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!

ACTS Chapter 1 - Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven

Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven

In my former book, Theophilus,
I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to Teach
2 UNTIL THE DAY HE WAS TAKEN UP TO HEAVEN,
AFTER GIVING INSTRUCTIONS THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT
TO THE APOSTLES HE AHD CHOSE.

3After His Suffering,
He showed Himself to these men
AND GAVE MANY CONVINCING PROOFS
THAT HE WAS ALIVE.

HE APPEARED TO THEM OVER A PERIOD OF FORTY DAYS
AND SPOKE ABOUT THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

4 On one occasion, while He was eating with them,
HE GAVE THEM THIS COMMANMD:

'DO NOT LEAVE JERUSALEM,
BUT WAIT FOR THE GIFT MY FATHER PROMISED,
WHICH YOU HAVE HEARD ME SPEAK ABOUT.

5 FOR JOHN BAPTIZED WITH WATER,
BUT IN A FEW DAYS
YOU WILL BE BAPTIZED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.

6 So when they met together,
They asked Him,
'LORD, ARE YOU AT THIS TIME
GOING TO RESTORE THE KINGDOM TO ISRAEL?'

7 He said to them:
'IT IS NOT FOR YOU TO KNOW
THE TIMMES OR DATES THE FATHER HAS SET
BY HIS OWN AUTHORITY.

BUT YOU WILL RECIEVE POWER
WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES ON YOU;
AND YOU WILL BE MY WITNESSES IN JERUSALEM,
AND IN ALL JUDEA AND SAMARIA,
AND TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH.'

9 After He said this,
HE WAS TAKEN UP BEFORE THEIR VERY EYES,
AND A CLOUD HID HIM FROM THEIR SIGHT.

10 They were looking Intently up into the sky
As He was going,
When Suddenly two men dressed in white
Stood beside them.

11 'Men of Galilee,' they said,
'WHY DO YOU STAND HERE LOOKING INTO THE SKY?

THIS SAME JESUS,
WHO HAS BEEN TAKEN FROM YOU INTO HEAVEN,
WILL COME BACK IN THE SAME WAY
YOU HAVE SEEN HIM GO INTO HEAVEN.'

Matthias Chosen To Replace Judas

12 Then they returned to Jerusalem
From the Hill called the Mount of Olives,
As Sabbath Day's walk from the City.
13 When they arrived,
They went Upstairs to the Room
Where they were staying.

Those Present were Peter, John, James and Andrew;
Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew;
James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot,
And Judas son of James.

16 THEY ALL JOINED TOGETHER CONSTANLY IN PRAYER,
Along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus,
And His brothers.

15 in those days
Peter stood up among the Believers
(A group numbering about a hundred and twenty)
16 And said,

'BROTHERS, THE SCRIPTURE HAD TO BE FULFILLED
WHICH THE HOLY SPIRIT SPOKE LONG AGO
THROUGH THE MOUTH OF DAVID
CONCERNING JUDAS,
WHO SERVED AS A GUIDE FOR THOSE
WHO ARRESTED JESUS--

17 He was one of our number
And Shared in this Ministry.'

18 (With the Reward he got for his Wickedness,
Judas bought a field;
There he fell headlong,
His body burst open and all his intestines spilled out.
19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard about his,
So they called that field in their language
Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)

20 'For,' said Peter, 'it is written in the Book of Psalms,

'May his place be deserted;
Let there be no one to dwell in it,'
And
'May another take his place of Leadership.'

21 Therefore it is Necessary
To choose one of the men
Who have been with us the whole time
The Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

22 Beginning from John's baptism
To the time when Jesus was taken up from us.
FOR ONE OF THESE MUST BECOME A WITNESS WITH US
OF HIS RESURRECTION.'

23 So they proposed two men:
Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus)
And Matthias.

24 Then they prayed,
'LORD, YOU KNOW EVERYONES' HEART.
SHOW US WHICH OF THESE TWOYOU HAVE CHOSEN
TO TAKE OVER THIS APOSTOLIC MINISTRY,
WHICH JUDAS LEFT TO GO WHERE HE BELONGS.'

26 Then they drew lots,
And the lot fell to Matthias;
So he was added to the Eleven Apostles.
(Acts 1)
