Jesus Vs. Satan, with Humans Caught Between

Jesus is pure, 100% Truth and Love, and therefore pure white light.  Satan is 100% Lies and Hate, and therefore pure blackness.  Humans are God's lost sheep wandering in the gray wilderness area between Jesus and Satan.

Jesus (Truth + Love), Satan (Lies + Hate), and Humans in the gray are between


Truth can be used as a weapon.  I have seen (and personally experienced) the use of truth as a weapon.

What is truth without love?

When someone claims they love somebody, they will sometimes shelter the object of their "love" from the full truth.  White lies are told.  Part truths are told, where the "not so nice" parts are left out.  Part truths are sugar coated.  The story is twisted and coloured to the advantage of the one speaking.

Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965) said,
 "In war-time, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies". 
With the amount of lying that occurs today, we all must be in a continuous state of war.

What is love without truth?

Love depends upon trust.

Trust is created and nurtured and protected by 4 mandatory factors:
  • Benevolent best interest in the other party (ie. love)
  • Open & honest communication (ie. Truth)
  • Competency
  • Predictable behaviour
If one or more of these 4 factors are missing, weak, or violated, trust is quickly stopped, or reduced, or destroyed.  Trust should take a significant period of time (and a number of sequential event) to slowly arise naturally.

Only Jesus can be fully trusted forever.  Period.  End of story.

Trusting humans isn't so easy.  Many people make the mistake of trusting too much or too quickly.  Others trust too little or too late.  All of these extreme cases have significant losses, risks, and dysfunctional outcomes.  Even when we trust the right amount at the right time, we are sometimes disappointed by a breach of our precious trust.

While trust can take a long time to form, it is usually destroyed in the blink of an eye.

Jesus embodies both truth and love simultaneously.

Jesus said there is no truth in Satan.  Inside Satan, there is pure hate for all that is good.

We humans are like lost sheep that wander in the gray area between Jesus and Satan.  We nibble the grass here, then go over there for what seems like good reasons at the time.  Often, there is little or no awareness, a lack of caring, miserly sharing, intermittent perseverance, a mediocre rate of improvement, and unclear or unspecific goals in our lives.  For the most part, we humans do as we please.  We run away to a different area when the consequences get too painful or risky.

If Satan starts to nip at our heels, we run a little closer to Jesus so as to be under His protection.  As soon as the immediate danger passes, we wander back to the darker shades of gray as we please.  In other words, most of us lack any visible commitment and consistency in our behaviors, and half-hearted allegiance to Jesus Christ.  Most of us are mediocre Christians, luke warm at best.

Most people don't realize we are now in End Times.  Times have changed.  We need to change too.

The geographical size of the gray area is shrinking fast.  The shade of gray is getting a darker and darker.  Soon there will be a chronic shortage of the gray area that remains,, and an uncomfortable shade of gray (ie. a significant lack of light) .  As the gray area disappears more & more, we humans will soon be forced to choose:   Pure White or Pure Black.

If you fail to choose, Pure Black is the default, with you eventually being tossed into the Lake of Fire with eternal suffering.

You must make a conscious, express choice of Jesus Christ, Heaven, light, white, and everlasting life.

Choose soon.

Make sure all your family, friends, and neighbours understand the important choice that must soon be made.

Is Nov. 1, 2018 the Day of End Times? Update 2

***   2018-11-24 ***
Nov. 1st has come & gone, and we are still here.  Some sources say Hanukkah 2018 (Dec. 1 to Dec. 10, 2018) is the next "High Watch" period, the last one for this year.  True or not, don't get caught asleep and un-prepared.  Whether today or tomorrow, those who are aware know time is short, He comes very soon.


*** 2018-10-26 Update ***

While I stand behind all of the original posting, there is an addendum.

Israel has massed the IDF army on their border with Gaza, but are likely awaiting a critical incident that sparks their invasion to stop the chronic acts of terrorism against Israel, launched by Hamas from their Gaza stronghold.  This ticking timebomb has an unknown deadline, but "soon" is highly probable.  There are a number of important anniversary dates in the Hebrew month of Kislev.

US sanctions against Iran for nuclear weapons proliferation will be fully in place when the harshest phase comes into effect on Nov. 4, 2018.  If the sanctions begin, the Iranian people may revolt against their government.  This internal threat may cause Iran to go to war so as to unify Iranians against their foreign enemies rather than the Iranian government.  It is unclear if this will occur just before the Nov. 4th deadline, or soon thereafter.

