‘THOSE IN BONDS’

The Word of God tells us that Christians will be hated in all nations during the last days. This prophecy has been fulfilled, even in the United States!

Jesus said,

“Great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, famines and pestilences, and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven; but before all these, they shall lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for My name’s sake” Luke 21:11-12.

When Kim Davis, the Rowan County Clerk, Kentucky, refused to sign marriage licenses for homosexuals, she was arrested and tossed in jail. Who would have thought this could happen in America?

Homosexuals demand services from Christian business owners, such as the owners of bakeries, wedding facilities and bed and breakfast inns, who must refuse to serve them in the capacity they require, or defy God’s commandments and their Christian faith, because the Word of God tells us homosexuality is an abomination in the sight of God,

“You shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind, it is an abomination” Leviticus 18:22.

When these business owners refused to provide services to accommodate homosexual activities, these homosexuals sued the Christian business owners for monetary gain.

Did you ever think a “Christian nation” would fall so low into the gutter, where Christians would not be allowed to keep the tenets of their faith without being sued for large sums of money, or even ending up in jail?

This is your last days “Land of the Free,” folks! It is only going to get worse, until the Lord returns to establish His righteous kingdom on this earth.

In the meantime, Christians all over the world are being persecuted, jailed and killed, and it is a sign of the last days, according to Bible prophecy.

Jesus also said,

“Then (in the last days) shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you, and you shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake” Matthew 24:9.

Let’s not forget those who are in bonds:

“Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them, and those who suffer adversity, as being yourselves also suffering” Hebrews 13:3.

Asia Bibi is a Pakistani mother of five, who has been in prison for more than eight years for her Christian faith. She has a death sentence hanging over her head, which is in the process of appeal, but most of Pakistan (96 percent Muslim) wants her to hang. Two politicians in Pakistan, who spoke against Bibi’s conviction, were assassinated. (Update: Asia Bibi has been set free! God answered her prayers and the many prayers of the saints throughout the world! Praise God Almighty! Thank you, President Trump!)

Three American Christians are imprisoned in North Korea, Kim Dong Chul (serving 10 years), Kim Sang-duk (arrested 4/22/17) and Kim Hak-song (arrested ~May 2017); all in prison for their Christian faith. (Update: Kim Dong Chul, Kim Sang-duk and Kim Hak-song have all been set free and brought back to the US! God answered their prayers and the many prayers of the saints throughout the world. President Trump called for their release and the North Korean tyrant let them go! This was nothing less than a miracle! Praise God Almighty! Thank you, President Trump!)

Kim Hak-song worked for the Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST), a university founded by evangelical Christians in 2010. The university is funded by Christian churches in the United States and South Korea. Kim is a Christian missionary and US citizen. North Korean officials stated Kim was arrested for hostile acts against the country. Christianity is considered treasonous in North Korea.

Kim Sang-duk (also known as Tony Kim), the chancellor of PUST, was arrested while trying to leave with his wife on a flight to China. Kim is a Christian and US citizen. North Korea has not released any details since his arrest on April 22, 2017.

Kim Dong Chul is an American businessman who was operating a business in the commerce area of North Korea, although he and his wife reside in China. Kim, who is a Christian, was detained in October 2015, and was sentenced to 10 years hard labor following a brief trial. Kim is a Christian. He was charged with espionage and subversion.

I am going to share the stories of two others who are being persecuted, who may, or may not be Christians, but they cannot be forgotten.

Bob (Robert) Levinson is an American businessman who was abducted in Iran on the Island of Kish in March 2007. Levinson’s family received a video of him in 2010. He pleaded for help from American politicians on the video, saying, “Please help me get home.”

Treasonous, stealthy Muslim, Barack Obama, did absolutely nothing to help Levinson, even while making a monumental deal with Iran to lift sanctions, which released billions of dollars to Iran, and which also allowed their production of nuclear power!

 

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Julian Assange

Julian Assange has taken asylum in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for the last five and a half years for exposing the crimes of politicians, specifically treasonous acts, and other crimes, including pedophilia.

Julian Assange is a HERO and should be thanked and rewarded greatly for exposing the vile crimes of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and many others, all who should be criminally prosecuted, but their crimes are being ignored and they walk free!

In the meantime, Julian Assange is being hunted down like a dog!

This, friends, is our last days “Land of the Free!”

Please include these on your daily prayer lists and pray with me for their safe return home to their families. Let’s also pray for the salvation of Bob Levinson and Julian Assange, in the event they aren’t saved yet.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away.

