The Keys to unlocking bible study!
Keys To Bible Numbers
Many of the numbers in the Bible have deeper prophetic or spiritual significance. Both in the Old and New Testaments, numbers reveal hidden concepts and meanings that commonly escape the casual reader. And throughout history, men with great minds, like Augustine, Isaac Newton, and Leonardo Di Vinci, showed more than just a passing curiosity regarding the importance of biblical numbers. Once more, Jesus said, “The very hairs of your head are numbered” (Matthew 10:30). So obviously, Bible numbers should be carefully considered.
At least 12 numbers in the Bible stand out in this regard: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 40, 50, and 70. In order to express this truth, one or two biblical examples have been given below. However, much more can be said on this subject, so these examples serve merely as an introduction and are not exhaustive by any means.
1 – represents absolute singleness and unity (Ephesians 4:4–6; John 17:21, 22.) (We presume readers need no more than these two citations, as most of the biblical information regarding unity and singleness is common knowledge.)
2 – represents the truth of God’s Word; for example, the law and prophets (John 1:45), two or three witnesses (2 Corinthians 13:1), and a sword with two edges (Hebrews 4:12). See Mark 6:7 and Revelation 11:3. It is also used 21 times in the books of Daniel and Revelation.
3 – represents the Godhead / Trinity. The angels cry “Holy” three times to the triune God (Isaiah 6:3). See also Matthew 28:19 and 1 John 5:7, 8.
4 – represents universal truth, as in the four directions (north, south, east, west) and the four winds (Matthew 24:31; Revelation 7:1; Revelation 20:8). In acts 10:11, a sheet with four corners symbolizes the gospel going to all the gentiles.
5 – represents teaching. First, there are the five books of Moses. Second, Jesus taught about the five wise virgins and used five barley loaves used to feed the 5,000.
6 – represents the worship of man, and is the number of man, signifying his rebellion, imperfection, works, and disobedience. It is used 273 times in the Bible, including its derivatives (e.g, sixth) and another 91 times as “threescore” or “60.” Man was created on the sixth day (Genesis 1:26, 31). See also Exodus 31:15 and Daniel 3:1.
The number is especially significant in the book Revelation, as “666” identifies the beast. “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six” (Revelation 13:18).
7 – represents perfection, and is the sign of God, divine worship, completions, obedience, and rest. The “prince” of Bible numbers, it is used 562 times, including its derivatives (e.g., seventh, sevens). (See Genesis 2:1–4, Psalm 119:164, and Exodus 20:8–11 for just a few of the examples.)
The number seven is also the most common in biblical prophecy, occurring 42 times in Daniel and Revelation alone. In Revelation there are seven churches, seven spirits, seven golden candlesticks, seven stars, seven lamps, seven seals, seven horns, seven eyes, seven angels, seven trumpets, seven thunders, seven thousand slain in a great earthquake, seven heads, seven crowns, seven last plagues, seven golden vials, seven mountains, and seven kings.
10 – represents law and restoration. Of course, this includes the Ten Commandments found in Exodus 20. See also Matthew 25:1 (ten virgins); Luke 17:17 (ten lepers); Luke 15:8 (healing, ten silver coins).
12 – represents the church and God’s authority. Jesus had 12 disciples, and there were 12 tribes of Israel. In Revelation 12:1, the 24 elders and 144,000 are multiples of 12. The New Jerusalem city has12 foundations, 12 gates 12 thousand furlongs, a tree with 12 kinds of fruit 12 times a year eaten by 12 times 12,000 or the 144,000. (See Revelation 21.)
40 – represents a generation and times of testing. It rained for 40 days during the flood. Moses spent 40 years in the desert, as did the children of Israel. Jesus fasted for 40 days.
50 – represents power and celebration. The Jubilee came after the 49th year (Leviticus 25:10), and Pentecost occurred 50 days after Christ’s resurrection (Acts 2).
70 – represents human leadership and judgment. Moses appointed 70 elders (Exodus 24:1); The Sanhedrin was made up of 70 men. Jesus chose 70 disciples (Luke 10:1). Jesus told Peter to forgive 70 times 7.
Keys To Bible Symbols
Why cloak Bible prophecies in Symbols?
Luke 8 :10 And He said, "To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest it is given in parables, that 'Seeing they may not see, And hearing they may not understand.'
Many of the apocalyptic prophecies were given while the prophets were in a hostile foreign land. One reason God cloaked the prophecies in symbols was to protect the messages.

State of the Dead Study
According to the following scriptures, what does it say happens to humanity at death:
Psa 146:4 His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish.
Ecc 9:5 For the living know that they will die; But the dead know nothing, And they have no more reward, For the memory of them is forgotten.
Ecc 9:6 Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished; Nevermore will they have a share In anything done under the sun.
Joh 11:11 These things He said, and after that He said to them, "Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up."
Joh 11:12 Then His disciples said, "Lord, if he sleeps he will get well."
Joh 11:13 However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep.
Joh 11:14 Then Jesus said to them plainly, "Lazarus is dead.
"And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Genesis 2:7.
"Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it." Ecclesiastes 12:7.
"So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more." Job 14:12. "The day of the Lord will come ... in the which the heavens shall pass away."
