Answer:
When John depicts both the antichrist and his kingdom with the symbol of a beast, Revelation l7:1f, he is showing us some futuristic series of events that some say is too much to entrust to the uncertainty of a vision, much less a symbol within a vision. This argument is instantly neutralized when we realize that many years before John’s vision the prophets had similar visions that are now fully completed, and are now a part of the historical record. For example Daniel saw the rise and fall of four separate kingdoms in two visions that he had himself or interpreted for the ruler in his time. Daniel saw the rise and fall of the Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Greek and Roman empires. One vision was of a man and the other of various beasts, Daniel 2:lf and 7:lf These visions are now part of the past and serve only to prove that God does use such images, they are always accurate and it is time to get onboard if you are going to take God seriously.

Question:
Are natural disasters the evidence that the end is at hand?

Answer:
Actually the increase of natural disasters is not the evidence that it is the end. They are the evidence that the end is about to begin. They are those things that signal the approach of the coming troubles and the return of Christ. Jesus put it this way…And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, And earthquakes in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Mt 24: 6-8 Such events then are the precursors to the great tribulation they are not the tribulation in all its fullness, and it’s scripturally provided order. You can almost hear the phrase…Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, guess what happened.

Question:
Are natural disasters, wars, nuclear incidents, and terrorism Gods judgments?

Answer:
They may be his judgments for our ongoing sinfulness but they are not the judgments spoken of in Revelation. The events that follow the breaking of seven seals, the blowing of seven trumpets and the pouring out of seven vials of wrath are all intervening judgments performed by God alone.

Let me be brutally succinct and put it another way. Man does not perform the judgment of man in that day. God glorifies himself alone. Men would only try to explain the judgments away as some inexplicable anomaly or natural occurrence. They would not think it had anything at all to do with their own way of life. They would never admit that their sins had finally come under the scrutiny of an angry God.

God has endured centuries of our reasoning and wrangling about whether he would actually intervene and judge our behavior. Not even Christians seem to know that he has given us a many examples and an iron clad guarantee that assures us that he will. In the twenty eighth chapter of Deuteronomy, God gives a list of the blessings that we will earn if we obey him in a mere fourteen verses. In the same chapter he pronounces the things that will befall us if we choose to go our own way, and that takes no less than fifty four verses.

Some of the judgments included are madness, hemorrhoids, and blindness. The worn out cliché that says that a loving God would never do such things to us needs to be re-examined in a more realistic light. God usually forewarns people through men and women who aren’t afraid to speak up, but he tells only a very few exactly what those judgments will be. I have not been notified about great disasters or calamities as a rule, but I am still under mandate to proclaim those judgments revealed in the scripture and especially those of the book of Revelation. The only specific judgment I have so far ever been apprised of in advance is the coming economic collapse in America. That doesn’t mean I haven’t felt that some of the calamities I have witnessed did not make me ponder the idea that God had surely intervened to bring them about.

One such event was the recent tsunami that killed a quarter of a million people in Indonesia and other counties in that part of the world. I don’t like hearing about disasters, hardships or the demise of any people and it brought me great sorrow to learn of this horrendous tragedy. I prayed for those families who had victims of the disaster as I watched the reports along with the rest of the world.

About a week after the tsunami struck I heard a little news item about that region of the world that had not received much attention before or after the disaster. I found it impossible to overlook the report without giving it further examination. I heard a report that said that the sale of infants and the child pornography business in that area is the largest in the world. The reporter said, it is estimated that the income for child porn and baby sales was approximately twelve billion dollars a year. If ever I have felt that a calamity could he a direct judgment of God it was this one. I was reminded of a powerful and serious warning that Jesus gave… But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Mt. 18:6

The religious literature, which is often called truth is preventing the human race from enjoying the forward progression necessary for our societies and civilizations to get to the next step. World religions are causing wars in preventing peace. Instead of giving out Bibles or Qurans, let’s give out life operations manuals to each person born into the world.

The life operation manual will include wisdom and important advice to help people throughout their lives deal with life situations. Since all the people who are presently alive have experienced such things, why not pass all that information by way of the life information manual so that each person will not have to learn things the hard way that those who came before them learned over their lifetimes.

It makes sense to give out life operation manuals to each person born and discard human religion, because it obviously is not working and it becomes very divisive. I hope you will consider this in 2006.

But in this section I hope to point out some other ancient predictions; very intriguing prophecies with a double meaning. They were fulfilled in ancient times and will be generally repeated! Why? Because the Jews of old were God’s people, but now they are Lo-Ammi, ‘not-my-people’ in accordance with the prophet Hosea (1.9). However they will be restored in that a small remnant will accept Christ Jesus as the Messiah after Christ’s coming again on the clouds of heaven (see 1 Cor.15.51 ff.; 1 Thes. 4.15 ff. The time of grace in which the bride of the Lamb is formed, the Church [which began at Pentecost] is a historical parenthesis that more or less interrupts God’s direct dealings with the Jews and with the nations as they are linked to the fate of Israel [see also Rom. chs. 9-11] The time of grace ends with the rapture of the Church on the clouds of heaven and then the last week of seven years begins [Dan. 9.24-27]. In all probability there will be another historical parenthesis between the rapture and the last week of Daniel.

Alone already because of the fact that the beast makes a seven year alliance with Israel. However Daniels last week is also seven years. But the beast and the antichrist cannot act before the Church has been taken up, as the Holy Spirit thwarts them. They must prepare their respective roles before the last week. And who knows what all has to happen yet before they are there? The world will not go down in the Apocalypse for who knows how long! Because before the beast the seventh king has to come yet as well[zee Rev.18.10,11].) The Moslem nations around them thank their existence in the first place to God’s dealings with this nation. And oil made it all possible, financially. [In fact from the cradle of history (Gen. 10) the fate of all the nations of the world has been tied up with the history of the Jews! (cf. Gen. 46.27; Deut. 10.22; Deut. 32.8 and Acts 7.14. This is one of the mysteries of God's higher logic and God's higher laws!)

One must bear in mind also, however, that the bible speaks of the times of the gentiles that started with the empire of Nebuchadnezzar, when the nation of Isreal lost their position and in principle became 'Lo-Ammi'. (cf. Lu. 21.24; Job 12.23; Dan. ch. 7; etc.] By the way, in Ezek. 38.12 where the KJV has ‘the midst of the land’ may very well be translated ‘the navel of the earth’. Israel is not only at the center of the world geographically, but will be so also spiritually!

