Chapter 4

THE POINT

SEQUENTIAL – RELEVANT

MANIFEST GROUNDWORK FOR THE CONCLUSION OF THE AGE

 I could spend thousands of drudgerous hours trying to give examples of how everything throughout the history of earth and humankind points to its conclusion. Although historical events and occurrences may seem either unrelated, circumstantial or randomly sequential, they are related in the sense, they are the manifest groundwork for The Conclusion of the age. So, I will provide this chart for you to evaluate, and I will stay with the main events in history, as related to Bible prophecy, which are sequential and relevant to our journey and the previously stated purpose of this thesis.

THE CHART

 (I, honestly, don’t expect many people will read or study the linked PDF chart, which compares a world historical timeline with “Daniel’s Seventy Weeks” as found in the Bible and a Biblical Historical Timeline. The point being made, however, is that the world historical timeline reflects or shows the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, all of which will lead to the greatest of all ‘Points’. Keep reading!)

“By faith we understand that the world has been created by the word of God so that what is seen has not been made out of things that are visible.” Hebrews 11:3

THE POINT:  The world historical timeline reflects or shows the Bible timeline and the fulfillment of prophecy. By reviewing this timeline chart, you can see that what the Bible has prophesied has come to pass, and what the Bible says is yet to come, will come to pass.

THE CHART:  Timelines: Historical, Daniel’s 70 weeks, The Bible

THE POINT:  This historical timeline reflects or shows the correlation of a world historical timeline with Daniel’s 70 Weeks, the Bible historical timeline and that of Biblical Prophecy.

In other words, we can trace the fulfillment of Biblical Prophecies throughout history. This gives us assurance that what the Bible says is yet to come, will come to pass.

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18

IF YOU UNDERSTAND THESE HISTORICAL TIMELINES AS DESCRIBED IN SECULAR HISTORY,  IN DANIEL’S SEVENTY WEEKS AND IN THE BIBLICAL TIMELINES, YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHERE HISTORY IS HEADED AND THAT WE ARE IN THE FINAL DAYS OF THE FINAL WEEK BEFORE JESUS RETURNS, USHERING IN THE “GREAT AND TERRIBLE DAY OF THE LORD”.

PERFECTION – Chapter 3 – Then Came Man(kind)

Chapter 3

 THEN CAME MAN (kind)

The Bible clearly states that God, created all there is that is seen. There is a lot of speculation and conjecture and some good reasoning as to why God created all things, but there are no definitive statements in the Bible as to WHY God created the heavens and the earth in the first place.  But, according to the Bible, He did create all things, seen and unseen. And, if that weren’t enough, God also created humans, or, as the Bible puts it, in Genesis 1:26, “Then God said, “Let Us make mankind in Our image, according to Our likeness.”

THE MAJOR EVENT

This is a major event. The seminal event in all creation. God is making a creature He calls ‘mankind’ in His, (Their), own image and according to Their likeness.

Before we get to the creation of mankind, we see that God begins to set things in a specific order and to give them function and purpose in preparation for His Masterpiece work: the arrival of mankind; “and let them, (mankind), rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the livestock and over all the earth, and over every crawling thing that crawls on the earth.”

AN ODD THING

In the midst of His creation work, an odd thing occurs.  This is an event, an occurrence in the creation of mankind, which is completely overlooked by the vast majority, if not all, Bible teachers. This is a bit technical, but please pay particular attention, as this is a game-changer.

(Please note: Asterisks will be used to indicate importance only).

Genesis 1, Verse 27. “So, God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.”

PLEASE NOTE: The following is very technical and uses the Hebrew language, translations and transliterations. You may skip the sections (in green text) if you wish and continue reading the regular text.

Genesis 1, Verse 27. So, God = (Elohim = God; very great, mighty; Plural of ‘elowahh; gods in the ordinary sense; but specifically used in the plural. Signifying, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit)

created = (bara’ = to shape, create, a formative process, ‘to make fat’);

man = (from ‘adam’; man, mankind. ruddy i.e. A human being (an individual or the species, mankind)

*in His own image = (tselem = an image; a mere, empty, image, semblance; image, vain show, from an unused root meaning to shade; a phantom, i.e., an illusion, a resemblance; hence, a representative figure, especially an idol, an image, a vain shew, of dubious character.)

*in the image = (tselem = an image; a mere, empty, image, semblance; image, vain show, from an unused root meaning to shade; a phantom, i.e., an illusion, a resemblance; hence, a representative figure, especially an idol, an image, a vain shew, of dubious character.)

of God = (Elohim = God; very great, mighty; Plural of ‘elowahh; gods in the ordinary sense; but specifically used in the plural. Signifying, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit)

He created = (bara’ = to shape, create, a formative process, ‘to make fat’.)

him; male = ( zakar = A male)

and female = ( naqab = female, from the sexual form.)

He created them = created = (bara’ = to shape, create, a formative process, ‘to make fat’);

When Genesis 1, Verse 27 is transliterated from the Hebrew language, in order to get a more detailed meaning and image, they would read as such:

**“So, God, very great and mighty, the plural of ‘elowahh, specifically used in the plural, signifying that this is God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, created, shaped through a formative process to make fat, man, that is, mankind. ruddy i.e., a human being, an individual of the species of mankind, in His own image, in the image an image; a mere, empty, image, semblance; image, vain show, from an unused root meaning to shade; a phantom, i.e., an illusion, a resemblance; hence, a representative figure, especially an idol, an image, a vain shew, of dubious character, yet of God, having potential of being very great, mighty, and consisting as a plural in the ordinary sense, He created him, shaped, created, through a formative process, to make fat; male and female He created them.”

Recap of what we are seeing:

      1. God, used in plural, representing God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, created, shaped and formed mankind.
      2. God created mankind ‘in His Own image’ but, as a mere image of Himself; a vain show, just a shadow of the Original; an image, in icon, a phantom pattern, an illusion, a mere resemblance; a being of dubious nature.  (God has deliberately made man and woman with a flaw, destined them to fail.)

***PLEASE NOTE: This cannot be overemphasized. This is crucial to understanding the rest of creation, ‘the fall’, sin, death, redemption the coming of Christ and, ultimately, End of the Age, the destruction and the heavens and the earth and the making of a new heaven and a new earth.

Verse 28. God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Verse 29. Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; Verse 30, and to every animal of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to everything that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every green plant for food”; and it was so. Verse 31. And God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.”  Genesis, chapter two, verses one through three, record the completion of creation.

ITS NOT SWAMP GOO

Then, beginning in verse four, the Bible recounts God’s creation of man and woman in great detail. A careful study reveals some startling facts. Read with me:

Genesis 2, Verse 7, says, “Then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living person.” 

Let’s look at the words in this verse in the language of the Bible, which is Hebrew. (Please be patient and deliberate, here.)

 Now, let’s add the Hebrew translations to these words to clarify their meaning (you can browse this if you like, because I will reassemble all this with its meaning and significance):

Then the LORD God = Yahweh = Jehovah, the Lord, = hayah = (the) self-Existent or Eternal; Jehovah, Jewish national name of God — Jehovah, the Lord.

 “formed = yatsar = earthen, fashion, form, frame, maker, potter, purpose; Through the squeezing into shape; to mould into a form; especially as a potter; figuratively, to determine.

 God = Elohim = God; very great, mighty; Plural of ‘elowahh; gods in the ordinary sense; but specifically used in the plural. Signifying, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

man = adam = From ‘adam; ruddy; a human being, an individual or the species, mankind + hypocrite, + common sort, + low man, of mean, of low degree; a person.

 (from) the dust = aphar = dust (as powdered or gray); hence, clay, earth, mud — ashes, dust, earth, ground, mortar, powder, rubbish.

 of the ground = ‘adam = soil (from its general redness) — country, earth, ground, husband, husbandry, land.

 and breathed = naphach = blow, breath, give up, cause to lose life, seething, snuff;

 into his nostrils = anaph = a nostril, nose, face, anger; from the rapid breathing in passion, ire, angry.

 the breath = nasham; a puff, angry or vital breath, divine inspiration, intellect. blast, that breaths, inspiration, soul, spirit

 of life = chayah = alive; hence, raw flesh; alive, with appetite, of a wild beast, lively.

 and became = hayah = to fall out, come to pass, become, be.

 the man = adam = from ‘adam’; man, mankind. ruddy i.e. A human being (an individual or the species, mankind.

 a being = nephesh = from naphash; properly, a breathing creature.

 Living = chay = from chayah; alive; living; hence, raw (flesh).

When Genesis 2, Verse 7, is transliterated from the Hebrew language, in order to get a more detailed meaning and image, they would read as such:

“Then the LORD Jehovah, the Self-Existent, Eternal God, formed, fashion, and framed, as maker and potter, with purpose, through the squeezing into shape the man, a ruddy a human being, into an individual or the species, mankind, a hypocrite, a common sort, a low man, of mean and of low degree, a person, of dust, ashes, earth, mortar, powder and rubbish from the ground soil, from its general redness, as husbandry-land, and breathed breath, giving up part of Himself, causing Himself to lose life, as seething, and snuffing into nostrils, and the face, by rapid breathing, in passion, ire, and anger,

the breath, by an angry puff of vital breath, of divine inspiration and intellect, blasts of breaths of inspiration, soul and spirit, of life, hence, raw flesh came alive, with the appetites of a wild beast, lively; and the man, ruddy a human being, an individual of the species, mankind,

became a breathing creature a living person, alive, living, hence, raw flesh.”

Recap of what we see:

      1. God, has always existed and He is eternal.
      2. He is the creator of life.
      3. He creates with purpose and on purpose.
      4. This creation has all the imagery of childbirth: ruddy, squeezed, passionate, violent, painful, raw and costly.
      5. A being of passion with a wild nature and base appetites is created. Mankind is created with flaws, destined to fail, condemned to death and separation from God.

The reasonable thing to do, here, would be to follow the sequence of events which follow: The fall of mankind, the pronouncement of the curse, their banishment from the Garden of Eden, their separation from God and the events that follow. But, all of that is recorded in the Bible for you to read. This is an overview of those events with the purpose of discovering how we got to where we are now, how this ends and what we are to do in response to these “Latter Days” leading to “The Last Days” and  the “End This Age”.

PERFECTION – Chapter 2 -If there is God

Chapter 2

 IF THERE IS GOD

 DID HE CREATE ALL OF THIS?

Genesis 1:1, says, “In the beginning God, (אֱלהִים, Elohim), created the heavens and the earth. Verse 2. And the earth was a formless and desolate emptiness, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Verse 3. Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. Verse 4. God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. Verse 5. God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening and there was morning, one day.” (etcetera).

So, yes. God, Elohim, created all of this.

I will say again, since there is no credible way to deny that GOD IS, then I will continue to base our thesis on that fact that GOD IS.

(NOTE: If you want to pursue a study on the existence of God, please do so. I would recommend studying the Bible with a good concordance.  Also, find some serious theological studies which strive to fairly examine the existence of God and the manifest evidence that God exists. (Sort of like quarks and dark matter. You can’t prove them experientially, but you know they exist by what occurs).

Chapter 1

 DOES GOD EXIST?

A good place to start is for you to decide if God really does exist.  I am not equipped to deal with philosophy, existential thought or superstition. So, I will make this a short chapter by saying, “God Is”.  Why?  Because those thousands who have seriously pursued God and have invested their entire lives to that end, have also recorded what they have found in a book.  That book is the Bible, and the Bible says that GOD IS.

Hence, the basis, or foundation, for my thesis: “GOD IS”.

You may choose to go with the idea that Science is a more reliable source, and that is fine. But science is a relatively new field of study which has only recently explored the beginning of all things through a theory called the Big Bang. That theory has been revised a number of times and, in fact, is currently being reevaluated for accuracy – since it does not adequately fit current scientific mathematical models. And, science largely, if not completely, dismisses the idea of GOD or any ‘higher being’ having a hand in the creation of everything.

