1 Kings 10:14 [ Solomon’s Splendor ] The weight of the gold that Solomon received yearly was 666 talents.
Revelation 13:18 This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666.
It is amazing that the number 666 appears in both the Old and the New Covenant. And that the number only can be understood, after a calculation. King Solomon did not have our numerical understanding of how to calculate, since he was using the Hebrew measure of talent.
If you start to calculate the wealth of a gold collecting King Solomon in metric tons, and compare him to todays biggest Babylonian gold barons, like Federal Reserve System of Central Bank of America, you will find out who (what) the beast is, and how it has manifested it self in the physical realm as an image.
Do not worship the image. Because the love of money (notes, and soon only electronic numbers for wealth) is the root of all evil. I will publish a Bible study on this important topic.
Only 15 per cent of youth in America say they are Christians. Hundreds of Churches close down every month.
The number of true Christians in America is in rapid decline.
There are an estimated 100,000 churches in North America that would be deemed terminal by most pundits. There are another 100,000 to 200,000 that are very sick and could soon be on the deathwatch.
According to our estimates, only 15 percent of the Millennial generation, born 1980 to 2000, are Christians. We are losing our nation for Christ. In the meantime, hundreds of churches close each month. Many more are on the precipice of death.
And while church revitalization may not be the only instrument God uses, it has to be a critical instrument in this spiritual battle.
Would you join in prayer about this urgent and critical need?
Would you consider how God might use you in the effort?
The saddest part of Christianity are Christians who deny the scriptures. They set them selves above God, and claim they know better than Him.
One of the deceptions of our time, is linked to false teachings about an “end time revival”, a massive outpouring of the Holy Spirit is our days.
The is absolutely nothing about this is the scriptures. To the radical opposite the last days will be understood as the age of false teachings, apostasy and deception.
In the book of Daniel, Jesus explains that close to the end of the age of grace, the power of he Holy people will be completely broken. Few if any are willing to listen and obey. The presence of the Holy Spirit will simply not be there.
The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, lifted his right hand and his left hand towards heaven, and I heard him swear by him who lives for ever, saying, ‘It will be for a time, times and half a time. When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed.’
God of the Bible do not take pleasure in the fleshy apostasy of men.
Jesus asked Him self if he will find faith when he returns.
He also warn all believers that many will fall from faith, and take the broad road towards destruction. Some few will continue on the narrow path, a an make it through the narrow gates of Heaven.
You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.
Are you one of them who spread false doctrines, and follow the path of false prophets?
Have you started to compromise?
Have you become a lover of the World?
Do you understand that many claimed to be Christians do the devils work in the name of “Jesus”?
Repent and perish. Come back to your first love, and accept that the whole World will hate you. If not, you will face judgment and eternal punishment.
A desperate search is underway for survivors after a giant two-mile wide tornado roared through the suburbs of Oklahoma leaving dozens dead, including seven children who drowned in a pool of water at their school.
Horror: Teachers carry children away from Briarwood Elementary school after a tornado destroyed the school in south Oklahoma City.
Plaza Towers Elementary in Oklahoma City was in the direct path of the giant twister that ravaged Moore on Monday afternoon and today rescuers were combing the debris to find 24 students who went missing after the building took a direct hit during 45 minutes of terror.
Initial reports said as many as 91 people could have been killed in the tragedy, but officials confirmed on Tuesday morning there have been 24 deaths.
They added they fear for as many as 40 others – including 20 children – and expect the death count to rise. At least 240 people are injured – 60 of these children.
In the last 24 hours the AMS has received confirmed reports about 4 unique fireball events all occurring near 4:00 AM UTC time. The most recent event occurred in Arkansas and Missouri on May 19th near 3:37 UTC. At the same time 3:37 UTC 4 witnesses reported a fireball in Arizona. The distance between these two locations would inhibit witnesses from observing the same fireball from both locations. On May 18th two large fireball meteors were also spotted within an hour of each other, one over the central east coast and another in Colorado.
The U.S. Geological Survey says an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.8 has struck off the coast
of Chile. The quake was recorded at 5:49 a.m. local time (EDT; 0949 GMT) Monday,
at a shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6.2 miles), some 600 kilometers (370 miles)
from the city of Puerto Quellon. No tsunami warning was issued.
LONDON (AP) — Two respiratory viruses in different parts of the world have captured the attention of global health officials — a novel coronavirus in the Middle East and a new bird flu spreading in China.
Last week, the coronavirus related to SARS spread to France, where one patient who probably caught the disease in Dubai infected his hospital roommate. Officials are now trying to track down everyone who went on a tour group holiday to Dubai with the first patient as well as all contacts of the second patient. Since it was first spotted last year, the new coronavirus has infected 34 people, killing 18 of them. Nearly all had some connection to the Middle East.
Signs of the end times are getting worse. With tornadoes being reported in Kansas and other states, earthquake hitting Guatemala and Canada as well, and diseases across the globe, it’s pretty evident to those in the Lord Jesus, that he is near!
Luke 21:11
There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
Matthew 24:37
For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
It is time we awaken, pray, and preach to those that do not know Christ.
Acts 17:30-31
The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.”
1 Kings 10:14
