Muslims Use National Cathedral to Pray to Allah

Yesterday, a liberal commented to me how he doesn't think America has reached the point where we are sticking a finger in God's eye...I disagreed and made a short list for him which included millions of abortions, rampant idolatry, gay marriage legal in 37 states, 1 in 3 Americans has an STD, drug use, etc....

He replied to my list (which I backed up with scripture) with this;

Dennis, boy, that is certainly a list of all the things wrong with America and Americans! Thanks for the sermon.
Maybe ISIS and the Muslim nations are right, America is the Great Satan and should be destroyed. There is sure a lot of evidence that it should.

So clearly he couldn't comment on the actual list I sent (because they were actual facts) so instead responded with sarcasm...thanking me for the "sermon" and then jumping into hyperbole about ISIS being right.

Certainly we are in the Days of Noah...when even church goers have NO IDEA and NO BELIEF that God will ever judge the nations and certainly will never judge the inhabitants of earth...because in their mind God loves everyone no matter what they have done and no matter what they believe. Their mantra is, "If there is a heaven then everyone goes there because my god loves everyone!"

Today we find another incident to add to the list which proves we ARE sticking a finger in God's eye. WE ALLOWED MUSLIMS TO USE THE NATIONAL CATHEDRAL TO PRAY TO ALLAH!!!

Reverend Franklin Graham, son of world renowned evangelist Billy Graham, said the Muslim prayer service on Friday at the Washington National Cathedral, an Episcopal church established under a charter granted by Congress more than 100 years ago, is “sad to see”  because the church should only open its door for  worship of “the One True God of the Bible.”

In a Facebook post on Thursday, Nov. 13, Rev. Franklin Graham, who heads the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, said, “Tomorrow, the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. -- one of the most prominent Episcopal churches in America -- will host a Muslim prayer service to Allah.”

“It’s sad to see a church open its doors to the worship of anything other than the One True God of the Bible who sent His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to earth to save us from our sins,” said Graham.  “Jesus was clear when He said, ‘I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me’ (John 14:6).”

Muslim prayer carpets will be laid out inside the cathedral facing east, towards Mecca,  for the prayer service. They will also be “to the side of the sanctuary,” reported Voice of America, so that worshippers will not see the crosses or Christian icons, because “Muslims are not supposed to pray in view of sacred symbols alien to their faith.”

According to Pew Research, Muslims represent about 0.6% of the U.S. adult population.

Friends, God didn't like it when the Israelites worshiped Baal, Ashteroth, Mammon and a whole host of other false gods.  All false gods have demonic roots.  God is never changing.  How do you suppose it looks in the spiritual realm as the Watchers look down and see Allah being praised in a church built and dedicated to Jesus Christ...and built by a nation that understood that Jesus Christ was through whom all blessings flow?

Talk about sticking a finger in God's eye....

It's staggering to see how far and how fast we are falling from morality and discernment.

Lord have mercy.

Obama's Coming Executive Orders

As we all know, the Republicans took the Senate and the House and now have the largest majority in the House since Harry Truman days.  If you think Obama couldn't get things done because of gridlock these last few years....he really has be be upset now.

So what's he gonna do?  He's going to start acting like a king and issue executive orders.  The House and Senate leaders are already warning him that if he starts behaving like a king, you may as well wave a red flag in front of a bull, because you are going to seriously exasperate the lawmakers.

The first item on Obama's agenda is immigration reform.  He wants to make legal citizens out of the Latinos who snuck into the country illegally but managed to have a baby while they were here.  By US law, the baby automatically becomes a US citizen....and now he wants to reward the law breaking parents by granting them legal status.

In reality, he's just trying to buy millions of Latino votes for the Democrats.

Please watch this YouTube video that shows what Obama SAID earlier in his career and compares it to what he is saying now.

John Kerry Has Jerusalem Plan

Another day...another headline that includes the word JERUSALEM.

Certainly this is one more sign of the lateness of the day when the whole world just can't figure out Jerusalem...God's holy city.

