"Witchcraft: Repackaged Religion"

The U.S. witch population is rising astronomically--to the tune of 1.5 million, according to Quartzy, Basic Witches. And its popularity isn't just growing--it levitating.

Apparently, anyone can be a witch. They pride themselves on being inclusive, although witchcraft tends to appeal to a certain type of demographic--you guessed it--young, liberal women.

According to Quartzy: 

"The typical witch nowadays (and it's mostly she, though more men are starting to join in) examines her dreams for clues about her unconscious and fills her life with rituals. She probably attends new-moon gatherings or has an altar in her home. She might cast spells using crystals or herbs for manifestations of wealth and love. And she likely believes in polygamy, too."

Author Julie Roys, formerly of Moody Radio, believes, "It makes sense that witchcraft and the occult would rise as society becomes increasingly postmodern. The rejection of Christianity has left a void that people, as inherently spiritual beings, will seek to fill. Plus, Wicca has effectively repackaged witchcraft for millennial consumption. No longer is witchcraft and paganism satanic and demonic," she said.

GotQuestions.org begs to differ.

"The Bible has a lot to say about witchcraft. Witchcraft and its many cousins, such as fortune-telling and necromancy, are Satan's counterfeits to holy spirituality. The Bible expressly condemns all forms of witchcraft.

"Since the Garden of Eden, Satan's major focus has been to divert the human heart away from worship of the One true God. He entices humans with the suggestion of power, self-realization, and spiritual enlightenment. To become involved in witchcraft in any way is to enter Satan's realm. Modern entanglements with witchcraft include:

• horoscopes
• Ouija boards
• Eastern meditation rituals
• casting spells 
• using crystals or herbs
• worshiping creation rather than the Creator

 "Witchcraft and its many counterparts promise spirituality but lead only to emptiness  and death. Only Jesus has the words of life (see JOHN 6:68)."

A wise man once said: "Why seek any power apart from the source of all real power? Why seek spirits who are not the Holy Spirit?" -- GotQuestions.org

"Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that came from demons" - 1 TIMOTHY 4:1.

"The god of this age (Satan) has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God" - 2 CORINTHIANS 4:4.

Israel Under Attack...Again

Students of Bible prophecy agree that the Jews back in the Land is the most significant fulfilled prophecy of our time. And though Israel has been attacked repeatedly throughout their 75-year history, the Bible makes it clear they will never again be uprooted from the Land. (Amos 9:15). Though the final World War will be fought over Jerusalem.

Consider:

In 1967, Egypt started the 6-Day War and Israel shocked the world with its military superiority. Though grossly outnumbered, the Jews managed to conquer the Sinai, the city of Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Golan Heights.

Since that time, in a quest for peace, Israel has forged formal treaties with Egypt, Jordan, and was only days away from peace with Saudi Arabia, which probably would have reshaped the entire Middle East, when Hamas attacked Israel and put an end to peace talks. 

And yet the world condems Israel as the aggressor and conveniently forgets Israel's 2005 withdrawal from Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Lebanon. There is no Israeli occupation.

In 2006, the Palestinian people voted Hamas into power. Hamas, a known terrorist group, won the Palestinian legislative elections and assumed administrative control of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. Control freely given to them by the Palestinian people. 

For decades Hamas has pursued a consistently violent strategy aimed at bringing death and destruction to Israel. But its stunning attack on October 7 marks its deadliest incursion yet.

 

This puts Israel in a very precarious position. If they defend themselves, the world condems them, but if they don't, they will be destroyed.

The Hamas massacre of Israelis was a function of pure hate. But why? What is the real reason for yet another war? The Bible makes it clear that the underlying issue is spiritual, not political. Israel is God's chosen witness to the world. The Messiah was born in Israel and will return to Israel. Satan hates the Jews and will use whatever satanic powers he can to destroy them.

And unfortunatly, the world will cooperate with Satan. The Bible predicts the entire world will eventually turn against Israel, driven by hatred of God.

Even now the lines are being drawn: we are either for God or against Him. Our advise? Choose God.

God to Israel: 

"I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you" (GENESIS 12:3).

"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee" (PSALM 122:6).

A wiseman once said: "I have no illusions. The international support we recieved during the first days following the massacre will soon be exchanged with anger at Israel for its 'disproportionate response'. Jewish blood is cheap in the eyes of many nations."-- Amir Tsarfati, Behold Israel

"When is The War of Ezekiel 38?"

With the horrific news coming out of Israel, many are jumping to the conclusion that the infamous war of Gog & Magog must be right around the corner.

Why? Because the war detailed in Ezekiel 38 will be a multi-pronged, surprise attack that will catch Israel completly off guard. 

Impossible? Apparently not. Saturday's attack had many of the same elements the Ezekiel war will have, so the comparison is understandable, though, Ezekiel's war will be many magnitudes worse.

There are a variety of opinions on just when Ezekiel's conflict will happen. Some place it before the 7-year tribulation; others believe it will occur at the midpoint after the first 3-1/2 years. Still others maintain it's a part of the Armageddon scenario.

And some believe there will be a war with Israel's immediate neighbors first as Psalm 83 seems to suggest.

