When the Waters Ran Deep

When the Waters Ran Deep.

waters upon the earth

babylon

Genesis 7:6  And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
Genesis 7:10  And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
Genesis 7:17  ¶And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.
Genesis 7:18  And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
Genesis 7:19  And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
Genesis 7:24  And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.

Thus it was, that they ran, full and deep,
Such waters that had never been seen before.
We had been an unrighteous generation,
We had known better, for all had considered this God,
But also decided to cast off his truths for better, we thought.
It was a bitter time of judgment, one that we did not escape.
There was one, though, a righteous man, named Noah.
His was a manner after this eternal LORD he said,
One in whom the Fathers had taught him,
One in whom, this God did speak and say unto him,
‘Build a boat, Noah, for I will flood the earth’,
‘For I will destroy this wickedness upon the earth, the generation of rebellion’.

The water did come, but not before a time of witnessing the building,
For Noah and his sons did build this great boat, of wood, gopher the type,
Such was one so large, the people did mock the size thereof,
But this did not stop him nor his call to finish the work before the waters came.

When the rain first started, the mocking increased, for even these did not understand,
nor did they consider at the time what was happening.
Rain came, the first day, soft at first, then after five days, continued hard,
Such as had not been seen before, all the city gathered to play hard in the melee,
For water began flooding the streets, but we continued in our own ways, again,
We did not consider this God whom Noah warned about,
We did not think to do as our hearts beat within us led us too,
For we were about the rebellion of the day.

Genesis 6:5  And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

The floods began in earnest after 15 days or so, the time is not exact, I was aware,
Yea, that these would not let up, just as Noah had said, but then I was there,
Yea, again listen fast, understand, I saw the finger of God close the door,
Stunned in the looking of it, I saw this hand, very large, with a finger,
Such did close fast the doorway to the great boat that Noah had built.
We even ignored and mocked when he gathered the animals as he was to do.
They also came, two by two, as if led by some strange force,
They came, neither fighting nor clawing their way,
But all animals, both fierce and tame, walked as friends on that day,
Into the great boat, that Noah built.
Even this did not pursuade a soul to seek the truth Noah spake.

The water came in rivers of torrents from the mountains and into the valleys,
Down the corridors of the plains, violent, white caps of death that came,
All who had ignored it still climbed to higher peaks, holding fast to what they could,
But as they climbed higher, so the waters moved up abruptly,
Moving in gigantic swells of white turbulent death, these came toward all,
There was no escape, but even as these did come, nether man nor women did tell,
Yea, of their reasons for ignoring the warnings of the righteous man Noah,
It was a generation void of understanding and rebellion was their seed,
and in their days, wickedness became their crop which they did reap from.

The waters became huge tall mountains, so tall, I have never seen before,
At the top, the height of a mountain, and moving as a giant swathe over the lands,
It came at all before it, swamping it in huge waves of white foamy death upon those,
Yea the souls had no leaway to escape, they had nowhere to run,
The activities of the people in all quarters gave way to surviving,
NO thought was given to previous things they had been doing, nay,
These now gave thought only to escaping these ‘Waters that ran deep’.

The white boiling mass, moving fast upon the land, heaved and gave way again,
Then regrouped itself to rise again and run upon the surface of all the liquid,
It did not stop, for days it rose, days it had rained, first ignoring it,
Yea, then later giving ourselves to escaping the brunt of it, but nowhere to run.
It was then, as the waters came past the knee’s, to the waist, then the neck,
where life and breathe are at risk, it was at the last possible moment…
The very last, as cries rang out, as people went under, as the water covered it all,
Yea, that this generation understood the judgment of God, as the ‘Waters ran deep.’

Matthew 24:37  But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38  For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39  And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

So now, be warned oh generation, be aware of sons of men,
be still oh stubborn hearts, this God, the One true LORD has given his call,
First to repent, second to change heart, and third to obey his ways,
Ignore the wickedness and the ones who charge in their stubborness,
Yea in their proud hearts, saying that this is not so!
But be warned oh proud hearts, neither soul, nor flesh, nation, nor people,
Nor any power on earth can sway this from the coming portion which is due.

For just as the ‘Waters ran deep’ on that day, so will this generation suffer its own,
Again, the judgment will ‘run deep and hard’, against the backdrop of proud hearts,
Willfully wicked persons who deny the One True God, and his Son Yeshua, The Christ, Jesus, Who came to save all men from the fate of such judgment!
Yea, all it is for you to do this day?
Repent with good motive in heart and soul, giving all thy heed to this God who calls to you!

