St Matthew 24 v 6,7,8

"And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows."
Yet more earthquakes overnight and anyone with an eye to see and an ear to hear can't deny startling similarities within the Bible and events happening today.
But, all these are the precursor of the tribulation period, where, believers in Christ will suffer persecution and death and false prophets will lead people astray. Where people will be forced to take the mark of the beast and worship him.
Well you dont have to worship him, you will have a choice. Refuse to take the mark of the beast and you wont be able to buy food, pay for heating, clothing, electricity you will have nothing because you will not be able to even access your bank account. Your material life will be totally ruined as you refuse the beast. Almost forgot, the chances are that you will be killed anyway for refusing to submit.
OK then, whats the good news.
"he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved"
"i saw the souls of them....which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads,or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years."
My humble message is to be bold, strong and courageous and fear only the true living God, the God of David.

whats new?


Thought i would take advantage of speaking my mind whilst it's still allowed!
Interesting news about the new guidlines for assisted suicide
(murder)?
Why do we in this day and age seem to believe we are on a par with God? Do people who help terminally ill commit suicide really know that persons state of mind or their real feelings?
Of course they say they do, they think they have Gods gift of ending someones life.
And the important question we have to ask is- where does it all end?
Oh he/she was so depressed life wasn't worth living.
Oh after being confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his/her life, well you know....
People face adversity in life. Whoever told anyone life is a bed of roses lied.
There was a case of a young lad paralysed in an accident who commited voluntary euthanasia. If that person had more time to reconcile his injuries what a great role model he could have been to other people in the same situation. As indeed there are fine role models who overcome lifelong disabilities and terminal illnesses to inspire countless people.
Who are we to act as God to murder people who may not know the true living God, and send them to eternity forever estranged from Him?
