Here's an interesting story coming out of Canada--The Bible-Fast Becomming a Dangerous Book in Canada....Priest Investigated For Quoting the Bible. It wasn't too long we had two American pastors accused of a hate crime for preaching the gospel to muslims in the U.K. Perilous times indeed are here and soon the Bible will be outlawed completely in western, "supposedly" civilized nations. God is shaking the world and those who are on the Lord's side will be tried and persecuted for their faith in Jesus Christ. The New Testament Church message of Christ crucified to save sinners and His resurrection shook the world upside down in the face of persecution in the early Christian church.
A priest is being investigated as a potential criminal under a federal "hate crimes" law for quoting from the Bible, and he's being targeted using a Canadian provision under which no defendant ever has been acquitted, according to a new report.... More here
You can see and hear this outrageous claim here by Todd Bentley. A big thank you goes to endtimespropheticwords for this heads up.
"Last night, Todd Bentley read out a prophecy from Wendy Alec of GOD TV. It was done to hype the Sunday night show (8th June - tonight) for the kingly anointing to fall. Jesus apparantly said via Wendy Alec (you can hear it word for word on the video) that ‘I am coming in person to Lakeland. I am coming in the clouds, surrounded by chariots and a host of angels. I will set foot on stage in a divine personal one on one visitation to the revival.’ ****** Those in the charismatic circles need to wake up. For those who are not aware, this is the same scam that Benny Hinn used to keep his followers and viewers tuned in to keep the money coming in back in the year 2,000.
From Deception in the Church we have documentation concerning Benny Hinn's false claims that Jesus was to show up at Hinn's crusades following, prophesied by Ruth Heflin, famous for the gold teeth and gold dust scam used by Bentley. Go to Deception in the Church's link above and read the documentation.
Jesus Christ Slated To Star With Benny Hinn ... IN PERSON! by Sandy Simpson, 4/2/00 UPDATED - 6/20/00!
I received the following e-mails confirming that Benny Hinn has announced that Jesus Christ will appear bodily in Hinn's crusades. This was "prophesied" by Ruth Heflin, now famous for serving up gold teeth and gold dust all over Christendumb (and I am not misspelling that word!). Since this cannot possibly be the Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the only Son of God, I have to assume it will be an antichrist if not The Antichrist. Lord Maitreya is a good candidate for this deception, as he has already been appearing and disappearing to groups around the world. Maitreya has long promised to make an appearance on worldwide TV, speaking to those who wish to be deceived telepathically. Benny Hinn's followers, as well as practically everyone else connected with the Third Wave, have been softened up to the paranormal realm long enough to be receptive to this kind of occult phenomenon. Read the following e-mails for proof of this predicted event. See the DITC Newsletter Volume 4, Issue 9 for more commentary on this issue. Is this likely to happen? As with all false prophesies, it is hard to tell what shape this will take if any. I think the chances are pretty good that nothing will happen, in which case we all need to get back to Ruth Heflin and remind her that she heard an "audible voice". If Maitreya or some other impostor shows up, this may signal the beginning of end time events. In either case, keep your ears to the ground on this one.
George O. Wood, General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God has come forth with a general statement concerning 'revival', but conspicuously omits Todd Bentley and Lakeland 'Revival'.
He avoids mentioning and denouncing what is going on in Lakeland with Todd Bentley and rebuking or confronting those leaders involved in this counterfeit revival, and thousands are still being lead in the wrong direction, and seeking unbiblical, extrabiblicall and New Age occult counsel through partaking in this 'revival'. The Apostle Paul did not hesitate to openly confront Peter and rebuke him for Peter's hypocrisy as shown in Acts 15:7-11 and in Galatians 2:11, 14-19, and Mr Wood needs to do likewise.
Thus far, Mr. Wood has only compromised the Gospel of Christ by doing too little to late and not taking a stand to openly confront the guilty Assembly of God leaders involved in this circus' and the show goes on, making a mockery out of the Gospel of Christ before the entire world. Mr. Wood's statement can be read at the above link.
The Apostle Paul wrote and taught in his writings to Timothy:
"Preach the word; be instant in season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." II Timothy 4:2-4
This has got to be one of the strangest stories I have read in quite awhile. The earth is really getting hot... so hot that the heat from the ground burned through this boy's shoes causing second degree burns. A. Gore and the green people will probably use this story to hype and promote their man-made globlal warming agenda. Coincidentally, the Army has just come out with a statement that it is the Sun, and not man that is causing climate change.
There was no fire, but the ground was hot enough in a Colorado Springs park to burn through an eight year old boy’s shoes and cause at least second degree burns on his feet.
The boy went the hospital. His Crocs style shoes that were left behind have big holes with burned edges.Firefighters want to know what’s causing the ground to get so hot near Golden Hills Park in the Rockrimmon neighborhood. Battalion Chief, Kent Matthews says, "In my twenty-four years I haven't witnessed this kind of occurrence. So it's unique.”
After the boy was treated and sent to the hospital firefighters took surface readings that showed hard to believe temperatures. According to Chief Matthews, "The highest temperature we got at the surface of the soil with the sun shining on it was 800 degrees, which is pretty darn significant. Radiant heat from the sun will get it up around 150, 160 degrees, but not to that level."
Firefighters have taped off the area and are monitoring it until they can figure out what's causing the ground to get so hot. Tests by hazmat team members show there are no dangerous gases. Crews have cut a fire-line around the area to prevent the heat from potentially starting a wildfire.Early assessments show the problem area is coal dust.
Neighbors say the area has appeared blackened as long as they can remember. What has to be determined is if it was dumped here years ago or if there's something happening underground. Crews from the state geological are on the way to figure out an explanation.

