6/1/2025 John 3:36 Believe Intro: There are things every day that we must believe in order not to be hurt or killed. Don't touch a hot stove. Don't get to close to the edge of that cliff. Don't smoke cigarettes, don't drink and drive, don't eat that, don't go into certain parts of a city, don't take that vaccine, don't, don't, don't. While God has a lot of don't's…God gives warnings as He should. The wages of sin is death, the soul that sinneth it shall die….but He also says the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. With every warning there is the admonition to believe…..

6/1/2025 Joel 3:1-2 Hosea 3:4-5 No Two State Solution! Intro: God promised in the Abrahamic Covenant they would be His people and occupy His land Genesis 12 and 15. Genesis 12:2-3 is the promise And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land. 7 And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the Lord, who appeared unto him. Genesis 15:18 is the boundaries of the land. In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: And that means that they must occupy the land again in the last days. Ezekiel chapters 36 and 37 God tells His people that they will occupy the land again in the last days. They will be brought from the gentile nations after being scattered among the gentiles. The UN wants Two States. Israel and Palestine. It might happen. I can't say it won't…. but one thing I can say….God is not going to be happy about it and will destroy those who try to do it!

5/28/22025 Luke 19:41 Hatred Of Israel Today Intro: Most people call it Anti-semitism…..what is a Semite? A person who speak a Semitic language, including Jews and Arabs. Semita is the latin for the Greek word “Sem” or “Shem” a son of Noah in the Bible who these people are supposedly descended. Semitic people is an ethnic or racial group associated with people of the Middle East including Arabs, Jews, Akkadians and Pheonicians. Descendents of Shem included Hebrews, Aramaeans, Assyrians and Arabs. Any groups who speak a Semitic language. My point…..It's not Antisemitism…… it's Anti-Hebraism. Anti-Judaism. Anti- Sons of Jacob, Anti-Jewish people. And it has infected the whole world including the modern day church! Many national podcasts and national conservative Christian broadcasters are Anti-Jewish people. Blaming Jews for all the trouble in the world. This is not acceptable with God. Genesis 12:3 I will bless them that bless thee. Psalm 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

5/18/2025 1 John 4:8-10 It's All About Self Intro: I've heard many people say that they think that they will be in heaven because they are good people. But what is their standard? Their standard is they have never committed murder, or been dishonest or are fairly truthful. That might be fine if you're renting a house or buying a car….but entrance into heaven with a holy sinless God……. we might have to rethink that. Getting to heaven requires more than applying for a job or for a loan. A whole lot more! In fact it requires total perfection! Self will send us all to hell! Self is the person that we have the most trouble with in our lives. “I” am the problem with my life. It's me! It's all about self…selfishness and self-righteousness without the righteousness of God.

5/18/2025 Proverbs 2:10-22 Jesus Christ The Wisdom Of God Intro: Ephesians 3:9-11 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: 10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, 11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Jesus Christ is the wisdom of God, The power of God, the love of God and the glory of God. Jesus Christ is the answer to every question. The reason for life and the purpose of our life and Life itself! If you don't understand that then you don't really understand true wisdom.

Revelation 12:1-9 The Woman Who Destroyed The Devil Intro: Revelation chapter 12 is all about the Devil and the Jew. And the Devils attempt to destroy every single Jew on the earth. How important is it to be faithful to just do the little things, the unimportant things. Well Israel is the smallest of all nations. And one very young simple Jewish woman found out that just being a faithful maiden led to the end of the Devil. God always uses the small unnoticed and unheralded to bring about His glorious purposes!

5/4/2025 Psalm 41 Five Facts Of Living Intro: We are all told of the facts of life when we were young people. I'm not talking about those facts. I think this generation has almost ruined those facts. Men with men and women with women. But God gave us the facts of living. What living is all about. Having a full life. And enjoyable life. An interesting life.

