Three Reasons For The Biggest Rejection Of All Time

Jesus said there will be people before Him on judgement day who call Him Lord.  But sadly, they will hear Him say, "I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness."  (Matthew 7:21-23). If you call yourself a Christian does that verse terrify you? Let me explain 3 reasons why Jesus would say that. But before I begin, this blog isn't to scare you. It's to make you sure you understand why these words of rejection were spoken by Jesus despite the fact these folks believed they were "Christians" (and could apply to anyone today for that matter).

According to the verses from Matthew 7:21-23, what made the people addressed by Jesus believe they were safe and their salvation secure? After all, they reminded Jesus of all the good things they had done: they prophesied IN HIS NAME. They cast out demons IN HIS NAME. They performed many miracles IN HIS NAME. How then could Jesus possibly say He never knew them when they did all that in His Name? They may have done good things in His mighty Name but they continued to purposely and habitually sin after becoming a Christian. How do we know this? The words from Matthew 7:21-23 tells us why, "you who practice lawlessness." What is practicing  lawlessness (sin)? It is a willful, persistent, choice to keep on sinning (originally from the Greek word "Anomia") meaning: living in a way that disregards God's moral standards and characterized as a continuous, deliberate pattern of sinning rather than occasional mistakes. Notice Jesus used the words "you who PRACTICE lawlessness.

Practice= to repeat. 

Lawlessness= sin.

Now refer to these two supportive scriptures. Luke 6:46 Jesus speaking again, "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and don't do what I say?" This is also a perfect example not only of disobedience, but of paying lip service while continuing to willfully commit sin. It's serving GOD with words and not heart! That's what those people in Matthew 7:21-23 had done all through their Christian walk. And others are doing the same thing today! Remember the woman caught in the act of adultery in John 8:11? What did Jesus say to her?  He said, "Go, and from now on sin no more" (English Standard Version) OR Jesus' words can be understood this way ..You are forgiven of the sin of adultery, NOW FROM HERE ON DON'T KEEP DOING IT.  A person who calls Jesus their Lord cannot expect to be accepted into the Kingdom of God through empty lip service. It requires a close relationship to Him and obedience to His Word once you are forgiven. Your journey begins there.

Being saved and following Christ is a call to transformation, not instant sinless perfection. It's a journey of change and a distaste of and turning from a deliberate  pattern of sin. Those to whom Jesus will say, "I never knew you" were and will be strangers to Him.  They are people remaining outside the family of God despite announcing and believing they are Christian because no genuine commitment on their part was ever made to change. No desire to turn and give up deliberate sin, to walk in a new way though they claimed Him as Lord of their lives. While the Christian consensus acknowledges humans will still face temptation and occasionally fall, Jesus's ultimate expectation is that we desire to sin less and thereby grow in holiness. Holiness? Who can be holy?

The bible verse from Old and New Testaments, 1 Peter 1:15-16, "be ye holy in all you do" AND Leviticus 11:44, "For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy"  is not some impossible task when you understand what He is asking. We are to forsake our sinful habits, vices, deeds. Not remain in them, but changing from our old life into the new. God isn't asking for flawless perfection on our own. Instead, "be ye holy" means being "set apart" from the sinful patterns of the world to reflect His loving character and relying on His Spirit to transform your everyday life. We simply cannot achieve holiness by trying harder not to sin. It requires a true faith, relationship, and commitment to want it -- then achieve it by the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit to change the desires of your heart from the inside out!

So here are three Reasons For The Biggest Rejection Of All Time as taught in Matthew 7:21-23..

1) They KNEW ABOUT Jesus, but never actually KNEW HIM. Pay attention. When Jesus said on that day many will say, 'Lord, Lord' and He responds, "I never knew you." It's not that they didn't know enough about Him education-wise. In the Bible to "know" signifies a relationship not information! You could have every verse and chapter memorized from the Bible, attend church every Sunday, go to every Sunday school class ever offered and still be a stranger to Him. The question has never been how much you know about God, it's whether He actually knows you!

2) They called him Lord but never let Him be in charge. The word Lord means MASTER. A lot of people want Jesus as Savior to rescue them but not as Lord to run anything. Many  say 'Lord, Lord' when they want something or even on Sundays then live Monday through Saturday like an unsaved person. A Jesus who saves you but never gets to lead you isn't Lord at all. He's just a label. Either He runs it or He was never really King of it.

3) Their faith never once changed how they lived. This is what almost nobody catches. It's not that any kind of works save you, they don't. It's that, real faith always produces fruit. The same way a  fruit tree can't help but grow fruit. Jesus said, "You'll know them (His actual children/followers/true believers) by their fruit." Simply said: by what is manifested as change not by what is said. A faith that changes your playlist but never your choices, your talk, your intentions, your heart, that's not weak faith, it's an empty profession. The proof was never a prayer you said once, it's a life surrendered that slowly and quietly started looking different.

Again, this isn't about being scared. It's about being sure. And there's a world of difference between 'knowing about' God and 'being known' by Him. If that fear ever drove you to your knees, that's the heart of someone running home. Do you know Him? Has there been a real change away from your old way of life? Has there been a distaste for where you once were replaced by a longing desire to follow and obey the Him? Congratulations, you're on the right path. Keep growing and let the Holy Spirit slowly and faithfully make changes in you as you surrender to His will.

A Closer Look At God's Principals

God doesn't decide who succeeds, HIS LAWS do. Think about this: Gravity doesn't care if you're a Christian or not, right? Gravity doesn't care if you prayed this morning. It doesn't care how much faith you have. If you jump off a building! Gravity will respond the exact same way every single time. Why? Because God governs His creation through laws. And in fact, your life is the sum of the laws you obey. The same is true in His Kingdom. Most Christians are waiting for God to randomly bless them. But God is not randomly choosing winners and losers. He established laws that produce predictable results. Paul said, "whatever a man sows, that shall he ALSO reap." Notice he didn't say whatever God feels like giving him. He said, whatever a man sows. The harvest is built into the seed. That's when stewardship produces increase. Generosity produces multiplication. Diligence produces promotion. Laziness produces lack. These are not God's moods and feelings. These are God's laws.

The world has created a version of Christianity where people think prayer can replace principles. It absolutely cannot. Prayer is powerful, but prayer was never designed to override the systems that God already established. Imagine praying everyday for muscles while refusing to exercise. God is not withholding strength, you're just violating the law that produces it. Imagine praying for a harvest and refusing to plant. God is not the problem. You're just ignoring the law of sowing and reaping! This is why Jesus spent so much time teaching people principles instead of just handing them shortcuts because principles make success repeatable. 

Miracles can change your situation once, but principles can change your life forever. That's why when I pray, I ask God "what laws have I missed? What laws, if any, am I missing? What principles do I need to obey?" When you align yourself with God's laws, you stop depending on random breakthroughs. You start living in predictable Kingdom results. God doesn't randomly decide who succeeds. He already decided. It's literally simple. The people who live by His principles experience His promises.

Aliens in 2026? Are they real?

 

Have you heard the reports that multiple Christian leaders here in the United States were briefed by individuals identified as 'government officials' and military officers, who told the pastors of certain mega churches to begin urgently preparing their congregations for an imminent alien disclosure? Yes, alien! Why would our government be concerned with religious matters? I will discuss that in this blog.

According to evangelist and podcaster Tony Merkel church leaders were urged to (and I quote) "prepare the body of Christ for what is coming because many are going to lose their faith."  Have you heard this? Also, the pastors were instructed to "put your phones on airplane mode. No recordings. No signals. No digital trail."  Somewhere in the woods of Tennessee, these government officials allegedly opened a presentation that nobody outside that clearing was supposed to see — classified images of creatures that do not come from this world. 

That seems concerning!

People are expressing their opinions about this. Some take the report seriously, others believe it's a hoax or a distraction for whatever reason. 

Whether real or rumor I'm going to compare what's been reported, referencing scripture alongside it, to actually expose WHAT officials said they've seen. You'll be able to easily understand what they've disclosed because it matches end-time prophecy written in scripture thousands of years ago.  Officials are using the word "aliens" to describe these images but they are not "aliens" as one might think when hearing the word aliens. We are dealing with the demonic! I want every faith-believing Christian to know you have nothing to fear by this or anything added to their report!  In fact, you should be rejoicing because what I will expose will be signs our Lord draws nigh!

