And Jacob called his sons and said, "Gather together, that I may tell you what shall befall you in the last days: "Gather together and hear, you sons of Jacob, And listen to Israel your father.
Genesis 49:1-2

"The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion."
Proverbs 28:1

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."
Isaiah 55:8-9 (NIV)

When Prophets Debate-Charisma, August 1998

I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints and prevailed against them . . .And he shall speak great words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and think to change times and laws; and they shall be given into his hand until a time, and times, and the dividing of time.
Daniel 7:21, 25

And Jesus said unto them, "See ye not all these things? Verily I say unto you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down." And as He sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of Thy coming and of the end of the world?" And Jesus answered and said unto them, "Take heed that no man deceive you; for many shall come in My name, saying, `I am Christ,' and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that ye be not troubled, for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you, and ye shall be hated by all nations for My name's sake. And then shall many lose faith and shall betray one another and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come.
Matthew 24:2-14

But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 'And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.

I will show wonders in heaven above And signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD. And it shall come to pass [That] whoever calls on the name of the LORD Shall be saved.'
Acts 2:16-21

I would that ye all spoke with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied; for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, unless he interpret, that the church may receive edifying. Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I shall speak to you either by revelation or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?

And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
1 Corinthians 14:5-8

Be not deceived: "Evil associations corrupt good manners." Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.
1 Corinthians 15:33-34

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance, persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra--what persecutions I endured. And out of [them] all the Lord delivered me. Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned [them], and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

All Scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3:1

God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they...

"So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised."
Hebrews 10:35-36 (NIV)

Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you! Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter. You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.

Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See [how] the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
James 5:1-8

Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."

For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day [is] as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning [His] promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner [of persons] ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless; and consider [that] the longsuffering of our Lord [is] salvation--as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you, as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable [people] twist to their own destruction, as [they do] also the rest of the Scriptures.

You therefore, beloved, since you know [this] beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked; but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him [be] the glory both now and forever. Amen.
2 Peter 3

And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?" . . .And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause to be killed as many as would not worship the image of the beast. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand or in their foreheads,that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name. Here is wisdom: Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred threescore and six.
Revelation 13:4,15-18

I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter." He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

WWJKD?: What Would John Kerry Do?

Joshua James Tilley | www.wisconsinchristiannews.com | 2005


What would John Kerry do if he were elected? What laws would he pass? What would he do to your constitutional freedoms?

Those who oppose our President George Bush call him a "war monger" among other names. They never use his voting record or his beliefs to cut him down, they use their opinion of his character. Sorry to break it to you, character doesn't get things done, votes do.

So for arguments sake let's overlook the fact that Saddam Hussein signed a contract allowing weapons inspectors the right to come in (Resolution 1441, 2002) and when asked to several times, did not, therefore breaking his contract. Or the fact that Time Magazine did an in-depth article on how his sons raped a 12 year old girl and her teenage sister for days while the parents were threatened with death if they interfered. And let's also forget about the thousands of men, woman and children whom he gassed and murdered because they opposed his mock "democracy."

Let's overlook all that stuff about George Bush and the war in Iraq and let's just focus our attention on his opponent, John Kerry. Let's just look at Kerry, how he thinks, how he votes, his political views and his religious views.

John Kerry thinks it's ok to kill babies. John Kerry said during the second debate that he would use federal money to fund abortions. John Kerry and many other misguided "christians" believe that you can personally believe abortion is wrong but at the same time believe that women still have the "right" to murder their own child. It doesn't matter what reason you have - if it's rape, incest, drunken stupidity, or even possibility of the mother's death, it doesn't matter.

That child has every right to live as you or I. Who are you to decide who dies? Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends." (John 14:13). Not to mention the fact that God "formed us in the womb" (Isaiah 44:2 & 4 and others) and we are not our own. If Jesus was willing to give His life in the hope we would live, how much more should a mother take the chance of losing her life for her child if need be?

John Kerry will vote for whatever he thinks will get him elected that is why he is "for" and "against" abortion. Sort of like how he voted "for" the war in Iraq and is now "against" it and "for" it. I'll go more in depth into this subject (abortion) in the next few months, but for right now go to www.churchofquestion.com and click on the abortion photos link and then tell me abortion is a choice and not murder.

