Testimony of Jesus: The Two Greatest Things

Testimony of Jesus: The Two Greatest Things: What are they? The Blood of Jesus and the Name of Jesus. The blood representing the supreme sacrifice of the cross and His powerful name representing the resurrection in victory. By the blood we are washed from all sin supernaturally in spirit, soul and natural, and the vibration of His name supernaturally changes the spirit, soul and natural realms. What power we have from Him.

The Furnace Proves The Metal

Jeremiah 6:27-29

It was in July 1987 that I closed my eyes and prayed to Jesus:  "Lord, make me who You want me to be, regardless of the cost."  When I did this, there was a raging storm from the Antarctic.  The road was twisty, up a narrow gorge and awash with water as there was a cloudburst.  The river down below was raging like a stampede of wild steers. On this narrow, dangerous road, snaking around numerous short bends hugging the cliff face, that was what I had prayed. With my eyes closed. Religiously so.


I signed the cheque, He cashed it!


A series of Job experiences would follow. Job was tested twice, Chapter 1 tells of the first time but the rest of the book tells of the second and final tremendous trial that Job had undergone.  He would end up having God's favour where others had not.


Since 2003, my family and I trekked and we are at stage 39 thereof.  We were sent, without purse, to the houses of others, to the churches of others.  At each stage, there was a specific project in terms of someone needed Truth to be told to.  At only two of these 39 stages did we find obedience to God and only one of these two was a reborn Christian!  At 35 of the other addresses, all reborn Christians, two things were absent despite all the religiosity:  willingness to obey our Lord Jesus in a practical step-by-step way and the others were deeds of faith.  We were even asked to leave one very upbeat, almost charismatic church because we had "too much faith."


As we were broke and homeless, everybody saw us as failures of Christianity instead of humbled to be sent into their homes to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  It is so typical of Christians to do just that and even recently on Google+ I had to endure much ridicule and mockery - one even sent me a "coin and a bread in faith" when I was fighting hypoglycemic coma from simply being hungry.  It was a medical emergency with my life in danger but all help was withdrawn because I committed the sin of speaking harshly after weeks of asking nicely. 


God's instruction to me was to come here and "eat what they sit before you."  We were sent to Google+ to test the love of the proclaiming Christian.  I was sent as a tester of the vociferously proclaimed faith.  It is not by laziness that I am hungry but by being disabled and living in an country with well over 500 racial discriminatory laws.  Our Lord took me up on my blank cheque and sent me in as a lamb among the wolves.  My critics on Google+ were being tested and they failed dismally.  Each and every ONE of them had NO LOVE in their hearts.


My report back to Jesus is that His warning of America being split is justified, as I did not find faith there.  I found much talk of it.  What I did find much of, was an acute lack of His Love. His Love is only visible when man delivers it, as He had come to set the example of Himself.


Since 2000, I have worked at rebuilding His Kingdom, as per my calling in Isaiah 23:18 and Isaiah 45:14.  He had set me up with concessions for diamonds and gold to be mined for profits, which was meant for funding global evangelism. One after the other, the American Christian "investors" came, greedy and selfish, then walked away.  Now it is given to Chinese who do not serve God and the African Christians remain poor.  It is not of laziness that my family are poor, but because of the many Christians who are no Christians at all, as they did not seek His counsel but made their own decisions.


On Google+, It had taken over three weeks to find someone willing to even pray for a soul in distress down in Florida, USA.  I politely requested, then changed my tone and became firmer. Yet it was only when the sledgehammer did not work and the wrecking ball came out, that a few eventually started paying attention.  This is an experience in keeping with American Christianity that I still cannot get used to after two decades of this unloving unkindness.


For His church but also to help stimulate the American economy for the benefit of Christianity, we as a family slept in the open, we had our sleeping bags and clothing all wet, sometimes the water ran four inches deep. Subsequent to that, we were persecuted in ways not dissimilar to that in the former USSR, but by churches here in my city!  Today, we are impoverished, spent, having to battle seven days per week for a nation lacking the spine to even pray for their own.  Unlike the Americans on Google+, me, the man from Africa, engaged in intercession for their people when they were so busy bragging how Christian they are that they did not even hear when their own called fro help.

Please, where is the sanity?  Don't you see there is work to be done?  If talking nicely does not help, what do we need to restore the church of Acts?  Does our Lord first have to shake your world to get your attention?