The only things I, or you, can know about God is what we have personally experienced or what has been written by those who have experienced God.  We find those records in the Bible. Therefore, I will use the Bible’s extensive writings, original languages, as best I can, keeping this study in the Biblical context that says, “there is a beginning and there will be an end and there is a purpose and a reason for it all”.

– INTRODUCTION –

IN SEARCH OF PERFECTION

“For we know in part and prophesy in part; but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away with.” 1 Corinthians 13:9-10

I am presenting a very brief and a very simple overview of a biblical timeline, from the Creation to the New Heavens and the new earth, which complete God’s Plan as found in the Bible.  It will be an abbreviated history of how God has created the world, dealt with the people He created, and why the world has gone the way it has gone and how it will conclude.

This is not designed to please everyone, and it will not fit every different denominational doctrine correct. Instead, this book is meant to

  • Inform,
  • Inspire, and to
  • Ignite people to move toward the One Living God and to join Him in what He is doing!

I hope that my Christian friends, and others who read this, don’t find this objectionable solely because I have omitted certain events. However, it is my intention to inform and inspire, NOT to overwhelm the reader with volumes of information.

God’s plan is unfolding exactly as He purposed; from The Creation, through the Garden of Eden and the Fall of Man to the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, the Exodus from Egypt, the possessing of The Promised Land, the Destruction of the First Temple and the Captivity in Babylon, the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus, the Destruction of the Second Temple, our steady march through time has been exactly as Bible prophecy has foretold.  We have entered an era leading to the destruction and, eventually, a rebirth of the heavens and the earth.

The Purpose of God’s Eternal Plan is Perfection.  He is maturing and perfecting His people into His image, ultimately to live in Perfect harmony with Him and with one another, in a New and Perfect heaven and earth.

Each and every chapter, verse and word in the Bible, when viewed within this context of  God’s Eternal Plan of Perfection, begins to make perfect sense.

The world has entered the final epoch of time, known by various names, such as, “The Last Days”, “The End of The Age” the “Latter Days” and “The Tribulation”, which was marked by the birth of Jesus.  There are reportedly visible and observable signs and ancient writings to help you, if you believe in such things. However, most people either don’t recognize the signs or writings or don’t believe. Even among those who believe these prophecies are coming to pass and see the signs, few know what they are seeing, where they are leading or what to do in response.

The best description of the purpose, length and, outcome of this end time, also known as the Great Tribulation, (see Matthew 24:21, Revelation 2:22 and Revelation 7:14) or the Wrath of the Lamb, (see Revelation 6:16), is found in Daniel 12:1,

“Now at that time Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will arise. And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued. Verse 2. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and everlasting contempt. Verse 3. And those who have insight will shine like the glow of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. Verse 4. But as for you, Daniel, keep these words secret and seal up the book until the end of time; many will roam about, and knowledge will increase.”

Verse 5. Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the stream and the other on that bank of the stream. Verse 6. And someone said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?” Verse 7. And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, as he raised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever that it would be for a time, times, and half a time; and as soon as they finish smashing the power of the holy people, all these events will be completed. Verse 8. But as for me, I heard but did not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these events?”  Verse 9. And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words will be kept secret and sealed up until the end time. Verse 10. Many will be purged, cleansed, and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but  those who have insight will understand. Verse 11. And from the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. Verse 12. Blessed is the one who is patient and attains to the 1,335 days! Verse 13. But as for you, go your way to the end; then you will rest and rise for your allotted portion at the end of the age.”

RECAP of Daniel 12:1-13 :

  1. And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people,
  2. everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued.Verse 2. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and everlasting contempt. 
  3. Verse 3. And those who have insight will shine like the glow of the expanse of heaven,
  4. and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.Verse 4. But as for you, Daniel, keep these words secret and seal up the book until the end of time; many will roam about, and knowledge will increase.”Verse 5. Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the stream and the other on that bank of the stream. Verse 6. And someone said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream,
  5. “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?”Verse 7. And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, as he raised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever that

(a)  it would be for a time, times, and half a time; and as soon as they finish smashing the power of the holy people, all these events will be completed. Verse 8. But as for me, I heard but did not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these events?”  Verse 9. And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words will be kept secret and sealed up until the end time.

  1. Verse 10. Many will be purged, cleansed, and refined,but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but  those who have insight will understand.
  2. Verse 11. And from the time that the regular sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days.Verse 12.

(a)  Blessed is the one who is patient and attains to the 1,335 days! Verse 13. But as for you, go your way to the end; then you will rest and rise for your allotted portion at the end of the age.”

Not surprisingly, the main interest in this subject is in the sensationalism of the matter; and sadly, both fictional and religious writers are profiteering and capitalizing on the subject financially.  All-the-while, assuming these things are true, they are grossly ignoring the urgency and the catastrophic ramifications which are being played out.

This subject is classified as “Eschatology”, which is the study of final events of history, or the ultimate destiny of humanity. The word comes from the Greek word, éschatos, meaning “last” and ‘logy’ meaning “the study of”.  Most of the major religious denominations which teach this doctrine believe it will come on the world suddenly, with an increasing intensity and will last for just seven years. This view is from a myopic view of the Bible’s history time line, and the Bible seems to tell a much different version of these events.

A study of the ‘long view’ of the Bible on this subject, will show that the End of This Age was  planned before creation. God, indeed “has a plan for your life” as He has had a plan for the entire world.

It has taken many millennium, and we may still have many years to go.  But, I suppose when you are dealing with an Eternal God who has no beginning and no end, time is not a factor. God can take all the ‘time’ He wants to execute His plan.

WATCHING FOR THE CLUES

Please come with me and let’s explore God’s Plan for creation. First, let’s consider the ‘Beginning of All Things’. Then, as we travel together, we will uncover clues to this mystery, this riddle of the ‘End of the Age’, evaluate writings and assimilate this information to decide – How did we get here and where is all of this going?

We are in search of His Perfection, and it could change your life and the way you live it.

PREFACE

 “Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others were standing, one on this bank of the stream and the other on that bank of the stream. And someone said to the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, “How long will it be until the end of these wonders?” And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, as he raised his right hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever that it would be for a time, times, and half a time; and as soon as they finish smashing the power of the holy people, all these events will be completed. But as for me, I heard but did not understand; so, I said, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these events?” And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words will be kept secret and sealed up until the end time. Many will be purged, cleansed, and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will understand.” Daniel 12:5-10

 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2

THE JOURNEY TOWARD PERFECTION

~ Michael Young, Sr. ~ Leave a comment

THE JOURNEY TOWARD

PERFECTION

 

In the beginning, God created.

He began with the imperfect and created the Masterpiece, first in the heavens and then on the earth. His work completed in just seven days; He would allow His Masterpiece to mature for many a millennium until it became His Perfection.

This is a journey of discovery and revelation of God’s Grand Plan and Design, from creation through the End of the Age, then into a New Heaven and a New Earth.

This is a non-academic thesis on the reasons for WHAT God is doing in these Last Days and WHY He is doing it this way. My prayer is that, after reading this, everything you’ve wondered about the reasoning behind God’s Plan for the world and your life, will fall into place.

By: Michael J. Young, Sr., evangelist, pastor, teacher.

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2

Joe Biden Has ‘Secretly’ Sold Out America!

H.R.1319 – American Rescue Plan Act of 2021

Although the A.R.P.A., the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 portends to be a budgetary disaster for the future of America and the demise of our way of life, have you ever wondered why most of the media outlets, most universities and colleges, most corporations, many state legislatures and governors, practically every government agency and even the American Medical Association support Joe Biden’s $2 trillion American Rescue Act Plan in one way or another?

The American Rescue Act Plan is being touted as a plan to “give financial relief to state, local, territorial, and tribal government agencies are facing unprecedented strain in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, and the Federal Government is working tirelessly on the necessary steps to supply these entities with critical funding. The American Rescue Plan Act provides a substantial infusion of resources to eligible state, local, territorial, and tribal governments to help reverse the negative impacts of the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery.”  (See the ‘A.R.P.A. ‘fact sheet’).

LAST NAIL

IN OUR COFFIN?

The American Rescue Act is advertised as a plan to rescue America from the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, but in reality it is a plan luring America into the United Nation’s Socialist-Marxist web in order to complete the establishment of their New World Order and One World Government.

Besides offering medical and technical support to fight the highly publicized  “COVID–19 pandemic and the corresponding economic crisis which have undermined the health and economic wellbeing of American workers“ the A.R.P.A. of 2021 has budgeted almost $2,000,000,000,000 (that’s trillions), in funds for all sorts of Socialist wealth redistribution schemes.

Every agency in the U.S. Government is being bought out, every corporation, media outlet, university or college, every state legislature and state govenor is being given incentives as sort of a ‘bribe-by-another-name’, by way of pay-offs using billions of our tax dollars disguised as ‘incentives’, but are in fact bait to lure America into a Socialist-Marxists scheme of a One World Government.

I.  WHERE THIS BEGAN – (AND WHERE THIS IS GOING)

First, to make this point clear, let’s look where this relationship between the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, (A.R.P.A.) and the United Nation’s Agenda 21, Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals, (S.D.G.), and where they began and where this relationship leads.

Then we will see how these United Nation’s Agendas are being implemented and funded through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.

First, please Read this introduction by the Commission for Global Governance.  “The task before the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, (UNESCO)”, said its first Director-General Julian Huxley in 1946, “is the emergence of a single world culture by transferring full sovereignty from separate nations to a world organization.

“The “new world order” will be a socialist, authoritarian global government and court with “global rule of law” and a “one-world economy”.

The recommendations of the Commission on Global Governance, if implemented, will bring all the people of the world into a global neighborhood managed by a world-wide bureaucracy, under the direct authority of a minute handful of appointed individuals, and policed by thousands of individuals, paid by accredited NGOs, certified to support a belief system which contains ideas that are foreign to the American experience, and ignores other values and ideas that are precious to the American experience.

AGENDA 21 – WHAT IS IT?

Further evidence is found in Agenda 21 documents. Agenda 21 initially claimed to be a comprehensive plan of action to be taken globally, nationally and locally by organizations of the United Nations System, Governments, and Major Groups in every area in which human impacts on the environment.

Agenda 21, the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development, and the Statement of principles for the Sustainable Management of Forests were adopted by more than 178 Governments at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 3 to 14 June 1992.

A link to this document can be found at: Agency-21 sustainable development documents.

Although touted as ‘a non-binding resolution’ this UN agency formed The Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD) in December 1992 to ensure effective follow-up of UNCED, to monitor and report on implementation of the agreements at the local, national, regional and international levels. It was agreed that a five-year review of Earth Summit progress would be made in 1997 by the United Nations General Assembly meeting in special session.

The full implementation of Agenda 21, the Program for Further Implementation of Agenda 21 and the Commitments to the Rio principles, were strongly reaffirmed at the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) held in Johannesburg, South Africa from 26 August to 4 September 2002.

There was a World Summit on Sustainable Development, held in New York City, NY, USA, September 15-17, 2015,, in which a date of 2030 has been set for complete global dominance by this Marxist global movement.

Finally, the next World Summit on Sustainable Development will be held on February 16-18, 2022

Agenda 21 has now become involved in forty areas ranging from SOCIAL and ECONOMIC DIMENSIONS to poverty, consumption issues, health matters, deforestation, legal instruments and implementation and everything in between, including The World Health Organization, which is closely allied to and aligned with the World Summit on Sustainable Development.  The World Health Organization has revamped their website to conceal this fact.  Their previous web address was https://www.who.int/wssd/en/, but when you click the link you will find they have concealed any mention of the WSSD.

The United States is a signatory country to Agenda 21. But adherents quickly remind us that because Agenda 21 is “a legally non-binding statement of intent” and not a treaty, the United States Senate did not hold a formal debate or vote on it. It is therefore not considered to be law under Article Six of the United States Constitution, or say they say.