PENNSYLVANIA SUPREME COURT RULES ”HATE CRIMES” LAW PASSED ILLEGALLY

Law used against ”Philadelphia 11” violated Pennsylvania Constitution

PHILADELPHIA — Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore and attorneys with the Foundation for Moral Law applauded the Pennsylvania Supreme Court for its ruling yesterday in Marcavage v. Rendell affirming that the state legislature violated the Pennsylvania Constitution when it added “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” to Pennsylvania”s “ethnic intimidation” law (18 Pa. C.S. § 2710) in 2002.

The Foundation, along with attorney Aaron D. Martin, represented Christian evangelists Michael Marcavage, Mark Diener, Randall and Linda Beckman, Susan Startzell, Arlene Elshinnawy, and Nancy Major, who in 2004 were arrested and charged under the “ethnic intimidation” law for evangelizing at a tax-payer funded homosexual event called “OutFest”. The Christian evangelists sued and the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania agreed that the law was unconstitutional and struck it down. On appeal the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, in a short per curiam order, agreed with the Commonwealth Court”s opinion and the Christian evangelists” appellate brief filed by the Foundation.

Judge Roy Moore remarked on this historic case:

“We are very happy that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has ruled in our favor to stop the Governor and a group of corrupt politicians from sneaking a ”hate crimes” bill through the Pennsylvania legislature. Preaching to homosexuals about the sin of sodomy should not be made a ”thought crime” in Pennsylvania or any other state.”

In the appellate brief filed March 17, 2008, the Foundation and attorney Martin argued to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court that the legislature”s altering of an “agricultural crop destruction” bill into an amendment to the “ethnic intimidation” law–making crimes motivated by “sexual orientation,” “gender identity” and other classes subject to greater punishment (Act No. 2002-143, HB 1493)–violated, among other provisions, Article III, Section 1 of the Pennsylvania Constitution: “No law shall be passed except by bill, and no bill shall be so altered or amended, on its passage through either House, as to change its original purpose.” The Commonwealth Court agreed that the “ethnic intimidation” amendment violated Section 1 and now so has the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

Michael Marcavage, director of Repent America and a petitioner in the case, said:

“Having been arrested, jailed and charged with a ”hate crime” for preaching the Gospel, I am elated that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court upheld the lower court”s ruling in striking down Pennsylvania”s expanded ”hate crimes” law. The methods used by the Pennsylvania legislature in passing the ”hate crimes” bill were extremely devious and yet another chilling example as to how far politicians are willing to go to silence Christian speech that they would violate our own state Constitution to do it. In a nation that is becoming increasingly hostile toward Biblical Christianity, we remain vigilant as the Pennsylvania legislature will most likely attempt to pass another ”hate crimes” bill and are continuing to educate the American people on the significant dangers of such laws.”

The Foundation for Moral Law is a non-profit, religious liberties organization located in Montgomery, Alabama, dedicated to restoring the knowledge of God in law and government through litigation and education relating to moral issues and religious liberty.

JUSTICE DENIED TO PHILADELPHIA 11

JUSTICE DENIED TO PHILADELPHIA 11

Appeals court rules against/for Christians arrested at “OutFest 2004″

PHILADELPHIA — Despite being vindicated of all wrongdoing in criminal court, the Philadelphia 11 lost their federal lawsuit against the City of Philadelphia when an appeals court ruled that their rights were not violated when they were arrested and jailed for attempting to witness and preach the Gospel at a homosexual event in 2004. The suit was filed on behalf of eleven Christians, who became known as the Philadelphia 11, who were cleared of “hate crime” and other felony and misdemeanor charges following their arrests at the City’s annual tax-payer funded homosexual event called “OutFest”.

PHILADELPHIA — Despite being vindicated of all wrongdoing in criminal court, the Philadelphia 11 lost their federal lawsuit against the City of Philadelphia when an appeals court ruled that their rights were not violated when they were arrested and jailed for attempting to witness and preach the Gospel at a homosexual event in 2004. The suit was filed on behalf of eleven Christians, who became known as the Philadelphia 11, who were cleared of “hate crime” and other felony and misdemeanor charges following their arrests at the City’s annual tax-payer funded homosexual event called “OutFest”.

