It's Time To Get Right With God Now
These Scriptures give strong reasons why every unconverted person should turn to Christ today. The Holy Ghost has a message, and it can be summed up in one word: "TODAY!"
"The Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts."
The message of the Holy Spirit of God to every lost sinner is, "Today!" Be saved today!
Today is the day of salvation
Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on Him while He is near. Isaiah 55:6
If you reject God’s offer of salvation you will die in your sins:
Jesus says unto you, "that you shall die in your sins: for if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sins." John 8:24
The Bible says, The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. --2 Peter 3:9

IT'S A SET UP! Article From Olive Tree Ministries I Call It A Well Needed Wake Up CALL
Click this link; TO MAKE YOU THINK
To truly understand the times, we need to know who the movers and shakers are and how they schemed to have things play out as they have in the last 100+ years.
I've got good news and bad news and good news. First, the good news: GOD IS IN CONTROL A link to this beautifully encouraging and challenging song was emailed to Jan recently. And we all need this encouragement after being so demoralized in the last week -- not to mention the last couple of years. Our Heavenly Father absolutely knows what is happening to us, and He has it well in hand.
Now I've got some bad news -- although I have to say I don't really see it as totally bad news because of my perspective on it: I am convinced we are watching the set-up for what's known as the Tribulation.
Let me ask you a question: If one were to go about preparing for a world system that would be taken over by someone empowered by Satan, a system that would give this someone complete control of and loyalty from the people of the world, how would he do it? Well, we're not going to go through all the maneuverings today, but let me give you a little taste and see if anything sounds familiar.
LAY THE FOUNDATION: The most necessary thing would be to lay a satanically inspired foundation for this structure: A broad base upon which this system would be built. Now it just so happens that a woman named Alice Bailey (1880-1949) who founded a publishing company named The Lucifer Publishing Company, communed with a demon known as "The Tibetan." Through Alice Bailey, "The Tibetan" explained that the world must change. Specifically, he said, "The old established rhythms, inherent in the old forms of religion, of politics, and of the social order, must give place to newer ideals . . . and to the new order."
In his new, critical book Grave Influence, Brannon Howse gives the background of 21 radicals who have each contributed to society's transformation process. Of Bailey he says, "Bailey's worldview and goals have shaped the thinking of many individuals we examine in this book. To fully grasp the worldview war raging among us, we must understand the philosophies of Alice Bailey." Bailey and her Tibetan friend laid the foundation for this New World Order.
INVADE THE CHURCH:.'" Two men that Brannon introduces in his book -- Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855) and Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) -- "believed a person could not know truth, that we should embrace the mysticism of the world and reject absolutes." This idea has been labeled "Existentialism". Existentialism gave birth to post-modernism (which argues that truth and reality are created by man and not by God and that truth is situational and subjective) and post-modernism gave birth to neo-orthodoxy and, eventually, the Emergent Church. Brannon says, "The rise of the Emergent Church brings to mind the words of the late Vance Havner regarding Satan's shrewdest strategy for getting his way in the world: 'The devil is not fighting religion; he is too smart for that. He is producing a counterfeit Christianity so much like the real one that good Christians are afraid to speak out against it
OVERRUN THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM: Get 'em while they're young. Heard that before? John Dewey (1859-1952) is known as "the father of education." He is less famous for the pedigree he worked so hard to establish. He was "a Fabian Socialist, signer of the Humanist Manifesto 1, founding member of the American Civil Liberties Union, and the president of the League for Industrial Democracy . . . John Dewey admitted that the purpose of school is not to create educated students but to change their values and prepare them for their place in life. Benjamin Bloom [1913-1999 - Brannon covers him too] admitted that the goal of his educational philosophy is to change a student's 'fixed beliefs.
Enter: Outcome-Based Education (aka Mastery Learning, aka Goals 2000, aka No Child Left Behind). Brannon says, "There is reason to believe that thought control is exactly what the educrats in Washington have in mind." Whoa -- heavy charge. But check this out: In the 1970s, a controversial social studies program called Man: A Course of Study, was introduced into many American schools. The course was designed by B. F. Skinner (1904-1990, yes, he's covered too) with the expressed goal "to mold children's social attitudes and beliefs along lines that set them apart and alienate them from the beliefs and moral values of their parents and local community." I'll just say it: The picture I got reading these sections of Brannon's book brought pictures of Hitler Youth to mind. A New World Order requires citizens -- and specifically an army -- predisposed to do the bidding of the State.
DESTROY THE FINAL OBSTACLE: In last week's e-alert Jan made this amazing deduction -- among many -- "We do know the biggest factor holding up the one-world order has been America."
On March 16, Jack Kinsella wrote a brilliant article on the history of the Left's desire to pass health care and intimated that the passing of health care legislation would equal the acquiring of control over the people of America when he said, "Until now, government control has been limited to those the government has managed to make dependent on them . . . but that only covers a small segment of the population on any given issue. Everybody gets sick. Everybody needs health care. That's why 'True Believers' in Congress are evidently ready to fall on their swords in order to seize it." And earlier this week in a local Michigan radio interview, Democratic House Congressman John Dingell seemed to confirm Jack's theory.
Finally, on March 24, Rush Limbaugh played clips from a CNBC interview with hedge fund co-founder and author David Mullins who told his interviewers that the 900-year-old "Western Christian Empire," of which America is the largest part, is in decline and that something will quickly move in to fill the vacuum created by its end.
I've said it before, and I'll doubtless say it again: It's all coming together. If you read Brannon's book -- and I really, strongly encourage you to read it -- you will see how we're being set up. All of the building blocks needed to construct this world system have been molded for hundreds of years to bring us to this place and this time. As you see him put each of these bricks in place, a structure will form that looks amazingly like the one-world system needed to usher in the Antichrist. And folks, it looks to me like they're ready to dedicate the building and cut the ribbon.
Now, back to the good news: Jesus is coming to get us first! I say this unabashedly. The reason the construct of the one-world system doesn't terrify me is because I'm not planning to be around when the man of sin steps onto the scene. Actually, as I see prophecy unfolding like this, I get excited! Jesus promised He'd come and get us. And He said that we would be kept from the hour of trial that is coming on the earth. And Paul told the Thessalonians that Jesus will deliver us from the wrath to come. We're goin' Home!! This is our "blessed hope"!
(We at Olive Tree Ministries know that not all of you share a pre-Tribulation Rapture theology, but as Dr. Gary Frazier said on Jan's radio program last Saturday, March 27, "Let's not have great divides over this." This isn't "escapist theology." The fact is that there may be plenty of tough times that American and other Western Christians have to go through in the coming weeks, months, and years. There is a war against Christianity in America right now. But this war is coming from man's wrath. What happens in the Tribulation Heidi is referring to is God's wrath. Heidi refers to the "blessed hope" and many need this in these tumultuous times. We have heard from thousands who express great comfort in this.)
While we're here, God wants us to understand what is happening around us and respond biblically. We mustn't disengage from life. We must keep fighting for the salvation of souls up until the very last minute. As Brannon says, "The spiritual war rages, and the stakes are much higher because the battle is no longer for our culture but for the souls, hearts, and minds of our children and grandchildren" (and, I would add, of those friends, co-workers and neighbors all around us).
So, know what is happening in our world and why it is happening; fight for the lost souls all around you, keep looking for Jesus to come; and -- in the midst of all of this chaos -- remember: God is in Control!
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
God is in control
To truly understand the times, we need to know who the movers and shakers are and how they schemed to have things play out as they have in the last 100+ years.