The times we are living in are wild. Things are shifting and changing before our very eyes. However, none of what I say should be surprising to those who have read and understood their Bibles. 

What will be so sad is when many believers will question, doubt, and then abandoned their faith in Christianity wondering if Christianity is even true anymore! But, this isn't surprising as this was also predicted thousands of years ago as "the falling away" which happens first before Jesus returns. The apostasy. 1 Thessalonians 2:3. Paul warned believers that The Day Of The Lord would not happen "unless the falling away comes first." I believe we are nearing that very soon with more revelations about so-called aliens.

This is extremely ironic to me for a few reasons. First, let me encourage those of faith to recall the following facts and to remain steadfast in the face of the coming deception described as a "strong delusion" 2 Thessalonians 2:11. LET'S BE CLEAR .. a delusion is an internal state of mind. According to WEBSTERS DICTIONARY it represents a profound, GOD-SENT judicial consequence where, because someone continually rejected the truth, they become so hardened that they will fully embrace THE LIE as absolute truth. Deception is the outward LIE, while a strong delusion is the inward resulting inability to see that it is a lie. 2 Thessalonians 2:11 is the absolute, unshakable conviction that a lie is the truth.  The lie is going to be related to the so-called "alien" race.

The Bible cannot be more clear: we are living in the end times- not THE END, but the end-times (plural). Certain things (times/events) will take place before the actual end of the world. We are entering the times preceding that. Don't believe it? The Bible has gotten 1800 predictions correct with a 100% accuracy rate so far. An unbeatable statistic.

The Biblical end-times we're in right now will produce:

a) a "NEW WORLD ORDER" (openly discussed today and assembling now)

b) the Euphrates River is going to dry up (it's already started) some parts of the riverbed have completely dried up. You can look it up online.

c) a false-prophet will breathe life into an "image" so that "the image" can speak! (AI capability robots?)

d) Gaza will be forsaken (it's heavily devastated at this point) and people are turning their backs on global sympathy for the Palestinians.

e) increasing wars and rumors of wars will happen (happening now and reported everyday in the media).

f) war will break out in Persia (modern-day Iran) and it began just this February 28, 2026 initiated by the US and Israel.

g) increase in environmental disturbances, erratic weather: tornados, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, drough, fires, anything describing catastrophic events affecting the earth, oceans, and atmosphere.

h) a global financial digital system will be built uniting the world under 1 system (slowly being digitally implemented now) - eventually no dollar will exist, no yen, no ruble, no euro, no pound, no yuan, no aud, no cad, no rupee, etc. all with intentions to unite all humanity into a single, centralized , totalitarian global governance --1 religion, 1 government, 1 economic system.

There are another 20- to 50 signs that could be listed here including Israel being formed as a nation within the same generation. The Bible also tells us there will be a great falling away (2Thessalonians 2:3)..which happens before the return of Christ. What is THE GREAT falling away? It's many CHRISTIANS who will lose and abandon their  faith because of the deceptive LIE regarding so-called aliens and the story they bring connected to them. This story is revealed in Genesis 6:1-4 and understandable "if"  you have eyes to see it. 

We are told in the scriptures that these "aliens" (identified and labeled as such by man) are not from Mars nor are they Interplanetary beings coming from outside our planet unless of course you classify demons with the secondary label "alien" since alien only means something foreign and outside our native environment. Christians should already know the so-called "aliens" are actually demons -THE FALLEN ANGELS (those cast to earth recorded in Revelation 12: 4-9) and they have come to announce the biggest, most deceptive story in human history. All in an attempt to make humanity believe THEY created us, not God, and that there is no Jesus of the Bible! THIS WAS THE REASON OUR GOVERNMENT CALLED PASTORS TOGETHER TO PREPARE THEM SO THEY CAN ALERT THEIR CONGREGATIONS (a lie) THAT WE AREN'T WHO WE THINK WE ARE AND OUR HISTORY, OUR GOD, AND THE BEGINNINGS AND  ORIGINS OF MAN ARE NOT THE TRUTH AS STATED IN THE BIBLE.

I can only urge you NOT TO BELIEVE THIS LIE! It's the great deception and is mentioned in the Book of Revelation. Christians, DON'T FALL AWAY from the grounding truth you were given by inspired apostles and disciples of Christ .. Galatians 1:8-9 " But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed." Notice it included the word angel in that verse?? .. (AS IN FALLEN ANGELS/DEMONS?). Well, they are coming with another gospel. You've been warned.

Demons are very real. Even Daniel chapter 4 tells that there are WATCHERS that watch over humanity. Genesis chapter 6 tell us the rebellious fallen angels were cast down and then pro-created with human women defiling God's DNA He specifically designed for mankind. Their offspring were hybrids called Nephilim- they were GIANTS "there were Giants in those days" (recorded in Genesis 6:4). This is one means by which they will trick humanity into believing the LIE/DECEPTION/DELUSION. When they bred with human woman, they left THEIR DNA integrated into ours. They will use that to convince many that they created us, that they are our GOD, and not the God of the Bible.

Jesus cast out demons on 12 separate instances according to the biblical record. I would argue that any Christian who doesn't believe that there are supernatural forces acting on us.. angels, demons, entities, spirits, specters, whatever you want to call them, may not actually be a true Christian because the Bible cannot be more clear that demons (IE: fallen angels) are real and absolutely exist and intervene in human affairs.

I would highly suggest people get into the Word of God because in truth, we are  living in the "end-times" not THE END, and it comes with specific warnings for specific reasons . Gird up your loans. A GREAT deception is coming that, "if it were possible could deceive the very elect" (refer to MATTHEW 24:24) because with this deception and LIE(s) will come an illusion and tricks attempting to convince you about who you are and who created you coming with  signs and wonders!

FORGIVNESS -The Breakdown

 

The pain was deep and the hurt profound. The anger, fear, and low self-esteem overwhelmed me for decades. That was me. Keeping "the secret" as a child because my abuser convinced me he would both be in trouble and go to jail, constantly promoting the idea it would be my fault if I exposed him.

I am a survivor  of long-term sexual abuse.

In my adult years I confided in two of my closest friends who concluded, "You are right to feel so angry. What happened to you was awful." My friends were always emotionally supportive, but no one, not even myself had a cure or solution to a myriad of psychological baggage that kept me chained in physical and mental prison. It took a long time to discover abusers and offenders aren't affected by what you feel. They walk on. It's you, innocent you, that's left damaged.

As difficult as it may seem to hear and even harder to understand if you will release them, you will be set free! This is what I want to explore today. Let me explain. Forgiveness is truly a Christian virtue. It is not a corny concept. It works! Consider these words from the lips of our Lord: “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven” (Luke 6:37). In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus said it very plainly: “For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins” (Matthew 6:14-15). There is another way to say it, and it comes from the “Love Chapter" - First book of Corinthians, chapter 13:5. While describing the greatest virtue, Paul declared that “love keeps no record of wrongs." That little phrase deserves a closer examination because of the seeming difficulty in forgiving some of the most horrific things done to people.

“Love … doesn’t keep score of the sins of others.” Love doesn’t keep score because love has a bad memory. It finds a way to forget the sins of others. Our example: When Jesus hung on the cross, condemned to death by evil men who plotted to murder Him, who produced lying witnesses to convict Him, as He surveyed the howling mob assembled to cheer His suffering, Jesus the Son of God, the One who knew no sin, the only truly innocent man who ever walked this sin-cursed planet, in His dying moments uttered words that still ring across the centuries: “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing” (Luke 23:34). Those 11 tortured words sweep away all our shabby excuses. They reveal the barrenness of our heart; they rip the cover off our unrighteous anger and show it for what it is. Many of us say, “If only the people who hurt me would show some remorse, some sorrow, then maybe I would forgive them.” But since that rarely happens, we use that as an excuse to continue in our bitterness, our anger, and our desire to get even. IT IS THIS BITTERNESS AND ANGER WITHIN US WE MUST CONFRONT!

