God expects you to be. It talks of the lifestyle you should be living.
Chapters 22-32 talks of what will take place after the rapture until
the end of the world.
Chapter 33 tells about my vision and why I wrote the book. This
chapter also gives the prophetic date as to when the rapture will

INTRODUCTION

2007
You’ll feel a sense of peace, happiness and rest that would have
otherwise been missing. God promises to bless you just as much if
you set aside one day for Him and work six days than if you worked
seven.
xii
2007
There are things going on in this world that are very important
to your life and the lives or your loved ones. Though most of it you
may not be able to do anything about, it’s still vitally important for
you to know and prepare yourself and your family as best you can.
Be alert. If you are prepared for it, you could be on the edge of
something really spectacular. Those who are not prepared are on the
verge of destruction and tribulation like has never, ever been seen
before on this earth.
Because of the terrible tragedy in New York, we know that any
day could be our last day on earth. Not that we should live in fear,
but you should live your life on a higher level with no regrets. Take
advantage of every day and every moment that God gives you.
When your family and children want to spend time with you and
talk to you, stop what you’re doing and put them first. Don’t be so
engulfed in work and image that you put those things ahead of your
loved ones. Don’t leave this earth without letting your loved ones
know how much they mean to you. A lot of Americans are spoiled.
We take our families, our safety and our freedoms for granted. We
take tomorrow for granted. There is no promise of tomorrow. Give
and share love today while you still can. The only thing that really
matters in life is love, love for God and love for your family. Without
love you have nothing.
I want to start by saying that the basic foundation of every life
is and always will be God. You may have been taught as a child
about God and the Bible, but if you weren’t it’s not too late. You
xiii
2007
must have God in your life helping you and leading you in your
everyday decisions if you are going to survive the approaching trials
that are coming for all of us. And just for clarity sake, THERE IS
ONLY ONE TRUE GOD!! And God only listens to those who come
before Him in the name of Jesus. JESUS CHRIST IS OUR ONLY
CONNECTION TO THE ONE TRUE GOD!! Some people have
told me they talk to God all the time, but after listening to them I
realize they are deceived and they are talking to their own god not
the ONE TRUE ALMIGHTY GOD.
God called me in 1986 to write this book. He instructed me
to tell people how to get saved and accept Jesus as Savior. He has
also given me a warning to share with the world. Along the years,
I would write a few chapters and God would have me put it on the
shelf and wait a while, then take it back down and write some more.
When I received this calling I still needed to learn a lot and mature a
lot before God was ready to trust me to represent Him and be a voice
for Him to use. I still have a lot to learn about God, but I finally
heard God tell me this book is complete. He is ready for me to jump
out in full force to spread this message He has given me. He told
me to get this book out to everyone, because the message inside is
urgent. I am an amateur writer. This book is very simple, elementary
reading and easy to understand. It may seem very repetitive at times,
but that’s because what I am saying is important enough to repeat so
you get it. This is a message from God for all of us, you and I living
in this day and hour. I pray God uses this book to change people’s
lives all over the world. But even if only ONE person receives Jesus
Christ as Savior and gets rapture ready as a result of reading this
book, then it was well worth writing. Please take the time to read
it and give me the opportunity to share this important warning and
information with you. I’m sure it will change your life forever if you
let it. God bless you!

CHAPTER ONE
Cc
15
WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE?
Cc
B efore I can share with you the message God has given me, I
need to start at the beginning to make sure your thinking and
your beliefs are in order.
Do you know without a shadow of a doubt where you came
from? Do you know where this earth and universe came from? Do
you know how everything originated? Have you figured out what
came first, the chicken or the egg?
Every person living has some basis for what they believe to be
right and wrong. What makes you do certain things and what stops
you from doing other things?
In my life, my parents were my example. I come from a long
line of Christians and so does my husband. We run our family, raise
our children, do our business and live daily pretty much the way we
were raised. We were taught right from wrong by the Bible. As chil-
dren, we were sent to church, Sunday school and private Christian
school and that is the way we raised our children and now help raise
our grandchild.
Why are people now days so confused about the basic ques-
tions of life? Why do people act like they are not really sure what
is right and wrong? This present generation is the first ones since
this country was founded that acts confused, unsure, and is living in
sin on a daily basis yet thinks they are doing nothing wrong. Why?
I believe it’s because in the 60’s people started getting into drugs,
and in the 70’s divorce seemed to explode in America. Families fell
17
2007
apart. They stopped going to church and fell away from God. The
separation of church and state began in 1962. We took God out of our
schools and government. Public schools stopped teaching our chil-
dren that God created the world and started teaching them evolution
instead. We removed the Ten Commandments and now absolutely
condemn prayer in government and schools. Children are our future
and we are trying to teach them to live without God. We started
falling away from God as a nation. Oh, yes, we call ourselves, “one
nation under God”, but are we? We forbid people to talk about God
unless one is doing so as part of a Christian organization, and then
the state, government and nation don’t want to have anything to
do with it. In doing this we now have a generation that hears very
little, if anything, about God and never reads the Bible. Everyone is
working so much trying to pay bills that they say they don’t have
time for church or God.
Going to church on Sunday used to be common practice among
the average American family, but it’s not anymore. Going to church
will not save your soul but it helps to go and be reminded what is
good and what is not. Don’t rely on the daily news or your friends
to tell you what’s right or wrong. For sure do not rely on the govern-
ment to tell you what is right and what is wrong. Sin is being accepted
socially and legalized by the government. That does not make it
right. Just because people and the government thinks something is
OK does not make it so. If God and the Bible say it’s wrong, then
it’s wrong. If it was wrong in Jesus’ day, then it is still wrong today.
God does not change His rules. The Bible does not change. Read
Jeremiah 17:5-8 (NCV), “This is what the Lord says: A curse is
place on those who trust other people, who depend on humans
for strength, who have stopped trusting the Lord. They are like
a bush in the desert that grows in a land where no one lives, a
hot and dry land with bad soil. They don’t know about the good
things God can give. But the person that trusts in the Lord will
be blessed. The Lord will show him that He can be trusted. He
will be strong like a tree planted near water that sends its roots
by a stream. It is not afraid when the days are hot. It’s leaves are
always green. It does not worry in a year when no rain comes. It
always produces fruit.”

Mark 9:23 “Jesus said unto him, if thou canst believe, all
things are possible to him that believeth.”

CHAPTER TWO
FAITH

FAITH
Cc
T here is a complete other world that exists that you cannot see.
This other unseen world is the spirit world. It’s here. It’s for
real, but you cannot see it. Faith is believing in something that goes
against your common sense. It is believing in something you cannot
see. Webster’s dictionary describes faith as loyalty, confidence, and
complete trust. We all have faith. God wants us to put our complete
loyalty, trust, and confidence in Him and Him alone. Since no one
alive today has ever seen Jesus or God face to face, then we must
believe in them by faith.
John 20:29, “Blessed are those who have not seen, and
yet have believed.”
Most people today only want to believe in those things they can
see with their natural eyes. We can’t see gravity, but we know it’s
here and it’s powerful and working. Whether we can see it or not,
and whether we believe it or not does not effect the fact that it exists.
And if we try to live as if there is no gravity, then you’ll pay the
consequence of it.
Take God at His word. He is who He says He is. Once again,
after you make that choice in your heart and mind to believe in Him,
no matter what, then He will reveal Himself to you in a way that
removes all doubt from your mind and make Him come alive in
your life.
23
2007
I’ve spoken to some people who said they would believe in God
if they could see Him or if He would do some great miracle for
them. Well He won’t. If He did, it wouldn’t take much faith for you
to believe, would it? Believe in Him first with all your heart, then
He’ll show Himself to you.
The purpose of this book is not to convince you that God exists
and that He is real. I am not going to try to do that. But as a founda-
tion, I am going to give an overview of what the bible says about
faith in God and the beginning of time.
24

25

just calmly take me at my word and consider your rent paid because
you knew I was faithful and reliable.
This is what God wants you to know about Him. He always
keeps His word. He will not let you down. If He said He would
help you in your time of need and trouble then He will. Don’t worry
about it. Just relax.
I know it is hard at first, because we can not see God or hear an
audible voice, all we have is His written word and the Spirit of God
speaking to us in our spirit. But that’s all we need. He’s just waiting
for us to call on him and believe in Him. He won’t let you down. If
He gave His word, He will do it because He can’t lie. It’s not possible
for Him to lie. He doesn’t play games with you and tease you. That’s
not God, that’s not His nature. Anything in this world you may need,
there is a promise in the word of God that relates to it.
We cannot receive anything from God without faith. God does
not respond to us without faith. You have to believe before you actu-
ally see it. Believing is knowing, absolutely and no one can change
your mind about it. That’s what God wants our attitude and opinion
to be.
God has integrity. No one has more integrity than God. He is
complete, whole, honest and sincere. God wants us to confidently
cling to him. Count on Him for all your answers. Don’t rely on
anyone or anything else. Just rely on God; on His ability, His power,
His timing, His honesty, His love, His trust, and His willingness to
help you. Believe that what He does and when He does it is in your
best interest. That is faith in God.
God’s word is like a binding contract that cannot be broken.
The sacrificial blood of Jesus seals that contract. Jesus’ blood is our
collateral or security to make sure God’s word is a binding contract
for us. Without the blood of Jesus, God does not have to answer any
of our prayers. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, we have His
blood to cover us and bind the contract of God’s word to us. God
faithfully watches over His word to perform it.
26
2007
When you hear that some people are strong in faith, it’s because
they read their Bible a lot and believe what they read. God says we
must live our lives daily from now on, day after day, by faith.
27
2007
Faith refuses to let go. Faith is a reflective act that shows in your
attitude, your walk, your look and your speech. If God says you are
healed, then stop looking, thinking and talking sick. If He says you
are financially blessed, stop looking and talking broke. If He says
you are a new creation in Christ then stop acting and talking like the
world, like the sinners.
Be strong in the Lord. Stand strong for Jesus. Don’t be shy and
ashamed for being good and living right. Don’t try to fit in with the
world. Don’t worry what others think of you. Worry about what God
is thinking of you. Try to impress God, not people.
Mixing faith with the word of God brings rest to your mind and
soul. Your words express whether you are walking by faith or by
sight. You end up speaking out of your mouth whatever you believe
28
2007
and whatever you want. You end up speaking and acting on what-
ever you think about.
Faith gets ready for whatever you believe in before it actually
happens. You might think speaking things before you see them
sounds crazy, but this is what God wants you to do. And guess what
God is smarter than you and I, so go ahead and do what He says, not
what you want, think, or feel.
Faith is seen. Not the thing you are believing for, but your faith
and what you believe will be evident.
29
2007
You see that his faith was cooperating with his works,
and his faith was completed and reached it’s supreme
expression, when he implemented it, by good works.
And so the scripture was fulfilled that says, Abraham
believed in, adhered to, trusted in, and relied on God, and
this was accounted to him as righteousness, as confor-
mity to God’s will in thought and deed, and he was called
God’s friend.
You see that a man is justified, pronounced righteous
before God, through what he does, and not alone through
faith, through works of obedience as well as what he
believes.
For as the human body apart from the spirit is lifeless,
so faith apart from its works of obedience is also dead.”

Mark 9:23, “Jesus said unto him, if thou canst believe, all
things are possible to him that believeth.”
You can put your trust and faith in God. You can take Him at His
word. He will not let you down. He is always there for His children.
If you belong to God, He hears you when you pray, and He will help
you if you believe and put your faith in Him.
You cannot separate God and His word. His word carries the
same integrity and power as God Himself. All of us are only as good
as our word. People judge the validity of the words we say according
to the kind of person we are. Our words reflect who we are and who
we are reflect the words we speak.

and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them
saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the
seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening
and the morning were the fifth day.
And God said, let the earth bring forth living crea-
tures after his kind, cattle and creeping things, and
beasts of the earth after his kind; and God saw that it
was good.
And God said, let Us make man in Our image, after
Our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of
the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle,
and over the earth, and over every creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in His own
image, in the image of God created He him; male and
female created He them. And God blessed them, and God
said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish
the earth, and subdue it. And have dominion over the fish
of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every
living thing that moveth upon the earth.
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb
bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and
every tree, in which the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to
you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth,
wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for
meat, and it was so.
And God saw everything that He had made, and
behold, it was very good. And the evening and the
morning were the sixth day. Thus the heavens and the
earth were finished, and all the host of them.
And on the seventh day God ended His work which
He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from
all His work which He had made. And God blessed the
seventh day, and sanctified it; because that in it He had
rested from all His work which God created and made.”
You’ve got to use your faith to step out and trust that everything
that you’ve just read is true. We don’t need to go any further until
41
2007
you first grasp the reality that God is the beginning of everything
and the Creator of everything that exists. God created all of life as
we know it.
I think believing that all things began and were created by God is
much easier than thinking there was a BIG BANG in space one day
and everything just sort of fell into place. This universe is too beau-
tiful and precise. Life is too exact and complex right down to the
tiniest molecules to have just come about by some explosion and yet
work together so perfectly. Explosions are destructive not creative.
Do you think the Mona Lisa was painted by some guy standing in
front of a canvas with a couple of gallons of paint that he just threw
on? I think not. He had a vision and a plan. As beautiful and exact
as the paint strokes of the Mona Lisa are, they still don’t compare to
the beauty and complexity of the world and universe.
You have to believe that God exists and always has, and that He
is the beginning of everything. The Bible plainly states that only a
fool would say there is no God.
And only a fool would not believe that all things were created
by Him.
“God” means Supreme Being. He is #1; there is none other before
or above Him. God is One worthy of being worshipped; One with
supernatural ability. God is wisdom, justice, goodness, and truth.
God is perfection and purity. He is powerful, faithful and righteous.
He is a big God. He can hold the world in the palm of His hand.
God is a mighty infinite Spirit. God is in control of everything.
Nothing can overpower Him. Meditate on the majesty and royalty of
God. Whatever you can imagine God to be, He is even greater. God
exceeds our imagination and our intelligence. Words can’t express
the greatness of His being. This is why, when we are in the presence
of God, we can only fall on our faces.
42
2007
43
2007
And He said, Thou canst not see My face, for there shall
no man see Me and live. And the Lord said, Behold, there
is a place by Me, and thou shalt stand upon and rock and
it shall come to pass while My glory passeth by, that I will
put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with
My hand as I pass by. And I will take away My hand,
and thou shalt see My back parts; by My face shall not
be seen.”
We may not have actually seen God, but He did reveal Himself
to others so they could testify of Him. Most of all, He revealed
Himself to and in Jesus Christ so He is a witness to Him and His
very nature.
44
2007
There are many religions in this world, but true Christians know
God as being “triune”: a triple Personality, three persons in one God.
We have one God, the Father, Jehovah. We have also the Son,
Jesus Christ, our Savior, Who does all the will of the Father. We have
the Holy Spirit, Who does the will of the Father and the Son. God
and Jesus are in Heaven on the throne watching over everything.
John 1:1-14; 17-18 “In the beginning was the Word and
the Word was with God and the Word was God. The same
was in the beginning with God. All things were made by
Him; and without Him was not anything made that was
made.
In Him was life; and the life was the Light of men.
And the Light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness
comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God
whose name was John. The same came for a witness,
to be a witness of the light, that all men through Him
might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to
bear witness of the Light. That was the true Light, which
lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was
in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the
world knew Him not. But as many as received Him, to
45
2007
After God created the world, the universe, and Adam and Eve
all was good and God was happy. He was able to walk and talk and
fellowship with mankind just like He wanted. Then Adam sinned
bringing a curse upon all mankind. This curse is handed down from
generation to generation.
46
2007
And Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence
of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden. And the
Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where
are thou? And he said, “I heard Thy voice in the Garden
and was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
And He said, Who told you you were naked? Hast thou
eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded that thou shouldst
not eat? And the man said, The woman Thou gavest to be
with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this
that thou host done? And the woman said, The serpent
beguiled me, and I did eat. And the Lord God said unto
the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou are cursed
above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon
thy belly thou shalt go and dust shalt thou eat all the
days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and
the woman; and between thy seed and her seed; it shall
bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Unto the
woman He said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and
thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth chil-
dren; and they desire shall be to thy husband, and he
shall rule over thee.
And unto Adam He said, Because thou has hearkened
unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of
which I commanded thee saying, Thou shalt not eat of it;
cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou
eat of all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles
shall if bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat of the herb
of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,
till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou
taken; for dust thou art and unto dust shall thou return.
And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was
the mother of all living. Unto Adam also and to his wife
did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
And the Lord God said, Behold the man has become as
one of Us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put
forth his hand, and take also of the Tree of Life, and eat
47
2007
and live forever. Therefore the Lord God sent him forth
from the Garden of Eden to till the ground from whence
he was taken. So He drove out the man; and He placed at
the east of the Garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming
swords, which turned every way, to keep the way of the
Tree of Life.”
Now, because of Adam’s sin, we are all born into this world as
sinners and separated from God. God has zero tolerance level when
it comes to sin.
Romans 3:23, “We have all sinned and fallen short of the
glory of God.”
48
2007
The old covenant (the laws), could not perfect our spirit and
soul. The new covenant with Jesus does.
49
2007
Jesus entered into the world as a man but with the spirit of God.
Jesus is the offspring of God. Jesus is the Word of God made flesh.
God caused Himself to be birthed by a woman, to be made flesh, so
He could relate to us flesh to flesh, body to body, to help us better
understand Him.
God longed for our friendship and our fellowship, but He was
loosing us. We were sinful continuously. God had to do something to
make it possible to bring us back to Him. We were having difficulty
understanding and living a life that was good enough to be able to
have a relationship with God. God in all His purity can’t tolerate sin
and darkness. His awesome perfect presence and nature consumes
sin and anything less than perfection. There was too much distance
between God and us. There was no intimacy or union between God
and man. God sent Jesus, a person, flesh and blood that we could
50
2007
relate to face to face, that had the spirit of God on the inside of
Him. God lived, spoke, related and demonstrated Himself through
the body of Jesus.
51
2007
Jesus grew and matured, and worked with His earthly dad,
Joseph, as a carpenter. He worshipped God as His Father and knew
God from the day He was born.
At about the age of 30, Jesus was water baptized in the River
Jordan by a man sent by God, named John the Baptist.
At the time of Jesus’ baptism, everyone saw with their eyes, the
Spirit of God come down upon Jesus’ flesh and a mighty audible
voice from Heaven saying, “this is My Son in whom I am well
pleased.”
Jesus walked away from the baptism to begin a 3 1/2 year journey.
The first 40 days and nights however, He spent alone in the wilder-
ness without food to be tempted by an evil spirit called Satan.
52
2007
Jesus then began His journey traveling from city to city, telling
everyone about God and about Heaven and how to be saved.
53
2007
54
2007
Jesus needed these men to help Him with the work of God, and
to be witnesses of His life.
Jesus continued healing people, performing miracles, and
showing people the love and power of God.
John 10:10, “I come that they might have life and they
might have it more abundantly.”
John 14:6, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no one
comes to the Father except through Me.”
He told the people to put their trust in Him and believe in Him.
Then He would show them miracles so they would believe that He
was sent from God.
There are far too many miracles that Jesus did for me to list
them all. Jesus did these miracles in front of many people and His
apostles, who wrote down what they saw.
55
2007
56
2007
Now you may ask, what was the purpose of all this drama that
God let Jesus go through? The reason God allowed His Son Jesus
to go through all this is because He loved us so much and wanted
us back with Him as a family, the way He first created us. When
Adam sinned, that separated mankind from God. God had a plan to
reconcile us back with Him and that was by His Son, Jesus Christ.
Because of Jesus, we can now dwell in the presence of God without
shame and reservation just like Adam did before he sinned.
John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave His
only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should
not perish but have everlasting life.”
God sent His Son Jesus to die on the cross and shed His blood
as our sacrifice for sin. Jesus died in our place so we don’t have to.
Jesus died to save the world.

