Those who love the Lord receive special blessings:
The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord shine His face upon you
And be gracious unto you
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you
And give you peace
These, and many other blessings and benefits, are named in the Word for God’s beloved people. If you haven’t received the Lord, you can be one of His beloved and become a recipient of His many blessings right now, protection, peace, provision, eternal life…
Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late.
Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

The study also revealed that over 8 percent of youth thought about suicide and 4 percent reported a suicide attempt.
Have you raised your children to believe they came from monkeys and that they will one day die, only to return to the dust of the earth forever, and that’s all there is?
If so, what kind of hope is that for anyone?
Did you bring a child into this world only to discover that all living things die, yet fail to instruct that child that he/she has a living soul, created by God, which never dies?
No?
Who wouldn’t be depressed and in despair?
Bring your children back to LIFE from the DEAD. Instruct your children in the TRUTH. They are a living soul under this cloak of flesh we see in the natural.
If we believe in God and keep His commandments, to abstain from sins which corrupt our lives and bodies anyway; when we leave this world, we will enter heaven with God and all the saints forever (Biblical reference below)!
No wonder so many children are depressed. Most people raise their children to only look forward to a temporary existence in this world, a vapor compared to eternity, then die, and never be conscious of anything after that. How DEPRESSING is that?!
The wonderful news is that THERE IS HOPE and people only need to repent of their sins and receive Jesus as their Savior, who suffered to pay the penalty for our sins.
I have met many young people who believe in God and serve the Lord. Not one of them that I have ever met was depressed to such a degree that they would contemplate suicide, or commit suicide. Furthermore, they are generally happy, well-rounded children – and they all have the BLESSED HOPE!
Why not tell your children they will live forever, because they truly will live forever! GIVE THEM HOPE!
Once a child reaches the age of accountability, they will receive Christ Jesus and live forever; or they will reject Him (because you, parents, failed to tell them the TRUTH), and they could end up in the eternal flames of hell.
Do the right thing, folks.
This world is spiraling out of control, wickedness abounds and children can feel the uneasiness and instability of a corrupt world.
Why not introduce your children to the truth about who God is; teach them His Holy Word (starting with the New Testament), and give them the blessed assurance and peace that they will enter heaven with their loved ones (those who are also saved) forever?
Watch the depression and hopelessness vanish!

The ancient Word of God tells us,
“Let not your heart be troubled, you believe in God, believe also in Me.In my Father’s house are many mansions, if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you, and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I Am, there you may be also” John 14:1-3
All souls will stand before God in judgment (Revelation 20:12), and those who have not received Jesus have no hope of eternal life, but only eternal damnation:
“Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven (except Jesus) given among men whereby we must be saved” Acts 4:12
Jesus said,
“Fear not those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul; but rather fear Him (God) Who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” Matthew 10:28
“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God, and the books were opened, and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life, and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works… And whoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire” Revelation 20:12-15
Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late.