Consider Jesus on the cross. No one seemed very sorry. Even as He said those words, the crowd laughed, mocked, cheered, jeered. Those who passed by hurled insults at Him. They taunted Him. “If you are the King of Israel, come down from the cross and save yourself.” Let me be clear on this point. When Jesus died, the people who put Him to death were quite pleased with themselves. Pilate washed his hands of the whole sordid affair. The Jewish leaders hated Him with a fierce, irrational hatred. They were happy to see Him suffer and die. Evil was in the air that day. The forces of darkness had done their work and the Son of God would soon be in the tomb. No one said, “I was wrong. This is a mistake. We were such fools.” And yet He said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Why???

 

Here's why:

Forgiveness is difficult in part because we do not understand it properly. It does not mean approving of what someone else did. It does not mean pretending that evil never took place. It does not mean making excuses for other people’s bad behavior. It does not mean justifying evil so that sin somehow becomes less sinful. It does not mean overlooking abuse. It does not mean denying that others tried to hurt you repeatedly. It does not mean letting others walk all over you. It does not mean refusing to press charges when a crime has been committed. It does not mean forgetting the wrong that was done. It does not mean pretending that you were never hurt. It does not mean that you must restore the relationship to what it was before. It does not mean that you must become best friends again. It does not mean there must be a total reconciliation as if nothing ever happened. It does not mean that you must tell the person that you have forgiven them. It does not mean that all negative consequences of sin are canceled. NO.

Forgiveness in its essence is a decision made on the inside to refuse to live in the past. And for good reason!  It’s a conscious choice to release others from their sins against you so that you can be set free. Did you get that? SO YOU can be set free! It doesn’t deny the pain or change the past, but it does break the cycle of bitterness that binds you to the wounds of yesterday.

 Forgiveness allows you to let go and move on. You can forgive without a restoration of the relationship. You can forgive when the other person has done nothing to earn forgiveness because forgiveness is like salvation—it is a gift that is freely given, it cannot be earned. You can forgive and the other person may never even know about it. You can forgive without saying, “I forgive you” because forgiveness is a matter of the heart. The whole heart of this matter lies in the simple words Jesus spoke in Matthew 6:14-15, which is forgive or you will not be forgiven.

   No wonder we are so tormented. No wonder we are so angry and bitter. No wonder we have problems. No wonder our friendships don’t last. No wonder we can’t get along. No wonder we have difficulty with relationships and trusting/loving people our partners. We have never learned the secret of unlimited forgiveness. The key regarding forgiveness is not releasing your abuser/tormentor/offender so they feel okay about what they've done, it's releasing you! Freeing you! Because unforgiveness keeps you chained and imprisoned to hatred, revenge, resentment, anger, confusion, bitterness, hurt, negative-thought patterns, and pain. Understand, the person who hurt you goes on with their life. They feel nothing. They walk away. By not forgiving them for what they did hurts yourself with all consuming desires for retaliation and justice! Refusing to forgive traps your own heart and mind from any ability to move on, which can literally last a lifetime impacting your physical and mental well-being! Who wants to be shackled to that? Are you still hurting from an offender? You're chained to the past reminding yourself over and over, year after year of what was done to you.

Bottom line, forgiveness aligns us spiritually. It's actually  a gift. YES! It is a power that we wield to free ourselves. It liberates us from deep grief, of bearing grudges, a self-protection mechanism if you will, even releasing playing the victim game over and over destroying self-esteem. I've had years of employment in both the medical and mental health field and can tell you unforgiveness triggers a chronic stress response and that prolonged state alone takes a severe physical toll linked to several well-documented health and mental conditions. So the big question is HOW DO YOU FORGIVE? Where do you start?

Always keep at the forefront of your mind FORGIVENESS is an inside job. It's mainly about YOU not them. Personally, I began with something outside myself. God. The Creator of the Universe told me in His wise council to forgive my abuser. So I simply started with acknowledging I would forgive, I would do it for my own health asking God's help during the process and to assist in helping me not look back. I then made a promise to be good to myself and heal, by choice, my resentment, anger, and hurt. I also decided to remember that scripture tells us ALL have fallen short. ALL have sinned (including me) including my abuser, so I decided to pray for my abuser, that the Lord would forgive them as I vowed to do myself. I cried, I was scared, but I surrendered myself to obey God's wise council. This was the best thing I had ever done!  By the next day I felt a heavy weight had lifted off me. The best way to describe it is I felt unburdened.. as if a big boulder was removed from my path and I could finally walk forward. Following by faith the example of Jesus and His instructional words, has been the best therapeutic council I had ever gotten and it was all free of charge!

In conclusion: Forgiveness is not only an act of spiritual obedience to God—it is also one of His greatest gifts for our own healing. When we refuse to forgive, we often continue carrying the weight of the offense long after the event itself has passed. Bitterness, resentment, and anger can quietly consume our peace, distort our perspective, and keep old wounds alive. Forgiveness does not excuse wrongdoing, deny justice, or erase consequences; rather, it releases our right to carry the burden of vengeance and entrusts it to God. In doing so, we free our hearts from a prison that was harming us more than the offender. Spiritually, forgiveness reflects the mercy we ourselves have received from Christ. Emotionally, it opens the door to peace, healing, and freedom. In God's wisdom, the command to forgive is not merely for His glory—it is also for our restoration. When we forgive, we obey God, honor Christ, and begin healing from the inside out.

God Has Been Talking To You But You Aren't Listening

 For years I prayed, "God speak to me. Give me a sign." And I got nothing. Turns out He really was speaking but I had 5 things blocking the signal nobody told me about nor did I ever hear a pastor teach this.

So, here are 5 things I quit that finally let me hear God's voice.

1. I quit checking my cellphone the second I woke up. The first 10 minutes of my day used to be going through my emails, my notifications, the news, messages, txt's. By the time I even thought about God my brain was already on fire with everyone else's voice. And here is what I realized. Whoever gets the first 10 minutes of your day gets your ear for the next 23 hours. PSALM 5:3 "In the morning will I direct my prayer to you." The day I started giving God the first words I heard, was the day His Word was clear to me. I started hearing Him for the remainder of the day.

2. I quit assuming His voice would sound dramatic.. a thunderclap, a burning bush, a "thus saith the Lord" moment. So when nothing dramatic happened I assumed He wasn't speaking. But, in 1KINGS 19 it says God wasn't in the wind, the earthquake, or the fire. He was in "the still small voice" (a whisper). The reason you can't hear Him isn't because He isn't talking, it's because you're listening for fireworks when He speaks in whispers. So lower your expectation of how He will speak and watch how much He's been saying.

3. I stopped consulting everyone before consulting God. Big decision-group chat, career question-Linkedin, relationship advice-my friends/coworkers/Google. All before God. And by the time I finally got around to praying, I'd been influenced by 17 different opinions! JAMES 1:5 "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that gives to all men liberally and upbraids not, and it shall be given him." ASK OF GOD FIRST NOT LAST. The reason you can't hear His voice on the big things is because you drown it out with everyone else's before He gets a turn to speak.

4. Stop dismissing te "quiet nudges".. that random thought to text someone you haven't talked to in months. That uncomfortable hesitance right before signing something. That sudden urge to pray for a specific person. I used to think that was just me but here is what I finally realized. Most the time God speaks?.. He sounds like a gentle thought, a "gut feeling," an internal alarm, NOT a thunderclap- a soft whisper. And the day I stopped writing those signals off as just my own mind and started saying, "Lord is that You?" Was the day I understood He had been talking to me my entire life. I just giving Him my own name.

5. Quit being intimidated or afraid of silence. The moment things got quiet I reached for my phone ,to watch a podcast, put in my air-pods, turn on the TV, MAKE SOME NOISE. But silence is the room God meets you in. And the reason you can't hear Him in 5 minutes of stillness is because you haven't given Him 5 minutes of stillness. STARTWITH 60 SECONDS! Sit in your car, when you're jogging alone, mowing the lawn with time to think and pray secretly, etc. Don't pick up your phone the moment you wake up. Just practice silence in your own way and space and watch the volume of His voice come up.

These 5 changes didn't happen overnight but the moment I removed the noise it was obvious God WAS speaking to me for a long time. God never went silent I was just never quiet enough to hear Him.

AI and the Bible. A Deep Dive. Ready?

 You can open any Bible and read that an angel told Daniel (Daniel 12:4) regarding "the time of the end"  that "knowledge shall be increased." And this would be one of the signs to look for.