2 Peter 3:10.
Inspiration teaches that God is immortal (1 Tim 6:16) and that human beings are subject to death. Jesus taught that death was a sleep that ends in one of two resurrections. Either the resurrection to eternal life or eternal damnation (John 5:28,29)
There are some confusing texts at first like -
Mat 25:46 "And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
and
Rev 14:9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand,
Rev 14:10 "he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
Rev 14:11 "And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
Do they imply that there is eternal hell?
This idea came from Greek philosophy, which conceived of Hades as a ghostly, shadowy underworld, that the soul lived in twilight existence. The Greeks viewed Human beings of consisting of matter and soul. At death, matter and soul separated, releasing the soul from the prison house of matter into an independent existence.
In Mathew 25 and Revelation 14, the words translated of "Everlasting" and "for ever" do not mean necessarily never ending. The greek words aion and aionios express duration as long as the nature of the subject allows. For example in Jude 7 we are told that the Cities Sodom and Gomorrah are suffering the punishment of eternal (aion-ios)fire. Yet, 2 Peter 2:6 says that they were turned into ashes. When the subject of the words ETERNAL or FOREVER is the life of the redeemed who has received immortality, the word means a time without end. When it refers to the punishment of the wicked, who do not receive immortality, the word has the meaning of a limited time period.
So if you come across anyone who says that your passed on family member or friend is trying to reach you, its a lie - its a Demon pretending they are your friend or relative.
Think about it this way: A woman dies from being beaten by her husband - passes on to "heaven" now as the movies say, to only look down upon her husband from "heaven" while she watches as he starts beaten the kids! What kind of heaven is that?
or
God being so loving and gracious and kind would allow to see his creation in eternal fire or "hell" that would go on eternally!??? God would not be a God of eternal punishment in this sense. This does not mean that God is not going to destroy sin, in fire, and that means, the second Death is eternal - you are dead forever! That is what eternal damnation means!
I pray that you are on the right side of God and have Christ as your savior so that you are resurrected for the Glorious return of Christ and not the Damnation!
God bless

Gifts of the Spirit and Deceptions from satan.
Act 2:1 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Act 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
Act 2:3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.
Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Act 2:5 And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Act 2:6 And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language.
Act 2:7 Then they were all amazed and marvelled, saying to one another, "Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?
Act 2:8 "And how is it that we hear, each in our own language in which we were born?
As you can clearly see here - the gift given from the spirit of talking in tongues is in fact the ability to understand and talk in many tongues (languages) of different cultures and lands as see here at Pentecost..
Please read chapter 12 of the book Truth matters by Prof Walter Veith for a clearer understanding about this "other" spirit that is being seen in the churches of today.
Here is the link to the book online at google books.
Link to Book
please read this and understand that what you are seeing in the churches of today is not from God!
I am not saying that the Holy Spirit does not perform miracles and does not touch each of us, but be very careful with what you are dealing with as God clearly warns us that what we "feel" may not be from him if it "feels" good.
Feelings can deceive many as well, one of satans many weapons.

Will Christ come in secret?
A large number of Christians have been exposed to this "dispensationalist" or "futurist" interpretation of prophecy and have been hopelessly confused.
According to this view, the coming of Jesus will be in two separate events. First, He will come secretly to take the church to heaven, and then, seven years later, He will come in an open demonstration of power and glory. In between those two events, the Antichrist is supposed to come into power and the great tribulation period takes place. But the truth is that the Bible nowhere speaks of these two separate comings of Jesus. There is no second stage of His coming that occurs seven years after the so-called "rapture." By the way, that word "rapture" is also an invention of theologians. It can't be found in the Bible in even a single instance. It is a word coined for the second advent of Jesus.
Lets have a look at what the bible says about the rapture being secret - remember, when it comes to studying a topic in the bible, it must be consistent throughout, we cannot just go on one liners and one mention of it.
Please keep in mind that Jesus called this resurrection the "last day." But how could it be the "last day" if this gathering of the saints takes place seven years before the end of the world? And how could the "last trump" sound if it really wasn't the very last moment of time?
Can you imagine the graves opening and the righteous rising and no one knowing that it had occurred? And consider this additional testimony of the Word of God:
Revelation 6:16,17 When the wicked see Christ come, they cry out to the rocks and mountains, "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?"
Matthew 24:27 "For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."
1 Corinthians 15:52 "For the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised."
Psalm 50:3 "Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence."
Revelation 1:7 "Every eye shall see him. "
Matthew 24:30 "Then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory."
Matthew 24:31 "He shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other." (This is clearly the time when Christ comes to gather His saints.)
I would think this was pretty consistent that this will be a "Loud" event?
When thinking about the end of time, and Christs advent, this passage comes to mind and I believe is a holding point for most secret rapture believers, but lets look at it and discuss:
"But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left" (Matthew 24:37-41).
Jesus is clearly drawing a parallel between the second coming and the days of Noah. Those who entered the ark in Noah's day were saved, and those who refused to enter the ark were left outside. But what were they left for? For another chance? No, obviously they were left to be destroyed by the Flood. So, says Jesus, will it be when He comes at the end of the world. One will be taken to heaven with Jesus, and the other will be left for destruction. Its that simple....reading into it any other way is dangerous and can cause you some serious gaps in your mind to be deceived later. Lets say a False Christ comes - which we have been warned about in: Mat 24:24 "For false Christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
and
Mat 24:5 "For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many.