I wrote about this subject in 2012,‘You Will Not Surely Die’ Genesis 3:4, and since it recently hit headlines again, with an added twist on the immortal soul, which was given by God and belongs only to Him, I decided to fire back once again.
Richard Skellett, one of the founders of Digital Anthropologist recently told the Daily Star Online,
“There’s a lot of talk at the moment about microchipping employees and there are some companies that are actually doing that. Living forever might sound crazy at the moment, because the technology isn’t quite there, but we already have the technology to clone. The only thing is that something may be an exact replica in terms of DNA, but it may be nothing like you because we are made up of both nature and nurture. Well, I would say that nurture is all to do with learning; you are a product of everything you have experienced, your likes and dislikes, and that’s arguably your soul. Your soul is you, it’s your beliefs, it’s your values. So imagine now that you’ve got a chip and that chip has been collecting all of your personal details, all of your learning; that collectively becomes your soul.”
First of all, your soul is not your beliefs and values; your soul is the eternal being inside your robe of flesh, which lives forever – in heaven, or hell fire – and it cannot be replicated; it comes from the literal breath of God (Genesis 2:7; Job 12:9-10)!
We do have character traits, which is what Skellett is referring to, which do not contrive your eternal soul.
In the beginning, the devil told Eve she could live forever, if she would partake of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. Satan is a liar and a deceiver. God had already told Adam and Eve that if they ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, they would die. The devil told Eve in the beginning just what we are hearing from researchers today.
Is that significant? As sure as you are a living soul, underneath that robe of flesh of yours, it is, because God already said this would happen again.
The Word of God tells us,
“Remember the former things of old, for I Am God, and there is no one else; I Am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand and I will do all My pleasure” Isaiah 46:9-10 (emphasis added)
God said He declares the end from the beginning.
Man was offered eternal life from the devil, as he offered Eve fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
The devil is, once again, presenting the opportunity to man to partake of the “fruit of the knowledge of good and evil” (in a microchip), to even replicate your soul (in a microchip), by collecting all of the knowledge about your personality traits, “knowledge of your good and evil” characteristics (in a microchip).
What happened in the beginning, is now being declared in the end – the last of the last days, just as God said it would happen!
God cast Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden, when they ate of the tree of the Knowledge of good and evil, so they could not partake of the tree of life, which was also in the Garden of Eden, and live forever. God will also crush this lie. Only those who serve the Lord God can live forever; it has already been declared by God, and that will never change.
The Word of God tells us,
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will, by no means, pass away” Matthew 24:35; Mark 13:31; Luke 21:33
Around 2,000 years ago, Jesus already told John the Revelator about this end times technology:
“He had the power to give life to the image (perhaps an avatar) of the beast (antichrist), that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed (Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey has already declared this in his nation); he also spoke to government officials using a hologram of himself). He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads, that no man might buy or sell, except he who had the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred, sixty-six” Revelation 13:15-18
Jesus gave John a vision, showing him that those who do not receive the mark in their right hands, or in their foreheads, will be decapitated:
“I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them; and I saw the souls of those who were beheaded for the witness of Jesus and for the Word of God, who had not worshiped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years” Revelation 20:4
All of those who do not worship the “beast” (antichrist) will be decapitated.
No one is talking about that right now, are they?
Who already decapitates people in these last of the last days?
Muslims, Muslims, MUSLIMS!
Who believes there is no Son of God, no Christ? The antichrist – the beast – the coming Mahdi (messiah) of Muslims!
Just as in the beginning, God will destroy (in hell) all those who believe such a lie, and He will smash your machines to smithereens, because He will allow no one to usurp His authority, or His Everlasting Word. He is God the Creator!
Those who receive the mark of the beast in their right hands, or foreheads, can never be redeemed; they will be reprobate, condemned to hell forever:
“And the third angel followed them saying with a loud voice, ‘If any man worship the beast and his image and 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. And the smoke of their torment will ascend up forever and ever, and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image and whosoever receives the mark of his name” Revelation 14:9-11
The Word of God promises eternal life for the righteous,
“The Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Therefore, comfort one another with these words” 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18
Those who trust in the Lord will escape His wrath soon to come upon the entire world.
Jesus said,
“Then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” Matthew 24:21

Warning: Some may find the video above very disturbing; I find it disturbing. Please exercise caution.
The video above, Experiment in the Revival of Organisms, was created by the Soviet Film Agency in at least 1940, if not prior to that. If you watched the video, and I wouldn’t blame you if you did not, a dog’s head was kept alive with an artificial blood circulation system, after it was severed from the body, at the Institute of Experimental Physiology and Therapy, USSR, by Dr SS Bryukhonenko.
PIGS’ BRAINS KEPT ALIVE OUTSIDE THE BODY
You may have read the headlines on Wednesday, about scientists keeping pigs’ brains alive outside of the body, and stories about how these types of medical experiments are helping scientists move ever faster towards the possibility of eternal life. In other words, as long as the brain functions, we can always substitute other body parts; hence, they say we can live forever.
There are, however, substantial problems with their hypothesis.
God said,
“The soul that sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself” Ezekiel 18:20.
The devil already tried to persuade Eve that she could live forever – and disobey God.
“The serpent said to the woman, ‘You will not surely die’” Genesis 3:4.
Eve followed the devil’s advice, but she is no longer among the living. The devil is a liar and he will never be able to surpass God’s laws, never.
The devil is simply telling the same old lie.
The ancient prophet and King Solomon said,
“The thing that has been, is that which shall be, and that which is done, is that which shall be done, and there is no new thing under the sun” Ecclesiastes 1:9.
The news publication released Wednesday of pigs’ brains living outside the body is true, but propaganda just the same, because such experiments have been conducted for a long time, since the 19th Century, and prior to the Russian experiment recorded above. The Liberal Luciferian Lunatics only want you to become accustomed to this technology; they are definitely not telling you most of what is going on as far as technological and medical advancements are concerned, nor about human and animal suffering in the process of their experiments!
Did you notice that the same dog Dr Haldane said was “sedated,” not only flinched when its eye was poked, but lifted its pitiful head off of the table, as it was dying! They are liars, just like their master, Lucifer!
The only people who will ever obtain a joyful and meaningful immortality are the saints of God. This is something God promised to all who believe and obey the Lord.
Jesus said,
“Whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:26.
The sinner will also live forever, but he will wish he was dead, yet not be able to die:
“I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life, and the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hell delivered up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one according to his works; then Death and Hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, and anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire” Revelation 20:12-15.
Everyone will eventually live forever, but many who didn’t make heaven and ended up in hell (the second death) will be tormented forever.
There is only one way to achieve the eternal life worth living, and that is through the Giver of Life, Jesus Christ.
The Word of God tells us,
“Jesus said to her, ‘I Am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live’” John 11:25.
Medical experiments, since their inception, are evil and macabre, and people and animals have suffered untold pain and misery from them. They are not of God, and God will bring judgment upon those who torture people and animals to achieve what only God can do.
The Word of God tells us,
“Neither did they repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries (pharmakia – original Greek = drugs [not just illegal drugs]), nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts” Revelation 9:21.
Unnatural drugs are a slow-kill; but faith in God, while using what God created, along with prayer, brings health and healing.
How would anyone die then?
Have you ever heard of “natural causes?” God takes the saints home – nothing has to kill them.
“He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with His stripes we are healed” Isaiah 53:5.
Join the Family of God and truly live forever!