Before the Shekinah glory (the cloud of God’s majesty that descended on Solomon’s temple [1 Kings 8.10, 11]) left Jerusalem in the days of the prophet Ezekiel (see Ezek. chs. 1+10) a long history of warnings had preceded. But the Jews killed many of the prophets and God’s servants. When Christ came He said to the Pharisees: ‘Fill ye up the measure of your fathers(!)’ (Mat. 23.32). I hasten to say that christians so-called and unworthy of the Name of names, abused the fact that the Jews slew the Messiah and used it as a pretext for antisemitism to degrade, to rob and to harrass Jewry throughout the centuries.

In Revelation 11.8 Jerusalem is called Sodom and Egypt, why then do some naive christians go to the other extreme and try to be friends with Jewry only and pray for the peace of Jerusalem as if the Prince of Peace is already there?. Do not take me wrong, please, I am not at all advocating some religious form of antisemitism. But a serious and orthodox Jew attemps to be dependent in the first place on his JHWH and according to the apostle Paul when he reads the O.T. in the synagogue there is a veil on his heart so he cannot understand. (2 Cor.3.15). Christians should attempt to find the golden mean between antisemitism and a naive and ignorant friendship with Jewry. If a christian does the former than he or she has learned nothing from the holocaust. If the latter than, really, the befriended Jew or Jewess is not helped enough. We are not tourists in this life. We are on our way to our eternal destiny.

There will be no lasting peace in the Middle East and indeed in the entire world until the Prince of Peace has returned Himself (Zec. 14.4). In the same book it has been prophesied that Jerusalem will be a cup of bewilderment (sic!) to all the surrounding nations (Zec.12.2, 3). Why is this all so, we should wonder. Why the holocaust, why this powder barrel in the Middle East? Why indeed any suffering at all? It is because the Lord God, the Creator of heaven and earth is so holy that stealing an ‘apple’ is a mortal sin. Sin in general has the character of Eve’s desiring to be like God. And we all try to do the same thing as our first mother. We want to be independent from God, do our own thing; without wanting to be responsible or worry at all about higher responsibilities, let alone higher laws.

The spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus (Rev. 19.10). Christ Jesus is the answer to all our suffering. He that allowed us to fall, came to suffer the ultimate. Not just the death on a Roman cross, but the death at the hands of a God full of holy wrath. Christ died for you and me, dear reader.

While the Church is thriving, amidst persecution, in third world nations, here in America the traditional, local church no longer ranks as the only place to go as the Christian’s primary meeting place. Millions of people claim they are drawing closer to God but farther from any involvement with traditional churches. What’s happening? According to California Researchers called the Barna Group, “…new ways of experiencing and expressing faith, such as through house churches, marketplace ministries, and cyberchurches, are becoming the norm for millions of people.”

A new book by the group’s founder, George Barna, entitled Revolution, indicates that since the turn of the millennium there have been major changes occurring in how people experience and express their faith. Based on a series of national surveys conducted by his company during the past 25 years, Barna discovered that discontent with congregational churches, changes in lifestyles, and a gowing desire to get closer to God, have caused many people to seek new ways to felowship with God and with other God-seeking people.

In the year 2000, most of America’s Christian activity took place by way of local churches. Today, in 2005, during a typical week, 9% of all adults attend a house church. An even greater proportion (22%) engages in spiritual encounters that take place in the marketplace (e.g., with groups of people while they are at their place of work or play, or in other typical daily contexts). The Internet serves as the foundation for interactive faith experiences for more than one out of every ten adults. Personally, though I attend house churches, have held high school Bible studies for over a year in a hair studio and the past three years have led a college Bible Study in a local coffee shop. In recent months I have preached twice at a Disciples of Christ Church, and have taught Sunday School at the local Methodist Church for a month of Sundays. Just yesterday, the Pastor of the local Cowboy Church asked if I’d be interested in teaching a cults class on a Thursday which he would open up to the entire community and, just this morning, I was invited to take part in an outreach with a Baptist College in Oregon. In each instance, according to the examples set by the Apostle Paul in Acts Chapter 16 with Lydia at “First Riverside Church” and with the Jailer at “Slammer Assembly of God,” these gatherings are nothing less than THE Church in all its fullness, never intended to be a mere bolt-on program for the REAL Church.

The findings from several Barna Group surveys conducted during the past twelve months reveal the characteristics of this emerging population of people who had to leave Church to find more of God in their lives. Referring to these individuals as “Revolutionaries” who are intent upon “being the Church rather than merely going to church,” Barna believes that the magnitude of this movement into new forms of religious community will change the face of the entire religious community – not ONLY the Chrsitian community – during the next ten to twenty years.

PASTORS AND CHURCH LEADERS, LISTEN UP!

According to Barna’s research, some of the more intriguing attributes of these Revolutionaries who seek to experience and express their faith in alternative ways are:

*It’s the Baby Boomers, those who are largely responsible for the megachurches that have redefined the Church environment during the past quarter century, who are now making up the greatest part of the Revolutionary ranks.

*Adults involved in marketplace ministry are more than twice as likely as those connected only to a congregational church to have a biblical worldview and more than twice as likely to identify the Bible as the source of truth in life. They are also one-third more likely to contend that absolute moral truth exists.

*About two-thirds of all adults engaged in a house church attend in any given week, with the remaining segment attending at least once a month. That is nearly identical to the attendance profile of people for whom a congregational church is their church home.

*Men and women are equally likely to participate in marketplace-based ministry activity, while men are slightly more likely to engage in house church options.

*The Midwest is the stronghold for congregational church connections, while the southern states have become the most fertile spawning grounds for marketplace ministry involvement, and participation in a house church is equally common everywhere outside of the Midwest.

*Evangelical Christians are those most likely to get involved in an alternative form of the Christian church and also the groupmost likely to participate in both a traditional and alternative church form. More than four out of ten evangelical adults are involved in an alternative form of church on a regular basis.

*Many parents are involved in both a congregational and alternative church form presumably to address the diverse interests of both the adults and children.

