The Trumpet Blast’s That Will Eventually Usher in the Great Tribulation
Part 1(Copyright) by Steven Blackledge (Sonora, California) It is the mystery of lawlessness, as it pertains to God’s definition of sin, which will lead to the worship of the beast as God… We must come to understand that our Savior is the Word of God, and that HE came in full flesh to die because the very Word HE represents was broken… Introducing sin into the world has been nothing more than a spiritual black plague upon humanity ever since the 1st Adam transgressed God’s command… This fallen state of being can only be overcome by the blood of the […]
Lessons from a Prophetic Movement that Shipwrecked the Faith
(Copyright) by Eddie Hyatt (Tulsa, Oklahoma) Winston Churchill once said, “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” This is true of the church, which seems to repeat the same mistakes generation after generation, especially in the area of the prophetic. Much of the turmoil surrounding the failed Trump prophecies could have been avoided if the modern charismatic church had learned, not only from Scripture, but also from history. There have been numerous prophetic movements in history whose experiences offer invaluable lessons for the church today. One of those movements is Mormonism, which emerged out of the Second […]
A Message Concerning the Canaanite Spirit that will Lead to the Worship of the Beast or Man of Sin
(Copyright) by Steven Blackledge (Sonora, California) I happened to come across a message given by Daniel Joseph on WorldNetDaily concerning Jude… More specifically, the passage that pertains to Cain, and how this spiritual state of being is leading many to a false sense of understanding where they actually stand with God due to embracing sin, and the practice thereof as being acceptable to God as long as they believe in Jesus… I have always believed that it was Cain’s spiritual state, and the lack of faith HE had in the WAY of GOD that was the core reason that this […]
Evolution Is Dead! Take That, Nietzsche!
(Copyright) by David Rives (Tennessee) We have never been able to create life from non-life in the lab, despite millions upon millions of tests in the most favorable conditions possible. We have never observed one basic kind of animal turn into another kind, much less a human. Animals adapt…they change… this is observable. But a dinosaur has never turned into a bird any more than a giraffe could ever turn into a hippopotamus! That is a belief based purely on faith — not on the fossil record. Charles Darwin was not a scientist. He was an explorer and author with a vivid imagination […]

Invisible Wounds That Scar the Soul
by Brenda Branson (Hanson, Kentucky) Copyright © 2004 “Yelling at living things does tendto kill the spirit in them. Sticks and stones may break our bones, but words will break our hearts . . .” Robert Fulghum It is difficult for a man who punches a woman or throws her into a wall to not know that he is an abuser. It is equally difficult for a woman who sustains a black eye and body bruises not to know she has been abused, although both of them find rationales to avoid reality.However, the subtle manifestations of nonphysical abuse usually escape acknowledgement—at least for a […]
A Nation That Talks the Talk, but Refuses to Walk the Walk
(Copyright) by Richard Markland (London, Ohio) When it comes to problems, America is a nation that naively believes it has the leisure of looking the other way and turning a blind eye to what is urgent and in need of immediate attention. This in all actuality is a monumental understatement when realizing the cold hard reality of what we’ve become as a nation and people. Even though the very survival of the country is at stake, this is a generation either in complete denial of its true condition or is tragically viewing problems with a wait and see attitude. This non-urgent […]
Take Heed That No Man Deceive You
by Garry D. Pifer (Bloomington, Illinois) Jesus’ disciples came to Him on the mount of Olives and asked Him what would be the sign of His coming and of the end of the world. His response, known as the Olivet prophecy, is found in Matthew 24 and Mark 13. It is interesting to note His first statement, as recorded in verses 4 and 5 of Matthew 24. He instructed them, and us, to “take heed that no man deceive you.” He continued by saying “many shall come” and “shall deceive many.” They would be able to do that by […]
How I Learned that the Spirit and Word Must Always Agree
by Eddie Hyatt (Tulsa, Oklahoma) He was the perfect example of what happens when we neglect the Word of God in our pursuit of spiritual experiences. Without the ballast of God’s Word, we may well float away into a La-la land of false spirituality, and this was the case of this individual. My two friends and I encountered this strange little man while going door-to-door, offering to pray with people, and inviting them to revival services we were conducting in Kiowa, OK in 1972. We knocked on his door and he invited us into his home. We immediately noticed that his living […]
Can We Prove that Christ Could or Could Not Sin?
by Rhoda Foust (Lehigh Acres, Florida) To begin with, can we agree that God made statements and promises and swore to those promises? Did these promises include Christ’s sinless sacrifice and resurrection? If we can agree to these things, then the only argument is whether we do or do not believe God’s words one hundred percent. To reach a conclusion we will look at and study some pertinent scriptures, asking the question, “Could God, in the flesh, have sinned? The symbol ^ will indicate my emphasis on a word or words. Acts 15:18 ^Known^ unto God are all his works ^from […]