So - if you open your mind up to this falseness, you may yourself be raptured by the wrong Christ!

What an Awesome 2 weeks!
Firstly - My blogs have touched people’s lives. Renee who has been reading and following one of my blogs, has personally invited me over to write and copy over some of my work to christianconnection.co.za, which will touch many more lives. I pray that the Holy Spirit touches each and every one that reads my articles!
I have had a great 2 weeks. I have had my brother in law over from England with his 2 children. Was an awesome break and was really great to have them. They shared 2 Sabbath's with us and was great! The second Sabbath, we even sat and watched 2 of Mark Woodman's DVD’s and a clip from a website I follow. It looks like it touched him as he has take a few different sets back with him to England, which by the grace of God will touch many people’s lives that they reach.
Another great thing has happened. A colleague of mine who is of Hindu background has been following the DVD's as well, and has said he knows more about Christianity now that his own religion. He has passed these DVD's over to his Christian uncle, who also has been touched. He has requested that we set up a meeting with me and his Pastor of his church to discover these truths about the end times and the beast of revelations. There are truly many deceptions going on around the world that so many are unaware of, and I am so blessed to be a part of them discovering them!
Amen

666 and Relations to the Beast.
I will interested in what the "world" said about the number 666 and the relations to the beast as mentioned in both Daniel and Revelations:
The Nine characteristics of the beast are:
1. The beast combines religious and political power simultaneously, "they worshiped the beast ..." Rev. 13:4.
2. The beast came to power in a densely populated area of the world,"I...saw a beast rise up out of the sea" Rev. 13:1.
3. The beast obtained its power and authority from Satan, thus we would expect its history to contain a great deal of deception,"the dragon gave him [the beast] his power, and his seat, and great authority" Rev. 13:2.
4. The beast ruled ruthlessly possessing absolute hegemony (domination) for 1260 years. This period must have a clear starting point and end with the 'deadly wound'."Power was given unto him to continue forty and two months." "And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death." "And power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations" Rev. 13:5, 3, 7.
5. The beast persecuted Christians during the 1260 years."And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them" Rev. 13:7.
6. The beast will fully recover from its 'deadly wound' and the world will marvel after it,"and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast" Rev. 13:3.
7. The beast has a mysterious 666 that identifies his office and name,"count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six" Rev. 13:18.
8. The beast blasphemes by claiming to be God and granting absolution (the power to forgive sins of others).
9. The beast made other blasphemous claims, undertaking actions that are God's exclusive prerogative."And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies" Rev. 13:5.Dear reader , which power in history fulfills all the identifying marks? To the honest in heart, there is but one answer: The Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic Church is the beast which God, out of love, is warning us of. It is not the purpose of this article to attack Roman Catholics, but to reveal the truth about the Catholic system. No one need be offended, but rather be encouraged to seek for facts and confirmation.
Through my research over the past few months - everything broke down to this simple statement, which has been shared with many around the world!
(7) The Roman Catholic Church has the mysterious number 666:
The official title of the pope is "Vicarius Filii Dei", which translated is, "Representative of the Son of God". To confirm, the Catholic newspaper Our Sunday Visitor of April 18, 1915 wrote: "The engraved letter on the pope's Mitre is as follows: 'Vicarius Filii Dei '". Since in Latin certain letters have numerical values, we only need to add them up to come to 666.
Now I thought - let me go and see what the "world" says about "Vicarius Filii Dei".
I stumbled across a bible study site with a cross argument that says that this name is just fiction / conspiracy theory, just coincidence.....I love it when I see things like this! Sorry satan, you not going to change my mind now!
I stumbled across this page...
Wow....this person has really done there homework! Everything I have ever watched / read / or thought about the Papal system and its relations to the beast of Daniel and Revelation, could not be this exact! Amen to that!
Well you have it for yourself to research and the truth about our protestantism is right here in front of us....we need to wake this up in our churches and take this study seriously!!
God Bless

Sunday Laws….Is this the start of it all?
Well today I stumbled over some interesting information and web sites regarding the Sunday Laws being put as law…. Well Here is the first of them happening in Europe. Croatia has begun enforcing no shopping / transactions or dealings on a Sunday.
Firstly more information about this Law – known as the blue law -
Now, I have been thinking who would first start enforcing this law….well Europe seems to be the place… Croatia being the first: This poor guy was fined for trading on a Sunday.
Here is another article explaining the people trying to get the ban lifted by the government.
I am busy trying to find out if any more have has this enforced as yet or if any are currently pending this action. I will feedback more information as soon as I have it.

Fact or Conspiracy?
I gave a DVD to a friend of mine. Mark Woodman's latest updated - Oct 2008 on the current events globally, regarding the New world order, financial crisis, political events etc. He returned saying this sounds a lot like a conspiracy. After spending some time chatting to him, giving him more information, I came to realize exactly how Noah must have felt in the last days before the rain came. Evil has gotten involved everywhere, now we even can look at the truth straight in the face and call it a liar!
Here is a Question for you:
If this was a big conspiracy theory, why would the Papacy in Rome Bury John Paul II differently than the rest of the popes?
He was buried in a Trapezoidal shaped coffin, a regular shape used by Satanists for resurrections using demons. His face was covered with a Silk cloth (never done before), and was sealed in a Lead coffin! Weird....but true.