John Kerry will vote to allow gay marriages. Why is another individual's sexual preference any of my business? It's not. Sexual preference is not the point. Gay people can be as gay as they want. I know you hear different pastors and speakers listing a number of different reasons for not allowing gay marriage ranging from reason like "because God says so" to "it will break down the family." Now these are true but these are not my concerns. The world will always go against God's will and the devil constantly tries to break down the family via porn, drinking, sex, etc. My concern is that if and when homosexuality becomes a civil issue it instantly makes anyone who disagrees with it a bigot and makes our Bible a hate book.

You may be thinking "that will never happen." Well, Canada has already passed "hate laws" that protect homosexuals from being discriminated against. The legal jargon is so vague that even saying you disagree with homosexuality is considered a crime. If homosexual marriage is made legal, every single good Christian church would either be shut down from law suits or have to quit doing marriages completely.

Making gay marriage a civil issue would equate it with that of the civil rights movement. If an interracial couple walked into a church and asked to be married and the church said that they do not marry interracial couples they would have a legal right to sue that church and they should. But if gay marriage is made legal then every Bible-believing church would deny gays the right to marry, therefore infringing upon their rights.

John Kerry voted last month to make it a "hate crime" to disagree with homosexuality. So much for our freedom of speech. Again I will discuss this more in the next few months.

And finally....John Kerry will try to take away every gun you own. Some people, even Christians, think that a world without guns would be a better place. Well if this is you, let me remind you that without guns we would be British, Hitler would have taken over the world, and Saddam would still be killing people by the thousands. A world without guns is an unreachable goal. As long as there are people, people will kill each other. And if you honestly believe making guns illegal would stop crime then look at Great Britain. America's First Freedom magazine did an article on Britain and how they outlawed all guns across the board and their gun crime rate went up by more than double! Yes I said, GUN CRIME RATE. Felons who can't have guns and commit the majority of gun crime are not going to register their guns, nor will they hand their guns over. That's why they are felons; they don't care about the law. Taking away the rights of law-abiding Americans will not stop crime, it will only increase it.

Well so what? Why do I think John Kerry, who says he is an avid hunter, would take away our guns? Well let's look at his voting record. The fact is that John Kerry voted to outlaw semi-automatic guns and not just once, but nine times. John Kerry, along with his friend Ted Kennedy, voted to outlaw common ammunition used by hunters. John Kerry voted more than once to hold gun manufacturing companies liable if a crime occurs with their gun (can I sue a car company for making the car that a felon uses to commit a crime?) John Kerry voted to make it illegal to sell your gun to another individual at a gun show. John Kerry voted to put you in prison for up to a year along with a $10,000 fine if a juvenile steals your gun and simply displays it in a public place (again would you want to be held responsible if a kid stole your car?)

John Kerry voted to outlaw pistol grips on shotguns, as if how you hold a gun makes you kill people. John Kerry voted for the Brady Bill which didn't have any effect on the gun crime rate at all and since it was lifted continues to be of no effect.

John Kerry is a paid representative of the people and yet he missed 40 straight votes before finally coming back to do his job and vote to outlaw my semi-auto .22 rifle, the same gun I use to hunt squirrels (where I come from, attendance like that would get you fired not promoted to president of the company).

The constitution guarantees the rights of all Americans to bear arms because if we see fit we can rise up and overthrow our government if it gets out of hand. Now I'm not encouraging taking over the government, I'm just saying if we somehow elected a Hitler-type president you can bet that myself and others would rise up and take this country back. The book of Revelation tells us that Christians will be killed for their beliefs in the end times. I know I would protect my family from ending up in an Auschwitz. But that's hard to do with an air rifle and a sling shot.

John Kerry wants to take away the baby's right to live. John Kerry wants to take away our freedom of speech. And finally, John Kerry wants to take away our constitutional rights. He doesn't care about life, our constitutional freedoms or our American Christian heritage. He will say whatever you want to hear to make you vote for him.

George Bush will vote pro-life, pro-freedom, and pro-constitution. They say George Bush, the "war monger?" I wonder where the United States would be today if other countries would not have sacrificed for us in our fight for freedom and independence. The way I see it, we were given the gift of freedom and we are obligated to give that same gift to others. Viva Iraq!