*One-third of the alternative church crowd engages God and other believers in a church form other than a house church, that is, they are involved in a marketplace ministry, a cyberchurch, or a series of faith-focused events that connect them with God and other Christ-followers.

Interestingly, Barna also pointed out that surveys of people’s religious activity often blur our understanding of Church behavior because many participants in alternative church experiences are not sure whether to describe themselves to survey interviewers as “attending a church service” or not. “Some of these individuals are so comfortable with their new, alternative forms of church that they do not hesitate to say they attend Church. Others, however, have been so conditioned to think of “Church” as the activities taking place on the campus of a certain denomination that they are more likely to describe themselves as unchurched, even though they engage in worship, service, prayer, financial sharing, and discipleship activities through their alternative faith community.”

What we’re about to experience, according to Barna, will be the most massive reshaping of the nation’s faith community in more than a 100 years.

THE RISE OF NEO-CHURCHISM

Relying upon national research conducted over the past several years, noted that although measures of traditional church participation in activities such as worship attendance, Sunday school, prayer, and Bible reading have remained relatively unchanged during the past twenty years, the Revolutionary faith movement is growing rapidly.

“A common misconception about revolutionaries,” says Barna, “is that they are disengaging from God when they leave a local church. We found that while some people leave the local church and fall away from God altogether, there is a much larger segment of Americans who are currently leaving churches precisely because they want more of God in their life but cannot get what they need from a local church. They have decided to get serious about their faith by piecing together a more robust faith experience. Instead of going to church, they have chosen BE the Church, in a way that harkens back to the Church detailed in the Book of Acts.”

BIG CHANGES IN THE MAKING

One of the most eye-opening portions of the research contained in the book describes what the faith community may look like twenty years from now. Using survey data and other cultural indicators he has been measuring for more than two decades, Barna estimates that the local church is presently the primary form of faith experience and expression for about two-thirds of the nation’s adults. He projects that by 2025 the local church will lose roughly half of its current “market share” and that alternative forms of faith experience and expression will pick up the slack. Importantly, Barna’s studies do not suggest that most people will drop out of a local church to simply ignore spirituality or be freed up from the demands of church life. Although there will be millions of people who abandon the entire faith community for the usual reasons – hurtful experiences in churches, lack of interest in spiritual matters, prioritizing other dimensions of their life – a growing percentage of church dropouts will be those who leave a local church in order to intentionally increase their focus on faith and to relate to God through different means.

That growth is fueling alternative forms of organized spirituality, as well as individualized faith experience and expression.

THE PASSION-DRIVEN CHURCH

In the effort to increase their obedience and faithfulness to God, Barna discovered that Revolutionaries are characterized by what he identified as a set of spiritual passions, specific emphases that drive their quest for God and a biblical lifestyle. Although these are areas of spiritual development that most local churches address, millions of adults who are the most serious about their faith in God were the ones least likely to be satisfied by what their local church was delivering in terms of resources, opportunities, evaluation and developmental possibilities. The consequence is that millions of committed born again Christians are choosing to advance their relationship with God by finding avenues of growth and service apart from a local church.

Asked if this meant that the Revolution he describes is simply a negative reaction to the local church, he suggested that most Revolutionaries go through predictable phases in their spiritual journey in which they initially become dissatisfied with their local church experience, then attempt to change things so their faith walk can be more fruitful. The result is that they undergo heightened frustration over the inability to introduce positive change, which leads them to drop out of the local church altogether, often in anger. But because this entire adventure was instigated by their love for God and their desire to honor Him more fully, they finally transcend their frustration and anger by creating a series of connections that allow them to stay close to God and to other believers without involvement in a local church.

One of the hallmarks of the Revolution of faith is how different it is for each person. “It would be wrong to assume that all Revolutionaries have completely turned their back on the local church,” the researcher stated. “Millions of Revolutionaries are active in a local church, although most of them supplement that relationship with participation in a variety of faith-related efforts that have nothing to do with their local church. The defining attribute of a Revolutionary is not whether they attend church, but whether they place God first in their lives and are willing to do whatever it takes to facilitate a deeper and growing relationship with Him and other believers. Our studies persuasively indicate that the vast majority of American churches are populated by people who are lukewarm spiritually. Emerging from those churches are people dedicated to becoming Christ-like through the guidance of a congregational form of the church, but who will leave that faith center if it does not further such a commitment to God. They then find or create alternatives that allow that commitment to flourish.”

How do most Revolutionaries justify calling themselves devoted disciples of Christ while distancing themselves from a local church? “Many of them realize that someday they will stand before a holy God who will examine their devotion to Him. They could take the safe and easy route of staying in a local church and doing the expected programs and practices, but they also recognize that they will not be able to use a lackluster church experience as an excuse for a mediocre or unfulfilled spiritual life. Their spiritual depth is not the responsibility of a local church; it is their own responsibility. As a result, they decide to either get into a local church that enhances their zeal for God or else they create alternatives that ignite such a life of obedience and service. By and large, these are people say they have stopped going to church so they can be the Church.”

The Revolution: Challenges and Opportunities

While the Revolution brings with it some very promising qualities, an intense pursuit of godliness, new networks of believers supporting each other, heightened financial giving to ministry endeavors, greater sensitivity to the presence of God in the world, a greater sense of freedom to be a genuine disciple in the midst of a secular society, Barna also pointed out that the Revolution brings great challenges to those who choose that route.

“There is the danger of exposure to unbiblical or heretical teaching. There is the possibility of experiencing isolation from a true community of believers and the accountability and support that can provide. It could become easier to hoard one’s treasures rather than giving generously. Some might find it more difficult to sustain a life of worship without a place or means of expressing that praise to God.”