The Roman clergy complained to the archbishop of Turn that the Waldenses of the valleys of Piedmont here heretics for these reasons: 1) They did not believe in the doctrines of the Church of Rome. 2) They made no offerings or prayers for the dead. 3) They did not attend Catholic Mass. 4) They did not confess and receive absolution. 5) They did not believe in purgatory, or pay money to get the souls of their friends out of it. Upon these charges, the archbishop ordered a persecution to take place and many fell martyrs to the superstitious rage of the priests and monks. At Turin, one of the Protestants had his bowels torn out and put in a basin before his face. At Revel, Catelin Girard being at the stake, desired the executioner to give him a stone. Girard, looking earnestly at the stone said, “When it is in the power of man to eat and digest this solid stone, the religion for which I am about to suffer shall have an end, and not before,” and he submitted cheerfully to the flames.

Excerpts taken from Fox’s Book of Martyrs – Zondervan Publishing House (1926)

The Catholic Church has never issued an apology for the crimes committed during the Inquisition and the brutal murders of Protestant Christians who denounced papal authority, denied Purgatory, the selling of indulgences in sin, the worship of idols, prayers to the saints and the Virgin Mary. Neither has any reparation been made to the heirs of the saints who suffered such persecutions from the Catholic Church. Protestants were brutally murdered by Catholics by way of burning them alive at the stake, flaying alive, hangings, cutting them to pieces, burying them alive, drowning, torturing them on the rack, whereby bones were broken and bodies ripped apart, beheading them, etc… The property and assets were seized of those heinously murdered by the Catholic Church from about the Twelfth Century through around the 1820s. The Vatican sits atop the blood of the saints. Revelation 18 describes her brutal end for heresies and having committed such abominable crimes.

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins and that you receive not of her plagues” Revelation 18:4.

God is calling His sincere believers to come out of the Catholic abomination, before it’s too late!

British Christian School Ordered To Teach Other Faith, Or Risk Closure

BRITISH CHRISTIAN SCHOOL ORDERED TO TEACH OTHER FAITH, OR RISK CLOSURE

Britain’s education inspector informed the Christian Institute, a private Christian school, that they are out of step with “British values” prescribed by the government, and that they must invite someone from another faith, such as a Muslim imam, to lead assemblies, or risk being closed.

The Christian Institute, a superior school, has already been downgraded in retaliation by the British government. 

Britain already has over 80 Shariah courts. Now Britain is forcing Islam into private Christian schools. How insidious a government. You won’t see ministers teaching Christianity in Muslim schools. Ministers would fear decapitation. So much for British values! If Britain truly desires to promote tolerance in the nation, they need to start with their terrorist Muslim citizens first!

Screen shot: YouTube.com

Simon Calvert, Deputy Director of the Christian Institute, said, “The new requirements are infringing the rights of children, parents, teachers and schools to hold and practice their religious beliefs.”

The Christian Institute also reported that the rules call for teachers to “actively promote” the rights defined in the Equality Act 2010, including sexual orientation and transsexual rights.

The schools will also be “required to challenge parents” on their values, if they contradict what the government has determined is “equality,” a legal analysis concluded.

Do you see where this is going?

Here in the US, Kim Davis, Clerk of Rowan County, Kentucky, returned to work on Monday, after having been jailed for not issuing marriage licenses to gay couples, because it is against her faith. She vowed she would not issue marriage licenses to gay couples. She said that she will not stand in the way of her clerks issuing licenses to gays, as they have been doing during her absence, but she will not allow her name to be included on the licenses, which may invalidate the licenses issued. It remains to be seen if the court will, again, issue another charge of contempt against Davis and have her remanded into custody a second time.

The US courts don’t care that they are trying to force Ms. Davis to become unemployed, or defy her own faith and sin against God! This is absurd!

About 2 percent of the US population is homosexual. We should all know that we are living in the very last days when the government demands that employees defy God Almighty, and go against His Holy Word in order to appease the wicked.

The Word of God says,

“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind, it is abomination” Leviticus 18:22.

In order for Kim Davis to issue marriage licenses to those who commit these sins, she would be in direct defiance against God’s Holy Word. When lawmakers go so far as to attempt to force a Godly woman to deny her faith and defy God because of the abominable, people need to know we are at the brink of eternity!

Jesus said,

“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot…even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man (Jesus) is revealed” Luke 17:28, 30.

