IN the NEWS - Hearts Waxing Colder and Harder

Imagine the Level of a Hard Heart---that if you can't kill your child at the hospital--you can do it home!!!!
The heart is deceitful above all things
    and beyond cure.
    Who can understand it?
Jeremiah 17:9

"The latest decision put forth by the British government now allows the killing of preborn babies from home. Tens of thousands of

children whose lives would have been spared during the viral pandemic will instead meet their death by abortion.
The move is a temporary one, limited to two years or whenever the virus crisis is over.
Following a telephone call or e-consultation with a doctor, a woman will be sent two abortion pills that, when taken, will terminate her child, ensuring that the baby will be born dead."

Health Note - Social Distancing Works says Study

Beloved,

I wish above all things that thou mayest....be in health...

3 John 1:2

“The unprecedented measures the city of Wuhan has put in place to reduce social contacts in school and the workplace have helped to control the outbreak,” said Dr. Kiesha Prem, lead author of the

study.

“However, the city now needs to be really careful to avoid prematurely lifting physical distancing measures, because that could lead to an earlier secondary peak in cases. But if they relax the restrictions gradually, this is likely to both delay and flatten the peak.”

The effects of these distancing measures seem to vary by age, with the greatest reductions in new cases among school children and the elderly, and lowest among working-aged adults."

When they Prophesied in Sackcloth

And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. Revelation 11:3

“When the Bible was proscribed by religious and secular authority; ---when its testimony was perverted,

---and every effort made that men and demons could invent to turn the minds of the people from it;
---when those who dared proclaim its sacred truths were hunted, betrayed, tortured, buried in dungeon cells, martyred for their faith, or compelled to flee to mountain fastnesses, and to dens and caves of the earth—then the faithful witnesses prophesied in sackcloth. Yet they continued their testimony throughout the entire period of 1260 years."

Creation Moment 3/31/2020 - Biden and that "thing"

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness... Genesis 1:26

"A politician’s flub in a campaign speech points to a deeper problem in our culture caused by evolutionism.

On March 2, in a campaign rally in Texas, Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden flubbed trying to quote from the Declaration of Independence:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”

Has the omnipotent Creator, the source of our natural rights, been reduced by some politicians to “the thing”?

The statement from Declaration reads, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Some commentators are simply listing this flub as another gaffe for which the Democrat Senator and former VP is prone.
Others are calling this a clue that Biden may be slipping into senile dementia. (If true, that would be tragic, not funny.)
Radio host Rush Limbaugh, though, considers this a sign that Biden was lucid and intentional. According to World Tribune, Limbaugh says that Biden knew what he was doing and omitted the reference to “our Creator.”

He’s trying to tell them we know it’s God, I can’t say God, Creator, you know what I’m talking about, you know the thing, you know it, I can’t say it. That’s what he’s saying to ’em. Don’t doubt me on this, folks. He didn’t forget God. He didn’t forget endowed by Creator. He knows that.

The Democrat Party omitted references to God in its party platform, Limbaugh reminded his listeners."

IN the NEWS - Gordon Brown's Call to Reverse Babel

So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth:..And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation...
Genesis 11:8/Acts 17:26

"Former prime minister Gordon Brown has called for the creation of a temporary form of global government to be assembled to provide a unified body to tackle coronavirus.

Such an organization could tackle the spread of the virus, coordinate production and distribution of essential equipment, and help deal with the economic fallout from the pandemic, he said.

Mr. Brown’s suggestion comes ahead of an emergency video conference of the G20 countries, which even before it has begun has already seen a standoff between the US and China over responsibility for the virus."

IN the NEWS - Groundwork for Collapse?

Will the COVID-19 Pandemic Lead to a New System that could Result in a New Global Economic World Order?....And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Revelation 13:17

"Trillions of dollars of bank notes tied to ever-growing mountains of un-payable national debts has taken on a life of its own over the years. As the post-1971 years rolled by, society increasingly lost a sense that this human invention called “money” was created to serve humanity rather than rule it, and with that lost sense, money became an idol of worship.