Barna contends that these are very serious challenges faced by Revolutionaries but that they are no more serious than the threats to the spiritual health of regular church-goers. As one who has serve inleadership in traditional church settings, I can recall several instances of cultic and heretical teachings that permiated our ranks and shipwrecked many a sincere Believer. Barna adds, “Objectively speaking, these are the very same problems that we identify among people who rely upon the efforts of a local church to facilitate their growth. We find plentiful evidence of unbiblical teaching in small groups, Sunday school classes and other local church venues. We know that few churched Christians give 4% of their income back to God, much less 10%. We recognize that most people attending worship services in a church sanctuary leave feeling that God was not present and that they did not personally connect with the living God through that experience. We have identified the relative absence of accountability within most congregations. So even though Revolutionaries face serious challenges in blossoming into the fervent God-follower they hope to become, perhaps the main difference is simply that they have a wider range of options for achieving their faith goals than do people who are solely focused on faith delivered through a local church. In either case, it is ultimately up to the individual to make sure that they have their spiritual priorities right, that they are investing themselves in activities that draw them closer to God, and that they stay focused on pleasing God more than themselves or other people.”

How does the traditional Church view the Revoltionaries?

One man’s Revolutionary is another man’s Rebel. The explosion of Revolutionaries in the U.S. raises new challenges for people involved in ministry. “This new movement of God demands that there be new forms of leadership to appropriately guide people in their faith journey,” Barna said. “It requires new ways of measuring how well the Church at-large is doing, getting beyond attendance figures as the indicator of health. And it demands that new tools and resources be accessible to a growing contingent of people who are seeking to introduce their faith into every dimension of their life.”

READ ACTS 16:6-33, then ask yourself these questions (my own answrs provided for the sake od study and teaching):

vs 6-13 Questions

1) After two closed doors and then a vision, what level of expectation did Paul probably have as he sought to go into Macedonia?

(Confidence was most likely quite high)

2) In this century and culture, how were women viewed in comparison to men? (Subserviant; less than slaves?)

3) How many women do you estimate there were? (5 or so?)

4) Do you think Paul envisioned a greater crowd and success than God had arranged for on the river bank? (He probably had a different idea in mind)

5) How did Paul respond to the group he found? (He obeyed the Spirit)

vs 14-15 Questions

1) Do you think God was at work in Lydia’s heart long before Paul ever arrived? If so, why? Why not? (Yes, because her steps were ordered and she was born for that moment in time)

2) Because Paul was listening to God he was led clearly to a group that was not his first choice. Agree or Disagree? (Agree)

3) After Lydia responded to Paul’s message, how did they bring the Good News to her “household”? Did they hear the Good News that same day or later? (Through the women; Seems later – by Lydia and the other women)

4) When were they baptized? By whom? In what water source? (Silas in the river)

5) This group became a church, in God’s eyes, in verse 15! Agree or disagree?

vs 16-24

1) How successful did Pauland Silas feel in place of service to which God had directed them? (Felt low)

vs 25-33

How did Paul bring the Good News to jailers “household?” Who was the jailer’s “household?” (Jail ministry, Family, slaves).

QUESTIONS WE MUST ASK OURSELVES ABOUT THE ACTS 16 CHURCH…

This group became a church that very night in God’s eyes…agree?

What does this story say about our expectations and view of Biblical success?

What are the minimum essentials, in God’s eyes, for starting a church?

What role do relationship connections play in starting a Church?

What are the chances the jailer’s household would have ever been converted and involved in Church if Paul had not taken CHURCH to THEM?

Who is well-suited to take the Gospel to other groups who have unseen barriers to church?

How much do these churches cost to start? How big do they get? How many did they reach? How long did they last? How successful were they? Who were their pastors?

Apply these answers to the American Church TODAY. Compare to the burgeoning Third World Churches.

The testings of Asura Demon include the creation of trouble and disruption that is able to deviate one’s interest and attention to commit an act that is against the law of Tao cultivation. Clear thinking, understanding and tolerance have to be when one encountered such a situation because it is merely a test with which one have to pass in order to achieve a higher state of personal advancement in the cultivation. Examples of such a test are the creation of family quarrels, works disruption, sickness, accidents, time scarcity, temptation and teachings of adulterated ideas by false religions teachers.

Ghosts whom the cultivator is indebted may come to find him at this stage to hinder his progress in cultivation. Why must Tao cultivator in this stage be given the test? It is stated by Heaven that ordinary person without Tao cultivation is just like a penniless beggar who owed others a lot of debts. Since he owes others money, they would not find him to return it because he is already broke. Similarly just like a banker asking a bankrupt to pay up will not be fruitful. However a person who is keeping and cultivating Tao is just like earning more and more money and as such his creditors are likely to bounce on him for their debts. Through patience and tolerance, one’s debts shall be steadily be cleared and the excess merit shall represent light rays for his body’s halo.

Rules and regulations must be carefully observed so that demons shall have no chance to demoralize us to commit evil deeds which will result in our downfalls. Concentrate on the principles and not to deviate the path of the cultivation otherwise it can lead to one’s failure. Cultivation is to sacrifice our time, money, energy, status and position. Humbleness is very important in the cultivation and a Tao cultivator is said sometimes to face thousands demons and millions spiritual tests.

Lao Tzu taught us to be calm and firm no matter what the turmoil outside is. The external may look dull but the inside is bright. Just like in the ocean or a cyclone, it is the mid-point that is the most peaceful although the surrounding engulfed is turbulent or even disastrous. One should neither go to the extreme behavior of happiness, anger, sadness, love, ferocity and craze nor attracted by sensual pleasures of color, sound, smell, hearing, touch and fashion trend. Neutrality and simplicity is the main criteria for a peaceful mind to overcome all trials by Asura Demon.

Along the way of spiritual cultivation, it is said that we have to endure a lot of hardships. This is what my Heavenly Teacher JiGong said about endurance, “Disciples! Do you know whether endurance is advantageous to cultivation of Tao? Endurance is the skill of the worthy persons. Those who have not reached the true Tao still need to endure. Yet for those who have attained the true Tao, there is no need to endure. When there is no prejudice in the mind, there is no need to endure. As when one is natural and does not generate the views of being holy or common, and if one’s mind is calm and peaceful, then there is no need to endure. This is the ‘naturalness’ of Buddha; this is not what common people can compete with. The word Endurance (Ren in Chinese) is a knife stabbing into the heart. How painful that is! In cultivation, if one can reach the state of ‘not needing to endure and having no hatred or resentment,’ the mind would naturally be calm and peaceful.”

