"WHAT I BELIEVE"

WHAT I BELIEVE IS TRUE

WARNING!.......... I believe the Holy Bible is the inerrant Word of God and the FINAL authority on EVERYTHING including Science! Lots of people don't know this but the Book of Genesis , in original Hebrew is phylogenetic...it proves that Darwinian Natural Selection is the "Finger of God" and if you can prove how Creation occurred...you logically prove there is a "Force" behind that Creation which is God! Simple case of "Cause and Effect", the basis of REALITY! Atheists think Darwinism is their "Bible" which is hysterical because it proves the opposite of what they believe. This sad perception is entirely the fault of religion (ALL OF THEM!) rejecting one of God's greatest "gifts"......the Scientific method, not atheists "jamming" lies down our throats! I taught Biology for 33 years in high school and an off campus freshmen Biology course called Project Advance Biology for Syracuse University. Obviously, I taught Darwinian Natural Selection but I had no clue that the Book of Genesis verifies this Truth.....that was until I met an Orthodox Jewish Biology teacher from Brooklyn Tech when I attended CCNY back in 1969. He revealed to me the phylogenetic nature of Creation in the Torah. He explained how translations from the original ancient Hebrew unfortunately reduced the clarity present in the original Hebrew. That encounter with that teacher planted the seeds that started my Scientific Spiritual Journey.

One may ask if I am a Christian. Interesting question! Well...I am a Catholic and I do accept Transubstantiation (conversion of bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ) and Apostolic Authority on the Gospel ONLY. (Many Fundamental Christians would immediately disqualify me as being a Christian on that fact alone!) I reject just about everything else in Catholicism, especially manditory celibacy for priests but I absolutely do except the "special" state of Mary..the Mother of Jesus. (Protestants sure miss the "boat" on that one!) I suspect many Catholics think I may be nuts but I know the late Monsignor Corrado Balducci and Pope John Paul II would know I am not! I don't bye into Christianity the way most people think about it. I am NOT a Religious person or Spiritual in any way BECAUSE I am a "purest" and "realist." I believe the supernatural is the undiscovered natural....for me...the ONLY difference between the physical and spiritual is FREQUENCY of the tiny vibrating Strings of the Superstring Theory in Quantum Mechanics. I believe the higher frequency states manifest the unconditional Love of God and Jesus revealed this awesome Truth on the Cross of Calvary. I believe Jesus is God Incarnate and that He has reveled that God lives and works through His Creation and His Laws of the physical and "spiritual." I believe Jesus did die on the Cross to redeem us and restore us to the Kingdom of God but that He also FREES US FROM ALL RELIGIONS INCLUDING CHRISTIANITY!

ALL religions are based on God being "external" to His Creation.....a kind of "supernatural prison” man has made for Him. (Oh the arrogance and folly of men!) God's laws are so perfect he does not need "cheap parlor tricks" to reveal He is God. He revealed He is God by dieing on the Cross and rising from the Dead to free us!!!! AND that revelation also proves that He LOVES unconditionally. When a person repents and accepts this Truth he becomes a "Child of God" and the fruits of this transformation is good character and works as St. James reveals in his epistle. It is IMPOSSIBLE to "earn" this Love God offers. If you could then Jesus died in vain. I believe God rejects no one…..it is man who rejects God. One may say that this concept of God is impersonal and devoid of "miracles". Far from it……. Jesus dieing on that "Old Rugged Cross" for all of us is infinitely far from being impersonal and there are only 2 types of miracles...those that we have no explanation for and those that we do!. When that helicopter comes and rescues you from a flood or that surgeon saves your life with his skill......BOTH are "miracles" because since God is "everywhere" and He "works" through His Creation, He is obviously behind ALL "miracles!"

