Our Back Against Fukushima

As many of you are aware the ongoing nuclear disaster at Fukushima is threatening the Northern Hemisphere with a cataclysm of such great proportions that it is hard to imagine. This is being reported by many non-MSM news entities. Here are some of the many:

As you can see it appears the world is in serious trouble. The question is why, and what can be done to stop the disaster? Why is the world in such a predicament? I believe it is because we have sinned against God, which includes mistreatment of Israel. What is the solution to the problem? Repent and pray for mercy. Let me explain why I believe these things.

Last year comet Elenin came onto the world scene. I know that there was a lot of hype associated with this comet, but the fact remains that the comet had connections with Israel and the Palestinian state. I detailed these connections in the posts entitled Comet Elenin, Israel, the Palestinian State, and America and Comet Elenin “Connections”

If you have not already read them they clearly show a connection between events associated with Elenin and the Israel/Palestinian state issue—that is if you have eyes to see. Some of the connections involved earthquakes.

In a February 2011 post regarding comet Elenin entitled Comet Elenin and the Pole Shift Theory; 3/15/2011 and Beyond I wrote the following;

So if their theory is correct and the comet caused the 8.8 quake in Chile and moved the earth 3 degrees when it was at a distance of 6.047 and it caused a proportional response to the earth on 3/15/2011 when its distance is 2.099 what might we expect to see? The effect would be 2.88 (6.047/2.099) times greater. Thus if the first one caused a 3 degree shift then the March 15 alignment could cause a 3 x 2.88 = 8.6 degree shift and an earthquake 2.88 times greater would be 8.8 + log 2.88 = 9.25 on the Richter scale.

So I interpolated some data from past Elenin alignments and calculated that we could see the things listed above at the March alignment. As you are aware Japan experienced a 9.1 earthquake in the March 2011 alignment period that precipitated the current Fukushima disaster. So we have a comet associated with Israel and the Palestinian state that in its alignment period a major earthquake occurs that has done great damage in Japan and is still threatening the whole world with major destruction.

And for the record in July of 2011 I wrote this regarding comet Elenin;

I believe the major determining factor in the judgment will be Israel and the Palestinian state. If the world comes against Israel, judgment will come against the world. What if the world backed off from creating the Palestinian state; could God have mercy on us and destroy the comet? With the whisper of a word.

As you know the world did not form the Palestinian state, and the comet broke up.

Back to the current situation regarding Fukushima; Why Japan? Again there is a Israel connection which I wrote about in the post entitled The Nations Against Israel--An Evil Wind Bloweth, Here is a snippet;

So Japan makes an official statement condemning Israeli settlements and supporting the Palestinian state and they commit to aiding the Palestinians with a water project and then 29 days and 11 days later respectively their country experiences a huge earthquake and a tsunami--water disaster.

Also in that post I featured a Google Earth picture of a tsunami cloud formation that lies next to a line between the exact Japan earthquake location and the Temple in Jerusalem, which when you think about it is mind boggling—an unnatural tsunami wave cloud formation from 2006 on a line between the quake location and the Temple Mount!

How much more does the world need to see? Don’t they get it—God’s word is true—And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Gen 12:3

Unfortunately the world has not gotten it, because they are deceived by the devil and are doing his bidding, that will result in more destruction—no one ever gains long term by following the devil. Even though the world did not go against Israel last fall and create the Palestinian state, the world is now backing Israel into a corner and her very existence is being threatened by a nuclear Iran. And just by coincidence the world is being backed into a corner and is being threatened by severe nuclear contamination.

So that is why I believe the current Fukushima problem exists, because the world has sinned against God, which includes mistreatment of Israel. So what is the solution to the problem? Repent and beg for mercy. Repent, how? For the world to take care of the Iranian situation, to support Israel’s right to her land, and to stop the killing of the innocents to name a few.

Is the world listening? Does anybody care or are we just going to blindly follow the devil down the path of destruction? Leaders of the world take heed! Who am I to tell the leaders of the world what to do? Just a child of God, indwelt by God’s Spirit, who knows what God’s Word says and who is trying to prevent a disaster.

Oh, BTW, guess what else had connections to comet Elenin? The National Christmas tree, and now it is dead and was removed on of all days 5-5-2012, 111 days after Israel’s tree fell. Just more coincidences, right?

Listen; do you want to see children starving, people suffering, and massive death? Is that what you want world? Because; that is what you are bringing upon yourself. Turn to God--All who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

O Christian, pray with me that God will have mercy on the world and the looming Fukushima disaster is averted and that many would be brought to repentance. Our only hope is in God. We cannot rely on the scientists—they were the ones who put a nuclear reactor and spent fuel pool 100 feet in the air in one of the most seismically active regions of the world in the first place—what a joke. Most people with any common sense could tell you that was a bad idea. Unfortunately many times in this world profit is the bottom line. Let me repeat it; our only hope is in God.