While the precise timing of Ezekiel's prophecy is unknown, he did leave us a number of clues. For instance:

• It will happen in the 'latter years', after the final restoration of the Jews to the Land (fulfilled in 1948), but before their spiritual rebirth (predicted in Ez.37).
• The attack will come from a coalition of nations including an instigator from 'the far North' of Israel. (Though Russia is not mentioned by name, it lies directly north of Israel)
• Persia (present day Iran), Ethiopia and Libya are all specifically included in the list of coalition troops.

The prophecy is quite long, covering two complete chapters and almost certainly predicts this war will be nuclear. Ez. 39:11-16 details the clean-up and burial procedures that follow the battle and they sound as if they come straight from a nuclear protocol manual.

So how close are these events? We don't know, but reports out of Israel indicate that both Iranian and Russian technology was used in Saturday's attack. 

It's possible that the two wars are completley unrelated... but we doubt it. The war of Gog and Magog may not be right around the corner...but it definitely could be.

A wiseman once said:"The Bible predicted, thousands of years ago, that the end time events would revolve around Jerusalem. Not San Francisco. Not Los Angeles. Not Moscow. Not Paris. But Jerusalem, this tiny little city, in this tiny sliver of land, will play a key role in the events of the last days. It's amazing when you think about it, because in Zachariah 12:3-4 God says, "I will make Jerusalem like an intoxicating drink that makes the nearby nations stagger when they send their armies to besiege Jerusalem and Judah. On that day I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock. All the nations will gather against it to try to move it, but they will only hurt themselves" (NLT)."--Greg Laurie, Harvest Christian Fellowship

"Satan's Big Fat Grand Deception"

From the FBI shananigans to the CDC admitting they had it all wrong , it seems our trust has been stretched to the max.

But wait-there's more...even some of our so called "spiritual leaders" may be less than truthful. For instance:

What do you get when you blend Christianity with, mysticism and a whole lot of "woke"  philosophy? A recipe for disaster!

The Bible tells us that the endtimes will be characterized by false teaching and deception. Even what passes for the church will grow lukewarm and lethargic, (see Revelation 3:16), with a watered-down, seeker-friendly version of the Gospel that has no place for Jesus (as presented in the Scriptures).

We are no longer a predominantly Christian society. In fact, anti-Christian sentiment so permeates our public schools, one would think the mere mention of Christ (or God forbid), the Ten Commandments, might actually corrupt young minds. The end result is a people ignorant of biblical truth and polluted by sin. The pursuit of a secular life without God leaves a spiritual vacuum that will, of necessity, be filled with deception. Take God out, and an empty, lost society will fill the void with something. Drugs, alcohol, materialism or some false religion are all popular options.

The Bible predicts that a time of spiritual defection from God's truth will precede the end and pave the way for the arrival of the Antichrist. 

Most evangelicals believe this defection is the product of a false Christianity-people who claim to be Christian, but who don't follow Christ. This false Church will have only the appearance of godliness, but deny the power of God to save. They will be devoid of the Spirit and of truth. They will be counterfeits.

The false religion of the last days will be a combination of: corrupted Christianity, pantheism, Eastern religion, mysticism, and liberal progressive ideology all tossed together into one big fat grand DECEPTION.

Christian beware.

"Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from what we believe; they will follow lying spirits and teachings that come from demons, these teachers are hypocrites and liars. They pretend to be religious, but their consciences are dead"     (1 TIMOTHY 4:1).

A wise man once said: "Test everything against the truth of God's Word. The more familiar you are with the 'real thing' (Scripture) the easier it becomes to spot a lie."  - Jack Hibbs, Senior Pastor Calvary Chapel Chino Hills

"Have The "Birth Pains" Described In The Bible Begun?

Want to live a longer, more fulfilling life?

Don't worry, be happy.

That's right gang--being an optimist could lead to a longer, healthier life according to new research. 

"Happiness is good for the body as well as the mind," asserts study author Hayami Koga, Ph.D., a candidate at the Harvard T.H. Chah School of Public Health. In fact, Koga believes "staying positive is as good for you as exercise and can add many years to your life."

But these are turbulent times. Every day the world grows darker and more dangerous. For those of us who study Bible prophecy, it has become clear that the "birth pains" as described in the Bible have begun. And as every mother knows, once the pains begin they only get worse until it's over.

How can we be happy and optimistic in times like these?

Well, according to the World Health Organization, most people can't. Depression and anxiety disorders are going through the roof. Globally, more than 300 million  (and climbing) people of all ages suffer from depression and many millions more have anxiety disorder.

Unfortunately, global trends are anything but optimistic...and yet God expects us to be happy. Is it possible given today's circumstances?

Andre Van Belkum of Life, Hope & Truth Ministries thinks so:

"The Creator of our bodies and minds has given us a handbook as an assured, dependable and unfailing source of knowledge. It outlines basic principles and instructions for daily living.

"If applied, these guidelines will lead us into a life guaranteed to produce lasting happiness and contentment. Rejection of these principles will undoubtably produce heartache and unending sorrow. These biblical guidelines are not magical formulas, but practical rules of daily conduct that govern the way to happiness.