What was happening in the days of Lot? Genesis 19 tells us that the sins of Sodom were so great, that God sent two angels into the city of Sodom (named after its prominent sin) to retrieve Lot and his family before He destroyed the city with fire and brimstone. The city was overtaken with homosexuality and even their conversations vexed Lot, who was righteous (2 Peter 2:7).

The same thing is happening right now in our generation. This sin is turning the United States upside down. The same thing that happened when Lot was delivered will also happen when the Lord returns, as Jesus forewarned in Luke 17:29.

“The same day that Lot went out of Sodom (delivered by God), it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all” Luke 17:29.

When Jesus returns for the saints, the great tribulation (the wrath of God) will fall upon this wicked generation.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining will surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

Judge Orders Kentucky Clerk, Kim Davis, To Jail for Not Denying Her Faith

US SUPREME COURT ORDERS CLERK TO VIOLATE HER RELIGIOUS CONVICTIONS

A Kentucky county clerk refused to issue gay marriage licenses on account of her religious convictions, and the case went to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Kim Davis, an elected official in Kentucky, is a devout Christian and she said issuing a gay marriage license would violate her conscience (faith).

This is no different than ordering a Christian to blaspheme the name of God, or any other vile sin that is forbidden in the Word of God.

The court could care less that Kim Davis is a believer in God and that she adheres to His holy commandments.

The Word of God tells us,

“You shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is an abomination” Leviticus 18:22.

Jesus said,

“Fear not those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul, but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” Matthew 10:28.

Ms. Davis is a devout Christian; she knows the Word of God and she also fears God. She has no desire to violate God’s commandments, or commit an abominable sin by issuing marriage licenses to homosexuals.

The Supreme Court of the United States has breached a definitive line drawn by Almighty God; they obviously have no fear of God and are heretics, except for possibly the dissenting judges, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. They may still have some semblance of the fear of God, although they don’t openly proclaim it.

Whoever will, must hold on to their fear of God, because the Word of God also tells us,

“The wicked shall be turned into hell and all nations that forget God” Psalm 9:17.

Finally, the Prophet Daniel wrote about the work of antichrist in the last days,

“And he shall speak great words against the Most High, and SHALL WEAR OUT THE SAINTS OF THE MOST HIGH, AND THINK TO CHANGE TIMES AND LAWS, and they shall be given into his hand until a time (a year) and times (two years) and the dividing of time (half a year)” Daniel 7:25 (he actually spoke concerning the last three and a-half years of the Great Tribulation period, but we can already see the persecution rising).

Christians are being sued by homosexuals who are refused services which violate their Christian faith, such as renting rooms to homosexuals, baking wedding cakes for homosexuals, or hosting homosexual “weddings.”

Is this Christian persecution not the “wearing out of the saints,” which Daniel prophesied of during the last days?

UPDATE Thursday:

JUDGE ORDERS KENTUCKY CLERK, KIM DAVIS, TO JAIL FOR NOT DENYING HER FAITH

Excerpts taken from FoxNews.com

Kim Davis, Rowan County Clerk, Kentucky, was ordered to jail by a federal judge for contempt on Thursday, after refusing still to issue marriage licenses to homosexuals, because it is against her faith to do so.

US District Judge David Bunning said he would order Davis to jail, because he did not believe she would comply with his order even if fined. She was remanded to the custody of federal marshals on Thursday.

Fox News reported that hundreds of people outside the courthouse chanted and screamed, “Love won! Love won!”

I am afraid these defiant rebels against God’s Holy Word haven’t read the Holy Book, or the end of the matter. They haven’t read who is soon to win against evil, or that they, for defying God Himself and His Holy Word, have all sentenced themselves to the eternal flames of hell fire, unless they repent.

Kim Davis gave a very emotional testimony in court about how she became a Christian and is unable to believe anything else.

In the meantime, a plane flew over the courthouse flying a banner that said, “Stand Firm Kim.”

Davis, who is an Apostolic Christian, said she never imagined this day would come. She said, “I have no animosity toward anyone and harbor no ill will. To me this has never been a gay or lesbian issue. It is about marriage and God’s Word.”

Judge Bunning was among a three-judge panel on a federal appeals court that overturned Michigan’s ban on partial birth abortion (the torture and killing of babies midway between the state of being unborn and birthed). He also ordered the Boyd County School District to allow the Gay-Straight Alliance (those who promote homosexuality in public schools) to meet on campus.

Jesus said,

“Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you, and you shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake” Matthew 24:9.

Jail today, killing the saints comes next (actually this is going on right now in the Middle East, China, Vietnam, North Korea and other nations).