This ripping away took the form of an international pandemic which has resulted in western nations’ economies grinding to a halt with a new $2 Trillion government emergency spending bill unveiled on March 24.

Governments across the Trans-Atlantic have also announced national interventions into banks and private industry in order to force production quotas of vital equipment like ventilators, masks and other medical necessities to meet the increased demand. Banks in Spain have been nationalized (albeit only “temporarily”) to force finance to act in accordance with the needs of society. In America, the Defense Authorization Act and broader War Powers Act passed by President Trump gives the executive broad powers to take over vital industries if needed in order to mobilize the nation to respond to the crisis.

With the mass panic and economic shutdown instigated by COVID-19, markets have lost over 30% of their value and fears of a new great depression have spread far and wide. Rather than impose serious bank regulation like Glass-Steagall to break up the commercial from speculative banks as was done in 1933, the American government has merely unleashed unlimited money printing."

Ecumenical Truce with Egypt?

For I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth.
Exodus 9:14

"Egypt credited her blessings to their many gods. Egypt rejected the knowledge of the true God, which they knew through Joseph, and instead chose to oppress God’s people.

The book of Exodus describes a battle between the God of heaven and the gods of men.

In this conflict God was not seeking a compromise, inter-religious

dialogue or an ecumenical truce with Egypt.
He sought to vindicate his people and deliver them from Egypt.

He defeated the Egyptian gods of the Nile, their gods of the fields and harvest and their gods of the sun, moon, sky, and earth by exposing these worthless idols in the strongest possible way. By targeting their false deities, God showed His absolute sovereignty over them.

If Moses and Aaron had shared the same compromising attitude that exists in the church today, Israel would never have left Egypt. If God’s chosen leaders had followed the popular sentiments of interfaith worship and collaboration, the second book of the Bible would have been called the book of “Ecumenism” and not the book of “Exodus.”

We forget that the true slaves were the ancient Egyptians who were

lost and in need of salvation because of their gods.
The 10 plagues of Egypt were much more than just a judgment.
God was demonstrating His power over all creation."

Creation Moment 3/30/2020 - Ford / Cadillac Morphology?

Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him?
Job 40:2

"Morphology, or studies in comparative anatomy, has no evidential value for well-informed scientists today, and can be of service in proving evolution only for those who do not know the results of modern scientific study.

Accordingly, when the skeleton of the gorilla is stood up alongside that of a man, and it is pointed out that every bone in the one is to be found in the other, it is only as if we were to place a Ford alongside of a Cadillac, and point out how many parts of the one are duplicated in the other. It is only by a trick of logic that such a comparison would lead us to say that the Cadillac has evolved from a Ford.

The man who would seriously apply such a method of comparison to proving that man has evolved from lower animals, does not show much evidence of clear thinking."

The 3 Surprises of the Redeemed

"A Christian once said that when he reached heaven he expected to meet with three causes of wonder.

---He would wonder to find some that he did not expect to see there.
---He would wonder not to see some that he expected to meet, and, lastly,
---he would wonder most to find so unworthy a sinner as himself in the Paradise of God."
Signs of the Times E.G.W.
But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
Galatians 4:18

a Glance at the 8th

"Thou shalt not steal.”  Those four words from Exodus 20:15, the

8th of the 10 Commandments...Stealing not only violates civil laws, but it is also a violation of God’s law (Exodus 20:15; Romans 13:9, Mark 10:19).

Even one of the disciples of Jesus was a thief.  In the heart warming story mentioned in all four gospels (Matthew 26, Mark 14, Luke 7, and John 12) of Mary anointing the feet of Jesus with costly ointment, Judas Iscariot asked why the ointment was not sold and the money given to the poor. 
John 12:6 records that “This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.”   

Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth. Ephesians 4:28."

IN the NEWS - CoronaVirus Marian Apparitions?