for our sins. God called Him, and Jesus said yes. Jesus chose to be
that vessel God could use and possess.

Jesus is our Savior from sin and Hell. He now sits at the right
hand of our Father God Almighty to make intercession for us.
He gets us in the right condition so God can actually approach
us without consuming us. Jesus takes sin away from us and makes
us pure in nature so God can live within us.
Our bodies are now called the temple of the Holy Ghost of
God.
Jesus received the Holy Spirit of God when John the Baptist,
baptized Him in water.
61
2007
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and
saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the
sin of the world.
This is He of whom I said, After me cometh a man
which is preferred before me; for He was before me.
And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit
descending from Heaven like a dove, and it abode upon
Him.
And I knew Him not; but He that sent me to baptize
with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou
shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him,
the same is He that baptizes with the Holy Ghost.
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of
God.”
Jesus was the word of God in the flesh. All that Jesus spoke was
God speaking through Him.
John 1:14, “And the Word was made flesh and dwelt
among us.”
There is Jesus in flesh and soul, who is the clone of God in Spirit
and soul; God’s mannerism, His nature, His way of thinking, His
personality; Who God is.
62
2007
John 14:0, “…he that hath seen Me, hath seen the Father.”
Now if you want to talk to God, you must come in the name of
Jesus. Jesus gives the permission to whoever speaks to God.

twines Himself with your soul and spirit. We become one with the
Holy Spirit.
When we receive the Holy Spirit of God on the inside, we receive
the character of God. The character of God is revealed through us
by our personality and emotions. The character, personality and
emotions of God are described one with the Holy Spirit.
You can’t truly be good if you don’t have goodness on the inside.
You can’t be kind if you don’t have kindness. You can’t completely
and genuinely love someone unless you have love on the inside.
God is the only One who can give you these pure real fruit of the
Spirit. Anything else is just a generic act, a shallow ‘wannabe’.
The character of God, the fruit of the Spirit, must be developed
and practiced on a daily basis. We do this by reading and meditating
on the word of God and by our choices we make continuously all
day. Controlling your tongue and your mouth are a big step in the
right direction.
When people are in your presence, they should be able to experi-
ence the presence of God. Surrender yourself for God to flow through
you to others. God touches people, even unbelievers, through His
obedient children. We are here to interact with people and show
God’s love and goodness to others. Be a witness for God. We are
here to act like Jesus and be Godlike as best as we can so people
will know how wonderful God is and want Him in their lives as
well. Don’t say you are a Christian and then have bad behavior, bad
language or a bad attitude. That is an embarrassment to God and to
all of us who are Christians and trying to portray the image of God.
Don’t make excuses for being a mean ugly person. We are the salt
of the earth. If you treat someone badly, take responsibility for it and
69
2007
God wants to do good for us and bless us, but He won’t unless
we let SINCERE goodness flow through us to others. God does not
force us to do good. Our lives are the result of choices we make.
God NEVER forces. We always have the right to choose. God just
backs off until we make the right choices. When we do, He blesses
us for our obedience and goodness. No good deed goes unnoticed
with God. He knows all things; our intentions and our sincerity.
The Holy Spirit of God will mold you step by step into the
image of God. The earlier in life you accept Jesus as your Savior, the
quicker He is able to get into your life to help you and protect you,
lead and guide you in your every day life. Involve the Holy Spirit in
all your decision making, no matter how menial, or how big.
The Holy Spirit is continually working in us causing a transfor-
mation, making us more like Jesus.
70
2007
71
2007
72
2007
This is the job of the Holy Spirit, to show us the error of our
ways, and then show us what God expects from us and give us the
strength to do better.
The Holy Spirit will not work with a bad attitude and an evil
heart. You have to have a forgiving, humble, loving, kind, giving
attitude to have the Holy Spirit work through you.
If you are selfish, hateful, unforgiving, argumentative, violent,
nasty, perverse and just down right rude and obnoxious, don’t think
for a second God will use you to go around and represent Him in any
way. Another thing God hates are people who are snobbish, self-righ-
teous, full of pride and vanity. God is not pleased with people who
think they are better than anyone else. God turns away from them.
The Holy Spirit dwells with a pure clean heart full of sincerity,
honesty, goodness and love. And God knows your true heart. What
is really inside; the real reason why you do things. You can’t fool
73
2007
God. You might be able to pretend to be something your not and get
away with it with other people, but not with God. God will wait for
you to be honest and sincere with Him, yourself and with others. He
does not respond well to hypocrites.
You have to live in truth and honesty. You have to want to get
along with others and really care about other people’s feelings more
than your own. God knows if you’re shallow and self-centered.
If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, then you belong to
God and you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you, helping you
be the person God wants you to be. You don’t accept Jesus as Savior
half-heartedly. If you are not ready to give yourself to Him 100%
and willing to change from your evil ways 100%, then God waits for
you to get to that point.
74
2007
The Holy Spirit will not fight against your wishes. He knows
your heart and He hears your request. If your requests are the will of
God and your attitude is right, then you can expect to get what you
ask for.
The Holy Spirit convicts us when we sin, and leads and guides
us in our daily decision-making.
The Holy Spirit is the force that surrounds us that does not allow
danger and Satan to consume us.
The Holy Spirit is also that force and presence around us that
acts as a magnet that draws our earthly desires to us; whatever is
needed to give us complete joy inside.
The Holy Spirit tells you what God the Father and God the Son
want you to know for your life. He reveals what plans God has for
you and exactly what course you need to take to get there.
The Holy Spirit reveals and imparts the very nature of God into
your spirit. He transforms you and causes you to be an effective
witness for God. God intends for you to be a witness and an example
of Him to others. Your goal should not be to just get saved and born
again to escape hell. The very last thing Jesus said before He left this
75
2007
Though doing well for others, being kind and helpful are all
pleasing to God and He expects that from His children, they still mean
absolutely nothing to God if it is not done with an attitude of love
and sincerity. The goal of the Trinity is for all of us to live together
in peace, joy, unity and love. If we have true sincere love for each
other and for God everything else just falls in place. There would not
be crime, poverty, hatefulness, or hopelessness. This is what Heaven
is like. No one is sick. Everyone is happy and loving one another
and helping one another with a grateful and sincere heart and soul.
The only way to have true love is to have God on the inside of you.
Anything else is just a cheap imitation. You also can’t give true love to
people if you don’t have it on the inside. You just can’t give something
away, that you don’t have. The Bible describes true love.
76
2007
that I may glory, but have not love (God’s love in me), I
gain nothing.
Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never
is envious or boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or
vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily.
It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride);
it is not rude, does not insist on it’s own rights or it’s own
way, for it is not self-seeking: it is not touchy or fretful
or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it, (it
pays no attention to a suffered wrong).
It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness,
but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
Love bears up under anything and everything that
comes, is ever ready to believe and best of every person,
its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it
endures everything without weakening.
Love never fails, never fades out or becomes obsolete
or comes to an end. As for prophecy, the gift of inter-
preting the divine with and purpose, it will be fulfilled
and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and
cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away, it will lose it’s
value and be superceded by truth.
For our knowledge is fragmentary (incomplete and
imperfect), and our prophecy our teaching is fragmentary,
incomplete and imperfect. But when the complete and
perfect (total) comes, the incomplete and imperfect will
vanish away (become antiquated, void and superceded).
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a
child, I reasoned like a child; now I have become a man, I
am done with childish ways and have put them aside.
For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a
dim, blurred reflection of reality as in a riddle or enigma,
but then when perfection comes we shall see in reality and
face to face! Now I know in part, imperfectly, but then I
shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the
same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and
understood by God.

TRUE LOVE

79
TRUE LOVE
Cc
With these character traits on the inside of us, we now have the
ability to act like Jesus if we choose to. When we react to life situ-
ations in one of these character traits we are demonstrating the fruit
of the spirit.
81
2007
If you are not walking in love you are probably walking in self-
ishness. This is something God warned us about in the last days.
People are always thinking about themselves and how to bring plea-
sure to themselves. All sin comes from a root of selfishness. Sexual
sins happen because people want to pleasure their flesh. Adultery,
fornication, divorce is all caused by selfishness. People rob, steal and
cheat because of trying to get more for themselves. People lie, boast
and brag because they want others to think differently and better
about them than what the truth really is. The bible says in 2 Timothy
3:1-5(New Century Version), “Remember this! In the last days
there will be many troubles, because people will live themselves,
love money, brag and be proud. They will say evil things against
others and will not obey their parents or be thankful or be the
kind of people God wants. They will not love others, will refuse to
forgive, will gossip and will not control themselves. They will be
cruel, will hate what is good, will turn against their friends, and
will do foolish things without thinking. They will be conceited,
will love pleasure instead of God, and will act as if they serve
God but will not have His power. Stay away from those people.”
Man is a failure and living in sin if he is selfish and not walking in
love. Selfishness is the opposite of love. When you are selfish you
are seeking your own advantages in life.
God cares about and knows about every little thing that you do,
think and say. But it makes no difference to God what you do or say
if it is not done with true love. God says you can give your money
to the poor, feed the hungry, pray for the sick, donate your kidney or
your liver, go to church, volunteer your time helping others, spend
your whole life giving and doing, but if you are not doing it just
because you love people and love God and want to please Him, then
it doesn’t matter.
82
2007
Your love walk is a choice that you make, not a feeling. You
don’t wait till you feel like loving someone before you love them.
You love them because that is what you have decided to do no matter
what they say or do. You choose to walk in love over and over again
until you discipline your flesh to automatically react in love. We are
disciples of God, which is LOVE. A disciple disciplines himself after
his master. When you genuinely walk in complete surrender to love,
it causes a wonderful indescribable feeling. This is that connection
that our souls long for. We try to find it in all kinds of ways, but God
is the only one who can give it to us. Once you experience this, it puts
your life into the right perspective. You’ll see that the most important
things in life is not what you can see and touch. It is not anything
physical or material. It is SPIRITUAL. It is LOVE. It is GOD.
83
2007
want to share it with others. You want to help others and be nice to
others. You tend to be more understanding and forgiving.
You will be kind and in word, forgiving, loyal, true, honest, pure
and gentle. When you love someone you support them, and respect
them and give them the benefit of doubt no matter what things look
like or sound like. You trust them and believe in them. You never
give up on them.
84

CHAPTER SIX
FORGIVENESS
Cc
87
FORGIVENESS
Cc
89
2007
because I felt like they did not deserve it, especially when they were
not even sorry for what they had done. But I love God and I love
me. I could not live with that pain and emotional torment. I prayed
and told God I choose to forgive them. Please give me strength and
take away the pain and resentment, and God did. Now when I see
these people, I have no bad feelings toward them at all. I actually
feel sorry for them.
God expects His children to walk out their everyday lives holding
no anger, resentment, offense, or unforgiveness against anyone.
Even though you feel many people may not deserve to be forgiven,
God expects us to forgive them anyway. Forgiving people actually
helps us and our relationship with God more than it helps the person
we are forgiving.
Christians are to keep their hearts and thoughts clean and clear
at all times. As soon as you forgive people and let go of the wrongs
that have been done to you, the better off you are. We, as Christians,
need the power and presence of God at all times. If we have offense
and unforgiveness in our hearts against people, God will not be
able to use us to bless others. He will not bless us and help us. The
anointing of God cannot flow through us.
Offense happens not only with big things like when someone
uses you and abuses you or uses and abuses someone you love.
Rapists, murderers, child molesters, thieves, liars, cheaters, these
are big offenses that are hard to give forgiveness for. It’s not easy
when someone hurts you or your children, or when someone tries
to destroy your business or break up your marriage. But with God’s
help you can do it.
God is just as concerned with the small offenses as well. Things
like getting angry with your waitress, your sales clerk, your children,
your parents or road rage. Control your anger and your outburst of
emotion. Just try to go with the flow of life.
Just because we are to forgive people does not mean they should
be excused from their punishment for crimes they commit or for
breaking the law. People must be held accountable for their bad
behavior. We are not to take it in our own hands to inflict punish-
ment. We are to turn it over to the proper authorities. If jail is the
punishment, then so be it. If death is the punishment, then so be it.
90
2007
God does not let people get away with the wrongs they do. They will
be punished. We as Christians are to forgive and then just back off
and let God take care of things the way He sees fit.
91
2007
because they know you are a Christian, so they try to get under
your skin and see how you are going to react to them. People
who claim to be your friend but hurts you over and over, does not
deserve to be your friend. A spouse that cheats on you over and
over again may not deserve to be married to you. Forgive them,
yes, but distance yourself from them. Keep your guard up around
them. You can’t trust them so avoid their company. Some friend-
ships and some marriages need to be ended. You can’t change
other people. You can only change you and the way you react to
other people.
When someone wrongs you, you feel hurt and betrayed. If that
hurt and betrayal is not dealt with, it can turn into hatred. That hatred
takes away your joy and happiness. It turns you into a person that
God does not want you to be.
Depending on the depth of your pain, and how quickly you are
able to surrender all to God, forgiveness can take time. Slowly you
may have to forgive, one step at a time, one day at a time, until you
are free!!
Forgiveness destroys pain, hurt and pride. I’ve had people to
do me wrong and God has had me to go to them and hug them and
apologize. You think at the time that will kill you if you do it. It is so
terribly hard. But I would do it when God told me to. I love God too
much to not do what He is telling me to do. I need my heart clean
at all times, so I can stay close to God and in communication with
Him always. When I need to speak to God, I do not want anything
or anyone to be able to prevent that from happening. I want to pray
and enter right into His presence.
There have been other situations in my life where people have
hurt me and I’ve just wanted to beat them and hurt them the way
they had hurt me, but God has told me to just let it go and stay
away from them. God will tell you how to handle certain people in
your life that gives you trouble depending on your own situation and
circumstance. What might be right for one person may not be right
for another. Let God lead you. He knows the whole situation and the
hearts of everyone involved.
92
2007
If you have truly forgiven someone who has hurt you, you will
pray for them. You will help them if they need help.
If someone hurts you, you can’t just avoid him or her forever,
especially if they are a family member. You’ll have to go to them
and tell them they hurt you but you are willing to forgive them and
start over.
If they are not willing to start over, then fine, you have done your
part. Pray for them. You can’t make people do something they do
not want to do. You can’t control others. Put it in God’s hands. God
will work on them and soften their heart.
You only have control over your heart, your mind, and your
actions; so you keep doing the right thing and show love.
Just remember that forgiveness is a choice you make not a feeling
you have. Let true love rule in your heart and be all God wants you
to be.