..............I reported, "All of them are the most stubborn of rebels! They are as hard as bronze or iron. They go about telling lies. They all deal corruptly.   29 The fiery bellows of judgment burn fiercely. But there is too much dross to be removed. The process of refining them has proved useless.

Feast of the Purple Dragon

over yonder across the crystal river
the new jerusalem the city of adonai
golden domes and minarets
gates of jasper and onyx and pearl
pillars studded with emeralds and diamonds
rubies and opal sit side by side
golden gates framed on choicest woods
cypress and oak, birch and beech
mother of pearl clads city walls

at the entrance she lays
slain to morbidity
at the gates
of the pearly gated city
inside her a drunken feast
feasting maggots within the beast
trampling another writhing with lust
let us devour from inside her milky bust
ivory madonna and her babes
scarlet harlot in red
finally the whore the whore is dead
the supposed saints given to ecstasy
in their futile fatal gorging of rotten flesh
feasting the drunken orgy of mothers death
so preoccupied they never realise she is dead
still inside her body like the bible said
they are subject to her curse
in written rhyme and verse
their mood is high their end is nigh
oblivious to the bottomless pit
at the cliff's edge the cadavers sit

lonesome levite from afar
small as a twinkling little star
she come bearing her bags
filled with handed down weary rags
the old laptop a donor sent
still at the hinges bent
so he got himself a new
donated the broken to steeple and pew

on she comes
sweet stench of rotten corpse fills the air
how on earth will I get past there?
at the pearly gates she sees
careful now, a crevasse, on her knees
stealthily stalking by
to the haven in the sky!

levite girl mission africa
cross-bearer from pacifica
her poverty forgotten
at the feet of The Begotten
finally she is freed of hunger
delivered from cold and lack
there even is a new laptop in her pack!

the gates now firmly close
outside are the feasting those
destined for the pit and fire
to incinerate their selfish desire

that is your path, fake religious
you are contented prestigious
your end will be disaster
no nardus from alabaster
did we not heal in your name
no, you were seeking fame
robbing the poor all the same
go into never ending flame


inside the Everly City
no pain no pity
angels on gibson lead guitars
stroking the musical bars
bands of drum and fender bass
trumpeteering His grace
humans angels harmonize
they had won the only prize
joyful their song in heaven!

A Future Perspective Upon The USA

I greet you in His peace!

Over the past few weeks, I have shared His vision and mission opportunity with you.   A number of questions had been asked and this will be a standard answer to all of them.

This is not about myself but about His will and purpose.  His purpose is His Love for you mingled with practical reality.  Some have been conditioned to believe in an escapist Rapture theory which directly contradicts Jesus who is God.  Matthew 24:29-31 is where Jesus busts the Rapture Myth.  What Paul tweeted to the Thessalonian believers says how it will happen and Jesus said when.

In His Love, He had made a plan for you.

Possibly the Scripture quoted most out of context and then creating a half-truth, is Jeremiah 29:11.  We all know what it says but see what follows next, the T's & C's to qualify verse 11.

"Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.  13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.  14 And I will be found of you, saith the LORD..."

We first need to seek Him, we first need to be doing this with all of our heart. No diluted or divided loyalty; either all or nothing.

So, He has a plan for you but have you set yourself aside to seek Him as described above?  If not, why delay?

In what I am presenting here, a collage of visions will be shared but all of it make sense when seen as a whole. 

Then I need to say that the Lord had shown me various disasters, all of which had happened except for this one discussed here.  All signs to see it happen some way or another, are already clear, so I do not need to elaborate. 

My son, then 12 or 13, had "seen" the London bombs well in advance but we were too blind to see and did not warn in time.
What follows next is mostly important to anyone living on either the North- or South American continent.  I will firstly deal with the most imminent.

We read in Matthew 24:29-31 that He will only return to collect us after the tribulation.  It is also said in Revelation that the Beast will war against the saints and overcome them.  This has been ongoing for almost two millennia now, so it is nothing new.  We are seeing an increase at the moment, with the rise of the Islamic State.

Revelation also states that the dragon will war against the woman (true church) and her off-spring.  She will flee into the wilderness, something that is a repetitive theme from early in the Bible.  It is a prophecy true to many era's in the sense of "there is nothing new under the sun."

Now we are seeing trouble, as Jesus said that He only comes after this had happened and that the dragon will overcome the saints.  We see a woman flee into the desert with her offspring. This now brings Revelation 3:10 into the fray. We see that certain believers will be spared and they will be taken to where Isaiah 18 clearly defines the southern regions of Africa. (Cush, Ethiopia are names for all of Africa.)