I asked God for a message. I randomly turned to Jeremiah 16 and 17.

16: 3. For thus saith the Lord concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bare them, and concerning their fathers that begat them in this land;

4. They shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented; neither shall they be buried; but they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth: and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcases shall be meat for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.

5 For thus saith the Lord, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament nor bemoan them: for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith the Lord, even lovingkindness and mercies.

6 Both the great and the small shall die in this land: they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them:

7 Neither shall men tear themselves for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.

8 Thou shalt not also go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat and to drink.

9 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

10 And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shew this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath the Lord pronounced all this great evil against us? or what is our iniquity? or what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God?

11 Then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the Lord, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;…

17: 5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.

6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.

7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

10 I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.

12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.

13 O Lord, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the Lord, the fountain of living waters.

14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.

15 Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.

16 As for me, I have not hastened from being a pastor to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which came out of my lips was right before thee.

17 Be not a terror unto me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.

18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction….

Israel’s’ back is in a corner—they are faced with nuclear annihilation. The world’s back is in a corner—we are faced with cataclysmic nuclear contamination. See the connection? Do something about it world—take care of the Iranian problem before the Fukushima problem takes care of us.

I randomly opened my Bible today to Ezekiel 35. It just so happens to give a clear example of what happens to nations that go against Israel and her land—which God calls His.

1. Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

3 And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.

4 I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

5 Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:

6 Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.

7 Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.

8 And I will fill his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.

9 I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

10 Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the Lord was there:

11 Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged thee.

12 And thou shalt know that I am the Lord, and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.

13 Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them.

14 Thus saith the Lord God; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.

15 As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

A North Korea "Heads Up"

"A hair-raising nuclear confrontation in Korea may, towards the end of the period, threaten man's very survival." The Armageddon Script by Peter Lemesurier p.222-3.

Right now there is a lot of news flying around about North Korea pointing to a potential major conflict within the next few weeks regarding their planned missile launch (April 12-16). Here are a few links to articles regarding the situation.

North Korea Threatens "a sea of flames"

North Korea Begins Fuelling Controversial Satellite

Japan Approves Shoot-Down Order for North Korean Rocket

US and South Korean Troops Stage Beach Landing

Red Alert: Pentagon Activates Missile Defenses for North Korean Launch

Whenever I hear a news item about North Korea and missiles I always remember the above quote from the Armageddon Script which according to David Bay at Cutting Edge ministries is suppose to be a blueprint for what the evil ones are going to bring upon the world to eventually produce antichrist.

The White House and the Oaxaca and Chile Earthquakes

Update added at end of post

At the direction of the President on 3/20 the State Department announced that it was allowing certain nations to bypass the sanctions on Iran and purchase oil from them. As Debka reported; "The downscaling of sanctions caught Israel by surprise and angered Turkey, most of all as the outcome of unknown secret US-Iranian talks."

Just by "coincidence" on 3/20 Oaxaca Mexico was hit with a 7.4 earthquake. How does that relate to the President?--Google search "Obama" and "Oaxaca" and you will see.

Then 5 days later on 3/25, the President was engaging in talks with Turkish prime minister Erdogan regarding the Iran situation. Again as reported by Debka after the talks Erdogan had planned to fly straight from his long conversation with Obama to Tehran and hand Iran’s leaders a Turkish formula counter-signed by the US president for digging the nuclear dispute out of its crisis. So the USA was engaging in "back channel" talks"--to use their own words--bypassing direct involvement with Israel. Also the U.S. just unblocked aid to the Palestinians allowing U.S. money to flow to them again. (HT Garden Girl)

And again just by "coincidence" on 3/25 Chile was hit with a 7.1 earthquake. What does an earthquake in Chile have to do with this whole situation? A line from the Chile quake to the White House aligns with the National Christmas Tree.

Or in other words a line from the Chile quake to The National Christmas Tree points to the White House. By way of reminder the National Christmas Tree has associations with judgment, and Chile has the largest Palestinian population outside the Arab states.

So what do these "coincidences" infer? A lot, but I will leave it to you to figure out the message. Hopefully the decision makers will figure it out too.

Update 3/29:

I would like to point out two more "coincidences" regarding these matters that I feel I should tell you about. First, if you draw a line from the Oaxaca earthquake to the Virginia earthquake the line goes through the town that Vice President Biden grew up in--Claymont, DE.

So that makes another "White House" connection.

Note: I do not wish harm to come to anyone and I pray for our leaders and their salvation in accordance with 1 Timithoy 2;

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2. For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4. Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Collinear Points of Judgment

In recent years I have become aware that prophetically related events have occurred on “lines” on the earth, like the Japan earthquake and hurricane Katrina. I have also discovered that many events that the Lord has brought to my attention recently are on “lines.” I believe these "lines" have significant prophetic ramifications for the future. I will present the lines, the link to the original post, if it has one, and comment about them if needed. As I do, keep asking yourself, “Why do these events “line up?”