What could the verse "knowledge shall be increased" mean and why would God have made sure it was written down to inform whoever was alive at the "time of the end"  could see it?? Let me throw something out at you that I believe corresponds exactly to the very timeline we're living in right now in 2026 that corresponds to the time of the end or that a specific moment has arrived (NOT THE END OF THE WORLD AS IN TOTAL DESTRUCTION) . I want to wake people up.

You can read in scripture, knowing you're at the "time of the end" because there is a technology knowledge explosion CALLED AI. People think this observation is incorrect. In fact, some call me crazy, a conspiracy theorist, that the idea is misleading people, scaring people, or that this is misinterpreting scripture. But what I'm about to write here is in the Bible. IT IS. Keep reading.

It is written in the Book of Revelation that it will be a robot infused with AI that gives the command for everyone to receive the mark of the beast. I know, your eyebrows just raised in doubt or skepticism, right? Go read it. It's there. Really. You must open your spiritual eyes to understand. Read this slowly. John, the revelator, said he saw in a vision (his vision included seeing into the future). Refer to Revelation 1:19. John was given instructions to write 3 things: "Write , therefore, what you have seen, what is now, and what will take place later (future). Also, what Daniel saw directly connects to and even unlocks the visions found in the book of Revelation that John wrote. Both the old and New Testament testify of the same things. In Daniel's final chapter in the Old Testament, an angel gives him a panoramic vision of the end times also. Not only that, but Daniel was to also seal the words he was given UNTIL THE TIME OF THE END and warned that during that time of the end many would go "to and fro" to increase in knowledge. Hmm.

I believe the Hebrew phrase "run to and fro" means people would have an unprecedented ability research books, libraries, history, etc. to finally understand previously locked mysteries. I believe that's happening now. People are waking up to information and knowledge as never before through human technology, innovation, creation of the Universe, creation of the Internet, rapid travel ("go here and there") perhaps all the knowledge of rockets and space technology to what I'm leading to today, Artificial Intelligence. AI!

So John wrote what he saw. 

You must realize and take into consideration this fact.. that language and knowledge back when John was given a vision was totally different, even primitive compared to today. Revelation continues: that in the vision John was given, "they" (whoever he was referring to) created a "statue" -- His words. The word robot could not have been used thousands of years ago, it did not exist, neither did electricity. But the word statue did! So John doesn't know what he is seeing, what he's looking at. He just knows in his knowledge at the time it was a statue. THEN, John announces they had the ability to give the statue, life. Or understood in modern language, life was given to an inanimate object. A consciousness like intelligence is given to machines (AI robots). That's called electricity! Plug in a robot today, lights blink, it moves, it's alive (so to speak) and it can talk, think. interact. 

John in his limited knowledge kept explaining, the thing came alive because there was power given it to breathe,  it started speaking (Revelation 13:15) it gave a command that every person that does not receive a mark in their right hand or forehead must die. And today? Today AI robots have "life" and they "speak."

It all fits, does it not? Our technology now in 2026 and the infrastructure of such, along with the AI robots can be/will be used to execute global control, deception, and enforced worship of the beast as described in the book of Revelation. Couldn't then, Revelation 13:15  prove the False Prophet is referring to the same.. giving "breath" to a man-made image, allowing it to speak? Because a statue coming to life and speaking to the entire world was impossible at the time of John's vision. But not so today. AI is doing that now-- speaking, doing, performing, solving, giving answers, whether an actual robot will be used to fulfill Revelation or a centralized AI-driven supercomputer system where all these new data centers are being constructed will connect and allow a mouthpiece for a global dictator. The point is, knowledge has increased to a level of end-time prophecy.

Jesus warned us too-- we could know we are at the time of the end because things will be like they were in Noah's day (Matthew 24:37, Luke 17:26). In what way? Scripture testifies the whole world was wicked in Noah's day saying mans thoughts were evil continually. Sounds like today in this regard: especially with the rise in sexual perversion, homosexuality, transsexuality, sex-trafficking, on and on. Human thought patterns have become hyper-sexualized, crossing natural, moral and divine boundaries established in creation. We have been consumed by unchecked lust, indulgence, promiscuity, and depravity with apathy and indifference toward God. Just as in Noah's day the people were described as eating, drinking, marrying and given in marriage. And though none of these things appear condemnable, they were going about day to day as usual, ignoring Noah's warning of a coming flood. They shrugged off all his warnings until the floodwaters arrived and "took them all away" (Matthew 24:39) Jesus compares the suddenness of His second coming to the days of Noah. THIS IS WHAT I MEANT -it all corresponds exactly to the very timeline we're living in right now in 2026. Specifically. to the time of the end or that a specific moment has arrived. Specific moment is Christ's return. All the signs point to it.

Today the modern world largely scoffs at biblical warnings (maybe some of you reading are doing that now) so you choose not to hear or heed the warning, to wake up, to see the storm coming, or how AI is pointing to how close we are to Christ's return, who will gather up His believing followers before destruction comes. Genesis tells us that the earth was also "filled with violence" in those days before the flood. Sounds like today, what is good is said to be evil and what is evil is said to be good. The primary parallel is not just that the world is bad, but that the world doesn't care that it is drifting away from God!

It should be crystal clear, even without any biblical knowledge whatsoever, that we are more corrupt, are drifting farther and farther from morality, that knowledge has and is increasing exponentially, that AI is here .. and it's thinking, speaking, and making decisions. What did John see in the vision God gave him? What was sealed up until the time of the end? What could John have understood as a "talking statue" or a statue that was given life (made to come alive)? The Bible interprets the Bible. You just have to have eyes to see.

A Question To Be Answered

 

The question was posed, "If Satan fell from heaven and 1/3 of the angels with him, why didn't God just lock him up right then? Why is He waiting? Why does Satan get dominion over this world??"

Another question could easily be asked, "Why doesn't God lock us all up, right now?" In fact, think about this .. answer this: IF GOD WERE TO STOP EVIL AT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT, WOULD YOU STILL BE ALIVE AT 12:01? Hum? No. I wouldn't be. None of us would be.

God 'allows' evil knowing He can redeem it.

If God didn't allow us free will which gives us the ability to do evil but also the ability to love, if God doesn't allow FREE WILL then we don't have a moral universe. And God cannot redeem anything that's gone wrong. He didn't want to create robots. That's a completely different kind of being than a free will creature who can choose to love or disobey. So God gives us the ability to love but also to disobey and He knows He can redeem it! He knows He can buy it back! He knows He can rescue the situation for people that want to be rescued. For those that don't want to be rescued, they don't have to be rescued. 

God  will separate Himself from those who reject His offer to be saved and that's what hell is .. it's separation from God. So God gives us te ability to do what we want to do, and He also comes into this Universe which He did 2000 years ago to provide the sacrifice so we can be reconciled to Him. If He's infinitely just AND HE IS, He has to punish sin and He doesn't want to punish us, so what did He do? He punished HIMSELF in our place.

Think about it this way .. everyone believes in justice. The only thing you're going to get in the afterlife is either justice or grace. What do you want? I DON'T WANT JUSTICE, do you want justice? No, you want  grace. I want grace. It's why He came in this world. So, why doesn't He stop Satan? Why doesn't He stop all of us?? He could! But, He's given us an opportunity to make a choice. Those who trust Jesus, it goes on Jesus. Those who don't, it goes on them. Either you're going to pay or Jesus is going to pay. WHO do you want to pay?

Let's talk about hell

 I don't know of a more controversial topic that keeps people skeptical, uncomfortable, or downright dismissive regarding the subject of hell.

Most people hear the word hell and they're not even thinking about what the Bible actually says. They are thinking about what the movies have said or what the TV shows have said or portrayed hell as. So, before you raise a skeptics eyebrow, hear me out.

Maybe we should first understand what it  actually is! One of the biggest misconceptions about hell is that God sends otherwise "good people" there for simply making a few mistakes. But the Bible teaches ALL HAVE SINNED. All. Not one of us is guiltless because each and everyone from every race, color, creed, religion, country, continent has rebelled against God. Me included. We all stand GUILTY before a HOLY God. And this is where people get frustrated because they think, 'Well I'm not that bad.' But they never ask the question: Compared to who? Compared to a serial killer? Compared to an everyday criminal? Compared to your neighbor? Because the standard isn't other people. The standard is God's holiness and every single one of us fall short (Romans 3:23).