During the persecutions of Protestants by the Roman Catholics in the valleys of Piedmont, during the Seventeenth Century, a young man of Bobbio, named Michael Greve, was apprehended in the Town of La Torre, and being led to the bridge, was thrown over into the river. He could swim very well and he swam down the stream, thinking to escape, but the soldiers and the mob followed on both sides of the river and kept stoning him, until receiving a blow on one of his temples, he sunk and drowned.
A few hundred years ago, Fox’s Book of Martyrs was chained to every pulpit, alongside the Holy Bible. I suppose people decided to turn their heads away from such violent crimes and become more “dignified.” We dishonor those who suffered by burying their testimonies and martyrdom. It also seems most churches today are too “dignified” for the Holy Spirit and fire, Who fell on the apostles of the early church (Acts 2)!
The Catholic Church has never issued an apology for the crimes committed during the Inquisition and the brutal torture and murders of Protestant Christians, who denounced papal authority, denied Purgatory, the selling of indulgences in sin, the worship of idols, and prayers to the saints and the Virgin Mary. Neither has any reparation been made to the heirs of the saints who suffered such vile persecutions from the Catholic Church. Protestants were brutally murdered by Catholics by way of burning them alive at the stake, flaying alive, hangings, cutting them to pieces, burying them alive, drowning, torturing them on the rack, whereby bones were broken and bodies ripped apart, beheading them, etc… The property and assets were seized of those heinously murdered by the Catholic Church from about the Twelfth Century through around the 1820s, not that long ago. The Vatican sits atop the blood of the saints. Revelation 18 describes her brutal end for heresies and having committed such abominable crimes.
“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins and that you receive not of her plagues” Revelation 18:4.
God is calling His sincere believers to come out of the Catholic abomination, before it’s too late!