Lucifer: Why Would I Tell You The Truth??
I found this to be a very uniquely entertaining yet sobering and amazing video, exposing Satan for the liar that he is. This music video is done from 'his' prospective of things.

Wise as Serpents, Harmless as Doves
Headline: FBI Probes Threats Directed at House Democrats
Excerpt:
Federal law enforcement officials are looking into at least two possible threats directed at members of Congress and their families that Democrats suggest are related to their vote for health care reform.
More than 10 lawmakers have complained they've received threats since the run-up to Sunday's House vote on a health insurance overhaul, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said Wednesday, and law enforcement officials are taking the allegations seriously.
Headline: Republican Eric Cantor's Campaign Office Shot At
Excerpt:
Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor said Thursday that his Richmond campaign office has been shot at and that he's received "threatening e-mails" -- but at the same time the House minority whip accused top Democrats of trying to exploit the threats they've been receiving for "political gain."
Cantor said "a bullet was shot through the window" of his campaign office. The incident happened Monday, Fox News has learned, the latest in a rash of apparent threats and acts of intimidation against members of Congress. Most of the threats so far have been reported by Democrats, but Cantor -- the No. 2 Republican in the House -- is one of about 10 lawmakers who has asked for increased security protection, Fox News has learned.
Readers, there is nothing worse that could happen in the tense political climate we're presently witnessing in the United States of America than for violence to erupt.
If (KEYWORD: IF) there actually is a Leftist revolution in opposition to the will of the American people underway, as many from the Right suspect is the case, the very last thing conservatives, particularly conservative Christians who've already been labeled as so-called 'right-wing extremists', need is the Left in possession of anything remotely close to a legitimate reason to demonize or lash out against us.
As I've been documenting here, the Left has been masterfully deceiving large portions of the American populace through their allies, the mainstream media, for some time now concerning the character and motives of anyone and everyone they feel poses any sort of threat to the Obama administration's agenda for changing America. Therefore, exercising extreme restraint in the face of what appears a grave threat to our Republic is advisable. Acting otherwise, in any sort of revolutionary environment, real or perceived, would serve the Left. Who in their Right mind would want to do THAT? Not me. No way!
Please, Christians. Encourage everyone in your circle of influence to be patient and longsuffering in keeping with the teachings of scripture. This is a time for us to turn to God in prayer, not to Smith & Wesson.
If our nation falling into some sort of revolution, bankrupty or profound disarray is part of God's end times prophetic plan, there is nothing anyone can do to stop it through violence. If there remains hope for our nation, petitioning God to help us is our very best course of action. We can ill afford to forget that at a time like this.
2nd Chronicles 7:14: If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Christians, we have been sent forth "as sheep in the midst of wolves", according to Matthew 10:16.
This is a time for us to be "wise as serpents, and harmless as doves".

So WHAT Are YOU Waitng For?
If you haven't turned to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior yet -- WHY NOT?
He will save you. Why wait til its too late?
He will save you. Why wait til its too late?

What Does God's Word Say About Judging Others?
This is something that we ALL need to hear, in today's churches, there are too many people that are compromising God's word. And many pastors today are afraid to stand up for God's Word in fear of offending someone. The world has taken one piece of scripture and reads it out of context, Matthew 7:1-2 1"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. They need to not stop there but to keep reading the rest of the passage, Matthew 1-9 to get the full meaning of what God's Word says about judging others. This video was taken from Pastor Billy Crone's sermon The Book of Revelation 2:12 and it addresses this issue on shouldl we judge others? And if so, how are we to do it and why should we.