However, President GEORGE H.W. BUSH was one of the 178 heads of government who signed the final text of the agreement at the Earth Summit in 1992, and in the same year Representatives NANCY PELOSI, Eliot Engel and William Broomfield spoke in support of United States House of Representatives Concurrent Resolution 353, supporting implementation of Agenda 21 in the United States.

Then president, BILL CLINTON, signed a 1993 Executive Order, creating the President’s Council on Sustainable Development (PCSD) is explicitly charged with recommending a national action plan for sustainable development to the President. So, bypassing Congress, Clinton, made it law.

The President’s Council on Sustainable Development is composed of leaders from government and industry, as well as from environmental, labor and civil rights organizations.

The President’s Council on Sustainable Development submitted its report, “Sustainable America: A New Consensus”, to the President in early 1996. In the absence of a multi-sectoral consensus on how to achieve sustainable development in the United States, the President’s Council on Sustainable Development was conceived to formulate recommendations for the implementation of Agenda 21.

II.  WHERE THIS IS NOW – (AND WHERE THIS IS GOING)

Agenda 21 is now known as Agenda 2030, designationg the year that this agenda and the sustainable development goals are achieved.

In the United States, over 528 American cities are members of “Local Governments for Sustainability” or “ICLEI”, is an international Marxist and Socialist leaning sustainability organization, that helps to implement the Agenda 21 and Local Agenda 21 concepts across the world. The United States has nearly half of the ICLEI’s global membership of 1,200 cities promoting sustainable development at a local level.

The United States also has one of the most comprehensively documented Agenda 2030 status reports. In response to the opposition, Don Knapp, U.S. spokesman for the ICLEI, has said “Sustainable development is not a top-down conspiracy from the U.N., but a bottom-up push from local governments”.

III.  WHERE THIS IS NOW – (THE RELATIONSHIPS)

Next, by comparing President Joe Biden’s and the American democrat party’s American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, and  by specifically studying the table of content topics, you will find the direct link between the A.R.P.A. to the United Nations’ Globalist-Socialist-Marxists Agenda 2030 and their Sustainable Development Goals of that Agenda.

  • Please pay particular attention to the Titles, subtitles, objectives and goals of the sustainable goals outlined in the U.N. Marxist Agenda 2030, as they are repeated in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, authored and sponsored by the American democrat party.
  • Also pay attention to the ‘coincidental completion dates’ as they mirror the Agenda 2030 dates, as well.
  • Here is the final review of the American Rescue Plan, by Republican Senator Roy Blunt, Chairman Republican Committee.

Buried deep within the U.S. Government document, PUBLIC LAW 117–2—MAR. 11, 2021, known as the ‘American Rescue Plan of 2021’, is the heretofore unmentioned caveat that any person or organization receiving funds “Must comply with all other applicable Federal statutes, regulations, and Executive orders, and a recipient shall provide for compliance with the American Rescue Plan Act, this subpart, and any interpretive guidance by other parties in any agreements it enters into with other parties relating to these funds.”

In other words, according to the American Rescue Plan Act, in the roughly 215 areas being funded,

Anyone receiving funds, “Must comply with all other applicable Federal statutes, regulations, and Executive orders, and a recipient shall provide for compliance with the American Rescue Plan Act, this subpart, and any interpretive guidance by other parties in any agreements it enters into with other parties relating to these funds.”

FOR EXAMPLE, according to the American Rescue Plan Act, which is a law, if The Secretary of Agriculture does not strictly adhere to the A.R.P.A. (American Rescue Plan Act) Title 31,  Subtitle A, Part 35, Subpart A,   § 35.9,  when purchasing commodities to be disbursed to people in need and facilitate grants and loans to small and midsize food processors and distributors, as well as grants and loans to bolster supply chains, and IF the Secretary of Agriculture does not comply with any executive order mandating a Covid-19 vaccination or the wearing of a mask, he or she would be in in violation of the law and funding is stopped, the Secretary could be charged with an illegal offense, removed from office and or jailed.

Provides a payment to each “socially disadvantaged farmer or rancher” with an outstanding USDA farm loan, in an amount up to 120% of his or her outstanding indebtedness. CBO scores this at a cost of $4 billion. But, if that “SOCIALLY DISADVANTAGED” farmer or rancher fails to obey each law and each executive order by Joe Biden, he or she can lose the free money, be prosecuted and jailed.

(For a full review of the areas being funded see H.R. 319 – The American Resecue Plan Act of 2021 – Final Text or see the PUBLIC LAW 117–2—MAR. 11, 2021, The American Rescuse Plan Act 2021.)

WHERE THIS IS NOW – (AND WHERE THIS IS GOING)

H.R. Bill 1319, PUBLIC LAW 117–2—MAR. 11, 2021, signed into law by President Joe Biden, known was the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021,  purportedly “provides additional relief to address the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, public health, State and local governments, individuals, and businesses“.  The written documents of this law refers to Title 31 of the Code of Federal Regulations, (which is the codification of the general and permanent regulations published in the Federal Register by the executive departments and agencies of the federal government of the United States).

Two of the references in the American Rescue Plan Act refer specifically to Title 31, Subtitle A, Part 35, Subpart A, section 35.4 and section 35.9 of the Code of Federal Regulations which say:

§ 35.9 – A recipient must comply with all other applicable Federal statutes, regulations, and executive orders, and a recipient shall provide for compliance with the American Rescue Plan Act, this subpart, and any interpretive guidance by other parties in any agreements it enters into with other parties relating to these funds. 

§ 35.4 (c) – False statements or claims made to the Secretary may result in criminal, civil, or administrative sanctions, including fines, imprisonment, civil damages and penalties, debarment from participating in Federal awards or contracts, and/or any other remedy available by law. 

So, if you comply and obey, you get paid. If you play along, you get paid. If you get paid and don’t obey ‘all other applicable Federal statutes, regulations, and executive orders’, and ‘and any interpretive guidance by other parties in any agreements it enters into with other parties relating to these funds’, you can be fined and go to jail.

If you don’t go along and obey, it ‘may result in criminal, civil, or administrative sanctions, including fines, imprisonment, civil damages and penalties, debarment from participating in Federal awards or contracts, and/or any other remedy available by law’.  In other words, you are marginalized and ‘cancelled’ the the ‘woke cultures’ propagated by the U.S. Government.

This is tantamount to bribery and extortion from the highest levels of government.

FINALLY, if this isn’t enough, please review the Washington Standard publication from February 18, 2022, titled, “ALERT: 2030 Psychological Agenda – Obedience Training for Pre-K through Adults.”

As troubling as all of this seems, it has already been foretold. The Bible has warned  this was coming. Inform yourself and find your way through it:  The Journey Toward Perfection

Your Brother and Friend,

Mike Young

WE ARE GETTING IT WRONG – An Exposé

Another example of how we and the media (and yes, even Fox News) are either misunderstanding why the LEFTIST are doing WHAT they are doing, the WAY they are doing it, or they are lying. Or perhaps they are deliberately misreporting the news in order to stir emotions to increase viewership for monetary reasons.

To Wit:

“Smiley Martin, 27, was arrested by the Sacramento Police Department on Tuesday. His role in the deadly encounter remains unclear, yet his criminal history is in focus. He served only four years of a 10-year prison sentence, being released in February over objections from the local prosecutor.

“The Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office strongly opposed Smiley Martin’s release from the 10-year prison sentence in a letter last year, the Sacramento Bee reported, citing public record documents.

“Inmate Martin’s criminal conduct is violent and lengthy,” wrote Deputy District Attorney Danielle Abildgaard in a two-page letter to the Board of Parole Hearings on April 29, 2021.

“In the correspondence, Abildgaard outlines Martin’s criminal history dating back to 2013, which include multiple robberies, firearms violations, and providing false information to police.”

FOX NEWS’ afternoon broadcast, “THE FIVE”, led by Greg Gutfield, discussed criminal Smiley Martin, emphasizing his early release from prison over the objections of DDA Danielle Abildgaard, who said if Smiley is released he will continue to commit crimes and would likely hurt someone.

THE FIVE’s conversation focused around the poor judgment, liberal ideology and stupidity of the parole office for releasing him. The criticism of Leftist thought and behavior brought to mind the unspoken question, “Why do they do that” when the results are almost always dreadful or deadly?

This seems to be conservative’s standard response to Leftist politics and ideologies: Complain, criticize and ask ‘why do they do what they do the way they do it’? The implications of this approach is that Leftist and those who ‘lean Left’ are just that way; it is how they apply what they believe. And that may be correct for most individual Leftists. But, not for the media, politicians, policymakers and those in power.

The ‘higher ups’ know exactly what they are doing, and for a more sinister reason than we give them credit for. They are creating policies and weakening (or altogether ignoring laws) to encourage civil disorder, terror in our streets and general chaos. They are abrogating our constitution and dismantling our system of justice in order to implement a Socialist and Marxist system. They are creating a crisis, a need for law and order, so they can step in and solve our problems with a new form of government.

This is evidenced by the case of Smiley Martin and others like him. You can also see this occurring through the destruction of the nuclear family system, homosexual rights and transgender rights over personal rights, the destruction of women’s sports by transgenders, abortion, the push to legalize some forms of pedophilia, teaching Critical Race Theory in our schools, the fallacies and politicization of global warming and climate change, to name just a few.

America’s way of life is being effectively replaced with the United Nation’s Agenda 2030 and their Sustainable Development Goals, funded and driven in part by the World Economic Forum.

The forerunner of Agenda 2030, (Agenda 21), was introduced into the United States by President GEORGE H.W. BUSH as one of the 178 heads of government who signed the final text of the agreement at the Earth Summit in 1992, and in the same year Representatives NANCY PELOSI, Eliot Engel and William Broomfield spoke in support of United States House of Representatives Concurrent Resolution 353, supporting implementation of Agenda 21 in the United States.

The United States was a signatory country to Agenda 21, but adherents quickly reminded us that because Agenda 21 is “a legally non-binding statement of intent” and not a treaty, the United States Senate did not hold a formal debate or vote on it. It is therefore not considered to be law under Article Six of the United States Constitution, or so they say.

However, former president, BILL CLINTON, signed a 1993 Executive Order, creating the President’s Council on Sustainable Development (PCSD) is explicitly charged with recommending a national action plan for sustainable development to the President. So, bypassing Congress, Clinton, made it law.

Next, the President’s Council on Sustainable Development is composed of leaders from government and industry, as well as from environmental, labor and civil rights organizations.

The President’s Council on Sustainable Development submitted its report, “Sustainable America: A New Consensus”, to the President in early 1996. In the absence of a multi-sectoral consensus on how to achieve sustainable development in the United States, the President’s Council on Sustainable Development was conceived to formulate recommendations for the implementation of Agenda 21.

In the United States, over 528 American cities are members of “Local Governments for Sustainability” or “ICLEI”, is an international Marxist and Socialist leaning sustainability organization, that helps to implement the Agenda 21 and Local Agenda 21 concepts across the world. The United States has nearly half of the ICLEI’s global membership of 1,200 cities promoting sustainable development at a local level.

The United States also has one of the most comprehensively documented Agenda 21 status reports. In response to the opposition, Don Knapp, U.S. spokesman for the ICLEI, has said “Sustainable development is not a top-down conspiracy from the U.N., but a bottom-up push from local governments”. 

Finally, Joe Biden’s “American Rescue Act Plan” is the final push to fund and implement this plan as a means to end America’s national sovereignty and merge the United States into the United Nations’ confederation

“The American Rescue Act Plan” is being touted as a plan to “give financial relief to state, local, territorial, and tribal government agencies are facing unprecedented strain in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, and the Federal Government is working tirelessly on the necessary steps to supply these entities with critical funding. The American Rescue Plan Act provides a substantial infusion of resources to eligible state, local, territorial, and tribal governments to help reverse the negative impacts of the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery.”  (See the ‘A.R.P.A. ‘fact sheet’).