I had already posted this photo a few months ago, but thought it might be fun to see again since John Kerry is back at it!

Kerry warns Jerusalem violence can spiral out of control, announces plan to restore calm

Violence on the Temple Mount could quickly spiral out of control warned US Secretary of State John Kerry, as the United States, Jordan and Israel announced they had a plan in place to restore calm. 

“We are working to smother the sparks of immediate tension so that they don’t become a fire that is absolutely out of control,” Kerry said on Thursday after a  trilateral meeting in Amman with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Jordan's King Abdulllah.

After the meeting, Kerry explained that Israel and Jordan had agreed on a mechanism to end the violence in Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, known to Muslims as Al Haram Al Sharif.

He was short on details, except to say that it would ensure that the status quo would be maintained at the holy site.

Such calm is the first ingredient necessary before direct or regional Israeli-Palestinian peace talks can commence, Kerry said.

Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh told reporters that, “the tension in Jerusalem, as you have seen in the last few days, has sparked tension not just in Jerusalem and around Jerusalem, but elsewhere in the West Bank. And this is something that concerns us all,”

“We’ve always warned that Jerusalem is a redline,” he added.

Hey John Kerry!!  Did you know that long ago God declared Jerusalem a red line too?  Yep!  One day He will gather all the nations and judge them for how they treated and scattered His people and divided up His land.

Joel 3
“In those days and at that time,
    when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 I will gather all nations
    and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
There I will put them on trial
    for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel,
because they scattered my people among the nations
    and divided up my land.

Final Destruction of U.S. Dollar

In our heart of hearts most of us know that it's not possible to just create wealth simply by printing paper bills with $1, $5, $10, $20 and $100 stamped on the paper.  If it was that simple then there would be no poverty anywhere in the world!  The world's governments could just print paper money and hand everyone a few million dollars and poverty would be solved overnight!

So following the deep recession of 2008-2009, why do we believe that America's Federal Reserve and the world's other other central banks have been successful doing it THIS TIME?

"Fool me once, shame on you!...Fool me twice, shame on me!"

Of course there are some very smart people out there called 'experts' who are sounding the alarm that these last rounds of massive, money printing have sewn the seeds of destruction....it's only a matter of time.

Free-marketeers have been derided by Keynesians and other monetarists for predictions of impending doom due to the policies of the Federal Reserve. But if what one of the most erudite and outspoken leaders of the free-market chorus, Jim Grant, says is true, it might be he and his fellow capitalists who get the last (terrifying) laugh.

In an interview with Grant, eminent financial journalist and author of the new book ”The Forgotten Depression: 1921: The Crash That Cured Itself,” Grant explained why the prognostications of those concerned about the collapse of the dollar have to date proven wrong, but he still expects to see the “final destruction or near destruction” of currencies throughout the world.

Nevertheless, for Grant, quantitative easing in and of itself has sown the seeds of the destruction of the dollar and other currencies. Grant stated [during a portion of our discussion that you can find below beginning around 26:46]:

So all of this is…in the books as precedent, and the monetarists and Keynesians are rather preening about the evident success of these interventions, and we can be sure I think that they will not forebear to do more still next time.

There will come a time I think where there will be so much as to frighten even the complacent people on Wall Street, and there will finally be this inflation that has been so long in coming.

But I do believe the end of all this is the final destruction or near destruction of these currencies.

Here;  http://www.theblaze.com/blog/2014/11/12/why-a-leading-financial-analyst-believes-we-will-see-the-final-destruction-of-the-dollar/

What would it mean to many Americans if they woke up one day and the thousands of dollars they had squirreled away in savings failed to buy a pound of beef, a dozen eggs and a loaf of bread?

"But Dennis, that could NEVER happen here!  This is America!  The most blessed, most innovative, most technologically savvy, most God-fearing nation on earth!"

Yep!  And that's exactly what other great nations have said throughout history...right before their currencies collapsed.