CHAPTER SEVEN
GOD’S WORD
THE BIBLE
Cc
97
GOD’S WORD, THE BIBLE
Cc
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with
God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1
W hen God created this world, He gave us His word to live by,
to instruct us, to show us right from wrong, to comfort us,
and to give us strength, faith, and peace when the trails of life come
against us.
The Bible tells us where we came from, what we are to be doing
here and where we are going.
The name “bible” is derived from a Greek word, bibles, meaning
book. The Bible is actually composed of 66 separate books. It is in
order as a consecutive history of mankind, from creation to the end
of mankind.
The Bible was written to each and every one of us man, woman,
child, white, black, every person on the face of this earth. God does
not discriminate. We are all equal in His eyes. He loves all of us the
same.
God spoke with certain people at certain times and He had His
words written down and compiled into this book that would give
us all the answers to life that we would need to know. It tells us
how things began (Genesis) and how things will end (Revelation).
It tells us how to live a life that is peaceful, loving, successful, and
prosperous. The Bible tells us what kind of relationship to have with
one another and with God Himself. Answers to every topic from
99
2007
100
2007
word always. He never lies. The Bible says “He watches over His
word to perform it”, and “His word never fails.”
When we read God’s word, the Bible, we learn more about God
and life and that helps to give us hope.
There is nothing going on in your life right now that has not been
experienced by someone in the Bible. Those stories were written
and composed to show you that since the beginning of time, people
have had the same kind of problems. It just happened in a different
place at a different time. But the people and their feelings were just
like yours and mine.
In the Bible God shows us the right and wrong choices to make
about our lives and the consequences to those choices.
God is a good God. He loves us all very much, but if you choose
to disobey Him and not live your life the way He commands then the
consequences will probably be death, physical or spiritual or both.
This means it’s like looking in a mirror and seeing dirt on your
face, but walking away and doing nothing about it. God’s word and
law is a spiritual mirror. You read His word to see if you are living the
right way. If you read His word and see that you don’t live according
to God’s will, then God expects you to do something about it. You
have read the word and know the truth. As you read the word you
101
2007
102
2007
God’s morals are the right morals. People really amuse me when
they are sinning and they stand in your face and say they have morals.
Well there is only one set of morals that matter. You don’t make up
your own rules as you go along, for whatever is convenient or good
for you. They think that one sin is not as bad as another, or they think
it must not be wrong all my friends are doing it. They sleep around
outside of marriage, they think they are better than everyone around
them, they lie and cheat people, but they haven’t killed anyone so
they are okay. People who think like this is deceived. In God’s eyes
sin is sin. There is not little sins or big sins.
You get confused about what is right and wrong when you don’t
go to church and read the Bible; especially today, because so many
people have fallen away from God and the Bible. You can’t live your
life the way everyone else does because they are probably doing it
wrong too.
If you are going to make it in this world, and have a life that is
happy and peaceful and be assured of eternal bliss in Heaven when
you die, you must have God and the Bible in your life today. You
have got to get a backbone and stand up for what is right. You have
to be strong enough to stand up to your husband, wife, sister, brother,
boyfriend, girlfriend, preacher, teacher, Mom or Dad and say this is
what I’m doing because the Bible says that’s the way it should be.
You have to get in control of your life, read your Bible to find out
how you are suppose to live and start making different choices and
decisions. Be careful not to have an attitude that you’re better than
others because you’re making better choices. Others may accuse
you of that, but just know in your heart that you are doing what your
doing and others can choose their own way as well, as long as they
don’t pull you down with them.
Whether you choose to believe God and His word and live
your life accordingly or not, His word stands strong and will last
forever.
103
2007
God will judge you and determine your eternal destiny by the
choices you make in your everyday life, according to His word in
the Bible, through Jesus Christ.
The most important things in life are not how much money you
have or how big your house and car are. It’s not how popular you are
or how great you think you look. It’s all about your spirit and soul
and who’s in control of it. Your time here on earth is not all there
is to life. Your time here on earth is just a training ground. You are
going to live eternally somewhere. When your body dies, your spirit
will either live on in Heaven or in Hell. These are literal places just
like earth.
Read your Bible and get acquainted with God. Renew your mind
and get your life straight about what is right or wrong. You can only
find these answers in the Bible. Don’t take my word of it or anyone
else’s. Read your Bible and find out for yourself what it says.

SATAN AND SIN
Cc
Angels are part of the spirit world. Angels were the first to be in
relationship with the Godhead. The most beautiful of all the angels
was Lucifer. Lucifer was God’s #1 angel. He knew God and God’s
kingdom very well. Lucifer means brightness or one that shines.
Lucifer was also the Chief musician in Heaven.
Just like God created mankind with a free will and the ability to
make our own choices and decisions, God also created Lucifer and
the other angels with a free will and the ability to make choices and
decisions..
Because God gave Lucifer so much power and beauty, pride
filled his being.
107
2007
108
2007
When God threw Lucifer out of Heaven, 1/3 of the angels went
with him because they were in on the rebellion as well. God changed
Lucifer’s name to Satan, which means opposer and adversary, and
the angels who rebelled are now called demons.
Demons are fallen angels who serve Satan and do his will an
help him to accomplish his purposes.
Satan was cast out of Heaven because of pride and vanity, and
because he thought he could some how take God’s place and cause
people to worship him.
Satan is now called “ruler of the air” or “prince of the air”.
When Adam sinned and ate the apple from the tree that God told
he and Eve not to touch, he not only separated mankind from God,
he turned the earth over to Satan to have full run of. God still owns
this earth and everything in it, but He is temporarily letting Satan
have the run of things.
The Bible says Satan now roams the earth with his demons,
causing trouble by keeping people at conflict with one another. He
also tempts us to sin and do the opposite of whatever God wants us
to do.
When people do you wrong, God says it’s not the people that we
are actually in conflict with. He says it’s the demons that they have
allowed to rule in their lives.
109
2007
That doesn’t mean we turn tail and run from people who are
against us, it means we fight them (the evil doers) with Godliness in
the spirit realm. That means we keep doing what is right and don’t
give in no matter how much pressure we feel. The bible says pray
for those who persecute you and do you wrong.
We all are responsible for whatever spiritual force we are
allowing to rule in our lives. We don’t have to do the wrong that
Satan tempts us to do. We have a free will to choose.
Every being in existence belongs to either Satan or God. There
is no in between.
If you are not part of God’s family, then you belong to Satan.
Being a Christian does not mean trials and tribulations will not come
to your life, it just means God will provide a way out for you, and
give you strength to be an over comer.
God will give you the strength to overcome any problem. God
will not allow you to go through more than you can handle.
When you are going through bad times, trying times your faith
is tested.
110
2007
It feels like God is nowhere around. It feels like you are all alone.
And in many cases you are all alone - you have no physical person
here on earth to help you.
It feels like Jesus is asleep in the bottom of the boat while this
big storm is going on and He’s not helping.
But you are not alone. Jesus is there. He is willing and ready to
help. Just ASK, and you shall receive.
When I was having terrible problems in my life, I definitely felt
all alone. But I cried out to God and was willing to do whatever He
told me to do and God took care of everything.
Financial problems, marital problems, emotional problems, grief
and mourning, business problems, God has an answer for every-
thing. He wants His children victorious and successful.
Satan cannot make you do anything wrong, he can only tempt,
tease, and suggest, by sending wrong thoughts and opportunities to
you. The actual choice and power lies in your own hands.
111
2007
How do you stop it? Well we can only think of one thing at a
time. So fill your thoughts with goodness and purity.
112

1 John 3:8, “He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the
devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose of the
Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the
works of the devil.”

come them; because greater is He that is in you, than he
that is in the world.”

Who are you?
Cc
You are a spirit being. You have a soul, which is your mind, will
and emotions, and you live in a body. Your body is just your earth
suit. Your body is a way for people to identify, relate and interact
with one another and our earthly environment. It is a way to experi-
ence each other and our physical surroundings. Twins may look alike
117
2007
on the outside, but on the inside they are two completely different
people, because their spirit and soul are different. You could clone
yourself. The only thing that is being duplicated is your flesh. Your
clone would still have a different spirit and soul, making your clone
a different person than you. Your spirit is unique. There is only one
of you, even if there are 10 bodies that look alike, no one can dupli-
cate your spirit. Your spirit is who you really are and you are one of
a kind.
Your body is controlled by your spirit and soul. Your body will
do only what your spirit and soul let it. Your outward behavior is a
result of who you really are on the inside.
Your body will die one day. Your spirit is the real you. Your
spirit looks like the image of your flesh, but is spiritual. Your spirit
and soul live on forever, either in Heaven or Hell, depending on the
choices you make here on earth.
There are only two spiritual forces in this world. Every being
belongs to one or the other. There is nothing in between. God is the
ruler over goodness and truth and lives in Heaven, where you will
spend eternity if you choose to live your life according to His will.
Satan is the ruler over evil and everything in opposition of God. He
lives in Hell where you will spend eternity if you choose to live your
life according to his will.
God and Satan both want your spirit and soul. God makes it
perfectly clear that if you do not live for Him you automatically
belong to Satan.
118
2007
You make the choice. God will not force you. God loves you, but
will allow you to go straight to Hell, if that is what you choose. God
has given us a free will, with the right to choose our own destiny. So
identify yourself. Are you a Christian, (a child of God) or a sinner?
Only you and God really know what is in your heart. You are the
only one who knows where you are going to spend eternity. Don’t
think you have plenty of time to make up your mind. None of us
know when our last day will be.

STARTING OVER

121
STARTING OVER
Cc
Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned and come short of the
glory of God.”
Every single person born into this world is born a sinner. No one
is exempt. We must be born again spiritually if we are to escape Hell
and spend eternity in Heaven; The earlier in life the better. But no
matter how old you are, if you are still breathing it’s not too late.
123
2007
Being born again means your spirit is rebirthed. When you are
born again you leave behind your old, sinful ways, and you take on
the nature and likeness of God. You read your Bible and find out how
God wants you to act in your everyday life situations, and then you
do it, not matter the consequence. It means you start listening to your
spirit man talking to you on the inside and follow his direction.
124
2007
No one is denied. If you are truly sorry for your sins and you
want to live for God, all you have to do is ask.
No matter who you are or what you have done, if you call upon
God with a repentive heart, you will be accepted. God judges all of
us by our heart and nothing else. He knows if you are being sincere
and honest or not.
God loves all of us. He is not going to tolerate our sins, but He
still loves us. The same way you love your children, but if they do
something wrong they have to be punished. You tell them and teach
them the right way, but if they choose to make bad choices, there are
consequences.
125
2007
Jesus Christ gave His life and shed His blood on the cross for
your sins and mine. He took our place and our punishment. Jesus
substituted Himself for you and me. Thank God we no longer have
to sacrifice animals or anything else. The blood that Jesus shed was
perfect enough for all of us, no matter what we’ve done.
Acts 26:18, “To open their eyes, and to turn them from
darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God,
that they may receive forgiveness of sins, an inheritance
among them, which are sanctified by faith that is in me.”
126
2007
127
2007
From now on you can pray to God in the name of Jesus. You
now have everlasting life with God in Heaven. Continue to give
thanks to God our Father for what He has done for you. Never forget
where you came from, it helps you to appreciate where you are.
Now read your Bible daily. Start first with the New Testament.
Begin with Mathew 1:1 and just read on through to Revelations.
Also read Deuteronomy 28:1-14. These are the promises and bless-
ings of God that you are entitled to as a child of God and born again
believer.
Your spirit is just a baby. You need to feed your spirit to grow.
The Bible is the spiritual food that you need. Read your Bible as
God speaking to you personally.
God is awesome. He is a wonderful Father. Learn about Him.
Pray every day to Him. Talk to Him. He longs for your fellowship
and love.
You are a Christian now and no one can take that away from
you.

CHAPTER ELEVEN

SEALED BY THE BLOOD
Cc
A ccepting Jesus as your Savior was the best decision you will
ever make. You must start renewing your mind to the new
person you are now. You may have been an alcoholic, drug addict,
murderer, rapist, homosexual, thief, or whatever, but now you are
born again. You are starting over with a new life. That may mean
you have to move or get new friends. You cannot continue to hang
out with the same rowdy unsaved crowd of people. If you do they
will end up pulling you back into that lifestyle. Stay away from
them. Make new friends.
You can say you won’t do drugs, sleep around, curse, drink or
whatever but if you continue to hang out with it you will. Believe me
you will be tested to see if you are going to stick with it or not. When
that temptation comes just say no, I don’t do that any more. I am a
new person. That was the old me. I’ve been born again. Then stick to
it. God will give you the strength you need to be an over comer.
You are now royalty. You are a King’s kid. You have been adopted
into the royal family of God. This means all your needs for living
will be provided for, you have power and authority to use the name
131
2007
of Jesus, you have healing available for your body, soul, and mind,
you have complete 24/7 protection for yourself and your family, you
have peace, joy, and happiness, you have a promise of eternal life in
heaven with Jesus in a mansion of your own. You have many other
things as well, just read your Bible and find out for yourself.
We have an iron clad contract with God that He will not deny.
Knowing this with all your heart is an important factor to living that
wonderful, plentiful, victorious, Christian life. God’s covenant with
us is the foundation we stand on as His children, and joint-heirs into
the Kingdom of God. Almighty God has bound Himself to us by the
blood of Jesus.
The blood of Jesus is our guarantee, our title deed, our legal
binding contract between us and God. We have an inheritance that is
ours and no one can hold it back from us. Everything we need and
want in life has been bought and paid for by the blood of Jesus and
given to us as part of our inheritance into the royal family.
As you begin to grasp the reality of who you are in Christ,
you will take on a different attitude, and acquire a new strength
mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. You will be strong
and immovable even under the greatest attack from the enemy.
Remember, greater is He that is in you (Jesus), then he that is in the
world (Satan).
If you married into, or was adopted into the royal family in
England, you would not have to worry about where you lived, what
you would eat, what you would wear, what you would drive and so
on. Well God’s royal family is even 100 times better than that. God
makes promises to us His children that only God Himself can fulfill.
No human being could possibly offer you more than God can. God
is a good Father that takes good care of His children.
132
2007
133
2007
All God wants in return is our love and devotion. Treat Him
like He is your Father and family. He will treat you the same way,
because that is what we are.
God wants us, His family to be strong, bold and powerful, and
completely loyal to Him. He will allow your love for Him to be
tested, to see how loyal and devoted you are. He wants us to be a
vessel that His love flows through. He wants us to love Him and
others around us as well.

