Sorry it has been a while since I have posted, but that is because I have been busy posting videos to YouTube and BItChute. I am hoping to eventually upgrade this website to allow me to at least embed a link to those shows on this channel.
Does this mean that this site will be forgotten? No! Not in the least. I intend to keep this page going with updates and other resources every week. If you look at the schedule, I am busy posting videos Mon to Thurs. Friday i plan to update and add information on here. I hope you all like the schedule.

I have been studying the “End of Times” for over 40 years and in all that time I have noticed a few things. First off, most authors assume the Rapture will take place before the “End of Times.” This is indeed a possibility. Yet, there is nothing that I have read that says for sure that that is the schedule the Lord has. When the time of the “Rapture’ will be varies depending on the author. Many support the idea it will happen before, but there is indeed a strong possibility that it will not.
Other authors have placed the time of the Rapture at the midpoint, some place it before the Battle of Armageddon and still others place it in different places. I have read some compelling reasons for each of the different places. I am personally of the opinion that it will happen sometime after the middle of Tribulation. That would mean that we as a Church would need to prepare for at least three and a half years of the Tribulation. Another thing I noticed in my readings, was that almost no one discusses how to survive the Tribulation. I assume this is because so many people are positive that the Rapture will happen pre-Tribulation. Even if this is your belief, I have two questions for you to ponder: First, what if you are wrong? And Second, are you sure that the country you are in will be around when the “End of Times” starts? There are only so many countries that are listed as being part of the EOT. There are some we can assume will be or might be. For example the 10 nations that sign a treaty with Israel that are headed by the Anti-Christ are not named. Most researchers assume these countries will be those that were part of the Roman Empire; so mainly countries in Europe. What about the rest of the world? Will it simply go on as if nothing has changed? That does not seem very possible to me. Knowing or believing that many of the countries that are active in today’s world political landscape will no longer be as important or even present means that many of us live in places that will have to undergo a change. Are you ready for that change? Especially are you ready if the world were to face a major cataclysmic situation? That is something I hope you will consider and you continue to read this website and soon start listening to the videos that we will be posting. AT When someone asks you who you are, well sometimes that is not an easy question. Who am I? There are many ways to answer this question but today I am going to answer it this way.
I am a Christian. I am not a great Christian or in any way perfect. I have a lot of room to grow in my relationship with Christ. You see that is the great thing about our Lord, He will work with us and help us grow with Him. I was called to be a preacher when I was in Middle School and began preaching and teaching when I was in 8th grade or so. Then like many other people I got angry at the world and selfish and rebelled against my calling. I wanted to be famous, I wanted to be rich. I wanted to be popular. Well I enlisted in the Army and did not like it. In my life I have worked in advertising, been a security guard, worked at an assembly plant, eventually I started driving bus and did that for almost 20 years. I have driven well over a million miles professionally as well as driven in three different countries professionally. The biggest thing I have done in my life is being a full time father. I have spent the last 16 years being a single father of five kids and raising my kids with the help of my family. 2020 was a milestone year for my children, as this last year all four of my boys graduated high school. For the oldest two, that was because they finally got around to finishing high school through an online high school program. The youngest took advantage of the situation with covid to attend an online high school program and he graduated in several months versus the year and a half he would normally have taken to finish. I am very proud of all my children as they now start looking and working towards being productive members of society and living their lives for Christ. Yet for all the different jobs I did and all the things I tried I was never really happy. There is a reason for this of course. I was not doing what God wanted me to do. So now I am in my 50s and realize that I need to do what God wants me to do. In this case it is to help others not walk the way I did and to wake up. So many of us walk around basically asleep. We are so asleep we are almost dead when it comes to our life with Christ. We may or may not go to Church. This is not a priority to us. We rarely if ever even mention Christ in our daily lives. Why? Because we are lukewarm and heading towards being cold. We are the Laodicean Church and sadly logic says that for most of the world, we are actually a bit more on the colder side than is really safe. How can I say that? Well look around the world today and see where the Church is on fire and growing: CHINA. The church is growing in places that are not Christian. That means they are on fire and the rest of the Church is kind of cold. I use the word Church, not to describe a building or even a particular denomination but rather to denote the body of Christ or ALL those who are Christians. We are the Church. As I write this I have lots of thoughts of what will be on this website and I know it is pretty sparse right now. Be Patient. It will grow and Lord willing this site and ministry will help you lead a more productive Fire filled life in Christ. It will help you prepare for the end of times and become a disciple of Christ who is prepared to wait constructively. |
