"THE EU REFERENDUM - A CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE" BY DAVID EVANS WHO IS A PASTOR FROM CARDIFF.
THE EU REFERENDUM – a Christian perspective By David Evans.
INTRODUCTION Many of us are wondering which way to vote in the forthcoming referendum on 23 June. Should we remain in the European Union (EU) or leave it in the so-called Brexit? The subject merits our attention. This article is an attempt at examining the issues from a Christian world view. THE FACTS? We are asked to consider matters that involve major corner-stones of our nation state. These include choice in the allocation of finances; foreign investment, trade deals, employment and the control of legislative processes (EU law vs. UK law) as well as immigration control and the defence of our country. The discussion that is on-going comprises claim and counter-claim for which supporting facts often appear scant. Depending on who is telling the story, we get a particular ‘spin’ on the various issues. It reminds me of an old adage from Mark Twain: ‘There are lies, damned lies and statistics.’ If we are not able to get at the true facts our decision will be based on which protagonist’s delivery we dislike the least. THE CHRISTIAN VIEW? Our task is to find a Christian standpoint amidst this cacophony.
I have just read the Evangelical Alliance’s position (or lack of position) statement. They say the following: ‘…the Alliance takes no position on whether the UK should leave or remain. Our position is only that Christians should engage fully in the debate and vote in the referendum – because the voice of evangelicals matters.’ They follow this objective with a series of pointers for us to consider but in reality we are left with little that is not available to the informed voter and subject to the limitations I have described above. The question remains: is there something that the Christian should be considering that would inform our conscience? My examination focuses on the formation of the EU and its governance and values leading to an examination of some of the issues that are being debated from a Christian perspective.

"AS TO THE TIMES AND THE SEASONS - PART ONE" BY GENE LAWLEY FROM "RAPTURE READY"!!
Featured Article: As to the Times and Seasons - Part 1 - By Gene Lawley - http://raptureready.com/featured/lawley/lawley113.html
Those who who divided the Scriptures into chapters and verses did a great service to help us locate a desired statement of truth much more quickly. However, it sometimes presents a problem of segregating parts of a continuing presentation of a topic, with a chapter break. Minds tend to also make a break in the continuity of the topic, as if a new subject is being introduced.
A case in point is the break between chapters four and five of 1 Thessalonians. If one reads this presentation of the Rapture description without regard to the chapter break, Paul gives us an idea and an answer for those silent questions we inwardly ask, of "when" and "how" that event at the end of chapter four might happen.

"GOD'S JUDGEMENT - AMERICA DESERVED BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA" BY GERI UNGUREAN FROM "RAPTURE READY"!!
God's Judgment: America Deserved Barack Hussein Obama - By Geri Ungurean -http://raptureready.com/soap2/ungurean96.html
Through the years, I have written many pieces on the lawlessness and corrupt actions of Barack Hussein Obama. I must admit that many of these articles, although entirely factual, were written out of heightened emotion and anger. As a patriot and one who loves this once great nation, I have come to see that BHO was given to America by God Himself. He was not placed in his position as a reward - but as condemnation against America for her GREAT sins.
From Onenewsnow.com
Obama 'a judgment of God' on America, says Land
A well-known Southern Baptist leader minces no words when assessing the impression President Obama delivers when he tries to convince other countries they need to expand "gay rights."
"During his visit to Kenya last month, President Barack Obama pressed leaders to accept the homosexual lifestyle and same-sex "marriage." In response, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta called gay rights a "non-issue" for his country:
"It's very difficult for us to be able to impose on people that which they themselves do not accept. This is why I repeatedly say that for Kenyans today, the issue of gay rights is really a non-issue. We want to focus on other areas that are day-to-day living for our people.
"Maybe once, like you have, [we have] overcome some of these challenges, we can begin to look at new ones. But as of now, the fact remains that this issue is not really an issue that is on the foremost mind of Kenyans. And that is a fact."