CHAPTER TWELVE
DOING GOOD
IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH

137
DOING GOOD,
IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH
Cc
I ’ve heard this excuse from people so many times. People say
“I don’t need to go to church, I believe there’s a god!” Or “I’m
not a bad person. I don’t drink or curse or do drugs.” “I’m a
good husband or a good wife; I take good care of my kids.”
Just because you look like an all-American family, doesn’t mean
your in good shape spiritually and going to Heaven.
I’m sure there’s going to be a lot of so-called “good people”
going to Hell. You have to have a relationship with God. Rely on
Him and count on Him in your every day lives. You’ve got to truly
give Him credit for your successes and well being. You’ve got to
know Him. Not know about Him. If you had never met your earthly
dad, someone could tell you all about him. But until you actually sat
down and talked to him and him talk to you and hang out with him it
would be hard to say you definitely knew him. The same goes with
God. You’ve got to spend some time reading your Bible and finding
out what He’s like and what He expects from you.
139
2007
Do not do good for people just so you can be praised and looked
up to. Do good for people because you genuinely care for them,
and you want to be God’s hands and an example of His love and
goodness.
Just knowing God exists is not good enough. Satan knows God
exists.. Satan knows Heaven exists. Satan knows the Bible. That’s
not good enough. You must have a relationship with God and be
willing to listen to Him and do as He says. Satan has a rebellious
heart. He challenged God and went against all God stands for.
140
2007
God is the ultimate judge of your life and He will judge your
heart. He judges your intentions and your reasons behind your
actions. Do things to please God not people. Do things just because
God said so.
Doing good, nice things does not make you good. Having Jesus
as your Savior and God in your heart makes you good.
To just know what the Bible says and believe there is a God is not
good enough. To just go to church on Sundays is not good enough.
To profess to be a Christian is not good enough. Just because you
are a preacher or a goody two shoes does not mean you are going to
Heaven.
141
2007
Before God created this world, Satan, then called Lucifer was
the most beautiful of all angels. He knew God. Lucifer was the head
musician. God gave Lucifer full run of Heaven. But Lucifer was not
satisfied. He wanted to be God. He rebelled against God. He wanted
to make up his own rules. He wouldn’t be obedient and submissive
to do things the way God wanted them to be done. So God kicked
him out of Heaven and when He did, Lucifer took one third of the
angels with him. Lucifer is now Satan. The angels he took are now
demons. Satan, the demons and everyone who does not belong to
God will spend eternity in Hell burning at the end of the world.
The Bible says there is only one that is good and that is God.
Don’t confuse nice with good. Some people may be nice, but
they are not good. If you don’t have God you are not good. You must
have God in your heart to be good! And again, the only way you can
have God in your heart is to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and
accept the blood sacrifice He made on the cross for your sins!!
Just because you are rich, pretty, popular and looked up to by this
world, does not make you good. Just because you give a lot of money
to charity does not make you good. Just because you are for world
peace or animal rights or spend all your time and money feeding the
poor and traveling to other countries does not make you good.
God is the only one that can make you good. And He’s available
to everyone.
There are only two groups of people in this world. Christians,
saved and on their way to Heaven and sinners, on their way to
Hell.
142
2007
John 9:31 (Amp), “We know that God does not listen to
sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and a worshipper
of Him and does His will, He listens to him.”
1 Samuel 16:7, “…For the Lord does not see as man sees;
for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord
looks at the heart.”
143
2007
The last point I want to cover is the question, “why do bad things
happen to good people?”
Lets get clear that God does not make bad things happen to you.
Your own choices in life come with consequences. Sometimes God
will allow you to work through the consequences of your actions
and choices.
Trials and tribulations in life make you stronger. God will use
those trials sometimes to help teach us a lesson. Bad things will
happen. Just because you become a Christian does not mean bad
things will stop happening.
144
2007
God cares about you, His children. Don’t get tired of doing the
right thing and standing up for what is good and right. God will
bless you.
Galatians 6:9 (Amp), “And let us not lose heart and grow
weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in
due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we
do not loosen and relax our courage and faint.”

CHAPTER THIRTEEN
CHURCH

147
CHURCH
Cc
W hen Jesus left this earth, some of His last words were for us,
His children, to go forth and spread the good news about
Jesus, salvation and the Bible.
The biggest problem Jesus had in His day was with the so-called
religious people. Jesus wants a church that has a relationship with
Him. He needs people that will go and do daily as He leads them.
Not people who follow a bunch of rules and think they are better
than everyone else. He wants His children to have compassion for
one another and willing to lay down their lives for one another.
There will be people from all religions and denominations in
Heaven. God does not have a favorite. It does not matter if you are
149
2007
150
2007
151
2007
God can bless us and help us even if there were no churches, but
it makes it much easier for God to send us help if He can turn to His
children and send them to be His voice, His hands, His money, His
love and compassion. God uses people to help one another. He can
cause money and recourses to fall from Heaven if He wants to, but
His way of doing things is people helping people.
152
2007
This scripture plainly states if you help others, then others will
give help back to you.
153
2007
an example for people to follow. Counsel people and let people know
you are there for them. Let people know that you are aware of bad
behavior in the church. Let them know the church does not approve
of that kind of behavior and that you are there for them when they
are ready to talk and change.
God needs pastors to take care of the flock He has given them. Look
out for them and counsel them. Teach them how to be strong over-
comers and witnesses for God. Tell them to get out and be a witness
to their family and friends. Time is short God needs some warriors for
Him. Preach to people as if it were their last day on earth.
Where’s the love. Love has action. Love helps people, cares for
people, and forgives people.
Get out of your comfort zone. Go the extra mile put yourself in
other people’s shoes. Help one another. When you help others you
are helping God and God will in turn bless you. You cannot out give
God. If you help someone in need, God will bless you back many
times over.
Of course God does not expect you to give more than you have.
That’s why we all work together helping one another with everyone
doing what they can.
154
2007
155
2007
156
2007
Our job is to love one another and help carry one another’s
burdens as if they were our own.
157
2007
158
2007
Just because the deed to the church is in the pastor’s name or the
boards name does not make it their church. CHURCHES BELONG
TO GOD.
159
2007
160
2007
God says if you are faithful over little, He will give you much.
If you let one of your sheep, stray away from the flock without
trying to help them find their way back, God will hold you account-
able for that.
161
2007
162
2007
God does not care if you hold a gospel sing, or a spaghetti dinner,
but if you can’t help someone pay their electric bill, or buy them
food or pay their rent so they are not homeless, or lay hands on the
sick, then what good is all that other stuff you are doing. People
need to be entertained and encouraged, but on occasion, people need
some real help right in there where they live. If your church tells you
not to count on them for help or answers when you’re in trouble,
that church is not operating in the will of God. It’s the pastor’s job
and the churches job to educate and teach the congregation to turn
to God and learn to be strong, but when they have done all they can
and still need help, then you should give them help.
One of the purposes of receiving tithes and offerings is to
take care of the church, the pastor, the board, and operation of the
church building. But the main part of the church is the people, not
163
2007
the building. The people are the CHURCH OF GOD. Without the
people there would be no church. The church should help take care
of the family of people that God has sent them. God has made some
churches debt free, but they still won’t help a brother or sister in
need. They will charter planes and fly to meetings, take trips at the
churches expense with the tithes and offerings. Ask them to buy
your groceries this week because you’ve lost your job, or help you
pay your rent and see what happens. Does God want His money
used to just entertain the pastor and the board? I don’t think so.
Not all churches are like that. There are still some churches in town
that follow their true calling. They still care about the people in the
church and appreciate the ones God has given them. Check out your
church. See how they treat people who are in need. See what they
do with the tithes and offerings. It’s up to you to make sure you are
planting your seeds in good ground.
You can’t get out of balance of course. You can’t expect the
church to pick up your slack every month paying your bills or buying
you food. If you are having the same problem over and over again,
you need to examine your life and see what the problem is and make
changes accordingly to eliminate that problem, and learn to take
care of yourself within your limits. You can’t go out parting, shop-
ping, smoking, drinking and having a good time and then expect the
church to help you pay your bills. The church should not be taken
advantage of like that.
If you don’t work you don’t eat. Some people can’t work though.
Some people are trying to find a job but having difficulties. The
responsibility of the church is to pray for the people individually
if needed and teach them how to pray and believe God for their
own personal deliverances. Help them to recognize the error of there
ways if necessary. Then stay with them and ask God what else you
should do to help them get their needs met. You have to be patient
and willing to put in a little bit of your time if necessary. You don’t
164
2007
just pat them on the back, rush them off and send them on their way
without helping them unless you are very sure that is what God is
telling you to do. Help your church to grow and mature as a group.
God has enough blessing so that we all can be happy, not just a few
choice people.
The church, which are Christians, should be led by the Spirit
of God.
165
2007
God’s call, as a pastor. You should not have an attitude of, if people
want to come they can come if they don’t, then fine. If someone has
been coming to church and then you don’t see them for a while you
should call them or go see them and find out if you can help them
in some way. If they have been offended then you should help them
through that.
166
2007
167
2007
If you see someone in need and you can help them in some way,
then you should. Pray for them and ask God what you could do to
help, then DO IT.
I don’t know what is going on in so many churches. Jesus is
coming back to receive a church without spot or wrinkle. He is
coming back to receive a church that walks, lives and breathes who
He really is: LOVE. We need to straighten up and start doing what
God wants us to do. We are supposed to be an example to the world.
We are making God look bad by acting just as self-centered as the
rest of the world acts. It’s sad when God has to use an unbeliever
to bless His children because Christians refuse to be that vessel that
God has called us to be.
When we go to God for help and answers, He will help. There
is no trouble or situation that He cannot get you out of or make you
168
2007
strong enough to walk through. God wants all His children not only
provided for but also blessed. It’s easier for Him to bless us when we
can turn to our brothers and sisters in Christ and let God lead them,
lead each of us accordingly. But if God has to, He will turn sand to
gold or use the resources of Satan to bless His children. He will not
leave you stranded and on your own.
Isaiah 59:10, Amp “We grope for the wall like the blind,
yes, we grope like those who have no eyes. We stumble
at noonday as in the twilight; in dark places and among
those who are full of life and vigor, we are as dead men.”
169
2007
utterance when the elders laid their hands upon you [at
your ordination].
Practice and cultivate and meditate upon these duties;
throw yourself wholly into them [as your ministry], so
that your progress may be evident to everybody.
Look well to yourself [to your own personality] and to
[your] teachings persevere in these things [hold to them],
for by so doing you will save both yourself and those who
hear you.”
Churches get ready. God is getting the message out that Jesus
is coming soon. People are going to start rushing into churches for
help. Be ready to help them. People need salvation to make sure
they don’t miss the rapture. Preach that message and get fired up for
God!!

help you differentiate right and wrong situations and good and bad
people as long as you pay attention to His promptings. But if He
prompts you that what you are doing is not right or that you are not
in a good situation and you just ignore Him and continue to do as
you please, He will back off and allow you to sin if you so choose.
Remember that you have free will: you are free to act as a sinner
even when you are a Christian.
God wants a holy people, people who, by their actions portray
a Christian spirit and lifestyle even when no one is looking. God
doesn’t want us to just blend in with every sinner out there. He wants
us to be separate, living in this world but not being a part of it.
When that spiritual change happens in your life, you will have a
hunger to go tell people about Jesus. You will hunger and thirst for
knowledge of God and want to know Him better. You will want to
please Him and live your life just the way He wants you to.
God wants us to be examples of what a good Christian is
supposed to act like. He doesn’t want us to ride so close to the sin
line that people can’t tell whether we are Christians or not.
A lot of Christians think they can keep the same friends they
had before they were saved and do some of the same things they did
before. I have found that to be very difficult. You end up being just
like the people you hang out with the most.
I personally found it easier to find new friends. The problem I
had—and still have at times—is with family members that are not
Christians. I’ve also learned that you can’t change other people,
especially if they don’t want to change. But you can change your-
self. I made up my mind that if family members do no respect me
for the Christian I choose to be then they can just stay away. I love
them and always will, but I will not go to hell with them. If they
need my help, I will help them if I can, then just forget about it. They
don’t owe me anything. When the family gets together on holidays
and birthdays, I can be kind and sincere without lowering my stan-
dards as a Christian by gossiping, arguing, drinking, cursing, and
pretending to be someone I’m not. I just excuse myself from the
party and say it’s time for me to go home.
I don’t let my children hang out at other people’s houses or with
other children whose parents do not run a Christian household. I want
176
2007
177
2007
178
2007
be able to spot those people. When you do, go ahead and be God’s
witness.
The reason God wants us to be holy, good and right is so He can
use us to fulfill His desire for the whole world. That desire is for
everyone to know Him, love Him and live our lives as He instructs
us to. Make your life holy and acceptable before God so He can use
you as His body here on earth to touch people in a positive way. He
wants you to represent Him. Be His words, His actions. Show His
personality, His kindness, love and forgiveness towards others. He
has great plans for each of us if we allow Him to use us.
The thing God is truly concerned with in your life is your heart
and your soul. That’s what He will be dealing with continuously,
making sure you have a good clean heart full of love, compassion
and sincerity to others. Keep your thoughts and your attitude clear
and pure and the rest of your life will fall in place as it should. God
judges us by our hearts. Wherever your heart is, that is where you
spend your time, money and attention.
Don’t get saved and sit idly by doing nothing for God. Tell others
about Jesus!
The Bible is full of verses where God is telling us what He
expects from every Christian. I have listed just a few of these for
you to study.

FAMILY AND MARRIAGE
Cc
G od had the family unit in mind to fill this earth since the very
beginning of creation. His whole plan was for a man and
woman to get together, commit to one another (get married) and
have children and replenish the earth.
191
2007
192
2007
another from harm and pain. They will want to see one another be
all they can be, full of happiness and joy.
Every family starts out with the lawful union of a man and
woman as husband and wife. The strength of your marriage depends
on the depth of your love and commitment to you spouse. A lot of
marriages do not last even days now, because couples are not really
in love but are rather in lust or infatuated with one another. Then
when the normal trials and tribulations of life come along, they are
not strong enough to hold onto one another.
God made woman for man. Wives, we are to look out for our
man and take care of him. Feed him and clean for him, uplift him
and encourage him. Take care of his physical needs, sexual needs, and
emotional needs. Honor and respect him as the head of the household.
Men are to take care of their wives. Provide for all their neces-
sities of shelter, food, and safety. Take care of her physical, sexual
and emotional needs. Uplift her, encourage her, and make her feel
special and beautiful. Honor and respect her.
Though one person maybe strong, two together are stronger.
With God in the relationship, the two become three. Three people
standing together are strong and not easily defeated.
193
2007
When God and true love bind two people together they can with-
stand anything that comes along. God said that when you marry, you
become one with your spouse.
Mathew 19:6, KJV “So then they are no longer two, but
one flesh.”
God expects you to stay married for life. That’s where “until
death do us part” comes from.
Ephesians 5:23, 25, 28, 31, 33, Amp “For the husband is
head of the wife as Christ is Head of the Church, Himself
the Savior of His body.
Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church
and gave Himself up for her,
194
2007
195
2007
is love. When you accept Jesus as your Savior, you receive God,
TRUE LOVE inside yourself. You become a new person, one who
is driven and influenced by this true LOVE, and not be evil and self-
ishness. Once you have that true LOVE you are able to share it with
others around you. You can’t give something you don’t have. People
who have true LOVE expect true LOVE in return.
Non-believers don’t understand and possess true love so they
can’t give it to others. That emptiness on the inside of them, the lack
of true LOVE, causes them to be continually searching for some-
thing to fill the void. They don’t feel content and satisfied. ONLY
CHRISTIANS HAVE TRUE LOVE IN THEIR LIVES AND ONLY
CHRISTIANS CAN GIVE TRUE LOVE TO ONE ANOTHER.
When a sinner and a Christian get together, God says they are
“unequally yoked.” It is like trying to mix oil with water. This causes
a problem. There will be a multitude of problems from finance to
sex to child-rearing if a Christian and non-Christian try to have a
relationship. Christians should stick with Christians. Period.