5/4/2025 Revelation 17 Mystery Babylon The One world religion Intro: Monday, February 4th 2017 On that day Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of al-Azhar, Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, met together and signed ‘A Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together', a declaration calling for tolerance and peace among the nations of the world. There are over one billion Muslims and 1.3 billion baptized Catholics in the world. One out of every Four Americans are Catholic. That means that one third of all the people on the earth are either Catholic or Muslim. That does not include their influence on the rest of the world who are not adherents. The signing represents the first time there's ever been a papal visit to the Arab-Gulf states, while marking a historical breakthrough in Roman Catholic/Muslim dialogue. It's prophetic because of Revelation 17. Many think this is just religious Babylon. It is…..but much more than that.

The Gideon ministry is still going strong today after 126 years. Over 2 billion Bibles have been freely distributed by this Christian Businessmen's organization. All of us have been given at least one in our life time.

4/20/2025 1 Peter 1:18-25 Three Eternal Gifts From God To Man Intro: On this resurrection Sunday….We know God loves because He gives gifts unto man. Ephesians 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. Sometime between the cross and the resurrection He took the people who died before the cross to heaven with Him. He filled heaven with his gifts, filled earth with his gifts. He handed out gifts of apostle, prophet, evangelist, and pastor-teacher to train Christ's followers in skilled servant work, working within Christ's body, the church, and He gave us the greatest gift…HIMSELF as our Lord and Savior! And that includes three eternal gifts He gave us that are eternal and vital to us all!

4/13/2025 Genesis 15:14-21 God Promises A Land For His People Intro: Do you own land? It is a very satisfying thing to own your own land. It gives you a sense of purpose and place. The world elite don't want you to own you own land. That gives you too much power. That gives you too much control over your own life. They want to put you in fifteen minute cities. Well God wanted His people to have a place and land of their own to give them a sense of purpose and identity. God made a promise to Abraham that is still in affect today and forever!

4/6/2025 Ecclesiastes 3:11-15 God Gives Order and Purpose To Life Intro: With so much chaos and confusion in the world today. Wars and rumors of wars, fighting among political rivals, disasters, storms, crime, hatred, murder, disease, uncertainty….people are under a great deal of stress. The wicked seem to be gaining every advantage. And they are…… because Satan is the god of this world. But he won't be much longer that I can guarantee! Some one said on Facebook the other day that what used to be one hundred years between unprecedented weather disasters is now one hundred days. He is right! Everything is amplified today. The news cycle is hourly now instead of weekly. Things change and major news happens every hour now! What happened last week is old news surpassed by the events of today! But……God……..

4/6/2025 Revelation 17 Chrislam the One world religion Intro: Monday, February 4th 2017 On that day Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of al-Azhar, Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, met together and signed ‘A Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together', a declaration calling for tolerance and peace among the nations of the world.

3/30/2025 Psalms 3 What An Awesome God We Serve Intro: The historical background to the psalm is described in 2 Samuel 15—17. Though David petitioned in verse 7, Arise, O Lord; save me, it is clear from 2 Samuel 15:32–37 that David shrewdly sent his friend Hushai back to Jerusalem to deceive Absalom. David used tricks of the trade….. but trusted only in God. I love the Song….Our God is an awesome God! He reigns from Heaven above….. with wonder, power and love…..our God is an awesome God! He truly is and we don't realize one tenth of one percent of how great He is! David gives us a glimpse in this passage.

3/30/2025 4 Beasts, 7 Kings, 7 Heads and 10 Horns Intro: Basically…The Four beasts are Babylon, Medo Persia, Greece and Rome. Four nations that were great world empires that controlled Israel after the Babylonian captivity. The Seven Kings are those nations that also ruled over Israel from the Beginning at Moses til the Tribulation. Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome, and the revived Roman Empire. The Henry Morris Study Bible believes the seven heads are Sumerians, Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome. More about that later…..

