“Iran could produce enough weapons-grade uranium to build an atomic weapon within two weeks and has, “in a certain way,” already reached the point of no return in its nuclear program, a former senior International Atomic Energy Association official said Monday,”reports the Times of Israel.
“I believe that if certain arrangements are done, it could even go down to two weeks. So there are a lot of concerns out there that Iran can hopefully now address, in this new phase, both at the P5+1 [talks between Tehran and six world powers] and with the IAEA,” former IAEA deputy director Olli Heinonen said, confirming a report released last week by the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security, which stated Iran could muster enough uranium for a bomb by converting all of its 20-percent enriched stockpile within 1 to 1.6 months.
Excerpts from the Times story:
  • Earlier on Monday, IAEA Director Yukiya Amano met in Vienna with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, Tehran’s top nuclear negotiator, ahead of two days of technical talks between Iranian representatives and the UN’s nuclear watchdog, Amano described his meeting as important in addressing ‘the outstanding issues regarding Iran’s nuclear program.’ Speaking to journalists on a conference call organized by The Israel Project, Heinonen contrived to sound optimistic and pessimistic at the same time.”
  • “They are forward looking,” he about the Iranian negotiators. “And I think they have realized that they don’t get away from this situation unless they answer properly the questions raised by the IAEA and concerns raised by the international community. So I’m to a certain degree hopeful. But we have to make sure that everything is covered.”
  • “Asked specifically if Iran had passed the ‘point of no return’ in its nuclear program, Heinonen, today a senior fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, replied, “Yes, in a certain way. But we have to remember what are the capabilities of Iran. People have slightly different definitions of breakout capability.”
  • In his assessment, which appears to concur with that of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a critical level is reached when the Iranians have enriched enough uranium to weapons grade, in the form of hexafluoride gas enrichment, to create a nuclear bomb.
  • “But you still don’t have a nuclear weapon,” Heinonen added. Preparing the highly enriched uranium for a nuclear bomb would take another month or two, “assuming that someone has all the knowledge.” After that, assembling an actual nuclear weapon that can be delivered with a ballistic missile would take perhaps another year, he said.
  • Iran continues to install hundreds of new advanced centrifuges every month, drastically reducing the so-called breakout time it would require in order to produce weapons-grade uranium if it decided to do so, he said.
  • Israel has called for Iran to be stripped of all enrichment capability, saying even low-grade uranium could be made suitable for a nuclear weapon in a short time with enough centrifuges running. “Regarding Iran, we are not impressed by the discussion surrounding the issue of 20% enrichment,” Netanyahu said Sunday, referring to reports that Tehran has been insisting on retaining the ability to enrich uranium to that level. “Its importance is superfluous as a result of the improvements the Iranians have made in the past year, which allow them to jump over the barrier of 20% enrichment and proceed directly from 3.5% enrichment to 90% within weeks, weeks at most.”

MARRIED OR NOT, YOU SHOULD READ THIS ...

 Colossians 3:19  Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.


I got this story from my friend Kathy's FB page. It's a longer story but so worth the read.


MARRIED OR NOT, YOU SHOULD READ THIS ... ( Kailyn 's photo )

“When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?

I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that every day for the month’s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.

I told Jane about my wife’s divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.

My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don’t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn’t tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me… she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it’s time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office…. jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind…I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won’t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of our lives, not because we didn’t love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I’ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed -dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push through with the divorce.— At least, in the eyes of our son—- I’m a loving husband….

The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves.

So find time to be your spouse’s friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy.

Watch and Pray - Sunday Sermon Review

Sunday Sermon Review from my home church I attend regularly. We are continuing on in our Matthew series. This Sunday's sermon was from Matthew 26: 31 - 46 with the focus verse 41 being verse where it says:   Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.


Matthew 36: 31-46 
31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.
32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.
34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.
38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.
45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.


Here are my sermon notes:

We have come to the climax of the book of Matthew. The darkest part of a story is the climax.
Things don't always work out as we had hoped or expected. There is loss of hope and we experience pain.
Jesus went to the garden of Gethsemane to pray. He is troubled and He is sorrowful. He calls on the disciples to pray with him. They fall asleep though He urges them to "watch and pray!" These are words for all of us - Watch and Pray!

How do we watch and pray?

We must remember that when we pray we are calling out to our Heavenly Father - our Abba that is our "Daddy".
We are to pour out our heart to our Heavenly Father.
Why would you hold back? Our Heavenly Father has a furious love for his children.