 Every agency in the U.S. Government is being bought out, every corporation, media outlet, university or college, every state legislature and state Governor is being given incentives as a sort of ‘bribe-by-another-name’, by way of payoffs using billions of our tax dollars disguised as ‘incentives’, but are in fact bait to lure America into a Socialist-Marxists scheme of a One World Government.

First, to make this point clear, let’s look where this relationship between the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, (A.R.P.A.) and the United Nation’s Agenda 21, Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals, (S.D.G.), and where they began and where this relationship leads.

Then we will see how these United Nation’s Agendas are being implemented and funded through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.

First, please Read this introduction by the Commission for Global Governance.  “The task before UNESCO,” said its first Director-General Julian Huxley in 1946, “is the emergence of a single world culture by transferring full sovereignty from separate nations to a world organization.

The “new world order” will be a socialist, authoritarian global government and court with “global rule of law” and a “one-world economy,”.

The recommendations of the Commission on Global Governance, if implemented, will bring all the people of the world into a global neighborhood managed by a world-wide bureaucracy, under the direct authority of a minute handful of appointed individuals, and policed by thousands of individuals, paid by accredited NGOs, certified to support a belief system which contains ideas that are foreign to the American experience, and ignores other values and ideas that are precious to the American experience. (For the complete article on this relationship between the United States and the United Nations Agenda-2030, see “EXPLOSIVE DOCUMENTS – THE SECRET BUYOUT OF AMERICA.”

These Leftist are well-trained and well organized and have been working diligently over the last 75 years and are on the verge of accomplishing all of their original goals and most of the evolving goals of the United Nation’s Agenda 2030.

So the question should not be “Why are they doing what they do the way they are doing it?” because we should already know WHY. Neither should we ask, “How can they be so stupid or hateful?”

They, The Leftist-Globalists-Socialists-Marxists-Communists, are very well-educated and dedicated to accomplish their objectives. They truly believe they can solve the world’s problems and enter a new Socialist Utopia, a new golden age.

The Bible has foretold of these events and what will follow. If you are interested and have the time, read this short article “GOD’S PLAN FOR PERFECTION – Prophecy, World History and the Tribulation”.  Then, if you will take the time, at the bottom of that web page read the book “THE JOURNEY TO PERFECTION” in either PDF format or as an online digital book. (I really urge you to read it because it gives clear steps on WHAT OUR RESPONSE SHOULD BE.)

GOD’S PLAN FOR PERFECTION – Prophecy, World History and the Tribulation

~ Michael Young, Sr. ~ Leave a comment

(You can listen by audio; pause the audio to follow page links, then, when you are ready, resume the audio. Please note: I use page links in lieu of footnotes and references.)

Our world is careening out of control. Everything we have known as good in recorded history is being called evil; and all things evil are being called good; The world substitutes darkness for light and light for darkness, bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

The Liberal Left, however, will tell you that all is well and that we have entered a New World Order, a Great World Reset is at hand.

This short video will give you a glimpse of what is being sold as this New World, but in reality it is the same tired old saga of the Marxists Utopia.  The claims are the outrageous imagination of the world’s Globalists-Socialists and Marxists.

Having and promoting unrealistic promises as reality is nothing new, except every single previous promise of a Socialist, Communist, Leninist, Marxist government or social structure, or any variant of the same, has always ended in tyranny, despotism, wars, loss of personal freedom, lack of basic needs, poverty and the death of millions.

If you will patiently walk with me, I will take you on an amazing journey. A journey from the beginning of time through recorded world and Biblical histories. We will identify important past Bible prophecies and correlate them to the actual past world events; then we will compare both prophecies and histories to one specific prophecy known as ‘Daniel’s Seventy Weeks’, which will bring us to current events and the final epoch of time known by various names, such as, “The Last Days”, “The End The Age” the “Latter Days” and “The Tribulation”, which are now unfolding with frightening accuracy.

I will not stop there, however. I will conclude by laying out a successful response to these events, a plan of action by which you can both survive and thrive in these final days.

Finally, there is an event coming which is so fantastic as to be unbelievable. But I will show the evidence leading to this event, known as the ‘Rapture’ and I will even help you calculate the odds of its occurrence.  You will then be faced with the most monumental decision you have ever faced. You don’t want to miss this.

We will take a journey assisted by a book aptly titled ‘The Journey to Perfection’.  Our travels will coordinate Bible Prophecy, Biblical and World Histories culminating with The End of Days’. You can read this book either as a digital ONLINE book or in a PDF format, (see both versions below).

After finishing “THE JOURNEY TO PERFECTION“, you will want to read “Effective Spiritual Warfare“, “America Under Siege” and “Agenda 2030, The U.N., Global Marxism“. Now…

PERFECTION

In the beginning, God created.

He began with the imperfect and created the Masterpiece, first in the heavens and then on the earth. His work completed in just seven days; He would allow His Masterpiece to mature for a millennium until it became His Perfection.

This is a journey of discovery and revelation of God’s Grand Plan and Design, from creation through the End of the Age, then into a New Heaven and a New Earth.

This is a non-academic thesis on the reasons for WHAT God is doing in these Last Days and WHY He is doing it this way. My prayer is that, after reading this, everything you’ve wondered about the reasoning behind God’s Plan for the world and your life, will fall into place.

By: Michael J. Young, Sr., evangelist, pastor, teacher.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.”

NEXT:  THE JOURNEY TO PERFECTION – IN THE BEGINNING.

AGENDA 2030, THE U.N., GLOBAL MARXISM

~ Michael Young, Sr. ~ 1 Comment

(You can listen by audio; pause the audio to follow page links, then, when you are ready, resume the audio. Please note: I use page links in lieu of footnotes and references.)

Globalist-Marxists are known to be the driving force and top echelon of the United Nations as well as controlling the Democrat Party in America. They and their various adherents and factions around the world say that humankind is responsible for destroying the earth by depleting our natural resources and by polluting the land, the seas, lakes and streams and the air. There is no truth to these claims. It is a political ploy, a lie. Yet the Globalist cabal say it is factual and that they have the solution. It is seductively named “The Agenda for Sustainable Development”.

It began under the name of “Agenda 21”. The Twenty-one is a designation for ‘the 21st century”. Agenda 21 is a comprehensive plan of action to be taken globally, nationally and locally by organizations of the United Nations System, Governments, and Major Groups in every area in which human impacts on the environment. The Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD) was created in December 1992 to ensure effective follow-up of UNCED, to monitor and report on implementation of the agreements at the local, national, regional and international levels. It was agreed that a five year review of Earth Summit progress would be made in 1997 by the United Nations General Assembly meeting in special session.

The Newest name for this United Nations organization is ‘Agenda 2030’. ‘Twenty-thirty’ designates the year their goals of Global domination will be completed.

The Sustainable Development Goals or Global Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked global goals designed to be a “blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all”. The SDGs were set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and are intended to be achieved by the year 2030’.

The Preamble of the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” (Agenda 2030) says, in part:

“This Agenda is a plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. It also seeks to strengthen universal peace in larger freedom. We recognize that eradicating poverty in all its forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, is the greatest global challenge and an indispensable requirement for sustainable development. All countries and all stakeholders, acting in collaborative partnership, will implement this plan. We are resolved to free the human race from the tyranny of poverty and want and to heal and secure our planet. We are determined to take the bold and transformative steps which are urgently needed to shift the world onto a sustainable and resilient path. As we embark on this collective journey, we pledge that no one will be left behind. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets which we are announcing today demonstrate the scale and ambition of this new universal Agenda. They seek to build on the Millennium Development Goals and complete what these did not achieve. They seek to realize the human rights of all and to achieve gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls. They are integrated and indivisible and balance the three dimensions of sustainable development: the economic, social and environmental.

The Goals and targets will stimulate action over the next fifteen years in areas of critical importance for humanity and the planet:”

“We are determined to protect the planet from degradation, including through sustainable consumption and production, sustainably managing its natural resources and taking urgent action on climate change, so that it can support the needs of the present and future generations.”

 Who would not want to achieve these goals and live in such a Utopian world? Beware. The goals are lofty, but, the methodologies, the implementation and the governing of the world they describe can be likened to the gulags of Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin, the reign of terror imposed on China by the notorious Mao Zedong or the racist Hegelian, Karl Marx’s nefarious social construct of Marxism which is responsible for the deaths of upward of 200,000,000 people. They, all, used the same Siren’s song the United Nations is using now, to lure hundreds of millions into the webs of Agenda 2030.

On the subject of ‘climate change’, a simple line of reasoning will help you undo that lie of the Left. Ask yourself, “Do we have air pollution because of industry and technologies?” The answer is, ‘yes’. But, the earth has created far more air pollution on its own from volcanic activity, release of CH4 by paddy fields and cattle, release of CO by plants and animals, emission of natural gas, O3, nitrogen oxides, cosmic rays, UV-rays etc.

So, why the global outcry about ‘climate change’. It has been found to be an effective  narrative for the political goals of the Global-Marxist movement. No one can deny our climate is changing. The climate has been changing for millennia. It has never been stable.

But the Globalist-Marxist have convinced enough of the naive among the earth’s population to believe that suddenly, our fluctuating climate, is our doom. It is all a grand scheme of deception. Behind the cloak and grandeur of lies of Marxism.

About one-half of the world’s population has fallen for this lie. The poor of the world would see the opportunity to take from other countries what their failed systems and corrupted leadership has withheld from them while living lavish lifestyles.

The educated wealthy, the powerful and elitist of the Left are being motivated to ‘join the Globalist’s cause’ through promises of being further empowered and enriched. They will sit atop a One World Government with control over global finances, natural resources, food production, industry, technology, job creation, social constructs and anything that concerns the earth’s population.

I will endeavor to take one item at a time from the Agenda 2030 , in the weeks to come, and expose the lies.

(A note to America: The Globalist in your country, at the highest levels of your government,  are presently destroying your families structures, perverting your sense of morality, dismantling your legal systems, draining your treasury, corrupting your Constitution while staging the greatest coup d’etat that the world has ever seen. If you don’t rise up, quickly and forcefully, you will perish as a sovereign nation. In fact, it may already be too late.)

In the following episodes, you will see how the United States quietly partnered with and is complicit in the implementation of the United Nation’s Marxist-Globalist Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030 plans. I am now presenting previously undisclosed documents showing the depth and breadth of the spread of this Agenda within the United States government and social structures.

  • It begins with a document from U.S. Senator Roy Blunt, a republican:  H.R.1319 – American Rescue Plan Act of 2021
      • Please pay particular attention to the Titles and subtitles, as they mirror the objectives outlined in the U.N. Marxist Agenda 2030.
      • Also pay attention to the ‘coincidental completion dates’ as they mirror the Agenda 2030 dates, as well.
  • Secondly, please review the Washington Standard publication from February 18, 2022, titled, “ALERT: 2030 Psychological Agenda – Obedience Training for Pre-K through Adults.“
  • An article written by Shari Dovale, “ARP – The Path to Socialism” specifically referring to the ‘American Rescue Plan’,
    1. Title 31, Subtitle A, Part 35, Subpart A, § 35.9 Compliance with applicable laws. “A recipient must comply with all other applicable Federal statutes, regulations, and Executive orders, and a recipient shall provide for compliance with the American Rescue Plan Act, this subpart, and any interpretive guidance by other parties in any agreements it enters into with other parties relating to these funds.”  (Previous –  Next – Top)

As troubling as this seems, it has already been foretold. The Bible has warned  this was coming. Inform yourself. THE JOURNEY TOWARD PERFECTION.

EASTER – WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?

Matthew 27:1  “Now when morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people conferred together against Jesus to put Him to death;

2 and they bound Him and led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

3 Then when Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that He had been condemned, he felt remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.”

But they said, “What is that to us? You shall see to it yourself!” 5 And he threw the pieces of silver into the temple sanctuary and left; and he went away and hanged himself.

6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It is not lawful to put them in the temple treasury, since it is money paid for blood.” 7 And they conferred together and with the money bought the Potter’s Field as a burial place for strangers.