Most people do not consider God is not sending people away that desperately want Him. The reality is that many people spend their entire lives saying, 'I don't want GOD. I don't want His authority. I don't want His commandments. I don't want His rule over my life' and then, somehow they expect eternity with Him.

Hell is this: Ultimately separation from God. It is the natural destination of a life that continually rejects Him. This is why the Gospel is such good news. Christianity IS NOT BE GOOD ENOUGH (because no one can ever be that good). The message of Christianity is Christ took the punishment that we deserve. He lived a life we couldn't live. And yet He willingly died, although innocent, the death that each of us deserve. And He rose again, listen .. so that ANYONE who places their faith in Him (no matter the depth or ugliness of your sin) can be reconciled to God! 

The existence of hell should not make Christians feel superior. It should make us feel grateful because every single last one of us deserves punishment. The difference isn't that Christians are better, the difference is, Christians have received mercy. So, before becoming angry about hell, make sure that you're angry at the real thing and not the version created by Hollywood, or created by Internet memes, or by people who have never even opened a Bible to challenge what they've been told by family, by friends, at church, etc. The same JESUS who spoke about love spoke about hell. And He did so because He wanted people to understand what was at stake.

This is why biblical clarity matters, because people can't make informed decisions about Christianity if they're rejecting a version of it that doesn't even exist!

Open a Bible. Ask God to open up His Word to you so you are able to understand. Heaven is real. Hell is real.

"Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."

 What does this verse from Romans 8:1 actually mean? Is it saying anyone who says they know Jesus, believes Jesus existed, confesses out load He was real, a good man, or perhaps even a great prophet and healer.. are therefore acquitted by God from condemnation because of their belief? Not exactly. The Bible tells us even demons know WHO Jesus is and yet they are still condemned (James 2:19) but why, if demons know the truth? And trust me, they not only know Him, they confess who he is! AND STILL, their condemnation is set. See how this is true:

Matthew 8:28-29 "What have we to do with thee, Jesus, Son of God?"  Matthew 8:28-29

Mark 1:23-26 "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth?"

Luke 4:33 "I know who You are-the Holy One of God."

Simply "knowing" Jesus, knowing about Jesus, saying you do, or even acknowledging Him as the demons did isn't enough. There is a huge difference in saying you believe in Jesus as opposed to actually following Jesus. Anyone can say they believe in Jesus and never know Him.

Demons know exactly who Jesus is but they don't follow His teachings. There are many who embrace the same belief - they know Jesus, even calling Him Lord but everything stops there. There is no relationship. No intimacy. No obedience. No changes seen in their behavior. In reality, they really don't believe IN Him. If they did, they would believe in His Words and do it. They call Him their Lord, but they don't actually follow Him. Jesus even poses this question, "Why do you call Me Lord, Lord, when you won't do the things that I ask?" (Luke 6:46) Words are cheap and the old cliche, "actions speak louder than words" goes without saying. People who do not obey are not His. Sound harsh? 1 John 2:4 "Whoever says 'I know Him' but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him."

The defining message of the New Testament is that Jesus took the punishment for humanities sins on the cross. Therefore, believing followers are rescued from THE CONDEMNATION OF SIN, free from sin and death (Romans 8:2) WHO WALK NOT AFTER THE FLESH BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT.

In simple terms, condemnation means being found guilty and sentenced for your sin. Paul is saying from the verse above that for those who truly belong to Christ, God is no longer holding their sins against them as a judge pronouncing a final sentence. Jesus has already paid the penalty for sin through His death and resurrection. This does not mean Christians never sin, make mistakes, or need correction. The Bible teaches that God still disciplines and corrects His children. The difference is that correction comes from a loving Father, while condemnation comes from a judge passing sentence. A believer may feel conviction when they sin—the Holy Spirit showing them what needs to change—but they do not live under the fear of eternal judgment. The word "therefore" is important. In the previous chapters of Romans, Paul describes humanity's struggle with sin and even his own frustration: "The good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do." After describing that battle, he points to Jesus as the solution. Then he declares: "Therefore"—because of what Christ has done—there is now no condemnation for those in Him.

One way to think about it is this: Condemnation says: "You are guilty, hopeless, and rejected. "Conviction says: "You did wrong, but come back to God and be restored." For someone who is in Christ, following His path, God sees them through the righteousness of Jesus (2 Corinthians 5: 21). Their standing before God is based on what Christ accomplished, not on their own perfection. A beautiful companion verse is John: "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." The heart of Romans 8:1 is this: If you belong to Jesus, your failures do not have the final word. God's grace does. You may stumble, but you are not condemned. You may be corrected, but you are not rejected. Now, let's look at those who confess Jesus is Jesus with their mouth, perhaps they have answered an altar call confessing to others they were saved (as opposed to actually following Jesus) and recklessly and in ignorance continue any lifestyle they wish rom then on out?

Believing vs Following:

Can someone knowingly continue in sin because they think salvation guarantees immunity from consequences? Paul addressed that very idea in Romans: "Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid." Paul's answer is emphatic. Grace is not permission to sin! Rather, grace is the power and motivation to leave sin behind. A useful distinction is this: a true believer may struggle with sin and a true believer will not be comfortable in sin. Ever! King David fell into serious sin, but he was miserable until he repented. Peter denied Christ, but he wept bitterly and returned. In both cases, there was conviction and repentance. The New Testament repeatedly warns against those who turn God's grace into a license for sinful living. Jude speaks of people who "turn the grace of our God into lasciviousness" (using grace as an excuse for sin). Believing requires following. "Take up your cross and follow me" Jesus said (Matthew 6:24, Mark 8:34, Luke 9:23). Jesus actually states that anyone who does not take up their cross is not worthy of Him. Most Christians would agree on this point: No biblical doctrine of salvation gives a person permission to live in deliberate, ongoing, unrepentant sin. If someone says, "I can sin all I want because I'm saved," they are thinking in a way that the apostles repeatedly condemned. This is often the mindset "once saved always saved." This is a grave error.   These two things are truths held by the followers of Jesus: salvation is God's gift and cannot be earned by our works. And most importantly I am stressing that genuine faith produces a changed life, repentance, and perseverance. Christ did not die to give us freedom to sin; He died to give us freedom from sin. In other words, genuine faith of true FOLLOWER'S is expected to produce repentance, obedience, and spiritual fruit—not perfection, but evidence that Christ is truly Lord of a person's life.

A person can believe, or say they do, but without following Jesus is the same thing the Bible describes as "faith without works is dead" (James 2:26). There's more to explain this, "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead." A person can say they believe to their hearts content but if there are no works (works here does not mean labor or anything you yourself contribute like being good, when you tithe, going to church, giving to charities). WORKS are the fruits that manifest themselves proving you follow Jesus. Simply, works will follow the true believer proving real change. True saving faith is dynamic and naturally produces fruit and love for others. Even good deeds mentioned above do not earn salvation. The evidence of a genuine faith shows up as CHANGE. Here are some examples of that change:

1. Sin is no longer pleasurable. In fact it will seem disgusting to you now.

2. You will have a true desire to obey and follow Christ's teaching.

3. You develop a prayer life to stay in contact with God.

4. You reject the way you used to conduct and live your sinful life and you turn from it.

5. You begin to understand true forgiveness and wish no harm to those who have injured you in the past.

6. You'll be drawn by a desire to read and understand God's Word and love it.

Eventually these things manifest as "fruit." You will produce fruits of the Spirit:  love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and the big one-self-control. In other words, you become like Jesus' character.

God's grace is freely given, and genuine faith responds by producing fruit. A verse that comes to mind is from Psalm 119:105: "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." It doesn't illuminate the entire journey at once, but it gives enough light for the next step.  Genuine faith is expected to produce repentance, obedience, and spiritual fruit—not perfection, but evidence that Christ is truly Lord of a person's life. Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

A Deep Deep Dive. Not For The Faint Of Heart

 I've often pondered how the fallen angels could have procreated with human women (Genesis 6:1-4), creating the Nephilim giants.

If the angels of God in heaven are spiritual beings, holy, pure, with different assignments than man and certainly different than mankind altogether, then  how, without "appendages" like the human male anatomy were they able to procreate? Has that ever crossed your mind? I'm going to dive deep. So either sign out now or bear with me.