God says nothing about marrying outside your own race, but
he has plenty to say about marrying outside your spiritual beliefs.
If you are having sex with someone, whether living together, as
though you are married or not, this is called fornication. God says
fornicators have no place in Heaven. IF you are doing this, you are
outside God’s will.
Two people of the same sex living together as mates, or just
having sexual relations are called homosexuals. God says homo-
sexuals have no place in Heaven. If you are a homosexual, you are
outside God’s will.
Married people who are having sex outside and in addition to
their marriage are called adulterers. People who are single and have
sex with a married person are adulterers. God says adulterers have
no place in Heaven. Adulterers are living outside God’s will.
197

eventually have children of their own. Then the cycle repeats itself.
This is just what God wanted us to do.
God did not want people to get married, have a few kids, argue
and fight with one another, then divorce. This causes the children
to have unhappy childhoods and to become unhappy adults. Make
sure you are bringing children into this world not for the sport of
it but because you are ready to devote your life to them, raising
them up to adults in the fear of the Lord. Be an example for your
children to follow. Don’t tell them one thing while they watch you
do the opposite.
Love your children and teach them to love God. Teach your chil-
dren about respect and honor and integrity. The best way to teach is
by being an example yourself. Don’t lie, cheat, and steal and then
tell them not to. Don’t smoke, drink and do drugs and tell them not
to. Don’t curse, yell, scream and fight and tell them not to. Children
are products of their environments. Children can only be and do
what they have been taught to be and do.
198
2007
They are not living happy, calm family lives. These children are just
reacting the best way they can to their environment and surround-
ings. These children are trying to survive and cope with everything
that is going on around them. Stop medicating your children and
spend some time with them loving them and making them feel
special. That’s all they really want and need.
You must also set boundaries and limits for your children. You
have to talk to them and tell them what you expect from them,
and then be an example for them to follow. If they mess us—and
they will—you should have told them about the consequences and
punishment for their bad choices in advance so they know what to
expect. Then, follow through with whatever you’ve said. Make sure
the punishment is in balance, or equal to, appropriate, for the bad
behavior. Don’t tell them how bad they are, tell them how wrong
their behavior is and how it is unacceptable. Tell them what kind of
behavior you expect from them and then be their example to follow.
This is what God does to us as His children. He tells us how we are to
live and what He expects from us, as well as what will happen to us if
we do not listen to Him and obey. He disciplines us because He loves
us and so should we discipline our children because we love them.
Proverbs 13:24, KJV “He who spares his rod hates his
son, but he who loves him disciplines him promptly.”

late to fix it and to get on the right track. Of course you both have to
be willing to make changes. Both of you start going to church. Ask
Jesus to come into your hearts and forgive your sins. From that point
on, only live the way God expects you to. He will forgive you and
bless you. He will help you get on track and stay there.

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

201
SO WHAT’S GOING ON?
Cc
I pray I’ve been able to convey to you the lifestyle God expects
from you. I pray that you understand you must have a relation-
ship with God and spend time with Him and His word on a daily
basis. You must receive Jesus as your Savior. You will need this
foundation in your life to be able to handle tomorrow.
So then what’s going on? Well, there are a lot of things going on
especially in government that you may not be aware of. God will
hold government leaders responsible their actions and decisions.
Most things happening in government were prophesized and written
in the Bible over 2000 years ago. We are at a point here in the US,
that we can not count on our government to look out for us and
make Godly choices for us because the government is separating
themselves from God. DO NOT PUT ALL YOUR TRUST IN THE
GOVERNMENT. DO NOT COUNT ON THEM TO TAKE CARE
OF YOU AND YOUR BASIC DAILY NEEDS!
What a lot of people are seeing happen is the end of this world
system as we know it. I know people have been talking about the
world ending since Jesus’ day. I do not believe the world (this earth),
is going to end any time real soon. I do believe however, that life on
earth will be greatly destroyed just like in the days of Noah. We will
not only cause major destruction to our own selves, but God’s wrath
will be poured out upon the earth as well.
God has described the last days, the last of the last days (where
we are right now), the rapture, tribulation, millennium, Heaven,
203
2007

2007
today have spent their whole lives researching and interpreting the
scripture. Go to your Christian bookstore and see what they have to
offer. I suggest you read your Bible and ask God to reveal Himself
to you and give you revelation of the scriptures. God is not going to
contradict Himself or any of the Word He has given us thus far. It
will all blend together and just be more complete and detailed.
God has given me a message to share with this world. He has
shown me things up to the rapture of the church, (God’s people). I do
not have a clear revelation of the details and order of events that are
going to happen after the rapture. God, I’m sure, has not shown me
everything that is going to happen before the rapture. He has shown
me some things however. God has given me a specific assignment.
I will share with you only what I know and what God has told me.
I will give you scripture so you can read things for yourself. When
God gives someone a revelation or a prophecy it never goes against
the revelation and prophecies He has already given. It just adds more
in depth understanding or details. If you were trying to explain the
computer world to people 100 years ago, they would have probably
just laughed at you, not understanding that it could be possible. So
some revelation and prophecies are given later in time as we are
capable and open to understanding them.

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

207
WHY IS JESUS COMING NOW?
Cc
209
2007
Keeping these two verses in mind, and going back to the begin-
ning in Genesis, God created the world in six days and the seventh
day He rested.
The six days of creation parallels with the six thousand years
before the rapture and tribulation happens. The seventh day of rest
parallels with the one thousand year millennium, thus painting a
picture of God declaring the end from the beginning.
The end of the six thousand years will be around the year 2000
A.D. I say around the year 2000, because we could have lost or
gained some time along the way since the beginning. God has kept
the time perfectly though. The rapture will happen at the exact time
God had planned. God operates on His calendar, at His timeline,
NOT OURS.
210
2007
Anyway, since it’s past the year 2000, this is why many prophets
believe our time is running out and we are on the verge of seeing
Jesus return.
Another comparison of how God declares the beginning from
the end is found in Mathew 24:37-39, “But as the days of Noah
were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. So as in the
days that were before the flood, they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered
into the ark. And knew not until the flood came, and took them
all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be.”
There was only one Christian, obedient family in the earth at that
time, which was Noah, his wife, and their three sons and wives.
You should read the whole story about Noah and the flood for
yourself in Genesis chapter 6, 7 and 8. God was sorry He made
man. The earth was filled with violence. No one lived the way God
wanted them to. They chose death. So the earth was flooded and the
ungodly was destroyed. The world did not end but sin and sinful
people were killed and removed. Noah served God, so God saved
him and his family.
211
2007
2 Peter 2:4-9, “For if God did not spare the angels who
sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them
into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and
did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of
eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the
flood on the world of the ungodly;
And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into
ashes condemned them to destruction, making them an
example to those who afterward would live ungodly;
And delivered righteous Lot who was oppressed with
the filthy conduct of the wicked (for that righteous man,
dwelling among them, tormented his righteous son from
day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds) then the
Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations
and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day
of judgment.”
212
2007
Genesis 6:13, “And God said unto Noah, the end of all flesh
is come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through
them; and behold I will destroy them with the earth.”

along with the crowd. Yes, this world is on the verge of massive
destruction, but you don’t have to be part of it. You can be saved.
God definitely has a plan to save His children from the destruction
of the world. You don’t have to be a great Bible scholar or prophet to
know that. It’s all written in plain English in the Bible. God’s chil-
dren know His great love and goodness. We trust in His promise to
protect us. God does not try to catch His children by surprise. God
is not a sneaky, backdoor, sucker punch God. He is open and honest
and always let you know ahead of time what is going to happen. He
lets you know up front. He tells you what to expect, when to expect
it and how to prepare for it.
God is a good father. It’s like when your parents were going out
to dinner when you were a kid. They decided to let you stay home
alone and babysit yourself. They said, “while we are gone you better
not mess up this house.” Of course you acted up while they were
gone and messed up the house. But your Mom and Dad call and say,
“we will be home in 30 minutes.” Great, that gave you plenty of
time to clean things up. If you were foolish and didn’t clean things
up, then you got in trouble when they got home. God does not want
to punish anyone and send anyone to Hell. That’s why He is telling
you now, I AM COMING! Clean up your house and calm yourself
down. You have time right now to ask Jesus to forgive you of your
sins and start all over. Don’t wait. Don’t be foolish.
The world, the sinners, the unbelievers, were taken by surprise
in Noah’s day, but Noah wasn’t. Noah and his family knew exactly
what God was doing and exactly when He was doing it. God told
them. God revealed His plans to Noah and prepared a safe place for
them while life was being destroyed on earth.
218
2007
You shall take with you seven each of every clean animal,
a male and his female; two each of animals that are
unclean, a male and his female;
Also seven each of the birds of the air, male and
female, to keep the species alive on the face of the earth.
For after seven more days, I will cause it to rain on the
earth, forty days and forty nights, and I will destroy from
the face of the earth all living things that I have made.
And Noah did according to all that the Lord
commanded him.
Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of
waters was on the earth.
So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons wives,
went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.
Of clean beast, of beasts that are unclean, of birds
and of everything that creeps on the earth,
Two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and
female, as God had commanded Noah.
And it came to pass after seven days that the waters
of the flood were on the face of the earth.”
The same way God warned and protected Noah and his family
from destruction, God is warning and protecting His children now.
God never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.
God loves us. He’s a good father. He’s not going to let His children
go through any unbearable suffering, tribulation and destruction that
is coming to this earth. He’s going to take us away in the rapture first.
If you get left behind, don’t be fooled by people, newspaper, politi-
cians or anyone else. No one will want to admit that God Himself has
removed us from the earth. They will try to find some other reason.
They may say aliens took us away, or comets or some other scientific
explanation. They may even say that finally the troublemakers and
evildoers have been removed. I don’t know what kind of lies will be
told. All I know is we are not the evil ones. We are the saved. Jesus
will come get us and we will be safely in His care.
The Bible says we are going to be carrying on our every day
lives, then a trumpet will sound, cemetery graves will open of past
219
Christians, bodies removed, then the living Christians will all disap-
pear from the earth. Christians, the good people, not the bad. Also at
the rapture, Jesus is not going to come down to the earth to get us,
He is going to appear in the Eastern sky, call us up, take His chil-
dren and leave. He’s not going to hang out here on the earth during
the tribulation either. So if any person, machine object or whatever
starts proclaiming to be Jesus or God and starts demanding your
worship, don’t do it. Even if they perform miracles or magic, it’s
just a lie, a deception. Jesus won’t be back to earth till the Battle of
Armageddon at the end of the tribulation and He will be bringing all
the Saints (children of God) back with Him when He comes.
To be able to hear from God and not be taken by surprise, and
be able to leave with us in the rapture and not be left behind, you
need to be saved and born again. That’s all you have to do to be
RAPTURE READY. God made it real easy for us. Please do it right
now. No matter where you are. You don’t have to be in church to be
saved. Drop down on your knees right where you are, and ask Jesus
to come into your life and save you.

Again I stress, God will not try to catch you off guard. He will
speak to you if you are listening. If you are not listening, He will
speak to someone else and have them tell you what He has to say,
especially about something as spectacular as the rapture. I talk to
God every day and He talks to me. I know His voice and He knows

then do not go for it. There is no new religion. There is only one
God, one way to Heaven (Jesus), and one Bible. Do not be deceived
and drawn into something that offers you power or a better more
sophisticated, classy, in style religion.
I believe if we are true Christians, living right for God and relying
on His constant guidance and direction in life, then we have nothing
to worry about or be upset over. Rely on God. Listen to Him daily.
He will tell you where to go and not go. He will tell you what to do
and not do. God speaks to His children and His children hear His
voice. He’s a good father who takes good care of His children. Just
because we are living in a world full of destruction and evil does
not mean it will affect us. God has a way of protecting us no matter
what’s going on around us.

THE LAST DAYS
Cc
W e are living in the last hours of what God calls the last days.
The last days started at the birth of Jesus and ends when
Jesus comes back to earth.
The last of the last days are marked by a certain generation. Our
generation. This NOW generation.
231
2007
Don’t let the terrorism scare you. Terrorism will happen and be
on the increase. These things will happen; wars and rumors of wars.
Just be aware of it. The Bible says it’s the beginning of sorrows.
Daniel 12:4, “shut up the words and seal the book until
the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowl-
edge shall increase.”
Over the past 50-100 years, our generation has seen tremendous
changes. Electricity, television, telephones, cars, planes, and medi-
cine are just a few. And most recently we have space shuttles, nuclear
medicine, and atomic bombs. We have computers, microwaves,
lasers, VCR’s, camcorders, cellular phones, faxes, pagers, and satel-
lites. Things are being discovered so fast it’s mind-boggling.
232
2007
233
2007
234
2007
The earth and nature are even being affected by the plague of
evil. Natural disasters are going to be on the increase. Uncontrollable
fires, fierce hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, mudslides, drought,
floods and much more that you just have no control over. Disasters
that is more extreme and happening more often.
Another sign that it’s the last of the last days is found in 2 Peter
3:3&4. It says, “knowing this first: that scoffers will come in
the last days walking according to their own lust; and saying,
‘Where is the promise of His coming?’ for since the fathers fell
asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of
creation.”
People will mock Christians. They’ll say, “I thought Jesus was
coming back.” Or they might say, “I thought the world was going to
end.” When we try to tell people about the rapture and the end of the
world they are really just turned off by it. They don’t want to hear.
They just don’t think anything is going to happen anytime soon, not
to them an especially not in their lifetime.
People who don’t have a clue Jesus is coming soon are the people
who are not Christians. God talks to His children and prepares His
children for all things.
235
2007
have a relationship with them. You speak to them and them with you
and their voice is distinct.
You will know God’s voice when He talks to you if you spend
enough time with Him. His voice is not audible it’s an inner voice
you will hear in your soul, but just as loud and clear as though it
were audible.
There is no reason for Christians to worry or be afraid of the end
of time. Talk to God and listen for Him to direct you and your family
on a daily basis. But if you are not a Christian you have plenty to
be afraid of. You will not escape the horror that is coming upon the
earth. God said at the end of the world, things would be so bad that
you can’t even imagine it. This world has never suffered that kind
of abomination and tribulation. And it will be everywhere, not just
in certain areas. God is saving that kind of misery till the end for
the ones who would not live their lives for Him. God is good. He is
love. He is trying to warn you now to give you a chance to choose
to turn your life over to Him before all Hell breaks loose so He can
protect you.
If you choose to wait, that’s not God’s fault, that’s your fault.
Don’t wait till after the rapture to start crying out to God. The choice
is yours and the time is NOW!
God has revealed to me that in these last days, before the rapture
of the church, a lot of people are going to suffer financially. I do not
know exactly what is going to cause it, but people are going to loose
their jobs and will not have money coming in. Do not count on your
job and your paycheck to supply all your needs in the very last days.
Save some money. Get yourself set up now and pay off your homes
and cars. Do not buy on credit. If you do not have your possessions
paid for, it will be real easy to loose them before the rapture. There
will also be many people without water and electric. I do not know
why water and electric will be turned off, but go ahead and prepare
for those days now. Buy generators. Keep a stock of food and water
on hand. I live in Florida and we have learned to keep emergency
supplies on hand because of hurricanes. No matter where you live,
everyone will need to have some backup supplies
Also, the government is not your friend. I love the United States.
I am so glad I live here and not anywhere else. However, we have

THE RAPTURE

239
THE RAPTURE
Cc
I f you are a Christian you know that God is preparing His children
for the rapture right now. This is the next prophetic event that is
going to happen.
The rapture is not the end of the world. The rapture is a wonderful
event for Christians. We will be removed from earth and will be
in Heaven with Jesus and all our Christian loved ones, family and
friends. We will have an awesome family reunion party when we
are raptured. Don’t feel sad for us when we are gone. We will feel
sad for you for being left behind. It will be the beginning of terrible
tribulation for the ones here on earth who are left behind.
The rapture is the sudden, supernatural removal of all the chil-
dren of God from earth to Heaven. It is an event when Jesus will
appear in the air and call everyone both living and dead that has
trusted Jesus as Savior home to Heaven. Rapture is a Greek word
that means, “caught up.”
241
2007
242
2007
Putting all these scriptures together, we can see that we are going
to be carrying on our everyday lives, then a trumpet will sound,
Jesus will appear in the eastern skies, and the Christians who have
died and are buried will be raised from the dead from their graves
first and taken to Heaven. Then the other Christians who remain
on earth will vanish and be taken up to Heaven. We shall all at this
point be given new immortal, undying, indestructible bodies. This
whole process will happen so very quickly; in a twinkling of an eye.
One second we are here and the next second we are gone. We’ve got
243
2007
244
2007
God is good. He’s a great Father. He loves His children and would
not allow us to suffer through the tribulation period. He has always
protected His children who believed in Him and removed them from
danger before total destruction came.
The rapture is a wonderful time for Christians. Christians won’t
suffer through the tribulation because the tribulation is a period
of time when the wrath of God will be poured out upon all flesh
because of sin. Jesus Christ paid our penalty for sin when He shed
His blood on the cross.
Give your life to Jesus and get saved today. Don’t put it off any
longer. BE READY!!!
There’s no other way to escape the wrath of God that is coming
upon this earth, except by Jesus Christ our Savior.