Have a look at these 2 x 8mins clips showing you all this evidence:
Video 1
If this still was a conspiracy, and the Papacy decided to trick the whole world into believing they are satanic, and were planning to resurrect the old pope soon, to control the world like they did in the dark ages, burning heretic who did not believe their laws and their religion, then the Bible is a lie too. As the book of Daniel (old testament) and the book of Revelation (new testament) both tell of this happening in the very close future!!
Then everything is a lie, including our existence.....I think not!!!
People, we can look each day at all this evidence, all this news and do nothing, or we can start believing that something BIG is about to happen, and start looking for the truth. It’s time to question your faith, question your church's and start trusting in God! Deception has crept into every area of our lives, and we have been so accustomed to it that we now just accept it! Even in our own churches, Jesuits (covered previously) have infiltrated and corrupted our belief structure, changed our bibles, and completely corrupted our political systems.
The Stage is set worldwide for a global domination. Financial, Political, Religious and Military events have all taken place, have got the world exactly where they want it, it’s just a matter of time before we see the last moves take place!
Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look into the bible and discover the prophecies unfolding in front of your very eyes, do not ignore them! How much more evidence do you need to believe in a loving God and that Jesus is your personal saviour and can help you through these soon seriously troublesome times!!
If you have not seem or read the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation on this subject, I suggest you read this article and do the homework!
God Bless

Jesuits - Black pope - NWO
Interesting Title - good way to hide out - Society of Jesus, when in fact they are the complete opposite!!
"The Society of Jesus (Latin: Societas Iesu, S.J. and S.I. or SJ, SI) is a Roman Catholic religious order of clerks regular whose members are called Jesuits, Soldiers of Christ, and Foot soldiers of the Pope, because the founder, Saint Ignatius of Loyola, was a knight before becoming a priest.
Jesuits are the largest male religious order in the Catholic Church, with 18,815 members — 13,305 priests, 2,295 scholastic students, 1,758 brothers and 827 novices — as of January 2008, although the Franciscan family of first orders OFMs, Capuchins, and Conventuals has more total members. The average age of the Jesuits in 2008 is 57.53: 63.01 for priests, 30.01 for scholastics, and 65.06 for Brothers[1].
Jesuit priests and brothers are engaged in ministries in 112 nations on six continents.They are best known in the fields of education (schools, colleges, universities, seminaries, theological faculties), intellectual research, and cultural pursuits. They are also known in missionary work and direct evangelization, social justice and human rights activities, interreligious dialogue, and other 'frontier' ministry."
As you can see they are deeply involved in the Catholic faith, completely NON protestant. In fact completely evil:
The following website laid some very interesting claims that the Jesuits (Black pope and friends) have masterminded. http://www.thewatcherfiles.com/blackpope.htm
Although some may think these are conspiracy theories, you only have to take a step back and look around to understand there is a force, a mastermind behind all this evil in the world. Yes Satan is the main culprit, but whom / what organization is behind it all? Could it be the Jesuits who have infiltrated the Catholic papal system, centuries ago, and are now infiltrated our churches, organizations and schools?
Well the old black pope was due for re-election:
http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1700157,00.html
Now they have a new guy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolfo_Nicol%C3%A1s
As you can see they have been around for a very long time ---
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_General_of_the_Society_of_Jesus
And finally some more interesting information from the following site:
http://www.reformation.org/general-adolfo-nicolas.html
You can sum it all up, call it conspiracy if you like, but whichever way you look at it, the new world order, the Papal system and many more secret organization are controlled by someone or group of people.....I believe the Jesuits are the force behind the deception, the White pope is just a puppet, the good face behind evil!
REV 17:10
Having allowed the Bible to unlock the meaning of its own symbols we can now highlight the nine major identifying marks of the beast to determine which power in history fulfils these features. These are not the only identifiers: there are many more in the Bible. We hope this compilation of identifying keys will lead you to search the Bible to find out more.
1. The beast combines religious and political power simultaneously, "they worshipped the beast ..." Rev. 13:4.
2. The beast came to power in a densely populated area of the world,"I...saw a beast rise up out of the sea" Rev. 13:1.
3. The beast obtained its power and authority from Satan, thus we would expect its history to contain a great deal of deception,"the dragon gave him [the beast] his power, and his seat, and great authority" Rev. 13:2.
4. The beast ruled ruthlessly possessing absolute hegemony (domination) for 1260 years. This period must have a clear starting point and end with the 'deadly wound'."Power was given unto him to continue forty and two months." "And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death." "And power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations" Rev. 13:5, 3, 7.
5. The beast persecuted Christians during the 1260 years."And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them" Rev. 13:7.
6. The beast will fully recover from its 'deadly wound' and the world will marvel after it,"and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast" Rev. 13:3.
7. The beast has a mysterious 666 that identifies his office and name,"count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six" Rev. 13:18.
8. The beast blasphemes by claiming to be God and granting absolutions (the power to forgive sins of others).
9. The beast made other blasphemous claims, undertaking actions that are God's exclusive prerogative."And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies" Rev. 13:5.Dear reader, which power in history fulfils all the identifying marks? To the honest in heart, there is but one answer: The Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic Church is the beast which God, out of love, is warning us of. It is not the purpose of this article to attack Roman Catholics, but to reveal the truth about the Catholic system. No one need be offended, but rather be encouraged to seek for facts and confirmation.