Make no mistake about it...one day it WILL HAPPEN.  Currencies backed by faith alone (fiat currencies) ALWAYS FAIL.  Not sometimes fail but ALWAYS FAIL!

Notice as well that this expert isn't saying the only the US Dollar will fail but that CURRENCIES (plural) will fail.

This should surprise no one who reads their Bible.  The Bible clearly tells us that one day the Antichrist will put together a global financial system that will require a specific mark taken on the body in order for anyone to buy or sell into the system.  Of course it makes commons sense that if a NEW SYSTEM is to be enacted....then the old one needs to get out of the way.

"So Dennis!  That's so scary!!  What should we do???"

First off, "fear not.  All these things MUST HAPPEN," says Jesus.

Secondly, "Lay up your treasures in heaven where moth and rust will not destroy."

Thirdly, let's all reconcile ourselves IN ADVANCE so that IF WE SEE these days come we will not be surprised and we can continue to be salt and light and continue to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ up to the very day the Master returns for us.

Matthew 24
42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. 47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 48 But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ 49 and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. 50 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. 51 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Wow!!  If Jesus is the Master...is He really going to show up one day and cut certain people to pieces and assign them a place where these is weeping and gnashing of teeth?

That's what Jesus said!  It's up to you to decide whether you believe Him...or not?


Swarm of Earthquakes "Intensifying"

We seldom do posts on earthquakes anymore because there are so many that are happening in diverse places that I believe most of my reader's eyes are open and watching for this particular sign.

Matthew 24
6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

However, this headline today on Google peaked our attention so decided to share it.

Swarm of earthquakes in Nevada desert is intensifying

A swarm of hundreds of earthquakes that has been striking a corner of the Nevada desert near the Oregon border for months has intensified in recent days, prompting new warnings from seismologists.   

About 750 earthquakes, mostly magnitude 2.0 to 3.0, have struck the area about 50 miles southeast of Lakeview, Ore., since the swarm started in July, said Ian Madin, chief scientist for Oregon's Department of Geology and Mineral Industries. 

The temblors have been growing steadily stronger with time. Six earthquakes of magnitude 4.0 or greater have struck the area since Tuesday and about 40 have struck in the last 24 hours, Madin said. 

"This week it has just gone crazy," Madin said.

The swarm is beneath an uninhabited part of the Nevada desert near the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge, but officials are telling the public, especially the almost 2,300 residents of Lakeview, to develop earthquake plans if they haven't already.

"If you are not ready for an earthquake, now is an awfully good time to get ready for an earthquake," said Alison Ryan, a spokeswoman for the department.

Scientists believe groundwater is slowly percolating along the faults and building up pressure, making movement on the faults much easier, said John Vidale, director of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network at the University of Washington. 

"It doesn't necessarily mean anything big is coming, but it does raise the risk there will be a bigger quake in the future," he said. "Ninety-nine percent of the time nothing too dramatic happens, but every now and then there is a good pop and everyone asks why we didn't predict it."

Here;  http://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-nn-swarm-earthquakes-oregon-nevada-20141107-htmlstory.html

During The Tribulation there will be some massive earthquakes.  When Christ returns there will be a super-massive earthquake.  I believe all the quakes rattling the world are just a warm-up and a foreshadowing of how close we are to The Great Tribulation.

As the Day of the Lord approaches we can expect the frequency and intensity of quakes to increase....kind of like birth pangs.

Joseph Smith Had 40 Wives

I'm guessing that most of my readers will put Mormonism into the category of "cult".


Why?

Because ONE GUY named Joseph Smith claimed to have a conversation with an angel named Maroni and claims he was told all sorts of "new things"...about golden tablets, about Jews being American Indians, about Jesus and Lucifer being brothers, about black people being cursed for following Lucifer...and the list goes on and on.  

Mind you now, this all happened EIGHTEEN HUNDRED YEARS after Jesus had ascended into heaven and the Bible had already given us everything we need for salvation through Christ....but Joseph Smith was a story teller and he must have been a convincing one.

