Friends, and Readers,
Let us be clear on this, once and for all ! I can certainly speak from experience and with authority. After I came home for good, from the Army and Vietnam, I was heart sick, and a emotional wreck, searching for the real TRUTH. I fell in with a religious cult that twisted my mind into thinking that we all have to work our way to some sort of [maybe] "salvation" -- and the only "Channel" that had God's power and Spirit was the Watch Tower, the JW-cult. But there are many cults and false religions today in the USA! The ONLY "Channel" we go thru to gain true Salvation, is JESUS CHRIST !! The KJV Bible is full of scriptural proof of what I just said!
THINK: If you knew there was a ton of pure gold in your back yard, you would get a shovel and start digging, no matter what day of the week, or what ever prior commitment. Yet folks are walking around in most cases, in a drug induced fog, or drunken stupor !! I know that many folks are so tired working for below standard wages, and the price of gasoline and beef will only go UP. Obama has already destroyed the USA, and soon your American dollar will be worthless, and the country is already bankrupt, etc, etc. Yet, Jesus is coming soon!
To help share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and Salvation, I use some great little Bible tracts. I send them some money to help defray the costs of paper, ink, etc., to:

I want to think my buddy, George N, and his team, for helping the NV rancher in trouble, and all the other Patriots and 'boots on the ground.' You are my hero, today.
Hoo Rah !
Not Ready When The Rapture Comes?
Q. My church leader has said in the past; speaking about the Rapture, if you are in the nightclub when Jesus comes, He’s not going to stop by there to pick you up. I don’t go to nightclubs but, is this doctrine true of the Rapture?
A. Your pastor was using the nightclub as an example to imply that if you are sinning at the time of the rapture you will be left behind. If he is right the only way to be certain that won’t happen is to never sin again because no one knows exactly when the rapture will take place.
Since it is impossible for believers to completely stop sinning, I imagine there will be many who will be committing some kind of sin at the very moment the rapture happens. But that’s why inclusion in the rapture is based on what we believe, not on how we behave.
The Lord forgave all our sins at the cross (Colossians 2:13-14). He saved us at the moment we believed and gave us the seal of the Holy Spirit as a deposit to guarantee our inheritance (Ephes. 1:13-14). From that time on He no longer counts our sins against us (Romans 7:18-20). He did all this because He wanted to make sure none of us will be left behind.
“For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever” (1 Thes. 4:16-17).
