I just love to read this fine lady's views and rock solid Bible verses that only lay things on the line!! I hope that you all enjoy it too. I think the last part pretty well sums it all up for US:
Do not despair: The God who controls all of Heaven and earth said, "The nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance. All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing" (Isaiah 40:15, 17).
God is still keeping count of the hairs on our heads. He is still counting the sparrows that fall, still hearing petitions before they are asked, and still answering before being called. He is still giving abundantly more than we can ask or think. So why let the facts on the ground throw us? He has everything under control.
God sits in the Heavens and laughs at foolish, evil mankind (Psalm 2:4). On Judgment Day, those who conspire to do evil and to touch His anointed will face a terrible fate.
As I said in my past post on TOM'S JOURNAL..... WE OUGHT TO BE HAPPY AND JOYOUS RIGHT NOW IN THESE LAST DAYS THAT OUR DELIVERANCE IS NEAR !! Good, hard working Christians/ Bible students/ Followers, have suffered thru the Centuries, tortured and murders --- even right now in the Middle East, and the Jews too! The Apostle, Luke, says to "Lift our heads high, for we know that our deliverance is here." If we can't even afford to carry some small Bible tracts on us at all times... shame on us! God is using us to reach people in these last days until He gets His quota... for lack of better terminology. If you need help in picking some out, just email me: tschuckman@aol.com
When I am out grocery shopping in my power scooter, like today, I ask for hired help in carrying out the goods and loading them in the back seat of my Ram truck, that also carries my VA provided power scooter, and sometimes I give them a few bucks tip, along with a Bible tract. And having been in Sales and Finance long ago, I tell them, "Please read this, it's really good." And I have never been turned down once ! I will use everything to my advantage, folks, even my Service-connected Veteran Disability! Once the goods are in their hands, it's now up to them to reach out to the Lord! I am therefore NOT guilty of having their blood on my hands. Of course the Holy Spirit helps me too. Perhaps I am a poor man now, for spending so much money --- but we cannot take it with us.... 'filthy lucre' --LOL. I [we] have left instructions for/ with Terri's good son, Matthew, who loves to hunt, to just take over our goods when the Rapture comes ..... but I wish that he would grasp the Truth of the Bible, and come to heaven with us!! Maybe he will be a 'Tribulation Saint" --- but I am going to make things clear what we believe and what the Bible says, even if I happen to step on some one's toes. I don't hound people, but I say my piece and just let it set in their minds.
Some people try hard to pull me down, saying that I was such a big sinner, with so many ladies and relationships in my past life. All I can say is that, 'Yes, I AM A SINNER MAN!' BUT NOW I AM SAVED by the Grace of God, and my sins are forgiven! I am also a much better man NOW than ever before, and working hard on my shortcomings, attitude, behavior, and have a good wife who loves me dearly. Unfortunately, most of MY family are still heathen, and they don't want any part of the truth of the Bible. I have prayed for them, and still support my Mom the best I can, by calling her almost every day.
Warm Regards,
Tom
When a Great Nation Becomes Lawless
By Jan Markell
September 9, 2013
Our current radio program features Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN). Jan and co-host Eric Barger quiz her about many issues for the entire hour, including:
1) Why is the Obama White House and Clinton/Kerry State Department fine with ousting men like Qadaffi, Mubarek, and Assad when they are all anti-Muslim Brotherhood and al-Qaeda? Brutal terrorists have and will continue to seize control when long-time Mid East leaders are ousted. Is it because some of our nation's highest leaders now share the worldview of terrorist outfits? How did that happen? Our leaders have gone from fighting terrorists to arming and supporting them!
2) The Muslim Brotherhood wants the annihilation of Israel, as does al-Qaeda. Is this the common bond that our highest leaders now share with these terror outfits? What are the potential consequences to America if this is our motive?
3) What is the truth behind Benghazi and the 35 Americans who were on the ground and who have been silenced (although a couple of tell-all books are coming out)? Benghazi was a secret operation that turned out to be not-so-secret. Something was going on between that U.S. outpost, Turkey, and Syria. Hostage-swapping may have been in the work.
4) Where were Obama and Clinton during the 9/11/12 debacle?
5) How did perilous times soar into high gear on June 4, 2009? That day Barack Obama addressed an Islamic college in Cairo and promoted Islam. He pandered to them and blamed America for wrongs. His special guests were the Muslim Brotherhood. Hosni Mubarek was not invited. This gave the green light to the "Arab Spring" which has decimated the Mid East and caused the death of tens of thousands of Christians for whom few are standing up.
6) How far will the current surveillance society go? Much farther thanks to Obamacare which will cause surveillance to soar to new heights! Obamacare is not about healthcare. It is about total control and total surveillance. George Orwell might be overwhelmed. NSA spying will pale compared to Obamacare spying. How might righteous Americans be marginalized under Obamacare just as the IRS has marginalized conservatives and Christians?
7) Why does the Right offer so little opposition to this? Why are they okay with standing by and watching America be dismantled brick-by-brick?
8) Why did Bachmann step down from Congress in 2014?
Who will be left in Congress as friends of Israel?
9) Why does Bachmann feel all is not lost? Can America be restored to her more glorious days? Perhaps with prayer and fasting. Now is a time when the church can shine and offer a cup of cold water to hurting people. Will it?
10) These are prophetic times. All that is happening was foretold in the Bible! The "birth pangs" have begun and the stakes have never been higher. Few understand this as these issues are not addressed from our pulpits. All of this is on fast-forward due to the lateness of the hour.
11) Is the "coronation" of Hillary Clinton in 2016 a sure thing? No. Learn why.
Do not despair: The God who controls all of Heaven and earth said, "The nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance. All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing" (Isaiah 40:15, 17).
God is still keeping count of the hairs on our heads. He is still counting the sparrows that fall, still hearing petitions before they are asked, and still answering before being called. He is still giving abundantly more than we can ask or think. So why let the facts on the ground throw us? He has everything under control.
God sits in the Heavens and laughs at foolish, evil mankind (Psalm 2:4). On Judgment Day, those who conspire to do evil and to touch His anointed will face a terrible fate.
( Here is a story that reveals how one Benghazi whistle blower is being punished for speaking out as he did earlier this year.)