God Bless

Requested: Music and Entertainment Industries
Thanks to Tia who requested information about the Movie / Music and Media industry. This is a very good topic with loads of information. I will try and be as brief as possible, but with as many links and recommendations as possible. First and foremost, if you were out to deceive as many people in the world in as quick a time as possible, what would you use to get the message out? Please also note Satan was a master musician and is very familiar on techniques to deceive.
Lets first take a look at the world in its current status. The average movie on TV contains some form of swearing / Violence / nudity, adult content for short. How many kids have access to this media, compared to 20 years ago? When I was a kid, I was never allowed to watch a movie unless I could prove I was of age. Now Kids are able to watch movies twice their age. If not, they can hop on the internet and access tons of pornographic, violent, immoral content at a click of a button. So what has this done to humanity? When I was at school, only about 15 years ago, the top issues School teachers had to face were: Running on the corridors, Chewing gum in class, Hair not cut to length, skirts too short, didn’t do the homework, talking in class, flicking chalk, sliding down the banisters. If you look at the same schools now and there problems: Guns, knives, swearing at the teachers, fighting with the teachers, drugs, gambling, sexual offences and many more. That is in the last 15 years alone! We have kids in the US going to school, taking their machine gun out, mowing down all the classmates, then shooting themselves! Its not getting any better either!
Lets look at the Music industry: Kids look up to their favourite bands and make them IDOLS. Lets look at a few old ones and a few modern ones. Elvis was a HUGE and still is a HUGE idol in the music industry. He ended up a drug addict! In one of many of his biography’s he admitted being “possessed” whilst he played and sang. “Something took over me” whilst he played. Another Great musician, saying this through lone teeth, Jimmy Hendrix, confessed in his biography of going to the crossroads like Robert Johnson, and asking Satan for help in turn for their souls. Over night they had the ability to play like no other. They were possessed by a demon and given the ability to be the best in the field. http://www.vagablogging.net/robert-johnson-sold-his-soul-to-the-devil-in-rosedale-mississippi.html shows a bit more information on Robert Johnson and his deal. You can look at some of the songs and the lyrics behind them to see that this was something serious and he started getting real scared towards the end of his career. Jimi Hendrix’s song Voodoo Child is about him selling his soul to the devil for this ability.
If you look at modern idols, Madonna and Britney spears – Their stage show that was showed to the world, them kissing on stage, showing and promoting gay marriages, completely out there for the kids to embrace. Madonna is aware that she is promoting homosexuality to millions of impressionable young people. Madonna admitted to a homosexual magazine that she employs this technique as a means to desensitize viewers, who would at first be disgusted with homosexuality, into accepting homosexuality as normative. Madonna declared:
"They digest it on a lot of different levels. Some people will see it and be disgusted by it,but maybe they'll be unconsciously aroused by it. If people keep seeing it and seeing it and seeing it, eventually it's not going to be such a strange thing"
(The Advocate, May 7, 1991, pg.49)
"The strongest appeal you can make is emotionally. If you can get their emotions going, make them forget their logic, you've got them. AT MTV, WE DON'T SHOOT FOR THE 14-YEAR OLDS, WE OWN THEM". (MTV is Rock Around the Clock, Philadelphia Inquirer, Nov. 3, 1982) MTV has come a long way in leading millions of impressionable youth down the greased pole to hell.
I cannot stress to you more – The DVD available to purchase called – They Sold their souls for rock n roll, will blow your mind when you realize that these so called Idols and musicians that we and more importantly our kids look up to are on Satan’s side of the playing field. They have done tests in science labs to see the affects music, as in notes, have an affect on the human emotion. If you play things like classical or environmental music (sounds of oceans, waves, trees, etc), the brain is calm, the mind is stilled, the overall emotion is normal. Compare that with heavy metal, angry music, the mind goes crazy and adrenaline is pumping. The affects of the radio during rush hour traffic is startling, when you see the stats that most Road rage is caused by the music being listened to at the time!
Books too are just another form of getting people to believe in something either not real or a complete lie. Take for example – Dan Brown’s = Davinci Code. This one had me, right from word go! All these interesting “facts” that were introduced into this fiction book, led you on a path to believe in a sacred blood line being “protected” by secret organizations. Making these secret organization out to be good when in fact they are actually the ones behind all this war. Yes its a war! Satan is trying to win a battle of souls. He doesn't;t want them, he wants to destroy them! Satan hates humans and hates Jesus, so he is doing his best to keep us from God so that Jesus gets hurt! He is using every source available to deceive us and hits us where it hurts most!
Here are some valuable links to DVD’s and Documentation on this subject – feel free to ask more questions, I will find the answers:

Lets Kick off again!
Hello Everyone….Shoo, its been a while. Sorry for those that have been following and catching up with the content of this blog and have not had any new content and where probably wonder why? Well to be honest, I was a little despondent and was not sure if many were actually coming back to look or were going to partake in the blog. But alas, I have had my first comment!! thank you for the comment!