Oh here we go.....Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.... 1 Timothy 4:1

"An image that many say is an apparition of the Virgin Mary has been photographed in Argentina. The people of San Carlos suspect it is a sign that Our Lady is watching over them during the coronavirus pandemic. 

The people of San Carlos, Argentina have reported seeing the Virgin Mary in the sky and are sharing a photograph to prove it. The image shows and unusual array of light which bears a resemblance to the Virgin Mary.

Pandemics in particular often spark great changes in societies. In much of the world, coronavirus is not only causing thousands of lives to be lost, but it is also driving many economies into recession.
The impact of these economic troubles remains to be seen, but it could be substantial if we see political upheavals as a result. 

For us, the economics and the politics do not matter so much. We must do all we can to protect human life. And we must do all we can to protect our souls. This is accomplished through the conversion of our hearts to Mary. Every apparition calls for this act."

Papal Notes - Francis Grants Permission to Ask God for Forgiveness

Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Timothy 2:4

"Pope Francis is saying that general absolution of sin — confessing directly to God as opposed to through a priest — applies during the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.

A Vatican tribunal that deals with matters of conscience, including confession, called the Apostolic Penitentiary, issued a notice Friday, stating that though absolution of sin is the usual means through which sins are forgiven by a priest, in times of "grave necessity," such as now with the ongoing spread of the virus, other solutions are needed.

In a Mass celebrated Friday that was livestreamed from Rome, Pope Francis said people who cannot manage to go to confession as a result of being locked down because of the coronavirus or another serious issue, can confess directly to God."

Creation Moment 3/29/2020 - Eyes below and above the Water

...and wonderfully made... Psalm 139:14

"Let us take the eye.
There are several distinct types of eyes, each type being quite efficient as organs of seeing.

But if we take the eye of the higher animals, we become amazed to find an almost identical structure in the cuttlefish or devilfish, which is really a mollusk.
Its eye has all the parts found in the human eye,
a retina,
a sclerotic,
a choroid,
a vitreous humor,
an aqueous humor,
and an adjustable lens,
just as in the eye of one of the higher vertebrates.

Now I can believe that these similar organs could have been created independently for these very distinct classes of animals.
But I cannot believe that this marvelous organ was evolved independently in these two instances by any process of natural development or evolution.
If Darwin used to say that the origin of the eye always gave him a cold shiver, whenever he thought of explaining it by evolution, I do not think that his mental equilibrium would have been restored if he had considered that this organ must have been evolved quite

separately in at least these two instances.
Indeed, this process must have been repeated also once more; for the pecten, another kind of shellfish wholly different from the cuttlefish, has two rows of almost equally perfect eyes around the edge of its body. I cannot force myself to believe that these complete organs of sight were separately and independently evolved by any natural development in these three instances."

Papal Notes - Francis Focus on Gaia rather than God

Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come:
and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Revelation 14:6

"Pope Francis told a Spanish journalist that he believes that the coronavirus pandemic is nature “having a fit” in response to environmental pollution.

Stating that “curiously the planet hasn’t been very clean for a long time,” the interviewer asked, “Is it possible that this is nature’s hour of reckoning with us?”
Pope Francis answered: “There’s a saying that you surely know: God always forgives, we forgive sometimes, [but] nature never forgives.”

The expression “having a fit” is a translation of the Spanish word used by Francis, “patalear,” which means to kick or stomp one’s feet, and is often used to refer to outbursts of rage or frustration, sometimes by children having a tantrum.

The Pope’s opinion of the origin of natural disasters as nature lashing out against man’s environmental sins is echoed by Leonardo Boff, a dissenting “liberation” theologian....Boff opined that the coronavirus pandemic is the revenge of “Gaia,” a personified planet earth who has become outraged over environmental offenses, and which he also calls the “Great Mother.”

Genealogy Lesson of Christ

When the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 
Galatians 4:4

"If He took not the same flesh and blood that the children of men have with its liability to sin, then where could there be any

philosophy or reason of any kind whatever in His genealogy as given in the Scriptures?