Jesus said we would see these signs just before He returns in Luke 21:25-And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring. Things will be happening on the earth causing confusion, that no one will be able to explain or give an answer for. One thing we can be sure of is His coming is very soon.
Just out on You Tube from Israel's Channel 1 T.V. Watch it here.
The report on Ami Ortiz Purim Package Bomb. This is the report that the police of Israel tried to prevent Channel 1 T.V. from showing and took Channel 1 to court twice and lost.
The report, which is vividly graphic and reveals the extensive injuries Ami received throughout his entire body from the Purim package bomb that was delivered to his home and exploded, was shown on Channel 1 Israel on May 30, 2008 and is a very recent report. It is highly suspected that orthodox Jews were behind this henious crime.
This Father’s Day, a group of LGBT and straight-ally families will spend their holiday in a way that is both extraordinary and profoundly commonplace: they will attend services at Saddleback Church, the mega-church founded by Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life.
The following day, the families will join leaders from Saddleback Church for a private meal and conversation.
The visit is the conclusion of a six-week journey, a gay-friendly family road trip, to initiate dialogue with mega-church congregations across the nation. In December 2007, organizers of the project - which is called The American Family Outing - invited the leaders of six major mega-churches to match families from their congregations with LGBT families for a meal and conversation. Then, on Mother’s Day 2008, the outing began with a visit to Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas. More here

Let us take a look to see what the Scriptures have to say about a Christian brother (or sister) who is in open rebellion, sexually or otherwise towards the Word of God and how Christians are suppose to respond to this.
1 Corinthians 5:11-13 (King James Version)11But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.12For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?13But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
A Gym That Caters To Christians? This gets a red flag!
That's what the headliner reads from the New York Times today, but take a closer look at the fine print: The gym offers classes including "Yogod," its take on yoga, and "Chariots of Fire," a spinning class.
The Clermont gym has about 1,800 members, Dr. Sorchy said. He has opened 15 other Lord's Gyms around the country, and is in the process of opening four more. Continues at link.
“For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.” (1Corinthians 1:21)
Warren is going to reform what the church does. He is well on his way. Warren has turned the Gospel of Jesus Christ into a method. The method is to invite people on a forty day journey to discover the meaning of life.1 Warren’s students are asked to take an oath before a witness (which Jesus forbids) to turn forty days of their life over to Rick Warren and his method. And there is more
Will Graham and his "Purpose" Driven Gospel' This story gets a big red flag.
Quote:
"But his message quickly switched gears into the eternal, sounding much like his father and grandfather have over the decades
. 'Only the cross gets you to God. Jesus bled and died because He loves you so much. He died to restore a relationship with you. Come to Him by faith.' Will Graham
"On Saturday night he spoke on knowing one's purpose, and used his pen as an example. Laying the motionless pen on the podium, he said, "The only time this pen will write is when it's in its master's hand, because the master gives it purpose. My friends, the same thing is true with us. When we're in our Master's hands, God's hands, then we can be used for our purpose. God will give you purpose and meaning, but you have to come to the Master. God is waiting on you tonight." Will Graham
******
Huh? Am I reading this right? In 12 sentences, Will Graham uses the word "purpose" FOUR times. The only time a pen will write is when the master gives it (the pen) purpose? You've got to be kidding me! Am I now to believe that a pen is made in the image of God which gets its purpose from the master from Will Graham's anology?Sounds more like Mr. Purpose Driven himself, Rick Warren wrote Will Graham's script.More here

So where is the message of sin and the need to repent or turn away from sin? It is completely left out of this water-down Gospel message of Christ. How can anyone 'come to Christ' if they first don't know that they are a sinner and must repent of their sins? Without the message of repentence of sin, one cannot be saved.
Jesus clearly taught one must repent.
From that time Jesus began to preach, and say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Matthew 4:17
Hit-And-Run Victim Left For Dead This is a shocking, unbelieveable story which reveals the deplorable and sinful condition of the human race and the dangerous times we are living in. An elderly man is run over by a hit and run driver, left for dead, and witnesses and cars pass him by and do nothing to help him. ***** HARTFORD, Conn. - A 78-year-old man is tossed like a rag doll by a hit-and-run driver and lies motionless on a busy city street as car after car goes by. Pedestrians gawk but appear to do nothing. One driver stops briefly but then pulls back into traffic. A man on a scooter slowly circles the victim before zipping away.
The chilling scene — captured on video by a streetlight surveillance camera — has touched off a round of soul-searching in Hartford, with the capital city's biggest newspaper blaring "SO INHUMANE" on the front page and the police chief lamenting: "We no longer have a moral compass." "We have no regard for each other," said Chief Daryl Roberts, who on Wednesday released the video in hopes of making an arrest in the accident that left Angel Arce Torres in critical condition. Continues ******* When Jesus disciples asked Jesus to tell them the sign of thy coming, and the end of the world in Matthew's Gospel Chapter 24, one of the signs that Jesus gave was:
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. Matthew 24:12
Paul also wrote to Timothy of the horrible condition of humanity that would prevail upon the earth in the last days:
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good.Traiters, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. II Timothy 3:1-4 Sounds like what we are seeing all around us today.
We are seeing all of the signs that Jesus spoke in Matthew 24 would occur, accelerating as we come to the end of the age before His return, and we are heading for great tribulation. How much longer will God allow the sinful condition in humanity we are now witnessing before Jesus returns no one knows. We do know that God is a merciful God and is not willing that any should perish. "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance." II Peter 3:9
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
Romans 10:9-10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