I believe that the battle of good vs evil is not Islam against Judaism and Christianity or any "other infidel" religion. It is not Socialists and Communists against Capitalists or the arrogant and selfish "elite" against the lowly masses...Humans are just pawns in this "Cosmic" battle being played out on our little planet. It is a very real battle described by St. Paul to the Church at Ephesus in Ephesians 6:12....."For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms"

I believe that 1/3 of the Kingdom of God rebelled against God and the Kingdom.... (which being a "Trekki" I affectionately call the Intergalactic Federation of Star Nations.)....by "being gods" instead of accepting the "Collective God." (Gospel according to George Lucas.."May the Force be with you!") This was a calculated risk of the Universal Law of Free Will. I believe these are the Demons of the Bible…..the Extraterrestrials that were exiled to the Alpha Quadrant of this Galaxy. (Angels are the 2/3 that remained with God....our "Cosmic brothers and sisters.") These “rebels” have power to influence man by illusion. Being a Biologist I am forced to reject the concept of "re-incarnation" on the basis of God's Mendelian Laws of Genetics and Hebrews 9:27 ( Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, ) is a Scriptural "fringe benefit" of my belief. I believe this insidious illusion is the root of intentional abortion along with human selfishness…. and I am CONVINCED that the "evidence" of re-incarnation is an "illusion" created by the 1/3 "rebels" of the Kingdom ala' the Telosians of Telos IV of Star Trek fame. Re-incarnation is an insult to the Sacrifice made by Jesus on the Cross of Calvary and frankly is a blatant violation of the Law of Free Will.

I am absolutely convinced we are the generation that will see the Second Coming of Christ and the Restoration of Earth to the Kingdom (Federation). Jesus Himself gave us the ultimate sign of His imminent return.......... the fulfillment of the "Fig Tree Prophecy" on May 14, 1948..which was the Restoration of Israel after 2453 years in exile and the restoration of Jerusalem on June 10, 1967. The “Fig Tree” is the symbolic reference to Israel in the Old Testament. So what’s the big deal about Israel? They going to be saved by the Law? God forbid…. even the Jew must and WILL accept Jesus as all humans must. One thing is certain, however, it’s not just about the Jews retuning to their “homeland.” Israel is really about the Second Coming because Israel has to exist because Jesus will return as King of Kings and Lord of Lords to Reign with the Saints from His ancestor King David's Throne in JERUSALEM, ISRAEL!!! This makes May 14, 1948 the most significant date in history.

Jesus warned that just before He returns we won’t just have wars and rumors of wars and all kinds of political and environmental upheaval like in Noah’s day. He said there would be great apostasies from the Truth of the Gospel. Islam, Mormonism, Jehovah Witness and New Age are not the most serious of these. The most dangerous apostasy is within main stream Christianity itself. This apostasy is the “bad fruit” of hatred of the Jew.…..the ultimate anti-Semitism. It is called Preterism or “Replacement Theology” and teaches the abomination that Israel is the Church and that the Prophecies of the Book of Revelation were all fulfilled in 70 AD with the destruction of Israel by the Roman Empire. Basically….it is a theology identical to the New Age movement using “Jesus” as the prophet instead of oneself as the New Agers do.

I also suspect that the controversial issue of the “Rapture” (evacuation of the faithful) of the Church BEFORE the Tribulation of Israel and WWIII (Armageddon) is the correct interpretation of 1 Thessalonians 4:16 I believe we will be evacuated from earth prior to obama taking over the world and his false 7 year peace treaty with Israel which is broken in 42 months. (YES..I strongly suspect he is the anti-Christ) BTW...May 23, 2010 next week. might be evacuation day..”The Final Pentecost.”…..we shall soon see!!!! (Why the 23rd….weird situation……..first time in history the Jewish Pentecost and Christian Pentecost fall on the same day IF you calculate it correctly. Just co-incidence? Not sure if the Jews intentionally miscalculated it because they moved it to May 19th!) If the Church is still here on the 24th….I’ll edit this!

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 6For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever”

A curiosity …. 42 months from June 21, 2009..Father’s Day to December 21, 2012 is exactly 42 months. Co-incidence again? Our Father is God after all! Come quickly Lord Jesus (Revelation 22:20)

THE FINAL PENTECOST

To all my family and friends who know I am already nuts!

THE FINAL PENTECOST…..May 23, 2010?