Jesus prays " nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt".  Jesus is driven to glorify God. He has learned obedience as a Son as we learn in Hebrews 5:8  Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;

How can it be the Father's will that Jesus would suffer?
Jesus is fully human and fully God. Jesus chose to suffer and die for us out of love for us. The human side of Jesus does not want to go through this but He prays "  not as I will, but as thou wilt". He submits to the will of our Heavenly Father.

Prayer is about coming to accept the will of the Father.
Bring everything to Him. We need to have the same attitude as Jesus had.
Some people resist submitting to the Father.
Our flesh needs to die -  our flesh needs to be exposed. We need to walk in the Spirit.
Jesus is overwhelmed to the point of death. He pleads for a different way but He submits to the will of the Father.

Ask your Heavenly Father for protection from temptation.
To watch means you make a plan to help you to avoid falling to the temptations. Do what it takes to remain faithful to our Lord Jesus, to remain faithful to the will of our Father in Heaven.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I once heart Woodrow Kroll pray this pray and I thought I would make it my own: 
Heavenly Father - Your will be done, nothing more, nothing less, nothing else.
Amen

The Gift of Belonging - in marriage and family life

Jeremiah 31:3
The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

Ephesians 5: 24-26 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,


We all have the need to feel that we belong. We have a need to feel accepted in our families, circles of friends, churches and communities. This is true for everyone regardless of age, gender, race or financial status. Young children need to feel loved and accepted by their parents, as teens also do. Even adult children will continue to look for acceptance from their parents. It is important that parents spend much time pouring into the life of their children. No amount of money or extravagant gifts can take the place of quality time spent with your child. Not only are many good memories formed this way but the gift of belonging will be experienced by your children. Read the Bible to your children and pray with them. Take an interest in what is going on in their life and with their friends. Talk with your kids and treat them with respect.

 A wife needs to feel loved, accepted and appreciated by her husband. A husband needs love and acceptance from his wife. I remember when my husband and I were in premarital counselling many years ago, our Pastor pointed out this need of belonging that we have. Perhaps women are even more needy in this area than men. Our Pastor suggested that a husband should show love and appreciation to his wife in public regularly. This includes verbal affirmation of course but also simple things like holding hands with your wife or putting your arm around her in church or in other public settings. By doing this publically and in honesty you are declaring to your wife and everyone around "She is mine and I am proud to be able to call her mine!" This is the gift of belonging. Get to know your wife. God is first, but next is your spouse. Your spouse is a gift from the Lord a your greatest treasure. A wife needs to show love and respect to her husband. This includes listening to him when he talks to you, encouraging him in his line of work, straight up telling him that you admire him and that he is good at different things. This also includes being a willing and loving partner to your husband in bed. This also includes dressing modestly and absolutely no flirting with other men, as well as no bad mouthing your husband in conversation with other women.

 Our need to "belong" is also Spiritual. Knowing that we belong to the Lord Jesus takes a lot of the anxiety and stress out of life. If we have committed our life to the Lord Jesus and have repented of our sin and invited Him as Savior, we can be sure that the eye of the Lord is upon us, loving and caring for us in all of our life circumstances. Nothing can separate us from our Lord. And we have the assurance of eternal life in Heaven when our days are done here on this earth. 

The assurance of belonging to the Lord is of even greater importance than any human friendship or relationship. Belonging to Jesus puts a new joy in our heart that none other can give. The Lord wants to be in relationship with us. He longs for us to be in constant communication with Him. 



1 Peter 3:1-10  Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;
While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

Dear President Rouhani, Jesus Christ loves you. But judgment is coming... ( from Joel Rosenberg )

The following is written by end time Bible teacher Joel Rosenberg. It is a letter to President Rouhani of Iran. Rosenberg writes the following :

Dear President Rouhani, Jesus Christ loves you. But judgment is coming, the Bible warns in Jeremiah 49:34-39. Let me explain.

