Hearing Moses

Moses Said: Psalm 90

Moses said "Threescore & Ten" would be the years of man...
He'd seen the Burning Bush, and heard directly from I AM.
He only wrote this single psalm, we might have passed it by,
But since he lived to sixscore, we stopped to wonder "Why?".

Moses said "Threescore & Ten"; We knew a score was twenty,
The fifty years he lived beyond, we realized was plenty..
Now 20 centuries are gone, and 10 are yet ahead..
Since Jesus died at Calvary and they counted him as dead.

Moses prayed we'd learn to count the number of our days,
And how a thousand years compares, in reckoning the ways.
The "Day" of Rest is almost here: Millennium No. 7,
Six Days for Man are near complete: Time to go to heaven!

Moses said we had a choice: he advised that we choose Life..
To serve the mighty God of Love, and reject the wicked strife.
He lived to see two Jubilees; to glimpse the promised land,
Back then it wasn't time to go; there was more to understand.

Moses said we ought to hear, a prophet much like him...
Sure enough, both babies came to deliver all from sin.
One floated down the river, the other as bread from above,
God wanting us to comprehend personification of love.

Moses prayed for the people, when serpents and fire consumed,
Jesus prayed in the garden, when the death of Calvary loomed.
These two were true! If I were you, I wouldn't wait another day..
Get right with God--Be Scripture shod, and then begin to pray!

Evidence for Christianity

The Evidence for Christianity.. -- these 4 points 'for starters'.. 6/23/12

1. BookEnds. Many have judged the Bible based on their casual read of some or a few of the books (and usually judged wrong IMO), but I'm convinced that all 66 books must be read and studied. Then, comparing Genesis to Revelation, we begin to see many common threads which argues against multiple authors, and against the ideas from before the Bible was published, (but FOR the Trinitarian Holy Ghostwriter, 2Pet1:21), and his purpose in "leading us into all truth", John 16:13.

2. Tropes. The Confounding of the Language in Gen11:7 leads to the 'speaking in an unknown tongue' in Acts2. Multiple allegories and figures of speech are involved, in Bibles from many countries, yet they all tell of Adam & Eve "having their eyes opened" by 'eating', as though they were newborn puppie dogs. (The inference is that we'll 'get our eyes opened' by reading the Word of God -- by 'eating' Jesus).

The multiple metaphors used for God, Jesus, Satan, the Saints, etc, add perplexity and ambiguity, just as a mystery author like Ellery Queen leaves out details until the closing chapters. (Don't know about E.Q. faith personally, but see humanity as a very diverse species having great imagination and 'gifts')

3. Patterns. Starting with the 'powers of 3' in the alignment of 39+27, we see many Number patterns (incl. Gen41:32 & Dan8:13). The 2K period from Adam to Moses; followed by a 2K period of the LAW for the Jew, and a 2K period for the Gentile, fits the pattern of 'Six days for Mankind', when a thousand years are as one day, 2Pet3:8. This pattern also fits the 'infant/children/adult' stage of LIFE, and the Two Covenants of Gal 4:24 get their due respect, or highlight.

4. Sowing/Reaping. It's clear to me that Jesus was the Seed sown at Calvary for the purpose of raising Sons (not referring to Leaven here..), and how all that agrees with God being a 'husbandman' (as well as a husband), who 'planted Jesus in the womb and tomb' just as Joseph in Egypt planted his personal cup in his brother Benjamin's sack.
It doesn't stop there (tho I'm going to..), but God planted a garden in Genesis, and He plans a harvest in Revelation, and for me: that's Gospel!

Arks Ahoy !

Arks Ahoy!

1. That first Ark carried the animals and Noah family – why did they call it an Ark, I wondered? I’d have called it a BOAT, or maybe a floating barge or barn

2. The second Ark also traveled on the water, carrying baby Moses down the River Nile. More like a sea going baby-buggy, I thought, but still called ‘Ark’ in Exodus 2:3.

3. The third Ark (of Testimony) was built in the desert, a long way from water, and was carried on the shoulders of the Levites.


Ex:25:10 “And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 25:11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about”.

This third Ark finally reached the Jordan River, led by Joshua, 3:13, but just as the feet of the priests got wet, the water divided and they had to carry it further yet. Did they wonder if all that gold would make it too heavy to float? And 3 objects were carried inside: the Tablets, the Manna, and the Rod that budded, all went along for the ride! Heb9:4

4. Not a ‘boat’, and not called an Ark, but the Virgin Mary was a ‘container’ of the Lord Jesus Christ until that great day when he was birthed in Bethlehem (means ‘house of bread’); in a manger (reminding me how suitable for the Lamb of God). And now when we follow after Galatians 4:19 “My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you”, we may all be considered “ARKS OF TESTIMONY”. Amen?

Smell a Stench ?

Babies having babies - filthy language - School homicides - Drive-by shootings - Dope addicts - Corporate Criminals - Road Rage - Sexual Perverts - identity thieves - Carjackings - Nudity - gang bangs - Cannibalism - Binge drinking - disobedient to parents - liars - thieves -

2Tim3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God..

We've hit the iceberg and this ship is going down! They may talk about recovery, but it's not going to happen -- get ready for a wipe-out of catastrophic proportions. It will begin with a few banks failing and some customers that are no longer able to access their funds. Then those who receive checks from the government will begin to miss them. All these are just the beginning of the calamity to come because of the bo rape of the budget.

The government workers who have enjoyed lavish life-styles at the expense of taxpayers will lose their jobs, and the shoe will be on the other foot, but they're not going to take it 'laying down'. The seeds of anarchy will sprout in the major cities of America when the hunger pangs begin, and when the churches and good-will agencies have been maxed out by the unemployed. Crime will be ever increasing as police and firemen are layed off, and inflation of prices for food and supplies rises to higher and higher levels.

Get ready, America, for desperate days ahead, because you've forsaken the God of the Bible and pursued the atheistic course of selfish, arrogant, and stupid paganism.
