Well I've been off for awhile. Some two weeks after taking a "leave of absence" for my son's wedding and just to un-wind, I will be blogging again. The wedding was great! I believe both my son and new daughter will make a fine couple and be an example to many young folk on waiting for the "right" one and the blessings of marriage.
So here we go again! Please keep me in your prayers as we shall endeavor to share, comment, and hopefully impart true through the medium of the Internet. In addition to my blog you can catch my Internet radio broadcasts "The Blood Speaks" on Talkshoe (http://www.talkshoe.com)Monday's from 10:15 to 10:45 A.M. and BlogTalk Radio (http://www.blogtalkradio.com) Tuesday's from 10:30 to 11:00 A.M. Also check out my website at http://speakingthewordoffaith.weebly.com
Blessings!

Vacation?
I am taking a "vacation" from the blog this week..really just haven't posted anything last Monday, and may not next Monday June 14 because I will be returning from Pennsylvania and the wedding celebration of my son, my only begotten son, Benjamin and his lovely bride Ms. Johneane Latham.
I will have the honor of uniting them in covenant, not just marriage. It is sad and very unfortunate that the covenant relationship of joining a man (Ish) with his wife (Isha) has been so degraded into what is now called the "institution" of marriage, or perceived as a contract or business arrangement..it is a shame!
The LORD God created marriage and the covenant relationship between man and woman based on the God kind of love He gave man when He created them, male and female. Even by the time of Christ, the covenant of marriage was in trouble...Christ said that Moses had given the "bill of divorcement", but from the beginning this was not so.
I have taught my son the meaning of covenant and marriage; I will continue now sharing that with him and his wife. It is my prayer that as he sees how I walk in covenant with my "Isha" Carol, the apple of my eye, that he duplicates and actually perfects this union evermore. If the Lord tarry, what and how he walks will carry on to the next generations!
Peace.

2012: The Final Call 3
Two weeks ago we began “blogging” about the Mayan prophecy of 2012 being the year when the world would end. We placed the Mayan prediction against the Word of God and began to examine what the Bible has to say, and has said about the end of the world. As stated last time, I have yet to see the 2012 movie, but believe that any “prophecy” outside the Word of God is suspect and/or questionable at the least and at the worse a flat out lie. The Apostle John, who among all of the New Testament writers and many of the Old Testament could be argued that he knew a thing or two about prophecy, writes to us to beware or be aware of false prophets saying that many of them had gone out into the world…even in his time…some 2000years ago.
The Apostle John was the writer of the book of Revelation, or as it is called in some old Bible’s, the Apocalypse! As he opens the book, John says that the “revelation” of Jesus Christ was given unto Him by God to show unto His servant’s things which must shortly come to pass. We know the true test of any prophet, prophecy, word, message, etc. if it is from God it will come to pass…exactly at the time, exactly in the place, and exactly with the person, or persons it was spoken of or too. The 200 plus prophecies concerning the First Advent of Jesus Christ came to pass right down to the Virgin Birth, the town He was born in, the house He belonged to, the tribe He came from, etc.
The Lord Himself gives us some very definite pre-cursors and signs of the end times. From the Synoptic Gospel’s of Matthew, Mark, and Luke we can list:
1. Deception
2. False Christ’s
3. Wars and the rumors of wars
4. Riots/Violence/Uprisings
5. Famines
6. Pestilences
7. Earthquakes
8. Distress of nations
9. Troubles
10. Fearful signs on earth/great signs in heaven
11. Afflictions
12. Persecutions
13. Hatred of Christians
14. Offenses by Christians on Christians
15. False Prophets
16. Iniquity abounding/love of many going cold
17. Gospel preached/published into all the world
18. The Abomination of Desolation
More to come...