He was descended from David; He was descended from Abraham; He was descended from Adam and, by being made of a woman, He reached even back of Adam to the beginning of sin in the world. 
 
 In that genealogy there are Jehoiakim, who for his wickedness was "buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem" (Jer. 22:19); Manasseh, who caused Judah to do "worse than the heathen;" Ahaz, who "made Judah naked, and transgressed sore against the Lord;" Rehoboam, who was born of Solomon after Solomon turned from the Lord; Solomon himself, who was born of David and Bathsheba; there are also Ruth the Moabitess and Rahab; as well as Abraham, Isaac, Jesse, Asa, Jehoshaphat, Hezekiah, and Josiah: the worst equally with the best.  And the evil deeds of even the best are recorded equally with the good. And in this whole genealogy there is hardly one whose life is written upon at all of whom there is not some wrong act recorded.    

 ---Now it was at the end of such a genealogy as that that "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us." 
---It was at the end of such a genealogy as that that He was made of a woman. 
---It was in such a line of descent as that that God sent "His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh."  And such a descent, such a genealogy, meant something to Him, as

it does to every other man, under the great law that the iniquities of the fathers are visited upon the children to the third and fourth generations. It meant everything to Him in the terrible temptations in the wilderness of temptation, as well as all the way through His life in the flesh.     Thus, both by heredity and by imputation, He was laden with the sins of the world. 
And, thus laden, at this immense disadvantage He passed triumphantly over the ground where at no shadow of any disadvantage whatever, the first pair failed."

Babylon as Symbol

"The destruction of Babylon pictures to some degree the final destruction of the world, of which the prophet writes, "Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it." (Isaiah 13:9).

Destruction came upon Babylon while the king and his lords were engaged in feasting and revelry. Cyrus and his army marched up the bed of the river Euphrates...The monarch, his princes, and guardsmen, were given up to feasting, and, intoxicated with strong drink, they knew nothing of the peril of the kingdom. There was a noise at the palace gates, the doors were forced open, the troops of Cyrus rushed in, and in a short time the king and his guests were lying mangled in the heaps of the slain, and the drunken slept a perpetual sleep.

Babylon is a symbol of the world at large.
When its doom was made certain, its kings and officers seemed to

be as men insane, and their own course hastened its destiny.
When the doom of a nation is fixed, it seems that all the energy, wisdom, and discretion of its former time of prosperity, deserts its men of position, and they hasten the evil they would avert.
Outside enemies are not the greatest peril to an individual or a nation.
The overthrow of a nation results, under the providence of God, from some unwise or evil course of its own."

Creation Moment 3/28/2020 - Explosions Don't Make Things

For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. Psalm 33:9

"Generations of atheistically leaning people have grappled with the question of the origin of stuff, and have sort of agreed that stuff came from “the Big Bang,” an explosion which in their humble opinion created everything.

Atheists and their followers are stuck between a rock and a hard place. It is easy to see how God could create! We can even agree that He could have made DNA. But how could an explosion do that? People who fight wars use explosions a lot, but they never use them to create because explosions don’t make things. They use them to destroy things because that is what explosions do. ..... poor atheists! To get rid of God, they needed to substitute something else to account for the things God does. They chose perhaps the worst choice possible: an explosion! The big bang!
An explosion is not almost like God, or sort of like God. It is not even neutral or questionable. It has no mind!
Ask yourself, “How could an explosion make an elephant or even its DNA?” An explosion is the complete opposite of a Creator! Explosions not only don’t create, they blow things apart!"

What Made Babylon a Harlot?

We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed:
forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country:
for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.
Jeremiah 51:9

"Now
Q: what made Babylon the mother?
I mean what produced her first?
A: The church leaning upon the arm of another, separated from her own husband, turning to another, leaning upon the arm of another

than her rightful Lord - that is what made Babylon.
The church, pretending to be the church of Christ, joining herself to another lord, makes the adulteress, the harlot.
And thus came Babylon the great. And as she is the one that has led in all that wicked course and set the wicked example for all the rest to follow, she is described as the mother of harlots.