8 For this reason that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day. 9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: “AND THEY TOOK THE THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER, THE PRICE OF THE ONE WHOSE PRICE HAD BEEN SET by the sons of Israel; AND THEY GAVE THEM FOR THE POTTER’S FIELD, JUST AS THE LORD DIRECTED ME.”

11 Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor questioned Him, saying, “So You are the King of the Jews?” And Jesus said to him, “It is as you say.”

12 And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, He did not offer any answer. 13 Then Pilate said to Him, “Do You not hear how many things they are testifying against You?” 14 And still He did not answer him in regard to even a single charge, so the governor was greatly amazed.

15 Now at the Passover Feast the governor was accustomed to release for the people any one prisoner whom they wanted. 16 And at that time they were holding a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. 17 So when the people gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release for you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” 18 For he knew that it was because of envy that they had handed Him over.

19 And while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent him a message, saying, “See that you have nothing to do with that righteous Man; for last night I suffered greatly in a dream because of Him.”

20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas, and to put Jesus to death. 21 And the governor said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.”

22Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” They all said, “Crucify Him!” 23 But he said, “Why, what evil has He done?” Yet they kept shouting all the more, saying, “Crucify Him!”

24 Now when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but rather that a riot was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this Man’s blood; you yourselves shall see.” 25 And all the people replied, “His blood shall be on us and on our children!” 26 Then he released Barabbas for them; but after having Jesus flogged, he handed Him over to be crucified.

27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole Roman cohort to Him. 28 And they stripped Him and put a red cloak on Him. 29 And after twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and put a reed in His right hand; and they knelt down before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 30 And they spit on Him, and took the reed and beat Him on the head. 31 And after they had mocked Him, they took the cloak off Him and put His own garments back on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him.

32 As they were coming out, they found a man of Cyrene named Simon, whom they compelled to carry His cross.

33 And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means Place of a Skull, 34 they gave Him wine mixed with bile to drink; and after tasting it, He was unwilling to drink it.

35And when they had crucified Him, they divided His garments among themselves by casting lots. 36 And sitting down, they began to keep watch over Him there. 37 And above His head they put up the charge against Him which read, “THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

38 At that time two rebels were being crucified with Him, one on the right and one on the left. 39 And those passing by were speaking abusively to Him, shaking their heads, 40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.” 41 In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking Him and saying, 42 “He saved others; He cannot save Himself! He is the King of Israel; let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in Him. 43  HE HAS TRUSTED IN GOD; LET GOD RESCUE Him now, IF HE TAKES PLEASURE IN HIM; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 And the rebels who had been crucified with Him were also insulting Him in the same way.

45 Now from the sixth hour darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour. 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “ELI, ELI, LEMA SABAKTANEI?” that is, “MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?” 47 And some of those who were standing there, when they heard it, said, “This man is calling for Elijah.” 48 And immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge, he filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink. 49 But the rest of them said, “Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and gave up His spirit. 51 And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth shook and the rocks were split. 52 Also the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection, they entered the holy city and appeared to many.

54 Now as for the centurion and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the other things that were happening, they became extremely frightened and said, “Truly this was the Son of God!”

55 And many women were there watching from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee while caring for Him. 56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

57 Now when it was evening, a rich man from Arimathea came, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. 58 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the entrance of the tomb and went away.

61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.

62 Now on the next day, that is, the day which is after the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered together with Pilate, 63 and they said, “Sir, we remember that when that deceiver was still alive, He said, ‘After three days I am rising.’ 64 Therefore, give orders for the tomb to be made secure until the third day; otherwise, His disciples may come and steal Him, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.” 65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard; go, make it as secure as you know how.” 66 And they went and made the tomb secure with the guard, sealing the stone.

1 Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the tomb. 2 And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone, and sat upon it. 3 And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. 4 The guards shook from fear of him and became like dead men. 5 And the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified. 6 He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying. 7 And go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going ahead of you to Galilee. There you will see Him; behold, I have told you.”

8 And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to report to His disciples. 9And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Rejoice!” And they came up and took hold of His feet, and worshiped Him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go, bring word to My brothers to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me.”

11 Now while they were on their way, some of the men from the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened. 12 And when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers, 13 nd said, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came at night and stole Him while we were asleep.’ 14 And if this comes to the governor’s ears, we will appease him and keep you out of trouble.” 15 And they took the money and did as they had been instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews and is to this day.

16 But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated to them. 17 And when they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful. 18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19 Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to follow all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

It is good to know about this world changing event. I ask again, “What just happened?”

Many regular church attenders and many who call themselves Christians, cannot answer that question. They can tell you some of what they have just read or have seen in a church play, but know little more.

JUST SO YOU KNOW

Easter is about Jesus, an innocent man, Who was condemned by men, crucified, died, buried and then rose from the dead after three days in the tomb.

His offense? Jesus, was sent by God into this world to seek out and save lost humanity and to testify to the truth. But men, being evil, hated the light of the truth, so ironically, they killed Him, their only hope.

But this was just the ‘beginning of the end of God’s plan’ to the world. This plan began in the Garden of Eden and has been played out over the centuries that followed.

The penalty for man’s sin of rebellion and defiance against God, was death and eternal separation from God. But God, being merciful, offered His chosen people, (the Jews and later, anyone who would believe on Jesus and would follow Him), a way to be cleansed of their sins. It was called the Mosaic Covenant.

The Mosaic Covenant was centered around God’s giving His divine law to Moses on Mount Sinai. It was a conditional covenant in that the blessings that God promises are directly related to Israel’s obedience to the Mosaic Law. If Israel is obedient, then God will bless them, but if they disobey, then God will punish them. The blessings and curses that are associated with this conditional covenant are found in detail in Deuteronomy 28 -30.

But, the end result is that God said, in Deuteronomy 30:15,  “See, I have placed before you today life and happiness, and death and adversity, in that I am commanding you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, so that you may live and become numerous, and that the Lord your God may bless you in the land where you are entering to take possession of it. But if your heart turns away and you will not obey, but allow yourself to be led astray and you worship other gods and serve them, I declare to you today that you will certainly perish.”

God then gave the people a sacrifical system to atone for their sins.

THE PASSOVER (EASTER)

The book of Exodus tells of the origin of Passover. God promised to redeem His people from the bondage of Pharaoh (Exodus 6:6). God sent Moses to the Egyptian king with the command that Pharaoh “let my people go” (Exodus 8:1). When Pharaoh refused, God brought ten plagues on the land of Egypt. The tenth and worst of the plagues was the death of all the firstborn in Egypt.

The night of the first Passover was the night of the tenth plague. On that fateful night, God told the Israelites to sacrifice a spotless lamb and mark their doorposts and lintels with its blood (Exodus 12:21–22). Then, when the Lord passed through the nation, He would “pass over” the households that showed the blood (verse 23). In a very real way, the blood of the lamb saved the Israelites from death, as it kept the destroyer from entering their homes. The Israelites were saved from the plague, and their firstborn children stayed alive. From then on, every firstborn son of the Israelites belonged to the Lord and had to be redeemed with a sacrifice (Exodus 13:1–2, 12; cf. Luke 2:22–24).

The children of Israel in Egypt followed God’s command and kept the first Passover. However, none of the Egyptians did so. All through Egypt, behind the unmarked, bloodless doorways of the Egyptians, the firstborn children died at midnight (Exodus 12:21–29). “There was loud wailing in Egypt, for there was not a house without someone dead” (verse 30). This dire judgment finally changed the Egyptian king’s heart, and he released the Israelite slaves (verses 31–32).

Along with the instruction to apply the Passover lamb’s blood to their doorposts and lintels, God instituted a commemorative meal: fire-roasted lamb, bitter herbs, and unleavened bread (Exodus 12:8). The Lord told the Israelites to “observe this rite as a statute for you and for your sons forever” (Exodus 12:24, ESV), even when in a foreign land.

To this day, Jews all over the world celebrate the Passover in obedience to this command. Passover and the story of the exodus have great significance for Christians also, as Jesus Christ fulfilled the Law, including the symbolism of the Passover (Matthew 5:17). Jesus is our Passover (1 Corinthians 5:7; Revelation 5:12). He was killed at Passover time, and the Last Supper was a Passover meal (Luke 22:7–8). By (spiritually) applying His blood to our lives by faith, we trust Christ to save us from death. The Israelites who, in faith, applied the blood of the Paschal lamb to their homes become a model for us. It was not the Israelites’ ancestry or good standing or amiable nature that saved them; it was only the blood of the lamb that made them exempt from death (see John 1:29 and Revelation 5:9–10). (From GotQuestions.Org)

God has told us that we all are sinners and that there is a penalty for sin which is both a physcial and a spritual death.

But God, being rich in mercy, sent Jesus, the pefect sacrificial Lamb, to die in our place, thereby once and for all times, paying the penalty for the sins of all who would beleive and accept Him as Lord and savior.

The part we play is to accept God forgiveness and receive our salvation by believing in Jesus. The Bible says that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Then you must follow Him by what He has said we must do.

The Bible tells us that God gave His only begotten Son, so that all who would believe in Him, (that is, Jesus), would not perish but would have eternal life. John 3:16.

Jesus has said to all who have the ears to hear, “In My Father’s house are many rooms; if that were not so, I would have told you, because I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I am coming again and will take you to Myself, so that where I am, there you also will be.” John 14:2-3.

Jesus also told us, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest”. Matthew 11:28.

Another time He said, “Come, follow me and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:19.

Now, Jesus is telling you, “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to follow all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20

So, what will you do with what you now know?

RESIST & GIRD UP FOR WAR

~ Michael Young, Sr. ~ 1 Comment

“Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7

Gird up for War!

WHY DID JESUS COME INTO THE WORLD?

 1.  TO TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH

John 18:37 “Therefore Pilate said to Him, “So You are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say correctly that I am a king. For this purpose I have been born, and for this I have come into the world: to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice.”  

 2.  TO BRING A SWORD

Matthew 10:34, “Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. Verse 35, For I came to TURN A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW; verse 36, and A PERSON’S ENEMIES WILL BE THE MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD.”

 3.  TO FULFILL THE LAW

Matthew 5:17 “Do not presume that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill the Law and the Prophets.”  

 4.  TO CALL SINNERS

Mark 2:17 “And hearing this, Jesus *said to them, “It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick; I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” 

 5.  TO SAVE THE WORLD

John 12:47 “If anyone hears My teachings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.”

 6.  TO CAST FIRE & BRING DIVISION UPON THE EARTH

Luke 12:49 “I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled! Verse 50,  But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished! Verse 51, Do you think that I came to provide peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather to create division;  “

 “WHAT HE REALLY MEANT?”

Jesus has told us, inJohn 14:12, “Truly, truly I say to you, the one who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I am going to the Father. Verse 13. And whatever you ask in My name, this I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Verse 14. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.”

I have heard so many preachers, bible teachers and detractors alike, try to justify or explain away these Words of Jesus because they just cannot fathom the gentle and sweet ‘dashboard Jesus’ saying such things as we find in the verses cited.  These same confused preachers really get tied in a knot over John 14:12.  They will begin their commentary of teaching it with, “what this really means is…”.

Jesus said what He meant and meant exactly what He said.  He is our model for our counter cultural resistance to the growing global threat of Communist-Marxist-Globalism, And we need to get on with it.

Jesus’ time on earth was spent fulfilling the purpose, and will of His Father (Matthew 5:19, Matthew 5:39). Jesus was on a singular mission (John 6 :38) and nothing would stand in the way of accomplishing that mission: “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”

Jesus had a divine appointment with a cruel Roman cross. Read what He said when Peter proposed to get in the way of His mission:

Matthew 16:21- 23, “From that time Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised up on the third day. Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “God forbid it, Lord! This shall never happen to You.”But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God’s interests, but man’s.”