T.A Chew had encountered thousands demons and millions spiritual tests since practising Tao. He was told to endure and overcome these tests because Asura Demon will only go for serious cultivators. To go up the ladder of spiritual maturity, there is no other way. Website: http://www.white-sun.com

CHAPLAIN PROVIDES TRAINING IN SELF-INDUCED CONTACT IN THE AFTERLIFE

Charlotte, North Carolina, May 16, 2005 — Determined to change the way people think about death and dying, Robin Renee Bridges in her landmark book, “A Bridge of Love between Heaven and Earth: Self-Induced Contact in the Afterlife,” furnishes detailed instructions in the art of self-induced contact with loved ones in the afterlife.

Chaplain Bridges uses knowledge and skills gleaned from over 30 years as a chaplain and officer in The Sanctuary, a spiritual development leader and peace initiative with global influence. With step-by-step directions for creating a transfiguration room, she gives detailed guidance on when and how to use it. She explains exactly what to expect during the transfiguration, as she painstakingly describes the qualities of the unseen world and points out the characteristics of souls that one encounters there.

Death is not the end of relationships with parents, children, partners and friends. Just as death of the placenta marks our birth into this world, the death of the body marks our birth into the next world. Understanding the dynamics of this transition and the loved one’s ongoing availability enables a celebration of the continuation of life instead of mourning an imagined loss.

For everyone interested in exploring the worlds beyond this world through unmistakable interaction with a loved one, this book offers more than ample preparation to safely navigate the realms to which we translate after death of the body

One of the main secrets to his incredible healing ministry was his high level of faith. On a scale of 1-10, he had a perfect 10 – and that is why there were so many mighty miracles in his ministry. He was called the “APOSTLE OF FAITH” because of his high level of faith. He believed everything he read in the Bible and was not afraid to push the envelope with God. One of his favorite sayings was: “If the Spirit doesn’t move me, I’ll move Him.”

I recently was reading one of my books on his life when I came upon a message he gave to some younger people. As soon as I read it, I felt it was a word from the Lord. I do not know if he himself was aware of it, but I believe he received a prophetic flow from the Holy Spirit on this message.

He is giving a message on the POWER
of the word of God. I’m going to type this out for you because I would consider
this a “classic statement” on how powerful the Bible and the individual
Scripture verses really are. Here was the message.

The Message

“Fill your head and your heart with the Scriptures. Memorize passages from the Word, with the name of the book, the chapter, and the verse, so that you can quote the Scripture correctly in addresses or in open-air meetings.

As you do this, you are sowing in your heart seeds, which the Spirit of God can germinate. He can bring to your remembrance from time to time that which you have once memorized. You must be so soaked with the Word of God, you must be filled with it, that you yourself are a living epistle, known and read of all men.

Believers are strong only as the Word of God abides in them. The Word of God is spirit and life to those who receive it in simple faith, and it is a verifier of all who own its sway. Know your Book, live it, believe it, and obey it. Hide God’s word in your heart. It will save your soul, quicken your body, illumine your mind. The Word of God is full and final, infallible, reliable, and up-to-date, and our attitude towards it must be one of unquestioned obedience.

If a thing is in the Bible, it is so; it is not even to be prayed about; it is to be received and acted upon. Inactivity of faith is a robber, which steals blessing. Increase comes by action, by using what we have and what we know. Your life must be one of going from faith to faith.”

Conclusion

He had 3 other “pet sayings” which I feel are really catchy. These are true words of knowledge and wisdom.

“Great faith is the product of great fights.”
“Great testimonies are the outcome of great tests.”
“Great triumphs can only come out of great trials.”

The Bible is referred to as the seed of God. Like he says, when you read the Bible, the individual Scripture verses are going into you like seeds. The Holy Spirit will then take the knowledge that is in those verses (seeds) and start what he calls the germination process.

In other words, the Holy Spirit will start to produce fruit and Godly change into your personality and life. But the Holy Spirit always needs knowledge to work with and the individual Scripture verses give Him the knowledge in which He can start the molding and transforming process within you. It’s the Word and the Spirit working together that will start the transformation and sanctification process within each person.

For those who would like to read a good book on this man, there is a small 157 page paperback book titled “Smith Wigglesworth – Apostle of Faith.” The author is Stanley Howard Frodsham.
You can click on the link and order it from Parable.com Christian bookstore online. It talks about all of his “secrets” and a lot of the unbelievable healings that he had in his ministry.

In addition to the healing ministry that he had, he also was a powerful evangelist and won many souls to the Kingdom of God. He traveled throughout most of Europe and the United States.

In all my research this man, in my opinion, may have been one of the greatest eagles to have ever walked this earth. He truly tapped into the real power of God and God used him mightily in getting people saved, healed and delivered.

The funny thing about him is that most Christians have never heard of him. He was non-denominational. He did not belong to any one Church or denomination and he went wherever the Holy Spirit would lead him. He perfectly followed the leadings he received from the Holy Spirit on a daily basis as to where he should go, what he should do, who he should see, etc.

They say his second secret, besides his high level of faith that was responsible for all of his success, was his ability to mesh with and follow the leadings of the Holy Spirit on a daily basis – and that is what being a real eagle for God is all about.
Eagles have to learn to fly on strong wind thermals in order to be able to fly to heights that no other bird can – and Eagles of God have to be able to mesh with and follow the leadings and directions of the Holy Spirit if they want to accomplish great things for God.
That is why I call this man a True Eagle of God – because he was able to master the skill of being able to read and move with the Holy Spirit on a daily basis.

Yet for all of this profusion of bibles one of the flimsiest excuses for not reading or trusting the bible is still being used everywhere throughout the land. Who has not heard someone say, “The bible is open to interpretation and that’s why it can’t be trusted”?
If honestly examined, this excuse will be found to be just another one of those “common wisdom of the day” utterances that has no more truth in it than water in the desert. It is grown out of ignorance, watered by indifference and harvested in laziness. It is used glibly but has dire consequences; in fact it could cost a person their entire future.

The first rule of interpretation says that no one has the right to interpret the scripture in a merely personal or private way. …Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. I Peter 1:20 If the bible is not open to private interpretation then it must only be open to public interpretation. That is the key. The universal bible believing church the world over has an interpretation that qualifies this fact, the minor doctrinal differences and the trend toward liberalism notwithstanding. Whether Pentecostal, Evangelical, Baptist, Methodist or any other major historical denomination the bible is interpreted the same. Jesus death and resurrection is the key to salvation and his teachings are the key to our best behavior. When people stray very far from this kind of interpretation of the bible they are bordering on heresy, cultism or something worse.