This verse means there will be many people coming who are
against Jesus Christ and what Christ stands for. But there will be
one man in particular who has a very deep, sick plan to somehow
conquer the world and try to force people to worship him. God will
allow him to succeed for awhile.
When the rapture takes place there will be worldwide massive
confusion. There will be planes, trains and cars crashing everywhere,
into everything. Worse than the September 11th attack. With so many
people vanishing all at once, with no logical, scientific explanation,
this world will be looking for someone to come on the scene and
tell them comforting words and reestablish order and a sense of
normalcy back into their lives. The Anti-Christ will be that person.
He will be a man in politics who will arise, probably from Europe.
He is there now working out his plan and laying low, waiting for his
time. He cannot do anything until God is ready to allow it. God will
make sure His children are safe and out of the way first.

that come before it, and it had ten horns, symbolizing ten
kings.
I considered the horns, and behold, there came up
among them another horn, a little one, before which
three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots; and
behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man and
a mouth speaking great things.”
God will allow the Anti-Christ to deceive the people and rule for
a period of seven years. He probably will not show his true colors
and personality for the first three and a half years.
255
2007
He will sign a seven year peace treaty with Israel and the Middle
East. But after 31⁄2 years he will break it. When the peace treaty is
signed with Israel, one of the stipulations is that the Jews will be
able to start daily sacrifices in the new temple. The Anti-Christ will
allow this for 31⁄2 years then he’ll stop it.
The Anti-Christ will be intellectual, probably very good looking
and have overwhelming magnetism and leadership.

into his hand for a time, two times, and half a time (three
and one-half years).”
257
2007
The Anti-Christ is the one man who will lead the people who
were left behind from the rapture through a seven-year hell on earth
period called the TRIBULATION.
The Anti-Christ will be a world dictator. Not just a United States
or Russian or European dictator. He will try to take over and dictate
this whole world government. That’s a clue there that tells you the
US leadership is going to bow out to our beliefs and come under a
union with the rest of the world, which is not godly. He will try to
control everyone. We will not stop this from happening. The plan is
already at work and in the final stages. The rapture and tribulation is
coming soon. Get ready.
The Anti-Christ is already known and holding a position of polit-
ical power somewhere in the world today. He will not be revealed
and thought of or hold a position of world dictator and Anti-Christ
until after the rapture. Until then we just know him as a political
representative of a certain country.
The world is speaking. The world is inviting the Anti-Christ in and
probably do not even realize that they are falling right into his hands.
The world is rejecting God and what God stands for. God does not
go against our choices. If the majority of the world votes and invites
the Anti-Christ in, God will honor that. The people have spoken.
258
2007
They are against God and His ways. Most of the world is against the
United States. The US has been a loud voice for God in this world.
If we reject God, then God will not have a voice in the world and a
vessel to work through. He will have no choice but remove His chil-
dren and allow the world to reap the consequences of their choices,
which is the Anti-Christ, tribulation, death and destruction.
The Anti-Christ will be here to speak against God, try to get
people to follow his teachings instead of God’s teachings and to
cause war with the saints of God and cause trouble.
When the Anti-Christ comes on the scene to reveal himself, he
won’t be wearing a red suit, long tail, and a pitchfork in his hand.
He’s going to capture people with his sex appeal, magnetism, charm
and intellectual talk on a wide scale basis.
Remember Satan was the most beautiful of all the angels and he
knows how we as a society give reverence to the good looking, rich
and powerful people. We look up to them for some reason.
Watch out for him. He’s a liar and a killer and he doesn’t like
you at all. Satan steals, kills and destroys.

These stood before the throne and before the Lamb; they
were attired in white robes, with palm branches in their
hands.
In loud voice they cried, saying Our salvation is due
to our God, Who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb
to Them we owe our deliverance!
And all the angels were standing round the throne
and round the elders of the heavenly Sanhedrin and the
four living creatures, and they fell prostrate before the
throne and worshiped God.
Amen! So be it! They cried. Blessing and glory and
majesty and splendor and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and might be ascribed to our God to the ages
and ages forever and ever, throughout the eternities of
the eternities! Amen! So be it!
Then, addressing me, one of the elders of the heav-
enly Sanhedrin said, Who are these people clothed in the
long white robes? And from where have they come?
I replied, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are
they who have come out of the great tribulation (persecu-
tion), and have washed their robes and made them white
in the blood of the Lamb.
For this reason they are now before the very throne
of God and serve Him day and night in His sanctuary
(temple); and He Who is sitting upon the throne will
protect and spread His tabernacle over and shelter them
with His presence.
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst no more;
neither shall the sun smite them, nor any scorching heat.
For the Lamb Who is in the midst of the throne will
be their Shepherd, and He will guide them to the springs
of the waters of life; and God will wipe away every tear
from their eyes.”
I don’t want to take my chances and miss the first rapture. You
should not either just incase they are wrong and have interpreted the
Bible wrong.

The last 3 1/2 years is called the Great Tribulation. The Anti-
Christ will break his peace treaty with Israel and turn his anger
toward them. The Anti-Christ will usurp his power and demand
people’s worship and obedience to him. If you don’t do as he says
he’ll have you killed. Anti-Christ is going to be worse then any
heartless psycho you can think of.
You absolutely do not want to be here during the tribulation.
Your money is not going to do you any good. Your prestige or popu-
larity is not going to get you any favor or special treatment. If you
don’t go by his rules you’ll be punished or destroyed. This is why
God is going through so much trouble right now to warn you. This
is also why God is going to remove His children completely from
the earth, because it’s going to be so awful here with nowhere for
all of us to hide. God wants you to go ahead and get ready to make
the trip now.
If there was a place we could all go and hide to escape the
destruction and trouble then God would tell us where it is so we
could go there. But there’s not a place. The whole world will be
horrifically affected. Movies do a good job portraying what we can
imagine the end to be like, but the Bible says things are going to be
far worse then anyone can imagine.
Tribulation means, great affliction and distress. It’s an experi-
ence that tests ones endurance, patience and faith. The tribulation
is going to be a time that no one in this world has ever seen and it’s
going to be wide spread. Think of the worse time and place you can
and the tribulation is greater than that. Is it Vietnam? World War
I or II? The Holocaust? The Tribulation will exceed your wildest
thoughts. There’s really no good way to prepare for it except to get
saved and go up in the rapture.
Those awful wars that have been happening in the other coun-
tries are going to be happening right here in the US as well. Worse
265
2007
than anything has ever happened. All your money and your gated,
secured homes are not going to matter.
The tribulation is a time God has set aside to pour out His wrath
upon those wicked ones who have rejected Him. As loving as God
is, His wrath is equally extreme.
Some theologians teach that the tribulation period will not be so
bad. This is not true. It will be bad, worse than your imagination can
imagine.
Not only will government and people be evil and wicked, making
your life a living hell that you can’t get away from; there will be
unimaginable natural disasters as well. The Bible says the whole
planet will shake and tremble from it all. There will be storms and
hurricanes. There will be typhoons, earthquakes and huge meteors
crashing to the earth. Plagues of snakes, bugs and rodents. There
will be uncontrollable fires, sickness, death and incurable diseases.
There will be nuclear wars and explosions and the effects of that.
People will beg to die!!!

Daniel 12:1, “At that time Michael shall stand up, the
Great Prince who stand watch over the sons of your
people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never
was a nation, even to that time your people shall be deliv-
ered, everyone who is found written in the Book.”
From these verses, we know people will flee to the caves of the
mountains to hide from the awful conditions during the tribulation.
People will be fleeing and running and hiding not only from
the natural disasters but also from the killing and violence going on
among the people.
Today we try to think of the government, police department, and
people in authority as someone on our side who protects us and looks
out for us. Well during the tribulation it’s not going to be like that.
Government and police and such will be against the people. You
won’t have any rights or freedom. You’ll be controlled and dictated
to. If you don’t co-operate you’ll be destroyed.
The Anti-Christ has three objectives to achieve during the
tribulation. His goal is to rule the world, make everyone worship
268
2007
The mark of the beast has deep meaning. When you accept the
mark you are proclaiming to God, the world, and Satan that your
soul now belongs to Satan. You are saying that you except his way
of doing things. You are also saying you deny God and everything
He stands for. The mark symbolizes a spiritual confession about
yourself. It also serves as a political statement. I believe this mark
not only will be some kind of computer chip that will contain all of
your personal identification, it will be a way for you to be tracked
down and found so you can’t hide from the government. It will be
an outward tattoo or branding so you can be identified quickly by

fact the Bible says except those days be shortened not one person
will survive. Don’t take a chance. Get saved now so you won’t have
to experience the catastrophe of the tribulation period.
Please give your heart to Jesus so you’ll go up with us in the
rapture. Do it now for yourself and for your family.

Armies from all over the world are going to come by the millions
to Armageddon being led by Satan, and end up slaughtered by the
armies of God led by Jesus Christ Himself.
Of course, Jesus and the Saints win in the end and the Anti-
Christ , Satan and false prophets are thrown into the Lake of Fire.

W hen Jesus and the saints some down to defeat Satan at the

of Jesus Christ and the end of the tribulation period. Satan will be
bound and cast away.
All sinners and evil will be defeated and removed. Jesus will set

and for the Word of God, and which had not worshipped
the beast, neither his image, neither had received his
mark upon their foreheads or in their hand; and they
lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.”
From this verse we see there are going to be soul’s saved during
the tribulation period, but they will probably be killed for being a
Christian and not excepting the mark of the beast.
When Jesus and the saints come back to earth after the tribula-
tion, we are going to live here for a thousand years with Jesus in
charge, running the country. Jerusalem will be the capital city where
Jesus will reign over the entire world.
Zechariah 14:9, “And the Lord shall be King over all the
earth; in that day shall there be one Lord and His name
One.”

We will finally see a perfect world and a life of joy, love, happi-
ness and righteousness God intended us to have from the very
beginning.
The curse of sin will be gone. Satan, demons, evil, sickness, and
death, they will all be gone forever.
During this thousand-year reign we will learn all about Jesus and
God. We will be able to see them face to face and talk to them. We
will experience God’s love in full measure, NO HINDERANCES.
What a wonderful time that will be!!!

HELL AND THE PEOPLE
GOING THERE
Cc
Hell is an awful place. It is not a place where all the sinners will
get together and hang out throughout eternity doing whatever they
have been doing here on earth. I have spoken to a lot of people about
the rapture; telling them to accept Jesus as Savior so they will not be
left behind and go to Hell. People have said to me they are not ready
to live for God. They have said, “Oh well, if the rapture happens,
291
2007
I guess I’ll just miss it and go to Hell then. They talk like going to
Hell is not going to be so bad. Are people really that ignorant?
People are not sitting around in Hell watching porn, having sex,
doing drugs, getting drunk and partying. Hell is a place of torture,
torment, agony, pain and suffering that never ends. Hell is scary and
dark. It is a place of intense misery and fear. The horrific state of Hell
is so terrible, I can not find the words to describe it. You do not want
to go there. This torture will last forever, not just a few years. The little
bit of pleasurable sin you might be having now, does not compare to
the eternity of pain that you will endure. It is not worth it.
Turn your back on sin. Say no and change your ways. Accept
Jesus as Savior and make the right choices. Life is a series of choices.
Daily choices. You get to choose every day whether to live right for
God or not.
God gives you the right to choose Him. He does not force
Himself on you.
As said before, once you accept Jesus as your Savior, God writes
your name down in the Lambs Book of Life.
And what kind of people will not be found in the Book of Life?
292

that God created and twisted it. So lets talk about sexual sins and
perversion. People who abuse themselves and others through sexual
acts will not be in Heaven, you will go to Hell. It does not matter if
it is willing or unwilling sexual acts. People who have sex of any
sorts outside the marriage vows between one man and one woman
are sinning. Sexual perversion is exploding all over the world, even
in America. Some things people do are just sick and twisted. People
are not ashamed of there sexual escapades and performances. They
are proud. They like it. They think it is impressive. They like to
share and brag about their sexual activities with other people.
294
2007
Mathew 5:31, “It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away
his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement.”
We have all this media going on about gay rights and homo-
sexuality. Homosexuals are bold, loud and proud of their lifestyle.
295
2007
296
2007
sexuals in Heaven. Never have been and never will be. God has a
special place in the pit of Hell for you.
If you are involved in homosexuality or any sexual perversion or
lifestyle, God wants you to know that He loves you, but He will not
tolerate or accept your sinful lifestyle. You sins have consequences.
God’s rules and laws does not change. If you choose to live your
life in sin, your consequence is Hell and God will let you go there.
Homosexuality is a sin. As far as being born that way, yes, we were
all born into this world as a sinner, everyone of us. We are all born
with a sinful nature. Our soul, spirit and personality is influenced
by Satan. We are born into this world that way, some with stronger
demons to overcome than others. But as said in earlier chapters,
all sinners have a choice to make at some point in their lives. You
choose to turn to God for strength to overcome your sinful nature.
He is the only One who can change your sinful desires to godly
desires. The blood of Jesus is the only thing that can take away your
sins. There is no sin or demonic spirit that is too powerful for Jesus
Christ to cleanse you of.
Get down on your knees right now and ask Jesus to forgive you
and change you. Tell Him you are sorry and you do not want to live
that way anymore. Find a church that teaches the biblical principals
of God and preaches that homosexuality is wrong. Go there. Get
support. Stop hanging out with homosexuals and sexually immoral
people. Christians should not hang out with sinners. Be strong. No
friends are better than having bad friends.
Get your Bible out. Read the book. Find out what is right and
what is wrong. Find out what is sin and what is not sin. If God said
it was sin when the Bible was written, then it is still sin. Government
laws can’t change that. Social acceptance can’t change that. Your
therapist, psychologist or psychiatrist can’t change that. Your pastor
or preacher can not change a sin to a good thing. God is the only
judge. God has the last word. The Bible is God’s word. God never
changes. He never changes His mind. His word never changes.
Don’t trust the government to tell you what is right and what is
wrong. Don’t trust anyone but God to tell you what is right and what
is wrong. Get your Bible and read it for yourself. We used to be one
nation under God, and one nation living godly, but we have become
297
2007
corrupt and ungodly. Sadly we are still the best place to live in this
whole world, but we have gradually slipped away from what God
wanted us to be.
Sexual perversion and homosexuality have been around since
the beginning of time. Sexual perversion and homosexuality were
around in Jesus’ day as well. Satan has no new tricks. We are just a
new generation in a different period of time.
Sodom and Gomorrah were two cities in the Bible that God
destroyed because of their wicked, evil ways and sexual immorality.
It was called Sodom because of the sodomy and homosexuality that
was going on there. The full story of Sodom and Gomorrah is found
in the book of Genesis. God destroys the two cities and refers back to
the story throughout the whole Bible, for us to learn from them. God
told them their sins were wrong, if they did not change, they would
be destroyed and that is exactly what God did. He will not tolerate or
excuse sexual immorality and homosexuality. God destroyed the two
cities except for Abraham and Lot and their families. God warned
them ahead of time and told them where to go for safety.
298
2007
God tells us over and over that He will not allow people to
escape their sins and sexual immorality.
299
2007
God sent His apostles out to warn people to change from their
wickedness before judgment came.
2 Peter 2:4-9 (NIV), “For if God did not spare the angels
when they sinned, but sent them to Hell, putting them
into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment; if He did
not spare the ancient world when He brought the flood
on it’s ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher
of righteousness and seven others; if He condemned the
cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes,
and made them an example of what is going to happen to
the ungodly; and if He rescued Lot a righteous man who
was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men;
…if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly
men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day
of judgment while continuing their punishment.”
300
2007
301
2007
Just because you don’t do bad things, doesn’t mean you’re OK.
If you enjoy watching people do bad things, God says you’re just as
bad as they are.
Most people know in their heart what is right or wrong. God makes
things very clear in the Bible what is right and what is wrong.
302
2007
Mathew 7:21, “Not every one that saith unto Me, Lord,
Lord shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he that
doeth the will of My Father which is in Heaven.”
This does not mean all rich people are going to Hell. It means
people who think they are all that because of their money, and most
but not all do, have the wrong attitude. It means people who think
they are better than others because they have money. It also means
people who are selfish and greedy and refuse to help those who have
not been as blessed. People who can afford to just do good for others
303
2007
but they refuse to. People who trust that because they have money
they are safe and secure and don’t have anything to worry about. It’s
people who trust in whatever they think their money can do for them
rather than what God can do for them. It’s people who forget that
they would not have what they have if it wasn’t for the blessings of
God on their life.
God expects us to have a good, clean, forgiving, helpful, merciful,
heart and mind.
He expects us to believe in Him and consider Him very real and
the most important person in our lives.
He expects us to do what His written word says. He expects
us to listen to Him and do what He speaks to us to do, even if we
don’t understand why. We just do it because He said so and He
knows best.
When we hold rebellion, disobedience, unforgiveness, and
anything but love in our hearts for God and others, then we are
sinning and in danger of Hell.
God wants us to love Him above anything and anyone. He wants
us to be willing to give up everything we have and give ourselves to
Him. He wants our complete devotion.
The more mature of a Christian you are depends on the depth of
love you have for God and the depth of understanding you have for
His word and His ways.
God says if you love Him you do what He says. If you disobey
God on a continual basis then you don’t love Him, you don’t belong
to Him and your going to Hell.
Test yourself. The rules and laws of God are given to identify
sin, so you know what’s right and wrong. They are not given to
take the fun out of life. God wants us to have fun. He wants us to
be happy. But society has allowed Satan to come into their lives and
twist the goodness of God.
There’s nothing wrong with music, dancing, sports, movies,
partying, all kinds of things we like to do to entertain ourselves
are OK with God. What makes it wrong is when we make it nasty,
sexual, violent, destructive, and hurtful. That’s taking something
that God meant for our good and allowing Satan to mess it up.
304
2007
1) I, the Lord, am your God. You shall not have other gods
before Me.
2) You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.
3) Remember to keep holy the Sabbath Day.
4) Honor your father and your mother.
5) You shall not kill.
6) You shall not commit adultery.
7) You shall not steal.
8) You shall not bear false witness (lying) against your
neighbor.
9) You shall not covet your neighbor’s house.
10) You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife.
Only you and God know what’s really in your heart and mind.
The bottom line is if you don’t have true love on the inside of
your heart and show true love to the people in and around your life,
then you are in danger of eternity in Hell. There are only two places
where you can spend eternity. The only people who are going to
be in Heaven are people who possess true love, which can only be
received from God. Everyone else will be in Hell.