In Uncategorized on September 26, 2013 at 3:17 pm
God loves you, President Rouhani, but you must repent. Time may be short.
Dear President Rouhani,
While you are here in the United States, I would like to take a moment to share with you two very important truths:
First, the Bible makes clear that God loves all the people of the world, including the people of Iran.
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob loves Persians. Jesus Christ loves you. He loves all Muslims. He wants to forgive you and your people and save you and adopt you and your family into His family to be His children and to go to heaven forever and ever.
The Lord Jesus Christ said, “For God so loves the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16).
Anyone who truly repents and receives Christ by faith as Savior and Lord will be saved. “But as many as received Him [Christ], to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name.” (John 1:12)
This is the Gospel, the good news.
Second, the Bible also warns that judgment is coming to the Iranian regime in the last days.
Speaking of “Elam,” an ancient name for the nation we know today as Iran, the prophet Jeremiah wrote: “That which came as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying: ’Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Behold, I am going to break the bow of Elam, the finest of their might.  I will bring upon Elam the four winds from the four ends of heaven, and will scatter them to all these winds; and there will be no nation to which the outcasts of Elam will not go.  So I will shatter Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their lives; and I will bring calamity upon them, even My fierce anger,” declares the Lord, “And I will send out the sword after them Until I have consumed them. Then I will set My throne in Elam and destroy out of it king and princes,” declares the Lord. But it will come about in the last days that I will restore the fortunes of Elam,” declares the Lord.’” (Jeremiah 49:34-39)
The prophet tells us that there is coming a day when the Lord will have “fierce anger” against “the king and princes” of Iran and “will bring calamity upon them.”
When will this judgment come? I cannot say for certain.
But in the name of Jesus Christ, I urge you to take these and all the Scriptures to heart. I implore you embrace God’s love, repent of your sins, and receive Christ as Savior and Lord by faith.
More Iranians have left Islam and come to faith in Christ since 1979 than at any time in the last 14 centuries. More than one million Iranian Muslims have become Christians in the last three decades.
I pray that you will become one of them. Time may be short. Do not delay.
“Behold, now is ‘the acceptable time,’ behold, now is ‘the Day of Salvation,’” says the Bible. (2 Corinthians 6:2)
I recently gave an address explaining God’s love for the people of Iran, and explaining the prophecy of Jeremiah 49 concerning the people of Elam (Iran). My prayer is that you will take time to listen to it to understand the prophecy and its implications more fully.
My family and I are praying for you, President Rouhani. Many Christians are, as well.

One Body - Many Members

Romans 12:3-5 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

Here are the notes I took from the sermon at my home church last Sunday. Text was Romans 12:1-12

We are all called and empowered by God to be a part in His mission field.
Look around you - There are many of us here. In Christ, we form one body, one group having differing gifts. We show who God is in differing ways. Use whatever gift you have received to help others. A good example of this is team sports. Each player on the team has a position to play - not every player on the football team is a quarterback. Each person must play his part and work together as a group.

God fills us with the Holy Spirit at the moment of salvation ( conversion ). 

What is the Priesthood of all believers?
In Bible times the temple was the dwelling place of God. People worshipped God either in the temple or turned themselves toward the temple in order to worship. The most holy place of the temple was the "Holy of Holies" and only the High Priest was allowed to enter this place and that only once a year.
The temple was divided into four parts.
1) the outer court was the Court of the Gentiles - anyone could come into this court to worship God.
2) Next was the Court of the Jews - only Jews were allowed to enter here.
3) Next was the Court reserved for priests only.
4) The Holy of Holies - only the High Priest could enter here.
The people had to bring their offering to the Priest, the Priest stood between the people and God.
This all changed when Jesus died on the cross. At the moment Jesus died the curtain surrounding the Holy of Holies was torn in two from the top to the bottom. We no longer need a Priest to intercede for us to God. Now we are all priest to God. Each of us can come boldly to the throne of grace now.
Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

We are all called into the ministry. We bring God's message to the people and the people to God. We have access into God's presence.

How does this influence our church? - We are all called. Leadership is called from within the church. Our ministries belong to all of us.

1)  Community - get involved, pray
2)  Ministry happens everywhere - not just inside the church. You are a minister for God where ever you go - job, church, restaurant, arena, school, with friends, etc
3) Prayer - We need to be a people of prayer

John McTernan's 666 Surveillance System Tract

The following article is written entirely by John McTernan. Please visit his website at  http://defendproclaimthefaith.org/blog/

Order or prints these tracts at  http://www.defendproclaimthefaith.org/printable_pdf_tracts.html





The 666 Surveillance System


( Where is the Internet Heading? )




There is not a more spine chilling chapter in the entire
Bible than Revelation 13. This chapter describes a world
dictator, who appears just prior to the Second Coming of
Jesus Christ. He is commonly known as the Anti-Christ or
the Beast. This Beast uses a universal numbering system
placed on people called “the Mark of the Beast”. It is like a
tattoo. No one can buy or sell without this “Mark”. It seems
that everyone knows about the number 666, even those
with little knowledge of the Bible, as it is identified as the
infamous “devil's number”! This is probably one of the best
known verses in the entire Bible.