Line 1: Temple—Tsunami Sign—Japan Earthquake

This line goes from the Temple in Jerusalem past a cloud formation that looks like a tsunami wave and ends at the Japanese earthquake location that caused tsunamis and the Fukushima disaster. Japan has been supportive of Israel’s enemies. Thus the line associates judgment with supporting Israel’s enemies. Note: The tsunami sign has 4 other lines associated with it. http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2011/03/tsunami-sign.html

Line 2: Temple—Independence Hall—Hurricane Katrina

This line goes from the Temple through Independence Hall in Philadelphia and ends where Katrina hit. Katrina hit after the USA forced Israel to destroy settlements. Thus the line associates judgment with taking away Israel’s land. http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2010/05/3-lines.html

These 2 lines clearly demonstrate how judgments can happen on lines. The remaining lines that I will show you not only have some judgments associated with them but also suggest possible future judgments.
Line 3: New York Missile—Falling Tower—Phoenix—Middle of ill fated cruise ship journey. http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2010/11/next-big-event-harbingers.html

Line 4: Virginia earthquake—Colorado earthquake—Hesperia fire—California missile. http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2011/09/comet-elenin-new-madrid-fault-fire-and.html

Line 5: Mt Carmel fire—MannGulch fire—Sequoia National Park--California missile launch. http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2010/12/in-line-of-fire-of-missile.html

Line 6: Chattanooga—Colorado earthquake—Sequoia National Park
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2012/02/phoenix-code-chattanuclear.html

Line 7: Chattanooga—Sequoyah cabin—Oklahoma earthquake—California missile--Hawaii
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2012/02/phoenix-code-chattanuclear.html

Line 8: The Senator Tree—Phoenix—California missile
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2012/01/israel-and-burning-tree.html

Line 9: New Orleans—Phoenix—California missile
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2010/12/in-line-of-fire-of-missile.html

Line 10: United Nations—Washington D.C.—Puebla
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2011/12/phoenix-code.html

Line 11: Oklahoma earthquake—The Senator Tree—St. Thomas island
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2012/02/dreams-of-paradise-lost.html

Line 12: Washington D.C. "Death Line"—Phoenix
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2010/10/next-big-event-phoenix-confirmations.html

Line 13: Washington DC—Falling sequoia trees—Hawaii
http://endtimesforecaster.blogspot.com/2012/03/dreams-of-paradise-lost-hawaii.html

Why do all these events line up? I believe all these alignments are beyond chance and God is allowing them to occur for a reason and purpose—there is an important message here. I have ideas as to the meaning and ramifications of these lines and the possible future judgments they point to as detailed in some of the referenced posts. But I believe the basic message is that we, as a nation, have sinned against God and judgment is "alining" against us.
 
I also believe that the judgments will continue to come and get worse and worse. Case in point; you may have noticed that 5 of the lines; 4,5,7,8 and 9 all come near the approximate location of the California Missile event.

Consider what events and places are on these lines;

Virginia earthquake—Colorado earthquake—Hesperia fire—California missile
Mt Carmel fire—MannGulch fire—Sequoia National Park--California missile launch
Chattanooga—Sequoyah cabin—Oklahoma earthquake—California missile--Hawaii
The Senator Tree—Phoenix—California missile
New Orleans—Phoenix—California missile

Why would these 5 lines containing these aligning events and places all intersect in the same general location of an unidentified missile launch that took place the same day Netanyahu was being heckled over settlements in New Orleans? I believe that this quintuple concurrence speaks of the sureness, severity, and suddenness of a future missile attack against the United States for our sins as a nation, including our treatment of Israel.

17. For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, 18. And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city! 19. And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate. Rev 18: 17-19

There is a solution to the problem.

7. At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it; 8. If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. Jer 18:7,8

My prayer and desire is for the people of America to fall on their knees and call out to God for forgiveness and mercy, that many would be saved, and that a great revival would break out throughout our land. Let’s hope and pray that America does repent and these judgments are delayed.

Update: I read the post entitled Echoes of a Paradise Lost Part 3 by Cindy by the Sea, and near the end of the post she included a quote that I believe is very timely.

Messianic Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, from his excellent book, “The Harbinger” -

“God’s will is that none should perish. Judgment is not His desire, …. but His necessity. The good must bring evil to an end, or else it would cease to be good. And, yet his mercy is still greater than judgment. His heart always wills for redemption. and, therein, lies the hope. The hope for America …”

BTW; I reccomend reading the post.

A Christian's Tribulation

Can Christians be subject to tribulations? I am sure that we all have experienced the answer to that question, and would all answer with a resounding “Yes.”