CASE OVERVIEW

On October 10, 2004, six men and five women with Repent America (RA), who became known as the Philadelphia 11, were arrested while ministering the Gospel on the public streets and sidewalks of Philadelphia at a $10,000 tax-payer funded celebration of homosexuality called “OutFest,” which was organized by Philly Pride Presents, Inc.

Prior to their arrest, the Christians were confronted by a militant mob of homosexuals known as the “Pink Angels” who blew loud whistles and carried large pink signs in front of them to block their message and access to the event, while others screamed obscenities. The Philadelphia police, under the direction of Chief Inspector James Tiano, the City’s “police liaison to the gay and lesbian community,” refused to take any action as the Christians were continuously followed, obstructed, and harassed, even though they respectfully cooperated with police, obeying orders to move, short of being directed out of the event.

After spending 21 hours in jail, Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham’s office charged them under Pennsylvania’s hate crimes law called “Ethnic Intimidation,” along with a host of other felony and misdemeanor charges. If convicted, the Philadelphia 11 could have faced up to 47 years in prison and $90,000 in fines each. These charges were later dismissed by Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas Judge Pamela Dembe as being without merit. Subsequently, on October 21, 2005, the Philadelphia Eleven filed a federal lawsuit against the City of Philadelphia and Philly Pride Presents, Inc. for violations of their civil rights.

While, in its decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for The Third Circuit did ultimately side with the City of Philadelphia, it did make some important rulings which should serve to support the rights of Christians to speak in the public square. In its decision, the appeals court rejected U.S. District Court Judge Lawrence F. Stengel’s decision from earlier this year in which he ruled that the Philadelphia 11 should have been prohibited from engaging in their constitutional rights on the public streets and sidewalks because “once the City issued a permit to Philly Pride for OutFest, it was empowered to enforce the permit by excluding persons expressing contrary messages.” The appeals court found that despite the fact that the event organizers had a permit, the Philadelphia 11 had a constitutionally protected right to be present on the public streets and sidewalks within the event area and convey their message, even though that message was counter to the message being conveyed by the event.

Nevertheless, the appeals court found that the actions of the police were justified based on the court’s perception that the Philadelphia 11 were “disrupting the event.” The court came to this conclusion even though the Christians were not charged, arrested or even threatened with arrest for being “disruptive”, which would have been a violation of Pennsylvania law, and after viewing the same video footage that cleared them of all felony and misdemeanor charges in criminal court. Despite overwhelming evidence showing the Christians being drowned out by homosexual activists as they complied with police directives to move, the Court made its ruling in favor of the defendants based on false and unsubstantiated “disruption” claims, which, since they were in dispute, should have been presented to a jury to decide.

Watch the video of the Philadelphia 11′s arrests.

“The court’s ruling that the action taken by the police was justified because the Philly 11 were disrupting the event is concerning,” said Ted Hoppe, the attorney for the Philadelphia 11. “We believe that a review of the video footage of the event clearly shows that the Philly 11 went out of their way to be cooperative and not be disruptive themselves. The only disruption that occurred, if any, was due to the crowd’s reaction to the message that the Philly 11 was conveying,” Hoppe continued. “It is encouraging that the court affirmed the rights of Christians to go into the public square and engage in free speech activities,” Hoppe said. “However, it does seem somewhat contradictory to say that, on the one had the Philly 11 had a constitutionally protected right to be present at the event and to speak, but then to also say that if the crowd does not like their message, the Philly 11 can be removed,” Hoppe concluded.

“The only disruption that took place that day was to our freedom of religion and speech,” Michael Marcavage, director of Repent America (RA) and one of the Philadelphia 11. “The video evidence clearly shows that it was the homosexual activists who were drowning out our message of hope and redemption through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. As the homosexuals blocked us with Styrofoam boards, blew whistles in our faces and chanted profanities, the police did absolutely nothing to stop them,” Marcavage continued. “In its opinion, the court made us out to be the ones causing the disruption, when it was completely the other way around. The appeals court upheld our rights to be at the event, but denied us justice at the same time,” Marcavage continued. “The result in this case is another dangerous example of how hostility toward Biblical Christianity is growing in our nation, and ultimately how homosexual extremism will not only silence those who share their faith publicly, but the pulpit itself,” Marcavage concluded.

In a related case, Repent America successfully had Pennsylvania’s “hate crimes” law expansion struck down by Pennsylvania’s Commonwealth Court because it had been passed unconstitutionally in November of last year. The “hate crime” law, formally known as “Ethnic Intimidation”, had been used against the Philadelphia 11. Pennsylvania Governor Edward Rendell appealed the Commonwealth’s ruling to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which will be heard in the coming months. Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore and attorneys with the Foundation for Moral Law are arguing the case on behalf of Repent America.