"LOOKING FOR THE BLESSED HOPE" PARTS 1 & 2 BY THE INSPIRATIONAL DR JOHN McTERNAN!!
Looking for The Blessed Hope - Parts 1 & 2 - By John McTernan -http://www.defendproclaimthefaith.org
(The Coming of the Lord Jesus For His Church)
John 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. (3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
The first mention of the Lord's Second Coming is found in John 14. This caught His disciples by surprise as He just told them He was going away. He assured them of His return, or as it is now known as His Second Coming. Since the Lord rose from the dead, His coming for the church and believers being with Him for eternity has been the hope of the believers:
The hope of the Lord's return is not just mere hope, but the Bible calls it the Blessed Hope. It is a special hope that energizes believers and helps them through this life. Living without the Blessed Hope, a believer can grow cold and worldly. Living with the Blessed Hope keeps believers focused on the Lord and spiritually vibrant:
Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

"LIVING IN THE TIME OF GOD'S JUDGEMENT" BY BILL PERKINS FROM "COMPASS INTERNATIONAL"!!
Living in The Time of God's Judgment - Bill Perkins -www.compass.org
"There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven." Eccl. 3:1
In the not-too-distant future the world will change suddenly and dramatically.
At the end of each of God's specific time periods on earth, referred to as "dispensations," God judges the earth for failure to obey God's commands. There's a penalty to pay and no one on earth gets out of God's judgment.
Examples of God's worldwide judgment in the first three dispensations-
1) In the first Dispensation of Innocence, God's command was very simple for Adam and Eve: "Don't eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil."
But they disobeyed, ate the fruit, and the result was that death entered the earth. God judged the earth by allowing every human to be infected with sin, separating them from a righteous God.
2) In the second Dispensation of Conscience,
God's command was to be moral, which included the command to marry one man to one woman. That command was broken and a devastating worldwide flood wiped out everyone but those on Noah's Ark.
3) In the third Dispensation of Government,
God said fill the earth. But instead of following God's command, the people of earth stayed in one place and built the Tower of Babel. So God judged the earth by mixing the languages.
Each time a dispensation ended, the whole earth was affected. The people alive at the time of those dispensation-ending judgments were affected whether they knew about God's commands or not. God never changed, but He changed how He dealt with humans on the earth.
The Flood of Noah was God's worldwide judgment.
I can't imagine what it would have been like to be alive at the time of Noah when God shut the door of the Ark and the waters burst forth from below and flooded the earth.
The people of that day were going about their daily lives, ignoring God's warnings and had no clue what was dead ahead.
One minute things were normal. The next minute the foundations of the world were shaken. People certainly weren't standing around watching the water rise, wondering what to do. Rather, in an instant, the earth was moving under their feet, buildings were collapsing, the wind was howling and people were screaming.
The amount of water that came out of the ground all around the earth would have sent scores of tsunamis hundreds of feet high that traveled hundreds of miles inland, all while the earth shook mightily.
But this was not an earthquake like we think of today, where only one area is decimated. The whole earth shook as it was quickly covered with water.

"THE SIGNS OF THE END - PART FIVE" BY PETE GARCIA FROM "THE OMEGA LETTER"!!
Signs of the End: 5 of 5 - Pete Garcia -http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=8237
The final event in which Gods interjects directly into the affairs of fallen man, is what we know as the Second Coming. The reason we call it the Second Coming is that this will be the second time Christ physically returns to the earth. This is opposed to the Rapture of the Church, where we believers are physically caught up to meet Christ in the air and go back with Him to the Father's house for a period of time. No, when Christ comes at the Second Coming, there will be no mistaking it for He will return and the whole of creation will serve as a witness. The sky will split open, and the armies of heaven will follow Him, making the grandest procession a king had or will ever make.
The Second Coming is as different from the Rapture of the Church, as His First Coming was from His second. In the first, He came wrapped in human flesh, as a humble servant. In His second, He returns in His glorified form as the victorious King of kings. The first coming He allowed men to mock, beat, and crucify Him...but at His Second, He speaks a word and millions are slain. He masked His divinity at His first coming, so He could redeem men, as a man. He will not mask His divinity in His second coming....for every knee will bow at His Kingship. At His first, only a Star marked His place for a few shepherds. At His second, the world will see the sky's parting and be in terror. He is the rightful heir, and the world that remains in that time, will be awestruck at His coming and even those who are in hell will see His coming. (Rev. 1:7) The sky will part for Him and the armies of Heaven will follow.