The alarming title I have chosen could be temporary. We will know very soon! I pray it is temporary but my heart is perplexed….. so I write. Maybe I’m just a paranoiac nut case! In order to understand how “crazy” I am I must give some Bible background and my position on the Holy Bible. My “Bottom Line” follows…….

THE BOTTOM LINE

I am CONVINCED that “The Holy Bible” is the inerrant Word of God and FINAL authority over ALL Prophecy Only when the Scriptures are analyzed through the "Gift" of the Scientific Method are the mysteries of the Bible revealed. Critics of the Bible say it is contradictory and contais over 5,000 errors! This is ABSOLUTELY true when it is interpreted literally as the Protestant Fundamentalists do and the "symbolic" interpretations of modern Theologians do. (Especially Catholic Theologians and Liberal Protestants)

The Quran, Book of Mormon, Mary Baker Eddy's essays, Tibetan Book of Dead, The Vedic verses, The Buddha, Taze Russel's essay's, White's essays, L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics, Oprah Winfrey's gospel, , Deepak Chopra's "secret", John Travolta's REVOLTAS.....( and yes...Native American (North ans South) ETC.....are ALL false. Only one Man came to Earth with TRUTH! He came to FREE us from ALL religions! AND He is the ONLY one who died for our transgressions and was Resurrected from the Dead AND IS ABOUT TO RETURN AND RESTORE EARTH TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. .....Yeshua Ben Joseph.....the Christ of God. (Jesus in Greek)...John 14:6 “I am the Way the Truth and the Life….NO ONE comes to the Father except through Me.” ) If I didn’t believe the religious writings outside of the Bible were apostasy…...I’d be a miserable hypocrite. I’m not a religious person nor Spiritual in the sense of religion. I am a REALIST and Jesus is VERY REAL! Why have a belief system if it is not REAL? That would be “blind faith” which is nothing more than a “spiritual placebo.” As Karl Marx said…”religion is the opiate of the people.” The difference between the REAL Jesus and religion is FREE WILL…….it is your choice to accept this TRUTH or reject it.

Yes.....many people have said Jesus is about to return in past generations but the question is.."what's different today?" Well....two major dates and possibly 2 others I'm not clear about! The definite dates are May 14, 1948....the restoration of Israel after 2534 years...the fulfillment of the "Fig Tree4 Prophecy" and June 10, 1967.....the restoration of Jerusalem. (obama knows what he is doing...he MUST give Jerusalem back to the Muslims or "his" kingdom will end and he knows it!. Poor pathetic idiot has no clue that Biblical Prophecy CANNOT be changed!) Why are these dates critical?......Because the Bible is very clear that Jesus returns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords and Reign's FROM HIS ANCESTOR KING DAVID'S THRONE IN JERUSALEM, ISRAEL! There was no "Israel" until 1948!!!! (so much for Mayan "end of the world" illusions!......BUT ...that Mayan date of December 21, 2012, the Winter Solstice, is mysterious and leads me to a date that I am not clear about!

The date in question is June 21, 2009. the Summer Solstice I sure would like to know what obama did on that day besides get cards from his kids because it was also FATHER'S DAY which won't fall on the Summer Solstice again until 2017. (Yepper....just call me "Conspiracy Dave!" SO what's the BIG deal? According to the Biblical Prophets....(Isaiah, Ezechiel, Joel , Malachi, Joshua, Zephaniah, Zecharia, Daniel etc) and St. John's Revelation in the New Testament of the Holy Bible......in the "end times" a World Leader will rise that offers peace to the world by creating a 7 year Treaty with Islam and Israel. (obama was "tested" as a possible leader during his campaign for President of the US in Germany! Henry Kissinger recently revealed at a Washington Press Club that obama is being "groomed" to be this leader of the Novus Ordo Seclorum.......New World Order) Scripture reveals that this Peace Treaty will be broken 42 months into it's duration. The odd thing is that 42 months from June 21, 2009 to December 21. 2012 is exactly 42 months. Co-incidence? Weird for sure...which is why I want to know what obama was doing that day!! I wonder if that was day he told the Muslims that they would be given back Jerusalem? Hmmmm? What does happen on 12/21/12? Maybe nothing. (BTW...while we were all concerned about obamacare, oil rig disasters, Times Square bombs and illegal immigration etc ....his " gal" Hilliary Clinton signed a "gun control treaty with the UN" and whether we want to believe it or not, THEY ARE NOT FINISHED WITH GUN CONTROL!)

