Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!
Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!
Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!

WILL WE KEEP THIS REPUBLIC GIVEN US BY THE FOUNDERS?

GREG LAURIE:

Imagine if Ben Franklin had invented a time machine. (It probably runs on lightning bolts that strike the kite attached to it.) Then he got some of his Constitution buddies together (Jefferson, Adams, Washington, etc.) and traveled to the present day United States. What do you think their reaction would be to the state of our country today? Besides being really impressed with Krispy Kreme doughnuts, I mean.
It's an interesting question, and I posed it to one of America's great thinkers, Eric Metaxas, to see what he would say. Eric has recently become a friend of mine and I have so much respect for him. Author of outstanding books such as Amazing Grace and Bonhoeffer, Eric is a brilliant intellectual who uses wit and analogy to bring home his point in a very understandable way.

Anyway, I asked him what he thought the Founders' reaction would be if they could see America today, and his answer was thought-provoking. He basically said that
  1. they would be shocked that the country is still here, because what they put into motion was a gamble, an experiment, an incredibly fragile venture, and
  2. their second reaction would probably be that of horror. They would be horrified that, after keeping it going for so long, we are on the verge of losing it.
America certainly has been, and still is, unique among the nations. Eric reminds us that it's our job, as citizens and as Christians, to maintain it. He recently wrote a book on this premise called If You Can Keep It. The title comes from an interesting story.

Do you want to hear it? Of course you do.

Well, I'm not going to tell you. You'll have to read the book.
OK, I'll tell you.

After drafting the Constitution with the other Founders, Benjamin Franklin walked out of Philadelphia's Independence Hall and a woman said to him, "Dr. Franklin, what have you given us: a monarchy or a republic?"

Franklin replied, "A republic, madam, if you can keep it." In other words, it is going to be up to you. The American people are the ones who are responsible to know, live, and pass on the ideas that these men set into motion. If we the people don't keep the republic, it goes away. The burden is not on the government, but on the people.

That thought is a little heavy, isn't it?

If You Can Keep It also reminds us that the liberty we enjoy is built on the foundation of the gospel. 

Without it, there would be no freedom. Self-governance is only possible for a virtuous people, and as morality weakens in our country, the system crumbles . . . like a stale cookie.

I have learned so many things by reading this great book by Eric Metaxas. I want to give my full endorsement of If You Can Keep It and strongly urge you to get a copy today. We will send you one as a thank-you gift for your donation to Harvest Ministries.

You can get it using the link below.

The rights we enjoy as Americans are especially important to us as Christians, because they allow us to present the gospel openly and freely.
Your contribution to this ministry allows us to boldly share the gospel, which is at the very heart of the liberties we enjoy. We'll be proclaiming that gospel nationwide in just a couple months through Harvest America, and I'm excited about that!

Thank you for standing with us in the gospel. 

In Christ,
Greg
