I am thankful that we do not have to be like Elijah and call down fire from heaven. In fact our Father does not have to defended Himself at all. My point is this be careful as to how we challenge none believers. God does do signs and wanders we do not do them for Him. He does them so that He can receive glory for Himself and Him alone. Always pray for the sick, always pray for people for there needs are met .If you can meet the need then do it.

The book of Revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ, deals more with explaining who Jesus is rather than foretelling events. John the author sees Jesus alive and standing. Not on the cross, not with limited authority. But sees Him for who He is. Then or Lord does for warn of current events that we see happening today in the life of the Church. So Question, where is the Lord challenging you? Is it in the hardness of ones hart or the pointing of the finger at someone are something else. Take a look at the issue of Date setting it is not over with more dates are coming, again it will not happen. " I do not even consider my self a prophet" and I can say this as a fact of Christian truth. Secondly, this means we may not be asking the right question, but one question is the hardest.  Am I becoming apart of a meaningful discipleship experience or am I ignoring the issue by pointing the finger at Date setters and say because of them I am not becoming active in the local Church.

 I write this on May 19, 2011, life goes on does it not. I hope we had a good time parting about May 21, 2011.

Can we learn from this and do not trust any date setting. Now my problem is communicating the need of changing our hearts towards a personal relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. Does false prophets change the message of the Good news of Jesus Christ. No,  wait for 2015 and or 2020. More dates will come in that time frame creating a major change in Christian thinking going to a pre  United States Civil war type of world view. This issue is are we becoming apart of a meaningful discipleship experience. If looking for a home church try the Church of God Clv Tn. If in Tulsa OK visit Freedom Life Church of God or other Church of God Churches within our city.

Jeremiah and other Old Testament Prophets calls us to renew our commitment too our Father's word. Set ourselves apart from the pagan influences around us. This does not mean we do not obey the laws of the Land,  we do obey them and we do this as long as they laws do not cause us to comprise our Faith. But we have to use wisdom   and work within the laws the we live under to developing relationships expanding the Kingdom of God. Praying for the well being and blessing of thous in authority over us. Seeking Gods favor and blessings for the country that we live in. We may not like where we are, but as Jeremiah He tried to warn and prepare Israel for the next cycle of Judgment due to lack of Israel not obeying or Father's word. Just as with Israel; the route we take will determine the blessing we will have - where we live.  For example are we learning how to make money in the countries we live in are just getting buy.

Understanding Biblical Prophecy.2

Biblical Prophecy is about knowing whom Jesus is as Lord, and how He makes himself known from generation to generation. The basics of this is Trust in the message as well as building relationships. I wish biblical prophecy would be as simple as the "end is near" but is is not. Biblical prophecy reinforces the need for holiness in our personal lives,  separating us from sin. Understanding that Jesus is Lord. For He is the  authority over everything that is needed at any given time. Yet if it is not happening like it should be our we thinks it should be happening, maybe it should not be happening. Since we are all given faith to deal with life issues or else we would not be dealing with them.

Understanding Biblical Prophecy.

I am sorry, I have not posted for a while I had to set back and re think things through as to goals of this page. I am amazed at the intrest in biblical prophecy, rather than the basics. My frustration is due to the lack of basic teaching we set our self up for dates like May 21as well as the year 2012 the end will not come. We will see prophetic signs in various traditions with people saying that they are right; Trying to justify themselves for marketing and fund raising issues but bottom line. Our Lord will come when He comes not on any date given by so called prophets.
We do not need too forget that these are the last days, we are living them out in our life time as any believer as since the start of the Church. The Kingdom of God is here and is now.