God is King, Lord and Majesty. We are His children, princes and

in, as long as we’ve accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, and gotten our
names written down in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

from God. And shining with the glory of God the city
shown like a precious stone, like a jasper clear as crystal.
It had a great high wall, with twelve gates and with
twelve angels in charges of the gates. On the gates were
written the names of the twelve tribes of the people of
Israel.
There were three gates on each side: three on the east,
three on the south, three on the north and three on the
west.
The city’s walls were built on twelve foundations
stones, on which were written the names of the twelve
apostles of the Lamb.
The angel that spoke to me had a gold measuring
stick: it was fifteen hundred miles long and as wide and
as high as it is long.
The angel also measured the wall, and it was 216 feet
high according to the standard unit of measure which he
was using.
The wall was made of jasper, and the city itself was
made of pure gold, as clear as glass.
The foundation stones of the city wall were adorned
with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation
stones was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate,
the fourth emerald,
The fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh yellow
quartz, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chal-
cedony, the eleventh turquoise, the twelfth amethyst.
314
2007
The peoples of the world will walk by its light and the
kinds of the earth will bring their wealth into it.
The gates of the city will stand open all day; they will
never be close, because there will be no night there.
But nothing that is impure will enter the city, not
anyone who does shameful things or tells lies. Only those
whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of the
Living will enter the city.
The angel also showed me the river of the water of
life, sparkling like crystal, and coming from the throne
of God and of the Lamb,
And flowing down the middle of the city’s street. On
each side of the river was the Tree of Life which bears
fruit twelve times a years, once each month; and it’s
leaves are for the healing of the nations.
Nothing that is under God’s curse will be found in the
city. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the
city, and His servants will worship Him.
They will see His face, and His Name will be written
on their foreheads.
There shall be no more night, and they will not need
lamps or sunlight, because the Lord God will be their
Light and they shall rule forever and ever.”

FINAL THOUGHTS –
ONE LAST PLEA
Cc
I can just imagine what some of you may be thinking. These things
may happen but they are a long way off. Well, no it’s not. The
rapture is just right around the corner.
I admit there are a lot of things about the end of time that I’m not
sure of. But God has given me all the information I need to know
and want to know.
My calling, my assignment in life is to bring an awareness to
people that something spectacular is about to happen and we need
to prepare ourselves, our families, and our friends for these events.
It can turn out to be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the
choices we make right now today.
I know some of this may be hard to believe. It’s a lot easier to
tell yourself you don’t believe it, brush it off and go about your life
as you were. But it is all true. All of these things are going to happen
and in the very near future. We all need to make some changes.
Just because you don’t believe something doesn’t make it go
away or leave you exempt from it. Why don’t you just play it safe
and take the time right now to get right with God and stay that way.
Even if the rapture didn’t happen, tomorrow may still not come for
you. Today may be your last chance to get right with God. None of
us know when our time is to leave this earth.
319
2007
Remember that God loves us all very much. He’s a good God and
a good Father. He doesn’t want anything bad to happen to anyone
of us. He could make us love Him, but that’s not the way He does
things. He gives us the freedom and the right to choose. But if we
choose to live a life opposite to what God tells us, then all that’s left
is a life with Satan. We will suffer as a result of that choice.

LEFT BEHIND
Cc
O K. You’re one of those who just wouldn’t trust your life to God
and listen to all the warning. Now you’ve missed the rapture
and you’ve been left behind.
If you missed the rapture that means you were not ready for
Heaven. God took us straight to Heaven when we were raptured.
There are only good, God filled people in Heaven. If you are not
good and God filled, that’s why you are still here.
I can just hear some of you right now saying, “why did God
allow this to happen to me?” People always want to blame God for
their bad choices. If you have been left behind, it’s your fault, not
God’s. God has been telling everyone this day was coming. You just
chose not to listen. Look around, the message has been on television,
radio, newspapers, magazines and billboards. You couldn’t miss it if
you tried. God is merciful and gracious. He did not take anyone by
surprise. He gave everyone a chance to repent.
Now what? I’m not real sure what you might be able to do at this
point. I really don’t think there is a completely safe place anywhere
for you. That’s why God wanted you to go up in the rapture. But
now tribulation has started. You’ll probably want to try to hide away
and not come out till the seven years of tribulation is over.
Since there will be nuclear wars, earthquakes, storms, and total
devastation, maybe under ground or deep in a cave or a mountain
would be the best place. You would still run the risk of the mountain
or cave collapsing and being buried alive. The Bible says mountains

HIS CALL AND SHARING
MY VISION
Cc
I would like to take a moment to share my vision with you and tell
you a little about myself, just in case you are wondering who I
am and what qualifies me to write this book warning people about
the rapture.
I am a married, 25 year so far, mother of 2, and a grandmother
of one. I was born in Waycross, Georgia but moved to Bradenton,
Florida when I was 8 years old.
My Mom and Dad are great people, and though we didn’t attend
church every Sunday as a family, they had strong moral beliefs. They
attended church on a regular basis as children and young adults,
and were dedicated to teaching both my brothers and myself to live
within the guidelines of the Bible. We were sent to private Christian
school and maintained a close family relationship. As far back as I
can remember, I have always believed Jesus loved me and God was
with me. I don’t remember not believing in God.
My Mom and Dad divorced in the mid 70’s. I was 15 years old.
This was tragic for my brothers and me. What we thought were our
perfect little lives had been ripped apart. All our hopes and dreams
just seemed lost. I felt tossed aside and a total mess. I felt like I could
not count on anyone. I was angry and hurt. I felt all alone. My feel-
ings really ruled my life.
329

prayed. I really just wanted to die. I thought I did not want to be here
in this world anymore.
God let me act like that till I decided to have an elective
operation in 2002 and things went wrong and I really did think I was
going to die. I was bed ridden for almost eight months. I had a lot
of time to just think and pray. God showed me that everyone’s life
has a reason. My reason for living was not to just get married, have
children, buy a nice house and entertain myself. Although all that is
great and very fulfilling, I believe my main reason for being born and
living in this day and time is to know the love of God with all my
heart and be used of God in these last days before the rapture. God
helped me see that I do have plenty to live for and I need to fulfill my
assignment from God. I ask forgiveness for my lack of faith. God
touched me, blessed me and showed me I was much stronger than
I thought I was. I knew I was going to make it with God no matter
what was going on in my life. I just wanted to accomplish what God
had called me to do.
In 2003 a woman from church said she had a word from God
for me. It was for me to get the message out that He had given me.
She said now was the time. I immediately thought of the vision God
had given me 17 years earlier. I found the vision that I had written
down, opened it up, and reread it. Everything God had shown me
was going to happen in my life had happened and I knew she was
right, that now is finally the time to release this vision. God was
using this woman to be the voice I had been waiting to hear to tell
me when to release the vision.
I got my book together that I had been working on and submitted
it for publishing. God had shown me in the dream that He was giving
me about 3 years to share this rapture prophecy with the world before
the rapture actually happens.
It’s now January 2004 and so many things have happened in my
life, most of which God had shown me was going to happen, but it
was out of my control, and there was no way for me to change it or
stop it. Going through those trials and tribulations have made me
a stronger person. I’ve experienced and survived many heartaches
and disappointments in my life. Some of them challenged me to the
point that I really did not think I was going to make it through, but
332
2007
I did. God did not give up on me and I did not give up on Him. I
would not change a thing because it has helped me be the person I
am today.
God has a plan and purpose for each one of our lives. He planned
our lives out before we were even born. Some of us get a dream or a
vision. Some of us are prophesied over. Some of us just get a strong
desire or a hunger to accomplish certain things in our lives. Some
of us are blessed with an unmistakable talent that should be shared
with the world. Not one job or one person is more important to God
than another. God uses our life experiences to accomplish things in
the world if we let Him. Though a lot of us can tell of bad childhoods
or circumstances we would have rather avoided, God will take that
and use your passion about it to touch other people’s lives. Those
things we go through in life helps to develop our personalities to be
what God wants so He can use us. One way or another we are all put
here on earth with a particular role to play and a specific assignment
to accomplish at a specific time and place. We choose to follow that
prompting on the inside and listen to that inner voice or reject it.
God will not force us to obey Him. He just backs off and waits for us
to come to our senses and make the right choice. I would have never
been able to do for God 15 years ago, what I am able to do for Him
today. I was too emotional and I was too worried about what people
thought of me. I was insecure and immature spiritually.
Now I am ready and I choose to listen and obey. I didn’t have
to write this book. I knew there would be people that would think I
was crazy or that I was a false prophet. There are always going to be
haters and gossipers no matter what you do. But I feel honored that
God has such a spectacular plan for my life and actually wants to
use me to give people a message from Him in these last days. I have
no defense against any negative accusations nor do I care to try to
come up with one. People will see this prophecy come to pass. The
prophecy will speak for itself.

God has revealed to me the year and the season when the rapture
will happen. No one is going to change my mind about that. God
speaks to me often, as He does many of His children. If you are
familiar with the voice of God, once you hear Him speak to you, no
one can tell you different. You know His voice. You just know that
you know that you heard from Him. I know a lot of people have
questioned whether I really did hear from God. All I can say is, yes I
did. If anyone really knew God and His word, they would know this
is how God operates.
Jesus will come to save us in the same way people were saved and
warned in the days of Noah. God told Noah it will rain in 7 days.
Genesis 7:4, “For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain
upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every-
thing substance that I have made will I destroy from off
the face of the earth.”
334

only ones that were prepared. Everyone else was destroyed for their
lack of unbelief.
John 12:43 (Amp), “For they loved the approval and the
praise and the glory that come from men, instead of and
more than the glory that comes from God. They valued
their credit with men, more than their credit with God.”
336
2007
changes are going to happen world wide very soon. It will not be
good here; otherwise God would not bother removing His children
to safety first.
The only ones who are going to be unprepared and caught off
guard are the unbelievers, the sinners. If you are a child of God, you
can hear God’s voice, even for the tiniest little details. Listen for
Him and follow His prompting daily. God is telling all his children
to get ready; Jesus is coming to get you soon.
Our job from now until the rapture is to reach out to our fami-
lies and friends and whoever else we have opportunity to warn and
witness to and tell them to prepare. Get your heart and soul’s right
with God. Clear up anything that might hold you back from going
up in the rapture with the rest of us. Love people, care about people,
have compassion for others. Forgive others who have wronged you.
Ask forgiveness from those you have wronged. Don’t let the sun go
down on any ill feelings or unforgiveness!! Don’t get left behind.
If you knew you were going to die today or if the world was
going to end today what would you do? Would you make sure your
loved ones knew that you loved them? Would you swallow your
pride and make amends with that family member or friend you’ve
been mad at? Would you get down on your knees and ask Jesus to
forgive you? If you knew this was your last day on earth and you’d
be standing in front of God in just a few hours, what would you do?
Well then do it? The time has come.

all blend together to reveal the full picture. For example if everyone
is saying pretty much the same thing, then you have someone come
along and say the US or Israel, are going to be hit by a nuclear bomb
before the rapture and half the world is going to be destroyed, they
are wrong. God will not allow that to happen before the rapture. Yes,
nuclear war is going to happen, and much of civilization is going to
be destroyed, but not until after the rapture. God is removing His
children to safety first.
God loves us all so much, and it causes Him great sorrow to see
us destroying ourselves because of bad choices we are making and
because of our unbelief in Him and His Word. He wants to help us
and save us but we have to reach out to Him and choose Him. He
will not force Himself on any of us. If you do not reach out to God
and choose God, He will not save you. The choice is yours.
God does not expect you to stop your everyday lives. You should
carry on like you usually do. I hear of groups of people that have
sold all their belongings and gathered their families together and
set up camp in the desert somewhere waiting for the world to end.
That’s ridiculous. I don’t believe God wants us to do that. You don’t
have to get on top of a mountain and wave a red flag for God to find
you. If you are a Christian, then you are one of God’s children. He
knows where His children are and He’s not going to forget about
you. The only thing you need to do is accept Jesus as your Savior,
reach out to your family and friends and tell them how to get saved,
and carry on your every day lives in a Christian way. Go to work.
Pay you bills. Take care of your household. Spread love and kind-
ness to others.
A lot of people were preparing for Y2K or terrorism attacks by
stocking up on extra food, water and emergency supplies. Well I
live in Florida, and what everyone else was doing, is what most
Floridians have been doing all along, except we call it hurricane
supplies. Whatever you choose to call your emergency supplies, I
think it’s a good idea for everyone to keep emergency supplies at all
times. You never know what might come up, and you will probably
need them before the rapture. Water and electric will probably be
disrupted for a short time before the rapture.

process does not cease to happen until the rapture. People will still
be born daily and people will still die daily. You do not know when
your last day will be. It could be today. You may not make it until the
rapture. So stop playing around and accept Jesus TODAY!!!
The purpose of this book is not to scare anyone or worry anyone.
The purpose is to bring comfort and hope in this trying time we are
living in. It’s to give you strength and let you know to just hold on a
little bit longer. Our help (Jesus) is on His way. THE RAPTURE IS
AN ACT OF GOD THAT YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER!
It’s a wonderful spectacular event for all who are part of God’s
family. Don’t stress over it or be upset. Accept Jesus as Savior and
reach out to your family and friends and help them get ready for
Jesus return. We are about to take a wonderful amazing trip. Enter
into that safe, peaceful place with Jesus Christ.
God told me to send a copy of this book to everyone who request
it for free in an effort to get this message all over the world and
in everyone’s home as quickly as possible. God is telling all His
children the same message. Listen for it. Obey His voice. Don’t be
deceived. This is for real. God bless you.

