a new different Prez would be nice-- but will he or she really change things so that we don't fall like Greece, Ireland, Iceland, Spain, etc.?  Only God can straighten things out, and right now-- ISRAEL IS THE CENTER OF THE WORLD!  What could happen there any time now, will change the whole world in a large way.  But don't take my humble work for it-- go read it for yourself.  Many Christians believe that the Rapture could come shortly after God wins the next war for Israel. 

Good friends from church, Christine and Patrick Busler are making another Lasagna for me this week end... Thank you very much!  And my sister, Linda, will be my "next of kin." --If i don't make it thru surgery, and that's OK with me too. And all the ladies I contact near by who just don't have the time to JUST chat or enjoy a steak dinner with me... I think that God is sending me a distinct message to avoid such kind-- that perhaps the end IS that close... so i should not dirty myself...  sorry if I offend some folks, but now is the time when I need someone to talk to in person, in my area...Wisconsin.  Lord knows I have enough on my plate now...
And in all probability, I prob won't go in for surgery for Left knee for a few weeks or even months, IMHO... so save your prayers for others who are in worse shape than I am.  I will keep you all in touch with my progress.


Thank you-- Be safe.

I found this quite interesting and now on my next trip to Barnes & Nobel will make "An American Amnesia" my next purchase.