Russia has been heavily sanctioned  on what many believe to be false flag or trumped-up charges for more than 4 years.  Russia has repeatedly warned that they will defend themselves and their allies (eg. the Syrian government and armed forces) from attack.  Russia has Super-EMP nuclear weapons, and recently added hyper-sonic ICBM's to their arsenal, all of which the USA and NATO have no defense against.  About 60% of Russia's GDP comes from oil & natural gas sales, but USA and its allies have been maneuvering in the UkraineMiddle East , and elsewhere for more than 10 years to take away Russia's important energy sales to Europe, and crush Russia.  When repeatedly poked with a sharp stick, even the most meek person will eventually strike back at their tormentor.  This is a ticking time bomb with an unknown deadline.

US Mid-term elections are on Nov. 6, 2018.  The Democrats are hoping to maintain or strengthen their hold on the House, and re-take the Senate.  The Red Wave of Republicans is rising, as well as the rhetoric and polarization between these two warring camps.  When the results are in, there will likely be civil unrest by the sore losers, charges or corruption or unfair election tactics, and an emboldened legislative agenda by the victors.  Is mob rule, riots, anarchy, and eventually civil war in the USA a possibility?

Persecution of Christians is rising around the world, now believed to exceed 8% of all Christians who are directly affected, just as Jesus and the Bible predicted.

I therefore conclude that Nov. 1st to 6th are high watch periods.  Make sure all virgins have plenty of oil on hand (ie. Parable of 10 Virgins awaiting the Wedding Feast, Matthew 25:1-13 ).

*** End of 2018-10-25 Update ***


Pastor Ken Peters (a long time modern Prophet, see his famous 1981 End Times Prophesy) claims that on Nov. 1, 2015  he received the Word of God that He will be disrupting all nations within 3 years.

If you aren't already a True Christian, you'd better hurry up as there is only 16 days left as of this posting.

Ken said God defined Nov. 1st as a new special day on God's calendar.

The year 2015 was something quite special, as it had:
  • Mar. 20, 2015 (Nisan 1, 1st day of God's calendar) was the Spring Equinox that year, and also had a New Moon on that day
     
  • Mar. 20, 2015 also had an eclipse (running up the mid-Atlantic and then over Russia)
     
  • Mar. 20, 2015 eclipse is last eclipse on Europe till 2024
     
  • Mar. 20 2015 eclipse passed directly over the North Pole  (a very rare occurrence)
     
  • Mar 20 2015 new moon was a Super Moon
  • Blood Moon Tetrad on God's Feast Days (Passover & Tabernacles), 2014 - 2015
  • Blood Moon Tetrads on God's Holy Festival days.  On April 15, 2014, there was a total lunar eclipse which was the first of four consecutive total eclipses in a series, known as a tetrad; a second one took place on October 8, 2014, the third one on April 4, 2015, and the remaining one took place on September 27, 2015.
  • June 30, 2015 Bethlehem Star (ie. a conjunction of Jupiter and Venus) re-appears for 1st time in 2,000 years (since the birth of Jesus Christ).
 As you can see, 2015 was an important year for Biblical signs.  Now, Ken Peters adds his Nov. 1, 2015 prophesy to the mix.

Here is a video of Ken Peters' prophesy of Nov. 1, 2015.  It wasn't clear if the 3 year window ended on the exact same day Nov. 1, 2018, or before the end of that year (Year 5779 in the Jewish calendar, ending Mar. 19, 2019).



Ecclesiates 1:9 tells us that there is never anything new under the sun.  History repeats.  If Nov. 1st will be a special day in 2018, was it a special day in the past?  God doesn't work on the Gregorian calendar.  The Rabbinical calendar of today may not be God's eternal calendar.. There are 3 to 5 different calendars that claim to be God's calendar.

Neither Ancient Enoch Calendar (powered by Unity, 14ths day of 8th Month for Nov. 1st, 2018) nor torahcalendar.com (Month 8, 22nd or 23rd day) have anything on Nov. 1 2015 nor Nov. 1 2018.

Rabbi calendar http://chabad.org (23rd day of Cheshvan= Nov. 1, 2018) says in Talmudic times, Cheshvan 23 was commemorated as the day on which the stones of the altar which were defiled by the Greeks were removed from the Holy Temple in 137 BC.

Rabbi calendar http://chabad.org  shows 14th day of 8th Month (Enoch Nov. 1, 2018) has no significant Jewish history, but 15th day was death of Macabees leader in 139 BC, and Kristallnacht in 1938 AD.

Rabbi calendar http://chabad.org on Oct 31, 1990 ( 18 Cheshvan, 5776) has Meir Kahane (founder of Jewish Defense League) was assassinated.



My thanks to my Brother in Jesus Christ, Jocko Prinsloo at God's Roadmap to the End
for his video bringing Ken Peters' Nov. 1, 2015 prophesy to my attention.