Revelation 13:16-18 And he causeth all … to
receive a mark in their right hand, or in their
foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell,
save he that had the mark, or the name of the
beast, or the number of his name. 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 (666).

For centuries, the fulfillment of these verses was a mystery. No one could understand how a marking system
could control buying and selling throughout the entire
world. It no longer takes “simple faith” to believe this, as
the literal fulfillment is now coming together with incredible
speed right before your eyes!
Computers, Internet, Wi-Fi, social media, all modern
technology, plus worldwide trends, such as a one world
economic system and government, are creating conditions
that can fulfill Revelation 13:16-18. As the Prophet
Daniel wrote 2500 years ago, knowledge would explode
at the very time the 666 Surveillance System is coming together.
Daniel 12:4 … and seal the book, even to the
time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and
knowledge shall be increased.

Today a person can use a credit card virtually any
place in the world. It has become the universal financial
instrument. This instrument is taken for granted, but think
how technologically advanced transactions have become,
when a person can make a purchase in a foreign country
without currency! And, this purchase then is instantly registered and the funds withdrawn!
All merchandise now is identified with a RFID label or
the Quick Response (QR) Code for electronic tracking. A
smart phone can read the QR Code. IBM is now working
to identify and track every item manufactured and sold in
the world; this is in the trillions. Then it will be very easy to
match these items with the purchaser. With the rapidly
advancing technology, this is not far off. The technological
ability to operate a world-wide cashless economic system
is now in place for a good percentage of the world. The
elimination of cash is all that is needed to bring this system on line. A world-wide economic crisis could be the catalyst to set up this system.
The Bible states that no one is going to buy or sell without a “mark in the right hand or forehead”. This “Mark” is
in the advanced developmental stage with various applications to put “electronic tattoos” on the body. The idea is to
merge technology with biotechnology. The micro-electronics technology is called an epidermal electronic system
(EES). The idea is to have a substance like silk laced
microelectronics that dissolves and leaves the circuits on
the skin! This system is planned to be tied into a universal
Wi-Fi. With this system in full operation, there will be real
time monitoring of everything being sold. No one will be
able buy or sell without government approval. It is on the
way!
Tied into the ability to control all buying and selling will be
the complete monitoring of everything concerning you.
The Mark of the Beast is a numbering system and now
through your Social Security Number, all information
about you can be monitored. You need this number for
everything from bank accounts to a driver's license
along with all medical information and credit cards. Everything now revolves around your SSN. With the technology
coming, everything controlled by the SSN will be centralized into one file and controlled and updated in real time.
This is not theory as this is on the way.
Starting in 2013, the federal government will have the
Utah Data Center (UDC) in full operation. This is a $2 billion complex with 100,000 square feet of computer space.
All of the Global Information Grid will be routed
through the UDC with computers that can store yottabytes ( 10 to 24th power). There is no higher magnitude!
Everything that is digitalized about you will be stored:
everything, down to parking tickets! Nothing will be left
out!
To handle this vast information, the computers will operate at petaflop speed a second (10 to 15th power).
By 2013, the computers will operate at 20 petaflops! They
will break 256 bit encryption and nothing will be hidden. To
transmit this vast amount of information, researchers
invented chips with built-in lasers which use multiple wavelengths of light that can transmit data at terabit speeds.
They are heading to create this system so it operates in
real time! It is not very far into the future.

In addition to controlling buying and selling, we are now
heading into a time of a total surveillance society. Every
day surveillance cameras are being installed in vast numbers throughout America. Every mall is under total surveillance. By 2015, the government plans for 30,000 surveillance drones in the sky. There are now X-ray machines
that can peer through the walls of your home and auto.
The government is using robot insects wired with microphones for spying. There is now software that allows tracking hundreds of cellphones at once and as well reads tens
of thousands of emails! Homeland Security recently admitted monitoring Facebook Twitter and Google.



