America Just What Do You Know About The Bible?

Continued Volume VI: The Bible is the inspired word of God. It has been preserved for thousands of years. The Bible reveals the real purpose of life. There is so much knowledge in this book that is missing from our modern world. So many people in our high tech world know very little about the Bible. This book could change millions of lives if applied. Many high officials have attempted to destroy the scriptures and even alter its words. Legislation in our government have made it illegal in the US to display the 10 commandments in public buildings. Students in many schools are forbidden to pray in school. Our silver coins which say “In God We Trust” may also be banned. Church attendance has fallen dramatically. Folks if only people would open up their eyes and see what is happening to our country. The Bible answers all life’s big questions. Some of the Bible’s most important prophecies dealing with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob descendants the 12 tribes make up the Jewish Race or the chosen people. Understanding the true identity of the Jewish Nation is not only a key for knowing Bible prophecy but this knowledge is also essential for God’s Church which must fulfill the commission that Jesus gave. Prophecy is mentioned all through the Old Testament of the Bible. The book of Daniel gives precise dates, locations and names that can be verified. The book of Daniel was widely accepted in the Hebrew Bible. Prophecies are coming alive today. Many who claim to believe in Jesus Christ dismiss ideas about the end of the age soon coming as doomsday talk. Folks our world is changing fast and moving toward the end. Jesus spoke freely and in detail about specific events that would signal the end of this age we live in. When Jesus’ disciples asked him what will be the sign of your coming and the end of this age? Jesus told them to watch for a time when they would see widespread religious confusion and deception, and increasing reports of violence, wars, strife, famines, disease, epidemics and natural disasters. Folks these are the very headlines plaguing our news today. Christ told them this would be just the beginning of sorrows. Jesus also told them to remain alert and watch nations entering their final hour. Folks Jesus is in Heaven at our father’s side just waiting to come back to earth. I think this time is very close but no one knows, not even the angels of Heaven. Be ready folks for it will happen so fast as the Bible tells us the twinkling of the eye. Thank you.

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, Forever and ever. Amen.

“THE DREAM”

Peace River Shopper

Somehow my Uncle seems to be really watching this old man, so when he tells me to go ask my mom, I just ask him, where is she? He points over to the shoe section and says to me, she is over there watching this guy’s wife. Ok, by now I think to myself that this must be a dream, but it sure would be nice to see my mom. As I am walking over to the shoe department, someone taps me on the shoulder and says, hey son. It’s my dad. He looked great. I mean, as if he was only in his 50’s. Happy as he could be. He looks at me and asks if I know where my mom is? I say sure, she is over in the shoe section. He turns and starts walking toward the shoe section. I try to stop him so I can give him a hug but he is too fast. I am following him, but I can’t believe that it is my dad. He looks so good, so happy. My dad has been gone a long time and I miss him very much, so I am so happy to see him again and I begin to start crying. Then he turns to me and says, son I am glad to see you again too, this is just a dream so enjoy it for as long as you can and then he gives me a big hug. I hold him as long as he will let me and then we turn and start to where my Uncle said my mom was. I am so happy right now. I begin to think how it is going to be great to see my mom and dad together. I get so excited I start running. My dad takes off with me, so now we are both running down the aisle in the shoe section looking for my mom. I start yelling for mom. Mom, I yell. Then again. Finally she answers me. I’m over here, she says. As my dad and I turn the corner, there she is. More beautiful than I remembered. She looked so young and so happy. I ran right up to her and started hugging her and touching her arms to make sure she was real. Dad just starts asking her where is the woman she is supposed to be watching. She points to this very large well-dressed woman that is holding up a pair of brightly colored flip flops. Dad tells mom that he will take over for now and start watching her. Mom turns to me and we hug and hug and hug. What a time I am having. No thoughts of this being a dream, I am just enjoying my parents being with me. Mom tells me that her and dad are now private investigators for Home Depot. She tells me how happy they are and are feeling great. I know they are looking great and I just can’t believe what I’m hearing or seeing, but I’m so happy that I don’t really worry about it. After a few minutes, I start thinking about my baby sister who had passed away. Dad had walked off by now, following the lady with the flip flops. I ask mom where my sister was. She looks at me and says, she is working as a cashier up front and will check these people out that we are following if we miss them. I just look at mom. I am really puzzled now because she has long been gone also. I don’t say anything to mom, I just start running up to the front of the store trying to get a look at my baby sister. As I am coming up to the cashiers, I can hear her voice and I start crying all over again. What is going on I keep thinking. Just then my dad grabs my arm. Son, you have got to calm down and just enjoy this dream. But dad, I say, it all feels so real. He gives me a big hug, turns toward the shoe section and jumps into the air. As he goes through the ceiling, I can see my uncle, my mother and my sister waving at me as they follow him out. I remember standing there just looking up. I could see my sister clear now and she looked young and beautiful. All I could do was wave at them and cry. Just then I feel my wife shaking me and saying what is wrong honey? You must be having a nightmare. You were screaming and crying so bad I had to wake you up… The End