Are you searching for God today? We are living in such time as the prophets and Jesus Christ spoke of, a time of decision (Joel 3:14), with distress of nations (Luke 21:25), in perilous times (2 Timothy 3), and it is a defining time for the people of God.
Now is the time to settle in our hearts just how much we love the Lord God, our Creator, and whether we are willing to lay our very lives down on the fact that He is our Savior. Many are dying throughout the Middle East, and some other nations, simply because they lay hold to their faith that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior.
I am ashamed to admit that there was a time when I told the Lord I wasn’t sure I could die for Him, if it came to that, but I prayed that He would place that much love and commitment inside of me, that He would give me the great love that I need to have for Him. God answered that prayer.
Jesus said,
“He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me” Matthew 10:37.
This was always a very hard saying for me, especially since I have always loved my son more than myself, more than my own life. Albeit, I prayed for a “heart after God’s own heart” (1 Samuel 13:14) and the love I needed for the Lord.
God promises to take care of all the rest, as we put Him first in our lives.
The Word of God tells us,
“Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33.
In other words, we don’t have to worry about anything we place second to Christ, because He will take care of all the rest! It is His promise to us; He is so wonderful!
The Apostle Paul wrote,
“I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” Romans 12:1.
In return, our Lord and Savior has promised us eternal life,
“Whosoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?” John 11:26.
Not many people realize it, but the Song of Solomon is a letter from God to the Jews and a letter from Christ to His bride. As I wrote the Song of Solomon during my study of the precious book, the Holy Spirit revealed to me that Christ was speaking to me, to the bride of Christ, through these writings in the Song of Solomon. I later discovered that Jewish rabbis have understood throughout the ages that God is speaking to His elect through the Song of Solomon.
The Song of Solomon contains scriptures which have plural interpretations. Plural interpretations are accepted by Bible theologians and they are significant in the laws of interpretation of God’s Word (hermeneutics). Just as the Jewish feasts are relevant to the Jews and their history, the feasts also have very significant meaning concerning: the sinless Lamb of God, who is Jesus Christ – John 1:29 (Passover); living a sanctified life – Hebrews 13:12 (Unleavened Bread); Christ’s resurrection – John 11:25 and 1 Corinthians 15:20 (Firstfruits); the outpouring of the Holy Ghost – Acts 2 (Pentecost); the resurrection of the dead and catching up of the saints – 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 (Feast of Trumpets); Christ’s sacrificial blood offered on the altar for the remission of our sins (Day of Atonement); and the final reign of Christ on earth with His saints – Revelation 20:4-6 (Feast of Tabernacles). These are all examples of plural definitions of the scriptures, the Old Testament being a type and shadow of the New Testament.
The Song of Solomon speaks of the bride of Christ, who is looking for her bridegroom during the last days, but she cannot find Him (Song of Solomon 3:1). Notice that when she meets up with the “watchmen” (Song of Solomon 3:3), shortly after that, she finds her love and she will not let Him go (Song of Solomon 3:4).
As children of God, are we not looking for Christ’s return? Nevertheless, many are tired of the wait and some have fallen asleep, but notice that when the “Shulamite bride” hears from the “watchmen,” those proclaiming the prophecies of Christ’s return, she, the bride of Christ, finds Him and “she will not let Him go.”
Have you long awaited the return of Christ? Have you grown weary in this life looking for God, but not finding Him, possibly falling asleep spiritually?
It is imperative to remember the parable of the 10 virgins (Matthew 25), which fits right into the theme of the Song of Solomon. We are being told in this love story that the “bride of Christ” needs to listen to the “watchmen,” and prepare for the Lord’s return by faith, understanding the signs of the times, as did the sons of Issachar.
If you are searching for Him, you will not find God in the last days, if you do not listen to His watchmen. God has prepared “watchmen” for the last days, whose loins are girt about (prepared) “with Truth” (Ephesians 6:15). It is imperative that God’s people not listen to those whose words do not line upentirely with God’s Holy Word. Jesus warned not once, not twice, but three times in Matthew 24 to beware of false teachers, false Christs and false prophets. Listen to the true “watchmen,” who rightly divide the Word of Truth (2 Timothy 2:15), understanding it by having studied it thoroughly with prayer and fasting, comparing scripture with scripture, “precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, and there a little, (Isaiah 28:10),” while looking to God for the interpretation. As you hear a man of God preach, or teach, open the Word of God and make certain that what he is saying lines up with God’s Holy Word. It is also imperative to study the Word daily and know it thoroughly for yourself.
As you listen to the truth, and tithe your time to prayer and the reading of God’s Holy Word yourself, you will find the “Bridegroom” and you will “not let Him go” (Song of Solomon 3:4).
Jesus said,
“Watch therefore and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass (tribulation), and to stand before the Son of man” Luke 21:36.
In summary, if we love the Lord with our whole heart, if we watch and prayalways and listen to the anointed “watchmen,” we will find our “Bridegroom” and “not let Him go.”
God bless you.

The first time I came face-to-face with one who was departing this world was the day my beloved grandmother passed on. She had been diagnosed with cancer in 1979, and passed on the following year. I wasn’t able to see her often at that time because of my work responsibilities, but God granted her and me the blessed gift of being together on the very day she went to be with the Lord.
The last time I visited my grandmother, I knew she was leaving for “home” on that day. My mother didn’t know this, but I was able to see it in the Spirit. I tried to tell my mother, but she really didn’t believe me, so she continued cleaning the house, and she wasn’t with my grandmother when she passed on. I stayed with my grandmother and the Lord anointed me to speak comforting words to her, until she drew her last breath in this world. I am so grateful to Him for that.