Also remember that the Bible tells us that Satan can appear to us as an angel of light.  The Bible goes on to say that even if an angel of light were to come and tell us some new information that if it contradicts the Gospel then rebuke the angel and know that it is a messenger from Satan....because God would never send an angel or spirit to contradict what He has already said.

Hmmm....it sounds to me like Mormonism is made up of lies...and Jesus clearly told us who the Father of Lies is;  Satan.

Today we are finding out that for 200 years Mormons claimed that Joseph was married to only one woman...but in reality he was married to 40 women...one of which was only 14.

(Reuters) - The Mormon church has admitted that founder Joseph Smith married about 40 women including a 14-year-old and others who were already the wives of his followers, having maintained for nearly 200 years that he was monogamous.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has tried to gloss over aspects of its history, including the polygamy practiced by Smith and Brigham Young, who helped found Salt Lake City, Utah, the headquarters of the Mormon church.

"Joseph married many additional wives and authorized other Latter-day Saints to practice plural marriage," a church essay entitled "Plural Marriage in Kirtland and Nauvoo" said, noting that "careful estimates put the number between 30 and 40".

The church has been widely criticized for its treatment of women, black people, who it barred from the higher priesthood until 1978, and gays, who were banned from its temples if they were sexually active.

Smith's wives were mostly between the ages of 20 and 40, but Helen Mar Kimball, the daughter of close friends, was "sealed" to him several months before she turned 15.

"Plural marriage was difficult for all involved. For Joseph Smith's wife Emma, it was an excruciating ordeal," the essay, part of a collection issued over the past year, said.

The church, founded in 1830, banned polygamy in 1890 when the U.S. government threatened to deny Utah statehood.


So this revelation begs a bigger question....if the Mormon church has been lying about it's founding father for 200 years...WHAT ELSE could they be lying about?  Have there EVER actually been golden tablets that Maroni gave Joseph....or is that just a 200 year old lie too?

Ummm....we already know it's a lie.  But what will actual Mormons make out of all this nonsense.

"But Dennis, Christianity is a cult too!...following blindly after some man named Jesus who claimed to be God!  That's no different than Mormons following blindly after Joseph Smith!"

Wrong!!

Jesus' words, miracles, death and resurrection were confirmed by thousands of witnesses.  Jesus also fulfilled dozens of prophesies written centuries before he arrived....thereby PROVING that Jesus was exactly who He said He was...the Savior of mankind and one part of the trinity.

Joseph was only ONE GUY sitting in the woods....confirmed my no one else and fulfilled NOTHING ever written in advance.

Big difference.

Also please remember that the Mormon Jesus IS NOT the Jesus of the Bible.  They may share the same name but they aren't the same person....so by that definition, Mormons are not followers of Jesus the Christ.

If my plumber is named Jesus and I believe in him....that's not going to save me from my sins.

In the same way, believing in the Mormon Jesus or the Muslim Jesus, (who are false Christs)...is not going to save them from their sins either.

"Dennis!...You are SO INTOLERANT!!"

Yep.  So was the REAL, ONE AND ONLY, Jesus.

2 Corinthians 11
12 And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about. 13 For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15 It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.

Hmmm....can't help but wonder if Satan was Maroni....the angel who came to Joseph Smith?

Or did Joseph simply make the whole thing up because he wanted to have celestial sex with 40 different women and needed a good reason to do it?

ObamaCare Lack of Transparency

Remember when Obama said he was going to be the most transparent President to ever take the office?  He was going to have a love affair with all the journalists...because 99% of them supported him!  What could be a happier time!  The first black President, full of charm, supported by all the main stream media outlets!  They were going to HOPE AND CHANGE the world!!  Next stop...President of the World!!

Yeah...right.

We have become less interested in politics these last 6 years...mainly because we have come to realize that a Democrat or Republican is not going to fix what ails America now.  Nope!  We have a serious spiritual problem.  A famine of the Word of God has taken over the land and we are now suffering from a moral collapse.