What is this 42 months break of peace? Again...revealed by the Prophets... Russia invades Israel and so starts WWIII or

what Scripture calls Armageddon. (Ezechiel calls it the war of the end times....when Gog, Magog, Meschack, Tubol and Rus...all ancient names of cities in today's Russia come against God's people.....Israel...which didn't exist until 1948) Sounds like the "end of the world" eh? The question is "what is meant by the end of the world?" Again...the Prophet Isaiah says "it is a world with out end" and others reveal Jesus returns and put's an end to the WWIII by establishing His Kingdom on Earth with the World Capital in Jerusalem. Is Christianity just religious Faith in a Kingdom in our hearts or is this Biblical stuff true as implied by the Lord's Prayer..."Thy Kingdom Come Thy Will be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven?" Jesus said..."The meek shall inherit the Earth"....why would He say that if there is no Earth left? No...the world doesn't end...the world order ends! Thank God!!!!

The second date I question is May 23rd, 2010. The weird thing about this date is that it's the FIRST TIME IN HISTORY that the Christian Pentecost falls on the same date as the Jewish Pentecost. (50 days after Easter for Christians and 50 days after Passover for Jews.) However...for some reason...the Jews date has been moved to Wednesday, May 19th!!! Now that is weird! The claim is it was not moved...it was calculated. Well....somebodies up to something because following Biblical Laws...it is impossible for the Jewish Pentecost to be the 19th...it comes out the 23rd!!! OK..what's up, Doc? I have no clue except the following "way out" explanation and it could just be another CO-INCEDENCE...........I need to digress a bit with some background to to explain this "way out" idea. If my "way out idea" is TRUE....."the meek are about to inherit the Earth!"

OK....HERE GOES........there are 3 basic views of Christian Eschatology.....the "end times." (there are others as well that are off the wall) One is Preterism (amillennialism) that says most Scripture including Revelation was fulfilled by 70 AD when Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans. They believe the Church..the Body of Christ is Israel. The Kingdom of God will be restored when everyone accepts the teachings of Jesus but that Jesus does not actually return. This premise is identical to Paganism and New Age. The difference is instead of accepting Jesus we accept our own "god character" and are thusly "enlightened." They claim we only need 51% of the world's population to bring about this transition of a New World Order. (good luck with that Oprah with Islam believing all the world MUST fall under Sharia Law in order for the Kingdom to form ) BTW...there is also the secular political view of the future Kingdom......it's called COMMUNISM under a one world leader that the Bible rightly defines as the "anti-Christ." They have illusions of grandeur and are in for a surprise!

The second view is post-millenialism. They believe Jesus will return to Reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords but that His Church will suffer under the anti-Christ and New World Order....what the Bible calls the Tribulation of Israel. (still need Israel to exist for this) We will "go through" Armageddon! and see Jesus return to put end to it. (I'm not sure all post-millennials believe He Reigns on Earth from Jerusalem...there are several different types and frankly I think it's all illusion. They say Jerusalem comes down from "Heaven" as a floating city....a literal interpretation of St. John's Revelation. Some think we all go to "Heaven" what ever that's suppose to mean. (Muslim men all go to "Heaven" and get 72 virgins in 72 rooms in 72 mansions if they help Allah kill Jews and Christians...the INFIDEL! ....BTW...that's 373,248 virgins....oy vey!) Both of these views of Christianity are based on anti-Semitism and the Bible clearly reveals this apostasy.