Then when God in the Reformation would have healed Babylon and she would not be healed, Christianity started in the world independent of her again.

But when the professed Protestant churches have followed her ways and turned away from their rightful Lord and put their trust, their hope, upon earthly governments, earthly kingdoms, and joined themselves to these, they are the daughters; then there is Babylon and the daughters, ....
So that you see

the profession of religion

without the power of God,

the profession of godliness

without the power of it."

SDA Issues- Ecumenical Grapes for Mary?

Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness. Jeremiah 12:10

"Every year since at least 2011 the Armenian Orthodox Church has been celebrating the “Blessings of Grapes/Assumption of the

Mother of God” ceremony at Adventist Health Glendale, formerly Glendale Adventist Medical Center.

This annual celebration of the Blessings of Grapes is a feast that commemorates the ascension of the Virgin Mary into heaven – a doctrine that conflicts with our belief about the non-immortality of the soul and the role of Mary being a mediator in heaven....part of the “Blessings of Grapes” ceremony at Adventist Health Glendale. Armenian Orthodox bishops and priests gathered together with hospital administrators and staff to bless the grapes and to call upon the Virgin Mary.

Ecumenism has become the new golden calf (Exodus 32:8) that all the churches of the world bow before.
The ecumenical movement that many Seventh-day Adventists are so eager to join is the same delusion that the Philistines engaged in when they placed the Ark of the Covenant next to an idol of Dagon, a false, pagan deity (1 Samuel 5:1-12).

The grapes symbolize the first fruits of the harvest and represent the Virgin Mary’s ascension into heaven.

These grapes, symbols of the deification and veneration of Mary, are then passed out to the different patients in the hospital. These ceremonies are similar to the grape offerings by priestesses during harvest in the pagan worship of Bacchus."

His Hematohidrosis to Bedew the Earth

His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
Luke 22:44
"Hematohidrosis is a rare condition in which a human being sweats blood.
Leonardo Da Vinci described a soldier who sweated blood before battle. Jesus Christ experienced hematohidrosis while praying in the garden of Gethsemane before his crucifixion ."
IndianJournalOfDermatology

"The mental pressure arising from our Lord's struggle with

temptation, so forced his frame to an unnatural excitement, that his pores sent forth great drops of blood which fell down to the ground.

This proves how tremendous must have been the weight of sin when it was able to crush the Savior so that he distilled great drops of blood!

This demonstrates the mighty power of His love. 

This sets forth the voluntariness of Christ's sufferings,

since without a lance the blood flowed freely.

But see our Savior in his agony; he is so utterly oblivious of self, that instead of his agony driving his blood to the heart to nourish himself, it drives it outward to bedew the earth.

Do we not perceive how intense must have been the wrestling through which he passed, and will we not hear its voice to us? 

Behold the great Apostle and High Priest of our profession, and sweat even to blood rather than yield to the great tempter of your souls."

Creation Moment 3/26/2020 - The Term "Science"

Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.
Job 38:3

"The definition of science is being changed in a way that will no longer permit the rather obvious conclusion that God created living things.

The term "science" once meant "knowledge discovered by experimentation, observation and objective investigation."
We were taught that science was to be observable, testable, and repeatable.

When one scientist did an experiment, others could repeat his experiment, and obtain the same results. If no one who repeated the experiment came up with the same results, those results had been "falsified," that is, shown not to be true.

This definition of science has served us very well, but for those who teach that life formed spontaneously with no Creator involved, it has become a problem.
They want to teach their philosophy as science, but the idea that a first cell came together spontaneously from chemicals without a Creator is an opinion about ancient history. It is not observable, testable, or repeatable, so it does not fall under the usual definition of science."