All the high tech in your vehicle and cellphone can easily
be tracked and stored for your location. All this will be
stored in the UDC
The rebuilding of the WTC shows how advanced and allencompassing the 666 Surveillance System has become.
Surveillance equipment will cover the entire area, with
state-of-the-art technology used, including facial recognition systems, retina scanners, and fully-automated, highly
“intelligent” cameras that use artificial intelligence along
with software to automatically detect any “unusual movements”. There will be infrared sensors and heat detectors
capable of spotting explosives and also radiation detectors. All people movements will be tracked by the computers to detect suspicious behavior and then alert the police.
The WTC is a prototype of what is coming very fast. Picture this surveillance system city, state and nationwide.
All of this surveillance information can be instantly tied into
the Internet through the coming national Wi-Fi. The ability
for complete surveillance of your life is just a few technological advancements away.
As technology advances, just use your imagination to the
ways your life can come under complete surveillance. The
666 Surveillance Society is going to be all inclusive. All
this is leading to an incredible high tech mouse/man trap
with no way out. This is exactly what the Bible records is
going to happen: no one can buy or sell without government approval! This is not science fiction but it is reality.
What is being created before your very eyes is the ultimate electronic man/mouse trap.
The Bible warns that such a system will be in place immediately prior to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. A world dictator, the Antichrist, will come to
power at this time and use the 666 Surveillance System to
require everyone to worship him. Everyone that resists will
be killed. Just think of the high tech of today in the hands
of Hitler, and you have a picture of what is coming.
The “Mark” placed on the body will be the initiation into
this system, which includes worshiping the Antichrist. This
means the total rejection of Jesus Christ. The Bible warns
that everyone who takes the “Mark of the Beast” will be
damned for eternity. Once a person takes this “Mark,”
there is no hope. That person's fate is sealed. It appears
that high technology will be used to seal people into this
system with no way out. It will be a form of mind-control.
Revelation 14:9 … If any man … receive his
mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same
shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God,
which is poured out without mixture into the
cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the
holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb

The bible is an amazing book, as the 666 Surveillance
System Prophecy was written over 1900 years ago. The
events prophised are now coming into focus with this generation.

 In the near future, people are going to have to choose between the Antichrist or Jesus Christ. Right now you can choose Jesus Christ as your savior.
To be sealed into eternal life with Jesus Christ, it takes
repentance of sin. Everyone has sinned and has broken
God's law. It takes recognition that Jesus Christ died on
the cross and paid the penalty for your sin, and it takes a
personal confession that Jesus Christ is your Lord and
Savior. Please do not delay as the stakes are heaven or
hell. The 666 Surveillance System is coming together at
petaflop speed!

Who we are as a church - Sunday Sermon Review

September 8, 2013 - Sunday Sermon Review

1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked

Who are we as a church?

1) We are Evangelicals - To be a Christian is a choice of our will. It is a personal decision to choose God. Humanity has been separated from God through sin. Sin separates us from God. When we come to God in repentance and faith, our sin has been placed upon Jesus. Jesus died on the cross in order to make redemption for us possible. 
Sins ( the wrong that we do ) traps and enslaves. Jesus sets us free from all these things.
The choice to follow Jesus is a choice we make daily. The consequences of our choices echo throughout eternity. 
God has placed the freedom of the will within humanity. We have the freedom to choose good or evil. God will never remove the freedom of choice from humanity. 
Repent and believe the gospel. When our heart moves toward God and we choose to believe and accept Jesus as our Savior, we become saved. Nothing can ever separate us from our Savior. We choose Jesus for our whole life, we continue to keep choosing Him.
Bible reading and prayer are central to the Christian life.

2) We are Mennonites - The word "love" defines Mennonites. We are consumed by Jesus. We are fixated on living under God's love. As Mennonites we believe in non-violence. We are to love our enemies. We are not anti-war but we are pro love. We believe in separation of church and state. We believe that the government cannot dictate what we do in church. We live under God's love. Love is practical.

3) We are a Missions church - As Christians we believe that each one of us has been called and sent out - commanded by God to bring God's message of salvation to the ends of the world. All of us have been called to missions. Each of us can be effective through prayer. We need to be a people of prayer.


 Be active in sharing your faith. Be active in sharing what the Lord has done in your life!

Trust....

Psalm 71:5-6 For thou art my hope, O Lord God: thou art my trust from my youth.
 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee.

Psalm 146:3-4 Do not put your trust in princes,
Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.
His spirit departs, he returns to his earth;
In that very day his plans perish.