This is where I fit into all of this!

The USA has been warned for more than forty years about turmoil to come, by reliable prophets such as David Wilkerson, of Nicky Cruz fame.  There lived another as a simple shepherd in the arid regions of South Africa, someone whose named had never been tarnished and whose prophecies had been uncannily accurate over time.

Follow the link and read the entire post, it is a bit long but you need to see it all to have the right perspective in the end.

I am a simple man of God myself and not one with any social status, yet the Lord had shown me things in the past and all of those had come true:

1996 or 1997 bombs in Worcester, South African
2011 floods in South Africa and a rise in communist youth activism.  Even this had caused President Jacob Zuma to avoid Parliament for about half a year now after the EFF's members under Julius Malema had caused a riot there.
2008 Two air crashes, one at Windhoek in Namibia and the other at Bredasdorp in South Africa.

All of the above have been "seen" months or years in advance.

Like David Wilkerson and others, I had also received a very clear warning that had not yet come true.  This shows a violent division of the USA and I am not sure whether it is of a literal or figurative meaning – or both.  That is up to the Lord to reveal.

Our Lord had sent the old Dutch to what today is Cape Town, to establish a haven in the wilderness, back in 1652, which was when you were on His mind. The Dutch became the Afrikaners and the Afrikaner pioneers who ventured inland are called the Boere.  (Boer = farmer but it has a wider meaning.)

The Afrikaner-Boer people have no less than three covenants with our Lord.  We had been sent here to prepare the way for others, people like you, who may be needing a safer haven in future.  He had shown me to travel to the Americas when it is dark (could mean after a long time or when there are dark times, or both.)  I then meet up with small groups of people, maybe ten, or twenty, or twenty-five at a time. Then I bind Satan, worship Jesus together with you and then bring you home to South Africa, from where He will be collecting us.  How far this is into the future, I do not know.

What is of importance now is that we must lay the foundation as Jesus had confirmed over and again that my purpose here is for the woman.
There are community projects here that need your help and Jesus is smart in building community.  First, we pray and then He binds people together. Out of that community comes the chosen for doing the work.  Secondly, the chosen get into action and the project is launched.

What we need to achieve is of monumental nature and I am eventually only going to be the paymaster. Others will build and tame what needs to be built and tamed.  We can get into the detail another day.

I am not called to be living under a bridge or in a tent in Alberta or Alaska.  Those doing it are where they need to be if they are within His will.

Where I am now, was showed long before.  What also was shown and confirmed many times over since 2008, is that the American woman (white = pure heart) will come with an amount of money sufficient to maintain my family, also to acquire the computers and phones we will need.  The woman (American church) will partner with us until The End and the joint venture will grow immensely.

For the past eight years, we never asked anyone anything but Jesus is forcing us to be doing so, as this is His way to marry you and us into becoming the pioneers in this venture of hiding the woman and her child in the wilderness.
We as a small family had to forsake our own friends and family and had endured much on our own.  There was persecution and even arrests on false statements.  Of course released without being sentenced even, cases were dropped. Yet we know how it is to be rejected by all and unwanted by all.

When you fine hour comes in America, of which 9/11 was but a foretaste, my family and I will be ready for you.  We will know your pain as we had felt it ourselves.  There will be somebody to receive you but, in the meantime, please reach out to local communities here with us, as we need to also teach them the Truth. 

A decade ago, I was told by Americans that South Africa could be formally associated with the USA to become the 51st state.  I do see our partnership happen but the USA already is in danger of being politically divided at the very least.  The "We The People" initiative already sought various states to seek independence.

Hopefully, some of you may start seeing the Light of Jesus here.

Papa Meilan helps you to choose right, Son!

Papa Meilan is a "black-velvety" dark red and known as the world's most fragrant rose.



My father loved his roses and we had a large plot in a suburb established in the 1920's.  There were picturesque gardens with all sorts of trees, shrubs and flowers.

We had roses, even one called Chrysler Imperial, but the almost sacrosanct rose was the Papa Meilan and only my father had the privilege to cut one.  When the one in the vase in the long hallway neared its end, he would wait a few days and then go outside and pick the best one on the rose bush.

This best rose was placed centrally in the home, at an intersection between two hallways.  Their was an imbuia  hall stand and he would establish this beautiful red, almost black rose in the vase, the vase itself inside a brass container he had made.  The rose would then last for about three weeks before another would take its place. Its lingering fragrance would fill the entire large old house.

