God wants Christians to read and study Endtime Prophecies. One of the many reasons we have the Bible, is to know and learn about endtimes, revelations and prophecies. The reason God gave us the Bible, is to know about him, and prophecy is part of that. All parts of the Bible are of the utmost importance. Revelation 1:3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near Ezekiel 13:1-2 Then the word of the Lord came to me. He said, 2 “Son of man,[a] you must speak to the prophets of Israel for me 1/3 of the Bible is prophecy, we have whole books devoted to prophecy, Revelations and the Book of Daniel as well as prophecy being found in every book of the Bible. Even the, Lords Prayer- “thy kingdom come,” we are praying a future event, when the millennium rule and reign of Christ will come to this earth as it is in heaven. Reading, studying and knowing endtime prophecy is a must for any Christian, and God will bless you for reading it. Don’t miss out on God’s blessings.

Lesson on the Bread and the Blood. Eating Jesus’s flesh and drinking his blood ? A little complicated at first, once you look into it, you can see the true meaning. Having read the whole Bible reveals the true meaning. Reading these verses by themself, gives a incorrect meaning. In John 6:53, Jesus says, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you Eating the flesh and drinking the blood are metaphors. Metaphor-a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. Bread? . Jesus three times identifies Himself as that spiritual bread (John 6:35, 48, 51). Blood? Ithe law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22 Blood Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die” (John 6:49–50). Like manna, Jesus came down from heaven; and, like manna, Jesus gives life. Unlike manna, the life Jesus gives lasts for eternity (verse 58). In this way, Jesus is greater than Moses (see Hebrews 3:3). Jesus compares himself with the manna that the Jews ate in the wilderness that God gave them to literally live on in the wilderness. Jesus uses this to explain what the must do. The manna was literal bread, Jesus was spiritual bread. He compares himself with that. Having established His metaphor (and the fact that He is speaking of faith in Him), Jesus presses the symbolism even further: “I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and this bread, which I will offer so the world may live, is my flesh. . . . I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you. But anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life. . . . My flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. . . . Anyone who feeds on me will live because of me” (John 6:51–56, NLT The, “Blood”. When the Jews were in Egypt, the blood of a lamb was put above their doors, this blood literally saved their life from the last plague that God brought upon the Egyptians. A actual first born lamb that was without blemish was used. The blood symbolizes life and death. Blood keeps all human alive, when we loose blood we die. We must accept, put our full trust and faith, in Jesus’s death on the cross, using our real literal mind to believe this. We must take what Jesus said and did and put it into our heart, mind and soul, inside of us, When we drink the wine which is a symbol of his blood, we put it inside of our body by drinking it. So you see that Jesus did not want to believe the wine really turns in to literal blood and literal or real things, but is symbolic meaning. The Jews that new the Old Testament, When their ancestor were in Egypt and in the wilderness for 40 years, would have know about the blood over the door post and the Manns that God feed them in the wilderness to keep them alive physically. The Bread and wine are representing life and death. Christ gave his literal life on the cross and we must feed on his flesh, which symbolically give us everlasting life. The bread in the wilderness was temporary, as they had to eat bread new everyday to stay alive. Jesus the Bread of life keeps us alive for ever, as we eat it once fore our salvation. Our eternal souls have been filled and never starve. Jesus talks about the bread. Jesus told Satan. “ man does not live on bread alone, but the words of God.” Jesus is the Word of God. We eat it by reading it, filling our heart, soul and mind with it. His Word, is Jesus, Jesus is God, the Bible is the Word of God. We need the word of God to be saved, the word (Bible) causes us to grow in faith, love and in obedience to God. Jesus is the bread of Life, that saves us, changes us, maintains us and grows us. The bread and wine are metaphors, symbols not literal. No more than the American flag is the literal United States of America, but a symbol that represents America.

What’s does God want from you? To Be Saved If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised him from death, you will be saved. For it is by our faith that we are put right with God; it is by our confession that we are saved. (Romans 10:9-10 To Love Him He answered, "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself. (Luke 10:27) To Love, and Treat Others The Way You want to be Treated. 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] There is no commandment greater than these. (Mark 12:31)

Dealing with Paranoia! Psalm 91:1-16 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day Put your trust in God!