Today, a reader sent me this article about how one of the main architects of ObamaCare admitted that they shoved the thing through by taking advantage of a LACK OF TRANSPARENCY.

In a newly surfaced video, one of Obamacare’s architects admits a “lack of transparency” helped the Obama administration and congressional Democrats pass the Affordable Care Act. The conservative group American Commitment posted Jonathan Gruber’s remarks, reportedly from an Oct. 17, 2013, event, on YouTube.

“Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage,” says the MIT economist who helped write Obamacare. “And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical for the thing to pass.”

Here;  http://dailysignal.com/2014/11/09/caught-camera-obamacare-architect-admits-deceiving-americans-pass-law/

Seriously!!!  It seems with every passing day there is another lie, another half truth, another cover-up, another golf game, another excuse!  No wonder the people of America are groaning!

Proverbs 29:2
When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.

Friends, please don't forget...a nation will ultimately elect the leaders that they deserve...and we elected him...TWICE!!

Just remember, he only has two years left.  Let's see how much more damage he can do...and then soon it will be time for, "Hilary!...Hilary!....Hilary!!"  (insert big smiley face)

Near Misses With Russia

Most of you know that we watch Russia because many prophecy watchers believe they are the ancient land of Magog which Ezekiel saw in his end-days vision.

We also know that Putin has been bristling around the world showing everyone that he isn't afraid to do what he believes are in Mother Russia's best interest.

We blogged last week about how Norway, Sweden, USA and NATO have all had to scramble jets to intercept Russian bombers and fighters that appear to be testing old Cold-War routes.

A SPYPLANE that nearly rammed a civilian airliner. A kidnapped intelligence agent. Combat jets playing chicken. The Cold War is back — and it’s getting icy.

The last leader of the fallen Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, at the weekend warned that the world was on the “brink of a new Cold War”.

He was wrong. According to a new report, it’s already here.

The crisis in Ukraine has escalated tensions between Russia and the West to their highest level since the end of the Cold War and increased Russian air activity over Europe has rattled the nerves of NATO alliance members.

More than 40 East-West military “incidents” have been recorded during the past eight months. They have been detailed in Dangerous Brinkmanship: Close Military Encounters Between Russia and the West in 2014, a report by London think-tank the European Leadership Network.

These deliberate provocations “form a highly disturbing picture of violations of national airspace, emergency scrambles, narrowly avoided midair collisions, close encounters at sea, simulated attack runs and other dangerous actions happening on a regular basis over a very wide geographical area,” the report says.

Almost all of the incidents are linked to air and naval war games in different parts of the world including the Pacific. NATO says it has intercepted more than 100 Russian military aircraft so far this year — three times more than last year.

But some were more hair-raising than others.

The incident involving a Scandinavian airliner was classified as “high risk”, along with two others: the alleged abduction of an Estonian security service operative by Russian agents from an Estonian border post on September 5 and the reports of “foreign underwater activity” off the Swedish coast last month.
The study also counted 11 “serious incidents with escalation risk” including four cases of “harassment” of US and Swedish planes in international airspace by armed Russian fighter jets.

Here;  http://www.news.com.au/world/new-report-reveals-a-growing-list-of-provocative-clashes-between-russia-nato/story-fndir2ev-1227119063461

The West has been hammering Russia with sanctions and rules and the Russian Ruble has been suffering and fallen by 30% in a short period of time.  So could this pressure make Putin get back in line and become a good global neighbor....or could it make him desperate and make him take desperate measures?

Ezekiel 38

14 “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In that day, when my people Israel are living in safety, will you not take notice of it? 15 You will come from your place in the far north, you and many nations with you, all of them riding on horses, a great horde, a mighty army. 16 You will advance against my people Israel like a cloud that covers the land. In days to come, Gog, I will bring you against my land, so that the nations may know me when I am proved holy through you before their eyes.

We have no idea if Putin could end up being Gog of Magog....but if he isn't, he certainly is "Gog-esque"