The only way the fallen angels had the ability to literally "mate" with human women was that they shape-shifted into "male" for the sole purpose and ability TO CREATE --which they were never given that gift as angels of God. They acted out the carnal KNOWLEDGE OF CREATION after they rebelled, sinned, and fell from their spiritual state requiring an act of sex. It was "the forbidden knowledge" that was never meant to be known (from the tree of knowledge of good and evil). They wanted to experience "carnal" pleasure after losing their spiritual standing with God. Hear me. They wanted to be "like god" .. with the ability to "create"  because again, they were not given that gift. Only humans were granted the ability to "be fruitful and multiply" (Genesis 1:28).. but even this was a holy assignment when man was first created. NOT A PHYSICAL ONE. How so?

The Bible says we were "created in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:27) does it not? God created the heavens, the earth, the universe, thing in it, above it, and under it  and the sea therein. All the stars, moon, sun, including every creature that creeps on the earth --->and all created by what?? HIS SPOKEN WORD: "Let there be". 

We, as humans, in the beginning, were supposed to keep that same holy assignment .. in His image, in His Name, as He is! Like our Father, we had the gift to speak His Word to create whatever we wanted .. even children to fill and multiply the earth through SPOKEN WORD! We were holy, blameless, one with the Father, and blessed. "GOD SAW THAT IT WAS GOOD" His perfect creation was complete. This should not shock you. Why? There was no intercourse in the garden of Eden. Adam and Eve did not physically "procreate" UNTIL AFTER THEIR FALL and banishment from paradise. ONLY FALLEN FLESH CREATES PHYSICALLY, NOT THE SPIRITUAL MAN MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD at the beginning. Even so, same thing, the fallen angels could not "procreate" either until after they sinned and fell. Keep this in mind because the grave sin which drove Adam and Eve from the garden is the same "sin" Satan and the angels committed. But, It goes beyond "carnal knowledge." Stay with me.

The Bible says that angels can appear (change) into the form of ordinary men. So much so,  that people have entertained angels in this life without even knowing it (Hebrews 13:2). The fallen angels still had the power to appear (change) as men (it's called shape-shifting), but especially so after their fall from grace took on carnality/ human nature, and as a result, forfeited their spiritual standing. In texts like 1 Enoch, the “Watchers” (fallen angels) descend to earth and took on human form to interact physically with humans. They were essentially experimenting with a realm they were never meant to touch—the human, the carnal, the material.

This is a form of rebellion, not just disobedience: they waned to experience life on their own terms, outside the divine boundaries to which they were created. This was the grave sin of rebellion acted out through sex. So let's consider the  “Forbidden Knowledge” Angle. The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil—this is profound. 

Just as Adam and Eve sought knowledge through the tree they were not to know beyond what was granted, the angels also sought experience beyond their spiritual nature! They acted out a desire for autonomy, power, and creation—attempting to be equal with God, even if corrupted and limited. Can you see the grave sin? They wanted to literally create, to emulate God, be God. It was creation through rebellion. By mating with humans, they attempted to bring forth new life—something only God truly has the authority to do. Thus, the birth of the Nephilim (giants) were a literal manifestation of forbidden action: a hybrid that carries the stain of rebellion in its very being. There are people, even though they have never read a Bible, will laugh and say the idea of giants is fiction. So, allow me to provide some examples for you: 1. Genesis 6:4 (the Nephilim/mighty men) -- 2. Numbers 13:33 (humans looked like grasshoppers compared  to these descendants of Anak --3. Deuteronomy 3:11 (describes a iron bed 9 cubits long). That's 13 1/2 feet! And what about the account of David and Goliath? Goliath was a giant.

Angels are naturally spiritual, so the act of taking on a body is itself a fall, not just morally but ontologically (had to find the right word)—in other words, they crossed the boundary of their own existence! Their desire wasn’t just lust—it was a longing to experience and control what was meant to remain sacred: creation, life, and human intimacy.  Fallen angels, having lost their spiritual place, took physical forms to indulge in knowledge and acts, attempting to assert a pseudo-divine creativity.

So, the first sin in Scripture isn't merely about breaking a rule—it was a  about crossing boundaries established by God!

There was pattern with Adam and Eve, us, and demons. Something like this-

1. The serpent says humans can become "like God."

2. Humans reach for knowledge that wasn't theirs to take.

3. The "sons of God" (in the angelic interpretation) reach for human experience that wasn't theirs to possess.

4. Humanity later builds the Tower of Babel to "make a name" for itself and reach heaven.

In each case, the underlying temptation is similar: not necessarily evil for evil's sake, but a desire to obtain power, status, knowledge, or authority apart from God's design. Can you see it? Under that framework, the Watchers of ancient Jewish tradition aren't simply lustful beings. They become symbols of creatures dissatisfied with their assigned place in creation. According to the Book of Enoch's account, they didn't just take wives—they also taught forbidden arts and knowledge: warfare, sorcery, divination, and other secrets. The problem isn't knowledge itself; it's knowledge obtained and used in rebellion! And it led to the other interesting aspect I mentioned.  Have you noticed that imitation of God is a recurring theme in rebellion? In Scripture, evil often doesn't invent; it imitates. It takes something good and twists it:

Authority becomes domination.

Knowledge becomes pride.

Desire becomes lust.

Creation becomes corruption.

Worship becomes idolatry.

So, if anyone sees the angelic interpretation of Genesis 6, the act isn't merely biological. It was a  successful attempt to trespass into a domain that wasn't theirs (both angels and Adam & Eve)—to blur heaven and earth on their own terms rather than God's.

How Do You Know It's God Speaking And Not Just You?

 

How do you know it's God speaking and not just you? Or, are you wondering if it's just your feelings  because  you've heard others including your pastor tell you, "God only speaks through the Bible. Anything else is a deception."

Can I ask? ... if God only communicates through the Bible, through scripture, then why does the Bible repeatedly show God communicating through things other than scripture? 

I read God spoke to Moses through a burning bush. I read God spoke to Joseph through dreams. I read God spoke to Elijah through a "still small voice." I read God spoke to Paul by the Holy Spirt saying, "DON'T GO THERE."  And in Numbers 22:28 God spoke through the mouth of a donkey!

Jesus said in John 10:27 "My sheep hear my voice." Wait now. Do not hear what I'M NOT SAYING. I'm not saying that every feeling you have is God. I'm not saying that every thought is God. And I'm definitely not saying ignore scripture! In fact, scripture IS THE FILTER. How? If what you think you heard contradicts God's Word, throw it away. Immediately. But the Bible never says GOD is unable to guide, prompt, convict, warn. lead, or impress something on your heart through His Spirit. 

The question isn't did I feel something? The question is, did what I feel agree with God's character? God's WORD. Did it produce good fruit? Here's something that might help you. The fact you are worried about being deceived is actually evidence that you're trying to follow God. A deceived person usually doesn't want to know if they're being deceived. So don't throw away every thought and every feeling. Test them. TEST THEM! Bring them to scripture. Bring them to prayer. Bring them to wise council. Then, follow the peace of God. One step at a time. Because Jesus didn't say 'My sheep read my book' .. He said, "My sheep hear MY VOICE." And the way you know what His voice sounds like, is through the scriptures! Think about that.

Let Us Love One Another

 

1 John 4:7 "let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loves is born of God, and knows God."

This verse (1 John 4:7) is not talking about love as a feeling, attraction, kindness, generosity, or material giving. It’s talking about a nature.

When John says “love is of God,” he means love doesn’t originate in humans at all. It flows from God’s own being. God doesn’t merely have love—He is love (1John 4:8). So to love “correctly” isn’t to perform loving acts better; it’s to participate in God’s life. That’s why John connects love to being “born of God.” Love is the evidence that God’s life is operating within you, the way breathing proves someone is alive.

Biblical love (agápē) is not about preference, affection, or reward. It is a willful posture of self-giving for another’s good, even when nothing is returned. God loved us before we were lovable. He moved toward us in truth, not denial; in sacrifice, not sentiment. So loving others doesn’t mean approving of everything, rescuing everyone, or losing yourself. It means you choose truth, mercy, patience, forgiveness, and restraint because God has done so with you. Love often looks quiet, costly, misunderstood—and strong.