3/23/2025 He Gave Some Something He Gave All Everything Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers. It was he who “gave gifts to people”; he appointed some to be apostles, others to be prophets, others to be evangelists, others to be pastors and teachers. **And [His gifts to the church were varied and] He Himself appointed some as apostles [special messengers, representatives], some as prophets [who speak a new message from God to the people], some as evangelists [who spread the good news of salvation], and some as pastors and teachers [to shepherd and guide and instruct]. Pastors do all for the church that a literal shepherd does for sheep: feeds, nurtures, cares for, and protects them from enemies. A shepherd's task is not to acquire sheep. However, if a shepherd does what he is supposed to do, he will have healthy sheep and his flock will grow. This passage ties the two titles teachers and pastors closely together here, elsewhere they are listed separately.

3/16/2025 Mark 4:37-40 The Trouble With Trouble Intro: They say that there are 365 “fear not's” and “be not afraid's” in the Bible. I've never counted them, but I have always heard that. That means that God does not want us to be afraid. Troubles will come. Evil is still on the job. The wicked are working harder than ever. The demonic world is working 24-7 for they know that time is short. If they know it's short how much more should we? It is a time of great fear for the future. The enemies of God are looking to destroy us. The world is in upheaval. Storms, floods, volcanoes, Tsunamis, hurricanes, tornados, and earthquakes are happening every day. People are divided like never before. Wars and rumors of wars are happening more than ever. All this is happening just like the Bible said. What do we do? Nothing….I will explain.

3/9/2025 Luke 15 The Real Story Behind The Story Intro: We all know the story of the Prodigal Son. But is it just a redemption story of a wayward son? It's a wonderful story of the grace of God as seen in the earthly father. But I think the story is the story of the battle that has gone on since the Garden of Eden.

3/2/2025 Matthew 23:24 The Truth About Liars Intro: We have so many people today that have written books and articles disparaging the church, the basic teachings of the Bible, even the essentials of the faith. These guys spend weeks writing a book and instantly become great Biblical scholars and teachers. They have studied the words and the languages and have great knowledge, but the Bible says they lack one thing….Sight! They are blind guides and teachers of darkness. Matthew 23:24 Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Matthew 23:24-39 is Jesus condemnation of the Jewish nation and it's false teachers and a warning for all false teachers.

2/23/2025 Acts 3:22-26 Expect The Unexpected Intro: The one you fail to notice will be the most important one. Remember when Samuel invited Jesse to the sacrifice. God told him that one of Jesse's sons would be the next king. Jesse brought seven sons before Samuel. But God had not chosen them. Samuel asked “do you have any more sons?” Jesse said he had the youngest who was out in the fields tending sheep. When David came in from the fields God told Samuel to anoint him as king. The youngest, smallest and least of all the brothers. God sent Jesus the son of a humble carpenter, born in a stable to become the Savior of the World. Expect the Unexpected with God.

2/16/2025 Matthew 24:36-46 The Sudden Appearance Of Jesus Christ Intro: No one likes unexpected visitors. It's not that we don't like the people but we like to be notified when someone comes to our house in these days. Back in the old days visitors were common before telephones and telegraphs there was “tell a woman.” People visited each other. Now it is very uncommon for people to stop by. In fact it is so uncommon that most people won't answer the door. We are not prepared for unexpected visitors. We are in our pajama's or less. The bathroom is not cleaned. Clothes are everywhere. Dishes are piled up. Dust is everywhere. We just don't prepare for visitors in our culture anymore. That sets us up perfectly for the sudden appearance of the Lord. We are in the generation of “Don't bother my world” generation. We don't want any interruptions to our little silly lives. But one day they will be interrupted by a visitor that we should have been prepared to meet. But sadly….most will not be ready.