One day while working in the garden, my father turned to me and said: "Son, pick the best, pick one at a time. A good rose's fragrance fills a house. You only pick another a little while after the first had died. Do not indulge in picking roses. Indulge in their beauty, look at them, smell them but never desire another while you have one in the house. And that, my son, is your education on choosing a wife."

When I had chosen a wife, she was in this league.

Disobedience Destroys!

If ever I had a message to deliver, this has to be it.

God had a perfect plan and man took a different route. Half of my life as a reborn Christian was an extreme effort to return to His plan for me.

When I was 12 years old, I knew I had to go to commercial high school, which was half a block away from our home. However, I was not allowed to and had to attend technical high school where my father was a teacher. When in Grade 10, I tried switching schools and an army of teachers did everything they could to prevent me and, as I was a minor, I did not really have a say.

Before I started two years of conscription (compulsory military duty) I signed an employment contract with a large industrial enterprise, as an engineering student. While doing my national service, I realized my mistake and wanted out; it would have cost me about a month's salary to buy my freedom. As I was under age, I needed my parents to co-sign the termination and they refused. The end result was that I spent a year studying something I was not called for and which I did not have aptitude for. (Pay careful attention to Exodus 35 verse 30-35.)

When I turned 21, I resigned and pursued a career in finance. It mean that I had to repay three years' salary, some of which I have not even received, but that is what the contract said. Plus interest at a double figure rate.

I started over, at age 21, where I should have been when I was age 12. I did so with an enormous burden of debt, in a country where, in those years, I could go to prison if I did not repay.

My first attempt at getting saved ended up in verbal and physical abuse because I went to a teacher, while having been in Grade 10, to seek advice because the Satan had convinced me that I was destined for eternal hell, as I was brought under the false impression that I had blasphemed against the Holy Spirit. The teacher was also a missionary and a true disciple. In my home, we were Christian but there never was any hint of God having a will and the "self-made man" ruled. And not always in a male body.

Having started a new career, my small salary and the immense debt burden placed tertiary study via correspondence out of my reach. My lack of academic education in commercial law, economics, business economics and accounting, has always been counting against me and stripped me of my potential to excel in life.

I am 53 today, living on a meager disability grant of US$120 per month and living in a dilapidated house shared with six other families and having to pay an immense daily rent. My first laptop came from 2002 and was a gift from a former prostitute. It does not even function properly and getting anything done is a real challenge. Me hosting a blog site is almost miraculous, as few others would have the tenacity and perseverance to even try working with this.

Getting back to where I should have started in Grade 8, in 1976, is not easy when this 53-year old need to retrace his steps and follow the spoor that I should have back then.

Here I am, over qualified experience-wise, not academically qualified at all and living in a country where a white male is effectively ruled out of getting a job, through current discriminatory labour laws.

My specific calling is not getting answered to and this is affecting the lives of many. Part of my preparation for this was a career in the public service, where I was placed in the financial division and where I have learned effective and efficient ways of short-, medium- and long term planning, managed a multi-million dollar budget and also had the opportunity to further my expertise in information technology. Something I am really good at by now, ask the teens and young adults who cannot keep up!

In 1999, after I had lost my career and my home, the Lord so miraculously provided me with a fantastic job in Cape Town, where I would be marketing retail systems to SME's. With the job came a good basic salary, an Opel Astra 1.8 and an excellent commission structure. This job was given to me around 4pm on my mother's birthday.

The snag was that we did not have a home then and have arrived at my parents' a few weeks prior. On the day that I took the one hour drive to Cape Town for the job interview, I had to wait for a second interview and took my wife and children to the museum in the Gardens. There, I by chance (divine intervention) met an owner of a gold mine who was looking for a long term buyer cum expertise partner.

As we needed a place to stay and my parents would not accommodate us, as they were trying to sell their large home, they forced me not to take the job, but to accept another. The Lord said "don't go, as there you will see strife, famine and disease; also, there you will die."

Yet there was no alternative and we went. My new employer was a Christian who verbally abused his staff, even assaulted them physically and he also was involved in major crime and racketeering. Smuggling drugs, abalone, staging robberies to claim fraudulently from insurance companies, even sexual abuse of staff, was what we experience there. He eventually was caught for tax fraud and convicted. This was a coastal village far from the city, almost at the southernmost tip of Africa. The end result was strife, tremendous hardship, famine, terrible disease, heart attacks, stroke, etc. And I lost my anointing, so that it became impossible to have this inner conviction. Every decision became a battle of the mind and this would wear me out to this day.