So how do you love correctly? You don’t manufacture it. You abide in God—remain close, receptive, honest—and His love expresses itself through you. When you forgive what’s undeserved, speak truth without cruelty, refuse revenge, act for someone’s good even when it costs you—that’s love. And when you do that, John says something staggering: you’re not just loving well… you’re revealing that you know God.

This verse isn’t a command to try harder. It’s an invitation to live differently—from the inside out. And the more you let God love you, the more naturally His love flows through you to others.

The Lie

 

The Big Lie

You're about to hear one of the biggest lies ever told to the entire world. LISTEN ..

THERE ARE NO ALIENS. THERE ARE ONLY DEMONS!!! Hear me clearly. He who has ears let him hear.

I have privately and quietly studied the scripture for over 40 years. It's time for prophecy to be fulfilled, for you to wake up out of slumber, and for me to stick my neck out. JESUS IS COMING SOON. He's even at the door. 

Right to the point --  THERE ARE NO ALIENS. THERE'S ONLY DEMONS. The reason why our current government is making this release is for this one reason. The RAPTURE of the faithful to Jesus (The Church/His Bride) is getting ready to take place. Satan knows the only way he can gain control of the people who will be left behind after the rapture IS THROUGH FEAR! So what he's going to do is have the United States government tell the world that there are aliens. And they are going to show you craft that they say came from alien technology.

Alien technology yeah, right, demons working  with men to deceive! Do not believe the lie. You're already seeing some the deceptive mechanisms through "ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE" .. AI. AI will turn on humanity. It is demon intelligence integrating with men to deceive. Don't believe the lie to be broadcast to the world, because when the rapture takes place, the skeptics, the mocker, atheists, agnostics, and all false religions who are left behind will be told, 'You have to take a chip/mark of some kind in your right hand or forehead (Revelation 13: 16-17) to be counted. The forehead could be the Elon Musk N1 implant you've seen in the news or even a laser stamp or tattoo on the cornea of the eye called keratopigmentation. The right hand would be the less inconvenient mode to mark people. People are already stepping forward and gladly lining up and getting this done as "a cool thing, a convenient thing. MARKING HUMANS?  Why? To track every human being remaining on the earth. The excuse will be to number, follow, and know who is left in case "they" come back to claim more humans. That's what you'll be told at first. What's next traps you. Because without this mark, you will not be able to buy food, purchase gas, any household needs, buy medicine, see a doctor, enter a hospital, pay your mortgage, keep your utilities on, etc etc

Many people who belong to different churches, who are a certain level of "Christians" will also get left behind BUT THEY WILL KNOW not to take the mark and they won't. Why would any 'Christian' be left behind if they are so-called 'Christians'? There is a reason. These will actually be the lukewarm Christians mentioned in Revelation 3:15-16. Lukewarm Christians are those who were never totally sold out to Jesus, those who rode the fence between appearance and full comittment. They claimed they were Christian, went through some motions, but never changed, They still lived their lives as sinners. These know if they don't take the MARK forced on them now, they are going to be beheaded by the ruling one-world religion (Revelation 20:4). There is only one demonic driven religion, and growing in numbers , one group of people that does this. They are here now. It's all happening to fulfill prophecy. But not just here .. other countries are complaining against this one religion multiplying exponentially as well. Watch the UK or Australia. This religion plays a huge roll in the end times. Hopefully you can determine which religion I am referring to. I cannot mention the specific name without threat of getting my blog removed. Your local news station mentions them daily.  

I'm warning everyone where this blog has reached, do not believe the lie of aliens, there are only demons .. fallen angels of Satan. If you believe the lie about aliens, you're going to be deceived and go to hell with the rest of them. If you take the mark of the beast in your right hand or forehead (Revelation 13: 16-18, Revelation 14:9-11, Revelation 20:4) as mentioned earlier you'll be eternally condemned. You cannot be forgiven for taking this mark and joining their ONE WORLD ORDER, a centralized, totalitarian, global government.

An announcement is coming soon regarding who they'll say are aliens when in fact are the fallen angels with Satan who were cast out of heaven. These demons are preparing before the rapture and the second coming to deceive as many as they can take to hell with them. The plan has been in place from the time Satan was kicked out of heaven onto the earth. He's using mankind who listens to him and worships him to bring this plan into existence, and we're getting ever so close.

Until the sky splits open,

Straight Truth

 I'm going to be clear, straight forward, outspoken, holding no punches. It's time .. no holding back. No hesitations. I've been instructed to write this blog as a warning rather than a usual teaching lesson.

There are few grains of sand left in the hourglass of time.

The media is currently pushing the narrative "aliens" are coming, here, or whatever. It's time voices everywhere speak up. We're past that! Mr. President, we're past that. The government, FOX News, CNN, CBS, MSNBC, whoever, we're past that!  TRUTH: Aliens are DEMONS. Let's get that off the board. They are real, they've been real. They are ancient because they ARE demons.  Revelation 12:9 indicates: “The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and 1/3 of his angels with him.” So, biblically, demons are fallen angels who, along with Satan, chose to rebel against God. They are here, now, ancient beings, fallen angels, and as the scripture says, will "lead the whole world astray."

Some know and some don't what this "alien" agenda is all about . It's a complete debacle and propaganda for what is to come.  Will you be one to fall for it when--

*When scripture is fulfilled? 

*When the rapture happens as stated in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17?

*When people, all babies, infants, and young, innocent children go missing?

*When all the strange phenomenon that the book of Revelation predicts regarding the end times?

*When  hundreds of thousands of people go missing from every continent on this planet?

IT'S THEN the governments of the world and global medias will blame the disappearance on "extra terrestrials." NO! This will be a deception. What it is, is actually spiritual warfare made manifest, and is the judgement of God upon those left inhabiting the earth who were not raptured because they neither wanted or believed the truth. It's nothing more. It is  nothing less. It's nothing new. It has been written and foretold in the pages of Bibles and rejected by millions for millennia. There will be those who believed what the Bible said; gone! Those who didn't believe; remain. It's called rapture.

Answer this question.  If the lie the media is going to propagate, that hundreds of thousands upon thousands of the people who will disappear were all abducted by "aliens" "extraterrestrials" or "inter-dimensional beings" (whatever word they'll use), then ask yourself, "Why are those people who disappear going to be all bible believing, Jesus following Christians??!" Because THAT'S what's going to happen and it alone will be the proof it WAS Jesus who "called up" "snatched up" "raptured up" HIS PEOPLE, the believers! NOT ALIENS. It will be exclusively CHRISTIANS who are removed from the earth to escape the wrath to come. Because "IF" aliens would be the responsible ones as the media will push heavily, then shouldn't atheists, agnostics, Buddhists, Hindus, other religions, gang members, pedophile priests, murderers on death row ..  all be included in the disappearance? THEY WON'T BE!!! This is how the world will know THE RAPTURE TOOK PLACE. Only the earth's genuine, faithful, Christians will be gone. God forbid, should you be counted among those who are left. This is what you'll see and you'll know beyond a shadow of a doubt, Jesus did come in the twinkling of an eye to remove His believers from the wrath shortly to begin.

We should be taking this seriously. You are being told something completely different and if you believe what they are feeding you then I have to say, I'm sorry but you will be left behind and lost to face a world where all truth-bearers, all light givers, all witnesses of the gospel are gone and restraint has been lifted turning this earth over to total darkness, chaos, evil, depravity, fear, and wickedness. Satan will then rule the earth and you'll be a target of his demons. You have to look at the spiritual side of things. I know a lot of people want to avoid that. They don't want to hear so they turn their ears away. Maybe you've noticed more and more people talking about this subject and there's a reason for that.

We weren't just put on this earth for ourselves. God had a real purpose .. RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.

And It didn't start by a big bang out of nothing. If a bang was heard, or if molecules silently came together without the sound of a bang, it was God creating. You can't make something from nothing unless you are GOD - who speaks things into existence by HIS WORD. We weren't just born into the air without purpose or an end-game, no goal, no life after this.  We have a purpose here and an ending. The end is near but not the way the world wants to make it out to be. A lot is coming. Not because different media outlets say so,  but because the world is in shambles- (a world of iniquity, open pedophilia, sexual perversion, abortions, fornication, sex trafficking, child porn, lewd gay parades, men in women's bathrooms, transgenderism, transsexuals). There are few grains of sand left in the hourglass of time. Jesus is coming for His believers. It is not an alien invasion. It's demonic. They want your soul.