We do not literally have an appointment with a crucifixion, but, the Bible is  clear in Galatians 5:24, that “Those who belong to Christ Jesus crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” and again in Galatians 2:20, the Apotle Paul reminds us that, “I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.” which must be true for all who follow Jesus because we are on mission with Jesus. Our ‘old self’ must die so our new selves can follow and serve Him.

Jesus always, taught the Will of His Father, then, demonstrated what He taught. He expects us to do the same. Ephesians, chapter six, gives us a clear teaching and picture of the type of preparation and the kind of resolve we are to assume.

Ephesians 6:10-17, tells us, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, and HAVING PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, and having shod YOUR FEET WITH THE PREPARATION OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE; in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”

Stand, i. e. continue safe and sound, stand unharmed: Acts 26:22.

Stand ready or prepared: Ephesians 6:14. One who does not hesitate, does not waver, of one who vanquishes his adversaries and holds the ground, also of one who in the midst of the fight holds his position against the foe, to persist, continue, persevere: (so as not to fall from thy faith).

Jesus’ example of steadfast, unmovable courage; this is our example and our command to do the same:

CONFRONTING THE STORM

Mark 4:35-41, “On that day, when evening came, He said to them, “Let us go over to the other side.” Leaving the crowd, they took Him along with them in the boat, just as He was; and other boats were with Him. And there arose a fierce gale of wind, and the waves were breaking over the boat so much that the boat was already filling up. Jesus Himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke Him and said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” And He got up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Hush, be still.” And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm. And He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?” They became very much afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”

CONFRONTING DEMONS

Luke 8:26-33 “Then they sailed to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee. And when He came out onto the land, He was met by a man from the city who was possessed with demons; and who had not put on any clothing for a long time, and was not living in a house, but in the tombs. Seeing Jesus, he cried out and fell before Him, and said in a loud voice, “What business do we have with each other, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me.” For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had seized him many times; and he was bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, and yet he would break his bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert. And Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion”; for many demons had entered him. They were imploring Him not to command them to go away into the abyss.

“Now there was a herd of many swine feeding there on the mountain; and the demons implored Him to permit them to enter the swine. And He gave them permission. And the demons came out of the man and entered the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.”

CONFRONTING GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS

John 19:8-12  ”Therefore when Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid; and he entered into the Praetorium again and said to Jesus, “Where are You from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. So Pilate said to Him, “You do not speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You, and I have authority to crucify You?” Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you from above; for this reason he who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.” As a result of this Pilate made efforts to release Him, but the Jews cried out saying, “If you release this Man, you are no friend of Caesar; everyone who makes himself out to be a king opposes Caesar.”

BEFORE THE RELIGIOUS ESTABLISHMENT

Matthew 24:57-67, “Those who had seized Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together. But Peter was following Him at a distance as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and entered in, and sat down with the officers to see the outcome.

“Now the chief priests and the whole Council kept trying to obtain false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put Him to death. They did not find any, even though many false witnesses came forward. But later on two came forward, 61 and said, “This man stated, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and to rebuild it in three days.’” The high priest stood up and said to Him, “Do You not answer? What is it that these men are testifying against You?”  But Jesus kept silent. And the high priest said to Him, “I adjure You by the living God, that You tell us whether You are the Christ, the Son of God.”  Jesus *said to him, “You have said it yourself; nevertheless I tell you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

Then the high priest tore his robes and said, “He has blasphemed! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, you have now heard the blasphemy;  what do you think?” They answered, “He deserves death!” Then they spat in His face and beat Him with their fists; and others slapped Him.”  

Jesus did not draw back.  (He proceeded boldly to the Cross and secured our salvation!) We must not draw back. Jesus has all authority in heaven  and on the earth and is with us until the end!

Remember, Jesus came to earth for these stated reasons – and these same reasons are our method and our calling:

TO TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH. We are to testify to the truth!

TO BRING A SWORD. We are to bring the sword of the Word of God!

 TO FULFILL THE LAW. We are to fulfill the same law!

TO CALL SINNERS. We are to call sinners!

TO SAVE THE WORLD through Jesus. In a very real sense, this, too, is our calling, by lifting the Name of Jesus, telling others and leading them to Him

TO CAST FIRE & BRING DIVISION UPON THE EARTH. This, too, is our calling! The Word of God is a stumbling block to those who do not believe, dividing A  MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW; (Matthew 10:35-36)

Dear Brothers and Sisters, this is not hyperbole, a philosophy or metaphor. Now is the time to gird ourselves up with the full armor of God and follow our Lord, the King of Kings into battle.

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places and must be fought with Spiritual Armament!

Your Brother and Friend,

ONLY ONE SECOND COMING & NO SECRET RAPTURE

~ Michael Young, Sr. ~ Leave a comment

(You can listen by audio and pause the audio to follow page links which are important to this teaching, then resume the audio when you are ready.)

 There are many Evangelicals and ‘Reformed’ Bible teachers, as well as Pentecostal, Charismatic, et al., who propose a “patchwork-quilt-type-of eschatology” regarding The Second Coming of Jesus based solely on denominational bias, These folks say the account in Matthew 24 which describes Jesus’ “appearing on the clouds of the sky” when everyone will see Him, is NOT the second coming;

Matthew 24:29, “But immediately after the tribulation of those days THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT, AND THE STARS WILL FALL from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Verse 30. And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and great glory. Verse 31. And He will send forth His angels with A GREAT TRUMPET BLAST, and THEY WILL GATHER TOGETHER His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.”

Notice that ALL the tribes of the earth will mourn and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY…but, many of these denominational teachers and preachers won’t call this the rapture, either!

They may go on to say that Revelation chapter 19 is where you can find Jesus’ 2nd coming, BUT, which, according to scriptures, is seen only by John the Revelator.

Revelation 19:11 “And I saw (John the revelator) heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. Verse 12. His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many crowns; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. Verse 13. He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. Verse 14. And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. Verse 15. From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. Verse 16. And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written: “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

Verse 17. “Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in midheaven, “Come, assemble for the great feast of God, Verse 18, so that you may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people, both free and slaves, and small and great.”

Verse 19. “And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war against Him who sat on the horse, and against His army.”

Here is an example of this widespread mistaken and false teaching: 

Jesus begins His teaching with, “Don’t Let Any Man Deceive You”. Later, Paul the Apostle then reminds Christians what Jesus warned about with these 2 Bible verses, 

“Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him… ” (2 Thessalonians 2:1)

“And then shall the wicked One be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.” (2 Thessalonians 2:8)

(a) Notice, there is a coming in verse one,

(b) and a coming in verse eight.

(c) At the coming in verse one, the church is gathered to Him,

(d) but at the coming in verse eight, Jesus will destroy the Antichrist by the brightness of His coming.

(e) In verse one we have the rapture of the church and

(f) in verse eight we have the Second Coming. In verses two through seven we have all the events that occur between the two comings.

“That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, that the day of Christ is at hand.” (2 Thessalonians 2:2)

Paul is simply saying, “There is a mindset that seems to have spread throughout the church that you are living after the Rapture. Do not be moved by the different winds of doctrine that are circulating. Also, people are distorting the Word of God to support the theory that the Rapture has come.” Paul continues, “I don’t care if there is a letter contradicting my first letter, it is wrong. Don’t let anyone shake you up and convince you that the Rapture has arrived, because it has not. Don’t be soon shaken in mind.”

Every time any major war arises, people begin to shout, “We’re in the Tribulation!” When Hitler rose to power, many said, “He is the Antichrist.” When Mussolini rose to power they said, “Mussolini is the Antichrist. He is a ruler from Rome, and Rome is the revived Roman Empire, therefore he must be the Antichrist!” Not too long ago, people were saying that the Russian leader, Gorbachev was the Antichrist because he had a birthmark on his head.

Then Yandian concludes, “In our generation and throughout the centuries, people try to take circumstances and make them fit the Word of God, when instead the Word of God should be the standard by which circumstances are judged.” So, Yandian, and many others in the reformed theological camp, lecture us  about using the Word of God as the standard to judge these things, then they deny those plain words of the Bible which do not fit their denominational theology and doctrines.

So, which ‘Glorious Return’ is it?  Let’s take a look at the ‘PLAIN LANGUAGE OF THE BIBLE’ and decide.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?

(a)  It is important because Jesus tells us we must ‘endure to the end’ and knowing the sequence of events will help us to ‘not lose heart and faint’.

(b)  The apostle Paul tells it is important because “God takes no pleasure in the one who shrinks back”, and knowing that our ‘salvation draw near’ will help us endure to the end.

(c)  Jesus tells us that it is important because we must stay alert be found doing what He has commanded us, when He returns, or we may be “assigned a place with the hypocrites”. Knowing the day is near will help us stay focused and ready for His return.

WHICH IS IT?

Jesus’ Glorious Return #1

Matthew 24:29 “But immediately after the tribulation of those days THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT, AND THE STARS WILL FALL from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. verse 30 “And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and great glory.  31 “And He will send forth His angels with A GREAT TRUMPET, and THEY WILL GATHER TOGETHER His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.”

REPEAT:  Matthew 24:29, “But immediately after the tribulation of those days…

What is “the tribulation of those days”?  See Matthew 24:2-14 & Revelation 6.

(a). Matthew 24:5  “For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the [d] Christ,’ and they will [e] mislead many people.”

(b). Matthew 24:6  “And you will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. verse 7. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,”

(c). Matthew 24:7 and there will be famines

(d). Matthew 24:7. and earthquakes in various places. verse 8. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pains.

(e). Matthew 24:9 “Then they will hand you over to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

(f). Matthew 24:10 And at that time many will fall away, and they will betray one another and hate one another.

(g). Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets will rise up and mislead many people.

(h). Matthew 24:12 And because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will become cold.

(i). Matthew 24:13 But the one who endures to the end is the one who will be saved.

(j). Matthew 24:14 This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

Matthew 24:29 “But immediately after the tribulation of those days

(see Matthew 24:2-14) REPEAT: Matthew 24:29 THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT, AND THE STARS WILL FALL from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

Revelation 6:12. “I looked when He broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood;  verse 13. and the stars of the sky fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind.”

REPEAT:

Matthew 24:30. “And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and great glory.

  • Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky,
  • and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn,
  • And they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and great glory.

REPEAT:

Matthew 24:31. “And He will send forth His angels with A GREAT TRUMPET and THEY WILL GATHER TOGETHER His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.”

  • And He will send forth His angels with A GREAT TRUMPET
  • and THEY WILL GATHER TOGETHER His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

Or is it…

Jesus’ Glorious Return #2



  1. Revelation 19:11-20: And I, (John the revelator), saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. Verse 12. His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. Verse 13. He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. Verse 14. And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. Verse 15. From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. Verse 16. And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” Verse 17. Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to all the birds which fly in mid-heaven, “Come, assemble for the great supper of God, Verse 18, so that you may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the flesh of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, both free men and slaves, and small and great.” Verse 19.  And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army. Verse 20.  And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone. Verse 21. And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.”

OR, IS IT “BOTH”?

NOTE:  There is only ONE “2nd ADVENT”. There is NO secret rapture, and every eye will see Him!

What we see in Matthew 24, as narrated by JESUS, is the following:

(a)  Breaking of the 6th Seal of the Tribulation,

(b)  The beginning the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord,

c)  Which is the beginning of Daniel’s 70th Week also known as the final 7 years of the Great Tribulation,

(d)  Jesus’ SECOND ADVENT,

(e)  The Rapture of the Church,

(f)  The heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True,

(g)  From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and

(h)  He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty

NOTICE:  In Matthew 24, ALL EYES SEE HIM, – but In Revelation 19, JOHN SEES HIM.

This is one event being seen from TWO PERSPECTIVES, as it unfolds: One from earth, one from John’s prophetic vision of the Heavens!