We were left penniless, without a vehicle and we were sent from one place to another, 36 extreme traumatic moves between 1999 and 2009. We spent a few winters in cold, wet beds, on the floor or on the ground, in all sorts of temporary shelters.

The Lord showed me in a dream that I would meet a small cousin at an airport. A few months later, a Christian asked me to tow his caravan to Mossel Bay, about four hours away from us by car. I had a license to tow, which he did not. We arrived late at night and he initially suggested that he would sent me back to Cape Town by plane. His wife and I agreed, as it would cost much less than driving me back and returning to Mossel Bay. Our drive back was a nightmare as he was being presented with visions of an airline pilot's jacket and stripes, that kept appearing in front of him. He would then suddenly brake, from 180km/h, with big trucks behind us. He kept on cussing the Satan, but I knew it was the Holy Spirit. See, that small cousin of mine is an airline pilot, we would have met at the airport as predicted by God. Her family would then have given me a start in life.

It did not happen and we continued living out in the open, sleeping in 2-man tents, with all our clothes usually wet and moldy.

I can ramble on forever, but the end result is that, due to disobedience, I am stuck at age 53, cashless, without a tertiary education, having to start where I left off at age twelve!

Meanwhile, my calling is on hold, which is to use my contacts all over Africa to source minerals and precious metals, gemstones, etc., so that I can fund the mission work of the remnant. Isaiah 23:18, Isaiah 45:14.

The mining communities, instead, are being unfairly exploited by ungodly buyers who arrive loaded with cash and leave with diamonds and gold ad dirt cheap prices. These predominantly Christian Africans are being left in abject poverty. God did call, I did respond, yet my own actions herein is being delayed. Myopic investors came and went, people who only see big bucks and not the bigger picture.

Thousands of people are suffering in extreme conditions today, because of this failure. Even Christians from a large country abroad participate in this horrific exploitation. They are abusing our fellow believers, some who truly are the salt of the earth and pure-hearted people, even though very basic.

Anyone telling me that our disobedience is OKAY and who tries to tell me that God is OKAY with this, wake up to Matthew 7:21-23!

I can dig up scores of others instances where this work of mine had been thwarted. Even so, I have not lost faith, I never gave up hope, I am expending whatever resources I have in either pursing this or in touching hearts and lives on my daily walk. I do not sit around, doing nothing.

Today, I challenge the relatively wealthy comfortable and opinionated Christians to come and equal my faith, my tenacity, my guts, my gumption, my obstinate persistence and perseverance in not letting go of my call of duty. Like a good soldier, I never leave my post and I focus upon my mission.

I do plead with Christians to forget what they think God has in His mind and what not, that He will simply send a bolt of lightning and correct our countless failures. Forgives, yes He does that! Carrying out His work on earth, as what He had called and equipped us for. If we do not do His will, if we do not execute His plan, where does that place us?

Please, people, wake up to the reality that you are here to do God's will and not your own. You are here to execute His plan and not frustrate His ambitions. If you do oppose His will, are you really guided by His Spirit? Are you really the "sons of God" whose claim to fame is being led by Him?

The fool says "there is no God!"


This was God's Plan but we are very far from getting His will done.  Disobedience sabotages His will!

Shaking Things Up In America

I am a white African living in the southern regions of the independent country of South Africa, yet North- and South America are constantly in my mind.

The Lord had commissioned me for this task and had called me to go in secret like Gideon went into battle and Jesus to the festival.  He had removed us from all friends and relatives, even the local faith community.  My brothers had put me in a well because I am a dreamer like Joseph and Daniel.   The "divorce" from my loved ones and even support base has been a long and very painful process.

Following the "divorce", came a process of hiding in the caves of Abdullam, which is where I am now at.  During this process, I had time for healing

Yet the Lord said He was going to provide us with a new family, a family cleansed in His blood and immersed in His Spirit, a people with a circumcised heart and a passionate love for His house.

Ever since I was a child, I had a keen interest in the Americas.  Prairies, Pampas, Rockies, Andes, Arizona, Atacama....all exotic names promising adventure. 

