1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers
together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are
God's
building.
10 According to the grace of God which is given
unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid
the foundation, and another buildeth thereon.
But let every man take heed how he buildeth
thereupon.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that
is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation
gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay,
stubble;
13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for
the day shall declare it, because it shall be
revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every
man's work of what sort it is.

James 1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is
like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he
beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth
what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect
law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful
hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his
deed. 26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth
not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is
vain.

Why Does All This Evil Happen to the
Christian Nations
In the book of Hosea chapters 2, 4, 7, 8. 9 gives a pretty good glance at the
sad state of His people in this day. God says, The
12 tribes of Israel, Christian Nations
has slideth back as a backslider,
they don't study to understand God's Word;
they are half-baked; strangers have taken over
their power, and they are no longer young and don't even realize it.
17 And I will
set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your
enemies: they
that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee
when none pursueth you.
-
Revelation 18:3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of
the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth
have
committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth
are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
-
All nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath
of her fornication = Jezebel
-
Her = Jezebel = Jezebel wanted kill all Christians = take your land
and everything you have =
Rev 17
-
The merchants,
your leaders, that build the city today,
they are evil leaders,
Kenites,
Satan's church and
Jezebel Church
-
Daniel 11:6 And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the
king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make
an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither
shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that
brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in
these times.
-
Last days = South, Christians nations = North, Satan's one world
order starts to come about
-
Most of the
leaders make an agreement with Satan's one
world order leaders, they sell you out..

18 And if ye will
not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I
will punish you seven times more for your sins.
19 And I
will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron,
and your earth as brass:
20 And your
strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield
her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
-
Your government is trying to shut down all farms = they want you to
eat bugs = we know they're not going eat bugs
21 And if ye walk contrary unto me,
and will not hearken unto me; I
will bring seven times more plagues upon you according
to your sins.
22 I will also send wild
beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and
destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your highways
shall be desolate.
-
You can have peace or your highways
shall be desolate
-
Turn the news on...how many cattle farms have burned up or they have
killed the cattle
23 And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk
contrary unto me;
24 Then will I also walk
contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven
times for your sins.
25 And I will bring a
sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when
ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence
among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand
of the enemy.
-
I will bring a sword upon you = God's Word

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself
approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.
Romans 11:8 According as it is
written, God hath given them
the spirit of slumber,
eyes that they should
not see,
and ears that they should not hear; unto this day.
-
Jeremiah 23:1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep
of my pasture! saith the LORD.
-
Woe to
Pastors that don't teach truth. It does not matter what you put in front
of your name, if you mislead God's children God's going to correct you.
-
Jeremiah 2:8 The priests said not, Where is
the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me
not: the pastors also transgressed against me,
and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and
walked
after things that do not profit.
-
Good studying 2 Timothy 4
Jeremiah 23:2 Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that
feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and
have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your
doings, saith the LORD.
3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither
I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they
shall be fruitful and increase.
Look around all this has come to pass.
26 And when I have broken the staff of
your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one
oven, and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight:
and ye shall eat, and not
be satisfied.

Revelation 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard
the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a
black horse; and he that sat on him had a
pair of balances in his
hand.
-
Third
Seal, Brings famine...false balances .. false teaching...
inflation. hardships
-
4th trump 1/3 of the
Christians are spiritually dead to GOD'S WORD. (Revelation 7 and 8)
-
1/3 of them was darkened, means no truth because of the false
pastors, No truth; no light
-
Revelation 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four
beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures
of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the
wine.
-
There's going to be
inflation.. famine.. hardship
-
A penny,
as is mentioned here, is a denarius (1220).
-
At this
time, it's was written, a day's wage was one penny.
-
Normally,
one could buy eight loaves with a day's wage
-
But John
describes a time of inflation when it required the entire day's wage
to buy just one loaf.
-
This
indicates that there will be hardships to face
27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary
unto me;
28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and
I, even I, will chastise you seven times for
your sins.
29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the
flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
30 And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and
cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall
abhor you.
31 And I will make your cities waste, and bring your
sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your
sweet odours.
-
I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto
desolation = already happened
-
Look at the protesters destroying our nation as long as I can
remember... one after another
32 And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which
dwell therein shall be astonished at it.
33 And I will scatter
you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your
land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.
-
I will scatter you among the heathen
-
Ezekiel 5:12 A third part
of thee shall die with the pestilence, and with famine
shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and a third
part shall fall by the sword round about thee;
and I will scatter a third part into all the
winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.
34 Then shall the land enjoy her Sabbaths,
as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your
enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her
Sabbaths.
35 As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because
it did not rest in your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
36 And
upon them that are left alive of you I will send a faintness into their
hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf
shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they
shall fall when none pursueth.

Already happened =
No rest or peace = look what's coming across the border
-
Judges 6:1 And
the children of Israel did evil in
the sight of the Lord: and the Lord delivered them into the hand of
Midian seven
years.
-
The children of Israel are the 12 tribes of
Israel.
-
The Christians nations today,
they did evil in the sight of the Lord
-
Midianites are the Arabians Nations
37 And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when
none pursueth: and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
-
Already happened =
No power over your enemies
-
Your government keeps letting these people come in, we can't stop
it... why have government...their for the other nations. Look at the
homeless..no help for the homeless, but they're helping their people
38 And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the
land of your enemies shall eat you up.
39 And they that
are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies'
lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away
with them.
40 If they shall confess their
iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with
their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have
walked contrary unto me;
41 And that I also have walked contrary
unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then
their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the
punishment of their iniquity:
-
Already has happened = look at all the people that has come across
the border
42 Then will I remember My covenant with Jacob, and also
My covenant
with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I
will remember the land.
-
This happens has not happen = this happens at the 4th vial when the two
witnesses comes = God gathers
His very elect = take down Satan's one world order
-
Judges 6-8 type of the last days
-
Judges 6:6 And Israel was
greatly impoverished because of the Midianites; and the children of
Israel cried unto the Lord.
7 And it came to
pass, when the children of Israel cried unto the Lord
because of the Midianites, This is
where we are now in God's word. 8 That the
Lord sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, which said unto
them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I brought you up from
Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;
The Lord going sent a prophet to help the Christian Nations, and
God's very elect. The two witnesses
Could that be Elijah and Moses? Judges 6:9
And I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the
hand of all that oppressed you, and drave them out from before you,
and gave you their land; 10 And I said unto
you, I am the Lord your God; fear not the gods of the Amorites, in
whose land ye dwell: but ye have not obeyed my voice.
11 And there came an angel of the Lord, and sat
under an oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the
Abi-ezrite: and his son Gideon threshed wheat by
the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites.
12 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and
said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valour.
13 And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if the Lord be with
us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his
miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the Lord
bring us up from Egypt? but now the Lord hath forsaken us, and
delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.
Rev 16:8 = 4th vial = The two witnesses are here teaching God's
word. Gathering the very elect. Zech 4 Gideon
means cutter down Israel did evil in the
sight of the Lord Bible study
two witnesses Rev 11
and
Zech 4
43 The land also shall be left of them,
and shall enjoy her Sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them: and
they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity: because, even
because they despised my judgments, and because their soul abhorred my
statutes.
-
Repent = means Willing to change and do what's right = God's
laws, judgments
44 And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I
will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them
utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I am the Lord their
God.
45 But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their
ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of
the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the Lord.
46 These
are the statutes and judgments and laws, which the
Lord made between him and the children of Israel
in mount Sinai by
the hand of Moses.
John 10:7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
I am the door of the sheep.
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not
hear them.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
