As the nations come against the Lord and His people, which side will you stand on? 
The Ominous “Success”of Re-Education
by Berit Kjos
October 5, 2009
“The purpose of education and the schools is to change the thoughts, feelings and actions of students.” [1]
“As the home and church decline in influence… schools must begin to provide adequately for the emotional and moral development of children. …The school… must assume a direct responsibility for the attitudes and values of child development. The child advocate, psychologist, social technician, and medical technician should all reach aggressively into the community, send workers out to children’s homes….” ” Continue reading »
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.” When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born. They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea; for this is what has been written by the prophet
‘AND YOU, BETHLEHEM, LAND OF JUDAH,
ARE BY NO MEANS LEAST AMONG THE LEADERS OF JUDAH;
FOR OUT OF YOU SHALL COME FORTH A RULER
WHO WILL SHEPHERD MY PEOPLE ISRAEL.’ ”Then Herod secretly called the magi and determined from them the exact time the star appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the Child; and when you have found Him, report to me, so that I too may come and worship Him.
— Matthew 2:1-8 (NASB)
One of the repeated teachings at Moriel is that prophecy is not so much about the fulfillment of specific events at a specific pre-set date and time as much as it is really patterns which repeat themselves, growing ever stronger until their last, ultimate fulfillment. That is why a lot of what we understand about Christ’s Second Coming is foreshadowed – a pattern – revealed during His First Coming. Learning as much as we can about His First Coming teaches a great deal about how things will ultimately take place at His Second Coming. And I have a very strong suspicion that we are seeing some of these things taking place right now. The religious authorities of the day knew Scripture so well that without hesitation they answered the Magis’ question about the Messiah, but like many today, they were completely blind to actually seeing it take place.

Note: This review is based on the electronic version of Joel Richardson’s book published on his website “Joel’s Trumpet”.
The Internet has been abuzz with varying views and reviews of Joel Richardson’s book promoted by World Net Daily titled, The Islamic Antichrist. The book offers interesting comment and some insightful observations but seeks to challenge and reverse the popular teaching of Babylon the Great being related to either Roman Catholicism or a revived Roman Empire, but instead belonging to the Islamic world.

The Bible says, “My people perish for lack of knowledge!” In America and other countries, our nations are literally being transformed into totalitarian states where we are losing our religious and personal freedoms. Pastors who teach the Bible and Bible believing Christians are going to be increasingly persecuted, imprisoned and fined. Under the new constitutions and legal interpretations that are being put in place, we are losing our freedom of religion, freedom of speech and freedom of the press. The day has already come where pastors who are faithful to teach the entire Bible are being fined and arrested. Continue reading »
I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast; they worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?”
Revelation 3:3-4Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.
Matthew 5:13
The number one reason at the top of my list as to why I believe we are living in the Last Days is because of the changes I’ve witnessed within the church during my lifetime. Yes, the return of Jews to Israel and events in the Mideast are a sign of the end. Yes, the rise of a global monetary system is a sign of the end. Yes, the efforts of the Catholic church to consolidate all religions is a sign of the end. I believe these and a great many more of the same kind of events are literally fulfilling God’s Word in our lifetime, but they are not the number one reason I believe the return of Christ is more imminent than ever. The first and foremost reason I believe we’ve arrived at the eve of the Last Days is that the church is no longer the salt of the earth and has, literally, become tasteless. Continue reading »

Marching towards Gog & Magog (Ezekial 38 & 39) Obama makes deal with Russia allowing Russia to continue to see nuclear technology to Iran – Jacob Prasch
The release of a world currency by the G8, governments toppled in South America and riots in the streets of Iran pale in comparison to what is about to happen between Israel and Iran. Nuclear armed subs have been sent by Israel into the Red Sea and Russia is arming Iran with very sophisticated missile technology. Meanwhile President Obama’s “sensitivity workshop” foreign policy between Russia, Iran and Israel will unleash catastrophic forces, major terrorist attacks and a regional thermonuclear war.

As I wrote in earlier articles, there is coming an onslaught of persecution against Christians specifically in Western nations like the U.S., Great Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Australia and many other nations that the church and its leadership are completely unprepared for. The level and intensity of persecution against true Bible believing Christians will be exceed the level of Christians in Communist China and most Christians in America and Europe do not yet comprehend what is coming.

There is a coming a wave of persecution against Bible believing Christians in Western nations such as Great Britain, France, Germany, the United States and other nations. The Church in all of these nations is totally unprepared for the level and intensity of the assault that is to come against true Christians. First, of all the primary reason for such persecution is that the Church in Western nations has in many cases forsaken the true God and has turned to false gods. They have chosen to leave the truth of God’s Word for the philosophy of humanism. They call themselves and Christians, but in reality they are worshippers of what Dr. Francis Schaeffer used to call the “gods of personal peace and prosperity.” Continue reading »

There is a convergence of military, economic, spiritual and political events that amount to a Prophetic Perfect Storm. First we have a global economic meltdown which has turned up the heat hot for the United States, the EU, Russia, the Arab nations, Iran, Pakistan, Israel, China, Mexico and just about every nation on Planet Earth. Global economies are reeling and nation-states are desperate to economically survive and prosper. Now comes the big crisis which is Israel, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and nuclear weapons in the hands of militant Islam.
If Pakistan falls to the Taliban, al Qaeda will have 60 nuclear weapons. The balance of power will radically change for militant Islam! Continue reading »

My spiritual mentor, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, who has been called the greatest Evangelical theologian of the last 100 years, warned that as the anarchy increased in our world due to moral relativism, that totalitarianism would rise to control the chaos. Schaeffer issued that warning over 30 years ago and said we had a brief window in which to preserve our religious freedoms. Dr. Schaeffer believed that the greatest contributing factor to the rise of totalitarianism was the fact that the Evangelical Church was accommodating to a growing humanist culture and not standing for Biblical truth. Nowhere is that more apparent than in the “Emergent Church Movement” and in the “Seeker-Friendly Movement,” but it is epidemic in the Evangelical culture as a whole. Tragically, what Schaeffer predicted would happen in the church and the culture is now happening before our eyes. Schaeffer stated that it did not matter whether or not the totalitarianism came from the left or the right because the results would be the same. Continue reading »

Moshe Feiglin, head of Manhigut Yehudit (Jewish Leadership Movement) said last week that if he was elected prime minister, he would try to rebuild the destroyed Temple in Jerusalem.
“I don’t know if I will have the merit of doing something that is the aspiration of every Jew,” said Feiglin. “But if I become prime minister I will take away control over the Temple Mount from the Wakf [the Islamic trust] and reinstate Jewish sovereignty over the entire mount and, hopefully, rebuild the Temple.” Continue reading »
Jacob,
My wife asked me a question about Matt 24:24, “..so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.”I can’t yet make sense of the Greek tenses, voices, etc, to know if it is saying:
(a) Negatively it is possible, but not probable.
(b) Affirmatively it is possible
(c) Remotely possible
(d) Not at all possible.This summary I found on the internet seems correct:
“If this verse is referring to an “elect” it is also saying that they can’t be deceived about FALSE CHRISTS AND FALSE PROPHETS. It DOES NOT SAY they can’t be deceived about other things, since we have referred to those scriptures that show the whole world has been deceived and that the church has been subject to deception.”
Could you tell me how you view this passage in the Greek text? Continue reading »