John 16:33
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Acts 14:22
Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

For our own good God does at times allow His children to go through tribulations, but never His wrath.

1 Thessalonians 1:10
And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

The deliverance from His wrath to come will occur at the rapture, but up to that point we can experience tribulations. In regards to the end times when does God’s wrath start? The Bible clearly tells us that it starts at the sixth seal.

Rev 6:12,17
12. And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood…17. For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

So if God’s wrath starts after the sixth seal is opened, then the first 5 seals must be various tribulations and not part of God's wrath. The first 5 seals involve wars, famines, plagues, and persecutions, which Christians have lived through before. So does that mean that Christians will be subject to the tribulations of the first 5 seals? To help answer that question let’s look at a couple passages regarding the Day of the Lord.

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words. But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. (1 Thess. 4:15–5:2)

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. (2 Thess. 2:1–2)

Both of these passages are talking about the rapture and call the event the Day of the Lord or the Day of Christ. And from what I have researched most Christians will agree that the rapture happens at the Day of the Lord. Now let’s consider Acts 2:20

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:

This verse clearly establishes the fact that the moon is turned to blood before the Day of the Lord. When is the moon turned to blood? At the sixth seal.

And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev 6:12

Therefore that leaves us with only one possible conclusion—since the rapture is part of the day of the Lord, and the Day of the Lord occurs after the moon is turned to blood at the sixth seal—then the rapture must occur after the sixth seal is opened.

In summary;

The rapture occurs during the Day of the Lord.

The Day of the Lord occurs after the moon is turned to blood.

The moon is turned to blood after the sixth seal is opened.

Therefore the rapture occurs after the sixth seal is opened.

Scripture confirms this scenario in the verses following Rev 6:12;

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; 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: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev 6:15-17

What does scripture say causes men to hide? It says they are trying to hide from the face of Him that sits on the throne—Jesus—and they are scared to death. When does Jesus appear for the world to see? Jesus appears at the rapture. The scripture also says that this is when God’s wrath starts, and this is the only thing that Christians are promised that we will not be subject to—God’s wrath. Christians can be subject to tribulations, but not the wrath of God. After the sixth seal is opened is when God’s wrath starts and that is why and when we are removed at that time.

Therefore since the rapture occurs after the 6th seal is opened Christians can be subject to the tribulations of the first 5 seals.

Brothers and sisters do not let fear arise in your hearts regarding these truths. Remember the truth will set you free. Let these truths help motivate us to draw ever closer to God—to love the Lord with all our heart mind and soul. It should also motivate us to pray for our country and leaders and to pray for God’s power and guidance to prepare spiritually, mentally, and physically to meet the challenges that lie ahead. It should also motivate us to present ourselves to God to be used by Him to accomplish great things for Him in accordance with His will.

Some Christians want to "bury their heads in the sand" and ignore what is going on around them and the prospect of future tribulations and just "focus on God." It is great to focus on God, but if there is one thing that I have learned in my 30 plus years as a Christian is that you need BALANCE. Witness--yes, study the Word--yes, pray--yes, watch prophecy developments--yes, prepare for the future--yes, trust God--yes. And all must be done in proper priority; 1. Your relationship with God, 2. Responsibilities, 3. Ministry, and 4. Time for you.

So many Christians are asleep to essential end times truths and the times in which we live. Please wake up dear Christian brother and sister--lest you be caught unawares. Or would you rather "go to sleep" and wake up when the really bad times hit and then be thrown into a panic?

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 6Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. 1 Thes 5:4-6


Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

R.A. Coombes has written a short article entitled Wake UP Christian that has some very timely insights regarding the parable of the 10 virgins and Christians who are asleep to the times in which we live. Here is a snippet, I recommend reading the entire article;

Is it just me or have the Evangelical/Fundamentalist Churches in America gone to sleep concerning Bible Prophecy and current developments? Perhaps its just my local area that seems to be napping instead of being on “watch” for the Lord’s return for His Bride...


What we can conclude for a study of this parable and from the previous chapter and His commands – is that Christ intends for ALL Believers to:


Know and Understand God’s prophecies (Bible Prophecies) yet to be fulfilled. And with that knowledge and understanding we are to always be aware, watchful, alert and attentive to what is going on in the world around us, in relation to these future prophecies.


We are NOT to be ignorant or to ignore these scriptural prophecies, despite the teachings of some “popular” Evangelical leaders in the “emerging church” and “purpose-driven” church movements a.k.a. as the “mega-churches” in America.


With this understanding of the Parable of the Virgins and their deep sleep and slumber, don’t you find it amazing that, at least in American Churches, the vast majority of church pastors and congregations (including Evangelicals and Fundamentalists) are fast asleep in regards to Bible Prophecy and the news developments we are now witnessing around the world and especially in Middle East politics.