In order for a Blog like this to stay alive and get regular new content, it needs a bit of feedback and also needs some topics. All the information thus far on this page comes in waves. Lots of things has happened since, but not sure what people would want to see and hear on this blog, so got lazy and didn’t bother updating. Well its the new year, and I feel that its time to play a bit of catch up of whets been happening in our crazy world over the past few months. Silly season is now over and things are starting to go back to “Work” Mode. In English that means – use the company internet to write and read blogs :-)
So, What has been happening. Well America has a new president, the Money crisis grew to massive levels, people have been retrenched, lost jobs and banks have gone bung. Israel and Palestine are at war with each other, Weather around the world has been going crazy, but one good thing remains – Jesus’ love for us all!! John 3:16 – For God loved the world so much, he gave us his only son. So that for those who believe in him will not perish, but have eternal life! Amen!!!
I am so glad that God loves me….although I am sinful, not the greatest, best, richest, happiest, strongest person around – he Still loves me. He is full of grace and mercy and has given is Jesus to see us through this tough times! We need to keep our faith and push on as good things are awaiting us!
Since my last post, I have watched all sorts of new DVD’s with massive amounts of information about the bible, the flood, creation, Sin, Satan, The dark ages, Science, dinosaurs, fossils, and so much more. Interesting things indeed that I could never have fathomed out on my own! It is amazing how many different ways the bible can be read, but when God wants people to know the truth, he sure enough gets that message through! Amen!
So what does this mean for you? Should I continue to post random topics and let you put it all together? or Are you going to start joining in and asking Questions, post comments and get the ball rolling for the new year? Any input would be great…..but if not, I will carry on the way I used to!
Hope you all have a fantastic 2009 – God bless

10 Commandments Part 2 - Final
Firstly sorry it’s taken so long for me to post this; it’s been a very busy few weeks and had lost my train of thought. But by Gods Grace, I am back and rearing to go again.
Ok, So what I need for people to get clear with is that there are 2 Laws referred to in the Bible. 1 being the Law of God (10 commandments) and the Law of Moses, a handwritten box that was based on the Law of God, but IS NOT the Law of God. Look here where Paul is referring to 2 Laws in the following passages:
Galatians 3:10-13, he referred to the Law of Moses – in Romans 3:31 and 7:12, he referred to the Ten Commandment Law of God, established in our hearts by faith.
Some people claim to be “New Testament Christians,” and that the New Testament cancelled the teachings or overruled the teaching of the Old. Paul says God inspired “All Scripture” to equip us for good works, so why would God out rule his own inspirations?
Christ told his disciples, “these are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me” – LK 24:44.
If we throw out the Old Testament, we can’t know that Moses wrote the Book of the Law (law of Moses) or that he recorded approximately 640 separate ordinances in his own handwriting. Without this understanding, how could we begin to appreciate the “handwriting of ordinances” nailed to the cross was the Law of Moses? How could we learn that God’s moral law – the Ten Commandments – is eternal and the only definition of sin in the Bible?
To simple put it – the Law of Moses as merely a lesson book to prepare God’s people for the time when Christ would come to bring reformation. The book of the Covenant and the Book of the Law are one and the same thing! 2 Kings 22:8 says the high priest found the “book of the law in the house of the Lord” – when King Josiah assembled the nation and read to them all the words of the Book, he referred to it as the Book of the Covenant.
Lets sum up what we know about the Law of Moses (which was nailed to the Cross and NOT the 10 Commandments of God)
- The law of Moses was Written in Moses’ own Hand-writing.
- The Mosaic Law contained civil laws and ceremonial ordinances.
- It was written on parchment scroll and called the “Book of the Law” or Book of the Covenant”
- It contained curses against those who did not obey the works of the Law of Moses.
- The book of the Law was placed on the side of the ark – as a witness against Israel.
- The Law of Moses was symbolic and temporary.
- The Law of Moses was the Old Covenant contract made with Israel.
- The Book of the Law embraced the Ten Commandments as the central part of the covenant.
So when the bible / churches / society refer to the law in which was nailed to the cross, it was the above – Moses Law and not the 10 commandments of God!
Since God’s Ten Commandment were in place before the Law of Moses, we can conclude that Moses’ Law was added because God’s Moral law had been violated and this is what was removed (nailed to the cross).
If you turn your bible pages into Revelation this passage will now make sense as to the importance of keeping the 10 Commandments: “And the dragon (Satan) was enraged with the woman (church), and he went and made war with the rest of her (the church’s) offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ” (Rev 12:17)
You see in the final show down – it’s those who are KEEPING his 10 commandments that Satan is angry with…..why? Satan knows that if we were to break one of the commandments then it’s the same as breaking them all!
“Do you think that I came to destroy the Law of the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven” (Mathew 5:17-19)
So what does it all boil down too? Well I have met many Christians after seeing all this information still say that Worshipping on a Sunday instead of holding the Sabbath (commandment 4) ok as they say that Christ died for this very reason –I say how can you say this will all this overwhelming information from the same Bible I read? This is vitally important that you KNOW in your hearts that the 10 Commandments are from God, always have been, are and always will be. They are God’s nature / God’s past / God’s present and /God’s Future – Eternal! You can plainly see that when society have taken these out what the consequences are – just look outside your window! Look at the violence, look at the diseases! Now – bringing the focus now till the end times – why do you think the Dragon is so upset and makes war with us? Well we know the truth about the 10 Commandments and we know that holding the Sabbath is a delight and indeed and Law! By doing this, this is a sign between us and God, whereas those who do not, are not for God! = powerful truth – God says that by breaking his laws is a Sin! Those who sin are not welcome in his presence – so Satan is not Angry but very happy that you do not hold the Sabbath as you are breaking the Law of God and are sinning! So Do yourselves a favor do a study on the Book of Daniel, and the Book of Revelations so that this all makes sense in the end times!
“Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you. You shall keep the Sabbath, therefore, for it is holy to you” EX 31:13-14
Let’s talk a bit more on the Sabbath (Saturday) and Sunday.
“if you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My Holy Day, and call the Sabbath a delight, the hold day of the LORD honorable…Then you shall delight yourself in the LORD..” IS 58:13-14)
“And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. The God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and make” (Gen 2:2-3)
In the Roman Empire, the first day of the week (Sunday) was called “the Lord’s [Emperor’s] Day” because Sunday was the day the emperor received his treasury payments. Sun-wor-shipping pagans also celebrate Sunday as “the venerable day of the Sun”
The Romans had banished john to the lonely isle of Patmos for his testimony of Jesus. Do you think John would acknowledge Sunday, the Lord’s Day honoring the Roman Emperor or the Day of the Sun, as the day of his Lord? John kept the Sabbath with Jesus. He knew God called the Seventh-day Sabbath “MY HOLY DAY.”
Many people think Sunday is called “the Lords Day” because Christ was resurrected on the first day of the week. It’s obvious that Christians eventually labeled Sunday as such. But that didn’t occur until sometime in the last part of the second century – at least seventy-five years after John wrote the book of Revelation.
The scriptures defining a day the God calls His own refer to the seventh day, never the first. I challenge you to study this topic in depth. If you find any biblical evidence contrary to what I have mentioned , please let me know as I cannot find a single Bible text to suggest Sunday is the Lord’s day!
Five of the eight bible references to the “first day of the week” (Mt 28:1; MK16:2; Mk 16:9; LK 24:1; JN 20:1) correspond with the day when Christ’s women disciples returned to His tomb on resurrection morning. None of them mention that you should hold this as a worship day!
It’s interesting to note that after the crucifixion, these devoted disciples of Christ first “rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment” (Lk 23:56). Although they were anxious to anoint His dead body with the spices and fragrant oils, they waited from late Friday afternoon to early Sunday morning to return to His grave. They obviously knew the Sabbath commandment wasn’t abolished on the cross!
It is no secret! The Catholic Church claims to have transferred the sacredness of the seventh-day Saturday Sabbath to Sunday. “Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change was her act. And the act is the mark of her ecclesiastical power and authority in religious matters” (Faith of our Fathers, P.14, C.F Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons). Does the Papal system have the power to change God’s commandments? This is where your church instituted worshiping on a Sunday!
It’s amazing that of all the commandments, the 4th starts with the word Remember! This must mean that the Sabbath already existed when God wrote the table of stone at Sinai…. It wasn’t just created for the Jews / or for us while on earth – it is PART of God and his love and his reflection and will STILL be there in the new heavens and new earth!
Well, I believe it boils down to this – which was stated over a hundred years ago by the Catholic Church:
“…the challenge issued by Rome over 100 years ago remains: Either the Catholic Church is right, or the Seventh Day Adventists are right. There can be no other choice”
Who is more accurate with the bible? It’s overwhelming that the Adventists have never drifted from the word of God but the Catholics have changed God’s law!!! That is very dangerous to erase a law written in God’s own hand! Well they have bigger ideas – keeping people on the Sunday instead of the Sabbath, why? Read Daniel / Revelations or the other parts of my Blog to see the full picture – this is why Satan is angry at the Adventists who hold the Sabbath as we are holding the 10 commandment dear to us!
In fact, this is Satan’s strategy to cause separation between God and man. Do you see how Satan is trying to establish his mark of authority by exalting a counterfeit over the true Sabbath of God’s word? This is pure DECEPTION and no better for him but to use the Biggest “Christian” church to deceive millions into the Mark of the Beast!
I keep the 10 commandments not because I have to, it because I want to! That is because I have accepted that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God, who died on the Cross so that I can have eternal life with him and the Father! I hold the Sabbath as it’s a true Delight! God gave me a day of Rest, which is holy, pure and in his name made for us, and enjoy every last minute of them! AMEN!

Plain and Simple - 10 Commandments - Part 1
Ten Commandments: Part 1
Isn’t it amazing that now in most of the schools around the world, have prohibited Prayer in Public schools? On top of that, Government building and institutions have forcibly removed the Ten Commandments from them. Public schools now tech the theory of evolution as absolute truth – I am sure this would amuse or alarm Darwin if he was still around! No wonder it seems that humanity are breading a new race of murderous, disobedient and immoral children in our societies. Can people not see that living a life without God and without Rules has turned the world into Chaos? Disregard of the Ten Commandments has fostered an acceptance of moral decay in our society! Sin has now become a realistic choice in life, which seems to most now as the normal way to be. The Bible warns of this in Romans 6:23 “For the Wages of Sin is Death!”