We had a wonderful encyclopedia set at home entitled "Children of the World."  It was available only in my mother tongue and it contained the history, geography, demographics and culture of almost every one of the world's countries.   I would spend many a long winter day or night poring over the glossy page, drinking in knowledge of the big world out there.  As my country only received television about a decade later, this was a most wonderful pastime that had, as I know now, educated me and prepared me for doing His work now, some forty years later.

The Americas with their icy Alaska, tropical Hawaii, a Panama channel and a Cape Horn.  A man on the smiling moon.

Fascinating!

Many people, mostly Americans themselves, say such bad things about the US of America.  Some of it perhaps deserved, even justified yet so very sad.

Our Lord loves all living across the Americas and on the numerous tropical paradises either side of it.  He has a plan for you, a hope and a future, when you seek Him with all your heart – we all know Jeremiah 29:11-13.

In days, years or decades to come, turmoil is coming your way but there is a hope and a future, a place prepared in the wilderness, as so accurately described in Isaiah 18.

Our Lord had sent the Dutch to Africa to prepare the safe(r) haven in the wilderness.  He had sent them to also reap the diamonds, gold and other riches to build His temple and much of it did happen, yet the British came and impounded His wealth, they also brought with them Karl Marx in person and established communism which, in turn, led to the introduction of the pro-Nazi apartheid.   When Christians around the world believed the inverted truth as presented by the immensely well-organized Soviet propaganda, they freed communism and the bottom line is that God's resources now belong to various communist regimes in Asia where it effectively is being used to fund the rising Antichrist.

Christians owe God an explanation and an apology, I presume.

In His great love, our Lord will balance the scales and make up for the losses in His own miraculous ways.  We need not be concerned as He had already made the decision and gave the outcome.  It is now up to us to move into a position to be blessed, to be accommodated in the safety of His refuge until He returns

As a rational, logical person not easily impressed by all sorts of paranoia that so easily easily grabs the attention of gullible folks, I still have to say that I have an absolute faith in His true prophets as we find in His Word.  Back in those days, there were enough false prophets and sorcerers about, yet many true prophets walked the earth then and also now, as announced by the true prophet Joel.

However, I am not here because of my own visions or that of others, but rather as someone called by our Lord through Scripture, inner conviction and all the usual ways our Lord speaks to us.  Dreams and visions, however accurate, are not my main compass, ever, although we see how Maria and Joseph and others had in such a way.

The Lord showed me to travel to the Americas and meet with small groups, bind the Satan, anoint them and then fly them back to the wilderness refuge.  I really do not have the details, just the instruction.  It will not happen overnight as I was show that it happens over a long time, but then I received this commissioning perhaps six years ago.

As you will see below, I had a scary vision about the USA splitting into two sides.  I will not even speculate whether this is literal or figurative, as it can just as easily be either or both.  Others had this vision as well and therefore this really is not really unique, just conformation of others' visions.

What about rapture?  I don't want to open a can of worms and start a flame war.  I just listen to the direct words of Jesus Himself in Matthew 24:29-31, where HE said that immediately AFTER the tribulations...............therefore the principle of the desert refuge that had been true over many dispensations in the Bible.  It is a general principle with specific outcomes, situation dependent.

I am greeting you in the name of Jesus the Christ, our Lord and Master, with His peace and His great Love.


Pete

PS:  Please spread this amongst your trusted fellow believers.  My previous letter included below, should you not have received it.

Hi

I will try to be brief.  Please do bear with me as I share my vision with you. Our Lord had called me in

Please follow  the link to the prophet and WW3 predictions, USA, Pacific Rim, etc.  Don't be fooled by the title; there is much about the USA and other countries. 

The old prophet is the only one in modern times that I know of, who so far had been 100% accurate.

Our Lord has called me to prepare the way for His people.  Time is of the essence and you may also have noticed that even He seems to give someone a chance, perhaps two and then move on when there is no compliance.  The harvest is ripe and no watering or fertilizing is required.

So many times, I had been given the measurements of the Temple.  Also, a graphical presentation of the state of the broad church, which just emphasizes common knowledge.

One of my visionary dreams showed the USA being split into two.  To this day, I am not sure whether this is meant to be figurative or literal.  What did strike me was when I had learned a few years later that many others had a similar vision, all of them Americans.  It showed the USA split from around Chicago down to perhaps Baton Rouge, but this is a rough estimate as all was so destroyed that known landmarks were not visible. Two tectonic plates first drawing apart and then collide, to form two ridges with a deep valley in between, exposing molten lava.