345
OUR WEAPONS
Cc
E very human being has something in their life that they struggle
with; a war or a battle that we have to fight. It could be sickness,
physical problems, financial, emotional, mental or even social.
God says no matter what the problem looks like with our natural
eyes, it is a result of a spiritual problem. We are to fight our problems
in the spirit world first, and then they will go away in the natural or
physical world.
347
2007
In these last days before Jesus’ return there will be a lot of spiri-
tual warfare needed. We really have not had to perform many exor-
cisms or experience a lot of demonic activity. In Jesus day demonic
activity seemed more evident than it does today. Jesus recognized
and spoke to demons in His day and they spoke back. You need to
348
2007
study the word of God so you will know how to defend yourself. Our
only defense against Satan and demonic power is the word of God.
You better learn it in case you need to use it. And make sure you are
covered in the blood of Jesus (spiritually, not literally) before you
try to fight demonic spirits. If not you will definitely loose.
During the tribulation the people left behind that accepts Jesus
as Savior will need some hope that they will be O.K.
Be patient. Trust God, in His ability and willingness to help you.
Don’t give up. God will not fail you. He promised He wouldn’t if
you trust in Him with all your heart.
349
CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE
FEAR
Cc
351
FEAR
Cc
Living by faith in God, keeps God active in your life. If you have
complete faith and confidence in God, you have no fear. Faith cast
out fear. Faith in God is our spiritual weapon against fear.
The battleground for fear is in your mind. Thoughts of fear enter
your mind because of what you see or hear or feel. You have to
refuse to think about it. You can’t stop Satan from sending negative,
fearful thoughts to you, but you do have the power and choice to not
receive the thought.
353
2007
Fear gives Satan access into your life. Your failure starts when
fear begins. Do not watch things that you know are going to scare
you. Do not listen to things that you know are going to scare you. If
Satan can get you scared and worried about something, he knows he
has weakened you and it is easier for him to defeat you.
Your mind can only think of one thing at a time. So keep
saying, reading, and focusing on God’s word, then negative
thoughts can’t stay.
Say for example you live in a bad neighborhood and you think
someone could try to hurt you physically. Satan starts sending you
thoughts like, “better be careful they’re hiding somewhere watching
you and going to get you when you don’t expect it.” Then you
become paranoid. You think they are in your house, in your car,
behind you somewhere. You begin to think about it and worry and
let your imagination run wild. You can’t sleep. You’re jumpy.
Well instead of letting Satan torment you like that you should
start throwing those negative thoughts away and start replacing
them with the thoughts and truths of God and His word.
354
2007
Why can you believe that you’re O.K.? Because God said He
would protect you and keep you safe if you believe in Him. God
keeps 10,20,30 foot angels all around His children at all times. You
don’t have to see them to believe they are there. They are actively
there with you if you are believing and trusting in God, God said
they are and that’s all you need to know.
John 20:29, “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet
believed.”
Having confidence in what you fear makes what you fear come
to pass.
Don’t let fear grow and take root. Don’t let your confidence in
your fears be greater than your confidence in God’s word and what
God is capable of doing for you.
Don’t speak words of fear. Don’t speak against God’s word and
God’s ability.
Don’t think about what you are afraid of. Think about the good-
ness of God. Think about the victories in your life because God is
in control.
Satan is like that bully that used to pick on you in school. He
liked to try to scare you with his words. When you didn’t back down
355
2007
and you stood up to him, you found out he wasn’t so tough after all.
He was all mouth.
Satan is definitely behind all this terrorism. They are just a bunch
of bullies Satan is using that is out trying to scare people.
God has mighty, strong angels around you and they are enforcing
God’s word and promises as you say them and as you believe
them.
God always has more angels around you than Satan has demons.
Only 1/3 of the angels fled with Satan, and 2/3 stayed with God.
When you are fearful, worried and anxiety stricken, you are
giving Satan power in your life. Satan has no power unless you give
it to him by acting, thinking and talking fear. Satan knows this, so
he will try to do all sorts of things to make you afraid and stay that
way. But you can stop it. Just speak in agreement with God’s word
instead of the lies that Satan sends. Say out loud, “No, I will not be
afraid. Satan you are a liar. God loves me and God is with me. God
will not let anything or anyone hurt me.”
Once you choose to believe in God instead of fear, you strip
Satan of his power over you. Devils and demons tremble and flee at
the name of Jesus.
356
2007
Sometimes you just have to say, “God, I’m scared to do this, but I
know this is what You’ve told me to do, so I’m doing it.” Know He’s
with you. Know He’s helping you. And just go do it afraid.
Don’t let fear stop you from doing what you know is right. Don’t
let fear stop you from carrying out instructions from God.
When we refuse fear and walk in faith in God, we walk in power.
In SUPERNATURAL POWER!! Refuse bad thoughts, only think
good thoughts.
357
2007
358
2007
If you truly believe that God is with you then you will have NO
FEAR.
If you truly believe that God is for you then who can possibly
come against you and defeat you.
Fear brings in doubt and unbelief. When you fear, you automati-
cally doubt God and don’t believe in His ability and willingness to
help you.
You are His child and He loves you. But He won’t force Himself
on you or your situation. You have to choose Him and His ways.
Choose to trust Him instead of the lies of Satan. Stand on God’s
promises and on His word.
Jesus said, “I will NEVER leave you or forsake you.” Hebrews
13:5.
359
2007
Psalm 91:4-7, “He shall cover thee with His feathers, and
under His wing shall thou trust; His trust shall be thou
shield and buckler.
Thou shall not be afraid of the terror by night; nor
for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor
for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side and ten thousand at
thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.”

G od’s Word will bring you the results you need in your life.
Once God speaks something, it’s done forever. Whether He
spoke it in the Garden of Eden or at the crucifixion. Whether He
spoke it in the last days, after the rapture, during the tribulation, or
whenever; if He said it, you can count on it. His Words are not empty.
God’s words have power. His words never ever fail or become void.
If He promised us something, then He’ll do it now and throughout
eternity. Say it. Believe it. No matter what things look like, or what
anyone else may tell you. Just believe God.
You should know that if you pray according to God’s will He
will give it to you. The key is knowing His will. God wants all His
children blessed, happy, prosperous, healthy.

wealth will make you vain, prideful, selfish, stingy and self-righ-

what you want the best way you can.
Your purpose and the purposes of all of us here on earth, are not
self-involvement. Our purpose is to be a blessing to others, a help to
others and a witness for God Almighty.
I have prayed for a lot of people to be healed. Many have received
their healing, some have not. I don’t know why all did not receive. I
know God was not to blame. But no matter what, you keep praying
and believing. The rest is in God’s hands.

situation and you see your victory.

The Bible says we as believers can raise the dead in the Name of
Jesus. Jesus said we can lay our hands on the dead, pray for them,
and God will bring them back to us, again, if it be His will for them
to come back. I very much believe this is true. However, my Dad
died in his sleep in April 2000. When I was told, I went to him and
anointed him with oil and begged God to fill him with life again. My
Dad did not come back. I know my Dad is alive in Heaven, but his
body here remained dead.
Almost one year later, my brother died of liver and kidney failure.
Again I prayed and said all those healing verses over and over every
day and begged God to restore his body and his life, but God didn’t.
I know my brother is also alive in Heaven. Those were the only
times I have prayed for God to raise the dead. I don’t know why my
Dad and my brother were not raised from the dead, and I may not
know until I get to Heaven and ask God myself. I am glad I at least
tried. If the opportunity arises for me to pray for the dead again, I
probably will. I have heard of other Christian believers saying that
they had prayed; some came back and some didn’t. Never give up
hope. Keep trying.
King David lost a son. He prayed and fasted and believed God,
but his son still died. God loved David and heard his prayers.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Cc
379
2007
I just quoted scripture out of the bible proving that the rapture is
a biblical event. If it is in the bible then it will happen. If people do
not want to believe the prophets warnings, then don’t. That does not
mean it is not going to happen and it does not mean you are going
to miss it when it does happen. It just means it will be an exciting
surprise for you. If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord
and Savior then you are a child of God. God does not divide us up
into different religions, denomination, sex, color, creed, or social
group. We are all His and He loves each one of us the same without
partiality. God is gracious, loving and merciful. He is a fair God
not only to the saved but to the lost as well. You have to know the
personality of God and the way He does things and has always done
things. He never changes. Sending this warning to people, ALL
people, is just God’s way and His nature. If people really understood
the depth of God’s love toward everyone(sinners and believers) they
would be able to receive this prophecy. When Jesus appears in the
sky to call all God’s children up at the rapture then we are ALL
going if we belong to Him. Whether your church teaches it or not
or whether you believe in it or not will not influence or change the
truth that “all God’s children will be raptured at the same time” all
over the world!!!
What about the children? Are all childen going to Heaven and
being raptured?
380
2007
I wrote this book because God told me to. God told me to reach
out to the UNCHURCHED. He told me to reach those who do not
hear the voice of God speaking. He told me to not focus all my
attention on the church and Christians. If Christians want to believe
381
2007
me fine. If they don’t, that is between them and God. The church
should already be saved and prepared for the return of Jesus. I have
a passion for the lost. God gave me a prophetic dream about my life
and about the rapture of the church. He showed me several major
changes and events that were going to happen in my life. Most all
of them have happened so far over a period of time. God told me to
write down my dream and share it with this whole nation and then
the rapture is going to happen. I am in the process of doing that
right now. Habbakuk 2:2&3 says, “Write the vision, make it plain
upon tables that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for
an appointed time but at the end it shall speak, and not lie; though it
tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.”
Why should anyone believe that you know the date of the rapture
when Mathew 24:36 says, “But of that day and hour knoweth no
man, no, not the angels of Heaven, but My Father only.”
382
2007
Tell me, Why should anyone believe that dream was actually
from God? Can you prove you are not a false prophet ?
We all must receive everything about God and the bible by faith.
We must receive His prophets and messengers by faith as well. All I
can do is give the message. GOD ONLY USES HIS CHILDREN TO
BE A PROPHETIC VOICE FOR HIM. People can look at my life. I
am a Christian who loves God with all my heart. I am not preaching
anything contrary to the bible. I am not trying to form some kind of
cult or special group. I am not trying to magnify myself at all. I’m
not trying to profit myself or make money off of the message. When
God gives prophecy, it does not conflict with other prophecy He has
given. All God given prophecy, past and present, blends together
to expose one picture. God actually told me that every prophecy
that He is revealing to people is like a piece of a puzzle. When all
the pieces are put together we will see the complete picture. This
message or prophecy that God has given me is a very important part
of that puzzle. All prophecy leads back to Jesus Christ or to Jesus
383
2007
Christ. People can see the result of this message I am sending. The
result is preparation for Jesus Christ. Preparing not only their souls
but their physical daily lives as well. I will not be able to actually
prove the validity of this message until Summer of 2007 when the
rapture happens. Deuteronomy 8:22 says, “...when a prophet speaks
in the name of the Lord, if the thing does not happen or come to
pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken.” Proof that
someone is not a false prophet is that the thing they prophecy about
actually does happen. If some people wait until 2007 to believe me it
will be too late. Why waste another minute of your life in the control
of Satan any way. Whether the rapture happens in 2007, in 2070 or
whether it happens tomorrow. You should get your lives in order
right now today and stop playing games with God. You need your
lives to be taken out of the hands of Satan and placed in the hands of
God for your daily living, not just to secure a heavenly seat when it
is your time to leave this earth.
A lot of people think you are trying to use scare tactics to bring
people to Jesus Christ. Some have said you have no right going
around scaring people and predicting the end of the world.
Well first of all, like I said earlier, the rapture is not the end of the
world, the rapture kicks off the beginning of a terrible 7 year tribula-
tion that is coming to this world not to a world that has ended. It is a
time when the wrath of God will be poured out on those who remain
here on earth. Secondly, there are certain things in life we all must
be aware of and adjust our lives to, especially in this day and hour
that we did not have to think about or make adjustments to 100 years
ago. We did not have to tell our children not to play in traffic, we
did not have to stress to our children the importance of not talking
to strangers, we did not have to have safe rooms and fallout shel-
ters. We don’t shield ourselves from death and funerals because we
are scared to face the fact that one day we are going to die. We did
not have to prepare meticulously for the rapture of the church 100
years ago either. Although giving your life over to Jesus is the main
preparation, there are other things we should do and prepare for that
would make our lives more comfortable as we get closer to the final
384
2007
days. You need Jesus on the inside of you so you are capable of
hearing the voice of God to lead and guide you in your daily lives.
These warnings from God are not to scare us but to prepare us for
a very real event that is about to happen. The rapture is not a scary
thing unless you are not saved, that’s why people are being warned
specifically so they can prepare their hearts and lives and give them-
selves to Jesus to hear God’s voice and daily promptings. If people
are scared they should talk to God about that and search their own
souls and find out why. True children of God welcome the rapture
and are excited about the reunion.
You know people have been saying for 100’s of years that Jesus
is coming soon. There have been a multitude of people who have
predicted the date of the end, and they have been wrong. Why
should anyone believe you now?
I know people have been saying this since Jesus’ day. Jesus
Himself warned people in Mark 1:14&15 to prepare because the
Kingdom of God was at hand. Do you know how quickly evil would
have spread if people knew back then that the rapture was really
not going to happen until 2007AD? God wanted us to always be
prepared for the rapture to happen any day. I believe it kept us on
our toes throughout the generations. The prophecy of the rapture has
been in the bible ever since the bible was written. God has held back
certain revelation and understanding of these prophecies until now.
The rapture did not happen and can not happen until several condi-
tions and situations line up first. Everything has lined up with what
God said was going to happen before the rapture and now the time
and circumstances is finally right for the event.
What do you have to say to people who say they know Jesus is
coming soon, but God has not told them 2007?
I say they are mistaken and that is really a foolish, prideful state-
ment. As said earlier, God speaks to people in different ways. He
speaks to us through other people. I am one of those people God
is using. God gave me this message and told me 2007. So God IS
385
2007
Why would God choose you to tell this message? Do you think
you are more special than everyone else?
Anyone who has read the bible knows that God always chooses
someone that the rest of the world is not expecting. I absolutely do
not think I am more special than anyone else. On the other hand I do
not think I am lower or less than anyone else either. Why God chose
me instead of someone of well known respect like Billy Graham, I
have no idea. I know that God qualifies everyone He calls. The bible
says God chooses the humble and the foolish things of the world to
confound the wise. Most everyone in the bible that God used and
called including Moses, David, Paul, Jesus and the 12 apostles did
not fit the mold of what the world or religious people were expecting.
Other well known preachers and evangelist of today would not
have probably been chosen by society either. But God called them,
changed them, qualified them and uses them to His glory to accom-
plish His will. I believe God has done the same for me. I am just
as qualified to be used of God as anyone else, because it is not me
that is doing the work it is God in me that is giving this message.
386
2007
What about people who say they are not ready to give their
lives to Jesus right now? They feel if the rapture is not going to
happen until 2007 then they’ll just wait till then to repent?
No one knows when their last day will be on earth. Some people
are going to die today. Right now might be your last opportunity to
accept Jesus as Savior. Just because the rapture is happening in 2007
does not mean that the life and death process ceases until then. You
should not wait until 2007 to receive Jesus in your life. The bible
says today is your day for salvation. If you truly repent of your sins,
you are anxious to start over and rid yourself of your sins and get
closer to God. God knows your heart. He knows if you are really
sorry for your sins. People who say they will wait until the very last
minute to repent would make me doubt their sincerity all together.
And if it is that obvious to me, I’m sure it is more obvious to God.
387
2007
It is very easy. You first must repent in your heart. Be sorry for
your sinful life and be willing to make changes and adjustments to
line your life up with the will of God and live according to the bible.
Then confess your sins and ask Jesus to come into your heart and
cleanse you and start you over again.
Romans 10:9&10 says, “That if thou shalt confess with thy
mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath
raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
