NOTES: The World is Falling Apart!  But God.

A great new day the Lord has made,  we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Is the world falling apart or is everything falling into place?  Both.  Because getting  very close to Daniel’s 70th week but those who believe in Jesus will get raptured before that.

Reading Scriptures about Jesus:

Hebrews 12:2, 1 John 4:15, John 10:28-30, Jesus is God.  Isaiah 53:5.  Written about Jesus 700 years before He came.  Acts 4:12,  1 John 4:9, Romans 10:9, 1 Timothy 2:5.  Jesus, the only way to God.  Paid for our sins with His blood.

Tom says it seems like a lull, yet there is so much going on in the news.

Vietnamese president resigns, saying violations by him left a bad reputation on the communist party. And Ireland’s Prime Minister resigned.  Tom says  so many governments are shaky.  Waiting for the antichrist and they will get him. They  want one world leader.  No one knows where to turn anymore.  Turning to Russia, China, Iran and North Korea.  

Nearly 1,000 Americans in Haiti plead for help as gangs unleash new attacks killing at least 12 people in Port-a-Prince, looting homes.  Haiti being called one of the most dire humanitarian situations in the world.  Dozens came in on US government chartered evacuation flight to Miami. Calling for international response, mass migration.  As of now the US doesn’t have plans to send troops into Haiti, relying to work with other governments and places to provide a solution.

Much talk about the April 8 eclipse.  Warns of cell phone disruptions.   Millions of tourists are expected to flock to the path of totality.  Up to 1 million are set to go to Texas, 500,000 to Indiana and Ohio and nearly 400,000 to New York. Expect overload of phone service.  T Mobile is deploying additional sites on standby. In a small Ohio town that could see 250,000 visitors Verizon is setting up portable towers.  Tom says  that will be an interesting day, if we are still here. 

Insider Paper: North Korea leader overseas hypersonic missile engine tests for a new type of intermediate range hypersonic missile.  Wars, rumors of wars.

Israel Today:   IDF operation in Shifa Hospital in Northern Gaza killed over 90 terrorists and, over 300 have surrendered to Israeli forces. Tom says all that going on in a hospital. 

Netanyahu spoke at the Knesset and said attacks focus on me because I won’t allow a Palestinian State. Commented that the US asked them not to go into Rafah but Netanyahu says they have no other option.  And said the attacks are toward him because he’s preventing the creation of Palestinian State.  Netanyahu said Israel is preventing a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza by investigating how to distribute aid through private companies and local sources because Hamas has stopped  attempts to distribute though locals.

Another report spread all around telegram and twitter yesterday .  It said France is preparing to deploy 2,000 troops to Ukraine to help fight Russia. France blamed the remarks on Russia and called it disinformation and irresponsible. 

Canada announced it will stop selling arms to Israel.  This suspension comes amidst mounting pressure on the Canadian Government from groups such as lawyers and Canadians of Palestinian descent.  Tom says Canada has given 3-4 million dollars to Ukraine, but now no longer sells to Israel. 

Tom says the only way he can be upbeat about what is going on is because we that belong to Jesus are getting our of here soon.

Article:  now they say climate change is contributing to global unrest.  Lists events :  war between Israel and Hamas reached 6 months, a series of coup attempts across 6 African countries have left thousands dead and millions displaced, and war in Ukraine does not appear to be ending soon.  Say while the cause of global unrest can be attributed to numerous factors such as Covid 19 blowback and economic equality, some experts are pointing to unexpected culprit – climate change!   Tom jokes and says, yes, its all from the weather.

Last 24 hour earthquakes, 32 over 4.0, 5 over 5.0.

Another “friendly skies” story.  Alaska Boeing 737 windshield cracks during landing.  Reports lately of other safety concerns of the company.

So many have trouble paying for necessities.  Bankruptcy and delinquent payments.  Major economic impacts.  1,000 Dollar stores are going to be shut down, showing US consumers not in good shape.  Tom sees in the comments how hard they have it.  Many living in their cars.  Says 2 couples were living in one house, all 4 had full time jobs and they could not pay all the bills.

Tom says it’s a different world.  Have to make a lot of money to survive and its getting worse.  The 7 year tribulation is coming and it will be a days wages for a loaf of bread.  Don’t want to be here for that.

Clown World – 

Now saying python meat could be a sustainable nutritious food source scientists say, good for the climate.  Say these reptiles could be one of the most sustainable  animals to farm on the planet.  Says its not unlike chicken!   Tom says everything tastes like chicken.  Tom says he just wants cow!

Testimony and comments –

Said his sister in law was always trying to witness to him and he didn’t like it. He  was sitting at her table drunk  and she threw a small New Testament at him and said I’m going to heaven and you’re not because Jesus died for me.  It made him mad and he opened a Bible to read it to prove her wrong.  He got saved instead!   God can use anyone he says! We are all a work in progress.

When others see our faith in Jesus in  hard times it can lead as a witness to Him.

Says the lull is the calm before the storm.  Jesus is at the door, keep our eyes on Jesus.  

From the grand-daughter story of her grandmother that continued to pray for her grandfather, who lived a rebellious life. One night while her grandmother was praying for him an angel appeared at the foot of her bed and told her not to worry, that he would accept Jesus as his Savior.  He did, changed his life completely and went to church.  The granddaughter says she remembers as a 3 year old being in church with them felt the power of the Lord and raised her arms and started saying thank you Jesus and praising His name.  Standing on the pew next to her grandfather he smiled and hugged her. Always remembers that.  Said she loved him so much.  96 years old when he died, said he was going home to Jesus.

We are miraculously made.  Tom says even with the eclipse, a miracle.  We see the moon go in front of the sun, they look like they are the exact same size.  But the Sun is 400X bigger than the moon.  But God miraculously makes the sun be 400X farther away than the moon so they can line up perfectly.  Amazing God.

Gospel

The greatest thing that ever happened was God sent Jesus His Son to pay for our sins with His blood.  On the earth, fully God, fully man, perfect, never sinned once.  The perfect sacrifice, fulfilled the law perfectly.  With faith in that blood it will remove all sins.  Wash us white as snow.

Believe He died and was buried, rose again on the 3rd day.  1 Corinthians 15:3-4. Saved by grace, an unearned gift.   Ephesians 1:7, Ephesians 2:8-9.

He loves us.  Don’t reject or refuse, will not go to heaven. 

Trust in Him today.  He will break the chains.  Eternal life with the King of kings and Lord of lords.