“What intellectually honest person can deny the consequences of Sin today? Just consider the abortions and sexually transmitted diseases – spawned by promiscuous sexual behavior among heterosexuals, and the politics of promoting the homosexual lifestyle – that have resulted in hundreds of thousands of needless deaths.”
Sex, pornography, violence and crime have become the accepted way and norm in the movie and TV business, which our kids watch every day. Parents are falling victim of bringing up disturbed and confused children who end up blowing away their classmates over a small immature feud between classmates, then pointing a gun to himself and blowing his / her brain away!
The assault on schools around the world has changed values and morals as such: Teenage pregnancies, suicides, illegal drug trafficking, school violence, and killing sprees by pimple faced kids. These are on the ever growing increase and out of control because the moral standards have gone now that the Ten Commandments have been removed. When I was at school, the issues at hand were, talking in class, running on the corridors, chewing gum, climbing through windows and drawing on the walls, now look at the common problems in schools! Why you ask? Think! Now that you have established the importance and need of the commandments consider that doing away with them is not obeying them causing devastating effects!
Here is a good extract from the book: Why is it so important four or governments now to display the Ten Commandments, if you believe they were nailed to the cross? Or, if the Ten Commandments are so important to society, why do you keep only nine?
This question is not to be rude or appear that way; I just have met so many Christians who once held to those beliefs until they actually searched the Bible for a definitive answer! The answers are right in front of you – you just need to look.
In the New Testament of the book James – we are warned that if we break one commandment, we are guilty of breaking them all (James 2:10)
Also Christ said if we break one of the least of the commandments or teach others to do the same, we will be called “least” into the kingdom of heaven (Mathew 5:19)
Do we now have the authority to choose which of the Ten Commandments we want to keep? I think not, as you can see the affects of what happens when they are not obeyed (you will surely die).
Obeying Gods commands does not get you into heaven; you obey Gods commands because you want to and love the commandments. Living in the light of Christ the Son of God, you naturally keep the commandments out of love. Without Christ, you have death. You cannot obey the commandments and think that you will get into heaven, as without Christ you will not Love the commandments and they will be hard to keep.
Although keeping the Commandment is a rule to getting into heaven, you need to have Christ as your centre and redeemer, and then follow the commandments to get to heaven. So why is there a forgotten commandment? God calls us to “Remember” the Sabbath and keep it holy, so why don’t people follow this anymore? I will get to this a little later.
Here is a question – why would the disciples (after the crucifixion) write the following about the commandments: “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is Lawlessness” 1 Jn 3:4. Sin is breaking of God’s Law. “And Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath” Mt 24:20. If Jesus knew the Sabbath would no longer be in effect after his resurrection, why did He instruct His follower to pray their flight would not be on the Sabbath? Another – “For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one title will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled” Mt 5:18. Don’t you think if Jesus as to change the law and get rid of the Sabbath at his resurrection he would surely have testified it would change before heaven and earth passed away? In Isaiah 66: 22-23 give a great future look: the Lord says “For as the NEW heavens and NEW earth which I will make shall remain before Me…it shall come to pass that… from one Sabbath to another, all flesh shall come to worship Me.” If the Sabbath was removed from his resurrection why would God reinstate it in the new heavens and new earth? “Remember the Sabbath day, keep it Holy” Ex 20:8 this is why it starts with Remember – it is forever and is the day we worship and spend time with God in rest! Rest in God and enjoy our day that god gave Man.
Not one scripture in the bible says that the Sabbath was changed from Saturday to Sunday, now is there anywhere in the bible that says that Sunday is a holy / sanctified day to man? Yet Christians are worshipping on Sundays and not on the Sabbath as it was intended? Most followers have this thought – “can the majority of Bible believers be wrong on this issue?” I don’t think we can trust in the “Majority” practices as Jesus warned that masses would follow the broad path that leads to destruction. He said the gate that leads to eternal life is narrow and only a few will find it (Mt 7:13-14)
So what did Christ nail to the cross?
“This ‘handwriting or ordinances’ our Lord did blot out, take away and nail to the cross” Colossians 2:14 but the moral law containing the Ten Commandments, and enforced by the prophets, he did not take away. Gods commandments are a True and perfect reflection of His character – why would his Son take that away:
Character: Ten Commandment Law:
God is Perfect Law is Perfect (Ps 19:7; Ja 1:25)
God Is Holy Law is Holy (Rom 7:12)
God is Spirit Law is spiritual (Rom 7:14)
God is Love Law is Love (1 Tim 1:5;Rom 13:10)
God is Light Law is Light (Prov 6:23)
God is True Law is True (Neh 9:13; Ps 119:142,151)
God is Righteous Law is Righteous (Rom 8:4)
God is Righteousness Law is Righteousness (Ps 119:172)
God is Just Law is Just (Rom 7:12)
God is Pure Law is pure (Ps 19:8)
God is Good Law is Good (Rom 7:12; 1 Tim 1:8)
God is Faithful Law is Faithful (Ps 119:86)
God is Wisdom Law is Wisdom (Ps 111:10; Ps 119:98)
God is Great Law is great (Hos 8:12)
God is the God of Peace Love of the Law Brings Great Peace (Ps 119:165)
God is unchanging Law is Unchanging (Mt 5:18)
So as you can see God is awesome and his laws reflect that – so why would Christ put this to the cross? How will we know who the father is and his nature? What is he now if this is all gone?