Turn The Other Cheek

-Matthew 5:39 "Whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also."-

When Jesus basically says to “turn the other cheek,” He is not saying abuse is okay, that injustice doesn’t matter, or that you should let people keep hurting you. In the culture He was speaking into, a slap on the cheek was an insult—a way of asserting power, shaming, or humiliating someone. Turning the other cheek was a refusal to return evil with evil. It was saying: You don’t get to control my spirit. I won’t become like you. This isn’t weakness; it’s self-control and moral strength. You are choosing not to let wrongdoing reproduce itself through you.

The deeper reason is this: retaliation keeps you chained to the offense. When you strike back—whether physically, verbally, or emotionally—you hand the offender continued power over your heart. Turning the other cheek breaks that chain. It stops the cycle, preserves your inner freedom, and leaves justice where it belongs—with God, who sees fully and judges rightly. That doesn’t mean there are no boundaries or consequences; it means you refuse to poison yourself with bitterness while waiting for justice.

At its core, Jesus is protecting you. He’s teaching a way to suffer wrong without being transformed by it—without letting pain turn you cruel, vengeful, or hardened. Turning the other cheek is choosing dignity over dominance, peace over pride, and trust over revenge. It’s not saying “what you did was okay.” It’s saying, what you did will not own me.

Until He Comes,

The "ALIENS" Have Arrived

Listen carefully. 

"For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect" (Matthew 24:24). In a time when truth feels increasingly difficult to recognize, how do we know who — or what — to believe anymore? We have entered a time when governments, not just the United States, are finally admitting that aliens are real. In the very near future this is going to lead to something very critical tying into the end times. Each person is going to have to make a very important decision. 

IT'S NOT EASY WRITING THIS BLOG. WHAT I AM ABOUT TO CONVEY IS GOING TO BE SHOCKING TO SOME, LAUGHABLE TO OTHERS. The decision each of us will have to make will in every way determine if you will be deceived and deny the very truth of Jesus Christ, the testimony of creation, and the faith upon which you stand.

Understand, the so-called recent disclosure of beings governments identify as "aliens"  are not aliens as we are being told.  They are, in fact, demons working their way into the deception that scripture warns about that takes place before the return of Christ. Yes, both believers and non-believers will witness this, otherwise Matthew would not have written what's coming could, "deceive, if possible, even the elect." In the very near future, as humans struggle to know who is lying and who's giving factual information, when AI can answer questions in a millisecond, when the left hates the right and vice versa, something unbelievable will make you question your very existence. You will see an "alien" (demon) actually appear to the public and speak. It will tell the world that THEY, not GOD, created us, that THEIR species created us and put us on the earth. They will present dramatic proof (with the help of AI) but the biggest lie will be that they created us claiming the entire story of creation and Jesus was made up and invented by them for monitoring and controlling behavior- to regulate the masses - and thus, the 10 commandments- all in an effort to keep us in line. They will be convincing when explaining that sin was and is an illusion, a mere fear factor tactic.

The shocking revelation that aliens are here and have always been among us since the beginning will come at the same time as them saying Jesus did not live. He did not die, resurrect, and was never part of the the earth's history. I am sad to say that unveiling this deception is going to result in a lot of people, especially many of faith, becoming very confused and not having any idea how to handle it. When this occurs, the only way to actually know what's true and to keep yourself safe is if you have a real heart connection with Christ Himself. Believers must pray through this time of uncertainty and deception so that they too will not believe the things that are about to happen.

Go back to scripture. Remember how Satan first had his hand in the fall of man? He mixed partial truth of what God said with his own deceptive tactical lie which made Eve question the truth, doubt God, then she disobeyed. Here's what he did. WATCH SATANS WORDS CLOSELY. God instructed Adam and Eve that they could eat of the fruit from any tree in the garden He made except for one. And THAT was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Of THAT tree they were not to eat. Satan approached Eve and said, "Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?? Did you catch the trickery, the deception? (God did not say they could not eat of every tree). Eve corrected him saying they were allowed to eat of the trees but one tree in the midst of the garden-the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil they were not to eat from it lest they die. Now, Satan comes back with an intentional lie to entice her further to fall for his deception. "Ye shall not surely die, for God knows in the day you eat thereof, then will your eyes be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." God said they would die (spiritually), Satan said they would live as gods!

It will be the same in the very near future now that the the "alien" agenda is out there. What our government is classifying as an "alien" entity (a fallen angel-demon)  will mix truth with its own lies and once again make people doubt what God said in the beginning about creation, man's origin, and Jesus existence as the only Savior for mankind. The truth is, yes .. "they (demons) were here and have been for a long time (that part they speak will be true) because God did cast rebellious Satan and 1/3 of the angels with him down to the earth long long ago .. Revelation 12:9, "And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world — he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him."  Notice the word ancient? That's long ago! That will be one of the truths that they will use to make people believe they were "from the beginning" not Jesus. SO YES, THAT PART OF THEM BEING HERE A LONG TIME IS ABSOLUTELY THE TRUTH. The lie? They did not create us! God did.

God is the author of our existence (Genesis 1:26) "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and let them have dominion over all the earth." Most likely they will stage as massive display of godlike technology along with AI, weather manipulation, moving asteroids, or projecting massive holograms globally proving they own the universe and all things exist through their hands. They will perform miracles to the amazement of humanity. They were thrown out of heaven but they will say they were here once but have returned to earth, Why? They claim will claim they seeded life long ago and have returned to check on their "project" (us) to stop the wars, chaos, and divisions destroying the planet. They could easily present themselves as "gods" "righteous angels" or even "creators" described in our oldest religious texts and gain a devoted following. They might present a flawless, peaceful society, claiming they gave humanity its core morals and intelligence, and then offer to upgrade our consciousness if we accept our place as there descendants/creation.

You can see many prehistoric drawings around the world craved in rocks, caverns, and caves .. images of "star people" coming down from the heavens. It's how ancient ancestors relayed what they saw. Demons appeared to them too. So yes, they are ancient demons of old. And they have been here and in fact, they slept with the daughters of men (Genesis 6:1-4) resulting in the birth of the Nephilim.  So in reality, they (the fallen angels/demons) tainted the human bloodline by their own DNA long ago! But they did not create us, they tainted God's original DNA given to mankind. Some claim it's the reason 15% of the human  race carries the Rh- factor in their blood. But that's an entirely different story for another day. Because they tainted our original bloodline they will easily convince multitudes it was their own DNA created homo sapiens. Another tactic demons are going to utilize (and are now honestly) is shape shifting! Did you know demons have the ability to shape shift so they can look like us in human form, act like us, function like us? Thereby convincing multitudes we are actually them in a different shapeshift form. Watch this .. in the 2nd book of Corinthians 11:15 Paul warns that Satan can transform himself into an angel of light AND adds that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. They can shift their appearance!! If you weren't aware these things are in the Bible, learn it now. Read for yourself. They all lie. We are told in John 8:4 that Satan is the father of lies and further, that no truth is in him. NONE, NADA, ZILCH., The things you are about to witness is called a strong delusion. That too was a warning given in the Bible in reference to the end times. This strong delusion, this deception (Thessalonians 2:11)  is not meant to fool people who are honestly seeking truth, believe, follow, and accept Jesus as the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Instead, it is a consequence for those who "refused the love of the truth and so to be saved." This happens in the end times. WE ARE IN THE END TIMES, folks. It is your choice whether to accept and believe the truth of Jesus Christ as presented in the scriptures or demons who will appear as our salvation. If you do not believe the gospel laid out in the Bible, you will be subject to believe any lie or deception coming through these "aliens" and or AI technology combined. Your foolish eyes will be darkened says (Romans 1:21-22).  So I am urging all who will hear my voice, be watchful! Read. Seek truth. Deception is coming beginning already with the "alien" stories. 

May God open the eyes of the blind, those asleep, the lazy, the scoffer, the lukewarm Christian, and the unbeliever. No matter what belief system you have, no matter what faith you are anchored in, this is going to affect all humanity as a family.

Until He Comes,