The real shock came when I told a US scientist about it and she then took me to the New Madrid fault line.  Pictures she had sent me matched with what I had seen and, over time, I would meet others online who had seen even more detail, much scarier than my own visions.





See the faded black strip running through the fault line; this is more or less the entire area of division.  I lack the English to explain the parallel mountain ranges that will be formed and especially the resulting rift valley in between, with cracks in the earth crus along its length, exposing molten rock below.





As I have said, it could be a matter of inference and only time will tell. I think, given the fact that many other believers were given similar dreams, it should come as a waning to those prudent enough to pay attention.  Prophecies many times are warnings and we as saints can pray and act to prevent or lessen disaster, be it of a personal nature or of global magnitude.

Also, I am not the only one.  I will provide links here even though I did not read or watch any of these.  You decide.

Contrary to popular rapture belief, clearly refuted by Jesus Himself (Matt 24:29-31)there will be great turmoil upon earth and He will, as in the past, take His elect to a relatively safe refuge in the wilderness.  This is where I am living; the entire southern region will become a heimat for His obedient believers.

This is where you and your loved ones will migrate to and await the return of the Lord.  My function is to liaise between the American church and the local administration as well as being the paymaster, something I am very experienced in, for the practical "temple building" on this side.

After I was saved by Jesus on February 10, 1985, I had made a covenant with Him on the late evening of the 12th. My covenant was a promise to share a large portion of after-tax income with His work provided my own debts are erased and I also requested immense wisdom and unequaled faith.

All was granted immediately but He does not do Fedex so I had to walk a painful path of tribulation and extreme sacrifice, a season during which my faith had grown, I have gained discernment and understanding but the wealth for His kingdom had been elusive.  Isaiah 23:17-18, Isaiah 45:14, and many others.

Of course, as predicted by Haggai, I first needed to lay the foundation. This letter is exactly that:  formally laying the Temple foundation.  At this stage, it is not known what the scope of the eventual greater project will be and I only know what is needed now.  We need to get established after our sixteen year trek of being homeless for much of the time and having lost all we ever had.  It may seem presumptuous but I am not asking for money, but for intercessory prayer to petition for:

Spiritual Gifts

Then Jesus died and was resurrected.  A while later, he was taken up in heaven where he proverbially "sat at the right hand of God."  This description is an indication of His position of authority.  As He had predicted, His kingdom soon was established upon earth, with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. 

Spiritual gifts were handed out to His disciples, apostles and followers.  We read about this in 1 Corinthians 12 and 14 but also this was announced by the prophet Joel long before.  Therefore, modern prophets are just as legitimate as those of the Old Testament.

"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions"





There is no status to any of these and its names describe functions, not ranks.

Are you ware of your gifts, do you know what these are?  Also please note that speaking in tongues is not for everybody just as the gifts of teaching, healing, prophecy or any other gift is not universal, but Jesus distributes as He wishes to, therefore empowering each for his/her own calling. 

My wife was surprised when we came a small island nation on the other side of the globe and she could understand every word they said!  Yet her very own language is something she does not excel at and many times would use the wrong words when expressing herself.  When we were about to be kidnapped (they had already taken our passports away) she overheard the conversation and we could find help.

How about taking an online test to discover your gifts?

May you be blessed in Jesus our Lord today

Preach It, Parker!

One of the best sermons I ever heard had flowed through a Parker Model 45 fountain ink pen.

I used to love my 45 that had taken me from seventh grade and beyond, for perhaps a decade, until a client one evening "seemingly needed it" while I went to the bathroom.  That was during the late 1980's and I was still a child in faith.

A 45 had the exact shape and counterweight with the cap on at the back while I was writing and did I write very fast but extremely neatly!

I sorely missed my 45!   John Wayne had a Colt .45 Peacemaker but this one wrote love letters, not fire bullets, to settle a score.

On my way to work, one morning, the thought crossed my mind to ask our Lord for a Parker 45.  Immediately, rational me waived the thought aside, as nagging the Lord about a triviality while He was busy managing births, deaths, orbiting planets and irrigating crops where needed, seemed petty.  Then I thought: "How will I ever know if I didn't ask; maybe he WANTED me to have my heart's desire?"

I prayed as I was traveling to work and arrived a bit early.  I was surprised to find one of the three Managing Partners in the "Bored Room" with clients.  As I was an independent consultant, he was a bit shy to ask me if I would run him an errand to Palladium Stationers.