Scientific interpretation of Scripture reveals that Jesus returns to Earth exactly the same "way" His Disciples saw Him leave! Two Angels appeared to the Disciples and told them this TRUTH as they watched Jesus disappear into a "cloud." Being as whacky as I am.....the "Scientific interpretation is simple...Jesus was taken up via a "tractor beam" into a Mother Ship (dimensional craft) that was "hidden" by cloud formation caused by condensation of water vapor generated by the intense energy fields associated with dimensional propulsion. There are many examples of this condensation throughout Scripture. ie: The Day of the Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan, The Day Saul got his name changed to St. Paul on his way to Damascus, Syria to execute some Christians.) AND...BTW that New City of Jerusalem? I AM CONVINCED it is the Craft returning Jesus to Earth ala' "Close Encounters of a Third Kind." Hey I'm a "Trekki" and as a result I affectionately refer to the Kingdom of God as "The Intergalactic Federation of Star Nations." Yes..the Angels are our Cosmic brothers and sisters and the 1/3rd bad ones that rebelled against the Kingdom millions of years ago and were exiled to this Solar System and Galaxy are the Demons of the Bible. Who do you think has been "running" this planet anyway by influencing our governments. corporations, banks and religions? (Ephesians 6:12 "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."

(Hmmm...The old TV series X-Files may have been closer to reality than we think...and the "elite" that does control the world are nothing but a bunch of "Uncle Toms."

OK..the third basic interpretation, PRE-MILLENIALISM, I believe is the TRUTH and In some ways I wish it weren't because I wanted to watch my grand kids and great grandkids grow up! But then again......maybe I will....I mean the restoration of Earth to God's Kingdom may allow that because Scripture says "The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling [a] together; and a little child will lead them." (Isaiah 11:6) This version of Christianity believes in a literal return of Jesus to Reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. It is not very popular because it is pro-Israel. The world believes Israel are the bad guys in the Middle East crisis and the Muslim Palestinians are the victims. Guess it depends what side your on, eh? Frankly..I don't think Israel is about Jews and Judaism.......it is about the Kingdom of God soon to be restored on Earth. John 14:6 applies to ALL humans..PERIOD! "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." I don't spin or equivocate on "no one" like Democrats do! (of course Republicans do it now too!) Yes....I am convinced that Jerusalem, Israel is the Capital of the Coming Kingdom of God on Earth!

Another "blessed hope" Scripture is also found in Isaiah 2:4....... "He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore." This was fulfilled in 70AD? If you believe that..I'll have whatever your "smokin' !"

Pre-millenialism is based on ONE word in the Bible..a word that exists only in Catholic Bibles. This is Ironic in that the majority of Pre-millenialists are Protestant Evangelicals! That word of controversy is "Rapture" from the Latin "Rapiomur" meaning "taken out of." The word is found in the Latin Vulgate translated by St. Jerome. I find it ironic that Catholic teaching avoids "Rapture" yet is very consistent with saying the world will not end as evident in their prayer... "Glory Be to the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit.....As it was in the Beginning , Is , Now and Ever shall be, World without End, Amen!" (BTW....the word WAS in the first printing of the King James Bible but the anti-Semites had it removed and no longer is in any Protestant Bibles.) The Scripture that divides Pre-millenialists (like me) from all other Christian groups is found in 1 Thessalonians.....................

1 Thesslonians 4:16-18

16"For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18Therefore encourage each other with these words."

There's those "clouds" again! However...the Preterists say this happened back in 70 AD and Post-millenialists say this IS the Second coming of Christ because He Reigns from the Jerusalem in the sky! (maybe we should offer Him the International Space Station for His base of operations and save all that money for the "New Jerusalem!" ) Hmmmm....how do they get around Jesus feet hitting the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, Israel when He returns with the Saints. After all..they believe "and so we will be with the Lord forever" .....in a "floating city?" AND.....since when was King David's throne located in a "New Jerusalem" floating in the sky? Literal and symbolic interpretation of Scriopture creates illusion...Scientific interpretation reveals TRUTH! (The nay sayers will quote Isaiah saying "God's ways are above man's carnal knowledge." I agree with them, HOWEVER, I don't think Isaiah was talkin' Science knowledge. I suspect he was referring to God's morality and holiness, compassion, forgiveness and love. The reason I say Science is a "Gift" of God is because we are Created in God's "image" and when the Scientific Method is practiced without bias...."IT ALWAYS RESULTS IN TRUTH." Human Philosophy and Theology is based on what humans think and since men are sinners, the apparent TRUTH can be illusion.