Look at it this way:   When Hurricane Irma hit the U.S. it was a category 5 storm; 

As Irma progressed up the peninsula of Florida, it became a category 4 storm; 

then as it entered Alabama it became a category 3 storm; 

and finally as it entered Georgia, Irma became a tropical storm;

and later as it entered Tennessee, it became a rain event. To those in the various states which hurricane Irma entered, it would have appeared to them that Irma might have been 5 different storms: Cat 5, Cat 4, Cat 3, a Tropical storm, a rain event.  But if viewed “From Above” it was ONE STORM, progressively unfolding to its conclusion.

SO IT IS WITH JESUS’ SECOND COMING

  • Breaking of the 6th Seal of the Tribulation,
  • The beginning of the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord,
  • The beginning of Daniel’s 70th Week also known as the final 7 years of the Great Tribulation,
  • Jesus’ SECOND ADVENT,
  • The Rapture of the Church,
  • The heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True,
  • From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and
  • He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty

WHY DOES IT MATTER?

  • Jesus tells us that it matters because we must ‘endure to the end’ and know the sequence of events will help us to ‘not lose heart and faint’.
  • The apostle Paul tells us that it matters, because “God takes no pleasure in the one who shrinks back”, and knowing that our ‘salvation draw near’ will help us endure to the end.
  • Jesus tells us it matters and that we must stay alert be found doing what He has commanded when He returns, or we may be “assigned a place with the hypocrites”. Knowing the day is near will help us stay focused and ready for His return.

Don’t be deceived.  There is only ONE Second Coming of Christ.  There is only ONE Rapture.  There is only ONE Armageddon. Know your Bible.  Know the sequence.  Be Ready, found doing as He has said.  Endure to the end and be saved !!

Your Brother and Friend,

The United Nations

8 PREDICTIONS FOR THE WORLD IN 2030

Lie #1.

The Globalists-Socialists-Marxist-Communists-Left will tell you that their goal is that by the year 2030 “you will own nothing. No houses, no cars, no clothes, no appliances, etc., and you will be happy, (like it or not). Anything and everything you want or need, you will rent online, and it will be delivered to you by drone.” “I don’t own anything. I don’t own a car. I don’t own a house. I don’t own any appliances or any clothes,” writes Danish MP Ida Auken.

“Shopping is a distant memory in the city of 2030, whose inhabitants have cracked clean energy and borrow what they need on demand. It sounds Utopian, until she mentions that her every move is tracked and outside the city live swathes of discontents, the ultimate depiction of a society split in two.”

There is a lot of truth in the statement that if the United Nation’s Globalists-Socialists-Marxists-Coummunists have it their way, you will own nothing!

Can you imagine enough drones flying about, to service over 6 Billion plus people daily?  And they fail to mention how you get food, pay for your utilities and medical care. But if everything is rented to you, then get in line. Get in a very long and dismal line. (Have you ever ‘breezed through’ any government line, like your local DMV?)

A society split in two? The compliant ones get the freebies, and the malcontents are marginalized and separated from this Utopian society. (Watch the fictional series COLONY for a good depiction of how this plays out). 

The sad truth is that we are very near a complete Globalist-Socialist-Marxist-Communist takeover. 

And the truth is that you will continue to work under the scrutiny of a district official who will dictate where you work, how much you earn, what you wear, what you eat and what kind of bicycle or electric car you drive (if you can afford the price tag).

Lie #2.

The Globalists-Socialists-Marxist-Communists-Left will tell you that “the Dominance of the United States is over. Nation states will have staged a comeback, writes Robert Muggah, Research Director at the Igarapé Institute. Instead of a single force, a handful of countries – the U.S., Russia, China, Germany, India and Japan chief among them – show semi-imperial tendencies. However, at the same time, the role of the state is threatened by trends including the rise of cities and the spread of online identities.”

Again, the sad truth is that the many countries have already fallen prey to the Global movement. The prime minister in Canada, for instance, has shown his dictatorial colors and has seized his government by political force, silencing free speech, free expression, dissent and the right to protest.

The American democrat party has gotten away with a silent a coup d’état of the United States government, committed treason, defrauded the American people by stealing the 2020 election and installed a slow minded and practically demented old man as president and a simple-minded adulteress as vice president.

Now the Globalist-Socialist-Marxist-Communist world leaders are making their move. Russia, as of this writing in March 2022, has invaded Ukraine and threatens to rebuild the former Soviet Empire, (just like Ezekiel 38 has prophesied). China is now intimating they will take full control over Taiwan, and Joe Biden stumbles over his words, shouts at reporters, inexplicably walks away from presidential press conferences and bows to the Globalist-Socialist-Marxist-Communist world leaders demands. All of this is the ‘beginning of the end’ of the world as we have known it, leading to prophetic events that will shake this world to its core. It is also the culmination of a prediction and a promise made by U.S. president George Herbert Bush in 1991 of the coming New World Order.

This ‘New World Order’, in the year 2022, is a confederation of Nations headed by an Elite group and hierarchy with strategically placed officials around the world. Their work nearly complete, we are now seeing what appears to be the fulfillment of prophetic events which lead to the establishment of a One World Government, the ‘rebuilding of the Tower of Babel‘.

Lie #3.

Farewell hospital, hello home-spital. (‘Home-spital’ is a cute term being coined to describe a ‘home health care’ system, replacing hospital care). The Globalists are telling us that “technology will have further disrupted disease, writes Melanie Walker, a medical doctor and World Bank advisor. The hospital as we know it will be on its way out, with fewer accidents thanks to self-driving cars and great strides in preventive and personalized medicine. Scalpels and organ donors are out, tiny robotic tubes and bio-printed organs are in.”

The truth is that no such technology exists and is only in the simplistic imagination of Globalist Utopian daydreamers, but is an important part of the lie being sold as one of the reasons we should blindly embrace the United Nation’s New World.

The truth is that good health and well-being for all of earth’s inhabitants by way of the World Health Organization directing which medical practices are allowable, pharmaceuticals, medicine production and distribution; making unilateral decisions on abortions, assisted suicides and euthanasia (i.e., the Globalists-Socialists-Marxists-Communist’s program of world population control).

Explosive documents have surfaced which exposed a planned genocide based on a Malthusian population control method, (a must-read with a must-see video) in order to save the planet from a depletion of resources due to overpopulation.

Lie #4. 

The Globalist will tell you that “We are eating much less meat. Rather like our grandparents, we will treat meat as a treat rather than a staple, writes Tim Benton, Professor of Population Ecology at the University of Leeds, UK. It won’t be big agriculture or little artisan producers that win, but rather a combination of the two, with convenience food redesigned to be healthier and less harmful to the environment.”

Once again, the lie being propagated by the LEFT is that by producing meat, we are endangering our planet and hurting our environment. Like the story of ‘chicken little’, the Globalists and the Leftist environmentalists are running in circles, screaming that the sky is falling, and we must stop eating meat to save ourselves. (And by the way, archaeological finds show that our grandparents have treated meat as a staple as far back as the days of Ancient Israel.)

Interestingly, the Bible predicted this day was coming.  1 Timothy 4:1, says, “But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron, who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from foods which God has created to be gratefully shared in by those who believe and know the truth.”

The United Nation’s Globalists seem to truly believe we are overpopulating and over polluting our planet. They believe we are depleting our natural resources, and we are facing self-destruction if we don’t embrace their Agenda 2030. They have so influenced our world that nations space agencies are working feverishly to build rocket ships to take us off planet in search of  new worlds in an effort to save our species. In the meantime, they believe they must control our behavior to slow this planetary suicide, even if it means they must use some form of population-control-genocide to get it done. This is both truly psychotic and devilish.

Lie #5.

The Globalists will tell you that “a billion people will be displaced by climate change.”  They go on to say:

  • Arctic Lands Grow Greener.
  • Scientist Find Record Warm Water in Antarctica, Cause of Glacier Melt.
  • Sea Level Rise could Reshape the United States, Trigger Migration.
  • Climate researchers can now detect the fingerprint of global warming in daily weather observations at the global scale.
  • Groundwater depletion in America’s West.
  • Climate warming disrupts tree seed production.
  • Climate warming speeding up earth’s ocean currents.
  • A worldwide push toward One World Government (Globalism).
  • Worldwide anarchy, wars and rumors of war.
  • Climate changes of historic proportions.
  • Strange new and threatening diseases.
  • Global Pandemics.
  • Droughts, famines and increasing frequency of earthquakes.

“The Arctic is figuratively and literally on fire — it’s warming much faster than we thought it would in response to rising levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and this warming is leading to a rapid meltdown and increase in wildfires,” University of Michigan environmental school dean Jonathan Overpeck, a climate scientist, said in an email.”

“The record warming in Siberia is a warning sign of major proportions,” Overpeck wrote.

“Persistently warm weather, especially if coupled with wildfires, causes permafrost to thaw faster, which in turn exacerbates global warming by releasing large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas that’s 28 times stronger than carbon dioxide, said Katey Walter Anthony, a University of Alaska Fairbanks expert on methane release from frozen Arctic soil.” “Methane escaping from permafrost thaw sites enters the atmosphere and circulates around the globe,” she said. “Methane that originates in the Arctic does not stay in the Arctic. It has global ramifications.”

“That seems to weaken and sometimes even stall the jet stream, meaning weather systems such as those bringing extreme heat or rain can stay parked over places for days on end, Cohen said.”

FEAR-MONGERING or FACT?

The weather channel has an article saying “A new study has found the Gulf Stream is circulating at its slowest rate in at least 1,600 years, contradicting reports to the contrary. Climate change is to blame for the slowdown, the study concluded. If the circulation stops completely, it would have catastrophic impacts on our weather.” The article briefly states that “some scientists who weren’t involved in the study agreed with the findings, but others said a lack of data left them skeptical of the study. MIT professor Carl Wunsch said the study’s “assertions of weakening are conceivable, but unsupported by any data” in an interview with the AP. “A separate study, also released in the journal “Nature“, claims the 150-year slowdown of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, (AMOC). is a result of natural changes, not man-made climate change. But, both conclude, the slowdown is occurring, and it could impact our weather in the coming years.”

A 2000-YEAR-OLD WEATHER FORECAST

Once again, the Bible has predicted this day would be coming but not as the Globalists say.  The Book of the Revelation, chapter 7:1, says, “After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, so that no wind would blow on the earth or on the sea or on any tree.”

HERE IS WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THE WINDS STOPPED BLOWING: “It would rarely rain in inland locations (wind moves moist air over dry spots and falls as rain). All land not near a body of water would turn into a desert.

“There would be more extreme temperatures (the warm/cold air over the ground would not be replaced by the steady temperature air of the oceans and seas).

“The trade winds would no longer exist, and ocean stream currents would eventually stop. This would lead to serious climate changes. (The Gulf Stream keeps Europe warm).”

“After a few days the problem arrives. Without wind systems, warm, moist air won’t move around. Water might still evaporate, but it won’t travel, meaning anywhere away from a large body of water will dry up. Lakes might be alright as the evaporating water will fall back into them and the sea will be fine but anywhere else will get very dry, very quickly. Plants, animals and humans will slowly die from dehydration with most water inaccessible as salt water or ice. Even if we survive this, the problems don’t stop. The equator will no longer shed its heat as quickly, so it will become very warm, mountains may remain cool enough to be habitable but nowhere else will. At the same time, the poles, deprived of heat from the equator, will freeze solid.”  Science is only recently saying what the Bible has been saying for centuries.

THE ENTIRE EARTH IS GROANING

The Bible has said, in Romans 8:19-21, “For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.”

Lie #6.

The Globalist are telling us that “we must do a better job of accepting refugees.”  This is true but is being manipulated by the Globalists to include eliminating nation’s sovereignty and erasing national borders.

The Globalists claim, “ Today’s Syrian refugees, 2030’s CEOs. Highly educated Syrian refugees will have come of age by 2030, making the case for the economic integration of those who have been forced to flee conflict. The world needs to be better prepared for populations on the move, writes Lorna Solis, Founder and CEO of the NGO Blue Rose Compass, as climate change will have displaced 1 billion people.”