"EVERYBODY LOVES ISRAEL" BY ALF CENGIA FROM "THE OMEGA LETTER"!!
Everybody Loves Israel - Alf Cengia -http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=8236
Did you hear the fantastic news? Everybody loves Israel. The Jews are the darlings of the world. Benjamin Netanyahu has been nominated for the next Nobel Peace Prize. He informed the media press that he was embarrassed by all the attention. No, really!
Oh...and did I tell you that I was a six-foot-five blonde Norwegian movie star?
As you may be aware, the British Labor Party and the Oxford University Labor Club have had to respond to a string of anti-Semitic comments made by its members. In fact, even before Jeremy Corbyn became the party leader, his defense of certain individuals drew unwelcome attention.
Labor party member Ken Livingstone was recently interviewed by the media over party member statements about Jews and Zionism. The interview was labeled a "car crash." I'd call it a Monty Python revealing moment. The more Livingstone was asked to defend careless remarks by his comrades, and the more he denied anti-Semitism, the deeper a hole he dug himself into.
According to Livingstone:
"A real anti-Semite doesn't just hate the Jews in Israel, they hate their Jewish neighbor in Golders Green, or in Stoke Newington - it's a physical loathing."
Well that didn't come out quite right. On Hitler and the Jews he claimed that: "...There were private meetings between the Zionist movement and Hitler's government that were kept confidential."
It soon became apparent to many observers that Livingstone was part of the problem. Media pressure forced Corbyn to order an independent investigation. Livingstone and several party members were consequently suspended.

"THE WORLD IGNORES GOD'S COMING WRATH" BY HOWARD GREEN FROM "RAPTURE READY"!!
The World Ignores God's Coming Wrath - By Howard Green - http://raptureready.com/soap2/green50.html
Ignorance is bliss or so they say. The problem with ignorance is that issues we are unfamiliar with and would rather ignore don't just go away. Poor grades, health issues, economic crises, and personal relationships often deteriorate because of lack of knowledge, inattention, or ignoring the problems all together.
People will often claim ignorance when some problem comes to a head and sometimes it is a valid excuse. Regardless, the problem still exists and needs to be dealt with. There is one issue the world cannot claim ignorance and that's the coming judgment. Some people will explain it away, drink it away, medicate it, rationalize it away, and scoff it away because the world ignores God's coming wrath.
Romans 1:18-20 "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse."
God in His divine mercy has been warning the world throughout the centuries that His judgement and wrath is coming.

"TILL THE TIME OF THE END" BY PASTOR MIKE TAYLOR FROM "RAPTURE READY"!!
Till the Time of the End - BY Pastor Mike Taylor -http://www.churchofgod-usa.org/1/post/2016/04/till-the-time-of-the-end.html
Daniel 12:8-10 "And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
9 And he said, Go your way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
10Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand."
Understanding that the Bible is 25% prophecy, and that to understand the whole of the bible, one must come to learn the meaning of the books of the Bible that deal with prophecy and it's fulfillment. The Bible has been and will be 100% accurate in its predictions of things to come. No other books give the reader so much difficulty than the Book of Daniel and the last book of the Bible, Revelation. Each have symbols and passages that speak of things to come. Things that have been completed as prophesied and things yet to occur. In this message we will deal with the Prophecy noted in the title found in Daniel and then later, jump to Revelation and show their connection to the time of the end.
ANGEL GABRIEL REVEALS THE FUTURE TO DANIEL!