So...what is the meaning of 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18? I am CONVINCED it means that Jesus raises the "dead in Christ" and the pre-Christ righteous first and then evacuates the living and "Transfigures" (frequency shift....ala' Superstring Theory) all three groups and "teleports" them to "Heaven" which I suspect are "dimensional rescue craft" because of those "pesky" clouds!!! ("Beam Me Up Scotty!") The reason why my interpretation of the Bible, which I call "Scientific Spirituality" seems so far fetched is because ALL religions are based on the "Supernatural." I suspect The Amazing Kreskin was right...."The Supernatural is the Undiscovered Natural" and the recent revelation of "Superstrings" sure seems to support the idea! (Another way of saying this is my God doesn't need "cheap parlor tricks" to show He is God. God dwells within and works through His Creation and He has no need to work outside of His Physical and Spiritual Laws BECAUSE THEY ARE HIS LAWS! One of the MOST contentious of all issues in the Christian religion is Darwinian Natural Selection. Believers reject it as atheism and atheists embrace it as proof of their belief. Ironically the opposite is true .....it is the "Finger of God!" Discovering the mechanism of Creation proves the "Force" behind it. Ha! and people say there is no Satan! Silly people!

Now....what the heck is my "way out idea " about May 23rd? I am wondering if it may be the time of the Rapture? The Bible says no one knows when Jesus returns to Earth in Jerusalem, Israel but the Bible is silent about when Rapture occurs. The only thing we know is it happens some time before the leader of the New World Order comes to power. As much as I am excited about the return of Jesus and the restoration of Earth to the Kingdom of God, I am also very apprehensive because it sure will be weird to experience this transition and like I said.....I'm anxious to see my grand kids grow up! (as I said earlier...we might get both!) Why May 23rd? Is it just co-incidence that the Christian Pentecost and the Jewish are the same inspite of the apparent intentional miscalculation by the Jews? We shall soon see! If Rapture occurs on the 23rd, who gets "beamed out?" Well....ANY one who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus and repents in their HEART will be rescued. What about those who don't know who Jesus is? What about innocent children? What about animals? Frankly....that's way above my pay grade and I'm sure the Lord has it all figured out! BTW... If the Post -millennialists are correct.....as Sean Hannity likes to say (quoting Jesus) "Do not let your heart be troubled" ....we are more than victors in Christ and He will bring us through it BUT it won't be pretty! The plan of the 10 State New World Order is to microchip RFIDS in all world citizens by 2017 in order to buy and sell and work etc. (Mark of Beast 666) BUT.....Scripture says if we do take the "Mark of the Beast" we will be lost. Damn scary stuff for sure but keep your mind and heart on the Cross of Jesus..He will pull us through!

If I'm right about the 23rd..."see ya’ll up in the clouds!" Frankly...I'm praying about it because I am perplexed beyond understanding!!! Believe me! If Pre-millenialism is not true..I sure hope the Preterists are.....going through the Tribulation under the New World Order is not "gonna be a picnic!"

"He who testifies to these things says, 'Yes, I am coming soon.' Amen, Come quickly, Lord Jesus!" (Revelation 22:20)

God's Blessings on all.......David..The Doubting Thomas

That's because God Himself intervened to free us from ALL religions! It's simple logic...If the Bible is true...the others can't be. I have been reading some of the Koran lately and it appears to be mostly plagiarism of the Bible. Obviously the Bible is plagiarism of older texts.....that is a given because Biblio means LIBRARY..the Bible is NOT a book like other "Sacred writings"...it is an anthology of specific Sacred writings. The key is fulfilled Prophecy.

