“Be strong and of good courage …”
— Deuteronomy 31:6
I admire people who display great courage.
One man in history known for his courage was Alexander the Great.
One day, Alexander held court in Nebuchadnezzar’s great palace in Babylon.
He sat upon the great golden throne, pronouncing sentences for the crimes charged to his soldiers.
The sergeant-at-arms brought in one soldier after another and read their crimes.
No one could deliver them from Alexander’s severe judgments.
Finally, the sergeant-at-arms brought in a young Macedonian soldier and read aloud his crime: fleeing in the face of the enemy.
This cowardice Alexander could not tolerate.
But as he looked on this young soldier, Alexander’s countenance changed from stern to soft.
Smiling, he said to the lad, “Son, what is your name?”
The boy said softly, “Alexander.”
The smile left the king’s face. He said, “What did you say?”
The young man snapped to attention. “Alexander, sir.”
The king turned crimson and shouted, “WHAT IS YOUR NAME?”
The boy began to stammer and said, “Al … Alex … Alexander, sir.”
The king burst out of his chair, grabbed the young man by the tunic, stared him in the face, then threw him on the ground and said, “Soldier, change your conduct or change your name!”
All of us have a name from our royal lineage.
What is that name? Christian!
And we need to live our lives in a manner worthy of that name.
Dear friend, I encourage you to be strong.
Be courageous. Obey the Lord.
Allow God to give you courage in Him—courage to do what God has told us to do, courage to avoid the things God has told us not to do, courage to stand up for Christ.
Let us not cower under fire but stand firm in the Lord’s name, living up to our calling as Christians.
“Courage is the virtue that makes other virtues possible.”

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.
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.

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!