Another great rule of sound biblical interpretation is to let the bible interpret itself. Let the whole bible reflect on any part of it in particular. You will rarely ever go wrong by applying this rule. This of course implies that you would have to study the whole bible. That alone would just about eliminate any problem with bible interpretation you will ever encounter.

An old preacher from Vermont once told me of a basic rule of interpretation he had learned while attending Bible College. I have never forgotten it and I’ve never failed to use it. He said, “If the scripture makes plain sense, seek no other sense”. Being complicated is not a prerequisite to being a bible student so don’t bury your self in hidden meanings and obscurities, just get on with what is known and apparent.

Finally take a lesson from the smallest child. Ask them what Jesus meant when he said we should love each other, or that we should forgive others. They know what these things mean even when those who hide behind the idea that the bible is riddled with too many interpretations don’t. Some passages are simple but that does not mean they aren’t profound. Other passages are more complex but can be clearly understood by the simplest approach, much like that of a child. The child like approach to scriptural interpretation is the shortest route to understanding; in fact it is also the shortest route to salvation itself. Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. Mark 10:15

We must cease to view the bible as some deep manual of religion only to be known by the initiated or specially trained. Someone once said that the bible and more so, the New Testament is a letter from God the Father to his children. Who would think a letter from your father was meant to create confusion. It would speak of his love, his intentions, his ongoing plans and his final return home. It would give instructions and details on what to do until he returns. No one would throw a letter from their father in a corner and say I don’t understand any of that so I’ll just do what I want to until he returns home and take it up with him then.

The words of the bible never create confusion. In fact it is the dismissing of these words that creates confusion. If we hide behind the worn out clich© about “it is all open to interpretation” we will find ourselves with no where to hide in the final day. Jesus said the very opposite about his words, He said they would illuminate our lives and bring peace to us, not confusion. In fact they would produce life itself within us…the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:33

Mother Shakthi once propitiated Lord Shiva with such fervent intensity that she be part of him in body and mind. Her pleased husband through his divine powers granted her this wish. The Master then absorbed her in half of himself and thus was created the half-man half-woman aspect of Lord Shiva, symbolising the oneness of all beings.

The Significance:

This fusion of Shiva and Shakthi representing the male and female halves transcends the distinction between and limitation of male and female and takes the Lord to the level of beyond-gender manifest Brahman, realization of which means liberation.

Shakthi part is golden, while Shiva part is snow-white. She is substrate and He is substance.. Shiva is static; Shakthi is dynamic and creative. Shiva is Being and Shakthi is Becoming. He is One; She is many; He is Infinite and She renders the Infinite into finite; He is formless and She renders the Formless into myriad forms; But both are one. Shiva and Shakthi exist in Nirmala Turiya state (Stainless Purity).

When it comes to worship of Ardhanarisvara, some worship the Shiva aspect and some worship the Shakthi aspect. Shiva is viewed as the Holder of Power, though he is inert. Shiva is Shava (dead body) without Shakthi. All that power in creation, maintenance, and dissolution rests with Shakthi. But the Great Mother does not exist without Shiva.

When they become one Ardhanarishvara becomes a being of generative and constructive force. Ardhanarishvara it seems shows us just what can be done when we embrace the opposite in ourselves.

Philosophically, this form portrays the boundless Grace of God. The formless God is called parashiva. On Its own free-will for the benefit of pashus (souls), which are drowned in pAsha (bondage), It thinks to create the worlds. Its dynamism of creation thus springs out of It, which is called Shakthi. Now Shiva and Its power Shakthi create everything. This is the form of their togetherness that makes every existence active.
Shiva and Shakthi are one and the same Supreme may also act independently. They are associated like the person and the action of the person. They are one and the same like the ice and the water – one becomes the other. Poet Kalidasa hails them as inseparable like the word and its meaning, the letter and pronunciation!!

“vAk arthA viva samprakthau vAkartha pprathipathayae
jagatha: pithrau vandhe parvathi parameshwarau “

To derive the pertinent idiom and its ideation I adore the Parents of Universe, Paarvati and Parameshvara, who are like an ever-embodied entity of sound and its sense.

From time immemorial the man-woman relationship has always dominated the very fabric of civilization. Whether it is the western theory of creation, that of Adam and Eve, or the Indian concept of Purusha and Prakriti, the very core of civilization stems from the concept of the union of the male and the female.

Shiva and Shakthi are compared to gold and gold ornaments; they are same; Shiva is hypostasis and when this force fuses with Shakthi results in multitude of manifestations.

Legends:

We find many references in our ancient puranas, regarding the origin of this Supreme form.

Brahma the creator of the universe, crafted the cosmos as per the divine instruction. He made all the living beings and yet could not find any development. The beautiful world remained lifeless without any expansion. The maker was very much worried. A heavenly voice instructed him to commence creation with the help of copulative activities. But Brahma was finding it impossible since all the forms had been inert (males) till then. At this instance the supreme form of Ardhanareeshwara manifested. Brahma contemplated on this form of Shiva – Shakti. The Lord became very pleased with him revealed his Ardhanari form- Left side of his body resembled like a woman while the right side appeared like a man. Lord Brahma worshipped this form of Shiva and the Lord then separated the feminine part of his body and thus manifested mother Shakti. Lord Brahma worshipped her and requested to bestow such power by which he could create a woman. Goddess Shakti blessed him by saying – ‘So be it’ and vanished. This way Lord Brahma became capable of commencing copulative creation. It was only then that Brahma realized his mistake and created a woman, and Srishti or creation began.