(When I was just six years old, I was sent into the big town of Worcester that we had just moved to from a faraway farming community. I had the hiding of my lifetime when I returned home with no money and just pens and stationery. Pritt.  I bought a Pritt glue stick. Great stuff!  My tan was hided or was my hide tanned?  Not sure; it hurt!)

So I went shopping and what do I see at Palladium?  Smack in the entrance, so that one needed to pass either side of it, was a huge pen display with a Parker Model 45 in the middle!

Of course I bought it and got MORE than I asked as this one had a stainless steel cap with a golden inlay.  I did not get what I asked but received more...........reminds one of Paul's Hebrews.blogspot.bib doesn't it?

I don't have a 45 any longer as someone else needed one again. I also did not ask for one again.

What I have learned is that HE is is in the details, not the devil.  And that we need to be specific when we pray!

Ultimately, God is Spirit

"God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth."   John 4:24

We learn from the Word that God is Spirit, therefore unseen.  It is because He is Spirit that He can be everywhere at the same time, but how exactly does He do that?  How fast does He have to travel and how does He get there in time?

On understanding truth about Trinity, you can read my post here.

Jesus, as the Bible rather clearly states, is God in the flesh, nothing more and nothing less.

The Father is really ONLY revealed in the Old Testament.  This is where the Father character of God really shines through.  Over the decades, I have seen how often Christians did not grasp who He (God) really is because of their lamentable ignorance of the Old Testament.

The Old Testament sets the type.  The New Testament brings it alive.  One echoes the other and neither can be understood without the other.

Their is inference (metaphorical speech) all through the Bible.  In these, there are many situations that depict (paint a picture) of the message conveyed, the principle taught.  In these, He appears as the Father and many times as 'the Angel of the Lord" meaning Jesus.

He has many functions, therefore even many names, yet "Hear, oh Israel, your Lord is ONE"!

1. Adonai - Sovereign Lord
2. El Elyon - Lord Most High
3. Elhoha / Elohim - Mighty Strong One
4. El Olam - Everlasting God (the Name of Jesus in Isaiah 9:6-7)
   
5. El Roi - the All-Seeing God
6. El Shaddai - God is Sufficient
7. JHWE Elohim - Eternal Creator (and we know Jesus created all)
8. JHWE Jireh - Lord our Provider
9. JHWE Nisi - Lord Our Banner
10. JHWE Rapha - Lord Our Healer
11. YHWE Shalom - Lord Our Peace
12. YHWE Tsikednu - Lord Our Righteousness
13. YWHE Sabbaoth - Lord of Lords/Hosts
14. YHWE Rohi - Lord Our Shepherd
    
15. YHWE Hoseenu - Lord Our Maker
16. YHWE Eloheenu - Lord Our GOD
17. YHWE Shammah - Lord Our Present
18. YHWE Mekadishkem - Lord Our Sanctuary

Ask the old church fathers where their mathematics went wrong because I count eighteen and not three.  Yet He is ONE God.


People read a sentence "our Father and Saviour" and then count two persons but not when George Bush is "husband and president."  Why the difference?


The Bible does NOT teach a "godhead" and the original word was Godhood. 



We were made in His image and we are spirit that has a mind and lives in a body.  There is the only trinity ever taught in the Bible, not three persons.


Isaiah 11:2 says about the singular person with many job descriptions of Isaiah 9:6 that (1) the Spirit of God rests upon Him.  A spirit of (2) wisdom and (3) understanding, of (4) counsel and (5) strength, of (6) knowledge and (7) fear of the Lord.


Now we see in Revelation a scene that depicts the FUNCTION of God, not a group meeting as the church would have it!  What we see there:

• Father as KING on the throne
• Lamb (as IF slain) with seven eyes which are the SEVEN spirits of the Lord (Isaiah 11:2)

Here we see all we need to know, that God fulfills every need of the entire creation as His omnipotence is displayed in that He has all authority, all wisdom, sacrificed Himself (and needed a human body to do it in) and then rose again. 



The Lamb is standing as if slain. If have been to a farm or abattoir, you will know that no lamb is standing around after having been slaughtered.  What makes this significant is that this Lamb looks as if slain BUT He is standing upright!


Finally since we know that God is Spirit and He is One, why would He need another called Holy Spirit?  Is He not already the Holy Spirit


Sadly, it also is the misconceived trinity teaching that has NO Biblical foundation that keeps especially Jews and Muslims from accepting the Living God Jesus as their Saviour.