In your Patience ‘Possess’ ye your souls

In your Patience ‘Possess’ ye your souls
By the Watchman Dana G Smith
Keywords: Lord God, Americas, repent, judgment

babylon

In the course of human events there stands one, in his providence, the judge of us all. It is then, we as a people, a nation, and on course to fulfill history, will see with an eye that thing which will come to pass. From this the concourse of the Americas, the people who gave their concise admonition unto the LORD God, had seen a divine vision, fulfilling that vision the land came into being one nation. This then fulfilled the dreams of the many that came. Yet without prejudice the people moved through history and received of that divine providence the benefits of a merciful creator.

It is with a great grief of heart that that nation has been decreed to destruction by the Almighty. With vision of portent the people who live in this great land will experience great grief. Thus, in the agony, the judgment and warning of the Almighty God, who in his justice will give unto the peoples that which they have so long labored for. Thus unto the wicked will be given the fruits thereof and the reward given will be death. Then unto the righteous will be given the fruits thereof and the reward given will be life. For the Lord God, giveth to all men readily as they have labored thereunto. He is no respecter of persons.

For the Wages of sin, “the Lord will repay”. Thus there are those who are the Lords, he will save them “with the right hand of his righteousness.” Again, the Lord is no respecter of persons. It is given then, this ‘Vault of Death’, being the America, which was stabilized and brought into birth so long ago, has been given the decree.

“for those who refuse to repent, both Jew and Gentile, Male and Female, in the church, and those outside of the church, i.e. ‘those who do wickedly’, ‘the children of disobedience’, the Lords wrath abides on them. For those, then, America will become the ‘Vault of Death’; there will be no escape, except in the LORD God and his only begotten Son Jesus Christ.”

“and unto the nations, the Lord will bring the judgment around to their doorsteps. Their laughter will be turned to mourning, their joy to bitterness, as the LORD God will be exalted and the pride of men will be brought low.”

For the times and seasons of men and nations, the LORD God controls. He is the governor of the nations. He is exalted in the heavens. He alone is the one to whom all knees shall bow and all tongues confess. In the times of ‘fear, turmoil, turbulence, uncertainty, wars, disorders, natural disasters, bloodshed, and godlessness’ shall the snare be laid. It is upon the nations, behold as the Lord has brought ‘fear, pit, and the snare’, he shall also give life unto those who repent and seek his face. For the LORD is full of mercy and grace, he giveth such to those who seek his face early.

For in such times, men will face deceptions, deceivers, false prophets, false Christ’s, false gospels, false spirits, such as men has never seen before. Their hearts full of these will fail them for the things that have come upon the earth. For all things shall be shaken, the earth, below the earth, and above the earth. The heavens are the LORDS, and the earth is his footstool. Behold, all ye who dwell upon the earth and look to the Eternal for thy salvation.

Amidst this, those who are called by my name, upon whom is my spirit, and in whom is my word, they shall be saved. But unto these shall be given that which has been dealt unto all thy brethren in the world. For the world hateth thee and all which you represent. The evil one even now is making war against you, but behold, in my name shall you conquer. You have already overcome by the ‘blood of the lamb’, and shall beat down the oppressor by the ‘word of your testimony’, and will come into the victorious glory by ‘loving your lives not unto the death.’ For this is the time written afore of shaking, tribulation, wars, and natural disasters. It is a time of hatred, violence, betrayal, persecution, and even death. Blood shall be upon blood, and those who shed such shall be rewarded. For it is the ‘days of vengeance’ written about. It is the ‘snare’ which was to come upon all the earth. For Lord speaketh from the heavens, yet, the world shakes as his word goes forth.

Exodus 19:18  And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.

Acts 2:19  And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

Isaiah 13:13  Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

Hebrews 12:26  Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

For the Lord has said to us in Luke 21:19, “In your patience possess ye your souls.” For those who see these things, let it be said that we must have patience, that is:

Strongs patience #5281-perserverance, endurance, patient waiting. This is from a related word meaning #5259-as in status or authority and also from #3306-remain, live, dwell, to be in a state that begins and continues, as in ‘to abide in Christ’.