In another episode, Goddess Umadevi once playfully closed the eyes of her beloved, which plunged the world into darkness. All living beings suffered in the dark. The universal mother felt for her folly and separated herself from her companion. Mother started worshipping Lord Shiva in the form of Linga to absolve herself of this sin and to reunite with him. Lord Vishnu, (or Adi Kesava Perumal, enshrined at Thiruchenkode, a unique Ardhanareeshwara temple) instructed Shakthi on the Kedara Gowri Vratam to be performed to unite with Shiva. When she reached Kancheepuram, Lord Shiva ordered her to proceed to Thiruvannamalai and do her penance. Likewise Mother Parvathi did penance at Pavalakundru with the help of Saint Gowthama. A demon called Makishasuran disturbed the penance of Mother Parvathi. The Mother took the form of goddess Durga Devi and destroyed him on the full moon day of the Tamil Month of Karthigai during the auspicious period of pradosham. Lord Shiva presented himself in the form of Fire atop the hill and merged Goddess Parvathi on the left half of his body. This day of Supreme merger is celebrated as Deepavali. To commemorate this event, every year during the festival of Annamalai Deepam, Lord Arthanareeswaramurthi presents himself as Jyothi Swaroopa to his devotees.

Another famous anecdote of Ardhanareeshwra is related to Sage Bringi. Sage Bringi was one of the ardent devotees of Lord Shiva who considered that Shiva grace is the ultimate source for existence. He was a violent votary of Lord Shiva to the exclusion of any deity in the worship including Parvathi! He refused to worship Shakthi, a woman. Even during his daily worship, he would circumbulate only the Lord ignoring Mother Shakthi, with a flashing spark of arrogance. The divine couple wanted to enlighten the sage and hence assumed this unique form sharing his body with Parvathi. The couple took the form of Ardhanareeshwara and stood unified inseparable to every atom. Even then the egoistic sage took the form of a bee (Bringa is a Sanskrit for Bee.

The sage came to be called Bhringi because he once became a bee.) and tried to pierce through the body of the Lord so that he could go around only the Shiva part. In every human body the static force of Shiva constituted the bone and the skin and the dynamic force of Shakthi triggered the blood and flesh. Goddess Shakti, being the power as the name indicates, pulled out her energy from Bringi’s body. Now he was a mere skeleton and was even unable to stand. The Lord pacified Parvathi and gave the sage one more leg to stand. The sage soon realized his folly and understood that life becomes dynamic only by the blending of both grace and force which are not contradictory but complementary to each other.

The Vatican was behind this vile idea and persuades her puppet politicians to support it. Jesuit-fascists have been laying in wait, patiently working underground, eager to emerge and spring their GRAND DESIGN upon an unsuspecting world: GERMANY’S FOURTH REICH – the revival of the so-called Holy Roman Empire!

Captive Jerusalem – held hostage to foreign ideas and alien restraints – would be subject to remote control by an imposed “GOVERNOR” and his entourage of “INTERNATIONAL OFFICERS.” These proposed ministers of Church and State are to be neither citizens of Israel or Palestine. Watch for these seats to be filled with dormant monarchs from Europe (Part III. City of Jerusalem).

The Bible brands this counterfeit “King of kings” as THE BEAST! (Rev.13:18, 17:12). Such a royal European “governor” (promoted by the pope, endorsed by the Vatican, and stamped with the German mark of approval) – an anointed Merovingian Messiah – will wage an unholy war against all opposition! This modern Antiochus Epiphanes (“god in the flesh”) will strike the “Time of Jacob’s Trouble” and unleash the “Great Tribulation” of WWIII!

This blueprint of the Beast is laid out before our very eyes, yet precious few take it seriously – for now. Many ridicule any idea of a threat from Fortress Europe and most probably won’t wake up until it’s too late!

Normally, even the most liberal Jews are against any division of Jerusalem. But these are not normal times! Some Jews were prophesied to sell out their people and homeland! Why? They’ll fall for EUROPE’S BIG LIE of “peace and security.” Meanwhile, Europe flatters such KAPOS OF COMPROMISE and appeasement, stroking their egos with political attention, promising them a place in the “New Jerusalem” while setting Israel up for a fall.

However, other Jews might be misled by this false messiah; a Germanic governor, the “Great King” claiming descent from the Royal House of David. After all, isn’t a scion of King David destined to rule? Yes – but according to the Torah, the Holy Bible – not as a bloody sword and servant of the Catholic Church! To help clear up any confusion, the Great God of the Bible promises to call upon Two Witnesses – in the bold spirit of Elijah – to testify against Europe’s counterfeit kingdom and expose it for what it is: a LIE FROM HELL!

The accursed UN Resolution 181 has laid the groundwork for the fulfillment of many prophecies! It stretches the mark of the Crusader-Kingdom’s borders to include 100 square miles around Jerusalem. We can expect such an area to be flooded with peacekeeping troops – “an army of peace.” The Bible calls the bluff of the Beast’s buffer zone and forewarns it signals Jerusalem’s attack (Luke 21:20).

We should watch for a string of events – rigged by Germany and the Jesuits (who control Europe) – to gear up for a European onslaught! The Jerusalem theater of war is being prepared right now as Germany and the Vatican push for a bloody “Palestinian” state! They plan on wiping Israel’s God-given name off the map! (Ps. 83).

This evil European intrigue knows full well that such a state of chaos and confusion will destabilize the region! That’s exactly what they want! Europe plans on riding in on their white horse as the Savior – disguised as “peacekeepers” to prevent WWIII. They’ll rush to the scene and appear as “mediators” to stop the madness. However, their white horse is a Trojan Horse that will shock and betray both Arab and Jew!

To invite the Europeans into the Middle East is an invitation for disaster! Their white horse will turn blood red when the wild beast tramples Jerusalem! Europe’s new crusade will forcibly impose their German mark, the Vatican’s false vision of peace, upon the Middle East! Fatima’s folly will engulf the world with nuclear flames! The marionettes of Mariolatry (wolves in sheep’s clothing) will be held responsible for such a holocaust! The Two Witnesses will take the stand in Jerusalem before a world court to condemn them! (Micah 6:2).

The European combine – driven by Germany – is about to thresh the nations! They are on an unholy mission to fulfill their false religion. Their self-righteous and misguided zeal will deal harshly with all who dare oppose their heresy and hypocrisy! Ironically, Jerusalem is the threshing floor that will eventually blow them away! (Micah 4:12). The real Jesus (Yashua in Hebrew) will soon make the Catholic chaff history! The God of Israel will rebuke them from His holy mountain, the Temple Mount – and grab the Beast and False Prophet by the scruffs of their neck and throw them into the Lake of Fire! (Dan. 2:35). The Holy One of Israel will purify the Earth of their evil presence and rid Jerusalem of their Roman occupation! (Malachi 3:3).