2/9/2025 Ezekiel 22:25-31 Conspiracy Against God Intro: I heard a man the other day say he was against Religion. I am too. So was Jesus! The Bible and Christianity is about a person…Jesus Christ! A Relationship not a religion. Jesus Christ is alive and well on the right hand of the Father. He sent His Spirit to live in us until we are in His presence forever! But to say we hate religion are being totally honest. I don't think they are inferring that they hate God also. They just don't understand how God has revealed Himself to humanity. So they believe in God but they have created a conspiracy against the God of the Bible without even knowing it. They have created their own prophets and preachers. Wokeness, do as thou wilt was spoken by Satanist Aleister Crowley when he said “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.” There is a conspiracy to promote man and demote God. Conspiracy is a plot, ploy, or scheme. McDonalds conspires to get you to buy their hamburgers and fries by their

2/2/2025 1 Thessalonians 2:10-13 Behave Yourself Intro: The world today has a mantra….Please yourself no matter what. Make sure you meet your wants and needs no matter who it involves. They believe you can sin without impunity. No punishment, no regret, no repercussions and no penalty. “Do what thou wilt”….that is the saying of famous atheist and satanists Alistar Crowley. How did that work out for him? Not to well. His life ended miserably and his life now is in hell. Everything we do has humans has an effect on other people…either good or bad. No man is an island. What do I always say……Criminals don't lack self-esteem…they are over loaded with self esteem. They think so much of themselves that no one else matters but as a means to meet what they want and need. Paul had a much different attitude.

2/2/2025 Ezekiel 22:25-31 Conspiracy Against God Intro: I heard a man the other day say he was against Religion. I am too. So was Jesus! The Bible and Christianity is about a person…Jesus Christ! A Relationship not a religion. Jesus Christ is alive and well on the right hand of the Father. He sent His Spirit to live in us until we are in His presence forever! But to say we hate religion are being totally honest. I don't think they are inferring that they hate God also. They just don't understand how God has revealed Himself to humanity. So they believe in God but they have created a conspiracy against the God of the Bible without even knowing it. They have created their own prophets and preachers. Wokeness, do as thou wilt was spoken by Satanist Aleister Crowley when he said “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.” There is a conspiracy to promote man and demote God. Conspiracy is a plot, ploy, or scheme. McDonalds conspires to get you to buy their hamburgers and fries by their colorful ads with pictures of fries that are larger than a bus. So conspiracies are normal. But there are nefarious conspiracies meant to control or harm people. A secret plan or agreement between people for an unlawful or harmful purpose while keeping their agreement secret from the public. Satan is the master conspirator! He is conspiring to keep them from their creator.

1/26/2025 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 Then Cometh The End Intro: Everything must end. Life comes to an end. Ball games come to an end. Christmas comes to an end. 2024 came to an end. Even God's creation of earth must end….in order to be recreated. The butterfly was once a caterpillar. The caterpillar ended so that the butterfly could begin. I remember a Buggs Bunny cartoon. The cartoon was about an attaché case with a top secret inside. The whole cartoon was about Elmer Fudd and Buggs Bunny each trying to steal the case from each other and find the secret it contained. Finally, after fighting each other they agree to open it together……When they see what is inside they say “this is horrible, awful, the worst thing that could ever happen!” what was inside?….simply the words…..”the End!” Then the credits rolled. That was a brilliant cartoon by the creators of Buggs Bunny! The end is coming of all we know and experience. It can be awful, terrible and horrible…..or it can be unimaginable joy!

1/19/2025 2 Corinthians 2:10-11 Satan's Devices Intro: Satan is very, very intelligent. But he does things the same way. He lies. He kills. He destroys. He deceives. The last one is the most dangerous for humans. He deceived Eve. He makes things so good and pleasant to the eyes and seems to make one wise. But what kind of wisdom is it? The wisdom to do evil and know evil and follow evil.