John 14:23 Jesus replied, "Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.

There’s more to being a Christian than 1 hr a week at church. James 1:22-25 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does

Mark 8:36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet lose their own soul (to hell!)

Who Can be Saved? Anyone who accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour. The worst people that you could imagine, can be saved if they repent of their sins. Adolph Hitler, Stalin, Charles Mansion, Osama Bin Laden, murders and rapist can be saved if they repent of their sins. Salvation is based on what Jesus did, not what we do. Often we think that a person that steals, kills, takes and what ever other horrible crime there is, could not be saved and deserves to go to hell. The fact is, since all people are sinners that means we are all destined to hell, unless we repent of our sins and accept Jesus. So don’t think for a minute that it’s impossible for a evil person to repent, some have on their death bed. Long as you have a breath in your body, you can call on the name of the Lord and you will be saved and go to heaven when you die. Whoever means; anyone, anybody, now is the time for your salvation. Romans 10:13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved

The righteousness of Christ! The only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone. You and I must put our faith and trust in Jesus’s death to have our sins forgiven. All humans are sinful, those sins keep us from going to heaven as no sin can ever enter heaven, not even one. God provided us a way, through his Son Jesus; Jesus came to earth, born of a virgin and lived that sinless perfect life that you and I could not do. Jesus took the wrath of God upon himself for our sins. You must ask Jesus to come into your heart and accept him as your Lord and Saviour. This is more that just saying words, but really believing and putting your faith and trust in what he did with all your heart, soul and mind. Anyone can say words, but believing what you say is another thing. We go to heaven through Christ righteousness, there is no other way. From the Bible, Romans 6:23 (King James Version): For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Words to Live by! Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you. Exodus 23:25 | NIV

Bible lesson for today! How to be blessed. If you serve God; God will honor you, so if you don’t serve God, then God won’t honor you. You can’t expect God’s blessings when you won’t serve him. Whoever wants to serve me must follow me, so that my servant will be with me where I am. And my Father will honor anyone who serves me. (John 12:26 Obey the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart. Remember the great things he has done for you. (1 Samuel 12:24) So then, my dear friends, stand firm and steady. Keep busy always in your work for the Lord, since you know that nothing you do in the Lord’s service is ever useless. (1 Corinthians 15:5 Fellow Christians- You must go to church! You must read your Bible! You must pray! You must worship God! You must praise God! You must give your tithes! You must help the poor! You must tell others of Christ! You must do what the Bible says! You serve God when you do these things and much more, then God will honor you. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

2 Corinthians 5:21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Human beings are made up of 3 parts- Body- Soul- Spirit- 1 Thessalonians 5:23 23 May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

God’s Word the Bible is Truth! 2 Peter 1:20-21 Knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture (Bible) comes from someone's own interpretation. For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit

Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted There is a time for you and me to go to church and worship God, make the time, to do it!

Words to live by! Galatians 1:10 Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power? Are you washed in the blood of the lamb? Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour? Are you washed in the blood of the lamb...

The Rapture and Noah! How high was the water that God flooded the world with? Genesis 7:20 says that the waters submerged the world’s highest mountains under 15 cubits of water. That means that flood covered Mount Everest, which is 29,028 feet tall and getting a bit taller every day, with 22 feet of water. Noah and his family, were safe inside the ark above the earth. When the Rapture happens, we that are righteous(Born Again) will be taken up above the earth and the heavens to safely, while God’s judgement is let loose upon the earth for 7 years. Noah’s ark is a picture of what is to come. While Noah was building the ark, the people laughed and mocked him, as there were no rivers close by and it never rained. Five hundred years went by as Noah built the ark, then the rain came and the world that rejected God, screamed and cried in terror. Today we Christians eagerly await our Lord Jesus Christ to come and take us up. It’s been 2000yrs and the world laughs and doesn’t believe, just like the world during Noah’s time. Are you ready for the Lord to come? Do you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour? Don’t be left behind! Put your faith and trust in Jesus before it’s to late! Romans 14:11 It is written: "'As surely as I live,' says the Lord, 'every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God

Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you, nor forsake you.