Before this wondrous Jubilee celebration, making null and void every asinine agreement and treacherous treaty, announced by the Two Witnesses: coveted Jerusalem will be “established as a corpus separatum (separate body) under a special international regime and shall be administered by the United Nations.” In other words, the Crusader-Kingdom of Jerusalem will have been restored! With European royals who hail from the House of David to boot! They’ll have ripped out and stolen the heart of Israel (Jerusalem) for their occult purposes! They’ll have seized the coveted crown jewel (the Temple Mount) to adorn their delusion and mount their offensive!

The accursed UN Resolution 181 enables the “Governor” of Jerusalem, who is exposed as a Beast, to seize emergency powers in the event of any threat, real or imagined, as he deems necessary. How convenient! All he has to do is create a crisis! This sets the stage for Jerusalem’s Crusader-King to become a DICTATOR!

This Dictator will be given a free hand to break bones under Security measures (Section 4): To keep law and order within the City, with focus on the holy sites, the Governor “shall organize a special police force; the members of which shall be recruited outside of Palestine (European Rapid Deployment Force). The Governor shall be empowered to (spend whatever is)necessary for the maintenance of this force”.

Jerusalem’s Governor-Dictator can make or break his own rules! Basically, under the cloak of protection/security clause, a serious security breach, the governor can become a virtual dictator if he feels his administration is hampered or threatened; he can veto any bills that he considers inconsistent with his paranoid sense of security. He’s offered the powers of darkness, the kingdoms of this world, by exerting his “Special powers of the Governor in respect of the Holy Places in the City and in any part of Palestine. The protection of the Holy Places located in the City of Jerusalem shall be a special concern of the Governor; The Governor shall be empowered to make decision on the basis of existing rights in cases of (religious) disputes he may be assisted by a consultative council of representatives of different denominations (or he may not!).”

In other words, this Governor-Dictator – in his hour of darkness – can do what he wants, whenever and wherever he wants, not only in Jerusalem but throughout the Holy Land, with special emphasis on religious issues and sacred sites! The Devil stays focused whether or not God’s People do: He knows the great and holy importance of Jerusalem to God and His Prophets. Jerusalem is the bottom line of any “peace process.” It bears God’s own signature. Satan fought to seize God’s throne in Heaven and now he’s after his seat on Earth: Jerusalem’s Temple Mount!

The Governor-Dictator of Jerusalem will closely monitor and control freedom of worship and freedom of access: UN Resolution 181, Chapter 2: Religious and Minority Rights (1) reveals that “Freedom of conscience and the free exercise of all forms of worship, subject only to the maintenance of public order and morals, shall be ensured to all” – in other words, if militant Muslims threaten to riot or wage war when Christian-Zionists or Jews are finally free to worship upon the Temple Mount, such religious liberty – for “maintenance of public order” will be DENIED! The sacrifices (soon to start) will be forcibly stopped!

The Governor-Beast power, his administration from Hell, is supposed to last for an initial trial of ten years. (The Nazi Reich lasted for twelve). History warns that “absolute power absolutely corrupts.” Who is so foolish to believe that someone with such sweeping powers would relinquish self-control? The Nazi March of Folly won’t stop on its own accord, especially when Jerusalem’s dictator can declare a state of emergency and slam the door shut for dissent, case closed, fate sealed. The Bible reveals the worst of it will last three and a half years, during which time some will receive shelter from the Storm, a safe haven from the Holocaust (Isa. 26:20, Rev. 12:14).

The Two Witnesses will be offered divine immunity (during God’s witness protection program of three and a half years) to enable them to bluntly reveal the dark secrets that hide behide the Vatican’s veil (Isa. 47). They’ll speak the plain truth, an outspoken message with miracles, and then God will permit their murder (Rev. 11:7). God will not permit anyone to touch them – his anointed – until after they’ve had ample opportunity to plead their case before the nations (Ps. 105:15). Then after three and a half days they’ll be back with a vengeance! Their earth-shaking resurrection to mortal life will be in full view of a captive audience who will watch their flight departure to join the chosen few waiting (in the wings of the wilderness) for the imminent arrival of our King – the real Jesus Christ! (Rev. 11:11).

In summary, the brute Beast and False Prophet (a counterfeit Elijah who will promote and induct the false messiah/governor into office) will soon take center-stage. However, the Two Witnesses will shine the spotlight on these mortal men and expose the wannabe divine “emperor has no clothes” (Rev. 13:18).

UN Resolution 181 is the blueprint of the Beast! It reveals its evil intentions like Hitler’s Mein Kampf exposed his warped will for the whole world to read and heed – if only they had. It is Europe’s Final Solution for Jerusalem, Israel and the Middle East.

Germany and the Vatican push for a prickly “Palestinian” state since they know they can enter the great divide, the Great Rift, with the “Great King” when both parties demand Jerualem for their own and possess it; they intend to ride the wave of the “Palestinian” state with the Vatican crest! They’ll use this Resolution as a ruse to enter the breach and consolidate their hold! Then they’ll abruptly dismiss with it (having seized dictatorial powers) and bare their poisonous, ugly fangs!

The Beast-Dictator will overwhelm all mankind, yet target the Anglo-Saxon Israelites and Jews to bear the brunt of his wrath. His nuclear scourge will crucify and behead our position as “leader of the free world.” This mystic “Governor” of Jerusalem’s conjured Kingdom (summoned from the abyss of Catholic history) will command EUROPE’S NEW CRUSADE with an unimaginable fury. His unheard of hatred, barbaric hostility and primitive blood-lust will jolt even the jaded! The dark powers of the Beast know that this is their last chance, the last round, before the coming of the Heavenly King of the Jews, the Holy One of Israel!

The Two Witnesses will soon rise and shine in a world of darkness (Isa. 60:1). These two prophets – one in mind and purpose in the spirit of Elijah – will prepare the way for the brilliant descent of our God-King from the sky, not from Europe or the earth (Dan. 7:13). The Two Witnesses will herald the coming of the legitimate heir to King David’s Throne in Jerusalem who will destroy the bastard from Babylon! The abominable blueprint of the beast will be history and the Torah will show us the way, as we worship in the Royal “House of Prayer for all nations!”