Genesis 1:26-27 Your Worldview Makes A Difference In The World Intro: There Are two worldviews. Man's and God's. Man's is filled with new age paganism, pantheism. Mother earth and animals and humans are all on the same level. This is insane! Animals don't build anything. If you count insect hives and beaver dams. And that's because God gave them an instinct to survive. By the way…Where does instinct come from? Why are all cats hunters? Why are All dogs basically herders? Why do Bee's pollinate? Why are all horses basically hay burners? Because God made them that way to balance the earth and for their survival. If you believe that animals exist as equals to man….then your going to protect the fish and the owls to the detriment of man. You are not going to manage forests and dead trees and underbrush and let the forests grow chaotic…… and the result? Fires! You are going to let the snow melt from the mountains run out of the reservoirs into the oceans to save insignificant little fish (called a Smelt twice the size of a Sardine) and let people burn up. You want a cause for California fires? California is a desert state. It's dry. They need all the water they can get. Fire is the enemy of a desert. By the way…. did you know that homeless people set 24 fires a day in downtown LA. I'm not saying that caused these recent fires but that's an incredible problem for LA. A pagan worldview causes a godless mindset that allows men to act like animals and animals to take the place of men. A pagan worldview makes people the problem and animals and mother earth the answer!

1/5/2025 Ezekiel 38:2-6 Gog-Magog Update Intro: On the snow day I would like to do something that very few pastors and preacher and Bible teachers do…..speak on Bible prophecy! The Bible is true because it claims to the be the word of God. The only words of God. It claims to be the truth of God. It claims that Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved from the wrath of God because of our sin. That is a big claim. How does the Bible back it up? Bible prophecy. I can give you one prophecy….just one…… of hundreds in the Bible…..that will prove to you the Bible is the word of God. Here it is…..Daniel 9:25Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem (march 5, 444 BC) Ezra unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. 26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: (March 30-April 2, 33 AD Jesus entered Jerusalem as the Messiah and was crucified four days later by others) This was written 538 years before Jesus was born….Nehemiah 2:5-6 Send me to Judah, to the city of my fathers tombs, that I may rebuild it….so it pleased the king to send me…March 5, 444 BC.

We are in the generation of “Don't bother my world” generation. We don't want any interruptions to our little silly lives. But one day they will be interrupted by a visitor that we should have been prepared to meet. But sadly….most will not be ready.

12/22/2024 Revelation 5:6-14 The Amazing Lamb! Intro: He was born a human baby in a manger. He grew up to be a man and died on a cruel cross and was raised on the third day. But OT images of Him are of a lamb. He is called the Lamb of God. Why is the Lamb so important? Why is it so amazing?

12/15/2024 Isaiah 9:6-7 Something Wonderful Is Going To Happen Intro: Christmas is a wonderful time of the year of faith, family and friends. Gift giving and joyous celebrations. We know Christmas is a wonderful time because we celebrate family and the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. But a day is coming that is greater than a million Christmases…….

12/15/2024 Matthew 24:36-46 The Sudden Appearance Of Jesus Christ Intro: No one likes unexpected visitors.

12/8/2024 Matthew 1:21 What Christmas Is Really All About Intro: We have Christmas lights, Santa Claus, reindeer, sleighs, Elves, and Christmas trees. We give gifts to one another. We sing Christmas songs. We have celebrations. And at the center of it all is Jesus! Or He should be…..but it is so commercialized. YOU can't blame businesses. This is their biggest time of the year. Nearly one hundred percent of people will shop between thanksgiving and Christmas for gifts for someone. That is a big part of a companies business. And not only Business but busy-ness. We are bombarded with shopping and plays, and getting our decoration up, and going to Christmas parties, and all the other Christmas stuff that we become stressed more during this time than any other part of the year. But what is Christmas all about? I'm glad you asked….

12/01/2024 John 7:12-18 Who Is The Source Of Truth Intro: Jesus is at the feast of booths. He was a good Jew who observes all that a good Jew would. Feast Of Tabernacles or Feast of Booths. It is held on the 15th day of the seventh month or seventh full moon of the year. September, October in our Calendar. It lasts for seven plus an eighth day. 10/17/2024--10/7/2025---Leviticus 23:34, 42-43 This feast represents the great tabernacle to come, when men will dwell with God in heaven for eternity. Interesting that Jesus shows up at this feast about eternity and taught that His source of truth was from the eternal God of the Jews. What is more important than knowing the source of truth?