If I accepted other Sacred books ala' Oprah Winfrey and Deepak Chopra.....I'd be a hypocrite because if I claim the Bible is the only Word of God...and I do....then John 14:6 must be true and if I reject that then I am a hypocrite. Free Will allows one to choose. My approach to the Spiritual is different than the majority of religions because I believe there is no such thing as the supernatural. I recognize the existence of evil and I believe this evil manipulates our reality with illusions like re-incarnation instead of the so called "secret" that says we are the ones who manipulate. When we manipulate reality outside of the Collective God ...we become as gods. Jesus reveals the TRUE collective God by His Sacrifice on the Cross of Calvary. No other prophet has ever done that. This is why I say Jesus frees man not just from himself but from all illusions especially those propagated by religion and Christianity itself being the worst offender!

Doubting Thomas

Second Coming

I was sharing the “hope” we have in Christ Jesus with a dear friend of mine who is very troubled by the political and environmental conditions of the world and she is fearful of what will happen to her children and loved ones. I was deeply troubled by her response to my e-mail of “hope.”

My friend’s response………

“How do u know all these things? So much I cannot comprehend, I feel like I've missed the boat. I am sitting here wondering how will I explain my ignorance to Christ. I am perplexed over all I see and hear in the media and yes afraid of what is to come. My faith is not shaken, however. I would rather my children and grandchildren were to grow up and live peacefully and blissfully in the new kingdom than what this world has to offer presently. The state of world affairs is deteriorating at a rapid pace and the earth is rebelling with every quake and flood. You may be right. (the imminent return of Jesus) I hope to walk with you through the great tribulation into the arms of the almighty, in that case!”

I was inspired to write the following response………

OH...you will be..... Trust me.....YOU WILL.....I'm no brain, BELIEVE ME....just a forgiven sinner. How do I know?…..I just read a lot…..MOSTLY the Bible which reveals our "Blessed Hope" and Quantum Physics which opened up the TRUTH of the Bible for me. (I also try to keep up with Biology since I taught it 33 years, especially Recombinant DNA) The computer and the gift of the internet has allowed me to read a learn so much. I use my computer (Dell laptop hand me down from my daughter!) for 8 things only...Bible research, Science research, News, writing and answering e-mails to and from friends and family, writing about my "Scientific Spirituality" and trying to put them on my blogs, Ham Radio for "slow scan TV" AND my "trumpet book" every Wednesday night at McNamara's in Camillus, NY in the “Rhythmaires Big Band” that I play in. (I bring my laptop and put it right on my music stand and click up my tunes as I play...no paper music!.....just like the guys who play in the Brian Setzer Band! AND.......I DON’T do Face Book, Twitter or any computer games! I'll answer an IM once in awhile but that's it!

THE KEYS……

The Keys to the Kingdom of Jesus is simply a "pure and humble heart." What is and who has a "pure and humble heart?"…….. Sinners who know we are “nothing” without the Blood of Christ! Sinners who accept this TRUTH and know they don't deserve the promises of Jesus but will receive them because He loved us so much He willingly went to the Cross of Calvary to "purchase" us with His Precious Blood. Trust me....Jesus will judge our hearts......NOT our intelligence or accomplishments, EXCEPT the ones where we have helped others instead of ourselves. The only people who have to worry are those who think Jesus is a severe judge who will reject us unless we "tow the mark." This is a lie exposed by the Lord Himself in Matthew 11:29-30 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

Jesus is a severe judge ONLY to those who are not “pure and humble of heart. We cannot "earn" salvation...we can only accept it with humility and thanksgiving and try with all our heart to serve each other and do good. So many do not understand who Jesus is and the result is we think we must show Jesus we are "worthy" of salvation......... THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE! ALL religions, sadly, including Catholic and Protestant Christianity, have used this "worthiness" issue to create guilt which causes dependency on the Church leaders to "take care of our souls" and in turn allows the Church to have control and power over the people. Thank God the Communists chose atheism as it's base or they would have conquered the world! (Thanks Karl Marx for calling religion "opium" and therefore undesirable for Communism!)