"The Bible contains the reason you were created. It contains God's plan for you and what He expects from you. It explains where the world is heading and why-and how God is going to rescue it. It contains the blueprint for living a successful, meaningful life in the present, and inheriting eternity in the future."

And yet, the vast majority of people refuse to read it.

A wise man once said: "The words of God are as timeless and powerful today as the the day they were first recorded." - Life, Hope & Truth Ministries 

"Happy are they who are without sin in their ways, walking in the law of the Lord. Happy are they who keep His unchanging word, searching after Him with all their heart" (PSALM 119:1-2).

"Rosh Hashanah & The Rapture of the Church"

 

Rosh Hashanah falls on September 16-17 this year and prophecy buffs all over the planet are watching and waiting.

Why? Because of the seven holidays that make up the ancient festival cycle of Israel, four have already come to pass and been fulfilled. The next one--Rosh Hashanah (aka The Feast of Trumpets)--is expected to be fulfilled in the Rapture of the Church.

Like an outline of history, each feast day is a pattern that shadows a major prophetic event.

The first four, (Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Pentacost), were fulfilled when Jesus came the first time. The next three will be fulfilled during the last seven years of history.

These appointed times (literally 'dress rehearsals') provide a panarama of God's prophetic plan. They are an overview of history that has profound implications for every one of us!

Consider:

• On Passover, Jesus became the sacrificial Lamb of God that takes away the sin of all those who believe and come under His blood for salvation.
• During the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the sinless Christ died to give us the "Bread of Life" eternally, as a gift to all who believe.
• On the Feast of First Fruits, Jesus arose from the dead and 50 days later on Pentacost He sent His Spirit as a seal or guarantee of our salvation.

Interestingly, the Greek word for 'guarantee' can also mean 'engagement ring'. So the Church became betrothed to Christ when the Holy Spirit came on Pentacost.

Next up? Rosh Hashanah, known as the Wedding of Messiah. This feast is a picture of a Jewish wedding when the groom surprises his bride and comes for her "like a thief in the night".

Because Rosh Hashanah is the only feast that occurs on the New Moon following exactly 29.5 days after the last one, it means it could come either 29 or 30 days later. So when Jesus said, "No man knows the day or hour of His return", it could have been a reference to the Feast of Rosh Hashanah.

Will it be this year? We don't know, but if it is, the world will go from normal to experiencing the wrath of God in a split second. You don't want to be here for that. If you are not taken up in the Rapture, there is only one reason: you are not saved. You are headed for an eternity separated from all that is good.

The good news? You can still change your trajectory if you are willing.

If nothing happens on Rosh Hashanah (this year), it's because God is being patient, not wanting anyone to perish, so He's giving more time for people to repent (2 Peter 3:9).

But that day will come (eventually) as unexpectedly as a thief. And with the world circling the drain as it is right now, all of us should be watching and waiting. And let's not forget, He may just come on a random day and surprise us all.

A wise man once said: "God's Word tells us that there will be one generation of believers who will never know death. These believers will be removed from the earth before the Great Tribulation...that's the 'blessed hope' for true believers."  -- Hal Lindsey, author

"But the day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then, the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and everything in them will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be exposed to judgment" (2 PETER 3:10).

"Are We At War With Deep State Globalists?"

Catherine Austin Fitts, former Assistant Secretary of Housing and publisher of The Solari Report, believes we are at war with the Deep State globalists that want nothing short of total control over all mankind.

We believe she may be right. But who's controlling the Deep State globalists?

The Bible says, "...our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms" (EPHESIANS 6:11-12).

According to conservative political site,  Thuletide:

"Globalism is a deeply spiritual project. People often claim that the globalist project is motivated by purely material goals-the expansion of wealth, territory, property, and so on. While these motivations certainly play their part, the elites behind the globalist project are not one-dimensional, money-hungry materialists. Many of their schemes operate at a massive financial loss and are unpopular with the vast majority of the world's population."

Why would they be willing to do this?

"Because they are implementing an overarching plan that fundamentally transcends the profit motive. They have a well-established, spiritual vision of where they aim to take humanity and how they plan to transform the entire planet."

According to Thuletide, the plan has 3 basic objectives:

1. Transforming most of humanity into a subservient, feeble race, incapable of overthrowing the elite.
2. Micromanaging every aspect of our lives.
3. Establishing a global government, religion and currency.

How will the Deep State globalists be able to accomplish all that?

Through fear, propaganda and censorship, the destruction of the family, the indoctrination and confusion of the children in regards to gender/sex/race, open borders, and the destruction of private property, farms, personal wealth, health and faith (among many other things).

For more information, turn to your Bible. God knew Satan's plans long before Satan did.

A wise man once said: "How they plan to finalize this New World Order and tie everything together is anyone's guess. It may be a slow incrementalist trudge or an explosive crescendo, with massive war, famine, genocide, and disease. It may involve the crowning of some sort of "world prophet" or a messiah figure, who will "save" humanity by bringing "peace on earth." Either way, religion will likely play a central role." -- Thuletide

"Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil" (EPHESIANS 6:11).