True Christian or Nominal Christian? Choose Wisely

Most Christians believe they are guaranteed a spot in Heaven.  Yet the Bible tells us there will be many who assume they will go to Heaven.  However, Jesus says that only a few will go to Heaven, and most people will be kicked out as obnoxious party crashers.

If you are kicked out of Heaven, there is only one other place to go; the Lake of Fire in Hell where your soul will be punished forever and ever.

For example, in Luke 13:22-28, the Bible tells us about Jesus doing his ministry:
"And He [Jesus Christ] went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem. Then said one unto Him, 'Lord, are there few that be saved?' And He said unto them, 'Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.  When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open unto us'; and he shall answer and say unto you, 'I know you not whence ye are':  Then shall ye begin to say, 'We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets'. But he shall say, 'I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity [iniquity is chronic, premeditated sin]'. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out."
So why do so many assume they should be let into God's House (ie. Heaven for Everlasting Life), but only a few will be allowed to enter and be saved from the Lake of Fire, and its everlasting torment?

I suggest the reason is that many or most are Nominal Christians, and are not True Christians.  True Christians are those who:
  • Believe in Jesus Christ;
  • Follow God's Will (ie. His Commandments) on a consistent basis; and
  • Practice all the teachings of Jesus Christ on a consistent basis.
If all you give is a few dollars and lip service to being a Christian, you should wake up, smell the coffee, and realize you are fooling yourself and possibly a few humans who don't know you well.  Anybody who knows you well, and certainly God and Jesus will know well and good that you are a hypocrite, a phony, a Nominal Christian.

To help you understand this better, here is a flowchart (ir more correctly known as a Concept Map), showing how God, Jesus, and Humans are inter-connected, and the only path to Heaven.

Interactions of God, Jesus, and Humans, the Opportunities & Consequences

Between now and Dec. 10, 2018 I believe Jesus will take the next step in His End Times process.  I am not sure what that next step will be.  Thousands or millions may die in WW III, or the Rapture will occur, or something else.  If you aren't a True Christian today, and don't become one between now and Dec. 10th, it will likely be too late for you; earning you a 1-way ticket to Hell.

Satan's Choice: The Weakest Links

Satan is smart.  He usually attacks at the weakest link in the chain.  You need to know your weakest link, and get it reinforced now.  Let's look at Satan's strengths, human weaknesses, and where Satan  is likely to attack.  Here are the first 2 of the top 4 weak links.  The next 2 will be the next posting

Pride 

The Bible tells us in Ezekiel 28:12-18, Isaiah 14:12-15, Job 41:34, Proverbs 16:18 to be wary of pride.  Pride was the start of Satan's downfall.

After doing great things, we are tired, and take a rest.  If we lose our focus, rest turns into sloth.  All those around us, including ourselves, know what sloth and laziness looks like.  To protect ourselves from criticism and consequences, we start resting on our laurels of past achievements instead of today's work.
 
In John 8:7, when questioned about judgement against an adulterous woman, Jesus said, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her."

In a similar way, how can I successfully attack someone who has already achieved more than myself, even though they now rest on their laurels?
 
Instead of pride and laurel resting, we need to learn from the Canadian goose.  Geese fly in a V-shaped formation because it reduces the aerodynamic drag, making flight easier for all members of the flock.  The strongest goose leads their flock, as the spear point of the V-formation faces the greatest wind resistance.  Everyone within the body of the V-formation honks encouragement to the lead goose throughout their flight.  Once the current leader becomes tired, and can no longer lead the flock at the maximum speed, the next strongest goose naturally pushes forward at a faster pace.  Everybody else naturally falls in behind the new leader, again taking advantage of the slip stream created in the newly configured V-formation.  This ensures the flock always travels at the most efficient speed, with no pride nor laurel resting.
 
How will you help arrange your family, your neighbourhood, your work, your community, and your country so as to avoid Satan's pride and laurel resting?

Sex and Lust

Satan has been busy making our human society more and more hypersexual.  Lust is defined as a very strong sexual desire.  Almost all sexual taboos and limitations on acceptable behaviour have been removed by:
  • relaxation and changes in the law;
  • through the discretionary enforcement of the law;
  • Books, movies, music, advertising, and other media;
  • Distractions
  • Poor examples by societal heroes and leaders
  • the breakdown of the family unit
If Satan attacks a member of a church congregation or club, that wayward member is easily chastised, removed, or shunned.  However, if Satan attacks the leader of the church or club, the entire organization is destroyed.  If the leader cannot be corrupted, perhaps Satan will attack via the spouse, or the children, or the friends of the leader.

Have all leaders adequately warned those who support or surround the leader to be aware of Satan and his evil plans?