In our patient waiting, as we observe and live during these times, endurance must be ours, perseverance must be obtained, that is by means of remaining, dwelling, and living in a state of ‘abiding in Christ’ and no other, for we do not arm ourselves with the flesh, or have confidence in the flesh or this world. Our confidence, hope, and eternal reward is Christ Jesus, the hope of Glory, the only begotten son of God.

In doing this then, our patience, which we will preserver in, endure in, and obtain our conversation in Christ, will allow us to gain or Possess:

Strongs possess #2932-to get, gain, to control, provide, and possess. This is related to Strongs 2933, wealth and possession.

Our patience then will allow us to get gain, which is to control, and possess our souls or psuche. Psuche, meaning our seat of affections, will, desire, emotions, mind, reason, and understanding. This gaining is to control, take possession of that area that many lose. The seat of affections, which during these times of turmoil, fear shall come upon men, their hearts failing them. For those who are moving in ‘patience’, enduring, and abiding in Christ, getting control of and gaining their own emotions, will, reason, and understanding. Thus finding the purpose of God will be theirs. Revelation of Gods purpose, his love for you, filled with his peace, and walking in a true relationship with him, will be your gain or possession. In doing this, patience possessing your souls, you will gain your spirit, eternal life, and find true safety in the LORD God Eternal.

You will not be walking in fear as many others. Knowing the times and the seasons, understanding the Lord and not fearful of his wrath. It will be then that you will understand that you will not see the ‘wrath of God.’ For you ‘abide in the LORD God, his only begotten son Jesus Christ.

For many shall find that their nation, leaders, armies, silver, gold, supplies, nor any other arm of the flesh shall deliver them on that day.

Ezekiel 7:19  They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

But those who have understood, accepted, and sought the LORD, repenting of their wickedness shall find salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

1 Thessalonians 5:9  For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

For the many will not understand, they will not see clearly, nor hear. But the righteous shall understand, hear, and find the salvation of our LORD and our God.

Revelation 18:4  And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5  For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
6  Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
7  How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8  Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

The LORD God has clearly commanded all men, all people, everywhere to Repent! It is this time and season. Repent of your sin; turn to the LORD God and his only begotten Son Jesus Christ, believing on Him. Turn from your ways, amend them, and follow righteousness, without which, no man shall see the LORD.

Acts 17:30  And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Upon the land destruction.
The Day appointed has arrived.
Souls are lost,
Nations brought low
Waves of destroying power unleashed.

Isaiah 13:11  And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
12  I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13  Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

Where is Hope today,
Lying in the rubble, death finds one.
Then another, and another,
Who can bring help?
Where does my salvation lay?
Screams, anguish, and terror,
In the Isles of men.

Revelation 6:13  And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14  And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15  And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16  And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17  For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Be warned O men..
Alert the nations.
For the Night bring horror.

Awaken you who sleep.
For the night is dangerous,
The enemy cometh.

Psalms 82:5  They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

How can I tell you?
Will you ever listen?
It is not over, not yet!
For the Lord has decreed a decree.
His Word has gone forth.
The nations will sway…
The Earth will be moved…
The Seas angry in their turmoil…
The Sky moving in darkness turns red…
The Day of the Lord is upon the nations.

Joel 2:1  ¶Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
Joel 3:14  Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
Amos 5:18  Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.

Where is my hope?
To whom shall I turn now?
For the Gods have turned us all away!
The Spirits have deceived us…
We are awash in Death…
There is no hope.

Zephaniah 2:3  Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD”S anger.

Men killeth men…
The oxen are slain,
There is no crop…
The harvest is destroyed.
Curses upon the lip,
Hopelessness of soul,
The world is laid bare,
Yet, another calamity comes.

Zephaniah 3:8  ¶Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

Thus Saith the Eternal,
‘Can you refuse me, Oh man?’
Turn now, and move to stop the hand of the Lord.
For the nations, it has been decreed, shall be shaken.
For Earth, it has been decreed, will be moved.
The souls of men, it has been decreed, will be stirred.
The plight of the people will be brought low,
For the flesh is as Grass,
Life as a vapor,
Yes, it perishes.

1 Peter 1:24  ¶For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
25  But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

‘Seek me and live’, saith the LORD.
Turn, and Repent of thy wickedness,
Refrain from evil,
Seek the Eternal God,
The Holy One.
There is no other,
For upon the nations…
My decree has come…
This is the Day of the LORD.

Isaiah 43:10  Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11  I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
12  I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.

Revelation 21:24  And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
25  And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26  And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27  And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb”s book of life.