They couple refugees fleeing conflicts with climate change and refugees ‘becoming CEOs in the years following 2030’. This type of illogical and disjointed thinking leads down a road similar to the one sitting in the U.S. Whitehouse, “a seemingly demented old man, shouting wildly at reporters, erratically walking off during press conferences, mumbling and making unintelligible remarks during televised appearances, appointing unqualified, perverse and amoral people to his cabinet.”

The truth is that we need better cooperation between nations, stronger borders, a rise in decency and fairness as spelled out in Scriptures.

Lie #7.

The Globalist would have you believe that, “The values that built the West will have been tested to breaking point. We forget the checks and balances that bolster our democracies at our peril, writes Kenneth Roth, Executive Director of Human Rights Watch.

In this breathtaking convoluted treatise, Kenneth Roth, purporting to support Western democracies, launches into an attack against majorities. He seems to both support and denigrate democracy. There are a very few things that you might hear from the World Economic Forum that are good and upon which we may agree. But, Globalism at its worst is the meddling in our  nation’s affairs and trying to influence the destruction of our national  sovereignty, the U.S. system of laws and our very constitution.
 
CO-BELLIGERENCY
 
I believe this is a good time to introduce the concept of “Co-Belligerency versus an Ally”:

Here is Biblically based advice and very wise counsel from Pastor Trent Casto as he quotes the late theologian, Frances Schaeffer, regarding relationships and associations and our need to be careful to avoid becoming separatists, isolated from others and the world, but also not to be drawn into alliances that would compromise us and our mission.

The two terms he used were “ALLY” and “CO-BELIGERENT“:

“An ALLY is a person who is a born-again and fully devoted follower of Christ with whom I can go a long way with, down any path.

“A CO-BELIGERENT is someone who may not have any sufficient basis for taking the right position but takes the right positions on a single issue.  I can join with this person without any danger as long as I realize that he is not an ALLY that we are cooperating only on a single issue.”

1.  So when it comes to issues of the common good, such as ending abortions, preserving religious freedom, healing racial divisions, or relieving poverty, we can be CO-BELLIGERENTS and cooperate with people or organizations who do not share our Christian convictions.  But we must not be drawn into becoming full ALLIES and careful not to  disclose detail about our organizations, personnel or our ongoing methods, lest our COBELLIGERENTS would use these against us on other issues.

2.  Secondarily, but just as important, we are defined by our associations.  This can hamper the effectiveness of our mission going forward.

3.  Finally, we can be INFLUENCED by close relationships and continuing associations.  Should this happen, be certain you are at risk of losing your “Savor and Light“, and if that happens you are rendered impotent.

A NEW WORLD ORDER

Where is all this going?  A new era has dawned.  It would be prudent to understand and accept the fact that things will never be what they have been in our past.  We can never go back.

We have entered a new era, and we are seeing things, both amazing and terrifying, on a worldwide scale.  We are seeing things in America we would never have imagined could happen.  Yet, here we are. 

Read what has already happened:

                                 Click above image for link

“The foundation of The Global Governance Foundation has a set of core values, a belief system, which contains ideas that are foreign to the American experience, and ignores other values and ideas that are precious to the American experience.

The values and ideas articulated in the Commission’s report are not new. They have been tried, under different names, in other societies. Often, the consequences have been devastating. These values, under new names, have been emerging in UN documents since the late 1980s, and have dominated international conferences, agreements, and treaties since 1992. This set of core values underlies Agenda 21 adopted in Rio de Janeiro. Virtually every international treaty and agreement introduced during this decade reflects this set of core values. The Commission’s recommendations to achieve global governance seek to enforce these values through the programs authorized and implemented by a global bureaucracy growing from a revitalized and restructured United Nations system.”

We, Christians and Conservatives, are just now awakening to the fact that we are in a war for our very existence.  An ideological WAR has been raging for the past 175 years. 

Alarmingly, this ideological phase of this war has been won and the enemy has advanced their ideologies, methods, agenda and troops, taking up positions in our nations highest offices, in our states legislatures, our city governments, in our universities and in our churches.  They are living in our neighborhoods and sleeping in our beds.

Lie #8.

The Globalists are telling us that “there will be a global price on carbon and this will help make fossil fuels history.”  There is, indeed, a global tax on carbons; it is being levied on a nation-by-nation basis, but soon will become universal.

The lie is that it will end the need to use fossil fuels or that the tax will go to that end. It is fossil fuels that drive the production of non-fossil energy, such as electric cars and batteries. Fossil fuels are an essential and their elimination will throw humanity back into a dark age.

The taxes collected are to be used as all taxes have always been used by Global-Socialist-Marxist-Communist governments, to enrich the ruling elite, to be redistributed to the working masses as a stipend and to be squandered on more failing government ideologies and programs.

AN URGENT MESSAGE TO THE WORLD

All of this has been recorded ahead of time and is foretold in great and frightening detail.  You simply need the “eyes to see” and “the ears to hear”.

All of these things and this historic time had been recorded, in various books of the Bible, in particular, the Book of Revelation.

No amount of environmental rehabilitation or resuscitation will work. Flying away to strange new worlds won’t work either.

THE SUBJECT:

Verse 16. ”And someone came to Him and said, “Teacher, what good thing shall I do so that I may obtain eternal life?”

THE ANSWER:

Verse 17.  “And He said to him, “Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but if you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”

THE QUESTION:

Verse 18. “Then he said to Him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said, “You shall not commit murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not give false testimony; Honor your father and mother; and You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Verse 20.  The young man said to Him, “All these I have kept; what am I still lacking?”  

THE DILEMMA:

Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

THE RESPONSE:

Verse 22. “But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.”

THE TEACHING:

Verse 23. “And Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I say to you, it will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven. And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”

THE PROMISE:

Verse 28. ”And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on His glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms on account of My name, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life.”

THE MYSTERY, THE ORACE:

Verse 30. ”But many who are first will be last; and the last, first.”

Verse 30 is the summary of Jesus’ teaching on what it means to be saved from perishing and the path that leads to salvation.

This teaching or principal, when acted out in our natural lives, says two things:

  1. The first and dominate matter or subject of this teaching is found in verse 16, “what good thing shall I do so that I may obtain eternal life?” Jesus begins His answer by redirecting the young man’s focus from ‘doingsomething good’ , (“what good thing shall I do so that I may obtain eternal life?”) to God (there is only One Who is good).

This is the same for us. We cannot do anything, no matter how good, to earn favor with God, and this includes our own salvation. It is His free Gift to us by His Grace and mercy.

  1. Jesus then seems to contradict Himself when He says, “if you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” He goes from ‘not doing’ to ‘doing’ something? Not at all.

A simple study of the words of Jesus will show that the word ‘keep’ is the Greek word, ‘téreó’), and actually means ‘to guard over, to observe or watch over’; maintain, preserve; spiritually guard and watch over, to keep intact. 

In other words, you are to keep these commandments within you, within your heart and mind at all times, meditating on them, considering them, in all circumstances, so your behavior will be guided by them.

  1. The young man recognizes that although he has ‘kept all the commandments’, but is still lacking something. The young man uses the Greek word ‘phulassó’, when he says ‘I have kept all these things, what am I still lacking?’. This word bears some of the same meanings as the word Jesus used, ‘téreó’, except ‘phulasso’ means, to ‘personally be on guard against emphsizing the personal interest involved with the guarding, doing or avoiding.

The young man’s perspective and thinking is still guided by the material world, his possessions and doing according to his ability. This is a fine distinction, easily missed by the natural mind. But this is the obstacle to entering the Kingdom of God. This too, is our problem most of the time, failing to grasp the Spiritual over the natural.

  1. Now, having gained the young man’s attention, Jesus goes to the heart of the matter and makes clear what is necessary. Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

Jesus tells him to dispossess all things of the natural world, everything done by his own strength, mind or will, holding nothing back, and to follow Jesus from that day forward. Jesus is using a special tense for the words ‘go and sell’, the aorist tense, which means ‘to go and sell and keep going and selling’. There can be no going back. You will have to depend solely on God to provide your every need.

This is where almost all of man’s attempt to follow Jesus have fallen short. In this postmodern world even the church is rife with worldly possession and dependent on wealth or mammon. This is why the church has become weak and impotent in the eyes of God and in the eyes of the world, in these Last Days.

  1. Scriptures tell us that the young man went away grieving because he was very wealthy. It is interesting that we read in Matthew 5, what we call ‘The Sermon on the Mount’, Jesus is teaching this same principal,

Matthew 5:1-4, “Now when Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. And He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.”

In these verses we see that all who enter and possess the Kingdom of Heaven, have first become ‘poor in spirit’, which literally translates as, “to crouch or cower like a beggar”; deeply destitute, completely lacking resources and earthly wealth, i.e. helpless as a beggar. “the pauper rather than the mere peasant, the extreme opposite of the rich”.

Matthew 5:1-11, pronounces nine blessing on those who ‘go and sell their  possessions and give to the poor, and will have treasure in heaven; and follow Jesus.”

I have heard all the ‘excuses’ by theologians and bible teachers as to what Jesus actually said and meant by His Words. But, let me say, everything I have read and studied, in the English, Greek and Hebrew say the same thing, ’Keep the commandments; go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

I also understand why the young man went away sad.

  1. Next, Jesus turns His attention to his disciples, who have been watching and listening to this episode and declares, “And Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I say to you, it will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven. And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”

Imagine, two people standing at the gate of heaven, one very poor and one very wealthy, and Jesus explains the cost to enter is everything you own. The poor man jumps with joy over the fact that he easily qualifies; but the rich man would pause at this seeming inequity and his horrendous cost. The cost is everything. You must become poor, a poverty so deep that it reaches down into you soul and spirit! Can you do it? Have you done it? Are you saved?

  1. The Bible tells us that Jesus’ disciples were very astonished at what they had heard. They asked, “Then who can be saved?”

Every time I read this I have the same thoughts as the disciples, “Then who can be saved?” I struggle with keeping the commandments. No, correct that: I fail at keeping the commandments and I wither at the thought of selling all my possessions and giving that money to the poor. How is this possible?

“And looking at them, Jesus said to them, “With people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

Well, I thank God that with God all things are possible, but I feel like Peter when he blurted, ”Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?” Please explain, Jesus!

  1. Jesus answers with words too profound to fathom: ”And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on His glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms on account of My name, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life.”

Faith. It is by faith we accept and trust the words of Jesus. The natural mind cannot grasp these deep, profound oracles of God.

As Isaiah 55:8-11 says,

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,

Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the LORD.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

So are My ways higher than your ways

And My thoughts than your thoughts.

“For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven,

And do not return there without watering the earth

And making it produce and sprout,

And providing seed to the sower and bread to the eater;

So will My word be which goes out of My mouth;

It will not return to Me empty,

Without accomplishing what I desire,

And without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it.” 

Jesus promises that for those of us who follow Him, in the regeneration when He sits on His glorious throne, everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms on account of His name, will receive many times as much, AND will inherit eternal life.”

Just like when Job, after he suffered loss of every thing he had once possessed, submitted to God, was obedient and prayed for his friends, The LORD restored the fortunes of Job and increased double all that Job had.

As I said earlier in this study,this teaching or principal, when acted out in our natural lives, says two things. The first was how do I obtain eternal life. The second principal is that although we must give everything away in order to enter the kingdom of God, He will multiply and restore our fortunes now and give us eternal life!

  1. Finally, COMES THE MYSTERY, THE ORACE of Verse 30. ”But many who are first will be last; and the last, first.”

Verse 30 is the summary of Jesus’ teaching and tells us that as we live out His commands and follow Him in all He says and does, by allowing God to rid us of our earthly possessions and desires, by humbling ourselves and become as servants, by making others more important than ourselves, by making ourselves as last, He will grant us access to His Kingdom and to eternal life and we will be made first, the head and not the tail.