I wonder why our Church does not teach the most important "hope" of all...the return of our Lord Jesus to Earth and restoration of the Kingdom? Main stream Christianity including Catholicism avoids this issue? Evangelicals seem to be the only Christians "watching for the signs" , as the Bible commands, of the Second Coming. What is the most critical "SIGN" of Christ's imminent return besides the "shaky" political and environmental world conditions Prophesied in the Bible ...."as it was in the day's of Noah, so it will be at the Coming of the Son of Man?" (Matthew 24:27, Luke 17:26) Jesus Himself gave the "signs" and THE critical SIGN to His Disciples in the parable of the Fig Tree in the in the Gospel of Mark Chapter 13.........READ ALL OF MARK 13 FOR A DISCRIPTION OF.THE PROPHESIED CONDITIONS OF THE END TIMES. (ALSO MATHEW 24) AND PLEASE.......don't fall for those who say all this was fulfilled in 70 AD..PLEASE!

Mark 13:3-4

3 "As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John and Andrew asked him privately, 4"Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?"

Mark 13:28-35

28"Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.29Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it is near, right at the door. 30I tell you the truth, this generation[a]will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.31Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. (NAY SAYERS WILL TELL YOU JESUS MEANT HIS GENERATION. No way can you logically conclude that after reading ALL of Mark 13!)

How many Christians are even aware of the "Fig Tree Prophecy" of Jesus let alone understand it? It is simply avoided by most denominations including Catholicism. I believe anti-Semitism is the reason for this. The Jews and Israel have always been considered to be the "vermin of the planet" and Gentiles have tried to exterminate them from Earth for 5, 000 years and if Iran's Ahmadinejad gets the "nuke"...they might succeed! (NOT!) What does this Fig Tree have to do with Israel? All through the Old Testament Israel is symbolically referred to as the Fig Tree and remember..Israel as a free Nation did not exist at the time of Jesus' Ministry, it was occupied by the Roman Empire so this Prophecy is a future event...and not 70 AD or 132 AD when Emperor Hadrian of Rome renamed the land of Israel Palestine! The problem as I see it is the world thinks Israel is about the Jew. It's NOT..it's about Jesus because Jesus returns to establish the Kingdom of God on Earth sitting on the Throne of His ancestor King David in Jerusalem, Israel. So...the critical SIGN of the Second Coming is May 14, 1948...the restoration of Israel after 2534 years! Now do you see how and why Satan is behind anti-Semitism and stirs up anti-Zionism and anti-Israel. Satan is trying to stop the Kingdom of God from coming to Earth. Well as Einstein said...."The past, present and future is an illusion no matter how persistent" so guess what?.....Satan has already been DEFEATED.....he is a "toothless lion going about devouring souls by illusion"....he has no power unless we give it to him! (I define illusions as ALL religions INCLUDING Christianity and especially New Age and the VERY anti-Christ concept of re-incarnation with a limited pool of souls. I am CONVINCED that re-incarnation is an insidious assault on the Sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross of Calvary and VIOLATES the Law of Free Will! Then why all the "scientific" evidence" of it? Well.....there is NONE. The 1/3 of the Kingdom of God (that being a "Trekki" I affectionately call the Intergalactic Federation oif Star Nations) that was exiled with their leader Lucifer because they chose to be "gods" (calculated risk of the Law of Free Will) rather than remain "in God" are the "Demons" of the Bible and "they" are the "dark forces" described in Ephesians 6:12 that influence the "evil" in our governments, corporations, banks, schools and religions. (I suspect the "elite" that "run" the world are nothing but a bunch of "Uncle Toms" ala' the theme of the old TV series X-Files....and now the new one "V".) If these "Demons" can do all this.....creating the illusion we were some other person in the past is a "piece o' cake!" (ala' the Telosians of Telos IV of Star Trek fame!)

Ephesians 6:12

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."

So ...do not let your heart be troubled...... President Reagan said.."We win, “they” loose!" Whose “they?”…. obviously those who are not “pure of heart.” You can easily tell who they are by their ARROGANCE! This tired old planet could use some "rest" and the "Paradise" under the Kingship of Jesus is "just what the doctor ordered!" Come quickly Lord Jesus....Revelation 22:20

BTW.....I have not lost my Cathoic Faith either and remain dedicated to the Knights of Columbus.....although I do disagree with a lot of what the Church says and does...especially bailing out pervert priests....I remain Catholic because of Transubstantiation and Apostolic Authority on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Canon Law however is man made!
