Judgment day will arrive unexpectedly

What’s in the news today?

We are informed about the increasing terrorism throughout the world. Lawlessness and immorality are out of control. Identification chip technology (RFID) is beginning to be used for implanting into the human body. Our world is being driven toward a One World Order, in the form of a global government, global economy and global religion. We see people seeking for what sounds good, rather than the word of God and his truth. Tensions in the Middle East continue to intensify.

Are these the signs of the final days of this Earth as we know it?

The Bible gives many examples of signs that should warn us of the coming end of the age. The Bible makes it clear in the last days Israel would be surrounded by her enemies, and would be at the focus of global attention.

Jesus warned that no man knows the day or the hour. However, he did expect us to heed the signs of the times and the seasons. It appears abundantly clear that such a season may be well upon us. Prophecy is being fulfilled daily, and at a faster pace than ever before. Unfortunately, most humans will be deceived because they will not heed his warnings.

It’s going to be like it was in the days of Noah, people were going on with business as usual, right up until the time when God’s judgment, the flood, came and took them away. No one acknowledged God’s warnings then, except for Noah and his family.

It could be months or years before God’s judgment comes, but one thing is for sure: We are moving ever closer to the fulfillment of God’s word.

Everything will happen just as he said it would. If ever in the history of America there was a time for our nation to stand up and identify with their Lord, it is now, before the judgment begins. For all who will listen, Jesus, God’s son, is the only way of salvation, and escape from judgment.

The pieces of the puzzle are getting set in place. Our world is being prepared for that final hour the Bible predicted 2,000 years ago. If God is ready, are we?

Don’t be deceived. Study the Bible to know what is coming and be prepared.

Insurance mandate violates religious freedoms
The Health and Human Services mandate requiring employers to carry insurance that covers contraceptives, including surgical sterilization and abortifacients, requires Christian schools and charitable and medical organizations to violate their conscience or face fines of $2,000/employee. This forces Christian organizations to either close down or violate the mandate.

Hypnosis dates to Adam and Eve’s act of sin
I saw the article on hypnosis in the newspaper and was reminded how far away this generation has fallen from the truth of God’s holy word, the Bible.

Justice if different in Elkhart County
A warning to the uninformed: there is justice and there is Elkhart County justice, and any resemblance between the two is largely coincidental.

Donations can help house families
I read with concern the headline in The Goshen News on Wednesday. Our Goshen Housing Authority needs $571,050 to continue the local rent assistance voucher program and avoid slashing services. That is over half a million dollars. Coming up with that large an amount seems hopeless. The related article went on to say that 71 households with 126 children could be directly affected by this shortfall. That is $8,043 per family unit or $4,532 per child.

Bishop says HHS rules violate separation of church and state
On Friday, Jan. 20th, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that almost all employers, including Catholic employers, will be forced to offer their employees health coverage that includes sterilization, abortion-inducing drugs and contraception. Almost all health insurers will be forced to include those “services” in the health policies they write. And almost all individuals will be forced to buy that coverage as a part of their policies.

Cut of Rieth Interpretive Center part-time coordinator will be felt
Praise, lament and wish encompass my feelings for the termination of the part-time position of program coordinator for the Rieth Interpretive Center in the Goshen Parks Department. Praise is for Melissa Kinsey’s effective, “full-time” effort in being the right person in the right place to work at the purpose for the RIC.
